The lipid components of cultured bastard(Paralichthys olivaceus) were analyzed and compared with those of wild one and flounder(Pleuronichthys cornutus). Total lipid(TL) content of dorsal muscle in wild and cultured bastard, flounder was 2.0%, 1.6%, and 1.9%, respectively. Wild bastard and flounder were higher in neutral lipid(NL) and glycolipid(GL) contents, while lower in phospholipid(PL) content than those of cultured one. The NL was mainly consisted of triglyceride(70.7-72.6%), and PL was mainly occupied by phosphatidylcholine(53.6-58.3%), phosphatidyl-ethanolamine(25.9-29.5%). In fatty acid composition of TL, cultured bastard showed higher content in polyenes such as docosahexaenoic acid. and lower in monoenes such as palmitoleic, oleic acid than those of wild one. Flounder was higher in Percentage of arachidonic, eicosapentaenoic acid compard with bastard. The major fatty acids of these fishes were palmitic, docosahexaenoic, oleic, eicosapentaenoic and palmitoleic acid in order. These fatty acid composition of NL, GL and PL fractions were not significantly different among wild and cultured bastard, flounder.

The characteristics of the components related to the meat taste of the commercial broiler (CB) and the Korean native chicken (KNC) were compared. The breast meat from CB showed higher amounts of $C_{16:1}$ and $C_{18:2}$ but lower amounts of $C_{16:0}$ and $C_{22:6}$. The thigh meat from CB showed a higher amount of $C_{18:1}$ but lower amounts of $C_{16:0}$, $C_{18:0}$, $C_{20:4}$, and $C_{22:6}$. The flavor- and taste-contributing amino acids, including aspartic acid, threonine, serine, glycine, alanine, tyrosine, lysine, histidine, and arginine, were significantly higher in the KNC breast meat, but the level of amino acids in the thigh meat were not different between the two breeds. The measurement of the volatile compounds revealed that CB contains much higher volatile compounds compared to KNC in their fresh breast and thigh meat. Both in the breast and thigh meat, however, the amount of flavor compounds increased significantly after cooking; as such, KNC turned out to have more flavor compounds than CB.

This study investigated the effects of Opuntia ficus-indica and other natural resources (OF) in db/db and C57 mice. Plasma triglycerides, cholesterol, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) activity, aspartate aminotransferase (AST) activity, fecal bile acid excretion, the histopathological appearance of the liver, and cholesterol-related mRNA expression were determined. Mice (12 db/db mice and 12 C57 mice) were assigned to diabetic-control (db-C), diabetic-OF treatment (db-OF), normal-control (C57-C), and normal-OF treatment (C57-OF) groups. Animals in the control group were fed an AIN-76 recommended diet and animals in the OF group were fed an experimental diet containing 5% of OF for 4 weeks. Concentrations of total plasma cholesterol, triglyceride, low density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol, and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL)-cholesterol decreased with the administration of OF. In contrast, high density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol levels were minimally affected by the experimental diet. Plasma AST and ALT showed lower activities in the db-OF group, and the fecal excretion of bile acid was reduced in the db-OF group. Histopathological analysis of the liver showed that fatty liver conditions in the db-OF group were more improved than db-C. Low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDL-R) and cholesterol 7${\alpha}$-hydroxylase (CYP7A1) mRNA expression were increased in the db-OF group as well. However, 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (HMG-CoA-R) mRNA expression was lower in the db-OF group. These results provide experimental evidence about improved lipid metabolism of the OF feeding in the db/db mice.

Lipid peroxidation is one of the main manifestations of oxidative damage and has been found play an important role in the toxicity and carcinogenesis of many carcinogens. This study was carried out to investigate the effects of aflatoxin B$_1$co-administrated with antioxidant vitamins on lipid contents and fatty acids components of liver in mice. For this work, vita-min C and vitamin E, the major antioxidants, were administrated with 10 mg/kg and 63.8 mg/kg respectively, through intraperitoneal(i.p) injection to male ICR mice, and 0.4 mg/kg of the AFB$_1$injected by i.p. 1hr later. The results were as follows: two fold amounts of free cholesterol, triglyceride, and total cholesterol in serum and liver of mice treated with only AFB$_1$were observed, when compared to those of mice co-administrated with antioxidant vitamins. However, the levels of phospholipids in serum and liver of mice treated with only AFB$_1$were decreased. Concerning to fatty acids composition of liver from AFB$_1$-treated mice, P/S ratio was shown more low level in cholesteryl ester, triglyceride, total cholesterol and phospholipid than those of mice co-administrated with antioxidant vitamins. In these data which provide with a reliable evidence on their antioxidantal effects to aflatoxicosis.

As a series of study on the hygienization and long-term storage of dried red pepper and red pepper powder using gamma irradiation, water activity and fatty acid composition were monitored for stored samples. In proximate composition of dried pepper, moisture contents were 21.75 % in pericarp and 9.30% in seed, and crude fats were 7.20% (fresh wt.) in pericap and 22.50% in seed, respectively. Proximate components were stable against irradiation up to 10 kGy. Moisture contents and water activity of packaged samples in PE (0.1mm)/polycloth (whole pepper) and in nylon $15\;{\mu}m/PE\;100\;{\mu}m$ (pepper powder) were not remarkably changed during storage for 9 months under room temperature $(3{\sim}30^{\circ}C,\;RH\;50{\circ}95%,\;whole\;pepper,\;powder)$ and low temperature $(5{\sim}10^{\circ}C,\;pepper\;powder)$, respectively. Fatty acids of dried red pepper were mainly composed of linoleic acid, oleic acid, palmitic acid and linolenic acid. Particularly higher composition of unsaturated fatty acids were observed in seed $(84{\sim}85%)$ than in pericarp $(73{\sim}76%)$, and which showed negligible changes during post irradiation period for 6 months.
