Plasteins were synthesized from a peptic sardine protein hydrolysate by pepsin, ${\alpha}-chymotrypsin$ pretense(from Aspergillus saitoi) and papain under the optimum conditions of previous paper. L -glutamic acid diethylester and L-leucine ethylester also were incorporated into plastein during the plastein reaction by papain. General composition, yield, molecular weight and amino acid composition were measured. The protein, ash and lipid rontent of plasteins were $81.1{\sim}88.2%$, $1.9{\sim}7.6%$ and $0.3{\sim}0.8%$, respectively. The yield of plasteins were pretense plastein 52.3%, papain plastein 44.2%, pepsin plnstein 43.6%, ${\alpha}-chymotrypsin$ plastein 43.2%. Leu -papain plastein 33. 2% and Glu - papain plastein 29.0%. The glutamic acid and leucine content in Glu -papain plastein and Leu -papain plastein were 39.0%, 37.5%, respectively. While the contents in the papain plastein were 14.3%, 7.1%, respectively. The amino acid composition of plasteins were similar to that of peptic sardine protein hydrolysate. The major molecular weight of the peptic hydrolysnte estimated by gelfilteration were 1,800 and 285, and those of plasteins were 26,000 and 9,100 for ${\alpha}-chymotrypsin$, 23,000, 10,000 and 4,300 for pepsin, 18,000 for pretense, 13,000 for papain, 29,000 for Leu -papain plastein and 19,000 for Glu -papain plastein.

Regarding the physical properties of wheat flour added with lily's root powder, elasticity in farinograms tended to increase as the ratio of added lily's root powder increased. However, viscoelasticity, absorptivity, absorption time, and stability tended to decrease after an initial increase when a certain ratio of lily's root powder was added to the wheat flour. Results from the rapid viscosity analyzer (RVA) indicated that the retention strength, final viscosity, break down, set back value, $P_{max}$ value of the alveogram, and falling number value decreased. As for gaseous release, measured with a rheofermentometer, the total amount of $CO_2$ gas generated and retained tended to decrease. As for the gelatinizing properties in terms of differences in the granularity and the amount of lily's root powder (bulbs) added to wheat flour, the initial gelatinization temperature had no effect regardless of the type or amount of general grinding and minute (ultra-fine, $10\;{\mu}m$) lily's root powder. Meanwhile, the peak viscosity and peak viscosity time exhibited significant differences in 3, 5% general grinding lily's root powder additive groups. On the other hand, there was no significant difference between 3, 5% minute lily's root powder additive groups. This is likely because the activity of the enzyme in wheat flour decreased relatively and differences in the lily's root powder granularity resulted in a variation in water absorptivity. In the preference test, flavor retention of the functional bread increased according to the granularity of lily's root powder and the ratio of added lily's root powder, thus resulting in significant differences in the mouth feel and flavor; the texture and crumb color, however, did not exhibit significant differences.

In order to improve the functional properties of kochujang, garic porridge was added to traditional kochujang during manufacturing. Changes in physiochemical properties of kochujang by garic porridge addition were then investigated. No big differences in general chemical compositions was observed between three kinds of kochujangs tested in this study, general kochujang purchased from a market (GK), kochujang added with raw garlic (RGK) and kochujang added with garlic porridge (GPK). However, GPK showed higher level of antioxidant and anticancer activities than those of others. The methanolic extract of GPK showed 66.38% of DPPH radical scavenging activity, while the extracts of GK and RGK exhibited 38.44% and 50.97%, respectively. Also, the effects of three different extracts of kochujangs on cell proliferation of stomach cancer cell (MKN 45), colon cancer cell (HCT116), and lung cancer cell (NCI-H460) were investigated using MTT assay. All of three extracts exhibited the highest anti-proliferative activity against stomach cancer cell, even though the proliferation of colon cancer cell and lung cancer cell were also inhibited. Among them, the extract of GPK showed the highest anti-proliferative activity (62.35%) against stomach cancer cell. From the results obtained in the present study, we concluded that the antioxidant and anticancer activity of GPK mainly originated from garlic because GPK was consisted of 23% garlic (w/w) compared to 10% (w/w) of RGK.

