This study evaluated the microbial, nutritional, and rheological changes in potatoes, during storage at room, low, and freezing temperatures for 6 months. No significant changes in total aerobic plate counts were observed for any of the samples in the assessment of microbiological quality changes. For the 4 types of frozen potatoes, yeasts and molds were not found until 24 weeks. The sugar contents of the potatoes stored at room and low temperature ($10^{\circ}C$) increased during the first 4 weeks of storage, but then decreased rapidly thereafter; while those in the frozen potatoes did not change significantly throughout the 48 weeks. The vitamin C, B1, and B2 contents of the potatoes stored at room and low temperature had decreased significantly after 4 weeks of storage, however, the levels in the frozen potatoes did not change rapidly. The weight, volume, and hardness of the frozen potatoes changed much less as compared to the potatoes stored at room and low temperature over the 48 weeks of storage. Finally, the cohesiveness of all the samples, except for the frozen mashed potatoes, did not change during storage.

In an attempt to evaluate the effect of six starch sources-potato starch acetate, corn starch acetate, waxy corn starch, corn starch, potato starch, and wheat starch on properties of frozen noodle, amylograph characteristics of starch-wheat flour composites, cooking quality, maximum cutting force and sensory properties of cooked frozen noodles were examined. Compared with 100% wheat flour as control, potato starch acetate and potato starch-wheat flour composites had slightly lower initial pasting temperature and wheat flour composites with acetylated starches, waxy corn starch and potato starch had slightly higher maximum peak viscosity. At cooking quality examination of noodles made from wheat flour-starch composites, volume and weight of cooked noodles were increased and cook loss was decreased with the addition of acetylated starches and waxy corn starch. Maximum cutting forces of cooked frozen noodles containing more than 15% of potato starch acetate and only 15% of corn starch acetate were higher than that of control. Other starches except potato starch improved sensory properties of cooked frozen noodles and the greatest positive effect was acetated potato starch.

감자는 전세계 대부분의 국가에서 재배되고 있는 세계 4대 주곡 작물인 동시에 스낵류 시장에서도 중요한 부분을 차지하고 있다. 우리나라의 감자 가공산업은 1990년대 초부터 활기를 띠기 시작여하 현재 2,000억불의 매출을 달성하고 있다. 이중 우리나라 농민이 직접 생산한 감자를 원료로 사용하는 천연칩 감자 가공산업은 매출액을 기준으로 144억 (1997년)에서 700억 (2001년)으로 과거 10년 동안 괄목할 만한 성장을 하였다. 우리나라의 연간 감자 칩 원료용 가공용 감자 소요량은 총 51,600톤 (2002 년)으로 그중 40,600톤은 국내생산량으로 충당하고 나머지는 냉동감자를 수입하여 처리하고 있다. 가공원료용 감자는 괴경의 크기나 모양과 같은 외부품질과 환원당이나 고형분 함량과 같은 내부품질이 좋아야 한다. 하지만 가공용 감자의 내·외부품질이 좋게 판정되어도 내부갈색반점이나 중심공동과 같은 괴경 생리장해가 발생하면 원료용 감자로서의 상품 가치가 상실된다. 국내 칩 가공원료용 감자는 봄재배에서는 약 5 ∼ 7 ％, 여름재배에서는 10 ∼ 15 ％의 괴경 생리장해가 발생되고 있다. 현재 위와 같은 생리장해는 가공공장에서 감자를 잘라서 골라내거나 감자 칩을 만든 후 제거하는 방법을 쓰고 있다. 이에 감자를 수확 후 감자칩으로 가공하기 전에 생리장해가 발생한 감자를 제거하여 생산 공정에서의 불필요한 가공을 줄일 수 있는 방법이 개발되어야 할 필요성이 증대되고 있다. 최근, 농산물의 비파괴적 품질 평가와 선별에 있어서 가장 실용적이고 성공적인 기술 중의 하나는 농산물의 광학적 성질을 이용한 전기-광학 기술이다. 그중 X-선과 같이 파장이 짧은 방사 에너지는 대부분의 농산물을 투과하여 내부의 질량 밀도의 변화와 상관관계를 갖는 품질 인자를 비파괴적으로 평가하는데 적합하나 아직 국내에선 X-선을 이용한 가공용 감자의 내부 결함특성에 대한 연구는 이뤄지지 않고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 가공용 감자의 내부결함 특성중 하나인 내부동공의 X-선에 의한 특성을 본 연구소에 있는 X-선 발생장비로 측정해 보고 비파괴적인 방법으로 실시간 가능성을 시험하였다. 감자는 수원 농산물 도매시장에서 2003년산 가공용 감자 (품종:선농)를 구매하여 사용하였다. 감자내 내부동공은 35 ∼ 40 kV와 5.25 mA값으로 발생된 X-선에 의해 잘 검출되는 것으로 나타나, 현장에서 충분히 활용가능 할 것으로 판단되었다. 금후, 실시간으로 내부동공을 검출할 수 있는 시스템을 개발할 계획이다.

