For-${\alpha}$-APM was efficiently prepared by the reaction of For-Asp anhydride and Phe-OMe in methylethylketone, $CH_3CN$, and in water. The selective recovery of For-${\alpha}$-APM from the resulting For-${\alpha}$-APM and For-${\beta}$-APM mixture was possible via repetitive extraction at constant pH of 4.00. The oxidative deformylation was successfully performed by using several oxidants including $H_2_O2$/THF, sodium percarbonate, and $H_2_O2$/HCl/MeOH giving APM in high yields. The efficiency of the oxidative deformylation was raised in acidic condition for all the deformylation reactions.

Optimum conditions for immobilization of thermolysin, a metalloendopeptidase catalyzing synthesis of aspartame precursors, were investigated with using Amberlie XAD-7 as carrier and glutaraldehyde as cross-linking agent. Adsorption of thermolysin onto the carrier was rapid at the initial stage and 96% of the enzyme was adsorbed after 24 hours at $5^{\circ}C$. There was a linear relationship between amount of thermolysin adsorbed and thermolysin loaded upto 300g per liter of carrier. The effective range of cross-linking time, concentration of glutaraldehyde and pH for immobilization of the enzyme were $3{\sim}7\;hours,\;6{\sim}12.5%\;and\;pH\;6.0{\sim}7.0$, respectively. Degree of cross-linking and residual enzyme activity were high when cross-linked for 7 hours with 6% glutaraldehyde or for 3 hours with 12.5% glutaraldehyde. The residual enzyme activity was over 30% under these conditions.

This study was conducted to investigate the characteristics of Sikhye as affected by different amount of cooked rice and malt, and by different kinds of sweeteners. In the various Sikhyes made with the different amount of cooked rice and malt, the degree of such sensory properties as color and malt odor significantly increased with the increased amount of malt. As the amount of cooked rice increased, sensory properties such as turbidity, sweetness and viscosity increased. Reducing sugar content in Sikhye was consistent with those of sensory evaluation on sweetness. Sikhyes containing aspartame, saccharin, sorbitol or sucrose at equisweet levels to Sikhyes containing 10% sucrose showed different sensory characteristics except sweetness. Sikhye sweetened with mixtures of substituted sweeteners showed increase in sweetness and differences in bitterness and astringency compared with Sikhye containing 10% sucrose.

The aims of this study were to estimate daily intakes of artificial sweeteners from beverages and liquid teas as well as evaluate their potential health risks in Korean children and adolescents (1 to 19 years old). Dietary intake assessment was conducted using actual levels of aspartame, acesulfame-K, and sucralose in non-alcoholic beverages (651 beverages and 87 liquid teas), and food consumption amounts were drawn from "The Fourth Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2007~2009)". To estimate dietary intake of non-alcoholic beverages, a total of 6,082 children and adolescents (Scenario I) were compared to 1,704 non-alcoholic beverage consumption subjects (Scenario II). The estimated daily intake of artificial sweeteners was calculated based on point estimates and probabilistic estimates. The values of probabilistic artificial sweeteners intakes were presented by a Monte Carlo approach considering probabilistic density functions of variables. The level of safety for artificial sweeteners was evaluated by comparisons with acceptable daily intakes (ADI) of aspartame (0~40 mg/kg bw/day), acesulfame-K (0~15 mg/kg bw/day), and sucralose (0~15 mg/kg bw/day) set by the World Health Organization. For total children and adolescents (Scenario I), mean daily intakes of aspartame, acesulfame-K, and sucralose estimated by probabilistic estimates using Monte Carlo simulation were 0.09, 0.01, and 0.04 mg/kg bw/day, respectively, and 95th percentile daily intakes were 0.30, 0.02, and 0.13 mg/kg bw/day, respectively. For consumers-only (Scenario II), mean daily intakes of aspartame, acesulfame-K, and sucralose estimated by probabilistic estimates using Monte Carlo simulation were 0.52, 0.03, and 0.22 mg/kg bw/day, respectively, and 95th percentile daily intakes were 1.80, 0.12, and 0.75 mg/kg bw/day, respectively. For scenarios I and II, neither aspartame, acesulfame-K, nor sucralose had a mean and 95th percentile intake that exceeded 5.06% of ADI.

