The hydrolysis conditions (enzym $e_strate ratio, time and temperature) of the mixture of anchovy sauce residue (ASR) and soy sauce residue (SSR) after fermentation by Flavourzyme 500M $G^{TM}$ were optimized using response surface methodology (RSM) for pretreatment of processing functional enzyme-hydrolyzed sauce. A model equation obtained from RSM was hydrolysis ratio (%) = 28.157+1.929enzym $e_strate ratio+1.818time+2.038temperature-1.093temperatur $e^2$, whose stationary point showed saddle point. From the ridge analysis of the saddle point, the conditions producing the highest hydrolysis ratio was determined as follows: 0.49% enzym $e_strate ratio; 3.55hr hydrolysis time; 62.5$^{\circ}C$ hydrolysis temperature. Adding of SSR to the mixture of water and ASR improved sensory qualities of mixture, so it seemed that SSR has masking effects on off-flavor and taste of ASR.R.of ASR.R.

To improve the food quality of traditional Jeung-pyun(Korean fermenfed rice cake), effect of mixed ingredients on the quality of protein enriched product was studied. Changes were evaluated in chemical and textural properties of protein enriched Jeung-pyun altered by fermentation time, temperature, and steaming time. The maximum volume wxpansion was noted in dough mixed with rice flour(100 g), soy flour(25 g), sucrose(20 g), Tak-ju(50 ml) and water(10 ml), and then fermented at $35^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours. Soy protein isolate(SPI) enriched rice dough had a maximum expanded volume when 15g(w/w) of SPI, 20g(w/w) of sucrose, 60ml(v/w) of Tak-ju and 50ml(v/w) of water added into 100g rice flour, and then fermented at $30^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours. Steaming after fermentation made the smaller volume of bulk $45^{\circ}C$-50% of the initial volume be showed just after fermentation. Protein enriched Jeung-pyun prepared under the maximal volume endowing conditions showed the best protein quality(protein digestibility and protein efficiency ratio) and starch structure which was susceptible towards enzyme reaction. The improved starch quality of protein enriched Jeung-pyun could be confirmed by reducing power, gelatinization degree and amylose content. Jeung-pyun riched with soy flour at 20% level or with SPI at 5% showed the best overall quality by sensory and textural property but it had a problem in browning.

Changes of paralytic shellfish poison (PSP) contents, toxicity and toxin composition with pH and storing periods at different temperature in toxic blue mussel, Mytilus edulis, were tested by using fluorometric HPLC method. Toxicity at pH 3 was the highest as 14.1 MU/g $(100\%)$ and showed 12.9 MU/g $(92.1\%)$ at pH 5, 9.0 MU/g $(63.8\%)$ at pH 7, 3.6 MU/g $(25.5\%)$ at pH 9 and 0.8 MU/g $(5.7\%)$ at pH 10 which suggested PSP was unstable at alkaline conditions. The decrease in toxicity during storage days was depend on pH and temperature. The toxicity markedly decreased until during the first S day storage $(19.9\~65.3\%)$ at all pH (3, 5, 7, 9) and temperature (30, 5, $-20^{\circ}C$), but, slightly decreased after then till to 30 days. C group toxin (C1 and C2) was the major components and other toxins such as GTX 1,2,3,4, STX and dcSTX were detected. Among the 8 toxins, GTX1,4, dcSTX and STX were firstly decreased according to the decreasing the toxicity at all processing conditions. The toxicity in blue mussel (14.1 MU/g) were able to remove by heating over 10 minutes at pH higher than 7.

Cell cracking method using a non-collision was evaluated for the possibility of new red ginseng grinding technique. Based on particle size distribution analysis by 1size shaker, the ratios of 100 mesh penetrated particles were 94.9% for hammer mill (group A) and 95.6% for cell crack (group B). The ratio of 120 mesh penetrated particle of group A was higher than that in group B. The particle size distributions for 100 mesh non-penetrated Powder between 2 groups were not significantly different, and particle size distribution analysis by laser scattering analyzer showed that the particle size ranges were 0.77~128.07 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ for group A and 4.24~180.07 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ for group B. The Particle size distribution in group A was more broad than that in group B. The mean particle size in group B was larger than that in group A, while the standard deviation of particle size distribution in group B was less than that in group A. Structural surface characteristics, in group A, particle size distribution was broad and the distribution curve was amorphous. The structure of individual particles was similar to unequal stone which was roughly grinded and had soft cotton-like surface. In the contrary, in group B, particle size distribution was relatively narrow and also individual size particles were ubiquitously distributed. The structure of individual particles was unequal cut stone shape.

