This study was intended to develop a value-added and functional sauce with addition of Chungkukjang powder. This study was conducted as the following procedure. 10%, 20%, 30%, and 40% of Chungkukjang powder was respectively added to make different Bechamel sauces. And then, physical testing (moisture, color value, viscosity, salinity, spreadability and pH) and sensory testing (a quantitative descriptive analysis and an acceptance test) were performed. After that, the correlation between the physical testing and the sensory testing was investigated to choose an optimal mixture ratio. The study results are presented as follows. As the addition percentage of Chungkukjang powder increased, a-value, b-value, salinity, spreadability, and pH significantly increased (p<0.001), but moisture content, L-value and viscosity decreased. The QDA result indicated that, regarding color intensity(5.89), Chungkukjang flavor(5.32) and Chungkukjang taste(6.26), the 40% addition group had the highest value, and that, regarding thickness(6.42), milk flavor(5.00), oily taste(5.21), mouth feel(5.32), the control group had the highest value. As a result, as the addition percentage of Chungkukjang powder increased, color intensity, Chungkukjang flavor, and Chungkukjang taste increased, but thickness, milk flavor, oily taste, and mouth feel decreased. According to the result of acceptance test, the 20% addition group had the highest value in terms of appearance, flavor, taste, glossy and overall acceptance. As shown earlier, it is considered that proper addition of Chungkukjang powder positively affects the overall acceptance, and that the 20% addition of Chungkukjang powder is most suitable to improve the sensory and physical quality-characteristics of Bechamel sauce.

Statement of problem: For a long time, many of denture base acrylic resins have been used for edentulous and partial edentulous patients because of easy manipulation and good mechanical properties, but its esthetic aspect has not been commented enough. Denture base acrylic resins also has caused esthetic problems due to discoloration or staining as in esthetic restoration. Many researches and reports have treated the problems and accomplished esthetic improvement. But these researches and reports dealt with general food colors or beverages, not with fermented foods. Purpose: This study is designed to assess what fermented foods, such as soy sauce, gochujang, and toenjang that many of Koreans have taken in, influence on the color and hardness variation of denture base acrylic resins. Materials and methods: For the procedure, twelve disks per 4 denture base acrylic resins were fabricated with a thickness of 2mm and 16mm in diameter. Each seven specimen were measured for discoloration with spectrophotometer, while the others, five specimen, for surface hardness change with Barcol hardness tester, over time. Each 12 specimen were immersed into the 4 beakers of fermented foods(soy sauces, gochujangs, toenjangs, deionized water), and $L^{*},a^{*}$, and $b^*$ values were measured for the color difference$({\Delta}E^*)$, on the 1st, 7th, and 28th day with spectrophotometer, with the measurement of surface hardness change. Each data observed was processed statistically. Results: The findings are as follows; Discoloration 1. All of denture base resins was not influenced by the kind of fermented foods, except for $QC20^{(R)}$ 2. Soy sauce and red pepper paste caused more change for denture base resins than deionized water and soy bean paste, except for Perform$^{(R)}$ 3. Most significant change was shown in Lucitone 199$^{(R)}$, whereas Perform$^{(R)}$ results in the least change for all immersed solution, with no statistical significance. Hardness change 1. Barcol hardness values in deposited specimens have been changed low degree, but with significant statistical change according to the kind of food and duration. 2. Lucitone$^{(R)}$ 199 as significantly lower Barcol hardness value than others do. Conclusion: Based on the above results, it suggests that the habitual intake of fermented foods is not helpful for the color stability of denture base acrylic resins because Soy sauce and red pepper paste mainly caused discoloration and surface hardness change. Particularly $Lucitone199^{(R)}$ shows specific discoloration and low surface hardness values. Therefore, it is recommended giving caution patients with denture of $Lucitone199^{(R)}$ especially against the habitual intake of fermented foods like soy sauce and red pepper paste.

Extruded defatted soy flour (DSF) with twin screw extruder was compared with steam treated DSF for soy sauce fermentation. Independent variables of response surface methodology (RSM) for extrusion were barrel temperature $(145{\sim}165^{\circ}C)$, feed moisture content $(25{\sim}35%)$, and feed rate $(20{\sim}30\;kg/hr)$. Extrusion conditions for production of the extrudates having highest water absorption capacity, lowest bulk density and highest expansion ratio were obtained by regression analysis of each dependent variable. Electron photomicrographs revealed significant increase of porosity inside the koji made from extruded DSF. Therefore, growth of fungi inside the koji made from extrudates of DSF was accelerated to achieve higher activities of protease, ${\alpha}-amylase$, and glucoamylase compared to the koji made from steamed DSF. Although amino acid composition of soy sauces prepared from two different DSF did not show any significant difference, the content of free amino acids in soluble nitrogen compounds was higher $(13%{\pm}2)$ in soy sauce made from extruded SDF. During the whole period of fermentation color of soy sauce made from extrudates of DSF was darker. Sensory evaluation did not reveal any serious off-odor and off-taste in the soy sauce fermented from extruded DSF.

