In this study, we found that the moisture content of black sesame seeds increased in proportion to steaming time, and it decreased in reverse proportion to the roasting temperature and time. The crude fat and crude ash contents were shown to be in the order of steamed black sesame>raw black sesame and roasted black sesame>raw black sesame, Crude protein decreased in reverse proportion to the steaming time, and more crude protein was found in the raw black sesame samples than in the roasted black sesame samples. The contents of sesamin, sesamolin, and total lignans were shown to be in the order of roasted black sesame>raw black sesame>steamed black sesame. In the steamed black sesame samples, sesamin showed its highest level with 20 minutes of treatment, and sesamolin showed its highest level with 15 minutes of treatment. In the roasted black sesame samples, sesamin, sesamolin, and total lignans showed their highest levels with 15 minutes of treatment at $100^{\circ}C$. The phenolic compound content increased in proportion to steaming time in the steamed samples, and reached a peak after 15 minutes of treatment at $100^{\circ}C$, and then decreased after 20 minutes. SOD-like activity reached a peak after 15 minutes of treatment, and in the roasted sample it reached a peak after 15 minutes of treatment, and then decreased after 20 minutes. SOD-like activity was comparatively lower than tocopherol and higher than sesamol. The intensity of electron donating ability, following 30 minute treatments, was shown to be highest in the steamed black sesame samples after 25 minutes of treatment, and next highest in the roasted black sesame samples after 15 minutes at $100^{\circ}C$. The electron donating ability was comparatively lower than tocopherol and sesamol. With regard to lecithin's antioxidant effects, the steamed samples showed a higher oxidation restriction rate in proportion to time, and the roasted samples showed the highest rate after 15 minutes of treatment, and then decreased after 20 minutes of treatment. for hydroxyl radical scavenging, similar scavenging activity to tocopherol, and comparatively higher scavenging activity than sesamol, was shown in all samples: all samples showed scavenging abilities of 90% or higher. In summary, this study applied three different treatment methods to black sesame to determine the optimum treatment conditions, and also examined the antioxidant effects and functional characteristics. The results showed that roasting can be used for other purposes than producing oil, and also suggested that methods other than roasting can be used in a variety of ways in cooking. Also, the different treatment methods can be applied in cooking in a variety of ways, to enhance functionality and preference.

In order to increase the utilization of defatted sesame meal (DSM), a by-product of sesame oil production, the conditions of extraction of insoluble proteins from DSM by enzyme treatment were investigated. As a result of comparing the treatment results of proteolytic enzymes Alcalase, Flavorzyme, Neutrase, and Protamex with control, Protamex was effective in increasing the total solid and protein content. At the reaction conditions of Protamex (50 ℃, pH 6.0), the dosage of enzymes was appropriate for 1% of DSM and 3 h of enzyme reaction time. To improve the efficiency of enzymatic treatment, the protein content extracted increased as the heat treatment temperature increased, and slightly increased above 110 ℃. As a result of investigating the effect of the combination treatment of cell lytic enzyme (Tunicase) and protease (Protamex) on protein solubilization, it was most effective to treat the cell lytic enzyme after processing the protease. After heat treatment (110 ℃, 10 min), sequential treatment of Protamex and Tunicase increased the protein content by about 3.5 times (9.85→35.58 mg/mL) of the non-heated control and 2.2 times (15.83→35.58 mg/mL) of the heat treated control.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of ingestion of sesame (Sesamum indicum) gruel as a nourishing meal upon the plasma gastrin concentration in normal Korean. Sixteen normal persons with no history of gastrointestinal diseases, including male and female were studied. After an overnight(about 15 hrs) fast, eight persons(mean age: 26.6, range: $20{\sim}40$ years) of them ingested a 350 ml sesame gruel corresponding to 12 g protein, 13 g fat and 99 g carbohydrate, and the remaining 8 subjects(mean age: 21.3, range: $20{\sim}24$ years) ingested a 350 ml glutinous rice gruel(control meal) corresponding to 8 g protein, 1 g fat and 115 g carbohydrate. The venous blood samples were drawn before and after the ingestion of the test meal for the measurement of gastrin by means of radioimmunoassay. 1) Plasma gastrin concentration in response to the ingestion of sesame gruel or glutinous rice gruel increased significantly compared with the concentration in fasting state. 2) Mean increment or percent increment in postprandial plasma gastrin concentration after the ingestion of sesame gruel was not significantly different from that after the control meal, i.e. the glutinous rice gruel. It is inferred from the above results that the ingestion of sesame contained in sesame gruel may have no significant influence on gastrin release in normal human subjects.

