This study was performed to investigate the quality characteristics of Yanggeng added wild grape (Vitis amurensis) juice. The yanggeng was prepared with pesticide-free wild grape juice, agar, sugar and salt. The yanggeng was made with various levels (0, 50, 100, 150, 200 g of wild grape juice in yanggeng, respectively) based on the total weight of water. It was estimated on Hunter's color value, texture profile analysis, and sensory characteristics of the Yanggeng. As the content of wild grape juice increased, The lightness (L) and yellowness (b) decreased and redness (a) increased. In texture profile analysis, hardness was increased; however, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness decreased with increasing levels of wild grape juice. The results of the sensory evaluation indicated that the Yanggeng containing the 150 g level of wild grape juice showed the highest preference scores in terms of color, taste, texture, flavor and overall acceptance. These results show that the yanggeng containing 150 g of wild grape juice is the better.

The present study investigated the influence of different volumes of red hot pepper juice on the quality characteristics of fresh Pasta noodle. Supplementation with 0% (control), 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, or 10% red hot pepper juice produced similar gelatinization characteristics of peak viscosity, temperature at peak viscosity, hot paste viscosity and numerical value of breakdown. However, increasing concentrations of red hot pepper juice produced progressively and significantly low cold paste viscosity and setback. The chromaticity of wet and cooked noodles was significantly lower in L value and significantly higher in +a and +b values with increasing volumes of red hot pepper juice. The texture of fresh noodles displayed no significant differences in hardness, adhesiveness and chewiness. The springiness and cohesiveness were lower and higher with the increase of added red hot pepper juice, respectively, but the differences just attained significance. For cooked noodles, adhesiveness, springiness, cohesiveness and chewiness tended to be higher with increasing volumes of red hot pepper juice, but again the differences just attained significance. Cooking characteristics of weight, volume, moisture absorptive power and turbidity decreased with increasing volumes of red hot pepper juice. Sensory characteristics of acceptability including appearance, color, flavor, taste, texture and overall-acceptability improved with increasing red hot pepper juice volume, in particular with 5% and 7.5%. Amylograph characteristics for initial paste temperature positively correlated with the texture characteristics for chewiness (p<0.05). Negatively correlated amylograph parameters included texture for springiness with for peak viscosity (p<0.01), texture for adhesiveness with hot paste viscosity (p<0.01) and breakdown with texture for adhesiveness, cohesiveness and chewiness (p<0.05).

Antioxidants present in fruits and vegetables have a potential to reduce disease risk, and increase the shelf life of food products by reducing lipid oxidation. The effect of marination with antioxidants-rich fruit juices on quality characteristics of vacuum-packed chicken wings were examined during frozen storage. Chicken wings were mixed separately with marinades containing pineapple juice, June plum juice, and mango juice and kept for 12 h and 24 h. Three best marination conditions were selected based on a sensory evaluation. Antioxidant activity and total phenolic content of fruit juices, and marinade uptake, and marinade loss of marinated chicken wings were determined. In addition, vacuum packed marinated chicken wings were tested for pH, water holding capacity (WHC), 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) value and antioxidant activity over a 4-wk frozen storage. The best sensory properties were reported from chicken wings marinated with pineapple juice for 24 h, mango juice for 24 h, and June plum juice for 12 h (p<0.05) compared to other marinade-time combinations. Mango juice showed the highest antioxidant activity (92.2%) and total phenolic content (38.45 ㎍/mL; p<0.05) compared to other fruit juices. The pH and WHC of vacuumpacked chicken wings were slightly decreased over the frozen storage (p<0.05). Moreover, chicken wings marinated with mango juice had the lowest TBARS values and the highest 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate free radical scavenging activity. In conclusion, mango juice was selected among tested as the most effective marinade for enhancing the oxidative stability of lipid while maintaining the other meat quality traits of vacuum-packed chicken wings.

We investigated the physicochemical quality characteristics of apple juice upon sterilization using hot water, and under various storage conditions. None of sugar content, acidity, or pH differed significantly among various sterilization conditions but chromaticity was considerably reduced in sterilized juice compared with control material. The chromaticity of non-sterilized juice decreased significantly after sterilization compared with material supplemented with vitamin C (0.1%, w/v). Fungi, yeast, and aerobic bacteria were detected in juice sterilized at $65^{\circ}C$ for 10 or 20 min, but no microorganisms were observed in juice sterilized by other procedures. Vitamin C content affected sterilization temperature to a greater extent than sterilization time. When juice was stored at $4^{\circ}C$ or $37^{\circ}C$ for 3 weeks after application of different sterilization conditions, almost no change in acidity, sugar content, or pH was observed, regardless of sterilization mode or storage period. However, chromaticity decreased with longer storage. Vitamin C levels were reduced by higher sterilization temperatures. However, longer storage periods had the greatest effect on reduction of vitamin C levels, which tended toward lower values regardless of differences in sterilization and storage conditions. In sensory evaluation tests, all of taste, color, and overall preference were highest for juice sterilized at $75^{\circ}C$ for 20 min. The ASC value was low at a storage temperature of $4^{\circ}C$ and at high sterilization temperatures, and a long storage period was associated with a greater ASC value. Thus, the quality of apple juice was excellent when juice was hot water-sterilized, with additional vitamin C, at $75^{\circ}C$ for 20 min, followed by storage at $4^{\circ}C$.

