The study results regarding the ingredient differences, sensory characteristics, purchasing type, usage and improvement direction for home-made traditional doenjang and factory produced commercial doenjang are as follows. The L-value indicates that home-made traditional doenjang has a higher value in average than the factory produce done, and the a-value indicates the opposite. Home-made traditional doenjang had higher water content than commercial doenjang ; however the pH values of commercial doenjang and home-made were 5.34 and 5.32 respectively, which was very similar. Factory produced commercial doenjang showed higher protein content than the home-made traditional doenjang. Regarding the correlation between ingredients, there was a significantly negative relationship between the L-value and a-value but a significantly positive relationship between the L-value and b-value. There were no significant relationship with water content, pH and protein content. For the color and taste, which are the sensory characteristics, commercial doenjang showed higher value than the traditional doenjang, but for smell, the values were similar. Regarding grittiness, the factory produced commercial doenjang had bigger particles than the traditional doenjang. Preference was a bit higher in the traditional doenjang. Of the 380 study subjects, most were from 40 to 49 years old (65.5%), and the most family type were nuclear families which was a total of 400 people (69%). Moreover, the most residential type was apartment which was 355people (61.2%), and for the monthly income, more than 2,510,000won was 48.3%. For the educational background, college education was 304 people (52.4%), and high school education was 199 people, 34.3%. In the usage, most of the people eat doenjang more than once a week, and usually their parents make the doenjang. People used both commercial doenjang and home-made traditional doenjang >home-made only >factory produced commercial doenjang only in that order. The reasons for using the home-made traditional doenjang aredelicate taste and flavor>more nutritious> anti-cancer ingredients in that order. The reason they use the factory produced commercial doenjang is because they don't know how to make it at home. The things that needed to be improved in the home-made traditional doenjang are bad smell> entire quality> flavor> color in order, indicating that studies for reducing bad smell are required. The things that needed to be improved in the factory produced commercial doenjang are taste & flavor> entire quality>bad smell> color in that order, indicating that people are more concern about it tasting like home-made than the smell. From the above results, we can see that better functional doenjang should be developed for family health and to increase the consumption of the doenjang, which has good functional psychological activities, also more various types of foods that use doenjang and scientific studies to reduce the home-made doenjang smell should be continuously studied. Moreover, studies on how to make the factory produced commercial doenjang taste more like traditional doenjang should be performed.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the quality characteristics of traditional and commercial soybean pastes (Doenjang) for development of traditional soybean pastes. Methods: Proximate compositions, amino acid nitrogen contents, pH, acidity, salt contents, chromaticity, viable bacteria and inorganic substance contents of nineteen traditional and three commercial Doenjang were investigated. Results: Analysis of proximate compositions indicated a significant difference between samples. In moisture content, D10 did not meet the standard of food codex. The contents of moisture, fat, protein and ash were slightly higher in traditional than commercial Doenjang. However, the carbohydrate content was 2-fold higher in commercial than traditional, and thus, the calories were also higher. The amino nitrogen content was lower in commercial than traditional Doenjang. pH, acidity and salt contents of Doenjang were pH 4.67-6.15, 1.53-3.29%, and 9.01-18.78%, respectively. pH and acidity showed no significant differences between traditional and commercial Doenjang, however, salt contents were significantly higher in traditional than commercial Doenjang. In case of chromaticity, the averages of L, a, b values were higher in traditional Doenjang. In microbiological analysis, total bacteria counts were higher in traditional than commercial Doenjang. The number of Bacillus cereus in D12 and D19 exceeded the standard of food codex. Staphylococcus aureust was undetected in all samples. The number of fungi varied widely between samples, with no detection in five traditional and all commercial Doenjang. Results of inorganic substance analysis indicated that contents of inorganic substances in Doenjang were in order of Na, K, Mg and Ca. Overall, Na content was higher in traditional Doenjang. Contents of inorganic substances showed wide variations in traditional Doenjang. Conclusion: For the development of traditional Doenjang, quality standardization and ensuring safety are considered necessary.

Traditional doenjang with Lentinus edodes added at a concentration of 0, 3, 5 and 10% (w/w) was prepared and its physicochemical characteristics were analyzed during fermentation for 6 months. The moisture content, salt level and pH for doenjang were decreased with increasing addition of Lentinus edodes powder, but crude protein content was increased. Among the free sugars, glucose, galactose, arabinose, sucrose and maltose were identified and quantified, with the first two being the major free sugar. Minerals were detected in the order of Na> K> P> Ca> Mg> Fe while the content of Cu, Mn and Zn exhibited little change. The contents of each amino acid of traditional doenjang with added Lentinus edodes, glutamic, leucine and aspartic acids, had a much higher level. In fatty acid compositions, palmitic, stearic, oleic and linoleic acids were analyzed, with oleic acid being the most abundant fatty acid at $56.4{\pm}0.8\sim57.5{\pm}0.5%$ in all the tested samples. GMP and IMP contents of nucleotides and their related compounds were extremely high. It was thought that these substances contributed to the sweet taste of traditional doenjang with added Lentinus edodes. These results showed the applicability and high quality of traditional doenjang with added Lentinus edodes.

