This study aimed to establish the optimum level of palm kernel meal in the diet of Santa Ines lambs based on the sensorial characteristics and fatty acid profile of the meat. We used 32 lambs with a starting age of 4 to 6 months and mean weight of $22{\pm}2.75kg$, kept in individual stalls. The animals were fed with Tifton-85 hay and a concentrate mixed with 0.0, 6.5, 13.0 or 19.5% of palm kernel meal based on the dry mass of the complete diet. These levels formed the treatments. Confinement lasted 80 days and on the last day the animals were fasted and slaughtered. After slaughter, carcasses were weighed and sectioned longitudinally, along the median line, into two antimeres. Half-carcasses were then sliced between the 12th and 13th ribs to collect the loin (longissimus dorsi), which was used to determine the sensorial characteristics and fatty acid profile of the meat. For sensorial evaluation, samples of meat were given to 54 judges who evaluated the tenderness, juiciness, appearance, aroma and flavor of the meat using a hedonic scale. Fatty acids were determined by gas chromatography. The addition of palm kernel meal to the diet had no effect on the sensorial characteristics of meat juiciness, appearance, aroma or flavor. However, tenderness showed a quadratic relationship with the addition of the meal to the diet. The concentration of fatty acids C12:0, C14:0 and C16:0 increased with the addition of palm kernel meal, as did the sum of medium-chain fatty acids and the atherogenicity index. Up to of 19.5% of the diet of Santa Ines lambs can be made up of palm kernel meal without causing significant changes in sensorial characteristics. However, the fatty acid profile of the meat was altered.

Cooked soybeans were fermented with B. subtilis and B. natto for 48 hrs and 74 hrs. The odor concentrates of during these Chungkookjang fermentation were obtained with a simultaneous distillation and extraction system. The seperation and identification were carried out by GC and GC-MS. The main components of the cooked odor concentrate of soybeans were 3-methyl-1-butanol, 1-pentanol and 1-octen-3-ol etc.. In Chungkookjang (B. subtilis inoculation), 3-methyl-1-butanol, 1-pentanol and 1-octen-3-ol remained but alkyl pyrazines such as 2,5-dimethyl pyrazine, trimethyl pyrazine and tetramethyl pyrazine increased and those increased during the fermentation. In Chungkookjang(B. natto inoculation), 3-methyl-1-butanol, 1-pentanol and 1-octen-3-ol, main components of cooked soybeans decreased and alkyl pyrazines increased, especially, tetramethyl pyrazine remarkably increased during fermentation. From the result, it seems that alkyl pyrazines caused the characteristic odor of Chungkookjang and mask the beany odor.

In the pursuit of practical usage for Codonopsis lanceolata and development of functional processed food material, the research on the product characterization is being performed through the manufacturing of Yanggaeng which is extracted from the Codonopsis lanceolata skin concentrate. By adding Codonopsis lanceolata skin extracts (0, 40, 60, 80, 100%) to the product, the chemical property characterization and organoleptic test of the produced Yanggaeng are being conducted. The scavenging effects on DPPH free radical have a significant proportional relationship with the addition of Codonopsis lanceolata skin extracts as 61.30 for 100% added group as compared with 52.72 for the null-addition group. It is considered that the antioxidative activity increases with the addition of the Codonopsis lanceolata skin extraction as the SOD similar activity rate was increased to 49.23% from 39.31%, the flavor preference was ranked as 80%>60%>0%>100%>40% showing that 60~80% of Codonopsis lanceolata skin extraction addition seems to be the proper amount.

Ninety feeder steers, predominantly Herefords weighing 280 kg, were assigned at random to each of nine diets: basal (high concentrate); 25 or 50% of untreated rice straw (25- or 50 URS) or ammoniated rice straw (25- or 50 ARS); a 50:50 mixture of URS - alfalfa or ARS - alfalfa replacing a proportion of the basal at 25 and 50%. Animals were slaughtered after 154 or 161 days of feeding. The cattle fed 50% URS had the lowest (P<.05) carcass weight, dressing & external fat thickness, kidney, pelvic and heart fat, rib eye area, marbling score, quality and yield grades, followed by cattle fed 50% ARS, 50% rice straw/alfalfa, and 25% rice straw alone or 25% rice straw/alfalfa mixture. Ammoniation of rice straw improved all measured traits. A 25% substitution of basal diet with untreated or ammoniated rice straw and a 50% substitution with rice straw/alfalfa mixture did not significantly affect carcass traits compared to the basal group. Only 50% ARS and 50% URS cattle showed differences in body composition (P<.05) with lower fat and higher water and protein contents. No significant differences were found in shear value, panel tenderness, connective tissue, juiciness, flavor and overall palatability of meat from steers fed the basal, ARS or URS diets.

Our final goal was to manufacture low-calorie healthy seafood spreads using high pressure processing. Prior to developing the spread products, we performed a nationwide survey of consumers aged in their teens and twenties (n=585). The questionnaire was designed to gain insights from consumers on spread products, including Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA), recipes, market prospects, etc. Consumers responded that 'price, calorie, fat content, sanitary, nutrition, and food additive' should be improved, in that order. They also thought that fruits and vegetables are highly acceptable in recipes of seafood spreads. In addition, consumers pointed that we should concentrate on 'taste, sanitary, flavor, nutrition, and price' to make spreads more successful. Regarding market prospects, consumers rated spreads with scores over 2.96/5.00, which means the market for seafood spreads is sufficient. The consumers' response provided guidelines for developing and manufacturing low-calorie healthy seafood spreads.

