In this study, medium-chain fatty acid (MCFA) metabolized in the liver for quick energy and CLA exhibited biological activity were used for synthesis of structured lipids (SLs). SLs were synthesized by acidolysis of soybean oil, capric acid (C10:0) and CLA with Chirazyme L-2 lipase as biocatalysts. The effect of enzyme load (2, 4, 6, 8, 10% w/w substrates) was investigated. Production of SL (scale-up) was performed with a 1:2:2 molar ratio (oi1/C10:0/CLA) for 24 h at 55$^{\circ}C$ in a stirred batch reactor (420 rpm). The reaction was catalyzed by Chirazyme L-2 lipase (24.48g, 4％ w/w substrates). The scale-up result showed that capric acid and total CLA were incorporated 4.9%, 4.1% (mole%), respectively, in soybean oil. Then, physio-chemical property and flavor characteristic of produced SL-soybean oil were analyzed. Therefore, SL-soybean oil containing C10:0 and CLA was successfully synthesized and may be beneficial in desirable food and nutritional applications.

Purpose: This study analyzed and compared the physico-chemical and affective properties between mackerels cooked by an electric pan and under superheated steam. Methods: Mackerel were cooked by an electric pan ($95^{\circ}C$) for 10 min and mackerel cooked under superheated steam ($250^{\circ}C$) for 5 min to be internal temperatures of $75{\pm}5^{\circ}C$ and tests to measure proximate composition, color values, texture profiles, microorganism counts and sensory acceptance were performed. Results: The moisture contents were 60.30% and 73.81% in mackerels cooked by electric pan and under superheated steam, respectively. The rate of weight loss in mackerel cooked by electric pan was 39%, whereas it was 29% in mackerel cooked under superheated steam. Mackerel cooked under superheated steam exhibited more yellowness, higher springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, and resilience with more acceptable preferences (appearance, odor, taste, and texture) compared to the mackerel cooked by electric pan. Conclusion: The application of superheated steam technology to fish products could reduce the cooking time and nutritional loss. Also, it could produce highly preferred fish products compared to that prepared by conventional electric pan.

Semi-dried restructured sausages are restructured meat products with a high nutritional and economic value. However, excessively long drying times can have negative effects on the energy consumption, texture, and sensory properties of semi-dried restructured sausages. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of different water contents on the drying and physicochemical characteristics of semi-dried restructured sausages. Sausages were prepared with different initial moisture contents (0%-50%) and drying time (0-580 min). The drying characteristics, including the drying rate, effective moisture diffusivity, and water activity of sausage were significantly improved as the initial moisture content was increased. When the initial moisture content of the sausage was 50%, physicochemical properties, such as color, porosity, shear force, and volatile basic nitrogen, were improved the most along with the decreased drying time. Scanning electron microscopy data showed greater porosity and pore size in sausages with the increase of initial moisture content. Collectively, our data suggest that an increase in the initial moisture content of semi-dried restructured sausages improves their drying characteristics and physicochemical properties.

This study evaluated the microbial, nutritional, and rheological changes in potatoes, during storage at room, low, and freezing temperatures for 6 months. No significant changes in total aerobic plate counts were observed for any of the samples in the assessment of microbiological quality changes. For the 4 types of frozen potatoes, yeasts and molds were not found until 24 weeks. The sugar contents of the potatoes stored at room and low temperature ($10^{\circ}C$) increased during the first 4 weeks of storage, but then decreased rapidly thereafter; while those in the frozen potatoes did not change significantly throughout the 48 weeks. The vitamin C, B1, and B2 contents of the potatoes stored at room and low temperature had decreased significantly after 4 weeks of storage, however, the levels in the frozen potatoes did not change rapidly. The weight, volume, and hardness of the frozen potatoes changed much less as compared to the potatoes stored at room and low temperature over the 48 weeks of storage. Finally, the cohesiveness of all the samples, except for the frozen mashed potatoes, did not change during storage.

Two bacterial strains, Bacillus licheniformis YB-1413 and YB-1414, producing extracellular α-galactosidase, were obtained from homemade Doenjang. On the basis of their biochemical properties, 16S rRNA sequences and random amplified polymorphic DNA patterns by polymerase chain reaction, they were found to be somewhat different from one another. α-Galactosidase productivities of the two isolates were increased by wheat bran, but drastically decreased by melibiose, raffinose and sucrose which were used as carbon sources. The enzyme productivities were increased by yeast extract as a nitrogen source with maximum levels of 1.87 U/ml for YB-1413 and 1.69 U/ml for YB-1414, respectively. The enzymes of both isolates exhibited maximum activity for hydrolysis of para-nitrophenyl-α-D-galactopyranoside (pNP-αGal) under reaction conditions of pH 6.0 and 45℃. Their hydrolyzing activities for pNP-αGal were drastically decreased by the addition of low concentrations of ribose and galactose. They were capable of hydrolyzing completely α-1,6 linked galactosyl residue in melibiose, raffinose and stachyose, which are known to be anti-nutritional factors in products of soybean and legume. In relation to the latter, the isolates YB-1413 and YB-1414 have potential applicability in improving soybean-fermented foods and the nutritional value of soybean feed.

