A nuluk, a Korean traditional koji for brewing, was made with wheat flour and Aspergillus usamii mot. shirousamii S1 which had strong abilities in producing amylase and protease. The cultural conditions for the production of saccharogenic and proteolytic enzymes were tested. The productivities of saccharogenic and dextrogenic enzymes were improved when nuluk was made with unsteamed wheat flour as compared with steamed one, but those of proteolytic enzyme and organic acid were reduced. The addition of water containing 0.5% of hydrochloric acid was unfavorable for the production of saccharogenic, dextrogenic and proteolytic enzymes. The optimum ratios of water added to wheat flour for the production of saccharogenic enzyme and proteolytic enzyme were 32% and 28%, respectively on the basis of wheat flour. The optimum temperatures for the production of saccharogenic enzyme and proteolytic enzyme were 36$^{\circ}C$ and 28$^{\circ}C$, respectively. The activity of saccharogenic enzyme reached its maximum after 120 hours of cultivation at 36$^{\circ}C$, but that of proteolytic enzyme 96 hours. The productivity of saccharogenic enzyme was enhanced when the nuluk was molded after 24 hours of precultivation but that of proteolytic enzyme was reduced as compared with no molding.

This paper attempts to investigate the effect of proteolytic enzyme on the absorption and excretion of pyrazinamide. The rat small intestinal absorption of pyrazinamide in the presence of proteolytic enzyme such as chymotrypsin and compounding enzyme (chymotrypsin and trypsin) are increasingly absorbed, but in the trypsin are similar to that of control. Blood levels of pyrazinamide after rabbit's duodenum injection are significantly enhenced to correspond to 112-120% by proteolytic enzymes concentration respectively, but both on the high concentration of chymotrypsin and the low concentration of trypsin are insignificantly enhenced. Proteolytic enzymes do not give the effect on clearance of pyrazinamide. Proteolytic enzymes give the effect on absorption of pyrazinamide, but do not give the effect on excretion of pyrazinamide.

This study was undertaken to investigate the proteolytic enzyme from Neungee mushroom [Sarcodon aspratus (Berk) S. Ito]. The proteolytic activity of Neungee was higher than other several edible mushrooms under various pHs. The potency of proteolytic enzyme of Neungee was same as the digestive drugs containing protease. So the proteolytic activity of the enzyme was increased in neutral or weak alkaline pH, whose characteristics would be alkaline protease. The specific activity of the purified enzyme obtained by using Tris acryl CM-cellulose ion exchange increased 20 times as compared with that of the crude extract. The proteolytic enzyme was stable at room temperature, but decomposition was fast when incubated at higher temperature more than $40^{\circ}C$. The half life of the enzyme was longest in neutral pH and rate constant was increased in acidic or alkaline solution.

This study aimed to determine the effect of enzyme, guar gum, and pressure processing on the digestibility and physicochemical properties of age-friendly liver sausages. Liver sausages were manufactured by adding proteolytic enzyme (Bromelain) and guar gum, and pressure-cooking (0.06 MPa), with the following treatments: control, without proteolytic enzyme; T1, proteolytic enzyme; T2, proteolytic enzyme and guar gum; T3, pressure-cooking; T4, proteolytic enzyme and pressure-cooking; T5, proteolytic enzyme, guar gum, and pressure-cooking. The pH was high in the enzyme- and pressure-processed groups. The pressure-processed groups had lower apparent viscosity than other cooking groups, and it decreased during enzyme treatment. Hardness was lower in the enzyme- and pressure-processed groups than in the control, and the T4 was the lowest. Digestibility was the highest in T4 at 82.58%, and there was no significant difference with that in T5. The general cooking group with enzyme and guar gum also showed higher digestibility than the control (77.50%). As a result of the sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the enzyme- and pressure-treated groups (T4, T5) were degraded more into low-molecular-weight peptides (≤37 kDa) than the control and other treatments. Viscoelasticity showed similar trends for viscous and elastic moduli. Similarly, combined pressure processing and enzymatic treatment decreased viscoelasticity, while guar gum increased elasticity but decreased viscosity. Therefore, the tenderized physical properties and improved digestibility by enzyme and pressurization treatment could be used to produce age-friendly spreadable liver sausages.

