This study investigated the physicochemical properties of rice starch isolated from broken rice using alkaline steeping (AKL) and enzymatic digestion (ENZ) methods. Broken rice starch (BRS) by AKL and ENZ possessed crude protein contents (0.6-1.4%) acceptable to commercial products of native starch and belonged to an intermediate amylose rice starch. AKL-BRS and ENZ-BRS showed a typical A-type crystal packing arrangement with small variations in their relative crystallinity. ENZ-BRS exhibited higher gelatinization onset and peak temperatures, and a narrower gelatinization temperature range than AKL-BRS, indicating that annealing occurred in ENZ-BRS. Lower swelling power and solubility were generally observed in the ENZ-BRS. ENZ-BRS also showed slower viscosity development, higher peak and trough viscosities, and lower breakdown, final, and setback viscosities, compared to those in AKL-BRS. These results are ascribed to the annealing phenomenon in ENZ-BRS. Overall, BRS from cheap broken rice using AKL and ENZ could contribute to the expansion of rice starch utilization in food and non-food industries.

Several domestically consumed sweetpotato derivatives, such as sweetpotato starch for processing raw materials, frozen and refrigerated paste, and powder are dependent on imports. This study was conducted to examine the suitability of sweetpotato cultivars of twelve varieties (powdery-type and viscous type) cultivated in paddy fields, for use in starch, chips, dried products, and beverages. The two-year average yield results of the four cultivars suitable for starch (in order of highest to lowest yield) was as follows: Gogeonmi (4,018 kg/10a); Daeyumi (3,615 kg/10a); Jinhongmi (3,426 kg/10a); Singeonmi (2,837 kg/10a). The starch content was 20.2%, 18.2%, 21.2%, and 20.6% in Daeyumi, Gogeonmi, Singeonmi, and Jinghongmi, respectively. The total amount of starch was higher in Daeyumi (730 kg/10a) and Gogeonmi (731 kg/10a) than that in Singeonmi and Jinghongmi. The yield of Pungwonmi and Shinjami were 4,443 and 3,602 kg/10a, respectively. Powdery-type sweetpotatoes (Daeyumi and Gogeonmi) showed the low decay rates of all cultivars (0.8 and 0%, respectively). The yield of the storage root formation and storage root swelling stages by water-logging treatment decreased by 16.5% and 15.4% for Pungwonmi, and by 17.2% and 10.0% for Shinjami. Drainage management of paddy fields is necessary to reduce the damage caused by water-logging. Our results suggest that cultivation of sweetpotato varieties suitable for processing raw materials in paddy fields will enable stable yields of sweetpotato with a high starch content.

The physicochemical properties of coarse semolina (CS), medium semolina (MS) and fine semolina (FS) were investigated to research method applied in noodles processing of Korean wheat semolina. Large particle (>250 ${\mu}m$) was over 75% in all semolinas, except for FS, and the particle distribution of MS and durum semolina (DS) was similar. Crude protein and crude ash were the highest in DS followed by CS>MS>FS. Crude lipid of DS was the lowest among samples and CS, MS and FS were not significantly different. L value was high in semolina with small particle distribution and starch damage was the lowest in DS followed by FS>MS. Amylose content was high in DS (29.80%) and FS (29.08%) with small particle distribution. Water binding capacity was the highest in DS, and FS showed the highest water binding capacity among Korean wheat samples. Solubility and swelling power were noticeably high in FS with low starch damage and small particle distribution. In scanning electron microscope (SEM), FS and MS showed distribution of separated fine particles of flours. From these results, the physicochemical properties of semolina showed many differences by grinding methods. FS should be applied in noodles processing through additional examination about characteristic of noodle making.

The physicochemical properties of rice flour produced by 3 different grinding methods using various steeping times (3, 6, 9, and 12 hrs) were investigated. Roller mill gave coarse rice flour; the pin mill, intermediate flour; and mixed when both (roller & pin mills) were used. With the increase of steeping times, the rice flours became finer and the contents of crude protein, crude fat and crude ash decreased. Damaged starch was noticeably high in rice flour by roller & pin mills compared to those by roller or pin mills alone. Amylose contents, solubility and swelling power increased as the steeping times increased. Water binding capacity was the highest in roller & pin mills, followed by pin mill. In scanning electron microscope (SEM), pin mill showed distribution of separated fine particles of rice flours. The physicochemical properties of rice flours showed many differences by steeping times of rice and grinding methods. With sufficient steeping times, the rice flours obtained from pin mill were relatively fine having less damaged starch.

The starches were isolated from normal (Mudeung) and waxy (Chalssal) hull-less barleys which contained similar contents of ${\beta}-glucan$ and amylose. Their water binding capacity, swelling power and solubility were analyzed. Scanning electron microscopy showed most starch granules had predominant lense shape granules. The particle size of starch granules was in the range of $0.1{\sim}30\;{\mu}m$. The higher pasting temperature was found for $Mudeung(84^{\circ}C)$ than for $Chalssal(61.5^{\circ}C)$. However, Mudeung barley had a lower peak viscosity(535 BU) than that of Chalssal(1,510 BU). Differential scanning calorymetry analysis showed that To and Tp for two starches were 57.0, $60.6^{\circ}C$ for Mudeung, and were 57.0 and $62.2^{\circ}C$ for Chalssal, respectively. Enthalpy changes were 7.9 and 13.2 J/g for Mudeung and Chalssal, respectively.