The purpose of this study was to identify differences of perceptions for gardens and parks between experts and the general public concerning several aspects including scope, scale, publicity, artistic and scientific nature, main materials, practicality and aesthetics, executive and management systems as well as legal understanding of garden and park. The properties of garden and park were derived through literature research, and the concept, similarity, and difference of gardens and the parks were recognized by the experts and the public viewpoint was clarified by questionnaire. As for the difference in the scope of the gardens and the parks, the expert group recognized it more widely than the general public. In general, the space recognized as a garden was the rooftop green space, and urban forests were recognized as a park. In addition, the general public recognized urban forests as gardens the same as they recognized parks, and the distinction was unclear. In the expert group, the perception that gardens were small and the parks were large was more prevalent. It was generally recognized that gardens were private spaces and the parks were public spaces. In the expert group, the gardens were more personal and the parks were more apparent to the public. In the general population, functional and scientific aspects rather than artistic creativity in both gardens and parks. In addition, both the general public and experts found that parks are more complex than gardens. The garden was centered on plant material, and the park was recognized as a center where the sculptural facilities were centered, or the plant material and the sculptural facilities were properly balanced. To the experts the view of the gardens was positive. Expert groups emphasized the aesthetics of the garden, and the parks were more practical, and the general population showed similar perceptions of utility and aesthetics when comparing gardens and parks. In addition, the utility of gardens in the general publics is more emphasized than the aesthetics of the park. Regarding the executive system the park was recognized as the public sector, and the difference was larger in the expert group. As for the management system, both experts and the general public perceive the management of the park or the garden to be carried out by the supporting organization, and it is necessary to discuss the diversification of the management subject. It is found that there is a certain difference in recognition with the mixture of concepts, and there is still a big difference in legal system and perception.

In order to develop a new type of food source for the effective utilization of fish protein, plastein reaction was applied to improve the functional properties of filefish protein. Plasteins were synthesized from a peptic filefish protein hydrolysate by papain, pepsin, $\alpha-chymotrypsin$ and protease(from Streptomyces griceus) under the optimum conditions of previous paper). Also, L-glutamic acid diethylester and L-leucine ethylester were incorporated into plastein during the plastein reaction by papain. And, General composition, yield, molecular weight, amino acid composition, color and IR spectrum of plasteins were measured. The protein, ash and lipid content of the plasteins were $72\~78\%,\;7.4\~11.8\%\;and\;0.3\~0.9\%$ respectively. The yield of plasteins were papain $55.0\%,\;pepsin\;47.6\%,\;\alpha-chymotrypsin\;38.3\%,\;protease\;23.6\%$, glutamic acid-incorporated plastein (Glu-Plastein) $35.0\%$, and leucine-incorporated plastein (Leu-plastein) $45.7\%$. The glutamic acid and leucine content in Glu-plastein and Leu-plastein were $38.7\%,\;41,7\%$, respectively, while the contents in the peptic filefish protein hydrolysate were $16.01\%\;and\;8.16\%$, respectively. The amino acid compositions were similar to that of the original filefish muscle protein. The major molecular weights of the peptic hydrolysate estimated by gel filteration were 2,000 and 310, and those of plasteihs were 21,000 and 4,900 for papain, 24,000 for pepsin, 18,500 for $\alpha-chymotrypsin$ 6,700 for protease, 24,000 for Glu-plastein and 17,000 for Leu-plastein. The structural changes in freeze-dried filefish meat, the FPC and hydrolysate were not observed on the IR spectrum. But plasteins showed amide I band in $1,600\~l,700cm^{-1}$ range and resulted in a strong band in $800\~850\;cm^{-1},\;700\~750\;cm^{-1}\;and\;650\~700\;cm^{-1}$. The amide I band of Glu-plastein was wider than those of other plasteins and had also a small band at $1,440\;cm^{-1}$.

