Three varieties of soybean were acidified by soaking in two kinds of vinegar which were persimmon vinegar and brewed vinegar. Chemical properties of soaking solution and physical and organoleptic properties of soybean during soaking at room temperature for 8 days were studied. The soybeans were acidified in vinegar solution at room temperature for 8 days. The results showed that soybean weight was rapidly increased until first two days and then gradually increased thereafter. Increase in total acidity and sugar concentration and decrease in pH of vinegar solution were also measured during initial soaking stage. The changes in pH and acidity were more significant in brewed vinegar than those in persimmon vinegar, The L values of persimmon vinegar solution after soaking the soybean were relatively lower than that of brewed vinegar. The a values of the vinegar solution used for black beans were increased while that of the vinegar solution used for white beans were decreased, The flavor and texture of acidified bean in persimmon vinegar were more soft and less benny than those acidified in vinegar. However sourness of the acidified beans in persimmon vinegar was much softer higher to those values of brewed vinegar.

It was investigated to identify the volatile compounds of commercial vinegars by dynamic headspace sampling GLC-mass spectrometry, and additionally to evaluate the difference of sensory odor properties among vinegars such as brewed, cider, brown rice and persimmon vinegars. Thirty compounds were identified in four kinds of vinegar, which were composed of 9 carbonyl compounds, 12 esters, 6 alcohols and 3 acids. 3-Hydroxy-2-butanone could be merely detected in some of vinegar samples, and persimmon vinegar was characterized to include more various alcoholic compounds compared to the other kinds of vinegar. 3-Methyl-1-butanol was not detected from any samples of brewed vinegar, but from the most of cider, brown rice and persimmon vinegars. Persimmon vinegar has shown high strength of background odor intensity, and consequently was appeared to be inferior in background (p<0.05) and overall(p<0.01) odor preference scores to cider, brewed and brown rice vinegars.

This study was to investigate interaction between ionization rate and absorption rate of calcium(Ca) in each feeding Ca sources in rats. The results were as follows. 1. The ionized Ca ions 134 into rats were absorbed in about two hours while Ca from other sources like powdered egg-shell Ca or precipitable Ca carbonate caused more than five hours to be absorbed. This means that the ionization of Ca is essential for the fast absorption in rat. 2. Absorption rate were increased in the rank order to brown rice vinegar-Ca acetate > brewed vinegar-Ca acetate > precipitated Ca carbonate > egg-shell Ca powder by feeding sources in rat and absorption rate of brown rice vinegar Ca was appeared 4 times highly than egg-shell Ca powder. 3. Absorption rate of brewed vinegar Ca acetate were appeared excellent, 1.4 times highly in case of the brewed vinegar at no ventilation condition than ventilation condition. 4. Ca concentration in blood serum was significantly enhanced the increased ionization rate of Ca in the above experiment rat models regardless of dietary Ca levels.

The purpose of this study was to develop a new preparation process of ginseng extract using high concentrations of ginsenoside $Rg_3$, a special component in red ginseng. From when the ginseng saponin glycosides transformed into the prosapogenins chemically, they were analyzed using the HPLC method. The ginseng and ginseng extract were processed with several treatment conditions of an edible brewing vinegar. The results indicated that ginsenoside $Rg_3$ quantities increased over 4% at the pH 2-4 level of vinegar treatment. This occurred at temperatures above $R90^{\circ}C$, but not occurred at other pH and temperature condition. In addition, the ginseng and ginseng extract were processed with the twice-brewed vinegar (about 14% acidity). This produced about 1.5 times more ginsenoside $Rg_3$ than those processed with regular amounts of brewing vinegar (about 7% acidity) and persimmon vinegar (about 3% acidity). Though the white ginseng extract was processed with the brewing vinegar over four hr, there was no change for ginsenoside $Rg_3$. However, the VG8-7 was the highest amount of ginsenoside $Rg_3$ (4.71%) in the white ginseng extract, which was processed with the twice-brewed vinegar for nine hr. These results indicate that ginseng treated with vinegar had 10 times the quantity of ginsenoside $Rg_3$, compared to the amount of ginsenoside $Rg_3$ in the generally commercial red ginseng, while ginsenoside $Rg_3$ was not found in raw and white ginseng.

