Comparative study was performed on noodle characteristics among three domestic wheat varieties (Geurumil, Eunpamil and Alchanmil) and imported one (ASW: Australian Standard White). For the noodle-related characteristics, crude protein, ash and gluten contents were measured, and rheological properties of dough, flour color difference, particle size distribution, cooking properties and sensory properties were evaluated. Crude protein content of Geurumil, Eunpamil and Alchanmil flour were 12.8%, 14.2% and 11.2%, respectively, whereas that of ASW flours was 9.1%. Ash content was the highest in Geurumil (0.56%). The yield of patent flour was the highest in Eunpamil (53.4%) among all the varieties. Higher dough stability with farinogram and maximum viscosity with amylogram were shown in Eunpamil and Alchanmil than those of ASW. The cutting force of cooked noodle from ASW was the lowest maximum, that was measured by texture analyzer. Fairly good color and sensory scores were obtained in cooked noodle of Alchanmil. Studies of noodle-related characteristics indicated that domestic Eunpamil was higher in protein content and flour yield, and Alchanmil was higher dough stability and color, when compared to those of imported ASW. Alchanmil and ASW had good scores in sensory evaluation, especially appearance and color.

In order to improve the quality and yields of barley tea(water extracts), enzymatic hydrolysis was carried out with using three kinds of mired enzymes of ${\alpha}-amylase,\;{\beta}-amylase$ and protease. The barley treated with enzymes were the crushed , soaked and slightly roasted(light brown) Youngsanbori(hulless) and the physical, chemical and sensory characteristics were investigated. The results showed that enzymatic hydrolysis caused a signigicant increase in solid yields (80%) of barley tea, particularly with the mixed enzyme 5,000 which has higher activity of ${\alpha}-amylase$ than the other enzymes. The intrinsic viscosity of barley tea was reduced by enzymatic hydrolysis as the value of dextrose equivalent increased The Hunter L, a, b values was lower for the enzyme treated barley tea but showed not significant difference with reaction time. The organoleptic evaluation clearly showed that both intensity and acceptability of odor and taste was markedly Increased. The roasted nutty, and sweety odor and taste were particular in increase by mixed enzyme 5,000.

The dietary fiber was extracted from apple pomace with various concentrations of acidic, alkaline solvents and water in $24.4{\sim}29.3%$ yield. The extractions of water-soluble dietary fiber with acidic(6.85%) and alkaline solvent(6.55%) were more effective than the water extraction(6.0%). The higher extraction yield was obtained with increased concentration of acidic or alkaline solvents. The content of galacturonic acid was higher in the order, 0.01 M HCl(77.5%)>0.05 M HCl(76.8%)>$H_2O(76.1%)$>0.05 M NaOH(73.8%)> 0.01 M NaOH(69.0%) and the extraction with acidic solvent showed the highest pectin yield. The color value increased by extraction with solvent in higher concentration. And at equal concentration, the color value of alkaline extract was higher than that of acidic exctract. There was no relationship between the color value and the extraction yield of dietary fiber. In the investigation on the rheological properties, the shear stress increased in proportion to galacturonic acid contents. While water-soluble dietary fiber extracted with acid and water represented Newtonian rheological properties, the alkaline extract was inclined to have converting property from pseudoplastic to Bingham pseudoplastic with increment of alkaline concentration. In the studies on the time-dependence of apparent viscosity, the thixotropic property with hysteresis loop was observed in alkaline extract.

Domestic seaweeds Gracilaria verrucosa collected from coastal areas of Namhae, Wando and Yeosoo, Korea were subjected to the examination of yield and quality of agar prepared according to various pretreatment conditions. In alkali treatment at high temperature, higher alkali concentration for one-hour period at $90^{\circ}C$ gave rise to higher yield of agar. In acid treatment, higher yield was obtained by higher acid concentration and longer treating period. Alkali treatment at room temperature gave rise to a slightly decreased yield at higher alkali concentration and longer treating time. Total nitrogen and crude ash of agar samples were greatly decreased by pretreatments. Jelly strength, gelation ability, gelation point and viscosity of agar samples tended to increase as the alkali-treating condition of seaweed became stronger. It was shown that sulfur content of agar had a high negative correlation with jelly strength of its gel. Various alkali treatments of seaweed at room temperature showed no marked difference in agar quality and did not exhibit any good effect comparable to alkali treatment at high temperature.

The aim of this study was to determine the optimal cooking conditions for astringent persimmon concentrates. With increasing time of concentration, the moisture contents and L-, a- and b-values all decreased, whereas the brix level and viscosity increased. The crude protein, fiber and ash increased and the vitamin C decreased by concentrating. The pH was the lowest at 23 hrs of boiling concentration. With longer boiling concentration time, the fructose, glucose, and sucrose levels increased but the maltose level decreased. The DPPH radical scavenging effects of astringent persimmon concentrates were more than 92%. The total phenolics, flavanol tannin, leucoanthocyanin, and chlorogenic acid levels increased with longer boiling concentration time. In the sensory evaluation of the astringent persimmon concentrates, overall acceptability was the best at the 23-hr boiling concentration. From the above results, the 23-hr boiling, astringent persimmon concentrates could be useful for cooking in terms of obtaining the high amounts of phenolic compounds as functional compounds and overall acceptability.

