제주민속주인 좁쌀약주의 제조를 위하여 전국에서 수집된 35종의 누룩으로부터 우수 곰팡이와 효모를 분리하였다. 수집된 누룩의 균수는 곰팡이가 6.4$\times$105~107개, 효모는 1.4$\times$104~107개로 나타났고, 이 중에서 곰팡이 169균주, 효모 103균주를 분리하였으며 전분당화력이 좋은 곰팡이 16균주와 효모 1균주를 선발하였다. 이 중에서 전분당화 균주의 효소활성을 분석한 결과 Aspergillus속으로 동정된 A8-3이 glucoamylase 활성, 액화력, xylanase 활성이 가장 높았고, Rhizopus속으로 동정된 B23-3은 당화력이 가장 우수하였다. 우수효모를 선발하기 위하여 pH, 무게 감량, 내당성, 내알코올성 등을 측정한 결과, Saccharomyces속인 A10-4가 가장 우수하였다. 같은 원료비율로 만든 누룩에 우수균주를 접종하였을 때, 단일 균주를 처리할 때보다 A8-3과 B23-3인 두 균주를 혼합하여 처리한 경우가 당화력이 높게 나타났다. 누룩을 원반형의 누룩과 팰릿(개량형) 형태로 만들어 혼합종균 배양액을 접종한 후 당화력을 측정한 결과, 비슷한 당화력을 나타내었다. 개량형 누룩을 사용하여 양조하는 경우, 좁쌀주 양조에 발효효율을 높일 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다. 수집된 누룩은 수분이 10~13%, 총당은 55~70%, 조단백질은 10~18% 조지방은 0.2~l.0%, 회분은 1.8~2.1%이었다. 본 연구에서 제조한 누룩은 수분이 12~15%, 총당은 61~7l%, 조단백질은 15~20%, 조지방은 0.4~1.5%, 회분은 1.1~1.5%이었다.

Physico-chemical properties of ssamjang prepared by industrial process were investigated. Overall experiments were planned by central composite design for five independent variables, kochujang mash aging period $(X_{1})$, doenjang aging period $(X_{2})$, doenjang content $(X_{3})$, sterilization temperature $(X_{4})$, and storage temperature $(X_{5})$. Storage period had no consistent effect on moisture content of ssamjang. Doenjang having longer aging period showed lower moisture content than that having shorter aging period. Titratable acidity and pH of ssamjang gradually increased and decreased with storage period, respectively, with pH of ssamjang significantly affected by aging period of doenjang and kochujang mashes, and sterilization and storage temperatures. Amino nitrogen contents of ssamjang increased during storage and were more affected by sterilization temperature than by aging period and content of doenjang, and storage temperature. Crude protein content of ssamjang irregularly changed during storage, and was slightly affected by content of doenjang.

The effects of red-potato on the physicochemical properties of kochujang were investigated during fermentation. The number of yeast and aerobic bacteria in kochujang increased up to 4 weeks of fermentation, then the yeast number slowly decreased. Amylase activities also increased after 2~4 weeks of fermentation with the addition of red-potato. The Hunter L-value of kochujang decreased sharply and the a-value increased through the addition of starch syrup, causing major changes in total color difference as the ratio of red-potato increased. There was a direct correlation between the amount of red-potato with water activity and titratable acidity. The oxidation-reduction potential of kochujang decreased sharply after 12 weeks of fermentation, and was lowered with the addition of red-potato. As the ratio of red-potato increased, reducing sugars and ethanol contents of kochujang increased in the later stage of fermentation, while the amino-type nitrogen content was lower. Sensory results showed that a final percentage of 2% red-potato in kochujang was optimal for taste and overall acceptability.

