In this study, consumers' perception and consumption behavior of blended tea were investigated. Also, consumer perception of Siberian chrysanthemum, consumption behavior, and awareness of efficacy were investigated. As a result of the survey, it was confirmed that it was necessary to develop a blended tea with taste and flavor characteristics that consumers prefer, having the capability of relieving stress, and preventing cold or respiratory disease. In addition, the degree of recognition of Siberian chrysanthemum was very low, and the recognition of the efficacy appeared in the order of 'cold relief' and 'respiratory disease relief'. Factor analysis results, safety attributes, health attributes, product attributes, marketing attributes, and sensory attributes were factorized into five factors, and after analysis, it was concluded that the sensory attributes of taste and aftertaste were considered the most important. Consumers surveyed appeared to consume blended tea for 'relieving mood or stress relief', to enjoy the taste, and to prevent cold or respiratory diseases. Siberian chrysanthemum displays efficacy in cold relief and relief of respiratory diseases. Therefore, developing Siberian chrysanthemum as a blended tea could be a practical application that can expand the range of its use, making it more popular and increase its commercial applications.

The purpose of this study was to characterize the aroma of green tea blended with dried citrus fruits containing peeler. Whether middle or low grade green tea is consumed does not have an influence on health benefits, but it does havean influence on flavor. Therefore, two kinds of citrus fruits (mandarin orange and citron) were used to infuse the teas with aromatic flavors. This process turned unflavored tea into special tea with a good color and preferable flavor. Aroma compounds were extracted by SDE method. The concentrated aroma extracts were analyzed and identified by GC and GC-MS. The main aroma components of the green tea blended with mandarin orange were limonene (72.18%), (Z)-ocimene (8.29%), phenyl acetaldehyde (6.15%), ${\gamma}$-terpinene (5.14%), ${\beta}$-elemene (1.80%) and linalool (1.00%). The main aroma components of the green tea blended with citron were limonene (71.74%), ${\gamma}$-terpinene (9.76%), (Z)-ocimene (5.38%), (E)-ocimene (4.36%), linalool (1.00%) and ${\beta}$-mycrene (0.87%). The aromas of green tea blended with dried citrus fruits were mainly mono - and sesquiterpenic compounds.

While manufacturing blended tea, the temperature for pan-firing Rhus verniciflua seed (RVS) is important. The pan-firing duration was fixed to 15 minutes according to a sensory test. We then prepared four types of blended teas with varied ratios of RVS; all the four types showed similar pH, $^{\circ}Bx$, and hunter's color values with no significant difference. According to the sensory test, A-type tea blended with RVS was the most preferred. The antioxidant activity of A-type blended tea was evaluated during storage. The changes in the total polyphenol, total flavonoid, and antioxidant activity by DPPH and ABTS assays were monitored during storage at 4, 25, and $40^{\circ}C$ for 28 days. After 28 days of storage, values for total polyphenol content, total flavonoid content, and antioxidant activity were similar to the initial values. Moreover, microbial growth was not observed during that period.

To produce a new tea with a good flavor and functional properties using green tea of low quality, naked barley and barley were selected to blend with the green tea. The simultaneous distillation extraction method (SDE) using Likens and Nickerson's extraction apparatus was used to extract the volatile flavor compounds from the samples. The concentrated flavor extracts were analyzed and identified by GC and GC-MS. The GC patterns of the flavor components in two parched barleys were very different. The main volatile flavor components in two of the samples were alkyl pyrazines. Compounds including 3-methylbutanal, 2-methylbutanal, dihydro-2-methyl-3(2H)-furanone, 2,5-dimethyl pyrazine, and 3-ethyl-2.5-dimethyl pyrazine were isolated from the naked barley. Compounds including thiophenes, thiazoles, sulfides, and pyrroles with burnt odor were isolated from the barley. The parched naked barley was better than barley for adding to green tea. The main aroma components of the green tea blended with the naked barley were hexanol, hexanal, trans-2-hexenal, ${\beta}$-ionone, ${\alpha}$-ionone, alkyl pyrazines, 3-methylbutanal, 2-methylbutanal, and furfural.

