Changes in color intensity of Hololeion maximowiczii(HM) roots which were treated with freeze drying (FD), $50^{\circ}C$ hot air drying (HAD) and $50^{\circ}C$ hot air drying after steam blanching (HADB) were investigated in this study. Color of HADB was yellow-green while other treatments showed bright brown color. In brown color intensity, optical density at 420 nm of FD treatment was highest but HADB treatment showed the highest value in ultra violet spectrum. Water soluble pigment of HM in state of aquous solution was more unstable for heat treatment than that in state of powder. Activation energy for decomposition of the pigment was 20.9 kcal/mole between $90{\sim}100^{\circ}C$ but 50.6 kcal/mole between $80{\sim}90^{\circ}C$.

21세기 양돈산업의 전망은 환경문제, 사료생산, 동물복지 등 다양한 생산제한 요인에 의하여 국제적으로 돈육수급이 불안정할 것으로 예상되지만, 세계적으로 돼지고기 소비는 아시아 지역의 경기회복 등으로 증가추세에 있어 우리의 노력 여하에 따라서는 내수 소비확대 및 수출재개 등 경쟁력 있는 양돈산업으로 발전될 수 있다고 생각합니다. 또한 미래의 양돈산업 전개방향은 소비자 중심의 산업으로 변화되어 돈육의 건강개념과 영양적 가치 증진 및 식품의 안전성에 중점을 둘 것이며, 특히 소비자의 의식변화는 미래 양돈산업을 지배하는 결정적인 요인이 될 것입니다. 한편 유통경영 측면에서는 수직협력 시스템(Vertical co-ordination)과 효율적인 물류유통관리(MSCM) 시스템 도입이 가속화 될 것입니다. 즉, 소비자가$\codt$저마진에 의한 다량판매, 대규모 사육, 생산비 절감 기술개발에 주력할 것이라고 생각됩니다. 이에 따라 우리나라 양돈산업의 국제경쟁력 제고를 위하여 보다 시급히 해결되어야 할 질병$\codt$방역관리, 유통구조 개선, 고품질 돈육생산 및 위생$\codt$품질향상 분야에 있어서 중점 추진되어야 할 내용을 소개하고자 합니다.

Objectives: This study examined the personal, interpersonal and community factors related to food sufficiency and variety among Korean adults using data from the 2017 Community Health Survey. Methods: A total of 228,310 adults aged ≥ 19 years were classified into three groups: food sufficiency with variety, food sufficiency without variety and food insufficiency. Personal factors included sociodemographic characteristics, health behavior and health status. Interpersonal factors included social networking and social activities, and community factors included safety, natural environment, living environment, availability of public transportation and health care services. The association of food sufficiency and variety with interpersonal and community factors was assessed using multivariable logistic regression analyses. Results: Of the total sample, the food-sufficiency-without-variety group and food insufficiency group accounted for 31.5% and 3.2%, respectively. The sociodemographic factors associated with food insufficiency and non-variety were women, ≥ 65 years of age, with low education level, low household income, unemployed, single, and living in areas of small population sizes. There were significant differences in health behavior and health status, interpersonal and community factors among the three groups. Multivariable logistic regression analyses conducted after adjusting for confounding factors showed that lack of social networking and social activities and lower satisfaction derived from community environments were associated with the risk of food insufficiency and non-variety. Conclusions: Our results showed that interpersonal and community factors as well as personal factors were related to food sufficiency and variety. Therefore, public policies to help build social networks and participation in social activities, and improve community environment are needed together with food assistance to overcome the problems of food insufficiency and non-variety.

We investigated stabilities of blue pigment extracted from Gardenia jasminoides at various conditions to check its applicability for beverages. Gardenia blue pigment with maximum absorption at 587 nm was obtained from the reaction of glycine and genipin (aglycone of geniposide). The blue pigment was found to be relatively unstable at acidic pH but very stable at alkaline conditions with half-life values of 102 days and 126 days at PH 9.0 and PH 11.0, respectively. The pigment also showed high thermal stability with half-life value of 55, 18, and 2 days at 50, 70, and 9$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. The addition of inorganic ions, sugars, and amino acids to model beverage containing this blue pigment increased retention rate at room temperature while addition of vitamin C decreased the stability. The sensory evaluation of the model beverage showed that inorganic ions and amino acids increased overall acceptability, indicating that the blue pigments of Gardenia jasminoides can be used as a natural colorant for leverage.

In development of the processed food, it is important not only to make the food delicious but to enhance its storage span and thermal stability without change in color, which greatly affects the tastes. Protopectinase (PPase) from Bacillus subtilis EK11 hydrolyses or dissolves protopectin in the middle lamella of plant tissues with the resultant separation of plant cells from each other, called enzymatic maceration. With the PPase, persimmon was enzymatically macerated to separate cells to primary cell wall without damage. Recovery rates of persimmon treated with PPase and mechanical maceration were 95% and 85%, respectively. Total and reducing sugars, crude protein and fat in the enzymatic maceration were well preserved as in the mechanical maceration. Importantly, over 50% of vitamin C, which is the most unstable component during the mechanical maceration, remained with an intact form for one day after the enzymatic treatment. When the suspensions of persimmon macerated with both treatments were stored at 4$^{\circ}C$ for 9 days, the mechanically macerated persimmon suspension was decolorized, whereas decolorization, was not found in the enzymatically macerated persimmon suspension. Moreover the mechanically macerated persimmon was greatly deteriorated after heat treatment at 10$0^{\circ}C$ for 60 min, whereas cells of the enzymatically separated persimmon suspension appeared to be stable, indicating increased thermal stability Thus, the PPase treatment of persimmon could be a better choice for preparation of highly valuable and functional processed food as well as for increase in preservation period.