The effort of proteolytic enzyme on the absorption and excretion of sulfadimethoxine are investigated in this paper. The rat small intestinal absortion of sulfadimethoxine in the presence of proteolytic enzymes such as chymotrypsin and trypsin are increasingly absorbed more than 20% during 3 hours. Blood levels of sulfadimethoxine following oral administration are not effected by proteolytic enzyme, but both on the high concentration of chymotrypsin and the low concentration of trypsin at only 3 and 4 hours are increased(P<0.05) from that of the control . Blood levels of sulfadimethoxine after duodenum injection are remakably enhensed to correspand to 18.5-25.0% (P<0.01) by the proteolytic enzyme concentration respectively. Proteolytic enzymes did not give influence on excretions of sulfadimethoxine after duodenum and oral administration.

A proteolytic enzyme was extracted from Sarcodon aspratus (Berk) S. Ito by percolation method. Proteolytic activity of the extracted proteolytic enzyme (SAP) was compared with several digestives containing proteolytic enzymes. Potency of SAP was higher than that of the other digestives except for protease. The optimum pH ranse of SAP was similar to that of pancveatin and protease. SAP was more stable than pancreatin and protease under various temperature, alkaline pH, and metal ions. Bovine serum albumin hydrolysing activity of SAP was equivalent to that of pancreatin and protease in small intestine of rats. SAP demonstrated lower adsorption to antacids than pancreatin and protease. Among the mixtures of SAP and several antacids, magnesium oxide-SAP showed the highest proteolytic activity.

A Nuluk, a Korean traditional Koji for brewing, was made with wheat flour and Aspergillus oryzae L2 which had a good aroma and strong abilities In producing saccharogenic and dextrogenic enzymes. The cultural conditions for the production of saccharogenic and proteolytic enzymes were tested. The productivity of dextrogenic enzyme was improved when Nuluk was made with unsteamed wheat flour as compared with steamed one, but that of proteolytic enzyme was reduced. The addition of water containing 0.5% hydrochloric acid was unfavorable for the production of those two enzymes. The optimum ratio of water added to wheat flour for the production of those two enzymes was 28$^{\circ}C$ on the basis of wheat flour, The productivity of saccharogenic enzyme was enhanced when the Nuluk was molded after 20 hours of precultivation, but that of proteolytic enzyme was reduced as compared with no molding. The optimum temperatures for the production of saccharogenic enzyme and proteolytic enzyme were 36$^{\circ}C$ and 28$^{\circ}C$, respectively.

Water extract of mulberry tree barks(Morus alba Linne) was studied for its proteolytic activity. Protein content of the extract was 1.12mg/ml and its specific activity was 5.14U/ml. The enzyme was active on various proteins : the relative acitities were 100 for casein, 63 for albumin, 58 for collagen, 45 for hemoglobin and 36 gelatin, respectively. There suggested that the ability of the enzyme to hydrolyze meat was relatively high since those are major meat proteins. Optimum pH and temperature for proteolytic activity were : pH 6.0 and 6$0^{\circ}C$. And the enzyme was stable at the pH range of 6.0 to 7.0 and temperature between 50 and 8$0^{\circ}C$. Apparent proteolytic activities could support some scientific grounds of traditional application of mulberry tree barks to home cooking for meat tenderization.

A Nuluk, a Korean traditional koji for brewing, was made with wheat flour and Rhizopus japonicus T2 which had a good aroma and strong abilities in producing saccharogenic and proteolytic enzymes, and cultural conditions for the production of those two enzymes were tested. The productivity of saccharogenic enzyme was markedly improved when Nuluk was made with unsteamed wheat flour as compared with that with steamed one, but that of acid protease was reduced. The addition of water containing 0.5% hydrochloric acid was unfavorable for the production of saccharogenic enzyme and neutral protease. The optimum ratio of water added to wheat flour for the production of saccharogenic enzyme and proteolytic enzyme was 28% on the basis of wheat flour. The productivity of saccharogenic enzyme was enhanced "when the Nuluk was molded after 10~20 hours precultivation but that of proteolytic enzyme was reduced as compared with no molding. The optimum temperature for the production of saccharogenic enzyme was 28f and that of proteolyic enzyme was also 28$^{\circ}C$. The optimum cultural time for the production of saccharogenic enzyme was 36 ~72 hours at 3$0^{\circ}C$ and that of proteolytic enzyme was 36 hours.ours.

The proteolytic enzyme extracted from Neungee [Sarcodon aspratus (Berk.) S. Ito] was purified by using Tris-acryl CM-cellulose column chromatography and chromatofocusing. The specific activity of the purified enzyme increased 15.8 times as compared with that of the crude enzyme. The enzyme was homogeneous on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and stable at pH values ranging from 4.0 to 10.8. The enzyme activity remained unchanged when the mushroom and the purified enzyme were stored for 3 years and 6 months at 4°C, respectively. The enzyme was found to be an endogeneous protease.
