This study was conducted to investigate the effect of ingestion of sesame (Sesamum indicum) gruel as a nourishing meal upon the plasma gastrin concentration in normal Korean. Sixteen normal persons with no history of gastrointestinal diseases, including male and female were studied. After an overnight(about 15 hrs) fast, eight persons(mean age: 26.6, range: $20{\sim}40$ years) of them ingested a 350 ml sesame gruel corresponding to 12 g protein, 13 g fat and 99 g carbohydrate, and the remaining 8 subjects(mean age: 21.3, range: $20{\sim}24$ years) ingested a 350 ml glutinous rice gruel(control meal) corresponding to 8 g protein, 1 g fat and 115 g carbohydrate. The venous blood samples were drawn before and after the ingestion of the test meal for the measurement of gastrin by means of radioimmunoassay. 1) Plasma gastrin concentration in response to the ingestion of sesame gruel or glutinous rice gruel increased significantly compared with the concentration in fasting state. 2) Mean increment or percent increment in postprandial plasma gastrin concentration after the ingestion of sesame gruel was not significantly different from that after the control meal, i.e. the glutinous rice gruel. It is inferred from the above results that the ingestion of sesame contained in sesame gruel may have no significant influence on gastrin release in normal human subjects.

stract : Fourteen varieties of glutinous rices were examined on amylopectin fine structure and physicochemical properties of starch granules. The amylopectin chain length distribution and short chain/long chain ratio were investigated by enzymatic treatments followed by high-performance size-exclusion chromatographic separation. Chain length distribution profiles of the isoamylase-debranched amylopectins showed distinct patterns according to varieties. Beongok showed the highest short chain/long chain ratio, while TP2579A1 showed the lowest one. Sharebyeo-152-1-B showed the highest hydrolysis rate to 15% $H_2SO_4$, while Sandong 47 showed the lowest one. Fourteen varieties of rice starch granules showed A-type pattern on X-ray diffractograms. Non-gelitinized starch granules from Keochang 1 and Beongok had almost 100% hydrolysed by glucoamylase for 3 hrs at $370^{\circ}C$.

${\alpha}-amylase\;and\;{\beta}-amylase$ were extracted from barley and wheat malt, respectively. Their kinetic parameters on gultinous and nonglutinous rice starch were examined. During the germination of barley and wheat, the increaments of ATP levels were significant after 2-day germination and the levels were reduced after 5 days. The dry weights were decreased after 3 days. The activities of amylases were the highest for 6 days in the barley and wheat malt. As for ${\alpha}-amylase$, that the substrate affinity of barley malt on nonglutionous rice starch was greater than other cases. The $V_{max}$ values of ${\alpha}-amylase$ from wheat malt on either type of rice starch showed high, and from barley malt on nonglutinous rice starch were high. The ${\beta}-amylse$ from barley malt showed high substrate affinity on the glutinous rice starch, and $V_{max}$ value of the enzyme from wheat malt on glutinous rice starch was higher than other. The substrate efficiency ($V_{max}/K_{m}$) of ${\beta}-amylase$ on the non glutinous rice strach was better than other cases.

This study describes the production of functional Ssukgaen Dduk though the addition of yam and mugwort to Goami 2, a healthy diet and diabetes. In this study, the rice is soaked for many hours and the particle size distribution of the rice was determined as a function of the water-soaking time. The produce Ssukgaen Dduk was repeated after the addition of varying concentration of yam. Non-glutinous rice was soaked for 4, 8, 12 hours and the Goami 2 rice was soaked for 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 hours and ground to a powder and passed through a 18~30 mesh sieve to determine the particle size distribution of the rice as a function of water-soaking time. Using this approach, optimal soaking time for Dduk was found to be 4 hours for non-glutinous rice(pass rate of 30 mesh: 58.29%) and 12 hours for Goami 2(pass rate of 30 mesh: 87.88%). When Ssukgaen Dduk made with Goami 2 rice powder only and those made with varying amounts of yam(10%, 20%, 30%, and 40%) were subjected to the sensory test, the control group(non-glutinous rice Ssukgaen Dduk) had the highest preference in general(3.73). Out of Ssukgaen Dduk containing yam, the S4 group, which contained 30% yam, had the highest preference(2.87) In addition the S4 group also had the highest extent of soft, and delicacy of texture general preference of S5, 40% the lowest(2.37), S1 only Goami 2 the hardness(112.59), as 91.46 lower (83.85) yam increased, the less hard the texture Ssukgaen Dduk. In conclusion Ssukgaen Dduk though the addition of mugwort and yam to the Goami 2 rice, it would be better to add 30% yam to 70% Goami 2 rice powder mixed with mugwort.

This study examined the optimal mixture ratio of rice gruel supplemented with puffed rice by mixture design. The quality characteristics of rice gruel samples were examined according to mixture ratios at eleven experimental points. The high soluble solid content and viscosity of gruel samples were significantly dependent on rice (short grain) content instead of glutinous rice. The viscosity ranged from $2,891{\sim}9,153\;cP{\cdot}s$ and soluble solid content ranged from $8.23{\sim}10.13^{\circ}Brix$ at the eleven experimental points. The mixture with the highest solid content and viscosity, 12% rice gruel sample was $10.10{\sim}10.13^{\circ}Brix$ and $9,150{\sim}9,153\;cP{\cdot}s$. The L color of sample decreased with decreasing rice content, while "a" (redness) and "b" (yellowness) values slightly increased. In the sensory evaluation, samples with higher amount of puffed rice and glutinous rice scored higher for brown color, flavor and sweetness than high-content rice samples. The response surface and trace plot results showed that increasing of puffed rice increased the brown color, sweet taste and sticky aftertaste. From the results of the F-test, viscosity, "a" (redness) and "b" (yellowness) values fit a quadratic model with significant probabilities within 0.05%. The optimum predicted formulations of rice gruel containing puffed rice were 1.69% of puffed rice, 0.47% of glutinous rice and 9.84% of rice, respectively.

