'Nampung', a new soybean cultivar for soy-paste, was developed from the cross between Suwon190 and 'Pokwangkong' by soybean breeding team at the National Institute of Crop Science (NICS) in 2007. A promising line, SS97215-S-S-20, was selected and designated as the name of Milyang162. It was prominent and had good result from regional adaptation yield trials(RYT) for three years from 2005 to 2007 and was released as the name of 'Nampung'. It has a determinate growth habit, white flower, brown pubescence, yellow seed coat, light brown hilum, medium spherical seed (19.9 grams per 100 seeds). 'Nampung' is resistant to soybean mosaic virus and bacterial pustule, the major soybean disease in Korea. It is possible to harvest of 'Nampung' using combine because of it's lodging tolerance, few branches, and high position of pod attachment. The average yield of 'Nampung' is 2.97 ton per hectare in the regional yield trials (RYT) carried out for three years from 2005 to 2007 which is 21 percent higher than the check variety, 'Taekwang'.

Background: Due to the paucity of oceanic resources utilized in the preparation of diets for cultured fish, commercial feed producers have been trying to replace fishmeal (FM) using alternative protein sources such as vegetable protein meals (VMs). One of the main drawbacks of using VMs in fish feed is related to the presence of a variety of anti-nutritional factors, which could trigger an inflammation process in the distal intestine. This reduces the capacity of the enterocytes to absorb nutrients leading to reduced fish growth performances. Methods: We evaluated the mitigating effects of butyrate and taurine used as feed additives on the morphological abnormalities caused by a soybean meal (SBM)-based diet in the distal intestine of sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax). We used three experimental diets, containing the same low percentage of FM and high percentage of SBM; two diets were supplemented with either 0.2% sodium butyrate or taurine. Histological changes in the intestine of fish were determined by light and transmission electron microscopy. Infiltration of $CD45^+$ leucocytes in the lamina propria and in the submucosa was assessed by immunohistochemistry. We also quantified by One-Step Taqman$^{(R)}$ real-time RT-PCR the messenger RNA (mRNA) abundance of a panel of genes involved in the intestinal mucosa inflammatory response such as $TNF{\alpha}$ (tumor necrosis factor alpha) and interleukins: IL-8, IL-$1{\beta}$, IL-10, and IL-6. Results: Fish that received for 2 months the diet with 30% soy protein (16.7% SBM and 12.8% full-fat soy) developed an inflammation in the distal intestine, as confirmed by histological and immunohistochemistry data. The expression of target genes in the intestine was deeply influenced by the type of fish diet. Fish fed with taurine-supplemented diet displayed the lowest number of mRNA copies of IL-$1{\beta}$, IL-8, and IL-10 genes in comparison to fish fed with control or butyrate-supplemented diets. Dietary butyrate caused an upregulation of the $TNF{\alpha}$ gene transcription. Among the quantified interleukins, IL-6 was the only one to be not influenced by the diet. Conclusions: Histological and gene expression data suggest that butyrate and taurine could have a role in normalizing the intestinal abnormalities caused by the SBM, but the underling mechanisms of action seem different.

This experiment was carried out to determine the adequate amount of nitrogen for densely and lately seeded soybean, and the results obtained are as follows; 1) Various fertilization amounts of nitrogen did not effect the date of emergency, but the flowering and the maturing dates were delayed at the plots fertilized the nitrogen heavily. 2) In accordance with an increasing amount of nitrogen fertilization, the length of the stem and the internode was s gnificantly enlongated but the stem diameter was thinned down, and the latter was suggested to be the cause of lodging. 3) The 1,000 grain weight and the number of pods per hill were decreased according to the increasing the amount of nitrogen fertilization. 4) A highly significant difference in grain yield was recognized between varieties but among treatments. However, in case ot the extremly late cultivation, the grain yield of the early maturing variety (Choongbukbaek) was increased at the plot of 6 kg nitrogen.

1. In order to elucidate the differences between varieties of Korean soybean, forty-nine subjects were examined for their chemical constituents. Their proportions varied considerably with the differences in variety. The moisture varied from 10.93% to 12.57%(aver. 11.95%), protein; 33.79% to 47.00%(aver. 39.8%) crude fat; from 16.32% to 24.79%(aver. 19.2%), crude fiber; from 3.03% to 5.57%(aver. 3.98%), ash; from 3.95% to 5.23%(aver. 4.6%) and nitrogen free-extracts (earbohydrates); from 16.58% to 26,81% (aver. 20.57%) Chemical composition of soybean was affected by the varieties as well as their localities of growth. 2. Of the total protein, 33.26% based on the soybean meal was soluble protein and 1.94% insoluble protein in average.

