Soybean paste (Doenjang) was prepared by adding Lotus root powder (LRP) at $5\~15\%$ (w/w) to improve quality of the Doenjang and to give some functional properties. Moisture content was ranged about $50.05\~54.04\%$ and amino nitrogen content was $635\~648\;mg\%$ following the LRP contents. Crude protein amounts were $11.55\~12.56\%$ that was no difference between test samples. Carbohydrates contents increased $1.5\~2$ times in the test samples than the control depending on the LRP contents. However, contents of crude lipid $(6.99\~8.55\%)$ and ash $(13.99\~15.17\%)$ were decreased as increased the amounts of LRP. The pH of the product was decreased until 45 days during aging period and then slightly increased without significantly differences among test samples. The values of acidity were $1.85\~2.18\%$ at the early stage of aging but slightly increased with further aging. The total phenolic content in the Doenjang adding $15\%$ LRP was $461.8\;mg\%$ which is higher than $368.6\;mg\%$ in the control. Doenjang prepared with LRP showed an anti-browning effect of the product itself.

This study was conducted to investigate the changes of major components and bioactivities of tea produce. The tea produce were made by various methods, with different degree of fermentation during manufacturing process. Except green tea, degrees of fermentation in Wizo Tea, Ilsoae Tea, and Hwang Tea were $5{\sim}10%,\;50{\sim}60%$ and $70{\sim}80%$ respectively. The result are as follows : The general component(moisture, crude ash, crude lipid, and crude protein) and the content of total polyphenol in tea products were not shown significant difference during the fermentation process. The content of caffeine in tea extracts decreased sharply as degree of fermentation of tea. In comparison of hunter values in tea extract, lightness was decreased as fermentation redness (a) was all (-), and yellowness(b) was increased sharpy with degree of fermentation. Radical scavenging activity using DPPH of tow kinds of tea was potent and decreased generally with degree of feimentation. Inhibitory effects of tea extracts against angiotensin I converting enzyme were also potent.

Deonjang prepared with sea salts(Shinan-docho product, Thai-land product, refined product and Austrailia salt product) were analyzed for pH, acidity, reducing sugar, amino type nitrogen and free amino acids. Amino type nitrogen as major element was highest in fermenting for 30 days as 315.3 mg% in deonjang prepared with Shinan-docho salts, but deonjang prepared with imported salts were $265.1{\sim}263.3\;mg%$. Sum of free amion acids for 30 days were 4,527 mg% in deonjang prepared with Shinan-docho salts, but lower in deonjang prepared with imported salts. Each amino acid content of deonjang prepared with Shinan-docho salts, which were glutamic acid and aspartic acid had much higher level than others.

Fermentation characteristics for the production of honey wine with Saccharomyces sake, Saccharomyces bayanus and nuruk were investigated. Among the yeast strains and the mixture with nuruk tested, nuruk-Sacch. sake mixture and nuruk-Sacch. bayanus mixture showed higher alcohol production and better fermentability than the single strains. Total acid and pH did not change considerably during the whole period of fermentation. As the fermentation progressed, reducing sugar decreased rapidly until the 6 days of fermentation, while alcohol content increased rapidly during the same period. In fermentation of 6 days, honey wine consisted of about $7.5{\sim}8.1^{\circ}Brix$ of soluble solid, $22.7{\sim}31.8%$ of reducing sugar. Alcohol content were reached up to 12.5 and 13.1% for honey wine manufactured with nuruk-Sacch. sake mixture and nuruk-Sacch. bayanus mixture, respectively, relative to $5.2{\sim}7.2%$ of the single strains. Generally, honey wines prepared with the mixture of nuruk-yeast strains were fermented more efficiently than those with the single yeast.

