This study was conducted to evaluate the prediction of sensory property of smoke from the leaf chemical property and characterize leaf chemical components for the best tobacco taste's leaves in burley tobacco. For analytical and sensory evaluations, sixteen grades were used. The major leaf chemical components to predict the sensory property of smoke were ether extract for tobacco-like, chloride for impact and total nitrogen/nicotine for irritation. Within ${\pm}20\;%$ range of difference, the predictable probabilities of sensory property of smoke from the leaf chemical properties were 100 % for tobacco-like, impact and irritation. As a result of K-means cluster analysis on the basis of tobacco taste, the desirable leaf chemical component contents were $6.5{\sim}6.8\;%$ in ether extract, $0.25{\sim}0.30\;%$ in chloride and $1.26{\sim}1.54$ in total nitrogen/nicotine ratio. This study suggest that the some regression equations may be useful to predict the sensory components of tobacco smoke from a few selected leaf chemical properties in burley tobacco and to select the burley tobacco leaves for enhance the tobacco taste of cigarette.

New gluten-free food product (tarhana) was produced using rice and com flours. Chemical and sensory properties of the tarhana samples were investigated and compared with those of traditional wheat tarhana. Generally, sensory analysis results indicated that utilization of com and rice flours in tarhana resulted in acceptable soup properties in terms of some of the sensory properties. The changes in electrophoretic properties of the proteins of the tarhana samples were also studied during the tarhana production. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacryamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) results showed that relative intensities of some of the protein bands in tarhana samples generally decreased during fermentation. The decrease was more obvious at the larger molecular weight region. Corn and rice tarhana seem to be promising food products for the celiac patients who have limited choice of cereal based foods.

The core ingredient of traditional Korean style soy sauce is soy bean without any wheat or rice incorporated. National brands as well as regional micro-brewed companies constitute the soy sauce market in Korea. The present study investigated the physico-chemical and sensory properties of soy sauces produced by small-scale or mass-production. Additionally, the key physico-chemical parameters sufficiently representing the critical sensory characteristics have been identified. Ten types of soy sauce brewed by the Korean traditional method were selected for the study. Among these samples, seven types were brewed in small-scales in the Gyeonggi-do region whereas the other 3 types were mass-production products of major national brands. The total solid, reducing sugar, salinity, sugar content, amino nitrogen, CIELAB, acidity, and pH of soy sauce samples were measured for the physico-chemical analysis. A generic descriptive analysis was conducted to analyze the sensory characteristics of the samples using six trained panelists. The descriptive panel developed 21 sensory attributes. The data were statistically analyzed using ANOVA, PCA and PLSR. Overall, the micro-brewed products showed significantly higher value of salinity and acidity but lower content of reducing sugar than the mass-production products. The micro-brewed soy sauces elicited stronger fermented flavor, sourness, and bitterness whereas the national brand products elicited stronger alcoholic odor, sweetness and umami taste. Sugar content, acidity, and amino nitrogen showed strong relationships with fish sauce flavor, umami taste, and rich flavor. Salinity was closely related to the overall flavor intensity.

For a period of 5 days, the quality of breads with Paecilomyces japonica powder were investigated using chemical, sensory, and mechanical evaluations at $25^{\circ}C$. The result of analysis of chemical properties revealed that the pH value of dough was increased as the amount of Paecilomyces japonica powder increased, but volume of dough and baking loss rate were decreased. Breads with 1% and 2% Paecilomyces japonica powder showed a good overall preference in sensory evaluation. As storing time passed. moisture content, lightness, and redness were decreased in all breads, but yellowness increased. Hardness and gumminess of texture analysis were increased as storing time passed, but springiness decreased. Springiness of the mechanical properties was negatively correlated with pH value of dough and volume of bread, while was positively correlated with volume of dough and baking loss rate. In the analysis of correlation between sensory and mechanical properties showed that hardness of mechanical properties had negative correlation with softness, moistness, and springiness. Cohesiveness of mechanical properties had positive correlation with acceptability.

This study was carried out to investigate the changes of physical and chemical properties and the usability of long-term stored leaf tobacco. The physical chemical properties of the flue-cured and burley leaves produced in 1993, processed in 1994 were analysed from Nov. 1996 to Nov. 1999. The pH and moisture content in leaf decreased slowly until 4 years’storage after processing, while those of leaf changed little thereafter. However, total sugar content continuously decreased until 5 years after processing. The filling capacity increased and shatter resistance index decreased in long-term stored leaf. The sensory test, cilia stasis and the chemical components of cigarette smoke had no significant differences between short and long-term stored leaves. When the processed leaves were stored till 5 years after processing, there were no deteriorative effects on quality and usability of leaf tobacco. Therefore, it is considered that the processed leaf may be stored for 5 years or more under the inevitable situation.

