We investigated the effect of replacing tuna byproduct meal (TBM) and rice bran (RB) with fish meal (FM) and macroalgae (MA) in extruded pellets (EP) supplied as a diet to juvenile Abalone Haliotis duscus in aquaculture. In total, 80,000 juvenile abalone were distributed among eight indoor raceways and supplied with one of four experimental diets. The control diet consisted of FM, fermented soybean meal, corn gluten meal and shrimp meal as protein sources, with wheat flour and dextrin as carbohydrate sources; the control diet also contained MA. In the FM50 diet, TBM was replaced with 50% FM. In the MA 50 diet, RB was replaced with 50% MA. The final diet, FM50+MA50, included TMB and RB in place of 50% FM and 50% MA. Abalone were fed to satiation with little food leftover for 16 weeks. Weight gain and specific growth rate of abalone fed the control diet were greater than those of abalone fed the FM50 and MA50 diets, but not different from those of abalone fed FM50+MA50 diet. The proximate composition of abalone soft body did not vary according to experimental diets. Based on these results, it appears that the traditional commercial diet for juvenile abalone, comprising FM and MA, could be replaced with one containing 50% TBM and 50% RB without any retardation of growth.

This study was designed to determine the apparent digestibility coefficients of soybean meal, soy protein concentrate (SPC), soy protein isolate (SPI), rapeseed meal (RSM), pea protein concentrate (PPC), wheat gluten meal (WGM) and wheat flour (WF) for olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus. A reference diet (RF) was formulated to meet the nutrient requirements of olive flounder with 1% chromic oxide (Cr₂O₃) as an inert indicator. Test diets were prepared to contain 70% RF and 30% of the test ingredient. Olive flounder, averaging 150 ± 8.0 g, was cultured in 400-L fiberglass tanks at a density of 25 fish per tank. Fecal collection columns were attached to each tank. Fecal samples were obtained from triplicate groups of fish for 4 weeks. Dry matter digestibility of SPC (75%) and WGM (76%) were significantly higher than the other test ingredients. Protein digestibility of SPC (85%), PPC (88%) and WGM (89%) were significantly higher than the other test ingredients, and protein digestibility of RSM (77%) and WF (76%) was lower than the other ingredients tested. Lipid digestibility of SPC (72%) and SPI (69%) were significantly higher than the other test ingredients. Energy digestibility of SPC (85%) and WGM (82%) were significantly higher than that of others tested ingredients. The availability of amino acids in WGM was generally higher than in other plant-feed ingredients. Therefore, SPC and WGM were seems to be efficient as potential protein sources for olive flounder compared to other tested ingredients. Overall, findings of the current study may assist in more efficient and economical formulation of diets using plant feed ingredients for olive flounder.

This study was peformed to estimate manganese intake and the major food source of manganese in Korean adults. The 354 subjects aged over 20 years were measured anthropometrics and dietary intake using 24-hour recall method. Daily intake and the major food sources of manganese were calculated using manganese database of food composition tables in Korea, USA and Japan. The average age, height, weight and BMI were 54.6years, 165.7cm, 67.2kg and $24.5kg/m^2$ for men and 53.8 years, 153.7cm, 59.1kg and $24.9kg/m^2$ for women, respectively. The daily energy and manganese intake of men were significantly higher than those of women (1740.9 kcal vs. 1432.6 kcal; p<0.001, 3.7mg vs. 3.2mg; p<0.01). However, daily manganese intake per 1000kcal between men and women was not significantly different (2.2mg/1000kcal vs. 2.3mg/1000kcal). Daily manganese intakes from each food group were 1.9mg from cereals, 0.5mg from vegetables, 0.4mg from pulses and 0.2mg from seasonings. The 20 major food sources of dietary manganese were rice, soybean, sorghum, Kimchi, tobu, wheat flour, red pepper powder, small red bean, glutinous millet, soybean paste, potato, Ramyeon, green pepper, noodle, buckwheat Naengmyeon, soybean sprout, laver, watermelon, perilla seeds powder and soy sauce. Manganese intake from these 20 foods was 74.0% of the total dietary manganese intake. In conclusion, daily manganese intake of the subject was 3.4mg (2.2mg/1000 kcal) and met adequate intake of manganese. The mai or food sources of manganese were cereals, pulses, and vegetables such as rice, soybean, sorghum, Kimchi and tobu.

