The objective of this study was to examinate the differences of general component, chromaticity, pH, weight, loss on baking, specific volume bulk, diameter of upper side and height, mechanical texture, DPPH radical, ABTS radical, Total amount of phenol, Monacolin-K content, sensory test on Muffin using no Red Yeast Rice and different levels (2%, 4%, 6%, 8%, 10%) of Red Yeast Rice. pH was decreased as the amount of added Red Yeast Rice increased(control 8.35, RM2% 7.93, RM4% 7.86, RM6% 7.69, RM8% 7.49, RM10% 7.30). Weight and loss on baking were showed not too different depending the amount of added Red Yeast Rice, and the baking loss were at very low point. Adhesion, cohesiveness, elasticity, viscosity, and chewiness showed no attentive differences on mechanical texture analysis. As the level of Red Yeast Rice increased, DPPH radical, ABTS radical, and Total phenol content decreased. Monacolin K were at higher point as the level of Red Yeast Rice increased. The sensory test showed Taste, Texture, and Overall acceptability gained the highest point when using 4% of Red Yeast Rice. On the sensory test, 4% of Red Yeast Rice was considered to be the best level based on Flavor and Color. The results of these tests show 4% of Red Yeast Rice is most preferred and considered to be most suited with flour and rice flour.

Muffins are prepared with different amounts of buckwheat powder (0~50%), and their quality characteristics are being investigated. The specific gravity is not affected by the addition of buckwheat powder (10~30%). The lightness (L value) and yellowness (b value) of muffins are decreased with increasing buckwheat amounts, whereas redness (a value) increased. No significant differences are being observed between muffins added with buckwheat (0~50%) for volume, weight, height, baking loss rate and specific volume. For textural characteristics, the cohesiveness, springiness and gumminess of muffins showed no significant differences between the groups, whereas hardness was decreased. In the sensory evaluation, score of color is decreased with increasing buckwheat amounts, whereas grain, flavor, taste, texture and overall acceptances are insignificant between groups. Upon the results of this study, it is assumed that the developments of food products when using buckwheat are prospective in response to health-oriented consumers.

Employing the muffin-tin-orbital theory combined with pseudo-potential concepts, we have evaluated hybridization matrix elements between R and T sites in $RT_{2}$ compounds. The matrix elements are calculated with two parameters, the interatomic distance between R and T atoms from the crystal structure data, and the expectation values of the radial distances for the radial wave functions of the ground state charge densities, which are obtained from the linearized muffin-tin orbital band method within the local density approximation. It is found that the R 4f/T 3d hybridization matrix elements decrease with an increasing atomic number from R=Ce to Gd, and that they are smaller in $RNi_{2}$ than in $RCo_{2}$, which are consistent with trends observed in recent photoemission spectroscopy experiments. It is also found that the magnitudes of the hybridization matrix elements in $RFe_{2}$ are comparable to those in $RNi_{2}$.

The purpose of this study was to develop a muffin containing dried leek powder. The complete analysis was conducted using the Design Expert 7 program (Stat - Easy Co., Minneapolis, MN, USA). The leek muffins were produced with varying amounts of leek powder (A), sugar (B), and butter (C). According to response surface methodology (RSM), there were 16 experimental points, including two replicates. The leek muffin formulation was optimized using rheology and sensory analyses. For the results, a quadratic model was applied in determining lightness, volume, hardness, and sensory characteristics, including flavor, texture, and overall quality; redness and height were represented by a linear model. Lightness decreased and redness increased with increasing amounts of leek powder (p<0.001). In addition, hardness displayed significant differences (p<0.001) with increasing amounts of leek powder. The sensory evaluation results showed significant differences for color, flavor, texture, and overall quality (p<0.05). Based on the numerical and graphical methods, the optimal formulation was determined as 8.30 g of leek power, 88.37 g of sugar, and 81.70 g of butter.

The purpose of this study was to promote the consumption of rice by substituting goami powder for flour when making muffins. Goami powder was prepared in different particle sizes by grinding the powder for 5 min. 10 min. 15 min. and 20 min. Precisely 72.62% of the goami powder, particles were smaller than 75 ${\mu}m$, after grinding the powder for 20 min. with a consistency similar to that of flour (78.86%). To determine the optimal amount of water for goami powder muffin batter, the viscosity of both the flour and the goami powder batter was measured. The appropriate water quantity for goami powder muffins was set at 105 mL. The volume index of flour muffins was 132 mL, while that of the goami powder muffin (GM1, GM2, GM3 and GM4) was 123 mL, 119 mL, 119 mL and 118 mL, respectively. The hardness of the flour muffins, measured by a texture analyer, was 2.03${\times}10^3$ g/$cm^2$, The hardnesses of the goami powder muffins were 2.83${\times}10^3$ g/$cm^2$ for GM1, 2.44${\times}10^3$ g/$cm^2$for GM2, 2.33${\times}10^3$ g/$cm^2$ for GM3, and 2.36${\times}10^3$ g/$cm^2$ for GM4. The L-values and moisture content of the goami powder muffins were higher than those of the flour muffins. In a sensory evaluation the overall preference was the highest for flour muffins. However among the goami powder muffins, GM3, which was made with goami powder ground for 15 min. was the most preferred.

