To address the limitations of manufacturing noodle products using rice, brown rice noodles were created by the fermentation of brown rice containing several nutrients and the quality of these noodles were evaluated. White rice noodles, fermented white rice noodles, brown rice noodles, and fermented brown rice noodles were developed using white rice and brown rice, respectively. We found that the content of crude proteins present in the noodles during the fermentation process increased and the content of crude fat and carbohydrates in the noodles was reduced. In addition, the water content of brown rice noodles was twofold higher than that of white rice, although under fermentation conditions, the water content of brown rice noodles decreased slightly. A slight change of chromaticity was observed during the fermentation process. In cooking, the weight and volume of the noodles increased, with the change being lowest in noodles based on white rice. White rice-based noodles exhibited significantly higher turbidity in the cooked noodle soup, while other noodle products showed relatively constant turbidity. Most of the products showed a decreased texture, becoming soft with cooking; however, the elasticity of the cooked products increased. Our results suggest that the disadvantages of producing rice noodles can be overcome by the development of fermented brown rice noodles containing a variety of nutritional components. This would potentially develop a market for rice-based manufactured foods that appeal to modern preferences.

The changes of volatile components of cooked rice during storage at $70^{\circ}C$ for 5 hr were investigated. Among more than 100 volatile components of fresh cooked rice, the predominant one was hexanal followed by nonanal, acetone, pentanal, butanal, heptanal, octanal and toluene. These eight components comprised about 55% of the total volatile, which was decreased by half after one hour storage. The amount of major volatile components in Tongil type rice was higher than Japonica rice, but the decrease of volatiles during storage was faster in the former.

The mixing of rice and brown rice produced in different years is banned in Korea by the grain management act. However, there has been no reported method for discriminating the production year of rice. The objective of this study was to develop a method for discriminating the production year of rice and brown rice based on their phospholipids content. One hundred rice samples and 130 brown rice samples produced between 2012 and 2015 were collected. Twelve phosphatidylcholine components were analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Phosphatidylcholine was used as an internal standard to calculate the peak intensity of the samples. A statistical analysis of the results showed that the centroid distance between the stale and new rice was 4.16 and the classification ratio was 97%. To verify the calculated discriminant, 61 and 40 rice samples were collected. The accuracy of discrimination was 82% by primary verification and 80% by secondary verification. The statistical analysis of brown rice showed that the centroid distance between the stale and new brown rice was 3.14 and the classification ratio was 96%. To verify the calculated discriminant, 10 samples of new rice and 30 samples of stale rice were collected and the accuracy of discrimination was 93%. The accuracy of discrimination for rice stored at room temperature was 57.9-92.1% and that for rice stored at a low temperature was 86.8-94.7%, depending on the storage period. For brown rice, the detection accuracy was 94.7-100% at room temperature and 92.1-100% at a low temperature, depending on the storage period. The accuracy of discrimination for rice was affected by the storage temperature and time, while that for brown rice was more than 92% regardless of the storage conditions. These results suggest that the developed discriminant analysis method could be utilized to determine the production year of rice and brown rice.

Physicochemical properties of starch isolated from the naked barley seeds during germination were investigated, The germinated barley seeds showed an apparent increase in amylose component of the starches, and water binding capacities of the starches decreased initially and then increased with longer germination time. The size frequency distribution of starch granules showed that the granules larger than $20.2{\mu}$ in diameter were preferentially degraded, and moreover the rate of degradation was higher than that of granules of any other size. It was apparent that the mean diameter of granules was $12.7{\sim}20.2{\mu}$ at all stages of germination. The results of differential scanning calorimetry, swelling power, solubility and X-ray diffraction patterns of starch granules isolated at various stages of germination showed little changes during germination. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that the starch granules have been damaged extensively by degradative enzymes during germination, but all the starch granules were not degraded uniformly.

