  • Soybeans [Glycine max (L.) Merill] are a rich source of antioxidants and other phytonutrients. Soybean sprouts contain many biologically active secondary metabolites and are rich in polyphenols, flavonoids, and phenolic compounds. In the present study, two soybean cultivars, Hosim, with high oleic acid (- 80% in total seed oil), and Pungsannamul, with normal oleic acid (- 23%) in seed, were examined for changes in the content of crude protein, crude oil, total flavonoids, total phenolics, and DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl) during the sprouting duration of 5 days. The protein content in both the varieties was found to increase by the days of sprouting. The crude oil content of Pungsannamul sprouts was found to be maximum on day 1 (16.9%, w/w) and decreased thereafter to reach to the level of 14.8% on day 5. No significant differences in the crude oil content of Hosim sprouts from day 1 to 5 were observed. Flavonoid content was found to increase up to day 4 and then dropped on day 5, in both the cultivars. Total polyphenol content showed a tendency to increase up to day 3 and started to decrease significantly from day 4. DPPH activity was found to increase up to day 5 in both the varieties. All the components studied in the high oleic acid soybean sprouts showed a change in content during the sprouting process similar to the change that would occur in normal oleic acid soybeans. The study showed that the contents of antioxidant, flavonoid, and polyphenol significantly increase during the sprouting.

  • This study was conducted to investigate the characteristics of fermentation and quality of Cheongju prepared by mashing using rice Nuruk inoculated with Aspergillus oryzae. Mashes were prepared by fermentation for 30-50 days using different amounts of fermenting agent, brewing water, milling ratios and fermenting temperatures. Adding fermenting agent at 15% resulted in slow fermentation, but a final alcohol content of 17% (v/v), similar to other samples tested. Addition of higher amounts of Nuruk resulted in increased amounts of citric acid, tartaric acid and malic acid, but low levels of succinic acid. Incomplete fermentation occurred when the ratio of brewing water was low, but the alcohol content (17%) of all samples was similar. When the amount of brewing water was high, the organic acid was levels were high. The speed of saccharification and fermentation was low when fermentation was conducted at $10^{\circ}C$, but the final alcohol content was the highest at this temperature. However, the content of n-propanol, isobutanol, isoamyl alcohol and organic acid was low at low temperature. At this time, the content of citric acid and malic acid was low, but the content of succinic acid was high. A higher milling degree resulted in a lower content of alcohol, organic acid and higher alcohols, with 10% milling resulting in a significantly higher content than the other samples.

  • Objective: Effects of newly isolated Lactobacillus plantarum on the fermentation and chemical composition of fresh rice straw silage was evaluated in this study. Methods: Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from good crop silage were screened by growing them in MRS broth and a minimal medium with low carbohydrate content. Selected LAB (LAB 1821) were Gram-positive, rods, catalase negative, and were identified to be Lactobacillus plantarum based on their biochemical characteristics and a 16S rRNA analysis. Fresh rice straw was ensiled with two isolated LAB (1821 and 1841), two commercial inoculants (HM/F and P1132) and no additive as a control. Results: After 2 months of storage at ambient temperature, rice straw silages treated with additives were well-preserved, the pH values and butyric and acetic acid contents were lower, and the lactic acid content and lactic/acetic acid ratio were higher than those in the control (p<0.05). Acidity (pH) was lowest, and lactic acid highest, in 1821-treated silage (p<0.05). The $NH_3-N$ content decreased significantly in inoculant-treated silage (p<0.05) and the $NH_3-N$ content in 1821-treated silage was lowest among the treatments. The dry matter (DM) content of the control silage was lower than that of fresh rice straw (p<0.05), while that of the 1841- and p1174-inoculant-treated silages was significantly higher than that of HM/F-treated silage. Microbial additives did not have any significant (p>0.05) effect on acid detergent fiber or neutral detergent fiber contents. Crude protein (CP) content and in vitro DM digestibility (IVDMD) increased after inoculation of LAB 1821 (p<0.05). Conclusion: LAB 1821 increased the CP, IVDMD, lactic acid content and ratio of lactic acid to acetic acid in rice straw silage and decreased the pH, acetic acid, $NH_3-N$, and butyric acid contents. Therefore, adding LAB 1821 improved the fermentation quality and feed value of rice straw silage.