Red yeast rice flour, which is a natural functional material, was used in muffin production at different concentrations ranging from 0 to 10%. The initial pasting temperature was not affected by the addition of red yeast rice flour, whereas peak viscosity and final viscosity decreased with increasing concentrations. The lightness value of the muffins decreased, however, the redness value increased with increasing amounts of red yeast rice flour. The bulk of the muffins was generally reduced by the addition of red yeast rice flour. At the 10% concentration, hardness and viscosity were similar to the control, and there were no changes in springiness or cohesiveness. For the sensory evaluation, parameters such as appearance, color, texture, taste, and overall acceptability increased significantly from the control at the 3% concentration of red yeast rice flour, but flavor decreased with increasing amounts of red yeast rice flour. Based on these results and the sensory evaluation specifically, the optimal amount of red yeast rice flour added to the muffins was the 3% concentration.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of muffins containing Actinidia polygama powder, which is well known for its various functions and biological activity. With increasing Actinidia polygama powder, the volume, height and specific volume increased significantly. The height of the muffins prepared with Actinidia polygama powder was higher than that of the control group. The pH of the muffin decreased significantly with increased levels of Actinidia polygama powder. The moisture of samples raged from 26.83% to 30.86%. The L- and b-value decreased, while a-value increased, with increasing amounts of added Actinidia polygama powder. Textural profile analysis showed that the hardness, springiness and chewiness were decreased with increasing Actinidia polygama powder contents. As the Actinidia polygama powder content increased, 1,1-diphenyl-2picriylhydrazyl(DPPH) radical scavenging also significantly increased. The sensory evaluation results indicated that the group of 3% Actinidia polygama powder recorded the highest overall preference score at 6.20. The quality characteristics of the 3% added samples exhibited significantly similar or higher values as compared to those of the conrols, raising the possibility of development in health-functional muffins.

The principal objective of this study was to determine the optimal conditions for making muffins with sea-tangle powder, which is known to be a healthy food supplement. The characteristics of the sea-tangle muffins were analyzed in a quality evaluation. Sea-tangle powder was added to the muffins at concentrations of 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% prior to baking. The height of the muffins to which the sea-tangle powder had been added, after storage at $20^{\circ}C$, was shown to decrease with increases in the concentration of sea-tangle powder. The weight of the muffins increased with increasing storage time, but these differences were not profound. The moisture content of the muffins decreased with increased storage time. The change in pH in accordance with storage time differed only slightly. In terms of the color of the sea-tangle powder-supplemented muffins, after storage at $20^{\circ}C$, the “L” and “b” values decreased with increasing amounts of added sea-tangle powder. The “a” value increased with increasing amounts of added sea-tangle powder. With regard to the textural properties of the sea-tangle powder-supplemented muffins, after storage at $20^{\circ}C$, the hardness and chewiness increased with greater quantities of added sea-tangle powder. Springness, cohesiveness, and adhesiveness differed only slightly as more sea-tangle powder was added. With regard to the sensory characteristics of the muffins, the overall quality of the muffin to which 10% sea-tangle powder was added was evaluated as the best. The color, flavor, and softness were also assessed as the highest. The sweetness of the muffins was assessed as weak.

Moisture content of muffin tended to increased as increasing mixing rate of maesangi. For crude protein, sample group of 9% replaced by maesangi powder was the highest. For crude fat and crude ash, there was no significant difference among sample groups. The average height of muffin was 4.7 cm, but was no significant difference among sample groups. Volume of muffin has been gradually increased as increasing mixing rate of maesangi powder, but was no significant difference among sample groups. From the SEM (scanning electron microscope) result, thick cell wall and rough blowholes were appeared. L-, a and b-values of muffin was declined as per increase of mixing rate of maesangi powder. Hardness was inclined as per increase of mixing rate of maesangi powder. There were significant differences between sample groups and reference group for adhesiveness, springiness and cohesiveness, but was no significant difference among sample groups. For gumminess, sample group of 9% replaced by maesangi powder was the highest, but there were no significant difference from sample groups of 3% and 6% replaced by maesangi powder. Chewiness was inclined as per increase of mixing rate of maesangi powder, and sample group of 9% replaced by maesangi powder was the highest. From sensory test result, sample group of 9% replaced by maesangi powder was the highest for color, and there were significant differences among sample groups. Sample group of 6% replaced by maesangi powder was the highest for flavor and taste, and there were significant differences among sample groups. Sample groups of 6% and 9% replaced by maesangi powder were the highest for texture. Sample group of 9% replaced by maesangi powder was the highest for overall preference. From all these results, the most suitable one would be the sample group of 9% replaced by maesangi powder.

This study evaluated the quality characteristics of muffins added with different amounts (0%, 3%, 6%, or 9%) of red ginseng marc powder. The specific gravity of red ginseng marc muffin batter significantly increased with increasing amounts of red ginseng marc powder (P<0.05). Weight and baking loss rate of muffin were not significantly different from those of the control. Volume, height, and pH of muffins significantly decreased when amounts of red ginseng marc powder increased (P<0.05). The moisture contents of muffins added with red ginseng marc powder increased with increasing amounts of red ginseng marc powder. The lightness and yellowness of muffins and dough increased as concentration of red ginseng marc powder increased. Redness decreased as concentration of red ginseng marc powder increased. DPPH radical scavenging activity of muffins increased with an increase in the concentration of red ginseng marc powder. The hardness, gumminess, and chewiness decreased with increasing red ginseng marc powder concentration. Adhesiveness, springiness, cohesiveness, and resilience increased with addition of powder. Sensory test revealed no significant differences in color, texture, and mouthfeel between the muffin samples. Therefore, red ginseng marc powder can be incorporated into muffins up to 6% to improve functional quality of red ginseng marc and minimize changes in quality. Futhermore, this study proposes the possibility of development of various products using red ginseng marc.
