The optimum conditions for manufacturing pomegranate makgeolli, cloudy Korean rice wine, treated with different levels of pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) juice concentrate were investigated. The pH, titratable acidity, amino acid content, soluble solid content, and alcohol content were measured, and the sensory properties of the makgeolli were evaluated. The pH, titratable acidity, soluble solid content and alcohol content of pomegranate makgeolli increased as the addition level of pomegranate juice concentrate increased. The amino acid content of makgeolli significantly decreased with increasing addition level of pomegranate juice concentrate. In the sensory evaluation, makgeolli with 3% pomegranate juice concentrate added during one-step-brewing had the most preferable flavor, sweetness, bitterness and overall acceptance among all samples. In conclusion, the addition of 3% pomegranate juice concentrate during one-step-brewing for makgeolli would be the best conditions for manufacturing pomegranate makgeolli.

Physicochemical characteristics and analysis of functional constituents of mulberry (Morus alba L.) fruit juices were investigated according to four different mulberry cultivars, including iksuppong, daeseongppong, cheongilppong and kwasangppong. Among the four mulberry cultivars examined, the small-sized cheongilppong had higher soluble solid content and lower titratable acidity, whereas the big-sized daeseongppong had higher titratable acidity and lower soluble solid content than other mulberry cultivars. Cheongilppong had higher contents of fructose and glucose, while daeseongppong had higher contents of citric and malic acids than the other mulberry cultivars. Kwasangppong had higher contents of two anthocyanins, cyanidin 3-glucoside and cyanidin 3-rutinoside, while cheongilppong had lower contents of two anthocyanins than the other mulberry cultivars. Daeseongppong had higher contents of resveratrols, flavonoids and moracin, whereas cheongilppong had higher levels of protocatechuic, chlorogenic and caffeic acids than the other mulberry fruits. Of the four mulberry cultivars, daeseongppong and cheongilppong had higher contents of GABA and DNJ, respectively, than the other mulberry cultivars. These results provide useful information to food technologists for the development and standardization of high quality mulberry juices as well as their processed foods.

This research was conducted to find out whether controlled atmosphere(CA) can maintain Satsuma Mandarin fruit fresh longer compared to cold storage. Fruit harvested in Nov. 1998 at Jeju Province were stored in three different CA condition including cold storage. The CA treatments consisted of combinations of 3%, 5% and 10.9% $CO_2$ with 1% and 3-3.9% $O_2$, respectively. Weight and firmness were maintained higher in static CA chambers than in the cold storage. Soluble solid content in fruit of cold storage increased until 2 months of storage and thereafter sharply decreased, whereas that of CA-stored fruit increased slowly throughout the storage period of 120 days. Citric acid decreased obviously in all the treatments with a partially longer retention in CA chambers during storage. Sensory evaluation clearly showed that CA could extend market period of Satsuma Mandarin fruit.

Rendering, is attracting attention as a technology that can stably and quickly process livestock carcasses. However, large amounts of livestock carcass solid residues are discharged in this process and limited methods are available for recycling them. In this study, rendered animal carcass solid residues were pyrolyzed to produce carbonized materials (350℃; RACR-C) and their chemical properties were investigated. Further, RACR-C were applied to cabbage cultivation for investigating their crop growth characteristics and soil improvement effects. RACR-C contained large amounts of fertilizer components such as nitrogen and phosphorus, and showed no toxic effects on the seedling growth of crops. The content of water-soluble nutrients released from RACR-C under the reaction time increased rapidly within 30 min, but was insignificant compared to the total content. Thus, most fertilizer components in RACR-C were not readily soluble in water. The optimal application amount for applying RACR-C to cabbage cultivation based on the changes in cabbage growth, inorganic content, and soil chemistry was 200 kg/10a. Overall, pyrolysis of solid residues after rendering livestock carcass to produce carbonized material as a soil improver is an effective method to recycle the waste discharged from the rendering process.

Organic kiwifruits were smaller fruit size but had higher magnesium and dry matter content than conventional, meanwhile, fruit soluble solid content was similar to conventional. There were no significant difference in polyphenol contents and antioxidative capacity between organic and conventional although there were considerable variations among sample orchards. Several minerals were also similar levels in both systems.