This study was carried out in order to investigate oxidative deterioration during dehydration at $40^{\circ}C,\;50^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$ of sea mussel and baby clam. Moisture content was decreased with drying temperature and time. Sea mussel was dehydrated more rapidly than baby clam that had Harder muscle tissue. Both samples were not reached to Aw 0.62 in case of 10 hrs drying at $40^{\circ}C$, But it reached within 8 hrs in sea mussel and 10 hrs in baby clam at $50^{\circ}C$, respectively. Even if $60^{\circ}C$ could speed up drying, it caused to form more free fatty acid, peroxide, thiobarbituric acid and brown pigments. Lipophilic brown pigment was 10 times higher than hydrophilic and actively increased in all samples. fluorescence intensity was also increased with drying temperature and time. Particularly, it was higher sea mussel than baby clam more or less.

We investigated food preservation hurdles used for Korean traditional side dishes. As a first step of the research preparation and cooking recipes of the side dishes were surveyed, which are commonly used in Korean households. As next step, compositional and microbial quality attributes were measured onto the samples collected from the market. Antimicrobial ingredient added in the preparation are reasoned to work as important hurdles based on the scientific principles. Heating processes such as blanching, boiling, braising, hard-boiling and frying help to keep the produce decontamination or water activity adjustment. Measured salt contents of most side dishes were in the range of 1-5% with those of salt-preserved vegetables being higher. pH values were 4.7-6.4 with those of salt-preserved vegetables being lower and those of hard boiled fishes being higher. Soluble solids of braised or hard-boiled dishes were usually above $40^{\circ}Brix$, while those of blanched and seasoned vegetables had lower values. Water activity values were 0.93-0.95 for seasoned vegetables and 0.77-0.88 for hard-boiled or semi dried beans and seafoods. Product with processing steps of braising or blanching showed lower bacterial load of 102-104 cfu/g, while seasoned or salt-preserved vegetables and seafoods had aerobic bacterial count above 106 cfu/g. Korean traditional side dishes were found to apply the appropriate combinations of heating preparation process, water activity and pH adjustment and salting, providing the required preservation properties.

Spoilage yeast was isolated from spoiled rice-syrup and identified by Microbial Identification system (MIDI) as Zygosaccharomyces bailii based on composition of fatty acids exhibiting carbon skeleton of 16:0, 16.1 $({\Delta}cis\;7)$, 18:2 $({\Delta}cis\;9)$, 18:1 $({\Delta}cis\;9)$, and 18:1. Increase in sugar content $(1^{\circ}brix)$ resulted in decreased moisture concentration (1%), and water activity decreased from 0.72 to 0,63 when sugar concentration increased from 77 to $83^{\circ}brix$. Yeast showed very slow growth during three weeks post-inoculation in rice-syrup at 17 and $79^{\circ}brix$, and maximal level of Z. bailii was found at 6 and 10 weeks storage at 15 and $25^{\circ}C$, respectively. At over $81^{\circ}brix$ its growth slowly decreased at beginning of storage, indicating rice-syrup could be preserved safely at above $81^{\circ}brix$ sugar content without Z. bailii contamination.

