This study examined the physicochemical properties of rice embryo in order to investigate the antioxidative effect of black rice bran pigment fraction on rice embryo lipid oxidation. Color stability of rice bran pigment fraction and acid value of added rice embryo were determined at various conditions of pH, temperature, and storage time. Rice embryo contained more crude protein (22.1%) compared to the rice bran (9.4%). However, rice embryo had a higher lipid content than rice bran, causing lipid oxidation during storage. Pigment fraction were relatively stable in acidic pH of 3.0 stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for 9 days. Rice embryo showed increased acid value with increased storage time and temperature. Furthermore, rice embryo with pigment fraction resulted in lower acid value compared to the control group. Therefore, addition of black rice bran pigment fractions to rice embryo improved storage capacity.

Two electrode-based lactate biosensor was prepared by immobilizing lactate oxidase (LOD) obtained from pediococcus species in a poly(vinyl alcohol). Hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) produced by the reaction of lactate and LOD was detected on the Pt-black that was electrochemically deposited on the Au electrode. Sensors fabricated with Pt-black deposited Au electrode provided a high current of $H_2O_2$ oxidation at a substantially lowered applied potential (+300 mV vs. Ag/AgCl), resulting in reduced interferences from easily oxidizable species such as ascorbic acid, acetaminophen, and uric acid. An outer membrane is formulated by adjusting water uptake of hydrophilic polyurethane (HPU). The sensor performance was evaluated in vitro with both flow-through arrangement and static mode. The sensor showed a linear range from 0.1 mM to about 9.0 mM in 0.05 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.6) containing 0.05 M NaCl. Storing the sensors prepared in this work at $4^{\circ}C$ buffer solution while not in use, they provided same electrochemical performance for more than 25 days.

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of dietary supplementation of the black soldier fly (bsf) larvae on growth performance, carcass rate, and fatty acid profile of chicken meat in broiler chicks. Four hundred eighty 1-d-old broilers (Ross 308) were distributed into 3 treatments with 4 pens at 30 birds per replicate. Treatments were corn-soybean meal based broiler diet (control) and the basal diet replaced with bsf at the level of 3 and 6% respectively. Viability was not different significantly. Body weight gain was higher in control than other treatments. Feed intake was not statistically different of treatments. Feed conversion ratio was lower in control than other treatments. Relative weight of breast meat was significantly increased in all treated groups than in control. But, another relative weights of chicken meat cuts (thigh, wing, neck, back) were not significantly different among the groups. In conclusion, it could be suggested that dietary supplementation of black soldier flylarvae could beneficially improved the performance on broiler.

The aim of this study was to determine the total phenol, total flavonoids, and proanthocyanidin contents of fermented black rice and its fractions, as well as to assess the antioxidant activities. Antioxidative activities were assessed in various in vitro models using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), reducing power, ferric ion reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), and nitrite scavenging activity (Griess reagent assay). Our results show that the antioxidant activity was significantly higher in the low-molecular fraction of fermented black rice than in the other samples (p<0.05). Among the fermented black rice and its fractions, the low-molecular fraction had the highest total phenol ($109.2{\pm}2.9$ mg GAE, gallic acid equivalent/g), total flavonoids ($39.4{\pm}0.8$ mg RE, rutin equivalent/g), and proanthocyanidin ($32.9{\pm}1.4$ mg CE, catechin equivalent/g) contents, which correlated strongly with its antioxidative activity. Considering the high consumer demand due to the beneficial health effects, fermented black rice and its fractions can be utilized to develop functional food, as well as health-promoting and pharmaceutical agents.

This study evaluated the physicochemical properties of a novel black bean milk yogurt made by lactic acid producing bacteria isolated from vinegar (Bacillus acidiproducens, BA) and kimchi (Lactobacillus plantarum, LP). Commercially available Lactobacilli mixture for yogurt (YF) were regarded as control bacteria. To investigate optimal conditions to make black bean yogurt, different types of bacteria (BA and LP) and dilution ratios of black bean milk and water (1:1, 1:1.5, and 1:2) were used. Titratable acidity and pH were affected by these dilution ratios, but not by the different types of Lactobacilli used. Titratable acidity and pH were lowest in the 1:1 diluted sample. The visible cell count, sugar content, and viscosity were significantly higher in the sample containing the black bean milk: water ratio of 1:1 than the rest of the samples. In the sensory test, black bean yogurt made with BA showed a higher overall acceptability score, similar to yogurt made with YF. In conclusion, black bean yogurt made by fermentation with BA and with 1:1 black bean milk:water dilution ratio was better than ones made with LP and at other dilution ratios.
