This study was to investigate the characteristics of the Yakju fermented with differently-processed lotus leaves such as blanching, steaming, roasting, and drying, and fresh one for control. The total acid content was high (0.82~1.22%) in the lotus leaf Yakju, and lactic acid was the main compound among organic acids. Volatile acid content was high (200~500 mg/L) compared to the results of organic acid composition, and the main volatile acid in lotus leaf Yakju was acetic acid. Though the polyphenol content (616.5~693.1 mg/L) was similar among the Yakju, the Hunter's color value of those were quite different and also had a big impact on the sensory evaluation of color. Therefore, it seems that the enzyme activity of polyphenol oxidase in differently-processed lotus leaves may have an influence on the color of lotus leaf Yakju. In a sensory evaluation of color and aroma, lotus leaf Yakju fermentaed with fresh leaves and roasted ones were preferred to the others, and steamed leaves and roasted ones were the best in taste and overall acceptability.

This experiment was conducted to determine the effects of a low-protein diet supplemented with DL-methionine plus L-cystine (Met + Cys) on the growth performance and fat accumulation of female broiler chicks during the growing period (3-6 wks old). A low-protein diet (17% CP; 3,200 ME kcal/kg) was supplemented with Met + Cys (1.1 : 1.0) at levels 0.75, 0.94, 1.25, 1.31 or 1.50% of diet, respectively. Another diet with 21% CP and 3,200 ME kcal/kg served as the control group. All essential amino acids were adjusted to meet the National Research Council (1984) requirement for chicks. Feed and water were given ad libitum. Body weight of the chicks fed the low-CP diets supplemented with Met + Cys were heavier than those of the control birds. Feed conversion ratio and feed intakes were not significantly different between and among the treatment groups. Similary, abdominal fat content was not significantly different among the various treatments except that of the chicks fed the low CP diet with 1.25% Met + Cys which was higher than that of the control group. Fatty acid synthetase (FAS), acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) activities and carcass protein content were not influenced by dietary treatments. Carcass fat content was lowest in chicks fed low CP diet with 0.75% Met + Cys and highest in the group that received 1.50% Met + Cys supplementation. Liver triglyceride increased as Met + Cys supplementation level increased. Various lipid fraction concentrations (cholesterol ester, free cholesterol, and phospholipid) in the serum went up as Met + Cys increased up to 1.25% after which it levelled off. Results of this experiment suggest that it is possible to reduce dietary protein level from 21% to 17% for growing broiler chicks by the supplementation of Met + Cys when other EAA were sufficient.

The present study aimed to assess the effect of dietary substitution of soybean meal (SBM) with dehulled-micronized faba bean (Vicia faba var. minor) in guinea fowl broilers on their growth traits, carcass quality, and meat fatty acids composition. In this trial, 120 day-old guinea fowl keets were randomly assigned to two treatments which were fed from hatch to 12 weeks of age. Birds were fed two wheat middlings-based diets comprising of a control treatment which contained SBM (78.3 g/kg) and a test diet containing dehulled-micronized faba bean (130 g/kg) as the main protein source. Substituting SBM with faba bean had no adverse effect on growth traits, dressing percentage, or breast and thigh muscles relative weight of the guinea fowls. Conversely, a decrease (p<0.05) of abdominal fat was found in guinea fowls fed the faba bean-diet. Breast muscle of birds fed faba bean had higher $L^*$ score (p<0.05) and water-holding capacity (p<0.05) than the SBM control diet. Meat from guinea fowls fed faba bean had less total lipids (p<0.05) and cholesterol (p<0.01), and higher concentrations of phospholipids (p<0.01). Feeding faba bean increased polyunsaturated fatty acid concentrations in breast meat and decreased the saturated fatty acid levels. Moreover, dietary faba bean improved the atherogenic and thrombogenic indexes in guinea fowl breast meat. Results indicated that substitution of SBM with faba bean meal in guinea fowl diet can improve carcass qualitative traits, enhancing also meat lipid profile without negatively affecting growth performance.

