Lipids of kidney bean were extracted by the mixture of chloroform-methanol-water (1:2:0.8 v/v), fractionated into neutral lipids, glycolipids and phospholipids by silicic acid column chromatography, and the composition of these lipid classes were determined by TLC and GLC. The lipid content of kidney bean was 1.9%, and the lipid was consisted of 48.3% neutral lipids. 7.5% glycolipids and 44.2% phospholipids. Triglyceride was the major component of neutral lipids (64.6%). The major glycolipid and phosphlolipid were esterified steryl glycoside (38.3%) and phosphatidyl choline (32.9%). The major fatty acids of kidney bean lipid were linolenic, linoleic, palmitic and oleic acid. Linolenic acid contents were very high to be 37.1% in total lipid and 50.5% in neutral lipid.

We have studied biochemical characterization of lectin purified from kidney bean seedling through PBS extraction, $(NH_4)_2SO_4$ precipitation, and Sephadex G-100 affinity chromatography. The lectin was agglutinated by rabbit erythrocytes. This lectin analyzed by SDS-PAGE is a tetramer composed of two subunits with molecular weights of 46 and 44 kDa. The optimal temperature and thermal stability of the lectin was 30$^{\circ}C$ and 40-80$^{\circ}C$, respectively. The maximal pH of this lectin was pH 8.2.

Trypsin inhibitor and hemagglutinating activities of some minor beans produced in Korea were determined in comparison with those of soybean and the effects of heat treatment on the activities were studied. The results are summarized as follows 1. The trypsin inhibitor activity (% [TU] inhibited/mg) of soybean, red bean, kidney bean, and mung bean were 79.9, 46.4, 43.2 and 17.7, respectively, on the dry weight basis and were 194, 222, 170 and 75, respectively, on the protein basis. 2. Heat destruction by boiling or autoclaving of trypsin inhibitor activity of red bean, mung bean, kidney bean, and soybean were $85{\sim}87,\;87{\sim}94,\;76{\sim}79\;and\;67{\sim}72\;%$, respectively. No significant difference was, however, observed in the effect between the two heating methods. 3. The hemagglutinating activity (unit/g) of kidney bean, soybean, mung bean and red bean were 48,300, 18,000, 136 and non-detectable, respectively, on the dry weight basis and were 190,600, 43,700, 581 and non-detectable, respectively, on the protein basis. Heat treatment destructed the hemagglutinating activity in all three beans.

The experiment was carried out to the find variation of the sugar contents in the tip and basal part of the cotyledon and remaining portion of embryos in Phaseolus vulgahs seeds during germination with HPLC analysis method. Water content in cotyledon of kidney bean seed was about 6.4~6.5 of fresh weight and incresed to 45.8~71.2% during germination showing that tip part of cotyledon has more water content by 1.1~3.8% compared to the lower part of it. Higher water onten was observed in the rest parts of the seed except cotyledon such as plumule, radicle and hypocotyl showing that it increased to 72.2~93.3% depending on the different tissue organs. Main important sugars in kidney seeds during germination stages are; raffinose, sucrose, glucose and fructose, and the amount are differed with the kinds of embryo in kidney bean seed organs and stages of germination. Raffinose amount in kidney bean is increasing repeatly when seeds become wet but disappear it soon after seed have germinated especially in growing embryo parts. Raffinose in basal parts of cotyledons were still presented some an amount after germination. Sucrose is synthesized highly in plumule embryo at the beginning stage of germination but disappeared it from 5 days after seeding stages. Amount of sucrose in cotyledon of kidney seeds and seedlings increased continuously after germination. The amount of glucose and fructose in the cotyledons of kidney seeds during germination varied 5~10% or 5~15% but in the germinating and growing organs, plumule, they increased continuously after germination.

To extend the shelf-life of kidney bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) after harvest, we investigated the effect of packaging material and storage temperature. In case of film package, there was no weight loss during storage, but in paper-box package, remarkable weight loss occurred as storage period extended and storage temperature risen. Firmness of kidney bean was greater in low temperature than ambient temperature storage. Content of vitamin C was decreased rapidly during storage, and in paper package, low temperature storage group had lower decrease of vitamin C than that of room temperature. Total chlorophyll content was not difference among storage temperatures in film package treatments. However, in paper-box package, decrease of chlorophyll in room temperature storage was greater than that of low temperature ($8{\sim}10^{\circ}C$). In terms of freshness of kidney bean, we suggest that shelf-life by low temperature storage ($8{\sim}10^{\circ}C$) after PP film or paper package was 8 days, but that by room temperature storage after paper package was 4 days.

The contents of flatulence factors such as raffinose and stachyose were determined by two-dimensional thin-layer chromatography using a guide-strip technique for some legume seeds and soy products consumed in Korea. Raffinose contents in bean samples were 1.34% in domestic soybean, 1.17% in imported soybean, 0.65% in kidney bean, 0.49% in red bean and 0.49% in mung bean. Stachyose contents were 4.1% in doemstic soybean, 3.6% in imported soybean, 3.0% in kidney bean, 2.9% in red bean and 1.9% in mung bean. The flatulence factors were not detected in soy sauce whereas soy paste contained 46.6mg% of raffinose and none of stachyose. The contents of raffinose and stachyose were 26.7mg% and 53.7mg% in soy curd and 26.5mg% and 41.7mg%, respectively, in soy milk.

A rotting bacterium was isolated from decayed root of ginseng (Panax ginseng Meyer), cultured purely, and its pathogenicity was confirmed by reinoculation test. The strain causing ginseng root rot was identified as Pseudomonas fluoresens biotype II. The strain was somewhat different from P.marginalis and P.talaasii, considering the number of flagella, pathotype and ability of indole production. The strain did not exhibit pathogenicity to other plants tested, such as red kidney bean(Phasolus vulgaris L.), soy bean (Glycine max Merr.), cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) and cowpea bean (Vigna sinensis Savi.).

Various kinds of legumes have included as essential foods in Korean diet. However, a little attention have been paid on variety of those beans other than soybean. Main purposes of this study is to evaluate the protein quality of raw and cooked, red mung bean. Eighty male, sprague-Dawely rats weighing 50 gram were devided into 16 groups, five rats each. Casein protein from red and mung bean were used was included to after true digestibility of the protein of legemes. After 4 weeks feeding period animals were sacrificed and following data: all determined food intake, body weight gain, F.E.R., pp.E.R. and weights of liver, kidney heart, spleen, testis, pancreas, skeletal muscles. Food intake, body weight gain, F.E.R., pp.E.R. of casein group were higher than those of experimental groups (red bean, mung bean) body weight gain was increased with protein increment in the diet in all groups. The weight of liver showed significant difference between standard group and experimental group. (red bean, mung bean) The nitro gen content of liver and muscles were increased with level of protein in the diets.

Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a rapid and accurate analytical method for determining the composition of agricultural products and feeds. An important merit of the NIRS analytical system is consistent predictions across instruments. However, proper calibration is the most important factor for a NIRS analytical system. Forty samples were obtained from Kyonggi-do Agricultural Research and Extension Services, and used to develop calibrations for crude protein content and crude oil content. Calibrations equations were developed using multiple linear regression (MLR). Accuracy and precision of NIRS predictions were adequate for quality measurement for the two constituents in kidney bean seed. In calibration sample sets (N=30), multiple correlation coefficient between NIR and lab measurements is 0.90 for seed, 0.97 for powder in seed protein concentration and 0.40 for seed and 0.92 for powder in seed oil concentration, respectively. It is concluded that NIRS method is suitable for the determination of seed composition in whole kidney bean.
