This study was carried out to investigate the effects of different types of $\beta$-cyclodextrin ($\beta$-CD) treatments on chemical and sensory characteristics of cholesterol-reduced cream cheese. The cholesterol removal rates were 92.0% in cream cheese treated by powder $\beta$-CD, and 82.6% in cream cheese treated by crosslinked $\beta$-CD. Amounts of short-chain fatty acid and free amino acids were significantly lower in cream cheese made by crosslinked $\beta$-CD-treated milk, especially after 2 weeks storage, compared with those of no $\beta$-CD-treated control and cream cheese made by powder $\beta$-CD treated milk. Among rheological properties, cohesiveness was significantly higher, and gumminess in cream cheese made by crosslinked $\beta$-CD-treated milk was slightly lower than others. In sensory analysis, no difference was found in texture among treatments, while bitterness was lower in the early stage of storage, and overall quality was higher score, in cream cheese made by crosslinked $\beta$-CD-treated cream at 3 and 4 week storage, compared with those in control and powder $\beta$-CD-treated group. The present study indicated that crosslinked $\beta$-CD treatment resulted in an efficient cholesterol removal rate over 80% and a deceleration of ripening, which may provide a longer shelf life without significant adverse effects in chemical and sensory properties.

The quality of Yukwa added with safflower seed powder (SSP) was investigated using chemical, sensory and mechanical properties, The result of chemical properties showed that degree of expansion of Yukwa were decreased as the amount of SSP increased, while fat absorption increased. Yukwa with 1% SSP was the best in appearance, taste and overall preference of acceptability. Lightness decreased by the addition of SSP, while redness and yellowness increased. Texture measurement showed that hardness was the lowest in the Yukwa with 5% SSP, and cohesiveness was the highest in the Yukwa with 1% SSP. Hardness and brittleness of mechanical properties were positively correlated with the acceptability. The degree of expansion was positively correlated with cohesiveness and springiness. Fat absorption and moisture content were positively correlated with gumminess in the mechanical properties. Yukwa with 1% SSP showed a good overall preference.

The principal objective of this study was to evaluate the sensory properties and physical characteristics of muffins produced using different fats(butter, grape seed oil) and mixing methods(Creaming method, Foam method, Single-stage method). The muffins weighed between $63.25{\sim}64.50$ g and were $5.77{\sim}6.42$ cm in height. In a texture analyzer test, muffins prepared via the single-stage method with butter evidenced the highest hardness, gumminess, and chewiness values among the five kinds of muffin prepared in these experiments. The springiness value was highest in the muffin prepared via the foam method with grape seed oil. In the sensory evaluation, we detected no significant differences among the muffins in terms of flavor($4.76{\sim}5.24$), taste($4.65{\sim}5.29$), softness ($4.65{\sim}5.41$), and overall acceptability ($4.47{\sim}5.29$). In the chemical composition analysis, moisture and crude protein contents were found to be higher in the control group(p<0.05) than in the muffin prepared via the foam method with grape seed oil(p<0.01). We noted no significant differences among the muffins in terms of crude lipids or crude ash content.

When making a yellow layer cake, an existing chemical leavening agent, sourdough starter powder, was used instead of using baking powder in order to produce batter where the acid agent in the baking powder was reduced using baking soda. The control group had the lowest share of the batter and therefore had the highest specific volume. In a test group, the share of SP4 was low and therefore, the specific volume was high. In terms of physiochemical characteristics, the volume, symmetry and uniform index was high in SP4 in the test group. The control group had the highest moisture content followed by SP4. In terms of texture, the control group had the lowest hardness and highest springiness. In the test group, SP4 had the lowest hardness and highest springiness. The result of the sensory evaluation indicates that SP4 had the best taste and flavor. In terms of overall preference, SP4 showed significantly higher preference overall. However, it did not show any significant difference compared to the control group.

