The aim of this study was to establish an optimum blanching condition for outer cabbage leaves to increase utilization of the byproduct. Outer leaves of Kimchi cabbages were cut to size ($4{\times}4cm$) and blanched at 80, 90, $100^{\circ}C$ for 1, 3, and 5 min. Subsequently, weight loss, pH, total bacteria, coliform and texture properties were investigated. Sensory evaluation of a ready-to-cook soup prepared from blanched outer leaves was investigated to determine whether the quality of the blanched outer leaves was acceptable. Both weight loss and pH of outer leaves of Kimchi cabbage were increased by blanching. Compared to raw samples, total bacterial counts decreased and coliform bacteria were not detected. The hardness of raw leaf samples was $1.5kg{\cdot}force$ (N). Sample hardness was 18.7~21.7% lower after blanching for 3 min and 34.8~36.7% after blanching for 5 min. Sensory evaluation of outer leaves blanched at $100^{\circ}C$ for 5 min revealed significant differences from the other treatments (p<0.05). In addition, sensory evaluation scores for texture and appearance of outer leaves blanched at $100^{\circ}C$ for 3 min were higher than those for commercially available products. The results of this study indicate that blanching can be effective for developing a food product from the outer leaves of Kimchi cabbage.

The effect of sucrose fatty acid ester(SE,{\;}$0{\sim}5%,{\;}w/w)$ and oligosaccharide(OS,{\;}$0{\sim}1.0%,{\;}w/w)$ additions on texture properties, hardness(H), stickiness(-H), stickiness/hardness(-H/H) and elastic recovery (b/a) of cooked rice stored at $20^{\circ}C$ were studied. The H of stored cooked rice decreased with increasing storage time. The addtion of SE and OS showed lower H value than control throughout the storage period up to 12hrs and after 8hrs of storage time, respectively. The -H of stored cooked rice increased with increasing storage time. The -H value of SE added cooked rice showed much lower than that of the control in the early stage of the storage and then almost the same value as that of control. The control and SE or OS added cooked rice resulted the value of -H/H between 0.15 and 0.20, which had been found as acceptable textural parameters, after 10hrs of storage at $20^{\circ}C$. The b/a of stored cooked rice decreased with increasing storage time, but was not significantly affected by additives. After 15 days of storage at $4^{\circ}C$, the addition of SE had greater effect on the reduction of hardness of stored cooked rice than that of OS.

In order to prevent the blackening and texture softening of heated shrimp, the pH was adjusted by soaking shrimps in acidic and alkali solutions, and their qualities were evaluated. The lightness of shrimps pretreated with 0.2% (w/w) citric acid and 0.05% (w/w) ascorbic acid solution increased by 20% compared to that of the control. The strength of mechanical hardness of shrimps soaked in acetic acid and phosphate solution (pH 6.0) was significantly higher ($1209g_f$) compared to that of untreated shrimp ($801g_f$; p<0.05), and the overall preference of texture was 0.4 points higher than that of the control in the descriptive sensory evaluation (p<0.05). In contrast, soaking in solution of pH 8 exhibited a weak texture hardening effect ($855g_f$). Additionally, the hardness of the heated shrimp after soaking at an adjusted pH of 4.0 increased to $4046g_f$, but the yield based on weight decreased to 38% compared to that of untreated shrimp (70%; p<0.05).

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of dextrinization methods (dry oven and roaster) and the ratio of dextrinized rice on the quality of Backsulgi during storage. The moisture content significantly increased with increasing the amount of dextrinized rice regardless of dextrinization methods. As the ratio of dextrinized rice increased, the L value of the Backsulgi decreased, but the a and b values increased. The a and b values of dry oven method were higher than those of roaster method due to their thermal denaturalization. However, there were no significant pattern's change in sample's colors during storage. In the texture profiles, the hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness significantly decreased with increasing the amount of dextrinized rice depending on the dextrinization methods and the ratios. The time constant (1/k) of the Backsulgi with dextrinized rice comparatively higher than that of control and appeared to be the highest in the Backsulgi formulated by 100% of dextrinized rice. In the sensory evaluation, Backsulgi with dextrinized rice over 30% after 1day storage showed higher value in overall quality and lower value in hardness than control. The addition of 30% dextrinized rice made by roaster showed the most effective on the quality and retrogradation of Backsulgi.

This study investigated the effects of various naked barley starch contents (0, 0.67, 1.34, 2.0, and 2.67 wt%) in surimi mixtures for 3D printing. Adding starch to surimi altered its texture, potentially reducing production costs. Unheated surimi became less firm with higher starch content. After heating, there was an increase in hardness, adhesiveness, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, and resilience, peaking at 1.34 wt% starch. Compared to the negative control, starch-added heated surimi had a tougher texture. The color values (L^*, a^*, and b^*) decreased after heating, with no significant change in shearing force with increasing starch content. Sensory evaluation indicated improved smell, texture, hardness, elasticity, and preference over the negative control. Higher starch content increased hardness for 3D printing suitability with no significant difference above 1.34 wt% starch indicating this is the most appropriate content. Naked barley starch enhanced surimi strength without affecting smell and preference, suggesting it as a potential surimi additive.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of adding various concentrations of defatted soy flour on the quality characteristics of sulgidduk. Sulgidduk samples different in the moisture contents, color values, texture characteristics and sensory characteristics were then measured and compared with each other. As the content of the defatted soy flour increased, their moisture contents were significantly decreased. Lightness values were decreased with increasing the defatted soy flour, whereas their yellowness and redness values were increased. In the texture analysis, hardness and adhesiveness were highest with 10% of defatted soy flour added, and springiness, cohesiveness and chewiness were highest with 7.5% of defatted soy flour added. Finally the results of the sensory evaluation displayed sulgidduk contained 5% of defatted soy flour was the highest in color, flavor, aftertaste and overall preference.

