For the development of Moru wine with enhanced sensory qualities, Moru (Vitis amurensis) wines were fermented with pine needles from Pinus densiflora Siebold et Zuccarini to make Moru-pine wine or medicinal herbs from Astragali Radix and Viscum album to make Moru-herb wine. Moru without pine needles or medicinal herbs was included as a control. Pine needles and Astragali Radix/Viscum album delayed the fermentation of Moru wine, but after 40 days of fermentation and aging, final ethanol contents, pH, acidity, and the sugar/organic acid content in these kinds of Moru wines had no differences. The final ethanol level and acidity of Moru wines were 11.5~12.9% and 1.1~1.2%, respectively, but any sugars (glucose, fructose and sucrose) were not detected in all Moru wines. These results are consistent with the general characteristics of Moru wines, which have a high acidity and low sugar contents. Relatively low browness and antocyanins were detected in Moru-herb wine decreasing its chromaticity in a sensory test. Overall, the supplements of Astragali Radix/Viscum album reduced the color of normal Moru wine, which might be applied toward the development of conventional Moru wines.

The constituents of sugar, enzyme activity and number of pollens in standard honey (gathered from my own honey comb.) and commercial ones collected from local markets) were determined to know the difference between above two kinds of honey. The results obtained were as follows. 1. The constitution of saccharides in commercial honey was higher at 1% than the standard one. The average content showed 45% of fructose,41% of glucose, 3% of dextrin and 2% of sucrose. 2. Pollen contained in honey were mainly composed of oval and globe shape. The nunlber of pollen contained in standard honey was five times more than that in commercial ones .3. ${\alpha}-amylase$, ${\beta}-amylase$ and protease activity of standard honey were greated 5,2,2 times respectively comparing with that of commercial one, and acid protease activity with each sample was higher than the neutral.

This study was designed to determine the best cultivar of kohlrabi for making pickles among KM-1 (Worldcol), KM-2 (Bejo), KM-3 (Takii), and KM-4 (Monsanto) cultivars. The initial pH of pickles was different in all cultivars; however, they all had a pH in the range of 3.81~3.86 after 28 days of storage. The pickles made from KM-4 had the lowest acidity, while there was no significant difference in acidity among the KM-1, KM-2, and KM-3 pickles. The salinity of all kohlrabi pickles was consistent during the storage period. The changes of color values were accelerated in the following order: KM-4>KM-1>KM-2>KM-3. Though kohlrabi pickles were non-fermented, the change in reducing sugar contents was similar to that of a fermented pickle. The highest value of reducing sugar content was found in pickles made with KM-4. In all cases, the firmness of the pickle decreased as time of storage increased. On the initial day, KM-4 pickle showed the highest firmness with 807.4 g. KM-4 also showed the highest firmness on the 28th day of storage with 602.3 g. In sensory evaluation, the KM-4 pickle exhibited the highest texture (hardness) among the pickles. The pickle made with the KM-4 cultivar showed relatively higher firmness of texture than other cultivars, suggesting that KM-4 could be utilized in other kinds of processed foods, in addition to being pickled.

The three kinds of Kochujang were prepared with liquid koji equivalent to 30%, 50% and 70% of brewing water and the contents of free amino acids and free sugars during aging at $25^{\circ}C$ for 3 months were compared with those of the control group which was made from solid koji. All tested Kochujang were higher in glutamic acid, lysine and aspartic acid while lower in methionine, histidine and tryptophan. The content of total free amino acids was high in the order of control group, 70%, 50%, and 30% liquid koji group. Fructose and rhamnose were found in all groups, but glucose in only the control group and 70% liquid koji group. Fructose content was the highest of the free sugars and total free sugar content was higher in the control group and 70% liquid koji group than other groups.

A pectic substance from citron peel was extracted with different methods to establish the optimum extraction conditions. The extraction yields of pectin with HCl, citrate and tartrate (concentration : 0.1 N, extraction ratio : 1 : 20) were 17.9%, 15.6% and 11.4%, respectively. Six times of 65% ethanol washing step was followed after first ethanol precipitation of acid extract for pure pectin. The degree of esterification (DE) of pectins was in the range of 43.0~47.6% and intrinsic viscosity was in the range of 0.94~2.63 (η$_{sp}$ /C (dL/g)). The sugar compositions such as rhamnose, xylose, glucuronic acid, galacturonic acid, galactose and glucose were little different in three kinds of pectins except for the content of arabinose.

This study is conducted to investigate the quality characteristics of kimchi with added Allium hookeri root (AHR) during a 56-day fermentation process at $4^{\circ}C$. AHR was added to salted cabbage at concentrations of 0, 5, 10, and 20% (w/w). The quality characteristics of the kimchi with added AHR were determined by measuring pH, acidity, salinity, reducing sugar, microbial amounts, and sensory evaluation. AHR had a higher level of crude lipid and potassium than other kinds within the Allium family. All kimchi with added AHR gradually decreased in the pH level compared to Baechu kimchi until 2 weeks, and kept a higher level of pH than Baechu kimchi until 8 weeks. Salinity showed a range of 1.87~2.43% over 8 weeks. The reducing sugar content showed no difference between all kimchi. In sensory evaluations, overall acceptance, taste and texture were highest in kimchi with added 10% AHR.

The ground persimmon puree was treated with two kinds of commercial polysaccharide hydrolyzing enzymes (Viscozyme and Celluclast) in order to study their effects on the extraction yield, viscosity, color, titratable acidity and sugars. Hydrolysis with Viscozyme which has enzymatic activity of arabinase, cellulase, xylanase, hemicellulase and ${\beta}-glucanase$ significantly increased the extraction yield, L-value and reducing sugar and decreased in viscosity by treatment for 10 min at $50^{\circ}C$. The extraction yield of the juice was increased from 42.7% to 80% by Viscozyme while the Celluclast to 73.3%. On the other hand, the sensory properties of persimmon-like flavor, scarlet and orange color were greatly improved for the juice hydrolyzed with Viscozyme for 60 min.

Increasing the rice consumption, seven kinds of Nurungji which served as a home meal replacer and snack were developed with some functional materials were added, and their physiochemical characteristics were analyzed. The water binding capacity was the highest in Nurungji with black sesame seed (264.13%), and the hardness was the lowest as 0.36 N in Nurungji with Tenebrio molitor. The reducing sugar content was the highest in Nurungji with sweet pumpkin (1.47%) when being soaked in water for 30 minutes. As a result of measuring 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl free radical scavenging activity of the tested Nurungji preparations, Nurungji with sweet pumpkin and beet showed the high scavenging activity against free radicals. As a result of sensory evaluation, overall acceptability was the highest in Nurungji with black sesame seeds (4.3). Physicochemical characterization and sensory evaluation of Nurongji added with various materials confirmed that they could be applied to various food products.

This paper reports a study on physical properties of the traditional adhesives for developing natural adhesives. This is to certify that the superiority of tradition through systematic surveys and experiments as well. We used three kinds of starches differing fermentation time(7 years, 4 years 8 months, and 2 years 8 months) which are fermented from wheat flour starches. The amylose contents, total sugar contents, crystallinity, particle size and shape, viscosity, pH, and adhesive strength were examined. The effect of fermentation time on physical properties of fermented wheat flour were studied. It was found that fermentation time effect various physical properties such as total sugar contents, amylose contents, crystallinity, viscosity, and so on.
