This study was executed to determine the cumulative dietary risk of PAHs exposed by food ingestion. Food samples including barbecued beef, barbecued pork, grilled chicken, ham, bacon and vegetable oil which were collected from food markets. These samples were saponified, extracted and cleaned up to purify PAHs, and then the purified sample solutions were analyzed by HPLC-FL. Generally, the levels of total PAHs in barbecued beef (0.2 ppb), bacon (0.3 ppb), barbecued pork (0.7 ppb), ham (0.8 ppb), and vegetable oil (1.2 ppb) were low, whereas the level of total PAHs in grilled chicken (9.3 ppb) was significantly high. For the exposure assessment of PAHs due to food ingestion, PAHs levels converted into TEQ$_{BaP}$, the average body weight for 20-73 age group and consumed levels of food proposed from report on the National Health and Nutrition Survey were used. The estimated lifetime average daily intake of dietary PAHs was 4.32${\times}$10$^{-4}$ $\mu\textrm{g}$-TEQ$_{BaP}$kg/day as the mean value. The dietary risk adjusted to cancer potency of benzo(a)pyrene as 7.3 (mg/kg/day)$^{-1}$ was 3.44${\times}$10$^{-6}$ based on current data.ata.

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.

This study was performed for development of new analytical method of monascus pigments in foods. In this method, analysis of monascus pigment in foods has been carried out by detection of monascin and ankaflavin of the main color component of monascus pigment as indicator compounds. Monascin and ankaflavin were isolated and identified by TLC, HPLC, Prep. HPLC, $^{1}H-NMR$ and Mass spectrophotometer. The analysis of monascin and ankaflavin in foods such as massal, sausage, mixed press ham, mixed fish sausage, semi-dried sausage and syrup was performed by using reverse phase high performance liquid chromatograph with Capcell Pak C18 column at wave length 390 nm. The quantitative results of monascin were as follows : $0.01{\sim}3.31\;{\mu}g/g$ item in massal, $0.05{\sim}0.10\;{\mu}g/g$ in mixed fish sausage, and $0.34{\sim}0.35\;{\mu}g/g$ in semi-dried sausage. But the quantitative results of ankaflavin were as follows: $0.02{\sim}0.89\;{\mu}g/g$ in massal, ankaflavin were not founded in other samples.

A survey on the kimchi preference among elementray school students in Pusan was conducted in April of 1995 to get basic information needed for the development of special kimchi for the children. Total of 1100 children in 2nd, 4th and 6th grade from public and private elementary school participated in this survey. Sixty eight percent of students answered that they like kimchi. However, kimchi preference(17.6%) among other side dishes-pork cuttlet.ham.sausage(54.1%), egg roll(9.4%), soysauced beef(8.2%), toasted laver(6.3%), bean sprout namul(3.0%), danmooji(1.0%), and squash namul(0.4%)-was relatively low. It can be interpreted that elementary school student prefers processed food specially animal food to kimchi. The hot taste of the kimchi was the number one reason of their dislike of kimchi, and it was the most important reason for those also like kimchi. Thus it can be thought as the representative taste of kimchi. Chinese cabbage kimchi was found to be the most favorite kimchi and kakdugi(seasoned pickles of cubed radish), nabak-kimchi(mildly seasoned water based kimchi that is mixture of chinese cabbage and cubed radish) and jchonggag kimcchi(seasoned pickles of pony tail radish) and cucumber kimchi were followed in order. Among the various ingredients in kimchim children like cabbage best but they didn't like galic, ginger, green onion and fermented fish sauce which give strong flavor in kimchi.

Changes in nitrite content, TBARS content and color of meat products during storage were examined as part of studies addressing the reduction of residual nitrite and to ensure the safety of meat products. All 4 kinds of domestic meat product tested, Vienna sausage, bacon, smoked-ham and Dduggalbi, manufactured by C and L domestic companies had very low contents of residual nitrite, for below the legal tolerance limit of 70 ppm, and the residual nitrite decreased with storage. The reduction in nitrite content differed with each product, showing the greatest reduction in Vienna sausage and the least reduction in bacon when stored at $4^{\circ}C$. On the other hand, when stored at $-20^{\circ}C$, the nitrite content of bacon decreased more rapidly than the other meat products. The results of this study show that the nitrite content of meat products decreases during storage, and that the rate of decrease is quite dependent on the storage temperature. In addition, the nitrite contents of most domestic meat products are very low compared to the legal limits, thus the health risks of nitrite in meat products might not be of great concern. More research on the reduction of residual nitrite and on the development of alternatives to nitrite is necessary.

