This study was undertaken to determine the effect of yellow and black soybeans on plasma and hepatic lipid composition and fecal lipid excretion in Sprague Dawley rats. Animals were fed with diets containing 52% yellow soybean, 50% black soybean, or 20% casein for 7 weeks. Feeding efficiency was significantly increased in the animals fed soybeans(p<0.05). Plasma cholesterol concentration was significantly lowered in the group fed yellow soybean compared with black soybean and casein-fed control (p<0.05). Hepatic triglyceride concentration was significantly lowered in soybean groups compared with casein-fed control(p<0.05), whereas hepatic cholesterol concentration was not affected by diet treatments. Soybean feeding significantly increased fecal weight, triglyceride and bile acid contents compared with casein feeding(p<0.05). It is concluded that soybean feeding in rats affects plasma and hepatic lipid levels by increasing the excretion of triglyceride and bile acids.

To investigate antioxidative and antiaging effects of yellow and black soybeans in vivo system, male SD rats (n＝24) were fed the diets containing casein (C), yellow soybean (YS) or black soybean (BS) for 8 weeks. Experimental groups showed the preventive effect on lipid and protein oxidation, especially protein oxidation of plasma was significantly inhibited in BS group. SOD and catalase activities were not different among the groups, but hepatic glutathione peroxidase (GSH-px) activity was significantly lowered in YS and BS groups compared with control group. The contents of superoxide anion radical in cytosol were significantly lowered in experimental groups compared with control group. And hydroxyl radical was slightly lowered in soybean groups. Lipofuscin accumulation on the heart and eyes of rats was effectively inhibited by yellow soybean and black soybean, respectively. In conclusion, these results suggest that yellow soybean and black soybean have the antioxidative/antiaging effect in vivo system and they have similar activities despite different color of seed coat.

The content of genistein and daidzein which were known to be major antioxidative compounds in soybeans were detected by $C_{18}$ reverse phase HPLC. Most of isoflavones in soybeans were detected in the methanol extract but much less amount of isoflavones in the water extract. Among the four different kind of soybeans, the isoflavone content was highest in brown soybean, followed by yellow, small black and black soybean, in the order. These isoflavones were known to be soluble in hot water, which means transfer of isoflavone content was highest in brown soybean, followed by yellow, small black and black soybean, in the order. These isoflavones were known to be soluble in hot water, which means transfer of isoflavones in soy curd into whey during soy curd processing. To identify the change of isoflavone content during processing of soybean curd, soybean curd were made from yellow, brown and black soybean and isoflavone content were determined in each soybean curd, curd residue and whey. Most of soflavones were remained in the whey, it means most of useful antioxidative compounds were wasted. Thus, it is necessary to develop new technology to collect these isoflavones lost during soybean curd processing.

In this study, soybean pods of 45 soybean landraces (or varieties) were classified as yellow (19 samples), black (23 samples), or black in green (3 samples) based on soybean seed coat color. Total polyphenol and flavonoid contents were measured, and antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-obesity, and estrogen-like activities were assessed. Total polyphenol and flavonoid content ranges were 24.13-108.03 mg GAE/g and 3.31-72.02 mg CE/g, respectively, and were highest in the black group followed by the yellow group and were least in the black in green group, while ABTS and DPPH activities followed the order black in green > black > yellow. Estrogen-like and estrogen receptor-α activity ranges were 29.06-35.58 pg/mL and 7.05-10.13 pg/mL and were followed the order yellow > black > black in green and black in green > yellow > black, respectively. Nitric oxide (NO) inhibitory and UCP-1 activities followed the same order as estrogen receptor-α activities. Our findings suggest that soybean pods are excellent sources of antioxidants and high-quality functional materials.

This study was carried out to investigate the optimal process conditions of instant soybean soup for the soybean noodles. The process of soybean soup was in the other or soaking, cooking, peeling, drying, milling and packaging. The optimal conditions of soaking process obtained at 25$\^{C}$ for 4hrs, and the protein content of yellow and black soybean after soaking treatment were 21.97% and 19.58%, respectively. As the increasing of cooking time, the moisture content was not changed, and optimal cooking condition through the sensory evaluation was obtained at 100$\^{C}$ and 15min. The protein contents of cooked yellow and black soybean dried by hot-air and far infrared-ray were 43.40∼44.18% and 44.59∼51.36%, respectively. From the results of sensory evaluation, the yellow and black soybean dried with far infrared-ray at 45$\^{C}$ for 5hrs were excellent, and the difference between the marketed soybean soup and instant soybean soup produced by this experimental process for soybean noodles was not exist. The optimal concentration of instant soybean soup for soybean noodles was determined to be 50g of soybean powder with 1L water.

From the evaluation of physical properties such as springiness, gumminess, adhesiveness, chewiness and hardness by the texture analyzer, vegetable soybean lines with green seed-coat were best as compared with those with black, brown, mixed, and yellow seed-coats. A panel test evaluated on the basis of taste, sweetness, chewiness, and total scores also indicated that soybean lines with green seed-coat were the best. The total scores of panel test was decreased in the order of green > yellow> black> brown seed-coat colored soybean. The mean value of sucrose content obtained by HPLC analysis was highest in black seed-coat colored soybean, and followed by green, yellow, and brown soybeans. The highest sucrose content (8.22%) was observed in 180362, a soybean line with green seed-coat. The full-season type soybeans showed much higher sucrose content than summer types which are mainly cultivated on farmer's fields for vegetable purposes. The final 13 lines selected from 300 colored soybeans showed nearly the same panel scores as Miwongreen. However, these lines had a great deal of variation in sucrose content, and much higher readings in texture analysis than Miwongreen, especially in chewiness and hardness which were the most important properties in vegetable soybeans.

We profiled the health-promoting bioactive components in nine types of soybean seeds with different seed coat colors (yellow, green, brown, and black) and investigated the effects of different extraction solvents (methanol, ethanol, and water) on their antioxidant activities. The carotenoid and anthocyanin compositions varied greatly by seed color, and the phenolic acids, total phenol, and total flavonoid contents differed by genotype. The carotenoid content was relatively higher in soybean seeds with green and black seed coats than in those with a yellow seed coat while lutein was the most plentiful. The anthocyanin content was considerably higher in the soybean seed with the black seed coat. The results of the DPPH assay showed strong antioxidative activities in the methanol- and water-extracts compared to the ethanol-extract, irrespective of the seed coat colors. Moreover, the soybean seeds with the black seed coat exhibited the highest antioxidant activity among the samples, regardless of the extraction solvent used. Eighteen bioactive compounds were subjected to data-mining processes including principal component analysis and hierarchical clustering analysis. Multivariate analyses showed that brown and black seeds were distinct from the yellow and green seeds in terms of the levels of carotenoids and anthocyanins, respectively. These results help our understanding of the compositional differences in the bioactive components among soybean seeds of various colors, providing valuable information for future breeding programs that seek to enhance the levels of compounds with health benefits.
