This study is performed to investigate the quality characteristics of sulgidduk added with cheonnyuncho fruit powder. Sulgidduk was prepared with freeze-dried cheonnyuncho, rice flour, sugar syrup and salt. The sulgidduk was made with various amounts (0, 3, 6, 9, 12%) of added cheonnyuncho fruit powder. The proximate composition, pH, Hunter's color value, texture profile analysis, sensory characteristics and SEM of cheonnyuncho sulgidduk were being examined. The addition of cheonnyuncho fruit powder has a tendency to decrease the moisture contents of sulgidduk while the crude ash, crude lipid and crude protein increased. The pH of sulgidduk decreased when the amounts of cheonnyuncho fruit powder increased. As the amount of cheonnyuncho fruit powder increased, the lightness (L) decreased, while the redness (a) and yellowness (b) increased. In texture profile analysis, the hardness decreased with increasing cheonnyuncho fruit powder contents, whereas cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess and brittleness increased. The results of sensory evaluation showed that the sulgidduk with 3%, 6% of cheonnyuncho fruit powder got the highest scores on the color, taste, springiness and acceptability. The air cells of sulgidduk observed by SEM were big and uniform with the amount of cheonnyuncho fruit powder increased. In conclusion, these results show that the quality and preference increased when 3%, 6% of cheonnyuncho fruit powder was added to the sulgidduk.

Results from an innovative approach to improve remediation in the rhizosphere by encouraging healthy plant growth and thus enhancing microbial activity are reported. The effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (Am) on remediation efficacy of wheat, mungbean and eggplant grown in soil spiked with polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) was assessed in a pot experiment. The results of this study showed that Am inoculation enhanced dissipation amount of PAHs in planted soil, plant uptake PAHs, dissipation amount of PAHs in planted versus unplanted spiked soil and loss of PAHs by the plant-promoted biodegradation. A number of parameters were monitored including plant shoot and root dry weight, plant tissue water content, plant chlorophyll, root lipid content, oxido-reductase enzyme activities in plant and soil rhizosphere and total microbial count in the rhizospheric soil. The observed physiological data indicate that plant growth and tolerance increased with Am, but reduced by PAH. This was reflected by levels of mycorrhizal root colonization which were higher for mungbean, moderate for wheat and low for eggplant. Levels of Am colonization increased on mungbean > wheat > eggplant. This is consistent with the efficacy of plant in dissipation of PAHs in spiked soil. Highly significant positive correlations were shown between of arbuscular formation in root segments (A)) and plant water content, root lipids, peroxidase, catalase polyphenol oxidase and total microbial count in soil rhizosphere as well as PAH dissipation in spiked soil. As consequence of the treatment with Am, the plants provide a greater sink for the contaminants since they are better able to survive and grow.

The longitudinal changes in protein secretion from 27 lactating women(primiparae = 10, multiparae=17) and protein intake of infants have been studied from 0.5 to 6 months postpartum in Chungju and Anseong area. The protein contents o breast milk in primiparae appeared significantly higher than in multipaae at 0.5 and 1 month postpartum. The protein secretion of primiparae and multiparae was not significantly different. In breast-feeding period, there was a tendency that protein secretion from 0.5 to 2 months postpartum was higher than thereafter. Average protein intake of boys from milk from 0.5 to 6 months postpartum was significantly higher than that of girls(p<0.05), because volume of milk intake of boys was much more than that of girls. In the amount of protein intake per infant weight, there was no significant difference between boys and girls. Protein intakes per infant weight decreased during lactation. Mean energy consumption of lactating women was 2,327㎉/day, which was 93.1% of recommended energy allowance for Koreans. Mean dietary protein consumption of lactating women was 81g/day, which was 101.3% of recemmended protein allowance for Koreans. Energy ratio of carbohydrate : protein : lipid was appeared to 68.8 : 13.9 : 17.3.

The present study was carried out to examine the changes in functional properties of cholesterol-removed compound whipping cream made by $\beta$-CD treated cream and palm oil. Six different ratios of cream to palm oil (10:0 as control, 9:1, 8:2, 7:3, 6:4, and 5:5, v/v) were tested. The overrun percentage increased with an increased amount of palm oil. When the ratio of cream to palm oil was 10:0 (control), the overrun was 130%, which was significantly lower than other ratios reached to 150%. Foam instability was measured as 3.1 ml defoamed cream in control, however, the value of foam instability decreased with an increase of palm oil addition. The TBA value of cholesterol-removed compound whipping cream increased from 0.08 to 0.13 with no addition of palm oil during 4 wk storage. When the ratio of cream to palm oil was 5:5, TBA value increased dramatically at 3 wk and thereafter. Among sensory characteristics, texture value increased with higher amount of palm oil, however, flavor and overall preferences were opposite. Above results indicated that partial substitution of palm oil in manufacture of cholesterol-removed compound whipping cream resulted in a stable foam development with little adverse effect on flavor and lipid oxidation during storage. The present study showed a possible application in manufacture of cholesterol-removed compound whipping cream, which may be effective in other foods.

