This study was carried out to investigate the effects of soybean oil and salt on the mechanical texture and sensory characteristics of Dongbu-Mook (Cowpea Starch Gel). As the amount of the soybean oil was increased, the hardness and chewiness of the Mook were decreased. But there were no significant difference in the cohesiveness and springiness. While the Mook samples made with commercial Dongbu-Mook flour didn't show a significant difference, those made with lab-manufactured Dongbu-Mook flour without salt showed higher hardness, chewiness than the ones with salt. The Mook made of commercial Dongbu-Mook flour was found to be higher in the hardness and lower in the cohesiveness than the one made of lab-manufactured Dongbu-Mook flour. In sensory evaluation, as the amount of soybean oil was increased, all the samples showed higher yellowness and greasiness, and lower clarity, hardness and chewiness. For the samples with salt, the yellowness was high, and the hardness was low. The Mook samples made with lab-manufactured Dongbu-Mook flour had low chewiness. There was no significant difference in the clarity and greasiness. Overall, the Mook samples made with commercial Dongbu-Mook flour showed the best quality, when soybean oil was not added and salt was added. For the Mook made with lab-manufactured Dongbu-Mook flour, the sample with 2% oil and salt was the best.

The objectives of this study were to investigate quality characteristics of Ssookgaedduck which containing 0, 5, 10, 15, 20% of mugwort. The result of sensory evaluation showed that the Ssookgaedduck containing 10-15% mugwort had the high overall acceptability, color and flavor preference. By increasing the level of mugwort, Hunter color L value of Ssookgaedduck decreased. The hardness of Ssookgaedduck increased by the addition of mugwort. However, during 3 days of storage, the hardness of 10-20% mugwort containing Ssookgaedduk increased slowly. For 3 days of storage, 20% mugwort containing Ssookgaedduk showed the lowest total bacterial count than others.

This research focuses on a new softening technology for use with chicken breast and eye of round beef in order to assist elderly individuals who have difficulty with eating due to changes in their ability to chew (masticatory function) or swallow. We investigated the hardness of chicken breast and eye of round beef through use of a texture analyzer after injection of a commercial enzyme. Among 7 commercial enzymes, bromelain and collupulin exhibited a marked softening effect on the tested chicken breast and eye of round beef given a 1.00% enzyme concentration. The hardness of bromelain-treated chicken breast reached 1.4×10⁴ N/m², of collupulin-treated chicken breast reached 3.0×10⁴ N/m², and of bromelain-treated eye of round beef reached 3.2×10⁴ N/m², respectively, while their original shapes did not change. To find the level of tissue degradation with specific enzyme concentrations, enzyme injections at 0.1%, 0.25%, 0.50%, and 1.00% concentration of bromelain and papain were also evaluated. The results of this research could be useful for softening chicken breast and eye of round beef and will contribute to the development of foods that can be more easily eaten as part of a balanced diet for elderly adults.

Tensile properties and hardness of nickel electroform from chloride-free nickel sulfamate electrolyte at 50℃ and PH 4.5 were investigated. Current density varied from 20 to 60 mA/㎠. The deposit thicknesses were 360, 480 and 980 ㎛. It was found in 480 ㎛ thick electroform that highest tensile and yield strengths and hardness of 83.7 ksi, 53.6 ksi and 216 DPH, respectively were obtained at a current density of 40 mA/㎠ and they were slightly decreased at 20 and 60 mA/㎠. However the ductility was lowest of 7.9% at 40 mA/㎠. Such a high strength and low ductility at 40 mA/㎠ seems to be related to the narrower columnar structure than those of other current densities. All the deposits exhibited pronounced necking behavior. Tensile strength, yield strength and ductility increased as the nickel electroform thickens. Initial strong (200) texture developed on stainless steel mandrel decreased and (111) and (220) textures increased as deposit thickness increased, whereas (200) texture was preferred as the current density increased.

The persimmon puree was hydrolyzed with commercial polysaccharide hydrolyzing enzymes, Viscozyme and Celluclast and jam was prepared with the enzyme treated persimmon juice by addition of pectin. The textural characteristics of the jam were studied for the effects of pectin addition and storage temperature. When the persimmon jam was prepared with the enzyme treated juice with addition of pectin(2.2∼3.0%), the hardness of the go] was stabilized at the addition level of more than 2.8% as measured by %sag. The hardness, cohesiveness, adhesiveness, and gumminess were also significantly increased as the amount of pectin addition increased, whereas the cohesiveness and elasticity did not change significantly. The gel prepared with the puree hydrolyzed with Celluclast generally showed higher hardness, gumminess and adhesiveness and less cohesiveness and elasticity than those treated with Viscozyme. Higher temperature (17$^{\circ}C$) caused a significant decrease in most of the textural properties except elasticity. Results of sensory test showed the orange colors was much improved by the Celluclast treatment, while other characteristics such as total acceptability and texture were not significantly different.

Freeze-drying process was used for 10 major protein foods referred by the Korea Health Statistics 2011 as follows; chicken, pork, beef, eggs, tofu, squid, soybean, mackerel, anchovy, and pollack/frozen pollack. Boiled samples and re-hydrated samples after freeze-drying were prepared for analysis. The weight variation, the chromaticity, the mechanical texture and sensory properties by eight trained panelists were measured. In the ratio of re-hydration, the anchovy showed the highest value(89.40%), followed by eggs, and squid showed the lowest value(35.51%). Changes of Hunter color value were observed among all samples. For rates on changes of hardness, every sample was increased except for eggs(p<.05). Among the 9 samples, except for eggs, chicken showed the lowest rate of increase in hardness(125.44%) while squid showed the highest rate of increase in hardness(1335.1%). Except for eggs and pork, eight samples represented differences in sensory properties, especially in juiciness and tenderness(p<.05). As a result, we found that egg is the most suitable for freeze-drying among 10 protein sources followed by pork and chicken.

This study compared the effects of autoclaving (AC; $121^{\circ}C$ for 15 min), gamma (GR), and electron beam irradiation (EB; 0-20 kGy) on the microbial, physicochemical, and sensory properties of ready-to-eat bulgogi during storage at $35^{\circ}C$ for 90 d. No viable cells were observed (p<0.05) upon AC, GR or EB at more than 15 kGy. However, adverse effects such as tenderization and deterioration of sensory properties were induced in bulgogi upon AC and high dose irradiation. Especially, the hardness and sensory qualities (texture and taste) of the AC-treated samples were extremely deteriorated (p<0.05). These results indicate that use of GR and EB (15 kGy) can ensure the microbial safety of bulgogi without compromising the hardness and sensory properties (texture, taste and flavor).

The texture describing terms used for the Korean staple foods, cooked rice, noodles and Kimchi, were surveryed by questionnaire. A total of 154 kinds of terms were collected from 68 answers, in which 95 words were found with definite textural meaning in Korean dictionaries. The terms were classified according to their physical properties by Szczesniak's method. The important textural properties of different types of Korean foods were pointed out by the frequency of mentioning and by the preference expressions. The representative Korean words expressing each textural property of different types of food were selected. The important textural properties for Korean were hardness, brittle-gumminess, chewiness, springiness, adhesiveness, particle size and shape, moisture content and fat content of cooked rice, chewiness, hardness, springiness, and particle size and shape of noodles, and hardness, brittle-gumminess, chewiness, springiness and particle shape and orientation of Kimchi.