This study was carried out to understand the effect of addition of potato search on the frozen dough. The characteristics of frozen dough were measured by the farinogram, the extensogram and the amylogram. The results of these measurements show that the dough added with starch has higher stability than the control. The physical and chemical change of the dough were measured in accordance with the period of the frozen storage. The dough added with starch showed smaller physical and chemical change than control, which means that the starch prevents the frozen dough from the deterioration during the frozen storage. It is supposed from this result that the starch protects the activity of yeast and the structure of gluten matrices from frozen damage. It is understood from this study that addition of potato starch into frozen dough improve the stability of the frozen dough.

The changes of the physico-chemical characteristics of potato and chicken frying oil with frying number were examined. The changes in temperatures of frying oil during the potato flying were greater than that during the chicken frying. The weight loss of potato during deep frying was about 21.9% and about 12.3% for chicken. The acid values and conjugated dienoic acid values of the potato and chicken frying oils increased with increased frying number. Their values were greater in the chicken frying oil than in the potato frying oil. The peroxide values of frying oil did not change regularly as frying number increased. But iodine values of the frying oils decreased with increased frying number. Linoleic acid content of the frying oil decreased, whereas oleic acid content increased with frying number.

Hydroxypropylated starches and acetylated starches were prepared by reaction of potato starch with propylene oxide and acetic anhydride, respectively and then degree of retrogradation and swelling power were investigated in different pHs and temperature. The extent of retrogradation determined by glucoamylase method during freeze-thaw treatment and storage in low temperature $(0{\sim}5^{\circ}C)$ showed that modified potato starches were slowly retrograded as the increase of degree of substitution. The order of the retrogradation tendencies in different pHs were pH 4>pH 6>pH 8>pH 10. Retrogradation of hydroxypropylated potato starches were less than that of acetylated potato starches. Swelling power of starches were influenced more by the temperature than by the pH. The order of the swelling power tendencies in different pHs were pH 10>pH 2>pH 8>pH 4>pH 6.

To compare the quality of genomic DNA extracted from potato for PCR detection, four different methods, such as silica-based membrane method, silica-coated bead method, STE solution treatment, and CTAB-phenol/chloroform method, were evaluated. Also, to remove an excessive carbohydrate from the potato, ${\alpha}$- and ${\beta}$-amylase were used individually and in combination. When used both silica-based membrane method and silica-coated bead method combined with enzymes, the genomic DNAs were extracted from the raw potato with high purity for PCR. However, the silica-coated head method combined with enzyme treatment was the most efficient for extraction of the genomic DNA from the frozen fried potatoes. When applied with STE solution, the highly purified DNA was extracted from the raw potatoes without enzyme treatment in adequate yield for PCR. In cases of processed potatoes, such as frozen-fried potato and fabricated potato chips, CTAB-phenol/chloroform method is mostly feasible for DNA extraction and PCR efficacy at high sensitivity. As the results of PCR amplification, 216bp of PCR product was detected on 2% agarose gel electrophoresis, but any amplicons derived from New leaf and New leaf Y gene was not detected in any sample.

5-Hydroxytryptamine(5-HT; serotonin) system has been implicated in the modulation of male sexual behaviors and the secretion of reproductive hormones. In human males, selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors(SSRIs) are known to improve the major male sexual dysfunction, premature ejaculation, through the central nervous system-mediated pathways. As numerous hormone and local factors, 5-HT may have peripheral role in the regulation of male sexual function. The expression of 5-HT receptor subtypes in the target tissue, however, has not been explored yet. The present study was undertaken to test whether the 5-HT receptor subtypes are expressed in the reproductive tissues of male rat, especially in ejaculatory machinery such as seminal vesicle and vas deferens. To do this, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) and Southern blot analysis were employed. The transcripts for the 1A, 1B and 2C subtypes of 5-HT receptor were amplified in all the tested tissues. The present study demonstrated the expression of 5-HT receptor in the rat ejaculatory machinery, suggesting that 5-HT may play a pivotal role in the male sexual function via not only central pathway but also peripheral route. Further study on the receptor subtype-specific effect and their harmonized mode of action will be needed to establish the understanding of ejaculation mechanism and drug design.
