This study evaluated the characteristics and antioxidant properties of cookies prepared with different amounts (0%, 1%, 3%, 5%, and 7%) of Lentinus edodes water extract (LEWE). The baking loss rate of cookies increased as the amount of LEWE increased (p<0.05). The pH of cookies significantly decreased when amounts of LEWE increased (p<0.05), but spread factor, leavening rate, and moisture content showed no significant difference among the samples. L value and b value of cookies significantly decreased when amounts of LEWE increased (p<0.05), but a value of cookies significantly increased when amounts of LEWE increased (p<0.05). Hardness was higher in the 7% LEWE cookies. Chewiness and brittleness increased with increasing LEWE concentration, but cohesiveness and springiness showed no significant differences among the samples. Total polyphenol content and DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity significantly increased upon the addition of LEWE (p<0.05). In a sensory evaluation, the appearance, color, and taste of the cookies were rated higher in groups containing 0% LEWE, but the flavor, texture, and overall acceptability scores were highest for cookies with 1% LEWE added. These results suggest that cookies prepared by adding 1-3% LEWE achieve the best sensory evaluation and antioxidant activity.

This study was carried out to investigate the total polyphenol content and DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity of hot water (EIW) and 80% ethanol (EIE) extracts of Enteromorpha intestinalis and the quality characteristics of Topokkidduk prepared with different amounts (0, 1, 3, and 5%) of Enteromorpha intestinalis powder (EIP). The total polyphenol contents of the EIW and EIE extracts were 2.04 and 6.73 mg tannic acid equivalents (TAE)/g, respectively. The DPPH radical scavenging activities of EIW and EIE were markedly increased in a dose-dependent manner, and were about 19.74% and 81.69%, respectively, at 10 mg/ml. The moisture content was higher at 0% EIP (p<0.05). The L value and the a value of Topokkidduk significantly decreased when the amounts of EIP increased (p<0.05), but the b value of Topokkidduk significantly increased when the amounts of EIP increased (p<0.05). Hardness, chewiness, adhesiveness, springiness, and brittleness increased with increasing EIP concentration. The cohesiveness was higher at 3% EIP, but no significant difference was noted between 0% and 1% EIP. The total polyphenol content and DPPH radical scavenging activity significantly increased upon addition of EIP (p<0.05). A sensory evaluation revealed a higher color, texture, and taste of Topokkidduk in groups containing 0% EIP, but the flavor was highest for Topokkidduk with 0% EIP added. Overall acceptability was higher at 0% EIP, but no significant difference was noted between 0 and 1%. These results suggest that Enteromorpha intestinalis has great potential as a source for natural health products.

The physicochemical properties and antioxidant activities of aged ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) were investigated every four days during the twenty days of aging process and compared with fresh ginger. Browning intensity and redness value were significantly increased compared to fresh ginger; however, lightness and yellow values were significantly decreased. Total sugar content was the highest during the second step and decreased significantly after the third step. The content of gingerol decreased with aging whereas 6-shogaol increased from 17.7 to 34.1 times the baseline. Total phenolic and flavonoid contents were the highest during the second step and decreased in the subsequent steps. The radical scavenging activities and reducing power were the highest during the second and third steps, respectively, and then they gradually decreased. The antioxidant activities of aged ginger during the aging process showed a high correlation with browning intensity, 6-shogaol, total sugar, and total phenolic content. Therefore, our study suggested that aging during the second and third steps were effective in optimizing antioxidant activity.