This study was attempted to investigate the physicochemical changes during soybean-leaf water kimchis fermentation by adding wheat flour in cooking water. Soybean-leaf water kimchis with five different levels of wheat flour in cooking water(0%;A, 5%;B 10%;c, 15%;D, 20%;E) were tested for rhological parameters, fine structural changes, sensory evaluations and chemical analysis. The composition of the soybean-leaf was moisture (80.9%), protein(6.8%), fat(0.6%), ash(2.1%) and alkalinity (+14.9). The amount of reducing sugars of sample A and other samples were 0.75% and 1.08∼1.4% in the initial fermentation stage, but decreased to 0.3 and 0.43∼0.50% in the later fermentation stage, respectively. The pH of sample A decreased from 5.17 to 4.72 during the initial fermentation. On sample B, C, D and E, pH's decreased rapidly during the initial fermentation, but they did not change much in the later fermentation stage. The pectin contents of all samples decreased during 2nd and 4th day of fermentation, then the change was slow. The amount of hemicellulose. cellulose and lignin in terms of the DNF and ADF were varied from 4 to 33%, but the contents of them did not greatly changed during the fermentation. The sensory evaluation showed that both B and C samples had the good score in sweety taste, roasted nutty taste, and the ease of swallowing measured as chewiness. From these results, the optimum soybean-leaf water kimchis can be prepared when 200g soybean-leaf, 1000$m\ell$ water, 15g garlic, 3% red pepper powder and 5 ∼0% wheat flour were fermented at 20$^{\circ}C$ for 2 days.

Two types of powdered chungkookjang, were prepared by a hot air-drying process, and the freeze-drying, and composition and aroma patterns were examined. The fresh chungkookjang was composed of 53.8% moisture, while the hot air-dried and freeze-dried powdered chungkookjang contained 5.2% moisture, $39.3{\sim}39.4%$ crude protein, $18.6{\sim}18.7%$ crude lipid, $4.7{\sim}5.0%$ crude ash, and $31.7{\sim}32.2%$ carbohydrate. The pH of the each powered chungkookjang was similar, ranging from 6.5 to 6.7. The freeze-dried powdered chungkookjang showed the highest lightness (67.30), yellowness (59.37) while the highest redness (43.1) was observed in the hot air-dried chungkookjang. Each chungkookjang was analysed by an electronic nose with metal oxide 12 sensors and SPME-GC/MS. The response by the electronic nose was analysed by principal component analysis (PCA). The proportion of the first principal component was 90.47%, suggesting that each aroma pattern of the prepared chungkookjang was discriminated. SPME-GC/MS was used to identify the pyrazines. The percentage of pyrazines observed in the fresh chungkookjang, freeze-dried powdered chungkookjang, and hot air-dried powdered chungkookjang was 6.6, 3.8 and 15.9%, respectively. A higher overall preference was obtained from the hot air-dried powdered chungkookjang than with the freeze-dried powdered chungkookjang.

To confirm basic nutrient contents of Korean honey as a food material, we assessed New Zealand Manuka honey by measuring proximate components, vitamin C and minerals of 16 kinds of honey harvested in South Korea. The proximate composition of each honey sample was as follows: moisture content 18.45~29.84%, crude protein 0.10~0.95% (vs Manuka honey 0.23%), crude fat 0.02~0.60% (vs Manuka honey 0.34%), crude ash 0.01~.52% (vs Manuka honey 0.24%) and carbohydrate 67.90~80.94% (vs Manuka honey 79.39%), respectively. In the case of free sugars analyze by HPLC, fructose showed a content of 26.12~49.84% which was highest in acacia honey and lowest in sorbus honey. Content of glucose was 19.38~36.12% and lowest in chestnut honey, whereas sucrose, lactose, maltose were absent. Total sugar contents were 64.16% which was less than Manuka honey (70.23%) and vitamin C was not detected in all samples. Minerals were detected 15~25 kinds, including K, Ca, Mg, Zn, Fe, Cu, Mo and so on. Ca was high in order of linden > canola > codonopsis > hedysarum honey, and K was higher than in Manuka honey in order of chestnut > hedysarum > codonopsis > jujube honey. Especially, these results suggest that Korean honey have a better nutrient content profile than Manuka honey.

