In this study, we produced kimchi with cooked Dioscorea batatas yam. Sliced kimchi cabbage, processed white radish kimchi (kkakdugi), and whole kimchi cabbage were prepared with 3% Dioscorea batatas, the nutritional and sensory properties were evaluated. The three types of D. opposita kimchi showed energy content in the range of 35-40 kcal per 100 g, and no crude fat, saturated fat, trans fat, or cholesterol was detected. Sodium content was 450-650 mg, with sliced cabbage kimchi showing the highest concentration. The vitamin C content increased significantly after 28 days of storage, with the sliced cabbage kimchi and whole-cabbage kimchi showing larger increases than the radish kimchi. All three types of D. opposita kimchi showed high Ca, K, and Mg contents. The whole-cabbage kimchi maintained salinity at a level of 2.38-2.72% from immediately after preparation to 28 days of storage compared to sliced cabbage kimchi and radish kimchi. Sliced cabbage and whole kimchi cabbage kimchi showed an increase in lightness and a decrease in redness with longer storage duration. Compared to the control groups, the experimental groups (with added D. opposita) showed higher yellowness. The hardness of the three types of kimchi decreased with longer storage duration. In sensory evaluation, there were no significant differences between the control groups and the experimental groups.

Objectives: This study was conducted to examine the subjects' oral health status and changes in the oral environment after mouthwash with effervescent Vitamin C and its intake and to understand the impact on changes in the number of bacteria causing periodontal diseases in the oral cavity based on the oral health status and oral environmental condition. Methods: After obtaining approval from the Institutional Review Board of D-University, 45 people (24 in an experimental group and 21 in a control group) who participated in the oral health program were selected, among visitors of the Clinical Dental Hygienics Laboratory of D. University in B. Results: Based on the subjects' periodontal health status, the number of bacteria causing periodontal diseases in the oral cavity decreased in both experimental and control groups before and after the experiment. However, in the experimental group, it was significant when the Bleeding on Probing(BOP) level was below average, and Calculus index(CAL) was above average, in Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans and the red complex. It was also significant when CAL was above average in the orange complex in the control group. Regarding bacterial changes in periodontal diseases based on the subjects' oral environmental condition, there was a significant change in the Adenosine Tri Phosphate (ATP : intraoral contaminants test) test in the oral cavity in A. actinomycetemcomitans and the red complex in the experimental group and in the O'Leary index in the control group. Further, there was a significant change in the orange complex in the ATP test in the experimental group. Conclusions: A comprehensive analysis of the results revealed that the oral health care program for dental hygiene decreased the number of bacteria causing periodontal diseases in the oral cavity in both experimental and control groups.

Purposes: This study was done to identify factors associated with uncontrolled hemoglobin A1c among patient with diabetes mellitus. Method: The sample was 412 Koreans with diagnosed diabetes aged 40 years or older who participated in the Fifth Korea Health and Nutrition Examination survey, which was a nationwide, cross-sectional survey. Data was analyzed using logistic regression. Uncontrolled hemoglobin A1c rate was 55%. Results: There was a difference between controlled and uncontrolled group in hemoglobin A1c as follows: duration of diabetes, BMI(Body Mass Index), hypertriglyceridemia, vitamin D, sleep duration. After adjusting for confounding factor, longer duration of diabetes (>7 years vs. ${\leq}7$)(Adjusted OR=2.277, 95% CI [1.277-4.060]), presence of hypertriglyceridemia (Adjusted OR=4.019, 95% CI [1.871-8.634]), lower vitamin D level (<20ng/mL vs. ${\geq}20$)(Adjusted OR=2.487, 95% CI[1.411-4.381]), longer sleep duration (6-8 hours vs >8 hours)(Adjusted OR=6.831, 95% CI [1.877-24.855]) were significantly associated with increased odds of uncontrolled hemoglobin A1c. Conclusions: Results show that duration of diabetes, hypertriglyceridemia, vitamin D and sleep duration are significantly related to hemoglobin A1c. Therefore, considering these factors it would be helpful to develop strategies to improve blood glucose control in patients with diabetes.

