Kang-Nung sik-hae is a traditional Korean fermented fish product which has remained in existence in Kang-Nung district. In order to preserve the traditional culture of Kang-Nung sik-hae and develop it as a commercial product, the property changes of sik-hae were investigated at different fermentation temperatures and periods. The chemical changes during the fermentation of squid(Todarodes pacificus) sik-hae were studied at different fermentation temperatures and periods. The amounts of proximate compositions and salinity did not change significantly at all fermentation temperatures and periods. The value of pH decreased with increasing storage period at all fermentation temperatures except at $5^{\circ}C$, whereas that of lactic acid at all fermentation temperatures increased. The amount of total arginine increased slightly up to 10-day of storage and decreased after that. The amount of $NH_2-N$ increased rapidly up to 15-day of storage at all temperatures and increased slightly after that. The amount of TMAO decreased significantly at $15^{\circ}C\;and\;20^{\circ}C$ and slightly at $5^{\circ}C\;and\;10^{\circ}C$, whereas that of TMA increased significantly at $20^{\circ}C$ up to 5-day of storage and decreased slightly after that. At all experimental temperatures except $5^{\circ}C$, the amount of TMA increased or fluctuated in proportion to the increase in fermentation periods. Inosine and hypoxanthine were the main components of nucleotides and their related compounds during the fermentation of sik-hae. Summarizing the above results, the optimum fermentation period of sik-hae was concluded to be 15-days at all experimental temperatures except $5^{\circ}C$.

There has been a successful re-entry in the form of infant foods and as a product concept of "well-being" milk by feeding goat natural medicinal plants in high mountain lands and goats eating natural feeds. Typical composition of cow's milk and goat's milk are not significantly differ in major nutritional constituents. However, the noticeable differences between milks of the bovine and caprine species concern in the dimensions of the micelles, in casein composition, in size of the micelles and in the mineral charge of the micelle, but the ratio Ca/Pi in the micelle is very close for the two species The potential market in Korea could be expected to expand by keeping its freshness and nutritional benefits. The supply of goat milk products all year around is also an important to the consumers. In order to increase its market scale of goat milk, product manufacturers need extensive advertising promotion. Domestically, goat milk is currently manufactured at small scale dairy goat milk companies and consumed mainly in the form of fresh or fermented goat milk, while imported goat milk powder is used to produce infant goat milk formula by major dairy companies. Decreasing the unpleasant goaty flavour for the Korean consumers would be essential for the researchers who work for dairy science and technology.

Among various health functional foods, probiotics constitute the largest market. The interest in probiotics is increasing continuously according to the research results that gut health can control the immune function of the body, prevent diseases, and assist in treatment. In this study, dairy products and dressing sauces were developed using Ficus carica vinegar (FV), and their effects on colon cells were analyzed. When 5% FV was added to regular milk, the satisfaction with the resulting yogurt and ricotta cheese was high. The dairy product was Leuconostoc lactis, and the number of bacteria was more than 1.0×10⁷~1.0×10⁸ CFU/mL. The product satisfied the health food standards as probiotics. An examination of the cell viability of Caco-2 cells, which proliferate similarly to human intestinal epithelial cells, revealed an approximately 19% increase in the proliferation rate when treated with whey at 10%. An antioxidant activity of up to 58% was recorded when the cells were treated with whey at various concentrations. In addition, excellent adhesion was observed for L.latis isolated from whey. This study confirmed that dairy products made using traditionally fermented FV assist intestinal health effectively as the microbiome.

Medical foods are enteral nutrition for patients, but they cause maladaptation symptoms like diarrhea. Although the cause of diarrhea remains unknown, some studies have indicated that the cause of diarrhea is fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, and polyols (FODMAP). This is a consideration for medical foods since they are easily fermented by intestinal bacterial. In this study, we estimated the FODMAP contents of commercial medical foods and carbohydrate ingredients. We measured the concentrations of FODMAP in 13 types of different medical foods and five types of carbohydrate ingredients by using high performance liquid chromatography with an evaporative light scattering detector (HPLC-ELSD). The limits of detection of FODMAP were fructose, 0.002; lactose, 0.010; raffinose, 0.003; stachyose, 0.032; 1-kestose, 0.005; nystose, 0.012; and 1-fructofuranosylnystose, 0.003 mg/kg. Limits of quantitation of FODMAP were fructose, 0.008; lactose, 0.033; raffinose, 0.009; stachyose, 0.107; 1-kestose, 0.015; nystose, 0.042; and 1-fructofuranosylnystose, 0.011 mg/kg, respectively. Concentration of FODMAP ranged from 0.428~2.968 g/200 mL. Concentrations of carbohydrate ingredients in FODMAP were chicory fiber, 278.423; soy fiber, 27.467; indigestible maltodextrin, 52.384; maltodextrin (DE10~15), 32.973; and maltodextrin (DE15~20), 50.043 g/kg. Contents of carbohydrates were 19.0~41.0 g/200 mL in commercial medical foods. We expected a correlation between contents of carbohydrates and FODMAP, as carbohydrates included FODMAP. However, we detected a low correlation (r=0.55). Since most commercial medical foods have a similar carbohydrate ingredients and nutritional values, the difference between products was determined by FODMAP contents of carbohydrate ingredients. In this study, we analyzed FODMAP contents of commercial medical foods and carbohydrate ingredients. These results are expected to be utilized as basic data for product development and minimizing maladaptation of medical foods.

