본 연구는 폭염 스트레스(extreme heat stress, EHS, 33±2℃)에 노출된 브로일러에서 대두유, 당밀, 아미노산, 비타민 C를 적절하게 함유하는 폭염사료 (extreme heat stress diet, EHSD)급여가 짧은 사슬지방산 및 성장능력에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 부화 당일 Ross 308 병아리 500 마리를 5처리구로 완전임의배치 하였다. 각 처리구는 4반복을 가졌으며 각 반복은 25마리씩 배치하였다. 처리구는 역전점등과 함께 T1 (일반환경+기초사료 basal diet, BD), T2 (EHS+BD), T3 (EHS+BD 내 우지를 대두유로 대체 및 당밀 2%를 함유하는 EHSD), T4 (EHS+BD 내 우지를 대두유로 대체, 당밀 2%, 메치오닌과 라이신을 각각 일반사료의 1.5배씩 함유하는 EHSD), T5 (EHS+BD 내 우지를 대두유로 대체, 당밀 2%, 메치오닌과 라이신을 각각 일반사료의 1.5배씩 추가 및 비타민 C 200 ppm을 함유하는 EHSD)로 구분하였다. 브로일러의 증체량은 T1, T2와 비교할 때 T4, T5에서 유의하게 증가하였다. 그리고 면역기관, F낭, 흉선, 비장의 무게는 서로 비슷하였다. 또한 혈청 IgG, IgA, IgM 농도는 T4, T5가 T1, T2에 비교할 때 높았으나 코르티코스테론 농도는 유의하게 낮아졌다. 특히 맹장의 Lactobacillus는 T4, T5가 T1, T2에 비해서 증가하였으나 Escherichia, Coliform, Total aerobic bacteria는 오히려 유의하게 감소하였다. 초산, 프로피온산 및 총 짧은 사슬지방산 함량은 T4, T5가 T1, T2와 비교할 때 유의하게 높았다.

본 연구에서는 초임계 CO2 추출법을 이용하여 공정변수가 대두유의 수율에 미치는 영향과 초고압 처리가 초임계 추출에 미치는 영향에 대하여 분석하였다. RSM 실험법을 통한 최적화 실험에서 468.18 bar, 80.23oC, 46.82 g/min의 조건에서 최대값 25.88%를 나타내었다. 초임계 추출법의 최적추출조건에서 초고압 전처리 후 추출 수율은 17.15-23.66%로 전처리 전보다 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 462.13MPa, 1분의 추출조건에서 정상점은 최대값으로 24.91%가 예측되었다. 초고압 전처리 후 초임계 추출에서 수율이 증가하지 않은 이유는 초고압 전처리시 입자의 뭉침현상이 일어나 평균입자크기가 증가하여 나타난 현상으로 추론하였다. 결과적으로 초고압 전처리는 초임계 추출 수율 증가에 영향을 미치지 못하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 초임계 CO2 추출법을 이용하여 대두유를 추출할 경우 추출 압력, 유량이 높을수록 추출온도가 낮을수록 더 많은 양의 대두유를 추출할 수 있다.

This study was carried out to investigate the physicochemical properties of mung bean starch and the texture of cold-stored (5℃ for 0, 24, 48, and 72 hours) mung bean starch gels added with soy bean oil (0, 2, 4, 6%). The swelling power of mung bean starch added with soy bean oil did not significantly change, whereas solubility increased significantly. Soluble carbohydrate content of mung bean starch added with soy bean oil decreased without any significant differences, whereas soluble amylose content decreased significantly. In RVA viscosity, pasting temperature and peak viscosity of mung bean starch added with soy bean oil were not significantly different, whereas minimum viscosity decreased and breakdown and consistency increased significantly. In RVA viscosity, there were no differences according to concentration of soy bean oil. DSC thermograms show that onset temperature of mung bean starch added with soy bean oil did not significantly change, whereas the enthalpy increased in the case of 4% and 6% oil addition. Rupture properties of freshly prepared mung bean starch gels added with soy bean oil increased in the case of 2% and 4% oil addition, and oil addition to mung bean starch gels suppressed changes in rupture properties during cold storage. There were no significant differences in the texture of freshly prepared mung bean starch gels added with soy bean oil, whereas hardness, chewiness, and gumminess of cold-stored mung bean starch gels added with soy bean oil decreased. In the above textural charactristics, there were no differences due to concentration of soy bean oil. Thus, the addition of 2-4% soy bean oil to mung bean starch is appropriate for improving the quality characteristics of cold-stored mung bean starch gels.

Epoxidized soy bean oil (ESBO) is a plasticizes of PVC which is being widely used as a gaskets for the lid of glass jars including baby food. Using reverse mutation assay, chromosome aberration test and micronucleus test, ESBO were evaluated the mutagenicity. In the reverse mutation test, ESBO did not induced mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA1535, TA1537, TA102 with and without metabolic activation. In the chromosome aberration test using CHL cells, the results showed no increased structural and numerical aberrations in the concentration of sample producing cytotoxicity with and without metabolic activation. The in vivo induction of micronuclei was measured in polychromatic erythrocytes of bone marrow of young (3 weeks old) and adult (6 weeks old) ddY mice of both sex. At 24 hours after treatment with ESBO 20, 10, 5, 2.5 g/B.W. kg/corn oil 10 ml by oral route animals were sacrificed and bone marrow cells were prepared for smear slides. The results showed no increased micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes regardless of sex and age. It was concluded that water soluble ESBO did not show certain genotoxicity within our studies conducted.

Characteristics of the transesterification reaction between triglycerides in soy bean oil and methanol were investigated in the presence of acid catalysts. such as sulfuric acid and PTS (p-toluene sulfonic acid). Concentrations of diglyceride and monoglyceride which were intermediates in the reaction mixtures, were far below 10% of triglyceride under any reaction conditions. Thus, conversion of the reaction could be determined from the concentration of triglyceride. Dried PTS had more superior catalytic power than sulfuric acid for transesterification reaction between soy bean oil and methanol. When transesterification reaction of soy bean oil was catalyzed by 1 wt% of PTS at methanol stoichiometric mole ratio of 2 and 65℃, final conversion reached 95% within 48 hours. If FAME (fatty acid methyl ester) was added into reaction mixture of soy bean oil, methanol and PTS catalyst, it converted reaction mixture into homogeneous phase, and substantially increased reaction rate. When reaction mixture was freely boiling which had equal volumetric amount of FAME to soy bean oil, methanol stoichiometric mole ratio of 2 and 1 wt% of PTS, final conversion achieved value of 94% and temperature approached to 110℃ within 2 hours.
