Color characteristics were investigated for white ginseng powder immediately and during storage following treatments of gamma ray or ethylene oxide (EO) for microbial decontamination. The variation in fatand water-soluble pigments of the sample was negligible immediately after both treatments, however an apparent increase was observed in the samples stored for four months at $25^{\circ}C$ and RH 90%, in the order of nontreated control, EO-fumigated, and 5 key-irradiated samples. Hunter's color a and b values of white ginseng powder increased slightly in proportion to irradiation doses, whereas EO fumigation caused a decrease in L value and an increase in a and b values of the sample, showing overall color difference (${\delta}^E$) of 1.8. Considering the higher ${\delta}^E$ in the higher RH conditions, airtight packaging and sterilization using like gamma ray were considered an effective means for maintaining high quality of color characteristics in stored white ginseng powder.

Physicochemical, microbiological, and sensory properties of barleys irradiated by gamma ray at 1.2kGy, 10.1kGy, or 30.5kGy were investigated every 40 days during the storage at 25℃ and 50% relative humidity. Moisture content of the irradiated barleys decreased but crude lipid content increased during the storage. TBA values increased in proportion to the irradiation dose and to the storage period. In Hunter's color, L, a, and b values of 30.5kGy dose irradiated barleys were higher than those of the non irradiated barleys right after irradiation and this trend continued during the storage. Numbers of mesophilic and psychrophilic bacteria in the non irradiated barleys and 1.2kGy dose irradiated barleys were higher than those in the barleys irradiated at 10.1kGy and 30.5kGy during the storage. Numbers of yeasts and molds in the irradiated and non irradiated barleys were low and they did not greatly increase during the storage. In sensory evaluation, acidic odor of the barleys was strong at the 10.1kGy and 30.5 kGy dose irradiation but barley odor and humid odor were not significantly different among the groups depending upon the radiation dose and storage period.

This study was performed to evaluate the quality characteristics and antioxidative activities of cookies prepared with different amounts of purple sweet potato powder. Moisture and crude ash contents were lowest in the control group followed in order by the 10%, 20%, and 30% purple sweet potato powder addition groups. The lightness and yellowness values measured by Hunter color system decreased based on the amount of purple sweet potato powder concentration added to cookies. The total phenolic compound and anthocyanin contents were the highest in 30% purple sweet potato powder added cookies. The DPPH radical scavenging activity of 30% purple sweet potato powder added cookies showed the highest values among groups. In the sensory evaluation, the scores for taste, texture and overall preference were significantly highest in cookies with 10% and 20% purple sweet potato powder. Considering the scores of antioxidant activity and sensory evaluation, the concentration of between 10% and 20% addition of purple sweet potato powder would be ideal for development of functional cookies.

Blanching conditions for immatured soybeans were optimized by analyzing the effects of various time/temperature blanch treatment on the activities of peroxidase and lipoxygenase, the stability of vitamin C and color, and moisture content in immatured soybeans for the purpose of minimizing quality deterioration during frozen storage. Blanching at 96$^{\circ}C$ for 70 sec led to maximum inactivation of lipoxygenase in the immatured soybeans, while my blanching conditions tested in this study were not enough to inactivate peroxidase. Blanching at 82$^{\circ}C$ for 60 sec resulted in the highest amount of vitamin C remaining in the immatured soybeans after blanching. Hunter -a/b ratios of immatured soybeans blanched at 82$^{\circ}C$ for 60 sec and hue values (ΔE) of the immatured soybeans blanched at 76$^{\circ}C$ for 60 sec showed the closest values to those of fresh products. The changes in moisture content of immatures soybeans was not so significant after blanching. In conclusion, it was suggested that immatured soybeans be blanched at 96$^{\circ}C$ for 70 sec to minimize lipoxygenase activity and resulting quality deterioration, while blanching at 82$^{\circ}C$ for 60 sec was recommended to stabilize vitamin C and color.

The effects of ascorbic acid (AA) alone or in combination with sodium acetate/calcium lactate (AA+SACL) and chitosan (AA+CH) on the physicochemical properties and microbial growth of beef and pork patties stored at $5^{\circ}C$ were investigated. The patties were case-ready packed in an air-containing polypropylene (PP) tray and sealed with polyethylene terephthlate (PETP)/casted polypropylene (CPP) top film. Treatments with AA, AA+SACL and AA+CH were effective in inhibiting total aerobic bacteria from day 4 compared to the control. In general, thiobarbituric acid, volatile basic nitrogen, and hue values in treated samples were lower than the control over the storage, whereas Hunter ${\alpha}^*$ (redness) values and sensory scores for surface color and off-odor were higher. Regarding quality and shelf-life extension, ground beef and pork patties treated with AA+SACL produced the most desirable results among all treatments during storage.

This study was aimed to develop a gruel using rice extrudates and to evaluate physicochemical properties of Tarakjuk (milk porridge; MP) prepared with milk (M) and rice powder (RP, control), rice extrudate (RE), or enzyme treated rice extrudates (ETR). Pasting property of ETR was significantly different from those of RP or RE with significantly low peak viscosity, breakdown and setback values in the ETR sample. Viscosity of MP prepared with ETR was also significantly low, as compared to that of control (> 900 cP). The total solids and spreadability of MP with ETR was higher than those with RP or RE. Hunter color values varied significantly depending on enzyme treatment levels in ETR samples with enzyme dose-dependent increase in b-value. Average starch digestibility of ETR sample was higher by 10.2% than that of control sample. DPPH radical scavenging activities of ETR samples were greater than those of RE or RP. These results indicated that ETR could be beneficial for preparing easy-drink and diet food with higher starch digestibility and fluidity, especially for gastric tube-fed patients.

This study was carried out to investigate the quality characteristics and storage of wet noodle with added Cheonnyuncho powder. Wet noodles were prepared at concentration of 1, 3, and 5%(w/w) of the fruit based on flour weight. Moisture content of the noodles with or without Cheonnyuncho powder was 34~36%. Ca, K, Mg, Fe, Mn and Zn contents of Cheonnyuncho noodle were increased at increasing concentrations of Cheonnyuncho powder. Cooked weight, volume, and water absorption decreased with increased fruit powder, whereas turbidity increased. For hunter's color values of noodles, L(lightness) and b(yellowness) values decreased with increasing concentration of Cheonnyuncho powder, whereas a(redness) value increased. For mechanical characteristics of the noodles, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, chewiness, elasticity, and brittleness of cooked noodle with Cheonnyuncho powder were lower than those of control. The pH of Cheonnyuncho noodle was lower than that of control during storage. Bacterial counts of wet noodle with 1% and 3% fruit powders were lower than those of the control and 5% fruit powder on the 8th day of storage at $5^{\circ}C$. From the sensory evaluation, texture, taste, and overall preference were not significantly different between the control and fruit group, but the color of 5% Cheonnyuncho noodle was significantly higher than that of control (p<0.05). In conclusion, the results of this study suggest that the addition of 1% and 3% Cheonnyuncho powder in combination with flour tended to improve antimicrobial effects during storage when compared to control.
