This study was conducted to investigate change in the quality of white pan bread as affected by various concentrations of Corni fructus powder. Breads were prepared by addition of 0, 1, 2 and 3% of Corni fructus to wheat flour of basic formulation. The moisture content of white pan bread was approximately $37.5{\sim}41.1%$ and decreased with increasing Corni fructus powder concentration. The pH of white pan bread also decreased with increasing Corni fructus powder concentration. In color values, with increase of Corni fructus powder concentration, L, a value decreased and a value increased in the crumb. The weights of bread cooled for 0, 1 hour and 3 hour after baking decreased with increasing Corni fructus powder concentration. The volume and height of dough increased with increasing Corni fructus powder concentration. However, no significant differences in the specific volume and yield of dough were found. The baking loss rate was higher in the breads with Corni fructus powder than in the control. In the texture characteristics, hardness, gumminess and chewiness of bread significantly decreased with increasing Corni fructus powder concentration and adhesiveness, cohesiveness increased. In the sensory evaluation, when compared to the control, the bread added to 1% of Corni fructus powder was superior texture and taste and flavor, while was similar to color.

One hundred fifty one specimens of Beauveria spp. from 19 different locations were collected from September 1 to August 31, 2002. Most of the isolates were identified as Beauveria. bassiana. Cordyceps staphylinidaecola collected from Mt. Obong in Chunchon City covered the host with mycelia which were produced 1 to 4 stromata along with asexual spores. The size of bright yellow ununiform stromata were about 45 mm and the head about $17mm{\times}4mm$. Perithecia completely immersed were $530{\sim}550{\times}290{\sim}300{\mu}m$ in size and mainly scattered on the head. Ascospore produced in asci in the size of $400{\sim}450{\times}4{\sim}5{\mu}m$ developed thread-like secondary spores, which were directly separated into secondary conidial spores. Conidia produced at apical portion of synnemata were $2.6{\sim}3.4{\times}1.2{\sim}1.9{\mu}m$ in size. High density of mycelium was observed at $25^{\circ}C$ ranged from pH 6.5 to 8.5 after 11 days of inoculation. It took 15 to 18 days after inoculation to fully grow on the medium mixed brown rice with pupa. Mycelium developed stromata on the medium 30 days after completion of mycelial growth, where perithecia were produced in 40 days.

To examine the quality changes of tomato and plum fruits during storage under various storage conditions, the rate of weight loss, pH change, titratable acidity, Hunter a value, firmness, and anthocyanin content were determined during storage. Tomato and plum fruits were stored at 4$^{\circ}C$ and 25$^{\circ}C$. Tomato fruits were packaged with high density polyethylene film (HDPE) and polyvinylidene chloride film (PVDC), and plum fruits were packaged with HDPE. Tomato fruits packaged with PVDC and plum fruits packaged with HDPE at 4$^{\circ}C$ were the most desirable in terms of weight loss. Titratable acidity of tomato fruits decreased with increasing storage time regardless of temperature and packaging method. Hunter a value of tomato fruits stored at 25$^{\circ}C$ increased regardless of packaging method, while it was not changed for tomato fruits stored at 4$^{\circ}C$. Firmness of plum fruits stored at 25$^{\circ}C$ significantly decreased during storage and anthocyanin content increased. Microbial numbers of tomato fruits increased during storage, but its rate was retarded during storage when tomato fruits were packaged with HDPE and stored at 4$^{\circ}C$. These results suggest that cold chain system and appropriate packaging could maintain the quality and prolong the shelf life of fresh produce.

Physicochemical properties of five commercial rice products were investigated in order to select the appropriate rice varieties for the preparation of frozen fried rice. Among the evaluated rice varieties, Onnuri (16.06%) had the highest amylose content, while Beakjinju (11.83%) had the lowest. The water absorption index ranged from 1.45 to 1.65 g/g. Regarding the Hunter's color values, the L and a values of all rice varieties decreased while the b value increased with freezing-storage following the cooking process. The initial pasting temperature showed no significant differences among the five rice varieties. The highest viscosity (peak, trough, and final) and setback were found in the Sindongjin, while the lowest breakdown was found in the Baekjinju variety. Hardness, chewiness, and cohesiveness of all five cooked rice varieties decreased while their adhesiveness increased after freezing-storage. Under electron microscopy scanning, pores were observed inside the tissue of frozen cooked rices manufactured from Baekjinju and Hopum varieties, while substantially smooth tissue structure was observed in Sindognjin, Onnuri, and Ilmi rice varieties.

The quality characteristics of yenipsambab prepared using various amounts of red, green, and black pigmented rice (0, 10, 20, and 30% added) were investigated. The pH of the cooked rice of yenipsambab decreased significantly as the amounts of pigmented rice increased. The Hunter's color L value decreased, but the b value increased with increasing amounts of pigmented rice. Moreover, the addition of 10-30% pigmented rice resulted in increased hardness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, springiness, chewiness, and brittleness compared to the control. Finally, the results of the sensory evaluation and acceptance test showed that the cooked rice containing 10-20% pigmented rice had the highest scores. This study will help in the development of new rice products that are good for the health.

