Three hull-less barleys and three covered barleys grown in Korea were pearled to give 0% and 60% yield, respectively. Whole barleys and pearled barleys were analyzed for total, insoluble, soluble dietary fiber and ${\beta}-glucan$ contents. Whole hull-less barleys contained average 17.1% total dietary fiber, and whole covered barleys contained average 23.9% total dietary fiber. Pearled hull-less barleys contained 9,2% total dietary fiber and 4.8% solule dietary fiber. Pearled covered barleys contained 11.9% total dietary fiber and 6.0% soluble dietary fiber. Whole barleys contained $3.2{\sim}3.9%$ (${\beta}-glucan$, and pearled barleys contained $3.5{\sim}5.4%$ (${\beta}-glucan$. Soluble dietary fiber and (${\beta}-glucan$ contents of barley were not affected by cooking, while insoluble dietary fiber content was increased by cooking.

Dietary fiber imparts both mutritional and functional properties to foods. This review deals with (1) the classification of dietary fiber, (2) the plant cell wall models, (3) the relations between structure and physicochemical and functional properties of dietary fiber and (4) the applications of dietary fiber in foods. Dietary fiber can be classified in terms of source, plant function, solubility, charge and topology. Plant cell wall models are presented to provide information on the interconnections of dietary fiber components which determines the content of soluble and insoluble dietary fiber content. In reality, physicochemical and functional properties of dietary fiber originate factors such as chemical constituents , charge, branching degree, conformation and etc. Dietary fibers possess a variety of functional properties in food systems, which thus make them useful in food application. In particular, rheology and gelation of water-soluble gums or hydrocolloids are discussed for their effects on food quality. A guideline s also listed for the gum selection to meet the best product requirements.

Contents of insoluble(IDF), soluble dietary fiber (SDF), and total dietary fiber(TDF) of 30 foods which are consumed commonly by 80 Koeran male college students were determined by Prosky and colleagues' enzymatic-gravimentric method. Foods with highest intake frequency were rice, Kimch'i, and red pepper powder. TDF, IDF, and SDF contents of rice were 0.96, 0.59 and 0.37g/100g wet wt., respectively and tose of Kimch'i were 3.07, 2.19 and 0.88g/100g wet wt., respectively. Red pepper powder contained high amount of TDF(39.37) and IDF (33.13g/100g wet wt.). The TDF content of the 30 foods ranged from 0.70 to 39.37g/100g wet wt. Red pepper (39.37), dried laver(31.36), and dried sea mustard (37.77g/100g wet wt.) contained high amounts of TDF. The IDF content of the 30 foods ranged from 0.13 to 33.13g/100g wet wt. Red pepper powder (33.13), dried laver(15.55) and sesame(15.43g/100g wet wt.) contained high amounts of IDF. SDF of the 30 foods ranged from 0.01 to 25.66g/100g wet wt. Dried sea mustard(25.66), dried laver(15.81), coffee powder (13.17), and garlic(8.72g/100g wet wt.) were good sources of SDF. % ratio of SDF to TDF of the 30 foods was lower than 50% except soybean curd(94.27%), coffee powder (88.93%), garlic(86.17%), dried sea mustard(67.94%), and dried laver(50.41%). It is recommended to increase intake of seaweeds in order to supply TDF adn SDF properly.

The antimutagenic effects of insoluble dietary fibers(IDF) extracted from some green-yellow vegetables(kale, carrot, spinach, broccoli and soybean sprout) and soybean by binding the carcinogens of MeIQ (2-amino-3,4- dimethyl-imidazo(4,5-f) quinoline) and Trp-P-2(3-amino-1-methyl-5H-pyrido[4,3-b] indole) in Salmonella tylhimirium TA100 and TA98 were studied. All of the insoluble dietary fiber samples which binded MeIQ exhibited high antimutagenic effects by removing the mutagen. Among the samples, IDFs from kale and soybean showed strong binding capacity fo the carcinogen and revealed about 90% of the antimutagenic activity. the IDF samples showed somewhat lower binding capacity to the Trp-p-2. The lignin which extracted from kale, soybean and carrot, and the cellulose strongly removed the mutagenicity of MeIQ by the binding. Among the samples, the level of lignin in kale revealed the highest(about 10%), and it seemed that the higher content of lignin in kale is one of the reasons to increase its antimutagenic effect.

Effects of added green tea powder and Angelica keiskei powder on the quality characteristics of Yukwa were examined for the purpose of improving functioanality and variety of Yukwa, and usage of green tea Powder and Angelica keiskei. Dietary fiber contents of green tea powder were 5.2% soluble dietary fiber, 22% insoluble dietary fiber, while Angelica keiskei contained 28.9% soluble dietary fiber, 29.6% insoluble dietary fiber. Expansion rate of yukwa was 3,675% for control and the rates were slightly decreased as the addition level increased. Although Yukwas added 6% green tea and angelica keiskei powder were harder than the others when determined by rheometer, sensory evaluation results showed that hardness and mouthfeel were soft without any significant difference among the control and experimental samples. And internal structure of 4 and 6% green tea powder and those added angelica keiskei at three levels were evaluated by sensory panel as moderately compact. Overall acceptability of yukwa added 2% green tea Powder was the best of all while yukwas added angelica keiskei at three levels were evaluated as good. The results of peroxide value and TBA value showed that green tea powder had stronger antioxidative property than angelica keiskei. In conclusion addition of green tea powder by 2% level and angelica keiskei powder up to 4% would give us beneficial effects in the aspects of functionality and storage life of yukwa without any detrimental effects on the quality characteristics of it.

