This study was conducted to investigate the effects of supplementation diets of pine needle powder on performance, proximate composition, carcass characteristics, blood cholesterol concentration, TBARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive substance), WHC (water holding capacity), and shear force of chicken meat. Broiler chicks were fed diets for five weeks containing 0% pine needle powder (Control), 0.3% pine needle powder (T1), 0.6% pine needle powder (T2), and 0.9% pine needle powder (T3). Performance was no significant difference among treatment groups, but mortality was decreased in diets by the supplementation of pine needle powder than that of T1 and control. The moisture, crude protein, crude fat, and crude ash were no significant difference. The liver weight and abdominal fat was significantly decreased by the supplementation of pine needle powder compare to the T1 and control (P<0.05). The total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol concentration of control was higher than treatment groups, and the HDL-cholesterol concentration and glucose of control was lower than treatment groups (P<0.05). The TBARS value was significantly decreased by the supplementation of pine needle compared to the control (P<0.05). In conclusion, these data indicate that 0.6% pine needle powder supplementation (T2) was most effective in decreasing mortality, total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol and increasing HDL-cholesterol concentration.

In order to expand the use of hog liver by the food industry, spreadable liver product was manufactured and quality changes were investigated depending on storage temperature at $-2^{\circ}C,\;5^{\circ}C\;and\;20^{\circ}C$ for 30 days. pH, thiobarbituric acid (TBA), volatile basic nitrogen (VBN), color, microbiological and sensory evaluation were carried out. Changes in pH values were not significantly different at different storage temperatures. TBA values were 0.6 mg MA/kg at $-2^{\circ}C$ after 30 days, 0.80 mg MA/kg at $5^{\circ}C$ after 21 days and showed 0.91 mg MA/kg at $20^{\circ}C$ after 14 days. The change in VBN content tended to increase during prolonged storage periods regardless of storage temperature. The product color tended to lighten over time, although there was no difference in a value of color during storage periods. Also, sensory evaluation results showed that the optimal storage temperature for the liver product was $5^{\circ}C$. The numbers of general bacteria increased to a level of 7.38 log CFU/g on storage 7 days in $20^{\circ}C$. This study showed that a viable spreadable liver product could be manufactured using hog liver and remains edible for at least 14 days when stored at temperatures below $5^{\circ}C$.

The objective of this study was to determine the shelf-life effects and residual nitrite contents of mugwort and pine needle extracts addition in emulsified sausage during cold storage. The sausages were of five types: no mugwort and pine needle extracts added (Control), mugwort water extract added (T1), mugwort ethanol extract added (T2), pine needle water extract added (T3), and pine needle ethanol extract added (T4). Each sausage type was tested in triplicate and assigned to one of four storage periods: 0, 10, 20 and 30 days. As storage time increased, the presence of mugwort and pine needle extracts resulted in decreased pH, CIE $L^*$, and residual nitrite value, but increased TBARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive substance) values, and total plate counts (TPC). Values for pH, TBARS, residual nitrite contents and total plate counts were significantly decreased by the addition of mugwort and pine needle extracts compared to the control (P<0.05). Among all treatments, T4 was more (P<0.05) effective in delaying lipid oxidation compared to other treatment groups. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that addition of pine needle ethanol extract to emulsified sausages tended to improve antioxidant and antimicrobial effects and residual nitrite contents during storage than other treatment groups.

