The variation of content of 12 soybean seed isoflavone components was determined in the aglycone, glucoside, malonylglucoside and acetylglucoside groups of 44 Korean soybean cultivars grown in 2016 as well as in 2017. The total isoflavone content of the 44 cultivars averaged at $2935.4{\mu}g/g$ and was in the range of 950.6 to $5226.3{\mu}g/g$ for two years. Malonylglucoside group averaged at $2437.2{\mu}g/g$ with the highest proportion of isoflavone composition (83.0%). Significant differences were observed between cultivars, years and their interactions for both the total isoflavone and each composition group contents (P < 0.0001); however, no year-wise differences were observed for daidzein and genistin. The broad-sense heritability ($h^2$) within the set of 44 Korean soybean cultivars was as high as 0.93 for the total isoflavone content and was in the range of 0.8-0.92 for each composition group of isoflavone except for acetylglucoside. The total isoflavone content in cultivar group for soy-sprout was higher ($3850.4{\mu}g/g$) than that for the other cultivar groups of soy-paste and tofu ($3082.8{\mu}g/g$), black or green soybean cooked with rice ($2345.8{\mu}g/g$), and early maturity group ($1298.6{\mu}g/g$). The total isoflavone content of 'Sowonkong', a soybean cultivar for soy-sprout, was the highest ($5226.3{\mu}g/g$). In the cultivar group for soy-paste and tofu, the average isoflavone contents of 'Daepung', 'Daepung2ho', 'Saegeum', 'Uram', and 'Jinpung' were higher than $4000{\mu}g/g$. With the exception of small seeded cultivars with low isoflavone contents such as 'Sohwang' and 'Socheongja', the seed size and total isoflavone content were significantly negatively correlated in 2016 and 2017, respectively ($r=-0.47^{**}$ and $-0.49^{**}$). The number of days of growth from flowering to maturity did not affect the variations observed in isoflavone content.

This study was conducted to compare the changes of isoflavone content grown at different planting dates and to determine a relationship between growing periods and isoflavone content, in soybean. A total fifty six soybean varieties, including summer type soybean, Chinese varieties and domestic soybean varieties, were used this experiment. Mean total isoflavone content of domestic soybean varieties was higher than summer type soybean varieties and Chinese varieties. And, the soybean isoflavone content was significantly increased in growth at late planting dates. Soybean isoflavone contents was increased with longer reproductive growth period. While, the relationship between seed weight and isoflavone content showed significantly negative correlation coefficient, -0.57 at Apr. 15, -0.51 at May 15, and -0.38 at Jun. 15, respectively planting dates.

The identification of volatile constituents in foods is important in creating flavor compounds to improve the flavor of foods. This study was conducted to identify the flavor compounds in soybean sprouts cultivated with 4 different types of soybean seeds. A total of 52 flavor compounds were identified and composed mainly of alcohols (16), aldehydes (17), ketones (10), acids (2), furans (2), and miscellaneous compounds (5). Sprouts cultivated with Dawonkong and Orialtae showed 46 flavor compounds whereas Pungsannamulkong and Nokchaekong was 49 and 50. In total flavor compounds contents, Orialtae was the highest (19.3 mg/kg RC) and followed by Pungsannamulkong (15.83 mg/kg RC), Dawonkong (13.2 mg/kg RC), and Nokchaekong (11.3 mg/kg RC) in that order. Two groups including alcohols and aldehydes were detected high amounts in which their ratio were analyzed 32% and 51% in total flavor contents, respectively. It may be responsible for flavor in soybean sprouts. In case each flavor compound content, 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde was detected the major compound and hexanol, 1-octen-3-ol, and hexanal that the main compounds in lipid oxidation of soybean products were identified the main volatile flavor compounds in soybean sprouts.

