This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary supplementation of fermented apple pomace (FAP) and cinnamon on laying performance, egg quality and blood characteristics in laying hens. A total of two hundred 57-wk-old Hy-Line laying hens were divided into five groups with 4 replicates of 10 birds each; control, 0.1% probiotics, 1.0% fermented apple pomace 1.0%, 0.1% cinnamon and 1.0% fermented apple pomace with 1.0% cinnamon. Chickens fed the diets containing 1.0% of fermented apple pomace showed higher egg production than the chickens fed the other diets. No synergic effect on laying performance was found when fermented apple pomace and cinnamon were added to the diets in laying hens. There was no significant major differences in egg quality and serum blood biochemical profiles. These results suggest the possibility that fermentation of apple pomace could be used as the alternative of antibiotic growth promoters.

This study examined the optimization of alcohol extraction conditions for maximizing the total polyphenols derived from apple pomace, by response surface methodology (RSM). The effects of four independent variables, including $X_1$ (ratio of solvent to sample content), $X_2$ (dipping time), $X_3$ (extraction time), and $X_4$(extraction temperature), were investigated at five levels using central composite design (CCD). $Y_1$ (yield) and $Y_2$ (total polyphenols) were chosen as dependent variables. The coefficients of determination, $R^2$, were greater than 0.900 (0.9042 and 0.9555). The results showed that the model fit was very significant (p<0.001). The optimum extraction conditions were as follows: 13.00 mL/g for the ratio of solvent to sample content, 89.02 min for dipping time, 180 min for extraction time, and $70^{\circ}C$ for extraction temperature. At these conditions, the predicted total polyphenol content was 29.68 mg catechin equiv./g.

A study was made to investigate the possibility of treating various organic waste of cattle manure, swine manure, goat manure, apple pomace, chinese medicine residue and coffee less by feeding these to earthworms and then by studying the growth and reproductive efficiency of earthworms, and the chemical composition of worm cast and its production. The results are summarized as follows. 1. When the feed for earthworms were in good condition which were cattle manure, swine manure and apple pomace, the reproductive efficiency of earthworms was improved however in worse condition the feed of which were goat manure and chinese medicine residue, the increasing rate(IR) became faster. 2. Despite the high content of organic matter(OM) in coffee lees, the earthworms fed coffee lees showed significantly lower reproductive efficiency and increasing rate(IR) than those fed other organic waste due mainly to its lower pH and lower total nitrogen(TN) content. Therefore, when coffee lees is considered to be fed to earthworms, it is believed necessary to be mixed with addiveves or other organic waste in order to improve the feed condition. 3. pH in swine manure, goat manure, apple pomace, chinese medicine residue and coffee lees became neutralized by being fed by earthworms. 4. Available P2O5 and exchangeable cation(EC) of earthworm cast were a little increased compared to those of feed. The contents of Mn, Fe and Cu in earthworm cast were a little decreased to compared to those of feed. 5. The contents of Mn, Fe and Cu in earthworm cast were a little a decreased to compared to those of feed. 6. Mean fresh weight of earthworm at final time(FW2) was negatively correlated with number of young worms(NY)(P<0.01), but positively with increasing rate(IR) (P<0.001) and C/N ratio(P<0.05) respectively. Number of cocoons (NC) and fresh weight of cocoons(WC) were positively(P<0.01) correlated with fresh weight of young worms (WY) and digested matter(DI) but negatively(P<0.001) correlated with residual matter(WY) and digested matter(DI) but negatively(P<0.001) correlated with residual matter(RW). Number of young worms(NY) and fresh weigh of young worms(WY) were negatively(P<0.001) correlated with increasing rate(IR), however increasing rate(IR) of earthworm was positively(P<0.05) correlatedd with C/N ratio.