Soaking of soybeans is usually considered necessary as a part of further processing. However the soaking process causes the loss of soluble solids from soybean. The temperature effect on the leaching rate of soluble solids during soaking of soybeans were determined at temperatures ranging from $10^{\circ}-50^{\circ}C$. Soaking temperature and time were found to greatly influence the content of soluble solids. Solid leaching rate constant was increased with temperature ranging from 10 - 33 mg/min. Overall mass transfer coefficient of $66.7\;mg/m^2{\cdot}h$ at $20^{\circ}C$ for Saeal variety was higher as compared with other variety (Kwanggyo, Tanyob), and activation energy was found to be 4026 cal/mole. Z-values to reach different degree of leaching showed the descending tendency with increase of solid leaching.

Chemical and photochemical processes during storage and preparation rapidly degrade retinol, the most active form of vitamin A. therefore, the efficacy of incorporation into liposomes in order to modulate the kinetics of retinol degradation was investigated. Retinol was readily incorporated into multilamellar liposomes that were prepared form soybean phosphatidylcholine; the extent of the incorporation was 98.14±0.93% at pH 9.0 at a ratio of 0.01 : 1 (wt:wt) retinol : phospholipid. It was only marginally lower at higher retinol concentrations. The pH of the hydration buffer had a small effect. The incorporation efficiency ranged from 99.25±0.47% at pH 3 to 97.45±1.13% at pH 11. The time course of the retinol degradation in the aqueous solution in liposomes was compared to that of free retinol and free retinol with α-tocopherol under a variety of conditions of pH(3, 7, and 11), temperature(4, 25, 37, and 50℃), and light exposure(dark, visible, and UV). The retinol that was incorporated into the liposomes degraded significantly slower than the free retinol or retinol with α-tocopherol at pH 7 and 11. At pH 3, where the free retinol degrades rapidly, the degradation kinetics were similar in liposomes and the presence of α-tocopherol. At pH 7.0 and 4℃ in the light, for example, free aqueous retinol was completely degraded within 2 days, while only 20% of the retinol in the liposomes were degraded after 8 days. In general, the protective effect of the liposome incorporation was greater at low temperatures, at neutral and high pH, and in the dark. The results suggest that protection is greater in the solid, gel phase than in the fluid liquid crystalline phase lipids. These results indicate that the incorporation into liposomes can extend the shelf-life of retinol under a variety of conditions of temperature, pH, and ambient light conditions.

The effect of defatted and dehydrated beef muscle on the physical properties of thermoplastically extruded defatted soybean, cottonseed, peanut and sunflower seed flours were investigated. To minimize the adverse effect of meat fat and to increase the mixing efficiency of the meat with defatted oilseed flours at a given moisture level, beef muscle was extracted with chloroform-ethanol(2 : 1) at 2$0^{\circ}C$ and air dried. The variety of oilseed flours used had greater effects on color, expansion, bulk density, water absorption rate and textural strength of the extrudate than did the added level of defatted, dehydrated beef muscle (0 to 20% on a dry weight basis).

This present study suggests a wider view of our ancestors' food culture by examining the generality and peculiarity of the food culture of the Chosun Period by associating the culture with genre paintings made in the $18th{\sim}19th$ century in Korea. People in the Chosun Period outwardly advocated the Confucian idea reflecting the life philosophy of Chinese. However, the vitality of common people's frank and simple lifestyles saturate genre paintings and display Korean food culture and sentiments of the age. Initially this paper examines the history of food sociology through Namjong literary artists' paintings. The meaning and philosophy of drinks are considered in relation to the trend of declining tea culture among scholars in the mid-Chosun Period with the policy of promoting Confucianism and oppressing Buddhism. Secondly, this paper investigates the background of genre paintings in the late Chosun Period, and examines the unique food culture of Koreans appearing in paintings, particularly with regard to the abundance and variety of seasoned vegetables appearing in genre paintings, our ancestors' sentiment appearing in milk-gathering painting, humanity in guest reception, food culture and view of nature in farm villages, fishing life history, food distribution culture, soybean-curd culture, etc.

Cooking properties of one variety(Bongui) and two cultivars(KW-12 and KLS-77005-1) were compared. Soybeans were presoaked in distilled water at room temperature for 16 hr and cooked in an autoclave at $106^{\circ}C{\sim}121^{\circ}C$. The cooking rate was calculated by the maximum cutting force of the cotyledons. The cooking time for all cultivars were 150 min at $106^{\circ}C$ and 14 min at $121^{\circ}C$. The cooking rate constants were similar among cultivars. The z-value which was calculated from the time-temperature combinations that gave the same degrees of cooking for KW-12 was $13.1^{\circ}C$ and the others being $11.5^{\circ}C$.

The effects of temperature on the water uptake rate of soybeans soaked in tap water and 0.5% $NaHCO_3$ solution were studied. The higher the soaking temperature, the faster the hydration rate, and among the three soybean varieties (Tanyob, Kwanggyo and Saeal), Tanyob(the smallest variety) showed faster rate than ocher varieties when soaking in tap water and 0.5% $NaHCO_3$ solution. Activation energy due to weight increase was calculated using Arrhenius equation. z-Values calculated from weight changes to reach different degrees of hydration during soaking showed the tendency to decrease with the increase of hydration degree when soaking in tap water and 0.5% $NaHCO_3$ solution.