Samil-ju, the traditional Korean rice wine was brewed and distilled using different columns (unpacked and packed) at different pressure (760, 460, 260 mmHg). Fractions of distillate were collected and analyzed. The sample wine, Samil-ju showed the following compositions; ethanol 14%, total acidity 16.2 g/100 ml, reducing sugar 7.9 mg/ml, total sugar 8.4 mg/ml, acetaldehyde 6 ppm, fusel oil acetaldehyde and ethyl acetate 6 ppm. As distillation proceeds, contents of ethanol, methanol, fusel oil, acetaldehyde and ethyl acetate were decreased but total acidity was increased. Generally at reduced pressure, all the constituents but total acidity showed more decrease than those at atmospheric pressure. In the 1st, 2nd and 3rd fractions of the distillate, ethanol contents were maintained at about 70% but those contents decreased abruptly to below 50% from the 5th fraction. Sixteen sensory characteristics were identified as quality factors of distillate. Among them, four characteristics were identified as aroma properties, seven as tastes and five as aftertastes. Nuruk and cooling flavor were considered as important factors which affect greatly the sensory quality of distillate. Among various fractions, the 2nd, 3rd and 4th fractions obtained from unpacked column at 260 mmHg showed the highest score in the overall quality. The compositions of these fractions were ranged as follows; methanol $24{\sim}36\;ppm$, total acidity $0.21{\sim}0.29\;g/100\;ml$, fusel oil 657-1340 ppm, acetaldehyde $12{\sim}41\;ppm$, and ethylacetate $22{\sim}311\;ppm$, respectively.

This study was conducted to that investigate the quality characteristics of wet-ground whole-grain buckwheat powder for the buckwheat husk. The particle size of buckwheat rice was 74.84 ${\mu}m$, which was approximately four to five times larger than wet-ground whole buckwheat by wet grinding. The particle size showed that there was no significant difference after 90 min on wet grinding. The total phenolics and total flavonoids contents of the whole buckwheat powder were higher than those of buckwheat rice, and they gradually increased wet grinding progressed. The rutin contents of the buckwheat increased after wet grinding and was 152.90 ppm at 90 min. There was no significant difference in the quercetin contents after wet grinding at different times. The mineral contents (Ca, K and Mg) of the whole buckwheat powder were greater than those of the buckwheat rice. Further, Zn and Mn were detected in the whole buckwheat powder. The total amino acid content of the whole buckwheat powder increased to 22.27 mg%, and the important glutamic acid increased from 14.58 to 30.45 mg%. These study results were based on 90 min wet-grinding time for whole-buckwheat-powder manufacture. Whole buckwheat powder manufactured through wet grinding can be used as an active ingredient of buckwheat husk.

This study was conducted to compare the quality of the brown rice (BR) and milled rice (MR) during storage. To assess quality, BR and MR were analysed by their fat acidity and flavor pattern using a SMart Nose$^{(R)}$. BR was stored for 30 days at $30^{\circ}C$, and analysed after 5, 15, 20, and 30 days of storage. MR produced in 2005, 2009, and 2010 were also tested. The fat acidity of both rice groups was increased with extended storage and the fat acidity of BR was more rapidly increased than that of MR in general. The flavor patterns from the SMart Nose$^{(R)}$ results were analyzed by the principal component analysis (PCA). The major groups of atomic mass unit (amu) for good discrimination contribution were from 41 to 85 amus. The PCA1 and PCA2 of BR were 95.64% and 2.78%, respectively when the samples were categorized by storage period. The PCA1 and PCA2 of MR were 81.18% and 13.85%, respectively when the samples were compared by production year. Both rice groups could be practically differentiated into flavor patterns by volatile properties for storage period. With regard to the correlation between fat acidity and flavor pattern, we could find that increasing storage period increased fat acidity value and changed flavor pattern from SMart Nose$^{(R)}$. Accordingly, SMart Nose$^{(R)}$ could be successfully used for easy screening and quality evaluation of stored rice.

Changes in chemical composition, viscosity and color during fermentation of improved Kochoojang from four starch sources (wheat, barley, rice and glutinous rice) were examined. Analyses included measurements of moisture, reducing sugars, amino nitrogen, pH, total acidity, viscosity, color and sensory panel scores for viscosity, color, odor and taste. Changes in chemical composition were similar for all Kochoojang products. Decrease in viscosity was greatest during the first 10 days of fermentation. Hunter tristimulus values decreased gradually during fermentation, and total color difference after 60 days was greatest for rice flour Kochoojang. Sensory evaluation showed that the viscosity of rice flour Kochoojang was less desirable than that of the others. However, no significant differences were found in color, odor and taste of all Kochoojang products. A high negative correlation was observed between Hunter a value and visual preference.
