Low glycemic index (GI) foods have been reported to be very important in the control of blood glucose levels in diseases such as diabetes mellitus and obesity, which are becoming more prevalent in Korea. Bread consumption at breakfast and as a snack is also on the rise. To provide low GI alternatives, breads supplemented with dietary fibers-fructooligosaccharide (FOS), ground whole rye, and 2 types of resistance starch (RS2 and RS4)-were developed. The GIs for these breads were evaluated with 13 healthy college students (M6, F7) and sensory tests were done. Four kinds of breads were made through the modification of a basic recipe for white bread (the control, B) as follows: for Bf, the entire amount of sugar was replaced with FOS. For Ryef, 50% of the white wheat flower was replaced with roughly ground wholerye (20 mesh: 12-20 mesh = 1 : 3) in addition to replacing sugar with FOS. For RS2f and RS4f, 20% of the white wheat flower was replaced with RS2 or RS4, in addition to replacing sugar with FOS. The overall preference score of Bf was similar to that of B, while those of Ryef, RS2f and RS4f were lower than that of B, but showed the acceptable degree of the overall preference. The glycemic indices of Ryef and RS2f were 46.1 and 45.9 respectively, which were significantly lower than the GI of B, 67.8. The GIs of Bf and RS4f were, however, 66.7 and 80.5 respectively, showing no significant difference compared to B. The glycemic loads for a 30 g serving were 9.5, 5.9, 6.2, 11.0 and 9.0 for B, Bf, Ryef, RS2f and RS4f, respectively. In conclusion, addition of RS2 or roughly ground whole rye to the dough formula significantly lowered the GI. Since the preferences shown for those two breads were acceptable, they may be recommended as a substitute for white bread fir persons who need blood glucose management. More studies on the bread making process are required to improve preference and acceptance. Although GI lowering effects for F and RS4 were not found in this study, further studies are needed to verify their effects.

The effects of green tea powder (GTP) on kimchi quality were evaluated by investigating acid production, growth of lactic acid bacteria, sensory properties, and several volatile odor components of GTP-added kimchi. The concentrations of GTE added to kimchi were 0.2, 0.4, 0.6 and 1.2% (w/w) of salted Chinese cabbage. The pH of kimchi with higher amounts of added GTP increased with ripening. The acidity of unripened kimchi or kimchi ripened for one day generally increased with the addition of GTP, while that of kimchi ripened for two or three days generally decreased with the addition of GTP. Addition of GTP had no significant effect on the lactic acid bacterial count of kimchi. Scores of overall acceptability, taste and odor of 0.2 or 0.4% GTP-added kimchi were higher than those of other samples, whereas scores of color decreased with increasing amount of GTP added to kimchi. Texture of kimchi added with higher amounts of GTP and ripened for two or three days resulted in lower score than the reference sample. Diallyl sulfide and methyl trisulfide were newly produced with the ripening of kimchi, and the amounts of some volatile odor components in kimchi were changed during ripening.

To promote the consumption of race, comparative study was performed on characteristics of wheat flour noodle mixed with brown rice flour and colored rice flour. Protein content of colored rice was higher than that of the brown rice, but lipid and ash contents were similar to those of brown rice. Colored rice flour had significantly lower peak viscosity, holding viscosity, breakdown viscosity, final viscosity and setback viscosity than those of wheat flour, while brown rice had significantly higher peak viscosity, breakdown viscosity and setback viscosity than those of colored rice flour and wheat flour. Colored rice and brown rice had 5.3~6.4% total dietary fiber, and the proportions of soluble fiber in total dietary fiber were quite low, ranging from 9.4% to 18.8%. L(brightness), a(redness) and b(yellowness) of raw noodles were measured using a colorimeter. L(brightness) and b(yellowness) values of Asian raw noodles made from colored rice and brown rice significantly decreased. Addition of colored rice flour and brown rice flour to Asian noodle reduces cutting forces of dry and cooked noodles. The cooked noodle with 10% chalheukmi waxy rice flour was the highest in the cutting force of cooked noodle. Addition of 20% chalheukini waxy rice flour and 20% brown rice flour to wheat flour was got to a relatively high score for appearance, color, texture, taste and overall eating quality from sensory evaluation of cooked noodles.

Objective : The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of left visual stimuli for reducing the severity of unilateral neglect. Method : This research used a reversal design(ABAB) of single case study. The subject was a 60-year-old male patient who had left unilateral neglect. Remedial approach is more valuable method than compensatory approach in term of reducing the unilateral neglect. One of the method of remedial approach is controlled sensory stimulation. Result : I performed the line bisection test before and after the stimulation, and while doing that, put blinking lights to the patient from the left side. The average errors in the line bisection test decreased in B B', the intervention period, compared with A A'. The MVPT left response behavior score increased from 13 to 18. Conclusion : This shows that the light stimulation is effective in the reduction of unilateral neglect.

