This study was performed to evaluate the quality characteristics of curd yogurt with different contents [0.5~2.0% (w/w)] of Korean rice wine lees powder (KRWLP). Yogurt was fermented with commercially available mixed lactic acid bacteria (Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium longum, Streptococcus thermophiles) at $40^{\circ}C$ for 15 h. Acid production (pH and titratable acidity) of yogurts increased with increasing KRWLP content. After 12 hours fermentation, titratable acidity of KRWLP yogurt was 1.19~1.29 % and was higher than that (1.07 %) of yogurt made without KRWLP. And also, the number of viable lactic acid bacterial cell increased and the culture time to obtain maximum number of lactic acid bacteria cell decreased with the addition of KRWLP. The curd stability in yogurt was significantly enhanced by repression of whey separation in KRWLP yogurt. In sensory evaluation, there was a similar preference for KRWLP yogurts and the control. These results suggest that KRWLP can be used as foodstuff to improve the quality characteristics of yogurt.

Casein phosphopeptide (CPP) enhances calcium absorption in humans. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are capable of synthesis of cell-surface proteinase, which can hydrolyze milk protein and release several types of peptides in the medium. This study was conducted to characterize proteinase of LAB and to evaluate the CPP production from bovine milk. The content of CPP of milk produced by cell-free extract of LAB was determined based on the quantity of decomposed peptide from casein using the O-phthaldialdehyde (OPA) method. The proteolytic activity of LAB was assayed using fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-labeled casein. Casein appeared to be a better substrate than whey proteins for extracellular proteinases of LAB. During fermentation, milk proteins were hydrolyzed by extracellular proteinase of LAB, resulting in an increase in the amount of free $NH_3$ groups. Overall, the results presented here indicate that CPP produced by LAB may be a promising material for novel applications in the dairy industry.

The goal of this study was to develop hydrolyzed whey protein powder (23%-GNANA) manufactured with high content of sialic acid, a marker compound that is usually present at 7% concentration in GMP obtained from the milk protein. It is a safe food, used worldwide in infant and baby foods, etc. The test substance was prepared using (7% sialic acid containing) GMP as a raw material. Alcalase, an enzyme approved as a food additive, was used after separating sialic acid, with 100% efficiency, and 23%-GNANA (composed of 23% sialic acid and protein; product name: HELICOBACTROL-23), provided by MEDINUTROL Inc. (Korea), manufactured to have high (23%) content through ethanol soaking and enrichment. Bacterial reverse mutation (Ames) test was conducted in accordance with the GLP Guideline using the test substance specified above. To detect its mutagenicity potential in microorganisms, histidine auxotrophic strains of Salmonella typhimurium, TA98, TA100, TA1535, and TA1537, and tryptophan auxotrophic Escherichia coli strain, WP2uvrA, were used. The bacterial reverse mutation (Ames) test was performed using five concentrations of the test substances (0, 61.7, 185, 556, 1,670, $5,000{\mu}g/plate$). The evaluation did not reveal repetitive increase of colony generating values and positive criteria for reverse mutagenicity for any tested concentration in the five strains regardless of the presence of metabolic activation system, and no dose-dependency. In conclusion, the safety of 23%-GNANA test substance was verified by the bacterial reverse mutation test conducted before registration of 23%-GNANA as a food additive.

This study was designed to investigate the feasibility of utilizing concentrates of sunmul(soybean curd whey), the waste by-product of soybean curd processing, as functional food ingredients. Sunmul was concentrated by nanofiltration fo11owing ultrafiltration and then freeze-dried. The oil adsorption capacity of the nanofiltraion(NF) powder(97.33g/100g) was similar to that of sunmul powder(94.17g/100g), but was lower than that of ISP(isolated soy protein). However, the water holding capacity of NF powder could not be determined because the NF powder completely dissolved in water. The protein solubilities of sunmul powder and ISP in distilled H$_{2}$O, 0.1M and 0.5M NaCl were lowest at pH 4.0 and increased at more acidic or alkaline conditions. However, the protein solubility of NF powder was at its minimum at pH 6.0 and increased at more acidic or alkaline conditions. Emulsifying activity indexes of NF powder in 4% and 6% solution were minimal at pH 4.0 and 6.0, respectively, which were 3 to 8 times lower than that of sunmul powder. The emulsion stability of 4% sunmul solution was lowest at pH 4.0, but that of NF powder was highest at pH 5.0 and decreased at more acidic or alkaline conditions at all concentrations of solution. The total free amino acid contents of protein in sunmul, and NF power were 99.07 and 2,110.10mg%, respectively, and NF powder exhibited especially high threonine content. Rapid viscosity analysis of dough with 1 to 5% added NF powder demonstrated that all of the peak and final viscosities decreased with increasing NF powder concentration compared to the control.