An optional ingredient Perilla Seed paste was adopted to improve the quality of Yulmoo Mul-kimchi during fermentation. The final weight percentage of perilla seed paste in Yulmoo Mul-kimchi was adjusted to 0, 10, 20, 30, and 40% per water respectively. Chemical and sensory characteristics were determined during fermentation at 10$\^{C}$ for 25 days. The effect was varied depending on the amounts of perilla seed paste, but Yulmoo Mul-kimchi fermented with 20% perilla seed paste was most favored for color, smell, sour taste, carbonated taste, texture and overall acceptability in the sensory evaluation. The pH decreased with the increase of total acidity. The total vitamin C content increased initially to the certain level at a certain time of fermentation depending on the level of perilla seed paste, and then decreased later. In case of reducing sugar, the 20% treatment showed the highest content. Turbidity values were generally increased in all samples during fermentation, even though the extents were limited. Total plate count and the number of lactic acid bacteria were gradually increased and then decreased showing the maximum microbial counts during fermentation. The optimum levels of perilla seed paste in Yulmoo Mul-kimchi obtained through experiments were between 20 and 30% of added water content, preferably 20% for color, fermentation-retarding effect, and sensory taste of the product.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of adding purple-fleshed sweet potato (PFP) powder on the texture properties and sensory characteristics of cooked pork sausage. Sodium nitrite alone and sodium nitrite in combination with PFP were added to five different treatments sausages (CON (control) = 0.01% sodium nitrite, SP25 = 0.005% sodium nitrite and 0.25% purple-fleshed sweet potato powder combination, SP50 = 0.005% sodium nitrite and 0.5% purple-fleshed sweet potato powder combination, PP25 = 0.25% purple-fleshed sweet potato powder, PP50 = 0.5% purple-fleshed sweet potato powder). The sausages were cooked to $74^{\circ}C$, stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for 6 wks, and used for chemical analysis, textural properties, and a sensory evaluation on 0, 2, 4 and 6 wks of storage, respectively. Similar CIE $a^*$ and $b^*$ values were determined in sausages from CON, SP25 and SP50 at the end of storage, and they were higher in CIE $a^*$ but lower in CIE $b^*$ than that of the PP25 and PP50 sausages. Significant differences were observed for brittleness and hardness when PFP was added to the sausages but were not confirmed after 4 wks of storage. The objective color score was influenced by adding PFP; however, the effect was not dose dependent. In overall acceptability, panelists favored the CON, SP25, SP50, and PP50 sausages but did not prefer PP25 sausages at the end of storage. Therefore, adding PFP to cooked pork sausages improved color and texture properties and sensory characteristics, but further study is needed to determine the proper ratio of sodium nitrite and PFP.

This study was conducted to investigate chemical and sensory characteristics of boiled soup extracted from crossbred ogol chicken as affected by the level of Flavourzyme produced from Aspergillus oryzae and composed with endo-proteinase(674U/g) and exoproteinase(8,053U/g). It was hydrolyzed by different concentrations of the protease enzyme (Flavourzyme)(0%(Control), 0.01％(T$_2$), 0.1%(T$_3$) and 0.5%(T$_4$)) at 45$^{\circ}C$ for 4hrs. Manufacture of the extract was performed by boiling treated meats with medicinal herbs(Sipchun daebo) at a higher pressure condition. Minerals, free amino acid content, sensory properties of the extract were as follows. The sodium contents were increased as the treatment levels of enzyme increased. The iron contents were lowest when the enzyme treated by 0.5% level, however there were not significantly different among the treatments. The copper and mangan contents had no significantly different among the enzyme treatment levels. Higher contents of fee amino acid were observed as the amount of the protease increased with the treatment of higher than 0.1％ enzyme, no significant effect was observed. In sensory properties, the extract manufactured by addition of 0.01∼0.1% of Flavourzyme resulted in a similar or better appearance, flavor, taste and overall palatabilitycompared to control(no enzyme treatment). However, the extract manufactured with 0.5% of Flavourzyme resulted in lower scores in appearance, flavor, taste and overall palatability than the control. In addition, this product showed more off-flavor than control.

