The mass balances of calcium salts during the manufacturing processes of Tofu were established by conductometric method and chemical analysis method. During the manufacturing processes of soy milk and Tofu, 66% of solid and 63% of calcium was transfered from soy-bean to the soy milk, and 47.8% of total solid from soybean was transfered to the Tofu, respectively. When the $CaCl_2$ was used as coagulant, calcium contents in Tofu $(Y_{Tofu},\;mg{\cdot}Ca/g{\cdot}Tofu,\;wet\;basis)$ and drained solution $(Y_{drained\;soln},\;mg{\cdot}Ca/ml{\cdot}drained\;soln.)$ were linearly increased with the amounts of $CaCl_2(C,g{\cdot}CaCl_2/ml{\cdot}soy\;milk)$ added in soy milk, and correlative equations between them were obtained as $Y_{Tofu}=0.3369\;C+1.2689$ for Tofu$(moisture\;content:\;81.5{\pm}0.5%)$ with r=0.9898, and $Y_{drained\;soln}= 0.2899C+0.0399$ for drained solution with r= 0.9991. It was proved that conductometric method was reasonably applicable to the measurement of calcium contents of the products from every processes of Tofu manufacture except soy-bean. However the conductometric method was not recomendable in the case of $CaSO_4$ as coagulant due to its low solubility ana uneven distribution in soy milk and Tofu tissue.

The change of pectinesterase (PE) activity and pectin substances in fig fruit were investigated and low sugar jams prepared by various methods from fig fruit were compared. Fig fruit PE, which began to show the activity at the harvest time, was not inactivated and had slight activity during frozen storage at $-25^{\circ}C$. The amount of alcohol insoluble solid (AIS) and the degree of esterification (DE) of AIS were reduced by its own PE activity. However the intrinsic PE of fig fruit was not enough to make low-methoxyl pectin below 50% of DE. Fig pulp treated by its own PE and combination of fig PE and orange PE could make low-methoxyl pectin. After PE treatments, fig pulp adjusted below pH 4.0 by addition of citric acid kept red colour. Fig Jams processed by various methods had lower soluble solid $(31{\sim}49^{\circ}Brix)$ compared with conventional fig jam. Five kinds of fig jams out of those showed higher score than others in the sensory evaluation. For preparation of the five jams, the fig pulps with or without 1% pectin were treated at $50^{\circ}C$ for 25 minutes with addition of orange PE (200 units/400 g pulp). The treated pulps were added with 0.25% citric acid, 0.7% calcium and 20% cane sugar. The mixed pulps were prepared for jams containing low sugar by hot plate or microwave or refrigeration (excepting the mixed pulp without pectin).

Effect of Cheonnyuncho extract on the liver injury of rats treated carbon tetrachloride $(CCl_4)$ was studied. Cheonnyuncho extract was administerd at dose of 0.5 and 1 g/kg/day, p.o. for 2 weeks. $CCl_4$ was treated at dose of $0.5\;mL/kg$, i.p. 3 hours later from the last pretreatment of Cheonnyuncho extract. Administration of Cheonnyuncho extract at a dose of 1 g/kg decreased serum AST, ALT and ALP activities by 36, 41, and 22% respectively compared to $CCl_4$ treatment group. Increased lipid peroxidation and decreased SOD and GST activities were also recovered by pretreatment of Chonnyuncho extract in liver of rats. These results suggest that Cheonnyuncho extract has hepatoprotective effect against liver injury.

Some physico-chemical components of Chinese water chestnut were analysed to provide fundamental data for water chestnut processing and products development. The contents of moisture, crude protein, crude lipid, crude ash, crude fiber and carbohydrate of Chinese water chestnut were 79.40%, 1.74%, 0.06%, 1.10%, 0.60% and 17.71% respectively. Free sugars identified in Chinese water chestnut juice were sucrose 8.58%, glucose 1.64% and fructose 1.58% as major component and maltose as trace component. The proportion of major free sugars to total soluble solid content of juice was about 66.0%. Potassium content in Chinese water chestnut was 408.57 mg% as major mineral, iron and manganese content were 0.21 mg% and 0.08 mg% as minor mineral. $Vitamin\;B_1$ and C content were $31.2\;{\mu}g/100\;g$ and trace respectively. Organoleptic properties of Chinese water chestnut were fresh fruit odor and sweet taste as main flavor. Though water chestnut was boiled for 20 min, crunchy texture of flesh was almost maintained.

