This study investigated the effects of alginate oligosaccharide on lipid metabolism in mice fed a high-cholesterol diet for 6 weeks. Male apoE mice were assigned to four groups: normal diet group (N), high-cholesterol diet group (HC), HC with 5% alginate oligosaccharide group (HC-AOL), and 10% alginate oligosaccharide group (HC-AOH). Epididymal adipose tissue and kidney adipose tissue weights were significantly reduced in the HC-AOH group by 131.4% and 148.4%, respectively, as compared to the HC group. Serum total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), and LDL-cholesterol levels were also significantly reduced in the HC-AOH group by 57.5%, 51.4%, and 82.9%, respectively, as compared to the HC group. Hepatic TC and TG levels in the HC-AOH group were significantly reduced by 72.3% and 33.5%, respectively, as compared to the HC group. These results indicate that alginate oligosaccharide might improve lipid metabolism and reduce fat accumulation.

We measured the glenohumeral and scapulothoracic movements during abduction of the arm in the coronal plane with radiologic analysis in the 30 shoulders of normal male adults who were without pain, limitation of motion, and history of trauma. In the resting position, the glenoid cavity of the scapula faced somewhat superiorly in over 80 percents of the individuals, the mean superior tilting was 5.7 degrees. The mean total scapulothoracic movement was 65.8 degrees and the mean total glenohumeral movement was 106.8 degrees during abduction of arm in the coronal plane. The mean ratio of the glenohumeral movement to the scapulothoracic movement was 1.6 and this GH/ST ratio was decreased toward the extreme abduction. When the arm was abducted, external rotation of the humeral head occurred and this external rotation was increased smoothly during 0 degree through 90 degrees, but steeply above 90 degrees. The acromiohumeral interval was 10.9 mm at the resting positon, and this interval decreased during the arm abduction. The superior migration of the humeral head was 3.1 mm while abducting the arm. Our measurement of the relationships of glenohumeral and scapulothoracic movements at the coronal plane would be useful in the understandings of the biomechanics of shoulder, but further study would be required for the analysis of the three dimensional relationship because of the limitation of our two dimensional analysis.

The effects of germinated brown rice flour on the quality characteristics of white wheat flour noodles were investigated. The insoluble dietary fiber and soluble dietary fiber content of germinated brown rice flour were 5.1% and 4.2%, respectively. Water absorption, development time, and stability of farinogram decreased when germinated brown rice flour was added to white wheat flour. Brightness ($L^*$) decreased, but redness ($a^*$) increased in noodles made from germinated brown rice. Volume of cooked noodles did not change upon addition of germinated brown rice flour, but weight of cooked noodles decreased and the turbidity of cooked water increased. The cutting force of cooked noodles did not change upon addition of germinated rice flour. Addition of 10% germinated brown rice flour to white wheat flour did not have any effects on flavor, color, taste, appearance, and overall acceptability in sensory evaluation.

Thirty two species of coastal plants (mainly halophytes) were investigated for their free amino acids and the total and water-soluble nitrogen contents in leaves. All plants except some species (e.g. Scutellaria and Linaria) contained proline, but only Ageratum. Tetragonia and Raphanus in rather high amounts, that it can be thought to serve as a cytoplasmic osmolyte. In some plant species (Euphorbia. Glehnia. Peucedanum. Raphanus and monocotyledonous Carex and Zoysia), however, hydroxyproline. (OH-Pro) rather than proline were accumulated to a considerable extent. The concentrations of total free amino acids were low in Aster tripolium, Linaria. Lysimachia. Plantago. Rumex, Vitex and especially in the members of the Chenopodiaceae and Crassulaceae. Marked differences also occurred in the nitrogen levels. Aizoaceae, Chenopodiaceae, Convolvulaceae, Cruciferae, Euphorbiaceae and Leguminosae usually showed high values of total and soluble amino nitrogen, while the opposite was true for most of the Cyperaceae, Gramineae, Lamiaceae, Plantaginaceae, Scophuriaceae, and Verbenaceae. The free amino acids in the investigated plant species contributed very little to the nitrogen content, but in plants of Euphorbia, Messerschmidia and Orostachys. their amino acid-N made up for 25∼30% of the total nitrogen. In conclusion, only a few cases did proline known as compatible solute constitute a significant proportion of the free amino acid pool in coastal plants.