The feasibility of incorporating Cynanchi wilfordii powder as a value-added food ingredient in convenient food products was investigated using yanggaeng as a model system. C. wilfordii powder was incorporated into yanggaeng at 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8% weight amounts based on total weight of cooked white bean and C. wilfordii powder. pH increased significantly, and moisture content ranged from 45.40% to 47.40% with increasing levels of C. wilfordii powder (P<0.05). In terms of color, lightness, redness, and yellowness increased significantly (P<0.05) with increasing levels of C. wilfordii powder. Hardness significantly decreased with higher amounts of C. wilfordii powder (P<0.05). Total polyphenol content and DPPH radical scavenging activity were significantly influenced by addition of C. wilfordii powder, and they increased significantly as C. wilfordii powder concentration increased (P<0.05). Finally, consumer acceptance test indicated that the highest levels of C. wilfordii powder (8%, w/w) had considerable adverse effects on consumer preferences in general. In contrast, yanggaengs with moderate levels of C. wilfordii powder (2%, w/w) are recommended (with respect to overall preference score) to take advantage of the functional properties of C. wilfordii powder without sacrificing consumer acceptability.

The present study was performed to develop a functional raw food material from hydrolyzed whey protein powder (23%-GNANA) medication containing sialic acid as a marker compound that is naturally occurring at 7% concentration in GMP (glycomacropeptide). GMP is used worldwide in foodstuffs for babies and infants and is obtained from the milk protein as safe food. While the purpose of our detailed evaluation was aimed to assess preliminary NOAEL values for and above 2,000 mg/kg/day, a clinical dose allowance for 23%-GNANA (as per characteristic of a functional health product, a highly refined test substance of 23% (v/v) sialic acid combined in GMP), at the same time we also wanted to assess the safety of GMP hydrolyzate lacking sialic acid but with identical properties as GMP. Animal safety evaluation was conducted using 23%-GNANA as the test substance, produced from hydrolyzed whey protein powder (product name: HELICOBACTROL-23; provided by Medinutrol Inc. [Korea]; composed of 23% sialic acid and GMP protein) after isolating the sialic acid using enzymes approved as food additives, with GMP as a raw material, and subsequently increasing the content of xx up to 23% through 80% (v/v) ethanol soaking and concentrating, in accordance with GLP Guideline. The animal safety evaluation mentioned above was made on the basis of toxicity in SPF Sprague-Dawley female and male rats dosed with 10 mL of the test substance diluted to 0, 1,250, 2,500, and 5,000 mg/kg directly into their stomachs for 90 d. This was determined in terms of the general symptoms and animal viability, weight and amount of feed intake, eye examination, uracrasia tests, hematological and blood biochemical disorder tests, blood coagulation test, abnormal intestine weight, abnormalities during postmortem and histopathological examinations. Statistical significance was set at P<0.05. Based on the toxicity determination, a certain minor effect associated with the test substance was observed in male rats with no major effects of the tested substance, in comparison with the control group dosed with sterilized water. Nevertheless, the NOAEL value, evaluated as per toxicity criteria, was verified as 5,000 mg/kg/day (P<0.05). Similarly, for female rats, a certain minor effect associated with the test substance was observed in 5,000 mg/kg/day dosed group, with no major effect, yet the NOAEL value (as assessed as per toxicity criteria) was determined to be 5,000 mg/kg/day (P<0.05), which was the same as for male rats. Accordingly, the NOAEL values of the test substances for all female and male rats were finally verified as 5,000 mg/kg/day (P<0.05). In conclusion, it was determined that the 23%-GNANA test substance exceeds 2,000 mg/kg/day, the clinical allowance characteristic for functional health food, and was finally evaluated to cause no safety concerns when used as a raw material in functional health food production, which was the ultimate goal of the present study.

