The present study was conducted to investigate quality characteristics of Nochi made with malted barley flour with (Cl) and without hull (C2), comparing with Nochi that was treated with different sources of commercial amylases. There was higher level of moisture content (18.4%) in Nochi treated with fungal ${\alpha}$-amylase (FU) comparing with the other Nochi samples. However, Nochi that was treated with bacterial ${\alpha}$-amylase and ${\beta}$-amylase (BA-${\beta}$) had the lowest level of moisture content (11.2%). Nochi samples which were treated with thermostable ${\alpha}$-amylase and fungal ${\alpha}$-amylase(TE-FU) were different from traditional Nochi samples in mechanical characteristics. According to the results of sensory evaluation, Cl was similar to C2 except in cohesiveness and malt flavor. TE-FU and Bh-${\beta}$ were not different from traditional Nochi in cohesiveness, sweetness and overall desirability.

The physicochemical and sensory qualities of pumpkin jams replaced sucrose with sugar alcohols were investigated during storage at 2$0^{\circ}C$. Pumpkin jam was prepared with steamed ground pumpkin, mixed with sucrose only(50%), sorbitol (sucrose 30%＋sorbitol 20%) or maltitol (sucrose 30%＋maltitol 20%). Final sweetness of each pumpkin jam was 64$^{\circ}$ Brix. During 60 days of storage there were no differences in acidity and pH among treatments. Reducing sugar content was higher in sucrose, compared to maltitol or sorbitol. During storage, Hunter L, a and b values increased; L and b values were the highest in maltitol and a value were the highest in sucrose compared to the other sugars. Adhesiveness and hardness of textural properties were the highest in sugar and the lowest in maltitol. Sensory evaluation results showed that the mean scores of color, clarity, flavor and overall acceptability were the highest in maltitol, compared to sucrose or sorbitol. Physicochemical and sensory characteristics of pumpkin jams during storage in a PCA plot comprised of first principal component (58.79%) and second principal component (20.94%).

Sikhye is a traditional sweet rice drink in Korea by $\beta$-amylase's saccharifing action. Sikhye has great potentiality for commercial beverage because of It's characteristic taste and flavors. But, the chemical compositions and production methods of Sikhye are little known. The total amount of carbohydrate of sixteen Sikhye selected in Korean market was 11~15%. The reducing sugar by the Somogyi-Nelson's method was measured 0.4~2% as maltose, which has little influence on the sweetness of Sikhye. While sucrose content was about 10% by the TLC and Seliwanoff analysis. It means that carbohydrate in Sikhye was almost sucrose. Furthermore the most of Sikhye has brown color and turbidity. To improve the quality of Korean Sikhye, it is necessary to increase the production of maltose and to reduce brown color and turbidity, without adding sucrose.

The objectives of this study was to investigate the sensory and quality characteristics of Solsulgi made from rice flour and glutinous rice flour containing 1, 2, or 3% of pine leaves powder. The results of sensory evaluation showed that Solsulgi containing 1% pine leaves powder had high overall acceptability, chewiness and sweetness preference. In the results of textural analysis, the hardness was decreased by adding pine leaves powder. Hunter color L-value of Solsulgi decreased by increasing the level of pine leaves powder. The more pine leaves powder was added, the a-value and b-value of Solsulei were decreased. The moisture content was higher in Solsulgi with sugar than honey and oligo-saccharide.

The objective of this study was to investigate the sensory and quality characteristics of Gamjeobyung containing different ratios of ingredients such as heated potato flour(30%, 40%, 50%), potato starch(30%, 40%), sugar, honey, and water by sensory evaluation and mechanical examination. The results of sensory evaluation showed that Gamjeobyung containing 30% heated potato flour, and potato starch had higher scores in overall acceptability, color, flavor, grain, moistness, chewiness and sweetness preferance. In the textural analysis of Gamjeobyung, the cohesivenss, springiness, adhesiveness were the highest in the samples with 30% potato starch, and the chewiness, gumminess, and hardness were the highest in the 40% added samples. The hunter's color L value and b-value of Gamjeobyung was decreased and a-value was increased of potato starch. The moisture content of Gamjeobyung was higher in the samples with heated potato flour than the samples with potato starch.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of black pigmented rice flour and honey syrup which were added different amounts to the rice on the quality of Rice Dasik. The sensory scores which evaluated for color, flavor, sweetness. softness, melting in mouth, swallowness, sticky and texture revealed that Dasik made with 20∼30% black pigmented rice flour and 70% honey syrup were the most higher. Degree of lightness, redness and yellowness were decreased as increasing of black pigmented rice flour The values of springness, gumminess, cohesiveness, adhesiveness, hardness and chewiness showed decreasing tendency in add of 70% honey syrup than that of 60% addition.

To investigate the changes of taste perception by aging, sixty one healthy elderly people and sixty five young adults were participated in the study. Most preferred levels of salt sour and sweet taste were chosen in bean sprout soup radish salad and yaksing respectively. Threshold levels of each taste were also chosen in NaCl solution for salt taste in citric acid solution for sour taste and in sucrose solution for salt taste, in citric acid solution for sour taste and in sucrose solution for sweet taste. The results are as follow: 1.Most preferred salt concentration in bean sprout soup was significantly higher in the elderly than in the young adults(p$\leq$0.001). There was no difference in sour taste preference of radish salad in both age groups. Most preferred sweetness in yacksig was significantly higher in both elderly men and women(p$\leq$0.001) 2. Threshold levels of salt and sweet taste were significantly higher in the elderly (p$\leq$0.001) However there was no difference in threshold level of sour taste in both age groups.

In this study, we investigated the effects of sweeteners on the quality of Kakdugi through the addition of 1.8% sugar, 0.006% sodium saccharin or 0.006% stevioside using a physicochemical test and sensory evaluation during fermentation at $20^{\circ}C$. The addition of sugar to Kakdugi resulted in the lowest pH and the highest total acidity relative to the control and experimental groups during the fermentation period. The number of lactic acid microorganism gradually increased and then decreased. The sensory evaluation revealed that the addition of sodium saccharin to Kakdugi resulted in the highest sweet smell and taste followed by the addition of stevioside. The addition of sodium saccharin to Kakdugi showed the highest sweet taste and the best texture, and the sweetness compensated for the sour smell and taste.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of addition ratio of reddish-brownpigmented rice(Suwon 451) on the color difference, mechanical characteristics and gelatinization degree, sensory characteristics of Seolgid-deok. As the amount of reddish-brown pigmented rice was increased, redness was getting increased, lightness and yellowness was getting decreased. In hardness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness and chewiness, as the amount of pigmented rice was increased, was getting decreased and springiness was getting increased. As the amount of pigmented rice was increased in Seolgiddeok, gelatinization was getting increased. In sensory evaluation, quality characteristics of Seolgiddeok with 20% reddish-brown pigmented rice added was better in color, sweetness and overall quality than those of Seolgiddeok without reddish-brown pigmented rice.

The pollination activity of honeybees(Apis melltfera L.) were investigated at the green-house peach blossom of Cheongdo Peach Experiment Station in Korea during the early spring from 2/28/02 - 3/4/02. Furthermore, the differences of ripened fruits, such as bearing ratio, fruit weight, diameter, hardness, sweetness, and acidity were measured to compare the effects with honeybee, artificial, honeybee+artificial, and none pollination.
