This study was intended to observe some nutritional effects of the boiling water extracts of mugwort powder in albino rats. Forty young male albino rats of Sprague-Dawley strain, body weight of $77{\pm}5g$ were employed for the experiment. They were divided into 5 dietary group, 0 (control), 1, 2, 4, and 8g% mugwort powder extract supplemented into the control diet, and fed each corresponding diet to the rats for 4 weeks. They were observed on intake of food and protein, efficiencies of food and protein, amount of energy intake, growing rate, and levels of hematocrit and hemoglobin in the blood. The amount of intakes of food, protein and energy was the highest in the group fed on 4g% mugwort extracts supplemented diet than any other groups studied. The efficiencies of food and protein in the groups fed on mugwort extracts supplemented diets were all lower than that of the control group. The growing rate of the group fed on 1g% mugwort extracts supplemented diet was the highest, however, there was no significant difference among them. The levels of hemoglobin of the groups fed 4g% or 8g% mugwort extracts supplemented diet was higher than that of the control, but not significant.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of dietary mugwort powder on the physico-chemical characteristics of pork. Pig was randomly selected based on three dietary treatments: 1) control(commercial feed) 2) T1(commercial feed supplemented with 1% mugwort powder) and 3) T2(commercial feed with 3% mugwort powder). They were fed with the experimental diets for 30 days and slaughtered. Meat samples were wrap packaged and stored at 4${\pm}$1$^{\circ}C$ In the proximate composition, crude fat was slightly low in the T1 and T2(p<0.05). The pH and TBARS of the control were higher than those of the treatment groups(T1, T2). The pH, TBARS, VBN and WHC of all treatments significantly increased during storage period at 4 ${\pm}$ 1$^{\circ}C$(p<0.05). Oleic acid, palmitic acid, linoleic acid and stearic acid were major fatty acids in pork Linoleic acid and linolenic acid contents were higher in treatment groups than in the control.

This study was performed to investigate the influcence of mugwort on the duodenal ulcer induced by cysteamine administration in rats. Five groups of rats were fed each experimental diet containing 0%, 5%, 15%, 30% of mugwork powder for 10 weeks. Duodenal ulcer was induced by cysteamine injection (400mg/100g body weight) after 10 weeks of feeding experimental diets (C-0, C-5, C-15, C-30). Control animal that fed 0% mugwork powder added diet were injected saline (S-0) to compare with cysteamine injected groups. When the duodenal ulcer induced by cysteamine-HCI administration, all animals in the C-0 group formed erosion and perforating ulcer was found in 44% of animals. Higher the added mugwork ratio, more inhibited of the duodenal ulcer induced by cysteamine administration (C-5, C-15). But when the ratio of added mugwort is 30%, the inhibition effect disappeared (C-30). The alkaline phospatase activities were lower at the duodenal mucosa and small intestinal mucosa in the cysteamine treated groups(p<0.05). The acid phophatase activities were higher at the stomach, small intestine and large intestine of the cysteamine treated groups. But in mugwort added diet group, the changes of enzyme activites were lessended. The maltast activities were lower at the duodental mucosa and small intestinal mucosa of cysteamine treated groups. But in mugwort added diet group, maltase activites were recovered.

The nutritional properties of the Chol-Pyon were investigated with changing the materials (mugwort and pine leaves). In proximate composition, rice powder added mugwort and pine leaves showed the lligher con-tents of crude protein, crude lipid and crude ash than in rice powder. Ihe pH of rice powder, mugwort and pine leaves was 6.4, 6.8 and 3.5, respectively. The rice powder added pine leaves showed the lowest pH value. The content of the free sugar in raw materials for ChOl-PyOn preparation was 0.9% in rice powder, 0.3% in mugwort and 2.7％ in pine leaves. Eighteen kinds of amino acids were determined in raw materials for ChOl-fyOn preparation and their contents were 4.8% in mugwort, 4.2% in rice powder and 2.8% in pine leaves. The major minerals of raw materials for ChOl-PyOn preparation was 0.9％ increased in the order of K> Na > Mg > Ca in rice powder, Mg > K > Ca > Na in mugwort, and K > Ca > Mg > Na in pine leaves. Both of mugwort and pine leaves additives showed the higher contents of 8 kinds of minerals (Ca, Mg, K, Na, Mn, Fe, Cu, Zn) than in rice powder. In relation to changes in the texture of ChOl-PyOn, hardness, fracturability and adhesiveness at 25${\pm}$1$^{\circ}C$ were measured to be highest in white ChOl-PyOn. Cohesiveness was shown to be highest at 15％ in case of mugwort and 2.5％ in case of pine leaves. Elasticity was measured to be highest at 0.99 in case that 7.5% mugwort was added to raw materials for ChOl-PyOn. As a result of estimating the sensory qualities of the ChOl-PyOn prepared to which the additives were added in differing amounts, immediately after its preparation the mugwort additive of 7.5％ showed the superior sensory qualities Chol-PyOn (p < 0,01).