This study was conducted to determine changes in th contents and composition of dietary fiber during the growth of soybean sprout. Soybean was soaked in water at $25^{\circ}C$ for 2hrs and cultivated at 2$0^{\circ}C$ for 7 days under dark condition. The soybean sprouts were divided into cotyledon and axis and sampled every 24hrs. The analysis methodlogies used were Van Soest's NDF, AOAC's ADF and lignin and Prosky's IDF, SDF, TDF. The weight of 100 sprouts increased gradually from 20.26g to 90.12g during the growth periods. The weight increased to 344.9% of the original weight. The germination rate was 100% after soaking at $25^{\circ}C$ for 2hrs. Root length increased gradualy from 0.6cm at 1st day to 17.2cm at 7th day. The crude ash and crude fat contents showed no significant change in the cotyledon and axis. The crude protein contents increased in the cotyledon and axis, whereas the total carbohydrate content didn't have general tendency. The insoluble dietary fiber(IDF), soluble dietary fiber(SDF) and total dietary fiber(TDF) contents of cotyledon were no significantly different from 20.01%, 1.45%, 21.46% at 1st day to 22.75%, 2.07%, 24.82% at 7th day on dry basis. In axis those contents increased from 23.19%, 1.97%, 25.16% at 1st day to 32.78%, 3.02%, 35.80% at 7th day, respectively. The neutral detergent fiber(NDF) contents of cotyledon and axis increased from 4.35% to 6.39% and from 6.44% to 26.60% respectively on dry basis. The acid detergent fiber (ADF) contents of cotyledon and axis increased from 2.84% to 4.91% and from 2.5% to 4.7%, but there were no significantly different in the hemicellulose and lignin contents on dry basis. The hemicellulose and lignin contents of axis increased with culture periods from 1.70% to 4.41% and from 0.20% to 2.11%, respectively. The cellulose contents increased from 4.54% to 20.35% on dry basis.

Husked barley contained 17.2% dietary fiber and naked barley contained 14.9% dietary fiber. The barley was ground in a Udy cyclotec mill having a 0.5 mm screen and sieved with a 400-mesh screen (38 m openings). Coarse material of naked barley retained by the screen, with a weight yield of 54.1%, contained 7.0% soluble dietary fiber, 13.9% insoluble dietary filer and 20.9% total dietray fiber. As the naked barley flour level increased in bread baking, the water absorption, mixing time, and loaf weight increased, but the loaf volume decreased. Barley flour was added to wheat flour at a replacement level of 10% without a large adverse effect on bread quality, and the dietary fiber content of bread was increased from 3.0% to 5.0%. The soluble dietary fiber content was not changed, but the insoluble dietary fiber content was increased during the baking process.

This study investigated the lipid profiles for the possible improving activity of insoluble dietary fiber extracted from cabbage waste discarded during kimchi manufacture and market distribution. Enzyme-treated Insoluble Dietary Fiber (EIDF) is the remnants of crude dietary fiber (CDF) treated by ${\alpha}$-amylase, protease, and amyloglucosidase after removal of soluble materials from cabbage waste. The insoluble dietary fiber of CDF and EIDF in cabbage waste was $65.33{\pm}0.33%$ and $73.57{\pm}0.09%$, respectively. To examine the effects of EIDF on plasma cholesterol concentration, two group of rats were fed either a high fat diet (HFD) or a HFD containing 0.1~1.0% EIDF for 4 weeks. The body weight of all groups was not significantly different (p<0.05) but the body weight of EIDF+HFD groups was less than that of the HFD group (p<0.1). Compared with the HFD group, EIDF also lowered serum levels of total triglycerides to 11.2~23.3% and cholesterol to 26.8~28.5%. In EIDF+HFD groups, the HDL-cholesterol level increased by 7.2~26.1%, while LDL-cholesterol especially decreased by 51.0~61.4% and VLDL-cholesterol by 16.9~26.4%. The atherogenic index of EIDF+HFD groups was also reduced twice that of the HFD group. From these results, EIDF from cabbage waste could be a potential effective food ingredient for improving lipid profiles.

Porphyra yezoensis is potentially an excellent source of dietary fiber, amino acids, and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) because this red seaweed is available in large quantities and is rich in polysaccharides, proteins, and n-3 fatty acids. This study determined the insoluble dietary fiber (IDF), soluble dietary fiber (SDF), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), acid detergent fiber (ADF), amino acid, and fatty acid contents of P. yezoensis harvested monthly from November 2011 to March 2012. The total dietary fiber (TDF) and IDF contents ranged from 27.2-34.9% and 18.5-26.9%, respectively, and were greater in March than November. The SDF content ranged from 4.9-8.4% and did not differ significantly during growth. Galactose and 3,6-anhydro galactose were the major sugars in IDF and SDF. The higher levels of galactose and 3,6-anhydro galactose in IDF might be due to associated porphyran-type polysaccharides. Mannose and xylose were also major sugars in IDF. The total amino acid contents decreased gradually from November to March. The total amino acid composition of Porphyra was dominated by alanine, glutamic acid, arginine, and aspartic acid. No significant changes in the fatty acid profile were observed throughout the study period. The dominant fatty acid during all seasons was EPA, which comprised as much as 50% of the total fatty acid content.