A new bacterial strain, was isolated from activated sludge, identified and named P. aeruginosa EMS1. The new strain produced surface-active rhamnolipids by batch cultivation in mineral salts medium with waste flying oils. The mutant strain KH7, designated P. aeruginosa EMS1, derived by random mutagenesis with N-methyl-N-nitro-N-nitrosogoanidine treatment producing high levels of the biosurfactants was selected by an ion-pair plate assay. The mutant strain KH7 showed 4-5 times more hydrocarbon emulsification as compared to the parent when grown on waste frying oils and various hydrocarbons. Furthermore, P. aeruginosa EMS1 and mutant strain KH7 was also able to use whey as a co-substrate for growth and biosurfactant production. As results of this study, mutant strain KH7 is a very efficient biosurfactant producer, and its culture conditions are relatively inexpensive and economical. Rhamnolipid is synthesized by the rhlAB-encoded rhamnosyltransferase. To be convinced of these genes, we performed PCR based on P. aeruginosa PAO1 whole-genome database. rhl gene cluster nucleotide and amino acid sequences were compared for both parent and mutant. Comparison of nucleotide sequence of rhlAB, there were usually terminal's codons exchange.

We analyzed the isoflavone content of domestic soybeans during steaming, boiling, fermentation, germinating cultivation, fermentation, and soybean curd production. The isoflavone content of the beans was reduced by steaming and boiling, and overall reductions ranging from 16.0 to 65.0% of initial isoflavone values were detected. After 4 days of germinating cultivation, the total isoflavones of Eunhakong increased from 1,341 to $2,017\;{\mu}g/g$ and the total isoflavones of Guinunikong increased from 1,284 to $1,535\;{\mu}g/g$. The isoflavone content of the vinegar beans produced from Hwangkeumkong and Black No.1 increased from 1,877 to $1,956\;{\mu}g/g$, and from 885 to $1,956\;{\mu}g/g$ after 8 days of immersion in 4% acetic acid, respectively. During soybean curd production, significant amounts of isoflavones were lost in the whey (30-31 %) and soybean curd residue (15-20%). Only 37.4% of the isoflavones present in the original soybeans remained in the soybean curd with the hot extraction method, and 50.7% of them with the cold extraction method. Soybean curd prepared with whole soybean method, however, retained 80.7% of the initial isoflavones.

The aim of this study is to determine the some physicochemical (proximate composition, pH and $a_w$ values) and reconstitution (wettability, dispersibility and solubility index (SI)) properties of spray-dried bone broth powder (BBP) along with the effects of the addition of different carrier agents. Subsequently, the powdered products were stored to determine the storage stability (pH, lipid oxidation, color, browning index) for 3 mon at $-18^{\circ}C$. For this purpose, firstly marrow-containing bones (Os femur and Os humerus) have been boiled to get the bone broth. Three different emulsions were respectively prepared (1) 20% maltodextrin (MD) added BBP, (2) 20% whey powder isolate (WPI) added BBP and (3) 10% MD and 10% WPI added BBP and the emulsions were dried using a spray-dryer with $185^{\circ}C$ inlet and $95^{\circ}C$ outlet temperature. The proximate composition and reconstitution properties of BBP were found statistically different (p<0.05) depending on the use of different carrier agents. MD added BBP showed uniform and smooth morphology. The color, browning index, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and pH values of BBP significantly changed (p<0.05) during storage. In conclusion, both the results of physicochemical and storage period analyses showed that the most suitable encapsulation material in the production of the bone broth powder is MD.
