The effect of far-infrared (FIR) irradiation and heat treatment on the antioxidant activity of extracts from defatted soybean meal (DSM) was evaluated. DSM were placed in pyrex petri dishes (8.0 cm diameter) and irradiated at $150^{\circ}C$ for 5, 10, 15, 20, 40 or 60 min with a FIR heater or simple heater. After FIR irradiation or simple heat treatment at same conditions, methanol extracts of DSM were prepared and total phenol contents (TPC), radical scavenging activity (RSA) and reducing power of the extracts were determined. The antioxidant activities of the extracts increased as the time of heating or FIR-irradiation increased. When DSM were FIR-irradiated at $150^{\circ}C$ for 15 min, the values of TPC, RSA, and reducing power of the extracts increased from 31.62 mg/ml to 57.51 mg/ml, 11.6% to 53.1%, and 0.068 to 0.147, respectively, compared to the untreated controls. Simple heat treatment of DSM under the same conditions ($150^{\circ}C$ for 15 min) also increased the TPC, RSA, and reducing power of the extracts from to 58.04 mg/ml, 65.2% and 0.160, respectively. The results indicated that appropriate FIR-irradiation or heat treatment on DSM increased the antioxidant activities of methanolic extracts.

To obtain enzyme hydrolyzed vegetable protein (EHVP) with a salty and umami taste, defatted soybean meal was treated with proteases such as Flavourzyme$^{(R)}$ (F), Neutrase$^{(R)}$ (N), Alcalase$^{(R)}$ (A), and Protamex$^{(R)}$ (P) in various reaction orders. The highest soluble solid content of EHVP was 5.60% in enzyme reaction order NAFP although there was no significant difference. Amino type nitrogen was highest in ANFP (102.76 mg%) and APNF (102.85 mg%). In the sensory descriptive analysis, salty taste was highest in PNFA (11.81), followed by NPAF (10.14), FPNA (10.00), APNF (9.80), NAFP (9.76), AFNP (9.57), APFN (9.52), and NPFA (9.50) with no significant difference among treatment. Umami taste was not significantly different among the various enzyme treatments. Bitter aftertaste was highest in AFPN (5.67) and lowest in FAPN (2.38), PNAF (2.62), and NAPF (2.48). In the principle component analysis, EHVPs of PNFA, NAFP, APFN, NPAF, FPNA, NPFA, and APNF showed a strong salty and umami taste. Therefore, the PNFA, NAFP, APFN, NPAF, FPNA, NPFA, and APNF are desirable methods for making EHVP with a salty and umami taste.

A set of prediction equations to estimate the nitrogen-corrected apparent metabolizable energy (AMEn) of individual ingredients and diets used in the poultry feed industry was evaluated. The AMEn values of three energy ingredients (maize, sorghum and defatted maize germ meal), four protein ingredients (soybean meal, maize gluten meal 60% crude protein, integral micronized soy and roasted whole soybean) and four diets (three containing four feedstuffs, complex diets, and one containing only corn-soybean meal, basal diet) were determined using a metabolism assay with male broilers from 1 to 7, 8 to 21, 22 to 35, and 36 to 42 days old. These values were compared to the AMEn values presented in the tables of energy composition or estimated by equation predictions based on chemical composition data of feedstuffs. In general, the equation predictions more precisely estimated the AMEn of feedstuffs when compared to the tables of energy composition. The equation AMEn (dry matter [DM] basis) = 4,164.187+51.006 ether extract (% in DM basis)-197.663 ash-35.689 crude fiber (% in DM basis)-20.593 neutral detergent fiber (% in DM basis) ($R^2=0.75$) was the most applicable for the prediction of the energy values of feedstuffs and diets used in the poultry feed industry.

In order to extend the shelf-life of packaged or coated foods, an antibacterial edible film was developed from soybean meal that had been fermented with Bacillus subtilis under the optimum condition of pH 7.0-7.5 and $33^{\circ}C$ for 33 h. The water vapor permeability of the fermented film ($86.0 mg/cm^2{\cdot}h$) was higher than those of normal soybean films ($66.9 mg/cm^2{\cdot}h$). Protein solubility of the fermented film was also higher than ordinary soy protein film at the pH range of 3 -10. The fermented soybean film had higher tensile strength and lower $\%$ elongation (elongation rate) than the ordinary soybean film, mainly because partial hydrolysis of proteins in the soybean film occurred during fermentation. Antimicrobial properties of the fermented film on foodstuffs were measured by placing the films on surime, jerked beef, and mashed sausage media; containing $10^2-10^3$ CFU/plate of foodborne pathogenic bacteria, and showed significantly higher inhibitory effects on the growths of all the indicating bacteria. The film could be used as a packaging material in the food industry. However, before direct application of the fermented film to the commercial food industry, its poor mechanical and antibacterial properties need to be improved.

