The feasibility of incorporating Hallabong powder (HP) as a value-added food ingredient into convenient food products was investigated using yanggaeng as a model system. HP was incorporated into yanggaeng at amounts of 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8% (w/w) based on total weight of cooked white beans and HP. pH level decreased while soluble solid content increased significantly with increasing levels of HP (P<0.05), whereas moisture content was not directly affected by level of HP incorporation. In terms of color, lightness decreased while redness and yellowness increased significantly (P<0.05) with increasing levels of HP. Hardness increased significantly when HP content exceeded 4% in the formulation (P<0.05). ABTS and DPPH radical scavenging activities were significantly elevated by HP addition, and they increased significantly as HP concentration increased in the formulation (P<0.05). Finally, consumer acceptance test indicated that the highest levels of HP incorporation (8%) had an adverse effect on general consumer preferences. In contrast, yanggaeng with moderate levels of HP (2%) is recommended based on its overall scores to take advantage of the antioxidant properties of HP without sacrificing consumer acceptability.

The pysicochemical and bacteriological properties of yogurts made by single or mixed cultures of L. bulgaricus FRI025 and S. thermophilus CHI were investigated. L. bulgaricus FRI025 which was isolated from raw milk was selected as starter culture among 22 strains of lactic culture by measuring viscosity, flavor, growth and acid production ability. The acid production and number of viable cell were increased by using L. bulgaricus FRI025 and S. thermophilus CHI together in ratio of apporximately 1:1. The pH, titratable acidity, viable cell number and viscosity of yogurt were 4.08, 1.14%, $2.5{\times}10^{10}/ml$ and 2100 cp after 9 hours incubation at $40^{\circ}C$, respectively. The pH and viable cell number were decreased on the other hand titratable acidity and viscosity were increased after 7 days of storage at $4^{\circ}C$. The changes of quality did not show significantly after storage. The selected starter was much higher than commercial yogurt starter in the acid production and growth of starter. The yogurt nanufactured with selected starter was better than with commercial yogurt in sensory evalution such as taste, texture, flavor and overall acceptability.

The effect of baking on the physicochemical and sensory properties was investigated using a model system of sponge cakes incorporated with pine leaf powder (PLP) as a value-added food ingredient. PLP was incorporated into cake batter at 5 levels (0, 2, 4, 6, and 8%, w/w) by adding an equivalent amount based on the weight of wheat flour. After appropriate mixing, sponge cakes were baked at $170^{\circ}C$ for 30 min in an oven. The baked cakes were cooled to room temperature for 1 h prior to all measurements. The pH, moisture content, specific volume, height, volume index, and symmetry index decreased significantly with the increase in PLP content (p<0.05). On the contrary, specific gravity of the batter and baking loss increased (p<0.05). The lightness of the cakes decreased, whereas redness increased significantly with the higher amount of PLP in the formulation (p<0.05). Hardness also increased significantly (p<0.05). Both total polyphenol content and DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl) radical scavenging activity increased significantly by the addition of PLP (p<0.05). The consumer acceptance test indicated that the addition of PLP up to 4% did not cause a significant unfavorable effect on the consumer acceptances in all attributes. The sponge cakes with 2-4% PLP would be recommended with respect to the overall acceptance score while taking advantage of the functional properties of PLP without sacrificing the consumer acceptability.

