As a trial to expand the use of oligosaccharide, tomato jams were made with various kinds and addition rate levels of oligosaccharide and their quality characteristics were evaluated by instrumental analyses and sensory evaluation. As the addition rate of oligosaccharides increased, 1. the sweetness of tomato jams decreased compared to those of control containing sugar, 2. the lightness and yellowness were increased, however, the redness was decreased, 3. the hardness and adhesiveness of tomato jams containing liquid type oligosacchairdes were lower and those of powder type were higher than control. The springiness of the samples containing oligosaccharide was lower than that of control, however, there was no significant difference in cohesiveness. In sensory evaluation, tomato jams containing oligosaccharides were generally similar or better than control. Color, viscosity, flavor and overall acceptability of the samples containing powder type oligosaccharide were higher than those of liquid type. Tomato jams containing 15% powder type oligosaccharide and 35% sugar showed the highest overall acceptability.

Quality characteristics of tomato jam added with 15, 25, 35 and 50% fructo-oligosaccharide substituted for sucrose were evaluated. As the amount of fructo-oligosaccharide increased, the moisture content and total titratable acidity of tomato jam increased, whereas pH and spreadness decreased. In the results of color and texture analysis, lightness ($L^*$), redness ($a^*$) and yellowness ($b^*$) in addition to adhesiveness and resilience increased when fructo-oligosaccharide was added up to 50% of the total tomato weight. In the sensory evaluation, values of flavor, transparency, sweetness, and off-flavor decreased as fructo-oligosaccharide content increased, whereas tomato flavor, sourness and stickiness increased. Overall acceptance of tomato jam added with 25~35% fructo-oligosaccharide was the highest among all of the samples.

These experiments focused on processing low sugar fig jam having marketability by selected substitute for extracted and purified pectinesterase (PE), colorant for colour improvement, food additive to make texture better, and stabilizer for stable storage. Cherry tomato pulp as PE substitute to hydrolyze pectin substance in fig pulp into low-methoxyl pectin was most effective among used vegetables and fruits pulp. Carmacid-R among natural colorants for imprving colour, addition of 20% starch syrup as sugar substitute for texture and addition of $MULTIPHOSE^{TM}$ for red colour change control at cold storage were effective. The low sugar fig jam processed by using the above selected materials showed higher score than others (typical jam and orange PE low sugar fig jam) for colour in sensory evaluation and did no significant difference in taste, odor, texture and overall acceptability.

A processing factor (PF) has been used to define the maximum residue limits of pesticide in a variety of processed fruit products. This study summarizes PF by the stage of fruit processing based on JMPR reports from 2010 to 2014. When we compared PF of 19 pesticides in apple products during the processing of washing, drying, canning, juice, sauce, puree and pomace, PF was higher than 1 only in pomace. In the comparison of 21 pesticides during the process of grape (washing, juice, wine and raisin), PF was higher than 1 in raisin. In the comparison of 19 pesticides during the process of orange (juice, oil and marmalade), PF was higher than 1 in oil. When 27 pesticides were compared during the process of tomato (juice, puree and paste), paste showed the highest PF value except pomace. During the process of plum (washing, drying and puree) with 12 pesticides, PF was higher than 1 in drying. The correlation coefficients between physical characteristics of pesticide (fat-solubility and volatility) and PF were statistically significant in the processes of apple juice, orange juice, tomato puree and paste and strawberry jam.