The physicochemical properties of starches from aerial and subterranean tuber of yam were compared with those of rice and sweet potato. Aerial tuber yam contained higher level of amylose than others, whereas water binding capacity, swelling power and solubility was highest in subterranean tuber yam starch. Brabender amylograms of 5% starch suspensions indicated that the initial pasting temperature of yam starches were slightly higher than that of rice and sweet potato starches, the maximum viscosities of starches from subterranean and aerial tuber yam were 860 and 590 B.U., respectively. Yam starches were more difficult to hydrolyze by ${\alpha}-amylase$ than rice and sweet potato starches. ${\beta}-Amylolysis\;limit$ for yam starches and their amylose and amylopectin were higher than rice and sweet potato starches. The elution profiles of starches on Sepharose CL-2B were different from each other but they were similar between yam starches. Incomplete debranched fractions in the aerial tuber yam amylopectin was particularly higher than other samples. The weight ratio of short chains to long chains for debranched amylopectins was the lowest in aerial tuber yam.

It is well known that water holding capacity plays an important role in processing such meat products as frankfurter-type sausage and fish meat paste products as kamaboko and fish sausage. Consumer qualities of meat products, such as appearance, flavor, as well as drip and shrinkage on cooking, depend greatly on the degree of water binding. In this paper, the water holding capacities of fish paste and salt added paste of white corvenia, Argyrosomus argentatus and file fish, Novodon modestus were measured by centrifuging and press method before and after cooking. And the effects of the addition of phosphates and starch to enhance water binding and stabilize gel formation were also discussed. In addition, the experimental conditions which are suitable to determine the water binding of fish meat paste product were suggested. The results were expressed in percent of water absorbed by the filter paper when pressed or released by pressor or centrifuge to the weight of sample. From the results. a proper condition to measure the water holding capacity of fish meat paste was that 3.0 g of sample which was previously added with 10 percent water was centrifuged at 13,400 G or 12,000 rpm for 15 minutes for the centriguging method and for press method, 0.3 g sample with 10 percent of water added was extracted by an oil pressor at $30\;kg/cm^2$ for 1 minute. Water holding capacity of fresh paste of white corvenia was relatively higher than that of file fish and the difference between species of fish was greater than the difference between measurments by two methods. Sodium chloride had a great effect on enhancing the water holding capacity of fish meat paste giving better effect when 3.0 percent of salt was added. Phosphates used except calcium phosphate revealed a certain enhancement in water binding, yielding best effect at 0.3 percent addition, and metaphosphate seemed to be more effective in order. The addition of corn starch, however, appeared to be not so effective for enhancement of water binding in fresh-salt-added fish meat paste but in cooked fish paste which might be attributed to absorption of water by starch grain and swelling during the heating and consequently enforced gel strength of cooked fish paste. And the water holding capacity of cooked fish paste was proportionally related to its gel strength.

To investigate the effect of soaking and particle sizes on the properties of rice flour and gluten-free rice bread, wet-milled (WRF, dried at $20^{\circ}C$) and dry-milled rice flours (DRF) were passed through sieves (45 or 100 mesh). Soaking of the rice grains affected the particle size distribution of flour passed through the same size screen. The L and b values of WRF were higher than those of DRF and were not changed with decreasing particle sizes, but DRF increased L and decreased b values. The initial pasting temperatures and setback viscosities of both flours decreased with decreasing particle sizes. The swelling powers at $100^{\circ}C$ increased with decreasing particle sizes in DRF, but maintained in WRF. Starch granules were observed on the surface of flour particles in WRF. The apparent viscosity of WRF paste exhibited 3-5 times higher than that of DRF. Thus, wet milled rice flour with smaller particle sizes (${\phi}<150\;{\mu}m$) showed better properties for making gluten-free rice bread.

This study aims to know what the physicochemical properties and physical properties of the Korean traditional rice cake injulmi made from persimmon powder and glutinous rice(powder), and to come up with a standard recipe of it with the premixed powder of persimmon and glutinous rice. Cooked rice powder with 9 different levels of persimmon in cooling dough(75, 100 and 150${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ power with each 20, 40, and 60%) was tested for rheological parameters, the rate of swelling, degree of gelatinization, sensory evaluation, and the observation of cross section used to electronmicroscope. 1. sensory evaluation conducted by 20 university students as panelists showed that mixed glutinous rice powder and persimmon powder lost their regular forms. increase in persimmon powder content increased a thin layer of starch granule, presumably due to sugar and fiber in the mixed persimmon powder granule. 3. In cooking the rice cake with 20~60% of persimmon, it showed 6.3 to 5.5 pH. 4. Quantitative description analysis conducted by 20 university student s panelists showed that sample that sample C was preferred among 9 samples. From these results, it was concluded that glutinous rice cake cooked with 20% of persimmon powder was quiet acceptable. Optimum cooking condition for the glutinous rice with persimmon powder rice cake was 30min of cooking time and 25$0^{\circ}C$ of cooking temperature with gas oven.