In this study, we investigated the anti-oxidative, anti-wrinkle and whitening effects of Platycarya strobilacea bark extracts. The free radical (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl, DPPH) scavenging activity ($FSC_{50}$) of extract / fractions of Platycarya strobilacea was in the order: 50% ethanol extract ($6.75{\mu}g/mL$) < deglycosylated aglycone fraction ($6.62{\mu}g/mL$) < ethyl acetate fraction ($4.15{\mu}g/mL$). Reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging activities ($OSC_{50}$) of some Platycarya strobilacea extracts on ROS generated in $Fe^{3+}$-EDTA/$H_2O_2$ system were investigated using the luminol-dependent chemiluminescence assay. The order of ROS scavenging activity was ethyl acetate fraction (OSC50, $0.56{\mu}g/mL$) < 50% ethanol extract ($0.02{\mu}g/mL$) < deglycosylated aglycone fraction ($0.01{\mu}g/mL$). The deglycosylated aglycone fraction showed the most prominent scavenging activity. The protective effects of extract / fractions of Platycarya strobilacea on the rose-bengal sensitized photohemolysis of human erythrocytes were investigated. The ethanol extract (50%) suppressed photohemolysis in a concentration dependent manner, particularly ethyl acetate fraction exhibited the most prominent cellular protective effect (${\tau}_{50}$, 717.27 min at $10{\mu}g/mL$). The inhibitory effect of Platycarya strobilacea extracts on tyrosinase were investigated to assess their whitening efficacy. Finally, their anti-elastase activities were measured to predict the anti-wrinkle efficacy in the human skin. The inhibitory effect ($IC_{50}$) on tyrosinase of some Platycarya strobilacea extracts was 50% ethanol extract ($243.98{\mu}g/mL$) < ethyl acetate fraction ($153.87{\mu}g/mL$) < deglycosylated aglycone fraction ($137.53{\mu}g/mL$). Also, The inhibitory effect of elastase ($IC_{50}$) of some Platycarya strobilacea extracts was 50% ethanol extract ($31.01{\mu}g/mL$) < ethyl acetate fraction ($14.42{\mu}g/mL$) < deglycosylated aglycone fraction ($1.48{\mu}g/mL$). The cream containing the ethyl acetate fraction of Platycarya strobilacea extracts was formulated. The skin hydration, transepidermal water loss, and the whitening effects were investigated after topical application of the cream. The skin hydration of cream containing extract was increased by $2{\sim}8%$ than the placebo cream, transepidermal water loss was decreased. The cream containing extract suppressed the melanogenesis of skin by 9.55% than the placebo cream. These results indicate that extract / fractions of Platycarya strobilacea can function as antioxidants in biological systems, particularly skin exposed to UV radiation by anti-oxidative activity and protect cellular membranes against ROS. The inhibitory effect on elastase and tyrosinase, and the increase of skin hydration and the whitening effect of the cream containing extract could be applicable to new functional cosmetics for antiaging.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of edible coating on hygroscopicity and quality characteristics of a freeze-dried Actinidia arguta snack. Freeze-dried A. arguta snacks were coated with various edible coating materials such as albumin, dextrin, and whole soy flour. There were no significant effects of coating on major quality properties such as moisture content, water activity, yield, water soluble index, water absorption index, and rehydration properties of all samples. Compared with non-coated samples, edible coated samples effectively inhibited hygroscopicity as a function of hygroscopic time. The samples coated with dextrin showed lower hygroscopicity than the other coated samples. In addition, the effects of edible coating treatment on hardness, total phenolic content, and antioxidant activity measured by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity were investigated. Edible coated samples had higher hardness, total phenolic content, and antioxidant activity than the non-coated samples as a function of hygroscopic time. Among edible coating materials, dextrin was the most effective coating material. Dextrin as an edible coating material for freeze-dried A. arguta snack may help to prevent hygroscopicity and extend market quality and shelf-life during storage.

The antioxidative effect and quality characteristics of different drying methods (hot air drying, far-infrared radiation drying, vacuum freeze drying) from Schizandra Chinensis Baillon were investigated. The moisture contents and water activity(Aw) contents each 4.46% and 0.38 values of the vacuum freeze drying were lower than those of other samples. A significant not difference in pH values occurred in all samples (p<0.05). The highest content $^{\circ}brix$ vacuum freeze drying was $6.60^{\circ}Brix$ respectively. The turbidity values of the samples were hot air drying 8.24 T%, far infrared radiation drying 0.32 T%, vacuum freeze drying 71.85 T%. The Hunter's L, a and b values of vacuum freeze drying were higher than those of other samples. The order of the free sugar content was glucose>fructose>sucrose, and that of the total free sugar contents were vacuum freeze drying (6.33 g/100 g) > far infrared drying (5.01 g/100 g) > hot air drying (3.73 g/100g). Antioxidant acitivy (DPPH radical scavenging, ABTS radical scavenging) and total phenol, total flavonoid, and total tannin content was highest in vaccum freeze drying than other different drying methods except nitrite scavenging ability.
