Two types of kimchi with a different total acidity (TA, 0.75% or 1.19%) were heated at $100^{\circ}C$ for up to 60 min to develop a gratin added with heated-kimchi. Their browning index and color intensity increased with increasing heating time, which was more apparent for the kimchi with the higher TA. This was attributed to the Maillard reaction facilitated at a higher heat intensity and by the smaller fermentation products. The same tendency was also observed for the antioxidant activities determined by the total reducing capacity, metal-chelating activity, and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity. In particular, heating kimchi at $100^{\circ}C$ only for 10 min increased the activities significantly. Therefore, the heated-kimchi was added to gratin at 20%. With the addition, the dietary fiber, ${\gamma}-aminobutyric$ acid (GABA) and ornithine contents in the gratin were increased appreciably (P<0.01). Nevertheless, there was little change in its salinity. The antioxidant activities of the gratin were significantly (P<0.001) higher than the control gratin without kimchi, with DPPH radical scavenging activity being 3.6 times higher. The results suggest that the functionality of kimchi could be effectually added to gratin even after heat treatment.

In this study, we analyzed the explanations and examples of Brønsted-Lowry model in Chemistry I and Chemistry II textbooks of the 2009 revised curriculum. In particular, the definition of the Brønsted-Lowry model, the examples, and the content of experiments were analyzed by the process perspective of chemical equilibrium, emergent process. The analyzed textbooks were 4 kinds of Chemistry I textbooks and 4 kinds of Chemistry II textbooks in 2009 revision curriculum. As a result, Chemical I textbooks did not adequately show the chemical equilibrium viewpoint when explaining the Brønsted-Lowry model. In the Chemistry II textbooks, the examples of Brønsted-Lowry model were not present emergent process viewpoint, and those were described as sequential viewpoint of Arrhenius model. In addition, examples of experiments to demonstrate the Brønsted-Lowry model of Chemistry II textbooks were insufficient. The experimental examples related to the definition of acid bases were at the level of classification by the color change of indicators. The experimental examples for explaining the strength of acid and base were to compare current intensity or amount of hydrogen gas generated from the reaction with metal. In addition, all textbooks presented the state of aqueous solution when describing the Brønsted-Lowry model, causing problems with differentiation from the Arrhenius model. Therefore, it is necessary to develop examples of experiments to help students understand Brønsted-Lowry model by presenting acid and base reaction in the non-aqueous solution state.

The sensory properties and flavor components of the white bread added with arrowroot juice. The lightness of bread crumb decreased significantly as arrowroot juice was added. While the yellowness increased slightly, redness increased remarkably. The hardness, chewiness and adhesiveness of the white bread added with arrowroot juice increased more than those of the control bread, but they had no statistical significance. While the gumminess increased significantly and springiness decreased significantly, the cohesiveness did not indicate significant differences among the comparison groups. In sensory evaluation, the texture, flavor and sweetness did not indicate significant difference among the comparison groups, while the color and overall acceptability indicated significant difference. The optimum concentration of arrowroot juice in the white bread was 25% based on the sensory evaluation scores. The main flavors components of the white bread added with 25% arrowroot juice were compounds translated by arrowroot juice and the compounds formed by amino-carbonyl reaction. The translated flavors were methoxy phenol, ${\beta}-damascenone$, benzylcyanide, and menthofuran. The compounds formed by amino-carbonyl reaction were alkyl pyrazines, pyrroles and furans.

The main objective of this study was to manufacture black onions using different methods, and to analyze the color and physiological and antioxidant activities of their water extracts. Black onions were produced via high-temperature aging (70, 80, and $90^{\circ}C$). At $90^{\circ}C$, onions with different weights (large, 90-L; medium, 90-M; and small, 90-S) and small onions with different appearances (whole, 90-S-W; cut, 90-S-C; and peeled, 90-S-P) were also produced. The colorimetry measurements showed that the extract from the 90-S-C black onion had the highest ${\Delta}E$ value among all the extracts from all the black onion groups. The extract from the 90-S-C black onion had a 3.3 times higher total phenol content than that from the $70^{\circ}C$ black onion extract (11.62 and 3.51 mg/g, respectively). The DPPH radical scavenging activities of the extracts from 90-S-W, 90-S-C, and 90-S-P were higher than those of the other black onion extracts, and the 90-S-C black onion extract had the highest level of 48.3% (at the concentration of 10 mg/ml). The 90-S-C black onion extract also had the highest level of antioxidant activities (ABTS radical scavenging activity, 0.84 mg AA eq/100 g, and nitrite scavenging ability, 49.8%). These results clearly demonstrated that 90-S-C was the best among the conditions used and that the water extract of the 90-S-C black onions had a significantly higher level of antioxidant activities than the extracts from the other black onions.

