This study was investigated the effect of aging at low temperature of seasoned pork with Korean traditional sauces. The samples, pork loins were cut by the shape of cube ($5{\times}15{\times}5\;cm$) and porks were seasoned with Korean tradition sauce such as soy sauce base (T1), red pepper sauce base (T2), and soybean sauce base (T3) in the same proportion of meat seasonings, respectively. The seasoned samples were stored, at $1{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ during 28 days. Surface meat color of seasoned pork was affected by the kind of sauces. Lightness of seasoned pork with soy sauce was decreased with increased in periods while red pepper sauce made it more red and soybean sauce produced a light seasoned pork, Lightness of inner meat color of seasoned pork was decreased with increased aging periods, and seasoned pork with soy sauce was lower compared to other treatments. TBARS of seasoned pork with soy sauce was lower compared to other treatments, and increased TBARS in all treatments with aging period. Total plate counts were increased with aging period, and those of seasoned pork with soy sauce were lower compared to other treatments. The microbial counts of Escherichia coli levels in all treatments was higher at the first day of aging periods. However Escherichia coli levels were decreased with increasing the aging period. Lactobacilli spp. of seasoned pork with soy sauce was not increased during aging periods, whereas other treatments were increased with aging period increased.

The aim of this study was to provide nutrition information to consumers by analyzing crude fat, saturated and trans fatty acids in commercial retort foods (n=70). The following sauce products of curries (n=21) and black-bean-sauces (n=16), other sauces (n=17) and instant cooking foods (n=16) were collected. Crude fat contents were quantified with the Rose-Gottlieb method using acid digestion. While saturated and trans fatty acids were examined by gas chromatography with a flame ionization detector (FID). Crude fat, saturated and trans fatty acid content ranges were $0.47{\pm}0.42{\sim}12.80{\pm}0.07g/100g$, $0.24{\pm}0.02{\sim}17.41{\pm}0.41g/100g$, $0.00{\pm}0.00{\sim}0.46{\pm}0.05g/100g$, respectively. Maximum recovery of analysis values was crude fat (119.7%), saturated fat (119%) and trans fatty acid (90%) compared the actual amounts based on the reference value indicated on the nutrition label. The analyzed samples were found to be compliant with nutrition label standard, because the contents of crude fat, saturated fatty acid, trans fatty acid were less than 120% of the reference value indicated on the nutrition label in retort foods. Therefore, the nutrition information on retort foods available to consumers was found to be trustworthy.

This study was conducted to investigate physico-chemical changes of pork prepared by Korean traditional 3 types seasoning such as soybean sauce(Tl); garlic sauce(T2); red pepper sauce(T3). The seasoned samples were aged at 0 ${\pm}$ $1^{\circ}C$ for 30 days. The results obtained were as follows; Salinity(%) and saccharinity(%) of sauce were significantly decreased(P<0.05) among the all treatments during aging periods, whereas fermented meats were significantly increased(P<0.05). pH of sauce and fermented meat were tended to increased as aging period. Water-Holding Capacity(WHC) and shear force of fermented meat increased(P<0.05) among the all treatments at 20 days of storage, and decreased after that period. In color, $L^* and b^* value of T3 were lower, while a^*$ value was higher than other treatments during aging period. Volatile Basic Nitrogen(YBN) value of all treatments were increased(P<0.05) after 20 days of storage. YBN value of T3 was significantly higher(P<0.05) compared with other treatments. Thiobarbituric Acid Reactive Substances(TBARS) was rapidly increased until 10 days of storage and somewhat decreased up to 20 days after 10 days in all treatments, it was re-increased after 20th days. T3 showed the highest TBARS among the all treatment groups. Total bacterial and Lactobacilli spp. were significantly increased(P<0.05) in all treatments at 10 days of storage and decreased after that period, however it tended to increased at 30 days of storage. In sensory evaluation, overall acceptability in all treatments were increased after 20 days of storage compared to initial storage and it score was similar thereafter.

Objectives: This study was performed to evaluate the consumer education program for reducing sodium intake based on social cognitive theory (SCT) and investigate consumer perceptions of environmental, cognitive and behavioral factors. Methods: Consumers (n=4,439) were recruited nationwide in Korea to participate in a nutrition education program for reducing sodium intake which was targeted on senior housewives (SH), parents (P), and office workers (OW). Questions regarding main factors of SCT were asked both before and after the education program. Results: SH and P recognized external social efforts and information to reduce sodium including nutrition labeling more than OW. The main barriers to practice reducing sodium intake were limited choice of low sodium food and menu, interference with social relationship when dining with others, and limited information, knowledge and skills. SH had lower barriers to practice reducing sodium intake and OW perceived 'preference to soup or stew' and 'preference to Kimchi, salted fish and fermented sauces' as barriers more than other groups at the baseline. Less than 50% of participants knew the relationship between sodium and salt, sodium in nutrition labeling, and recommended sodium intake. In addition, OW had little knowledge for capability to reduce sodium intake and lower self-efficacy to practice compared with SH and P. After education, positive outcome expectations such as lowering blood pressure, prevention of cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis were increased and barriers to practice reducing sodium intake were decreased in all groups (p < 0.05). The knowledge for behavioral capability and self-efficacy to reduce sodium intake were also improved but OW had still lower scores compared with other groups. Conclusions: These results suggested that nutrition education programs could be an effective tool to impact general population by facilitating awareness and increased capability to reduce sodium intake.

