The objectives of this study were to evaluate the sensory characteristic quality of commercial milk brands selling in the market under the preservation at the temperature of $7^{\circ}C$ and $10^{\circ}C$ stored during the period of shelf-life. Quantitative descriptive analysis after developing of descriptive terms and cluster characterization by PCA analysis over a total of 128 LTLT, HTST, UHT and UHT-ESL milks, were conducted by 8 trained panelists. A total of fourteen attributes; three aroma attributes (grassy, milky, cultured milk aroma) and seven flavor/taste attributes (sweet, salty, sour, milk, cooked, cheesy, paper board) and one aftertaste attributes (rancid flavor) and one texture attributes (viscous), were developed as descriptive terms. Significant differences (P<0.01) in the sensory attributes; sweet, milky, cheesy etc. in UHT milk and sour, cheesy, paper board, rancid etc. in UHT-ESL milk were also found between the two different temperatures within the shelf life, but both type of pasteurized milk samples (LTLT and HTST) showed significant differences (P<0.01) in the attributes, such as cultured milk aroma, salty, sour, cheesy, rancid in LTLT milk and grassy, milky, salty in HTST milk and difference (P<0.05) in cultured milk aroma for HTST milk. Therefore, from the viewpoint of not only hygienic quality but also sensory characteristics, it is required for the better acceptance of milk consumers to amendment on the regulation in relation to the preservation standard of pasteurized milk as well as UHT milk to lower than $7^{\circ}C$.

This study was carried out to evaluate the feasibility of using domestic wheat flour as ingredient of pizza dough by examining the physicochemical and sensory properties of the dough. Five pizza dough samples were prepared with different ratio of domestic and imported wheat flour. Significant differences were observed in crude protein content, crude ash content, and color of the pizza dough samples; however, no significant difference was found in mechanically measured rheology. A sensory evaluation based on 23 descriptive attributes indicated significant differences between pizza dough made from domestic wheat flour and that made from imported wheat flour for springiness and softness of the surface, roughness, and chewiness (p<0.05). Principal component analysis showed that the greater amount of Korean wheat flour in the dough resulted in different values from negative to positive ends of principal component 1 (37.4%).

The roasting condition and organoleptic characteristics in Cassia tora tea were investigated. Intact Cassia tora seeds were composed of water 11.6%, crude protein 13.1%, crude fat 4.4%, crude fiber 13.8%, N-free extract 47.2% and ash 4.9%. Organoleptic qualities in Cassia tora tea were sweetness, astringency, tartness, bitterness, roasted coffee like, roasted barley like and burnt smell. Organoleptic qualities were investigated by descriptive analysis method, too. Overall acceptability was increased by roasting but it was low because of formation of bitterness and burnt smell at excessive roasting conditions. Sweetness was the most important factor in organoleptic quality of Cassia tora seeds and the optimum condition for the best quality was $210^{\circ}C$, 20 minutes.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the physiochemical properties of blackberry fruit beverage(BFB) and to develop a descriptive analysis procedure for evaluating the sensory characteristics of BFB. The amount of soluble solid, free sugar, pH, acidity, chromaticity, flavonoid, and anthocyanin of BFB were determined. All BFB samples demonstrated significantly different physicochemical properties(p<.01). Ten highly trained panelists identified the following eleven sensory attributes in the BFB and defined by standardized terminology for each attribute; turbidity, chromaticity for appearance characteristics, berry, grass, fermented, sweet, astringent, and sour for flavor characteristics, throat hit, refreshing, as well as astringent grade for textural characteristics. There were significant differences in all the eleven sensory attributes of the BFB samples(p<.001). Descriptive terminology used in the BFB analysis was capable of classifying the sensory attributes of the BFB. Based on these results, the analysis method and sensory evaluation techniques used in this study could be reasonably applied to other fruit beverages for establishing similar physiochemical characteristic and descriptive sensory attributes.

This study was performed to identify sensory characteristics of the Korean traditional cookie Yakgwa prepared by partially replacing wheat flour with glutinous rice flour as well as to conduct cross-cultural comparison of the sensory descriptions of the Yakgwa sample set between Korea and Chinese panelists. Korean and Chinese highly trained panelists identified 22 sensory attributes by descriptive analysis. The addition of glutinous rice flour decreased soybean oil odor, moistness, oiliness and increased hardness, crispness of the Yakgwa samples. In the consumer test, consumers from Korea (n=89) and China (n=56) participated. Yakgwa with 50% glutinous rice flour had a significantly higher overall acceptability than other the Yakgwa samples by Korean and Chinese consumers.

