This study was performed to aid promotion of fish paste containing Lycii fructus powder as a food. The tested concentrations of Lycii fructus powder were 0, 1, 3, 5, and 7%. All the fish paste samples had 37% water content. The L values of the samples decreased as the concentration of Lycii fructus powder increased(p<0.001), and the a- and b-value increased(p<0.001). All samples with 3 mm of thickness had good flexibility and did not break even after four times of folding. In texture meter tests, the cohesiveness increased, but gumminess and brittleness decreased according to increasing concentration of Lycii fructus' powder. In the sensory evaluation, scores for color, flavor, pleasant taste, hardness and adhesiveness increased with increasing powder concentration; however oily taste was decreased. The 3% Lycii fructus powder sample had the highest acceptance scores in terms of appearance, flavor, taste, texture and overall acceptability. The results suggest that Lycii fructus powder can be applied to fish paste for both quality and functionality.

Texture and descriptive sensory characteristics of a Korean rice cake (Karedduk) added with mixture of trehalose and Sun-Tender were investigated after 2, 24, and 48 hrs of storage at $5^{\circ}C$. A central composite design was used for treatment arrangement. The trehalose were added in 0, 3, 6, 9 and 12% levels and Sun-Tender added in 0, 0.3, 0.6, 0.9, and 1.2% levels to dry rice flour. The mixture amounts of trehalose and Sun-Tender on texture and descriptive sensory characteristics of a Korean rice cake (Karedduk) were optimized using response surface methodology (RSM). The two independent variables selected for the RSM were amounts of trehalose ($X_1$) and amounts of Sun-Tender ($X_2$). The predicted value at stationary point or a minimum for texture hardness by RSM was found as 591.5440 after 24 hrs of storage at $5^{\circ}C$. Also the adhesiveness, hardness, cohesiveness and sweetness by sensory characteristics were significantly different as compared to the control. The results suggested that a Korean rice cake (Karedduk) added with mixture of trehalose and Sun-Tender can be made from the mixture amounts of trehalose 9.5826% and Sun-Tender 0.2216% in retarding retrogradation.

Texture properties of a Korean rice cake (Karedduk) added with carbohydrate materials after 0, 2, 6, 24 and 30 hrs of storage at $5^{\circ}C$ were investigated using textural characteristics and sensory descriptive analysis. Carbohydrate materials such as powdered sugar, trehalose, fructooligosaccharide (95%), isomalto, healtholigo, and galactooligosaccharide (50%) were added in 0, 1, 5 and 10% levels to dry rice flour. The texture profile analysis by Texture Analyzer revealed that adhesiveness and cohesiveness of the Korean rice cake (Karedduk) added with carbohydrate materials were similar to those of the control in trends, while hardness was low compared to the control except for fructooligosaccharide (95%) 5% and healtholigo 1% addition. The hardness and sweetness by sensory characteristics were significantly different compared to the control. Instrumental hardness was correlated with sensory hardness. Lastly, the Korean rice cake (Karedduk) added with carbohydrate materials except fructooligosaccharide (95%) 5% and healtholigo 1% addition was effective in delaying retrogradation.

This study was conducted to evaluate the qualities of mackerel Scomber japonicus sausage prepared with Theragra chalcogramma surimi (TS, A grade), Nemipterus virgatus surimi (NS, A grade) (0, 5, 7, 10%), and 7% NS with starch (0, 1, 2, 3%). The whiteness of the mackerel sausage was significantly increased by adding TS and NS, but that of the NS with starch groups was decreased compared with the control. The hardness increased significantly with the addition of TS, whereas the NS and NS with starch groups showed no considerable differences compared with the control. The gel strength was not significantly different among the mackerel sausage additive groups. In the sensory evaluation, the mackerel sausages containing 5% TS, 7% NS, and 7% NS with 2% starch had the highest overall preference. In conclusion, these results suggest that 5% TS, 7% NS, and 7% NS with 2% starch improve the quality, texture and sensory properties of mackerel sausage.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of different concentrations of WSP (wheat sprout powder) and ISP (isolated soy protein) on the quality of breakfast sausage. Treatments were formulated as follows: Control, T1 (2.0% ISP), T2 (1.5% ISP + 0.5% WSP), T3 (1.0% ISP + 1.0% WSP), T4 (0.5% ISP + 1.5% WSP) and T5 (2.0% WSP). The treatments were analyzed for color, pH, cooking loss, emulsion stability, protein solubility, viscosity, texture properties and sensory evaluation. Lightness and redness were reduced and yellowness was increased as increased level of WSP, due to the dark green color of WSP (p<0.05). The pH values of all samples were affected by WSP which has lower pH (p<0.05). The emulsion stability and cooking loss of treatments were improved with increasing level of WSP (p<0.05). The protein solubility, viscosity and overall texture properties of the sausage indicated significant differences in relation to the level of WSP and ISP (p<0.05). The sensory evaluation indicated that the greatest flavor and overall acceptability in sausage was achieved at WSP 1% combination with ISP 1% (T3) (p<0.05). Therefore, these results indicate that breakfast sausage containing 1% WSP and 1% ISP is the optimal formulation, taking into consideration the overall physico-chemical properties and sensory evaluation.