Benzoic acid, methyl paraben, and butyl paraben are preservatives that have been used in pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food products. However, as their toxicities for human have been reported, many nations and organizations including Korea have established a regulation limit for thier usage of these preservatives in food products. The present study developed the isotope dilution liquid chromatography mass spectrometry method for accurate determination of three target preseratives in soysauce. In this study, the isotope dilution liquid chromatography mass spectrometry method was developed for accurate determination of three target preservatives in soy sauce. LC separation was optimized considering the pKa of benzoic acid which is lower than those of methyl and butyl parabens. A C18 column was used with 5 mM ammonium acetate and methanol as mobile phases. Mass spectrometry was operated in negative mode and selected reaction monitoring mode (SRM). Soy sauce sample was cleaned-up with C18 SPE cartridge for removing matrix inferences and color material. Optimized conditions and the method were validated with soy sauce reference materials for the analysis of food preservatives from Health Science Authority in Singapore. The measured values of benzoic acid, methyl and butyl paraben agreed well with reference values within their uncertainties.

To test bee pollen as an ingredient for heat-processed foods, bee pollen was puffed under heat at various pressures and examined for its physicochemical properties and antioxidant activities. As the puffing intensity increased, the browning index, total reducing capacity, and DPPH radical scavenging activity of the bee pollen increased significantly (p<0.001). This was attributed to the formation of Maillard reaction products during the puffing process. The wheat flour-puff yeot-gangjeong added with puffed bee pollen showed significantly (p<0.01) higher antioxidant activities than its counterpart with raw bee pollen. In addition, the gangjeong retained the physicochemical characteristics of the puffed bee pollen such as color, soluble solids, titratable acidity, and pH. The results showed that the puffed bee pollen could potentially be used as an ingredient in thermally processed foods and retain its superior antioxidant properties.

Volatile and non-volatile metabolite profiles of sugar-immersed raspberry liquid during different storage periods were analyzed and comparative analysis with their general characteristics, antioxidant activity, and sensory quality was evaluated to better understand the effect of the storage period on the quality of ugar-immersed raspberry liquid. During storage, a browning reaction occurred, resulting in a change in color and the production of volatile compounds. At the beginning of storage, sucrose was completely decomposed into fructose and glucose, and the sweetness was rapidly reduced, but the increase in succinic acid increased the sour taste. Most volatile compounds increased with an increase of the storage period, and especially, the contents of citronellol, octanoic acid, and hexanoic acid, which are known as antioxidants, showed the highest content in 10 day-sample, showing the highest antioxidant activity at this time. Although a further study on bacterial profiles and browning reaction during the storage will be needed, the results of this study showed that the quality of sugar-soaked raspberry extract was significantly affected by the storage period and can be used as basic data for commercialization of ugar-immersed raspberry liquid.

In recent years, there has been an increasing amount of waste glass that cannot be recycled and is landfilled among construction and household waste. To address this issue, research has been conducted to recycle waste glass as sand, but conflicting results have emerged depending on the type of waste glass and the manufacturing method of recycled glass sand(RGS). To promote the use of RGS, it is necessary to review its performance under field conditions, such as mass production processes and real scale concrete applications. This study introduces examples of mass production system process for RGS and evaluates the effects of the usage conditions(color, content, particle size) of mass-produced RGS on the mechanical properties and alkali-silica reaction(ASR) of mortar. As a result, the mass production system process of RGS causes microcracks inside the particles, which are the cause of mortar strength reduction and ASR expansion. The number of microcracks is highest in clear RGS. Based on these results, it is proposed that RGS can be used as a replacement for natural sand with a content of less than 25 % or a particle size of less than 0.5 mm.