Fourier transform-near infrared (FT-NIR) spectroscopy is a simple, rapid, non-destructive technique which can be used to make quantitative analysis of chemical composition in grain. An interest in total dietary fiber (TDF) of grain such as rice has been increased due to its beneficial effects for health. Since measuring methods for TDF content were highly depending on experimental technique and time consumptions, the application of FT-NIR spectroscopy to determine TDF content in milled rice. Results of enzymatic-gravimetric method were $1.17-1.92\%$ Partial least square (PLS) regression on raw NIR spectra to predict TDF content was developed Accuracy of prediction model for TDF content was certified for regression coefficient (r), standard error of estimation (SEE) and standard error of prediction (SEP). The r, SEE and SEP were 0.9705, 0.0464, and 0.0604, respectively. The results indicated that FT-NIR techniques could be very useful in the food industry and rice processing complex for determination of TDF in milled rice on real time analysis.

Two hundred and sixteen Institut de S$\acute{e}$lection Animale (ISA) brown layers (40 wks of age) were studied for 6 wks to examine the effect of microalgae powder (MAP) on egg production, egg quality, blood lipid profile, and fatty acid concentration of egg yolk. Dietary treatments were as follows: i) CON (basal diet), ii) 0.5% MAP (CON+0.5% Schizochytrium powder), and iii) 1.0% MAP (CON+1.0% Schizochytrium powder). From 44 to 46 wks, egg production was higher in 1.0% MAP treatment than in control treatment (linear, p = 0.034); however, there was no difference on the egg production from 40 to 43 wks (p>0.05). Serum triglyceride and total cholesterol were significantly reduced in the groups fed with MAP, compared to those in groups fed with control diets (Quadratic, p = 0.034 and p = 0.039, respectively). Inclusion of 0.5% MAP in the diet of layers improved egg yolk color, compared with hens fed with basal diet at 46 wks (quadratic, p = 0.044). Eggshell thickness was linearly increased in MAP-fed treatments at 46th wk (p<0.05). Concentration of yolk docosahexaenoic acid (DHA; C22:6n-3) was increased in treatment groups fed with MAP (linear, p<0.05). The n-6 fatty acids, n-6/n-3 fatty acid, and unsaturated fatty acid/saturated fatty acid were decreased in treatment groups fed with MAP (linear, p<0.05). These results suggest that MAP improved the egg production and egg quality, and may affect serum lipid metabolites in the layers. In addition, MAP increases yolk DHA levels, and deceases n-6/n-3 fatty acid ratio.

The quest to broaden the narrow range of feed ingredients available to pig producers has prompted research on the use of low cost, unconventional feedstuffs, which are typically fibrous and abundant. Maize cobs, a by-product of a major cereal grown worldwide, have potential to be used as a pig feed ingredient. Presently, maize cobs are either dumped or burnt for fuel. The major challenge in using maize cobs in pig diets is their lignocellulosic nature (45% to 55% cellulose, 25% to 35% hemicellulose, and 20% to 30% lignin) which is resistant to pigs' digestive enzymes. The high fiber in maize cobs (930 g neutral detergent fiber/kg dry matter [DM]; 573 g acid detergent fiber/kg DM) increases rate of passage and sequestration of nutrients in the fiber reducing their digestion. However, grinding, heating and fermentation can modify the structure of the fibrous components in the maize cobs and improve their utilization. Pigs can also extract up to 25% of energy maintenance requirements from fermentation products. In addition, dietary fiber improves pig intestinal health by promoting the growth of lactic acid bacteria, which suppress proliferation of pathogenic bacteria in the intestines. This paper reviews maize cob composition and the effect on digestibility of nutrients, intestinal microflora and growth performance and proposes the use of ensiling using exogenous enzymes to enhance utilization in diets of pigs.
