Absorption characteristics of hot air-. vacuum-, and freeze-dried ginger powder were investigated. Monolayer moisture content as determined by GAB equation was $0.257{\sim}0.540\;H_2O/g$, showing higher significance than BET equation. Absorption enthalpy was calculated based on different drying methods and water activities. Absorption energy decreased with increasing water activity but was not affected by drying method. Isotherm curves showed a typical sigmoid form. Among models applied for predicting equilibrium moisture content, Caurie model was the best fit model for ginger powder, showing the lowest prediction deviation of $1.2{\sim}5.4%$, followed by Henderson then Bradley models. The prediction model equations for the moisture content were established by in(time), water activity, and temperature.

This study was conducted to examine the effects of levels of flavoring materials on the sensory characteristics of chicken feet Jokpyun (Korean traditional gel type food) and to determine the optimum levels. Consumer desirability of Jokpyun flavored with different levels of black pepper and ginger was evaluated. Optimum levels of variables were obtained using response surface methodology. The levels were 0.33% and 0.1% for black pepper and ginger extract, respectively. The shelf-life of the optimized Jokpyun at $4^{\circ}C$ was determined as 6 days. Addition of powdered chicken broth in the Jokpyun preparation at the level of 1.5%(w/w) markedly increased boiled chicken flavor without resulting in undesirable properties.

We used pears to manufacture wine, and analyzed changes in pH, acidity and ethanol and sugar content during fermentation. Pear wine with added ginger (to improve quality) did not differ from ginger-free wine in pH or acidity level. The ethanol content of pear wine was the highest (13.0%, v/v) inpear wine with 0.1% (w/v) added ginger compared to pear wine with no ginger, and sensory tests examining taste and color yielded the highest scores for pear wine with 0.2% (w/v) ginger. To assess storage stability, pear wine was treated for 30 minutes at $55^{\circ}C$, $60^{\circ}C$, $65^{\circ}C$, or $70^{\circ}C$. Unheated pear wine showed rapid changes in pH and acidity level after 30 days of storage, whereas pear wine treated for 30 minutes at $60^{\circ}C$ did not show such changes. Total organic acid levels in pear wine increased by 0.71% and 0.89% (v/v), respectively. The free sugar level in pear wine decreased from 12.05% to 3.13% (w/v). Turning to phenolic compounds, caffeic acid, catechin, and epicatechin contents in pears were 1.64, 1.40, and 0.23 mg/100mL, respectively, with diverse compositions. Caffeic acid levels in pear wine decreased sharply to 0.12 mg/100 mL upon fermentation, whereas free catechin inpear wine increased to 1.16 mg/100 mL compared with 0.28 mg/100 mL in pears. Free arbutin increased from 8.34 mg/100 mL in pears to 10.39 mg/100 mL in pear wine. The free amino acid content of pear wine was 118.5 g/100 mL, but the levels of serine, alanine, glutamic acid, and aspartic acid decreased sharply upon fermentation, with corresponding increases in tyrosine, GABA, lysine, and arginine.

This study was carried out to evaluate the quality of characteristics of Takju, Yakju, and spirit made from Bunkuk(flour), Phellinus linteus and Ginger kuk. The sacharogenic power of Nuruks and pH, brix, acidity, cell numbers of yeast, and alcohol content of Deotsuls were analysed; flavors, organic acids, and sensory evaluation of Takju, Yakju, and spirit were employed in the analysis of this current study. Results showed that the saccharogenic power of Phellinus linteus kuk after fermentation of Nuruks showed the highest level, and Phellinus linteus kuk and Ginger kuk showed the same level after dry Nuruks. During fermentation of Deotsuls, pH and brix decreased with increased fermentation time, while acidity increased with increased fermentation time. Cell numbers of yeast were found to be at the highest level in Phellinus linteus kuk on the first day of fermentation, and it was the same result in the final stage(p<0.05). Alcohol content increased with an increase in fermentation time, and showed no significant difference between control and test in the final stage of fermentation. In terms of analysis of flavor components, acetone and n-amyl alcohol were not detected in Takju, Yakju, and spirit. n-butanol was detected at the highest value, followed by i-amyl alcohol. Fusel oil was detected at the highest level in spirit fermented by Bunkuk. In analysis of organic acids, lactic acid showed the highest content followed by acetic acid. Very small amounts of acetic acid were detected in the spirit and other organic acids were not detected. In sensory evaluation, Takju, Yakju, and spirit made from Phellinus linteus kuk showed the highest score. As a result of this study, Phellinus linteus kuk presented the most desirable Nuruk in order to make Takju, Yakju, and spirit.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a common malignant tumor in the oral cavity, comprising up to 90% of oral cancer. Oral cancer is characterized by a marked tendency of local invasiveness and is good for early detection and treatment; therefore, it is recognized as a good model for cancer prevention. The present study investigated the antioxidant, thrombin inhibitory, and anti-invasive activities of the solvent fractions of Zingiber officinale Roscoe. Samples were fractionated into hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, butanol, and water fractions, and each of these was assayed individually. The water fraction showed the highest extraction yield at 9.79%(w/w). Anti-oxidative activity was analyzed by DPPH assay. Thrombin inhibitory activity was used to analyze thrombin inhibitor assay. Cell viability was detected by the MTS assay. The activity and mRNA expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in human oral squamous carcinoma YD-10B cells were examined by zymography and RT-PCR. The antioxidative activities of hexane and water fractions were 92.38% and 92.96%, respectively. In the thrombin inhibitory activity test, water fraction was the highest, with a value of 65.86%. MMP-2/-9 activation was increased in phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-induced YD-10B cells. MMP-9 activation was increased in thrombin-treated YD-10B cells. In PMA- or thrombin-treated YD-10B cells, the increased mRNA expression and protein activation of MMP-2/-9 were significantly inhibited in the hexane fraction. Therefore, the hexane fraction obtained from a Zingiber officinale Roscoe water extract is a promising therapeutic anti-invasive agent in oral cancer.
