This study investigated quality characteristics and sensory properties of gluten-free bread using teff flour and various gums. The five samples used in this study were control (wheat flour), T (teff flour), TG (teff flour, guar gum), TX (teff flour, xanthan gum), and TGX (teff flour, guar gum, xanthan gum). Baking loss, moisture content, pH, salinity, brix, dough expansion, color value, texture property, and sensory property were measured for each sample. As a result, pH was the highest in TX at 6.11 and the lowest in the control at 5.77. Salinity was the highest in the control at 0.80% and lowest in TG at 0.04%. Brix was the lowest in TX at $1.10^{\circ}Bx$. While moisture content was the highest in the control at 43.58%, gluten-free breads using teff flour had no significant difference (p<0.05). Baking loss rate of bread was no significant difference among samples (p<0.05). Dough expansion rate by fermentation was the highest in the control at 108.89% and the lowest in T at 17.84%. L-value of crust had no significant difference (p<0.05). For L-value of crumb, the control was the highest at 64.34 and T was the lowest at 33.84. In texture properties analysis, hardness was the highest in TGX at 16.00 N and the lowest in the control at 2.87 N. There was no significant difference in springiness (p<0.05). Chewiness was the highest in TX and TGX. The result of sensory properties was that while there were no significant differences in color, salty taste, flavor, and overall acceptability, there was a significant difference in softness and sweetness (p<0.05). These results showed that use of teff flour and gums rather than using only teff flour for bread manufacturing can improve quality characteristics in dough expansion and texture properties. It is considered that xanthan gum or guar gum are appropriate on bread using teff for quality characteristics.

This study was carried out to investigate the quality characteristics and antioxidative activity of bread containing lotus leaf powder (in ratios of 0, 1, 2, and 3% of the total flour). The pH of dough and bread were decreased as the concentration of lotus leaf powder increased. The volume of dough during fermentation did not show significant difference between 1% lotus leaf powder containing dough and control. The weight of bread increased by addition of lotus leaf powder. The volume, specific volume and baking loss rate of the bread decreased as lotus leaf powder levels increased. Redness and yellowness of the inner crumb were decreased by the addition of lotus leaf powder, but lightness was increased. 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl-radical scavenging activity and total polyphenol contents were increased significantly as the concentration of lotus leaf powder increased. The overall acceptability of bread containing 1% lotus leaf powder showed no significant difference compared with control. The result exhibited that adding the lotus leaf powder into the bread increased antioxidant activity, and the highest quality improvement was obtained by incorporating 1% (w/w) lotus leaf powder into the bread formula.

Effects of Prunus mume byproduct (PLB), obtained after manufacture of Prunus mume liquer, on quality characteristics of bread were investigated. The pH of dough and bread decreased but titratable acidity increased by addition of 10% or 20% PLB. The volume of dough during fermentation and the baking loss of bread containing PLB were smaller than those of the dough and bread without PLB. The weight of bread increased but the volume decreased by addition of PLB. L (lightness) value increased and a (redness) value decreased in the surface of bread containing PLB. b (yellowness) value did not show difference between treatments. The internal color of bread containing PLB decreased in L and a value but increased in b value. The hardness and strength of bread decreased with 10% PLB but increased with 20% PLB compared to control. Cohesiveness and springiness of bread increased with 10% or 20% PLB, but did not show significant difference between concentrations. As results of sensory evaluation, taste and flavor of the bread containing 10% PLB increased significantly compared to control. The sensory quality of bread with 20% PLB decreased significantly. The strength, springiness, and hardness of bread with 20% PLB were higher than those of control. The taste, flavor, color, and overall acceptability of bread with 10% PLB were better than those of control. No molds were found in breads with 20% PLB and 20% PLB powder during storage for 1 week at room temperature.

