This study was conducted to analyze the cooling and the quality characteristics of milled rice stored in the forced air-blast type using thermo -electric semiconductor and in the still-air type chambers using refrigeration system with refrigerant(R-22). Cooling rates of milled rice in the forced air-blast type and in the still-air type chambers were $0.30\;^{\circ}C/hour$ and $0.21\;^{\circ}C/hour$, respectively. And the temperatures of cooling air and of milled rice at different positions in the forced air-blast type chamber showed severer change than those in the still-air type chamber. During storage of milled rice in the forced air-blast type and still-air type chambers for 14 weeks, there was no significant difference in the quality characteristics, such as b value and fat acidity of milled rice, and overall sensory quality of cooked rice. But the quality characteristics of milled rice stored in room temperature chamber($25^{\circ}C$) as control decreased very rapidly compare to those stored in the cooling chambers. In aspect of fat acidity of milled rice, 6 weeks was the limitation for the safe storage in room temperature.

This study was designed to examine the effectiveness of an unused tunnel as a rice storage place. The physicochemical changes of rice grains were investigated during 8-months of storage in the tunnel located at Kyungnam province, Korea. Two kinds of tunnel stored rices, NP(rice grown with no pesticides) and LP(rice grown with less pesticides) were compared with $5^{\circ}C$ stored rice as a control. The peroxidase activities, as an index of freshness of rice grains, gradually decreased and NP appeared to be fresher than LP. Whiteness, grain wholeness, and chalkyness were less desirable for the tunnel stored rice than the control, with no significant difference of physicochemical properties, including the broken, damaged, colored rice, and contents of moisture, protein, and amylose. Palatability dropped below 70 in all three groups at later phase. The sensory evaluation showed that overall preference was slightly higher for the control but not significantly different from the other two groups. From all the evidences shown, unused tunnels may be an effective place for a long-term rice storage, since the average temperature inside the tunnel was maintained very constantly around $14.3^{\circ}C$ and relative humidity was optimal for rice storage, especially during spring and summer seasons.

The objective of this study was to determine physicochemical changes in brown rice during ageing condition. Five varieties (Haiami, Ilpum, Daecheong, Jungwon, and Dasan1) of brown rice were stored at $35^{\circ}C$ for 8 weeks. Crude protein and lipid content, seed germination rate, fat acidity, tocol content, TOYO glossiness value, pasting properties, and composition of storage proteins were measured to evaluate its quality during storage. The isomers of tocols (tocopherol and tocotrienols) were quantified using HPLC system, and the pattern of variation in rice storage proteins was examined through electrophoresis of protein extracts. Seed germination rate decreased by 2.7 times, whereas the fatty acid value dramatically increased by 4.8 times after 8 weeks of storage. Toyo glossiness value of cooked milled rice considerably affected by storage period, and the pasting properties of milled rice were also influenced by storage. The final viscosity and breakdown value increased, but setback decreased during storage. In terms of storage protein, proportion of prolamin (14.3 kDa) and globulin (26.4 kDa) increased, whereas percentage of glutelin (34-39 kDa and 21-22 kD) decreased. Furthermore, the contents of total tocol and isomers decreased in stored brown rice.

Extractives of garlic (Allium scorodorpasum) and green pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) were used to prevent and exterminate rice weevils which contaminate stored rice. The extractives exhibited great efficacy against Sitophilus oryzae and Tribolium castaneum by annihilating all the weevils contained in a bottle. Furthermore, kraft paper coated by 5% extractives also displayed good effectiveness against the rice weevils. When rice weevils were stored with rice in a sack made of extractives-coated kraft paper, the number of living insects was sharply decreased according to elapsed time. In particular, 1,4-benzoquinone, which is very harmful to human, was detected from rice contaminated by Sitophilus oryzae and Tribolium castaneum through the analysis of GC/MS.