This research was conducted to evaluate quality changes in traditional Doenjang and manufactured Doenjang during a storage period of 8 weeks. Low-salt Doenjang and commercial Doenjang were purchased from different manufacturers and proximate analysis as well as changes in isoflavone, polyphenol, flavonoid contents of the samples were investigated using a mass spectrophotometer. The salinity of traditional Doenjang, low salt Doenjang, and commercial Doenjang were $13.2{\pm}1.15$, $7.17{\pm}2.74$, $10.67{\pm}0.35%$, respectively and the salt concentrations of the soybean pastes did not change during storage. After 8 weeks at $35^{\circ}C$, chromatic values of all the paste samples decreased somewhat, with traditional Doenjang exhibiting fewer changes as compared to manufactured Doenjang. Amino acid nitrogen, acidity, microbial population all tended to increase with time, although some samples showed fluctuations during the test period. Moreover, the total isoflavone contents of traditional Doenjang increased with storage time while that of manufactured Doenjang tended to decrease. The isoflavone aglycone was shown to be the highest in traditional Doenjang, while isoflavone glycoside was abundant in manufactured Doenjang. Total flavonoid contents showed similar trends regardless of samples; initial contents of total flavonoid was 0.6 mg/g which increased to more than twice to 1.4 mg/g at the end of storage period. Composition profile of Doenjang extracts was analyzed using UPLC-Q-ToF.

The study was carried out to measure the antitumor effect of traditional doenjang (Korean soybean paste) added with Japanese apricot, garlic or ginger. Four kinds of traditional doenjang inhibited significantly the tumor growth in mice injected sarcoma-I80 cells. Especially, traditional doenjang added with ginger (Gi-TD) showed an inhibition of tumor cell activity of 97% by the administration of 1.0 mg/kg methanol extracts. Among Balb/c mouse administered doenjang extracts, the liver weight of mice fed Gi-TD was heavier than that of the group not administered doenjang. However, no difference was found between the control and doenjang administrated groups in weights of body, spleen, kidney and heart. The activity of natural killer (NK) cells was relatively high in mice administrated with the four kinds of doenjang. Particularly, mice administrated with the Gi-TD methanol extracts showed a strong activity of 82.9%. The activity of glutathione S-transferase (GST) in mice administrated with the 4 kinds of doenjang was higher than that of the group not administered with doenjang. In particular, the GST activity was the strongest in the group administrated with Gi-TD. The results suggest that Gi-TD has a strong growth inhibition activity against sarcoma-180 tumor cells.

본 연구는 우리나라 장수지역에서 제조된 전통된장을 수거하여 식중독세균 오염도와 미생물 군집 현황을 분석하고, 분리된 미생물 군집의 Bacillus cereus 길항 효과를 평가함으로써 전통된장의 미생물학적 안전성을 평가하고자 하였다. 전통된장의 미생물학적 안전성을 평가하기 위해 일반세균, 대장균군, 식중독세균을 실험한 결과 일반세균수는 $10^6{\sim}10^9CFU/g$의 분포를 나타내었고 대장균군은 불검출 되었다. 식중독세균 중 B. cereus는 전통된장 10개 중 7개에서 검출되었으나 기타 식중독균은 불검출 되었다. 실험 결과 장수지역 전통된장에 가장 문제가 되는 미생물은 B. cereus로 나타나 전통된장의 안전성 확보를 위해 B. cereus 제어가 중요한 것으로 판단되었다. 전통된장의 미생물 군집 분석결과 Bacillus subtilis가 155균주(47.4%)로 가장 높은 분포를 나타내었으며, B. licheniformis 68균주(20.8%), B. amyloliquefaciens 46균주(14.1%)로 높은 분포를 나타내는 등 총 327균주가 동정되었다. B. cereus에 대한 길항 효과를 평가한 결과 분리균주 327균주 중 20균주(6.1%)에서 9~12 mm 생육저지환이 관찰되었으며, B. subtilis가 12균주로 가장 많았고, B. amyloliquefaciens 5균주, B. licheniformis 3균주 순으로 분포하였다. 전통된장의 경우 B. cereus 오염도가 식품공장 제조 된장에 비해 높지만 B. cereus 길항효과를 나타내는 균주가 많은 것으로 판단되었다. 이러한 결과를 종합해 볼 때 전통된장에 오염된 B. cereus 위험성은 기존의 생각보다 낮을 것으로 판단되며, 향후 다수의 전통된장을 대상으로 한 B. cereus 길항 효과 실험이 필요한 것으로 판단되었다.

To investigate the consumption pattern of traditional fermented soybean products a survey was con-ducted to the subjects composed of 308 housewives in busan yangsan and ulsan. Doenjang was rated among one of the often-used traditional foods in Korean meal preparation. 67.2% fo the respondents used Doenjang once or twice a week and 22.7% every day and by the educational level the lower in education level used more. Doenjang has been prepared by housewives themselves(46.9%) or by their relatives(30.7%) for the most important reason of good taste and by purchasing of commercial products(22.4%) for convenience. By regional groups the frequency to use commercial products of Doenjang was higher in Ulsan and the younger or the higher in education level showed the higher frequency. The consump-tion pattern of Gochujang was very similar to that of Doenjang. Chunggukjang which has peculiar flav-our showed very low consumption with being rarely used or having not eaten by 60.3% of subjects. Gan-jang was consumed mainly once or twice a week and jin-ganjang was preferred than Guk-ganjang. In the preparing methods Guk-ganjang have been made by housewives themselves(31.0%) by their relativ-es(29.5%) or by purchasing of commercial products(31.0%) and Jin-ganjang mainly by purchasing of commercial products(65.0%) which showed higher consumption frequency of commercial products com-pared with Doenjang and Gochujang.
