The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of ingestion of rabies and ginseng fruit extracts on alcohol hangover, liver damage protection, fatigue recovery, and physical strength improvement. A total of 64 volunteers aged over 20 were participated in this study and the randomized and repeated measures design method was used to divide a group of participants with a random assignment. All participants were divided into 4 groups (n=16) treated with hoveni dulcis thunb extract + ginseng berry extract (ARI 1000), hoveni dulcis thunb extract, ginseng berry extract, and placebo. As a result of respiratory alcohol concentration change, the group treated with ARI 1000 was significantly lower than the group treated with hoveni dulcis thunb extract, ginseng berry extract, and placebo in 1 hour of drinking, and significantly lower than the placebo group in 2 hours and 3 hours of drinking (p<0.05). After 2 and 3 hours of alcohol consumption, blood alcohol concentration of the group treated with rabies ARI 1000 was significantly lower than those of the other 3 groups (p <0.05). In conclusion, ingestion of ARI 1000 before drinking may significantly reduce the respiratory and blood alcohol concentrations, which may induce an effect on the hangover effect.

The enhancement of the growth of lactic bateria in rice-based beverage was achieved by the prefermentation of cereals with a mixed culture of Bacillus and yeast followed by extrusion cooking. The rice-soybean milk blend was inoculated with a mixed culture of Bacillus laevolactis and Saccaromyces cerevisiae, and fermented in solid state at $45^{\circ}C$. It was extruded in an autogenous single screw extruder for sterilization as well as for partial digestion, and subjected to lactic fermentation in liquid state. The combined prefermentation and extrusion cooking increased the content of water soluble solid. It stimulated the growth of lactic bacteria as well as the acid production and increased dispersion stability and sensory acceptability.

As an attempt to develop new functional beverages for breakfast, sweet potato based beverages were prepared with hydrolyzed sweet potato, potato, and carrot products (sample : water = 1 : 1), and their chemical and sensory properties were evaluated. The content of reducing sugar and soluble solid of the sweet potato, potato, and carrot increased with enzyme treatment, while their viscosity decreased without significant change of color. The hunter color test showed that the beverages with 10％ carrot content were high in redness leading to a decrease in their acceptability for sensory evaluation. The sensory score of the mixture containing 5％ carrot was good, but beverage with 0％ carrot reduced the sensory properties. The results showed that the final ratio of sweet potato to potato to carrot for the new functional beverage was 5 : 4.5 : 0.5. The pH of the beverage was adjusted to 5.0, 4.5, and 4.0 using an organic acid mixture. In the sensory test of the new functional beverage, the best sensory score(color, taste, smell, and texture) was the mixture of sweet potato : potato : carrot equaling 5 : 4.5 : 0.5 with a pH of 4.5.

The present study was performed to evaluate the anti-oxidant and anti-proliferating activity of the water extract mixture of Cordyceps militaris (CM) and Allium tuberosum (AT). The water extract mixture rate of CM and AT was optimized by means of a sensory evaluation test. The optimized mixture rate were decided at 70% of CM, 30% of AT, and 10% of apple concentrate as an additive. The values of total acidity, pH, sugar contents, and turbidity of the water extract mixture were 0.1%, 4.28, 9.10 °Brix, and 1.48 respectively. The water extract mixture had effective DPPH radical scavenging activity, reducing power effect, and ABTS radical activity. DPPH radical activities of the water extract and the water extract mixture were 43.2% and 51.7% respectively; their reducing power (OD₇₀₀) was 1.14 and 1.43 respectively; and ABTS^.+ radical activities were 47.1% and 62.2% respectively. Also, the water extract mixture showed a higher anti-proliferating effect than the AT extract on human prostate cancer cells. These results provided experimental evidence that the water extract mixture of CM and AT is a better source of anti-oxidant and anti-cancer ingredients than a single extract of CM. In conclusion, the water extract mixture of CM and AT will be beneficial in development of a functional drink.

미생물학적 물질변환에 대해서는 인류 초기에서부터 효모를 이용하여 빵, 유제품, 알코올, 음료 등의 생산에 이용하여 왔으며, 주로 농업분야 또는 식품 분야에 국한되어 왔다. 1862년 Pasteur에 의해 bacterium xylinum의 순수 배양균주를 사용하여 알코올로부터 초산을 만드는데 응용한 것이 본격적인 시발점으로 보아 무방하겠다. 그 후 acetobacter aceti에 의한 포도당으로부터 gluconic acid 생산과 acetobacter sp.에서의 sorbitol로부터 sorbose 생산 등이 이루어졌고 정통적인 유기합성 방법에 의해 쉽게 만들 수 없는 반응들에 응용되기 시작하였다. 인류 초기의 혼합배양에 의한 물질변환에의 응용과는 달리 순수배양으로 미생물, 식물세포, 혹은 정제된 효소들에 의해 반응이 이루어지게 되었고 순수한 특정 물질에 대한 새로운 순수물질로의 선별적인 수식도 가능해지게 되었다. 특히 발효와 bioconversion의 차이는 racemates의 분리, 비슷한 반응성을 갖는 여러 기들로부터 특정기능을 갖는 기만의 선별적인 수식, 입체 이성체(chiral center)의 제작, 특정 비활성화된 탄소의 기능 등이 bioconversion에서만 수행할 수 있는 독특한 영역으로서 정밀화학분야, energy 분야, 환경오염분야에서의 특히 미래의 관심 기술로 대두되고 있다.

A global trend of replacing metal or glass containers with polymer-based packaging materials has been prevalent in the food packaging industry due to their ease in processibility, excellent transparency, and good cost efficiency. Barrier polymers tend to show low permeabilities for atmospheric gases such as oxygen, carbon dioxide, and water vapor, which allow them to be utilized in the food and beverage packaging industry. With the current global trend, expansion of polymeric packaging materials to new markets such as oxygen sensitive juices, flavored water, and energy drinks requires improved $CO_2$ and $O_2$ barrier properties. The improvement of the existing polymer-based barrier platform will enable a rapid market impact. In this paper, the current barrier technologies such as (1) antiplasticization-induced barrier materials, (2) synergistic effect of antiplasticization and crystallization, (3) new barrier polymers, (4) nanocomposite materials, and (5) polymer blending are introduced with their characterization techniques for the development of advanced packaging materials.

Cotinine, one of nicotine metabolites, has been blown to reduce 4-(methylnitro samino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone(NNK)- induced $O^{6}$MeG DNA adducts significantly in A/J mice when administered together with NNK. In order to examine the effects of phyto-extract mixture on the conversion of cotinine from nicotine, cellular and clinical experiments were carried out. When the phyto-extract mixture was added to culture media, human liver cells (FLCFR5) produced cotinine from nicotine 2~3 times compared to the control. The phyto-extract mixture which was microinjected into Xenopus oocyte along with nicotine showed the almost similar production of cotinine compared with the results of hepatic cell culture. In clinical test employing 17 to 20 healthy men, concentrations of urinary cotinine derived from smoking after taking photo-extract mixture increased up to 2 times compared to the control group. These results indicatethat the phyto-extract mixture can increase the metabolic efficiency of nicotine to cotinine, leading to the reduced formation of $O^{6}$MeG DNA adducts.
