For the effective utilization of dark meat separated as by-product from skip-jack canning, the dark meat concentrate(DPC) was prepared by removal of extractable materials with ethanol from dried dark meat. Dark meat protein hydrolysate(DPH) was prepared by the hydrolysis of DPC with ${\alpha}-chymotrypsin$. ${\alpha}-Chymotrypsin$ hydrolysed DPC to the extend of 79% during 10hr. The solubility over a pH range 1~12 showed similar trend on the both of DPH and DPC. The highest solubility was 81% on the DPH and was 36% on the DPC at pH 3. The lowest solubility was 65% on the DPH and was 22% on the DPC at pH 7. The content of total free amino acid was higher in the DPC than in the DPH, but the content of total essential free amino acid was higher in the DPH. Especially, the contents of taurine in the DPC and DPH were much higher than those of other amino acids. The result of sensory evaluation on the fish sauce analogue showed good taste, color and odor at the supplemented level of 8g DPH per 100ml of raw solution of fish sauce analogue and didn't show signifcaint difference compared with market fish sauce(p<0.05). On the preparation of surimi gel, 2% substitution of DPH for the supplemented starch was the most appropriate level.

Plasteins were synthesized from a peptic filefish protein hydrolysate by papain, $\alpha-chymotrypsin$ and protease(from Streptomyces griceus) under the optimum conditions of previous paper. L-glutamic acid diethylester and L-leucine ethylester were incorporated into plastein during the plastein reaction by papain. The structural changes of freeze-dried filefish meat, peptic hydrolysate, FPC and plasteins were observed by Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM). The functional properties of plasteins also were measured. The solubility of plasteins was higher than that of FPC and the Glu-plastein had $95\%$ solubility in the range of pH 3-10. The dispersibility of Glu-plastein and protease plastein was similar to that of egg albumin, but those of the other plasteins were lower. The water holding capacity of plasteins was lower than that of egg albumin and C. Lipid absorption of Leu-plastein was tile highest, holding 1.80 ml/g, and that of the other plasteins was similar to that of egg albumin. The emulsifying activity of Leu-plastein was the highest, holding $61.2\%$, and that of Glu-plastein was the lowest, holding $50.7\%$. The emulsifying stability of plasteins was similar to that of the emulsifying activity. The emulsifying capacity of Leu-plastein was 384 ml/g(the highest), but that of Glu-plastein and $\alpha-chymotrypsin$ plastein was 248 ml/g(the lowest). The Leu-plastein shelved the highest foaming capacity, $373\%$. The foaming capacity of other plasteins was higher than that of egg albumin. The foaming stability of plasteins was superior to that of egg albumin. The viscosity of plasteins was lower than that of egg albumin. The microstructure of $\alpha-chymotrypsin$ plastein by SEM wassimilar to that of papain plastein, but other plasteins showed differences in their microstructure. The microstructure of Glu-plastein had a smooth shape.

Three wethers fitted with silastic catheters for collection of pancreatic juice, and cannulas located in the abomasum and the duodenum were used to investigate the effects of different hay and energy intake on pancreatic exocrine secretion. The wethers were fed Italian ryegrass hay or alfalfa hay at maintenance energy requirement and alfalfa hay ad libitum. High energy intake from alfalfa significantly increased abomasal flow of dry matter and both the concentration and daily secretion of ${\alpha}-amylase $. The high energy intake also tended to increase daily secretion of lipase, trypsin and chymotrypsin through the large volume of pancreatic juice. Compared with Italian ryegrass hay, alfalfa hay at the maintenance decreased abomasal dry matter flow, but increased concentration of ${\alpha}-amylase $ in the pancreatic juice, and tended to increase daily secretion of ${\alpha}-amylase $. The secretion of the other enzymes was not different between the two hays at maintenance intake. These results suggest that the kind of hay could change the concentration of ${\alpha}-amylase $ in the pancreatic juice, and that the intake level of alfalfa hay affects the ${\alpha}-amylase $ concentration and the juice volume secreted from the pancreas.

This study investigated the antioxidant and antiobesity activity of extract powders from the following natural color resources: Polygonum indigo, Black locust, Cochineal, Catechu, Grape, Tesu flower, Henna, Chrysanthemum, Sandalwood Red, Himalayan Rhubarb, and Madder. Total phenol content was the highest in Catechu extract, at 348.25 mg/g. DPPH, ABTS radical scavenging activity and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) were also higher in Catechu extract. Bleaching inhibition activity in the ${\beta}$-carotene linoleic acid system was the highest in Black locust extract, as was ${\alpha}$-Glucosidase inhibition activity. ${\alpha}$-Amylase inhibition activity was the highest in Catechu extract. Trypsin inhibition activity of Black locust extract was greater than 60%, and ${\alpha}$- chymotrypsin inhibition activity of Catechu extract was greater than 40%. Lipase inhibition activity was the highest Black locust extract, at 52.73%. Viability of 3T3-L1 cells was not affected by treatment with extracts at concentrations of $1.25{\sim}25{\mu}g/ml$. Lipid accumulation in the 3T3-L1 cells was the lowest following treatment with Catechu extract, at 55.8%, and this extract also inhibited adipocyte differentiation. These results suggest that the Catechu and Black locust extracts have high antioxidant and antiobesity activities and can be useful ingredients in functional foods.

