In this study, the physicochemical properties and anti-wrinkle effect of polysaccharides with different molecular weights from Gloiopeltis furcata were investigated. Crude polysaccharides were isolated by viscozyme treatment followed by ethanol precipitation and lyophilization. Crude polysaccharides were hydrolyzed by acid (0.1 N HCl) and the molecular weight fractions were generated by centrifugal filter (<10 kDa, 10 to 100 kDa, and 100 kDa>). The yield of polysaccharides with different molecular weight fractions was 8.4-39.6%. The major constituents in molecular weight fractions were total sugar (81.37-85.82%), uronic acid (27.89-32.85 g/100 g), sulfate (33.38-39.04%), and protein (0.35-3.16%) The L, a, and b value of the 100 kDa group were decreased, but viscosity increased. The oxygen radical absorbance capacity of the 100 kDa group at $180.07{\mu}M$ was the highest among groups. The protective effects of 100 kDa group at 0.5 and $5{\mu}g/mL$ against $H_2O_2$-induced cytotoxicity in L132 cell were 87.34% and 103.85%, respectively. The matrix metalloproteinase-1 activity of 100 kDa group decreased in a dose-dependent manner. The pro-collagen synthesis activity of 100 kDa group at $0.05-0.5{\mu}g/mL$ was 64.91-77.80%. The polysaccharides with different molecular weights from Gloiopeltis furcata investigated herein are useful as a potential candidate for cosmedical materials.

In this study, we investigated the quality characteristics of cookies containing mesangi powder (MP). The cookies were stored at 30 $^{\circ}C$ for 28 days. The pH of the dough decreased significantly upon the addition of MP. The spread factor of the cookies also decreased significantly with more MP added to the cookie recipe. The loss rate of cookies was significantly higher in 3% and 5% cookies than in control and 7% cookies. The leavening rate was significantly decreased upon the addition of MP. Hardness was significantly higher in 5% and 7% cookies than in control cookies. The L, a, b values of cookies were significantly reduced at higher MP content. The results of sensory evaluation showed that cookies made with MP did not differ significantly from the control, except in color and moistness. The mineral contents of cookies increased in dose-dependent fashion with MP concentration. The acid and peroxide values were lower in cookies with 5% MP than other cookies.

Effects of packaging material and oxygen absorbant on physical and chemical properties of Yukwu were studied during storage to develop packaging conditions. The packaging materials used were PET/EVOH $(16\;{\mu}m)/PL$ : P1 and PET/EVOH $(24\;{\mu}m)/PL$ : P2 with or without oxygen absorbent (E1A : P1 and E2A : P2 for w/ $O_2$, absorbent, E1EA : P1 and E2EA : P2 for w/o $O_2$, absorbent). Color values for Yukwu indicated that L values of E1A, E1EA, E2A and E2EA were decreased during storage while those b values were increased. Hardness and chewiness of Yukwa were generally decreased, however those of E1A and E1EA were rather increased after 6 weeks of storage. Acid value of E2A had maintained less than 2.0 during 12 weeks of storage. E1A, E2A had the below of 20 in peroxide during 12 weeks. Aroma data by using electronic nose showed that there was no difference after 6 week storage time in different packaging materials. Sensory evaluation (Yukwa odor and rancid odor) showed very similar results with electronic nose one. E2A had the highest value of overall acceptability for sensory evaluation. Hardness and cheweness in physical measurement results had the highest correlation with hardness, crispness, overall-acceptability in sensory evaluation results.

In order to know the effects of hot-water extracts of starches on gel formation and gel properties, some physicochemical properties and molecular distribution of the extracts were measured. Also, after acid-hydrolysis of starch gels and extract gels, extent of hydrolysis and $\overline{D.P}._n$, and molecular distribution of hydrolysis-residue were measured. Extraction ratio of grain starches (buckwheat, corn, rice, and wheat) were $4.0{\sim}6.6%$. The ratio of acorn and mungbean starches were 11.7 and 13.5%, respectively. Iodine affinity of the extracts was $17.2{\sim}17.7%$ in starches using for Mook, SM(acorn, buckwheat, and mungbean), $13.7{\sim}14.9%$ in starches not using for Mook, SNM(corn, rice, and wheat). Blue value was also higher in SM than in SNM. $\overline{D.P}._n$. of extracts of SM were bigger than those of SNM. In molecular distribution experiment, amylopectin fraction was not found from the extracts except rice starch extract. The extent of acid hydrolysis of the starch gels were $70{\sim}84%$ after 60 days, and the extent of the extract gels were $22{\sim}35%$. The extent of hydrolysis of starch gels and extract gels made with SM were lower than those of SNM.