In order to develop low salt fermented hen clam sauce with high stability, the effects of citric acid pretreatment and fermentation temperature were examined. The VBN contents of surf clam sauce treated with citric acid (SCA) were lower than those of control and the same sauces added alcohol at two temperature conditions ($5^{\circ}C$ and room temperature) during fermentation. The maximum $NH_2-N$ contents of control and SCA during fermentation at $5^{\circ}C$ were 501.3 and $618.4{\sim}691.6\;mg/100g$, respectively, and the pH of those showed $5.61{\sim}6.24$ and $2.43{\sim}3.21$. The total creatine contents of control and SCA, respectively, were $36.8{\sim}27.6\;mg/100g$ ranges. As the time of treatment with citric acid was longer, the degradation of ATP, ADP and AMP in the SCA was faster. In the control, the Ala content was $19.6{\sim}23.02%$ and was highest level among all free amino acids. As fermenting term was longer, among the free amino acids, Ala and Gly were large amounts in control and SCA, respectively, and Gly was slowly increased in SCA during fermentation. As the results of organoleptic test, the tastes of SCA showed good score than control.

In order to utilize the protein source from a fish proessing by-product, cod was hydrolyzed with various enzymes such as tuna pyloric caeca crude enzyme (TPCCE), a-chymotrypsin, trypsin, papain and pronase E. The TPCCE hydrolysate acquired the highest sensory properties on taste, odor and color. The resultant cod rfame protein hydrolysate (CFPH) which was hydrolyzed with TPCCE, was separated through a series of ultrafiltration membranes with molecular weight cut-off (MWCO) of 30, 10, 5 and 1 kDa, and four types of permeates in cluding 30 K (permeate from 30 kDa membrane), 10 K (permeate from 10 kDa membrane), 5 K (permeate from 5 kDa membrane) and 1 K (permeate from 1 kDa membrane) were obtained. The natural sauces were prepared with 30 K, 10 K, 5 K and 1 K hydrolysate, and the sauce prepared with 1 K hydrolysate was the best score in sensory evaluations. In addition the mixed sauce prepared with 1 K hydrolysate and commercial soy sauce was similar to commercial sauce in sensory properties. These results suggest that the mixed sauce would be utilized as the substitute of acid-hydrolysis sauce.

Antioxidant activities of ethanol extracts of Rumex crispus (RC) were investigated in vitro. Contents of total polyphenols and total flavonoids in RC ethanol extracts were $108.24{\pm}3.29\;{\mu}g/mg$ and $33.06{\pm}2.24\;{\mu}g/mg$, respectively. The antioxidant capacities of RC extracts were high. The RC extracts were capable of directly scavenging DPPH free radicals by acting as reducing agents. This study was also conducted to evaluate the quality characteristics of seasoned pork treated with RC extracts during storage at $4^{\circ}C$ for 21 days. Seasoned pork was produced containing 0, 1, and 3% RC extracts and 0.1% BHA. The DPPH scavenging effect of the seasoning sauces was increased by the addition of RC extracts. The total bacteria and TBARS values of seasoned pork with RC extracts were decreased compared to control, whereas coliform bacteria were not detected after longer storage periods. With regards to sensory evaluation, seasoned pork treated with 1% RC had stronger odor, juiciness, and tenderness compared to seasoned pork. These results suggest that it is possible to manufacture seasoned pork with RC extracts for the improvement of shelf-life and quality.

This study aimed to compare total phenolic, total flavonoid, and vitamin C contents, antioxidant capacities, and sensory characteristics of jangachi made from green kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa cv. Hayward) and golden kiwifruit (A. chinensis cv. Hort16A), which were cured with doenjang and kochujang. Golden kiwifruit had higher total phenolic, total flavonoid, and vitamin C contents, and antioxidant capacities than green kiwifruit. Jangachi of both cultivars of kiwifruit had generally higher total phenolic and flavonoid contents, and antioxidant capacities than fresh kiwifruit. Doenjang jangachi of kiwifruit had higher total phenolic contents and antioxidant capacities than kochujang jangachi. Jangachi made from golden kiwifruit cured with kochujang, following pretreatment with sugar solution, had the highest overall quality on sensory evaluation among jangachies tested herein. Together, our findings suggest that kiwifruit jangachi may serve as a good dietary source of phenolics and antioxidants.

This study was performed in order to investigate the effect of Leuconostoc mesenteroides, Lactobacillus plantarum and salt fermented anchovy extracts on Kimchi sauce. The sauce was fermented more rapidly by addition of Leu. mesenteroids or salt fermented anchovy extracts on the early fermentation stage than the control, but it was fermented slowly on the late fermentation stage. When L. plantarum was added to the Kimchi on the early fermentation stage, the acidity of Kimchi didn't show a significant difference from the control, but acidity was remarkably increased on the late stage. Coliform group was disappeared when acidity of sauce was higher than 0.8% during fermentation. It was controlled by Leu. mesenteroides but not by L. plantarum. Total count and lactic acid bacterial count of the sauces with starter were $6.30{\times}10^6{\sim}1.0{\times}10^7\;CFU/mL$ and $1.04{\sim}2.04{\times}10^6\;CFU/mL$, respectively, but those of the control sauce were $10^6\;CFU/mL$ and $10^4\;CFU/mL$, respectively. Those count of the sauce with starter were higher than those of the control sauce on the later stage of fermentation. Organoleptic quality of the sauce with Leu. mesenteroides was superior to that with L. plantarum.
