This study investigated the anti-oxidation activities of fresh Codonopsis lanceolata Traut (Benth et Hook) and red beans, and also the quality properties of fresh Codonopsis lanceolata Yanggaeng to which raw Codonopsis lanceolata Traut (Benth et Hook) was added. The DPPH free radical scavenging activities of fresh Codonopsis lanceolata Traut (Benth et Hook) and red beans were 31.42% and 37.98%, respectively. Thus, that of red beans was rather the total polyphenol contents of fresh Codonopsis lanceolata Traut (Benth et Hook) and red beans were 5.74 mg/g and 4.14 mg/g respectively, and the total flavonoid contents of fresh Codonopsis lanceolata Traut (Benth et Hook) and red beans were 5.07 mg/g and 1.29 mg/g respectively. As higher amounts of Codonopsis lanceolata Traut (Benth et Hook) were added to Yanggaeng, the water content in the Yanggaeng continued to increase. Preferences were in the following order: 21%>12%>28%>7%>0%, and it was found that the optimal level for addition of fresh Codonopsis lanceolata Traut (Benth et Hook) was between 12% and 21%. It was also shown that adjusting the amount of ingredients or agar would improve the product quality.

These studies were conducted to clarify the effects of sowing date on seed quality characters in soybean-sprouts. Six sprout-soybean cultivars were planted on three sowing dates in 2000 and 2001. Percentages of purple spot seed stain, seed coat-cracking and immatured seeds were higher in the May 25 sowing than later sewings. Pungsannamulkong showed the lowest percentages of seed coat-cracking and immatured seeds, while Hannamkong showed the highest percentages. The protein contents decreased as the sowing dates were delayed. Tawonkong and Pungsannamulkong showed the highest protein content on May 21 and June 15 sewings, and on July 5 sowing, respectively. The oil contents was not affected by the sowing dates, however, Somyeongkong and Tawonkong showed the highest and the lowest oil contents, respectively. The aglycone contents of isoflavone were the highest in the lune 15 sowing followed by July S sowing and May 25 sowing in that order. Somyeongkong showed the highest contents of isoflavone and aglycone, while Tawonkong showed the lowest contents.

Fig(Ficus carica L.) which belongs to Moraceae family has been used as digestion promoter, cure for ulcerative inflammation and eruption in Korea. Figs have very short preservation period and can be kept only 1 week even in the refrigeration system. The possibility of wine-making from Korean figs was tested by analyzing the fermentation characteristics, proximate analysis and free sugar contents of wine made of slices with 20% sugar addition. Ethanol fermentation of the figs by Saccharomyces cerevisiae was done rapidly. The ethanol contents, pH, total acidity and sugar content were 12.1%, 3.91, 0.42% and 9.9 °Brix, respectively. The results from the sensory evaluation were as follows. The wine made from the sliced figs were better than that from fig juices in their sensory scores. The wine made with frozen figs was not different from that made with fresh ones. To improve the quality of wine, the addition of dried leaf powder in the concentration of 100 ppm were tried and found it was superior to the one made without leaf.

Milling qualities and indigestible carbohydrate fractions (ICF) depending on harvesting time of Goami2 (G2), mutant of Ilpum (IP) rice, was examined. Fifty days after heading (DAH) maximized head rice milling quality (57.69%) and ICF content ($5.09{\pm}0.36\;g/100\;g$). ICF contents and physical properties of G2 and IP at 50 DAH were compared. ICF of G2 was three times higher than that of IP ($1.61{\pm}0.09\;g/100\;g$). Parboiling treatment increased ICF of G2 to $7.18{\pm}0.16\;g/100\;g$. G2 showed lower water absorption index, which could lower pasting properties, but higher water solubility index, implying it contains more soluble components. Texture properties of G2 were different from those of IP, showing higher hardness, and lower adhesiveness and cohesiveness. Positive correlation was observed between ICF and hardness, but reverse correlation between ICF and cohesiveness.

