The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics of Gamgyul-Injeulmi containing different ratios of Citrus mandarin powder(0, 3, 6, 9 and 12%). The moisture content of the control group was 45.37%. As the ratio of Citrus mandarin powder increased, moisture content decreased. The water holding capacity of glutinous rice flour with Citrus mandarin powder decreased gradually in proportion to the amount of Citrus mandarin powder added. An analysis of Hunter's color values for Gamgyul-Injeulmi indicate that the addition of Citrus mandarin powder leads to lower L value and higher a and b value compared to the control. Textural analysis of Gamgyul-Injeulmi showed that the hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness increased as Citrus mandarin powder was added, whereas adhesiveness and springiness decreased. According to the sensory evaluation of Gamgyul-Injeulmi, as the ratio of Citrus mandarin powder was increased, the flavor, sweetness and hardness all increased. Gamgyul-Injeulmi with 6% Citrus mandarin powder was rated as the best in terms of color and for overall preference in the sensory evaluation.

This study assessed the quality characteristics of Yanggaeng prepared with different ratios of Citrus mandarin powder: 0, 2, 4, and 6%. The moisture content was lowest in the controls, while there were no significant differences among the groups supplemented with Citrus mandarin powder. The pH significantly decreased as the amount of Citrus mandarin powder increased. The lightness (L), redness (a), and yellowness (b) were lower in control groups compared to Citrus mandarin powder groups. Texture profile analysis showed that the hardness of the Citrus mandarin powder groups were lower than the control (which was the highest). The total polyphenol and flavonoid content and DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity increased as the amount of Citrus mandarin powder increased. The result of a sensory evaluation test revealed no significant differences between the controls and groups with 2% Citrus mandarin powder added in color, smell, taste, texture, and overall acceptability.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics of Gamgyul-Injeulmi with different ratios of Citrus mandarin powder(0, 3, 6, 9, 12%) during storage. The moisture contents of the Gamgyul-Injeulmi decreased during storage but the moisture content of control(containing 0% Citrus mandarin powder) was almost constant. According to amylograms, gelatinization temperatures were lower in the samples containing Citrus mandarin powder compared to the control. More additions of Citrus mandarin powder caused lower viscosity and breakdown values but higher setback values. The pH of all samples decreased during storage but as more Citrus mandarin powder was added the changes in pH were less. The titratable acidity of all samples increased during storage and more additions of Citrus mandarin powder resulted in higher titratable acidity. For the Hunter's color values during storage, L and a values decreased but b values was increased except for the control. Textural analyses of the Gamgyul-Injeulmi showed that hardness, gumminess and chewiness increased, whereas adhesiveness, cohesiveness and springiness decreased during storage.

This study was conducted to examine the characteristics of bread quality as per addition rate of citrus mandarin peel powder since interests and concerns about healthy functional food have been increased in contemporary society. The result of mixogram from Mixograph showed that dough added with 3% citrus mandarin peel powder was suitable for baking quality. Stickiness of dough was decreased with addition of citrus mandarin peel powder. Compared with the controlled group, fermentation rate was decreased as the level of citrus mandarin peel powder increased while pH levels of dough and bread were significantly decreased. The TPA analysis showed that the hardness and adhesiveness levels increased as the level of citrus mandarin peel powder increased whereas springiness, cohesiveness and chewiness became decreased. Crumb fineness and elongation became higher as seen from the result of crumbScan. Volume and specific volume was decreased. The result of preference test presented that crumb color, texture, flavor and taste were the highest in the M3, which showed highest point in overall preference. In conclusion, M3 was the best in preference, taste and texture, thus determined as the optimal rate in association with the addition of citrus mandarin peel powder.

