The brine Korea cabbage (BKC) with various ingredients was stored at 5$^{\circ}C$ and 15$^{\circ}C$ for 13 days to examine the changes in pH, total acidity, ascorbic, and cholrophylls. Decrease in pH and increase in total acidity in the BKC stored at 15$^{\circ}C$ were greater than in the BKC stored at 5$^{\circ}C$, indicating these changes are closely related to the storage temperature. The effect of ingredints was various; garlic, red pepper powder, and fermented anchovy juice accelerated the decrease in pH and increase in total acidity; mustard powder and leaf mustard suppressed their changes and freen onion and ginger had no effect. At both temperatures, ascorbic acid was remained at high level in the BKC with leaf mustard, but it was maintained at lowest level in the BKC with ferented anchovy juice. Degradation od chlorophylls was slow in the BKC with leaf mustard, which maintained the high level os ascorbic acid during storage. Meanwhilr the degradation of chlorophylls or production of pheophytin and pheophorbide was cinsistent with the production of acid. These results suggset that degradation of chlorophylls in a BKC was positively correlated with ascorbic acid content and the acid produced during storage.

In order to utilize the agricultural waste products, two strains of mold producing powerful cellulolytic enzyme were sereened from various soils, composts, rotten wood and others. The optimum condition of cellulase production was studied. The results obtained were summarized as follows. 1. Two strains of mold which showed remarkably high cellulolytic activity were identified as Aspergillus niger-SM 6 and Trichoderma viride-SM 10. 2. The highest cellulase production was obtained at pH 5.0-6.0 in 5 days. 3. Cellulase production in strain Aspergillus niger-SM 6 increased with the addition of C.M.C., $(NH_4)_2SO_4$, C.S.L., orange peel powder and rice hull. The rice hull, treated with 3N NaOH at $120^{\circ}C$ for 15 min. and neutralized with various acids, was used. Up to 50% of wheat bran could be substituted by the treated rice hull without any decrease of cellulase activity. 4. In the strain of Trichoderma viride-SM 10, cellulase production increased with the addition of C.M.C., $NH_4NO_3$, Vitamin-free casamino acid and orange peel powder, while the other carbon, nitrogen, phosphate sources, natural nutrients and organic substances gave no remarkable effect.

Gel-type yogurt was prepared from egg white powder (EWP), casein and glucose. The effects of EWP on acid production and growth of Lactobacillus were studied. The effect of EWP on sensory properties and volatile aroma compounds were also studied. Acid production by Lactobacillus in EWP (1-3%, W/V) was significantly lower than that by Lactobacillus in milk (control). However, the increase of EWP content from 1 to 3% increased acid production significantly, Number of viable cells of L. acidophilus at 24 hrs in milk and EWP containing samples (1-3%) was $3.1{\times}10^4/ml\;and\8.3{\times}10^7-3.6{\times}10^2/ml.$ respectively Sample containing lower amount of EWP generally showed lower number of viable cells. Sensory property of EWP samples (1-3%) was showed lower than that of milk yogurt (reference). However, sensory property of samples containing EWP 2% or 3% was significantly better than that of sample containing EWP 1%. Though the composition of volatile aroma compounds was slightly different from sample to sample, gas chromatographic analysis detected acetone, ethanol, diacetyl and acetoin in samples fermented by L. acidophilus.

In this study, the ${\beta}$-glucosidase activity and total phenolic and isoflavone contents and antioxidant activities during Cheonggukjang fermentation with bitter melon powder (BMP) were investigated and evaluation of the same was performed. The level of ${\beta}$-glucosidase activity was increased at 48 hr and decreased after 72 hr, and the total phenolic and isoflavone-malonylglycoside and aglycone contents increased, while the antioxidant activities increased, but the total isoflavone and isoflavone-glycoside contents decreased during the Cheonggukjang fermentation. In particular, the soybean with 5% BMP fermented at $37^{\circ}C$ for 72 hr displayed the highest antioxidant activities, among all the samples. The highest levels of total phenolic and daidzein contents and DPPH radical scavenging activity, ABTS radical scavenging activity and FRAP assay results after 72 hr fermentation in Cheonggukjang with 5% BMP were found to be 13.5 mg/g, $390.57{\mu}g/g$, 90.74%, 99.79%, and 1.705 (OD593 nm) respectively. In addition, the more BMP was added to the Cheoggukjang, the more the off-odor of the Cheonggukjang decreased. These results suggest that BMP can be used to come up with a new type of Cheonggukjang with improved palatability and antioxidant activity.

This study was attempted to investigate the physicochemical changes during soybean-leaf water kimchis fermentation by adding wheat flour in cooking water. Soybean-leaf water kimchis with five different levels of wheat flour in cooking water(0%;A, 5%;B 10%;c, 15%;D, 20%;E) were tested for rhological parameters, fine structural changes, sensory evaluations and chemical analysis. The composition of the soybean-leaf was moisture (80.9%), protein(6.8%), fat(0.6%), ash(2.1%) and alkalinity (+14.9). The amount of reducing sugars of sample A and other samples were 0.75% and 1.08∼1.4% in the initial fermentation stage, but decreased to 0.3 and 0.43∼0.50% in the later fermentation stage, respectively. The pH of sample A decreased from 5.17 to 4.72 during the initial fermentation. On sample B, C, D and E, pH's decreased rapidly during the initial fermentation, but they did not change much in the later fermentation stage. The pectin contents of all samples decreased during 2nd and 4th day of fermentation, then the change was slow. The amount of hemicellulose. cellulose and lignin in terms of the DNF and ADF were varied from 4 to 33%, but the contents of them did not greatly changed during the fermentation. The sensory evaluation showed that both B and C samples had the good score in sweety taste, roasted nutty taste, and the ease of swallowing measured as chewiness. From these results, the optimum soybean-leaf water kimchis can be prepared when 200g soybean-leaf, 1000$m\ell$ water, 15g garlic, 3% red pepper powder and 5 ∼0% wheat flour were fermented at 20$^{\circ}C$ for 2 days.

