Grain vinegar and citric acid were added while stewing beef leg bone for 12 hrs, and the extraction of calcium, phosphorous, magnesium, amino acid and collagen out of beef leg bone was measured. As the concentration of grain vinegar and citric acid (0, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0%) increased, the amount of calcium, phosphorous and amino acid dissolved out of the leg bone increased compared with the control. Citric acid extracted more calcium, phosphorous, magnesium, amino acid than grain vinegar at the same concentration. But, grain vinegar extracted more collagen than citric acid at 1% concentration. In sensory evaluation, the leg bone stew boiled for 12 hrs with 2% grain vinegar and control were favored greatly compared with the one with citric acid.

Our government has performed to support the nation-wide application of customized fertilizer based on soil-testing results and crop nutrient balance in order to promote the environment-friendly agriculture and to respond the global environment guide-line since 2010. This study was performed at the selected local paddy fields (Hwaseong-si, Uiseong-gun and Miryang-si) with different soil chemical properties in 2012. The contents of amino acids measured showed an increasing trend with fertilization, and glutamic acid was the most abundant amino acid followed by aspartic acid, leucine and alanine. However, valine, isoleusine, tyrosine and lysine were not significantly affected by fertilization. The significant differences in grain N, expressed as a crude protein, and amino acids dose was observed between experimental sites (p<0.001), treatments (p<0.01 to 0.001) and interaction of both factors (p<0.01 to 0.001). In our experiment the following order of carbon skeleton backbones to produce amino acids was observed irrespective of experiment sites and fertilization: ${\alpha}$-ketoglutarate > oxalate > pyruvate > 3-phosphoglycerate > phosphoenolpyruvate. In conclusion, customized fertilizer had no difference in amino acids compared to the conventional-NPK practice which was higher than in no fertilization, and also the normal paddy represented slightly higher amino acids compared to the reclaimed. Further study based on the present results is required to investigate what is main factor to amino acids between genetic and environmental factors.

Amino acid composition in grain of Korean native rice core collections was evaluated to identify the useful genotypes for quality enhancing rice breeding and value-added food development. Large variations were found in the contents of 16 amino acids among 388 genotypes tested with 14.9% of the minimum coefficient of variation (CV), and the contents of methionine and histidine showed the highest CV and the second high, respectively. The average values of total amino acid, total essential amino acid, lysine and threonine contents of Korean native rice collections were almost similar with those of cultivating japonica rice, Saechucheong. Among 388 native core collections Baekkokna, Daesona and Saducho were identified as high amino acid germplasm in total amino acid, total essential amino acid, lysine and threonine contents. And Seoksanjo and Sodujo were identified as low amino acid collections. Rice collections showing purple apiculus color tended to distribute in lower serine, proline, glutamic acid, glycine, alanine, valine, leucine, phenylalanine, arginine, and total amino acid contents compared with those of yellowish apiculus color collections. The glutinous rice collections showed the tendency of higher contents of serine, glutamic acid, alanine, valine and leucine compared with those of non-glutinous collections.

Brewer's spent grain (BSG) is a waste product of the beer industry, and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a physiologically active substance important for brain and neuron physiology. In this study, we used the bacterial strains Bacillus velezensis DMB06 and B. licheniformis 0DA23-1, respectively, to ferment BSG and produce GABA. The GABA biosynthesis pathways were identified through genomic analysis of the genomes of both strains. We then inoculated the strains into BSG to determine changes in pH, acidity, reducing sugar content, amino-type nitrogen content, and GABA production, which was approximately doubled in BSG inoculated with Bacillus compared to that in uninoculated BSG; however, no significant difference was observed in GABA production between the two bacterial strains. These results provide the experimental basis for expanding the use of BSG by demonstrating the potential gain in increasing GABA production from a waste resource.

The study investigated the effect of rice particle size on the physicochemical properties of soybean porridge prepared at different pH. Redness, yellowness and viscosity of soybean porridge increased according to the rice particle size. Protein content of soybean porridge was increased 2-fold, compared to that of rice porridges. Total amino acid content of soybean porridge was 1,821.2 mg/100 g and that of rice was 1,719.1 mg/100 g. Lysine and threonine contents of limited amino acid of soybean porridge were increased. Half grain rice soybean porridge exhibited the highest sensory scores. The results indicated that half grain size soybean porridge is preferred, both physicochemically and nutritionally.

