When making a yellow layer cake, an existing chemical leavening agent, sourdough starter powder, was used instead of using baking powder in order to produce batter where the acid agent in the baking powder was reduced using baking soda. The control group had the lowest share of the batter and therefore had the highest specific volume. In a test group, the share of SP4 was low and therefore, the specific volume was high. In terms of physiochemical characteristics, the volume, symmetry and uniform index was high in SP4 in the test group. The control group had the highest moisture content followed by SP4. In terms of texture, the control group had the lowest hardness and highest springiness. In the test group, SP4 had the lowest hardness and highest springiness. The result of the sensory evaluation indicates that SP4 had the best taste and flavor. In terms of overall preference, SP4 showed significantly higher preference overall. However, it did not show any significant difference compared to the control group.

Cookies were prepared using different fat: butter, margarine, and shortening. Density, specific gravity of the dough, moisture content, spreadability, color, texture, and sensory evaluation for each cookies were conducted. Density, specific gravity and moisture content of each cookies showed the highest value with butter dough, and the lowest value with shortening dough. Spreadability of the cookie with margarine was the highest, and the cookie with butter and shortening resulted lower than that. The chromaticity 'L' and 'b' with butter cookie appeared the highest value, and margarine cookie and shortening cookie were followed that result. But chromaticity 'a' of butter cookie showed the lowest result while margarine cookie, and shortening cookie showed the highest value. Overall sensory evaluation showed high preference for butter cookie, beside margarine cookie and shortening cookie showed lower preference. Butter cookie was preferred in hardness, brittleness, color and chewiness, over margarine or shortening cookie. Flavor and sweetness with margarine cookie was preferred rather than butter cookie and shortening cookie. Softness and fatty taste of shortening cookie showed the highest result, beside margarine cookie and butter cookie showed lower result.

The purposes of this study is to investigate the attitudes and value of fashion product description and consumer replies used in online shopping malls, and to examine the differences in the perceived reliability(objectivity, expertise, trustworthiness) preference and purchase intention toward the product as determined by the appeal type (evaluation-sentimental vs. factual-information) of the product description, the direction(negative vs. positive) and type(factual vs. evaluative) of consumer replies for the product in online shopping malls. Data was collected from female college students with fashion products purchase experience at online shopping malls by questionnaire survey (N=424) and analyzed by using frequency analysis, t-test and ANOVA. Results showed that consumers respondents tended to read product description and other consumer replies before purchasing, when shopping for fashion products through an on-line shopping mall. They thought that sellers' product description and the consumers' replies were helpful in making their decision; but, they were also skeptical about product description. Respondents showed higher perceived reliability, preference and purchase intention to the factual-information type product description than the evaluation-sentimental type. Positive consumer replies were more effective in yielding higher preferences and purchase intentions. Factual replies tend to yield higher reliability than evaluative replies.

This paper presents a methodology to be able to select an appropriate RP system that suits the end use of a part. Evaluation factors used in process selection include major attributes such as accuracy, roughness, strength, elongation, part cost and build time that greatly affect the performance of RP systems. Crisp values such as accuracy and surface roughness are obtained with a new test part developed. The test part is designed with conjoint analysis to reflect users' preference. The part cost and build time that have approximate ranges due to cost and many variable parameters are presented by linguistic values that can be described with triangular fuzzy numbers. Based on the evaluation values obtained, an appropriate RP process for a specific part application is selected by using the modified TOPSIS(Technique of Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) method. It uses crisp data as well as linguistic variables, and each weight on the alternatives is assigned by using pair-wise comparison matrix. The ranking order helps the decision making of the selection of RP systems.

Changes in the Qualify Properties of Doenjang Prepared using the Powder or extracts of Paecilomyces japonica were investigated during fermentation at 20$^{\circ}C$. The moisture content was increased during fermentation but was not significantly different in all treatments. The pH of Doenjang with p. japonica was lower than the control group and decreased with the fermentation time. The amino nitrogen content increased gradually for up to 60 days and decreased slightly at 90 days. The L, a and b value decreased in proportion to the fermentation period and those of Doenjang with P. japonica powder were the lowest. From the results of the sensory evaluation, the color of the control group was similar to "yellow" but that of the Doenjang made from powder of P. japonica was close to "dark brown" and those of the Doenjang made from the P. japonica extract were darker than that of the control group. The texture was "glossy and smooth" in all cases and preference about the texture was high. The Doenjang with added P. japonica Powder had a saltier taste and the Doenjang with P. japonica Powder had the least sweet taste. In the flavor and overall Preference, the Doenjang with P. japonica powder was the lowest.

