The objective of this research is to provide basic information necessary to differentiate between ginseng (Panax ginseng) grown in woods environments and cultivated ginseng. The ginseng saponin (ginsenoside) contents of Korean woods-grown, 4 year-old cultivated, and 6 year-old cultivated ginsengs were determined via HPLC analysis. The total saponins in the woods-grown ginseng (0.648%) were approximately twice that of the 4 year-old cultivated (0.270%) and the 6 year-old cultivated ginsengs (0.280%). The protopanaxadiols (PD)/protopanaxatriols (PT) ratio of the woods-grown ginseng (3.258%) was higher than that of the 4 year-old cultivated (2.456%) and the 6 year-old cultivated ginsengs (2.183%). The $Rb_1/Rg_1$ ratio of the woods-grown ginseng (10.225%) was also higher than those of the 4 year-old cultivated (3.514%) and the 6 year-old cultivated ginsengs (4.865%).

The purpose of the study was to develop a new process to manufacture ginseng extract containing saponin aglycon of high concentration. The process to transform saponin glycosides to saponin aglycon was analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). GCK-1 (open cultured mixture for 1 day at $42^{\circ}C$) had the highest content of protopanaxadiol (0.662%). However, other mixtures (GCK-2, 3, 4, 5, and 6) had less than 0.152% in the content of protopanaxadiol. In case of fermentation by inoculation of Bacillus natto, BNG-5 (B. natto inoculated mixture for 5 days at $42^{\circ}C$) showed the highest content of protopanaxadiol (0.364%). Other mixtures (BNG-1, 2, 3, 4, and 6) also showed the high content of more than 0.2% in protopanaxadiol. B. natto inoculation or open culture fermentation with soybean transformed ginseng saponin glycosides into saponin aglycon.

The purpose of this study is classifying types of American ginseng and estimating their production cost and revenue by the types. Usually, the American ginseng can be classified as 4 different types; wild ginseng(WG), wild simulated ginseng(WSG), woods grown ginseng(WGG), and field cultivated ginseng(FCG). This paper estimates costs and benefits for FCG, WGG, and WSG per acre. The WGG & WSG are produced under the tree at mountain while the FCG is produced at large scale farm with machinery. Annual profit for the FCG is $2,222 while that of the WGG and the WSG are $2,759 and $3,799 per acre. Although quantity produced per acre for the WGG and WSG(600lbs and 160lbs) are much smaller than that of the FCG(3,000lbs), prices per pound for the WGG and WSG($125, 375$) are higher than that of the FCG($24). In addition, production costs for the WGG and WSG are lower than that of the FCG because of the costs for seeds, shadow facility, and chemicals are different by the types of production.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to discuss ginseng properties by historical research. Methods : Historical documentary records of ginseng were used to develop this review. Results : According to the historical research, the first Korean ginseng cultivation started from the Koryo Dynasty around A.D. 1000. Later, during the Chosun Dynasty around A.D. 1500$\sim$1600, the ginseng cultivators established a method of cultivation. Gasam (cultivated ginseng) was cultivated ginseng on the skirts of their domicile. It was reported that Gasam cultivation was broadened throughout the country around A.D. 1790 on Cheongjosilrok. On the other hand, ginseng properties were reported slightly cool in the oriental herbal medicine books from A.D. 250 to A.D. 1600. But, they were reported slightly warm or warm after A.D. 1600. Korean ginseng cultivation started in the Koryo Dynasty around A.D. 1000. Later, during the Chosun Dynasty, the ginseng cultivators established a standard method of cultivation. Gasam, cultivated ginseng, was grown on the outskirts of their domicile. It was reported that Gasam cultivation was broadened throughout the country around 1790 A.D. in Cheongjosilrok. On the other hand, ginseng properties were reported slightly cool in the oriental herbal medicine books from 250 to A.D. 1600, but they were reported slightly warm or warm after A.D. 1600. Conclusions : It suggests that ginseng properties (slightly cool) before A.D. 1600 are wild ginseng. Also, wood-grown ginseng and ginseng properties (slightly warm, warm) after A.D. 1600 are Gasams.

