This study was performed to determine the quality characteristics of lemon pyun with various kinds of getting agents: agar, gelatin, sweet Potato starch, corn starch and Potato starch. Lemon Pyun was made with lemon juice(21.4％), gelling agent(6.7％), water(53.3％), sugar(13.3％) and honey(5.3％). The quality characteristics of the sample were estimated in terms of pH, color difference, texture profile analysis and sensory evaluation. (Ed- as this is an abstract this introductional clause is unnecessary) The PH of lemon pyun showed no significant difference among the different gelling agents. Lightness was significantly(p＜0.05) lowered in the agar and gelatin groups, a value was significantly(p＜0.05) lowered in the sweet potato starch and potato starch groups, and b value was significantly(p＜0.05) lowered in the sweet potato starch group. In texture profile analysis, chewiness, gumminess and hardness were significantly(p＜0.05) increased in the sweet potato starch group. According to sensory evaluation, elasticity and hardness of the sweet potato starch and cornstarch groups were stronger(p＜0.05) than of other gelling agent groups. Lemon pyun containing sweet potato starch was most preferable in terms of Vitamin C provision.

Sweet potato starch noodles prepared without freezing exhibited higher cooking loss and water uptake during cooking and usually resulted in noodles with a softer and stickier texture compared to commercial sweet potato starch noodles manufactured using a freezing process. By utilizing the starches of different plant sources (potato, cowpea, and sago in an equivalent mixture with sweet potato starch), however, the cooking properties and texture of the starch noodles could be improved. Among the starches tested, cowpea starch was most effective in providing cooking and textural properties similar to those of commercial noodles. As an alternative approach, the addition of a minor amount (0.1 % based on total solid weight) of various gums (xanthan, gellan, locust bean gum, curdlan, and carboxymethyl cellulose) was also examined. The addition of curdlan to noodles was effective in increasing the gumminess and hardness, and reducing the stickiness of noodles. Utilizing different starches and gums can improve the overall texture and quality of sweet potato starch noodles produced without freezing.

Starch was isolated from nine Korean sweet potato varieties(Shinmi, Seangmi, Yulmi, Shinyulmi, Sunmi, Jeungmi, Mokpo 26, Mokpo 29, and Mokpo 30) and analysed in its physicochemical properties in comparison with a commercial sweet potato starch(Kumokanyu) imported from China. Protein content in the isolated starch was highest(1.1%) in Mokpo 29 and lowest(0.3%) in Kumokanyu, whereas lipid content was equally less than 0.2%. Pasting analysis by Rapid Viscoanalyser(RVA) showed that Yulmi starch had the lowest pasting temperature(70.2oC) whereas Kumokanyu did the highest one (74.3oC). Under a differential scanning calorimetry(DSC), however, Kumokanyu showed the lowest onset temperature(61.8oC) and enthalpy(42.0 J/g) for crystal melting. Shinyulmi showed the highest peak viscosity of the starch paste, but shear thinning was significant like commercial potato starch. Kumokanyu, however, displayed the least peak visicosity but good shear stability. With the starch gels prepared at 4oC, Mokpo 29 showed the highest hardness, whereas Shinyulmi did the lowest one. Against repeated freeze thawing treatments, the starch gel of Kumokanyu was most stable, and among the Korean varieties, Yulmi, Shinyulmi, Jeungmi and Mokpo 26 had good stability. According to the chain distribution analysis, Shinyulmi and Mokpo 29 consisted of larger quanitites of shorter amylopectin chains than Kumokanyu, potato and corn starches.

Granular shapes and sizes, physicochemical priperties and gelatinization patterns of sweet potato starches from Wonki(the dry type) and Chunmi(the moist type) were investigated. Starch granules of sweet potatoes were round. Granule sizes of Wonki starch were mainly $11{\mu}m$ and those of Chunmi starch were $12{\mu}m\;and\;17{\mu}m$. Wonki starch had lower water binding capacity and swelling power than Chunmi starch. But Wonki starch had higher amylose content, gelatinization temperature, miture content for gelatinization and temperature for gelatinization than Chunmi starch.

