Persimmons on the trees are often exposed to weather condition of cold temperature before harvest, which affects the fruit quality at harvest time and later storage. This study investigated the effect of the harvest season temperature on the storage quality of 'Fuyu' sweet persimmons. Monitoring the temperature changes in the orchard showed five times of cold temperature below the freezing temperature of persimmon, $-2.1^{\circ}C$, in the harvesting period between mid October and mid November with the lowest being as low as $-5.4^{\circ}C$. Among three different harvestings, the tertiary one at mid November showed decreased 'L' value and consistently high 'a' value of color index and high reduction in hardness during 150 days storage of fruits at $0^{\circ}C$ showing freeze-injured symptoms, compared to the first one at mid October and the second one at early November. The fruits of first harvest maintained consistently hard texture with increased 'a' color value probably due to postharvest ripening. The tertiary harvest exhibited increase in fructose and glucose contents and decrease in sucrose of the fruits, being very different from the first and secondary harvests which maintained constant level of all three free sugars. Mid November with possible sudden temperature drop is unsuitable period for harvesting sweet persimmons in the quality at harvest and later storage, and thus the harvest should be designed to be done before that time.

The study investigated the quality characteristics of white castella prepared with 0, 10, 20, and 30% burdock (Arctium lappa L.) powder. The specific gravity and weight of castella increased with higher burdock powder content. Height and baking loss rate of castella were not significantly different among the samples. The pH of castella decreased with increasing burdock powder content, whereas $^{\circ}Brix$ of castella increased. Hunter L and b values of crust increased, whereas a values decreased with addition of burdock powder. Hunter L values of crumb decreased, whereas a and b values of crumb increased. The hardness of castella increased upon addition of burdock powder, whereas fracturability, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess, and resilience decreased. DPPH radical scavenging activity and total polyphenol contents increased significantly upon addition of burdock powder (P<0.05). In the sensory evaluation, crust color, crumb color, and flavor were highest in the control group. Moistness had the highest scores in castella containing 20 and 30% burdock powder. Chewiness and overall acceptability were higher in castella added with 10% burdock powder than in the control and other samples, but there were no significant differences among the samples.

Corni fructus is often distributed or processed in the form of dried fruit. However, Corni fructus is hard to develop due to its distinctive sour, bitter, and astringent taste. The aim of this study was to develop a puree to broaden the utilization of fresh Corni fructus. Manufacturing and quality characteristics of Sansuyu jam made from puree were investigated. Seeded Corni fructus pulp consisted of 20 to 26% whole fruit. The moisture and sugar contents of pulp were 52~63% and $15{\sim}31^{\circ}Brix$, respectively. Sterilized distilled water was added to seeded pulp to achieve a constant solids content in the puree. As the pectin content was low as $0.14{\pm}0.01%$, gelling agent was added to produce jam. The moisture content of the puree increased to 83~88%. The sugar content was reduced to $10^{\circ}Brix$. There was no significant difference in pH. DPPH radical scavenging activities of the puree according to ripening rate at a concentration of 100 ppm were 47.92% and 50.96%, respectively. The preference degree was $5.03{\pm}0.97$ at a ripening ratio of 50:50, 2% pectin, and 0.2% carrageenan. These results imply that Corni fructus pulp puree may be appropriate for development as a natural food product.

The quality changes of vegetables including cucumbers, young pumpkins, carrots, radishes, onions by different cooking methods in $90^{\circ}C$ water, 0.5% NaCl solution, 1.0% NaCl solution and $400^{\circ}C$ superheated steam were investigated. The changes in pH of cooked vegetables were increased. Hunter color system values for L(lightness), a(redness) and b(yellowness) of the vegetables cooked in $400^{\circ}C$ supetbeated steam for 30 seconds were less compared with those in $90^{\circ}C$ water, 0.5% NaCl solution and 1.0% NaCl solution. The microbial growth was inhibited very effectively when the vegetables cooked in $400^{\circ}C$ superheated steam for 30 seconds. After cooked in $90^{\circ}C$ water, 0.5% NaCl solution, 1.0% NaCl solution, $400^{\circ}C$ superheated steam, vitamin C content decreased by different ratio depending on cooking methods and vegetable varieties. Based on the results of the quality changes of cooked vegetables, the superheated steam cooking method showed a positive effect on sterilization and maintaining pH, color, hardness of vegetable tissues, vitamin C content. The data obtained from this study could be utilized as basic information for the optimum conditions of superheated steam cooking to develope HMR(Home Meal Replacement).