Jungkwa is a traditional Korean dessert preserved in honey or sucrose. This study was carried out to investigate the antioxidant activities and quality characteristics of Rehmannia glutinosa Jungkwa (RJ). RJ was prepared after six repeated cycles of boiling-cooling. After blanching fresh Rehmannia glutinosa (600 g) for 5 min at $100^{\circ}C$, Rehmannia glutinosa was boiled in sucrose syrup (sucrose 720 g in water 600 g) for 60 min and then cooled for 24 hr. Moisture, pH and color values of lightness, redness and yellowness in the Hunter color system of Jungkwa decreased as the number of boiling-cooling cycles increased, whereas acidity, $^{\circ}Brix$ and reducing sugar contents of syrup increased. Total phenol content increased in by the 6th boiling-cooling cycle. Antioxidant activities, including DPPH and hydroxyl radical scavenging activities, increased in RJ by the 6th boiling-cooling cycle. Based on these results, the antioxidant activities of Rehmannia radix Jungkwa was improved according to an increasing number of boiling-cooling cycles due to increased total phenol contents.

The private security will overcome the limit of public police system and implement a small and efficient government concept. Especially in recent years, this security system has naturally been expanded in its functions from crime prevention to prevention of disasters. To manage the emergency by the private security industry, the private security services to involve some peculiarity and specialty. The policy agenda of private security industry for crisis management are suggested. First of all, to provide quality services for emergency management, the guards from private organizations should receive professional education and training to secure the specialty. Second, we need to improve the quality of security instructors with intensive education system for them. Security instructors should be able to effectively handle lots of different matters in the fields of security, but examination of the current curriculum of education for security instructor indicates that there is not much chance of it. Third, must be natural in light that the private organizations have some limitations in their operational capabilities and scopes. Private security duties are well established in cooperation with related institutions such as the police. Lastly, development of high quality crisis management commodities in the private security becomes even more significant. The government should be determined to make an effort to grow the private industry and foster a political environment for the same purpose.

This study investigated the quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of Yanggaeng prepared with various amounts of watermelon radish flesh (WRF) powder, in ratios of 0 (control), 2.5, 5, 7.5, and 10% of the cooked white bean paste. The proximate composition, pH, sugar content, Hunter's color values, texture analysis, and antioxidative activities of Yanggaeng were examined. Increasing the amount of WRF in the Yanggaeng tended to increase the crude ash, carbohydrate, sugar, total polyphenol, total flavonoids, and anthocyanin contents, a value, DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities, with decreasing the moisture and crude protein contents, L and b values, and pH. Texture measurement scores in terms of springiness, chewiness for Yanggaeng showed that 2.5% or 5.0% group was higher than those of the control group. Hardness was higher in the sample groups than in the control group. In conclusion, the results show that Yanggaeng with up to 7.0% added WRF powder can be developed as products, and there is a possibility of developing health functional snack products using WRF powder.

This study was performed to investigate the quality characteristics of noodles made from four different potato varieties: Atlantic, Go-un, Sae-bong, Jin-sun, and wheat flour. Quality characteristics of five noodles were analyzed by general components analysis, cooking quality (rate of water absorption, cooking loss, and volume increase), and mechanical textural properties. Some variations existed in wheat- or potato-based noodles for the general components analysis, but no clear trend was observed. Higher values in the rates of water absorption, cooking loss, and volume increase were observed for the wheat flour noodle, while some variations were observed for potato noodles depending on the variety. The wheat flour noodles exhibited higher values of textural characteristics obtained from the texture profile analysis, except for adhesiveness. Higher gluten contents as well as lower ash contents in the wheat flour noodles compared to the potato noodles are thought to be the two key factors contributing to this finding.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of diets with varying levels of calcium on egg production, shell quality and overall calcium status in aged laying hens. A total of five hundred 70-wk-old Hy-Line Brown layers were divided five groups and fed one of the five experimental diets with 3.5%, 3.8%, 4.1%, 4.4%, or 4.7% Ca, for 10 weeks. There were no significant differences in feed intake, egg production and egg weight among groups. The cracked eggs were linearly reduced as dietary Ca levels increased to 4.7% (p<0.01). A significant linear improvement for eggshell strength and thickness were determined with increasing dietary Ca levels (p<0.01). The contents of serum Ca and phosphorus were not affected by dietary Ca levels. With increase in dietary Ca levels, the tibial breaking strength slightly increased. There were no significant differences in the tibial contents of ash, Ca and phosphorus among groups. In conclusion, eggshell quality, as measured by appearance, strength and thickness of eggshell, were influenced by dietary Ca content as expected (p<0.05). These results suggested that aged laying hens require relatively higher level of Ca than required levels from current Korean feeding standards for poultry.