A fast dissolving tablet was developed using the freeze-drying technique. Hyeonggaeyeongyotang was selected as a model oriental medicine. Formulation and processing parameters were studied to obtain freeze-dried tablet with high drug loading, good palatability, and fast disintegration time. $Kollidon^{(R)}$ CLM served as both matrix former and taste masking agent. Ethanol used as co-solvent, decreased the disintegration time of tablet. Aspartame was employed to impart better taste. Drying condition was found to have a major effect in the morphology of the tablets. Freeze-drying process was optimized to decrease the processing time and improve the appearance of the tablets.

In order to reduce the obesity incidence, the development of sugarless, low calorie foods and ingredients are required, so normally quality substantially sugarless or fat free food composition comprising a flavoring amount of a low calorie sweeteners such as sugar alcohol, oligosaccharide and natural high sweeteners including stevia, aspartam, sucralose for food processing because of the malady of livelihood habit cause by the obesity. In as much as common sugar is high in calories and its sweetening effect can be obtained with relatively low calorie artificial sweeteners such as stevia, aspartame many products have been offered which are sugar-free, the sweetening effect being obtained with and artificial sweetener.

아스파탐(N-${\alpha}-L-aspartyl-L-phenylalanine-methylester)$은 아스파르트산과 메칠 페닐알라닌의 펩티드결합 화합물로서 설당의 $180{\sim}200$배의 감미도를 가지고 있으며 감미의 성상이 비교적 설탕에 유사하고 충치원인균에 의해서 발효가 되지 않으므로 새로운 설탕의 대체품으로서 국내외적으로 그 소비량이 급증하고 있다. 본고에서는 아스파탐의 감미도와 감미성상, 화학적 안정성과 위생적인 안전성에 대해서 살펴보고 각종 식품에서의 이용현황을 조사하였다. 그리고 현재 사용되고 있는 화학적 합성법을 소개하고 아울러 생산수율이나 제조공정상 화학적 합성법보다 유리할 것으로 생각되는 효소적합성 방법에 대한 연구현황 및 가능성에 대해서 개략적으로 서술하였다.

APM의 화학적, 효소적 합성방법의 선택은 각기의 장단점을 비교 검토한 후 결정해야 할 문제로서, 수율, 공정의 효율성, 작업환경, 경제성 등의 여러 요인이 영향을 줄 수 있으나, 최근의 연구동향 및 산업적 생산의 추이는 효소를 이용한 bioconversion process에 의한 방식으로 나아가는 듯 하다. 결론적으로 bioconversion process에 의한 APM의 생산은 반응매질로써 유기용매의 사용이 불가피하므로 효소의 안정성을 증가시켜 장기간 사용할 수 있는 신기술의 개발이 필요하며 기존의 고정화 기술은 그 좋은 예가 될 수 있다. 또한 보호기의 도입과 제거과정이 보다 용이해야하며 더 나아가서 보호기의 부착없이도 반응을 가능케하는, 기질에 대한 특이성이 높은 새로운 효소(예를 들어 exopeptidase를 사용하면 기질에 보호기를 붙일 필요가 없으므로 화학적 방법에 비해 훨씬 유리하다)의 screening이 절실하다. 아울러 유기용매로 인한 효소의 deactivation mechanism의 규명과 반응기 운전 system의 개발이 요구된다 하겠다.

This study attempts to examine the setting time retarding properties of cement paste according to the sugar type change. It was confirmed that the setting time retarding performance was excellent in the order of sugar powder and white sugar, and that the setting time retarding performance of saccharin and aspartame was insignificant.