Korean traditional rice wines yakju and takju are generally brewed with nuruk as the source of the saccharogenic enzymes by natural fermentation. To improve the quality of Korean rice wine, the microorganisms in the nuruk need to be studied. The objective of this research was to improve the quality of Korean wine with the wild-type yeast strains isolated from the fermentation starter, nuruk. Only strain YA-6 showed high activity in 20% ethanol. Precipitation of Y89-5-3 was similar to that of very flocculent yeast (>80%) at 75.95%. Using 18S rRNA sequencing, all 10 strains were identified as Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Volatile compounds present in yakju were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass selective detector. The principal component analysis (PCA) of the volatile compounds grouped long-chain esters on the right side of the first principal component, PC1; these compounds were found in yakju that was made with strains YA-6, Y89-5-3, Y89-5-2, Y90-9, and Y89-1-1. On the other side of PC1 were short-chain esters; these compounds were found in wines that were brewed with strains Y183-2, Y268-3, Y54-3, Y98-4, and Y88-4. Overall, the results indicated that using different wild-type yeast strains in the fermentation process significantly affects the chemical characteristics of the glutinous rice wine.

As people know how to brew a wine from fruits and cereals, they continued to develope various wines good to their taste. Korean wines are also ones made from cereals and they have long been eager to improve the delicate taste. They used to drink Takju, raw rice wine, made from nonglutinous rice and Nuruk, a kind of yeast starter. During Koryo Dynasty, Soju a liquor was imported from Won(the Chinese dynasty). Nowadays this traditional folk wine, which had been developed variously and drunk all over the country, is decreasing year after year. The purpose of this study was to review on the wines ; its kinds, raw materials, brewing method, manufacturing utensils, measuring units and devices and the terms for wine making based on 20 documents published in 1600, in the middle of Yi dynesty. The results of review were as follows. 1. There were 121 kinds of wines at that time in Korea. 2. Among the raw materials for wines, major materials were glutinous rice, nonglutinous rice, wheat flour, wheat, mung bean, and black soybean. And minor materials were pepper corn, Lycium chinenisis, cinnamon, pine needles, pine nuts, jujube, mugwort leaves, lotus leaves, pine corn, pine bud, chrysanthemum, pine flowers, honey, Acanthopanox seoultenses, bamboo-root, marrowbone of blak cow, sweet flag, Ciprus noblis, Saurea lappa, honey suckle, Tricho santhes, azalea, the leaves of the paper mulberry, and bark of chungum tree. 3. There were several kinds of wines such as a wine without using Nuruk, a wine made from glutinous rice, nonglutinous rice, or glutinous and nonglutinous rice with flour. 4. There were several brewing methods for wines such as a wine boiled with ring rice cake, a wine brewed with loaves of rice cake, a wine brewed with hard boiled rice, a wine brewed with rice gruel, and a wine brewed with powdered rice gruel. 5. There were 23 kinds of utensils including measuring devices for weight and volume.

To know proper drying condition for making a safe Sunsik, uncooked food, microbial and physicochemical characteristics of cereal dried by hot-air drying was investigated. As moisture content of 3 Sunsik samples was reduced to about 8%, protein, carbohydrate, fat and ash content of those was increased. But approximate composition of black bean, black rice and glutinous millete and black bean showed little changes during hot-air drying (30, 40, $50^{\circ}C$). Lightness (L value), redness (a value) and yellowness (b value) was increased after hot-air drying. In case of black rice and glutinous millet, b value and L value wasn't changed individually. When we measured a texture for 3 kinds of raw cereal for, hardness of dried cereals was lower than raw cereals. Hardness of dried cereals was increasd as drying temperature was increased. As results of mocrobiologicl experiment for 3 kinds of sunsik on hot-air drying conditions, total cell count was reduced 2 log - 3 log and other pathogenic microorganism wasn't detected except B. cereus.

The purpose of this study is to determine the optimal mix ratio of Maneul-Sulgi and thereby, review its availability as health cake. For this purpose, the ratios of garlic juice and powder were varied with sugar added. As a result of quantitative descriptive analysis, it was found that the more the garlic juice and powder were added to non-glutinous rice, the Garlic taste was stronger. On the other hand, the less garlic powder was added, the cake would taste softer, and the less garlic juice was added, the cake was more chewy and moist. The feeling after swallowing was best when the ratio of garlic juice was $7\%$. As a consequence of surveying the tastes of Maneul-Sulgi, it was found that the less garlic powder was added to non-glutinous rice, the cake was more preferred. It was perceived that the ratio of garlic juice should be $7\%$ for flavor and desirable taste. As a result of testing the mechanic characteristics, it was found that the less garlic juice was used, the cake was more hard, elastic, cohesive, viscose and chewy. The more garlic powder was used, the Adhesiveness was higher. The Overall acceptability of sensory examination for Garlic taste had positive correlation Hardness of sensory examination and mechanical examination for adhesiveness.
