This study is conducted to investigate the effects of Chinese artichoke powder on the antioxidant activities and the quality characteristics of tofu. Tofus are being prepared with different amounts of Chinese artichoke powder in ratios of 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8% according to the soy milk quantity. According to the increasing contents of Chinese artichoke powder, the yield and turbidity of tofus are significantly increased (p<0.001) whereas the pH levels of tofus are significantly decreased (p<0.001). In terms of color, the L, a and b values are significantly decreased with increasing Chinese artichoke powder concentrations (p<0.001). From the texture profile analysis of the tofus, the chewiness, gumminess and cohesiveness of tofus are significantly decreased (p>0.01) according to the levels of added Chinese artichoke powder content. The contents of isoflavones such as daidzin and genistin are significantly increased with increasing concentrations of Chinese artichoke powder (p<0.001). The microstructure of tofus is being examined by SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope). In the sensory test, the sample which contains 0.4% of Chinese artichoke powder is ranked significantly higher (p>0.001) than the other groups according to several sensory parameters such as appearance, color, flavor, taste, texture and the overall preferences.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate whether addition of konjac gel with three different vegetable powders can increase quality of low-fat frankfurter-type sausage. Methods: Low-fat frankfurter-type sausages were manufactured with formulations containing konjac gel and three vegetable powders (aloe vera, cactus pear, or wheat sprout) as pork fat replacers. The formulations of frankfurters were as follows: NF (normal-fat; 20% pork fat), LF (low-fat; 10% pork fat), KG (low-fat; 10% pork fat+10% konjac gel), and konjac gel with three vegetable powders (KV), such as KV-AV (10% pork fat+10% konjac gel with aloe vera), KV-CP (10% pork fat+10% konjac gel with cactus pear), and KV-WS (10% pork fat+10% konjac gel with wheat sprout). Proximate analysis, pH value, color evaluation, cooking loss, water-holding capacity, emulsion stability, apparent viscosity, texture profile analysis, and sensory evaluation were determined. Results: The konjac gel containing groups showed lower fat content (p<0.05) and higher moisture content than NF group (p<0.05). The pH value of frankfurters was decreased in three KV groups (p<0.05). The three KV groups had increased dark color (p<0.05) compared with KG, and KV-CP had the highest redness (p<0.05). The water-holding capacity and emulsion stability were higher in the three KV groups than KG and LF (p<0.05). Cooking loss was generally decreased in the three KV groups, compared with KG (p<0.05). The apparent viscosity of KV groups was similar with NF group and overall texture properties were improved in KV-CP. In the sensory evaluation, the highest overall acceptability was found in KV-CP groups (p<0.05). Conclusion: The four fat replacers improved physicochemical properties of low-fat frankfurters. Particularly, konjac gel with cactus pear powder seems more acceptable as a pork fat replacer.

This study characterize, classify and evaluates the function of topography on spatial variability of some selected soil properties to assist in designing land management that support uniform agricultural production. The study site, an agricultural land, was part of the derived savanna zone in southwest Nigeria. Four soil profile pits each were established along two delineated toposequence and described following the FAO/UNESCO guidelines. Samples were collected from the identified genetic horizons. Properties of four soil series developed on different positions of the two delineated Toposequence viz upper, middle, lower slopes and valley bottom positions respectively were studied. The soil samples were analysed for selected physical and chemical properties and data generated were subjected to descriptive and inferential statistics. The results showed that soil colour, depth and texture varied in response to changes in slope position and drainage condition. The sand content ranged from 61 to 90% while the bulk density ranged between 1.06 g cm^-3 to 1.68 g cm^-3. The soils were neutral to very strongly acid with low total exchangeable bases. Available phosphorus value were low while the extractable micronutrient concentration varied from low to medium. Soils of Asejire and Iwo series mapped in the study area were classified as Typic isohyperthermic paleustult, Apomu series as Plinthic isohyperthermic paleustult and Jago series as Aquic psamment (USDA Soil Taxonomy). These soils were correlated as Lixisol, Plinthic Lixisol and Fluvisol (World Reference Based), respectively. Major agronomic constraints of the soils associations mapped in the study area were nutrient availability, nutrient retention, slope, drainage, texture, high bulk density and shallow depth. The study concluded that the soils were not homogenous, shows moderate spatial variation across the slope, had varying potentials for sustainable agricultural practices, and thus, the agronomic constraints should be carefully addressed and managed for precision agriculture.

