In this study, we applied a steam treatment to black sesame to determine the optimum treatment conditions, and also examined the antioxidant effects and quality characteristics. For black sesame gruels, roasting can be used in a variety of ways in cooking to enhance functionality and preference. We found that the solid content increased with the addition of 70% steamed black sesame in the glutinous rice-black sesame gruel samples, and for glutinous black rice-black sesame gruels, solid content was highest with the addition of 50% steamed black sesame. For the chromaticity, the L-value decreased as the addition of steamed black sesame increased in all the black sesame gruels made with the steamed black sesame. With regard to texture, the cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess, chewiness, and adhesiveness of the gruels made with steamed black sesame were highest when 60% steamed black sesame was added. The results of the sensory test showed that overall preference was highest for the glutinous rice-black sesame gruel made with 60% steamed black sesame, while the glutinous brown rice-black sesame gruels were preferred with 60% and 70% additions, and the glutinous black rice-black sesame gruel was deemed best with 60% steamed black sesame. The most appropriate ratios of steamed black sesame in the black sesame gruels, with regard to overall quality, are as follows: 60% steamed black sesame for the glutinous rice-black sesame gruel, 60% and 70% steamed black sesame for the glutinous brown rice-black sesame gruel, and 60% steamed black sesame for the glutinous black rice-black sesame gruel.

the purpose of this paper is to study on the proximate composition, mineral and saponin content in white sesame, black sesame, and perilla seed. For this purpose, we have compared six different materials: white-raw-sesame, white-roast-sesame, black-raw-sesame, black-roast-sesame, raw-perilla seed and roast perilla seed, and have come to the following results. The crude fat content was the highest in white-raw-sesame(55.3%). In all the six samples, the crude fat content in raw seeds was all higher than that in roast seeds. The crude protein content was the highest in the roast perilla seed(24.6%), and in the six samples, the crude protein content in roast seeds all higher than that in roast seeds. The total sugar content was found to be the highest in the roast perilla seed(8.29%). The reducing sugar content was higher in raw perilla seed(1.57%) than in other sample materials. The ash content was the highest in black raw-sesame(5.93%), and that percentage rates was the same as that of FAO and of Japan. Minerals like Cd. Mn. Cu. Na. Mg. Pb. and Ca. were found to be contained more in black sesame than in other sample materials. The minerals contained most in white sesame were Zn.(61.6ppm) and Fe(49.4ppm), and K was contained a little more in perilla seed than in the others. The sample materials which contain saponin most were white-roast-sesame(0.34%) and black-roast-sesame(029%).

In this study, we found that the moisture content of black sesame seeds increased in proportion to steaming time, and it decreased in reverse proportion to the roasting temperature and time. The crude fat and crude ash contents were shown to be in the order of steamed black sesame>raw black sesame and roasted black sesame>raw black sesame, Crude protein decreased in reverse proportion to the steaming time, and more crude protein was found in the raw black sesame samples than in the roasted black sesame samples. The contents of sesamin, sesamolin, and total lignans were shown to be in the order of roasted black sesame>raw black sesame>steamed black sesame. In the steamed black sesame samples, sesamin showed its highest level with 20 minutes of treatment, and sesamolin showed its highest level with 15 minutes of treatment. In the roasted black sesame samples, sesamin, sesamolin, and total lignans showed their highest levels with 15 minutes of treatment at $100^{\circ}C$. The phenolic compound content increased in proportion to steaming time in the steamed samples, and reached a peak after 15 minutes of treatment at $100^{\circ}C$, and then decreased after 20 minutes. SOD-like activity reached a peak after 15 minutes of treatment, and in the roasted sample it reached a peak after 15 minutes of treatment, and then decreased after 20 minutes. SOD-like activity was comparatively lower than tocopherol and higher than sesamol. The intensity of electron donating ability, following 30 minute treatments, was shown to be highest in the steamed black sesame samples after 25 minutes of treatment, and next highest in the roasted black sesame samples after 15 minutes at $100^{\circ}C$. The electron donating ability was comparatively lower than tocopherol and sesamol. With regard to lecithin's antioxidant effects, the steamed samples showed a higher oxidation restriction rate in proportion to time, and the roasted samples showed the highest rate after 15 minutes of treatment, and then decreased after 20 minutes of treatment. for hydroxyl radical scavenging, similar scavenging activity to tocopherol, and comparatively higher scavenging activity than sesamol, was shown in all samples: all samples showed scavenging abilities of 90% or higher. In summary, this study applied three different treatment methods to black sesame to determine the optimum treatment conditions, and also examined the antioxidant effects and functional characteristics. The results showed that roasting can be used for other purposes than producing oil, and also suggested that methods other than roasting can be used in a variety of ways in cooking. Also, the different treatment methods can be applied in cooking in a variety of ways, to enhance functionality and preference.

Oxidative stabilities of sesame oil prepared from black sesame flour and white sesame flour, and commercial sesame oil prepared from whole white sesame were compared by measuring oxidation induction periods, peroxide values and electron donating abilities of each oil. Oxidation induction period (12.25 hr) of sesame oil prepared from black sesame flour was longer than those (4.37 and 9.1 hr, respectively) of sesame oil from white sesame flour and commercial sesame oil. Peroxide values of sesame oil prepared from black sesame flour, sesame oil prepared from white sesame flour and commercial sesame oil were 1.3, 18.2 and 1.7 meq/kg oil, respectively. We ascertained that the oxidative stability of sesame oil prepared from black sesame flour was superior than sesame oil from white sesame flour as well as ommercial sesame oil. This was based on the fact that electron donating ability of sesame oil prepared from black sesame flour was 9% higher than that of sesame oil prepared from white sesame flour at the same concentration. The superior oxidative stability of sesame oil prepared from black sesame flour was expected, not only because only it had lignans such as sesamol and sesamolin, but also because of its brownish coloring compounds such as tannin which were not contained in white sesame flour.

