Total spleen lymphocytes, lymphocyte proliferation, tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}$ (TNF-${\alpha}$), and interleukin-10 (IL-10) in spleen lymphocyte culture were studied in malnourished Wistar rats fed with goat milk yoghurt. Malnourished rats were created by using standard feed restriction as much as 50% of normal rats for 21 d. Goat milk yoghurt containing three types of microorganism e.g., Lactobacillus acidophilus, Sterptococcus thermophilus and Bifidobacterium longum derived from Lacto-B culture in powder form. After 21 d, the rats continued to receive restricted feeding and supplemented with goat milk yoghurt for 7 d. Total splenocytes were counted by hemocytometer. Splenocytes proliferation was expressed as stimulation index, whereas the TNF-${\alpha}$ and IL-10 of spleen lymphocyte culture were measured by ELISA technique. The total number of splenocytes and stimulation index of splenocytes in moderate malnourished and normal rats supplemented with goat milk yoghurt was not significantly different. The level of TNF-${\alpha}$ in the rat supplemented with goat milk yoghurt was lower (p<0.05) than the control group, whereas the level of IL-10 in the rat supplemented with goat milk yoghurt was higher (p<0.05) than the control group. In conclusion, goat milk yoghurt supplementation in malnourished rats could decrease TNF-${\alpha}$ as a representation of the pro-inflammatory cytokine, while it increases IL-10 as a representation of the anti-inflammatory cytokine.

Objectives : This study was performed to provide the basic data for oral health of infants, through the comparison of Streptococcus mutans activities(the representative bacteria of initial dental caries), in main nutritional foods for infants: breast milk, milk powder, and soya milk. Methods : The study targeted 30 infants and the saliva was sampled after the oral examination. The pH of sampled saliva was measured; and the sample of 'the saliva', 'the saliva and breast milk', and 'the saliva and formula milk' by researcher were produced; and the measurement was repeated 7 times. Results : As a result of examining the change of colony number of Streptococcus mutans by hour, the bacterial activity took in the source of nutrition took place in the first place; and in the group with dental caries, breast-feeding at night occurreds most frequently. Due to the combined activities, such as the increase in the contact time, the existence rate of dental caries appeared high. However, as the improvement of breast-feeding is closely related to the nutrition supply to babies, rather than the improvement of breast-feeding, the 12 hours after the culture in which Streptococcus mutans activities started was considered. Conclusions : In case of breast-feeding at night, it is necessary to remove the dental plaque in the mouth, before 12 hours has passed. Especially, using toothbrush and toothpaste to decrease the occurrence of dental caries, after the eruption of teeth, is recommended for oral administration.

This study aimed to determine the effect of extraction temperature and time on the antioxidant activity of hot water extract from Panax ginseng sprout powder and to evaluate the suitability of this extract for use in dairy products. Water-soluble fractions of commercial Panax ginseng sprout powder were obtained by hot water extraction at 25, 60, or 80℃ for 0.5, 2, 12, or 24 h. The antioxidant activity of each extract was evaluated by measuring its free radical scavenging activity against 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS). DPPH and ABTS free radical scavenging activity increased with extraction temperature from 25 to 80℃. At 80℃, increasing the extraction time from 0.5 to 2 h led to increases in DPPH and ABTS free radical scavenging activity. Thus, the extract obtained under 2 h at 80℃ was selected for addition to milk and yogurt. After 16 days of storage, there were no significant changes in the pH of the milk or the antioxidant activity of the extract. With regard to yogurt fermentation, adding the extract did not affect the pH or the number of viable lactic acid bacteria. In conclusion, hot water extract from Panax ginseng sprout powder can be added to dairy products to enhance antioxidant activity.

