Wet noodles with different percentages of Curcuma Ionga L. powder(CLP) as an additive were generated and their cooking characteristics were evaluated. Wheat flour with 8% CLP had the highest water binding capacity and breakdown, while setback was reversed. Cooked noodle characteristics, weight, volume and tensile strength decreased as CLP content of wheat flour increased, but turbidity of the soup was reversed. L value of wet noodles was higher than cooked noodles, while b value, and texture of wet noodles were lower than cooked noodles. Hunter color value and texture measurements demonstrated decreasing L value, springiness and cohesiveness but increasing b value, hardness, gumminess and chewiness with increasing CLP content. In sensory evaluations, noodles made with 4% CLP were most highly preferred, while noodles made with 2% and 8% CLP were less preferred than CLP-free prepared noodles.

In the current study, the probiotic potential of approximately 250 strains of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from piglet fecal samples were investigated; among them Lactobacillus plantarum strain JDFM LP11, which possesses significant probiotic potential, with enhanced acid/bile tolerance, attachment to porcine intestinal epithelial cells (IPEC-J2), and antimicrobial activity. The genetic characteristics of strain JDFM LP11 were explored by performing whole genome sequencing (WGS) using a PacBio system. The circular draft genome have a total length of 3,206,883 bp and a total of 3,021 coding sequences were identified. Phylogenetically, three genes, possibly related to survival and metabolic activity in the porcine host, were identified. These genes encode p60, lichenan permease IIC component, and protein TsgA, which are a putative endopeptidase, a component of the phosphotransferase system (PTS), and a major facilitator in the gut environment, respectively. Our findings suggest that understanding the functional and genetic characteristics of L. plantarum strain JDFM LP11, with its candidate genes for gut health, could provide new opportunities and insights into applications in the animal food and feed additive industries.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of red wine on the quality properties and sensory score of seasoned pork meat. Pork meat was treated with 25% water (control), 20% water and 5% red wine (RW5), 15% water and 10% red wine (RW10), or 10% water and 15% red wine (RW15). The moisture, crude protein, crude fat, $L^*$ value, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, and VBN content were not significantly different among the samples. Cooking yield, moisture retention, and fat retention were significantly higher in the RW5, RW10, and RW15 (p < 0.05) compared to those in the control. The $a^*$ value of RW5 was the highest among the samples, and the $b^*$ value increased significantly in the control and RW5 (p < 0.05). The hardness of the control was the highest among all samples (p < 0.05). The pH was significantly lower in RW5, RW10 and RW15 (p < 0.05) compared to that in the control. The TBARS value and total bacteria were significantly lower in RW5, RW10, and RW15 (p < 0.05) compared to those in the control. Adding red wine altered the fatty acid and free amino acid of cooked seasoned pork. These results suggest the possibility that red wine could be used an additive to improve the quality of cooked seasoned pork.

This study was performed to investigate the effects of lemon balm (Melissa officinalis L.) on various quality and antioxidant activity of hamburger patties. Lemon balm extract (LBE) showed the highest amount of total polyphenol (801.00 mg TAE/g DW) and flavonoids (65.05 mg RA/g DW). The $IC_{50}$ value of DPPH hydroxyl scavenging of LBE was $132{\mu}g/mL$. The hamburger patties were prepared by 0% (N), 0.1% (L1), 0.5% (L2), and 1.0% (L3) of the lemon balm powder. The addition of lemon balm powder increased the chewiness value, but did not affect the hardness, cohesiveness, and springiness values. Lemon balm powder had positive effects on sensory evaluation of patties. The pH of all patties decreased with longer storage period. 2-Thiobarbituric acid value, volatile basic nitrogen content, and the total microbial counts of hamburger patties in the L3 group were lower, compared to those of the normal (N group). In conclusion, the L3 group had significantly delayed lipid peroxidation compared to other treatment groups. However, the addition of lemon balm powder into patties showed no significantly influence on proximate composition, calorie contents, water holding capacity and cooking loss of patties. Therefore, lemon balm might be a useful natural antioxidant additive in meat products.

