The effect of cooking(boiling, steaming and baking) and drying on the cholesterol content and formation of oxidized cholesterols and acid value in squid(Japanese flying squid, Todarodes pacificus) was studied. Cholesterol content of live squid meat varied with the portion sampled. The data from spectophotometric assay ranged from 263.2 mg/100g(mantle) to 315.8 mg/100g(tentacle). The cholesterol levels found for squid samples analyzed by gas chromatography(GC) were lower by 7% of total cholesterol for live squid meat and 24% for processed meat than those results by spectrophotometric assay. Cooking resulted some decrease in the initial total cholesterol content of raw meat from 10%(boiling for 5 min.) to 25%(steaming for 5 min.). The amounts of cholesterol remaining after baking were 68% for microwave oven samples and 64% for convection oven samples. Drying of raw tissue caused the greater reduction in cholesterol content than cooking but brought about no significant difference in samples stored for 6 weeks at 4℃ and 20℃. Raw squid meats contained essentially no oxidized cholesterols, while the 22-hydroxychoesterol was detected in frozen meats. The additional oxidized cholesterols as cholestane-triol was indentified with 22-hydroxycholesterol in cooked samples. Sun dried meat stored at 4℃ and 20℃ for 6 weeks had the three kinds of oxidized cholesterols such as 22-hydroxycholesterol, cholesta-3,5-dien-7-one and cholestane-triol. For the boiled and steamed squids, 10% higher acid value and 5% higher acid value respectively were observed but oven cooked samples resulted in a 50% higher acid value than raw samples. Squids had a 45% higher acid value than raw one during sundrying and presrevation at 20℃ but there was not a severe difference of acid value between 4℃ and 20℃ stored samples.

In order to economically utilize dough with B. longum, B. infantis and B. brevis as a bread improver, aerotolerance, α-galactosidase activity, organic acids, farinograph and extensograph of dough were investigated. In aerotolerance of Bifidobacterium sp., B. longum was highest among tested starters, followed by B. infantis. The α-galactosidase activity was highest in the B. longum among tested starters. In organic acids, the contents of lactic acid and acetic acid were the highest in the among tested starters, followed by B. infantis. In farinograms of dough, water absorption and peak time were highest in the B. brevis among tested dough. Extensogram showed that the area increased remarkably in B. longum and B. infantis at 135min of fermentation. Extensibility and resistance to extension of dough were highest in the B. infantis among the dough, followed B. longum.

To investigate the effect of sourdough on the characteristics of quality of barley bread, sourdough starter with Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus sanfrancisco and Enterococcus sp. were added to baking after 48 hours incubation at 37℃. 1. The pH of bread using Lactobacillus sanfrancisco starter was the lowest among tested starters. while the titratable acidity(TTA) of the strain was the highest, followed by Enterococcus sp.. 2. In bread, moisture contents of control were 38%. It was decreased during 6 days. The moisture contents of bread using Lactobacillus sanfrancisco starter were the highest among tested starters, followed by Enterococcus sp.. 3. Oneset temperature(To), peak temperature(Tp) and enthalphy (δH) were increased during storage of 6 days. The enthalphy of bread using Lactobacillus sanfrancisco starter was the lowest among tested starters, followed by Enterococcus sp..

A Lactic acid bacterium for barley bread was isolated from barley powder and was identified as Enterococcus sp. It was used as a starter for barley bread and quality of bread was compared with the bread prepared by conventional starter 1. The pH of bread making process using Lactobacillus sanfrancisco starter was the lowest among tested starters. while the titratable acidity(TTA) of the strain was the highest, followed by Enterococcus sp.. 2. In valorimeter value(v/v), control was 70, but dough using all starter was 60. The peak time and stability of dough using Lactobacillus sanfrancisco were the highest among tested starters. 3. Extensibility of dough using Enterococcus sp. was the highest among tested starters, followed by Lactobacillus sanfrancisco. Proper extensibility and maximum resistance were observed in Lactobacillus sanfrancisco.

To investigate the drinking pattern and behaviors of Yangsan College students, a self-administrated survey was conducted to the subjects, composed of male 336 and female 165. The results of this study were as follows: 1. With regards to kind of alcoholic beverage, 71.6% of subjects responds have a preference for soju, which is favored more by male than by female. 2. The most favorite side dishes are stew and soup(48.2%), then roasted meats and fruits. 3. In the drinking habit, 40.4% of subjects responded that they drink themselves to sleep, 20.6% have more chatter, and 12.5% become silent. 4. 80% of the subjects, some of which recognized overdrinking, responded that the culture to have a drinking after official events is essential, while 6.6% responded that it goes wrong.