Objective: This study was to evaluate the effects of individual or combinational use of phytase, protease, and xylanase on total tract digestibility of corn, soybean meal, and distillers dried grains with soluble (DDGS) fed to pigs. Methods: Each experiment had four 4×4 Latin squares using 16 barrows. Each period had 5-d adaptation and 3-d collection. All experiments had: CON (no enzyme); Phy (CON+phytase); Xyl (CON+xylanase); Pro (CON+protease); Phy+Xyl; Phy+Pro, Xyl+Pro, Phy+Xyl+Pro. Each Latin square had 'CON, Phy, Xyl, and Phy+Xyl'; 'CON, Phy, Pro, and Phy+Pro'; 'CON, Pro, Xyl, and Xyl+Pro'; and 'Phy+Xyl, Phy+Pro, Xyl+Pro, Phy+Xyl+Pro'. Results: The digestible energy (DE), metabolizable energy (ME), and nitrogen retention (NR) of corn were not affected by enzymes but the apparent total tract digestibility (ATTD) of phosphorus (P) was improved (p<0.01) by Phy. The DE and ATTD dry matter (DM) in soybean meal were increased (p<0.05) by Phy+Pro and the ATTD P was improved (p<0.01) by Phy, Phy+Pro, and Phy+Xyl. The DE, ME, and ATTD DM in DDGS were improved (p<0.05) by Phy+Xyl and the ATTD P was improved (p<0.01) by Phy, Phy+Pro, and Phy+Xyl. Conclusion: Phytase individually or in combination with xylanase and protease improved the Ca and P digestibility of corn, soybean meal, and DDGS, from the hydrolysis of phytic acid. The supplementation of protease was more effective when combined with phytase and xylanase in the soybean meal and DDGS possibly due to a higher protein content in these feedstuffs. Xylanase was more effective in DDGS diets due to the elevated levels of non-starch polysaccharides in these feedstuffs. However, when xylanase was combined with phytase, it demonstrated a higher efficacy improving the nutrient digestibility of pigs. Overall, combinational uses of feed enzymes can be more efficient for nutrient utilization in soybean meal and DDGS than single enzymes.

In this experiment, I used three samples of oils. The oils that I used were hydrated soybean oil, pure soybean oil and regular soybean oil. The group of rice was fried in the each sample of oil that had not been used for a few seconds. Rice was used after frying at 230-235$^{\circ}C$ every four hours terms and total frying hours was 12 hours. The hydrated soybean oils was least affected in rancidity. The other two oils were more affected in rancidity than the hydrated soybean oil. However, the trans fatty acid in hydrated soybean oil was 36.5%. The diameter of the poped rice that was fried in pure soybean oil and regular soybean oil that had been used 12 for hours was reduced while the diameter of the popped rice fried in the hydrated soybean oil was not reduced. Also, the groups of rice fried in the pure and the regular soybean oil that had been used for 12 hours reduced the hardness in rice while the group that fried in the hydrated soybean oil at the 12th hour kept the hardness well. In sensory evaluation, rancidity order was found apparently in the pure soybean oil that had been used for 12 hour and in the regular soybean oil that have been used for eight hours and 12 hours. Only the hydrated soybean oil did not have distinctive rancidity order at all. The degree of the crispiness was reduced in the pure soybean oil and in the regular soybean oil at 12th hour frying. However, the hydrated soybean oil preserved the crispiness well until the end of 12 hours of frying. In overall preference test, the pure and regular soybean oil that had been used for 12 hour were not preferable. In conclusion, I found that the group fried in the hydrated soybean oil was better in every evaluation than the groups fried in the pure soybean oil and in regular soybean oil. The hydrated Soybean oil may be better to be used in food manufacturing if the trans fatty acid in the hydrated soybean oil can be reduced.

