The purpose of this study was to develop a functional senior mixed soymilk for seniors and to provide functional senior-mixed soymilk to prevent disease outbreaks. The isoflavone content of senior soymilk was 0.15±0.01 mg/g. The β-glucan content of senior soymilk was 9.82±0.01 mg/g. The weight gain of mice were significantly higher in the high-fat diet group than in the other groups. The serum triglyceride content was high at 102.67±40.61 mg/dL in the high-fat diet group, but significantly lower at 83.00±42.43 mg/dL in the 20% senior soymilk group. Thus, the results of this study comprehensively suggest that food intake should be ingested for each life cycle with reference to the dietary reference intakes for Koreans. In particular, the elderly in their 50s and older are deficient in protein and weakened immune capacity, so it is imperative that they maintain their health through various foods such as soymilk, which is evenly nutritious.

The effects of soymilk residues solubilization by cellulase, protease, koji and yeast were investigated on dry matter and protein yields, amino acid and organic acid contents. Co-treatment of soymilk residues by cellulase and protease gave high dry matter yield and protein yield. Koji treatment followed by yeast fermentation was effective for increasing organic acid content and producing soy sauce-like taste and odor. Organic acid content of fermented hydrolysates was improved by cellulase treatment. Protease treatment rather than koji treatment gave high amino acid content, and cellulase treatment seemed to have little effect on increasing free amino acid content. In sensory evaluation, koji-treated hydrolysate showed higher overall acceptance than other hydrolysates, however it showed lower overall acceptance than commercial fermented soy sauce.

The effects of pH, protein and fat content, addition of emulsifiers, stabilizer, sugar, salt and calcium salt on the stability of soymilk suspension were investigated by analyzing the cream separated and precipitates of soymilk which is prepared by various conditions. In the alkaline region of pH, soymilk showed a good stability of the suspension and particularly, above pH 10, precipitates were not formed. When 1.5% of palm oil with 0.4% of glycerine monostearate was added to soymilk in the hydrophile-lipophile balance (HLB) value of 4 to 7, resulted maximal emulsion stability occured below H LB 6. The stability was decreased with increasing the fat concentration and soy oil showed better emulsion stability than that of palm oil. Among the commercial stabilizers, 0.03% of carrageenan was most effective. The stability was not decreased by addition of sugar up to 3% while it was decreased by addition of sodium salt and calcium salt at low level.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of beany flavor elimination and the acceptability of tofu prepared with blanched soybean. The results were as follows: 1. The content and me total protein of soymilk prepared with blanched soybean were decreased comparing with those of soymilk prepared with raw soybean. But the yield of tofu was not changed by blanching the soybean. 2. The beany flavor(hexanal, 1-hexanol, and pentanoI) was decreased but the toasted nutty flavor(ethanol and propanol) were increased by blanching the soybean. 3. By heating of soymilk, most of volatile compounds was disappeared, but ethanol, hexanal and 1-hexanol were remained. The hexanal content of tofu prepared with raw soybean was eleven times higher than that of tofu prepared with blanched soybean. 4. The color of tofu prepared with blanched soybean was more yellower than that of control group. At the lower temperature of blending, the texture of tofu was more smooth and elastic. 5. The tofu prepared with blanched soybean was more tasteful.

Effect of pH, calcium, sucrose, heating and mixing ratio of soy and cow milk was studied on the viscosity and the sensory characteristics of cow-soy milk. The viscosity of soymilk was significantly affected by pH with showing maximum at 6.0 and the pH effect was decreased as the ratio of cow talk increased. A addition of sucrose or calcium affected little on the viscosity and a negative linear relationship was found be tween viscosity and an increase in cow milk ratio. Sensory characteristics of grassy and beany odor and taste of soymilk were rapidly decreased and nutty flavor and total acceptability were increased during initial 30 min of boiling. A further increase in boiling affected little on tastes and odors of soymilk. The beany odor and taste linearly decreased and milk flavor Increased as the ratio of cow milk increased. The total acceptability of 50 : 50 was found to be maximum for cow and soy mixed milks.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of isoflavone supplementation using soymilk on bone mineral density in underweight college women aged 19-22 years with lower than average bone mass. The bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar spine and femoral neck of a number of underweight (BMI < 20) college women was measured. From this group, 33 subjects whose T-score value was below -1 were selected. Anthropometric measurements, dietary recall and BMD were measured before the study began and at the end of the 10th week. The 33 subjects were given 400 ml of soymilk containing 60 mg of isoflavones daily for 10 weeks. After 12 weeks at the end of 10 weeks treatment, the BMD of the subjects was reassessed. The average age of the subjects was 21.1 yrs. At the baseline, average height, weight, and BMI of the subjects were 161 cm, 49.1 kg, 18.8 kg/$m^2$, respectively. Mean daily intake of energy and protein was 1637.2 kcal and 61.2 g, respectively. Mean dietary isoflavone intake was 17.4 mg. Despite the 400 ml soymilk supplementation, there was no significant change in nutrient intake after the 10-week treatment. However, there were significant increases in lumbar spine and femoral neck BMD. After the study, the BMD of the subjects' spine and femoral neck was lower than that before the study. In conclusion, soymilk intake was associated with a significant increase in the BMD of the lumbar spine and femoral neck in underweight college women with lower than average bone mass.

