A systematic comparison of the physicochemical properties of white ginseng (WG), extruded white ginseng (EWG), red ginseng (RG), and extruded red ginseng (ERG) was performed. The aim of the present study was to identify the effects of the physicochemical properties of ginseng by extrusion cooking. The highest value of the water absorption index (WAI) was 3.64 g/g obtained from EWG, and the highest value of the water solubility index (WSI) was 45.27% obtained from ERG. The ERG had a better dispersibility compared with other samples. Extrusion cooking led to a significant increase in acidic polysaccharide and total sugar content but resulted in a decrease in crude fat and reducing sugar contents. Enzyme treatment led to a sharp increase in acidic polysaccharide content, especially the cellulose enzyme. Extrusion cooking led to a significant increase in 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity and reducing power, and the increases in WG and RG were 13.56% (0.038) and 3.56% (0.026), respectively. The data of this study provide valuable information about the effects of extrusion on quality changes of EWG and ERG.

Three oat cultivars and one oat breeding line were evaluated for chemical, hydration and pasting properties. Protein, starch and ${\beta}$-glucan levels ranged 11.13~14.37, 56.37~64.86 and 3.44~4.76%, respectively. The oat cultivars Daeyang and Seonyang contained higher ${\beta}$-glucan levels of 4.76 and 4.35%. The Daeyang variety had a higher water absorption index (WAI) of 2.83~3.35 (g/g), but a lower water solubility index (WSI) of 8.67~11.08%. Daeyang and Seonyang cultivars showed higher peak and trough viscosity, but lower breakdown and setback, indicating that they easily swell, and thus could possibly provide the desirable viscosity of an oat product. The ${\beta}$-glucan levels were correlated positively with WAI, peak and trough viscosity, and negatively to WSI, breakdown and setback viscosity.

The effects of variable moisture content, screw speed and barrel temperature on the physicochemical properties of red ginseng powder extrudates were investigated. The raw red ginseng powders were processed in a co-rotating intermeshing twin-screw extruder. Primary extrusion variables were feed moisture content (20 and 30%), screw speed (200 and 250 rpm) and barrel temperature (115 and $130^{\circ}C$). Extruded red ginseng showed higher crude saponin contents (6.72~7.18%) than raw red ginseng (5.50%). Tested extrusion conditions did not significantly affect the crude saponin content of extrudates. Increased feed moisture content resulted in increased bulk density, specific length, water absorption index (WAI), breaking strength, elastic modulus and crude protein content and decreased water solubility index (WSI) and expansion (p<0.05). Increased barrel temperature resulted in increased total sugar content, but decreased reducing sugar content in the extrudate (p<0.05). Furthermore, increased barrel temperature resulted in increased amino acid content and specific length and decreased expansion and bulk density of extrudates only at a higher feed moisture content. The physicochemical properties of extrudates were mainly dependent on the feed moisture content and barrel temperature, whereas the screw speed showed a lesser effect. These results will be used to help define optimized process conditions for controlling and predicting qualities and characteristics of extruded red ginseng.

Milling qualities and indigestible carbohydrate fractions (ICF) depending on harvesting time of Goami2 (G2), mutant of Ilpum (IP) rice, was examined. Fifty days after heading (DAH) maximized head rice milling quality (57.69%) and ICF content ($5.09{\pm}0.36\;g/100\;g$). ICF contents and physical properties of G2 and IP at 50 DAH were compared. ICF of G2 was three times higher than that of IP ($1.61{\pm}0.09\;g/100\;g$). Parboiling treatment increased ICF of G2 to $7.18{\pm}0.16\;g/100\;g$. G2 showed lower water absorption index, which could lower pasting properties, but higher water solubility index, implying it contains more soluble components. Texture properties of G2 were different from those of IP, showing higher hardness, and lower adhesiveness and cohesiveness. Positive correlation was observed between ICF and hardness, but reverse correlation between ICF and cohesiveness.

This study investigated both the chemical and antioxidative characteristics of wheat flour added with 10, 20 and 30% immature chalssalbori flour; further, the quality characteristics of bread dough during yeast fermentation were assessed. As the addition rate of chalssalbori flour into wheat flour increased, the DPPH radical scavenging capacity, water absorption index, water solubility index and viscosity were all increased. Moreover, the bread dough with an increased addition rate of chalssalbori flour demonstrated an increased pH, reduced fermentative expansion power and a darker yellowish color. The bread dough added with chalssalbori flour after mixing showed higher hardness, gumminess and adhesiveness, but lower cohesiveness and springiness compared to the control; however, these texture characteristics were changed during fermentation. In the present study, the mixed flour with 10% immature chalssalbori flour conveyed similar pasting characteristics to those of wheat flour; moreover, its bread dough showed higher springiness and fermentative expansion power. Furthermore, a delay effect of starch retrogradation can be expected compared to the control.