This study was carried out to survey the eating behaviors and the food preferences of the tourism transportation business managers in Daegu areas by age. The survey was performed from 17 to August 25, 2003 by questionnaires and the subjects were 365 males. As a general factor, the subjects of survey were male drivers in their thirties to sixties. Their education level was middle school(44.9%) and high school(45.8%) diploma. This study showed that the managers eat three meals per day with high percentage(75.9%) and a large number of managers(24.1%) eat two meals only. 77.8% of the subjects responded that their diet life were irregular due to the property of their job. Frequency of eating-out turned out to be much higher in managers aged 60 over(p<0.001). They considered taste of the food firstly, and the prices of the food secondly, but the nutritional value of the food was considered with a low percentage(22.7%). We found that their BMI were overweight from 23.5 to 26.01, their calorie and some nutrient intakes were below their RDA. The most insufficiently consumed nutrient(less than 75% of RDA) was vitamin B₂ followed by calcium. The food preferences of subjects showed that the managers preferred boiled rice to any other rice as a staple foods. Their favorite menu of one-course Korean style meal turned out to be the bibimbob(boiled rice mixed with assorted vegetable and meat). As for subsidiary foods, out of all various meat soups, beef soups and beef-rib soups were most preferred. The most preferred stew were soybean paste stew and kimchi stew, and the most preferred cooked vegetables were cooked spinach, seasoned cucumber. Baechu kimchi(white cabbage kimchi) were the most preferred kind of kimchi. For desserts there was a very high preference for the watermelons, apples, and pears. For beverages the most preferred were ginseng tea, fruit juices and dietary fiber drinks. From the results listed above, the nutritional education needed to be done to the tourism transportation business managers to set the proper menu considering the characteristics of the preference each age group of managers.

Nutritional compositions, volatile compounds, and sensory attributes of grilled and fast-chilled mackerel (Scomber japonicus) were analyzed in order to examine its practical utilization as a food resource compared to commercial frozen mackerel. In the proximate analysis, lipid contents were $27.3{\pm}2.7%$ in grilled and fast-chilled mackerel. Palmitic acid was the most predominant fatty acid (20.68% and 18.88%), and the percentages of polyunsaturated fatty acid were higher than 40% in both. No benzopyrene was found in the grilled mackerel, and even grilling was employed at $260^{\circ}C$. For chemical stabilities, para-anisidine value (8.56 vs. 9.26) and acid value (2.96 vs. 3.35) in grilled mackerel were improved compared to those of commercial mackerel. Moreover, color index of grilled mackerel, a physiological property, showed greater lightness than commercial mackerel. Lastly, analysis of volatile compounds by gas chromatographic analysis and sensory tests by trained panels demonstrated higher potential for grilled mackerel as a highly marketable product compared to commercial mackerel. Taken altogether, the above results provide important preliminary results for utilization of grilled and fast-chilled mackerel as a quality food.

To increase the nutritional and economic value of commercial peanut yogurt, a peanut yogurt was prepared by 12% skim milk added defatted peanut powder(DPP). The proximate compositions of DPP were moisture 2.3%, crude protein 31.39%, crude lipid 38.84, ash 2.89% and carbohydrate 24.58, respectively. The yogurt product were evaluated for acid production(pH, titratable acidity), number of viable cell, viscosity, color, quality-keeping property and sensory property. By addition of 5% and 10% DPP, the titratable acidity of yogurt was higher than that of yogurt not added DPP. The propagation of lactic acid bacteria was stimulated by adding 5% DPP, and the number of viable cells were about 8.9 log cfu/ml. On the other hand, the number of viable cells in control were 8.3 log cfu/ml. Viscosity of yogurt made from adding 5% and 10% DPP was higher than that of yogurt with only skim milk. When yogurt added with DPP was kept for 15 days at 5$^{\circ}C$ its quality-keeping was relatively good. As the DPP increased, L value(lightness) decreased and a value(redness) increased obviously but the b value(yellowness) of 5% peanut yogurt increased and 10% and 15% again decreased. The overall sensory scores of yogurts added with DPP showed lower than that of yogurt with only skim milk.

The objective of this study was carried out to investigate nutritional characteristics and biological activities effects of Korean leaf of Rosa davurica Pall. in vitro. They were extracted with methanol and then further fractionated to n-hexane, chloroform, ethyl-acetate, n-butanol and water from methanol extracts. Methods of the antigenotoxic used in this experiment were UVA/UVB absorption property and DPPH radical scavenge. The proximate compositions of leaves of Rosa dauvrica Pall were 67.5％ of crude Moisture, 0.7％ of crude fat, 6.8％ of crude protein, 6.1％ of crude ash, and 20.8％ of crude fiber. The major minerals were K (1637.2 mg％), Ca (219.5 mg％), P (182.1 mg％), and Mg (135.1 mg％). Most of the fractions of methanol extract which leaves of Rosa dauvrica Pall. have strong absorbency at UVB region (308 nm) and UV A region (350nm). These fractions have a good absorbency property as synthetic filter and could be served as substitutes for synthetic UV sunscreen agents. All fractions (n-hexane, ethyl-acetate, n-butanol and water) from methanol extracts except chloroform fraction exhibited DPPH radical scavenging activity with IC$\_$50/ of 35.3, 6.0, 14.0, and 18.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL.
