Samples of six varieties of soybeans (Bongeui, Danyup-kong, Dongpuktae, Hwangkeum-kong, Jangyup-kong, Kanglim) were analysed for their chemical composition and amino acid content by A.O. A. C. method (1980) and amino acid analyser in order to determine their nutritive value. 1) Chemical composition of soybean was affected by the varieties. The protein contents of 6 varieties of soybeans grown at Suwon were 48.84% in Kanglim, 45.57% in Bongeui, 43.73% in Dongputtae, 41.56% in Jangyup-kong, 40.86% in Hwangkeum-kong, and 40.05% in Danyup-kong. 2) Compared to FAO (1970) chemical score of soybean (A/E ratio and A/T ratio), three varieties of Korean soybeans (Bongeui, Danyup-kong, Hwangkeum-kong) showed higher levels of nutritive value in protein and three varieties of soybeans (Dongpuktae, Jangyup-kong, Kanglim) showed lower levels of nutritive value in protein. From protein content and chemical score, Bongeui showed the greatest potential for the best high protein source among Korean soybean varieties. 3) The determination of first limiting amino acid in six varieties of Korean soybeans by whole egg protein was methionine, but valine was the first limiting amino acid in Danyup-kong and methionine- cystine was other five varieties of Korean soybeans by FAO provisional amino acid pattern.

The effects of carnitine in diets with or without added fat (5% lard or soybean oil) were evaluated in 72 Large White ${\times}$ Landrace ${\times}$ Duroc pigs weaned at 35 days of age. Pigs were fed a 1.30% lysine corn-soybean basal diet+15% dried whey+4% fish meal with carnitine at 0 or 50 mg/kg and either 0% added fat, 5% soybean oil or 5% lard for 6 weeks in a $2{\times}3$ factorial trial (6 treatments, 3 pens per treatment, 4 pigs per pen). Addition of carnitine increased average daily gain (ADG) and average daily feed intake (ADFI) in the second two weeks of the six-week trial and overall, but had no significant effect on feed per gain (F/G). Lard alone depressed ADG (p<0.05) in the last two weeks of the trial and overall, but the ADG for pigs fed lard+carnitine was similar to the control. Lard reduced feed intake in the first two weeks of the trial (p<0.05). Carnitine reduced the percentage of pigs with poor (ADG<375 g/d) growth (15 vs 40%; p<0.05). The greater uniformity of growth was most evident in low-weaning-weight pigs in the second period (16 vs 62%, p<0.005). Addition of fat did not produce any positive effect on uniformity and had no interaction with carnitine on uniformity. Carnitine addition increased serum total carnitione and short-chain acyl-carnitine levels (p<0.05), but did not modify free carnitine levels. Serum carnitine levels were lower at weaning than at 14, 28, or 39 days after weaning (p<0.05). Carnitine increased serum protein levels on day 14 (p<0.05). Addition of fat in the form of soybean oil or lard did not improve piglet growth performance. Addition of 50 mg/kg of carnitine to the diet of weanling pigs enhanced postweaning performance.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Doenjang, Korean traditional fermented soybean paste has been reported to have an anti-obesity effect. Because adipose tissue is considered a major source of inflammatory signals, we investigated the protective effects of Doenjang and steamed soybean on oxidative stress and inflammation in adipose tissue of diet-induced obese mice. MATERIALS/METHODS: Male C57BL/6J mice were fed a low fat diet (LF), a high-fat diet (HF), or a high-fat containing Doenjang diet (DJ) or a high-fat containing steamed soybean diet (SS) for 11 weeks. RESULTS: Mice fed a DJ diet showed significantly lower body and adipose tissue weights than those in the HF group. Although no significant differences in adipocyte size and number were observed among the HF diet-fed groups, consumption of Doenjang alleviated the incidence of crown-like structures in adipose tissue. Consistently, we observed significantly reduced mRNA levels of oxidative stress markers (heme oxygenase-1 and $p40^{phox}$), pro-inflammatory adipokines (tumor necrosis factor alpha and macrophage chemoattractant protein-1), macrophage markers (CD68 and CD11c), and a fibrosis marker (transforming growth factor beta 1) by Doenjang consumption. Gene expression of anti-inflammatory adipokine, adiponectin was significantly induced in the DJ group and the SS group compared to the HF group. The anti-oxidative stress and anti-inflammatory effects observed in mice fed an SS diet were not as effective as those in mice fed a DJ diet, suggesting that the bioactive compounds produced during fermentation and aging may be involved in the observed health-beneficial effects of Doenjang. CONCLUSIONS: Doenjang alleviated oxidative stress and restored the dysregulated expression of adipokine genes caused by excess adiposity. Therefore, Doenjang may ameliorate systemic inflammation and oxidative stress in obesity via inhibition of inflammatory signals of adipose tissue.