In this study, the functional properties of royal court (RC) soy sauces, Gungjung-kanjang, were analyzed in vitro. RC soy sauces, traditional soy sauce, and commercial soy sauces were fractionated based on an MW cut-off of 1,000. The total phenolic compounds smaller than and larger than 1,000 MW (low and high fraction) in RC soy sauces were determined to be $101.55{\pm}1.49\sim114.00{\pm}0.11$ mg/L and $32.51{\pm}0.32\sim113.47{\pm}0.43$ mg/L, respectively. The low fraction of RC soy sauces showed around 51% superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activity, which was higher than other soy sauces. Among RC soy sauces, Cheong-jang showed significantly high activity. Significant differences in fibrinolytic and antibacterial activities were not observed between soy sauces. ${\alpha}$-Glucosidase inhibitory activities in the low and high fractions of RC soy sauces were in the range from $6.34{\pm}1.51\sim8.79{\pm}0.81$% and $5.72{\pm}1.29\sim7.94{\pm}0.34$%, respectively. However, ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activity in the high fraction of Kot-jang soy sauce was 75.88%${\pm}$1.20%. Lipase inhibitory activities in the low fractions of RC soy sauces, especially Cheong-jang, Deot-kangang, Jin-jang, and Euyeuk-kanjang, were also measured.

A bacterium, identified as $Bacillus$ $amyloliquefacies$, CNL-90 using 16S rDNA analysis, was isolated from malt grain. The optimal activities of its ${\alpha}$-amylase and protease were observed at pH 6 and $60^{\circ}C$, and at pH 6 and $50^{\circ}C$, respectively although their activities remained stable at pH 7 and $40^{\circ}C$for ${\alpha}$-amylase and at pH 7 and $50^{\circ}C$ for protease. After solid-state fermentation of $B.$ $amyloliquefacies$, CNL-90 on wheat bran for 72hr or 144hr, the ${\alpha}$-amylase and protease activities were 170,000 and 290,000 units/kg, and 290,000 and 310,000 units/kg, respectively. The viable bacterial cell counts were $1.5{\times}10^9$ CFU/g and $2.2{\times}10^9$ CFU/g at 72hr and 144hr of the solid-state fermentation, respectively. A feeding trial with a total of 127 piglets was also conducted. The animals were divided into two groups: an experimental group fed with the fermented product (63 piglets) and a control group (64 piglets). The growth rate of the experimental group was 6.66% higher than that of the control group (P<0.05). The results of this study indicate that the ${\alpha}$-amylase and protease from $B.$ $amyloliquefacies$, CNL-90 can be used for industrial applications due to their activity in production of carbohydrate hydrolysates.

The physicochemical and microbiological studies were conducted to examine the effect of Prunus mume extract on the Dongchimi fermentation. Dongchimi with the addition of various levels (0, 0.05, 01, 0.2 or 0.3%) of Prunus mume extract was fermented at $10^{\circ}C$ for 30 days. The pH of the product decreased in the course of fermentation and it was between 3.8~4.2 at 6~8 days fermentation. Total acidity was decreased by the addition of Prunus mume extract. A more rapid decrease in pH and an increase in total acidity were observed in the control Dongchimi than in that with added Prunus mume extract. The content of vitamin C increased for up to 10 days of fermentation and then gradually decreased. Reducing sugar content increased for up to 10 days, and the highest of sugar content was shown in the Dongchimi with 0.3% of added Prunus mume extract. As Prunus mume extract levels increased, the total viable cell number and the Lactobacillus cell number decreased. Dongchitni in which Prunus mume extract was added gained it,j optimum taste after 10 days of fermentation. The results of this study indicate that Prunus mume extract causes a delay in the fermentation of Dongchimi by slowing down pH drop and inhibiting the Lactobacillus cell growth.

The study was attempted to detemine the ratio of stomach and intestine to viscera gathered on catching vessels, the critical level of VBN content as a freshness quality of viscera of Alaska pollack for raw materials of Changran-jeotgal. It also examined the changes of VBN values, pH and viable tell counts during the fermentation. Then sensory evaluation of the fermented products, Changran-jeotgal, was done according to the freshness of raw materials used. The ratio of stomach and intestine to the gathered viscera on the vessel was about $72\%$, while that of round state of Alaska pollack was about $18\%$. There was no significant relationship in VBN content between fish muscle and viscera. It suggests that VBN content is not a reasonable freshness criteria in viscera but in fish muscle. However, if we use the VBN content as a freshness criteria of viscera for raw materials of Changran-jeotgal, less than $70mg\%$ of VBN value could be recommended. According to the experimental results, the product yields and sensory evaluation scores were no good not only for economical evaluation but also for consumption.

An optional ingredient Perilla Seed paste was adopted to improve the quality of Yulmoo Mul-kimchi during fermentation. The final weight percentage of perilla seed paste in Yulmoo Mul-kimchi was adjusted to 0, 10, 20, 30, and 40% per water respectively. Chemical and sensory characteristics were determined during fermentation at 10$\^{C}$ for 25 days. The effect was varied depending on the amounts of perilla seed paste, but Yulmoo Mul-kimchi fermented with 20% perilla seed paste was most favored for color, smell, sour taste, carbonated taste, texture and overall acceptability in the sensory evaluation. The pH decreased with the increase of total acidity. The total vitamin C content increased initially to the certain level at a certain time of fermentation depending on the level of perilla seed paste, and then decreased later. In case of reducing sugar, the 20% treatment showed the highest content. Turbidity values were generally increased in all samples during fermentation, even though the extents were limited. Total plate count and the number of lactic acid bacteria were gradually increased and then decreased showing the maximum microbial counts during fermentation. The optimum levels of perilla seed paste in Yulmoo Mul-kimchi obtained through experiments were between 20 and 30% of added water content, preferably 20% for color, fermentation-retarding effect, and sensory taste of the product.