Comminuted sausages with reduced fat (25-0%) and increased moisture (19-44%) combinations were manufactured, and their chemical composition, and physico-chemical, textural and sensory properties were determined for the selection of the most palatable sausage treatment. The moisture and fat contents of the comminuted sausages varied from 55-79% and 26.4-2.14%, respectively, whereas, the protein content was relatively constant at 13.5-14.5%. Expressible moisture (EM, %) decreased with increased fat addition, and the high-fat control sausage (~25% fat) had lower EM than those with lower than 15% fat addition. Increased fat level also increased Hunter L values (lightness) of sausage samples taken from the core, and differences in lightness were observed between 15 and 25% fat level at the initial mixture. Sausages without fat addition had different textural characteristics from high-fat control sausages in most texture profile analysis (TPA) values. However, no differences in TPA values were observed among treatments with added fat (<25%) in the formulation. Results of the sensory evaluation showed that the most appropriate fat content of comminuted sausages to have better sensory properties ranged from 15-20% of added fat at the initial mixture. These results also indicated that decreased fat and increased moisture contents produce sausages with higher EM and lower lightness. Comminuted sausages without fat addition had different textural characteristics from the high-fat control.

We evaluated chemical, sensory and mechanical properties of breads containing different amount of Paecilomyces japonica powder to provide the basic informations for the development of functional bread. The pH of dough with 2% Paecilomices japonica powder was the highest but the pH of dough with 3% Paecilomices japonica powder was the lowest. Baking loss rate of bread added 3% Paecilomices japonica powder was the lowest but that of bread added 1% Paecilomyces japonica powder was the highest in that. The result of sensory evaluation showed that bread added 1% Paecilomices japonica Powder was significantly more preferable in chewiness, mouth feel, texture quality and overall quality. Sensory properties of softness, wheat flour odor, moisture, and mouth feel were positively correlated with the acceptability. Mechanical properties of hardness and chewiness had negative correlation with sensory properties, but springiness, gumminess and brittleness had positive correlation with those. The results of various measurements and evaluations showed that the quality of bread containing the Paecilomices japonica powder could be well accepted organoleptically. And this in turn proves the possibility of functional bread by use of Paecilomices japonica.

This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of forced fermentation on chemical and sensory properties in burley leaf tobacco. Three process steps of burley leaf tobacco(green and redried leaves produced in 2000, and aged leaves in 1998) and four grades(BlT, B2T, C1W and C2W) of leaf for every step were used in this study. The leaves were moistened by 22% moisture content, packed under 200kg/㎥ condition and stored in chamber controlled 6$0^{\circ}C$ and 90% R.H. for 7 days. Nicotine contents in three steps of burley leaf tobacco were significantly decreased by forced fermentation. Except for aged leaf, pH values of green and redried leaves were significantly lowered. Nicotine, tar and CO contents of cigarette smoke showed little difference between cigarettes containing 23%, 26% and 29% of fermented burley leaf and controlled cigarette(containing 19% of aged burley leaf). The cigarette containing 26% of the redried and fermented leaf was significantly better taste and less irritation than controlled cigarette. The results suggest that the forced fermentation may be useful to increase the rate of burley tobacco in leaf blending and to shorten the period of storage for aging.

In this study, the effects of grape seed flour on the physical-chemical properties, microbiological and sensory properties of Turkish dry fermented sausage, sucuk, was investigated. After the sausages produced with beef, beef fat, sheep tail fat and spices, they were ripened for 14 d. Then they were vacuum-packaged and stored for 80 d at 4℃. The effects of grape seed flour (GSF; 0%, 0.75%, 1.5%, 3%) on the physical-chemical properties (pH, moisture, fat, protein, free fatty acids, thiobarbituric acids, diameter reduction, ripening yield, instrumental colour), microbiological properties (total aerobic mesophilic and lactic acid bacteria, Enterobacteriaceae, mould and yeast) and sensory properties of the sausages were investigated. Grape seed flour decreased moisture, TBA, diameter reduction, instrumental colour (a, b) values and sensory analysis scores during the ripening period; it also decreased TBA, instrumental colour (L, a, b) values, total aerobic mesophilic and lactic acid bacteria counts during the storage period. It was concluded that grape seed flour has a potential application as an additive in dry fermented sausages.

This study was undertaken to examine the effects of fresh ginseng addition on the chemical and sensory properties of dongchimi juice fermented under various conditions. The contents of free sugars in dongchimi juice during fermentation increased at the initial stage, but decreased at the palatable stage and then increased again thereafter. Free sugars were higher in dongchlml juice with 4% of ginseng addition than with Soye ginseng and without ginseng addition. Analyses of organic acid contents showed that all three groups contained relatively high amounts of citric, lactic and malic acids. It was also found that, as fermentation progressed, the amounts of tactic and acetic acids in- creased, while that of malic acid decreased at the palatable stage and increased again thereafter. Total saponins were highest in dongchimi juice fermented at 4$^{\circ}C$ with 4% of ginseng addition and panax atrlol ginsenosldes were found more than panaxadiol ginsenosides in dongchimi juice The results of sensory evaluation revealed that dongchimi juice prepared with the addition of $4^{\circ}C$ and 4% ginseng was lower in sour taste and moldy off flavor than the control, thus scoring high In total acceptability. Dongchimi juice with 4% of ginseng addition was best in most sensory characteristics.
