To increase the nutritional and economic value of commercial peanut yogurt, a peanut yogurt was prepared by 12% skim milk added defatted peanut powder(DPP). The proximate compositions of DPP were moisture 2.3%, crude protein 31.39%, crude lipid 38.84, ash 2.89% and carbohydrate 24.58, respectively. The yogurt product were evaluated for acid production(pH, titratable acidity), number of viable cell, viscosity, color, quality-keeping property and sensory property. By addition of 5% and 10% DPP, the titratable acidity of yogurt was higher than that of yogurt not added DPP. The propagation of lactic acid bacteria was stimulated by adding 5% DPP, and the number of viable cells were about 8.9 log cfu/ml. On the other hand, the number of viable cells in control were 8.3 log cfu/ml. Viscosity of yogurt made from adding 5% and 10% DPP was higher than that of yogurt with only skim milk. When yogurt added with DPP was kept for 15 days at 5$^{\circ}C$ its quality-keeping was relatively good. As the DPP increased, L value(lightness) decreased and a value(redness) increased obviously but the b value(yellowness) of 5% peanut yogurt increased and 10% and 15% again decreased. The overall sensory scores of yogurts added with DPP showed lower than that of yogurt with only skim milk.

The chemical components of four muskmelons (Thankyou, Beauty, Picnic, and Symphony), according to the cultivars, were investigated during storage at $7^{\circ}C$ for 28 days. After the storage period, the Picnic cultivar indicated a weight decrease of up to 4.70% whereas the Symphony cultivar showed the best weight maintenance during storage (1.02%). The Thankyou and Symphony cultivars had higher sugar content and acidity levels than the Beauty and Picnic cultivars during storage. While the Symphony and Beauty cultivars showed high hardness at the start of their storage, their hardness decreased much during storage while the Thankyou and Picnic cultivars showed little change in hardness during storage. Further, the Thankyou cultivar not only maintained its unique muskmelon yellow color but also showed lower microorganism growth than the other cultivars. The stem water loss seen in this cultivar, however, tends to be the first thing seen by the consumers and may thus determine its merchantable quality. In addition, as the Thankyou cultivar showed the least quality change during storage, it will be useful for the development of a technology for minimizing the moisture content of a muskmelon's stem.

In this study, Bokbunja (Rubus coreanus), which has various medical applications and excellent functionality, was used together with Teriyaki sauce to compare and analyze the effect of different amounts of Bokbunja (0, 3, 6, 9, 12%) on the physico-chemical quality of a Teriyaki sauce. The sensual quality of Bokbunja Teriyaki sauce and a roasted eel spread with Bokbunja Teriyaki sauce was analyzed to detemine the merchandising potential of this sauce. The moisture content of the Teriyaki sauce decreased as the amount of added Bokbunja increased, and the 3% group showed the highest decrease, which was 73.1%. As the amount of added Bokbunja increased the pH was showen to decreased, and the sweetness of the Teriyaki sauce increased. The sauce containing 12% Bokbunja had the highest increase of $36.9^{\circ}Brix$. The amount reducing sugar was significantly different between each sample. In terms of the L (lightness) value, highter amounts of added Bokbunja resulted in an increase in the L (lightness) of the sauce and significant differences were obsered between sample groups. In regards to the texture, no significant changes were shown for hardness even though the amount of Bokbunja added was different. There was a significant difference between samples for gumminess, a highter concentration of Bokbunja resulted in a higher gumminess of the sauce. As for adhesiveness, there was a significant difference between samples; as more Bokbunja was added, the sauce became betwkier. In regards to the preference of roasted eel containing this sauce, the 6% Bokbunja sauce was the most preferred with a score 7.98 points, and as for flavor, there was significant difference between sauces containing 3, 6 and 9% Bokbunja. In addition there wasn't any significant difference between each sample for sweetness. For softness, the 6% Bokbunja sauce was the most preferred with a score of 9.36 points. The overall-acceptability was in this order: 6>9>3>0>12%, Thus, from the physico-chemical and sensual perspective, the 6% Bokbunja sauce is highly recommended for potential commercial use. In conclusion, we examined the effect of combining Bokbunja, which has medicinal applications and excellent functionality, with Teriyaki sauce and the results of this study indicate that Bokbunja combined Teriyaki sauce produce a high quality food that holds promise for commercialization.