Saponin is the most pharmaceutical active ingredients of the ginseng plant, it was called "Ginsenoside" which means the Glycoside of ginseng that composed glycosides and aglycones. The human body will absorb the saponin easily if these substrate was decomposed by active microorganism. Fermentation is the most convenient technique to decompose this active ingredients. The purpose of this research was to study the sugar content, pH and acidity development during the ginseng fermentation process. Fresh Korean ginseng and red ginseng extract was used as the main ingredient. The concentrated of pure ginseng extract was added to increase the saponin extract. Furthermore, the mix microbial powder was added as starter to increase the fermentation efficiency. The ginseng was fermented in fermentation chamber at temperature $37^{\circ}C$ during 70 days. In the end of experiment the sugar content was decreased from 24% to 7.65%, The pH was decreased from 6.5 to 3.4, and the acidity level was incresed from 0% to 1.2%.

A curd yogurt was prepared from milk added with skim milk powder of four kinds of cereal. The effect of cereals at 2%(w/v) level on acid production by lactic acid bacteria in milk was investigated. The effect of cereals on quality of curd yogurt (apparent viscosity, sensory property) was also examined. Addition of cereals markedly stimulated acid production by lactic acid bacteria. Among three organisms tested, L. acidophilus produced more acid than others. Apparent viscosity of curd yogurt added with corn was the highest while that with barley was the lowest. Curd yogurt fermented with L. acidophilus showed characteristics of thioxotropic flow. Apparent viscosity of curd yogurt added with cereal markedly increased between 6 and 24 hours of fermentation. Sensory property of curd yogurt added with wheat was judged as better than reference sample, but that with barley was lodged as the worst among all samples.

Lactic fermented dongchimi naengmyeun broth which has enhanced antioxidative activity was developed. During lactic fermentation of dongchimi naengmyeun broth at $25^{\circ}C$, changes of total lactic acid bacteria, pH, acidity, soluble phenolics, and anthocyanins were investigated. After 72 h of fermentation, the stronger antioxidant activities were observed in dongchimi naengmyeun broth supplemented with purple sweet potato than those of control dongchimi naengmyeun broth which showing 96.80% in DPPH radical scavenging activity, 100.82% in $ABTs^{+{\cdot}}$ scavenging activity, 7.77 in reducing power, and 6.89 in ferric reducing/antioxidant power, respectively. These high antioxidant activities related with higher contents of soluble phenolics and anthocyanins in dongchimi naengmyeun broth supplemented with purple sweet potato. The results suggest that the making of functional dongchimi naengmyeun broth by using high soluble phenolics and anthocyanins supplements such as purple sweet potato powder was possible.

The main purpose of this study was to survey the various kinds of recipes for pheasant found in seventeen Korean cookbooks published from the 1800's to the 1990's. There were 95 pheasant recipes found in the literature which could be classified into three major groups: cooking with moist heat, cooking with dry heat, and other. The three major groups were then broken down into thirteen smaller groups. A detailed look at the frequency of terms in each recipe shows that Gui Sanjeok (grilled Korean shish kebabs) appears 24 times, Guk Tang and Jeongol (soup and stew) 23 times, Kimchi (fermented cabbage) 11 times, Po (jerky) 9 times, Jorim (boiled in soy sauce) 7 times, Jjim (steamed) 6 times, Bokeum (stir-fried) 5 times, Twigim (deep-fried) 3 times, Buchim (fried) 2 times, Jigae jijim (stewed) 2 times, and Jang (paste), Myeon (noodles), Gooum (boiled) and Yeot (Korean hard taffy) 1 time each. The main ingredient is always the pheasant. We investigated the use of the whole pheasant cooked, how to slice and tenderize pheasant meat, use the meat only, or use only certain parts. Depending on the characteristics of cooking recipes, pheasants with thin, soft bones and organs were investigated for cooking. Substituted materials were used for a few of the vegetables, meat, and seafood in the recipes, and seem to go well together. Garnishes used included pine nut powder and fried eggs. Seasoned salt, soy sauce, pepper, sesame, sesame oil, chopped onion, garlic, and ginger were also reported to have been used.

Salt is a vital inorganic substance to human body and is seasoning in food. It is an absolute alternating factor on fermented food. What's more, in the oriental medicine, it is widely used to raise the pharmacological effect as a component of a prescription when processing a medicine, and when taking the medicine. Though, Importance of salt is often unaware and it is not used in the right way. focusing on "東醫寶鑑 內景篇 Donguibogam-Naegyeong" I categorized the methods of salt's prescription, dose, processing, seasoning, etc. The contents were compared and studied as well. When salt is used as a medicine, It is used as a main medicine, complimentary(aid) medicine, Jjim-Jil(hot towel or bath etc), vomiting medicine and gargling water. when taking the salt water with other medicine, depending on the type of the medicine, boiled salt water, warm alcohol or salt water, mixing powder medicine with salt water etc The methods are diverse. The reason to process medicine with salt or salt water is to bring the pharmacological Qi(energy) down to increase remedial value. When processing a medicine, kneading dough with salt water and the case using food ingredient as medicine salt was used as seasoning. Kneaded mud with salt were used to cover medicine or on the outer surface. This proves that it prevents the dryness and helps the medicine cooked even. Like this, salt is vital and highly-valued medicine in the oriental medicine. learning the right method of using salt and if it were used properly It is considered that it would increase the Pharmacological effect.