To extend the shelf-life of spinach after harvest, we investigated the effect of various packaging methods and storage temperature. In case of polypropylene film package, there was no weight loss, but in non-package, remarkably weight loss occurred as storage period extended and storage temperature risen. Content of vitamin C was decreased rapidly at early stage of storage, and decrease of vitamin C in low temperature storage was lower than that of room temperature storage, but its large difference according to packaging method was not observed. In hunter's value on spinach, b value in room temperature storage was higher than that of low temperature storage. In terms of freshness, shelf-life of spinach by low temperature storage $(1{\sim}3^{\circ}C)$ after PP film packaging lasted 34 days, and that by room temperature storage $(10{\sim}15^{\circ}C)$ after PP film packaging lasted 8 days, but that by room temperature storage after non-packaging lasted 3 days.

The effects of feeding diets with different fatty acids on the composition of fatty acids and vitamin E status in maternal milk & serum and pup's serum were studied. Dietary fats(10% by wt) include on oil(CO), soybean oil(SO), perilla seed oil(PO : about 60% , C18 : 3 $\omega$3) and fish oil(FO : rich in C20 : 5$\omega$3, eicosapentaenoic acid = EPA & 22 : 6$\omega$3, docosahexaenoic acid = DHA), Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 200-250g, were fed experimental diets from pregnancy through lactation period. Maternal milk was obtained by gentle squeezing after 30 minutes of oxytocin(0.2 IU, intraperitoneal) injection. The fatty acid compositions of milk and serum were analyzed at day-2 and day-15. The concentrations of vitamin E in maternal milk and serum and pup's serum were also analyzed. The groups of CO, SO and PO which had no DHA in their diet, contained DHA in their milk, The rations of EPA+DHA/arachidonic acid(AA) were higher in PO group than those in either CO or SO group. This seemed to be due not only to more conversion from C18 : 3$\omega$3 to C20 : 5$\omega$3 and C22 : 6$\omega$3 but also to inhibition of C18 : 2$\omega$6 conversion to C20 : 4$\omega$6. More DHA was found in day-2 milk than in day-15 milk. It was also noted that milk contained more DHA was found in day-2 milk than in day-15 milk. It was also noted that milk contained more DHA than serum and this difference was larger in day-2 than in day-15 milk. Even though the concentrations of vitamin E both in maternal serum and milk were lower in PO and FO groups fed highly unsaturated fat than in CO or SO groups, pup's serum did not show a significant difference among all the experimental groups indicating that the pups man secure their essential nutrients by the biomagnification mechanism.

This study examined the effects of dietary supplementation with citrus by-product (CBP) on the growth, feed utilization, innate immunity, and histology of the gills and intestine of juvenile olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus during low water temperature season. A vitamin C-free basal diet was regarded as a control and five other diets were formulated that contained 30 and 300 mg of L-ascorbyl-2-polyphosphate (LAPP) or CBP as vitamin C equivalents/kg diet, or the antibiotic oxytetracycline (OTC) (designated as control, LAPP30, LAPP300, CBP30, CBP300, and OTC, respectively). Olive flounder (initial body weight $44.6{\pm}0.32g$) were fed the six experimental diets to apparent satiation for 9 weeks. Growth and feed utilization were significantly higher in CBP30 than in the control and LAPP groups. The lysozyme activity was significantly higher in CBP30 than in LAPP300. Enterocyte height was significantly higher in CBP30 than in the control. The number of goblet cells was increased significantly with LAPP30, LAPP300, and CBP30. These results demonstrate that CBP can reduce or replace vitamin C and antibiotic in the diet of olive flounder during the low-water-temperature season. The optimal CBP supplementation level seems to be approximately 1%, which is equivalent to 30 ppm vitamin C/kg in the fish diet.

