This study was conducted to determine the changes in the contents of vitamin C and fermentation characteristics of kimchi on different Chinese cabbage variety(Koreangji Yureum: KY, Kalak Shin Il Ho: KS) and fermentation temperature(5oC, 15oC). Kimchi were fermented at 5oC and 15oC for 140 days and 25 days respectively. In all samples, total acidity increased, and the pH, total sugar and reducing sugar content decreased as the fermentation proceeded. Also, the number of lactic acid bacteria reached the maximum at the optimum fermenting stage. On the other hand, total ascorbic acid, dehydroascorbic acid and ascorbic acid from individual kimchi solid tissue significantly decreased with fermentation periods, however, increased kimchi liquid at the 7day in KS 15(kimchi prepared with Kalak Shin Il Ho at 15oC), KY 15(kimchi prepared with Korangji Yureum at 15oC) and at the 65day in KY 5(kimchi prepared with Korangji Yureum at 5oC) respectively. Therefore, different fermentation temperature as well as variety affected ascorbic acid contents and chemical characteristics of kimchi.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of short-term nutrition education camp on food and nutrient intakes of obese children. The subjects of the study were 30 obese children in Gumi city who have obesity index over $130\%$. The food consumption of the subjects was surveyed for three days before the camp, for eleven days during the first camp and for three days after the second camp, by food record method. The mean intakes of energy and carbohydrates in obese children were significantly decreased during and after the nutrition education camp, and that of vitamin C was significantly increased after the camp. The mean daily total food intake of the subjects was gradually decreased from 1646.4g before the camp to 1438.6g during the camp and 1412.66g after the camp. Energy and fat intake ratios from grains and milks were significantly decreased after the camp compared with that before the camp, and the energy intake ratio from grains, milks and eggs was significantly low during the camp. The protein intake ratios from grains, potatoes, vegetables and fishes were significantly increased after the camp. The calcium intake ratios from potatoes and milks were significantly increased during and after the camp, and the ratio from eggs was significantly decreased after the camp. The iron intake ratios from potatoes and fishes were significantly increased during and after the camp, and the ratio from grains was significantly low during the camp. The results of the study demonstrated that the short-term nutrition education program positively affected the overall food consumption and nutrients intakes of obese children.

We investigated the effects of vitamin E supplementation on the protein glycosylation in vivo. Weaned KK-mice were fed high fat diet containing 20% corn oil(wt/wt), and sacrificed at 4, 6, and 0 months of age. High vitamin E diet was the high fat diet supplemented with an excess amount of 이-$\alpha$-tocopheryl acetate(2080IU/kg diet). We measured $HbA_{1C}$ as a glycosylation early product, and collagen-linked fluorescence (CLF) of skin as a glycosylation and product. We found that diabetic group had increased levels of $HbA_{1C}$ within 2 months after onset of diabetes and during the experiments. The skin CLF increased dramatically 5 months after onset of diabetics. Treatment with vitamin E did not modify the level of blood glucose. However, we observed a significant lowering in CLF and $HbA_{1C}$ in diabetic mice.

Chemical transformation of D-glucose to 2-keto-L-gulonic acid and L-ascorbic acid has been examined. D-Sorbitol obtained from D-glucose was microbiologically oxidized to L-sorbose by G. suboxydans in 90% yield. On treatment of L-sorbose with acetone in the presence of sulfuric acid, its diacetonide is obtained in 95% yield. This diacetonide is oxidized to the corresponding acid with nickel chloride-hypochlorite, and the acid is directly transformed to L-ascorbic acid. The over all yield of Vitamin C from D-glucose achieved is 54%.

The effect of vitamin C on th egramoxone toxicity in the duodenal globlet cells of rats were investigated suing histochemical methods. Rats in control, gramoxone and gramoxone+vitmain C (Vt.C) group, aged 6 to 7 weeks, were fed 18% casein diet. In th egramoxone group, neutral and acid mucins of the globlet cells in villi and crypts of duodenum tended to decrease as compared with the control group. And the globle cells secreting nonsuphated mucins tended to increase in number, being usually accompanied by a decrease of the globlet cells secreting suphated mucins which are prominent in the duodenal mucosa of control group. However, the goblet cells secreting nonsuphated mucins tended to increase in the gramoxone + Vt.C group. Morphological changes of the globlet cells in the gramoxone group were noted vacuolation and demolition of globlet cells, while those changes were not significant in the gramoxone +Vt. C group. It seems to be that Vt. C has alleviating effects on the gramoxone toxicity in secretion and production of the duodenal goblet cells.

