The purpose of this study was to determine the efficacy of Aster koraiensis Nakai as a natural health food source. To accomplish this, the general and antioxidative contents of A. koraiensis were measured. Total contents of carbohydrates, crude protein, crude lipid, and ash were 72.15%, 13.49%, 5.09%, and 9.27%, respectively. Caloric content of A. koraiensis was 349.70 kcal, while total dietary fiber was 49.79%. Total proteins consisted of 18 different kinds of amino acids. Contents of essential and non-essential amino acids were 4.6 and 5.5 g/100 g, respectively. Regarding mineral contents, P was the most abundant mineral, followed by K, Ca, and Na. Therefore, A. koraiensis is an alkali material. Total phenol contents of the hot water and 80% ethanolic extracts of A. koraiensis were $87.7{\pm}5.01$ and $112.4{\pm}3.41$ mg GAE/g, respectively. Total flavonoid contents of the hot water and 80% ethanolic extracts were $86.6{\pm}3.71$ and $95.1{\pm}8.00$ mg RE/g, respectively. The DPPH radical-scavenging activity and reducing power of the 80% ethanolic extract of A. koraiensis were higher than those of the water extract. Therefore, the general nutrients and antioxidant bioactive materials in A. koraiensis are potential materials for health foods.

The effects of soybean powder and $chungkukjang$ powder on the quality characteristics of bread were investigated. The nutritional elements of the soybean powder, $chungkukjang$ powder and wheat flour differed remarkably. The average crude protein, ash, crude lipid, and fiber of soybean powder and $chungkukjang$ powder were approximately 3, 15, 8 and 5 times higher than those of the wheat flour, respectively. The properties of the dough to which soybean powder and $chungkukjang$ powder were added, i.e., its water absorption (%), development time (min) and stability (min) were measured with a farinograph. The water absorption, and development time of the farinogram increased, but its stability decreased when soybean powder and $chungkukjang$ powder were added to white wheat flour. As long as the mixture rate of soybean powder and $chungkukjang$ powder increased, the loaf volume of the bread declined, but the weight significantly increased. The L value decreased, but the a and b values increased in bread crumb that was made from soybean powder and $chungkukjang$ powder. The white wheat flour to which 10% soybean powder and 5% $chungkukjang$ powder were added had the highest scores in flavor, color, texture, taste, and overall acceptability in the sensory evaluation.

This study examined the nutritional components and physicochemical properties of small colored potatoes and small regular potatoes as a natural health food source. To accomplish this, the general and antioxidative contents of small colored potatoes and small regular potatoes were measured. Total contents of carbohydrates, crude protein, crude lipid, and ash were 88.1%, 4.9%, 0.9%, and 6.4%, respectively. Small colored potatoes contained 76.5 kcal, while their total dietary fiber was 4.0%. Total proteins consisted of 17 different kinds of amino acids. Regarding their mineral contents, K was the most abundant mineral, followed by P, Mg, and Ca. Total phenol contents of the 70% ethanolic extracts of small colored potatoes were $48.2{\pm}1.2$ mg GAE/g. Total flavonoid contents of the 70% ethanolic extracts were $13.1{\pm}0.3$ mg RE/g. Overall, small colored potatoes had higher amounts of nutrients and physicochemical properties than small regular potatoes. The general nutrients and other antioxidant bioactive materials in small colored potatoes were also potential materials for good health food. It is expected that follow up studies of small colored potatoes through developing processed food and evaluation of their functional properties would provide useful information as a source of functional foods.

When the soybean milk residue flour were added to the respective wheat flour at level of 5%, 10% and 15% the possibility of bread making were studied. Vital gluten was added to the soybean milk residue portion of a 10% composite flour at levels of 3%, 6% and 9% to improve bread quality. And test was baking properties of soybean milk residue composite flour and sensory evaluation of composite breads. Major components of soybean milk residue flour were crude protein, 22.0%; crude lipid, 13.2%; carbohydrate, 54.3%; and dietary fiber, 27.2%. When 5%, 10% and 15% soybean milk residue flour was blended with wheat flour, water absorption, development time and bread weight were increased, and volume of dough and loaf was decreased. But improved bread-making properties by adding gluten. Color of crumb got darker as the percentage of soybean milk residue flour increased, got brighter when gluten was added. Texture of bread increased in chewiness and hardness as the percentage soybean milk residue flour increased but not different in cohesiveness. The use of vital gluten showed influence to springiness, chewiness and hardness. The sensory evaluation showed that 5% soybean milk residue-wheat bread was similar to bread made from wheat flour in overall acceptability. And the bread made by miting gluten were better than 10% soybean milk residue-wheat bread in overall acceptability.