This study investigated the quality properties of enhanced beef, manufactured by injecting the beef with a brine containing winter mushroom juice powder (WMJP). The enhanced beef was manufactured by injecting the eye of round with brine (15% by green weight). Four treatments consisted of control (no injection of brine) and three enhanced beef, EBS (brine containing 5 g sodium chloride per kg beef), EBW 0.2 (brine containing 5 g sodium chloride and 2 g WMJP per kg beef), and EBW 0.5 (brine containing 5 g sodium chloride and 5 g WMJP per kg beef), were tested. The effect of enhancement or WMJP on the quality properties of beef was evaluated during storage at 4℃ for 1, 5, and 10 days. Total aerobic bacteria counts between the control and the enhanced beef, and among EBS, EBW 0.2, and EBW 0.5 were not significantly different after any storage period (p > 0.05). The pH of beef was not different between the control and the enhanced beef, and among enhanced beef at 1 and 5 days of storage (p > 0.05). However, it was higher in the enhanced beef than control, and EBW 0.2 and EBW 0.5 had higher pH than EBS after 10 days of storage (p < 0.05). The enhanced beef showed a high total loss at all storage days (p < 0.05). There were no differences in total loss among enhanced beef after any storage period (p > 0.05). The enhanced beef had no consistent differences in L*, a*, and b* values with control during storage, however, EBW 0.5 showed high color stability. The hardness of the enhanced beef was significantly lower than that of the control after 10 days of storage, although the values were lower at all storage stages. EBS 0.5 had the lowest thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) value among cooked beef of all treatments at all storage days. The enhanced beef received higher scores in all sensory properties than control, and no negative effect of WMJP was found in the sensory quality of the enhanced beef. The use of winter mushroom juice can result in quality improvement in enhanced beef.

The effective extraction of antioxidative substances from soybean was investigated by using various solvents, such as water, ethanol, methanol, acetone, chloroform, benzene, ethyl acetate, ether, dichloromethane, and hexane. Extraction was performed by cold method at $30^{\circ}C$ and by reflux method at $85^{\circ}C$. The antioxidative effect of the extracts was determined by peroxide value during the oxidation of soybean oil containing the extracts at $105^{\circ}C$ for 10 hours, and also by TBARS(thiobarbituric acid reactive substances) formed during the peroxidation of egg lecithin liposomes. The antioxidant activity of the extracts from raw soybean was higher than that from defatted soybean. The antioxidant activity of the extracts by reflux method was higher than that by cold method. The methanol extract from defatted and roasted soybean(DRS) showed the highest antioxidative effect against oxidation of soybean oil, while the water extract from DRS in egg lecithin liposomes. In the peroxidation of egg lecithin liposomes, the antioxidative effect of polar solvents extracts were higher than those by nonpolar solvents extracts.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of replacing sucrose with sugar alcohols (sorbitol, glycerol and xylitol) on the quality properties of semi-dried jerky. Total 7 treatments of jerkies were prepared as follows: control with sucrose, and treatments with 2.5 and 5.0% of sucrose replaced by each sugar alcohol, respectively. Drying yield, pH, water activity, moisture content, shear force, myofibrillar fragmentation index (MFI), 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) value, sugar content, and sensory evaluation were evaluated. Xylitol slightly decreased the pH when compared to the other sugar alcohols (p>0.05). The water activity of the semi-dried jerky was significantly reduced by treatment with glycerol and xylitol (p<0.05). The moisture content of semi-dried jerky containing various sugar alcohols was significantly higher than that of the control (p<0.05), while replacing sucrose with glycerol yielded the highest moisture content. The shear force of semi-dried jerky containing sugar alcohols was not significantly different for the sorbitol and glycerol treatments, but that replacing sucrose with 5.0% xylitol demonstrated the lowest shear force (p<0.05). The TBARS values of semi-dried jerkies with sugar alcohols were lower than the control (p<0.05). The sugar content of the semi-dried jerkies containing sorbitol and glycerol were lower than the control and xylitol treatment (p<0.05). In comparison with the control, the 5.0% xylitol treatment was found to be significantly different in the sensory evaluation (p<0.05). In conclusion, semi-dried jerky made by replacement with sugar alcohols improved the quality characteristics, while xylitol has applicability in manufacturing meat products.