Five types of kiwi jelly were prepared with different rates of pressed kiwi juice and carrageenan, and their quality characteristics such as chemical composition, saccharinity, color, texture, and sensory attributes were measured. There were no significant changes in moisture, crude lipid, carbohydrate, but significant differences were shown in crude ash, crude protein, pH, and acidity. The pH decreased and acidity increased as the amount of added kiwi juice increased. The saccharinity of kiwi jelly increased with increased amount of added kiwi juice. Additionally, the total phenolic content, DPPH radical scavenging activity and content increased with increased amount of added kiwi juice. The hardness, gumminess, and chewiness increased with increased levels of carrageenan. As the amount of added carrageenan increased, the L values of kiwi jelly decreased. Based on the sensory evaluation test, kiwi jelly, JKJ(Jeju Kiwi Jelly)-3 was the best in the flavor, sweetness, texture, and overall acceptability. The chemical composition of JKJ-3 was as follows : moisture $75.1{\pm}0.5%$, carbohydrate $24.2{\pm}0.5%$, crude protein $0.29{\pm}0.05%$, and crude ash $0.44{\pm}0.02%$. The kiwi jelly, JKJ-3 of overall acceptability values in the sensory test for flavor, sweetness, hardness, texture and overall favorite were 3.65, 3.35, 3.35, 3.50 and 3.60, respectively, with the addition of 20% pressed kiwi juice and 2.3% carrageenan.

In this study, the quality characteristics of cookies with added purple kohlrabi (Brassica oleracea var. gongylodes) powder were investigated and analyzed through chemical and sensory evaluation. Samples were prepared with different levels (0, 1, 3, and 5%) of freeze-dried kohlrabi powder. The addition of Kolarbi powder decreased the moisture and fat contents, but the ash content was significantly increased (p<0.05). The pH and density of the cookie dough decreased significantly with the increasing levels of kohlrabi powder added (p<0.05). The spread ratio of the cookies generally decreased as more kohlrabi powder was added, but the decrease was not statistically significant. The hardness of the cookies increased significantly, however, with the increasing levels of kohlrabi powder added (p<0.05). The Hunter's color L, a, and b values significantly decreased with increasing kohlrabi powder compared to those of the control (p<0.05). In the sensory evaluation, the cookies to which 3 and 5% kohlrabi powder were added showed remarkably higher values for color, taste and appearance. These results suggest that purple kohlrabi powder is a good ingredient for improving the sensory and quality characteristics of cookies.

A study was conducted to investigate the fattening performance, physico-chemical properties of breast meat, vaccine titers in cross bred meat type hybrid chicks fed organic sulfur. Total three hundred and sixty chicks of eight weeks old were replaced in individual cage from 8 to 10 weeks old. Four levels of organic sulfur (0, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0%) containing 45% sulfur were added into basal diet containing CP 19% and ME 2,950 kcal/kg. Weight gain, feed intake, fred conversion were weekly measured. The proximate composition, physico-chemical properties of breast meat, vaccine titer and sensory characteristics were examined at the end of experiment. Weight gain, feed intake and feed conversion of birds fed organic sulfur were not statistically different with control. There were no significant difference in feed intake and feed conversion. However, abdominal fat(%) of birds fed organic sulfur tended to increase compared with control. Crude fat of breast meat decreased significantly in organic sulfur treatments(P<0.05). The red color of breast meat seemed to increase but was not statistically different among the treatments. Cooking loss showed decrements significantly in organic sulfur treatments(P<0.05). Mechanical Hardness, cohesiveness and springiness were prone to be high and gumminess greatly high in breast meat of birds fed organic sulfur addition compared with control. Juiciness tended to increase and greasiness decreased(P<0.05) in organic sulfur treatments by the sensory evaluation. The overall acceptability of the breast meat was the highest at 2.0% organic sulfur added chicks(P<0.01). There were no different blood cholesterol, AST, ALT and BUN.
