Recently, though mulberry's superiority as a functional food has been proven, its use as a food material is limited. Therefore, in this study, to develop jelly using mulberry that is compatible with Korean tastes as health functional food by grafting the method to manufacture jelly consumed as a dessert or a snack in the west, according to the central composite design, mulberry jelly was produced by varying the content of citric acid ($X_1$), sucrose ($X_2$), and gelatin ($X_3$) at 5 levels. And by applying the response surface methodology, rheology and sensory preference experiment results were analyzed, the optimization of mulberry jelly manufacturing condition was carried out, and studies on the analysis of composition were performed. As the sensory preference of mulberry jelly, except the flavor, the remaining hardness, elasticity, sweetness, color, and the overall quality were found to be significant. And similarly, it was found to be influenced greatly by gelatin content generally. Based on the overlapped part of categories, in the range of factors that satisfy all the sensory categories, the value located in the middle was calculated, the optimization point was obtained, and it was found to be 6.2 g citric acid, 141.0 g sugar, and 13.5 g gelatin.

This study investigated the impacts from the recognition and satisfaction of Korean foods on the revisit intentions of japanese tourists to Korea. The subjects of this study consisted of 365 Japanese tourists visiting Korea. The findings are summarized as follows: (1) the recognition of Korean food included 'the quality of food material is fresh and good'(3.99 pints), 'Korean food is nutritious and healthful food'(3.89 points), and 'Koran food consisted of grains and vegetables, and the cooking methods were developed specially'(3.88 points) in the order. (2) They were highly satisfied with the 'nutrition of the food,' 'taste of the food,' and 'quantity of the food,' in terms of the Korean food quality however, they were not satisfied with 'Japanese marks on ingredients,' 'sanitary,' 'smell,' and 'freshness.' (3) The most influential recognition variables to affect revisit intentions to Korea was 'health knowledge' followed by 'unique,' 'preference,' 'experience,' and 'interest.' (4) The most influential satisfaction variable to affect revisit intentions to Korea was 'food and menu' followed by 'translation and understanding,' and 'flavor and appearance.'

Cacao bean husk (Theobroma cacao L.) contains a high level of dietary fiber and therefore can be used as raw material in food processing. The objective of the present study was to measure the physicochemical properties and sensory traits of emulsion-type pork sausages with various levels of cacao bean husk powder (0.25%, 0.5%, 0.75%, 1%, and 2%). The moisture content in cooked sausages increased as the level of cacao bean husk power increased, whereas the protein content decreased (p<0.05). With respect to color, as the level of cacao bean husk power increased, there was a decrease in lightness and yellowness, but there was a considerable increase in redness (p<0.05). Cacao bean husk powder exhibited a positive effect on emulsion stability and apparent viscosity. In the sensory evaluation, increased level of cacao bean husk increased flavor acceptability; the 0.75% and 1% treatment groups showed significantly high overall acceptability (p<0.05). The thiobarbituric acid reactive species content of cooked sausages indicated that with the addition of cacao bean husk powder significantly inhibited lipid oxidation in the sausages during refrigerated storage (p<0.05). Overall, the findings of the present study suggest that adding 0.75% and 1% cacao bean husk powder as a natural ingredient in sausages can help develop meat products with excellent qualities.

High GABA-enriched yeast extract, for various nutritionally and pharmaceutically important functional foods, was prepared using a novel isolate of Debaryomyces hansenii JBCC541. Under optimized conditions, GABA conversion rates are significantly enhanced up to 7.55 g/l by D. hansenii JBCC541, increasing their synthesis yield 40 times. The total amino acid content of the prepared yeast extract was 10733.86 mg/l (257.36 mg/g), consisting of alanine, lysine, glutamine, leucine, and valine as the primary amino acids. The GABA content was significantly enhanced up to 6790 mg/l (162.80 mg/g) in the presence of glutamic acid, with approximately 10-fold higher GABA production. Flavor amino acids were also highly enhanced, indicating that the prepared yeast extract might be useful for preparing various functional and sensuous foods. Our results were promising as a GABA-enriched yeast extract preparation tool ensuring a suitable food material level with the potential for functionally enhanced food industrial applications.