The effects of feeding citrus byproducts on the quality of Korean native chickens were investigated during cold storage. Two samples of Korean native chickens (39 weeks old, $1.30{\pm}0.5$ kg) were used for the study: T0 (chickens not fed citrus byproducts) and T1(chickens fed a 4% citrus byproduct diets since from age 17 weeks until 39 weeks old). The breast and thigh meat of each sample were vacuum-packed, and then used for experiments on change in Hunter's color values, acid values (AV), peroxide values (POV), thiobarbituric acid (TBA) values, electron donating ability (EDA), volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) and total plate count during storage for two weeks at 3C. Changes in $L^*$, $a^*$ and $b^*$ values were slower in T1 than in T0. T1 showed slower increment rates for AV, POV, and TBA values during storage, as well as better antioxidant activity, than T0. T1 showed slower increment rates for VBN and total plate counts during storage than T0. Thus, feeding citrus byproducts suppressed change in Hunter's color value, rancidity, and freshness in breast and thigh meat during storage, and resulted in higher EDA value (p<0.05), which implies that the diet has positive effects in maintaining high meat quality.

The objectives of this study were to analyze the physiological and antimicrobial activities of wheat germ. The fatty acid components of the wheat germ included palmitic, stearic, oleic, linoleic, and linolenic acids. Furthermore, the acid value was 8.5, the peroxide value was 7.1, the iodine value was 126.8, the saponification value was 159.7, and the refractive index was 1.547. In the unsaponifiable matter, the total phenol concentration extracted by ethanol, along with physiological activity were 2.02% and 0.45%, respectively, and the amount of flavonoids and activity were 6.89% and 6.90%, respectively. The amount of flavonoids was larger than the phenol concentration in the wheat germ. In addition, the nitritescavenging ability of the wheat germ was lower than ascorbic acid but greater than BHT and tocopherol. The peroxide value in the linoleic acid changed over 5 days, presenting as 0.67, 22.70, 44.25, 5.81, and 91.17 meq/kg, and increases were also consistently shown as time passed for the ethanol extractions and unsaponifiable. Additional data showed that antimicrobial effects could not be detected in the wheat germ concentration or method of extraction.

Scaled-up production of oil containing diacylglycerol (DAG), so called diacylglycerol-oil, was produced by lipase-catalyzed reaction. Mixture of soybean oil and glyceryl monooleate with 1:2 molar ratio was esterified with Lipozyme RMIM in a batch-type reactor at 55$^{\circ}C$ and 300 rpm during 6 hr. After short-path distillation for removal of monoacylglycerol and free fatty acid as reaction by-products, diacylglycerol-oil mainly consisted of DAG (29 area%) and TAG (71 area%). The major compositional fatty acids in diacylglycerol-oil were oleic (44.36 wt%), and linoleic acids (37.36 wt%). Acid value and iodine value of diacylglycerol-oil were 0.13 and 112.6, respectively. Solid fat content (SFC) of diacylglycerol-oil was observed after differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis in which three melting peaks at -25.0, 0.1, and 11.2$^{\circ}C$ were shown.

Nutritional constituents and physicochemical properties of lipids of forest resources were studied in order to examine their practical utilization in the lipid industry. In this study, Garae, Dongback, Mougwi, and Muwhanja were chosen as sources of fat-soluble components. Fatty acid profiles of forest resources showed more than 80% polyunsaturated fatty acids in total fatty acids. For total tocopherol contents, Garae showed higher content than others; moreover, Dongback was a good source of ${\alpha}$-tocopherol. Phytosterols of forest resources ranged from $55.96{\pm}2.23$ to $194.94{\pm}21.42mg$/100 g, and Muwhanja showed the highest phytosterol contents. Chemical properties such as acid value, peroxide value, and p-anisidine value showed good oxidative stability of lipids of forest resources. For physical properties, browning intensity and color parameters were studied. Induction times, as an indicator of oxidative stability, were measured and ranged from $0.70{\pm}0.01$ to $18.40{\pm}1.02h$ in four forest resources. Taken together, contents of lipid constituents and physicochemical properties can be used as an important preliminary database for utilization of lipids of forest resources.
