Antioxidant effect of traditional doenjang(TD) was reduced by increasing of maturation period. Methanol fractionate of TD matured for 1 year showed strong antioxidant effect against linoleic acid, following the order of hexane and water layer. Antioxidant effect in lipophilic and hydrophilic extracts of TD were gradually increased according to increasing maturation period, whereas their values or two extracts were lower than those or fractionates from TD. Hydrogen-scavenging effect in hydrophobic extract, methanol and butanol fractionates of TD were much higher than those of the other samples. Chloroform and ethylacetate fractionates were markedly lower in the range of $10.57{\sim}22.84\%\;and\;7.82{\sim}22.58\%$, respectively. Anticarcinogenic effect of extracts and fractionates from TD were higher in water fractionates for A549 cell (human lung carcinoma) and methanol fractionates fur MCF-7 cell (human breast adenocarcinoma). Especially, inhibitory effect for growth of cancer cell was increased by the increasing maturation period of TD.

The effects of alcohol concentration (30% 45% and 60%) on quality changes of maesil (Prunus mume) liqueur during leaching and ripening for 5 months were examined. Total acidity, pH and color of the liqueur generally increased with an increase alcohol concentration for 2 months. Thereafter the significant change did not occur. The contents of reducing sugar and polyphenol in the liqueur increased with an increase alcohol concentration and ripening periods. The major components of free sugar in maesil liqueur were fructose, glucose, sucrose and maltose. The content of fructose and glucose were higher than those of sucrose and maltose regardless alcohol concentration. Sucrose and maltose did not detect in the liqueur after leaching and ripening for 2 months. The major components of organic acid in maesil liqueur were citric, lactic, malic, and acetic acids. The optimal alcohol concentration was 45% and the duration of leaching and ripening was about 2 months for production of high-proof maesil liqueur.

Because Lysimachia mauritiana is not able to maintain the seed viablity for a long time, it has difficulties in using for the ornamental plants or landscape gardening. This study was conducted to elucidate the optimal germination conditions of Lysimachia mauritiana seeds. The germination rate of the seeds was higer in light condition than in dark one. In experment determining the proper germination temperature, the germination rates were 2.2%, 96.9% and 91.2% under 35$\circ $C, 25$\circ $C, and 20$\circ $C, respectively in light condition. The approprate temperature for the germination was 25$\circ $C in light. The decreases of germination rate with the increase of the preservation periods was able to recover by priming pretreated with NaCl solution and KNO$_{3}$ + K$_{3}$H$_{2}$PO mixed solutions. When the storage period was 300 days, the germination rate was 75% without priming treatments. But the seeds primed with NaCl 0.1M and KNO$_{3}$ + K$_{3}$H$_{2}$PO mixed solutions 0.1M, showed germination rate above 90%. T$_{50}$ also was shorten from 5.25 without priming to 3.78 with NaCl 0.1M. Seed priming may induce earlier sprouts and increase germination rate of long-preserved seeds of native wild plants.

This study was conducted to investigate the presevative effect of chitosan on soybean leaf kimchi. Three different kinds of chitosan, molecular weihts(M.W) of 2,000, 30,000 and 300,000, were used. Kimchi, prepared by adding chitosan in 0.5% solution or control, was examined for evaluation of pH, acidity, vitamin C and number of Lactic acid bacteria during fermentation at 10$^{\circ}C$ for 20 days. As a result, the pH decreased and acidity increased with increasing fermentation periods. Kimchi with chitosan of M.W 30,000 showed Bower pH, higher acidity, more consitutional vitamin C content, and lower number of tactic acid bacteria than any other treatment. This results suggest that chitosan of M.W 30,000 could be more effective material in presenation of soybean leaf kimchi.

The effects of commercially available antioxidants in fish oil were studied. Induction period of fish oil was determined from the oxidation curve by rancin\mat. The longest Induction period was observed with catechin (1,000 ppm). Among the rosemary extracts (Antox1, Antox2, Antox3), the most effective antioxidant effect was observed with Antox3 even though higher amount (5,000 ppm) was needed compared to catechin. Compared to oder of control, catechin rather than Antox3 did not affect much the odor changes. When ascorbic palmitate, vitamin C, gallic acid, EDTA, citric acid, or propyl gallate as a synergist were added with catechin (500 ppm), vitamin C and ascorbic palmitate prolonged the induction period significantly. This effect was also observed with Antox3 (1,000 ppm). Among all combinations of catechin (500 ppm) and Antox3 (1,000 ppm) with synergists, the longest Induction period was obtained from Antox3 with vitamin C (200 ppm), suggesting that this combination is most effective combination for retarding the oxidation in fish oil.

