This study was performed to develop a liquid flavoring material from Tenebrio molitor larva by using Aspergillus oryzae. T. molitor with 1% A. oryzae for 48 hours yielded the highest protease activity. Different salt concentrations and rice flour addition affected the fermentation characteristics for 90 days. LN (low salt, rice flour non-addition) yielded high protease activity, and total nitrogen and amino-type nitrogen contents. LN showed Glu accounting to 15.16% of the free amino acids and yielded high scores of sweet and savory taste, and overall acceptance after 90 days. Rice flour addition group showed high content of total and reducing sugars with high amylase activity, however, low salt concentration had more effect on sensory acceptance than rice flour addition had (p<0.05). All samples had total acidity <1% and LN (90) showed the highest browning index and aroma intensity, as noted from maillard reaction, as well as good sensory acceptance.

Soong-Neung is a Korean traditional beverage served after meals and is made from cooked and roasted rice produced on the bottom of the container during the rice cooking process. The volatiles from the extract of cooked and roasted rice were separated into pyrazine and carbonyl fractions and qualitatively investigated. The pyrazine fraction was characterized by gas chromatography and combined gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and five pyrazines were positively identified. Pyrazine compounds identified are 2-methylpyrazine, 2,3-dimethylpyrazine, 2,5-dimethylpyrazine, 2-ethyl-5-methylpyrazine and 2-ethyl-3-methylpyrazine. Carbonyls were converted to their 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazones and identified by gas chromatography, combined gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and thin layer chromatography. Acetaldehyde, propionaldehyde, iso-butyraldehyde and iso-valeraldehyde were positively identified in the carbonyl compounds. The aroma of the fractions indentified as 2,3-dimethylpyrazine and 2,5-dimethylpyrazine had a nut-like or roasted cereal-like flavor, which is one of the characteristic flavors of Soong-Neung.

The new version of sikhye(sweet rice drink) was prepared by adding sweet pumpkin (SP) in order to improve customers' preferences for sikhye by modifying the color, and flavor, as well as health functionality. The independent variables were sweet pumpkin amount(0, 2, 4, 6, and 8% malt powder extract) and storage periods(0, 3, 6, 9, and 12 days). Each sample was measured by using physicochemical and sensory evaluations, and results were statistically tested to examine significant differences among samples. pH increased with higher amounts of added pumpkin. As additional levels of sweet pumpkin increased, the Hunter's L value decreased, whereas the b value increased. In a consumer acceptance test, all characteristics except for sweetness were significantly different at p<0.05. The overall acceptability, including yellowness, malt aroma, and sweetness in the pumpkin added sample was estimated to be better than the comparative sample was. There was no significant difference between SP4, SP6, and SP8, but SP2 showed a lower preference than other samples.

This study was performed to determine the optimal composition of a makgeolli administered nuruk, water and Asparagus cochinchinensis. The experiment was designed base on BBD (box-behnken design), and an evaluation was carried out by means of RSM (response surface methodology), which included 15 experimental points with 3 replicates for the three independent variables nuruk, water and Asparagus cochinchinensis. The nuruk levels were tested in a range of 10~30 g, the water levels in a range 120~180% and Asparagus cochinchinensis was tested within a range of 2~6% by the weight of cooked-rice. Using the F-test, brix and appearance were expressed as a linear model, whereas the pH, acidity, DPPH radical scavenging, L-value, savory taste, taste, fresh aroma, after swallow and overall acceptability were expressed as a quadratic model. Increased amount of Asparagus cochinchinensis led to the reduction of the sensory scores for appearance, flavor, taste, texture and overall quality. The optimum formulation by numerical and graphical method were similar: nuruk 24.50 g, water 174.95% and Asparagus cochinchinensis 2.40%.

19 Samples of koji-starters using in brewing were collected from Korea and Japan, and then 31 strains of koji-molds were isolated from them. After Identification of the Isolate, rice koji was made with each strains, and its saccharogenic activity, dextrogenic activity, proteolytic activity, acid Producing ability, browning reaction and flavor were tested. Among 31 strains of isolates, 10 strains were Identified as Asp nwamori var. kawachii, 18 strains as Asp. oryzae, 3 strains as Asp. usamii mkt. shirousamii. The koji-starters made in Korea were composed of single species of koji-mold with same strain, but those made in Japan were composed of the mixture of different two species or the mixture of different 2 ∼4 strains in same species. Judging from amylolytic and proteolytic ability by species, Asp. awamori var. kawachii H1, I1 and 11, Asp. owsae J2, L2, M2, P3 and P4, and Asp. usamii writ. shirousamii S1 were better than the others. Mold strains isolated from Korean koji-starters were much lower in amylolytic or proteolytic activity than those from Japanese koji-starters. The typical characteristics for the 3 species of koji-molds were that Asp. awamori var. kawachii was strong in acid producing ability, but week in amylolytic and proteolytic ability, that Asp. owzae had strong amylolytic activity and good aroma, but produced little amount of acid, and that Asp. usamii mut. shirousamii had strong Proteolytic activity but some off-flavor.

Lao-chao is a traditional Chinese fermented rice product with a sweet and fruity flavor, containing high levels of glucose, a little alcohol and milk-clotting characteristics. In order to optimize commercial production of lao-chao, Rhizopus javanicus and Saccharomyces cerevisiae were selected as the mold and yeast starter, respectively. A commercial mixed starter (chiu-yao) was used as control. Fermentation of the experimental combination revealed a sharp drop in pH (to 4.5) on the fourth day, remaining constant thereafter. Content of reducing sugars gradually decreased throughout the entire fermentation period. Of the free amino acids, higher quantities of alanine, leucine, proline, glutamic acid, glutamine and $NH_3$ were noted. For sugars, glucose revealed the highest concentration, while organic acid levels, including those for oxalic, lactic, citric and pyroglutamic acid, increased throughout the fermentation period. Twenty-one compounds were identified by gas chromatography from aroma concentrates of the lao-chao culture filtrate, prepared using the headspace method. For the flavor components, higher quantities of ethanol, fusel oil and ester were determined in both culture filtrates. In regard to the evaluation of yogurt-like product, there were significant differences in alcoholic smell, texture and curd firmness.

An ecological survey of early childhood nutrition and parasitic infection was undertaken among 102 children aged 3 to 6 atteending the three day care centers of Hongcheon county Kangwon province between June and July 1987. In frequency of skipping meal 35.1% of subjects often skipped breakfast ; 3.1% skipped breakfast every day. About 53% of those children complained of having poor appetite at breakfast. The percentage of children having meals with all the family members was 94.8% for breakfast and 97.9% for evening meal. In eatinf behavior 20.6% of the subjects had meals while watching TV; 21.6% moved around during a meal ; 22.1% hadmeal talking loudly ; 35.1% had quiet meal. Approximately 63% of children used chopsticks and others used fork or spork. Concerning of dietary staple boiled rice was dominant. The diversity of food selection by those children was so linmited that simply only one or two items of side-dishes and /or souop were taken at home. Subjects liked yorgurt milk lavers fruits and Ramyun in contrast to the loweest preference for fermented fist aroma-tic vegetables butter and margarine. The positive prevealence of parasitic infection was 35.5% including than that observed in any other rural areas. Incidence of Fibricola seoulenis was caused by local habit of eating hibernate frogs without enough boiling.
