  • To develop efficient drying method, one of important process in manufacturing of Saengsik, uncooked food, the change of physicochemical characteristics and functional component contents of cereals dried by various drying methods was investigated. The proximate composition and dietary fiber content of rice, brown rice, glutinous rice and barley showed little changes during hot-air drying (50$\circC$, 55$\circC$, 60$\circC$) and freeze-drying. Yellowness(b) value of hot-air dried products was higher than one of freeze-dried products. The content of niacin was 0.77 mg% in milled rice, 1.84 mg% in brown rice, 0.68 mg% in glutinous rice, 1.00 mg% in barely dried by hot-air at 60$\circC$ and was lower than those of other samples. $\beta$-glucan content in barely was not changed by hot-air drying and freeze-drying method. In conclusion, hot-air drying would be recommended for barley having $\beta$-glucan, a kind of functional components and freeze-drying should be used for raw materials having heat-labile components such as niacin.

  • In this study, the nutritional components and functional activities of Sasa borealis leaf tea were evaluated. The proximate compositions were as follows; moisture 5.68%, crude protein 16.38%, crude fat 4.68%, nitrogen free extracts 32.37%, crude fiber 32.36%, and ash 8.53%, respectively. The mineral elements were as follows: K 2,133.83, Ca 1,144.09 and P 543.00 mg%, respectively. The amino acid contents of the Sasa borealis leaf tea were very rich in proline (1,275.26 mg/100 g) and deficient in cystine (71.49 mg/100 g). The major fatty acid components were linoleic acid (50.52%), palmitic acid (18.52%), and oleic acid (14.16%). Finally, based on our sensory evaluations, the $80^{\circ}C$ extracted Sasa borealis leaf tea evidenced the best overall quality. The contents of total phenol and total flavonoids of the 80% methanol and hot water extracts were 15.09, 7.69 mg/g and 12.03, 6.12 mg/g, respectively. The DPPH and $ABTS^+$ radical scavenging activities of the 80% methanol extract from Sasa borealis leaf tea were 86.87% and 83.85% at a concentration of 1.25 mg/mL. The 80% methanol and hot water extracts evidenced reducing power and inhibitory effects against acetylcholinesterase in a dose-dependent manner.

  • Soybean curd (SC) is prepared through the elimination of water-insoluble components and molding by pressing. However, whole soybean curd (WSC) is made without the elimination of water-insoluble components and pressing. Therefore, it was considered that the components contained in WSC might be different from those in SC and we compared their contents of various components, hardness, and morphological features for this study. Ash, dietary fiber, and niacin contents were significantly higher in WSC than in SC. In addition, the carbohydrate and vitamin $K_1$ contents of WSC tended to be higher than those in SC, whereas the hardness of WSC was lower than that of SC. Moreover, electron microscopic analysis showed that the morphological characteristic of WSC consisted of considerably more fine retiform tissues in comparison to SC. Based on their compared nutrition, functional, and quality characteristics, it was suggested that WSC might be superior to SC.

  • To evaluate the possibility of predicting a specific nutrient component, which nay be difficult in analysis, from a component of nutrient relatively easy to analyze, six grass roughage sources (bermuda grass hay, klein grass hay, oat hay, orchard grass straw, tall fescue straw and timothy hay) mainly used in Korea were analyzed for the heat-stable $\alpha-amylase$ treated neutral detergent fiber (aNDF), acid detergent fiber (ADF), acid detergent lignin (ADL), neutral detergent insoluble crude protein (NDICP) and acid detergent insoluble crude protein (ADICP) as well as proximate analytical components, and correlation coefficients between nutrient components were calculated. Some chemical components appeared to have significant correlation (p<0.05) through Pearson's correlation coefficients (i.e. between crude protein (CP) and NDICP in oat hay, orchard grass straw and tall fescue, between CP and ADICP in oat hay and timothy hay, between crude fiber (CF) and aNDF in klein grass hay, tall fescue straw and timothy hay, between CF and ADF in oat hay, tall fescue straw and timothy hay, and between CF and ADL in orchard pass straw and timothy hay). It is therefore suggested that it would be worthy to predict a specific nutrient component, which may be difficult in analysis such as aNDF, ADF, ADL, NDICP and ADICP, from a component of nutrient relatively easy to analyze such as CP and CF. However, it would be needed to improve the correlation coefficients, more samples should be measured.

  • The purpose of this study is to analyze the proximate components (water, crude ash, crude protein, crude fat, and carbohydrates) and nutritive components (vitamin A, C, E, minerals, amino acids, and fatty acids) of rice flour and develop several rice bread recipes using rice flour. The water, crude ash, crude protein, crude lipid, carbohydrate contents of rice flour were measured to be 8.53%, 0.10 g, 6.80 g, 0.14 g and 84.43 g, respectively. No vitamin A was detected in the rice flour, and vitamin C and E contents were found to be 8.30 and 0.3467 mg/100 g, respectively. Calcium, potassium, magnesium, iron, and sodium contents were measured as 6.23, 65.05, 9.78, 0.17 and 2.84 mg/100 g; the large amount of potassium helps to discharge the sodium. Rice flour has nine kinds of essential amino acids in it; essential amino acids form 45.15% of rice flour's content. which is higher than 32.3%. Fatty acids were barely detected in the rice powder; saturated fatty acids were measured as 31.25 mg/100 g, and unsaturated fatty acids as 25.54 mg/100 g. Regarding essential fatty acids, linoleic acids were measured as 41.01 mg/100 g, and linolenic acids as 2.20 mg/100 g. The researcher used rice loaf bread as the base and developed rice bread recipes using rice flour to make a total of 11 items: 8 items with 75% rice flour (rice bagel, rice sweet red-bean bread, rice butter roll bread, rice mocha bread, rice buttertop bread, rice custard cream bread, and rice streusel), 2 items with 80% rice flour (stollen and rice hobbang), and 1 item with 85% rice flour (rice donut).

