The purpose of this study was to examine the physicochemical and antioxidant properties of cookies with mealworm (Tenebrio molitor) and black soybean powder. The leavening rates, and loss ratios were significantly increased with adding up the amount of mealworm powder (p < 0.05). The total polyphenol, DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging ability, FRAP activity (ferric reducing antioxidant power) and ABTS radical scavenging ability (2,2'-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) were all significantly increased as mealworm powder contents increased. In addition, cookies containing both mealworm and black soybean powder were higher in total polyphenol, DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging abilities than cookies containing only mealworm powder (p < 0.05).

Beans are acknowledged to be food resources, which have more abundant proteins and fats. The constituent parts of beans (i.e. aspartic aid, glycine, arginine) are effective against diabetes, and dietary fiber contained in the beans has an important property to maintain insulin sensitivity. Based on these, using streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats, this study examined how the rat-eye soybean, which is principal products of the Imsil province, is effective to attenuate and/or prevent the development of diabetes mellitus. We divided rats into the non-diabetic and diabetic group, and diabetic group was further subdivided into six experimental groups [DC, diabetic control; DI, diabetes with insulin treatment (4∼6 IU/rat); DB, diabetes with black bean; DY, diabetes with yellow soybean; DS, diabetes with rat-eye soybean; DSS, diabetes with vinegar-fermented rat-eye soybean. All bean treatment (1.5 mg/l g body weight).]. Food efficiency ratio (FER), body weight and insulin sensitivity in diabetic rats were significantly reduced compared to those in normal control animals. These reductions were obviously attenuated by administration of a variety of beans used in this study (20∼30%), and the recovery effects were comparable to the results obtained by insulin treatment. Taken together, this study suggests that all beans used may have an essential property to improve and/or attenuate the development of diabetes mellitus in rats.

This study was reviewed the changes in main ingredients, seasonings and cooking methods of Tangpyeongchae in Korean cook books and literatures published from the 1700s to the 1960s. The first published books about Tangpyeongchae were in Kosasibijib and Kyongdojabji, written in 1783 and the late 1700s, respectively. Tangpyeongchae, a representative traditional Korean dish that was royal cuisine offered at ritual events in the Chosun Dynasty, was called Cheongpochae in the royal court. It was a dish made by mixing cheongpomuk (mung bean gel), meat, dropwort, mung bean sprout, egg strips and laver. This dish has been seasoned with vinegar, soy sauce, black pepper, garlic, green onion, red pepper, salt, sugar, sesame oil and sesame salt since the early 1900s. Dropwort, egg strips, laver, pine nut (powder), red pepper powder, and red pepper threads were used as garnishes. Tangpyeongchae was made by mixing cheongpomuk with other ingredients and seasonings until the late 1800s. Since the early 1900s Tangpyeongchae has been seasoned first with other ingredients and then mixed cheongpomuk.

To compost the food garbage with the dry bean curd and sawdust as the bulking agents, the method of high-speed fermentation by the characteristic microorganisms group was applied. The results of experiments are summarized as follows ; 1. Korean food garbage, which is high in water content, is difficult to compost only by microorganism fermentation without the addition of bulking agents such as dry bean curd cake and sawdust. 2. Weight reduction rates are ranging from 35.6% to 64.5% and varying with the composition of food garbage. The less weight reduction rate is, the longer continuous-fermentation is. And the color of compost is changing sequentially as yellow -> brown -> black. 3. Comparing with the controlled microorganism group, the weight reduction rate and $H_2CO_3$ production rate in the characteristic microorganism group fermentation reactors are higher. And the fermentation rate is satisfactory when the characteristic microorganism group is added. 4. The value of fermented composting as fertilizer diminishes, and the contents of Total Nitrogen, $P_2O_5$, $K_2O$ increase on the condition that the fermentation continues. However, the organic contents and C/N ratio diminish as the fermentation continues. 5. The high-speed fermentation technology demonstractes the possibility of recycling as well as the reduction of composting time provided that it is applied as a pretreatment process for composting.

Wilted soybean plants were collected from soybeans cultivation fields in Korea from 2014 to 2016. Fusarium spp., Colletotrichum spp., Rhizoctonia spp., Macrophomina sp., Phytophthora spp., and Calonectria ilicicola were obtained from the infected samples. Out of these, Fusarium spp. were the dominant species (79.1%). In total, 53 isolates were identified as F. solani species complex, F. oxysporum species complex, F. graminearum species complex, and F. fujikuroi species complex based on mycological characteristics. Sequence typing analysis was conducted using translation elongation factor 1 alpha (TEF) to confirm the identification of isolates. All isolates were identified as F. solani, F. oxysporum, F. commune, F. asiaticum, and F. fujikuroi based on phylogenetic analysis of TEF sequences. Pathogenicity of 44 isolates was tested on three cultivars of soybean using the root dip inoculation method. Out of 5 Fusarium species, only F. asiaticum could not cause the symptoms or be weak. Ten isolates were selected based on pathogenic characters and species identification to investigate the host range and screen soybean cultivars for resistance. Fusarium solani, F. oxysporum, and F. commune were aggressive only to soybean, and F. fujikuroi was aggressive to kidney bean, yellow cowpea, black cowpea, adzuki bean as well as soybean. All 13 Korean soybean cultivars were susceptible to F. commune and F. fujikuroi. Out of 13 cultivars, cv. Janggi, cv. Poongsannamul, and cv. Socheongja were resistant to Fusarium wilt, while cv. Hwanggeumol and Chamol were susceptible to Fusarium wilt.