The objective of this study is to investigate the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of yanggaeng prepared with different amounts of aronia juice. Aronia juice was incorporated into yanggaeng at different levels (containing 50, 100, and 150 g of aronia juice in AJ 50, AJ 100, and AJ 150, respectively) based on the total weight of water. Total acidity and sugar contents showed a significant increase, however, pH showed a decrease with increasing levels of aronia juice. Hardness also showed an increase with increasing levels of aronia juice. Regarding texture profile analysis, hardness, springiness, and chewiness of yanggaeng were increased, however, cohesiveness was similar compared to the control and aronia juice added treatments. In chromaticity determination, L and b values showed a decrease, however, a value increased with increasing levels of aronia juice. The total polyphenols, flavonoids, and anthocyanin contents were increased proportionally with increasing levels of aronia juice. Antioxidant activity measured by DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities were significantly higher than those of control and increased proportionally according to the concentration of aronia juice. The sensory evaluation indicated that AJ 100 showed the best preference in color, taste, texture, flavor, and overall acceptance. These results suggest that aronia juice may be a useful ingredient in yanggaeng for improvement of quality and antioxidant potential.

The physiochemical property, nutrient composition, and functionality of apple juice sterilized at a low temperature (LT, $70^{\circ}C$, 30 min) or a high temperature (HT, $100^{\circ}C$, 20 min) were analyzed. The pH of the apple juice that was sterilized at LT (pH 4.72) was higher than that of the apple juice that was sterilized at HT (pH 4.57), and the acidity of the apple juice that was sterilized at HT (8.90%) was higher than that of the other sample. The sugar content of the two apple juice samples was 15 $^{\circ}Brix$, and the apple juice samples had high potassium, malic acid, and glutamic acid contents. The total polyphenol contents of the apple juice samples that were sterilized at LT and HT were 27.39 mg/100 mL and 23.24 mg/100 mL, respectively. The apple juice that was sterilized at LT had a significantly stronger DPPH radical scavenging activity than the apple juice that was sterilized at HT ($p$ <0.01), and the apple juice that was sterilized at LT had a lower hydroxyl radical scavenging activity level than the other apple juice. Finally, the apple juice that was sterilized at LT showed significantly stronger activities that inhibit enzyme-related oxidation than the apple juice that was sterilized at HT ($p$ <0.05).

Citrus juice was treated with supercritical carbon dioxide $(SC-CO_{2})$ and the effect of temperature and pressure on quality of citrus juice was determined. Pectinesterase (PE) was inactivated by $(SC-CO_{2})$ below temperatures necessary for thermal inactivation. There was no significant change in the pH, Brix and total acidity of citrus juice before and after $(SC-CO_{2})$ treatment, but brightness was improved. More ascorbic acid was retained during $(SC-CO_{2})$ treatment of citrus juice than thermal treatment $(93^{\circ}C/0.66\;min)$.During storage of supercritically treated citrus juice at $4^{\circ}C$, activity of PE was reversible. Sensory evaluation showed that color, flavor, taste and overall acceptance of $(SC-CO_{2})$ treated juice were not significantly different from untreated juice. This method offers potentially beneficial processing avenues for citrus juice and other juices, especially in the area of minimally processed products.

A combined treatment of high hydrostatic pressure and carbonation was used to inactivate pectinesterase (PE) and sterilize microorganisms in Valencia orange juice without major changes in its nutritive components. Quality characteristics of Valencia orange juice, such as microorganisms, PE activity, vitamin C content and color, were evaluated after it was treated with pressure, carbonation-and-pressure, and heat. Quality changes during storage at $4^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$ after the treatments were also investigated. Pressurized orange juice (pressurized at 600 MPa for 10 min at $20^{\circ}C$) showed 7.0% residual PE activity, while the carbonated-and-pressurized orange juice (207 $kPa-CO_2$ gas pressure, pressurized at 600 MPa for 10 min at $20^{\circ}C$) showed 0%. Pressurization at 400 MPa or higher decreased the population of microorganisms in the orange juice to less than 10 CFU/mL. Carbonated-and-pressurized orange juice showed slight decrease in vitamin C content when stored at both $4^{\circ}C\;and\;30^{\circ}C$. While heat-treated ($90^{\circ}C$ for 60 sec) orange juice showed 75% decrease in vitamin C content when stored at $30^{\circ}C$. L value (lightness) and b value (yellowness) of carbonated-and-pressurized orange juice were higher than those of heat-treated orange juice when they were stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for 30 days.

This study investigated the effects of different amounts of aronia juice (0, 4, 8, 12, 16, and 20%) on astringency perception and quality characteristics of cup jelly. With increasing aronia juice content, soluble solid content, redness, yellowness, total acidity, antioxidant components, and antioxidant activities increased, whereas lightness, pH, and gel strength decreased. Regarding sensory evaluation, with 12% or more added aronia juice, purpleness and sourness increased, whereas hardness and cohesiveness decreased in the jelly samples. Cup jelly with 16% aronia juice content had the highest overall acceptability score. These results indicate that aronia can be used as a good source of anthocyanins when developing functional jelly products.