We investigated the texture of the sweet potato starch gels treated with maltogenic amylase. Effects of branched gluco-oligosaccharides and acorn starch on the texture of the sweet potato starch gel were also investigated. Hardness and cohesiveness of gels were measured by using Instron and sensory evaluation on the gel properties was performed. From the results of the instrumental analysis, it was found that the overall textural properties as Mook could be improved by adding branched glucooligosaccharides, maltogenic amylase or acorn starch to the sweet potato starch gel. As a result, there was a decrease in the cohesiveness of gels while the hardness of gels increased. The sensory evaluation study indicated that the sweet potato starch gels treated with 0.02% maltogenic amylase, or added with 12.5% branched gluco-oligosaccharides, or mixed with 50% acorn starch had preferable quality as Mook.

This study was perfomed to search for how properties of the starch viscosity appear in different qualities, when acetic acid is added. For this study, corn starch which belongs to A-type. Potato starch to B-type. and sweet potato starch to C-type were chosen as an experimental material. which was added to acetic acid controlled as pH 4.0, 4.5, and 5.0 at the time of before and after heating. After that, the viscosity properties of each starch was analyzed using Amylogram and Brookfield viscometer. As a result. the viscosity was shown high in an order of potato. sweet potato, and corn starch. According to addition of acetic acid. tile viscosity appeared to be low. The viscosity differences of before and after heating when the acid is added were shown as follows : Amylogram shows that the lower the pH is. the lower the viscosity is when the acid is added before-heating. In case the acid is added before-heating, gelatinization temperature, consistency and setback was increased. but breakdown decreased. In case the acid is added after-heating, the viscosity goes down at soon as it is added meanwhile consistency and setback was decreased. but breakdown increased. Such properties of the viscosity show a conspicuous variation in an order of potato. sweet Potato. and corn starch. Brookrield viscometer shows that the lower the apparent viscosity is. the lower pH is at the time of before-heating when the acid is added. In case of after-heating, when the acid is added. the apparent viscosity shows a higher inclination than that of before-heating in corn starch and sweet potato starch.

Physicochemical properties of commercial sweet potato starches manufactured by 7 different companies were investigated in comparison with corn and potato starches. Crude ash and protein content varied from 0.36 to 1.02%, and from 0.04 to 0.14% based on dry weight, respectively. The protein contents were relatively smaller than that of corn or potato starch. But whiteness of the sweet potato starches was less than that of corn or potato starch. Mean diameter of the sweet potato starch granules varied from 14.23 to $21.08\;{\mu}m$ depending on the company and all sweet potato starches showed bimodal size distributions. Pasting viscosity measured by Rapid Viscoanalyzer(RVA) also showed variations among the starches of different companies. The starch from D company in Korea had the lowest pasting temperature$(74.00^{\circ}C)$ whereas the starch from a phillippine company(P) did the highest one$(80.35^{\circ}C)$. The peak viscosity of sweet potato starches was higher than that of corn starch but lower than that of potato starch. The D company starch also showed the highest peak viscosity(2283 cp) among the starches tested. Paste breakdown by hot shearing ranged from 524 cp (S company) to 1279 cp (HL company). Textural properties of the starch gels appeared significantly different among the starches of different manufacturers. The greatest hardness of the gel was $137.90\;g_{f}$ at 1 day storage whereas the lowest value was $31.53\;g_{f}$. Except the starches from 2 companies (P and S), the sweet potato starches formed very soft and weak gels. P or S company starches formed the gels similar to potato starch. Syneresis by freeze-thawing treatments appeared less for sweet potato starch gels than that for corn starch gels, but greater than that for potato starch gel. The overall properties of the sweet potato starches varied by the manufacturing companies, and ranged between those of corn and potato starches.

The physicochemical properties of the hydroxypropylated mung bean, sweet potato and water chestnut starches were studied. The blue value and amylose content of mung bean starch were higher than those of sweet potato and water chestnut. Pasting temperature of hydroxypropylated starches were lower than those of native starch and decreased with increasing contents of propylene oxide. Peak viscosity increased with the increase of degree of hydroxypropylation. With increasing contents of propylene oxide, the clarity and swelling power of all starches were increased and those of mung bean were higher. Mung bean starch produced better hard capsules than sweet potato and water chestnut starch. Hydroxypropylated (>6% propylene oxide) water chestnut starch-based capsules completely dissolved, but hydroxypropylated (>12% propylene oxide) mung bean and sweet potato starch-based capsules were dissolved within 10 min. These results showed that hydroxypropylated starch-based capsules have potentials for pharmaceutical applications as a substitute for gelatin hard capsules.