  • This study is to compare food components and the sensory properties of common and functional Porphyra yezoensis, Pyroligneous liquor, Salicornia herbacea L. and Salicornia herbacea L. treated with oak charcoal. The samples used in this study were provided by a local manufacturer. We analyzed their proximate composition, mineral content, heavy metal content and amino acids. We conducted the sensory evaluation before and after grilling Porphyra yezoenis. Common components are more plentiful in functional Porphyra yezoenis than in common except for carbohydrate and crude fiber. In the case of mineral content, generally functional Porphyra yezoensis contains much more mineral than common except for magnesium and zinc. Especially Salicornia herbacea L. treated with oak charcoal contains abundant iron. Also, Salicornia herbacea L. contains a lot of calcium potassium, copper and sodium. There is a little more heavy metal except for chromium, cadmium and lead in Salicomia herbacea L. treated with oak charcoal than in common that contains a lot of chromium, cadmium and lead, although a wide difference was not discovered between them. In the case of composed amino acid, there are much glutamic acid, glycine, isoleucine and phenylalanine in both Porphyra yezoensis. Especially alanine and phenylalanine are trebled in functional Porphyra yezoensis. Also, there are far more serine and lysine in Salicornia herbacea L. and Salicornia herbacea L. treated with oak charcoal than in common Porphyra yezoensis and Pyroligneous liquor. In the case of the sensory properties, there isn't a big difference before grilling Porphyra yezoensis; however, after grilling, most functional Porphyra yezoenis had good sensory properties results, especially Salicornia herbacea L. were better than Pyroligneous liquor.

  • The purpose of this study was to compare the chemical components and biological activities of Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge (SMB) from different cultivation regions (Gochang, Yeongyang, Jangheung, and China). Proximate compositions and contents of total polyphenols and flavonoids were measured. Depending on the cultivation region, proximate composition of SMB showed significant variations. Total polyphenol and total flavonoid contents were highest in Yeongyang SMB and Gochang SMB, respectively. We prepared hot water and 75% ethanol extracts of SMB from different cultivation regions and also investigated the biological effects of extracts on anti-oxidant, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory activities. Extracts of Yeongyang SMB were the most effective at scavenging DPPH and ABTS free radicals, and hot water extract showed better scavenging activity than 75% ethanol extract. We observed that extracts of Yeongyang SMB exhibited the best antibacterial activity against Bacillus cereus, and 75% ethanol extract showed better antibacterial activity than water extract. Anti-inflammatory activities of SMB extracts from different cultivation regions were investigated through evaluation of their inhibitory effects on production of nitric oxide (NO) in lipopolysaccharides-induced RAW 264.7 cells. At $50{\mu}g/mL$, extract of China SMB showed the highest NO inhibitory activity of 34% among water extracts, and extract of Gochang SMB showed the highest NO inhibitory activity of 68% among 75% ethanol extracts. Salvianolic acid B level was the highest in extract of Yeongyang SMB with values of 110.59 mg/g for water extract and 111.93 mg/g for 75% ethanol extract.

  • Changes in the proximate composition, lipid classes, and fatty acids were studied in chub mackerel Scomber japonicus and Japanese jack mackerel Trachurus japonicus muscles cooked using a frying pan, oven, and microwave oven. The moisture content was high in the raw samples (chub mackerel 65.5%, Japanese jack mackerel 60.5%) and decreased with cooking, especially in the frying pan method (chub mackerel 49.2%, Japanese jack mackerel 49.8%). In contrast, the protein, lipid and ash contents increased significantly with cooking in chub mackerel muscle (P<0.05). However, the lipid content of Japanese jack mackerel muscle showed no significant difference between the samples using the three cooking methods and the raw sample. The dripped lipid contents from the cooked muscles showed the highest levels in the frying pan samples and the lowest levels in the microwave oven samples. The percentage of non-polar lipid (NL) in the total lipid content was over 95% in the muscle lipids (10.43-21.86 g/100 g sample). Prominent fatty acids were 16:0, 18:1n-9, 22:6n-3 (docosahexaenoic acid, DHA), 16:1n-7 and 20:5n-3 (eicosapentaenoic acid, EPA) in both fish muscles and dripped lipids. There was no change in the EPA level in any of the fish muscles, by any cooking method. The percentage of DHA in the muscle of chub mackerel showed the lowest level in the frying pan sample and the highest level in the microwave oven and raw samples, and an intermediate level in the oven sample. However, the percentage of DHA in the Japanese jack mackerel muscle was not significantly different between the various cooking methods. From these results, the microwave oven and oven cooking methods showed relatively low levels of dripped lipid content and loss of n-3 PUFA compared with the frying pan cooking method.
