In this study, we examined the effects of carrier oil type (MCT oil: MO, corn oil: CO, palm oil: PO), pH of dispersion solution, and antioxidants on the chemical degradation of ${\beta}$-carotene in oil-in-water nanoemulsions. The pH of the emulsion had a significant influence on the stability of ${\beta}$-carotene, which showed rapid degradation in emulsions at low pH value and relatively higher stability at high pH values. The influence of the carrier oil type on ${\beta}$-carotene stability was assessed. The rate of ${\beta}$-carotene degradation increased in the following order: CO > PO > MO. The effect of antioxidants on ${\beta}$-carotene degradation was monitored during storage at $25^{\circ}C$ for 4 weeks. The rate of ${\beta}$-carotene degradation decreased upon addition of water-soluble (ascorbic acid) or oil-soluble (tocopherol) antioxidants. In general, tocopherol was more effective than ascorbic acid in reducing ${\beta}$-carotene degradation. To utilize this nanoemulsion for producing acidic beverages, adding a higher concentration of antioxidants is required.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of dietary ${\gamma}$-linolenic acid on plasma lipid metabolism and anti thrombotic activity in male Sprague Dwaley Strain rats. Rats weighing an average of $100{\sim}120g$ were fed a experimental diets containing 5% lard (saturated fatty acids), corn oil(linoleic acid), evening promise oil(EPO, 9% ${\gamma}$-linolenic acid) or borage oil(BO, 24% ${\gamma}$-linolenic acid) for 3Odays, respectively. Though there were no significant difference in the food intake among the groups, the body weight gain of the BO group was significantly lower than that of other group. The spleen weight of the lard group was significantly lower than that of other group. The bleeding time of the BO group was significantly longer than that of other group. The blood clotting time was significantly tended to long in EPO and BO groups compared with lard group. The plasma triacylglyceride and total cholesterol concentration were high in order of lard, com oil, EPO and BO, groups and there were significant differences among the groups. The plasma HDL-C concentrations were high in order of BO, EPO, com oil and lard groups and there were significant differences among the groups. The plasma LDL-C concentrations were significantly the highest in lard group, but the lowest in BO group. These data indicate that ${\gamma}$-linolenic acid has a antithrombotic activity, and decrease the plasma triacylglyceride, total cholesterol and LDL-C concentrations in rats.

We investigated the effects of vitamin E supplementation on lipid peroxidation and on the activities of antioxidative enzymes in kidney of KK mice of various age and duration of diabetes. Weaned KK mice were fed high fat a diet containing 20% corn oil(wt/wt), and were sacrificed at 4, 6, and 9 months of age. The high vitamin E diet consisted of the high fat diet supplemented with an excessive amount of dl-$\alpha$-tocopheryl acetate (2080 IU/kg diet) . In the diabetic groups, we found an increase in lipofuscin and decrease in antioxidative enzyme activities with aging. Treatment with vitamin E did not modify the level of fasting blood glucose. However, a significant decrease in lipofuscin and increase in antioxidative enzyme acitvities were observed in diabetic mice.

We investigated the effects of vitamin E supplementation on the protein glycosylation in vivo. Weaned KK-mice were fed high fat diet containing 20% corn oil(wt/wt), and sacrificed at 4, 6, and 0 months of age. High vitamin E diet was the high fat diet supplemented with an excess amount of 이-$\alpha$-tocopheryl acetate(2080IU/kg diet). We measured $HbA_{1C}$ as a glycosylation early product, and collagen-linked fluorescence (CLF) of skin as a glycosylation and product. We found that diabetic group had increased levels of $HbA_{1C}$ within 2 months after onset of diabetes and during the experiments. The skin CLF increased dramatically 5 months after onset of diabetics. Treatment with vitamin E did not modify the level of blood glucose. However, we observed a significant lowering in CLF and $HbA_{1C}$ in diabetic mice.