Lipoxygenase are responsible for offensive grassy and green bean flavors which limit the wide utilization of soy protein products. This study was carried out to investigate the processing characteristics of soybean genotypes lacking lipoxygenase. Soybean curd made from soybeans with and without seed lipoxygenase showed nearly similar yield, while those sensory evaluation was better in lipoxygenase lacking lines than noramal one. Chemical composition of soybean curd also was similar between different genotypes, but total sugar content was higher in lipoxygenase lacking lines. Significant different quality of soymilk was showed by sensory test. The flavor and taste of soymilk were better in soybeans without seed lipoxygenase, although soymilk was made by two different processing methods. Therefore, in soybean breeding pro-gramme for food processing, lipoxygenase-lacking soybean genotypes could be useful economically and nutritionally.

The levels of biologically active compounds, such as isoflavone, total saponin, dietary fiber, soy oligosaccharides, and lecithin from each serving size of commercial soy products, were quantitatively determined from the raw soybean, soymilk, tofu, isolated soy protein (ISP), soybean paste(toenjang), natto, and tempeh from local and foreign market. Soy flour, natto, and soymilk contained 489.1 mg, 308.3 mg, and 138.1 mg of isoflavone in each 100 g of dry matter, respectively. The ratios of aglycone to glucoside of soybean paste and tempeh showed relatively high level compared with other tested soy products. Commercial soymilk showed the highest ratio of soluble fiber to total dietary(59%). The higher levels of dietary fiber (20.1 g) and lecithin (1.13 g) were also found in tofu. The lecithin and saponin content of isolated soy protein(ISP) were highest (0.63 g and 0.65 g/ 100 g of dry matter) among the tested samples. In conclusion, soy flour showed the highest level of biologically active compounds, such as saponin, isoflavone, dietary fiber, and soy oligosaccharides. But when the evaluation was based on the serving size, soymilk containing 31.5 mg of isoflavone, 2.59 g of dietary fiber, 0.57 g of oligosaccharides, 0.10 g of lecithin, and 0.11 g of saponin showed similarity to those of the tested soybeans(20 g).

In order to study the effects of blanching and germination of soybean on the quality of soymilk, the soybeans were differently treated as follow; (1) blanched for 5 min at $100^{\circ}C$, (2) germinated for 2 days at $25^{\circ}C$, (3) germinated for 2 days and then blanched for 5 min at $100^{\circ}C$. The qualities of various soymilks prepared from the treated soybeans were compared with those of soymilk from the untreated soybeans. Blanching of soybeans decreased yields, solid materials, viscosity, total protein, soluble nitrogen, and total sugar of soymilk but no effect on its free sugar contents, specific gravity, and pH. The blanching, however, improved the sensory properties and decreased the n-hexanal contents of soymilk to about 1/2.4. Germination of soybeans improved the yields, physical, chemical, and sensory properties and decreased the n-hexanal contents of soymilk to about 1/5. The germination plus blanching of soybeans showed kind of combined effects of germination's and of blanching's, resulting in the decrease of n-hexanal to about 1/10 and improvement in sensory properties of soymilk.

This study investigated the physicochemical properties and antioxidative activity of soymilk added with buckwheat sprout (SBS), and sensory properties of SBS were analyzed with control soymilk (CS). Moisture content decreased while protein, ash, and lipid contents increased according to content of buckwheat sprout. Solids content and viscosity tended to increase with addition of buckwheat sprout from 0% (CS) to 2.5% (2.5SBS), 3.5% (3.5SBS), and 4.5% (4.5SBS). SBS was found the significant pH drop from 7.08 to 6.43, 6.34, and 6.21. Suspension stability of soymilk slightly decreased with addition of buckwheat sprout. Hunter's color value L of SBS decreased while a and b values increased in comparison with CS. Rutin content was measured 23.78 mg/100 g (2.5SBS), 39.68 mg/100 g (3.5SBS), and 44.80mg/100 g (4.5SBS). Vitamin C content in SBS was higher than CS. Daidzin content increased as buckwheat sprout was added. Total phenolic content increased from 100.95 mg/100 g (CS) up to 315.71 mg/100 g (4.5SBS). For free radical scavenging activity, SBS was significantly higher than CS. In conclusion, SBS can be used as a functional food with higher amounts of rutin, vitamin C, total phenolics, and daidzin. 2.5SBS and 3.5SBS also showed better overall quality characteristics.