North American ginseng production may have been maximized in the traditional growing areas in the last decade and further increases may be in woods grown root, for niche markets. The marketplace demands high quality roots. Most problems leading to low quality roots start with the grower and can be avoided. These include poor site selection, inadequate soil drainage, untimely and poorly applied pesticides, and neglect of good sanitary practices. Selection of low lying sites increased the plant damage from frost in Ontario in May 2002. Seeding is still the major method of propagation of ginseng in spite of some success in culturing different parts of the plant. Opportunities exist for shortening the stratification period of North American ginseng seed to allow spring planting. This may reduce disease incidence. Since only one-third of ginseng seed sown ultimately produces plants harvested after 3 years any approach that reduces disease incidence and improves seed germination, seedling emergence and crop stand must be pursued. Disease is the major problem in ginseng cutivation from seed stratification, soil preparation prior to planting, right through to drying of the roots. Replant disease remains as an unresolved problem and needs full characterization and new approaches for control. Much progress has been made in research and related extension activities in disease control although challenges will arise such as with Quintozene and its replacement with Quadris for control of diseases caused by Rhizoctonia. Decreased labor populations and increased associated costs for ginseng production are causing rapid mechanization in every aspect of the ginseng industry. Engineers, machinery dealers, and fabricators, and growers are being challenged to increase efficiency by mechanization.

반응표면분석법에 의해 생두를 실험 조건인 $194.82^{\circ}C{\sim}250.00^{\circ}C$의 온도 범위에서 7.93~22.07분의 조건으로 커피원두를 배전하여 이화학적 분석, 물리적 특성, 관능검사 등을 실시하여 최적 조건을 설정하였다. 배전 정도가 커짐에 따라 직경, 길이, 두께 모두가 증가하여 전체적인 팽창률은 증가했지만, 겉보기 밀도의 변화는 그 차이가 적은 것으로 나타났다. pH는 증가하는 반면 총산도와 총페놀함량은 감소하는 경향을 나타내었으며, 고형분함량은 증가하는 유의성을 가지고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 색도는 전체적으로 배전에 의해 갈색에서 검은색으로 변화하며 색도값이 감소하는 형태로 나타났다. 관능검사에 의해서는 전체적인 향과 맛에 따라 큰 차이를 보였으며 향이 배전 조건과 연관성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 유의성을 나타낸 길이, 폭, 향, 고형분 함량과 총페놀함량으로 배전 조건을 설정한 결과, $225^{\circ}C$에서 20분간 배전하는 것이 본 연구 조건에서는 최적의 배전 조건으로 결정되었다.

기능성 스폰지 케이크의 제품 개발을 위하여 항산화효과와 항균력이 있는 건강기능성의 생리활성 소재인 로즈마리 분말을 첨가하여 이화학적특성을 보았다. 스폰지 케이크에 로즈마리 분말의 첨가량은 0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7%(w/w)로 하였고, $20^{\circ}C$에서 3일간 저장하면서 비중, pH, 수분함량, 산가 및 과산화물가를 측정하였다. 로즈마리 분말의 첨가량을 달리한 반죽의 2차 비중은 대조구(0%)가 0.49였으나, 로즈마리 분말 0.7% 첨가구는 0.54로 증가하여 유의차를 보였으나 일반적인 스폰지 케이크를 제조하기 위한 비중의 범위($0.45{\sim}0.55$)에 포함되어 0.7%까지 로즈마리 분말을 첨가해도 스폰지 케이크의 제조에는 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 로즈마리 분말의 첨가량에 비례해서 반죽의 pH는 유의차를 보이며 증가하였으나, 로즈마리 분말의 첨가량에 따른 초기 수분 함량 차이는 없는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나, 저장 기간에 따라 수분함량이 점차 감소하여 저장 3일 후에는 $38.5{\sim}39.7%$로 감소하였으며, 초기 수분함량과는 유의적 차이(p<0.05)를 보였다. 로즈마리 분말의 항산화력을 나타내는 산가와 과산화물가의 변화는 스폰지 케이크에 로즈마리 분말의 첨가량이 높을수록 항산화력이 강하게 나타났다. 스폰지 케이크에 로즈마리 분말을 0.7%까지 첨가하는 것은 제조 적성에 영향을 미치지 않으면서 항산화력은 증가하는 것으로 나타났다.
