Some physicochemical properties of ginger root (Zingiber officinale) starch were compared with those of cross-linked corn starch. The ginger root starch that contained 23.5% amylose had a water-binding capacity of 99.1% and a B-type X-ray diffraction pattern. The optical transmittance of the ginger root starch suspension increased from $70^{\circ}C$ and showed a similar pattern to cross-linked corn starch. Solubility studies revealed that both ginger root and cross-linked corn starches had low swelling power and solubility in water up to $90^{\circ}C$, and reduced solubility in potassium hydroxide. Brabender amylograph data indicated that the ginger root starch (7%) had a relatively high initial pasting temperature $(81.5^{\circ}C)$ and was stable against heat and mechanical shear, which resembled to the cross-linked corn starch.

To manufacture salad dressing with ginger, dressing with 0%, 3%, 6%, 9%, and 12% ginger added were prepared and tested for quality. The salad dressing products were evaluated for pH, acidity, chromaticity, salinity, sugar content, sensory test during storage up to 21 days at $4^{\circ}C$. The pH of the dressing increased with ginger added, whereas the acidity decreased(p<0.001). The L, a and b values increased during the storage period(p<0.01). Brix measurements decreased with ginger added, whereas the salinity increased. Also, the salinity of the dressing increased during the storage period(p<0.01). According to the sensory test results, dressing products with 9% and 12% ginger added were most preferred for the early storage days; however, the sensory test showed that the dressing with 6% ginger added was most preferred for seven test items according to storage period, indicating that the salad dressing added with 6% ginger was acceptable.

Ginger (Zingiber officinale Rosc.) is a well known edible plant that is traditionally used to treat various illnesses related to inflammation and oxidative stress. Steam distillated ginger oil or water extract are mainly used for related products; however, it is unclear whether these fractions contain most of the bioactive compounds or the highest efficacy. This investigated the antioxidant effects of extracts prepared by supercritical fluid extraction (SFE). 6-Gingerol was the most abundant component in hexane fraction of ethanol extract from ginger. The antioxidative properties of SFE oil and Marc ethanol fractions were demonstrated using the 2,20-diphenylpicrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azinobis 3-ethyl benzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) radicals scavenging assays. A clear correlation was observed between total polyphenol contents and $RC_{50}$ values in the Marc ethanol fraction. These results indicate that not only SFE oil but the marc after SFE could be good sources for the food industry.

This study investigated the antioxidant activities and antimicrobial effects of MeOH extracts from some spices. The total flavonoid contents of MeOH extracts from ginger, garlic, onion, Chinese pepper (Zanthoxylum schinifolium) and black pepper (Piper nigrum) were 20.3%, 10.0%, 4.3%, 6.6% and 12.8%, while the total phenol contents were 19.3%, 1.0%, 0.5%, 3.4% and 7.9%, respectively. The order of the nitrite-scavenging abilities of spice extracts were ginger> black pepper> Chinese pepper> garlic> onion (p<0.05). MeOH extract from ginger showed antimicrobial activity to Bacillus cereus, and garlic extract showed strong antimicrobial activity to Salmonella enteritidis. However, onion extract did not show any antimicrobial activity. The electron donating ability of MeOH extract from ginger was markedly higher than those of garlic, Chinese pepper, black pepper and onion extracts. Antioxidative activities in linoleic acid substrates were in order of BHT> ginger> Chinese pepper> black pepper> garlic> $\alpha$-tocopherol> onion. Antioxidative activities in linoleic acid emulsion substrates were in order of BHT> $\alpha$-tocopherol> ginger> black pepper> Chinese pepper> garlic> onion.

In order to establish proper storage conditions for ginger, the quality changes of gingers stored at three different temperatures(7$^{\circ}C$, 12$^{\circ}C$ and 20$^{\circ}C$) and three different relative humidities(75%, 85% and 95%RH) were investigated during 150 days of storage. Gingers stored at 7$^{\circ}C$ and 20$^{\circ}C$ showed rapid quality deterioration due to chilling injury and spouting respectively in any range of relative humidity. Ginger stored at 7$^{\circ}C$ was staled to show symptoms of the chilling injury such as moldiness, shrivelling, discoloration etc after 30 days of storage ; then it was deteriorated after 90 days of storage. Ginger stored at 20$^{\circ}C$ was completely lost its storage-life after 30 days of storage because of high sprouting ratio. However ginger stored at 12$^{\circ}C$, 75%RH showed better quality than ones stored at both 7$^{\circ}C$ and 20$^{\circ}C$, but it was not so good as the one at 7$^{\circ}C$, 95%RH. Consequently storage conditions of 12$^{\circ}C$, 95%RH was observed the best effecive condition for keeping rhizomes in good quality from weight loss, spouting, mouldiness and so on.

In this study, we analyzed 24 pieces ($4{\times}3{\times}2$) of pork jerky produced using raw meat and we then randomly assigned the hind leg meat to a treatment group. In addition, the effects of storage according to aerobic plate counts and sensory evaluation on pork jerky were examined. Form the results, We found that volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) content and aerobic plate counts of pork jerky gradually increased with increased storage time, ; moreover, there was a significant difference between the treatment groups and the control group (p<0.01). However, the counts did not increase as significantly in the ginseng powder group (B), as compared to the ginger powder group (A) (p<0.05). The sensory evaluation of pork jerky peaked during the second week of storage in all treatment groups, after which these characteristics gradually decreased (p<0.05). In addition, these characteristics were generally higher in the control group, compared to the treatment groups. When comparing the ginseng powder addition group (B) and ginger powder-addition group (A), only color was significantly higher in the ginger powder group. Based on this study as well as previous studies, storage of pork jerky significantly affects the sensory evaluation of raw pork. Ginger powder may have a more beneficial effect than other treatments on the sensory evaluation. Additionally, in all treatment groups, sensory characteristics were significantly higher in the ginger treated groups than in those of the ginseng-treated groups.

The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal mixing ratios for three different concentrations of maltodextrin, dehydration time, and cutting thickness to prepare gingers using molecular press dehydration (MPD) through response surface methodology (RSM) based on the dehydration rate, rehydration rate, and a sensory evaluation. As maltodextrin concentration increased, dehydration rate, rehydration rate, external, flavor, texture, overall acceptability of the gingers tended to be high, and the color tended to be low. As the dehydration time and cutting thickness increased, dehydration rate, rehydration rate and the sensory evaluation of the gingers tended to be high. The maltodextrin concentrations were 70-82%, dehydration time was 5.2-9.2 hr, and cutting thickness levels were 1.0-1.2 mm. The optimal mixing ratios, maltodextrin concentration, dehydration time, and cutting thickness for manufacturing the best quality of gingers using molecular press dehydration were 76%, 7.2 hr, and 1.1 mm, respectively.