In this study, the treatment of $H_2O_2$, papain and acylation on the protein isolate obtained from defatted sesame oil cake for the changes in amino acids composition, color, digestibility and some functional characteristics of this protein were investigated. The results showed that $H_2O_2$, papain and papain $H_2O_2$ treatment increased the rates of the protein extraction and content of protein in protein isolates when those values were compared to the alkali treatment. Also amino acid composition of the protein isolates were comparatively good, and color, and functional properties and pepsin digestibility were markedly improved. The amount of lysine, the first limiting amino acid of this protein was increased. The solubility, bulk density, water absorption, fat absorption and emulsifying properties were remarkably improved while foaming properties and digestibility was slighly decreased.

This study was designed to investigate the effects of roasting temperatures on the antinutritional factors and functional properties of sesame protein isolates. The protein contents a sesame protein isolates (SPI) prepared at roasting temperatures of 5$0^{\circ}C$, 10$0^{\circ}C$, 15$0^{\circ}C$ and 20$0^{\circ}C$ were 65.5%, 66.6%. 68.9% and 64.1%, respectively. Total phenolic compounds, condensed tannin and phytate contents of SPI was increased from 5$0^{\circ}C$ to 20$0^{\circ}C$. From color measurements, higher roasting temperature decreased 'L' and 'b' values significantly, but 'a' value was increased. The bulk density, fat absorption and water absorption of SPI was increased as the temperature of roasting was increased. Sesame protein isolates prepared by roasting at 5$0^{\circ}C$, 10$0^{\circ}C$ and 15$0^{\circ}C$ had higher emulsifying activity than those prepared by roasting at 20$0^{\circ}C$. Foaming capacity of SPI was not changed by roasting up to 10$0^{\circ}C$, but this property was reduced dramatically when roasted at 20$0^{\circ}C$.

These studies were undertaken to investigate changes of major components occuring during germination of sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) seeds, Changes of total lipid and protein contents, and fatty acid composition were determined. Also, the correponding values of various components in cotyledons, hypocotyls and roots were measured according to germination stage. The results were summarized as follows; During germination, total lipid and protein contents decreased. In particular, protein contents rapidly decreased to the 3 days after gemination(DAG), and then total lipid contents rapidly decreased. In changes of total lipid and protein of cotyledons, hypocotyles and roots detected at the 10, 15 and 20 DAG, some variations were determined. The contents of lipid and protein in hypocotyls rapidly decreased, but since than no changes were observed. In contract, in roots similar changes patterns were observed, while since 15 DAG a rapidly increase was wxamined. In fatty acid composition of total lipid ,saturatedmfatty acids such as palmitic acid increased during the germination. On the other hand, unsaturated fatty acid such as olic acid and linoleic acid decreased during the same periods. In changes of fatty acid composition of total lipid of cotyledons, hypocotlys and roots, saturated fatty acids such as palmitic acid and stearic acid increased during the germination. However, linoleic acid decreased during the same germination suggesting that this may be due to the rapid degradation. However, linoleic acid decreased during the same periods. According to SDS-PAGE analysis, there was no detectible polypeptide bands on the gel before seed germination suggesting that this may be due to the rapid degradation of the storage peotein in the mature seed by hydrolytic enzymes during the stag. As germination continued polypeptide bands, one with 40KD, two with 32∼34Kd and one with 24KD, were detected on the gel.

Effect of enzymatic modification with pepsin, papain and trypsin was studied on functional properties of isolated sesame meal protein hydrolysates. Solubility of protein hydrolysates distinctively increased from 2% to $53{\sim}94%$ at pH 4. Emulsifying properties showed marked increase 6 fold and 4.5 fold at degree of 10%, 20% hydrolysis by trypsin and degree of 10% hydrolysis by papain. The emulsion stability of the protein was unstable by heat treatment for 30 min. at $80^{\circ}C$. Foaming properties were also enhanced by enzymatic hydrolysis except at degree of 30% hydrolysis. Bulk density and water absorption of protein with trypsin and papain decreased about 0.1 g/ml and $0.3{\sim}0.7\;ml/g$, but oil absorption was increased about 1 ml/g.
