This study analyzed the changes in the nutritional components, properties, physicochemical properties, general bacteria, and lactic acid bacteria of pickled cabbage depending on the cultivation area. An analysis of the nutritional composition on the first day of storage showed no significant difference in the calories, carbohydrates, protein, fat, and dietary fiber contents regardless of the cultivation region, but regional differences were observed in the vitamin C content in the order of Andong > Pyeongchang > Haenam. The total free amino acid content appeared in the order Andong > Pyeongchang > Haenam, and the GABA (-amino-n-butyric acid) content appeared in the order Haenam > Andong > Pyeongchang. In addition, pickled cabbage was observed on the 1st, 5th, and 10th days of storage at 4oC. No significant change in appearance was observed on the 1st and 5th days, but changes were observed on the 10th day. Regardless of the cultivation area, the salinity (p<0.05) and pH (p<0.05) decreased significantly as the storage period increased, while the sugar content (p<0.05) and acidity (p<0.05) increased significantly. The general bacteria (p<0.05) and lactic acid bacteria (p<0.05) counts increased significantly as the storage period increased, irrespective of the cultivation region.

Purpose: The objective of this study was conducted to investigate the effects of rutin, buckwheat components on cell growth and anti-inflammation in adipocyte 3T3-L1 and human colon cancer cell SW-480. Methods: We cultured 3T3-L1 adipocyte and SW-480 colon cancer cell to confluence, at which time starvation was induced with SFM for 1 day. Cells were then cultured in medium containing 0, 25, 50, or 100 μmol/mL of rutin 3T3-L1 or 0, 10, 20, or 40 μmol/mL SW-480. Cell viability was measured using a cell viability kit. In addition, we examined the expression of mRNA related to inflammation. RT-PCR was used to quantity tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), IL-6, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) mRNA levels. Results: Rutin significantly inhibited 3T3-L1 and SW-480 cell proliferation in a dose and time dependent manner. Rutin also significantly reduced the mRNA expression of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α at the highest dose. In addition, rutin treatment caused a significant reduction in COX-2 and iNOS mRNA levels compared to the control group. Conclusion: Overall, our results suggest that rutin has the potential to reduce inflammation, and that these effects are greater during tissue-damaging inflammatory conditions.

This study examined the lifestyle factors, dietary attitudes, food habits, and dietary nutrition intake of college students before and after nutrition education. A total of 44 college students were recruited and a questionnaire survey was conducted. Dietary nutrient consumption was obtained from the one day 24-hr recall. Scores on ‘Concerns about health (p<0.05)’, ‘Regular exercise (p<0.01)’, and number of steps (p<0.001) were significantly higher after-training. The dietary attitude (31.3 vs. 33.7, p<0.01) and food habits (53.5 vs. 59.7, p<0.01) were significantly higher after-training. The scores on ‘Eating a lot of food that I want to eat is more important than nutrition (p<0.01)’, ‘I am interested in information on nutrition and health (p<0.01)’, ‘Have three meals a day (p<0.01)’, ‘Have breakfast regularly (p<0.01)’, ‘Drink milk every day (p<0.001)’, ‘Have fruits every day (p<0.05)’, and ‘Apply nutrition knowledge to daily life (p<0.001)’ were significantly higher after-training. Among the nutrients intakes, the protein (p<0.05), vitamin C (p<0.01), and calcium (p<0.001) were significantly higher after-training. Nutrition education improved the lifestyle factors, dietary attitudes, food habits, and dietary nutrition intakes.

찹쌀전분의 고압처리시 pH 3~10 조건에서 고유점도는 1.328∼1.426 ㎖/g 범위로 원료전분(1.15 ㎖/g)보다 낮았다. 특히, 고유점도는 산성 및 알칼리성 조건에서 감소하였다. 전분의 호화과정 중 열에너지량을 나타내는 호화엔탈피는 pH 3, 4 및 5 조건에서 고압처리한 찹쌀전분이 각각 13.86, 13.47 및 13.42 J/g으로 원료전분(16.3 J/g)보다 낮은 값을 보였다. 찹쌀전분의 호화온도 및 엔탈피 감소는 고유점도가 낮아지는 현상과 일치하였다.
