This study was to investigate the combined effect of enzyme and trehalose addition on the retrogradation rate and quality changes in a Korean traditional rice cake, Backsulgi. As for the enzyme, a commercial maltogenic amylase, Novamyl, was used. From texture profile analysis and sensory tests, the optimum enzyme content for the preparation of Backsulgi was determined to be 0.1%. Backsulgi was prepared with the fixed content of Novamyl (0.1%) and different ratios (5, 10, 15%) of trehalose, and physicochemical and sensory properties were examined for 3 days of storage at ${25^{\circ}C}$. As trehalose content increased, the water activity of Backsulgi decreased. In Hunter's color value, L- and a-values of trehalose-added samples were significantly lower than those of control. In texture profile analysis, hardness of Backsulgi decreased with trehalose content. During storage, a increase in hardness and a decrease in cohesiveness were typically observed for all samples. However, those changes were significantly reduced with trehalose content. The retardation of retrogradation with the enzyme and trehalose addition was confirmed using calculated Avrami rate and time constants. These results revealed that combined treatments of 0.1% Novamyl and 10% trehalose could produce Backsulgi of better sensory quality with retarded retrogradation compared to separated treatment.

To improve the properties of non-waxy rice flours for baking, soaked-wet milled rice flour (SWRF) was adjusted moisture content (MC) to 30 and 50 % and heated at 50 and $70^{\circ}C$ in a shaking water bath for 6 and 18 hrs, respectively. Moisture-heat treated rice flours were investigated with regard to particle size distribution, and morphological, physicochemical and pasting properties for comparing dry and wet milled flours. The particle size of rice flour treated with 30% MC was distributed between $4-20{\mu}m\;and\;100-200{\mu}m$, like SWRF. The particles above $200{\mu}m$ in the flour were produced at higher heating temperature. By SEM, starch granules were found in the rice flours treated with 30% MC, who whereas aggregated starch granules were shown in the flours treated with 50% MC. Moisture-heat treatment using higher MC and heating temperature decreased the lightness and increased the yellowness of non-waxy rice flours. Water binding capacity of 30% moisture treated rice flour was similar to that of SWRF. In the same moisture treated rice flour, swelling power was higher, but solubility was lower at $50^{\circ}C$ than at $70^{\circ}C$. The initial pasting temperature by RVA increased after moisture-heat treatment. The peak viscosity of moisture-heat treated rice flour was higher for 30% moisture than that of the others. The rice flour treated with 30% MC and heated at $50^{\circ}C$ showed low setback and increased stability for retrogradation.

We examined the effects of soaking, saturation, and aging conditions of raw cowpea seeds, on the yield and growth responses of cowpea sprouts. The absorption caused rapid growth for the first two hours of soaking, then the growth slowed. The longer the soaking period (varied from 1 to 6 hours), the lower the germinability, yield ratio, and lateral root output became. A five-day saturation (moist $96{\pm}1%$, $20^{\circ}C$) treatment led to higher germinability, yield ratio, and lateral root output than no treatment and one- or three-day saturation treatment. High-temperature aging treatment led to lower germinability and yield ratio compared to no such treatment. Taking these findings into account, the optimal treatment conditions of raw cowpea seeds are a five-day saturation (moist $96{\pm}1%$, $20^{\circ}C$) treatment followed by cleaning and growing.

Coating treatment with 120 kDa of chitosan on bread was decreased growth rate of bacteria and not detected growth of any fungi during storage period. Bread with coating by 1% and 2% of 120 kDa chitosan have had the high antioxidant. Change in the water content was lawered as the higher concentration of chitosan coating on bread. water activity has a low variance untill 2% of chitosan concentration and so there result are expected on inhibition effect of retrogradation in bread during storage period. The change of pH was not detected in bread. And the color of bread have not effected on treatment with below 2% of chitosan but had a little effect by 2% of chitosan coating.

To evaluate the processing adaptability of taro flours, the physicochemical properties of taro flour with different drying, roasting and steaming conditions were investigated. The moisture content and total dietary fiber were decreased as temperature increased with hot-air drying. Freeze-dried taro flours showed the highest vitamin C contents. Taro flours made by freeze-drying and hot-air drying showed significantly higher total dietary fiber content than those with roasting and steaming process. Steamed taro flours had the highest water absorption index, while hot-air dried and freeze dried taro flours had the highest water solubility index. No differences were displayed in the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) thermal characteristics among hot-air dried and freeze dried taro flours. Roasted taro displayed decreased onset temperature and peak temperature as roasting temperature increased. Using a rapid visco-analyzer, the peak viscosity, through viscosity, and final viscosity of dried and steamed taro flours were higher than roasted taro flours, whereas the set back value, which is a prediction of retrogradation, decreased with steaming processing. From those results, it could be concluded that hotair dried taro flours, which have high gelatinization viscosity, are beneficial in imparting viscosity to dough products and hot-air drying after steaming taro flours, which retard retrogradation, is good for porridge and flake base products.

The effect of vase water temperature and leaf number on water relations and senescence responses was determined in cut roses. Freshly harvested 'Red Sandra' roses were re-trimmed to 50 cm leaving two or four upper leaves and held in one of three solutions: ambient temperature distilled water ($23^{\circ}C$; AT-DW), low temperature distilled water ($7^{\circ}C$; LT-DW) and low temperature preservative solution (LT-PW). Flowers were kept in an environmental controlled room. Treatment effects evaluated were vase life, flower diameter, and changes in fresh weight and water uptake. Differences in water relations were determined by measuring $CO_2$ assimilation, stomatal conductance, and stem water flux rate (SFR). The water uptake rate was significantly increased in roses in LT-DW and decreased in those in LT-PW. While showing lower solution uptake rate during vase period, roses in LT-PW exhibited greatest fresh weight, longest positive water balance duration and largest flower diameter. Flowers with two leaves attached exhibited a higher fresh weight and improved water balance, thereby extending vase life. $CO_2$ assimilation rate and stomatal conductance were significantly decreased by placing flowers in LT-PW, yet increased by reducing leaf number to two leaves on the flower stems. Compared to the upper stem, the SFR of the basal stem of roses in AT-DW was lower, whereas SFR in basal stems of roses in LT-DW was much higher, suggesting that low-temperature water improved the hydraulic conductance in the stems. In contrast, roses in LT-PW had a stable SFR during the experimental period and displayed a similar pattern in SFR between upper and basal portions of the stems. Consequently, the vase life of cut roses in LT-PW and LT-DW was extended by more than eight and four days, respectively, compared to those in AT-DW.

To evaluate the skin aging inhibition effect of fermented Reynoutria elliptica, skin aging model was produced by the irradiation of UVB to hairless mice for 5 weeks. The skin erythema index for the positive control (PC), not fermented Reynoutria elliptica extract (NFR), and fermented Reynoutria elliptica extract (FR-500, 1000, 2000) groups were lower than that of the control group. However, both lipid and water capacity for the PC and FR groups were higher than those of the control group. Collagen fibers in dermis of the FR groups were almost intact with a regular arrangement which were similar to the normal (NO) group. Also, relatively much less number of mast cells and inflammatory cells were found in FR groups. The skin TBARS contents and XO activity in the FR group were significantly lower than the control group. The activities of GSH, SOD and CAT for the FR groups were significant higher than the control group. Therefore, fermented Reynoutria elliptica extract can be practically useful for the prevention or improvement of skin aging in terms of health promotion and beauty for the people.