This study was conducted to examine the quality characteristics of canned kimchi prepared by minimal thermal processing. Korean cabbage kimchi was fermented at $20^{\circ}C$ for several days up to acidity $0.5{\pm}0.1%$, was packaged in cylindrical can of 115 mL and pasteurized at low temperature. Thermal processing times based on $F_{60}$ value at geometrical center of the can were determined as 23.1, 17.7 and 12.7 min at 65, 70 and $80^{\circ}C$, respectively. The quality changes of the processed kimchi were measured during storage at $20^{\circ}C$. The pH of pasteurized kimchi was higher than that of unpasteurized control. The number of lactic acid bacteria was reduced to about $10^{2}{\sim}10^{3}$ (CFU/mL). The pasteurized kimchi product showed better texture and color values compared to the control, while resulting in the lower carotenoid and ascorbic acid contents. Kimchi preparation by minimal thermal processing had a positive effect for reduction of sour taste and sour flavor in sensory quality, but gave adverse effect in acceptability because of off-taste and off-flavor.

In order to improve the storage stability of steamed bread, fermented pine needle extract syrup potentially with several functional properties was added in manufacturing the products at levels of 8.3, 11 and 18% based on Brix degree of the dough. The manufactured bread was stored at ambient conditions and measured for quality attributes. Dough added with the fermented pine needle extract syrup maintained its pH and water activity at levels of $5.45{\sim}5.90\;and\;0.94{\sim}0.96$, which are normally suitable for yeast fermentation and for appropriate dough hardness. Addition of the extract syrup increased the bread volume by more than 20%. The bread with higher content of the pine needle extract syrup showed slower increase of bread hardness during storage, suggesting retardation of bread retrogradation. The addition of the pine needle extract syrup in bread dough also inhibited growth of the aerobic bacteria and molds on the bread surface (by $0.8{\sim}24$ in log (CFU/g) at 4 day storage). Use of higher than 11% concentration presented initially a strong fine needle flavor to the bread, which disappeared soon after 2 days. Generally addition of the pine needle extract syrup did not give negative effects on the bread quality including sensory quality. Therefore, the addition of the needle extract syrup could contribute to improving the storage stability and extending the shelf life of the bread.

The enzymatic hydrolysate of skipjack tuna cooking drip with good functionality was prepared by incubation with Alcalase for 30 min. For the preparation of functional seasoning sauce with enzymatic hydrolysate (SSE), the additives, such as concentrated enzymatic hydrolysate (100 mL), yeast extract powder (0.7 g), lactose (0.4 mL), liquid smoke (0.3 g) and sea tangle powder (1.4 g), were added to the enzymatic hydrolysate and boiled before filtration. The proximate composition of SSE was 11.8% for crude protein, 5.77 for pH and 11.9% for salinity. The SSE was higher in the crude protein, while lower in the salinity than commercial seasoning sauce. ACE inhibitory activity ($IC_{50}$) and antioxidative activity (PF) of SSE were 6.2 mg/mL and 1.14, respectively, which were superior to those (9.9 mg/mL in IC50 and 0.91 in PF) of commercial seasoning sauce. The free amino acid content (1,905.2 mg/100 mL) and taste value (58.65) of SSE were higher than in those (712.7 mg/100 mL and 34.30, respectively) of commercial sauce. Total amino acid content of SSE (10,965 mg/100 mL) was higher than that (4,818 mg/100 mL) of commercial sauce. The major amino acids of SSE were glutamic acid (12.2%), proline (11.0%), histidine (10.7%) and glycine (9.9%). The results suggested that SSE could be commercially sold.