This study was carried out to investigate the quality characteristics of Baiksulgis made of imported rice(Thai and Chinese rice, harvested in 1998) and domestic rice(Chuchung byeo, harvested in 1998 and 1997). Moisture content, color value, yields of reducing sugar by $\beta$-amylase reaction, texture and sensory properties of Baiksulgis were measured. Moisture contents of rice flour and Baiksulgi made of Korean rice harvested in 1997 were highest and those of Thai rice were lowest among the samples. This tends were also seen during storage. Lightness and redness of Baiksulgi made of Thai rice were lowest and yellowness of Baiksulgis made of Korean rice harvested in 1997 and Chinese rice were higher than those made of other rices. Yield of reducing sugar by $\beta$-amylase reaction was highest in Baiksulgi made of Korean rice harvested in 1998 and lowest in Baiksulgi made of Thai rice. And the value decreased less than half of initial value after 24 hour storage. Adhesiveness of Baiksulgi made of Thai rice was zero and cohesiveness, chewiness and gumminess of that were very low. This results showed that Baiksulgi made of Thai rice was lack of chewy texture and this trend was more apparent as the storage time increased. In sensory tests, Baiksulgi made of Chinese rice had most yellowish color and that made of imported rice such as Chinese and Thai rice had more coarse texture than that made of domestic rices. off odor was lowest in Baiksulgi made or Korean rice harvested in 1997 and sweet taste was lowest in that made or Thai rice. Hardness adhesiveness, moistness and chewiness of Baiksulgi made of domestic rices were much higher than those made of impoted rices, and these results showed that Baiksulgi made of domestic rices had acceptable texture. Baiksulgi made of Thai rice showed the lowest acceptability due to lack of above textural characteristics and it was needed to add the material to modify the texture of that.

We fabricated cube-textured Ni and Ni-W alloy substrates for coated conductors and characterized the effects of W addition on microstructure, mechanical strength, and magnetic properties of the substrate. Pure Ni and Ni-(2, 3, 5at.%)W alloys were prepared by plasma arc melting, heavily cold rolled and then annealed at various temperatures of $600-1300^{\circ}C$. The texture was evaluated by pole-figure and orientation distribution function (ODF) analysis. Mechanical properties were investigated by micro Vickers hardness and tension test. Ferromagnetism of the substrate was measured by physical property measurement system (PPMS). It was observed that Ni-W substrates had sharp cube texture, and the full-width at half-maximums (FWHMs) of in-plane texture was $^{\circ}$-5.57$4.42^{\circ}$, which is better than that of pure Ni substrate. In addition cube texture of Ni-W substrates was retained at higher temperature up to $1300^{\circ}C$. Microstructural observation showed that the Ni-W substrates had fine grain size and higher mechanical properties than the pure Ni substrate. These improvements are probably due to strengthening mechanisms such as solid solution hardening and/or grain size strengthening. PPMS analysis showed that addition of W effectively reduced saturation magnetization in applied magnetic field and Curie temperature.

This study was conducted to promote fish paste made with white poria cocos wolf powder as a food. The tested concentrations of the powder were 0, 1, 3, 5, and 7%. All the fish paste samples had 37% water content. For the Hunter color values of samples, L-values decreased but a- and b-values increased with increasing concentrations of the powder. In addition, the folding test scores of all samples were good (AA). In the texture tests, brittleness increased where as springiness decreased with increasing concentrations of the powder. In the sensory evaluations, color, flavor, hardness, and cohesiveness scores increased, and sleekness and oily taste scores decreased, with increasing concentrations of the powder. The fish paste containing 3% white poria cocos wolf powder (3WPWP) had the highest acceptance scores for appearance, flavor, taste, texture, and overall quality. These results suggest that white poria cocos wolf powder can be applied to fish paste to increase its quality.

Wet noodles were prepared with all purposed flour and whey powder, and effects of added whey powder on dough rheology and noodle quality were examined using texture profile analysis, sensory evaluation and colorimeter. The initial pasting temperature in amylograph and the maximum resistance in extensograph increased with the addition of whey powder, while the water absorption and the dough development time in farinograph and the extensibility in extensograph decreased. The weight and volume of cooked noodles decreased and turbidity of soup increased with the addition of whey powder. Sensory evaluation revealed that the texture, taste and overall acceptabillity of cooked noodle from 5% whey powder were significantly different from the others. Texture profile analysis of cooked noodles showed decrease of hardness, cohesiveness, chewiness and springiness with the increase of whey powder. L and a values of wet noodles decreased with the addition of whey powder and b value increased.
