Aleurone layer of Black rice (Oryza sativa L.) is enriched with anthocyanin that could increase bone density. This study was conducted to investigate the osteoporosis-preventing effects of the aleurone layer extract (BRE) on bone loss of ovariectomized (OVX) rats. OVX (or sham-operated) rats were assigned to three groups (n=8 per group): sham operated group (Sham); OVX control group (OVX); OVX-BRE group, OVX rats treated with BRE at 90 mg/kg B.W. The deionized water alone or deionized water with BRE was orally administrated to Sham, OVX or OVX-BRE groups, respectively for 12 weeks. High fat diet with 45 kcal% fat and water were fed to all rats ad libitum. Body weight was significantly decreased in the OVXBRE group compared to the OVX group (p<0.05). The bone mineral density and bone length of tibia were significantly higher in the OVX-BRE group compared to the OVX group and breaking force was significantly higher for the both tibia and femur bones. Serum estradiol concentration and calcium concentration of femur were higher in the OVX-BRE group than those of OVX group. However, serum alkaline phosphatase activity and parathyroid hormone concentration were decreased in the OVXBRE group compared to the OVX group. The results suggest that aleurone layer of Black rice is a potentially useful ingredient to protect against estrogen deficiency or menopause related osteoporosis.

This study examined the regulation status on wastewater treatment in agro-food processing and a case study on effluent treatment m ethods was carried out to evaluate any change after the mitigation of regulation. First, in order to clarify the area of investigation, the definition of small-scale agro-processing facilities was reviewed through literature survey and local government ordinance. The current law were separately analyzed into four areas; effluent treatment facilities, development of agro-processing industries, land use and food processes equipment. The exclusion clauses on wastewater discharging facility in the enforcement regulation were defined in detail, which can be served in practice. Site survey, after the questionnaire survey of the person in charge of the local unit, was carried out. As the result, this survey confirmed the positive effects of the deregulation on promoting sewer system service in rural areas, introducing the new processing construction and so on. In addition, it was found that some matters to be considered to determine whether to introduce wastewater treatment plan for public food processing facilities.

본 연구에서는 조선시대 농경중심의 유교문화사회에서 양반과 서민층에서 오랫동안 즐겨 마셨던 황금주를 고문헌(산가요록)에 기록된 방법으로 복원하여 이들의 품질 특성을 조사하였다. 이양주인 황금주 술덧의 pH는 점진적으로 낮아(pH 4.23 ${\rightarrow}$ 3.96)졌으며, 환원당 함량은 발효 4일 이후 큰 폭으로 감소하였고 알코올은 발효 4일째 급격히 생성되어 발효 7일째 15.8%로 증가하였다. 황금주의 주요한 유기산은 lactic acid이고 malic, succinic, citric 및 acetic acid 순으로 나타났다. 유리아미노산을 분석한 결과, alanine, arginine, asparagine, glutamic acid 및 leucine 함량은 상대적으로 높게 나타났다. 색도, 탁도, 향미 등의 관능평가에서도 높은 점수를 받았다. 이러한 결과로 보아, 오랫동안 가양주로서 맥을 이어져 왔던 황금주가 일제 강점기를 통해 사라졌으나 최근, 전통주 복원 사업을 통해 현대인에게도 관능특성이 좋은 것으로 나타나 산업화 가능성이 높은 약주로 여겨진다.

BACKGROUND: Carotenoids which are a major source of vitamin A are contributed to have great potential role in anti-carcinogenic effects and eyesight. Carotenoids which can not synthesize in human body are required for food supply. The objectives of this study are to investigate compositions and contents of pumpkin (Cucurbita spp.) germplasms based on their pulp color. METHODS AND RESULTS: Carotenoids were extracted with 0.2% ascorbic acid in ethanol and saponified with 80% potassium hydroxide. Insoluble compounds were extracted into hexane. A total of nine carotenoids (three xanthophylls and six carotenes) were identified from pumpkin germplasms using HPLC equipped with photodiode array detector (450 nm). Especially, lutein and ${\beta}$-carotenes were major compound in germplasms. Among isomers of ${\beta}$-carotene, all-trans-${\beta}$-carotene (16-27% of total carotenoids) was predominant compositions. The mean of total carotenoid contents was showed as brown (286.1 mg/100 g dw) > dark green (217.0) > orange (153.4) > primrose (85.8) > dark yellow (80.3). On the basis of carotenoid information, PLS-DA score plots showed different patterns by cluster in pumpkin germplasms. It was considered that these differences of phenotype were relative closely to genotype. CONCLUSION: This study indicated that dark color of pumpkin pulp was presented in high-level of biological pigments. It may contribute to develop potentially beneficial functional food ingredients.