This study was performed to investigate the effect of whole mandarin, peel or pulp intake of Citrus unshiu Marc. on antioxidative capacity and oxidative DNA damage in fifteen-month aged rats. Forty-eight male Sprague-Dawley rats $(621.9\;{\pm}\;10.1\;g)$ were blocked into four groups according to their body weights as control group, whole mandarin powder group, mandarin peel powder group and mandarin pulp powder group. Rats were raised with diets containing 5% (w/w) freeze dried mandarin formulations for four weeks. Total polyphenol content and total antioxidant status (TAS) of mandarin formulations were highest in peel powder, followed by whole powder and then pulp powder. The 8-hydroxy2'-deoxyguanosine concentrations of kidney in all mandarin groups were significantly lower than that of control group, and that of mandarin peel group was much lower than whole powder and pulp groups. Plasma TAS levels of all the experimental groups were higher than that of control group, and among mandarin groups, peel group showed higher level than remaining two groups. In conclusion, all the mandarin formulations were effective on antioxidative capacity in fifteen-month aged rats, and the peel was most effective one among three formulations.

This study was performed to investigate the effect of whole mandarin, peel, and pulp intake of Citrus unshiu Marc on the antioxidative capacity of 15-month-old rats. Forty-eight male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 621.9 $\pm$ 10.1 g were separated into four groups according to body weight. The rats were raised with diets containing 5% (w/w) dried mandarin powder for four weeks. Three powders were used, consisting of mandarin peel, pulp, and the entire fruit. Total flavonoids, antioxidant vitamins and dietary fiber was highest in the mandarin peel powder, followed by the whole mandarin powder and the mandarin pulp. The body weight gains of the whole mandarin and mandarin pulp groups were higher, while that of the mandarin peel group was lower than that of the control group. Food intake and ratios of liver, kidney and epididymal fat pad (EFP) weights to body weight were not significantly different among the groups, but ratios of EFP weights per body weight of the experimental groups tended to be lower than that of the control animals. Plasma and liver TBARS concentrations decreased in all the mandarin groups compared to the control group. Plasma and liver xanthine oxidase (XO) activity decreased in all of the mandarin diet groups. Erythrocyte and liver SOD activity in all of experimental groups was not significantly different from the control group. Plasma vitamin A concentration increased significantly in all of the mandarin diet groups. That of the mandarin peel group was 4 times higher than that of the control group. Plasma total carotenoids and vitamin C level also increased in the mandarin peel group. Plasma vitamin I level was not significantly different among the groups.

Pound cakes were prepared with Citrus mandarin powder(CMP) cultivated in JeJu Island, Korea. The impact of CMP amount level, which was incorporated into wheat flour by the ration of 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20% based on a flour weight, on the rheology and sensory profile of the pound cakes was measured. Moisture content of 13.70%, crude protein 5.12%, crude lipid 1.30%, crud ash 1.92%, respectively. Also evaluation was performed on the changes in physicochemical properties of the pound cakes during storage at 4 and $30^{\circ}C$. According to the amylogram, gelatinization temperature of the control dough was $63.35^{\circ}C$ and those of the dough with CMP were $63.85{\sim}66.55^{\circ}C$. Maximum viscosity of the dough was 686 B.U in the control, those were 575 B.U, 553 B.U, 504 B.U and 401 B.U in the dough with 5, 10, 15, and 20% CMP, respectively. The retrogradation degree(setback value) of CMP dough was $31{\sim}57%$ lower than that of the control dough under the same conditions. Water holding capacity of pound cake was increased gradually in proportion to the amount of CMP. The CMP addition decreased the brightuess(L) of pound cakes but increased redness(a) and yellowness(b). Hardness of pound cakes was significantly increased by CMP addition, while springiness, adhesiveness and cohesiveness were decreased. Based on sensory evaluation, pound cakes added with CMP were not significantly different in color and texture, while that of 10% CMP was significantly high in taste, flavor, and overall preferences, compared to the control. pH of pound cake with CMP was decreased during storage, showing that pH of CMP samples was lower than the control. Titrated acidity of pound cake with CMP was increased rapidly from storage for 10 days, which the changes in degree was fast in accordance with CMP amount. The Hunter's color value of pound cake with CMP was decreased, as the storage time proceeded. In the samples prepared with CMP, the firmness, adhesiveness, gumminess and chewiness was increased as the storage time proceeded, while springiness and cohesiveness was decreased.