This study was conducted to monitor the quality characteristics of Artemisis capillaris ethanolic extract by response surface methodology. The independent variables were extraction temperature ($X_1$; 60, 70, 80, 90, and $100^{\circ}C$), extraction time ($X_2$; 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 hr), and ethanol concentration ($X_3$; 0, 20, 40, 60, and 80%). Soluble solid content ($Y_1$), chlorogenic acid content ($Y_2$), and coumaric acid content ($Y_3$), etc. were analyzed as the dependent variables. Estimated optimal conditions for soluble solids were an extraction temperature of $87.65^{\circ}C$, extraction time of 3.19 hr, and ethanol concentration of 42.40%. The optimal extraction conditions for chlorogenic acid were $84.30^{\circ}C$, 3.14 hr, and 47.85%, respectively. Further, those for coumaric acid were $83.45^{\circ}C$, 3.40 hr, and 45.39%, respectively. Extraction conditions for effective components of Artemisis capillaris were superimposed by response surface plots on optimization extraction condition of each dependent variable, including soluble solid, chlorogenic acid, and coumaric acid contents. As a result, superimposed extraction conditions were $80{\sim}90^{\circ}C$, 3~4 hr, and 40~50%, respectively. Under these conditions, soluble solid, chlorogenic acid, and coumaric acid contents were 1.09%, 25.66 mg%, and 20.25 mg%, respectively.

This study was conducted to investigate the quality characteristics of bread added with four different amounts (0% 3%, 6%, 9%, 12%) of gochujang. The pH, total soluble solid and moisture content of bread added with gochujang were $4.88{\pm}0.05$, $62.00{\pm}0.81%$ and $42.88{\pm}007$, respectively. For amino nitrogen content $224.00{\pm}0.00%$, chromaticity had a L value of $24.46{\pm}0.06$, a value of $10.18{\pm}0.13$, and b value of $7.44{\pm}0.10$. The pH of bread decreased with increasing gochujang content in bread. Total soluble solids of dough increased with increasing gochujang in bread (p<0.001). For fermentation 3% expansion was the highest, and bread volume and specific volume increased with increasing gochujang in bread. For baking loss, 12% was the highest. L values of bread decreased for both crust and crumb with increasing gochujang content in bread, and b values tended to decrease for both. Moisture contents increased with increasing gochujang content (p<0.001). For hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, and gumminess, chewiness of 12% gochujang added to bread showed the lowest value. Evaluation of sensory characteristics of 3% gochujang added to bread was the best. In conclusion, these results confirm that bread with gochujang has good effects on fermentation and preference.

The transfer of predictive models using various chemometric techniques has been reported for FTNIR and scanning-grating based NIR instruments with respect relatively dry samples (<10% water). Some of the currently used transfer techniques include slope and bias correction (SBC), direct standardization (DS), piecewise direct standardization (PDS), orthogonal signal correction (OSC), finite impulse transform (FIR) and wavelet transform (WT) and application of neural networks. In a previous study (Greensill et at., 2001) on calibration transfer for wet samples (intact melons) across silicon diode array instrumentation, we reported on the performance of various techniques (SBC, DS, PDS, double window PDS (DWPDS), OSC, FIR, WT, a simple photometric response correction and wavelength interpolative method and a model updating method) in terms of RMSEP and Fearns criterion for comparison of RMSEP. In the current study, we compare these melon transfer results to a similar study employing pairs of spectrometers for non-invasive prediction of soluble solid content of peaches.

Leaves of Aloe vera Linne and bloods of domestic animal were composted in a soild state fermentation reactor (SSFR) by using microbial additive including a bulking and moisture controlling agent. From solid-culture of microbial additive, 10 species of bacteria and 10 species of fungi were isolated and, their enzyme activities including amylase, carboxy methyl cellulase CMCase, lipase and protease were detected. Optimum fermentation conditions of Aloe leaves and domestic animal bloods in SSFR were obtained from the studies of response surface analysis employing microbial additive content, initial moisture content, and fermentation temperature as the independent variables. The optimum conditions for SSFR using Aloe leaves were obtained at 9.45$\pm$73%(w/w) of microbial additives, 62.73$\pm$4.54%(w/w) of initial moisture content and 55.32$\pm$3.14$^{\circ}C$ of fermentation temperature while those for SSFR using domestic animal bloods were obtained at 10.25$\pm$2.04%, 58.68$\pm$4.97% and 57.85$\pm$5.$65^{\circ}C$, respectively. Composting process in SSFR was initially proceeded through fermentation and solid materials were decomposed within 24 hours by maintaining higher moisture level, and maturing and drying steps are followed later. After the fermentation step, the concentrations of solid phase inorganic components were increased while that of organic components were decreased. Also, concentrations of total organic carbon(TOC), peptides, amino acids, polysaccharides, and low fatty acids in water extracts were increased. As fermentation in composting process depends on initial C/N ratios in water extracts of two samples were increased because of increased water-soluble TOC. From these results, it was revealed that solid state fermentation reactor using microbial additives can be used in composting process of organic wastes with broad C/N ratio.
