Changes in the contents of mevinolins (natural statins, $0-568.18{\mu}g$), coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10, $26.41-65.59{\mu}g$), and tocopherols ($232.80-312.87{\mu}g/g$ dry weight) in Monascus-fermented soybean were determined using HPLC. Significant increases (p<0.05) in mevinolins and CoQ10 were obtained in Monascus-fermented soybean after 20 days of fermentation compared with unfermented soybean (0 days), whereas no significant change (p>0.05), or a slight decrease, in tocopherols was observed. The results indicate that Monascus-fermentation has great potential for enriching mevinolin and CoQ10 in soybeans.

Objectives : To observe the effect of 4 kinds of Korean medicine and complex extracts on the anti-stress of chronic mild stress Rat model, so as to find out the machanism of its pharmacological effects. Methods : 64 healthy SD Rats were randomly divided into 8 groups. Model Design by chronic stress(CSM), and carried out the forced swimming test. We investigated the body weight, feed and water intake, feed conversion ratio and measured parameters to changes in swimming time, immobility time, 2 and 24 hours of feces, corticosterone hormone and blood glucose level. Results : In this experiments, body weight gain and feed intake were higher in all korean medicinal herb group. Swimming time were increased by Zizyphus jujuba and Gagamsanzointang(SZT) groups and immobility time was significantly lower by Zizyphus jujuba and Fluoxetine(FLX) groups. The result of corticosterone hormone level were significantly lower in Fluoxetine(FLX) and Gagamsanzointang(SZT) but blood glucose was not significantly difference. In 2 hours after fecal frequency result were significantly lower in Zizyphus jujuba group. but SZT group were increased. This result caused by acute stress but 24 hours of feces were restored to normal. Conclusions : 5 kind of Korean Medicinal Herbs extracts has good anti-stress effects, and also to clear the circulatory system and regulate blood glucose and improve bowel function. We suggest that use a single Korean medicine rather than the combination to relieve stress.

발효란"박테리아,곰팡이,효모의 효소에 의해 일어나는 계속적인 변화"로 규정한다. 발효에 의해 일어나는 화학적 변화의 예를 들면 우유의 acidulation. 전분의 분해.설탕이 알콜과 이산화탄소로 변화되는 것과 질소 유기화합물의 산화등이 있다. 배지, 온도, 소금, 산도 배양 용기 및 시간과 같은 몇몇 요인이 발효 과정에 중요한 역할을 한다. 사실 발효식품 제조에 있어서 제품의 향미,텍스쳐,아로마 기타 다른 요소들이 어느 정도의 발효시간에 따라 차이가 있기때문에 단순히 급하게 서두를 수도 없다. 빵, 맥주, 사이다, 와인, 치이즈와 요구르트류의 식품과 음료는 발효과정을 통해 만들어진다. 이들 제품 이외에 어떤 제품은 다른 식품 제조에 이용될 수 있는데, 광의의 이들 식품 소재는 새롭고 기발한 발효기법 뿐아니라 전통적인 기법을 사용해서 생산 되기도 한다. 예를 들면 잔탄검(xanthan gum)은 고분자 폴리사카라드로 Bacterium xanthomona campestris를 이용한 발효과정을 통해 생산되는데 기질로서 설탕을 사용한다 젤란검(Gellan Gum)은 수용성 폴리사카이라이드로 Sphingomonas elodea 순수균의 발효에 의해 생산된다. 이와 같은 다중 기능의 하이드로콜로이드는 IFT Food technology 산업 성공상을 수년에 걸쳐 받았고, 제조업자들은 이것을 증점제, 안정제, 조직강화제로 이용했다. 최근 식품, 음료와 의약품에 사용하는 소이이소플라본(soy isoflavone)이 주목을 받고 있다. 소이이소프라본 중 제니스데인(genistein). 다이드제인(daizein)과 글라이스데인(glycitcin) 같은 soy sioflavone이 건강에 이익을 준다고 연구되었고, 독자적인 발효 과정으로 건강 증진과 기능성을 준다는 이들 성분이 더 많이 함유하는 대두 제품을 내놓고 있다. 본문에서는 12개 발효소재(ingredients)를 살펴보고 이들의 최근 개발동향을 재조명해 보았다. 이들의 개발동향은 시간이 결정적인 요인이 될 수 있는 발효과정을 사용하기 때문에 시기적으로 적절하게 인식될 수 있을뿐만 아니라, 건강, 장점,향미와 관련된 오늘날의 시장경향일 수도 있다.