The antioxidative activity of various enzymatic extracts from leaves of Perilla frutescens var. japonica was evaluated by measuring 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), hydroxyl, and alkyl radical scavenging activity using an electron spin resonance (ESR) spectrometer. For this study, the leaves were enzymatically hydrolyzed by 8 carbohydrases (Dextrozyme, AMG, Promozyme, Maltogenase, Termamyl, Viscozyme, Celluclast, and BAN) and 9 proteases [Flavourzyme, Neutrase, Protamex, Alcalase, PP-trypsin (trypsin from porcine pancreas), papain, pepsin, $\alpha$-chymotrypsin, and BP-trypsin (trypsin from bovine pancreas)]. The DPPH radical scavenging activities of Promozyme and Alcalase extracts were the highest, and the $IC_{50}$ values were 77.25 and $109.66\;{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. All enzymatic extracts of the leaves scavenged hydroxyl radical, and the $IC_{50}$ values of Celluclast and pepsin extracts which were the highest activity were 243.34 and $241.86\;{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. The BAN and $\alpha$-chymotrypsin extracts showed the highest scavenging activities, and the $IC_{50}$ values were 21.13 and $33.23\;{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. The pepsin extracts from the leaves showed protective effect on $H_2O_2$-induced DNA damage. In addition, the pepsin extracts decreased cell death in PC-12 cells against $H_2O_2$-induced oxidative damage. The findings of the present study suggest that enzymatic extracts of the leaves possess antioxidative activity.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of enzyme treatments on the functional properties of soy protein isolate (SPI) and to examine the quality attributes of soy yogurt prepared by different enzyme treatments, sweeteners and starter cultures. Enzyme treatment increased the solubility and emulsifying capacity of soy proteins, but decreased the emulsifying stability; the enzymatic activity of ${\alpha}$-chymotrypsin was higher than that of trypsin. Enzyme treatments decreased the pH of soy yogurts prepared by both culture methods, the culture of L. bulgaricus and S. thermophilus and the culture of L. bulgaricus and K. fragilis, but increased the titratable acidity, total numbers of lactic acid bacteria and yeast. Trypsin was more effective than ${\alpha}$-chymotrypsin in decreasing pH and increasing titratable acidity and total numbers of lactic acid bacteria and yeast. Fructose decreased the pH of soy yogurts more than sucrose in the culture of L. bulgaricus and S. thermophilus, and vice versa in the culture of L. bulgaricus and K. fragilis. Fructooligosaccharides were more effective in the culture of L. bulgaricus and K. fragilis than in the culture of L. bulgaricus and S. thermophilus in increasing the titratable acidity, total count of lactic acid bacteria and yeast. In sensory evaluation, soy yogurts containing trypsin treated SPI, fructose and fructooligosaccharides (75%:25%) were more acceptable than those containing untreated or trypsin treated SPI and fructose. This was because of more smooth and less sour, in which the values of pH, titratable acidity, microbial growth, and viscosity were in the range of commercial yogurts. Soy yogurts fermented by L. bulgaricus and K. fragilis showed more smooth mouthfeel than those fermented by L. bulgaricus and S. thermophilus.

The CJ6 bacterial strain, which possesses strong antifungal activity, was isolated from meju and identified as Bacillus polyfermenticus based on Gram staining, biochemical properties, and 16S rRNA gene sequencing. B. polyfermenticus CJ6 showed antimicrobial activity against the various pathogenic molds, yeasts, and bacteria. Antifungal activity from B. polyfermenticus CJ6 was reduced after 24 hr at $70^{\circ}C$ but antifungal activity was not completely destroyed. The antifungal activity was stable in the pH range of $3.0{\sim}9.0$, and inactivated by proteinase K, protease, and ${\alpha}$-chymotrypsin, which indicate its proteinaceous nature. The apparent molecular masses of the partially purified antifungal compound, as indicated by using the direct detection method in Tricine-SDS-PAGE, was approximately 1.4 kDa.

One strain of Streptomyces sp. (AS-707) isolated from soil was found to produce a biologically active substance that showed a strong inhibitory activity against proteolytic enzymes viz. trypsin, papain, $\alpha$-chymotrypsin, Azotobacter protease, and Bacillus pretense. The substance was separated from culture filtrate by ion exchange column chromatography using Amberlite IRC-50 and CM-cellulose column chromatography. It was found that the recovery yield was 26% as activity basis. The substance was stable in wide pH range from 2.0 to 12.0 at 37$^{\circ}C$, but it was unstable in alkaline pH values at 6$0^{\circ}C$. The activity was thermostable to give 90% activity compared to the intact sample when it was treated at pH5.6 at 10$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours.

Enzymatic hydrolysates of food proteins (defatted soybean cake, egg albumin and casein) were tested for inhibitory activity against angiotensin-I converting enzyme (ACE). Food proteins were hydrolysed with complex enzyme, bromelain, alcalase, $\alpha$-chymotrypsin, trypsin, papain and pepsin by heating method. The hydrolysates obtained from the treatment of complex enzyme and bromelain showed the higher ACE inhibitory activity. ACE inhibitory activity of hydrolysates exhibited a tendency to be increased until 8hrs and increased with increment of concentration. The activity was also stable by heat treatment at 10$0^{\circ}C$ for 20min. Molecular weight of active fraction was about 1, 400 and defatted soybean cake hydrolysate below 1, 400 in case of defatted soybean cake hydrolysate treated with alcalase. Amino acid of the active fractions was abundant in Asp, Glu, Lys, lle, Leu, Ala and Val.