This study was carried out to discuss a colorimetric method for the determination of nitrite in meat products issued by the Ministry of Health and Social Affaires of Korea (1985). 1) The recovery rates of nitrite of test solution extracted in the room temperature were higher than those obtained by the heating extraction. 2) In the room temperature, samples prepared with the sUce were more effective than the blendina method and the distlled water as extractina solvent for nitrite was more effective tban tbe phospbate buffer solution. 3) The extracting time showed that thirty minutes were enough to extract nitrite and the diazotizingcoupling reagents, 30% of sulfanilamide and N-l-naphthylethyienediamine were better than others. 4) The nitrite in a test soiution greatly decreased when the solution was distilled. In this case, the test solution should be used as a control. 5) Ten minutes were enough to couple nitrite.

Shindari is a traditional fermented drink of Jeju in Korea, which is made with boiled barley and nuruk for short fermentation periods. This study determined chemical, microbiological, and sensory characteristics of the modified Shindari with 15% carrots as an additive (carrot Shindari), and this study compared it with a traditional Shindari as a control. After fermentation at $30^{\circ}C$ for a day, the pHs of the carrot Shindari and traditional Shindari largely decreased, and the total acidities increased in both of the Shindari. The significantly higher scores of Hunter's color values were observed more in carrot Shindari than in traditional Shindari. Also, carrot Shindari (0.4954 g/100 g) had a significantly higher content of vitamin C than traditional Shindari (0.0030 g/100 g). The most abundant free sugar and organic acid were glucose and lactic acid, respectively, in both of the Shindari. The total numbers of bacteria, fungi and lactic-acid bacteria in both samples increased by log 3 CFU/mL after fermentation. Based on 16S ribosomal RNA gene analysis, the dominant lactic-acid bacteria was Pediococcus acidilactici in both samples. The DPPH (1.1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity of carrot Shindari (60.13%) was higher than that of traditional Shindari (23.70%). In sensory evaluations (taste, flavor, color, and overall acceptance), the carrot Shindari had higher scores in all these values. In this study, the modified Shindari with carrot presenting high sensory characteristic as well as chemical and microbiologic characteristics provide an opportunity to improve the application of a traditional fermented drink of Jeju, Shindari.

Sensory and instrumental characteristics of mixed starch gels of defatted corn starch and mung bean starch were examined in terms of the effects of various additives such as textured soy protein(TSP), soybean oil(S0), carboxymethyl cellulose(CMC) and pectin(PC). Gels were prepared by storing the paste at room temperature for 24 hrs and 72 hrs. The additives were used 1% or 2% on the starch basis. The ratio of defatted corn starch and mung bean starch was selected 60 : 40(to, w/w), where the acceptability was the highest. The cohesiveness and springiness of the mixed starch gels stored 24 hrs increased, but the brittleness and acceptability decreased with all the additives. Textural characteristics of the mixed gels stored 72 hrs were different according to the type and content of additives, whereas hardness and cohesiveness increased in all case. Unlike the sensory evaluation, the textural properties of mixed gels tested by a Instron Universal Testing Machine showed no difference in hardness, but the cohesiveness and springiness increased.

Soybean curd has been known as one of the most favorite traditional Korean foods as well as being high in protein. Each concentration of added natural materials soybean curds was chosen as 4% of carrot, 10% of cucumber, 1.0% of spinach and 0.05% of green tea powder. The yield of soybean curd containing natural materials was similar to that of non-containing curd. According to add GDL as coagulant, the yield of soybean curd containing natural materials was the highest. The turbidity of added natural material soybean curds was the highest coagulated with $CaCl_2$, but soybean curd containing green tea had the highest turbidity in the coagulated with GDL. In the chromaticity and texture properties of the additive natural materials in yhe soybean curd, the variety of additives had no effect. In the composition of natural materials, the carotenoid and chlorophyll content of soybean curds were high with $MgCl_2$ and $CaCl_2$ but polyphenol was high use of $CaSo_4$ and GDL.

Carrot, cucumber, spinach which contain carotenoid and chlorophyll pigment, and green tea which contain catechin were selected to natural materials. Although the yield of soybean curd with added natural materials were below than non-added soybean curd. Also, the additive natural materials in the soybean curd had no effect to the texture in soybean curd. The optimum concentration of added natural materials were high acceptability opposed to the non-containing soybean curd. The optimum concentration of added natural materials soybean curds was obtained : 4% of carrot, 10% of cucumber, 1.0% of spinach and 0.05% of green tea powder. And soybean curd with spinach and green tea addition had a longer shelf life because it prevented growing of bacteria in the early stage. Therefore, it could be possible to prevent the deterioration of soybean curd with added natural materials.