The long-term effects of vegetable and animal high fat diet on the lipid metabolism were investigated in male weaning rats. The rats were fed one of four semipurified diet ad libitum : control diet supplied 12% of calories as fat(control group), low fat diet supplied 3% of calories as fat (3% F group), 45% corn oil diet supplied 45% calories from corn oil (45% C group) and 45% butte. fat diet supplied 45% calories from butter fat (45 % B group). Incorporation of $acetate-1-^{14}C$ into lipid of liver, serum and adipose tissue as well as exhalation of $^{14}CO_{2}$ from $acetate-1-^{14}C$ were observed in rats fed for 4,8 and 12 weeks. The weigh of epididymal adipose tissue of rats, fed 45% corn oil and 45% butter fat . from 4 weeks to 8 weeks were higher, but not different at 12 weeks, compared with those of control group. The weight of abdominal adipose tissue appeared to be similar to those of epididymal adipose tissue. Incorporations of $acetate-1-^{14}C$ into lipid of liver were remarkably decreased in high fat diet groups, especially in 45% C group, but in 3% F group were increased more than those of control group. Incorporations of $acetate-1-^{14}C$ into epididymal adipose tissue in 3% F, 45% C and 45% B group at 8 weeks were remarkably increased but not different at 12 weeks, compared with those of control group. The incorporation of {acetate-1-}^{14}C into abdominal adipose tissue appeared to be similar to those of epididymal adipose tissue. Incorporations of $acetate-1-^{14}C$ into lipid of serum in 45% C and 45% B group were reduced reasonably at 4 and 8 weeks of diet as compared with those of control group. Exhalation of $^{14}CO_{2}$ was increased to maximum level at 10 minutes after injection of $acetate-1-^{14}C$. Expiration of $^{14}CO_{2}$ in 45% C and 45% B group were higher than those in 3% F and control group for initial 5 minutes after injection, but expirations of $^{14}CO_{2}$ did not have significant difference among groups of diet since 10 minutes.

Ten college women were treated with either corn oil(CO< as a source of C18:2, $\omega$6) or fish oil concentrates(FO, as a source of C20:5+C22:6, $\omega$3) with experimental diet for 7 days and then returned to normal home made diet. Kinetic changes of plasma and RBC lipids, tocopherol, MDA levels and hemolysis were observed at day-0, -3, -7, -8, -10, -14 and -21 of experimental periods. Plasma and RBC tocopherol contents were significantly increased at day-3 and -7 by tocopherol tocopherol supplement in dietary oil, but there was no significant difference between CO and FO diet with large dose of tocopherol supplement. After stop experimental regimen at day-7, plasma tocopherol content was sustained at high level until day-10 but drastically decreased at day-14 and remained at low level at day-21. However, RBC tocopherol level was not greatly responded to the dietary intake of tocopherol and was varied in the very narrow range. MDa levels of plasma and RBC were not responded in the same way as tocopherol content of plasma. MDa content of RBC was very low compared to that of plasma. RBC hemolysis by incubation in hypotonic solution was negatively correlated to plasma tocopherol level and was not correlated to the level of MDa in either plasma or RBC. There were no significant change in the levels of plasma cholesterol, HDL-chol, triglyceride, phospholipid, and lipoprotein pattern throught experimental periods.

Kimbugak is one of Korea's traditional snacks made of laver. This study was conducted to investigate the physical drying and frying characteristics of kimbugaks made by a pasting & garnishing machine. The drying and frying characteristics should be analyzed to develop a continuous operation system for manufacturing kimbugak because kimbugak has a high moisture content after pasting process. Materials for pasting and garnishing on laver were rice gruel and sesame. The aluminum shelf with square hole was selected as a drying shelf. The recommended size of the square hole type was $1.5mm{\times}1.5mm$ because characteristics of deformation and easy separation from the shelf were excellent at the hole size. The drying time of 2 hours was also recommended with the drying temperature of $70^{\circ}C$ based on the test results such as dried condition (good), moisture conten t (3.7%), deformation (12.1 mm), and shrinkage rate (19.8%). As the frying conditions for dried kimbugaks, recommended oil temperature and frying time were $170^{\circ}C$, 15 seconds, respectively when corn oil was used. In the case of frying for undried kimbugaks, recommended oil temperature and frying time were $210^{\circ}C$, 2 - 3 minutes, respectively for improvement of work efficiency.

