This study was conducted to investigate the noodle added with Pachyrhizus erosus powder. Total contents of carbohydrates, crude protein, crude lipid, ash, and total dietary fiber were 87.14%, 3.14%, 0.81%, 7.82%, and 49.12%, respectively. The water-binding capacity was significantly increased by increasing amount of the Pachyrhizus erosus powder. When the volume of the noodles was measured after cooking, there was no difference between the control and Pachyrhizus erosus powder groups. The texture characteristics of hardness increased by increasing amount of the Pachyrhizus erosus powder. As a result of the sensory test, the 1.5% Pachyrhizus erosus powder noodles showed the highest scores for all items including appearance, flavor, taste, texture and overall acceptability. The bacterial counts of noodle decreased with greater Pachyrhizus erosus powder content on the third days. It is considered that research on antimicrobial activity should proceed in the future. As a result, it was finally suggested that optimum level of the Pachyrhizus erosus powder in the product was 1.5% level.

We examined the growth characteristics, fresh tuber yield, rotenone content of two yam beans (Pachyrhizus erosus and P. ahipa) introduced from Mexico. P. erosus species showed better adaptable ability than P. ahipa species in seed productivity and tuber yield. Rotenone content in the P. erosus species extracted with chloroform was 3.6 folds much more extracted than ethanol extraction. The order of rotenone content found in crude extract obtained by different solvent extraction from the highest to the lowest was mature seed (484.7 ${\mu}g$) and leaves (17.2 ${\mu}g$) of the P. erosus species, respectively.

Objectives : Yam bean (Pachyrhizus erosus) possess various nutrients, it has been widely used as traditional cosmetic material in Indonesia. The aim of this study was to investigate the anti-oxidant activity and the anti-melanogenic effect of Yambean (Pachyrhizus erosus) extract and its fractions. Methods : The anti-oxidant activity of yam bean extract assessed based on total polyphenol, flavonoid contents, DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging assay. To evaluate anti-melanogenic effects and cytotoxicity of Yambean extract and its fractions, B16F10 melanoma cell was used. Results : In results, total polyphenol content of yam bean water extract (YW) and Yambean 70% ethanol extract (YE) were $1.18{\pm}0.03mg/g$ (mg of gallic acid/g of sample), $1.16{\pm}0.01mg/g$. Total flavonoid contents of YW, YE were $3.55{\pm}0.06mg/g$ (mg of naringin/g of sample), $1.78{\pm}0.03mg/g$. Moreover, YE scavenged DPPH and ABTS effectively in $4mg/m{\ell}$ compared to YW. Cytotoxicity of YE and its fractions in B16F10 melanoma cell was measured using MTT assays. It had no cytotoxicity up to $500{\mu}g/m{\ell}$. Melanin accumulation in B16F10 melanoma cell was induced using alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (${\alpha}-MSH$) and 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX). B16F10 melanoma cell treated with $10-500{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ YE and hexane, ethyl acetate, butanol, $H_2O$ fractions for 24h. Non treated B16F10 melanoma cell (Control) markedly increased melanin contents. In contrast, YE ethylacetate fraction effectively suppressed melanin accumulation in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusion : In conclusion, these results suggest that Yambean extract has the potential as a cosmetic material which possess anti-oxidant and anti-melanogenic activities.

새롭게 도입된 얌빈의 국내 재배기술 확립을 위하여 육묘조건, 적심, 적화, 재식밀도 등의 재배요인에 의한 생장과 수량반응을 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 얌빈은 P.E. 하우스내에 전열 온상을 설치하여 평균 $22^{\circ}C$로 유지하여 30일(적산온도 $650^{\circ}C$) 육묘하면 건전묘 생산이 가능하였다. 트레이 규격에 따른 출현 특성의 차이는 없으며, 셀 크기가 클수록 묘 생장량이 증가하지만 육묘효율, 이식작업의 편의성을 고려하여 128공 트레이가 적합하였다. 7월 하순에서 8월 상순에 120 cm 높이에서 적심을 하면 수량이 23% 가량 많아지며 8월 하순에서 9월 상순 사이에 적화를 하면 괴경수와 괴경중이 증가하여 수량이 32% 가량 많아진다. $50cm{\times}30cm$로 정식하였을 때 관행 $100cm{\times}30cm$보다 수량이 30% 증가하였다. 적심, 적화, 재식밀도 최적조합처리는 무처리에 비해 경제적으로 107%의 이익적인 요소가 발생하였다. 이상의 연구 결과 얌빈의 최적 재배기술 적용을 통해 국내에서 새로운 소득 작목으로서 유망할 것으로 판단된다.

