Cultivation methods for clean soybean sprouts were investigated using irrigating solutions with grapefruit seed extract, chitosan and phosphate buffer. Chitosan and phosphate buffer did not inhibit the growth of soybean sprouts and increased the yield. Especially phosphate buffer was effective in yield increase and rot inhibition. As the times of irrigation with phosphate buffer increased, the yield of soybean sprouts increased up to 12.3% compared to that of the control. The high increase of yield and rot inhibition of soybean sprouts were detected even in $4{\sim}8$ times irrigation with phosphate buffer.

Growth characteristics and crude protein content of soybean sprouts cultivated with extracts of some Korean herb medicines for 4 days were investigated. Extracts of Korean herb medicines were utilized and adjusted to 100 ppm, 200 ppm, 300 ppm and 400 ppm as culturing water of soybean sprouts. Of Korean herb medicines tested, extract of Panax ginseng was most effective to increase of weight and length of soybean sprouts, followed by Glycyrrhiza glabra. Extracts of Angelica gigas and Cnidium officinale were similar with that of control group. Extract of Coptidis japonica inhibited the growth of soybean sprout. Optimal concentrations of extracts of Glycyrrhiza glabra and Panax ginseng for growth of soybean sprout were 100 ppm and 200 ppm, respectively. Weight of soybean sprout cultivated with extract of Panax ginseng (PGE) was increased to 7.2%(wet basis) as compared with that of control group. Length of soybean sprouts cultivated with 200 ppm of PGE was accelerated to 32% and increased to 50% in soybean sprout cultivated for 3 days. Crude protein contents of soybean sprout cultivated with extract of Angelica gigas or Panax ginseng was slightly increased according to cultivation period. In Cnidium officinale group, crude protein contents was increased at a 300∼400 ppm concentration and 4 days of cultivation.

With both common and Tartary buckwheat species, this study was aimed at producing new commercially useful bio-materials with higher nutritional and medicinal value due to higher components for health promotion and diseases care. In common buckwheat sprouts, it was found that root length at $20^{\circ}C$ was longer (5.93 cm) than at 25 and $30^{\circ}C$, whereas the hypocotyls length, fresh weight of each sprout, and whole fresh weight showed the highest value at $30^{\circ}C$. For Tartary buckwheat, the root length, hypocotyl length and fresh weight of each sprout and whole fresh weight were also the highest at $30^{\circ}C$. Common buckwheat (Suwon No.1) and Tartary buckwheat (KW45) sprouts cultured at $20^{\circ}C$ showed that hypocotyl length, fresh weight of each sprout, and whole fresh weight in the control were higher than those sprouts treated with 5% and 10% deep sea water (DSW), while the sprouts cultured at $30^{\circ}C$ showed were significantly longer hypocotyls than the control or 5% DSW treatment.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of charcoal on germination and early growth of barley sprouts. Five treatments were employed based on different amount and treatment method along with control. Barley seeds were soaked in water for 8 hours. Two types of topping treatment were applied such as, charcoal: 100 g (designated as T1) and charcoal: 200 g (T2). Three kinds of mixing treatment were as follows: barley seeds were mixed with 100g of charcoal (designated as M1), with 200g of charcoal (M2), and with 300g of charcoal(M3). The control did not have any charcoal. In our finding, germination rates were observed 53.3% (control), 26.3%(T1), 36.3%(T2), 67.3%(M1), 81.7%(M2), and 79.7%(M3) at three days after inoculation (DAI). Length of radicle was found at 0.90 cm (control), 0.88 cm (T1), 0.99 cm (T2), 1.03cm (M1), 1.66 cm (M2), and 0.70 cm (M3) in 3 DAI. In addition, sprout length was found 4.5 cm (control), 10.4 cm (T1), 11.9 cm (T2), 5.7 cm (M1), 6.3 cm (M2), and 2.1 cm (M3) in 14 DAI. Fresh weight of sprouts were 0.78g (control), 1.03g (T1), 1.07g (T2), 0.96g (M1), 1.07g (M2), and 0.95g (M3). Among the treatment, topping of seeds on 200g of charcoal (T2) showed longest sprout length and fresh weight. Mixing treatments showed higher germination rates and sprout fresh weight. The results may be attributed to difference in micro-climate conditions (mostly temperature and humidity) in the growth boxes in different treatments.

Changes in amino acids, organic acids and free sugars of soybean sprouts cultivated with extract of Glycyrrhiza glabra(GGE) during growth of 4 days were investigated. GGE was utilized as sprouting water of soybean and adjusted to 100 ppm, 200 ppm, 300 ppm and 400 ppm. Content of total amino acids of soybean sprouts cultivated with GGE was the most abundant, when soybean sprouts were cultivated for 3 days with 100 ppm of PGE. Content of aspartic acid was increased according to culturing days, but glutamic acid was shown to be a opposite trend. Content of total free sugar of soybean sprouts cultivated with GGE was lower than those of control group, and then increased by increasing of culturing days within GGE groups with same concentration. Sucrose of all groups during growth of soybean sprouts was decreased, but the other sugars were increased. Content of total organic acids was increased by increasing of culturing days and was the most abundant in soybean sprouts cultivated with 200 ppm of GGE among same groups. In conclusion, GGE as sprouting water of soybean was effective to increase of contents of amino acids and organic acids in soybean sprouts, indicating that GGE accelerated the quality of soybean sprouts.

The antimicrobial effect of mixed solutions of grapefruit seed extract(250ppm) and ascorbic acid(1%) on the spoilage microorganisms such as Staphylococcus epidermis, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas syringae, Candida albicans and Corynebacterium xerosis isolated from the spoiled soybean sprouts were investigated. Cell wall and membrane were partially destroyed and the contents of the destroyed cell were exuded after treatment. Packages with 30 m cast polypropylene(CPP), 16 m polyolefin(RD 106) and 10 m high density polyethylene(HDPE) were applied for soybean sprouts dipped in mixed solutions respectively. Oxygen and carbon dioxide concentration inside packages were dependent on the kind of films during storage at 5oC. The antimicrobial activity of mixed solutions was maintained for 5 days at CPP package. Package with HDPE showed a severe browning than the others after 5 days. Ascorbic acid content of mixed solution treatment was higher than that of control for each package.

This study evaluated the general nutritional ingredients such as crude fats, crude ashes, crude proteins, total polyphenols, and total flavonoids in 18 kinds of edible tree sprouts. The tree sprouts of Philadelphus schrenckii, Lycium chinense, and Morus alba had the highest crude fat, crude ash, and crude protein content, respectively. The tree sprouts of Cedrela sinensis (CSS) with high ABTS⁺ radical scavenging activities had a high content of total polyphenols (175.65 mg/g ext.) and total flavonoids (75.18 mg/g ext.). The simultaneous determination of flavonoids such as rutin, isoquercitrin, quercitrin, afzelin, and quercetin in CSS was conducted using high-performance liquid chromatography with a wavelength of 270 nm. Among the flavonoids, the content of quercitrin in CSS was the highest at 59.28 mg/g ext. This study also aids the quality control of many edible tree sprouts by analyzing the general components, total polyphenols, and total flavonoids.
