Yields of enzyme-resistant starch (RS) from three kinds of maize starches (Amioca, normal starch and Amylomaize VII) which were treated with 1 N HCl for 24 hr and physicochemical characteristics were investigated. Hydrolysis rate of maize starches decreased with increasing amylose content. Maximum wavelength $({\lambda}_{max})$ and iodine affinity were decreased by the acid treatment. The yields of RS increased with acid treatment up to 12 hr and then decreased. The yield of for 12 hr acid-treated Amioca increased 8 times more than untreated sample, but those of normal starch and Amylomaize VII slightly increased. Using SEM, acid-treated and autoclaved maize starches showed gel like structure, but RS had round and rod shape small particles. X-ray diffraction patterns of autoclaved starches showed amorphous structure in Amioca and B-type in normal starch and Amylomaize VII, and those of RS showed all completely crystalline structure.

This study identified and quantified the sugar-related metabolites and analyzed the structural features of starch in kimchi added with various concentrations of glutinous rice paste during fermentation. The pH values and total bacterial counts indicated that the fermentation of kimchi with 10% glutinous rice paste progressed more quickly than that of kimchi with other rice paste concentrations. The addition of glutinous rice pastes to kimchi resulted in increased glucose and decreased fructose contents during fermentation compared to the control kimchi. Maltose content increased significantly with increasing glutinous rice paste concentrations. The average chain length distribution of starch in kimchi decreased with increasing proportions of short chains as fermentation progressed. However, the average chain length distribution of starch increased with increasing glutinous rice paste concentration in kimchi. Our results confirmed that the sugar-related metabolites and starch structural changes were highly influenced by the added starch paste concentration.

Changes in the level of metabolites in leaves and pods were examined with respect to the seed chemical composition in black soybean. There was no further increase in pod length after 42 days after flowering (DAF). Pod weight, however, persistently increase until 73 DAF, thereafter the weight was slightly lowered. The seed storage protein, however, increased drastically as the increasing rate of pod weight was lessened at 61 DAF. The accumulation of seed storage proteins was occurred conspicuously as the increasing rate of pod weight was slowed down. The chlorophyll content both in leaves and pods was drastically decreased after 50 DAF. The beginning of drastic reduction in chlorophyll content was occurred concomitantly with the reduction of soluble protein content in leaves. The sugar content in leaves showed similar tendency with chlorophyll and soluble protein content. The starch level in leaves, however, showed different changing pattern during seed development. The starch content in leaves was increased persistently until 66 DAF, thereafter the content was decreased drastically to about $55\%$ of maximal value at 66 DAF. Total phenolics content in leaves and the anthocyanins content in seeds were stable without noticeable increase until 66 DAF. The contents were increased dramatically after 66 DAF showing the synchronized pattern with the decrease in starch level in leaves. The levels of the selected metabolites in leaf and seed suggested that the accumulation of chemical components of black soybean seed is launched actively at 66 DAF. The profile of storage proteins was nearly completed at 61 DAF because there was no large difference in densitometric intensity among protein subunits after 61 DAF. In soybean, chemical maturation of seed begins around 61 to 66 DAF at which most metabolites in vegetative parts are decreased and remobilized into maturing seeds.

Dielectric properties of sardine-starch paste with moisture content of 4 to $13\%$ were investigated as functions of moisture and frequency. And the effects of the levels of fat and starch of the mixtures upon dielectric permittivity, critical moisture, were also mentioned. In addition, a theoretical prediction of frequency dependence of dielectric constant which was computed by the lumped circuit of two layer condenser model was evaluated. For the preparation of sardine-starch paste, comminuted sardine meat was washed thoroughly several times in chilled water by soaking and decanting, and finally centrifuged. This procedure was extended longer to provide a low fat sample. The centrifuged meat was mixed with adequate amounts of starch and salt, and ground for 25 minutes in a stone mortar, moulded in the form of disk with 7cm diameter and 1.2cm thickness and then freeze dried. Dried meat disks were cut off for the size of 5.5cm diameter and 1.0cm thickness and their moisture contents were controlled in humidified desiccators with saturated solutions. Dielectric constants of sardine-starch paste tended to decrease frequency was increased showing a critical charge at the moisture called critical moisture content. In case of the sample with $20\%$ starch and $2\%$ salt an average complex permittivity($\epsilon^{\ast}$) at 7 to $8\%$ morsture as the critical moisture content was presented; $\epsilon^{\ast}$=3.37+j 0.39 at 0.1 MHz, $\epsilon^{\ast}$=2.54+j 0.19 at 15 MHz, and $\epsilon^{\ast}$=2.15+j 0.08 at 1.8 GHz, respectively. The theoretically obtained complex permittivity values from the two layer condoner model were in close agreement with these actual measurements under the same conditions, that appeared as $\epsilon^{\ast}$=2.53+i 0.09 at 0.1 MHz and $\epsilon^{\ast}$=2.28+j 0.06 at 15 MHz, respectively. The fast level of the mixture also revealed an influence on dielectric property that defatted neat with $1.0\%$ fat showed a higher hc and $\epsilon^{\ast}$ value than the meat with $4.8\%$ fat. Complex permittivity being related to the moisture level remained nearly unchanged or slightly changed at the moisture range of 4 to $8\%$ but was dispersed widely at higher moisture contents.