This study was carried out to determine the optimum temperature of the jicama pickle solution by evaluating physicochemical and sensory characteristics at various temperatures. The soaking solution of the jicama pickle was prepared at different temperatures (95, 75, 50, and 25℃). During storage, the titratable acidity, Brix, and the salinity of the jicama pickles increased, and these values increased with increasing temperature of the soaking solution. The higher the temperature of the soaking solution, the lower the L and b values. In all samples, the hardness increased rapidly until the 5th day of storage, and then gradually decreased. During storage, the jicama pickles showed a high tendency to harden at soaking solution temperatures of 75 and 95℃. Sensory evaluation indicated that the taste, flavor, crispness, and overall preference of the jicama pickle were higher at a soaking solution temperature of 75℃ and above. The higher the temperature of the soaking solution, the higher the acceptability. Based on these results, we conclude that soaking solution temperature of 75°¦95℃ in the manufacture of jicama pickles had a positive effect on the reduction in tissue softening and the sensory properties of the jicama pickle.

The purpose of this research was to investigate the inhibitory effect of jicama extract on ${\alpha}$-glucosidase activity, ${\alpha}$-amylase activity, and postprandial hyperglycemia in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic mice. Jicama extract showed prominent inhibitory effects against ${\alpha}$-glucosidase and ${\alpha}$-amylase. The $IC_{50}$ values of jicama extract against ${\alpha}$-glucosidase and ${\alpha}$-amylase were $0.083{\pm}0.004$ and $0.091{\pm}0.017mg/mL$, respectively. The increase in postprandial blood glucose levels was more significantly suppressed in the jicama extract-administered group than in the control group of both STZ-induced diabetic and normal mice. Blood glucose levels of the control group increased to $383.75{\pm}11.54$ and $402.50{\pm}15.32mg/dL$ at 30 and 60 min after a meal and decreased to $349.67{\pm}11.62mg/dL$ at 120 min. However, postprandial blood glucose levels were significantly decreased, when diabetic mice were fed with jicama extract ($342.00{\pm}15.73$, $367.00{\pm}13.00$, and $329.67{\pm}12.43mg/dL$ at 30, 60, and 120 min, respectively). Furthermore, the area under the curve was significantly decreased with jicama extract administration in diabetic mice (P<0.05). Therefore, these results indicate that jicama extract may help decrease postprandial blood glucose level by inhibiting ${\alpha}$-glucosidase.

얌빈(Pachyrhizus erosus, Yam bean)은 멕시코 원산의 아열대성 콩과 식물로서 아삭하고 즙이 많아 생으로 먹거나 다양한 요리재료로 사용되는 구근채소이다. 본 시험은 국내에서 얌빈 재배시 적정 파종시기를 찾고자 수행되었으며, 이를 위해 국내에서 주로 재배되는 2종을 대상으로 하여 온도에 따른 발아특성과 파종시기에 따른 적산온도 및 생산성을 비교하였다. 발아율은 $18^{\circ}C$이상에서 86.0~94.0%를 보였으며, 발아 소요일수는 낮은 온도에서 길게 나타났다. 천군만마 품종이 태국 재래종에 비해 개화기나 구근 형성시기가 더 늦었고, 개화와 구근형성 및 비대에 필요한 적산온도도 각각 $293^{\circ}C$, $280^{\circ}C$, $108^{\circ}C$가 더 소요되었으며, 지상부나 구근의 건물량은 더욱 많았다. 또한, 4월 25일 파종은 다른 시기에 비해 구근형성기까지 일수가 더 소요되었고, 구근형성과 비대시기의 지연으로 수확지수가 낮았으며, 6월 9일 이후 파종시는 영양생장이 충분하지 않은 상태에서 10월 하순 이후 저온 및 서리로 인해 생육이 정지되어 구근의 충분한 비대가 어려웠다. 한편, 5월 10일과 25일에 파종한 경우에는 일장, 온도 등의 변화가 영양생장과 구근형성에 유리하게 작용하여 얌빈 두 종 모두 구근 건물량과 수확지수가 높고 수량이 많아 파종시기로 적합하였다.