This study aims to analyze the sensory characteristic of cooked rice made with 10 types of rice varieties produced in South Korea using descriptive analysis. Twelve subjects who cook rice regularly, at least once a week, were recruited for the study and participated as descriptive panelists. A total of 29 descriptive terms were developed to describe the sensory characteristics of cooked rice. The findings showed that there were significant differences in the sensory attributes, specifically the appearance and texture attributes among the rice varieties. Among the varieties, Haedeul, Ilpum, and Koshihikari were observed to have a large quantity of rice germ and a relatively yellowish appearance. In contrast, Samkwang, Chamdream, and Yeonghojinmi were relatively whiter than the other samples. Odae, Saecheongmoo, and Sindongjin were rated high in the attributes of roughness, hardness, and chewiness, and Jinsang was rated high in moisture, bitterness, stickiness, and wholeness of rice grains. The differences in the appearance and texture of these rice varieties are likely to significantly impact consumer preferences. Furthermore, the development of customized menus based on the sensory characteristics of the different varieties of rice could encourage consumers to purchase these varieties.

Eggs that have been hard-boiled are frequently used as ready-to-eat food. Refrigerated and frozen storage of hard-boiled eggs causes issues, such as customer rejection owing to textural changes. The objective of this research is to ascertain how storage temperature affects hard-boiled eggs' alteration in texture over time. Medium-sized brown shell eggs were acquired from a local market, boiled at 100℃ for 15 min, and then stored at room temperature (25℃), refrigeration (4℃), and freezing (-18℃) conditions for 0, 12, 24, and 48 h. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), texture profile, visual observation using a gemological microscope, free amino acid content, and color were measured. Freezing had a substantial impact on the eggs' hardness, gumminess, chewiness, and cohesiveness (p<0.05). The FTIR spectrums confirmed the textural changes in bonds of amide A (3,271 cm^-1), amide I (1,626.2 cm^-1), amide II (1,539.0 cm^-1), C=O stretch of COO^- (1,397 cm^-1), asymmetric PO₂^- stretch (1,240 cm^-1). Microscopic images confirmed structural changes in eggs stored at -18℃. The free amino acid content was lower in fresh and frozen eggs than in the rest (p<0.05). However, there was no discernible variation in the egg white's color when eggs were kept at 4℃ (p>0.05). Salmonella spp. was found exclusively in eggs kept at room temperature. In conclusion, hard-boiled eggs did not exhibit structural or chemical changes when stored at 4℃ for up to 48 h compared to freezing and room temperature conditions.

Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of 4-month intensive feeding on the meat quality, fatty acid profile, flavor, and growth performance of grazing Hulunbuir sheep (HBS). Methods: The HBS were selected 4-months after birth in a pasture rearing system as the experimental animals (n = 44, female, average body weight 23.8±2.2 kg) then divided equally into pasture-based grazing fattening (PAS) and concentrate-included intensive fattening (CON) groups for another 4-month finishing. When finished fattening, all animals were slaughtered to collect musculus longissimus dorsi subcutaneous adipose tissue and to investigate the influences on meat quality, fatty acid profile, flavor and growth performance. Results: The results showed lambs in CON group got significantly higher live weight, hot carcass weight, and dressing percentage. The CON group had significantly higher value of redness (a^*), lightness (L^*) and water holding capacity (p<0.05), significantly lower value of Warner-Bratzler shear force than the PAS group (p<0.05). The subcutaneous fat from CON group lambs demonstrated a significantly higher content of C18:1 and C18:2 (p<0.05), but lower C14:0 and C16:0, indicating an increased degree of unsaturated fatty acid. The content of 4-methyloctanoic acid, 4-ethyloctanoic acid and 4-methylnonanoic acid had increased 2 to 4 times, representing a more intense odor in the CON group. However, the values were still lower than most sheep breeds reported, indicating the indoor feeding system could not fundamentally deteriorate the excellent meat characteristic of HBS. Conclusion: It was evident that lambs in CON group exhibited a better meat production performance, improved in meat color, texture and healthier fatty acid profile through pasture-weaned concentrate included intensive fattening system, which offers a good alternative regimen for lamb finishing and has a wide prospection in the HBS meat industry.

