Appenzeller cheese samples were prepared by addition of 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0% green tea (Camellia sinensis, CS) powder and control cheese. We examined various quality characteristics of the novel cheese, such as viable-cell counts, pH, water-soluble nitrogen (WSN), non-casein nitrogen (NCN), non-protein nitrogen (NPN), and catechin level during maturation for 16 weeks at $14^{\circ}C$. To develop a Korean natural cheese containing green tea powder, we also analyzed the changes in the polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis pattern, chemical composition, and sensory qualities. The viable cell counts of the samples were not significantly different. Until the $3^{rd}$ week, the pH of the CS cheese decreased with an increase in the maturation time. However, the pH gradually increased by the $12^{th}$ week, while WSN, NCN, NPN also increased. The WSN, NCN, NPN, and catechin values for the CS cheese samples were significantly higher than the values for the control cheese. The polyacrylamide gel electrophoretic pattern of caseins for the CS cheese indicated that this cheese degraded more rapidly than the control cheese did. In the sensory evaluation, cheese with 1.0% CS powder showed the highest scores in taste and appearance and good scores in flavor and texture. These results indicate that 1.0% CS is the optimal value for addition to cheese, and cheese containing 1.0% CS shows good physiological properties and reasonably high overall sensory acceptability.

CLA was chemically synthesized by alkaline isomerization method using corn oil. CLA-TG was synthesized by chemical reaction using sodium methoxide. For the control, 10% of back fat among the total component was only added without the annex of CLA-TG. For the first treatment, 5% of CLA-TG among the lard component added into the press ham was replaced. For the 2nd, 3rd and 4rd treatments, 10%, 15% and 20% of CLA-TG was respectively replaced. Manufacture press ham using CLA-TG were vacuum packaged and then stored during 1, 7, 14, 21 and 28 days at 4℃. Samples were analyzed for shear force value, sensory evaluation, TBARS, fatty acid composition and CLA content. Shear force value of control was significantly higher than that of CLA-TG treatment groups(P<0.05). All treatments were increased by the passage of storage time. No remarkable differences were found in sensory properties among control and CLA-TG treatment groups. CLA-TG treatment groups showed significantly(P<0.05) lower TBARS value than the control. TBARS value was increased significantly during storage in all treatment. In the change of fatty acid composition, the contents of C14:0～C20:4 were decreased significantly by CLA-TG additive. Whereas the increase level of CLA-TG additive resulted in the significantly higher unsaturated fatty acid and CLA content. Summing up the a forementioned results, press ham manufacturing with CLA-TG additive was not affected in sensory evaluation. Also, it may be assumed that the high quality press ham can be manufactured with the extent of storage period and CLA accumulation.

This study was conducted to develop a spray-dried garlic chives (Allium tuberosum) powder and to evaluate its quality characteristics depending on the treatment of steam blanching pretreatment $100^{\circ}C$, 3 min) and the addition of forming agents (dextrin (DE=10), ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin) during process. The steam blanching pretreatment showed an increase in $L^*$ value while a decrease in $-a^*$, $b^*$, $C^*$, and $h^o$ values of the powder. Moisture content and water soluble index were not affected by the treatment of steam blanching and the addition of forming agents, whereas the particle diameter was the smallest in the steam blanching treatment and dextrin addition. Chlorophyll, phenolic compound, and vitamin C content, and DPPH radical scavenging activity of non-pretreated powder were significantly higher than those of the steam blanching treated powders. However, there was no significant difference between the two forming agents. The sensory acceptability (color, smell, and overall acceptability) of powder treated with steam blanching were significantly higher than those of non-pretreated powders. Therefore, the steam blanching pretreatment of fresh garlic chives affected on the better quality characteristics of the spray-dried powders when compared with non-pretreated powder though it adversely affected the natural chemical quality of fresh garlic chives.

Yogurt was prepared with different substitution ratio [10, 20, 30, and 50% (w/w)] of skim milk with enzymatically saccharified Korean rice wine lees powder (eKRWLP) and fermented with commercially available mixed lactic acid bacteria (Bifidobacterium longum, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Streptococcus thermophilus) at $40^{\circ}C$ for 18 h. Fermentation characteristics were evaluated in terms of acid production (pH and titratable acidity) and viable cell counts of lactic acid bacteria. The pH of yogurts decreased with increasing eKRWLP substitution ratio of skim milk. After 12 h fermentation, titratable acidities of eKRWLP substitution and control (yogurt made without eKRWLP) were 0.84~1.04% and 0.93%, respectively. The titratable acidities of yogurts prepared with 10 and 20% substitution ratio increased than that of the control yogurt, but titratable acidities of yogurts of 30 and 50% substitution ratio decreased. After 9 h fermentation, the number of viable lactic acid bacterial cell were increased to 8.18~8.24 log CFU/g in all yogurts. In sensory evaluation, there were similar preference for eKRWLP yogurts prepared with 10 and 20% substitution ratio and the control. When eKRWLP substitution and control yogurts fermented for 9 h were incubated at $4^{\circ}C$, their pHs and titratable acidities were slightly changed but the number of viable lactic acid bacteria were well maintained above $10^7CFU/g$ for 11 days in yogurts prepared with 10 and 20% substitution ratio among eKRWLP substitution yogurts. These results suggest that eKRWLP can be used as substituent of skim milk and the optimum substitution ratio is around 10~20%.

