This study was conducted to investigate the physicochemical properties of the ethanol extracts and soluble dietary fiber from Cassia tora L. seed. The proximate composition of Cassia tora, soluble solid contents, color intensity and contents of emodin and rhein of Cassia tora extract, molecular mass distribution, sugar contents and viscosity of soluble fiber from Cassia tora were analyzed. Cassia tora contains 12.6% of moisture, 5.2% of ash, 13.4% of crude protein, 7.2% of crude fat, 8.8% of insoluble fiber and 48.3% of soluble fiber. The effects of extract condition on soluble solid contents, color intensity and contents of emodin and rhein of Cassia tora extract were investigated. The soluble solid contents were higher in 70% or 50% ethanol extracts than those in 100% ethanol extracts and showed highest value in grind sample extracts. In Hunter's color value, 100% ethanol extracts and whole Cassia tora sample extracts were higher in L and b value, but on the contrary, were lower in a value, than those of the other. The highest emodin and rhein contents were observed in 70% and 50% ethanol extracts, respectively, and showed higher value in room temperature extracts than in heating extracts. The molecular mass of soluble fiber from Cassia tora seed was estimated by gel filtration chromatography. Most soluble fiber(80%) exhibited a molecular mass range of between 50~2000 kDa. The major sugars of soluble fiber from Cassia tora seed were identified as xylose, mannose and galactose. The apparent viscosity of 0.5% soluble fiber from Cassia tora seed was 33 mPas showing a higher value than pectin or xanthan gum.

Physicochemical characteristics of Cassia tora seeds roasted at different conditions were investigated. Intact Cassia tora seeds were composed of water 11.6% crude protein 13.1%, crude fat 4.4%, curde fiber 13.8%, N-free extract 47.2% and ash 4.9%. Stacking volume ratio was increased generally by swelling, but soluble solids were decreased by rosating process L and B values decreased conspicuously as roasting temperature increase, but $\Delta$E value increased. The content of anthraquinones was 1, 200mg% in unroasted Cassia tora seeds, it increased as roasting time and temperature increase and reached maxium amount at 19$0^{\circ}C$-30min, 21$0^{\circ}C$-20min. and 23$0^{\circ}C$-10min. agter that it decreased remarkably. Optimum roasting condition of Cassia tora seeds was 21$0^{\circ}C$-20min.

본 연구는 쌀 첨가 식빵 제조에 있어서 결명자에서 추출한 수용성 식이섬유가 제품의 품질 특성에 미치는 영향을 HPMC, xanthan gum과 비교 검토하였다. 제빵에 사용한 재료는 밀가루와 빵가루를 75:25로 혼합한 가루를 사용하였으며, 식빵의 제빵 특성과 색, 조직감 및 관능검사를 시행하였다. 그 결과 식빵의 부피는 결명자 식이섬유 첨가구가 가장 좋게 나타났으며, xanthan gum첨가구가 가장 낮게 측정되었다. 또한, L값에 있어서는 crust와 crumb 모두 xanthan gum첨가구가 가장 밝았으며, 결명자 식이섬유 첨가구가 가장 어두웠다. 그러나, 색상에 대한 관능검사 결과 유의차는 없는 것으로 나타났다. 조직감 측정기를 이용하여 조직감을 측정한 결과 springiness와 cohesiveness에 있어서는 각 처리구간에 유의차가 없었으나, gummness, hardness, chewness는 결명자 식이섬유 첨가구가 가장 낮고, xanthan gum첨가구가 가장 높았다. 조직감에 대한 관능검사 결과 결명자 식이섬유첨가구가 가장 좋게 평가되었으며, 결명자 식이섬유 첨가구의 종합적인 기호도도 대조군에 비하여 유의차가 없었다. 결명자의 수용성 식이섬유는 쌀 첨가 식빵의 조직감 등 품질을 증진시킬 뿐 아니라 식이섬유 강화 측면에서도 좋은 소재인 것으로 나타났다.

Attempts were made to determine the effects of 5-Korean wild vegetabel consumptions on blood glucose leveles and orgen-energy metabolisms in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. The 5-Korean wild vegetables were : Cassia tora L.(C.t), Lycium chinese Mill(L.c), Trichosanthes kirilowii Max(T.k), Polygonatum odoratum var. Pluriflorum Ohwi(P.o) and Arctium lappa L(A.l). Sixty male Spargue-Dawley rats(160-220g) were induced diabetes mellitus by streptozotocin injection into the tail vein and were devided into 6 groups : a diabetic control and 5-experimental groups. All groups of the rats were fed on a AIN-76 diet, and the 5-experimental groups were fed with each wild vegetable (10%) for four weeks. An increased tendency in body weight of all the groups was observed and the tendency was more significant in L.c, T.k. and P.o. groups. The organ weight of liver and kidney were higher in L.c. and A.l. groups and lower in T.k. group which has shown the improvement from diabetes. Plasma glucose levels were markedly decreased from the 1st week in C.t, T.k. and P.o. groups and the tendency has lasted throughout the four weeks experimental period. The consumption of P.o. has decreased plasma cholesterol level while any significant difference was not seen in plasma protein levels from all the experimental groups. The level of plasma triglyceride was decreased in P.o. group and the levels of plasma free fatty acids were also significantly lower in P.o. and T.k. groups. The liver protein levels were significantly higher in P.o. and T.k. groups and these two groups also showed the negative or relatively small amount of urinary glucose excretion. The experimental group of T.k. has revealed the decreased level of muscles protein and the increased level of muscle glycogen. The 5-Korean wild vegetables contained dietary fiber and 9-analyzed minerals comparable to the ordinary use vegetables.
