To develop a new Gugija(Lycium chinensis Mill) product having increased value, the physiological functionality of various commercial Gugija products were investigated. In addition, an in vivo study was performed using spontaneous hypertensive rats(SHR) to examine the anti-hypertension effects of products. The results showed that antioxidant activity was highest in the methanol extract of Gugija leaf pickle(97.7%), and anti-hypertensive angiotensin I -converting enzyme(ACE) inhibitory activity was 80.4% in Gugija doenjang(soybean paste) water extract. Anti-cholesterolemia HMG-CoA reductase inhibitory activity was highest in the methanol extract of Gugija rice cake(66.1 %). However, SOD-like activity was below 30% in most products; and fibrinolytic activity was not detected or was very weak. Ultimately, we selected Gugija tea and Gugija wine as superior anti-hypertensive Gugija products, and subsequent in vivo testing was performed using SHR, comparing the tea and wine to Gugija fruit. Among them, the Gugija fruit demonstrated the best anti-hypertension effects in SHR.

This experiments was designed to evaluated the chemical components and nutrition of Aspergillus fumigatus cells. This dried fungal mycellia was consist of crude protein 48.5%, crude lipid 2.9%, carbohydrate 44.7% and total ash 3.4%, respectively. The major fatty acid of total lipid were 27.9% of linoleic acid, 24.6% of oleic acid, 15.4% of palmitic acid and 10.6% of linolenic aicd. Amino acid analysis indicated that the protein was rich in aspartic acid, glutamic acid, leucine, lysine but poor in cystein, methionine, histidine. The fungal cake of Aspergillus fumigatus, when dried and specially processed, has been found to serve as a source of protein in place of soybean meal in the diet of experimental mice. Animal were fed a control diet first, and an incease in weight proved the formulation to be satisfactory. At the end of a 30-day period, the experimental mice showed increases in weight comparable to those of the control animals. The net protein efficiency ratio for the control diet was 3.42$\pm$0.15 and the fungal protein and succinylated fungal protein with DL-methionine they were 3.12$\pm$0.39 and 2.98$\pm$0.06 respectively. This supports the view that dried and succinylated fungal protein can be substituted as a protein source.

In order to develop a novel dewatering process for soybean milk residue, hydraulic press with ohmic heating was built and its expression conditions were examined. The electric conductivity of raw soybean milk residue was 0.128 S/m and increased linearly with increasing temperature. Water content of the residue could be reduced to 74% with the conventional hydraulic press, but to less than 70% by applying ohmic heating to the hydraulic press. The most effective dewatering was achieved by applying alternative current with 5 kHz frequency at 60 V during expression. The solid content of the expressed liauid was markedly reduced from 10% to 3.3% by ohmic heating during expression. Temperature of the cake rose to above $95^{\circ}C$ during the dewatering due to ohmic heating.

Recently, the HACCP(Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point) system has been emphasized in food processing industries throughout the world. However, the system has, as yet, not been applied very well to domestic food industries. Due to the increase in the consumption of bakery products, more studies are required on the application of HACCP to establish the system in small-scale bakeries. This study was designed to provide basic data for setting management standards for HACCP, based on microbiological hazard evaluations of bakery products. Red bean paste filled breads, custard cream filled breads and cakes covered with fresh whipping cream were collected, and microbiological evaluations conducted on the raw materials, the manufacturing processes and potential hazards. The result showed the presence of coliforms in fresh cream of cakes and the soybean paste of soybean paste breads at levels as high as 105 CFU/g on the hazard analysis of the raw materials. Moreover, the general levels of bacteria and coliforms were over those of the standards during the intermediate fermentation and molding processes. Furthermore, high levels of coliforms were detected on the hands of the salesmen and bakers themselves. This suggests that the CCPs (Critical Control Points), such as fresh cream and red bean paste manufacturing process desperately require better management. There is also a requirement for education relating to personal hygiene for the production of hygienic bakery products and for the publics health.

This experiment was conducted to determine the development of mixed organic fertilizer using photosynthetic bacteria and mass production of mixed microbial compound for the environment-friendly agriculture. Photosynthetic bacteria, Rhodobacter sp. SA16 was isolated from soil collected by plastic film house. The SA16 strain was identified based on 16S rDNA sequence analysis and it is closely related to Rhodobacter sp.(100% similarity). The mixed organic fertilizer using SA16 was made of $N-P_2O_5-K_2O=60-10-20\;g\;kg^{-1}$ with combined soybean cake, sesame cake, powdered blood, fish meal, powdered bones and red-yellow soil. The mixed organic fertilizer 0.45, 0.90 and 1.35 Mg $ha^{-1}$ application in Ihyeon series was treated based on soil testing for lettuce cultivation in plastic film house. These results showed that the yield was increased the 18 and 19%over control by the mixed organic fertilizer application 0.45 and 0.90 Mg $ha^{-1}$, respectively. In the physical properties of the soil, the porosity of mixed organic fertilizer 1.35 Mg $ha^{-1}$ treatment was highest at 58.8%. Our results clearly revealed that the organic fertilizer using Rhodobacter sp. SA16 and mass production of mixed strains could be a useful technology in pursuing environment-friendly agriculture.