  • In this study, eel, puffer and snake head fish, which are widely taken and highly valued for processing into baked fish, soup or fish juice were studied by classifying them into wild fish and cultured fish, and evaluated in terms of taste. The samples were gathered in the area including Kimhae, Samchonpo and Haman in Kyungsangnam-do, Kangsu-Gu in Pusan and Bukcheju-Gun in Cheju-do. Proximate compositions, the content of nucleotides and their related compounds, total and free amino acids, organic acids and fatty acids of the fishes were analysed. Generally, as for the compositions, wild fish had a higher crude fat content and a lower moisture content as compared with cultured fish, while there was no great difference between them in terms of crude protein and ash contents. Nucleotides and their related compounds including ATP, ADP, AMP, IMP, HxR, Hx were detected, and the amounts of which were nearly the same with respect to the growth conditions. IMP content was high in all of the samples, while ATP content was extremely low. Total 17 amino acids were detected from the samples, and most of the samples had high contents of glutamic acid, aspartic acid, lysine, leucine, glycine, alanine and arginine, and low contents of cystein, isoleucine and methionine. As for the other amino acids, generally same level of contents were detected for each samples. In cases of eel and snake head fish, the wild fish had higher total amino acid contents in comparison with cultured fish. And the result to the contrary was obtained for the case of puffer. Sample fishes had nearly the same compose distribution of free amino acid though the contents of which were a little different according to the samples. Each sample had high contents of taurine, hydroxyproline, glutamic acid, glycine, cystathionine, ${\beta}-aminoisobutyric$ acid and lysine. Total organic acid contents of cultured fish was higher than that of wild fish. All fishes commonly had high contents of lactic acid, iso-valeric acid, oxalic acid and fumaric acid. High levels of $C_{16:0},\;C_{16:1},\;C_{18:1(cis)},\;C_{18:3},\;and\;C_{22:6}$ were shown in all of the samples and ${\omega}-3$ polyunsaturated fatty acid content of cultured fish was higher than that of wild fish, and as for the essential fatty acid, wild fish has higher content in comparison with cultured fish.

  • To extend the shelf-life of Kochujang, the effects of anti-browning agents and their optimum concentrations were evaluated using organic acids as synergists. Among the physicochemical analyses, amino nitrogen content exhibited the highest correlation with sensory score. Ascorbic acid and citric acid were selected among the anti-browning agents(ascorbic acid, potassium sorbate, calcium chloride) and organic acids(citric acid, lactic acid, oxalic acid) tested on the basis of the highest amino nitrogen content during storage at 55$^{\circ}C$. The appropriate concentration of ascorbic acid was 0.03% based on amino nitrogen content during storage at 55$^{\circ}C$. Combination of 0.06% citric acid with 0.03% ascorbic acid showed the highest amino nitrogen content during storage at 55$^{\circ}C$. From the results, the 0.03% ascorbic acid and 0.06% citric acid were selected as additives for extending the shelf-life. Control(no additive) and additives(0.03% ascorbic acid and 0.06% citric acid) were tested for physicochemical and sensory analyses during storage at 45$^{\circ}C$ and 55$^{\circ}C$. Amino nitrogen content was also highly correlated with sensory score, The marginal amounts of amino nitrogen for control and additives were 174.9mg% and 173.2mg%, respectively. Degradation rate of amino nitrogen was a first order reaction. Compared to control, the predicted shelf-life for adding additives increased 69% and 56% at 45$^{\circ}C$ and 55$^{\circ}C$, respectively.

  • In order to analyze the lipid composition ana chemical characteristics of rapeseed oil in relation to content of erucic acid, three recommendable cultivars(MOK-PO 70, MOK-PO DANGYO 12 and 14) seeds were used. The composition of lipid was confirmed by column chromatography and TLC, and the composition of fatty acid in total and neutral lipid was determined by GLC, and the results were as follows. 1. The crude fat was 44.0% to 45.3% in all cultivars. 2. The iodine value, saponification value, acid value and nonsaponifiable content were 100 to 101, 176 to 184, 0.7 to 0.9 and 1.0 to 1.2, respectively, with no remarkable difference among three cultivars. 3. The content of neutral lipid was 95.3% to 96.3% of total lipid, and others were compound lipids. 4. The content to triglyceride was 92. 1% to 92.5% of total lipid. Diglyceride and sterol ester were contained 1.1% and 1.2%, respectively. There was a small quantity of free fatty acid and free sterol and monoglyceride was little. 5. The erucic acid was the highest (26.4%), in MOK-PO DANGYO 12 among the composition of fatty acid, while those of MOK-PO 70 and MOK-PO DANGYO 14 were so small as 1.0% and 3.9%. The content of erucic acid was decreased with the increase of oleic acid, the content of oleic acid in MOK-PO DANGYO 12 was 30%, 63% in MOK-PO 70 and, 60% in MOK-PO DANGYO 14. The content of linoleic acid and linolenic acid showed no remarkable difference but that of eicosenoic acid was 11.7% in MOK-PO DANGYO 12 as the highest. The ratio of the fatty acid content in eluted neutral lipid and the total oil showed no remarkable differences.

  • This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of formic acid addition(0.2%, 0.4% and 0.6% levels) and wilt on the quality of barley silage in accordance with growth stage, and pH and organic acid content were also analyzed. The results obtained were summarized as follows: 1. In the chemical composition of raw barley, moisture, crude protein and crude fat were decreased with advancing the maturity, but crude fiber and NFE were reversely increased. The water soluble carbohydrate content was 12.7% in the milky stage and was the highest among growth stages. It was also decreased with advancing the maturity. 2. The crude protein content of barley silage was increased by addition of formic acid and wilt treatment. ADF and NDF content were increased with advancing the maturity. ADF content was decreased in proportion to addition of formic acid. 3. pH tended to a little increase with advancing the maturity and was a little low by increasing the level of formic acid. The lactic acid content was the highest in the milky stage and in the 0.6% formic acid addition. Based on the above results, it would be suggested that the superior quality of barley can be produced from the heading stage to the milky stage from 0.4% to 0.6% in the level of formic acid for the making of barley silage.