In this study, domestic wheat flour was used to develop a native sourdough suitable for the Korean environment, in an attempt to replace the sourdough starter that are currently available in local markets and used to prepare sourdough breads. Nine kinds of domestic wheat flour (available at local market) were examined and to characterized according to their general ingredients, gluten contents, colorimetry data and mixograph measurement. In addition, the flour were used to make sourdough starters that were assessed for pH, TTA, and fermentation rate from which an optimal sourdough starter could be chosen. This study also compared the product characteristics breads prepared from the with one another by adding extracted sourdough starters. In order to analyze the quality characteristics of the breads, a comparative analysis was conducted through on data for dough fermentation rate, specific volume, texture analyses, colorimetry, water activity and sensory tests. According to the results, the sourdough starters KWF 3, KWF 4 and KWF 5 scored well in evaluations for gluten content, wheat flour characteristics and pH, and were deemed the most optimal starters. To characterize the sourdough breads prepared from KWF 3, KWF 4, and KWF 5, their quality characteristics were analyzed and then compared to those sourdough bread (control group) prepared using a sourdough starter made from imported wheat flour. According to the comparative analysis of the quality characteristics, KWF 4 had the largest volume and specific volume, but had the lowest textural hardness, indicating the softest texture of overall. According to sensory tests, the bread prepared from KWF 4 was significantly more preferred than the other specimens.

Purpose: Pomegranate has been reported to exhibit medical properties such as antimicrobial, antimutagenic, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory effects. Especially the pomegranate peel as a by-product of the juice industry possesses more polyphenols with an antioxidant effect than the pomegranate flesh does. This study aimed to investigate the effect of the pomegranate peel on the quality characteristics of steamed bread. Methods: Steamed bread containing pomegranate peel was prepared with 0%, 1%, 3%, 5%, and 7% replacements of wheat flour with pomegranate peel powder, respectively. Results: The pH of dough significantly decreased from 5.66 to 4.42 with the amounts of pomegranate peel powder rising. After a 1st fermentation, the pH of all groups decreased. With an increase of the pomegranate peel powder level, the fermentation tension decreased from 42.83 mL to 29.03 mL. In addition, the volume, the specific volume, and moisture decreased as the pomegranate peel powder content level heightened. For color, steamed bread added with 7% pomegranate peel powder displayed low lightness but high redness and yellowness. In texture analysis, hardness and chewiness of the steamed bread rose as the pomegranate peel powder content increased, while the springiness and cohesiveness declined. Both total polyphenol and DPPH radical scavenging activity significantly increased with growing levels of pomegranate peel powder. In a sensory evaluation, the group with 1% pomegranate peel powder added showed the highest sensory preference scores for color, flavor, chewiness, taste, and overall acceptability. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that steamed bread prepared with the addition of 1% pomegranate peel powder is the most optimal product for appropriate quality characteristics.

As interest in health has recently increased, many researchers have investigated the utilization of functional foods by confectioneries and bakeries. However, research on loaf bread containing beets has not been conducted. To investigate the optimal ratio of beet in loaf bread containing beet powder, characteristics of loaf bread according to 2%(B2), 4%(B4), and 6%(B6) beet powder per wheat flour were examined. The experimental results were as follows. Fermentation rate was reduced as content of beet powder increased compared with the control, whereas pH levels of dough and loaf bread significantly increased as content of beet powder increased. As content of beet powder increased, volume of loaf bread decreased, whereas specific volume increased. There was no significant difference in volume of loaf bread between the samples. As far as color changes are concerned, as content of beet powder increased, L value decreased, whereas a and b values increased with significant differences between the samples. Characteristics were examined by sensory evaluation of loaf bread containing beet powder. Color of inner texture and peel color of loaf bread significantly increased as content of beet powder increased. Size of air pores was largest in B4, and there was no significant difference in the uniformity of loaf bread between the control and experiment groups. As content of beet powder increased, rigidity of bread was reduced. Control showed the highest elasticity, whereas moisture level was highest in B2 with no significant differences between the samples. The flavor of beet was stronger as content of beet powder increased. In the preference test, B4 showed the highest preference scores for texture, flavor, taste, and overall likeness but not appearance. The experimental results showed that B4 among all control and experimental groups had the most suitable baking characteristics and an optimum content of beet powder. Therefore, B4 can be considered as the most appropriate for making loaf bread containing 4% beet powder in terms of physical and sensory characteristics. This is a new product that satisfies overall sensory preferences and has improved functionality.