This study was performed to investigate the phyico-chemical characteristics of breast meat from spent hens (SP) in comparison with the same part from the broilers (BR). The moisture and crude protein contents for SP were 72.56% and 24.26%, which were lower than 75.87% and 24.64% for BR. Crude fat and crude ash contents in SP were 0.45% and 1.00%, which were higher than the BR contents of 0.41% and 0.51%. The respective L, a and b value for SP were 48.61, 2.40 and 2.42, which were lower than the BR values of 49.41, 1.45 and 3.06 respectively. The pH for SP was 5.89, which was higher than pH 5.79 for BR. The WHC for SP was 50.29%, which was lower than that of BR at 62.31%. SP scored 28.04% in the heating loss test, which was significantly higher than 19.09% for BR. The shear forces for SP and BR were 4.86 kg and 1.36 kg respectively, which meant that the texture of SP was much tougher than that of BR. Hardness for SP was 8.89 kg while that of BR was 3.92 kg indicating that the SP texture is firmer than that of BR. Oleic acid was most abundant fatty acid in both samples and was at 44.15% in SP and 27.68% in BR.

Texture analysis, sensory evaluation, and scanning electronic microscopic (SEM) observation were conducted to evaluate the effects of different calcium salts (calcium lactate, calcium acetate, and calcium chloride) and vitamin C on the textural properties of kimchi, gamma-irradiated at 25 kGy. Increase of the hardness and sensory score were observed in the kimchi pretreated with calcium salt or vitamin C as compared with the untreated and irradiated kimchi. And the hardness and sensory quality of the co-pretreated sample with 0.01% of calcium lactate and 0.3% of vitamin C were the highest after 30 days at $35^{\circ}C$, which indicates that the co-pretreatment is effective in preventing a decrease of the texture and sensory qualities of kimchi by gamma irradiation. Also, this result was supported by the SEM observation.

Fresh mushrooms are vulnerable to browning and tissue changes after harvest. This study monitored the external appearance, physicochemical quality indicators, and nutritional and functional components of a white beech mushroom (Hypsizygus marmoreus) variety (EG2020) newly developed in Korea during cold storage for up to 42 days. Two existing varieties of white H. marmoreus, namely H6 from Korea and HKT from Japan, were used for comparison. The mechanical texture of EG2020 was superior to H6 and HKT due to the increasing hardness of the pileus with time. Browning, in terms of the total color difference during storage, was found to be the most severe in HKT. In terms of composition, EG2020 had the highest total free sugar content, a large amount of organic acids, and higher sugar content than H6 and HKT. EG2020 also contained the largest amount of 𝛽-glucan, and its amount increased during storage. In sensory evaluation, EG2020 received higher scores than HKT in flavor, taste, appearance, and texture. Therefore, the EG2020 variety is more stable than HKT during storage and distribution.

The healthy yogurt containing pumpkin was developed and evaluated an antioxidant effect of pumpkin in yogurt during storage. For the preparation of pumpkin yogurts, 15, 20 or 25 g of pumpkin level. and 5, 6 or 7 g of sugar level were added to 100 ml milk. There was a trend for more desirable color and texture of pumpkin yogurt at 20 g pumpkin level than 15 or 25 g pumpkin level. Pumpkin yogurt contained 7 g sugar level had a more desirable flavor, texture and overall accetability than those contained 5 or 6 g sugar level. To evaluate antioxidant effect of pumkin in yogurt during stroage, yogurts were prepared by milk alone, with pumpkin, with sugar, and with sugar and pumpkin. The sugar and pumpkin levels in yogurt were 7 g and 20 g per 100 ml milk. The malondialdehyde(MDA) content of yogurt prepared by milk alone were significandy affected by days of storage. During 13 days storage of yogurt, pumpkin and sugar exhibited antioxidant effect.