This study was carried out to improve the qualities and extend the shelf life of Yukwa and Salyeotgangjung, traditional Korean cookies, using fine hot salt instead of oil as the popping medium. The Yukwa and Salyeotgangjung that had been popped using fine salt were stored at 25\ulcornerfor one or two months, and then compared their sensory evaluation, lipid contents and acid and peroxide values with those popped in oil. In the sensory test, the Yukwa base and popped rice expanded in the salts and stored for one month were preferred to those expanded in oil with regard to flavor and overall acceptability. With respect to the whiteness, off-flavor, and crispness, these properties those expanded in salt had stronger whiteness and crispness but a weaker off-flavor compared to those expanded in oil. The lipid contents of the Yukwa base and popped rice expanded in oil were 37.73 and 49.65%, respectively, which were significantly higher than in those expanded in salts (0.10 and 0.53%, respectively). The acid and peroxide values were larger in those expanded oil than in salts after 8 weeks storage. In view of the above results, the conclusion was reached that the Yukwa base and popped rice expanded in salts were less likely to provide a calorie intake and to become rancid over a long storage time.

Twenty five 75% Holstein Friesian cross bred bullocks fed rice straw (Oryza sativa) of long form, were fed with the following five treatments. 1. Rice straw, untreated (RS) 2. RS + water (1:1), stored for 24 hours (WRS) 3. RS (100 kg) + urea solution (4 kg urea/100 litre water) and dried (USRS) 4. RS (100 kg) + urea solution (as in 3) stored in wet condition for 24 hours (UWRS) 5. RS (100 kg) + urea solution (as in 3) stored in pit for 21 days (UTRS). Potential digestibility of treatments of RS was evaluated by monitoring (in vitro) Simulating Rumen like Fermentation (SRLF). The results indicated that Dry Matter Intake (DMI), digestibility of nutrients, N utilization were of the order UTRS > UWRS > USRS > WRS and RS (p < 0.05 to p < 0.01). SRLF index was high (255.84) for UTRS and least (145.58) for USRS. It was intermediary (199.66) for UWRS. The acetyl content (AC) of UTRS with higher hemicellulose (HCE) digestibility (80.8%) was low compared to UWRS, USRS, RS and WRS. The acetate content was of the order UTRS < UWRS < USRS < WRS and RS thereby indicating that reduction in acetyl content was an index of positive response of urea-treatment of RS. In addition, the ratio of HCE/AC in faeces of UTRS was 0.87 as against the ratios (2.26-2.48) observed in other treatments recording reduction in AC due to urea-treatment. Among the treatments, USRS only supplemented N while UTRS in addition to utilization N, increased the digestibility of structural carbohydrates. Reduction in treatment time from 21 days to 1 day (UWRS) resulted in improvements similar to those of UTRS.

This study was conducted to investigate the properties of rice makgeolli stored with different quantities of Cheonnyuncho fermentative extract (1%, 3%, 5%). Plain rice makgeolli(control)and cheonnyuncho-containing rice makgeolli(cheonnyuncho makgeolli) were stored and ripened for 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 days at $5^{\circ}C$. The mineral contents of cheonnyuncho Makgeolli was higher than that of rice makgeolli. At the end of storage periods, the pH value of 1% cheonnyuncho makgeolli was higher than that of rice makgeolli. Of the major organic acids found in cheonnyuncho makgeolli (succinic, lactic, acetic, phosphoric, and malic), succinic acid had the highest concentration. Similarly, of all the free sugars, glucose was the most prominent. Before storage, hunter color L and b values were the highest in control followed by 1%, 3% and 5% cheonnyuncho makgeolli. At the end of storage period, color a value decreased in 1% cheonnyuncho makgeolli, whereas it increased in 3% and 5% cheonnyuncho makgeolli. The antioxidative effect of makgeolli was seen in 3% cheonnyuncho makgeolli. Total viable counts were the lowest in 3% cheonnyuncho makgeolli at the end of storage periods. A sensory evaluation test showed that the taste of cheonnyuncho-containing makgeolli was significantly better than that of control. From these results, we conclude that addition of cheonnyuncho fermentative extract at a concentration of 1-3% is suitable for the manufacturing of makgeolli products.