This study investigated the quality, sensory characteristics, and commercialization potential of a rice snack made from dried anchovy Engraulis japonicus. Mild and spicy snacks were produced using a single extruder, with an oil coating or seasoning, respectively. The approximate respective compositions of the mild and spicy snacks were as follows: moisture 5.20% and 4.71%; crude protein 8.71% and 8.59%: crude lipids 21.14% and 28.5%; ash 1.57% and 1.82%; salt 1.5% and 1.5%; water activity 0.18 and 0.19; and pH 6.31 and 6.28. The peroxide values increased for 30 days after preparation and then decreased from 30 to 90 days. The thiobarbituric acid values increased slightly during storage at $27{\pm}2^{\circ}C$. During storage at $27{\pm}2^{\circ}C$, the lightness and yellowness values were lower for the spicy snack than for the mild snack, while the redness value was higher for the spicy snack. The hardness values of both samples decreased slightly during storage at $27{\pm}2^{\circ}C$. The sensory score of the spicy snack was slightly higher than that of the mild snack. The spicy snack had a higher score than the mild snack in the sensory test, which suggested that the spicy snack made from dried anchovy has more commercial potential.

Investigations on the microbiological, physicochemical, and sensory characteristics of seasoned Galbi using various packaging methods during storage at $-1^{\circ}C$ revealed no significant differences in pH values and acidities of seasoned Galbi depending on packaging methods and storage periods. Increments of thiobarbituric acid values of seasoned Galbi with non-evacuated packaging and modified atmosphere packaging were superior to those of vacuum packaging and double-film vacuum packaging during storage. Seasoned Galbi with non-evacuated packaging showed the highest volatile basic nitrogen value, and total plate count significantly increased compared to other packaging methods after 15 days storage. Coliform bacteria showed an average count of 2.35 log CFU/g at the beginning of storage, which increased slightly from 7 to 15 days, and was maintained under 4.0 log CFU/g after 15 days storage. The sensory evaluation revealed that non-evacuated packaging scored relatively lower than other methods in color, flavor, off-odor, and overall acceptability after storage.

The present study was conducted to investigate effect of powdered herb of Aster scaber Thunb. (chamchwi) on antioxidant system in ethanol-administrated rats. Four week-old Sprague Dawley male rats which had initial body weights of 97.10$\pm$4.50 g were randomly divided into three groups: control (ethanol treated, vitamin E-deficient group); 5% chamchwi (ethanol-treated, 5% chamchwi powder-supplemented group): 10% chamchwi (ethanol-treated, 10% chamchwi powder-suplemented group). Three groups of rats were suplemented with three experimental diets for 4 weeks and orally administrated 10% ethanol (v/v) daily via drinking water in the last experimental week. Contents of TBARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive substance). glutathione in liver and kidney and serum albumin were determined. The activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-px) in liver and kidney were also analyzed. Relative weight of liver and spleen to body in chamchwi groups was lower than that in control group (p<0.05). The most remarkable result was that liver TBARS contents in chamchwi groups (5% chamchwi group, 46 $\mu\textrm{g}$ in MDA value; 10% chamchwi group, 35 $\mu\textrm{g}$) were significantly lower (p<0.05) than that in control group (66 $\mu\textrm{g}$). The supplement of chamchwi powder lowered the activity of manganese- superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD), catalase in liver and GSH-px in kidney. The levels of glutathione in liver and kidney and serum albumin were not significantly different in all experimental groups (p<0.05). These results indicate that powdered herb of Aster scaber decreases lipid peroxidation and acitvity of Mn-SOD increased by alcohol-induced oxidative stress in liver of rats.

This study was carried to investigate effects of gamma irradiation on the moisture, crude protein, crude lipid, 2-thiobarbituric acid (TBA) values, color stability, texture, and sensory properties of restructured pork jerky. Restructured pork jerky was irradiated at dose levels of 0, 3, 5, 7 and 10 kGy with a use Co-60 source. There were no significant differences in the moisture, crude protein, crude lipid contents, and TBA values. However, as doses of gamma irradiation increased, the redness (a-value) of restructure pork jerky increased whereas shear force of restructure pork jerky was decreased by gamma irradiation. Sensory evaluation showed that sensory scores were reduced by gamma irradiation. Therefore, gamma irradiation could be an effective means to improve color and texture of restructured pork jerky, but only with proper consideration for sensory quality.