농약은 작물을 보호하기 위하여 사용되지만 환경을 오염시키는 원인이 되기도 한다. 그러므로 농약의 물리화학적 특성, 독성 자료 및 환경행적 자료를 통해 위해성 평가를 수행하여 안전하게 관리가 가능하다면 등록이 결정된다. 환경중 행적을 예측하기 위해 우리나라의 기상자료, 작물 재배력 및 토양통을 이용하여 butachlor, iprobenfos, carbofuran, tebuconazole을 대상으로 수계 중 잔류농도를 추정하였다. 예측모형으로 과수용 농약은 PA5를, 벼재배용 농약은 RICEWQ와 SCI-GROW를 이용하였다. 수계모니터링에서 butachlor와 iprobenfos의 최대값은 예측모형의 peak 농도보다 낮았고 최소값은 예측모형의 연평균농도보다 낮아 RICEWQ를 벼 재배환경 중 잔류농약의 농도 추정에 이용할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 토양흡착계수가 낮은 carbofuran은 RICEWQ와 SCI-GROW에 적용시 지표수계보다 지하수로의 이동량이 훨씬 많은 것으로 산출되어 RICEWQ는 지하수로의 수계노출농도를 예측하기에는 적절하지 못하였다. 수계 모니터링에서 과수용 농약인 tebuconazole이 검출되지 않아 예측모형으로 산출한 값과 비교하기 어려웠으나 수계를 통한 잔류농약의 추정에 이용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

The objective of this study was to investigate quality properties of 'Cheonghyang' wine using different commercial yeast strains. Soluble solid content, pH level and total acidity of 'Cheonghyang' grape were $20^{\circ}Bx$, pH 3.5 and 0.66%, respectively. Total acidity ranged from 0.91~1.06% in the middle stage of fermentation and decreased to 0.77~0.82% when alcoholic fermentation finished. Alcohol content in wines ranged from 12.5% to 12.9% showing no significant difference in yeast strains. Wine fermented with Red Fruit had high volatile acid content (189.0 mg/L) whereas wine fermented with Fermivin indicated low volatile acid content (77.7 mg/L). Wines made with Montrachet, Fermivin and Aroma White had low brightness (L-value) compared to others. Results from sensory evaluation demonstrated that commercial wine yeasts, Montrachet and Fermivin, can be applied to improve sensory properties of 'Cheonghyang' wine such as aroma, acidity and transperency. On the other hand, preferences of wine fermented with EC-1118 strain containing lots of tannins and total polyphenols were significantly reduced.

Heavy metal(loid) contamination of rice is the main issue in abandoned metal mine area with regard to food safety. A field study was conducted in mine area to see if soil amendments treatment including calcium superphosphate, sulfur, steel slag and S-containing fertilizer could reduce As and/or Cd content in rice grain and increase the growth of rice. The As content in brown rice reduced to 60% compared to the control only in $7.0Mg\;ha^{-1}$ of steel slag treatment. Cd reduction in rice was thought to be not the effect of amendments but the result from the difference in growth and development of rice plant and this could be ascribed to low soil Cd availability to rice plant. Compared with control, increased rice yield of cultivar Hwanggeumnuri was 1.3~2.2 and $1.5Mg\;ha^{-1}$ in calcium super phosphate and S-containing fertilizer treatment, respectively and the trend was also observed in cultivar Ungwang. However, steel slag treatment reduced the Ungwang yield by $0.4{\sim}0.9Mg\;ha^{-1}$. Future work will be needed to establish the agricultural measure with which secure the safety and yield of rice simultaneously.

Diseases caused by foodborne or waterborne pathogens are emerging. Many pathogens can enter into the viable but nonculturable (VBNC) state, which is a survival strategy when exposed to harsh environmental stresses. Pathogens in the VBNC state have the ability to evade conventional microbiological detection methods, posing a significant and potential health risk. Therefore, controlling VBNC bacteria in food processing and the environment is of great importance. As the typical one of the gram-negatives, Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a widespread foodborne and waterborne pathogenic bacterium and is able to enter into a VBNC state in extreme conditions (similar to the other gram-negative bacteria), including inducing factors and resuscitation stimulus. VBNC E. coli has the ability to recover both culturability and pathogenicity, which may bring potential health risk. This review describes the concrete factors (nonthermal treatment, chemical agents, and environmental factors) that induce E. coli into the VBNC state, the condition or stimulus required for resuscitation of VBNC E. coli, and the methods for detecting VBNC E. coli. Furthermore, the mechanism of genes and proteins involved in the VBNC E. coli is also discussed in this review.

This study explored a method to enhance the drying process usability of local mangoes by producing foam-mat dried powder under varying drying temperatures (50, 60, 70℃) and foam thicknesses (3, 6, 9 mm). The drying process period ranged from 60 to 390 minutes based on the set conditions, with higher temperatures and thinner foams accelerating drying. Powder chromaticity (L^*,(L^*, a^*, and b^*) demonstrated a declining trend with increasing drying temperature and foam thickness, exhibiting notable variance in chroma values. The water absorption index varied significantly, between 3.08 to 4.24, under different drying conditions, although the water solubility index remained consistent across foam-dried samples. Powder moisture content ranged from 2.53% to 3.83%, with hygroscopicity escalating with temperature and foam thickness. Vitamin C structure was compromised during the hot air drying process, especially at temperatures above 60℃. Electronic nose analysis distinguished foam-dried powder from freeze-dried powder; however, a thicker foam yielded a scent profile closer to that of freeze-dried powder. The findings provide fundamental data on mango foam drying, which is expected to improve processing and storage tech for local mangoes.
