This study was conducted to assess effects of soil moisture condition and ventilation on development of fermented fruit of oriental melon. In higher soil moisture condition (-10 kPa), roots absorbed more water and transpiration was decreased under low temperature and high humidity conditions. Development of fermented fruit may be come from absorbed water concentrated placenta with higher soluble solid. Fermented fruit was developed with higher level at Shintozoa and Elite, was developed with lower level at Hongtozoa, and was not developed at self-rooting of oriental melon. Ventilation on fruit did not affect development of fermented fruit at Shintozoa, Elite, Hongtozoa and self-rooting seedling. Ca contents of flesh and placenta of fruit under ventilation treatment were higher than control but contents of Acetaldehyde, Ethanol and Ethylacetate were lower.

The functional properties of Hericium erinaceus were analyzed. The crude protein content was 8.01%. free sugars were mainly composed of glucose(47.09 mg%) and fructose(34.65 mg%), but sucrose and maltose were not detected. The free amino acids were mainly glutamic acid(1,468.12 mg%), alanine(716.07 mg%) and threonine(643.95 mg%) in Hericium erinaceus. It doesn't difference between water and ethanol extract on soluble solid content. Comparing minerals of extracts from Hericium erinaceus, water extract showed higher contents than ethanol extract except for I This tendency is similar to superoxide scavening activity and electron donating activity. But phenolic compounds, ethanol extract was higher than water extract. In comparison of water and ethanol extract of Hericium erinaceus, as a whole water extract was excellent.

Energized-functional water (EFW) and powder (EFP) were manufactured by Kyungwon Institute of Life Science, Seoul, through a series of processes; tap water ultra-purification energy imprinting with catalysts in platinum columns mixing energy-imprinted water + activated zeolites + photosynthetic bacteria fermenting at $25^{\circ}C$ filtering EFW and/or EFP. A single application of EFP to soil under tree canopy before bud burst, combined with three EFW applications to soil during growth of 'Fuji' apples (Malus domestica Borkh.) resulted in a higher Ca concentrations in fruit skins and flesh, and lower Ca and N concentrations in leaves and shoot-bark tissues. EFW also stimulated the net photosynthesis of leaves and root activity. Soluble solid concentrations (SSC) and anthocyanin levels of fruits were also significantly increased at harvest, producing greater firmness and less core browning during storage at $0^{\circ}C$. However, there was no significant difference in titratable acidity of fruit juice between the EFW treatment and the controls.

This study aimed to investigate the beauty food activities of wild-cultivated ginseng (Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer). wild-cultivated ginseng extracts were analyzed for antioxidant, skin whitening, anti-wrinkle effect was measured in water and 70% ethanol extract. The 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging and 2,2'-azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical decolorization activities of water and 70% ethanol extracts were 16.69 and 2.18% as well as 4.04 and 3.25% at a solid content of $200{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. The antioxidant protection factors (PF) of water and 70% ethanol extracts at a solid content of $200{\mu}g/mL$ were 1.06 PF and 1.09 PF, respectively. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARs) were both 96% at a solid content of $200{\mu}g/mL$. As PF and TBARs showed higher activity than DPPH and ABTS, we could know that antioxidant activity in the lipophilic component of wood-cultivated ginseng were superior to water-soluble component of wood-cultivated ginseng. Tyrosinase inhibitory activity was 10.97 and 52.39% in water and 70% ethanol extracts at a solid content of $200{\mu}g/mL$. The collagenase and elastase inhibitory activities as anti-wrinkle effect were 15.71 and 20.43% in water extracts as well as 32.26 and 86.74% in 70% ethanol extract at a solid content of $200{\mu}g/mL$. The results show that anti-wrinkle effect was the best among the other experiments. This extracts from wood-cultivated ginseng, therefore, seems to be a potent beauty food resource against wrinkles.

As the paper industry consumes much water in process and discharge wastewater containing suspended solid and COD(chemical oxygen demand), relevant law against this discharge has been set up to limit the total containment of COD in discharge. This study has been carried out to improve the treatment method for the soluble COD in wastewater produced during the process of paste-board production, which is made of semichemical pulp and waste paper. Applicated methods are, O$_2$AS : O$_2$ activated sludge process DAS : Deep well activated sludge process SAS : standard activated sludge process and proper combination of DAS and SAS 1) As a result of this experiment, we get the following conclusion between in COD sludge loading "X" and COD removable rate in the process of treating waste-water. COD removable rate(％)=(0.778+0.0146/X)${\times}$100(％)……(7) 2) In case that the COD sludge loading is high, it has been cleared out that the COD removable rate shall become low due to unknown unsoluble substances contained in the process. Meanwhile, to increase the efficiency rate of treatment, it is thought to be necessary, to provide long-time contacts with activated sludge. 3) Once the COD of original waste-water and the target COD of treated water are decided, COD sludge loading is obtained from equation(7), and capacity of aeration tank in the effective systems such as O$_2$AS, DAS, to bet the required COD removable rate can be decided. Therefore the choice among SAS, O$_2$AS, DAS methods is made in consideration of required COD removable rate and allowable installation area. 4) In the sedimentation tank with sludge bulking, it is possible to increase the COD removable rate by 3～7％ but still there exist many obstacles to manage this operation.