수입산 밀가루(ASW+AH)와 쌀가루(오대)를 첨가한 혼합된에 transglutaminase를 첨가하여 반죽 물성 및 가공적 싶을 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. Mixograph의 결과에서, 수입산 밀가루(ASW+AH)에 transglutaminase를 첨가한 mixograph 특성은 transglutaminase를 첨가할수록 각각 stability가 증가하다가 5,000 ppm 이상에서 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 수입산 밀가루에 쌀가루(오대)를 첨가할수록 mixograph 패턴은 매우 불규칙하고 불안정한 패턴을 보여주고 있으며, stability, midline peak time, midline peak height, width at peak등의 파라메터 측정치와 특정한 관련성을 보이지 않았다. 그러나 수입산 밀가루(ASW+AH)와 쌀가루(오대)의 혼합분에 transglutaminase를 첨가함에 따라 이러한 불규칙성이 감소하였다. Farinograph의 결과에서, 수입산 밀가루(ASW+AH)에 첨가한 쌀가루(오대) 함량이 증가할수록 stability와 valormeter value는 급격히 감소하고 weakness는 크게 증가하여 매우 약하고 안정성이 낮은 반죽을 형성하였다. 그러나 transglutaminase를 첨가함에 따라 수입산 밀가루(ASW+AH)에 쌀가루(오대)를 첨가한 복합분의 stability와 valormeter value는 증가하였고, weakness는 감소하였다. 수분 흡수량은 대조군인 수입산 밀가루(ASW+AH)의 반죽에 비하여 쌀가루(오대) 혼합비율이 커질수록 증가하였으며, transglutaminase를 첨가함에 따라 수분 흡수량이 감소하는 경향을 가졌다. Peak time은 수입산 밀가루(ASW+AH)와 쌀가루(오대)를 첨가할수록 짧은 경 향을 나타내었으며, 두 반죽 모두 ttansglutaminase 를 첨가할수록 길어지는 경향을 나타내었다 조리면의 기계적 조직감을 Texture profile analysis(TPA)로 측정한 결과, 쌀가루(오대)를 첨가하여 제조한 혼합분(10, 30, $50\%$)에 transglutaminase(3000, 1000, 7000 ppm)를 첨가함에 따라 검성, 씹힘성, 견고성 등 TPA 파라메터 값이 증가하였고, 10,000 ppm 첨가시에는 비슷한 수치를 나타내거나 감소하였다. 관능평가 결과에서는 쌀가루를 $30\%$ 첨가한 혼합분으로 제조한 조리면의 조직감(씹힘성, 견고성)은 수입산 밀가루에 비해서 낮게 평가되었으나, transglutaminase를 7,000 ppm 첨가한 쌀 혼합분 조리면의 씹힘성이 향상되었다.

