This study was to investigate the characteristics of the Yakju fermented with differently-processed lotus leaves such as blanching, steaming, roasting, and drying, and fresh one for control. The total acid content was high (0.82~1.22%) in the lotus leaf Yakju, and lactic acid was the main compound among organic acids. Volatile acid content was high (200~500 mg/L) compared to the results of organic acid composition, and the main volatile acid in lotus leaf Yakju was acetic acid. Though the polyphenol content (616.5~693.1 mg/L) was similar among the Yakju, the Hunter's color value of those were quite different and also had a big impact on the sensory evaluation of color. Therefore, it seems that the enzyme activity of polyphenol oxidase in differently-processed lotus leaves may have an influence on the color of lotus leaf Yakju. In a sensory evaluation of color and aroma, lotus leaf Yakju fermentaed with fresh leaves and roasted ones were preferred to the others, and steamed leaves and roasted ones were the best in taste and overall acceptability.

Presently, media for sanitation education consisting of a sanitation manual and a CD-ROM intended for restaurant employers and employees was developed and evaluated. The sanitation manual consisted of five principles: prevention of foodborne illness, personal hygiene, control of food production, instrument and equipment cleaning and sanitation, and management of environmental sanitation. The CD-ROM was composed of animations detailed real-life examples of Salmonella, Staphylococcus aureus, and Norovirus foodborned illness outbreaks; slides summarizing the five principles of the manual; and a poster entitled You can prevent foodborne illness listing and describing the principles. A 15 question evaluation survey was developed to gauge the efficacy of the animations. The survey was divided into five sections on comprehension of the instructions, content organization concerning understanding, content organization concerning the information presented, content organization concerning retention of interest (concentration), and recommendations concerning concentration. Ranked on a 5-point scale the survey produced a mean value of 3.80$\pm$0.39 and individual scores of 3.92$\pm$0.45 (learning instruction), 3.86$\pm$0.48 (understanding), 3.82$\pm$0.52 (information), 3.75$\pm$0.49 (concentration), and 3.67$\pm$0.58 (concentration-recommendation). Overall, evaluation results of the animation were good and easy to understand, with only a few respondents electing to watch the animations more than once. In terms of continuous and recurring education, sanitation training programs should be easy to learn and contain sufficient and specific examples of the importance of sanitation in achieving food safety.

This study examined the quality characteristics of cookies comprised of various amounts of barley-sprout powder by analyzing the physico-chemical characteristics of the cookies and investigating a sensory evaluation. For the study, the cookies were cooked with the following levels of barley-sprout powder: 0%, 3%, 6%, 9%, and 12%. The results show that the moisture content of the cookies was increased in accordance with the level of barley-sprout powder and this result is the same as the spreadability factor of the cookies (p<0.001). Also, the pH and brix values of the samples decreased in accordance with the level of barley-sprout powder (p<0.001). Regarding hunter's colors, the values of L (lightness), a (redness), and b (yellowness) are significantly decreased, increasing the quantity of barley-sprout powder (p<0.001). For the textural characteristics, the results show that the hardness of the cookies decreased in accordance with the addition of the barley-sprout powder; furthermore, the results indicate a tendency whereby the DPPH-radical-scavenging activity and the total polyphenol content of the cookies were increased, thereby increasing the quantity of the barley-sprout powder (p<0.001). For the sensory evaluation, the cookies that were made with 6 % barley-sprout powder received the highest scores in terms of appearance, taste, and overall preference (p<0.05, p<0.001). This study suggests that barley-sprout powder is an excellent ingredient for improving the acceptability and functionality of cookies, and that, in relation to the flour quantity the ideal proportion of barley-sprout powder is 6%.

In this study, we manufactured mung bean Dasik (pattern pressed candy) after selecting the optimum roasting conditions through physiochemical analysis and sensory evaluation. Then anti-oxidative abilities of roasted mung bean were measured in order to develop beauty food (Dasik) using roasted mung bean. In the content of vitexin and isovitexin of roasted mung bean, about 10 times the vitexin in the seed(60.85 mg/g) is found in the skin of raw mung bean, and about 9 times the isovitexin in the seed(71.42 mg/g) is also found in the peel. As a result of analyzing the seed and peel of mung bean after roasting it for 10, 20 and 30 minutes respectively, the optimum roasting condition is thought to be $110^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes as the contents of vitexin and isovitexin showed the highest values of 104.94 mg/g and 122.02 mg/g respectively when the mung bean was roasted at $110^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes. In the anti-oxidative activity evaluation of the optimum mung bean Dasik, the total content of phenol was shown to be 0.15 mg/mL, and the total content of flavonoid was shown to be 0.026 mg/mL. The DPPH radical scavenging ability showed a high vitality of 58.19%, and the ABTS radical scavenging ability was shown to be 13.26%.

The OECD launched the Education 2030 project to develop a learning framework and to conduct the international comparative study on curriculum. As a part of the OECD international curriculum analysis, Korea Institute for Curriculum and Evaluation(KICE) conducted a main study of Curriculum Content Mapping (hereafter, CCM) in the 7 learning areas/subject areas such as national languages, mathematics, humanities/social sciences, natural science, physical education/health, arts, and technologies. The CCM study aimed to identify how the competencies on CCM framework were reflected in the Korea curriculum. For this purpose, KICE identified the competencies on CCM framework, revised the coding framework, and undertook the mapping process. In this study, we gathered the CCM data as an evidence of how competencies on CCM framework were embedded in the 2015 revised mathematics curriculum. For this purpose, experts in mathematics education undertook the mapping process, we summarized the results of CCM main study in mathematics. As the results, numeracy, critical thinking, problem solving, anticipation, action, reflection were perfectly embedded in the 2015 revised mathematics curriculum. the competencies on CCM framework were embedded in the 2015 revised mathematics curriculum, and but literacy, physical/health literacy, trust, learning to learn, reconciling tension and dilemmas, literacy for sustainable development, financial literacy, and entrepreneurship/enterprising were not clearly related to mathematics curriculum. The mapping results should help the Korea Ministry of Education and KICE for preparing the future curriculum revision and development.

