This study sought to determine the physicochemical and sensory qualities of yogurt dressing prepared with different levels Aronia juice(0, 10, 20, 30, and 40%). As the amount of added Aronia juice increased, malic acid, acetic acid, and citric acid contents increased, although tartaric acid and lactic acid contents decreased. The viscosity of the control group(4,296.67 cP) was higher than those of the other groups(1,466.67~3,496.67 cP). The pH of the yogurt dressing containing 10% Aronia juice(3.83) was higher than those of the other groups(3.59~3.74). The sweetness of the yogurt dressing containing 10% Aronia juice($5.17^{\circ}Brix$) was higher than the other groups($2.47{\sim}3.47^{\circ}Brix$). Lightness decreased significantly, whereas a value and b value increased significantly with added levels of Aronia juice. DPPH radical scavenging activity of the control group was 7.42%, whereas those of the yogurt dressing samples with Aronia juice ranged from 26.30-69.86%. The sensory property results showed that the 20% Aronia juice added yogurt dressing group had the highest value in terms of color, thickness, taste, mouth feel, and overall acceptability. Overall, the results of this study indicates that the yogurt dressing containing 20% Aronia juice was the most preferred among the groups.

The objective of this study is to investigate the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of yanggaeng prepared with different amounts of aronia juice. Aronia juice was incorporated into yanggaeng at different levels (containing 50, 100, and 150 g of aronia juice in AJ 50, AJ 100, and AJ 150, respectively) based on the total weight of water. Total acidity and sugar contents showed a significant increase, however, pH showed a decrease with increasing levels of aronia juice. Hardness also showed an increase with increasing levels of aronia juice. Regarding texture profile analysis, hardness, springiness, and chewiness of yanggaeng were increased, however, cohesiveness was similar compared to the control and aronia juice added treatments. In chromaticity determination, L and b values showed a decrease, however, a value increased with increasing levels of aronia juice. The total polyphenols, flavonoids, and anthocyanin contents were increased proportionally with increasing levels of aronia juice. Antioxidant activity measured by DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities were significantly higher than those of control and increased proportionally according to the concentration of aronia juice. The sensory evaluation indicated that AJ 100 showed the best preference in color, taste, texture, flavor, and overall acceptance. These results suggest that aronia juice may be a useful ingredient in yanggaeng for improvement of quality and antioxidant potential.

This study investigates the quality characteristics of sweet persimmon jam added with aronia juice. Sweet persimmon jam was prepared with sweet persimmon, sugar, pectin and various amounts (20, 40, 60, 80%) of aronia juice, and it was assessed for pH, total acidity, color, sensory evaluation and hydrogen donating ability on 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging effects and content of the total polyphenols, respectively. Increasing the amount of aronia juice decreased the pH, whereas the total acidity gradually increased. In addition, with an increased amount of aronia juice, the lightness (L) and yellowness (b) significantly decreased, while redness (a) gradually increased. By increasing the amount of aronia juice, the polyphenol contents, DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities were increased. The results of the sensory evaluation showed that the sweet persimmon jam added with 80% aronia juice had the highest overall-acceptability scores. The results suggest enhancing the quality, palatability and acceptability of sweet persimmon jam by adding 60~80% of aronia juice.
