본 연구는 세발나물의 활용 범위를 다양화하기 위하여 생리활성이 우수한 동결건조 세발나물 분말을 각각 0%(대조군, C), 1%(SM1), 3%(SM3) 및 9%(SM9) 첨가한 쿠키를 제조한 후, 관능검사 및 품질특성을 살펴보았다. 세발나물쿠키의 일반성분 분석 결과 수분의 함량은 세발나물 분말 첨가량이 증가할수록 대조군(C)에 비해 유의하게 낮아졌고, 조단백질 함량은 대조군(C)에 비해 SM9군이 4.27%로 가장 낮은 값을 나타냈으며, 조지방 및 조회분 함량은 세발나물 첨가량에 관계없이 유의적 차이가 없었다. 쿠키의 퍼짐성 지수는 세발나물 분말 첨가군들(SM1, SM3, SM9)이 대조군(C)과 비교하여 유의적으로 감소하였다. 쿠키의 색도는 세발나물 분말 첨가량이 증가함에 따라 명도(L값)과 적색도(a값)은 낮아지고, 황색도(b값)은 높아지는 경향을 보였다. 쿠키의 경도는 대조군(C), SM1군 및 SM3군은 유의차가 없었으나 세발나물 분말 첨가군 중 SM9군이 큰 폭으로 증가하여 가장 높은 값을 나타냈다. 관능평가 결과 쿠키의 향미, 맛, 조직감에 있어서는 세발나물 분말 3%(SM3), 9%(SM9) 첨가군이 높은 점수를 받아 유의적인 차이를 나타냈고, 전체적인 기호도 면에서는 3% 첨가군(SM3)이 유의적으로 가장 높은 선호도를 보였다. 이상의 결과를 볼때 쿠키 제조 시 세발나물 분말을 3% 첨가하는 것이 향미,맛, 조직감 및 전체적인 기호도 등의 조건을 잘 만족시킬것으로 판단된다.

This study was performed to investigate the four-week repeated-dose toxicity of the crude antifungal compounds produced by Lactobacillus plantarum AF1 (Lb. plantarum AF1), a lactic acid bacterium isolated from kimchi, in male and female rats. Sprague-Dawley male and female rats were divided into four groups, with 10 animals in each group. The test article was administered once daily by gavage to rats at dosage levels of 0, 500, 1,000, and 2,000 mg/kg/day for four weeks. There were no test-article-related deaths or abnormal clinical signs in both the male and female rats during the observation period. Furthermore, no differences in the body weight changes, food intake and water consumption levels of the control and treatment groups were found. The hematological parameters, serum biochemical analysis results, histopathological examination results and all other findings also showed no significant or dose-dependent changes. There were also no changes in the organ weights upon the administration of the crude antifungal compounds produced by Lb. plantarum AF1. These results suggest that the oral administration of the crude antifungal compounds produced by Lb. plantarum AF1 had no adverse effects up to a dosage level of 2,000 mg/kg in both male and female rats.

The present study was carried out to investigate the in vivo single-dose acute toxicity of Leuconostoc citreum GR1 (Leuc. citreum GR1), a lactic acid bacteria isolated from kimchi, in ICR male and female mice. The test article was orally administered once to both sexes of mice. The mortalities, clinical findings, autopsy findings, and body weight changes were monitored daily for two weeks. The male and female mice were gavaged with Leuc. kimchi GR1 of four doses (625, 1,250. 2,500 and 5,000 mg/kg). The oral LD50 of Leuc. citreum GR1 was considered higher than 5,000 mg/kg. No significant changes in the general conditions, body weights, clinical signs and presence of gross lesions were observed in both sexes of mice to whom Leuc. citreum GR1 was administered orally. The results indicated that the 5,000 mg/kg dose of Leuc. citreum GR1 showed no adverse effect.

