Changes in the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of the uncooked food, Codonopsis lanceolata saengsik, were investigated to determine an efficient drying method, one of the most important manufacturing processes in the preparation of C. lanceolata saengsik. No changes in the proximate compositions of all samples were observed during hot-air drying at 50 and $60^{\circ}C$ and freeze-drying. The L value in the freeze-dried sample was higher than that in the hot-air dried samples, whereas the b value in the freeze-dried sample was reduced. Dietary fiber content in the hotair dried samples were higher than that in the freeze-dried sample, whereas the total phenolic compounds and crude saponin contents were lower than those in the freeze-dried sample. The highest overall acceptability values in the sensory test for color, flavor, taste, and overall acceptability were 5.63, 5.45, 5.75, and 5.85, respectively. In conclusion, the freezedrying method was the most favorable of the tested method for the manufacture of C. lanceolata saengsik.

Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) were freeze-dried to obtain a stable solid dosage form with the aid of various cryoprotectants such as trehalose, sucrose, glucose, fructose, and glycerol. Tricaprin(TC) and trilaurin(TL) were used as lipid matrices for SLNs and stabilizers were egg phosphatidylcholine and pegylated phospholipid. All cryoprotectants tested did not cause changes in mean particle size of SLNs when mixed with SLNs before freeze-drying. However, the mean particle sizes of reconstituted SLNs after freeze-drying were significantly different from those of the un-lyophilized original SLN dispersions depending on the types and concentration of cryoprotectants. Although the freeze-dried SLNs without any cryoprotectants were easily reconstituted by hand-shaking, the mean particle size drastically increased (> $8\;{\mu}m$ for TC SLNs and around $1\;{\mu}m$ for TL SLNs) compared to that of un-lyophilized original dispersion (97 nm for TC SLNs and 164 nm for TL SLNs). Trehalose and sucrose were the most effective additives to protect the SLNs during lyophilization. The reconstituted SLNs were physically stable for 24 hours when lyophilized with 12.5% trehalose, sucrose, glucose, fructose or glycerol.

Salmonella typhi Ty21a is an attenuated strain of S. typhimurium and used for oral typhoid vaccine. In an attempt to increase the stability of Ty21a manufacturing typhoid vaccine, we studied about the stability of freeze-dried Th21a including additives at various temperature conditions. In order to investigate the freeze-drying rate of Ty21a according to various absorbance, we lyophilized Ty21a by using 8% sucrose as a stabilizer. The optimal freeze-drying rate of Ty21a was appeared when OD (optical density) value of the growth was between 2.5 and 3.0. To investigate the stability of Ty21a at various temperature, the viability was measured after storaging the freeze-dried Ty21a at the room temperature, cold and freezing condition for 1 week. The viability of Ty21a in cold and freezing storage condition was 5 times more stable than in room temperature. To search the most stable additives for the freeze-dried Ty21a, the viability of Ty21a including additives at the various storage condition was estimated. Mannitol and loctose were the most stable additives. Theses results suggest that the OD value of Ty21a growth, low temperature, mannitol and lactose are important factors for the optimal freeze-drying rate, the stable storage and the most stable additives, respectively.

Drying process was applied to increase the antioxidant activity of onion powder: freeze-drying or air-drying at 50, 70, and $90^{\circ}C$ and onion extracts were obtained from each powder using water or aqueous ethanol (50%) at $25^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$. In the color analysis, the freeze-dried powders showed higher $L^*$ and lower $a^*$ and $b^*$ values than did the air-dried ones. The browning index of powders air-dried at $90^{\circ}C$ was significantly higher than that of freeze-dried powders or those air-dried at temperatures below $90^{\circ}C$. Phenolic content in the extracts was 4.02-23.12 mg gallic acid equivalent/g sample, and was the highest in the extract from the sample air-dried at $90^{\circ}C$, regardless of the extraction condition. The highest antioxidant activity, measured by 2,2-azinobis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl methods, was found in the powder air-dried at $90^{\circ}C$, which induced browning. These findings indicate that antioxidant activity depends more on browning during drying than on extraction conditions.

Effects of cooking and drying methods on the quality of shrimp, Metapenaeus joyneri, were investigated. The cholesterol content of fresh shrimp was 81.4mg/100g of dry basis. It was $5{\sim}28%$ less in freeze dried shrimps as compared to hot air dried shrimps. The volatile basic nitrogen and trimethylamine contents of hot air dried shrimp was higher than those of freeze dried one, but total viable count of freeze dried shrimp was lower than that of hot air dried one. The color of cooked-shrimps was much brighter than uncooked-fresh shrimp. Freeze dried shrimp was lighter than hot air dried one. Total color difference $({\Delta}E)$, however, was opposite to its lightness. The mineral component of fresh shrimp was composed of calcium predominantly, followed by potassium and sodium, which were 96% of the total mineral contents. Cooking and drying methods did not affect the mineral content.

