SQI method has been proven to be an efficient image preprocessing technique for illumination-invariant face recognition. In this paper, we propose to apply smoothing and Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization before SQI method. The motivation is to conquer the suppress noise that may hinder recognition task and enhance sharp edges in low frequency illumination parts which is beyond the capability of SQI.

본 연구에서는 단백질이 풍부한 원료 콩에 청국장에서 분리한 Bacillus subtilis와 김치에서 분리한 Lactobacillus plantarum을 이용한 혼합 발효를 통해 대두 발효 제품의 개발을 목표로 한 연구결과는 다음과 같은 분석 결과를 얻었다. Bacillus subtilis 단독 배양 발효 두유, Lactobacillus plantarum 단독 배양 발효 두유, 또한 두 균을 혼합 배양한 발효 두유의 항산화 활성을 상호 비교하였다. 그 결과, Bacillus subtilis 단독 배양 발효 두유의 총 폴리페놀 함량, DPPH 라디칼 소거능, 환원력, 아질산염 소거능이 각각 3580.91 ㎍/㎖, 67.14%, 6.54㎎/㎖, 83.63%로 가장 높았다. 혼합 발효 두유의 기능성을 증진시키기 위하여 토마토 추출물을 첨가하여 발효 두유를 제조하였고, 토마토 에탄올 추출물을 0, 0.25, 0.5, 그리고 1.0% 첨가한 토마토 요구르트의 항산화력은 토마토 첨가량 농도 의존적으로 항산화력이 유의적으로 증가하였다. 특히 DPPH 라디칼 소거능은 토마토 무첨 가구는 28.39%인데 비해, 토마토 요구르트는 33.46~57.12%까지 증가하였다. This study was performed to investigate the effect of types of microorganisms on the antioxidant activity of soybean yogurt by a single or mixed culture of Bacillus subtilis and Lactobacillus plantarum isolated from chunggukjang and kimchi. The fermented soybean milk by Bacillus subtilis exhibited the highest values of total polyphenol, DPPH radical scavenging activity, reducing power and nitrite scavenging activity compared to those of Lactobacillus plantarum or mixed culture of Bacillus subtilis/Lactobacillus plantarum. As the amount of tomato extract was added to the soybean milk, various antioxidant parameters, such as total polyphenol, DPPH radical scavenging activity, reducing power and nitrite scavenging activity, were linearly increased.

본 연구에서는 단백질이 풍부한 원료 콩에 청국장에서 분리한 Bacillus subtilis와 김치에서 분리한 Lactobacillus plantarum을 이용한 혼합발효를 통해 대두 발효 제품의 개발을 목표로 한 연구결과는 다음과 같은 분석 결과를 얻었다. 우수 균주 선별을 위한 연구로 고초균의 경우 단백질 분해능이 높은 균주를 청국장에서 분리하였고, 유산균의 경우 산도 생성이 높은 균주를 김치에서 분리하였다. 그리고 청국장에서 분리한 균주는 Bacillus subtilis로, 김치에서 분리한 균주는 Lactobacillus plantarum으로 동정되었다. 두유 발효에서 pH는 Lactobacillus plantarum를 이용한 두유 발효와 혼합 배양의 경우가 급격한 낮은 경향을 나타내었고, Bacillus subtilis 단독 배양일 경우가 다른 처리구에 비해 완만한 변화를 보였다. Lactobacillus plantarum을 이용한 두유 발효와 혼합 배양의 경우가 lactic acid의 생성은 배양 8시간 이후에 급격히 증가하였으며, Bacillus subtilis 단독 배양의 경우가 완만하게 증가한 경향을 나타내었으며, 이는 pH 분석에서 나타난 결과와 일치하였다. 두유 요구르트 생육도 측정 결과는 혼합 배양의 경우 단독 배양에 비해 증식이 더 우수하였으며, 배양 32시간째 각 처리 구별 총 균수는 Lactobacillus plantarum의 경우 1.02×108 cfu/㎖, Bacillus subtilis의 경우 2.12×108 cfu/㎖인데 비해 혼합 배양의 경우는 4.09×108 cfu/㎖로 가장 높았다. α-Amylase의 활성은 Bacillus subtilis 단독 배양과 혼합 배양일 경우는 8시간 이후 효소 활성이 증가되면서 24시간 동안 발효시 22.01 unit/㎖, 8.13 unit/㎖로 가장 높았다. Protease의 경우는 Bacillus subtilis 단독 배양과 혼합 배양일 경우는 8시간 이후 활성이 증가하기 시작하여 발효 32시간째 103.08 unit/㎖, 85.84 unit/㎖로 활성이 높게 나타났다, Lactobacillus plantarum 단독 배양일 경우는 가수분해효소 활성이 없는 것으로 나타났다. The microorganisms producing high protease activity and acid producing ability were isolated from Chunggukjang and kimchi, which were identified as Bacillus subtilis and Lactobacillus planetarum by morphological, biochemical and nutrient requirement. The attempt was made to produce soybean milk yoghurt by using the isolated microorganisms. The mixed culture of Bacillus subtilis and Lactobacillus plantarum exhibited the lowest pH value of 4.23 and highest titratable acidity of 0.88% compared to those of single cultures at 37℃ for 32 hrs, and their total viable count was 4.09×108 cfu/㎖. The α-amylase activity was the highest in culture of Bacillus subtilis after incubation for 24 hrs, while protease activity was most produced in mixed culture of Bacillus subtilis and Lactobacillus plantarum. The amounts of reducing sugars were steadily decreased as soy milk fermentation progressed.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of the addition of dandelion on color, texture, and antioxidant activity in Jeolpyon. Jeolpyon was prepared with varying amounts of dandelion ranging up to 20%. They were stored for 3 days at room temperature, and the color and texture were analyzed at different time intervals. L and a values decreased with increasing dandelion concentration while b values increased with increasing dandelion concentration in Jeolpyon. From texture analysis by Rheometer, the hardness and chewiness seem to be affected dramatically by the addition of dandelion in Jeolpyon. During storage, the control Jeolpyon without dandelion displayed greater than two fold increase in hardness, chewiness and brittleness, while the Jeolpyon with added dandelion had only slight increase during storage. The addition of dandelion in Jeolpyon also increased antioxidant activities such as DPPH radical scavenging activity, ABTS radical scavenging activity and reducing power. The antioxidant activities increased linearly with increasing dandelion concentration in Jeolpyon. The increase of antioxidant activities in Jeolpyon with the addition of dandelion may be attributed to the polyphenols in dandelion since the amount of total polyphenols increased with increasing amounts of dandelion in Jeolpyon. In sensory evaluation, the panels of twenties, thirties, and forties gave high scores to Jeolpyon with dandelion containing 10% 15%, and 20%, respectively in overall evaluation.