To develop a functional fermentation food from Rubus coreanus Miquel (Bokbunja) and chlorella mixtures, optimal lactic acid fermentation conditions were established, and quality properties based on physicochemical evaluation such as chemical compositions, free sugars, organic acids, and antibacterial activities were investigated. Regarding optimal fermentation strain selection, formation of lactic acid was best in Lactobacillus plantarum among the experimental strains (10 kinds), and the optimal fermentation temperature was $37^{\circ}C$. In addition, overall acceptability in the sensory evaluation was highest in the 5% chlorella mixture sample. Therefore, quality properties of the prepared sample under the established optimal fermentation conditions were investigated. Moisture, total sugar (dry basis), crude fiber (dry basis), and pH of fermented Rubus coreanus Miquel juice (RCM) with 5% chlorella mixture (RCM-C5) were reduced by 4.90%, 14.15%, and 0.32%, respectively, as compared with non-fermented RCM. Meanwhile, crude protein, crude fat, and crude ash (dry basis) of RCM-C5 were elevated by 13.75%, 0.18%, and 0.73%, respectively, as compared with RCM. The yellowness (b value) of color values was greater in RCM-C5 compared to RCM. The free sugar and organic acid contents of RCM-C5 were elevated by 0.97% and 616.30 mg%, respectively, as compared with RCM. In addition, the gram positive bacterium Staphylococcus aureus was elevated by 5.83% while gram negative bacteria Escherichia coli and Salmonella Typhimurium were elevated by 2.94% and 4.67%, respectively, as compared with RCM. In conclusion, the quality properties of RCM and chlorella lactic acid fermentation mixtures were improved compared with the general RCM product. Consequently, it is possible to apply fermented RCM as a functional fermentation food.

The effects of ${\alpha}$-chymotrypsin and trypsin treatments on the functional properties (degree of hydrolysis, solubility, and emulsifying capacity) of the soy protein isolate prepared from Jinpum soybean milk(JS milk) which has been developed as low lipoxidase-active soybean variety in Korea and extracted from commercially defatted soybean meal milk(DSM milk). The mixing ratios of JS milk to DSM milk were adjusted to 10:0, 7:3, and 5:5, respectively. The general quality attributes(yield, pH, titrable acidity, moisture contents, crude protein contents, color, textural properties, and sensory characteristics) of soybean cheese which has been prepared with the resulting soy protein hydrolysates were evaluated. Jinpum SPI was better subjected to trypsin than ${\alpha}$-chymotrypsin hydrolyses as indicated by better solubility and emulsifying capacity of the hydrolysates. The degree of hydrolysis and solubility of Jinpum SPI were higher than the soybean isolates from DSM milk. The increased ratios of DSM milk in the mixture resulted in the reduced yields and crude protein content along with the lowered titratable acidity while the pH values and moisture contents showed the opposite trends. In color characteristics, the increased amount of DSM milk brought about the significantly lower Hunter color reflectance values of lightness of the cheese products, along with the higher redness and total color difference value(ΔE). However, the enzyme treatment alone was not enough to cause any color differences. The increased ratios of DSM milk also caused the significantly lowered textural parameters such as hardness, adhesiveness and cohesiveness of the soybean cheese. Between the enzyme treatments, the ${\alpha}$-chymotrypsin treated samples resulted in the higher hardness and cohesiveness values of the products than those from the trypsin-treated ones. In organoleptic properties of the product, the better mouthfeel and overall quality scores were obtained from the trypsin treatments as compared with those from the ${\alpha}$-chymotrypsin ones. The mixing ratios of 10:0 and 7:3 were more favored than that of 5:5 as far as mouth-feel, yellowness and overall quality of the products were concerned. On the overall, the mixing ratio of 7:3(JS milk: DSM milk) and the trypsin treatment of the mixture was recommended for better manufacturing of high-quality soybean cheese.
