In this study, the physicochemical properties, antioxidant capacities, and volatile flavor compounds of oriental melon wine prepared by freeze concentration after heat treatment (HA), ascorbic acid treatment (AAT), and heat and ascorbic acid treatment (HAAT) were investigated. During fermentation period, the melon wine by HAAT showed greater reduction of soluble solids and reducing sugar contents compared to other treatments. In addition, the melon wine treated with HAAT also showed a higher L value and lower browning index compared to other treatments. After aging, free sugar including fructose, and organic acids including citric acid, succinic acid, and malic acid were detected in all samples. For antioxidant activities and contents, HAAT treated wine showed greater antioxidant activities and total phenolic contents than those of others. In GC/MS analysis, a total of 33 volatile flavor compounds were identified. In the principal component analysis of volatile flavor compounds, principal components 1 and 2 represented 88.15% of the whole date distribution and showed opposite tendencies. Taken together, HAAT enhanced the antioxidant activities and sensory properties of oriental melon wine. Moreover, freeze concentration gave the different volatile flavor characteristics in oriental melon wine.

This study was conducted to ferment high quality vinegar by using Omija fruit. Strains of bacteria producing acetic acid were isolated from spoiled Omija wine (OV1 and OV2) and traditional rice vinegar (RA). The bacterium was from optimally-oxidized Omija wine containing 6.0% ethanol and from Omija vinegar with 5.21% acetic acid by 14 days of fermentation. The Omija vinegar got the highest sensory score (5.80) among several commercial vinegars. The Omija vinegar showed a potent antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas fluorescens by the paper disc test, while Omija wine had limited antibacterial activity against S. aureus and P. fluorescens. The diameter of the clear zone formed by the paper disc test using Omija vinegar was not less than 9.5 mm. The DPPH free radical-scavenging activity of Omija wine was higher than that from Omija water extracts. The nitrite scavenging ability of Omija wine (36.98% of all nitrites present) and vinegar (31.14%) was higher than that from Omija water extracts (22.53%). Omija vinegar exhibited strong antibacterial and antioxidant activities. In conclusion, we prepared high quality vinegar from dried Omija.

We sought to ferment wine from mulberry (Morus alba) juice. The soluble solid content was $9.5{\sim}14.5^{\circ}brix$ on day 6 of fermentation, and gradually fell later; sugar was not further consumed when $3^{\circ}brix$ was attained. Alcohol content rose dramatically on day 6 of fermentation, being 4.5% (v/v) at fermentation temperatures of 16C and 18C, 6.5% (v/v) at 20C, and 8.0% (v/v) at 25C, rising further to 10.5~11.5% (v/v) on day 48, at higher culture temperatures. Citric acid, malic acid, and oxalic acid were present in mulberries. The levels of both citric and oxalic acid fell after fermentation, whereas malic acid concentration increased. All of fructose, glucose, maltose, and sucrose were fermented. Electron-donating ability (EDA) was elevated to over 90% of the control value in mulberry juice diluted to 40% (v/v). SOD-like activities in juice and wine were 80.1% and 72.1% of the control value. Nitrite-scavenging abilities (NSAs) were 86.2% and 85.2% of control in undiluted juice and wine, respectively. Mulberry juice had an activation level higher than that of mulberry wine, but functionality neither rose nor fell after fermentation. Insensory evaluation, the overall wine score was better than average, at 5.00, demonstrating the commercial potential of mulberry wine.

Effects of dietary taurine on the abdominal fat weight and serum and liver concentrations of cholesterol were investigated with male broiler chicks. One-day old chicks were allocated to one of three taurine supplemented diets: 0 (control), 1 and 2%. Body weight gain of chicks fed the diet supplemented with 2% taurine decreased by 6% compared to the control (P$\prec$0.05). However, feed conversion ratio was not different among treatments. Liver weight and ratio of liver weight to body weight showed no difference among treatments. Abdominal fat weights were lower in 1% and 2% taurine supplementations by 14% and 20%, respectively, than that of the control (P$\prec$0.05). Serum concentrations of triglyceride, glucose, glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase and glutamic pyruvic transaminase were not different among treatments. However, serum concentrations of total cholesterol were higher in 1% and 2% taurine supplementations by 10% and 12%, respectively, than that of the control (P$\prec$0.05). Also serum concentrations of HDL-cholesterol increased in 1% and 2% taurine supplementations by 20% and 34%, respectively, compared to the control (P$\prec$0.05). Concentrations of total cholesterol in liver decreased in 1% and 2% taurine supplementation by 9% and 13%, compared to the control (P$\prec$0.05). Also concentrations of HDL-cholesterol in liver were lower in 1.0% and 2.0% taurine supplementation by 20% and 38%, respectively, than that of the control (P$\prec$0.05). These results showed that taurine supplementation decreased the fat storage in abdominal cavity and affected on the cholesterol metabolism in liver of broiler chicks.

For the development of mulberry wine, we investigated its optimum fermentation conditions as well as quality changes during fermentation. The physicochemical characteristics of the mulberry fruit used in the study were pH 4.56, 0.50% titratable acidity, and 13.0 $^{circ}Brix$ soluble solids. The mulberry wine fermented with Saccharomyces cerevisiae KCCM 12224 (Sc-24) at 24 $^{circ}Brix$ soluble solids and $26^{circ}C$ showed excellent characteristics in terms of ethanol production, titratable acidity, and redness. The sucrose, fructose, and glucose contents of the mulberry wine drastically decreased with fermentation time. The citric acid content was maintained during the fermentation period, and malic acid decreased, but lactic and succinic acids increased. The cyanidin-3-glucoside content, a major anthocyanin pigment, of the mulberry wine drastically decreased from 195.5 mg% at the initial stage of fermentation to 15.37 mg% at 2 days of fermentation. However, cyanidin-3-rutinoside decreased gradually. In summary, a mulberry wine of high quality was made by fermentation for 8 days at $26^{\circ}C$ using mashed mulberry fruit containing $24^{\circ}Brix$ soluble solids, after adding 200 ppm $K_2S_2O_5$ and inoculating with 3%(v/v) Sc-24.