Thirty one Hanwoo steers were used in a completely randomized design experiment to see the effects of concentrate feeding method (group vs. individual feeding) and age at slaughter (26 vs. 28 months of age) on growth performance, feed intake and carcass characteristics. Steers were randomly assigned to one of four groups, G26 (group feeding slaughtered at 26 months of age), G28 (group feeding slaughtered at 28 months of age), I26 (individual feeding slaughtered at 26 months of age) or I28 (individual feeding slaughtered at 28 months of age). Amount of concentrate were restricted to 1.5% of BW for the growing period and 1.8% of BW for the early fattening period in both groups. For the late fattening period, concentrate were given ad libitum for G26 and G28, but were given up to 1.7% of BW for I26 and I28. Average daily gains were higher in individual feeding groups (I26 and I28) than those in group feeding groups (G26 and G28) for the early fattening period (p<0.05). ADGs were higher in group feeding groups than those in individual feeding groups (p<0.05). Concentrate intake in individual feeding groups tended to be higher compared to that in group feeding groups for the early fattening period, but tended to be higher in group feeding groups compared to that in individual feeding groups for the late fattening period. Feeding method or slaughter age had no significant effects on carcass characteristics, yield grade and quality grade. Shear force and tenderness of longissmus muscle were higher in groups slaughtered at 28 months of age than in groups slaughtered at 26 months of age (p<0.05). Feeding method or slaughter age had no effects on cooking loss, water holding capacity, juiciness, flavor, moisture, protein and fat of longissmus muscle.

For the effective utilization of skipjack tuna viscera, a study was carried out to investigate the applicability of viscera protein hydrolysate (VPH) as a protein supplement in the processing of imitation sauce and bread. The optimum extraction and hydrolyzation conditions for the production of viscera protein concentrate (VPC) and viscera protein hydrolysate (VPH) were determined. Boiled viscera could be extracted by ethyl alcohol without significant deterioration as a raw material for the further processing. High quality of VPH could be obtained by hydrolysis with 1% pepsin under its optimum condition $(pH\;1.65,\;37^{\circ}C)$. The solubilities of VPC and VPH were 40% and 90%, respectively, and the essential amino acid contents in two products were 48.7% and 63.2%, respectively. Especially, the content of taurine, a physiologically important amino acid, was 9.4% in VPH. In experimental preparations of imitation sauce and bread, panel test showed that the supplementation of 10% of VPH in imitation sauce and $3{\sim}5%$ of VPH in bread was well accepted in sensory characteristics such as color, flavor, taste and texture.

Yacon (Smallanthus sonchifolius) contains high amounts of fructooligosaccharides and has been known to promote health of the intestinal tract and to have anti-oxidative and anti-cancer activities. Yacon concentrates were added to make five different pan breads, each with the addition 0% (YE 0), 25% (YE 25), 50% (YE 50), 75% (YE 75), and 100% (YE 100) of yacon concentrates instead of sugar. The higher the yacon concentration in the dough, the more time was needed for the dough to rise. Higher yacon concentration also affected the color of the bread by lowering the L-value and raising the a and b values. The hardness and chewiness of the bread significantly decreased with increasing yacon concentration, while cohesiveness increased. In the bread sensory evaluation, the intensity of crust color, crumb color, yacon flavor, sweetness, yacon taste, moistness, and residual mouth feel were increased with increasing yacon concentrates, while the uniformity of crumb pores slightly decreased. The consumer acceptance of taste, flavor, texture, and overall acceptance were increased with increasing yacon concentrations. As a conclusion, the substitution of yacon concentrates for sugar improved bread quality and increased consumer acceptance.

The food quality of lupin seed, i.e. soaking, cooking, sprout growing and mold growing for fermentation, was investigated by using the seed of Lupinus angustifolius harvested in Western Australia. A method to produce lupin seed protein concentrate (LPC) was developed, and the wage of LPC in Korean food system was investigated. The water soaking rate of lupin seed was faster than that of soybean, but the cooking rate of lupin seed was much slower compared to soybean. The thermal softening time, $D_{100}$, was 345 min for lupin seed and 84 min for soybean. A two-phase solvent extraction system consisting of haxane-alcohol-water could effectively remove the residual bitter taste, lipid and yellow pigments of lupin seed flour, and the resulting LPC contained over 50% protein and had bland flavor and milky white color. Treatment of LPC with carbohydrate decomposing enzymes resulted in a product of more soluble and higher concentration of protein. Methods to produce lupin seed vegetable milk and lactic beverages from LPC products were discussed.

A yeast strain producing fruity-floral aroma was isolated from soil and identified as Hansenula saturnus var. saturnus. Glucose was found to be the best carbon source and sodium nitrate or phenylalanine as nitrogen source in terms of the nature and the intensity of the aroma produced by the isolated yeast. Seventeen compounds, mainly esters and alcohols, were identified in the ether-pentane extract of the culture broth by gas chromatography and/or coupled gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Ethyl alcohol, isobutyl alcohol, isoamyl alcohol, phenethyl alcohol and their acetate esters together with ethyl caprylate were the major compounds in the aroma concentrate. Three unusual compounds, dibutyl disulfide, 3-methyl pentanoic acid and methyl pentanoate were also tentatively identified in the culture broth of the isolated yeast.