A new type of drinkable yoghurt was prepared to develop a functional yoghurt. Skim milk containing 0.4-1.0％(w/v) water extract of omija(Schizandra chinensis Baillon) was fermented by the mixed strains of Lactobacillus acidophilus and Streptococcus thermophilus. Quality characteristics of the drinkable yoghurts were evaluated in terms of compositions, keeping-quality(pH, titratable acidity, number of viable cells) and sensory properties. The drinkable yoghurts added with water extract of Schizandra chinensis were composed of 2.92-3.03％ protein, 9.98-10.23％ lactose, 0.81-1.08％ fat, 16.21-16.64％ total solid, and 14.57-15.17％ solid-not-fat. The L values(brightness) were significantly lower in the yoghurts containing water extract of Schizandra chinensis than that of the control which had no water extract of Schizandra chinensis, while the a values(redness) and b values(yellowness) were significantly higher than those of the control. The pH, titratable acidity and number of viable cells of the lactic acid bacteria of all yoghurts were not changed during the storage at 4$^{\circ}C$ for 15 days, while the pH and titratable acidity were remarkedly changed during the yoghurts stored at 20$^{\circ}C$ for 15 days. The drinkable yoghurts containing 0.4％(w/v) water extract of Schizandra chinensis added 15％(w/v) oligosaccharide, or 0.6％(w/v) water extract of Schizandra chinensis added 20％(w/v) oligosaccharide had the highest sensory score in taste and overall acceptability among the treatments. From the results, Schizandra chinensis was a useful natural additive with the bioactive effect by provision of a acceptable physicochemical and sensory properties in the drinkable yoghurt.

The effects of different extraction methods on quality of citron juices were investigated in terms of chemical composition and sensory evaluation. Extraction methods employed were press-filtration with 400 mesh sieve, centrifugation, and enzyme pretreatment using pectinase. Enzyme pretreatment method showed the highest yield of juice with 68%, while press-filtration method, the lowest yield of juice with 26.3%. The pH of the juices was relatively similar at 3.29～3.34. Filter-pressed juice showed the highest concentration of soluble solid at 6.0$^{\circ}$Brix, while the juice produced using centrifugation showed the lowest concentration at 4.5$^{\circ}$Brix. In all the juices, fructose was the main soluble sugar. Concentration of organic acid was the highest with the juice produced with centrifugation so that supplementation with higher amount with sugar was needed for overall acceptability.

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of genotype (slower-growing vs. fast-growing) and production system (access to outdoors vs. indoor) on the growth performance, carcass yield and meat quality (chemical composition, physicochemical and sensory properties) of chickens. The experiment was performed on 1,040 day-old hybrid male chickens of two genotypes. Slower-growing chickens (Hubbard JA957, certified) and fast-growing chickens (Hubbard F15) were fed identical diets until 65 days of age. Both genotypes (each represented by 520 birds) were divided into two subgroups and were raised in pens on litter with outdoor access or in indoor confinement without outdoor access (four replications per subgroup, each of 65 birds). Until day 21, the birds stayed in the indoor facility, in deep-litter pens. The birds could forage on pasture 12 h daily, commencing at three weeks of age. Stocking density was 0.13 $m^2$ floor space per bird in pens on litter, and 0.8 $m^2$ per bird in grassy yards. Compared with fast-growing, slower-growing chickens were significantly lighter (by 17%), had a lower breast and thigh muscle yield and a higher abdominal fat content, but they were characterized by higher survival rates at 65 days, a higher protein content and a lower fat content of breast meat. Outdoor access had no negative effects on the growth performance, muscle yield, the fatty acid profile and oxidative status of meat lipids. The meat of free-range chickens was darker in color, it had a higher protein content and a better water-holding capacity, but it was less juicy than the meat of birds raised indoors.

The goal of this study was to develop new functional pear wine using six Asian pears (Pyrus pyrifolia, Nakai), namely Wonhwang, Niitaka, Whangkeumbae, Whasan, Gamcheonbae and Chuwhangbae. To select optimal yeast and pear, we investigated the physicochemical properties of the pear wines from fermentation of musts of six pear cultivars at $25^{\circ}C$ for 7 days by several yeasts. $11.2%{\sim}12.4%$ of ethanol from musts of 'Wonhwang', 'Whangkeumbae' and 'Whasan' were produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae K-7 and 12.8% of ethanol was also produced from 'Niitaka' by commercial Saccharomyces cerevisiae C-2. 9.9% and 11.4% of ethanol were produced from musts of 'Gamcheonbae' and 'Chuwhangbae' by Saccharomyces cerevisiae KCTC 7904, respectively. Among several pear wines, Niitaka pear wine showed the best acceptability in the sensory evaluation, and Niitaka pear wine and Whangkeumbae pear wine showed 31.1% and 27.8% of antihypertensive angiotensin I-converting enzyme(ACE) inhibitory activity, respectively. However, the other functionalities were not detected or very low. Furthermore, Niitaka-strawberry mixed fermentation wine was showed the excellent acceptability and high antihypertensive ACE inhibitory activity of 64.9%.