Four kinds of commercial vinegars were investigated to compare physicochemical properties (pH, acidity, color, tannin and metal content), minor components (free sugar, free amino and organic acid), and their organoleptic tastes. The ratio of nonvolatile organic acid to the total organic acid was decreased in the order of brewed, cider, brown rice, and persimmon vinegar. Especially malic acid content was appeared to be highly remarkable in cider vinegar. Glucose and fructose were the predominant components among free sugars regardless of the kinds of vinegar. Free amino acid contents in cider, brown rice and persimmon vinegars have shown a little deviation among the same kind of vinegar samples, but were obviously more abundant than those in brewed vinegars. Color preference, sourness and sweetness of the vinegars were not statistically different (p>0.05) among four kinds of vinegars, whereas overall taste preference, background taste preference and intensity showed significant differences (p<0.05) with respect to the type of vinegar. Brewed and cider vinegars have revealed higher sensory scores in overall and background taste preference than the persimmon and brown rice vinegars. Even though there were no high relationships between minor components and organoleptic taste in commercial vinegars the ratio of acetic acid to the total organic acid was significantly correlated (p<0.01) with the overall taste preference.

Purpose: This study aimed to prepare sea tangle vinegar and test its applicability as a vinegar-based functional salad dressing in terms of physicochemical properties. Methods: Sea tangle vinegar was prepared by mixing sea tangle with sugar and vinegar and fermenting the mixture at room temperature for 3 months. The resulting sea tangle vinegar was examined for its physicochemical properties and antioxidant activity with brewed vinegar and persimmon vinegar as controls. Results: The sea tangle vinegar showed significantly higher viscosity than control vinegars, and shear thinning behavior that is typical for salad dressing containing polymers. In addition, storage modulus (G′) of sea tangle vinegar was relatively high in dynamic viscosity measurement while that of control vinegars remained negligible. Together with the high soluble solids content of sea tangle vinegar, rheological behavior indicates that sea tangle vinegar had soluble polysaccharides extracted from sea tangle, consequently leading to an increase in viscosity. Titratable acidity (TA) and pH were 2.52% and 3.58, respectively, which satisfies the TA and pH requirements for microbiological safety of a salad dressing. Absorbance at 285 nm and Folin Ciocalteu's reagent method revealed that sea tangle vinegar contained antioxidative phenolic compounds. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that sea tangle vinegar could be potentially developed as a vinegar-based functional salad dressing when combined with sensory evaluation in the future.

Changes in isoflavone and oligosaccharides, and some physicochemical properties of Chokong, a pickled and dried soybeans, were investigated during pickling in brewed vinegar at $20^{\circ}C$. The used soybeans were 24 hr germinated soybeans, which was maximumly increased in isoflavone content during germination. The isoflavone contents were significantly increased by approx. 80% in both glycosides and aglycone type of isoflavone after 20 day of pickling at $20^{\circ}C$. The isoflavone values of germinated Chokong were significantly higher than those of ungerminated ones. Pickling the soybeans in vinegar resulted in a rapid initial decrease in oligosaccharides, Particularly in raffinose and stachyose. The pH and soluble solids contents in vinegar increased markedly and L values decreased during initial pickling of 24 hr.

This study was performed to investigate the utility of egg-shell calcium with calcium soak egg-shell in the vinegar. We compared examination eluted quantity with ionization rate in each condition. The results were as follows. 1 The degree of elution and ionization of calcium was proportional to the amount of vinegar and added acetic acid in the vinegar for elution. And ionization rate was the most high in case of 200 ml vinegar volume. 2. fluted quantity were increased in the rank order to 4$0^{\circ}C$ > 3$0^{\circ}C$ > 2$0^{\circ}C$ by temperature but the rank order of ionization of calcium was 3$0^{\circ}C$ > 2$0^{\circ}C$ > 4$0^{\circ}C$ by temperature. The occurrence of unacceptable flavor resulting from the immersion at 4$0^{\circ}C$ was another obstacle to adopt. 3. Eluted quantity and ionization rate of the egg-shell calcium were appeared excellent in case of the brewage vinegar at ventilation condition. The case of brown rice vinegar did not show a considerable difference, but eluted quantity and ionization rate were appeared the most excellent to the other sample. 4. The optimum condition for elution and ionization of the egg-shell calcium was appeared Immersing egg-shells in the brewed rice-bran vinegar at 3$0^{\circ}C$ for three days.