This study was performed to investigate the product characteristics of meat products sold in Korean markets and determine if these products meet the comsumer demands. The total nineteen meat produce were evaluated the physico-chemical, textural properties, and microbial counts of total bacteria and Enterobacteriaceae. pH values were ranged from 5.46 to 6.69, moisture $47.6{\sim}65.3%,\;fat\;14.2{\sim}34.7%,\;and\;9{\sim}20%$ and the pH values of ham products were higher than those of sausages. Purge loss(%) and expressible moisture(%) were ranged $2.40{\sim}7.44\;and\;6.10{\sim}21.2%$ respectively. Varied hunter color values (Lightness $59.6{\sim}75.7$, Redness $11.6{\sim}21.1$, Yellowness $2.30{\sim}l1.4$) were observed. Texture profile analysis values were observed and Frank A sausages made with chicken had highest fracturability, hardness and springiness, whereas loin ham and beershinken had highest cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness. Most meat products had the total microbial counts of less than 3 log CFU/g and Enterbacteriaceae were not detected (< 2 log CFU/g) in this study. These data suggested that the meat products sold in Korean market were various and relatively safe. In addition, well-being meat products, such as low-fat, salt and containing functional ingredient, should be developed to meet the consumer needs these days.

The effect of irradiation on the shelf-life of commercial ham products and its quality were investigated during eight weeks storage at $30^{\circ}C$ following 3-8kGy irradiation. Total bacterial count of unirradiated group was proliferated from. $5.4{\times}10^{3}$ per gram of sample to $10^{6}$ after two weeks storage but the bacterial count in irradiated group was propagated to the same level after three to five weeks storage and the growth of coliform group was shown negative. The freshness of stored ham was better in irradiated group than in unirradiated one and the changes in components related to the quality of ham were almost the same between unirradiated and irradiated group. Discoloration and irradiation odor were positive in 8kGy irradiated group according to the sensory test, but 5 kGy irradiated group was not only good in texture but also in the extension of shelf-life to more than two times as compared with that of unirradiated one.

Contamination levels of total aerobic bacteria, coliforms, Esherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, and Listeria monocytogenes of Kimbab and its main ingredients sampled from general and specialized restaurants were compared. Total aerobic bacteria and coliform counts of Kimbab samples from both restaurant types were not significantly different (p>0.05), showing approximately $4\;to\;6\;log_{10}CFU/g$. E. coli counts were significantly higher in kimbab from general restaurants ($65%:\;0.7-2.6\;log_{10}CFU/g$) than those from specialized ones ($8.33%:\;0.70log_{10}CFU/g$), whereas those of S. aureus and B. cereus were not significantly different (p>0.05). L. monocytogenes was not detected in all Kimbab samples. These results indicate hygiene of Kimbab and its main ingredients are deleterious. Contamination levels of pathogens determined in the present study may be used as primary data for microbial risk assessment.

Fertilization pattern of north temperate bats is known to be unique for their sperm storage in the female reproductive tract during hibernation (e.g. Korean greater horseshoe bats). They copulate in fall but their ejaculated spermatozoa survive until the next spring. In another words they can persist to survive during long hibernation under the cold condition $(8\sim13^{\circ}C)$ and are to be fertilized with the ovum ovulated in the next spring, so called delayed fertilization. The present study was designed to observe morphological and functional changes of spermatozoa plasma membrane of the bats, hamsters which are hibernators, and mice which are non-hibernators in the room and the cold (bat-hibernation) temperatures and to confirm influence of the temperature on spermatozoa; survival rate, acrosome reaction rate, protein distribution, $Na^+-K^+-ATPase$ activities and scanning electron microscopic histochemistry. Based on the experimental results obtained in the present study, there were no significant morphological and functional differences in the spermatozoa plasma membrane in both the room and cold (bat-hibernation) temperatures and such an absence of difference suggests that the spermatozoa plasma membrane might play a pertinent role as a protector for consistent fertilization during and after hibernation.