Effect of several factors for Preparation of whole egg gel (WEG) on texture and color of WEG were investigated in this study. The factors studied were amount of water addition, heating temperature and time, pH and NaCl. The whole egg gel was prepared by mixing of whole egg and steaming at 100$^{\circ}C$ for 7 min followed by cooling at 22$^{\circ}C$ for 90 min. The results showed that the increase in water addition decreased significantly with viscosity values of whole egg solution (WES) and the addition of more than 50％ water resulted in a significant decrease in the stress at failure (SF) and the hardness of WEG. The color a and b values of WES decreased and the value of WEG also decreased significantly in negative range. The increase in heating temperature decreased the coagulation time and increased in SF while SF decreased. Addition of NaCl up to 1.3％ resulted a significant increase in SF and hardness and a little changes in color of WEG. As the pH of WES changed from 4.0 to 10.0, the viscosity of WES was minimal and SF and hardness were maximal at pH 6.0. The L and b values of WEG were significantly reduced at higher pH values of 8.0.

The characteristics of sponge cakes prepared with replacement of 30, 50, 75, or 100% of sucrose with isomaltooligosaccharide (IOS), fructooligosanharide (FOS), maltitol symp (MS), or maltitol powder (MP), were examined through physical measurement and sensory evaluation. The specific gravities of foams and cake batters were not significantly different among samples (p .0.05). The use of IOS increased the viscosity of cake batter. The cakes containing IOS, FOS, MS, or MP were softer than control cakes (sucrose 100%). Especially cakes prepared with 30, 50％ IOS, or 75, 100％ MP, appeared to be fragile. When increasing levels of IOS or FOS were incorporated in the cake formula, cake crust color was getting darker than that of control cake, whereas cake containing maltitol was getting lighter as the levels of replacement increased. Generally, the volume of cake containing FOS were superior to that of control cake, whereas those of cakes containing above 50% MP were inferior. Sensory analysis of experimental cakes did not show significant differences from the control cake for softness, springiness and gumminess. Sweetness increased replacing the sucrose with FOS, MS or MP (30, 50%) and moistness increased using IOS, FOS, MS, or MP without agreement with moisture contents of cakes. Replacement of 30, 50% sucrose with MS or 30％ with MP did not affect greatly the physical measurements or sensory characteristics studied.

We conducted this study to investigate the quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of noodles combined with Cheongyang hot pepper juice (CPJ). The noodles were evaluated for cooking properties (weight, volume, water absorption, and turbidity), Hunter's color values, texture characteristics, sensory characteristics, capsaicin, dihydrocapsaicin, polyphenol contents, and antioxidant activity. The cooked weight, volume, and turbidity of the cooked treated noodles were not significantly different from the cooked control noodles but water absorption decreased. The Hunter's color L value of the cooked noodles was not significantly different between treatment types, but there was a significantly higher b value with increasing concentrations of CPJ. The texture characteristics (hardness, adhesiveness, springiness, gumminess, and chewiness) of the cooked treated noodles were not significantly different from the cooked control noodles. A sensory evaluation indicated that cooked noodles treated with 2% CPJ were significantly (p<0.05) better than the cooked control noodles. Capsaicin, dihydrocapsaicin, and polyphenol contents, and antioxidant activity were significantly (p<0.05) increased with increasing concentrations of CPJ. In conclusion, CPJ could be used as an ingredient to increase the sensory and antioxidant properties of wheat flour noodles without affecting their quality characteristics.

To investigate effects of binding treatments of branches (FMB, fruiting mother branch; PSB, secondary scaffold branch; SSB, primary scaffold branch) on enlargement and coloring of persimmon 'Fuyu' fruits in ripening period, the branches were bound by steel wire. For eight weeks after binding treatments, Hunter $a^*$ of fruit peel in FMB and SSB binding treatments was more increased than in the others. In fruit characteristics harvested at eight weeks after the binding treatments, the fruit weight was heavier in the binding treatments than in control, the first of those was in SSB binding. The fruit height was higher in SSB binding than in the others, but the fruit diameter was longer in FMB and SSB binding treatments. Solid soluble content was higher in FMB and PSB binding treatments. $Chroma^*$ of the fruit peel was higher in FMB and PSB binding treatments as Hunter $a^*$ and $b^*$ values were higher and lower in FMB and SSB binding treatments, respectively. Lycopene and $\beta$-carotene content in the fruit peel were higher significantly in PSB and SSB binding treatments, total chlorophyll content in all the binding treatments was lower than in control.

