Germanium is found in a range of minerals and ores and is present in foods including beans, tomato juice, oysters, tuna and garlic. Germanium is a non-metallic element, which can exist in valence states of 2 and 4. Clinical trials and use in private practices for more than a decade have demonstrated organic germanium's efficacy in treating serious disease including cancer, arthritis and senile osteoporosis. But it was rarely reported that inorganic germanium has biological properties. STB-BM contains mineral complex, rare earth elements and a little amount of Inorganic germanium. The experiment was carried out the anti-obesity effect. To investigate anti-obesity effect of STB-BM, we measured the effect of body weight, fat weight (subcutaneous fat, epididymal fat, visceral fat, kidney fat and total fat) and serum biochemical level in rats fed high fat diets. STB-BM 35 mg/kg suppressed the increasing ratio of body weight, epididymal fat weight, visceral fat weight, total fat weight, triglyceride and LDL-cholesterol (p<0.05).

In order to standardize the chinese cabbage kimchi, the preparation method, kinds of ingredients and levels of the ingredients were determined by the statistical survey of literatures obtained from cooking books, scientific papers and kimchi manufacturing factory. The standardized ingredient kinds and ratio of chinese cabbage kimchi were $13.0{\pm}7.0$ of radish, $2.0{\pm}0.5$ of green onion, $3.5{\pm}0.8\;or\;2.5{\m}0.3$ of red pepper powder, $1.4{\pm}0.4$ of garlic, $0.6{\pm}0.3$ of ginger, $2.2{\pm}1.6$ of anchovy juice, and $1.0{\pm}0.3$ of sugar in the proportion of 100 salted chinese cabbage, and the final salt concentration was adjusted to 2.7% using salt. Red pepper powder level was quite different from the literature sources, so sensory evaluation, chemical properties and antimutagenic effect and growth inhibitory effect on human cancer cells of the kimchi samples were studied to decide the proper ratio of the red pepper powder as an ingredient. Red pepper powder 3.5% (average level for kimchi manufacturing factory) added kimchi was better in quality than red pepper powder 2.5% (average level for cooking books and scientific papers) added kimchi in sensory evaluation and chemical properties. The juice of red pepper powder 3.5% added kimchi showed not only the stronger antimutagenicity against aflatoxin $B_1$ in Salmonella typhimurium TA100 but also the higher inhibitory effect on the growth of AGS human gastric adenocarcinoma cells in SRB assay than that of red pepper powder 2.5% added kimchi. In conclusion, the standardized ratio of the ingredients was 13.0 radish, 2.0 green onion, 3.5 red pepper powder, 1.4 garlic, 0.6 ginger, 2.2 anchovy juice, 1.0 sugar, and 2.7 final salt concentration in the proportion of 100 salted chinese cabbage.

The freeze drying of garlic juice was carried out in a vacuum freeze dryer, laboratory size, by backface heating. The factors which influence the rate of freeze drying, the pressure of drying chamber, the plate temperature, the concentration and the thickness of a sample, were discussed in this study. The drying rate was in proportion to the drying chamber pressure and when the pressure was at 1.5 torr, the foaming occured on the surface of materials, so this condition was not suitable for freeze drying. As the temperature of plate increased, drying rate increased, but when the temperature was $20^{\circ}C$, it was impossible to accomplish freeze drying because the foaming and the dispersion occured in a sample. The higher the concentration of a sample was, the lower drying rate was.

This study was the tenderizing activity of fig and kiwifruit using meat cooking. Furthermore, the effects of various seasonings and flavor spices were investigated. The proteolytic activity of kiwifruit was 36,513 uM/g fruit, whereas that of fig was 24,131 uM/g fruit. The best amount of fruit for meat cooking was 3~5% for kiwifruit and 5% for fig among three different dilutions, 3%, 5% & 10%. The effect of fruit ratio showed that treatment with 'kiwifruit only' produced the best organoleptic results, and there was no significant difference between the kiwifruit and fig ratios, 3:0, 2:1, 1:1. The best marinating time for meat tenderizing by fig and kiwifruit was 6hr at $4^{\circ}C$. The best marinating temperature for meat tenderizing by fig and kiwifruit was $25^{\circ}C$ rather than $4^{\circ}C$. Fruit sauce containing basic seasonings such as soy sauce, sugar, oligosaccharides, and sesame oil had a pH of 4.64 for fig and 4.23 for kiwifruit. The addition of soy sauce, oligosaccharides, and rice wine decreased the proteolytic activity of the fruits. Fruit sauce containing basic seasonings, garlic, ginger, onion and scallion had a pH of 4.71 for fig and 4.43 for kiwifruit. Finely chopped garlic, finely chopped scallion, and pureed onion, finely chopped ginger, and pear juice, all increased the proteolytic activity of the fruits. There the fruit sauce containing seasonings and flavory spices for meat cooking improved the tenderness and preference in terms of sensory evaluation without undesirable taste or increased fruits.