A microorganism capable of producing high level of extracelluar cyclomaltodextrin glucanotransferase(EC 2.4.1.19; CGTase) was isolated ’rom soil. The isolated strain No. 239 was identified as Bacillusstearothermophilus. The maximal CGTase production (about 7.0 unitslml) was observed in medium containing2% soluble starch, 0.5% defatted soybean meal, 0.1% NaH_2PO_4.2H_2O$ and 0.015% $ CaC_l2 $ with initial pH 7.0. The strain was cultured at $55^{\circ}C$ for 48 hr with reciprocal shaking. At 0.83% substrated concentration potato starch was the optimum substrate with 50.1% conversion to cyciodextrin (CD)after the reaction at $65^{\circ}C$ for 24 hr (CGTase 10 unitlg starch). Using soluble starch as substrate (5% substrate concentration, CGTase 10 unitlg starch), the maximum conversion of 40% was obtained at11 hr reaction, and the ratio of $\alpha-, \beta-$ and $\gamma$-CD production at this time were 1.0:1.3:0.4, respectively., respectively.

A $\beta$-Galactosidase producing strain, Alkalophilic Bacillus sp, YS-309, has been isolated from soil sample. The strain was capable of producing large amount of intracellular $\beta$-galactosidase in the alkaline media rather than in the neutral media. The preferable medium composition has been determined to be as follows: 0.5% lactose, 0.5% yeast extract, 0.5% soybean meal, 0.1% KH$_2$PO$_4$, 0.02% MgSO$_4$7$H_2O$ 0,0.6% Na$_2$CO$_3$ (pH 9.9). The enzyme was produced by lactose or IPTG as in-ducer. But both Enzyme synthesis and cellular growth were decreased when lactose was added at the higher concentrations than 1.5% (v/v).

A laboratory study was made to develop a simple and economic model method for the systematic determination of functional properties of 'Soy Protein Isolates (SPI)' prepared from defatted soybean meal. These are required to evaluate and to predict how SPI may behave in specific systems and such proteins can be used to simulate or replace conventional proteins. Data concerning the effects of pH, salt concentration, temperature, and protein concentration on the functional properties which include solubility, heat denaturation, gel forming capacity, emulsifying capacity, and foaming capacity are presented. The results are as follows: 1) The yield of SPI from defatted soybean meal increased to 83.9 % as the soybean meal was extracted with 0.02 N NaOH. 2) The suitable viscocity of a dope solution for spinning fiber was found to be 60 Poises by using syringe needle (0.3 mm) with 15 % SPI in 0.6 % NaOH. 3) Heat caused thickening and gelation in concentration of 8 % with a temperature threshold of $70^{\circ}C$. At $8{\sim}12\;%$ protein concentration, gel was formed within $10{\sim}30\;min$ at $70{\sim}100\;^{\circ}C$. It was, however, disrupted rapidly at $125\;^{\circ}C$ of overheat treatment. The gel was firm, resilient and self-supporting at protein concentration of 14 % and less susceptible to disruption of overheating. 4) The emulsifying capacity (EC) of SPI was correlated positively to the solubility of protein at ${\mu}=0$. At pH of the isoelectric point of SPI (pH 4.6), EC increased as concentration of sodium chloride increased. Using model system$(mixing\;speed:\;12,000\;r.p.m.,\;oil\;addition\;rate:\;0.9\;ml/sec,\;and\;temperature\;:\;20{\pm}1\;^{\circ}C)$, the maximum EC of SPI was found to be 47.2 ml of oil/100 mg protein, at the condition of pH 8.7 and ${\mu}=0.6$. The milk casein had greater EC than SPI at lower ionic strength while the EC of SPI was the same as milk casein at higher ionic strength. 5) The shaking test was used in determining the foam-ability of proteins. Progressively increasing SPI concentration up to 5 % indicated that the maximum protein concentration for foaming capacity was 2 %. Sucrose reduced foam expansion slightly but enhanced foam stability. The results of comparing milk casein and egg albumin were that foaming properties of SPI were the same as egg albumin, and better than milk casein, particularly in foam stability.

Media optimization for the production of thermostable protease specifically hydrolyzing defatted soybean meal (DSM) from Bacillus licheniformis NS70 was performed by two methods, one-at-a-time method and response surface methodology (RSM). The best carbon source and nitrogen source for the protease production were lactose and DSM, respectively. The maximum protease production estimated by RSM was 606 U/L at 1.11% lactose and 0.43% DSM, the value of which was nearly consistent to the experimental value of 599 U/L. Yeast extract suppressed the protease production. The medium pH was slightly increased at the beginning stage of fermentation, and it tended to decrease after 8 hours. The optimal pH for the protease production was 7.2 in the batch fermentation.