We simulated the current limiting characteristics of resistive and inductive SFCLs with 100 ${\omega}$ of impedances for a single and double line-to-ground faults in the 154 kV grid between two substations nearby Seoul. The transient current at the faults includes not. only high AC current up to 44 kA but also significant DC component as high as 4 kA. The DC current is greater and lasts longer for the double line-to-ground fault than for the single line-to-ground fault. The inductive SFCL limited the fault current more effectively than the resistive one. The DC component, however, was greater and diminishes slower for the inductive SFCL than for the resistive one.

야채 soup mix의 제조조건이 야채죽의 물리적 및 관능적 특성에 대한 영향을 조사하였다. Soup mix의 제조조건인 주입액의 양 (쌀 무게에 대한 물의 체적 비), 버섯, 당근 그리고 대파의 첨가량(쌀 무게에 대한 잣의 무게 비)에 따른 물리적 특성과 관능적 특성의 변화를 모니터링 하고자 반응 표면분석법 (response surface methodology, RSM)을 사용하였으며, 이때 실험계획은 중심합성계획법을 적용하였다. 요인변수(Xn)를 중심합성계획에 따라 17실험구로 구분하여 조리실험을 실시하였고, 이들 요인변수에 의해 영향을 받는 반응변수(Yn)는 야채죽의 물리적 특성으로 하여 회귀분석에 사용하였다. 회귀분석에 의한 모델식의 예측에는 SAS (statistical analysis system) program을 사용하였으며, 야채죽의 조리조건이 물리적 및 관능적 특성에 미치는 영향은 SAS program을 이용한 3차원 반응표면분석법으로 해석하였다. 야채의 배합비를 달리한 야채죽의 물리적 특성인 색도 L, a 및 b값에 대한 F-value는 자각 1.50, 11.75 및 5.58이고,유의수준이 각각 0.3044, 0.0019와 0.0169로서 a값과 b값의 유의성이 1% 수준에서 인정되어 이들 제조조건이 a값과 b값에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 점도와 퍼짐성에 대한 유의수준은 각각 0.6920과 0.7528이고, 반응표면회귀식의 $R^2$은 각각 0.4766과 0.4436으로 유의성이 인정되지 않았다. 고형분에 대한 유의수준은 0.2026이고 회귀식의 $R^2$는 0.7107으로서 버섯, 당근 및 대파 첨가량이 고형분의 변화에 영향을 미치지 않은 것을 알 수 있었다. 관능적 특성인 색상에 대하여 soup mix의 제조조건이 야채죽에 미치는 영향은 F-value는 6.23이고, 유의수준이 0.0124으로서 1%수준에서 유의성이 인정되었으며, 회귀식의 $R^2$은 0.8890이다. 향에 대한 유의확률은 0.4555이고 0.05이상이므로 유의성이 인정되지 않아 설정된 범위내에서 야채죽의 향에 대하여 크게 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 점성에 대한 반응표면회귀식의 $R^2$은 0.8134로서 그 유의성이 5%수준에서 인정되었다. 맛과 전반적 기호도에 대하여 야채의 배합비에 따른 반응표면회귀식의 $R^2$은 각각 0.7374와 0.8651이며, 유의화률은 0.1578과 0.0228으로 나타나 전반적인 기호도에 대한 영향은 10% 유의수준에서 영향을 주었다. 결론적으로, 물리적 특성인 색도, 점성, 퍼짐성과 고형분의 함량은 관능적 특성인 색과 비교적 높은 정(正)의 상관을 나타내었으며, 관능적 특성인 향과의 상관은 유의성이 인정되지 않았다. 야채죽 제조를 위한 soup mix의 제조조건에 있어서 야채의 배합비는 색과 점성에 영향을 미치는 가장 주요한 조건이라고 생각된다.