Five commercially available edible sweeteners are used as diet products because they can replace sucrose. In studies on the effects on animals and the human body, stability has been proven by excreting-oriented studies with characteristics of animal cells, and accumulation in small amounts has been ignored. On the other hand, plants can absorb, degrade, and accumulate foreign substances, so the effect of degradability and accumulation potential can be studied using plants. Metabolic effects in plants of commercially available saccharin and acesulfame potassium (Ace K) were tested using germinated barley and bean sprouts. In germinated barley and bean sprouts, saccharin and ace K showed inhibitory effects on plant growth in all organs from low concentrations in leaves, stems and roots. In addition, it can be observed that the symptoms of death appear clearly over time, so it can be seen that they are accumulated in the body of the plant. As the accumulated amount increases, the toxic effect increases and the plant reaches a state where it is unable to metabolize, turning black from the tip of the leaf and reaching a state of death. In order to remove the accumulated artificial sweetener, recovery was attempted by culturing in distilled water, but it acts as a substance that is not degraded and dies without avoiding toxicity. Saccharin and ace K cannot be excreted from the cell. Its toxic effects are thought to be persistent, inhibiting growth and eventually leading to cell death.

The objective of this study was to investigate the polyphenolic compounds found in different parts of red and black adzuki beans and to determine the contribution of polyphenolic compounds to the antioxidant properties of adzuki beans. Total polyphenolic and proanthocyanidin contents were studied and their antioxidant activities were determined by ferric reducing antioxidant power, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), and 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt assay. The highest total polyphenolic content was found in seed coats (26.1~33.9 mg/g), followed by whole beans (6.9~8.0 mg/g) and dehulled beans (3.3~3.4 mg/g). The highest total proanthocyanidin content was also found in seed coat with 26.5~30.7 mg/g. Moreover, seed coats exhibited the highest antioxidant activity regardless of analytical methods. Antioxidant activity was positively and significantly correlated with total polyphenolic content with the exception of dehulled beans, in which there was no correlation with total polyphenolic content. In particular, the highest correlation was found between DPPH and total polyphenolic content (r=0.945, P<0.01) in whole beans.

Two novel casual agents of soybean sprout rot occurred at soybean sprouts cultivated under structure in Suwon area in 1997 were isolated and their pathogenicity was tested in vivo. An isolate formed crowed, black acervuli which were oval to elongated with numerous black, needlelike, intermixed long and short setae, 65~110$\times$3.5~6.6 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Conidia were curved, lunate, unicellular and hyliane and measured 21.5~22.5$\times$3.5~4.0 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The other isolate produced conidia with straight and cylindrical, and measured 14.0~17.5$\times$3.5~4.5 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Apressorium size was measured 6.3~8.5$\times$4.5~5.0 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The agents were identified as Colletotrichum truncatum and C. gloeosporioides based on their morphological characteristics. There was a large difference in pathogenicity between two isolates. C. gloeosporioides caused dark brownish discoloration of whole plants. It showed high pathogenicity with severe disease development. Meanwhile C. gloeosporiodes caused light brown spots on cotyledon and its pathogenicity was not strong. The soybean sprout rot occurred by the two Colletotrichum species was firstly reported in soy-bean sprout in Korea, and we suggest it as “Colletotrichum rot of soybean sprout”.

The black cutworm, Agrotis ipsilon (Hufnagel), is an important crop pest worldwide that feeds more than 80 plant species including cabbage, potato, maize, wheat and bean, and this moth is a typical pest attacking underground parts of crops. It has been known in farm booklets that the larvae of A. ipsilon overwinter in the soil in Korea, but no definitive data exist yet. This study was conducted to evaluate that the specific appearance time of A. ipsilon observed actually in the field could be explained when we assumed that this pest overwinters in a form of larvae or pupae. Degree day-based phenology models were applied for tracking forward or backward to find the predicted developmental stage which developed at a specific stage found in the field. As a result of the analysis, it was confirmed that an initial population could be established in a group that does not overwinter as larvae or pupae in Korea. In other words, the appearance of adults in early March to April could not be explained by the presence of domestic overwintering populations. Populations that overwinter as larvae or pupae in Korea were able to emerge as adults in June to July at the earliest. Therefore, the group of adults appearing in early spring is highly likely to be a population that migrated from outside Korea. Taken together, it was estimated that the colony of A. ipsilon in Korea would be formed by a mixture of a migrant population through long-distance migration and a overwintering population.
