  • This study was to evaluate the values of Korean native sweet sorghum as a new feed crop for ruminants. Sweet sorghum was the Muan native species (Bioenergy Crop Research Center, National Institute of Crop Science), and cultivated from May to October 2021 at Sangji University (Wonju-si, Gangwon-do, Korea). There were a non-treated group (Con), a recommended amount treatment (RD) and a treatment with double the recommended amount (Double RD) by an oil cake fertilizer. Plant height was measured at weekly intervals for 12 weeks after planting sweet sorghum seedlings, and was a significant difference in the order of Double RD, followed by RD and Con in 7 weeks (p<0.05). Feed values and sugar contents were measured in 7, 9, and 11 weeks. Crude protein of Double RD was higher than that of the other treatments in 7 and 9 weeks (p<0.05). Crude fat was higher at Double RD than the other one in 9 weeks (p<0.05). ADF and NDF of Double RD were higher than the other one (p<0.05). When it was compared to corn and sudangrass hybrids grown on farms, Crude protein was lower in sweet sorghum than other crops (p<0.05), and crude fat was higher in sweet sorghum than corn (p<0.05). Crude fiber, ADF and NDF were higher in sweet sorghum compared to corn and sudangrass (p<0.05). The sugar contents of sweet sorghum were 4.07 ± 0.12~7.63 ± 0.21 brix, and showed higher than corn and sudangrass hybrid (p<0.05). The rumen in situ digestibility of sweet sorghum was 30.73~38.13% at the 9th and 11th weeks, and showed higher than that of corn and sudangrass hybrids (p<0.05). Therefore, it is considered that Korean native sweet sorghum has sufficient value as a new forage crop for ruminants, and good value as yield, nutrients and digestibility, when the grass height is 273.33~332.50 cm.

  • (+)-Hernandulcin and (+)-4${\beta}$-HYdroxyhernandulcin was isolated as a sweet bisabolane sesquiterpene constituent of the Mexican plant Lippia dulcis Trev. (Verbenaceae) and has shown to be 1,000-1,500 times as sweet as sucrose. Natural (+)-hernandulcin was nontoxic when administered orally to mice and it did not induce bacterial mutation. (omitted)

  • We investigated the physical characteristics and changes in the functional components of red pepper paste, or gochujang, during fermentation at $20^{\circ}C$ for 90 days with different amounts of sweet persimmon powder. The viscosity of the paste decreased a little with increasing fermentation time. There was no significant difference (p<0.05) in all the treatments during fermentation. The L value, a value, and b value showed a tendency to gradually decrease with increasing fermentation time. And the samples with sweet persimmon powder showed a lower values compared to the control during fermentation. The phenolic compound content of the paste with sweet persimmon powder ranged from 13.72 mg% to 16.13 mg% at an early stage of fermentation, showing a significantly higher value (p<0.05) when increasing the amount of the powder. The content was in the range of 13.72~16.09 mg% on the 90th day in the final stage of fermentation, showing no significant difference (p<0.05) compared to those content at an initial stage of fermentation. The carotenoid content showed significantly higher values (p<0.05) when increasing the amount of sweet persimmon powder. In conclusion, sweet persimmon powder in the red pepper paste would gives a more functional effect which could be from bioactive components, such as phenolic compounds and carotenoids. But, it did not positively affect the color of the red pepper paste.

  • This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of adding purple-fleshed sweet potato (PFP) powder on the texture properties and sensory characteristics of cooked pork sausage. Sodium nitrite alone and sodium nitrite in combination with PFP were added to five different treatments sausages (CON (control) = 0.01% sodium nitrite, SP25 = 0.005% sodium nitrite and 0.25% purple-fleshed sweet potato powder combination, SP50 = 0.005% sodium nitrite and 0.5% purple-fleshed sweet potato powder combination, PP25 = 0.25% purple-fleshed sweet potato powder, PP50 = 0.5% purple-fleshed sweet potato powder). The sausages were cooked to $74^{\circ}C$, stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for 6 wks, and used for chemical analysis, textural properties, and a sensory evaluation on 0, 2, 4 and 6 wks of storage, respectively. Similar CIE $a^*$ and $b^*$ values were determined in sausages from CON, SP25 and SP50 at the end of storage, and they were higher in CIE $a^*$ but lower in CIE $b^*$ than that of the PP25 and PP50 sausages. Significant differences were observed for brittleness and hardness when PFP was added to the sausages but were not confirmed after 4 wks of storage. The objective color score was influenced by adding PFP; however, the effect was not dose dependent. In overall acceptability, panelists favored the CON, SP25, SP50, and PP50 sausages but did not prefer PP25 sausages at the end of storage. Therefore, adding PFP to cooked pork sausages improved color and texture properties and sensory characteristics, but further study is needed to determine the proper ratio of sodium nitrite and PFP.

  • This study was conducted to investigate the kernel characteristics of sweet corn during ripening with different sowing date. Godangok and Guseulok were sown at April 10, July 10, July 20, and July 30 in 2013. Irrespective of sowing date, fresh and dry weight of 100 kernel, starch content, crude fat content, and hardness of sweet corn kernels were significantly increased according to maturation (p<0.05). But moisture content, total sugar content, crude protein content and crude ash content of sweet corn kernels were significantly decreased according to maturation (p<0.05). The changing rates of 100 kernel weight and starch content on kernels were faster at early sowing date than at late sowing date. The moisture content of sweet corn kernels was 68~69% at optimum for harvesting. The degree of sweetness on Godangok was about 1.8 and 1.4 times higher in sowing at July 20 and July 30 than in sowing at April 10. On the other hand, the degree of sweetness was similar regardless of sowing time on Guseulok. These results will be helpful to farmers for fall-harvest sweet corn cultivation and management.