This study was performed to provide information for improving the quality characteristics of tangerine peel Soksungjang. Tangerine peel Soksungjangs were prepared with 10% tangerine peel powder by addition of different koji such as Rhizopus oligosporus (RS, RTS) and Aspergillus oryzae (AS, ATS). As a result, the moisture content was not changed and crude protein content decreased during fermentation in all samples. The pH of RS (Soksungjang manufactured with Rhizopus oligosporus koji) and RTS (Soksungjang manufactured with Rhizopus oligosporus koji and 10% tangerine peel powder) was not changed, whereas pH of AS (Soksungjang manufactured with Aspergillus oryzae) and ATS (Soksungjang manufactured with Aspergillus oryzae koji and 10% tangerine peel powder) decreased rapidly after 10 days of fermentation. The acidity values of all the samples increased during fermentation. The major free sugars were glucose, fructose, and maltose; while, the major organic acids were citric acid, succinic acid, acetic acid, and lactic acid in all the samples. The amino nitrogen content and protease activity were highest in the AS and ATS. Conversely, the reducing sugar content and ${\alpha}$-amylase activity were highest in the RS and RTS. The major free amino acids in all samples were glutamic acid, lysine, leucine, and arginine. Sixty kinds of volatile flavor compounds were identified from all samples; the majority of which were 21 alcohols, 14 hydrocarbons, 5 esters, and others identifies as acids, ketones, and aldehydes.

This study investigated the quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of muffins prepared with different amounts (0%, 5%, 10%, and 15%) of aronia powder. The moisture content was higher in the groups that contained aronia powder than in the control muffin. The specific volume of the muffins was lowest in the group with 15% aronia powder added. The lightness and yellowness values decreased, while the redness values increased with increasing amounts of the aronia powder. The hardness of the control group was lower than that of the 10% and 15% treatment groups. The consumer acceptance test revealed no significant differences in the taste and texture of the muffin samples, but the overall acceptability scores were lowest for the muffins with 15% aronia powder added. The substitution of wheat flour for the aronia powder yielded muffins with a higher polyphenol content and total flavonoid content. The antioxidant activity measured via the DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity, metal chelating effect, and reducing power increased as the concentration of the aronia powder increased. The results showed that up to 10% aronia powder can be incorporated into muffins to meet the sensory quality and functional needs of consumers.

Effects of persimmon peel powder on physico-chemical properties in 60 pigs was investigated. The pigs were randomly assigned to one of the four dietary treatments: 1) Control (commercial feed) 2) T1 (commercial feed supplemented with 1% persimmon peel powder) 3) T2 (commercial feed supplemented with 3% persimmon peel powder) 4) T3 (commercial feed supplemented with 5% persimmon peel powder). In proximate composition, moisture of pork from treatment groups were decreased by addition level increased than that of control but crude fat was increased (p<0.05). Crude protein and crude ash was no significantly difference. The total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol and triglyceride of treatment groups was higher than that of control.. LDL-cholesterol of control was higher than that of treatment groups. The WHC (water holding capacity) of control was higher than treatment groups and shear value was higher in treatments group (p<0.05). pH was not significantly different between control and treatment groups. The hardness, juiciness and flavor of sensory evaluation were improved by treatments, especially in T3 (p<0.05). The meat color of treatment group showed whiter and redder than that of control owing to higher L/sup */, a/sup */ and b/sup */ value. In fatty acids, stearic acid contents of treatment groups were higher than that of control. The unsaturated fatty acid/saturated fatty acid ratio of the control, T1 T2 and T3 were 1.78, 1.71. 1.69 and 1.66, respectively and control had higher than the treatment groups. The hardness, juiciness and flavor of sensory evaluation were improved by treatments, especially in T3 (p<0.05).