This study was carried out to estimate the effects of preservatives (alcohol, adipic acid) and heat treatment $(40^{\circ}C,\;60^{\circ}C)$ for the prolongation of shelf-life on low-salt Kimchi. Low-salt Kimchi was prepared with salt replacements (NaCl 50%, KCl 36%, $MgSO_4$ 10%, $CaSO_4$ 3%, glutamic acid 0.2%). Chemical characteristics and microbiological parameters were monitored during fermentation at $20^{\circ}C$. When three kinds of preservative which were alcohol 2.0%, adipic acid 0.1% and their mixture were added to low-salt Kimchi, shelf-life of them were prolonged. To extend the shelf-life of low-salt Kimchi, when the heat treatment at $40^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$ were tried, heat treatment at $60^{\circ}C$ was superior than at $40^{\circ}C$. In sensory evaluation of low-salt Kimchi, the control was showed the best quality in the overall acceptability. And low-salt Kimchi treated at $40^{\circ}C$ showed the most similar characteristics to the control Kimchi.

The study was conducted to investigate some grain quality characters related with brewing fittness for rice wine by adopting eight rice varieties as materials. Six japonica rice varieties except two Tongil-type rice had short and round grain of 1.80 or lower grain length/width ratio. 1000-grain weight of brown rice was 21.7~29.5g of significant difference among varieties. The white-center of rice grain was most severe in Hidahomare and Iri 402. Among tested varieties, Seomjinbyeo, Iri 402, Dongjinbyeo and Hidahomare had 50% or higher head rice ratio, while the others had relatively worse milling properties resulted from higher ratio of notched-belly and broken grain. Chemical components and total acid and amino acid content of refined rice wine was relatively good in every variety. Liquifying and saccharificating power was higher and koji conditon was also good in the varieties of high head rice ratio. Seomjinbyeo, Dongjinbyeo and Iri 402 was preferred in sensory test of refined wine and was recognized as superior adaptable rice varieties for brewing rice wine.

Eleven salt replacements$(SR-1{\sim}SR-11)$ composed of NaCl, KCl, $MgSO_4,\;CaSO_4$, lysine or glutamic acid were prepared and used for the preparation of low salt Kimchi instead of NaCl alone. Some chemical and microbiological characteristics of the low-salt Kimchi with 2.5% salt replacement were determined during the fermentation at $20^{\circ}C$. The pH decrease and acidity increase of low-salt Kimchi were slower than those of control Kimchi with NaCl alone. The total number of microorganism in SR-8 Kimchi added L-lysine was lower than that of control Kimchi until 5 days of fermentation. However, there was no difference in the numer of lactic bacteria between low-salt Kimchi and control Kimchi. The growth of yeasts was found to be slow in low-salt Kimchi with SR-8. The low-salt Kimchi with SR-3 showed the hardest texture among the prepared Kimchi. The overall acceptabilities of low-salt Kimchi prepared with SR-1, SR-3 composed of NaCl, KCl, $MgSO_4,\;CaSO_4$, and SR-10 added 0.2% glutamic acid to the elements were similar to the control Kimchi.

This study aimed to find an effective preservation method of lotus leaves for the preparation of lotus-leaf Yakju throughout the year. The characteristics of Yakju containing lotus leaves pretreated by blanching, steaming, roasting, and drying were investigated in this study. The chemical properties of Yakju (pH, amino acidity, alcohol content, and volatile acid content) were significantly different for all treatments, except for the total acid content. The polyphenol content ranging from 315.89 to 462.63 ppm (p<0.05) was significantly different depending on pretreatment method L color value for Yakju was not significantly different all treatments, while a value was significantly different in Yakju containing frozen stored leaves after pretreatment. The b value was lowest for the blanching treatment, and was significantly different for all treatments. Among the organic acids present in Yakju, the oxalic, citric, and malic acid contents were significantly different for all treatments. In sensory evaluation, lotus-leaf Yakjus containing fresh leaves and dried leaves were preferred to the others in color and flavor among Yakjus prepared with lotus leaves before cold storage. However, among the Yakjus prepared with lotus leaves after cold storage, that containing blanched leaves was preferred to the others in terms of flavor, taste, and overall acceptability.