The production of maltose utilizing swollen extrusion starch seems to have many technical advantages, such as, high reaction rate and high yield, production of high purity concentrated maltose, and low energy consumption, over the conventional method utilizing liquefied starch. The characteristics of maltose formation in heterogeneous enzyme reaction system comtaining swollen extrusion starch was investigated using fungal $\alpha $-amylase. The influence of extrusion conditions on structure of extruded starch, such as, degree of gelatinization, water absorption index, and water solubility index was analyzed. The relationship between the structural features and maltose forming reaction was investigated, and the result was analyzed in terms of surface reaction of insoluble extruded swollen starch. The characteristics of maltose formation from swollen sxtrusion starch was compared using endo-type fungal $\alpha $-amylase and exo-type $\beta $anylase, and the structural trasformation of extruded starch was also observed to clarify the reaction mechanism.

Systematic study of how different drying methods, namely hot-air drying, vacuum-drying, and freeze-drying, affect color, browning index, degree of rehydration, water solubility, and vitamin C content is critical for utilizing pine needle powders (PNP) as a novel ingredient in functional foods. Samples prepared by vacuum-drying showed a significantly higher $L^*$-value, whereas higher $a^*$- and $b^*$-values were detected in the hot-air dried samples (P<0.05). The browning index was significantly higher in samples prepared by vacuum-drying compared to samples prepared by freeze-drying (P<0.05). Freeze-dried PNP exhibited a significantly higher degree of rehydration than hot-air dried samples (P<0.05). Water solubilities of freeze-dried and hot-air dried samples were significantly higher than that of vacuum-dried sample (P<0.05). Vitamin C was less destroyed during freeze-drying compared to hot-air or vacuum-drying (P<0.05). Freeze-dried samples displayed a clear porous structure and appeared to have a bigger space, whereas hot-air dried samples showed lower porosity than vacuum and freeze-dried samples.

This research was attempted to investigate changes in physicochemical properties of rice extrudate with added ginger powder extruded by single screw extruder. Graphic three dimensional analysis on response surface regression was used to evaluate effects of extrusion variables on quality factors of the extrudate according to two independent variables, ginger consent 0∼12%, moisture content 14∼26%. The summarized results are as follows : 1) Regarding proximate composition of rice extrudate with added ginger powder, as ginger powder content of raw material Increased, crude tat, crude protein, crude ash and crude fiber increased, while soluble nitrogen free extract decreased. 2) Graphic three dimensional analysis on response surface regression was conducted for each dependent variable which revealed statistically significant relationship with independent variables, 0∼120A ginger and 14∼26% moisture content. Expansion ratio had a critical point as moisture content changed. As ginger and moisture content Increased, bulk density, break strength and water absorption Index Increased, while water solubility Index decreased. The predicted maximum degree of gelatinization in 6.15% ginger and 15.56% moisture content is 88.27%, and lightness decreased as ginger content Increased. According to the microstructure for the cross section of extrudate obsorbed with image analyzer, air cell number and perimeter revealed saddle point, meanwhile total area and fractarea of air cell had critical points as moisture content changed. In view of the results, quality of rice extrudate with added ginger powder was optimum when rice flour was fed to the extruder with 2∼7% singer powder and 15∼20% moisture content.

최적화된 분자압축 탈수건조 생강에 열풍건조, 동결건조, 재사용 탈수액을 사용한 탈수건조 생강을 비교하여 품질평가를 실시하였다. 품질평가항목은 일반성분, 색도, 수분흡수지수(WAI) 및 수분용해지수(WSI), 총당, 환원당, DPPH 항산화활성 측정, gingerol 함량 측정을 통하여 생강의 품질을 비교하였다. 일반성분의 경우 분자압축 탈수 건조한 생강이 열풍건조 및 동결 건조한 생강보다는 낮았지만 이는 탈수액으로 성분이 용출되는 공정의 특성의 차이로 나타나는 현상이였다. 색도에서는 분자압축 탈수 건조한 생강이 다른 건조조건의 생강보다 원물의 상태의 색을 유지하였다. 수분흡수지수(WAI) 및 수분용해지수(WSI)에서는 열풍 건조된 시료가 수분흡수지수가 가장 높았고 분자압축 탈수 건조한 시료는 표면수분을 적용한 수분함량과 수분활성도에 비교하여 낮게 나타났다. 이 결과를 통하여 판단할 때 분자압축 탈수공정을 적용한 생강이 수분흡수지수(WAI)와 수분용해지수(WSI)에서 우수하다고 판단된다. 총당의 경우 유의적인 차이는 없었지만 분자압축 탈수 건조한 생강이 비교적 높았다. 환원당은 열풍 건조한 생강시료가 비교적 높았으며 이는 갈변에 영향을 미친다고 판단된다. DPPH를 통한 항산화활성 측정에서 BHA, BHT 보다 낮았지만 다른 건조방법 보다는 분자압축 탈수 건조한 생강이 항산화활성이 높았다. Gingerol 함량 측정은 건조방법에 따라한 건조한 분말을 측정하였으며 동결건조가 가장 우수하였다. 하지만 분자압축 탈수건조한 생강의 경우 다른 건조방법 보다는 낮았지만 탈수액에 형성되는 gingerol이 발생하기 때문에 활용가치와 기능성면에서 우수하다고 판단된다. 이 처럼 모든 품질평가 항목의 결과를 통하여 분자압축 탈수건조가 이전에 열풍건조와 동결건조보다 품질이 우수하고 시설과 가격에서 경쟁적으로 우수하며 활용가치와 기존의 건조방법의 단점을 보완해 주는 건조방법으로 판단이 되어진다.