The physiochemical characteristics and sensory properties of Jinyang-ju was investigated on pH, total acidity, alcohol content, conductivity, dissolved solid, turbidity, reducing sugar content and sensory evaluation. Glutinous rice starter showed the enzyme activity that the ${\alpha}-amylase$ was 121.0 unit, ${\beta}-amylase$ was 40.0 unit and acidic. neutrality protease were 34.2, 23.7 unit, while the nonglutinous rice starter showed ${\alpha}-amylase$ was 156.0 unit, ${\beta}-amylase$ was 45.2 unit, acidic neutrality protease were 9.06, and 0.1 unit, respectively. The pH of the glutinous rice Jinyang-ju and nonglutinous rice Jinyang-ju showed the value of 5.33 and 4.04, total acidity of 2.30% and 2.05%, alcohol(%) of $2.58{\sim}13.5%\;and\;2.51{\sim}15.5%$, total organic acid content(mg%) of 4.35 and 7.63, free sugar of 4.98 mg% and 2.90 mg%, respectively. The sensory evaluation showed that the glutinous rice Jinyang-ju was more acceptable value than nonglutinous rice Jinyang-ju.

The objective of this investigation was to evaluate the possibility of substituting Amaranthus pigments for nitrates in the of manufacture pork sausage. Five treatments of pork sausages (5% fat) with two levels of sodium nitrite (0 and 0.015%), or three levels (0.1%, 0.2% and 0.3%) of pigments extracted from red Amaranthus were produced. The addition of Amaranthus pigments resulted in the significant increase of $a^*$ values, sensory color, flavor and overall acceptance scores, but the significant reduction of $b^*$ values, TBA values and VBN values (p<0.05). Based mainly on the results of overall acceptance during 29 d storage, it could be concluded that Amaranthus pigments showed a potential as nitrite alternative for pork sausage manufacture.

Lactic acid bacteria display a relatively simple metabolism wherein the sugar is converted mainly to lactic acid. The extensive knowledge of metabolic pathways and the increasing information of the genes involved allows for the rerouting of natural metabolic pathways by genetic and physiological engineering. In this contribution, the lactic acid bacteria as an efficient cell factory for different (food) ingredients will be presented. The emphasis will be on some successful examples of metabolic engineering and on the physiology of these bacteria, which makes them so suitable as a cell factory.

A 16 kilobase (kb) HindIII fragment of alkalophilic Bacillus sp. YC-335 containing a gene for xylanase synthesis was inserted at the HindIII site of pBR322 and cloned in Escherichia coli HB101. After subcloning of recombinant plasmid pYS52, the 1.5 kb fragment was found to code for xylanase activity, and the hybrid plasmid was named pYS55. The DNA insert of the plasmid was subjected to restriction enzyme mapping, which showed that pYS55 had single site for PuvII and SstI in the 1.5 kb insert fragment. Southern hybridization analysis revealed that the cloned gene was hybridized with chromosomal DNA from alkalophilic Bacillus sp. YC-335. About 64% of the enzyme activity was observed in the extracellular and periplasmic space of E. coli HB10l carrying pYS55.

Physical properties of soybean curd powder prepared with hot air, vacuum and freeze drying methods were investigated. Adsorption characteristics were studied under various water activities (such as 0.11, 0.33, 0.44, 0.55, 0.66, 0.75, 0.85, and 0.93) at 5℃, and prediction models were developed. Equilibrium moisture and monolayer moisture contents were the highest when freeze dried. due to the porous structure. In this result, Oswin model was the best fit for the isotherm of soybean curd. Sorption enthalpy indicated that high moisture content of powder showed lower sorption than that of low moisture content.

Studies of the effectiveness of anthraquinone (AQ) in kraft-AQ pulping in terms of its mechanism of mass transfer have been conducted. Experiments performed have demonstrated an 'apparent solubility' of AQ in caustic solutions of wood lignin. The adsorption behavior of AQ species was also analyzed. Anthraquinone-2-sulfonic acid (AQ-S), a water-soluble derivative of AQ, showed selective adsorption on wood. A mechanism for the transport of AQ into wood chips during kraft pulping are proposed, and some explanations for previously unexplained observations are addressed.