This study investigated the suitability of freeze-dried ice plant (Mesembryanthemum crystallinum) as the source of an edible healthy salt alternative by examining the content of NaCl, D-pinitol, total phenols, total flavonoids, and DPPH radical scavenging activity compared with those of natural and purified salts. Our results showed that the NaCl content of freeze-dried ice plant, natural and purified salts was 19, 94 and 99%, respectively. The D-pinitol content of freeze-dried ice plant was 777 mg/100 g, whereas D-pinitol was not detected in either natural or purified salts. The total phenol and flavonoid contents of freeze-dried ice plant were 115 mg GAE/100 g and 985 mg RE/100 g, respectively. The DPPH radical scavenging activity of freeze-dried ice plant was markedly higher than that of natural and purified salts. Altogether, these results show that freeze-dried ice plant contains both NaCl and bioactive compounds and can be used as a source of edible salt with positive health effects.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the change of flavor compounds of freeze-dried garlic and garlic roasted with soybean oil and sesame oil. Freeze-dried garlic and ground raw garlic roasted with oils was prepared at $180^{\circ}C$ for 5 minutes. Volatile compounds of garlic samples were obtained by Likens-Nickerson distillation/solvent extraction and identified by GC and GC/MS. Sulfur compounds, methyl allyl sulfide, diallyl sulfide, methyl allyl disulfide, dimethyl trisulfide, diallyl disulfide, methyl allyl trisulfide and diallyl trisulfide were the major volatile in garlic flavor which was more than 98% of the total volatile compounds. The total amount of sulfur compounds in freeze-dried garlic roasted with soybean oil was decreased to 20% compare to that of garlic flavor; however, 10 pyrazines such as 2-methyl pyrazine, 2,6-dimethyl pyrazine, 2-ethyl-5-methyl pyrazin and 3-ethyl-2,5-dimethyl pyrazine which were not originated from both freeze-dried garlic and soybean oil were identified. They might be generated from thermal interactions of sugars and nonvolatile flavor precursors of garlic. In freeze-dried garlic roasted with sesame oil, the amount of diallyl sulfide, methyl allyl disulfide, dimethyl trisulfide increased whereas diallyl disulfide completely disappeared. The amount of two cyclic compounds 3,4-dihydro-3-vinyl-1,2-dithiin and 2-vinyl-4H-1,3-dithiin, which were artifacts from allicin, increased in roasted garlic with sesame oil.

This study investigated the quality of noodles added with different amounts of freeze-dried fish scale collagen mixture powder (FDCMP). Freeze-dried fish scale collagen mixture was prepared by mixing ingredients (fish scale collagen : herb extracts : dextrin : distilled water=1:0.75:0.25:2), which were freeze-dried. Noodles were prepared by adding 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0% (w/w) FDCMP based on flour weight. Cooked noodle weight and volume decreased with increasing amount of FDCMP, whereas turbidity of soups significantly increased. The water-binding capacity of FDCMP was higher than that of flour. Uncooked and cooked noodles showed reduced L values as well as increased a and b values increasing amount of FDCMP in the flour composite. Hardness and chewiness of cooked noodles significantly decreased with increased FDCMP content. Adhesiveness, cohesiveness, and gumminess increased with increased FDCMP content. Springiness and resilience were not significantly different between the control and FDCMP group. Finally, sensory evaluation results indicated that texture, mouthfeel, and overall preference of noodles containing 0.5% FDCMP were higher compared to those of the other samples. Based on cooking properties and sensory evaluation, freeze-dried fish scale collagen mixture powder up to 0.5% could be substituted for wheat flour to improve noodle quality.

This research intends to research on the optimal cooking techniques by adding perilla leaves to raw noodles, in which it has various effects and functions in sterilization. The water content measured in the dough added with raw perilla leaf juice came out high as more perilla leaves were added. More freeze-dried perilla leaf powder decreased water content. The pH of the dough increased significantly as the added ingredients increased with significant differences among the samples. The chromaticity of the dough deliberately decreased in both a and b as the amount of raw perilla leaves in dough increased. The L value of raw noodles with freeze-dried perilla leaves tended to decrease as more ingredients were added. The result of the RVA analysis on the dough with raw perilla leaves showed that the gluten decreased with more raw perilla leaves added. The result of the RVA analysis on the dough with freeze-dried perilla leaf powder indicated that the initial pasting tempo tended to increase significantly with more powder added except for 5% and 7% of powder added with no significant difference. The values dropped as the freeze-dried powder was added Minimum viscosity tended to decrease definitely as more freeze-dried perilla leaf powder was added. The dough's measurement results of WRC showed that water absorbing power of both dough with raw perilla leaves and that with freeze-dried perilla leaf powder reduced significantly as more perilla leaf powder were added.
