Extraction Efficiency of colorants from sorghum and its storage stability were examined according to the various extracting and storage conditions in this study. The obtained results were as follows ; The absorbance values of extracted colorants were increased with increasing extract time and temperature. The extraction at pH 4 extract was most efficient among the various pH conditions. In the juice extractor system, the amount of extracted colorant was more in distilled water pre-treatment than pH 5, but it was more in pH 5 in the long time pre-treatment above 20 hour. The color of extract solutions changed through variation of the pH. Its color changed from light yellow to heavy yellow finally red ton by pH increasing. The Methionine addition gave an effect on the storage stability of colorant solution and then had better storage stability. And so it delayed the color change up to storge period 18th day and the stabilizing effect was revealed in order of Methionine 10mmol-addition>20mmol-addtion>non-addtion.

This study aimed to develop and optimize a demucilaging process of Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten (OFI) fruit to increase its usability as functional food ingredient and food additive. Viscozyme and Novozym 33095 as multienzyme complex having a broad spectrum of carbohydrases and pectolytic enzymes, respectively, were used in enzymatic dissolution along with high hydrostatic pressure liquefaction. To optimize the liquefaction process using high hydrostatic pressure liquefying extractor, response surface methodology with 3-factor central composite design was employed with reaction factors such as temperatures (25, 32, 40, 48, and $55^{\circ}C$), pressures (20, 40, 60, 80, and 100 MPa), and times (15, 30, 45, 60, and 75 min). At optimum conditions ($25^{\circ}C$, 100 MPa, and 58.275 min) for high hydrostatic pressure liquefaction process, the processed OFI fruit juice was predicted to have viscosity at 2.917 poise, partly due to the release of free sugars such as fructose and glucose detected using HPLC-ELSA system. The results above suggests that the OFI fruit juice with decreased viscosity may be used for various manufacturing processes of food, beverage, ice cream, and cosmetics.

This study has been performed for about 270 days at analyzing biologically hazardous factors in order to develop HACCP system for the non heat-frozen carrot juice. A process chart was prepared by manufacturing process of raw agricultural products of non heat-frozen carrot juice, which was contained water and packing material, storage, washing, cutting, extraction of the juice, internal packing, metal detection, external packing, storage and consignment (delivery). As a result of measuring Coliform group, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella spp., Bacillus cereus, Listeria Monocytogenes, Enterohemorrhagic E. coli before and after washing raw carrot, Standard plate count was $4.7{\times}10^4CFU/g$ before washing but it was $1.2{\times}10^2CFU/g$ detected after washing. As a result of testing airborne bacteria (Standard plate count, Coliform group, Yeast and Fungal) depending on each workplace, number of microorganism of in packaging room, shower room and juice extraction room was detected to be 10 CFU/Plate, 60 CFU/Plate, 20 CFU/Plate, respectively. As a result of testing palm condition of workers, as number of Standard plate count, Coliform group and Staphylococcus aureus was represented to be high as $6{\times}10^4CFU/cm^2$, $0CFU/cm^2$ and $0CFU/cm^2$, respectively, an education and training for individual sanitation control was considered to be required. As a result of inspecting surface pollution level of manufacturing facility and devices, Coliform group was not detected in all the specimen but Standard plate count was most dominantly detected in scouring kier, scouring kier tray, cooling tank, grinding extractor, storage tank and packaging machine-nozzle as $8.00{\times}10CFU/cm^2$, $3.0{\times}10CFU/cm^2$, $4.3{\times}10^2CFU/cm^2$, $7.5{\times}10^2CFU/cm^2$, $6.0{\times}10CFU/cm^2$, $8.5{\times}10^2CFU/cm^2$ respectively. As a result of analyzing above hazardous factors, processing process of ultraviolet ray sterilizing where pathogenic bacteria may be prevented, reduced or removed is required to be controlled by CCP-B (Biological) and critical level (critical control point) was set at flow speed is 4L/min. Therefore, it is considered that thorough HACCP control plan including control criteria (point) of seasoning fluid processing process, countermeasures in case of its deviation, its verification method, education/training and record control would be required.

Extraction efficiency of colorants from red bean and black bean seed coat and its storage stability were examined according to the various extracting and storage conditions in this study. The obtained results were as follows ; The absorbance values of extracted colorants were increased with increasing extract time and temperature. pH 4 extracting was most efficient among the various pH conditions. The absorbance values of extracted colorant from red bean were increased with increasing extract time and temperature, when the extraction process was kept at $30^{\circ}C$ and $50^{\circ}C$, but it were decreased with increasing extract time at $70^{\circ}C$. In the case of black bean, it were also increased with increasing extract time and temperature. pH 5 extract was most efficient among the various pH conditions. In juice extractor system from red bean, the pH 5 of the pre-treatment was more efficient than the distilled water of pre-treatment. In black beans of the short-term pre-treatment with distilled water, the colorant was extracted better than at pH 5, but above 4 hours pre-treatment was decrease in pH 5. The Methionine added as a stabilizer gave the more effect to the stability of colorant from red bean the more Methionine addition. In the case of black bean 10mmol addition of methionine was more efficient than 20mmol.

The purpose of this study was to search available resources for new natural colorants. The extraction efficiency of colorants from black cowpea seed coats and their storage stability were examined according to the various extraction and storage conditions in this study. The results obtained were as follows: the optical density (O.D.) values of the extracted colorants increased with increasing extract time and temperature. Extraction at pH 4 was seen to be the most efficient among the various pH conditions. The color of the extract solutions were seen to change with variation in pH, for example, anthocyanins display color changes from orange-red, to orange, to blue, to greenish-blue at pH 3.0, 4.0-6.0, 7.0 and 9.0-11.0, respectively. The color changes of the extract solutions over various storage periods were determined using UV/Vis spectra these color changes indicate characteristic absorption patterns and a discoloration index which indicates the rate of absorbance (532 nm/454 nm). Methionine addition influenced the storage stability of the colorant solutions and this addition led to better storage stability than non-addition. In paper chromatography of juice extracted colorant, a long stripe was seen on development. Among three colorants obtained via paper chromatography according to development rate, at least two different colorants were mixed indicated by the appearance, or not, of a shoulder at 552 nm depending on the extent of development.