In situ and in vivo digestion trials were conducted to determine the degradation of dry matter (DM), crude protein (CP) and effective protein degtadability (EPD), and digestibility of nutrients of Hazelnut kernel oil meal (HKOM), and effects of HKOM on nitrogen (N) balance. In the in situ study, nylon bag were suspended in the rumen of 3 Karayaka rams to estimate protected protein. Protein sources were analyzed for pepsin soluble protein (PSP) using a Pepsin Digestion Method. In the digestion trials, 4 Karayaka rams (36 mo.) were used in a $4{\times}4$ Latin square to evaluate the digestibility of nutrients and N retention to measure effects of diets containing HKOM, soybean meal (SBM) corn gluten meal (CGM) and urea (U). The degradability of DM and CP, and PSP content of HKOM were lower (p>0.05) than that of SBM, but higher (p<0.001) than that of CGM. EPD of HKOM was higher (p<0.01) than that of SBM or CGM. The apparent digestion coefficients of organic matter and CP for HKOM were lower than for SBM, but higher than for CGM. N retention of HKOM was higher than that of SBM and lower than that of CGM (p>0.05). In conclusion, these data may indicate that the HKOM is a high digestible feed source with a value between SBM and CGM.

To strengthen the competitiveness of agricultural sector of the Korea, the direction of market trends on agriculture of the Malaysia was reviewed. The most dominating agricultural area in value is palm oil products, and forest products, sea products poultry products and rubber products is in order. The cultivated area of highest two top plants, oil palm and rubber, was about 4.4 million hectares in 2005, but it is decreasing year by year. Comparatively, rice field, pine apple and fruits tree cultivating area is increasing in tendency by the year. Among all the agricultural products, those items such as pork meat, poultry, egg were self-sufficient, rice, fruits, vegetables and sea products were about 70 to 80% self-sufficient, and beef meat, goat meat and milk were below 20% self-sufficient. Most of the grains, such as wheat, rice, barley, corn etc. and their processed food were imported. Also, temperate fruits such as apple, pear, and water cultivated as well as sprouting vegetables are imported. Ornamental products as cutting flowers and orchids are exported to mainly to the Singapore, but high quality temperate fruits and vegetables are imported from Australia. Oil palm exportation covers the balance of the other items imported and obtaining the foreign money as well in Malaysia.

The application of starch-based films is limited by the poor water vapor barrier and mechanical properties. In this study, plasticized octenyl-succinated corn starch (OTPS) was mixed into Poly (butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) with various concentration (0/0.25/0.5/0.75 wt%) of epoxidized soybean oil (ESO) to enhance the mechanical properties and the hydrophobicity of blends. Tensile Strength and elongation at break of PBAT/OTPS film was slightly strengthened as the added ratio of ESO raised to 0.5 wt%, yet lessened again in 0.75 wt% sample. The yield strength and elastic modulus were highest in 0.25wt% of ESO added. In thermal properties, the melting temperature (T_m) and crystallization temperature (T_c) were highest at ESO 0.25 and the maximum degradation temperature (T_max) of components of the films were developed as ESO added. Also, it has been proved that the addition of hydrophobic substances reduces the hydrophilicity of the film by contact angle. This suggests the use of epoxidized oil for preparing films based on high TPS content allows obtaining enhanced interfacial adhesion. This study confirmed that ESO acts as a compatibilizer between OTPS and PBAT to improve the mechanical properties and hydrophobicity of the sample. The sample containing 0.5wt% of ESO was the most suitable for packaging application.