The amino acid compositions of polished barley grain were investigated for 16 varieties by using amino acid autoanalyzer and simple correlation analysis between them and between protein and amino acid per protein was done. 1) Limiting amino acid is lysine, leucine and phenylalanine are high but threonine and tyrosine are low. Total essential amino acids is high. 2) Protein is significantly correlated negatively with lysine arginine, total basic amino acids (at p=0.01) and threonine, alanine, aspartic acid (at p=0.05) and positively with phenylalanine (at p=0.01) proline and cystine (at p=0.05). 3) Lysine is positively and significantly correlated with arginine and aspartic acid indicating that aspartic acid is probable precursor of lysine and that high yielding varieties or fertilization for high yielding decrease aspartic acid pool resulting low lysine. 4) Lysine content is positively correlated with dye binding capacity (at p=0.01). 5) Tryptophan is positively (at p=0.01) and significantly correlated with histidine, total basic amino acids and arginine. 6) In essential amino acids lysine, tryptophan, threonine and valine simultaneously increase or decrease while aromatic amino acids, sulfur contained amino acids, isoleucine and leucine do so together.

Objective: The present study aimed to evaluate the influence of including L-glutamine along with glutamic acid as a supplement in weaned piglets' diets with and without whey powder. Methods: Two assays were carried out. A total of 40 piglets ([Landrace×Large White]×Pietrain) weaned at 24 days of age with an initial body weight of 6.6±0.6 kg were used in the first assay, and the following parameters were evaluated: growth performance, the incidence of diarrhea, morphometry, intestinal integrity, and hepatic glycogen index. The animals were then blocked into four groups according to different diets: diet all-grain feeding (G); diet all-grain feeding with whey powder (GW); and with vs without 1% supplementation of the commercial product containing L-glutamine and glutamic acid (A or NA). Whey powder was added according to the stage of life, corresponding to 17%, 10%, and 5%, respectively, in order to meet the need for lactose. The animals were evaluated at 24 to 42 days and at 24 to 55 days of age. The nutrient digestibility for the second assay was carried out by using 24 animals with an average weight of 11.49±1.6 kg, and the same diets were tested. Results: The supplementation of L-glutamine + glutamic acid or the addition of whey powder in diets for weaned piglets provided (p<0.05) greater feed intake, greater weight gain and improved feed conversion in the initial period (24 to 42 days age). However, in the whole period (24 to 55 days age) only amino acid supplementation affected (p<0.05) growth performance. There was a positive interaction (p<0.05) between the type of diet and L-glutamine + glutamic acid supplementation on villus height, crypt depth and the villus:crypt ratio in the duodenum. In addition, L-glutamine + glutamic acid supplementation reduced (p<0.05) the crypt depth and improved the villus:crypt ratio in the jejunum. The inclusion of whey powder affected (p<0.05) positively the digestibility coefficients analyzed except mineral matter digestibility coeficients. The supplementation of 1% the commercial product composed of L-glutamine and glutamic acid improved (p<0.05) only the digestibility coefficient of crude protein. Conclusion: These results indicate that supplementation of 1% commercial product containing L-glutamine + glutamic acid in diets for piglets from 24 to 55 days of age, dispenses with the use of whey powder when evaluating growth performance. Amino acid supplementation alone or associated with whey powder affects (p<0.05) positively the indicators of the intestinal integrity.

Three kinds of soy sauce were prepared using the brick type of conventional meju (A), the brick type of meju of Aspergillus oryzae (B), and the grain type of meju of Aspergillus oryzae (C) in summer. Free amino acids were analyzed in according to aging time of those products. Findings are as follows. Lysine, histidine, serine, glycine, valine, methionine, and phenylalanine were detected in all kinds of soy sauce at the beginning preparation. Aspertic acid, glutamic acid, alanine, threonine, arginine, and leucine were detected during 90 days. Isoleucine and tyrosine were detected during 180 days. Lysine and histidine were shown higher content among the detected free amino acids. The each content of glutamic acid, aspartic acid, and methionine was decreased in passing the aging time. The total content of free amino acids was shown 3,559-4,119 mg/100 ml at the 180 days. The total content of free amino acids of soy sauce C was higher than that of other soy sauces.
