This study was conducted to investigate the effect of physical properties and antioxidant activities of the beer made by Lycii fructus for development of functional beer. Physical properties such as $Brix^{\circ}$, pH and hunter values were determined and compared with commercial beer. L(lightness) value was not significant difference among beer, although a(redness) and b(yellowness) values were higher in Lycii fructus beer than those of the commercial beer. Total phenolic acid contents were 0.790 mg/mL in Lycii fructus beer and 0.603 mg/mL in commercial beer. Electron donatin ability was 93% in Lycii fructus beer and 87% in commercial beer. Lycii fructus beer showed higher SOD-liked activities than in the commercial beer. The relative antioxidant effects of the Lycii fructus beer showed 19% inhibitory effect on the peroxidation of egg yolk lecithin.

Brewing with buckwheat as an ingredient has been proven to be successful in several previous studies. However, few studies have focused on the effects of buckwheat on the rutin content and antioxidant activity of beer. In order to develop a lager beer with high rutin content and desirable sensory characteristics, tartary buckwheat malt was used as a brewing adjunct. The results showed that the rutin-degrading enzyme was the key factor affecting the rutin content in the wort and beer. Compared to beer made using the common mashing method, the rutin content in the buckwheat beers produced using an improved mashing method was approximately 60 times higher. The total flavonoid contents in buckwheat beers also depended strongly on the mashing methods, ranging from 530.75 to 1,704.68 mg QE/l. The rutin-rich beers also showed better oxidative stability during forced-aging. Meanwhile, the buckwheat beers were found to be acceptable in terms of the main quality attributes, flavor, and taste.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of green tea extracts (GTE) on the fermentation properties of polyphenol-enriched beers. As such, the formation patterns of tannoid in beer with GTE were investigated at 3 different infusion times, while the ale and the lager beers fortified with GTE were analyze to ascertain effects on gravity, pH, yeast viability, total polyphenol, and tannoid during fermentation period. The results were as follows: 1) The formation of tannoid in beer with GTE in the tannometer; In reaction of GTE with polyvinylpyrrolidon (PVP), control lager beer peaked in the formation of tannoid at $70\;{\sim}\;80\;mg$ of PVP, the 1st extract exceeded the detection limit, the 2nd extract at $170\;{\sim}\;180\;mg$, while the third extract at $150\;{\sim}\;160\;mg$ of PVP. The GTE were slow in reacting with PVP, and their formation patterns were different from those of polyphenols from barley and hop. 2) Ale fermentation; The final alcohol content was 9.25% (ABV). The addition of GTE increased the yeast viability after 2 days and finally reached 52.3% from 30.9%. Total polyphenol in GTE beer increased by 1.5 times (p < .05). However, its tannoid contents increased by 6.4 times. 3) Lager fermentation; The final alcohol content was 5.93% (ABV). The effect of GTE on lager beer was minimal for all variables. However, total polyphenol of GTE beer increased by 1.4 times (p < .05). Its tannoid increased by 3.3 times (p < .05).

Sweet potato-malt worts were prepared by using sweet potato paste of Shinyulmi and Shinjami as the main adjunct, enzymes, malt, hop, and water. We brewed low-malt beers of the lager- or ale-type by using these worts and inoculating bottom and top fermenting yeast, respectively. Moreover, the componential and functional characteristics of the resulting beers were evaluated. During saccharification of sweet potato, the addition of an enzyme agent containing ${\alpha}-amylase$ caused an improvement in filterability and an increase of total sugar. The sugar content of sweet potato-malt wort which was prepared by the addition of 0.1% enzyme agent containing ${\alpha}-amylase$ and a three-step infusion procedure was $13.5^{\circ}Brix$ adequate for beer brewing. The polyphenol and anthocyanin contents of Shinjami beer were increased with increasing content of the paste, and also increased DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities. But in Shinyulmi beer it were decreased. A strong correlation was obserbed between antioxidave activities and polyphenol and anthocyanin contents of sweet potato beers. In all lager- and ale-type low-malt beers using 41.6% of Shinjami pastes, sensory attributes very similar to those of 100% malt beer were obtained and they were very good as they had unique red color.

This study was conducted to find out the effect of yeast by-products discarded after beer production as feed additives for carp (Cyprinus carpio). After producing feed by adding high-temperature dried beer yeast by-products (HD), freeze-dried beer yeast by-products (FD), and freeze-dried fermented beer yeast by-products (FF) after lactobacilli fermentation, innate immunity indicators, survival rates, and challenge experiments were evaluated. Both ACH50 and lysozyme activity were significantly increased (p<0.05) in the experimental group of FF 0.2% and 0.5% compared to the control group from day 7 to day 21. In addition, phagocyte activity was significantly increased (p<0.05) in the group of FF 0.5% compared to the control group at all time points. Both IL-1β and TNF-α expression levels increased significantly in the FD and FF groups on day 21 compared to the control group (p<0.05). In addition, the FF 0.5% group showed significantly higher expression levels (p<0.05) at all time points. Similarly, IL-10 expression increased significantly (p<0.05) in FF 0.2% and 0.5% groups at all time points. SOD gene expression was significantly increased in FD 0.5% and all FF groups on day 14 and 21 (p<0.05). The results of a 10-day challenge experiment using Edwardsiella piscicida (E. piscicida) showed a higher relative survival rate than the control group at all concentrations that fed FD and FF. In summary, it is estimated that 0.5% FF can effectively improve the innate immunity, growth rate, and antibacterial properties of carp rather than using discarded beer yeast supernatant alone as a functional feed additive.