Quarri green peppers were stored at $3^{\circ}C$ and $25^{\circ}C$, and capsaicin, ascorbic acid, chlorophyll, free sugars and surface color of the peppers were measured for 35 days of storage. Capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin of quarri green peppers decreased during storage. The changes were bigger at $25^{\circ}C$ storage than at $3^{\circ}C$. Weight loss and decaying rate of the peppers were affected most by the increasing storage period and temperature. Ascorbic acid diminished remarkably at the beginning of storage period. Free sugars and chlorophyll decreased gradually during storage. Browning of quarri green peppers progressed slowly during storage not in pericarps but in seeds.

The study was performed to investigate the changes of components and volatiles in citrus sudachi juice heated at 40, 50, 60, 70, 80 and $90^{\circ}C$. Total acidity, $^{\circ}Brix$, pH, organic acids, free amino acids, vitamin C, naringin, hesperidine, neohesperidin and volatiles were analyzed in fresh and heated citrus sudachi juices. The major organic acids were citric, malic and oxalic acids and their total contents were 5.27-5.48%. Citric acid content exceeded 92%, malic and oxalic acids were 3.6 and 3.2% in total orgainc acids. The organic acids decreased as heating temperature increased, but the their decreasing contents were 0.3% of total oraganic acids. Sixteen kinds of free amino acids presented in citrus sudachi juice. Major free amino acids were alanine, threonine, proline, aspargine, aspartic acid, serine, tyrosine, and trytophane and minor free amino acids were arginine, valine, glycine, lisoluecine, leucine and histidine. Free amino acids contents decreased as heating temperature increased. Vitamin C contents also decreased from 21.3 mg% to 17.3 mg% as heating temperature increased. Naringin, hesperidine and neohesperidin also slightly decreased from 304 mg% to 297.0 mg% as heating temperature increased. In the fresh and heated juices, a total of 50 volatiles were separated, of which 31 were identified. Limonene dominated in volatiles, followed by ${\gamma}-terpinene,\;{\alpha}-phellandrene$, myrcene and ${\alpha}-pinene$. ${\alpha}-Thujene$ presented in the fresh jucie but did not present in the heated juice above $50^{\circ}C$.

The purpose of this study is to determine the possibility of using Sophorae fructus as natural health food source. To accomplish this purpose, the contents of general and antioxidative nutrients of Sophora fructus were measured. The contents of carbohydrate, crude protein, crude lipid and ash are 75.9%, 16.4%, 2.41%, and 5.2%, respectively, while the calories of Sophora fructus was 337.3 kcal. Total dietary fiber was 15.07% of total carbohydrates. The percentages of water soluble dietary fiber to insoluble dietary fiber were 1.09% and 10.36%, respectively. The protein was composed of a total of 18 different kinds of amino acids. The contents of essential and non-essential amino acids were 2,310.91 mg and 5,218.52 mg. The K was the largest mineral followed by Ca, P and Mg, which means Sophorae fructus is alkali material. The contents of saturated fatty acids, monounsaturated fatty acids and polyunsaturated fatty acids were 24.94%, 32.40%, and 32.86%, respectively. Therefore, the amount of the total unsaturated fatty acid was higher than that of any other plant. The content of vitamin C in Sophorae fructus was higher than that of any other plant, which suggests that it could increase blood elasticity. The content of rutin, which is responsible for capillary vessel permeability, was 1.78%. The contents of water soluble antioxidative materials in 1 mL of water-extracted Sophorae fructus were $4.95\;{\mu}g$ which is comparable to 1,560.96 mmol of vitamin C in antioxidant effect. The general nutrients and other antioxidatant bioactive materials in Sophorae fructus were also potential materials for good health food. It is expected that a follow up study on Sophorae fructus through developing processed food and evaluation of their functional properties would provide useful information as a source of medicinal foods.