본 연구는 산양유로 제조한 Feta 치즈의 이화학적 미생물학적 관능적 특성을 알아보기 위해 제조 후 0 및 4℃에서 숙성시키면서 실험을 실시하였다. 치즈 제조에 사용한 산양유의 일반성분은 지방 3.47%, 단백질 2.87%, 유당 4.40%, 무기물 0.71%, 총고형분 11.48%으로서 casein/fat ratio는 6.40 이었다. 이 산양유로 FDM 40.47%, 수분 함량 59.53%인 Feta 치즈를 제조 하였으며, 이 치즈의 일반성분 함량은 지방 23.50%, 단백질 11.03%, 그리고 회분이 3.79% 이었다. Feta 치즈의 pH는 숙성기간이 지날수록 pH가 낮아졌으며(p<0.01), 숙성온도가 낮을수록 pH가 더 많이 감소하였다(p<0.01). 젖산균 수는 제조 당시에 10.21 log CFU/g 이상으로 나타났으며, 숙성기간이 증가함에 따라 유의적으로 감소하였으며, 숙성 32일 경에도 젖산균의 수는 7.00 log CFU/g 이상으로 높은 수준으로 유지되었다. CIE 색도는 숙성 말기에 L값과 a값이 높게 나타났으며(p<0.01), b 값은 숙성말기에 낮아지는 경향을 나타내었다(p<0.01). Texture profile 분석결과 제조 초기에 hardness 26.66 g, fracturability 26.66g, adhesiveness 683.04, springiness 0.96, cohesiveness 0.52, gumminess 13.75, chewiness 13.17, 그리고 resilience가 0.06을 나타내었으나, 숙성이 진행됨에 따라 adhesiveness의 경우 0℃ 및 4℃ 치즈는 숙성 7일 때에 가장 낮은 값을 나타내었고, 숙성 14일 때에 가장 높은 값을 나타내어 숙성기간이 경과함에 따라 증가함을 알 수 있었다(p<0.01). Cohesiveness는 제조 당일이 가장 낮은 수치를 나타내었으며, 숙성 7일차에 높아졌다가 14일차에 다시 낮아지는 경향을 나타내었다(p<0.01). Gumminess는 제조 당일에 가장 낮은 값을 나타내었으며, 4℃ 치즈는 숙성 14일차에 가장 높은 값을 나타내었으며, 0℃ 치즈는 7일차에 높은 값을 나타내었다(p<0.05). Chewiness도 제조 당일에 가장 낮은 값을 나타내었으며, 0℃ 치즈가 숙성 7일에 가장 높은 값을 나타내었으며, 4℃ 치즈는 14일에 가장 높은 값을 나타내었다. 관능검사결과, 저장 7일차에 짠맛, 쓴맛, 신맛, 발효 취에 대한 강도는 모두 높게 나타났다(p<0.01). 저장 14일에는 냄새 및 짠맛의 강도가 높게 나타났다(각각 p<0.05, p<0.01). 기호성에서는 저장 7일차에 냄새와 저작감에서 다소 낮은 평가를 받았으며(p<0.01), 저장 14일에는 매우 낮은 평가점수를 나타내었으나 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 실제 소비자를 대상으로 한 산양유의 goaty flavour는 관능적인 기호성과 평가에는 저하요인으로 예상되었지만, Feta 치즈 시식 평가에서는 오히려 독특한 맛과 향을 주는 것으로 나타남으로서 향후 산양유 Feta 치즈의 산업화에 긍정적인 영향을 주었다. 산양유 Feta 치즈의 지방산 중에서 단쇄지방산인 c4:0, c6:0, c8:0가 각각 0.16%, 0.88%, 0.91%로 나타났으며 총 함량비(c4:0-c8:0)는 1.04%로 나타났다. 전체지방산 함량 중에서 c16:2 (20.54%), c16:0(13.35%), c18:1w9c(12.02%) 및 18:1t(13.08%)가 높은 비율을 나타내었다. 포화지방산의 비율은 42.06%, 불포화지방산의 비율은 56.03%로 나타났으며, 불포화지방산에는 monoen(29.67%, 10종) 함량이 dien(24.24%, 7종) 보다 높았고, trien과 polyen의 함량은 각각 1.21%(5종) 0.91% (2종)으로 소량 함유되어 있었다.