The quality and sensory characteristics of tofu were investigated with various levels of black garlic extract (BE) added to it in 0, 1, 3, 5 and 7%-weight soymilk, before it was coagulated with $MgCl_2$ (MC, BEM-A, BEM-B, BEM-C and BEM-D) and concentrated to $8^{\circ}Brix$ deep ground sea-like water (SC, BES-A, BES-B, BES-C and BES-D). The overall acceptability of the tofu samples was higher (SC > BES-A > BEM-A) than that of the other samples. The addition of BE was influenced by the color, flavor and taste of the tofu, and the more BE was added, the tougher the tofu became. The tofu yield with various amounts of black garlic extract did not significantly differ among the samples. The pH range was 5.61~6.15 and decreased as more BE was added, whereas the turbidity increased. Also, the L value of the tofu decreased as more BE was added. The a value showed a tendency opposite that of the L value. The b value did not significantly differ among the samples. The texture profile analysis of the tofus showed that the hardness, chewiness, and gumminess significantly increased as more BE was added. In conclusion, it was found that the addition of 1% BE will improve the quality and sensory characteristics of tofu.

This study was carried out to investigate the morbidity of fatty liver in cattle at the abattoir and on the farm, and to cytodiagnose fatty liver in cattle by fine needle aspiration biopsy. Incidence rates of fatty liver in cattle, detected macroscopically or based on hepatic lipid content by buoyancy, were 0.30% in Korean native cows, 4.70% in dairy cows, and 0.15% in dairy bull. Fatty liver was enlarged, swollen with round edges, light weight, and pale to yellow-orange color, but its color was not always correlated to the severity of fatty liver. The findings of fat infiltration of the hepatic lobule were large droplets around central vein, fine droplets in the periphery, and fat infiltration in the perivascular region execpt for most of normal liver and severe fatty liver. The sensitivty, specificity, and accuracy of cytological finding compared with hepatic lipid content by buoyancy were 94.4%, 95.2%, and 94.9% in normal cases, 64.3%, 100%, and 87.2% in mild cases, 100%, 83.3%, and 87.2% in moderate cases, and 100%, 100%, and 100% in sesvere cases, respectively. Cytological findings were well correlated with histological findings. Complications of fine needle aspiration biopsy were not recognized clinically. Consequently, the cytodiagnosis by fine needle aspiration biopsy is simple, rapid, safe, and economical method compared with histological techniques in the diagnosis of fatty liver in cattle.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of ingredients(spices and medicinal plants) on the physicochemical properties of Pyunyuk a Korean style-cooked pork. Pyunyuk samples were prepared by the following 5 cooking conditions: Control(pork, water), A(pork, water, soy sauce), B(pork, water, soy sauce, onion, ginger), C(pork, water, soy sauce, onion, ginger, licorice, cinnamon) and D(pork, water, soy sauce, onion, ginger, licorice, cinnamon, clove and chestunt inner skin(CIS). The contents of ash, crude protein in loin and shank Pyunyuk were not significantly different among Pyunyuk samples, but crude fat content of C, D were significantly lower than control, A and B(p＜0.05). In Hunter’s color values of Pyunyuk, the lightness(L) was decreased by the addition of multiple ingredients, whereas the redness was increased. In mechanical characteristics, the hardness of control was the highest among the samples(p ＜0.05). In sensory evaluation, sample D obtained the highest score in flavor, taste, hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess and overall acceptability(p<0.05), and it was most preferred by the panels. There were higher negative-correlations between mechanical hardness and sensory characteristics of flavor, taste, cohesiveness, gumminess, brittleness and overall acceptability. From these results, it could be concluded that Pyunyuk ingredients(herbs and medicinal plants) reduce the content of crude fat, increase the tenderness and improve the flavor and taste of pork during cooking.

This study evaluated the effects of adding blood levels to phycochemical properties, textural properties, and sensory characteristics of blood sausage. 4 treatment groups of blood sausage were produced, T1 (pork ham : pork blood = 60:15), T2 (55:20), T3 (50:25), and T4 (45:30). T1 had the highest moisture content, most cohesiveness, and gumminess, CIE L-value, CIE a-value, and CIE b-value of raw and cooked blood sausages. Protein content, fat content, ash content, and VBN values were not significantly different among the treatments. T4 was treated with the most added pork blood, and had the highest pH of raw and cooked blood sausages, cooking loss, and TBA values. T2's sausage was the hardest, but had more springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness than T4. The best scores were from T4 and had the most overall acceptability. The results of this study show that blood sausages containing 20% pork blood had higher improved quality characteristics in blood sausages.