This study presented a measure for turning by-products, released from land farming sites, into resources. The measure involved adding food by-products such as rice bran and nonfat soybean to the sludge, released from the eel farming sites, inoculating the lactic acid bacteria, Aspergillus oryzae, and Bacillus subtilis by step, fermenting them, and measuring the changed ingredients of the fermented fodder. The water content of the fermented fodder by the step of preparation was the first-step fermented product (14.6%) using the lactic acid bacteria, and the second and third-stage fermented product (33.0% and 34.0% respectively) using Aspergillus oryzae and Bacillus subtilis. The pH level was found to be 5.38 in the first-step fermented product due to the secretion of lactic acid caused by the lactic acid bacteria, and the pH level of the second and third-stage fermented products was 5.66 and 7.26, respectively, showing that the pH level increased. The phytic acid content was 0.126g/100g in the first-step fermented product, 0.004g/100g in the second-stage fermented product, and 0.093g/100g in the third-stage fermented product. The measurement of nitrogen content revealed that the amino nitrogen content was high with 1226.37mg% in the second-stage fermented product, and a little lower with 710.18mg% in the third-stage fermented product. The ammonium nitrogen content increased from 0.988mg/kg in the first-stage fermented product to 1.502mg/kg in the third-stage fermented product. Total nitrogen content increased to 2.78% in the first-stage fermented product, 4.08% in the second-stage fermented product, and 4.85% in the third-stage fermented product. As fermentation continued with the three microbes, the phytic acid decreased, and the protein decomposition rate increased. Also, due to the 3 step fermentation, the low-molecule nitrogen ingredient content increased, suggesting that the fodder was developed to offer high digestion and absorption.

Volatile flavor compounds of radish fermented by lactic acid bacteria were extracted using solid-phase microextraction (SPME) and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). A total of 45 volatile flavor compounds were identified. The volatile flavor compounds in unfermented radish mostly consisted of sulfur-containing compounds (95.85%) and aldehydes (2.61%). While the composition ratio of volatile flavor compounds in radish fermented for two days changed to sulfur-containing compounds (75.53%) and acids (11.12%). As the fermentation period was increased, the contents of dimethyl disulfide, dimethyl trisulfide, diallyl sulfide, diallyl disulfide, and diallyl trisulfide, which have unique garlic and scallion flavor, decreased, and acetic acid and 1-hexanol, which have a sour and fruity flavor, increased. These changes in volatile flavor compounds seemed to have affected the flavor characteristics of fermented radish.

The changes of total phenolic and isoflavone contents and antioxidant activities in of brown soymilk fermented by Lactobacillus plantarum P1201 were investigated. The brown soymilk proliferated the cell growth and reached about 11.55log cfu/g after fermentation for 60hr, while pH and titratable acidity ranged from 6.25 to 4.03 and 0.18% to 1.03%, respectively. The total phenolic contents of brown soymilk slightly increased from 2.87mg/g to 2.98mg/g after fermentation for 60hr. The levels of isoflavone-glycosides and -malonylglycosides decreased, while the isoflavone-aglycone contents increased during fermentation of brown soymilk. In particular, the isoflavone contents was 38.30㎍/g, but increased the highest value of 84.31㎍/g after fermentation for 60hr. After then, it was slightly decreased after 60hr of fermentation. In addition, the levels of daidzein, glycitein and genistein among isoflavone aglycones were 24.12㎍/g, 25.25㎍/g and 24.71 ㎍/g, after fermentation for 36hr. The DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities and FRAP assay showed to be slightly increased during lactic acid fermentation of brown soymilk.

To develop a starter culture system for the fermentation of mukeunji, we introduced lactic acid bacteria and yeast isolated from mukeunji into kimchi fermentation as a single or a mixed culture. On evaluating mukeunji flavor, we found that the mixed starter kimchi prepared with two strains, ML17 and MY7, gave the best sensory score. These strains were identified as Lactobacillus (Lb.) curvatus ML17 and Saccharomyces (S.) servazzii MY7 by molecular identification method. The fermentative characteristics of starter kimchi were investigated by measuring changes in the physicochemical and microfloral characteristics during the fermentation. The decrease in pH and increase in acidity in the starter kimchi were faster compared to respective values of control kimchi. There was a gradual decrease in hardness of starter kimchi, which was still slow compared to hardness decrease in control kimchi. Microbial analysis of starter kimchi revealed that Lb. curvatus ML17 and S. servazzii MY7 were the dominant organisms during the entire fermentation period. The lactic acid and citric acid contents of starter kimchi were higher than those of the control kimchi after 90 days of fermentation. By sensory evaluation, the starter kimchi scored higher in appearance, mukeunji flavor, sourness, carbonated flavor, savory taste, texture, and overall acceptability, but lower in off-flavor than the control kimchi.
