The aim of the present study is to elucidate the anti-obesity effects of Doenjang with and without salt in C57BL/6J mice. For the analysis, a total of forty mice were randomly divided into four groups: normal diet group (ND), high-fat diet group (HD), high-fat diet supplemented with 20% Doenjang group (DJ), high-fat diet supplemented with 20% unsalted Doenjang group (NS). During the study period, food intake and body weight were measured daily and weekly, respectively. The animals were sacrificed after 12 weeks. Body weight gain, epididymal fat pad weight and serum triglyceride levels of DJ group were found to be significantly lower than those of the HD and NS groups. Serum total-cholesterol levels of DJ and NS groups were significantly lower as compared to the HD group. There were significant decreases in plasma insulin and leptin levels in DJ group compared with the HD and NS groups. We did not observe any significant changes in the expression of hepatic lipogenic-related gene $PPAR{\gamma}$ among the HD, DJ and NS groups. However, ACC expression was found to be significantly decreased in DJ group. Lipolysis-related gene ($PPAR{\alpha}$ and CPT-1) expression was significantly higher in the DJ group as compared to HD and NS groups. In conclusion, the results of this study showed that Doenjang supplementation lowers body weight gain and improves obesity-related parameters.

To improve the individual packaging method and extend the shelf life of hair tail(Trichiurus japonicus), salted an unsalted hair tail chunk (cut in 8-10cm) were packaged in laminated plastic film bag(Nylon/PE: $20{\mu}m,\;12{\times}15cm$) filled with with free-$O_2$ absorber, in vacuum, and stored at 0 and/or $5^{\circ}C$. The other samples were packaged in plastic foam trays, overwraped with oxygen permeable film(control), and stored at same temperature. Volatile basic nitrogen (VBN), trimethylamine (TMA) and viable cell counts (VCC) were progressed with increase of storage time, but thiobarbituric acid (TBA) values decreased gradually after reaching at a maximum peak in 5-15 days. Judging from 4 chemical components, VBN was the most available component in quality judgement of hair tail chunk and its upper limiting content was 29 mg%. Regression equation for shelf life prediction of hair tail chunk with sensory evalution and VBN component was determined.

The effect and osmotic characteristics of sugars for the growth of Saccharomyces rouxii $T_9$ were examined and their results obtained were as follows. (1) The best effective sugars for the growth of Saccharomyces rouxii $T_9$ were inulin, fructose and maltose. (2) Glucose, saccharose, galactose and arabinose were more effective on the media containing 20 percent of NaCl than containing none of NaCl, while fructose, inulin, xylose, sorbitol, raffinose, mannitol, mannose, trehalose and rhamnose were more effective on the media containing none of NaCl. (3) Maltose and lactose were excellent for the growth of Saccharomyces rouxii $T_9$ as addition of 5 to 10 percent on the media containing NaCl and more good in case of 15 percent or more addition on the media containing none of NaCl. (4) Saccharomyces rouxii $T_9$ was generally grown well on the media at the range of containing 15 to 30 percent of sugar concentration. (5) Saccharomyces rouxii $T_9$ was grown up to 80 percent concentration of glucose and 90 of saccharose and maltose.

This study was conducted to induce molting with DDGS and non-salt diet and compare the effect of feeding molting and fasting molting on the performance, egg quality, and visceral organs in laying hens for animal welfare. One-hundredeight 62-wk-old White Leghorn hens that egg production was over 80% and average weight was $1.8{\pm}0.1kg$ were used in this study. Treatments were control(non-molt treatment), feeding molt treatment(DDGS, non-salt diet), and fasting molt treatment. The four treatments were administered to three replicate group of nine hens wherein each group. All treatment groups were fed the basal diet(CP 15%, ME 2,700 kal/kg) for two weeks as the adaptation period. Test Periods were 28 days at all treatments. Egg production decreased for 18 days to be 0% at feeding molting treatment, and for 17 days to be 0% at non-salt feeding molting treatment. Egg production stopped for 6 days at fasting molting treatment. Egg production restarted after 12 days molt at feeding molting treatment, while after 16 days at fasting molting treatment. On the egg quality was improved at molting treatments (p<0.05) except egg yolk. Egg shell tissue was crowded at molting treatment to compare to control. Liver weights, heart weight, and oviduct weight of laying hens decreased at molting treatments(p<0.05). Finally, feeding molting might could be replaced fasting molting on the welfare and further studies were needed about molting program.

The present study was conducted to elucidate the pattern in changes of trimethylamine oxide and related compounds in the muscle of Alaska pollack during drying, especially referred to formaladehyde and dimethylamine. Three kinds of dried samples of Alaska pollack, sun dried, hot-air dried, and salted-sun dried, were prepared and analyzed for their contents of trimethylamine oxide, trimethylamine, dimethylamine, and formaldehyde. The amount of trimethylamine oxide remained in the salted-sun dried sample was relatively higher than those in the other two samples. In the content of trimethylamine, the hot-air dried sample showed an exceedingly high value shelving forty-two times higher than the raw sample while the other two samples showed barely three to four times content based on the raw sample. The dimethylamine content in the hot-air fried sample was comparatively lower than those in the other two samples, the former marked about ten folds of the raw sample's and tile latter showed about fifteen folds, respectively. Refering to the content of formaldehyde, it decreased to eighty-three percent of initial content in the hot-air dried sample. On the contrary, it increased about two times initial content in the other two samples, respectively. As a tendency, the formaldehyde content appeared increased or decreased correlatively with the dimethylamine content, whereas the case was reverse for the trimethylamine content.

The antioxidant effects of chungkukjang, a popular fermented soybean paste in Korea, prepared with solar salt were investigated in vitro. DJI chungkukjang(DJIC) was prepared using 3%(w/w) solar salt or 3%(w/w) refined salt, and fermented by Bacillus subtilis DJI. All of DJIC with no salt, DJIC with 3%(w/w) solar salt, DJIC containing 3%(w/w) refined salt, and commercial chungkukjang were extracted with ethanol, hexane, and water. Antioxidative activities were measured by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl(DPPH) free-radical generation, nitrite scavenging activity, peroxide value in the presence of linoleic acid, and the Rancimat test, in comparison with the commercial antioxidant butylated hydroxytoluene(BHT). Ethanol chungkukjang extracts showed the highest antioxdative capacities, whereas DPPH free-radical generation and scavenging activities, and linoleic acid peroxide values of DJIC extracts prepared using solar salt, and salt-free DJIC, showed the greatest values. In addition, extracts of DJIC prepared using solar salt had the highest antioxidant indices. Antioxidative activities were higher in DJIC extracts than in those of commercial chungkukjang. However, the antioxidative capacities of DJIC prepared using solar salt and DJIC with no added salt were less than those of BHT. In conclusion, these results suggest that extracts of chungkukjang prepared using solar salt are useful nutritional antioxidants and that dietary supplementation with such materials would decrease oxidative stress.