This study was designed to investigate the feasibility of utilizing concentrates of sunmul(soybean curd whey), the waste by-product of soybean curd processing, as functional food ingredients. Sunmul was concentrated by nanofiltration fo11owing ultrafiltration and then freeze-dried. The oil adsorption capacity of the nanofiltraion(NF) powder(97.33g/100g) was similar to that of sunmul powder(94.17g/100g), but was lower than that of ISP(isolated soy protein). However, the water holding capacity of NF powder could not be determined because the NF powder completely dissolved in water. The protein solubilities of sunmul powder and ISP in distilled H$_{2}$O, 0.1M and 0.5M NaCl were lowest at pH 4.0 and increased at more acidic or alkaline conditions. However, the protein solubility of NF powder was at its minimum at pH 6.0 and increased at more acidic or alkaline conditions. Emulsifying activity indexes of NF powder in 4% and 6% solution were minimal at pH 4.0 and 6.0, respectively, which were 3 to 8 times lower than that of sunmul powder. The emulsion stability of 4% sunmul solution was lowest at pH 4.0, but that of NF powder was highest at pH 5.0 and decreased at more acidic or alkaline conditions at all concentrations of solution. The total free amino acid contents of protein in sunmul, and NF power were 99.07 and 2,110.10mg%, respectively, and NF powder exhibited especially high threonine content. Rapid viscosity analysis of dough with 1 to 5% added NF powder demonstrated that all of the peak and final viscosities decreased with increasing NF powder concentration compared to the control.

This study was conducted to standardize the manufacturing process of doenjang. The preparation methods, kinds and levels of the ingredients were determined by the statistical surveys of literatures obtained from cooking books, scientific papers and doenjang manufacturing factories. The standardized preparation of fermentation methods of doenjang were classified into two large groups, that were traditional and modified (commercialized) methods. Most soybeans used in doenjang preparation were the large size. To prepare traditional doenjang, soybeans were cleaned, scaled and cooked for 2 hrs at atmospheric pressure. These cooked soybeans were crushed in water and molded as brick shape. The molded soybean was dried for 2 days in the air, hung up by rice straw and fermented for 30~60 days under natural environmental condition (called meju). Recently soybean grain meju that inoculated with Asp. oryzae also frequently used to make traditional doenjang. The fermented meju was brined with a ratio of meju : salt : water = 18.4 : 14.6 : 67.0 and the meju-brine mixtures were ripened for 2 months. When the meju-brine mixture was fully fermented, it was separated into liquid and solid parts. The crushed solid part was further ripened in a separated pottery for 60 days and become doenjang. The liquid part was filtered, boiled and used as soy sauce. In modified commercial doenjang preparation, soybeans were cocked by autoclaving and then cooled about to 3$0^{\circ}C$. Separately, steamed barley grains or wheat flour were inoculated with 0.2% Asp. oryzae and incubated for 3 days at 3$0^{\circ}C$ and mixed with the crooked soybeans, salt, and water (soybean : salt : starch : water = 39.8 : 12.5 : 22.6 : 25.1). These mixtures were ripened for 30 days at 3$0^{\circ}C$. It seems that the manufacturing process of traditional doenjang needs to be more industrialized, whereas, the commercial doenjang preparation is going to adapt the traditional processing method of doenjang.

Black soybean paste (BSP) is a bealmijang manufactured with barley flour and black soybeans. This study investigated the quality characteristics of BSP prepared with Bacillus subtilis HJ18-4 (HJ18-4). ${\alpha}$-Amylase and protease activities of BSP rapidly increased on day 6 and day 9, respectively, ($41.45{\pm}0.3-42.72{\pm}0.16$, $21.84{\pm}0.24-23.11{\pm}0.35unit/g$) after which the activities were constant or decreased slightly. Amino type nitrogen contents increased until day 23 ($173.78{\pm}3.51-195.63{\pm}1.51mg\;%$), whereas ammonia type nitrogen sharply decreased on day 9. On day 30, lactic acid bacteria counts were higher compared with the initial count ($7.91{\pm}0.05-8.17{\pm}0.02log\;CFU/g$). Meanwhile, B. cereus and total aerobic counts in HJ18-4 added BSP were lower than that in the control. These results implied that BSP could be edible after 30 days of fermentation, and the addition of HJ18-4 in meju could contribute to the safety of the black soybean paste by the inhibition of B. cereus growth.