Three microorganisms and one chemical preservative were tested for their effects on the fermentation and aerobic stability of whole-crop wheat, sorghum and maize silages. Wheat at the early dough stage, sorghum at the late milk stage and maize at the one-third milk line stage were harvested and ensiled in 1.5-l anaerobic jars untreated or after the following treatments: control (no additives); Lactobacillus plantarum (LP) at $1.0{\times}10^6$ colony-forming units (CFU)/g of fresh forage; L. buchneri (LB) at $1.0{\times}10^6$ CFU/g; Propionibacterium acidipropionici (PA) at $1.0{\times}10^6$ CFU/g; and a formic acid-based preservative (FAP) at 3 ml/kg of fresh forage weight. Three jars per treatment were sampled on d 90 after ensiling, for chemical and microbiological analysis. At the end of the ensiling period, 90 d, the silages were subjected to an aerobic stability test lasting 5 d. In this test, $CO_2$ produced during aerobic exposure was measured along with chemical and microbiological parameters which serve as spoilage indicators. The silages inoculated with LP had higher concentration of lactic acid compared with the controls and the other treated silages (p<0.05). The controls and LP-inoculated silages spoiled upon aerobic exposure faster than LB, PA and FAP-treated silages. The controls and LP-inoculated silages spoiled upon aerobic exposure faster than LB, PA and FAP-treated silages due to more $CO_2$ production (p<0.05) in these two groups and development of yeasts unlike the other groups. In the experiment, the silages treated with LB, PA and FAP were stable under aerobic conditions. However, the numbers of yeasts was higher in the LP-inoculated wheat, sorghum and maize silages compared with the LB, PA and FAP-treated silages. The LB, PA and FAP improved the aerobic stability of the silages by causing more extensive heterolactic fermentation that resulted in the silages with high levels of acetic and propionic acid. The use of LB, PA and FAP as silage additives can improve the aerobic stability of whole-crop wheat, sorghum and maize silages by inhibition of yeast activity.

This study was designed to investigate the effect of Korean whole wheat flour making pan bread. Korean whole wheat flour was mixed with flour at the level of 10% (WHF10), 20% (WHF20), 30% (WHF30), 40% (WHF40) and 50% (WHF50) in order to make bread. According to mixogram, the CON (control), WHF10, WHF20, WHF30, WHF40, except WHF50 were found to be proper between 3 and 5 min. in terms of peak time. CON and WHF10 for peak value were at the level of over 60%. By increasing the ratio of Korean whole wheat flour, the pH, dough fermentation rate, volume, specific volume and moisture content were decreased, and gumminess, cohesiveness and hardness except springiness, were increased for storage days. In the crumbScan analysis, the addition of Korean whole wheat flour decreased the volume and increased the crumb fineness of pan bread. In the sensory evaluation, WHF30 showed good preference in the aspect of flavor, taste and overall acceptance, but was not significant between WHF20. CON scored the highest points in volume, specific volume, moisture content and texture, but was not significant between WHF20.

This study investigated the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of breads prepared with 0, 3, 6, 9 and 12% green coffee bean powder. Fermentation rate of dough was reduced with increasing green coffee bean powder content. Volume, weight, and specific volume also decreased, whereas pH of breads increased with increasing content of green coffee bean powder. As powder concentration increased, 'L' value of breads decreased, whereas 'a' and 'b' values of breads increased. The hardness of breads increased upon addition of green coffee bean powder, whereas cohesiveness and springiness decreased. Chewiness was not significantly different among the groups. 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity was significantly elevated by addition of green coffee bean powder. In the sensory evaluation, color, flavor and texture were highest in the control group. The sample containing 3% green coffee bean powder had the highest taste score. Overall acceptability was highest in the control group but not significantly different from the control group in breads with 3% and 6% green coffee bean powder.