This study was conducted to ferment high quality vinegar by using Omija fruit. Strains of bacteria producing acetic acid were isolated from spoiled Omija wine (OV1 and OV2) and traditional rice vinegar (RA). The bacterium was from optimally-oxidized Omija wine containing 6.0% ethanol and from Omija vinegar with 5.21% acetic acid by 14 days of fermentation. The Omija vinegar got the highest sensory score (5.80) among several commercial vinegars. The Omija vinegar showed a potent antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas fluorescens by the paper disc test, while Omija wine had limited antibacterial activity against S. aureus and P. fluorescens. The diameter of the clear zone formed by the paper disc test using Omija vinegar was not less than 9.5 mm. The DPPH free radical-scavenging activity of Omija wine was higher than that from Omija water extracts. The nitrite scavenging ability of Omija wine (36.98% of all nitrites present) and vinegar (31.14%) was higher than that from Omija water extracts (22.53%). Omija vinegar exhibited strong antibacterial and antioxidant activities. In conclusion, we prepared high quality vinegar from dried Omija.

Kimchi cabbage 'Choon Gwang' cultivar that was grown in highlands in Gangneung was subjected to predrying, room cooling, and forced air cooling, and then packed with/without 0.02 mm HDPE film to investigate the effect of postharvest treatment on quality characteristics during 8 weeks storage at $2^{\circ}C$ (RH $90{\pm}5%$). Weight loss in forced air cooling and room cooling was lower than 3-4% with 0.02 mm HDPE film liner treatment during storage. However, it was only below 10% in room cooling without liner treatment and forced air cooling without liner treatment led to the highest weight loss, above 15%. Conversely, the control had lower weight loss than the others. SSC was $2-4^{\circ}brix$ for all treatments and there was no difference between postharvest treatments and liner treatments. Color index and firmness both showed no differences with/without 0.02 mm HDPE film and postharvest treatments. In sensory evaluation, forced air cooling with liner treatment was effective, with the highest score, especially in appearance and crispness. After 6 weeks, control kimchi cabbage without liner treatment was damaged seriously in appearance and the internal color had changed to brown. Room cooling and predrying with liner treatment changed the start of internal browning to after 8 weeks storage.

The effects of barnyard millet (Echinochloa spp.) content (10~30%) on wheat flour dough and noodle properties were investigated. As the amount of barnyard millet increased, the particle size and ash content of mixed flour increased, while lightness tended to decrease. The gelatinization characteristics of millet flour showed higher peak viscosity, holding strength, final viscosity, and setback compared with wheat flour. There was significant positive correlation between protein content and sedimentation volume, as well as between protein content and water absorption. As the amount of barnyard millet increased, hardness, springiness and cohesiveness of wet noodles tended to decrease. From the results of sensory evaluation, composite flours (addition up to 20% barnyard millet) were rated with a quality score for taste and overall acceptance which was comparable with the control flour.

This study explores the quality characteristics of white pan bread added with perilla leaf powder, and the results are as follows. The WRC(water retention capacity) of PLP (perilla leaf powder) added to the bread dough increased as the addition increased, and the initiation temperature during the rapid visco analysis (RVA) increased with more additions, showing significant differences. The highest and the lowest viscosity of the sample decreased as the powder added increased. The brightness(L value) of the bread without the powder was the highest, and the redness (a value) and the yellowness (b value) showed significant differences among the samples. Hardness increased showing significant differences among the samples as the powder added increased Chewiness was the highest but preference value was the lowest in the sample with 7% of the powder. The lowest score was shown in the color of the sample with the most PLP added. Flavor was the lowest of 4.93 in the comparison sample without the leaf powder added while bitter taste scored the highest of 5.21 in the sample of 3% powder added. It was also the highest in overall acceptance while the sample with the most powder showed the lowest of 4.03. From these results, it can be said that the preference of bread with PLP seems to decrease when more than 5% of PLP is added.

Cold air drying was conducted on steamed chestnut-sweet potato to improve its quality, convenience, and preference as snack. Steamed sweet potato was dried from 10 to $25^{\circ}C$ for 48 hours, and moisture contents, colors, texture, and taste were evaluated. The lowest moisture content was 4.53% at $25^{\circ}C$. Lightness decreased while other color values (a, b, and ${\Delta}$E) increased with increasing drying temperature and drying time. Reducing sugar and soluble solid contents ranged from 93.22~190.35 mg/g and 17~60 $^{\circ}Brix$, respectively. The highest hardness of chestnut-sweet potato was 25.13 kgf/$cm^2$, and springiness and cohesiveness were 88.60, and 94.87%, respectively, when dried at $25^{\circ}C$ for 48 hours. Sensory evaluation score was highest at $20^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours. The optimum drying conditions were determined to be $19^{\circ}C$ and 39.5 hours by RSM(response surface methodology).