Ascorbic acid (vitamin C, AsA) has been known as a strong reducing agent and is supposed to retard the synthesis of melanin pigment. A main problem that arose in using vitamin C in cosmetic formulation was its poor stability and low skin permeability, which result in low lightening efficacy in clinical trials. In this study, iontophoretic gel patch with flexible thin layer battery was employed in order to enhance skin permeation of vitamin c derivative (ascorbyl glucoside, AsAG) and to increase its lightening efficacy. in vitro iontophoretic skin permeation and stability of AsAG, safety and clinical lightening efficacy of iontophoretic patch containing 2% AsAG solution were examined. A optimun current of ionthophoretic patch for korean women was 0.1 mA, considering the skin permeability and skin irritation of consumers. We suggest that iontophoretic gel patch could be a safe system for enhancing the skin permeation of AsAG and lightning efficacy.

To enable off-season peach canning, peaches were halved and processed into solid packs. Following variables were compared in relation to storage stability of solid packs. First as pretreatment-dipping in citric and ascorbic solution after lye peeling; second as pasturization in pouch and hot fill process; third as packaging method-2 ply(PET/PE) and 3 ply(PET/Al/PE) plastic film pouch and metal container; fourth as storage condition $-20^{\circ}C\;and\;-5^{\circ}C$. After 25 weeks storage test, all peaches in different packs were processed into canned peaches just like commercial products, and then quality was organoleptically evaluated from the viewpoint of processing and storage variable of solid packs. The results are follows; 1. Ascorbic acid dipping in 3 ply pouch and citric acid dipping in 2 ply pouch had better quality retention effect than any other pretreatments in respective packing. 2. Pasteurization method gave great effect on the color and texture of the solid pack during storage, but not on the quality of the final canned peach. 3. Can and 3 ply packing were better than 2 ply pouch in storage of solid pack and quality of final canned peach. 4. The $5^{\circ}C$ storage gave better quality than $20^{\circ}C$.

The study was performed to investigate the effects of delayed gamma-irradiation and CA storage on the keeping quality of chestnuts. Chestnuts peviously stored for 3 months at 0$^{\circ}C$ were irradiated at 0 to 0.25 kGy of Co$\^$60/ gamma rays and then stored for 6 months under CA conditions of 3% O$_2$ and 5% CO$_2$ or air at 0$^{\circ}C$. Delayed gamma-irradiation completely inhibited the sprouting of chestnuts, and tore reduced the rotting rate by the combination with CA storage. The weight loss was reduced by delayed gamma-irradiation and CA storage. Hunter L and b values of flesh surface of the chestnuts stored under CA were higher than those of samples stored under air regardless of gamma irradiation. Vitamin C, total sugar and reducing sugar contents decreased immediately after irradiation Vitamin C and reducing sugar contents after 6 months of storage were lower in the samples kept under CA than in those under air. Results indicated that delayed gamma-irradiation after harvest and subsequent CA storage showed inhibitory effects against the development of saluting and rotting and the loss of weights and surface flesh color changes in chestnuts.

Cold buckwheat noodles with 3% vitamin D2 enriched Siitake mushroom and seaweed derived calcium (Aquacal) added as functional ingredients were developed. For the prediction of shelf-life of these cold buckwheat noodles, classified as unsterilized cooked noodles, bacterial counts and sensory evaluations were examined during 8 days under refrigerated conditions (5oC) and 8 weeks of storage under frozen conditions $(-18^{\circ}C)$. Results of bacterial count showed that cold buckwheat noodles were microbiologically safe within 6 days at the storage temperature of $5^{\circ}C$ and the shelf-life of these noodles could be extended to 8 whole weeks when stored at $-18^{\circ}C$. Apparent qualities (off-flavor and fungi development) of cold buckwheat noodles kept in $5^{\circ}C$ were not decreased within 8 days. Sensory characteristics (gloss, mushroom flavor, bitterness, chewiness and elasticity) of noodles were not changed during 8 weeks at $-18^{\circ}C$.