This study was conducted to investigate the cooking properties of noodles made from composite flour blended with green tea powder. As the ratio of green tea powder increased, development time was longer than that of the control. The stability of dough showed higher value than the control except 2% addition group. The highest viscosity was at the 4% addition group. but 2% addition group showed the lowest viscosity. As the additional ratio of green tea powder was increased. the volume expansion ratio was increased, but water soluble solid matters contents in all addition groups had a lower level than that of the control. Also, the yellowness level of noodle was increased, but the brightness, redness and color and flavor acceptability was decreased, as the additional ratio was increased. However. 2~4% addition group of green tea powder had a similar acceptability profile to that of the control group.

This study aimed to determine the microbiological quality obtained by adding green tea extracts to prepare cook-chill foods. For this study, chicken meat salad was blended with green tea extracts at concentrations of 0, 2 and $3\%$ and prepared for a cook-chill system. The microbiological effects of green tea extracts were assessed during the production process by measuring process time, temperature, pH and Aw and by determining total plate counts and coliforms. The effects of green tea extracts on total plate counts and coliforms were observed during cold storage at $3^{\circ}C$ for five days. Green tea extracts improved the microbiological quality and showed antibacterial properties when added to chicken meat salad prepared in a cook-chill production system. The use of green tea extracts should be further explored as a means of enhancing freshness and quality in cook-chill foods.

Objectives: Antibiotics help treat Vaginitis, and prolonged usage of antibiotics can lead to resistance. Methods: This study investigates the antimicrobial activity of two types of lactic acid bacteria using essential oils. After cultivation by adding grapefruit seed extract (GSE), eucalyptus, tea tree, clove bud, cinnamon, lemongrass, thyme, and ginger oils in a specific ratio, pathogenic microorganisms, namely E. coli, C. albicans, and lactic acid bacteria were released. The number of bacteria was measured using a medium suitable for the strains. Results: The essential oils and GSE inhibited pathogenic microorganisms, and the inhibitory concentration of GSE against pathogenic bacteria (E. coli, C. albicans) was confirmed. The non-inhibitory mixing ratio was also confirmed (50 μl of eucalyptus globulus (EG) oil and 50 μl of melaleuca alternifolia oil (tea tree oil, TTO) at 200 ppm GSE (pH 5.0, 5.5, 6.0)). Conclusion: Essential oils can be considered as an alternative to antibiotics because of their antibacterial properties. They are useful as auxiliary antibacterial agents for patients under long-term antibiotic treatment.

Purpose: In this paper, we show our blending ratio of 10 types of Essential Oils that survives beneficial bacteria and kills harmful bacteria in the scalp, and we investigate the possibility of application of our blending ratio to the development of anti-dandruff products and the possibility of being used as a raw material for clinical beauty and customized cosmetics. Methods: The scalp microorganisms used in our study were M. furfur, S. epidermidis, E. coli, and P. nitroreducens. There are a total of 10 Essential Oils such as True Lavender, Lime, Roman chamomile, Rosemary camphor, Cedarwood, Geranium, Clove, Tea tree, Palmalosa, and Peppermint. The antibacterial test of the blended Essential Oil was carried out according to the test method of the standardized evaluation methodology of "Food and Food Additives Code". Since M. furfur is related to the growth of sebum in the scalp, in this study we used the fnLNB and the fnLNA with 20 ㎖ of whole fat cow milk added. Results: The blending ratio of EO, which inhibits dandruff-causing bacteria such as M. furfur, S. epidermidis, E. coli, and does not inhibit P. nitroreducens showing dominant growth in a healthy scalp, was B8(Clove 0.2%, Roman chamomile 0.5%, Tea tree 0.3%), B9(Geranium 0.1%, Palmarosa 0.1%, Roman chamomile 0.5%, Tea tree 0.3%), B10(Clove 0.1%, Geranium 0.1%, Palmarosa 0.1%, Roman chamomile 0.5%, Tea tree 0.2%). Conclusion: It is thought that the blending ratio of BEO obtained as a result of this study can provide a basis for use as an alternative to antibiotics in developing anti-dandruff drugs and emerge as a new alternative to solve scalp microbial imbalance. In order for EO to be used as a useful raw material for anti-dandruff preparation, researches on 1) Standardization (the effects of products differ according to the types, regions, climate, extraction methods, etc.), 2) Antimicrobial effects, 3) Safety, etc., must be established.