Cocoa pod is among the by-products of cocoa (Theobroma cacao) plantations. The aim of this study was to apply a number of treatments in order to improve nutritional quality of cocoa pod for feeding of ruminants. Cocoa pod was subjected to different treatments, i.e. C (cocoa pod without any treatment or control), CAm (cocoa pod+1.5% urea), CMo (cocoa pod+3% molasses), CRu (cocoa pod+3% rumen content) and CPh (cocoa pod+3% molasses+Phanerochaete chrysosporium inoculum). Analysis of proximate and Van Soest's fiber fraction were performed on the respective treatments. The pods were then subjected to an in vitro digestibility evaluation by incubation in rumen fluid-buffer medium, employing a randomized complete block design (n = 3 replicates). Further, an in vivo evaluation of the pods (35% inclusion level in total mixed ration) was conducted by feeding to young Holstein steers (average body weight of $145{\pm}3.6kg$) with a $5{\times}5$ latin square design arrangement (n = 5 replicates). Each experimental period lasted for 30 d; the first 20 d was for feed adaptation, the next 3 d was for sampling of rumen liquid, and the last 7 d was for measurements of digestibility and N balance. Results revealed that lignin content was reduced significantly when cocoa pod was treated with urea, molasses, rumen content or P. chrysosporium (p<0.01) with the following order of effectiveness: CPh>CAm>CRu>CMo. Among all treatments, CAm and CPh treatments significantly improved the in vitro dry matter and organic matter digestibility (p<0.05) of cocoa pod. Average daily gain of steers receiving CAm or CPh treatment was significantly higher than that of control (p<0.01) with an increase of 105% and 92%, respectively. Such higher daily gain was concomitant with higher N retention and proportion of N retention to N intake in CAm and CPh treatments than those of control (p<0.05). It can be concluded from this study that treatment with either urea or P. chrysosporium is effective in improving the nutritive value of cocoa pod.

This study was performed to obtain basic data regarding the development of fish steak products using olive flounder and pork leg. Olive flounder and pork leg were ground separately in a chopper. The methods used for processing were as follows. Chopped olive flounder (100 g) and other ingredients (bread crumbs, 13 g; onion, 12 g; garlic, 4 g; egg wash, 18 g; salt, 0.05 g; pepper, 0.05 g) were mixed in a chopper. The mixture was molded into a steak shape ($12{\times}7cm$) and roasted in an oven at $180^{\circ}C$ for 12 min (OF). FP consisting of a mixture of olive flounder (70 g) and pork leg meat (30 g) and OP consisting of pork leg meat alone (100 g) were processed according to the same procedure as described for OF. Various factors (viable bacterial count, chemical composition, pH, salinity, hardness value, color value, total amino acid content, free amino acid content, fatty acid composition, mineral content) were measured, and sensory evaluation was conducted. Based on the results of the sensory evaluation and hardness value, OP was deemed to be the most desirable, followed in order by FP and OF. There was a slight but significant difference between OP and FP.

This study was attempted to enhance nutritional value of cooked rice by adding milk in cooking water. Cooked and soaked rice with five different levels of milk in cooking water (0%, A: 30%, B: 50%, C: 70%, D: 100%, E) was tested for rheological parameters, fine structural changes, sensory evaluation. 1. Water absorbance of raw rice in cooking water with varying amountes of milk, was tested at $5^{\circ}C$ and $15^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours. Water absorption ratio was decreased as milk content was increased and soaking temperature was low. Time for maximum water absorption of sample A was 40 min at 1$15^{\circ}C$ but for sample B to D, it was not reached until 120 min. 2. Electronmicroscopic observation revealed that starch granules of rice lost their regular forms by soaking for 90 minutes, but recovered most of initial regularity after 24 hours. Increase in milk content of soaking water decreased marginal sharpness of the starch granule, presumably due to reduced swelling of the granule. 3. Degree of gelatinization of cooked rice was highest in sample A and progressively decreased as milk content was increased. It was, however, increased in all samples when the cooking water to rice ratio was raised from 160% to 180%. During 4 hour storage, rates of retrogradation were not different between A and B samples, but those of C, D and E were about 2.5 times higher than A and B under the optimal condition of 170% cooking water to rice ratio. This was in the order reverse to hardness order of AC>A, D＞E at cooking water to rice ratios of 160% and 170%, above which A sample surpassed the rest of samples. 4. Sensory evaluation conducted by fifteen university students as panelists showed that there were more significant differences among five samples in flavour, texture than appearance and a notable preference for b and C over A, D and E.

A possibility of evaluation of the major internal quality factors-Brix, moisture contents, firmness and acid content in the Korean domestic 'Fuji'apple fruits by near-infrared reflectance spectroscopic (NIRS) methods were investigated. A multiple linear regression(MLR) analysis between the data obtained by physico- chemical analysis method using refractometer, freeze drier, texture analyzer and titrater and NIR spectral data was carried out to make a calibration. The standard error of prediction(SEP) of Brix, moisture, firmness and acid content were $0.50^{\circ}Brix,\;0.64%,\;0.14kg/cm^2$ and 0.07%. It is concluded that NIRS methods can be used to evaluate Brix and moisture contents of in a apple non-destructive and rapid way but the accuracy for determination of firmness and acid content was slightly low.
