Soy sauce was prepared with the addition of Gorosoe and bamboos sap instead of tap water to make ordinary soy sauce, respectively. The changes of such compounds during fermentation as minerals, free sugars, organic acids and free amino acids were analyzed. Total mineral contents in the 90 days fermented soy sauce from Gorosoe and bamboos sap were increased by 2.0 and 4.4 times as compared with those of control samples, respectively. Especially the increase of calcium, potassium and magnesium in soy sauce of sapes were derived from those of saps. The sugars were found to be only glucose and galactose in control samples, but they were detected not only above sugar but also fructose and sucrose in soy sauce of saps. Butyric acid in detected organic acid were dominant in all stray sauce samples. In the free amino acid composition of control samples, leucine, phenylalanine, isoleucine, lysine and glutamic acid were abundant amino acids. Amino acid such as isoleucine, leucine and phenylalanine were decreased, the rest 11 kinds of amino acids containing phosphoserine were increased during the fermentation of control samples. Increasing and decreasing patterns of free amino acids during fermentation of sap soy sauce were similar to control samples. Total nitrogen, amino acid nitrogen and ammonia nitrogen were increased during their fermentation.

To produce low salt fermented anchovy by an accelerated method with Asp. oryzae and Bacillus sp. koji and taste properties after the 60 day fermentation were examined. The main free amino acids of 60 day fermented anchovy paste were valine, isoleucine, proline, alanine, lysine, glutamic acid and aspartic acid. Total amount of free amino acids was the highest in non koji anchovy paste wit 2,624.76mg%. Among the koji added samples, Asp. oryzae koji added on was the highest in the amount o free amino acids. Hypoxanthine accounted for 84.14~95.4% of total nucleotides and their related compounds; Asp. oryzae koji added anchovy paste was the highest in nucleotides other related. Citric acid and lactic acid accounted for 94.9~96.7% of total non-volatile organic acids; Asp. oryzae koji added sample was the highest in non-volatile organic acids with 287.93mg%. The Hunter a and b values gradually increased during the fermentation, but the L value decreased until day 30 or 40 and increased steadily after that. The a and b values were higher in the use of Asp. oryzae koji than in Bccillus sp. koji, but the L value was to the contrary. The Asp. oryzae koji added anchovy paste was good in the aspect of color and taste compared to others. In the aspect of odor, the anchovy paste using the mixture of Asp. oryzae and Bacillus sp. koji was the best. Overall aceptability of sensory evaluation was higher in the mixture of Asp. oryzae and Bacillus sp. koji tan in the others.

Korean melon (Cucumis melo L.) is an environment in which most farming work can affect the increase in musculoskeletal diseases, and the stems are attracted to the ground in order to grow no-heating cultivation. In this study, growth and productivity were compared according to the type of high-bed. The narrower the surface area at the bottom of the high-bed, the faster the initial growth, which was advantageous. The bed is which the height if 70 cm, the surface temperature has risen due to the increase in direct solar radiation inflow since April, requiring side light blocking to block the inflow of solar radiation. In terms of fruit quality, the 200 cm width treatment had higher fruit sugar content and better hardness than the 160 cm treatment. From April to September, the total yield was 6.8 kg/plant of treatment A, 8.7 kg/plant of treatment B, 5.8 kg/plant of treatment C, treatment B mainly 50% higher than treatment C, and 27% higher than treatment A. Therefore, the bed form suitable for Korean melon high bed is 200 cm wide, 40 cm high between the surface and the bed, and the surface of the passage between the beds is 30cm high from the ground to the bed.

Drought resistance and salt resistance of seedlings were compared with the polyethylene glycol(P.E.G) and NaCl solutions of the same osmotic potential($\Psi_\pi$=-10 bar). Plant height, seedling dry weight, chlorophyll content and leaf water potential decreased while the free proline content increased more in the P.E.G. than in the NaCl solution. Free amino acids increased 2.6 times in the P.E.G. solution and 3.6 times in the NaCl solution more than in the untreated(Hoagland's solution). Free proline occupied 66% and 61% of the content of total amino acids under water stress and salt stress, respectively. Besides free proline, phenylalanine in the P.E.G. solution and phenylalanine, alanine and asparagine in the NaCl solution increased distinctly. In short, it was shown that water and salt stress responses in seedling stage were relatively similar.

The study analyzed the effects of salt concentration [high salt (HS) and low salt (LS)] and sodium nitrite ($NaNO_2$), which are typically utilized in Korean processing facilities, on fatty acid composition, free amino acids, microbial counts and sensory characteristics of processed dry-cured ham. Four different treatments were considered: three hams (11.30 kg) salted with 92 g/kg salt (w/w) (HS), three hams (10.65 kg) treated with HS and 100 ppm $NaNO_2$ (HS+$NaNO_2$), three hams (11.42 kg) salted with 62 g/kg salt (w/w) (LS), and three hams (10.62 kg) treated with LS and 100 ppm $NaNO_2$ (LS+$NaNO_2$). Fatty acid composition analysis revealed significantly (p<0.05) higher saturated fatty acid and lower (p<0.05) unsaturated fatty acid in the HS+$NaNO_2$ group compared with the other groups. Glutamate, alanine and lysine free amino acids were higher than the other free amino acids. The processing conditions did not significantly affect the free amino acids of biceps femoris muscles, except for the proline content (p>0.05). In sensory evaluation, the fermentation aroma of the LS group was higher than that of the HS group. The aerobic counts consistently ranged from from $2.3{\times}10^2$ to $1.11{\times}10^4$ CFU/g. Escherichia coli including strain O157:H7, Staphylococcus aureus, and Salmonella spp. were not detected.