Hydrolyzed wheat gluten (HWG) and low glutamic acid (Glu) hydrolyzed wheat gluten with different quantities of NaCl were reacted with several precursors to develop natural meat flavor based on Maillard reaction products (MRP). The MRP based flavors were analyzed for their pH, browning index, DPPH radical scavenging effect, and sensory properties. Synthetic meat flavor from low Glu hydrolyzed wheat gluten with 7% NaCl and ribose, cysteine, methionine, thiamin, lecithin, and garlic powder reacted at $140^{\circ}C$ for 30 min and were most favorable for a roasted meat flavor. Based on an omission test, cysteine was selected as the most important precursor for producing meat flavor compared to methionine, thiamine, and lecithin. Natural precursors including mushroom powder and fat medium were applied to compensate for the synthetic precursors. The optimum formula for meat flavor was 5% ribose, 7.7% cysteine, 6.9% garlic juice powder, 2.1% Lentinusedodes powder digested with protease, and 1% lard. The sulfuric pungent, oily, and salty attributes of the formula decreased and a mild roasted meat flavor was expressed.

This study was attempted to investigate preference characteristics affecting for winter kimchi. Questionnaire were collected by 646 nationwide households during 3 months from December 2000 in Korea, and the data were analyzed by SPSS program. The results were as follows: (1) Seven minor ingredients including red pepper, garlic, ginger, green onion, paste (e.g. glutinous rice, rice and/or wheat flour paste), sugar and sesame were user in high preference for making winter kimchi in that odor. Seafoods (oyster, shrimp, Alaska pollack, yellow corvenia, squid and hairtail) were also utilized for making winter kimchi related with regional characteristics. (2) Two jeotkals, anchovy and anchovy juice, were popular ingredients for winter kimchi in southern region, while shrimp jeotkal in middle region including Seoul, Chungnam, Chungbuk, Daejeon, Daegu, Gwangju and Jeju northern sand lance juice jeotkal in western region, respectively. (3) Two kimchi, green onion and leek kimchi were high favored by people in spring regardless of region, and baby radish kimchi and cucumber kimchi in summer, pony-tail kimchi and gutjuli (fresh kimchi) in autumn, respectively. Except for winter cabbage kimchi, however, dongchimi and godulbaegi (Korean lettuce kimchi) were high favorite kimchi in winter. It was estimated that Koreans consume about 80 g of kimchi per person per day.

Weanling male rats of Wistar strain were fed relatively high-calories-diet containing 1% (K$_1$ group), 5% (K$_{5}$ group) and 10% Chinese cabbage kimchi juice (K$_{10}$ group) for 4 weeks to study their effects on body weight gain rate, serum lipids levels and other blood biochemical parameters. In this study it was found out that significant decrease in body weight gain rate, diet efficiency ratio, serum triglyceride level, serum total cholesterol level, blood glucose level and LDL-cholesterol level was observed in $K_{10}$ group as compared to control group fed only high-calories-diet. Significant increase in HDL-cholesterol level, GPT activity, GOT activity and creatinine level was found in $K_{10}$ group as compared to control group. But creatinine level, GPT and GOT activity of $K_{10}$ group were within the normal ranges. The results suggest that long term intake of traditional Chinese cabbage kimchi in large dose have the lowering effect on blood lipid and blood glucose level. There is no possibility of adverse actions on renal and hepatic functions by ordinary intake of Chinese cabbage kimchi in spite of being rich in salt and hot spices such as garlic, onion, ginger and red pepper.r.r.

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.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the perception of Korean kimchi in Singapore. A questionnaire was given to male 236(43.0%) and female 313(57.0%) college students residing in Singapore. The results are as follows: 86.9% of the participants answered that kimchi is Korean in origin, and 48.7% had eaten kimchi. Also 75.2% of the males and 65.2% of the females had purchased commercial kimchi at restaurants(p<0.05). Regarding the primary reason they purchased commercial kimchi, 62.1% responded 'its taste'(male 58.1%, female 65.0%), also 47.6% stated the package size was 50g(male 44.8%, female 49.7%). Among the kimchi they had experienced, 86.7% had eaten Baechu kimchi, 31.0% Mu kimchi and 30.9% Oi kimchi(males : 82.2% Baechu kimchi, 30.9% Oi kimchi, and 27.4% Mu kimchi, females: 90.0% Baechu kimchi, 33.6% Mu kimchi, and 26.2% Oi kimchi respectively). For their kimchi preference, 67.0% preferred Baechu kimchi, 9.4% Oi kimchi, and 7.1% Mu kimchi(males: 63.4% Baechu kimchi, 12.9% Oi kimchi and 5.4% Mu kimchi, females: 69.5% Baechu kimchi, 8.4% Oi kimchi and 6.9% Mu kimchi, respectively). After having eaten kimchi, 19.3% answer it tasted good, and the primary reason for liking kimchi, 'spicy and hot taste'(51.3%), The main reasons for not liking kimchi were the odor(garlic, ginger, anchovy juice, etc) and too spicy, respectively. Regarding improvements for its expanded consumption 32.0% answered 'not to improve', 18.0% answered 'don't make it too hot', 17.6% answered 'don't make it too salty', and 9.4% answered 'don't make it over-ripe'. For the overall perception of kimchi, the answer with the highest mean(3.95) was 'kimchi is a good side dish with cooked rice', which was significantly different than 'kimchi is delicious'(M=3.14, p<0.05).