Natural and beneficial associations between plants and bacteria have demonstrated potential commercial application for several agricultural crops. The sunflower has acquired increasing importance in Brazilian agribusiness owing to its agronomic characteristics such as the tolerance to edaphoclimatic variations, resistance to pests and diseases, and adaptation to the implements commonly used for maize and soybean, as well as the versatility of the products and by-products obtained from its cultivation. A study of the cultivable bacteria associated with two sunflower cultivars, using classical microbiological methods, successfully obtained isolates from different plant tissues (roots, stems, florets, and rhizosphere). Out of 57 plant-growth-promoting isolates obtained, 45 were identified at the genus level and phylogenetically positioned based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing: 42 Bacillus (B. subtilis, B. cereus, B. thuringiensis, B. pumilus, B. megaterium, and Bacillus sp.) and 3 Methylobacterium komagatae. Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis showed a broad diversity among the Bacillus isolates, which clustered into 2 groups with 75% similarity and 13 subgroups with 85% similarity, suggesting that the genetic distance correlated with the source of isolation. The isolates were also analyzed for certain growth-promoting activities. Auxin synthesis was widely distributed among the isolates, with values ranging from 93.34 to 1653.37 ${\mu}M$ auxin per ${\mu}g$ of protein. The phosphate solubilization index ranged from 1.25 to 3.89, and siderophore index varied from 1.15 to 5.25. From a total of 57 isolates, 3 showed an ability to biologically fix atmospheric nitrogen, and 7 showed antagonism against the pathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. The results of biochemical characterization allowed identification of potential candidates for the development of biofertilizers targeted to the sunflower crop.

백서를 이용하여 콩가공품(두부, 비지)의 섭취가 간장 및 혈청의 콜레스테롤 농도에 미치는 효과를 검토하였다. 단백질원으로서 casein, 건조두부분말 또는 casein과 건조비지분말의 혼합물(3 : 1, w/w)을 코레스테롤이 첨가된 정제사료로 4주간 수컷 백서를 사육하였다. 두부분말과 비지혼합물의 섭취는 카제인 단독섭취에 비하여 현저한 혈청콜레스테롤 농도를 감소시켰다. HDL-콜레스테롤농도는 카제인 섭취군이 다른 두 군보다 높았으나, HDL-콜레스테롤과 총콜레스테롤 농도에 비해 유의한 차이는 없었다. 간장콜레스테롤은 caseind을 섭취했던 두 군에 비하여 두부섭취군에서 현저하게 낮은 온도를 나타내었다. 이러한 결과는 콜레스테롤 첨가사료를 섭취한 백서에 있어서 콩가공품의 콜레스테롤 저하작용, 더 나아가 비지의 섭취는 식이중 동물성 단백질의 존재에도 불구하고 효과적인 혈청콜레스테롤 농도의 조절 가능성을 시사한다.

Production of pullulan by Aureobasidium pullulans HP-2001 with agro-industrial byproducts was investigated. Agro-industrial byproducts from the rice processing industry for the traditional Korean food (AIB-A), apple juice production (AIB-B), and soybean sauce production (AIB-C) were used for carbon and nitrogen source for production of pullulan. Major components of AIB-A were glucose, maltose, maltotriose, and dextran. AIB-A and B were found to be good substitute to glucose as carbon source. Productivity of pullulan with AIB-A and B as carbon source was similar to that glucose. Molecular weight of pullulan produced with AIB-A and B was higher than that with glucose. Major components of AIB-B and C were carbohydrate, protein, fat and ash. AIB-C was also a good substitute to yeast extract as nitrogen source. Some of physiological conditions were examined for the large scale production of pullulan.

A study was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary lipid sources on the growth and fatty acid composition of juvenile sea cucumber. For 12 weeks, three replicate groups of sea cucumber (average weight 1.4 g) were fed one of three diets, containing squid liver oil (SLO), soybean oil (SO), or linseed oil (LO) as a dietary lipid source, or a control diet (CON) without added lipids. Sea cucumber survival was not significantly different among dietary treatments (P>0.05). The highest weight gain was observed in sea cucumber fed the SLO diet, whereas the weight gain of sea cucumber fed the SO diet was the lowest among dietary treatments (P<0.05). No significant differences were found in the moisture, crude protein, crude lipid, and ash contents of whole sea cucumber body among dietary treatments (P>0.05). Concentrations of 20:5n-3 and 22:6n-3 were significantly higher in sea cucumber fed the SLO diet than in those fed on the other diets. The highest 18:2n-6 and 18:3n-3 contents were observed in sea cucumber fed the SO and LO diets, respectively. The results of this study suggest that squid liver oil could be used as a good lipid source in formulated diets for juvenile sea cucumber.