This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between quality factors and palatability of modified Doenjang and traditional Doenjang. Fourteen types of Doenjang, including three modified Doenjang and 11 traditional Doenjang samples, were analyzed to evaluate their physicochemical and sensorial properties. There were differences in e-tongue, which indicates overall acceptability. Water contents, minerals, total sugar contents, salt contents, pH, titratable acidity, and free amino acids of Doenjang did not show significant differences. From the correlation and regression analysis, palatability was closely related to the e-tongue sensor such as $X_1$ (sourness), $X_3$ (saltiness), and $X_4$ (umami) to -0.772, -0.642, and 0.678, respectively. The regression equation for sensorial palatability (Y) was Y=$45.356-0.008X_1-0.010X_3$ with a coefficient of 0.882.

This study was conducted to investigate the quality characteristics of low-fat pork patties containing fat replacers. Pectin(PE) and potato starch(PO) were added as fat replacers and physicochemical properties of the patties were evaluated after oven-roasting or pan-frying. Uncooked and cooked pork patties formulated with the fat replacers were higher in moisture and ash content and lower in fat content than those of the control. The cooking yield and reduction in diameter of the patties were significantly improved by the addition of PE or PO and oven-roasting exhibited a higher cooking yield and lower reduction in diameter than pan-frying (p<0.05). Water holding capacity(WHC) and fat retention were highest in the patties formulated with PE, while the control had the lowest WHC when cooked by oven-roasting. The Hunter L (lightness) values were not different among the patties but the Hunter a (redness) and b (yellowness) values of the low fat pork patties were higher than those of the control and oven-roasting produced higher redness values than pan frying. Hardness and brittleness were lowest in the patties with PE, while cohesiveness and springiness showed no difference among the patties (p<0.05). The sensory analysis results showed that the use of PE or PO improved the overall acceptability of the low-fat pork patties. After 30 days of storage at $-20^{\circ}C$, pH and cooking yield decreased slightly, while hardness increased in all the patties.

This study aimed at the optimization and development of rice snack by response surface methodology (RSM). The effect of rice soaking time and additional ratio of soybean milk on physicochemical properties and sensory evaluation of dried rice flour for non-fried snack was studied. After soaking for 0 to 12 days, Baekjinju rice was milled and then air-dried. A quadratic model was selected for weight, volume, hardness, taste and appearance. Two-factor interaction model was selected for expansibility, color and overall preference. A linear model was selected for yellowness and flavor. Weight, hardness and appearance were increased and decreased thereafter as rice soaking time increased, but the volume was reversed. Expansibility, color, taste and flavor were decreased as rice soaking time increased, but yellowness was reversed. Weight and overall preference decreased as additional ratio of soybean milk increased, but volume, expansibility and yellowness were reversed. Hardness, taste and appearance were increased after initial decrease as additional ratio of soybean milk increased, color and flavor were not changed by additional ratio of soybean milk. The optimum conditions of each factor were set to where the rice soaking time and additional ratio of soybean milk were at their minimum. Weight, volume, expansibility, yellowness, hardness, color, taste, flavor, appearance and overall preference were established at maximum level where the objective of the optimum was in level. Our data indicated the statistically predicted values of the highest desirability was 1.24 day of rice soaking time and 15.80% of additional ratio of soybean milk.