Ten college women were divided into 5 groups and treated in randomized block design for 5 weeks with 1 interval between treatments and subjects serving as their own controls. The experimental diets were corn oil diet as a source of n-6 linoleic acid, perilla oil diet as a source of n-3 $\alpha$-linolenic acid, and fish oil diet as a source of n-3 EPA and DHA. Dietary fat was supplied at 30% Cal and modified to give the total amount of saturated fatty acids and monoenoic acids at constant level. There was no significant effect on serum cholesterol level by different PUFA. However, on a gram-for-gram basis, there was a trend that the decrease in serum cholesterol was proportionate to the degree of fat unsaturation. On the other hand, only fish oil diet significantly decreased TG level but no significant effect on the relative proportion of TG in VLDL. The degree of hypotriglyceridemia did not corrleate with the degree of unsaturation. The relative proportion of CE in LDL was reduced by all PUFA diets but significant only by perilla oil diet. The relative amount of apoprotein in LDL was significantly reduced by n-3 PUFA. HDL-Chol content was significantly increased only in fish oil diet but no change in the relative proportion of its chemical components of HDL.

The effects of the amount of red pepper intake per a day on the capsaicin threshold, nutrient intake, and anthropo-metric measurements were investigated in 100 female students of university. Three 24-hour recalls were performed to estimate usual nutrient and red pepper intake of free-living participants. The solutions containing capsaicin at concentration of 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5ppm used for the evaluation of hot-taste detection threshold. Subjects were asked to recognize the burning sensation after tasting l0ml of each test solution in ascending order of capsaicin concentrations. Mean intake of red pepper was 4.6 g/d and the capsaicin threshold was 0.27 ppm. The detection threshold for capsaicin was correlated with the amount of pepper intake per a day. Red pepper intake was correlated with energy, protein, lipid, carbohydrate, Iron, vitamin A, vitamin B$_2$ niacin, and vitamin E intakes. However, it was not correlated with intake of calcium, vitamin B$_1$ or vitamin C. The red pepper intake was negatively correlated with fat mass and waist girth and the capsaicin threshold was also negatively correlated with pulse. In conclusion, red pepper intake was associated with nutrient intake and capsaicin threshold whereas it was negatively correlated with fat mass and waist girth.

$Stealth^{\circledR}$ liposomes entrapped with streptokinase were prepared to improve the physical stability of conventional liposomes. The particle size distribution, dissolution rate and entrapping efficiency of the $Stealth^{\circledR}$ liposomes were studied. The entrapping efficiency of streptokinase into conventional liposomes was proportional to the total lipid and cholesterol amounts. In $Stealth^{\circledR}$ liposomes, the entrapping efficiency of streptokinase was increased with the increase of DPPE-PEG(5,000) amount. The particle size of $Stealth^{\circledR}$ liposomes decreased with the increase of DPPE-PEG(5,000) amount. The dissolution rate of streptokinase from conventional liposomes was decreased by addition of cholesterol. The dissolution rate of streptokinase from the $Stealth^{\circledR}$ liposomes was also decreased by addition of DPPE-PEG(5,000).

Poloxamer-based hydrogel formulation for the topical delivery of ascorbic acid(AsA) was prepared and the effect of limonene on AsA skin permeation and localization was evaluated. In vitro rat skin permeation study, the AsA skin permeation of limonene-containing hydrogel was about 3 to 5 fold higher than control hydrogel. However the amount of permeated AsA was independent to the concentration of limonene. On the other hand the localized amount of AsA after 2 h increased proportion to the content of limonene. The increase in the ratio of localized AsA($Q_L$) to permeated AsA($Q_P$) was attributed to the limonene's ability of making polar pathway within stratum corneum by interacting on lipid domain of the skin and the AsA's hydration effect on the stratum corneum and effect on the protein domain of the skin.

Precolumn orthophthaldehyde (OPA) labeling method of sphingoid bases, sphingosine and sphinganine, was investigated to obtain high fluorescent detectability. In order to improve the fluorescent yield, we investigated the optimal solubility of sphingoid bases for five pre-incubation solvents by incorporating the heating procedure before OPA derivatization. The pre-incubation in ethanol prominently increased the fluorescent peak height of OPA derivative for each sphingoid bases in high performance liquid chromatography. About tenfold increase of detectability was archived by pre-incubating lipid extracts pellets in ethanol at $60^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. Optimal derivatization was performed in 30 min at ambient temperature and the fluorescent intensity of OPA derivative was stable for two weeks at $4^{\circ}C$. The detection limit of sphingosine was 0.1 pmol as injected amount. This method was applied to the determination of cellular sphingosine and sphinganine in various human lung cancer cells. This OPA procedure was prospective to be useful for quantitating the amount of sphingoid bases in other cancer cells.