A total of 225 day-old broiler chicks (43.08 g initial body weight) were allotted to three dietary treatments for a 6-week feeding trial. The treatments were 1) Control (defatted rice bran; DFRB), 2) fresh rice bran (FRB) and 3) rancid rice bran (RRB). Rice brans were intentionally spoiled by two degrees of rancidity by the values of free fatty acids (FFA): 7.6% (FRB) and 16.3% (RRB). Diets were prepared on an isonutrient basis, and defatted or rancid rice brans were included 5 and 10% for starter (0-3 week) and finisher (3-6 week), respectively. At the end of the feeding trial, six chicks per treatment were sacrificed, and thigh meats were ground and stored at $1^{\circ}C$ for thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and peroxide value (POV) analyses. For a digestibility, 48 growing chicks (4 weeks old) were employed in cages (3 replicates/treatment, 2 birds/cage) according to the experimental design: FRB, RRB, pelleted and extruded rice bran. Some of the FRB were pelleted ($70^{\circ}C$) or extruded ($110^{\circ}C$). There was no significant difference in growth performance during the starter period, but chicks fed a diet containing DFRB grew faster (p<0.05) with increased feed intake (p<0.05) than those fed diets containing rice brans, FRB or RRB, during the finisher period. Feed conversion ratio in the RRB was inferior (p<0.05) to the DFRB. Between rice bran groups, weight gain was higher (pco.os) in FRB than in RRB during finisher period. There was a similar trend in growth performance of chicks for the overall period (0-6 week) as the finisher period. Dry matter and energy digestibilities were higher (p<0.05) in extruded than in RRB group. Protein digestibility was improved (p<0.05) when rice bran was extruded, but not pelleted. The chicken meats from RRB showed higher (p<0.05) TBARS than those from FRB during storage for 4 weeks at $1^{\circ}C$. In conclusion, it would appear that feeding rancid rice bran gave negative effects on growth performance and lipid stability of meat in broiler chicks.

The present study was undertaken to investigate the nutritive value of various defatted oil-seed flours in the diet by studying the effect of alternative diets on growing rats, to attention growth, food intake, weight of organs and the levels of total cholesterol, phospholipid and triglyceride in serum and liver tissue. Sixty male Albino rats (Splague Dowley) weighing 47-55 g were divided into five experimental groups and one control group of ten each, and were fed for 24 weeks with the respective diets. Each of five different diets was supplemented with defatted flours as dietary protein sources. Four of other diets were composed of 7.5 sesame seed, rapeseed, sunflower seed and cottonseed flour respectively, with the same amount of defatted soybean flour, while the fifth diet tested was prepared with 15% soybean flour. The results of this study were as follows. 1) It was noteworthy that the five defatted oilseed flour diets demonstrated much improvement of nutritive value. Sesame seed flour and sunflower seed flour, especially appeared to be worthwhile as human foods. 2) From the results of biochemical tests of the serum and liver lipid content of Albino rats, after feeding with the respective diets, it can be concluded that, from a nutritional point of view, the toxic effects of oilseed flours like rapeseed and cottonseed flour, which contain toxic substances, are reduced when they are mixed with soybean flour.

Arthrospira platensis (A. platensis) has been used in various fields including dietary supplements as it contains a high protein content and large amounts of unsaturated fatty acids. In addition, it has some pigments such as phycocyanin, myxoxanthophyll and zeaxanthin and thus has been used as a food additive and antioxidant substance. Nano-bubble hydrogen is to dissolve more than the saturation solubility in water by injecting the hydrogen gas in the nano-bubble hydrogen water. The nano-bubbles are known to possess higher antioxidant properties in addition to anticancer effects. In this paper, Arthrospira platensis was cultured in both a normal medium with distilled water and nano-bubble hydrogen water medium and their properties were compared. The cell growth and the content of chlorophyll and carotenoid in the nano-bubble hydrogen water was 15% higher than that of the control. The level of phycocyanin in nano-bubble hydrogen water was also 7% higher than that of the control. However, there were little differences in the lipid content between the nano-bubble and control. To determine the content of the antioxidants, the level of flavonoid and polyphenol were measured. The level of flavonoid in nano-bubble hydrogen water was found to be more than 70% increased when comparing to that of the control, while the level of polyphenol was similar to each other.

This study was conducted to investigate effect of feeding fermented hulless barley (FHB) on growth performance and blood metabolites in growing pigs. Forty-five pigs (LYD; initial body weight, $30.33{\pm}0.05kg$) were randomly allotted into three dietary treatments that consisted of 0, 0.5 and 1.0% of the FHB in the basal diets. The pigs fed 0.5% FHB showed higher average daily gain than the 0 and 1% FHB treatments, although there was not significant among the treatments. Similarly, average daily feed intake and feed conversion ratio were not different among the treatments. Blood white blood cells, neutrophil, lymphocyte, monocyte, eosinophil and basophil were ranged to reference values, but not difference among the treatments. Serum glucose was increased in the control compared with 0.5 and 1.0% FHB. However, parameters related to protein, lipid and mineral also were not different among the treatments. These results indicate the FHB has no significant effect of growth performance and metabolizable responses in growing-finishing pigs.

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of pelleted food waste on performance and meat quality of broiler ducks. One hundred-forty four broiler ducks were divided into 4 groups with 3 replicates per treatment for 5 weeks. Dietary levels of food waste 0%, 25%, 50% and 75% were included in experimental diets Daily weight gain was significantly increased by addition of food waste 25% and .50%, whereas decreased(P<0.05) by addition of 75% food waste. Feed intake were not affected by the pelleted food waste supplementations. Feed efficiency was improved(P<0.05) by the addition 25% food waste, however, there was depressed(P<0.05) by the addition of 75% food waste. Carcass weight was significantly decreased(P<0.05) by the addition 75% food waste. Moisture composition of breast meat were not significantly different by 25% and 50% food waste, however, there was significantly increased by 75% food waste. As the food waste level was increased, lipid and protein composition in beast meat was significantly decreased As the food waste level was increased. pH of beast meat was increased, whereas lightness and redness of meat color were decreased. Cholesterol content was significantly decreased(P<0.05) by addition of food waste. Odor and appearance of sensory evaluation was depressed by addition of food waste, whereas taste of sensory evaluation was improved by addition of food waste. There was no pathological findings from liver, spleen and kidney in slaughtered ducks. The results of this study suggests that pelleted food waste 25% and 50% improved broiler ducks performance and meat quality in broiler ducks.
