This study was conducted to investigate quality characteristics of Aster scaber to increase the value of functional food resources. To examine quality characteristics of Aster scaber, various factors such as color, texture, fiber, minerals, tannin, crude proteins, crude lipids and sensory quality were determined using physiochemical methods. The contents of dietary fiber were 0.68 g in each 100 g of Aster scaber (freeze drying base). In mineral contents, iron was the highest value in Aster scaber (freeze drying base). The contents of tannin were 35.6 ppm of Aster scaber (fresh base). Aster scaber was shown significant difference in tannin from freeze drying leaf. From the results of sensory evaluation, the age of 30's and 40's showed a better acceptability in blanching. Functional healthy drinks were made from extracts of Aster scaber for relieving thirst and promoting health. The recipe of drinks were decided to establish manufacture condition through the sensory evaluation, color, flavor, taste, and overall acceptability. The shelf-life was established in 18 months through quality was analyzed such as soluble solids, optical density 480, pH, acidity and microorganisms.

In this study, we investigated maximum yield of radical scavenging activity (RSA) using each of various extraction solvents and procedure from noni friut (Morinda citrifolia). Noni fruits were either sun-dried (FS) or hot-air dried (FO) at $60^{\circ}C$ after steam blanching. For optimum aqueous extraction, noni fruits should be sun dried and autoclave extraction time should not be over 30 min to produce extraction with high RSA with low cost. In case of 50% ethanol extraction, reflux extracts of FS and FO resulted in $IC_{50}$ of 1.92 mg/mL and 3.06 mg/mL at 8 hr. When $IC_{50}$ values were lower than 5 mg/mL, coefficient of correlation was 0.71 indicating that 71% of the phenolic antioxidants in noni fruits were accounted for the activity by scavenging free DPPH. However, coefficient of correlation significantly decreased to 0.63 over $IC_{50}$ values of 5 mg/mL. Autoclave extraction contained chlorogenic acid of $14.69 \;{\mu}g/mL$ and scopoletin of $3.86 \;{\mu}g/mL$. Reflux extraction showed all three compounds, chlorogenic acid ($26.19 \;{\mu}g/mL$), quercetin ($19.59 \;{\mu}g/mL$), and scopoletin ($17.4 \;{\mu}g/mL$). Therefore, the result of this study indicated that the potential antioxidant activities and functional values were obtained significantly with reflux extraction from noni fruit.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the microbiological quality of, and to assure the hygienic safety of, the kimbap production in the university foodservice facilities in accordance with the HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point) Program. The time-temperature relationship and the microbiological quality (specifically, total plate count and coliform bacteria count) were assessed to find the critical control point (CCP) during each of the production phases. The average of the daily longest duration time of the kimbap at the facilities was 23.4 hours in summer, while 29.6 hours in winter. In the purchasing phase of the raw materials, the microbiological quality of laver, fish paste, carrot and cucumber in summer was not at an acceptable level according to the standard set by the Natick research center, especially the number of TPC and the coliform level of laver was higher than the threshold level. In the refrigerator storage phase, the temperature of the carrot was 7.4$^{\circ}C$. This temperature is far exceeding the standard so that the microbiological counts was increased by the 2 log cycle during the average storage time of 17 hours or more. In the preparation phase, the temperature of the blanching is too low compared to the standard. In the holding phase before serving, its time-temperature relationship was out of the FDA food code standard both in winter and summer. In the sewing phase, the number of microbiological count was higher than the threshold level in summer while that in winter was up to standard. According to the Harrigan and McCance standard, the number of microbiological count of the utensils was higher than the threshold level in summer while that in winter was up to standard.

This study was carried out to estimate the change of Hg content in contaminated food materials including rice grain, soybean sprouts and crucian carp during their washing and cooking processes. The residue level of Hg in contaminated rice at 1 ppm level was decreased to the extent of 24% by three-times washing whereas it was not decreased in cooking. The removal efficiency of Hg in soybean sprouts contaminated at 80 ppm level was about 26% in three-times washing. While the Hg content was not decreased in blanching or cooking of soybean sprouts as a whole, the extent of leached Hg into the fluid part varied in the range of 23-41% depending on the heating time, salinity and volume of cooking water. While the Hg content in fish contaminated at 1 ppm level was not decreased in cooking as a whole, the leaching ratio of Hg into the fluid part was in the range of 2-10% depending on the salinity of cooking water. Disposal of inedible portion in cooked fish could remove 32% of contaminated Hg residue.

To develop a value-added product from individually quick-frozen oysters Crassostrea gigas (IQFO), we prepared a retort pouched oyster soup (RPOS) from IQFOs and characterized its processing conditions and quality metrics. We found that the most appropriate manufacturing process for the RPOS consisted of half-thawing and washing raw IQF oysters, blanching, adding them to the retort pouch along with other ingredients (base soup stock, IQF oyster extract, radish, bean sprouts, garlic, and red pepper), sealing, retort sterilization ($120^{\circ}$, F0-value 10 min.), cooling, and packaging inspection. The moisture, crude protein, pH and salinity of the RPOS were 91.0%, 2.8%, 6.20 and 0.9%, respectively. The total amino acid content of the RPOS was 2,163.8 mg/100 g, and the main amino acids were glutamic acid, aspartic acid, leucine, proline, lysine and arginine. The primary inorganic ions were Na, K, S and Zn. In taste compounds, total free amino acid content was 313.4 mg/100 g, and the main free amino acids were glutamic acid, taurine, proline, hydroxyproline, aspartic acid, glycine, alanine, valine, lysine and arginine. This RPOS has good storage stability and organoleptic qualities compared with commercial retort pouched shellfish soup, and is suitable for commercialization as a value-added instant seafood soup.