Physiological properties of Sarcodon aspratus extracts were investigated. Yields of water, 30, 60, and 90% ethanolic extracts were 52.10, 46.90, 41.50, and 32.20%, respectively. The 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity of 60% ethanolic extract was 40.40% at a concentration of 4 mg/mL, which was highest of all the extracts. The polyphenol content of 60% ethanolic extract was the highest at 16.23 mg/g at a concentration of 1 mg/mL. Superoxide anion radical scavenging activities were 56.30~77.05% at concentrations of 1, 2, and 4 mg/mL, which were better than the ascorbic acid activity (56.19% at 10 mg/mL) (P<0.05). Nitrite-scavenging ability was the most effective in 30% ethanolic extract. A pH level of 3.0 was the most effective for all extracts. Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitory activities of Sarcodon aspratus extracts were from 52.67 to 89.52%.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect on agricultural environment and crop productivity by different amount of applied fertilizer in consideration of irrigation water quality. N, P and K contents of irrigation water used in this experiment were 6.16, 0.26 and 9.37 mg/L, respectively. N, P and K Concentrations of runoff water were lower than those of inflow water during rice cultivation. N, P and K Concentrations of ponded and percolated water were changed according to the amount and time of applied fertilization. During rice cultivation in paddy soil, nitrogen balance was closed to 0 in SFT 50% (50% level of soil testing fertilization), 0.14 kg/ha, but it was 95.3 kg/ha in CF (conventional fertilization) treatment In SW 50% and STF (soil testing fertilization) treatment yield of perfect rice was not greatly different as compared with CF treatment due to the superiority of ripening rate, 1,000 grains weight and milling characteristics. Mechanical paratability of rice was excellent in NF (non fertilization) treatment, STF 50% treatment showed higher in nutrient availability and fertilizers use efficiency than other treatments.

In and attempt to investigate the milling method of barley, four kinds of barley were used for this study. The results are summerized as follow: 1) The optimum tempering and priority of milling quality of barley is shown as following table. Barley is Tempering moisture 15%, Tempering time 24hr. Naked barley is Tempering moisture 14%, Tempering time 48hr. Barley and Naked barley are Tempering moisture 13%, Tempering time 48hr. 2) Economic value of pearled materials milling is disadvantageous, because of the milling expenses are burdensome and flour extractions are fallen down 12.5% in barley and 13.6% in naked barley as compared with unpearled materials milling. 3) Wheat flour milling process may be used without any adjustment when mixed with 90% of wheat and 10% of barley. 4) Unpearled naked barley is the most suitable for flour milling when mixed with wheat.

The lipid contents and neutral lipid components of brown rice, milled rice and bran were studied for four varieties of rice such as Nampung, Milyang #23, Whasung and Jinhung. Total lipid contents of brown rice, milled rice and bran were 2.65%, 1.09% and 20.24% respectively. The ratios of neutral lipids, glycolipids and phospholipids in total lipids were 82.53:12.39:4.08 in brown rice and 87.72:7.02:5.26 in bran. Neutral lipids were separated on the TLC; among them 6 neutral lipids were identified by comparing the RF value of standards. Triglycerides(TG), free fatty acids(FFA) and steryl esters(SE) were major neutral lipid components in brown rice, milled rice and bran. TG content of the bran, compared to that of brown rice and milled rice, was very low in contrast the FFA content was high. The major fatty acids of total lipid and neutral lipid fractions were palmitic, linoleic and oleic acids, comprising over 95% of these classes.