This study was performed to compare quality of citron juice as affected by the extraction method. The yield of citron juice was 24.49% by method I (rotary-crushing and screening), 18.09% by method II (pressing) and 12.60% by method III (belt-pressing), respectively. Juices by methods I and II had more soluble solid contents and essential oil and pulp volume than that by method III. Method III was higher in titratable acidity than methods I and II. The contents of fructose, glucose and sucrose in method III were 0.54%, 0.37% and 1.11%, respectively, which were lower values than those in other methods. But there was no siginificant difference in the contents of total sugar by the extraction method. For fatty acids composition, the contents of oleic acid in method I, palmitic acid, linoleic acid and linolenic acid in method II, and stearic acid in method III, respectively, were highest when compared with other methods. The contents of free amino acids detected in method III were smaller than those in methods I and II. Threonin was detected only in method I, methionine and cystine were not detected in methods I. II and III. But the contents of the total amino acids in method III were $1.3{\sim}1.6$ times as large as those in methods I and II.

This study was performed to make it possible to adjust milk production records which are changing with days in milk more accurately as developing new 305-day adjustment factors considering current circumstance and to offer easier application by converting adjustment factors to formulas. Total 4,264,347 records were used in this analysis after eliminating unusual value and data was classified by first parity and over second parity. Herd-year effects were classified with 2,878 and 19,783 classes in first parity and over second parity, respectively and number of subclass of age-calving season-lactation stage effects were 136 (age 2, calving season 4, lactation stage 17). For calculation of least square mean, SAS GLM was used and multiplicative adjustment factors were developed. The result of error analysis, deviations between means of adjusted yields and cumulated yields were the lowest in new adjustment factor which was developed in this study comparing with other adjustment factors which were developed in the past (94', 02') in first parity and in over second parity, results of adjustment factors which were developed in 2002 and this study were similar. For easier application, formulas of 305-day adjustment factors were developed using SAS NLIN.

This experiment was carried out to evaluate the value of total mixed fermentation feeds(TMFF) as completely mixed ration and to observe the effect of various kinds of TMFF on the palatability, feed intake, and milk performance in Holstein cows. The dry matter (DM) content of TMFF used in the experiment was 23.98-28.42% range, and CP, TDN, ADF and NDF were 16.2${\sim}$19.2%, 58.3-65.1%, 34.4-39.6% and 46.9${\sim}$49.9% levels, respectively. The relative feed value (RFV) in rape-, alfalfa-, grass-, oat-, corn-TMFF groups were 138.6, 133.9, 116.5, 111.8, 111.4 and 108.1, respectively. Among these groups, RFV of rye-TMFF group was lowest. Dry matter disappearance(DMD) showed 0.8${\sim}$.9% to the all kinds of TMFF groups. The pH was 3.89${\sim}$.87 and $NH_3$-N concentration was 6.93-8.66 mg/$d\ell$. The acetic acid concentration in the raw material of TMFF showed low level of 0.19${\sim}$0.57%, lactic acid showed high level of 1.17${\sim}$3.21% and butyric acid was very high as 0.03${\sim}$0.32%. Therefore, these results provide evidence that the quality of TMFF was not so bad. In the daily fresh matter intake on the alfalfa-, grass-, rape-, corn-, oats- and rye-TMFF were showed 62.85, 60.48, 58.04, 57.11, 54.61 and 45.74 kg respectively. All TMFF showed high palatability as daily dry matter intake of 1.95 to 2.90% by body weight of experimental cows. Body condition score(BCS) was gradually increased in during 60 days of the experiment term. Average daily gain(ADG) showed about 140.0${\sim}$326.7g. In alfalfa-TMFF group, the ADG was higher than in the other groups (p<0.05). Also, the increase in BCS was observed in grass-TMFF group (3.07 to 3.34) and rye-TMFF group was decreased in 3.07 to 3.34 (p<0.05). The milk yield appropriately showed a range of 16.16${\sim}$18.95 kg in all groups. Among these groups, alfalfa-TMFF group was highest(P<0.05). Average milk fat contents showed high levels of 4.06${\sim}$4.79% and the level was high in order of rape-, grass-, corn-, alfalfa-, rye- and oats-TMFF. Milk protein was highest in forage-TMFF and level of lactose in milk was approximately 4.56% in overall groups. Solid non fat(SNF) and total solid(TS) contents were 8.75% and 12.8%, respectively. However, milk composition was not significantly affected by TMFF.