Three different Allium plants, including wild garlic (Allium monanthum Max; AMM), onion (Allium cepa L.; ACL) and green onion (Allium fistulosum L; AFL), have been widely used as spicy food in daily life. This study was attempted to investigate the properties of antioxidant, whitening and anti-wrinkle activities in water extracts in Allium plants. The antioxidant, whitening and anti-Wrinkle activities were evaluated by performing DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities, inhibitory effects on tyrosinase, and elastase, respectively. The water extract (10 mg/mL) of onion, wild garlic and green onion exhibited DPPH radical scavenging activities of 28.46%, 28.45%, and 15.91%, respectively. The inhibitory effects of tyrosinase activities by wild garlic, green onion, and onion were increased by heating the extracts at $90^{\circ}C$. Additionally, the wild garlic extract showed higher elastase inhibitory activity than those of other plant extracts. These results suggest that water extracts of Allium plants may be useful as potential sources of beauty foods due to higher antioxidant, anti-melanin and anti-wrinkle activities. 본 연구에서는 Allium 속 식물인 달래, 대파, 양파의 물 추출물에 존재하는 항산화 활성과 tyrosinase 및 elastase 저해 효과를 확인하여 화장품 자원으로 이용 가능성을 확인하고자 하였다. DPPH 라디칼 소거능의 실험에 사용한 식물 물 추출물의 $IC_{50}$은 양파($IC_{50}=19.81mg/mL$) < 달래($IC_{50}=21.50mg/mL$) < 대파($IC_{50}=137.87mg/mL$) 순으로 높았다. 그리고 ABTS 라디칼 소거능의 경우에도 양파($IC_{50}=7.67mg/mL$) < 달래($IC_{50}=8.17mg/mL$) < 대파($IC_{50}=11.88mg/mL$) 순으로 DPPH 라디칼 소거능의 결과와 일치하였다. 그리고 달래 물 추출물의 총 폴리페놀 함량을 측정한 결과, 달래 물 추출물(43.03 mg/g)이 가장 높았으며, 그 다음으로 양파(38.27 mg/g), 대파(30.01 mg/g) 순이었다. Tyrosinase의 저해 효과를 측정한 결과, 대파 물 추출물($IC_{50}=36.95mg/mL$) < 양파($IC_{50}=37.31mg/mL$) < 달래($IC_{50}=51.97mg/mL$) 순으로 대파 물 추출물이 가장 높은 저해 활성을 나타냈다. 다음, elastase의 저해 효과를 측정한 결과, 달래 물 추출물($IC_{50}=298.37$ < 대파 $IC_{50}=323.75mg/mL$) < 양파($IC_{50}=367.21mg/mL$) 순으로 달래 물 추출물이 가장 높은 저해 활성을 나타냈다. 마지막으로 가열처리에 의하여 DPPH 라디칼 소거능과 tyrosinase 저해 활성이 일반 실험군보다 더 우수하게 나타났는데, elastase 저해 활성 실험에서는 반대로 가열 처리한 실험군이 일반 실험군보다 현저한 차이로 낮게 나타났다.

This study was conducted to improve the quality of Wanja-jeon, a Korean traditional food utilizing beef. Antioxidative evaluation of the ingredients in Wanja-jeon showed that soybean powder was highest in DPPH, ABTS radical scavenging activities and in reducing power among the food ingredients tested. Since soybean powder demonstrated high antioxidative activity, beef was replaced with soybean powder in Wanja-jeon to increase the antioxidative activity. All antioxidative activities such as DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities as well as reducing power increased with increases in the amount of soybean powder replacing beef. In texture analysis, the hardness, chewiness and brittleness of Wanja-jeon were highest when beef was replaced with 20% soybean powder, whereas the springiness and cohesiveness of the Wanja-jeon were highest with 50% of the beef replaced with soybean powder. The Hunter's color L and b values were highest in Wanja-jeon with 50% soybean powder replacing beef, while the a value of the color was highest in Wanja-jeon with 30% soybean replacing beef.