Liposomes were prepared from egg yolk phospholipids to study their physical properties and stability at various storage conditions. Under storage conditions at different pH levels, the particle sizes of liposomes increased at the range of pH 1-2, and the absolute values of $\xi$-potentials were reduced at the range of pH 1-4. The leakage of sulforhodamine B (SRB), a fluorescent dye which is encapsulated in the liposome, increased greatly at pH 2-4. At different storage temperatures, the particle size of liposomes increased from the 10 days of storage at $4^{\circ}C$ and the 40 days at 20 and $35^{\circ}C$. The $\xi$-potentials decreased slightly later during storage under 4, 20 and $35^{\circ}C$. At the storage temperature of $50^{\circ}C$, the leakage of SRB was the greatest. Therefore, we concluded that the pH conditions lower than pH 6 and high temperature of $50^{\circ}C$ are not conducive to storing liposomes. The results obtained here may prove helpful in developing liposome-based encapsulation and diagnostic reagents.

Thermal stability of aspartame was investigated as affected by the temperature and pH during heating. The thermal stability study of aspartame heated at $60-100^{\circ}C$ showed that aspartame was degraded more rapidly as the heating temperature increased. Activation energy for thermal degradation was 20.77 kcal/mol. The thermal degradation products, a diketopiperazine (DKP) and ${\alpha}$-aspartylphenylalanine (${\alpha}$-AP), were rapidly increased while the aspartame concentration decreased. The pH change of aspartame solution was rapidly decreased during initial three hours of heating and more significant at high temperature. In the pH range ()』 3-7, aspartame was the most unstable at pH 7 and stable at pH 4. The thermal degradation rate contants were 0.827 at pH 7, 0.286 at pH 6, 0.072 at pH 5 and 0.045 at pH 4 during initial heating at $100^{\circ}C$.

The SSH100-10 bacterial strain, which exhibits strong antifungal (anti-mold and anti-yeast) activity, was isolated from traditional korean soysauce aged 100 years. The strain was identified as Bacillus velezensis based on Gram-staining, the biochemical properties and 16S rRNA gene sequence determination. B. velezensis SSH100-10 showed strong proteinase activity and NaCl tolerance, but did not produce enterotoxin. Two-antifungal compounds from B. velezensis SSH100-10 were purified using SPE, preparative HPLC, and reverse phase-HPLC. The purified antifungal compounds were identified as $C_{14}$ and $C_{15}$ iturin through MALDI-TOF-MS and amino acid composition analysis. The stability characteristics of the antifungal compounds after temperature, pH, and enzyme treatments suggested that B. velezensis SSH100-10 produced more than two antifungal compounds; pH-stable $C_{14}$ iturin A and $C_{15}$ iturin A, and unidentified pH-unstable compounds. The results suggested that B. velezensis SSH100-10 can be used in soybean fermentation as a starter. Moreover it has potential as a biopreservative in the food and feed industry and as a biocontrol agent in the field of agriculture.

In development of the processed food, it is important not only to make the food delicious but to enhance its storage span and thermal stability without change of the food quality in color, which greatly affects the tastes of customers. Protopectinase (PPase) from Bacillus subtilis EK11 hydrolyses or dissolves protopectin in the middle lamella of plant tissues with the resultant separation of plant cells from each other, called enzymatic maceration. With the PPase, Kiwifruit was enzymatically macerated to separate cells to primary cell wall without damage. Yields of kiwifruit treated with PPase and mechanical maceration were 82% and 60%, respectively. Total and reducing sugars, crude protein and fat in the enzymatic maceration were well preserved as in the mechanical maceration. Importantly, over 95% of vitamin C, which is the most unstable component in application of the mechanical maceration, remained with intact form for one day after the enzymatic treatment. When the suspensions of kiwifruit macerated with both treatments had been stored at $4^{\circ}C for 6 days, the suspension of kiwifruit mechanically macerated was decolorized. whereas decolorization was not found in the enzymatically macerated kiwifruit. Moreover, the mechanically macerated kiwifruit was greatly deteriorated after heat treatment at $100^{\circ}C for 60 min ; the cell suspension of the exzymatically separated kiwifruit appeared to be stable, indicating the thermal stability. Thus, the PPase treatment could be a better choice for preparation of the highly valuable and functional processed food of kiwifruit as well as for prolonging the preservation period of the processed kiwifruit.

The physical and chemical stabilities of carthamin of red pigment from safflower petals were investigated at various conditions of pHs, temperatures, inorganic ions, sugars, light and polysaccharides. The half-life values at pH 3.0, 5.0, 9.0 and 11.0 were 5.3, 5.0, 11.0 and 45.0 h, respectively, at $25^{\circ}C$. Therefore, carthamin is unstable at acidic condition. Carthamin was red, orange and yellow at acidic, neutral and alkaline solutions, respectively. At pH 3.0, carthamin was thermally unstable and the half lives were 3.62, 9.05 and 48.2min at $90^{\circ}C$, $70^{\circ}C$ and $50^{\circ}C$, respectively. Among various inorganic ions, $Al^{3+}$ stabilized carthamin at acidic condition. At pH 5.0, carboxymethylcellulose prolonged the half-lives of carthamin at $25{\sim}90^{\circ}C$. Carthamin was very sensitive to light (20,000 lux) and the half-life was 2.32 min at pH 3.0.