Differential scanning calorimerty(DSC) was used to study gelatinization phenomena of defatted rice, corn, wheat, potato starch and nondefatted rice and wheat starch at heating rate $5{\sim}15^{\circ}C/min$. Gelatinization temperature of defatted rice and wheat starch indicated $4{\sim}5^{\circ}C$ lower temperature than nondefatted starch. More rapid heating rate resulted in a increasing of the gelatinization enthalpy for various starches. A linear relation was observed between water content, heating rate and gelatinization temperature. From the linear relationship existing between water content and gelatinization enthalpy, minimum water content for the gelatinization were 41, 38, 33 and 30% of rice, potato, wheat and corn starch, respectively.

The water sorption isotherms of binary mixtures, prepared by corn starch and isolated soybean protein (ISP) or casein, were measured and analyzed. Simple equations to predict moisture content from knowledge of composition and water activity of the mixture were derived by applying Response Surface Analysis. Comparison between predicted and experimental moisture content for 13 combinations of corn starch-lSP mixture at the range of $a_w$ 0.25-0.87 resulted in a maximum error of only 6.06% and an absolute mean error of 2.60%, and for the mixture of corn starch-casein the error was -4.39% and 2.12%, respectively. The agreement between experimental and predicted water sorption isotherms was shown to be 'highly acceptable' for the binary mixtures of 50% corn starch-50% ISP and 50% corn starch -50% casein.

The aim of the study was to formulate the stable amlodipine maleate tablet by selecting and combining of suitable ingredients. Amlodipine tablets were designed by using different manufacturing methods or formulations. Dissolution rate at 30 min of newly formulated tablets was over 98% in 0.1 M HCl medium. After 4 months storage under accelerated condition, the changes of appearance, loss on drying, content and total impurity were investigated. For long-term stability tests, two formulations of K017 (direct compressed tablets consisting of microcrystalline cellulose and pregelatinized starch) and K018 (wet granulated tablets by OpadryAMB) were stored under $25^{\circ}C$, 60% RH for 24 months. Under the accelerated condition, moisture content in K017 formulation was increased as 5.96% for 4 months, while other formulations with anhydrous monobasic phosphoric potassium or by wet granulation showed higher increase in moisture content compared to K017. In addition, K017 formulation showed a low decrease in contents and total relative substance as 0.8% and 0.7%, respectively. Similar stability of amlodipine in K017 was obtained under the long-term stability test. These results indicate that the K017 combined with microcrystalline cellulose and pregelatinized starch as ingredients is very stable formulation to protect active substance from moisture contact and sustain stability. Therefore, suitable combination of ingredients such as microcrystalline cellulose and pregelatinized starch could attribute to enhance the stability of moisture-labile drug such as amlodipine maleate.

We conducted to compare the characteristics of rice flours according to the different milling processes. Five rice varieties (Oryza sativa L.) with different amylose content were prepared by wet and dry milling processes. The moisture contents of wet-milled rice flours (WMR) was mostly three-time higher than those of dry-milled flours (DMR). Water absorption index (WAI), water solubility index (WSI) and swelling power (SP) increased in proportion to temperature ($50-90^{\circ}C$). WAI, WSI, SP of DMR showed higher value than those of WMR. Baeokchal (BOC) which is waxy rice cultivar was significantly high level of WSI. Pasting properties of DMR except BOC cultivar resulted in higher peak viscosity, trough viscosity, final viscosity and Setback. The levels of resistant starch in the four cultivars except Dodamssal (DDS) were under 1% irrespective of Milling processes, whereas the resistant starch contents of DMR and WMR in DDS was 9.18 and 6.27, respectively. Damaged starch content of WMR were less than those of DMR, moreover, negative correlation was observed between amylose content and damaged starch of rice cultivars. These results suggest that the properties of rice flour varied depending on the milling methods and varieties, and it could be a reference for selecting the appropriate processing purposes.

These studies were conducted to investigate the changes in carbohydrate properties of the endosperm during the stages of maturity. Original moisture continued to decrease while 1,000-kernel weight and test weight increased steadily in all varieties with maturation. Starch content of the endosperm increased continuously by 35 to 40 days after heading. The B-type starch granules synthesis of the the early mature variety, Chokwang, was depressed at the later stages of development. Amylose and amylopectin components of starch both increased as the kernel matured, and amylose-amylopectin ratio also increased during the same period. Amount of pentosan per kernel basis increased throughout the maturation period. Amylograph break-down had a highly negative coefficient correlation with starch and pentosan content of endosperm. Results indicated that wheat maturation was characterized by an increase in the starch and pentosan content of the kernel.

The objective of this study was to determine the molecular/crystalline structures and phase transition properties of starches isolated from six rice cultivars grown in Korea. Apparent amylose content was highest in starch obtained from the Saemimyeon cultivar (30.8%) and lowest in that obtained from the Sheonhyangheukmi cultivar (20.3%). Starch from the Saemimyeon cultivar had a lower proportion of short chains (DP 6-12) and a the higher proportion of long chains (DP${\geq}37$) than that seen in other rice starches. Saemimyeon had relatively higher pasting temperature ($86.5^{\circ}C$), gelatinization temperature ($72.1^{\circ}C$) and gelatinization enthalpy (14.2 J/g) than these values found for other rice starches. The onset temperature and enthalpy for ice crystallization of rice starch ranged from $-27.1{\sim}-20.2^{\circ}C$ and 241.1~264.8 J/g, respectively. The ice melting enthalpy measured in excess water (67% water content) of rice starches was 282.4~310.1 J/g. Among the rice starches examined, starch obtained from Sheonhyangheukmi, with the lowest amylose content, showed the lowest glass transition temperature (${T_g}^{\prime}$).