This study was carried out to investigate the storage stability of Yackwa (a Korean fried cake made from wheat flour, honey and 20% oil), with the variation in frying oils (soybean oil of fresh or heat-treated corn oil and rapeseed oil) and storage conditions (temperature, humidity and in dark or under fluorescent light) for 20 weeks period. In $5^{\circ}C$ storage, acid and peroxide values increased slowly, showing the peroxide value of 20 meq/kg after 13 weeks. In $40^{\circ}C$ storage, acid and peroxide values increased remarkably. The product became harder at storage humidity of 25% and softer by moistening at storage humidity of 80%. Acid and peroxide values of Yackwa from corn, rapeseed and soybean oils increased with storage period, to a different extent. The values of fluorescent groups, especially rapeseed oil group, were higher than those of control groups and the heat-treated oil groups were higher than those of fresh oil groups. Sensory scores for rancid flavor were gradually increased with the storage period in all groups. There was no significant difference with the kinds of frying oils, storage conditions and heat treatment. Correlation of sensory scores with acid values was positive throughout whole storage period, with low ${\gamma}-values$. Its correlation with peroxide values was positive up to 6th week but negative at 9th week of storage.

Edible insects have recently been increasingly promoted as a source of protein. As the number of farms rearing these insect increases, it is important to develop safe and nutritious feed sources to improve their commercial quality. The aim of the current study was to determine the effect of food by-products as feed supplements for the Korean rhinoceros beetle, Allomyrina dichotoma, which has been registered as a general food ingredient in Korea. We compared the effects of waste citrus peel, soybean curd cake, soybean oil meal, and brewers' dried grain on the growth of third instar larvae of A. dichotoma. Groups of larvae were fed with fermented sawdust and nine different combinations of the above by-products and the effects on their growth were measured until pupation. The highest survival rate was with feed supplemented with 10% brewers' dried grain (66.7%, p<0.05), and these larvae were also 26% heavier (p<0.05) than the control group that received no supplementation. In the 10% brewers' dried grain group, the larval period of third instar was shortened by almost 28 days (p<0.01) compared to the control group. Of all the groups, only that which was fed the brewers' dried grain supplement showed more than a 90% pupation rate (p<0.05). Therefore, brewers' dried grain may be useful as a source of feed for A. dichotoma.

Bacillus thuringiensis 656-3 which was isolated from a soil sample of mushroom house and showed high toxicity to mushroom flies, Lycoliella mali and Coboldia fuscipes, was surveyed for insecticidal effect in the oyster mushroom house.3. thutingiensis 656-3 was mass-cultured in the fermenter containing soybean cake(2%) and wheat bran (2%) as media source. Semi-for-mutation of B. thuringiensis 656-3 was performed with metamorphic starch only. When the formulation suspension containing $5{\times}{10^7}$ cfu was sprayed on the mushroom in mushroom house, the insecticidal effect of B. thuringiensis 656-3 to mushroom flies,1. mali and C. fuscipes, was maintained over 90% by the fifth day after starting spraying. The yield of oyster mushroom house with B. thuringiensis 656-3 was significantly increased compared to control. B. thuringiensis 656-3 represents a powerful biological insecticide for the control of mushroom flies.

Marketing of traditional doenjang (a kind of fermented soybean product) is now focusing on its health advantages, being proven to have anti-viral, anti-cancer and anti-oxidant effects. The purpose of this study is to investigate the consumption patterns of traditional doenjang in the households managed by different generations of women living in Gyeonggi area. Six hundred housewives answered the questionnaire. Statistical analyses were performed on 590 subjects using SAS (ver 8.1). Chi-square tests and General Linear Models were used. The age distribution of housewives was as follows: 42.9% were in their 30s; 40.9% were in their 40s; and 16.2% were in their 50s. 57.5% of subjects graduated with high school education while 72.8% of subjects did housework only. Overall, 47.2%, prepared their doenjang themselves, while the remainder purchased it or received it from relatives. This percentage differed however according to age group, as self-preparation of doenjang was found in only 22% of housewives in their 30s, but increased to 83% of subjects in their 50s. 53.4% of subjects had their doenjang donated to them by relatives, compared with only 3.1 % of subjects in their 50s. Most of dishes using doenjang were soups and stews. Those housewives in their 50s made significantly higher use of doenjang in soup, wrapping vegetables (ssamjang), seasoning, and flat cake (jangttok). Doenjang dishes were prepared for the husband in the family 59.2% of the time, followed by housewives 15.4% of the time. Annual consumption of doenjang was 5.1kg. and Kanjang was 4.4L per household; there was no significant difference between the age groups respecting annual consumption. From such results, we may assume a decrease in home-made doenjang among younger generations and an increase in the amount of purchased doenjang. We can predict an increased need for doenjang of better quality. Also the development of new products such as ready-to-eat or fast food variants would better serve the trend towards convenience.