Fermented soybean Mejus were prepared in the laboratory with varying lengths of fermentation and the changes in the Chemical composition during the Meju making were determined. The moisture of cooked soybean was gradually evaporated during the Meju fermentation, and after 2 months of fermentation the water level reached to the level of the raw soybean. The concentrations of crude fat, crude protein and ash of the dry matter of soybean did not change considerably during soaking, cooking and Meju fermentation of up to 3 months, whereas carbohyrates decreased significantly during soaking and Meju fermentation. The percentage retention of the nutrients were 58% for carbohydrates and 93% for crude fat and crude protein. The nitrogen solubility of soybean decreased drastically during cooking, from 79% to 21%, while Meju fermentation increased it to approximately 30% in the first week and this level remained constant for the duration of the fermentation. The concentration of free amino nitrogen in total nitrogen of soybean decreased during cooking, from 7% to 3%, but fermentation of Meju liberated it to the level of raw soybean. The concentration of free amino-nitrogen in the total-N of soybean was increased by cooking and further increased during Meju fermentation. The amino acid pattern of soybean did not change significantly during soaking, cooking and the Meju fermentation up to 3 months. Serine and the basic amino acids, lysine, arginine and histidine, decreased to the range $81{\sim}87%$ of the raw soybean during the first month of Meju fermentation and thereafter remained almost constant. The total amino acid per 16g nitrogen was 99 g incooked soybean and 93 g in 1 month Meju, indicating a 6% reduction.

In order to elucidate the differences of protein profiles among soybean cultivars, the protein composition of three conventional domestic soybean cultivars and two imported ones including glyphosate-tolerant HS2906 was analyzed by total nitrogen measurement, amino acid analysis and PAGE/densitometry. There were no statistically significant differences in the levels of any amino acid, including aromatic amino acids, between glyphosale-tolerant soybean and the conventional soybean WS82. In the extraction of protein, the SDS/buffer system was more efficient than the defatting/water system. The SDS-PAGE/densitometry analysis showed that there was a similar profile of proteins among cultivars, although the amount of total protein ranged from 380.2 mg/g to 423.9 mg/g. In addition, there was no discernable difference of protein profile between glyphosate- tolerant soybean (total protein amount, 380.2 mg/g) and the conventional soybean WS82 (390.2 mg/g), although the amount of ${\beta}$-conglycinin (55 kDa) was lower in glyphosate-tolerant soybean. Meanwhile, the amount of 25 kDa protein was greater in domestic soybean cultivars than imported ones. Thus, normal PAGE/ densitometry method would be useful to analyze the difference in protein profiles of soybean proteins, and furthermore Evaluate the protein profile of proteins between GMO and conventional soybean.

The study was conducted to investigate quality properties and sensory characteristics of soup prepared with 0, 30, 40, and 50% soybean flour instead of wheat flour. Total moisture contents of soup among the different groups were not significantly different, whereas the ash, crude lipid, and crude protein contents of soup increased with increasing levels of soybean flour. pH and total acidity of the test sample added with soybean flour were similar compared to the control, whereas sugar content increased with higher amounts of soybean flour. In the chromaticity determination, L, a and b values increased with increasing level of soybean flour. Total polyphenol and flavonoid contents increased with increasing levels of soybean flour. The antioxidant activity of samples measured based on DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities were significantly higher than the control, and proportionally increased as the amount of soybean flour increased. In the sensory evaluation, addition of 40% soybean flour resulted in the best scores for flavor, taste, thickness, and overall acceptance. Addition of 40% soybean flour increased the intensity of softness and nutty taste and reduced oily taste compared to the control. These results suggest that addition of 40% soybean flour could be applied for preparation of cream soup.

Phenolic compounds such as isoflavones contribute to the antioxidant properties of soybean. This study investigated differences in the phenolic content and antioxidant activity of ten soybean cultivars grown in two different locations in Korea. We observed a wide range of variation in total isoflavone and phenolic content by location and cultivar. The total isoflavone content of cultivars grown at Pyeongchang (sub-highland) was significantly higher than that in cultivars grown at Gangneung (lowland). In contrast, the total phenolic content of cultivars grown at Gangneung was greater than that of cultivars grown at Pyeongchang. The radical scavenging activity of DPPH was similar to that of the total phenolic content rather than that of the total isoflavone content. These results suggest that antioxidant activity of soybean was associated with phenolic compounds rather than isoflavones. To identify the individual antioxidant components, we used an on-line HPLC-$ABTS^+$-based assay system, ESI/MS, and NMR. The results showed that the strongest antioxidant activity was linked to epicatechin.