Kiwifruit wine was prepared with the domestic new cultivars 'Jecy Sweet' and 'Jecy Gold', and quality characteristics were investigated during fermentation with Saccharomyces bayanus Lalvin and Saccharomyces cerevisiae Fermivin and aging for 120 days at $15^{\circ}C$. Total acidities were 0.94% and 1.22% for 'Jecy Sweet' and 'Jecy Gold' at the beginning, respectively, and increased gradually during fermentation; highest acidities were 1.49% and 1.26%, respectively, on the 6th day of fermentation regardless of yeast strain. Alcohol content increased greatly from the 4th day of fermentation and was highest (10.2%) in 'Jecy Sweet' fermented by S. bayanus Lalvin, followed by 9.2% in 'Jecy Sweet' fermented by S. cerevisiae Fermivin and 9.4% in 'Jecy Gold' fermented by Lalvin and Fermivin on the 12th day of fermentation. Soluble solid content was $24.8^{\circ}Brix$ at the beginning and decreased gradually during fermentation. The lowest soluble solid content was $9.7^{\circ}Brix$ on the 6th day of fermentation regardless of kiwifruit cultivar and yeast strain. Total phenols in 'Jecy Sweet' (1,127 mg/L) were 1.32-fold higher than those in 'Jecy Gold' (848 mg/L) and decreased greatly until the 6th day of fermentation, after which they increased slightly until the 12th day of fermentation. During aging, total phenols increased until the 30th day and were maintained for 120 days. Quality characteristics of kiwifruit wines were similar between the two yeast strains but were different between kiwifruit cultivars. Contents of ethanol and total phenolics were higher in 'Jecy Sweet' wine than in 'Jecy Sweet' wine.

In this study, the brewing and quality characteristics of a variety of honey and yeast strains in Korea were investigated. After fermenting acacia honey, chestnut honey, citrus honey, and mixed flower honey using commercial yeast, the quality changes during fermentation were investigated. Chestnut honey wine (mead) and mixed flower mead showed the highest ethanol contents of 11.9 and 11.3%, respectively after fermenting for 8 days at $25^{\circ}C$. Acacia mead and citron (Chinese lemon) mead showed 5.0 and 8.2% ethanol contents, respectively. Mixed mead, which fermented with acacia honey and mixed flower honey, in order to advance sensory properties, showed the best sensory properties, generating 10.9% ethanol, while another product with citron honey and mixed flower honey generated 11.1% of ethanol but with a lower sensory value. When adding corium peels to the mixed mead of acacia honey and mixed flower honey, the ethanol content was not increased by addition of corium peels into mixed mead, but its total acceptability was increased by addition of 2% corium peels. To check the mead clarification, it was treated with 0.6% of bentonite and filtered; then, its turbidity was observed over a storage period. The safe result for precipitation was shown at the condition of storing at $10^{\circ}C$ for 15 days with 0.24 NTU (Nepthelometric Turbidity Unit).

In vivo metabolism study was carried out to find out the biochemical or metabolic tolerance mechanism between Diamond backmoth (DBM), Plutella xylostella and Beet armywarm (BAW), Spodoptera exigua to flupyrazofos. They showed some differences between the DBM and BAW. About 20% of flupyrazofos applied to the 3rd instar larvae of DBM was metabolized within 1 h and about 50% of that was metabolized within 4 h. The metabolites of flupyrazofos-oxon in 3rd instar larvae of DBM were increased 10 times more at 4 h than 1 h after application. The amounts of flupyrazol were nearly same between at 1 h and 4 h. The amount of unknown and origin increased 2 and 3 times more at 1 h than 4 h after application, respectively. In the 4th instar BAW larva, about 50% of flupyrazofos was metabolized within 1 h and about 70% of that was metabolized within 4 h. As metabolites, the amounts of flupyrazofos-oxon increased 2 times more at 4 h than 1 h after application. The amounts of flupyrazol increased 4 times more at 4 h than 1 h after application. The amount of unknown and origin increased 2.5 and 2 times more at 4 h than 1 h after application, respectively. From the study, it is supposed that hydrolytic enzyme, esterase, cleave the alkyl bond of flupyrazofos and conjugates with flupyrazofos. This seems to be the main tolerance mechanism of BAW to flupyrazofos.

Five antioxidative active substances were isolated from the EtOAc layer (20 g/56.2 g) of Korean black raspberry (Rubus coreanus Miquel) wine (11 L, black raspberry 15.7 kg fresh wt. eq.) by various column chromatography and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Proton nuclear magnetic resonance ($^1H$-NMR) spectroscopy and gas chromatography Electro Ionization-Mass Spectrometry (GC-EI-MS) identified these as 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (1, 0.1 mg), 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (2, 0.3 mg), 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-phenol (3, 0.6 mg; tyrosol), pyrocatechol (4, 0.3 mg), 3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoic acid ethyl ester (5, 0.6 mg; ethyl gallate). The presence of 1 and 2 in Korean black raspberry has previously been reported. However, the presence of 3-5 in Korean black raspberry, and the identification of 1-5 from the Korean black raspberry wine have never before been reported.