The cooking processes of Yackwa writen in 27 Korean books were reviewed. The changes of the names, shapes, materials and methods of dough, and the methods of frying, the materials and methods of soaking, garnishes were reviewed based on the historical literatures. 1. The changes of names of Yackwa were Yackwa, Kwajul, Chokwa and the shapes were bird, animal, round or cubic. The diameter was about 3.5cm, and thickness was from 0.5cm to 1.5cm. 2. The major ingredients of Yackwa were flour, honey, sesame oil and alcohol beverages. Sometimes, soybean powder and rice powder were used instead of flour, and chochung, sugar water, sugar syrup were used instead of honey. Sesame oil was usually used but salad oil were used occasionally. Usually pure liquor, distilled spirits, rice wine, cloudy and coarse rice wine, whisky were used as alcoholic ingredient and water was used at boiling state. Sesame and sesame salt, ginger and ginger juice, pepper powder, pine nuts powder, salt were used as minor ingredients. 3. Though the flour was kneaded extensively or gently, the latter was peculier since 1940. 4. The dough was fried in oil at $120{\sim}160^{\circ}C$ for $5{\sim}15$ minutes. at that time, The shape will be broken if temperature of oil is too low and too harden if temperature is too high. 5. Fried dough was soaked in honey before 1940, but thereafter other sweeteners, such as chochung, syrup were also used. Ginger juice, dried ginger, citron juice were used for flavor. 6. For enhancing the flavor and softening excess oil was removed from the fried Yackwa, and then it was soaked in honey. 7. The garnishes of Yackwa were pine nuts powder, cinnamon powder, sugar, etc.

Abstract A facultative alkalophilic gram-negative Vibrio metschnikovii strain RH530, isolated from the wastewater, produced several alkaline proteases (VAP) including six alkaline serine proteases and a metalloprotease. From this strain, high yielding YAP mutants were isolated by NTG treatment. The isolated mutant KS1 showed nine times more activity than the wild-type after optimization of the culture media. The production was regulated by catabolite repression when glucose was added to the medium. The effects of several organic nitrogen sources on the production of the YAP were investigated to avoid catabolite repression. The combination of 4% wheat gluten meal (WGM), 1.5% cotton seed flour (eSF), and 5% soybean meal (SBM) resulted in the best production when supplemented with 1% NaCl. The YAP showed a resistance to surfactants such as $sodium-{\alpha}-olefin$ sulfonate (AOS), polyoxy ethylene oxide (POE), and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), yet not to linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS). However, the activity of the YAP was restored completely when incubated with LAS in the presence of POE or $Na_2SO_4$. The YAP was stable in a liquid laundry detergent containing 6.6% SLES (sodium lauryl ether sulfate), 6.6% LAS, 19.8% POE, and stabilizing agents for more than two weeks at $40^{\circ}C$, but the stability was sharply decreased even after 1 day when incubated at $60^{\circ}C$. A washing performance test with the YAP exhibited it to be a good washing power by showing 51 % and 60% activity at $25^{\circ}C{\;}and{\;}40^{\circ}C$, respectively, thereby indicating that the YAP also has a good detergency at a low temperature. All the results suggest that the YAP produced from the mutant strain KSI has suitable properties for use in laundry detergents.rgents.

The effects of two types of protein, soybean meal (SBM) and fish meal (FM); and two types of energy supplements, corn flour (CF) and paper pulp (PP), on intake of guinea grass (Panicum maximum), fibre digestion and microbial activities in four Merino rams with an average weight of $54.4{\pm}4.5kg$ were studied. Each animal was fitted with a ruminal cannula and a duodenal cannula at the proximal position. The animals were fed twice daily with chopped guinea grass (5 cm) ad libitum and one of the four dietary supplements: 170 g FM+268 g PP; 170 g FM+268 g CF; 200 g SBM+200 g PP or 200 g SBM+200 g CF. All the supplements were mixed with 100 g molasses. In sacco and in vivo digestibilities, digesta flow rates, fermentation and microbial population were studied in a $4{\times}4$ Latin square design with a $2{\times}2$ factorial arrangement of dietary treatments. The effects of energy or protein sources were not significant on grass intake of sheep. The potential degradabilities of NDF and ADF were not significantly affected by any of the supplements. However, the energy and protein sources had significant efects on disappearance rate of NDF and ADF. The disappearance rate of both NDF and ADF were significantly (p < 0.05) higher in animals fed PP when compared to animals fed CF. Animals fed FM also showed significantly (p < 0.03) higher disappearance rate of ADF than those fed SBM. Animals fed PP showed better digestion in the rumen and total tract. Total flow of NDF and ADF through the duodenum was not significantly affected by the various supplements. The mean rumen pH values (5.8-6.1) were not significantly different among the four different diets. The concentration of rumen ammonia was significantly (p < 0.0001) higher in animals fed SBM (235-266.4 mg N/L) supplement than in animals fed FM (174.9-179.7 mg N/L), while total VFA concentration was not significantly affected by both energy and protein supplements. Mean values of total VFA ranged from 72.5-82.3 mM. Molar proportions of acetate, propionate and butyrate were typical of a roughage type fermentation. Molar proportion of acetate was significantly (p < 0.0001) higher in sheep fed PP when compared to sheep fed CF. Animals fed FM had higher total viable bacterial counts, while animals fed CF showed higher protozoal numbers. Proportions of cellulolytic bacteria were only slightly higher in animals fed SBM or PP.