The study showed test results of Teriyaki sauce produced by apple concentrate instead of sugar in order to reduce the sugar content. We created four batches of soy sauce for testing. The Control batch was normal soy sauce. S1, S2, S3, and S4 were sauces made with different amounts of apple concentrate. The test results for the moisture contents, color value, sugar content, salinity, viscosity, pH and sensory evaluation (QDA, acceptance test) of all the types of sauce are as follows. The moisture contents of the Control was 50.80%, and for S4 was 35.14%. In chromaticity results, the L value of the Control was 10.85 which was the highest compared to samples which were in the range of 8.35~8.55. The value of a and b was highest in S4 and was lowest in Control. The sugar content was 53.53 $^{\circ}Brix$ in the Control, and 43.73 $^{\circ}Brix$ in S1. S1 showed 6.77% salinity, and S4 showed 5.37% salinity. The viscosity of S4 was highest at 60.33 cp, and Control showed the highest pH value of 4.82. The QDA of S4 showed the most intense brown color, which was 5.36. For gloss and soy sauce scent, no significant difference was found between the samples. Control showed a mild apple scent which was 1.45, and S1 showed the saltiest flavor which was 5.18. The sweet flavor for Control was 4.64, and S3 showed the strongest aftertaste from the test. No significant difference of appearance and acceptance was found between samples. S2 showed a scent of 5.09, which was the best. The savory taste of S3 was best, and was worst for S1. S3 showed the best overall interest which was 4.55. According to these results, S3 had the lowest sugar content, at 4%, and therefore had the highest possibility of being produced.

The purpose of this study was to investigate sensory characteristics of brown sauce made with different ratio of chicken bone. Brown sauces made from chicken bone and beef bone respectively were evaluated by pH, viscosity, turbidity, Hunter's color and sensory evaluation. With chicken bone increased, pH of brown sauce changed from 5.11 to 5.72 (p<0.05) that was lower than optimal bacterial growth condition between 6.8 and 7.0. Viscosity increased with higher chicken bone ratio (p<0.05) and desired viscosity can be obtained by controlling chicken bone content. Turbidity increased with chicken bone (p<0.05), which might be caused by the thick chicken bone extract. Lower Hunter "L" value and higher "a" and "b" value were shown with increase of chicken bone (p<0.05). The sensory evaluation was performed with scoring tests for color, flavor, viscosity and taste by 20 professional panels who were professional cooks working in I hotel. Better scores of color, flavor, taste and overall evaluation except viscosity were observed with increase of cattle bone (p<0.05). There was not a significant difference between chicken bone and beef bone 0.0 : 10.0 and 2.5 : 7.5 (p>0.05). Brown sauce made with 2.5 : 7.5 can be prepared without reducing sensory quality.

Accurate food composition data are essential for calculation of nutrient intake of a population based on its consumption statistics. In the Korean food composition database, there is a lack of reliable analytical data for tocopherols and tocotrienols. Therefore, this study was conducted to provide information on contents on vitamin E in agricultural processed foods in Korea. Tocopherols and tocotrienols were determined by the saponification extraction method followed by high performance liquid chromatography. Analytical method validation parameters were calculated to ensure the method's validity. Samples were obtained in the years of 2013 and 2014 from the Rural Development Administration. The samples included 34 grains and grain products, 14 snacks, 25 fruits, 5 oils, and 11 sources and spices. All vitamin E isomers were quantitated, and the results were expressed as ${\alpha}$-tocopherol equivalent (${\alpha}-TE$). ${\alpha}-TE$ values of cereal and cereal products, snacks, fruits, oils and sauces and spices ranged from 0.03 to 17.53, 1.01 to 12.84, 0.01 to 1.52, 1.09 to 8.15, and 0.01 to $27.53{\alpha}-TE/100g$, respectively. Accuracy was close to 100% (n=3). Repeatability and reproducibility were 2.04% and 4.69%, respectively. Our study provides reliable data on the tocopherol and tocotrienol contents of agricultural and processed foods in Korea.

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of wine and different meat bones added in brown sauce. Four kinds of brown sauce were prepared to find the changes of physiochemical characteristics, such as pH, $\alpha$-amylase activity, color, viscosity and microorganisms in brown sauce during storage at 4$\^{C}$. The pH of 4 kinds of brown sauce ranged from 5.0 to 5.6, and these pH ranges were stable during storage period. The activity of $\alpha$-amylase was the highest in the brown sauce made with wine and some of chicken bones and the sauces stored for 2 ∼ 6 days. The brown sauce made with wine and some of chicken bones had 35.5% of reducing sugar, which was the highest among 4 kinds of brown sauce, and had the darkest color. Also the brown sauce with wine and some of chicken bones shooed low values of L, a, b after storage and the lowest viscosity among 4 kinds of brown sauce. But they all tended to have higher viscosity during storage, especially two days after. The sauce made with wine and some of chicken bones showed the least change of viscosity and the addition of wine in the sauce appeared to inhibit the microbial growth.
