Milling qualities and indigestible carbohydrate fractions (ICF) depending on harvesting time of Goami2 (G2), mutant of Ilpum (IP) rice, was examined. Fifty days after heading (DAH) maximized head rice milling quality (57.69%) and ICF content ($5.09{\pm}0.36\;g/100\;g$). ICF contents and physical properties of G2 and IP at 50 DAH were compared. ICF of G2 was three times higher than that of IP ($1.61{\pm}0.09\;g/100\;g$). Parboiling treatment increased ICF of G2 to $7.18{\pm}0.16\;g/100\;g$. G2 showed lower water absorption index, which could lower pasting properties, but higher water solubility index, implying it contains more soluble components. Texture properties of G2 were different from those of IP, showing higher hardness, and lower adhesiveness and cohesiveness. Positive correlation was observed between ICF and hardness, but reverse correlation between ICF and cohesiveness.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of the amount of water and several kinds of sweeteners on the texture such as grain appearance, softness, moistness, chewiness, cohesiveness, gumminess and elasticity of Backsulgi when one manufactures Backsulgi. Different amount of water of 30 ml, 60 ml and 90 ml/350 g of powdered rice and such sweetners as sugar, honey and syrup were employed for the experimental treatments. The evaluation of these results were dependent on statistical data of some scores that were obtained through sensory evaluation and Instron Universal Testing Machine. According to this sensory evaluation, the texture of Backsulgi was more affected by the change of water quantity than that of sweeteners. Judging from the results of Instron Universal Testing Machine, it was found that there were no statistically significant differences in each treatment of the cohesiveness, elasticity and hardness of Backsulgi, but some statistically significant difference was observed in each treatment of the gumminess and chewiness of Backsulgi(p<0.05).

This study was to examine the possibility of making use of the edible portion on the inner layer of chestnut, which is produced as wastes in the chestnut processing, into chestnut-noodle. To conduct this study, the chestnut powder, which is separated and collected from the inner layer, was used to examine the possibility of making chestnut-noodle. The structure of chestnut-noodle was observed by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and the sensory quality was conducted to examine usability of the chestnut-noodle as compared to wheat flour noodle by Quantitative Descriptive Analysis (QDA). The ten sensory qualities : appearance, color, flavor, hardness, elasticity, cohesiveness, adhesiveness, chewiness, gumminess, and acceptability, were evaluated by 10 point Likert type scale with 10-50% of different ratio of chestnut powder. The chestnut-noodle made by 50% of the chestnut powder got higher points than 10 % of chestnut powder mix in color. However, the chestnut-noodle made by 50% of the chestnut powder got lower points than wheat flour noodle in flavor. Finally, there was no significant difference in hardness, elasticity, cohesiveness, adhesiveness, chewiness and gumminess between the chestnut-noodle made by 30% of the chestnut powder and wheat flour noodle.

This study examined the quality characteristics of Sulgitteok samples prepared with different ratios of lotus root powder over 4 days of storage. The moisture contents of the lotus root powder-containing samples ranged from 35.39 to 37.31% and that of the Sulgitteok without lotus root powder control was 35.92%. The results showed that the various samples had the inconsistent changes during the storage period. As the content of lotus root powder increased, the L-values of samples decreased and the a- and b-values increased. However, their L-, a- and b-values did not show large differences with storage. When compared to the control, the hardness, gumminess, and chewiness of samples slowly increased as the amount of lotus root powder increased. Springiness and cohesiveness decreased according to the amount of added lotus root powder. And increasing amounts of lotus root powder and storage time resulted in greater reductions in adhesiveness. In addition, increasing storage time caused cohesiveness to decrease and springiness to increase. The sensory evaluation results showed that the 20% lotus root Sulgitteok received the highest scores, therefore, this samples was deemed superior.

This study was accomplished to examine possibilities to apply Korean medicine to breamaking. Extracts of Chungpesagan-tang prepared by the prescription of Korean medicine were used for baking, instead of water among ingredients of baking. Effects of addition of extracts of Chungpesagan-tang on various baking properties were analyzed during the process of baking. Changes in pH values and volumes of doughs during fermentation and pH values of bread showed no differences among samples. Loaf volumes and specific loaf volumes were increased somewhat on addition. The values of cohesiveness, springness, gumminess and brittleness of breads, which were measured by rheometer, were increased on addition while those of hardness were decreased a little. Lightness values of sections of loaves were decreased on addition, but their color differences were increased largely on color difference meter. There were nearly little differences among samples in all the values of parameters of external and internal characteristics and eating qualities of breads by sensory evaluation. Re-purchasing attitude of pullman bread added with Chungpesagan-tang had a high in the gender and age.

The quality characteristics were measured, using sensory evaluation and mechanical characteristics, for the addition of different percentages of apricot juice(0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%) to rice flour, in order to promote the use of and liking for the traditional Korean rice cakes. The pH was decreased with apricot juice addition, while acid was increased. The moisture contents were 36.2${\sim}$45.0% . The L-value was decreased with increasing apricot juice addition, while a- and b-values were increased. In mechanical texture characteristics, hardness, gumminess and brittleness were the highest at the 10% apricot juice level(p<.001). Springiness was also the highest at 10% level but the difference was not significant. In the sensory evaluation, the color, flavor, sourness, hardness and chewiness were increased with apricot juice addition. Apricot sulgidduk made with the addition of 10% apricot juice to rice flour was found to be the best recipe in terms of acceptability, flavor quality, taste quality, and overall quality and there was a significant difference between the samples. The springiness was negatively correlated with the cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess and brittleness while moistness was positively correlated with moisture, hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess and brittleness.

We describe a case of fine needle aspiration cytology of metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma in the lymph node of the neck presenting a predominantly spindle cell pattern. A 36 year-old male patient complained of dysesthesia on the right face and a palpable neck mass. Fine needle aspiration was done on the neck mass. Tumor cells were present in syncytial groups or singly with mainly spindle shaped nuclei, vesicular chromatin, thin and regular nuclear membrane, occasional prominent nucleoli and a few fool of cellular cohesiveness. The cytoplasm was scant and pale with ill-defined borders. Mature lymphocytes were present in the background of aspirates and within the tumor cell clusters. Histologically, the tumor of nasopharynx showed several areas of spindle cell pattern. Because the tumor cells showed a predominantly spindle shape with vesicular nuclear chromatin, the differential diagnosis of spindle cell sarcoma or granuloma of epithelioid clils were considered, but the characteristic morphology of the nuclei with vesicular chromatin and prominent nucleoli, and cellular cohesiveness were important in making the diagnosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. The possibility of metastatic carcinoma should always be considered in fine needle aspiration cytology of the lymph node in the neck because the incidence of metastatic carcinoma, particularly of the nasopharyngeal carcinoma in the lymph nodes of the neck is relatively high.