Total phenolic content was the highest in 60% ethanol extracts at 21.91 mg/g, and inhibitory activity against tyrosinase of 60% ethanol extracts was higher than ethanol extracts of other concentration. The inhibitory compounds against tyrosinase from Persimmon leaves were purified using Sephadex LH-20, MCI-gel CHP-20 column chromatography with gradient elution. Two purified compounds were isolated as a result. The chemical structures of each compound were determined and identified using $^1H$-NMR and $^{13}C$-NMR, FAB-Mass. The compounds were confirmed as (+)-gallocatechin and prodelphinidin B-3. The tyrosinase inhibitory activities of purified (+)-gallocatechin and prodelphinidin B-3 were 29.5 and 40.2%, respectively. The inhibitory activities of (+)-gallocatechin and prodelphinidin B-3 against melanin biosynthesis in melanoma cell were 32.5 and 46.7%. The safety of essence with tyrosinase inhibitory compounds from persimmon leaves was also assessed by various safety profiles. First, changes in pH (4.90~4.95) and viscosity (23,000~26,000 cP) was not detected for 60 days. Essence also showed stability against temperature and light for 60 days. All these findings suggest that extracts from persimmon leaves have a great potential as a cosmetical ingredient with a potent whitening effect.

The quality characteristics and antioxidant activities were evaluated for jams containing fructooligosaccharide (FTO) and FTOS (sucrose 50%+FTO 50%) substituted for sucrose. The endpoint of jam preparation was determined to be sweetness of $64^{\circ}Brix$. Moisture contents differed among the treatments, whereas acidity did not. Reducing sugar content and viscosity were highest in the FTO (0.144%, 126,800 cP), and the lowest in control (0.074%, 101,600 cP). Lightness (L value), redness (a value), and yellowness (b value) values of the Hunter color system were highest in the FTO sample. Hardness and springiness of textural properties were the highest in the FTO sample as well. Antioxidant activities were the highest in the FTO sample with the lowest $IC_50$ values (42.3 mg/g for DPPH and 22.4 mg/g for hydroxyl radical scavenging activities). Total phenolic content was the highest in the FTO sample among all treatments. The overall acceptance score of black garlic jam containing FTO was the highest. Based on these results, it is suggested that FTO was appropriate for achieving good qualities such as antioxidative activity in black garlic jam.

Flour characteristics and end-use quality of 10 commercial flours produced from Korean wheat (Kcom) were evaluated to assess consumersatisfaction with Korean wheat compared with commercial flour (Com) prepared from imported wheats. Two types of Kcom, whole wheatflour and white wheat flour, were found in various markets. Whole wheat flours showed higher ash and protein content, lower lightness, and higher water absorption in mixography, than did white wheat flours. The amylose content of Kcom was similar to that of Com, but peak viscosity and breakdown of Kcom were lower than those of Com. Noodle dough sheet prepared from white flours of Kcom was thinner and lighter than dough sheets prepared using whole wheat flours. Compared to Com, Kcom showed lower noodle dough sheet lightness. The hardness of cooked noodles prepared with Kcom was similar to that of noodles made from Com. When used for bread baking, Kcom showed lower loaf volume, lower crumb lightness, and higher crumb firmness, than did Com.

This study was carried out to investigate the properties of crude exopolysaccaride (CEPS) produced by Streptococcus thermophilus LFG in goat milk. The yields of CEPS from yogurt cultured with Str. thermophilus LFG were greater at higher temperatures $(40-45^{\circ}C)$ than at lower temperatures $(30-35^{\circ}C)$. Goat milk yogurt had lower viscosity values than cow milk yogurt. However, the CEPS yield was higher in goat milk yogurt than in cow milk yogurt. The yields of CEPS from yogurt were also higher in cultured milk containing 3% glucose (14-21%), and 3% sucrose (4-16%) relative to the control yogurt. Antioxidant activities were higher in goat milk yogurt supernatant (21%) and its CEPS (28%) than cow milk yogurt supernatant (11%) and its CEPS (24%). The amino acid contents of CEPS were higher in yogurt using goat milk than that using cow milk. The CEPS extracted from goat milk yogurt produced by Str. thermophilus LFG consists of carbohydrate (37% w/w) and protein (63% w/w). The CEPS consisted of monosaccharides such as glucose 56.45% (w/w), galactose 42.35% (w/w), galactosamine 1.37% (w/w), glucosamine 1.09% (w/w) and fucose 0.27% (w/w).