This study was conducted to develop semi-solid infant foods using pumpkins. Purees were made from pumpkin and sweet-pumpkin, and were manufactured with blending, steaming or blanching. The moisture content of sweet-pumpkin puree was lower than pumpkin puree, but viscosity, Hunter\`s L, a, b values, $\beta$-carotene and riboflavin contents were higher. Steaming puree from sweet-pumpkin had the highest score in overall-preference and was selected as the ingredient far infant foods. In amylogram, gelatinization temperature was decreased and amylograph viscosity was increased, as the content of modified starch became high. Semi-solid infant floods were prepared with steaming puree from sweet-pumpkin, modified corn starch, rice powder and dairy products such as milk, whole milk powder and skim milk powder. After sterilization of infant foods, Hunter\`s color values were little changed. And the viscosity of infant foods were increased generally, but kept in 3% modified starch group. Sensory evaluation results showed that sweet-pumpkin puree 40%, rice flour 7%, skim milk powder 3% and water 50% was optimum ratio of infant foods.

The quality of guava (Psidium guajava L.) leaves processed using different methods, such as fermentation, steaming, and roasting were investigated. The total phenolics content was highest in the roasted guava leaves. While tyrosinase inhibition and electron donating abilities were highest in steamed guava leaves. The overall palatability showed higher scores in both fermented and steamed guava leaves compared to roasted ones. Upon blanching and steaming of guava leaves, the total phenolics content, tyrosinase inhibition ability, and electron donating ability decreased as the treatment time increased. The overall quality properties were significantly higher in steamed than the blanched samples. The sensory scores, however, were low mainly due to the astringent taste of guava leaves. Thus, it was found that the removal or masking of the astringent taste of guava leaves is of primary concern for their further use.

마늘의 저장 중 생리활성과 향미에 중요한 영향을 미치는 성분의 변화를 발표된 논문을 중심으로 정리하여 살펴보았다. 또한 마늘의 냄새를 최소화하고 생리활성을 극대화할 수 있는 기능성식품의 소재개발 타당성을 살펴보기 위하여 열처리(blanching)로 마늘 중의 효소를 모두 불활성화 시킨 후, 이에 마늘로부터 추출한 alliinase를 가하여 반응조건에 따른 alk(en)yl thiosulfinates 생성 및 이들의 분해산물인 휘발성 황함유화합물의 함량변화를 측정하였다. 수확한 마늘의 최종 저장물질로 알려진 -glutamyl-S-alk(en)yl-L-cysteines는 마늘중에 존재하는 -glutamyl-transpeptidase 및 oxidase의 작용에 의하여 감소한 반면 S-alk(en)yl cysteine sulfoxide는 감소한 만큼 증가하였으며, 이는 $-3^{\circ}C$ 및 실온($23^{\circ}C$)에서 보다도 냉장온도($4^{\circ}C$)에서 가장 많이 변화하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 감소 및 증가현상은 -glutamyl-S-(2-popenyl)-L-cysteine이 -glutamyl-S-(trans-1-propenyl)-L- cysteine이나 -glutamyl-S-methyl-L-cysteine보다 더 컸다. -glutamyl-S-(2-propen yl)-L-cysteine은 $4^{\circ}C$에서 저장 60일 만에 66%가 감소한 반면 이로부터 생성된 S-(2- popenyl)-L-cysteine sulfoxide는 그 만큼 증가하였다. -glutamyl-S-(trans-1-propenyl)-L-cysteine 및 -glutamyl-S-methyl-L-cysteine도 $4^{\circ}C$에서 150일간 저장한 경우 각각 81% 및 39%가 감소하고, 이들로부터 각각 생성된 S-(trans-1- propenyl)-L-cysteine sulfoxides 및 S-methyl-L-cysteine sulfoxide는 증가하였다. 한편 열처리 마늘에 alliinase를 가하여 함황화합물을 재생성 시킨 결과 8종의 S-alk(en)yl cysteine sulfoxides를 확인할 수 있었다. S-(2-propenyl)-L-cysteine sulfoxide은 전체 thiosulfinates함량의 약 60%를 차지하는 것으로 나타났다. 100, 200, 300 및 400 unit의 alliinase를 첨가하여 15분간 반응시킨 결과 총 thiosulfinates는 생마늘(대조구)에 비하여 각각 37, 68, 77 및 80%가 생성되는 것으로 나타났다. GC/MSD를 이용하여 대조구 및 효소를 첨가하여 반응시킨 시료의 휘발성 향기성분을 분석한 결과 alliinase를 100, 200, 300 및 400 unit 첨가하여 15분간 반응시키면 각각 마늘의 휘발성 향기성분이 25, 36, 66및 76% 씩 재 생성되는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 종합해 볼 때 마늘을 이용한 제품개발이나 연구를 할 경우 마늘의 저장조건에 따른 생리활성물질의 분석결과를 근거로 하여 이루어져야 하며, 또한 효소를 이용하여 적절히 반응시키면 마늘 냄새를 $30{\sim}80%$ 범위 내에서 조절이 가능한 것으로 나타났다.