Sugar snap cookies were prepared with the addition of carrot powder (2~12%) as a source of dietary fiber. Analyses of physiochemical properties, rheology and sensory evaluation of the cookies were conducted. Increasing carrot powder content weakened the flour, as evidenced by decreased diameter and increased thickness, which resulted in decreased spread factor. The water content of the carrot powder-amended cookies and unamended flour was not significantly different. The pH and L values progressively decreased and a and b values progressively increased with increasing addition of carrot powder. Textural analysis revealed no significant differences in brittleness with carrot powder addition, even though brittleness did decrease with the addition of more carrot powder. Sensory evaluation revealed a preference for cookies prepared with 2~4% carrot powder, with decreased preference at powder concentrations exceeding 6%. Addition of a dried vegetable with high fiber content caused the dietary fiber to absorb much water content, resulting in decreased diameter, increased thickness and decreased spread factor. Therefore, it is deemed desirable to increase the spread factor by controlling the water content and adding emulsifiers so as to enhance the functionality and maintain the quality of cookies.

Seasoned laver is the highest consumed item among processed laver foods. However, it easily undergoes quality deterioration during processing and storage by lipid oxidation. The purpose of this study was to develop onion seasoned laver with strengthened functional properties through evaluation of storage characteristics. Proximate composition, color index, acid value, thiobarbituric acid (TBA) production, and sensory evaluation of seasoned laver with 0, 15 and 30% onion powder were analyzed during storage periods of 0, 12 and 24 weeks. The lightness, redness, and yellowness of 30% onion seasoned laver significantly increased according to storage period. The acid value and TBA production significantly increased in control laver without onion powder, with no significant difference in 30% onion seasoned laver according to storage period. Sensory preference of onion seasoned laver was better than that of control laver in terms of taste, texture, and overall acceptability. To sum up these results, seasoned laver with 30% onion powder showed superior color degree, acid value, TBA production and sensory preference in proportion to added amount.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics of fish paste added with different amounts (0%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, and 2%) of spirulina powder. Specifically, moisture content, pH value, color value, texture value, total polyphenol content, DPPH radical scavenging activity, and sensory evaluation were measured in the samples. The moisture content of the fish paste added (0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, and 2%) ranged from 68.60% to 69.03%, and the increased amounts of spirulina powder in the fish paste tended to decrease the pH value. For the Hunter color values, the L, a values of surface and inside of the fish paste decreased with increased amounts of spirulina powder. The b values of the fish paste increased with increased amounts of spirulina powder. In the texture meter test, the hardness, gumminess, and adhesiveness decreased with the increased amounts of spirulina powder, and chewiness of group adding spirulina powder was measured lower than control. Springiness of the fish paste did not appear statistically significantly different among the samples according to the increased amounts of spirulina powder. Total polyphenol content of fish paste added with spirulina powder increased with increased amounts of spirulina powder, and DPPH radical scavenging was heightened according to increased amounts of spirulina powder. In sensory evaluation, the addition of 1% spirulina powder had the best score in odor, texture, taste, and overall preference. These results suggest that spirulina powder can be applied to fish paste to increase quality, preference, and functionality.

The purpose of this study is to investigate hand and sensibility of PET treated by Ultra-Violet (UV). The 4-channel PET knit fabric was treated by a self-made UV instrument in 5cm distance with different time frames-0min, 30min, and 90min. For hand evaluation, mechanical properties were measured by the KES-FB system. The environmental condition was controlled at 29$^{\circ}C$, 75% (R.H.)-summer standard climate. Twenty female students evaluated 'roughness', 'smoothness', 'wetness', 'stiffness', 'coolness', 'touch', 'preference', and 'comfort'. The outcomes of the experiment are as follows: The surface roughness of mechanical properties showed significant differences and the value of PET irradiated by UV for 90min was highest. The order of primary hand value such as NUMERI and FUKURAMI was in a following order-Untreated > 30min treated > 90min treated. Total hand value showed that PET irradiated by UV for 90min was appropriate for using summer fabric. The results of subjective sensibility were that the untreated and 30min treated PET were recognized as similar and had a good evaluation on 'comfort', 'preference' and 'the sense of touch'. This consequence disagreed with total hand value, because it was considered that subjects' hand sensibility was dependent on the feel of smoothness.

This study was conducted in order to observe the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of hamburger patties added with yam powder (0, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% of bread crumbs). Increasing the amount of yam powder in the hamburger patties tended to decrease the cooking loss rate of the weight and the diameters. The moisture content of hamburger patties ranged from 51.90 to 53.94%. Increasing the amount of yam powder in the hamburger patty tended to increase the pH and the redness (a) in the hunter color value; however, it decreased the lightness (L). For the textural characteristics, the addition of yam powder increased the hardness of the hamburger patties. In the sensory evaluation, an addition of 50% and 100% yam powder had the best score in taste as well as in the overall preference. Therefore, this result suggests that adding yam powder of 100% can be applied to the hamburger patties for preference and nutritional aspects purposes.