This study was carried out to find out the time-dependent change of central functions in the depopulated rural areas. Three county areas were selected for the case study ; Haenam(as a remote flat area), Goksung(as an intermediate mountainous area), and Hwasun(as a peri-urban area). For each district area administered by each county, service facilities stock was surveyed at both the present('02) and the past('89 or '94)time, and its functional index checked. From the study results, table-tennis rooms, oil shops and inns were ascertained to be disappeared now in the absolute or real terms, while beer halls, restaurants and bakeries to be sharply increased. Generally, in spite of the substantial depopulation in the past decade, service facilities stock has been increased in and concentrated to the highest order center of rural area (county office seated district). However, where this center leans to the outer side of its county area and to the opposite direction against the regional center, the dependent level of service function on the highest center have decreased.

This study was carried out to investigate the suitability of colored barley in malting and brewing properties and the possibility of utilizing pigments in colored barley as functional components in malting and brewing products. Purple and blue barley grains contained anthocyanins. However, about 80% and 20% of anthocyanins in the purple and blue barley grains, respectively, were lost during the steeping process. In malts, only 0.4~4.2% and 58.3% of anthocyanin in purple and blue barley grains, respectively, were remained. Wort color value was not affected by lemma color of black barley. In wort made from black barley, the color value was higher as its soluble nitrogen content higher. Anthocyanins were not found in wort and beer brewed from malts of purple and blue barley. The color value (EBC unit) was higher in wort and beer made from malts of purple and blue barley than those made from malt of the control variety, Hopum.

This study is performed to examine the functional and quality characteristics of glutinous barley Jeung-pyun added with beet powder. Jeung-pyun is being prepared with concentration of 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8% (w/w) of the beet according to nonglutinous rice powder weight. The pH level of Jeung-pyun batters decrease along with fermentation time. However, the pH level of Jeung-pyun is higher than that of the Jeung-pyun batter. For hunter's color value of glutinous barley Jeung-pyun added with beet powder, the L (lightness) values decrease with increasing concentrations of beet powder, whereas a (redness) values increase (p<0.001). In the texture analysis, the hardness, chewiness and gumminess are significantly increased with the amount of glutinous barley Jeung-pyun with added beet powder. According to sensory evaluations, the appearance, color, flavor, taste, texture and overall quality are considered very good in the 4% of added beer powder in glutinous barley Jeung-pyun (p<0.001). The antioxidant activities of beet powder by DPPH free radical scavenging activity, ferric reducing antioxidant power and total phenolic contents are being recorded at $259.52{\mu}{\ell}/mg$, $0.44{\pm}0.01$, $15.29{\pm}0.04mg$ GAE/g respectively. The antioxidant activities of glutinous barley Jeung-pyun added with beet powder increase with increasing concentrations of beet powder. These results suggest that beet powder are useful as functional food resources within antioxidant activities.

Erwinia amylovora causes a devastating disease called fire blight in rosaceous trees and shrubs such as apple, pear, and raspberry. To successfully infect its hosts, the pathogen requires a set of clustered genes termed hrp. Studies on the hrp system of E. amylovora indicated that it consists of three functional classes of genes. Regulation genes including hrpS, hrpS, hrpXY, and hrpL produce proteins that control the expression of other genes in the cluster. Secretion genes, many of which named hrc, encode proteins that may form a transmembrane complex, which is devoted to type III protein secretion. Finally, several genes encode the proteins that are delivered by the protein secretion apparatus. They include harpins, DspE, and other potential effector proteins that may contribute to proliferation of E. amylovora inside the hosts. Harpins are glycine-rich heat-stable elicitors of the hypersensitive response, and induce systemic acquired resistance. The pathogenicity protein DseE is homologous and functionally similar to an avirulence protein of Pseudomonas syringae. The region encompassing the hrpldsp gene cluster of E. amylovora shows features characteristic of a genomic island : a cryptic recombinase/integrase gene and a tRNA gene are present at one end and genes corresponding to those of the Escherichia coli K-12 chromosome are found beyond the region. This island, designated the Hrp pathogenicity island, is more than 60 kilobases in size and carries as many as 60 genes.

Two byproducts, brewer's spent grain (BSG; germinated rice and malt) and brewer's spent material (BSM; Achyranthes japonica Nakai), were collected during the manufacture of pilsner beer using A. japonica Nakai and germinated rice. Water extracts of BSG and BSM were prepared at different temperatures ($25^{\circ}C$, $60^{\circ}C$, and $100^{\circ}C$) for 5 h, and their nutritional and functional properties were investigated. ${\gamma}-Aminobutyric$ acid (GABA), saponin, and niacin contents were higher in extracts prepared at $60^{\circ}C$ for more than 3 h than the other extracts, whereas total polyphenol content, DPPH radical scavenging activity, and reducing power were higher in samples extracted at $100^{\circ}C$ for 1 h compared to the other ones. Overall, water extraction at $60^{\circ}C$ for 3 h was desirable to effectively collect both nutritional and functional components from BSG and BSM. Under these conditions, BSM extracts showed 4~18 times high niacin and folate contents, 1.4 times high total phenolic content, and 11~60 times high antioxidant activities compared to BSG extracts. This study shows that pilsner beer byproducts would be good sources of health beneficial components, especially GABA, saponin, water soluble vitamins, and polyphenolics.
