The purpose of this paper is to verify improvement of the basic quality of food resources and make the pork legs as the more advanced food products after taking special processing steps with the mixture of traditional medical herbs and hot water extracted coffee meal. The pH level of the pettitoes(Jokbal) showed the highest rate among the control group but it showed no statistical differences in the moisture content between the control and the pettitoes(Jokbal) processed with coffee waste extract as an additional component. In addition, the levels of crude fat and crude ash showed slight increases as the addition of the amount increase. In case of the proteins, however, tendency of slight was decreased but it was not significantly difference as the amount increases. The sodium rate in the pettitoes(Jokbal) was higher in the additional group than in the control group. Texture analysis showed a tendency of wide decrease in the hardness and chewiness depending on amount of the added coffee waste extract. On the other hand, as for the cohesiveness and springiness, there was no significant difference with the control group. In case of the lightness value, as the amount of added coffee waste extract is increased from 10% to 20% and 30%, the 'L' value was reduced significantly compared to that of the control. And the 'a' value was not significantly different compared to the coffee waste extract foil impregnated furniture control. But the 'b' values were significantly increased in accordance with the result of increasing the amount of control is at the lowest level. The result may come from the influence of coffee waste extract, which affects the color of the pettitoes(Jokbal). According to the sensory evaluation, the pork part with 10% of coffee waste extract showed the highest score in looking, chewiness, smell and preference, resulting in the improvement in quality of the pettitoes(Jokbal).

The properties and bactericidal activities of strongly acidic electrolyzed water (SEW) against food-borne pathogenic bacteria, vegetables and kitchen apparatuses were investigated. The available chlorine concentration, pH and oxidation reduction potential (ORP) of SEW were $35{\pm}1.2\;ppm$, $2.3{\pm}0.2$, and $1,140{\pm}20.4\;mV$, respectively. Five strains of food-borne bacteria with initial cell number of 7.00 log CFU/mL were not detected except Bacillus cereus after treatment with SEW for 60 sec. The numbers of Bacillus cereus were reduced to 2.08{\pm}1.00 log CFU/mL at the same condition. In vegetables, SEW treatment after washing strongly in alkalic electrolyzed water (AEW) showed better bactericidal effects than SEW only. The viable cell on stainless steel bowl ($3.86{\pm}2.49\;\log\;CFU/100\;cm^2$) and cup for water ($2.40{\pm}1.80\;\log\;CFU/100\;cm^2$) were not detected by SEW treatment (35 ppm of available chlorine concentration) for 30 sec, but survival of more than 1.00 log CFU/$100\;cm^2$ of viable cell was shown by washing of sodium hypochlorite solution at the same condition. On the other hand, the coliform group bacteria ($5.08{\pm}4.00\;CFU/100\;cm^2$) were detected on rubber globe only, and more than 2.00 log CFU/$100\;cm^2$ of viable cell and coliform group bacteria on it survived, though it was washed with flowing SEW for 30 sec.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of unripened cheese supplements on lipid metabolism and antioxidant status in hypercholesterolemic SD rats. Rats were induced to have hypercholesterolemia by feeding them high cholesterol diet (0.5% cholesterol and 0.2% sodium cholate) for 4 weeks and then divided into 2 groups. One group was fed a high cholesterol diet with 5% unripened cheese (URC) daily for 6 weeks, and the other one was fed a high cholesterol diet without 5% unripened cheese (URC) daily for 6 weeks. Significantly-increased plasma total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), and AST activity because of the high-cholesterol diet were reduced 18.8%, 40.5%, and 33%, respectively, by URC supplementation. Also, URC lowered hepatic total lipids, TCs, and TGs, whereas fecal lipid profiles were not changed by URC. The supplementation of URC resulted in an increase of plasma retinol and ${\alpha}$-tocopherol by 40.5% and 39.2% and leukoytic DNA resistance to oxidative stress by 52.3% compared to hypercholesterolemic control. These results suggest that unripened cheese supplements could exert significant health benefits to those with hypercholesterolemia through ameliorating lipid profiles and antioxidant effects.