This study was investigated to compare the major chemical components of kohlrabi (Brassica oleracea var. gongylodes) flesh and kohlrabi peel. Among the proximate compositions, the crude fat of kohlrabi peel contained lower than that of kohlrabi flesh, while the contents of carbohydrate and the crude protein were higher in the kohlrabi peel. Total free sugar content of the flesh kohlrabi was higher than that of the peeled kohlrabi, and the major free sugars of the flesh kohlrabi and peeled kohlrabi were identified as fructose and glucose. The value of glutamic acid was greater in amino acids of kohlrabi flesh and kohlrabi peel, and the contents of total amino acids and essential amino acids were higher in kohlrabi peel compared with kohlrabi flesh. Kohlrabi flesh also contained a higher level of unsaturated fatty acids than kohlrabi peel. The contents of organic acid were higher in kohlrabi peel, and the level of oxalic acid was the highest in both kohlrabi. The vitamin C contents of flesh kohlrabi and peeled kohlrabi were 231.36 mg/100 g and 402.75 mg/100 g, respectively. The mineral content of the peeled kohlrabi was higher than that of the flesh kohlrabi, and the mineral contents of the flesh and peeled kohlrabi were greater in the order of K>Ca>Mg>Na. As a result, the contents of total amino acid, essential amino acid, organic acid, vitamin C and mineral were higher in the peeled kohlrabi, and the free sugar and unsaturated fatty acid contents of the flesh kohlrabiwere higher.

This study was conducted to investigate the changes in physicochemical properties of Spergularia marina Griseb by blanching. The proximate composition, free sugar, free amiao acid, organic acid, vitamin and mineral composition of raw and blanching Spergularia marina Griseb were compared. After blanching treatment, the moisture and carbohydrate contents of Spergularia marina Griseb increased, but the crude protein, crude fat and crude ash contents decreased. Total free sugar content decreased by 62.50% compared with raw Spergularia marina Griseb after blanching, and the reduction of galactose was the largest in free sugars. The raw and blanched Spergularia marina Griseb contained all the essential amino acids, except tryptophan. The total amino acid and essential amino acid contents were reduced by blanching, but the essential amino acid ratios of the raw and blanched Spergularia marina Griseb were similar. The amounts of all the detected organic acids were reduced by blanching, except acetic acid. Spergularia marina Griseb was found to contain high levels of vitamin C, vitamin E, and minerals, but these were reduced by blanching. These results showed that most of the nutrients contained by Spergularia marina Griseb are decrease by blanching. Therefore, the blanching conditions that can reduce nutrient loss of Spergularia marina Griseb must be established.

This study was conducted to compare the major chemical components of Korea Crataegi fructrus (KCF) and Chinese Crataegi fructrus (CCF). Among the proximate compositions, the curde fat content of KCF was lower than that of CCF, whereas their crude protein, crude ash and carbohydrate contents were similar. CCF had a higher total free sugar content than KCF. The major free sugars of KCF and CCF were identified as fructose and glucose. The value of glutamic acid was greater in the amino acids of KCF and CCF, and KCF had higher total amino acids and essential amino acids contents than CCF. KCF also had a higher level unsaturated fatty acids than CCF. CCF had a higher organic acid content, but both KCF and CCF had high citric acid levels. and Chinese The vitamin C contents of KCF and CCF were 272.69 mg per 100 g and 262.38 mg per100 g, respectively. The mineral content of KCF was higher than that of CCF, in the following order : K > Ca > Mg > Fe. The results showed that KCF had higher total amino acid, essential amino acid, unsaturated fatty acid and mineral contents and CCF had higher free sugar and organic acid contents.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the rheological properties of pound cake cotaining ginger powder. Ginger powder was added to pound cake bases at 1, 3 and 5%. concentrations. The physical properties of the pound cake with ginger powder were tested by rapid viscoanalyzer (RVA), a farinogram, and an alveogram. The falling numbers were increased with the increment of ratio of ginger powder, but they did not show a significant difference. The higher quantity of ginger powder with cake flour made MTI value the higher and these results showed typical cake flour. The farinogram quality number did not show a significant difference between the control and the other samples. The highest initial gelatinization temperature was that of the control, and the increment of ginger powder on the cake flour made initial gelatinization temperature lower. The peak and final viscosities, however, were higher with the quantity increment of ginger powder. The holding strength did not show a significant difference. As the 5% - ginger- powder pound cake showed the highest setback, it was predicted that the addition of ginger powder to the flour would not play the role of anti-retrogradation. The Pmax and L value of the alveogram decreased with the ginger powder increments.

A new recipe for mandu was developed by adding ripened Korean cabbage kimchi. To counter the bad smell of ripened kimchi and to enhance the function of the food, rosemary was added to it. The preference for the herb over kimchi was determined via a sensory evaluation. The preference was in the following order from highest to lowest: rosemary, lemon balm, and thyme. Ripened Korean cabbage kimchi was added to beef or pork stuffing for mandu. Sensory evaluation was used to determine the optimal contents of ripened Korean cabbage kimchi. The result showed that 75% of the kimchi content was best for beef mandu and 100% for pork mandu.
