This study was conducted to measure the moisture content of powdered food using RF impedance spectroscopic method. In frequency range of 1.0 to 30㎒, the impedance such as reactance and resistance of parallel plate type sample holder filled with wheat flour and red-pepper powder of which moisture content range were 5.93∼-17.07%w.b. and 10.87 ∼ 27.36%w.b., respectively, was characterized using by Q-meter (HP4342). The reactance was a better parameter than the resistance in estimating the moisture density defined as product of moisture content and bulk density which was used to eliminate the effect of bulk density on RF spectral data in this study. Multivariate data analyses such as principal component regression, partial least square regression and multiple linear regression were performed to develop one calibration model having moisture density and reactance spectral data as parameters for determination of moisture content of both wheat flour and red-pepper powder. The best regression model was one by the multiple linear regression model. Its performance for unknown data of powdered food was showed that the bias, standard error of prediction and determination coefficient are 0.179% moisture content, 1.679% moisture content and 0.8849, respectively.

This study examined the effects of Boehmerianivea powder on the functional and sensory characteristics of dumpling shell. Various dumpling shell samples were prepared with wheat flour containing different amounts of Boehmerianivea powder. The instrumental characteristics were examined and sensory evaluations were performed. According to the amylograph data, the composite Boehmerianivea powder-wheat flour samples had increased gelatinization temperatures with increasing Boehmerianivea powder content; whereas the initial viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$, viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$ after 15 minutes, and the maximum viscosity were reduced. The L, a and b Hunter's color values decreased with increasing Boehmerianivea powder content. In addition to the cooked weight, the cooked volume and turbidity of dumpling shell increased with increasing level of Boehmerianivea powder. In terms of the textural characteristics, the addition of Boehmerianivea powder increased the chewiness, smoothness and adhesiveness. The DPPH free radical scavenging activity increased significantly with increasing content of Boehmerianivea powder (p<0.05). Finally, the results of the sensory properties indicated that 5% Boehmerianivea powder had the highest scores. These results suggest that Boehmerianivea powder can be applied to dumpling shells to achieve high quality and functionality.

The objectives of this research were to 1) isolate and identify thermophilic bacteria for food waste treatment; 2) investigate the capability of food waste treatment using Bacillus species; and 3) develop air-dried Bacillus starters for food waste treatment. Five Bacillus species were isolated from food wastes and identified as Bacillus licheniformis (B. licheniformis) G1, Bacillus circulans C2, Bacillus subtilis (B. subtilis) E1, Bacillus vanillea F1, and Bacillus atrophaeus G2 based on 16S rDNA sequencing. Each identified Bacillus and the mixture of Bacillus species were cultivated in the standard food waste at $45^{\circ}C$ for 8 d. Changes in cell count, solid contents, and pH of the food waste were monitored during cultivation. Air-dried Bacillus cell powders were prepared using wheat flour and lactomil as excipients, and the cell count and survival rate were determined. The cell count of B. licheniformis G1 exhibited the highest number among the tested Bacillus (${\sim}10^8CFU/mL$). The greatest reduction in solid contents of food waste was achieved by B. subtilis E1 (22.6%). The mixture of B. licheniformis G1 and B. subtilis E1 exhibited a synergistic effect on the reduction of solid contents. Lactomil was determined as better excipient than wheat flour based on the greatest survival rate of 95%.

This study was done to provide the basic information of bread made with curry powder. The amounts of curry powder used were 0 to 3% based on the wheat flour weight. The quality of bread was investigated by evaluation of the specific loaf volume, water absorption capacity, color, sensory quality and texture. The weight of bread decreased with the increase of curry power contents, but there were no significant differences among 0.5, 1 and 2% added curry powder bread. The volume and specific loaf volume also decreased with the increase of curry power contents, but those decreases were not significant between 1% one and 2% one. The water absorption capacities were not affected by the addition of curry powder. The lightness and redness decreased with an increase of curry powder content in the bread, while yellowness increased significantly(p<0.01). The result of the sensory evaluation showed that total acceptabilities of appearance, aroma, texture and taste in the bread with 0.5% and 1% curry powder were significantly higher than the control group and the other groups. Overall quality was negatively affected by the yellowness, odor, hot and bite taste of added curry powder. The factors affecting on the overall quality of the bread with added curry powder were in order of taste quality > curry powder odor > texture quality > aroma quality > springiness > wheat flour odor.

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.

This study aims effective use of soymilk residue, by-product of soymilk production, and making noodles by mixing soymilk residue with wheat flour. The results of viscosity property, cooking test of dry noodles, texture test of cooked noodles, and sensory test of cooked noodles were as follows. The color of cooked noodles were slightly shifted to yellowness according to the mixing of soymilk residue. The mixing of soymilk residue resulted in the decrease of texture and the loss of solids due to the decrease of visccelasity. Na-alginate, Na-C.M.C., guar gum, and crude gluten were added to improve the texture of noodles mixed with soymilk residue. As the results, either Na-alginate or guar gum was very effective in increasing the viscosity of composite flour and either guar gum or crude gluten was very effective in improving cooking quality. The texture of noodles supplemented by Na-alginate 1.0%, Na-C.M.C. 2.0%, guar gum 0.5%, or crude gluten 2.0% was similar to that of wheat flour noodles. Complex additives mixed with two different additives were very effective in improving noodle-making characteristics. Especially, the properties of the soymilk residue mixed noodles supplemented by crude gluten 1.0% and Na-C.M.C. 1.0% or crude gluten 1.0% and gum 0.5% were nearly the same in the texture organoleptic properties compared with those of wheat flour noodles.

In order to determine optimum condition for the Ko-Choo-Jang (red-pepper-paste) processing, chemical analysis, mixed ratio, and sensory teat, resulted as follows. 1. The best nutritional value could be obtained after three hours at $60^{\circ}C$, which proved to be the optimum temperature in koji digestion of starch paste. 2. The component ratio of wheat flour to koji-powder was two to one giving the best digestion. 3. The mixing ratio of salt and red-pepper-powder and flour-koji was determined as 1 : 1.5 : 3 by sensory tests. 4. The highest reducing sugar content appeared in a digested mixture using glutinous rice as a starch source and the reducing sugar increased continuously with decreasing, total sugar content in almost every mixture of starches. 5. As a starch source, glutinous rice powder produced the highest total sugar in the beginning stages, however, after 10 day's curing produced less sugar than rice powder. 6. The order of total nitrogen content in the cured paste was recorded as wheat-flour, rice-powder, corn-powder, glutinous-powder, barley-powder, and sweet potato-starch. 7. Amino-nitrogen was increased with curing and the highest, value was observed in the case of wheat flour. 8. In sensory test, Ko-Choo-Jang made of glutinous rice-powder resulted in the best taste.

This study was conducted to establish a method to analyze biurea decomposed from azodicarbonamide in processed foods such as wheat flour and bread. New method was developed using high performance liquid chromatography mass/mass spectrometry to determine biurea in wheat flour and bakery products. The recovery rate was 94.3-112.5%. The limit of detection for biurea was 0.003 mg/kg, and the limit of quantification was 0.01 mg/kg. The monitoring results for biurea content using established methods showed that biurea was detected at 2.76 mg/kg in the azodicarbonamide-detected flour (detection rate, 2%). The detection rate in processed foods such as baked goods was 27% (16/59). The detection range was 0.19-18.01 mg/kg (average, 3.79 mg/kg). However, it was thought that the detection level was safe due to much lower values than the standard (45 mg/kg). As a result, the newly established biurea analytical method will contribute to the management of azodicarbonamide in processed foods such as wheat flour and bakery products.