This study was conducted to analyze sensory profiles of commercial sojues using a standardized sensory evaluation procedure, and to investigate the effects of sensory characteristics and brands on consumer liking for soju. Descriptive analysis and consumer taste testing were conducted for seven commercial sojues. For the descriptive analysis, eight panelists generated and evaluated 12 flavor and one pain-sensation attributes for the soju, and there were significant differences among the soju samples for all the 13 sensory attributes. For the descriptive data, principal component analysis was performed to summarize the sensory characteristics of the sojues. For the consumer testing, 224 soju drinkers (20-29 year-olds) were recruited and randomly divided into two groups; a blind group and a group with the knowledge of brand. While the hedonic ratings obtained from the blind group didn't indicate significant differences among the sojues, the ratings obtained from the brand-informed group showed significant differences. Finally, the individual preferences of the 112 consumers in each group were investigated by preference mapping techniques.

This study was conducted to analyze the sensory profiles of commercial rice cookies and snacks in the market and to provide fundamental data on the development of rice cookies and snacks. The sensory characteristics of 10 kinds of Korean commercial rice cookies and snacks were evaluated using a sensory test and were analyzed via quantitative description analysis (QDA) and principal component analysis (PCA), depending on their rice contents and processing methods. The rice cookies and snacks with less than 30% rice contents and that were fried were preferred, and their grainy attribute was related to the preference for them. Then 27 kinds of commercial rice cookies and snacks from three countries, Japan, the U.S.A. and China, were also evaluated and compared with those from Korea. While the Korean commercial rice cookies and snacks were sweet, grainy and crispy, those of Japan were not sweet and instead, were salty and crispy.

The sensory quality characteristics of 5 different types of traditional Korean cookies, i.e. Yackwa, Gangjung, Sanja, Dasik and Yutgangjung were investigated. A total of 77 questionnaires were collected and over 90 different terms describing the sensory characteristics of Hankwa were appeared, among which 58 terms were explained in Korean Dictionary. The important quality characteristic of Korean cookies were identified from the frequency of the appearance of sensory describing terms. The cookies were stored at room temperature for 10 days in various relative humidity of $0{\sim}68%$, and the changes in the quality characteristics were examined organolleptically by scalar scoring test. The changes in overall acceptance were evaluated by hedonic test. The results were shown by quantitative descriptive analysis(QDA) diagram The QDA diagram could visualize the effects of storage relative humidity on the sensory quality profile of the cookies.

This study investigated the sensory attributes of Satsuma mandarins to provide basic data for the establishment of a quality grade establishment of mandarins. Samples of the mandarins in different sizes (small, medium, and large) were collected via organic green house cultivation, conventional cultivation without pesticides and conventional cultivation in Jeju Island. Eight trained panels performed the triplicate measurements. From the results of the quantitative descriptive analysis, mandarin samples were selected with five types of appearances (gloss intensity, color intensity, peel width, damage degree, and peel texture), three types of odors (sour, sweet, fresh), six types of tastes (sour, sweet, bitter, fresh, tasteless, and off flavor) four types of texture (hardness, granule toughness, juicy, and tough feel), and three types of after-tastes (sour, sweet, and bitter). The results of the analysis of the quality characteristics of the samples showed that their, pH, total acidity and solids contents differed depending on the size of the samples more than their cultivation methods. The correlation coefficients between the quality properties of the mandarins showed that their, sample size was positively correlated with their peel width and toughness. Moreover, the soluble solid of sample was positively correlated with its color intensity, sweet and fresh orange flavor. However, soluble solid content of the samples was negatively coreelated with their bitter flavor, tastelessness, and off flavor. In the principal component analysis of the sensory attributes data, PC1 represented the soluble solid, gross intensity, orange color, sour and sweet odor, unique mandarin flavor (sweet and, fresh orange), etc., and PC2 (26.77%) the size, pH, sample acidity, and peel texture.