This study was earned out to develop storage method for the keeping freshness with various packing film(Wrap, PE, PP and AF) and storage temperature(l, 3 and 6$^{\circ}C$) of Pholiota adiposa(CBPM-no6) mushroom. The rate of weight loss packed with Wrap film was 3.17％, but AF film was 1.08％ after 18days. As the storage periods, lightness and yellowness of mushroom packed with PE, PP and AF were slightly increased, while Wrap film was decreased. The color of original raw mushroom preserved 3days using Wrap film and 18 days using PE, PP and AF. As storage temperature high, the rigidity of mushroom decreased. Rigidity of mushroom packed with AF film was less change compared with the other film. Freshness degree of mushroom(refer to Minamide method) could preserve for 3 days using Wrap, 6 days using PE, 9 days using PP and 15days using AF film at 1$^{\circ}C$.

This they was conducted to investigate the surface treated effect of Packaged kimchi on the PH, acidity, total microbe, number of lactic acid bacteria, browning and formation of off-flavor during storage at 10$^{\circ}C$. Kimchi was treated with 70% ethanol(1 time spraying) and attachment of polyethylene film(PE) on the surface of packaged kimchi and stored at 10$^{\circ}C$. pH of the control and ethanol treated kimchi stored for 15 days was decreased to 4.0 level but, the pH of PE-treated kimchi maintained over pH 4.0 until 21 days of storage. The aridity was the same tendency as the pH, which showed delaying of fermentation by PE treatment. Total microbe of PE treated kimchi was lower and number of lactic acid bacteria was higher than those of control and ethanol treated products, respectively. Degree of browning and off-flavor of control and ethanol treated kimchi increased from 13 days of storage, but the degrees of the PE-treated kimchi was lower during all storage periods.

The beginning of digitization activities in the National Library of the Czech Republic are interconnected with the first periods of existence of the UNESCO Memory of the World programme. It was in 1992 when the library accepted the UNESCO proposal to prepare a pilot CD ROM publication for the programme showing the most precious items from its collections. In 1993 - 1995, the publication was followed by two another titles, which presented two medieval manuscripts in their entirety, providing both all the image documentation and scientific description of various features of the original documents. The digitization centre specialized in processing of old manuscripts and old printed books in co operation with the Czech AIP Beroun Company. Nowadays, these two national programmes in which dozens of Czech and also several foreign institutions take part - are represented on their access side by two digital libraries: Manuscriptorium and Kramerius.

This research was conducted to investigate changes in quality characteristics of gamma-irradiated chickens during storage at different temperature and periods. In heme pigment(myoglobin) content, metmyoglobin content of chicken stored at 5$^{\circ}C$ was not affected by gamma irradiation but slightly increased with the increase in storage period. All samples stored at -20$^{\circ}C$ were no different in heme pigment content between nonirradiated and irradiated samples and slightly decreased as the freezing storage period increased. The SDS electrophoresis patterns were not significantly different between nonirradiated and irradiated samples. All samples stored in at 5$^{\circ}C$ showed a prominent breakdown of molecular weights ranging from 97,000 to 116,000 Daltons after 8 weeks' storage. TBA values increased according to the increment of irradiation dose level and storage period at both temperatures, 5$^{\circ}C$and -20$^{\circ}C$. However, The acid value decreased with increasing irradiation dose level. In the VBN value, nonirradiated chickens were four times higher than that of 7 kGy-irradiated one.

This study was conducted to preserve the quality of Gangjung (Traditional Korean cookies) during storage with the addition of sorbitol in Gangjung dough. Sorbitol was added with different levels (0, 1.5, 3%) in the Gangjung dough and the Gangjung samples were stored for different periods (1, 16, and 31 days). Compared to the control group, the Gangjung samples with sorbitol groups had higher moisture content, expansion ratio, and ceil size. As the storage was extended, peroxide values, hardness, fracturability, chewiness and stickiness to teeth were increased, while cohesiveness, moistness, and degree of melting were decreased. From the PCA in the sensory analysis, Gangjung with addition of 3% sorbitol stored for 1, 16, and 31 days showed high levels in moistness, cohesiveness, degree of expansion, cell size, and degree of melting, whiie Gangjung in control group stored for 16 and 31 days showed high levels in fracturability, heated oil flavor, chewiness, and stickiness to teeth. The moisture content of Gangjung was significantly increased as the level of sorbitol was increased. The changes of physicochemical and sensory characteristics by storage were increased in control groups the most, 1.5% sorbitol groups the next, and 3% sorbitol groups the least. Therefore, the sorbitol added groups could be delayed in the quality deterioration during storage, especially in the texture, and could be increased in the preservation of Gangjung.