The chemical composition characteristics of jujube wine using different preparation methods including extraction in -soju (25%) and fermentation were investigated. The jujube wine was prepared by soaking in soju using- whole fruit(WJ-S1) or seed-removed fruit(WJ-S2). Fermentations of the jujube wine were started by using whole fruit(WJ-F1), seed-removed fruit(WJ-F2) or extracts of whole fruit(WJ-F3) after adding 24% sucrose. The pH of all samples decreased from a range of 4.92~5.42 at the start time to 3.66~4.97 after 100 days. The treatment WJ-F3 showed the lowest pH among all treatments. Total acid content was 0.67~1.01% at the initial stage and then changed to 0.51~0.88% after 100 days. Total sugar and reducing sugar contents were 1.20~13.8% and 0.50~4.45% at initial stage and then changed to 1.53~4.52% and 1.75~3.82% after 100 days respectively. These sugars decreased during the preparation and fermentation of the jujube wine. The amounts of free sugars including fructose, glucose, and sucrose ranged from 1.53~4.52% and treatment WJ-F3 showed the highest amount(1.95~13.64%) compared the other treatment. Glucose level were high in treatment WJ-S1 and WJ-S2, and fructose was increased in treatments WJ-F1, WJ-F2, and WJ-F3 after 60 days. Amino nitrogen content was 0.02~0.11% after 20 days and 0.07~0.14% after 40 days respectively. Solid content was 2.68~7.76% at the initial fermentation stage and changed to 4.81~9.73% after 100 days. Hunter color(L values) were 88.45~96.74 at the initial stage and then changed to 92.62~100.45 after 100 days. Preference tests a significant difference between the two types (extraction and fermentation) of jujube wine. And treatment WJ-S2 received the highest preference scores among the all treatments.

We used pears to manufacture wine, and analyzed changes in pH, acidity and ethanol and sugar content during fermentation. Pear wine with added ginger (to improve quality) did not differ from ginger-free wine in pH or acidity level. The ethanol content of pear wine was the highest (13.0%, v/v) inpear wine with 0.1% (w/v) added ginger compared to pear wine with no ginger, and sensory tests examining taste and color yielded the highest scores for pear wine with 0.2% (w/v) ginger. To assess storage stability, pear wine was treated for 30 minutes at $55^{\circ}C$, $60^{\circ}C$, $65^{\circ}C$, or $70^{\circ}C$. Unheated pear wine showed rapid changes in pH and acidity level after 30 days of storage, whereas pear wine treated for 30 minutes at $60^{\circ}C$ did not show such changes. Total organic acid levels in pear wine increased by 0.71% and 0.89% (v/v), respectively. The free sugar level in pear wine decreased from 12.05% to 3.13% (w/v). Turning to phenolic compounds, caffeic acid, catechin, and epicatechin contents in pears were 1.64, 1.40, and 0.23 mg/100mL, respectively, with diverse compositions. Caffeic acid levels in pear wine decreased sharply to 0.12 mg/100 mL upon fermentation, whereas free catechin inpear wine increased to 1.16 mg/100 mL compared with 0.28 mg/100 mL in pears. Free arbutin increased from 8.34 mg/100 mL in pears to 10.39 mg/100 mL in pear wine. The free amino acid content of pear wine was 118.5 g/100 mL, but the levels of serine, alanine, glutamic acid, and aspartic acid decreased sharply upon fermentation, with corresponding increases in tyrosine, GABA, lysine, and arginine.

The purpose of this study was to examine the qualities of optimized muffins with germinated brown rice soaked in mycelial culture broth of Phellinuslinteus (GBRP) using response surface methodology. Firstly, general compositions of optimized muffins with GBRP were higher than that of control and total sugar contents were similar. However, the total free amino acid and constitutional amino acid contents except for GABA were lower than those of control. Starch hydrolysis in control was higher than in optimized muffins with GBRP, whereas protein digestibility and protein efficiency ratio were not. The weights of optimized muffins with GBRP were higher than that of control (p<0.01), whereas height (p<0.01) and pH (p<0.001) were similar. The hardness (p<0.05) and chewiness (p<0.05) of optimized muffins with GBRP were higher compared to control; adhesiveness, springiness, and gumminess were similar, but cohesiveness (p<0.01) was not. The flavor (p<0.05) and taste (p<0.01) of optimized muffins with GBRP were higher than those of control; appearance, texture and overall acceptability were similar, but color (p<0.05) was not. The total polyphenol contents (p<0.01), DPPH radical scavenging activity (p<0.01), and superoxide dismutase-like activity (p<0.05) of optimized muffins with GBRP were higher than those of control, but nitrite scavenging activity was similar.