This study was performed to analyze the retarded degree of Garaetteok retrogradation added with different ratios 0-15% (w/w) of apple pomace dietary fiber powder (DFP). SEM (${\times}$500) showed that air cell size on the Garaetteok surface increased as DFP content increased, whereas control had a compact structure without air cells. The degrees of Garaetteok retrogradation after 3 days at 4 and 25$^{\circ}C$ by ${\alpha}$-amylase iodine method were 57.44 and 41.55% for control, respectively. On the other hand, those of 15% DFP Garaetteok were 28.38 and 15.05%, respectively. Enthalpy changes (${\Delta}$E) by DSC of control, 10 and 20% DFP Garaetteok after 3 days of storage at 4$^{\circ}C$ were 4.41, 4.17, and 3.80 J/g, respectively, whereas those at 25$^{\circ}C$ were 2.14, 1.04, and 0.72 J/g. Hardness of 15% DFP Garaetteok was around 48% compared to that of control after 3 days of storage at 25$^{\circ}C$. Increasing DFP content from 0 to 15% decreased L color value from 86.2 to 55.1, whereas a and b values increased from -1.9 to 8.9 and from 5.3 to 20.8, respectively. In a sensory intensity test, hardnesses of 15% DEP Garaetteok were significantly different at 1 and 0.1% compared to those of control after production and followed by storage for 3 days at 4$^{\circ}C$, respectively.

In order to overcome same disadvantages of acidic solubilization of pectin from apple pomace, enzymatic selective solubilization with exo-polygalacturonase was developed. According to analyses of the effects of temperature, pH and reaction time on extraction yield, the maximum yield by the enzymatic method, shown under the extraction condition of $45^{\circ}C$, pH 7 and 60 hours, was 31.0%, whereas the yield from an acidic method was 8%. Also the quality of pectin extracted by the enzymatic method was to that from acidic solubilization. The purity and methoxyl content of enzyme-extracted pectin were 80.1% and 6.36%, respectively, which were higher than 75.7% and 2.44% of acid-solubilized pectin. Viscosity average molecular weights of enzymic extracted and acid solubilized pectins were $1.50{\times}10^4\;and\;7.66{\times}10^4$, respectively.

Addition of the treated dietary fiber sources to wheat flour were generally decreased at Amylograph viscosity as the mixing ratio increased. Addition of the treated dietary fiber sources on the preparation of noodles increased weight and volume of cooked noodles but decreased extention force as the mixing ratio increased. The sensory test of the dietary fiber sources mixed noodles supplemented by treated soymilk residue 5% was excellent sensual properties. The properties of the dietary fiber sources mixed noodles supplemented by treated soymilk residue 10% and treated apple pomace 5% were nearly the same in the texture organoleptic properties compared with those of wheat flour noodle.

As the world population growth and economy develops, the importance of eco-friendly organic waste resource treatment and up-cycling increases. Black soldier fly (BSF) (Hermetia illucens) treats organic waste resources that allows it to be recycled as a feed resource. In this study, we analyzed the nutrients composition, amino acid, and fatty acids of BSF larvae fed three agricultural by-products, namely apple pomace, mandarin waste, and oriental melon waste (mainly generated in South Korea). The highest BSF larvae crude protein and amino acid content was obtained in those fed mandarin waste compared with the other two diets (apple pomace and oriental melon waste). BSF larvae fed apple pomace had the highest crude fat, fatty acid, and lauric acid content compared with the other BSF larvae. Furthermore, all crude protein and fat content of BSF larvae fed the three agricultural by-products exceed that of the original agricultural by-products.

This study was performed to search a physical method having high yield and quality and minimum environmental pollution for extraction of pectin from apple pomace. Based on the physical solubilization of plant cell wall under the condition of high temperature, pressure and shearing stress, apple pomace was treated by a corotating intermeshing type twin-screw extruder with the diameter-to-length ratio of 1/20. The specific mechanical energy of extruder was introduced as system parameter for extrusion process modeling and the shaft speed, feed rate and moisture content as process variables. The yield, average molecular weight and galacturonic acid content of water-soluble polysaccharides obtained by extrusion were, respectively, modeled with the linear functions of the system parameter which was of the form as a linear function of process variables. The specific mechanical energy increased with increase of shaft speed and with decrease of feed rate and moisture content. Out of process variables, moisture content had the greatest effect on specific mechanical energy. The yield increased with increase of specific mechanical energy while the average molecular weight and galacturonic acid content increased with its decrease. In aspects of yield and quality of pectin, the results from this study showed the possibility to replace a traditional acidic method with the extrusion treatment of this study.