Although lignans of sesame seed, sesamolin and sesamin have been known as possessing an antioxidant activity, it is less known about their contents of the sesame cultivated in Korea. Collections of sesame cultivated in Korea were used for studies on their lignans content of the seed and fatty acids composition of the oil. The sesamin content of sesame seed with white-coat were 370.29 mg/100g seed, while that of sesame seed with black-coat were 246.58mg/100g seed. Also, the sesamolin contents of sesame seed were 202.22 mg/100g seed in white-coat cultivars and 132.68 mg/100g seed in black-coat sesames. Hence, the lignan content of white-coat sesame cultivars was significantly hi임or than that of black-coat ones. Korean sesame cultivars also showed considerably higher sesamin content than sesamolin content in seeds. The correlation between sesamin and sesamolin contents was not recognized in Korean sesame cultivars. The stearic acid of white-coat sesame was significantly higher than that of black-coat one (p＜0.05).

This study was to investigated optimum preparation conditions for Gugija Heukimja jook by response surface methodology (RSM). The important materials used for the Gugija Heukimja product were Lycium chinese, Seasamum indicum L., Ziziphus jujuba Mill. and rice. Moisture content, crude protein, crude fat, crude ash and crude fiber content were 15.62, 16.60, 13.62, 4.93 and 11.17% for Lycium chinese, 3.62, 20.94, 43.56, 5.67 and 10.72% for Seasamum indicum L., 24.12, 5.38, 0.73, 2.30 and 1.25% for Ziziphus jujuba Mill., and 12.36, 6.98, 0.46, 0.43 and 0.41% for rice, respectively. Optimal extraction conditions of brix, color, pH and total acidity in the materials for Gugija Heukimja jook were temperature $80^{\circ}C$, water volume 850 mL and extraction time of 63 min. The spreadability of jook with Lycium chinese and Ziziphus jujuba Mill. extracts was the highest when black sesame was 12 g pH was the lowest when black sesame was 9 g. PH showed a significant difference when the added black sesame ratio changed. The 'value L' of chromaticity was lower with an increase of the black sesame ratio, 'value a' was higher with an increase of the black sesame ratio, 'value b' was lower with an increase of the black sesame ratio. Brix was lower when black sesame in jook was added. Total acidity was highest (7.27%) when black sesame was 12 g. The degree of gelatinization tended to be lower with additional black sesame. Higher scores of sensory evaluation were found for the product containing 9 g black sesame with Lycii furctus and Ziziphus jujuba Mill. extracts ompared to the other samples with 3 and 6g. No significant difference in taste occurred for Gugija Heukimja jook prepared with over 9 g black sesame, while a great difference showed in color, pH and total acid. Therefore, the Gugija Heukimja jook prepared under the optimal conditions of 9 g black sesame with Lycium chinese and Ziziphus jujuba Mill. extracts exhibited higher qualities. Gugija Heukimja jook can use the easier for Yacksun jook. It is expected to become functional in the product's development.

This study investigated the quality characteristics and antioxidant effects of black sesame gruel made with different concentrations of 15 minutes of treatment at $100^{\circ}C$ roasted black sesame. Total lignans showed the highest levels with 15 minutes of treatment at $100^{\circ}C$ roasted black sesame. With regard to lecithin's antioxidant effects, 15 minutes of treatment at $100^{\circ}C$ roasted black sesame showed a higher oxidation restriction rate. Hydroxyl radical scavenging, a similar scavenging activity to tocopherol, and a comparatively higher scavenging activity than sesamol, was shown with 15 minutes of treatment at $100^{\circ}C$ roasted black sesame and showed scavenging abilities of 90% and higher. For black sesame gruels, roasting can be used in a variety of ways in cooking in order to enhance functionality and preference. The most appropriate ratios of $100^{\circ}C$, 15minutes roasted black sesame in black sesame gruels, with regard to the overall quality characteristics, are as follows: The results of the sensory test showed that the overall preference was highest for glutinous rice-black sesame gruel, glutinous brown rice-black sesame gruel, and glutinous black rice-black sesame gruel, which were deemed best with 50% black sesame. From the above results, it could be seen that glutinous rice, glutinous brown rice, and glutinous black rice black sesame gruels, which are made by adding 50% roasted black sesame, contributed to enhancing the function of antioxidant activation and development quality.

This study was carried out to investigate the quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of the black sesame Dasikadded spirulina (0, 10, 20, 30%). Black sesame Dasik with 30% spirulina showed a higher moisture content compared to control. L, a and b values of Hunter color system were decreased significantly according to the addition of spirulina (p<0.05). Hardness and gumminess analyzed by TPA (Texture profile analyzer) were increased significantly according to the addition of spirulina (p<0.05). The antioxidant property of black sesame Dasik increased according to the addition of spirulina: IC50 values of DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) and hydroxyl radical scavenging activity of the control was 112.3 g/mL and 56.2 mg/mL, respectively, whereas those of Dasik with 30% addition of spirulina was 58.2 mg/mL and 45.7 mg/mL, respectively. Sensory evaluation results showed that the overall acceptability was not significantly different up to 20% addition of spirulina, compared to that of the control. Based on these results, it was suggested that the addition of spirulina to black sesame Dasik was appropriated up to 20% for quality improvement with antioxidant activity.