Chemical compositions of dried Auricularia polytricha mushroom were analyzed when the dried mushroom were soaked in distilled water at different soaking condition. Physicochemical properties of soaked mushroom were investigated. Compositions of chemical components were 12.6% crude protein, 2.1% crude fat, 6.7% crude fiber and 6.2% ash. The contents of Ca, K, Mg were higher than those of other minerals in the sample, but Mn and Ni were of little quantities. The major amino acids of the sample were found to be aspartic and glutamic acid. The increase in the soaking time and temperature increased the ratio of water uptake, amount of water soluble solid, browning and pH value in the soak water. Ribonucleotide contents of the sample after soaking decreased depending on soaking time and temperature.

This study was conducted to investigate the antioxidative and antimicrobial activities of Korean dandelion (Taraxacum coreanum). Water extracts, ethanol extracts and methanol extracts were used to examine the free radical scavenging activity, total flavonoid content, total polyphenol content and antimicrobial activity. The free radical scavenging activity, total flavonoid, total polyphenol and total antioxidant activity of the water extracts were higher than those of the other extraction solvents. The antimicrobial activties of Korean dandelion extracts were examined on several food borne illness microorganisms using the paper disc diffusion method. Inhibition zones were observed on Staphylococcus aureus subsp. aureus, Listeria monocytogenes, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus cereus and Escherichia coli in ethanol extracts. Inhibition zones were also observed on Listeria monocytogenes in water extracts. The physico-chemical properties of Korean dandelion tea according to the roasting time and soaking amount of tea were studied. The pH of the dandelion tea significantly decreased while the soluble solid contents significantly increased with increased roasting time (p<0.01). The lightness of the dandelion tea decreased and the turbidity increased with increased roasting time. In sensory evaluation, the sensory scores for the color, flavor and total acceptability were highest in the 40 min roasted tea. These results suggest that the water extract of Korean dandelion could be used as an antioxidative and antimicrobial functional food source. The optimum roasting time for Korean dandelion tea was 40 min at $200^{\circ}C$.

The physicochemical properties and cooking quality of Saechalssal bori (25% pearled ratio), which is a naked waxy barley, were investigated. The amylose, insoluble dietary fiber (IDF), soluble dietary fiber (SDF), total dietary fiber (TDF), and ${\beta}$-glucan contents of Saechalssal bori were 5.2, 10.8, 9.5, 20.3, and 3.7%, respectively. Pasting temperature, peak and final viscosity, and setback of Saechalssal bori were $66.5^{\circ}C$, 383.2, 231.3, and 55.6 RVU, respectively. The water absorption, expansibility, and soluble solid of Saechalssal bori were 232.2, 405.3, and 3.5%, respectively. As the ratio of water to grain increased, L value increased, whereas a and b values were decreased. The sensory evaluation showed that wateriness and overall acceptability increased with increasing ratio of water to grain, resulting in determining 2.1 times as the optimum ratio of water to grain. The cooked Saechalssal bori prepared using optimum condition had hardness (1.2 kg), cohesiveness (4.0), springiness (1.0), gumminess (5.1), chewiness (5.3), adhesiveness (0.2 kg), and A/H (0.8), respectively.

Dried soybeans (varieties: Saeal, Kwanggyo, Tanyob) took up water rapidly for first 3hr followed by a slower rate of uptake. The beans took up an equal weight of water (100% hydration)after approximately 3.5hr at $50^{\circ}C$, 5hr at $30^{\circ}C$ and 7.5hr at $20^{\circ}C$ respectively. pH of the soaking solutions decreased during the soaking period. This was undoubtedly caused by the ionization of the cellular components resulting in increased levels of hydrogen ions in the liquor. Soluble solids were leached out of the beans at fairly steady rate throughout the hydration and the amount was greater with higher temperature. This amounted to 0.4-0.7g at $20^{\circ}C$ and 10.2-15.0g at $50^{\circ}C$ per 100g soybeans. Temperature was the most important factor in determining the rate of water absorption and of solid losses. Of the total solids lost, 12-25% was protein. The proportion of protein loss increased as the soaking time and temperature increase. Amount of protein loss was 80-200mg at $20^{\circ}C$ and 440-480mg at $50^{\circ}C$ after 24hr soaking per 100g soybeans. About 5% of soluble sugars, including fructose, sucrose, raffinose, and stachyose, was removed from the beans after 24hr soaking at $20^{\circ}C$.