Spray dried powdered juice was processed from concentrated extract of jujube(Zizyphus jujuba MILLER). Spray drying of the extract solution could not be operated to have powder product by itself over whole concentration range and required addition of some carrier or support material. The concentrated extract of 26$^{\circ}$Bx was combined with carrier material solution to have a final concentration of 30$^{\circ}$Bx, and then spray dried. Proper addition level of carrier solid for physical and flavor quality of the powder product was determined to be 1 : 1 ratio to jujube solid. Combined use of maltose and gum arabic produced the best quality product among the studied carrier materials, which were maltose, dextrin, condensed milk and gum arabic. Enzymatic treatment in extraction process could increase the yield by 13~39%, but hurt the sensory quality of powdered juice. Treatment by 0.5% pectinase(0.05 unit/ml) may be used with lesser quality change for improved yield.

Research regarding respiration rate, off-flavor related material and freshness maintenance effect of active MA mini-packaging on perilla leaves has been carried in this study. Respiration rate was highly maintained at high oxygen treatments ($CO_2:O_2:N_2$=0:30:70 and 0:50:50), higher than non-treatment and low oxygen treatments (6:2:92, 0:10:90) during the storage period, and ethylene production was relatively higher. However, off-flavor related materials, acetaldehyde and ethanol production was noticeably low. Weight losses of non-treatment and low-oxygen treatment were about 1.8 and 1.4%, respectively. At the fifth day of storage there was no weight loss. Ascorbic acid content was 13.3 mg/100 g F.W. at the first day of storage. At the third day of storage non-treatment showed the lowest value of ascorbic acid, 8.8 mg/100 g F.W. Ascorbic acid content of active MA treatment gradually decreased without a striking difference as the storage day extended. Chlorophyll content was the lowest at the fifth day of storage with non-treatment, 47.5 (SPAD-502 unit) while the active MA treatment maintained high level of chlorophyll content, 53.0. Sensory evaluation (vision) showed that marketability gradually decreased but was maintained in high oxygen treatments (0:30:70 and 0:50:50), even at the fifth day of storage. Occurrence of off-flavor in non-treatment at the fifth day of storage was extremely low, 2.6; whereas high in high oxygen treatment, 3.4. Active MA packaging maintained freshness two more days at room temperature (about $27^{\circ}C$).

A comparison was made of the effect of different packaging materials on storability of mixed sprout vegetables (alfalfa, broccoli, cabbage, radish, and red radish) stored at $8^{\circ}C$. They were packaged by several kinds of films that were 50 fm thickness low-density polyethylene film (PE 50), 50 fm thickness polypropylene film (PP 50), $50{\mu}m$ thickness ceramic film (CE 50), $25{\mu}m$ thickness ceramic film (CE 25), $10\sim13{\mu}m$ thickness polyethylene film (wrap), and polyethylene terephthalate box with ventilation hole (box). The fresh weight of mixed sprouts packaged with different materials decreased below to 2% except box packages that decreased around 7% compared with initial weight. The atmospheres that were developed inside the different materials during storage differed significantly. The carbon dioxide and oxygen concentration of packages were kept properly with 5% in CE 25, but the PE 50 and CE 50 treatments showed higher carbon dioxide and lower oxygen concentration. So the off-flavor of mixed sprouts was more severe in the PE 50 and CE 50 treatment. The ethylene concentration of packages showed lowest in box treatment, followed by PP 50, wrap and CE 25 treatment. The overall quality of mixed sprouts was lower in PE 50 and CE 50 than CE 25 treatment after 10 days storage, supposed to be resulted from highest ethylene concentration and lowest oxygen concentration. Conclusionally, the CE 25 film that showed below 1% fresh weight loss, 5% carbon dioxide, 5% oxygen and below 4 ppm ethylene concentration in package may be a proper packaging material for mixed sprout vegetables.