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) fermented food was prepared from milk or egg white powder (EWP) and added with five kinds of freeze drying protectant (FDP). Effects of FDP on growth and acid production of LAB were investigated. Effects of FDP on organoleptic properties of LAB fermented food were also studied. (1) Some of FDPs showed protective effect against damage to Lactobacillus acidophilus in LAB fermented food during freeze drying, while FDP did not show any protective effect against damage to L. acidophilus during freezing. This protective effect differed with substrate and concentration of FDP (2) Optimum concentration of Tween 80 and ascorbate added to milk sample was 0.2 % (W/V) and 1 %(W/V), respectively. Optimum concentration of raffinose and ascorbate added to EWP sample was 3 %(W/V) and 1 %(W/V), respectively (3) Among FDPs added to L. casei fermented food, raffinose and ascorbate added to EWP sample showed FDP effect. Among FDPs added to L. delbrueckii fermented food, raffinose added to EWP sample showed FDP effect. (4) Samples added with MSG showed MSG taste. Milk sample added with ascorbate showed slightly more acid taste than reference sample, while taste of EWP sample added with ascobate did not differ with reference sample. Tween 80 added to milk sample or EWP sample improved texture of LAB fermented food.

Yogurt was prepared with different substitution ratio [10, 20, 30, and 50% (w/w)] of skim milk with enzymatically saccharified Korean rice wine lees powder (eKRWLP) and fermented with commercially available mixed lactic acid bacteria (Bifidobacterium longum, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Streptococcus thermophilus) at $40^{\circ}C$ for 18 h. Fermentation characteristics were evaluated in terms of acid production (pH and titratable acidity) and viable cell counts of lactic acid bacteria. The pH of yogurts decreased with increasing eKRWLP substitution ratio of skim milk. After 12 h fermentation, titratable acidities of eKRWLP substitution and control (yogurt made without eKRWLP) were 0.84~1.04% and 0.93%, respectively. The titratable acidities of yogurts prepared with 10 and 20% substitution ratio increased than that of the control yogurt, but titratable acidities of yogurts of 30 and 50% substitution ratio decreased. After 9 h fermentation, the number of viable lactic acid bacterial cell were increased to 8.18~8.24 log CFU/g in all yogurts. In sensory evaluation, there were similar preference for eKRWLP yogurts prepared with 10 and 20% substitution ratio and the control. When eKRWLP substitution and control yogurts fermented for 9 h were incubated at $4^{\circ}C$, their pHs and titratable acidities were slightly changed but the number of viable lactic acid bacteria were well maintained above $10^7CFU/g$ for 11 days in yogurts prepared with 10 and 20% substitution ratio among eKRWLP substitution yogurts. These results suggest that eKRWLP can be used as substituent of skim milk and the optimum substitution ratio is around 10~20%.

The international dairy federation's main objectives are to enhance the international dairy market and industry by producing an annual world dairy situation report. The IDF National committee and other international contributors provide a questionnaire to be completed for the country reports on top of other various official studies. Through this report, one can understand the full overview of the global dairy market and specified dairy studies across the world. Due to the economic boom of many developing nations, in 2014 the dairy market saw great increase in the total milk production. The estimated volume is at 802 million tons which is a 3.3% increase from the previous year. The world dairy trade states that due to the abundance of milk, other bi-products such as dairy powder and butter production increased as well. Generally, there is an increasing trend for the demand and supply of milk and all dairy products in the international dairy market.

Taurine contents in alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages, milk and milk products, sugars and condiments were determined for 83 food items commonly used by Koreans. Taurine concentrations of food samples were analyzed by using an automated amino acid analyzer(Biochrom 20, Pharmacia LKB) based on ion exchange chromatography. Taurine was not detected in most carbonated beverages, but found in a variety of fruit and vegetable beverages(canned) in the range of 0.13 ~1.43mg taurine/ 100g wt, and in instant coffee or tea beverages(canned) in the range of 0.10~0.41mg taurine/100g wt. The traditional Korean turbid rice wine(takju) sample contained the highest level of taurine (2.29mg/100g wt) among alcoholic beverages tested, which was followed by wine(0.59~0.88mg tau rine/100g wt) and beer(0.53~0.73mg taurine/100g wt). Ordinary milk samples contained 1.05~1.40 mg taurine/100g wt, and a variety of taurine supplemented infant formulas manufactured by Korean companies included 17.3~25.4mg taurine/100g wt. Taurine was not detected in most sugars and sweetners except a couple of chocolate samples(2.13~2.18mg taurine/100g wt). Exceptionally high level of taurine was found in a curry powder sample(16.9mg taurine/100g wt), while the rest of commonly used condiments contained less than 2.90mg taurine/100g wt.

