This study was conducted to find out optimum conditions for kanjang fermented with barley bran. The correlation between taste components and sensory evaluation score was analyzed with stepwise multiple regression analysis. It was revealed that the taste of kanjang was explained with the mix of free amino acids, free sugars and organic acids. The highest multiple correlation coefficient was obtained from absolute value transformed with logarithm. Thus, stepwise multiple regression analysis was conducted with absolute value transformed with logarithm, for which F-value was highest and standard error of estimation was lowest among the multiple regression models transformed with six variables. The stepwise multiple regression analysis showed that the taste components which most contribute to the quality of taste of kanjang fermented with barley bran was salty taste component followed by palatable taste component, and bitter taste component.

This study was performed to evaluate the quality characteristics of Sikhyes (SBE-5, SBE-10, SBE-30, and SBE-50) prepared using various concentrations (5%, 10%, 30%, and 50%) of Sasa borealis extracts (SBE). There were no significant changes of pH and total acid contents in Sikhyes prepared with various concentration of SBE. Sikhye SBE-30 and Sikhye SBE-50 showed significantly higher contents in sweetness, reducing sugar, total polyphenol and flavonoid than other Sikhyes. In color, the more SBE was added, each Sikhye appeared the decreasing of L value, the increasing of b value and turbidity. In DPPH radical scavenging activity, there were no difference between Sikhye control (SBE free) and Sikhye SBE-5. But DPPH radical scavenging activity of Sikhye SBE-10, SBE-30 and SBE-50 increased proportionally as the concentration of SBE in Sikhyes were increased. The evaluation for taste tended to get high score in Sikhye SBE-30 and Sikhye SBE-50. The color preference decreased by additon of SBE. Overall preference showed a trend of decreasing in Sikhye SBE-50. These results indicates that the SBE could be beneficiary for preparation of Sikhye due to anti-oxidative effect, and the proper amounts of SBE would be about 30%.

Utilization of soluble protein recovered from surimi wastewater using calcium powder of cuttle bone were examined. The crude ash content of the heat-induced surimi gel was increased linearly by increasing substitution ratio of recovered protein-ATC toward commercial surimi. Moisture (approximately $76\%$) and lipid $(0.2\%)$ contents were not change, but their protein contents were decreased 15.7 to $14.3\%$ depend on increasing of substitution ratio. The white index of the heat-induced surimi gel by color meter was increased up to $10\%$ of substitution ratio. There were no difference between $0\%\;and\;5\%$ substituted surimi gel in the gel strength. The sensory score on white index and texture of the heat-induced surimi gel did not change in 0 to $10\%$ as a substitution ratio of recovered protein-ATC toward commercial surimi, while decreased in more $15\%.$ The optimal substitution ratio of recovered protein-ATC as a bulking agent was $10\%.$ The heat-induced surimi gel prepared with $10\%$ substitution of recovered protein-ATC was similar to the content and composition of total amino. acids, and superior to calcium content and the ratio of calcium and phosphorus toward those of commercial surimi.

Background: Cancer is a worldwide health problem and pain is among the most common and unpleasant effects affecting well-being of cancer patients. Accurate description of pain can help physicians to improve its management. Many English tools have been developed to assess pain. Onkly a limited number of these are applied in Arab countries. Our aim was to assess the quality, the nature and the severity of pain using the short McGill Pain Questionnaire (SF-MPQ) on cancer patients in the National Institute of Oncology (NIO) in Rabat, Morocco. Materials and Methods: The tool used is the SF-MPQ inspired from the Arabic version of the MPQ. The subjects were cancer patients (N=182) attending the NIO, from 24th October 2015 to 8th January 2016, aging ${\geq}18$ years old, experiencing pain and coming to have or to update their pain medication. Results: The rate of participation was 96.3%. Eight patients had difficulties to express their pain using descriptors, but could use the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and the body diagram. The most frequent sensory descriptors were 'Throbbing', 'Shooting', 'Hot-Burning'. The most used affective descriptor was 'Tiring-Exhausting'. The mean VAS was 6.6 (2.4). The mean score of all items was 11.9 (7.8). The patients were suffering from severe pain. The internal consistency of the form was s acceptable. Conclusions: The findings indicate that most of the patients attending the pain center of the NIO could use the descriptors of the SF-MPQ to describe their pain. They indicate the usefulness of the SF-MPQ to assess the nature and the severity of pain in cancer patients. This tool should be tested in other Moroccan and Arabic contexts associated with other tools in clinical trials.

This study was carried out to find a cholesterol removal rate, flavor development, and bitter amino acid productions in Cheddar cheese treated with -cyclodextrin ($\beta$-CD): l) Control (no homogenization, no $\beta$-CD), and 2) Milk treatment (1000 psi milk homogenization, 1 % $\beta$-CD). The cholesterol removal of the cheese were 79.3%. The production of short-chain free fatty acids (FF A) increased with a ripening time in both control and milk treated cheese. The releasing quantity of short-chain FFA was higher din milk treated cheese than control at 5 and 7 mo ripening. Not much difference was found in neutral volatile compounds production between samples. In bitter-tasted amino acids, milk treatment group produced much higher than control. In sensory analysis, texture score of control Cheddar cheese significantly increased, however, that in cholesterol-reduced cheese decreased dramatically with ripening time.

In this study we examined the antioxidant activity and fermentation characteristics of black rice wine. The antioxidant activity of black rice wine was higher than the control, and DPPH radical scavenging activity showed a correlation with the anthocyanin content of rice wine. The pH remarkably decreased until 3 days of fermentation, and the gradually decreased. The reducing sugar and free sugar content reached a maximum at 1 day of fermentation due to enzyme activity. The amount of organic acids, especially lactic acid, increased during the fermentation period. Lactic acid bacteria and yeast count increased with time and amount of black rice. The L color value increased during fermentation regardless of treatments, and the a color value increased with ratio of black rice due to anthocyanin. For this reason, color was given a high score in black rice wine. But overall preference was high in rice wine made with less than 20% of black rice.

How do we use onggi, Korean earthenware, for container of dough during fermentation instead of stainless steel container? How does it affect the flavor of bread if onggi tray is used in baking instead of steel tray? We tried to confirm those. As a result, the characteristics of onggi made positive effect on dough in fermenting room. The time, when the temperature of the center in the dough is equilibrated to that of surface on the dough, take shorter in onggi than in stainless steel. It could make the temperature of dough maintained evenly with little deviation, which could result in shorter fermentation time. Volume and surface color of the bread baked on onggi tray were better than on steel tray. The bread baked on onggi tray got higher score on overall acceptability in sensory test than on steel tray. Therefore, if onggi is used during baking, it could produce better quality of bread like making positive effect on fermented foods.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of wine ripening on quality characteristics such as chemical compositions, Hunter's color, rheological properties, water activity, pH, TBARS value, VBN content, total plate count and sensory score. Beef jerky was prepared by three types such as beef jerky containing water 50 ml (T0), beef jerky containing water 25 ml and wine 25 ml (T1), and beef jerky containing wine 50 ml (T2). The moisture, crude protein, crude fat, crude ash, $L^*$ (lightness), $a^*$ (redness), $b^*$ (yellowness), hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness were not significantly different among the beef jerky. The Aw, pH and TBARS value were not significantly different among the beef jerky, the VBN content and total plate count of T2 had the lowest among the beef jerky (p<0.05). The flavor of T2 was superior to the T0 (p<0.05), and the taste, color, tenderness, juiciness and overall acceptability were not significantly different among the beef jerky.