In this study, the quality characteristics of rice cookies supplemented with different types of insect powder (Tenebrio molitor, Protaetia brevitarsis, and Gryllus bimaculatus) were assessed according to the quantity of insect powder used (0, 1, 2.5, 5, and 7.5 g). No significant differences were observed in rice cookie densities or water content. The pH value and spread factor decreased with increasing insect powder content (p<0.05); however, a significant increase was observed in the loss rate (p<0.05). Crude ash, crude fat, and crude protein content significantly increased with higher concentrations of insect powder (p<0.05). Moreover, lightness and yellowness decreased, whereas redness increased with higher insect powder concentrations (p<0.05). Hardness significantly decreased, whereas the antioxidant capacities of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radicals increased with higher insect powder concentrations (p<0.05). Finally, insect powder can prove a valuable resource in rice cookie production, considering its nutritional value, consumer preference, and antioxidant properties.

In this study, the quality characteristics of Jeung-pyun with different amounts of Makgeolli (50, 100, 150, and 200 mL) were investigated, and standardization of the Jeung-pyun production process is suggested. Higher Makgeolli contents resulted in an increase in Jeung-pyun qualities such as the b value, air cell size, springiness, and cohesiveness, whereas Jeung-pyun characteristics such as the L values, pH, number of air cells, hardness, and gumminess significantly decreased. The specific volume was highest following method M-150, and the expansion rate was lowest following method M-200. Altering the Makgeolli content did not significantly differ in moisture content and b values. In the sensory evaluation results, the M-150 method produced the highest-ranking results for all tested items (i.e., overall acceptability, appearance, flavor, taste, and texture). Therefore, this study suggests that Jueng-pyun produced with the M-150 mixing ratio has excellent quality and sensory characteristics. Furthermore, the results of this study can be used as preliminary data for the standardization of Jueng-pyun production.

This study examined the antioxidant activities of noni juice (NJ) extracts using various ethanol ratios and quality characteristics of Konjak jelly (KJ) supplemented with NJ. The total polyphenol content of 0% EtOH extract (EE) was higher than that of the other samples. The 100% EE contained the highest amount of total flavonoids. The 50% EE showed higher DPPH radical scavenging activity (SA) than the other samples. ABTS⁺ radical SA was the highest at 100% EE. The pH and moisture content of KJ decreased as the amount of NJ increased. The sugar content of KJ increased with an increase in the amount of NJ. Hardness and gumminess showed an increasing tendency, while L and b values decreased with the addition of NJ. Regarding consumer acceptability, 25% noni KJ was evaluated to be high in color and flavor. As a result, KJ containing 25% NJ was suitable for increasing consumer acceptability and functionality of KJ.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of Jeung-pyun containing 0, 2.5, 5, 7.5, and 10% Rudbeckia laciniata L. powder. In this study, increase in the content of Rudbeckia laciniata L. powder led to an increase in pH, hardness, adhesiveness, chewiness, and gumminess while moisture of Jeung-pyun had decreased. Scanning electron microscopy analysis showed that the pores in Jeung-pyun merged leading to a decrease in the number of pores, while the pore size increased along with the increase in R. laciniata L. content. In the sensory evaluation tests, Jeung-pyun with 5% R. laciniata L. powder showed the best results. Moreover, the antioxidant activity of Jeung-pyun increased with the addition of R. laciniata L. powder. Based on these results, we conclude that R. laciniata L. has good quality characteristics and antioxidant activity, making it a good ingredient for Jeung-pyun.

We investigated the effects of organic acid and ultrasonication treatment in maintaining the quality of garlic during storage. Samples were exposed for 5 min to either ultrasonication at 60℃, 1% citric acid, or 0.5% fumaric acid. Presence of microorganisms and minerals, hardness, and color were compared during storage at 4℃ for 28 days. The total aerobic bacterial count remained low. No proliferation of Escherichia coli was observed after treatment with fumaric acid or ultrasonication, and mold proliferation was inhibited by ultrasonication. The mineral content of the northern type garlic was higher than that of the southern type. Exposure to fumaric acid did not result in a substantial difference in hardness until 21 days of storage, at which time there was a decrease in the L-value in each cultivation type. Our results indicate that treatment with 0.5% fumaric acid for 5 min was effective in reducing the abundance of microorganisms during storage without affecting the hardness or color in garlic.