The aim of this work was to examine the reduction in antigenicity of milk proteins in powdered milk by gamma irradiation which is increasingly used for food safety. Skim milk powder samples were exposed to irradiation doses of 1, 5, and 10 kGy. A greater reduction of ${\alpha}_{S1}$-casein and ${\beta}_{A1}$-casein was found than ${\alpha}_{S0}$-casein and ${\beta}_{A2}$-casein by capillary electrophoresis. Competitive indirect ELISA and passive cutaneous anaphylaxis tests using guinea pigs showed a reduction in antigenicity of powdered milk by 10kGy gamma irradiation. These results indicated that gamma irradiation reduce allergenicity of milk proteins by structural changes of ${\alpha}_{S1}$-casein and ${\beta}_{A1}$-casein, and can be useful for dairy products.

The purpose of this study was to develop Mozzarella cheese analogues by using dairy products in the form of WPC 34, WPC 80, whey protein, demineralized whey powder, and lactose powder along with soy milk. Soy milk was separately blended with 5% WPC 34 (A), WPC 80 (B), DWP (C), WP (D), and LP (E) and also with 10% WPC 34 (F), WPC 80 (G), DWP (H), WP (I), and LP (J). Blending of soy milk and whey products showed that increase in the proportions of whey products (WPC 34, WPC 80, DWP, WP, and LP) led to increase in the protein, lactose, and SNF levels of the admixture. A decrease in fat content was observed for all cheeses prepared from mixtures, relative to those for the control cheese. The nitrogen content within analogue samples was higher than that in the control cheese and increased with increase in the proportions of whey products within soy milk. Higher water soluble nitrogen levels were observed in cheese prepared from whey-product-blended soy milk than in the control cheese. The non-protein nitrogen level within the control Mozzarella cheese was significantly lower than that in the Mozzarella analogues, and, in the case of cheese analogues, it increased with increase in the proportion of whey products in soy milk. With regard to the physicochemical and sensory qualities of the Mozzarella cheese analogues and control cheese, the pH of all analogue samples, with the exception of the cheese prepared from group G, was lower than that of the control Mozzarella cheese. Rheological studies showed that the hardness of Mozzarella cheese analogues was lower than that of the control Mozzarella, while the elasticity, cohesiveness, and brittleness of the analogues was higher. The control sample had a higher meltability level than any of the Mozzarella analogues. Mozzarella cheese prepared with the traditional method had higher browning and stretching levels than all the cheese analogues, but a lower oiling-off level.

As a way of improving the texture and flavor of soybean cheese, whey-say cheeses were made by coprecipitation of various mixtures of whey, whey powder, soy milk and soy protein powder, and mixed culture of str. lactis, str. cremoris and rennet were added, then the cheeses were cured at $15^{\circ}C$ for up to 10 weeks. Physicochemical characteristics of the cheese were investigated by analyzing pH, titratable acidity(TA), water soluble nitrogen, 10% TCA soluble nitrogen, amino acid composition, beany flavor, color and hardness. The pH of whey-soy cheeses during ripening changed from 5.3 to 4.2 after 5 or 6 weeks and maintained that value while that of soybean cheese maintained a higher pH value. TA of whey-soy milk cheeses was gradually increased to the value of 0.4-0.45 after 8 weeks, but that of soybean cheese reached only 0.2 after the same period. Water soluble and 10% TCA soluble-nitrogen increased steadily during ripening. Hardness of the whey-soy milk cheeses reached maximum after three weeks of ripening and greatest at those made from 3 : 1 mixture of whey and soy milk and that from soymilk. Color of the whey-soy milk chesses was lighter than that of soybean cheese. The bean flavor of soybean cheese was strong and persistent for the whole ripening period. Acid flavor was dominant in the whey-so milk cheese and masked the beany flavor partially.
