This study was conducted to investigate the effect of dietary wormwood powder (Artemisia montana Pampan; WP) supplementation on growing performance and fecal noxious gas emission in weanling pigs. One hundred and twelve pigs were alloted into four treatments and offered for 4 weeks one of the diets supplemented with 0% (control), 0.5% (0.5), 1.0% (1.0) and 2.0% (2.0) WP. Each treatments has four replicate with 7 pigs per replicate. ADG, ADFI and F/G were improved by 1.0 and 2.0 WP supplementation during 0d${\sim}$14d feeding. Feed intake of 1.0 WP diet was higher (P<0.05) than any other diet during 15d${\sim}$28d feeding. But there were no differences among the other treatments in the weight gain and feed conversion. During the whole feeding period, daily weight gain and feed intake of pigs fed 1.0 and 2.0 treatments were higher than those of pigs fed control and 0.5 diet. DM digestibility was significantly (P<0.05) higher in weanling pigs fed 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 WP than that of the control. The protein digestibility was significantly improved in 1.0 WP treatment and the phosphorus digestibility was improved in 2.0 WP treatment. Excretion of nitrogen and phosphorus was significantly (P<0.05) decreased by 2.0 treatment than control. Emission of fecal ammonia after 48 hours storage in vinyl bag dramatically decreased by all the treatments except control. However, there was no statistical difference in fecal hydrogen sulfide emission among treatments. In conclusion, this study suggested that the dietary 1.0${\sim}$2.0 supplementation of WP can improve productivity of pigs decrease fecal $NH_3$ and $H_2S$ gas emission.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of mugwort powder on the quality characteristics of sponge cake. Mugwort powder sponge cake was prepared with different ration of mugwort powder(0, 5, 10, 15, 20%). The specific gravity, baking loss rate and cake weight increases as the ration of mugwort powder. The sponge cake's a, b level increased with the increasing level of mugwort powder 20% appeared to be the highest. In terms of textural characteristics, the samples containing 5, 10, and 20% mugwort powder had significantly higher hardness than the control samples. The substance's level of springiness, and cohesiveness decreased as the mugwort powder added. In sensory evaluation, overall acceptability and taste of the cake was better than the others when 10% mugwort powder was added. The results indicated that substituting 10% mugwort powder to sponge cake is optimal for quality and provides a product with reasonable high overall acceptability.

This study were investigated the effects of dietary supplementation of yacon by-products and mugwort powder on performance, carcass characteristics, pH, TBARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive substance), WHC (water holding capacity), shear force and meat color of broiler thigh meat. Broiler chicks were fed diets for five weeks containing 0% yacon by-products and mugwort powder (Control), 0.5% yacon by-products powder (T1), 1.0% yacon by-products powder (T2), 0.5% mugwort powder (T3), and 1.0% mugwort powder (T4). There were no significant difference in performance among treatments, but mortality was decreased in diets by the supplementation of yacon by-products and mugwort powder than that of control. The total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol and triglyceride of control were higher than treatment groups and HDL-cholesterol of control was lower than treatment. The TBARS was significantly decreased by the supplementation of yacon by-products and mugwort powder compared to the control (P<0.05), especially, mugwort powder treatment group was significantly (P<0.05) more effective in improving freshness compared to other treatment groups. The WHC and shear force were not significantly different. CIE $L^*$ and $a^*$ value of treatment groups showed significantly higher value compared to the control, however, no difference in the CIE $b^*$ values was observed among treatment groups. In conclusion, a supplementation of yacon by-products and mugwort powder were effective in decreasing TBARS, total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol and increasing HDL-cholesterol concentration. Mugwort powder supplementation was most effective.

The effects of carcass grade(B and E) and containing mugwort powder(0.3％) on the pH, volatile basic nitrogen(VBN), thiobarbituric acid reactive substances(TBARS), bacterial count and residual nitrite of the pork sausage were investigated during storage at 4$^{\circ}C$${\pm}$1 for 8 weeks. The pH value and VBN content of sausage containing mugwort powder were not significant different(p＞0.05) depending on the carcass grade as compared to sausage free of mugwort powder. The TBARS values of sausage containing mugwort powder were significantly lower than those of sausage free of mugwort powder up to 8 weeks of the chilling process. The sausage containing mugwort powder showed to have lower bacterial counts and residual nitrite contents than those free of mugwort powder depending on the carcass grade. However, those of sausage were not affected by the carcass grade.

In this study, we have investigated the quality characteristics of Tteokgukdduk, a traditional Korean rice cake, containing different amounts of mugwort powder (0, 1, 3, 5, 7 w/w %). We observed that the moisture content in Tteokgukdduk containing mugwort powder ranged at 41.79 to 42.50% was not significant when compared with Tteokgukdduk that is devoid of mugwort powder. We also noted that the Hunter color L value decreased in proportion to the added mugwort powder. Further, the weight of Tteokgukdduk was found to be increased with increasing levels of added mugwort powder. However, the volume of Tteokgukdduk did not varied significantly at the different mugwort powder concentrations (P>0.05). We also observed that the hardness of uncooked Tteokgukdduk containing 3% mugwort powder showed the lowest value among Tteokgukdduk containing mugwort powder. However, it did not varied significantly at the different mugwort powder concentrations (P>0.05). In cooked Tteokgukdduk, however, we found that the nature and quality of springiness and gumminess increased with corresponding increase in the amount of added mugwort powder. Further, with regard to the sensory evaluation, the intensity (of both color and flavor) of Tteokgukdduk was found to be increased with proportionate increase in the amount of added mugwort powder. The results of this study suggest that the acceptability qualities such as color, flavor, taste, texture, and overall acceptability were of the highest order for Tteokgukdduk containing 3% mugwort powder.

The purpose of this study was to determine the optimum amount of Artemisia annua L. powder for adding rice flour. The A. annua powder was added to the rice flour at ratios of 1% (30 g/3 kg), 2% (60 g/3 kg), 3% (90 g/3 kg, w/w). As the amount of A. annua powder in rice cake dough increased, carbohydrate, ash content, total amino acid, and dietary fiber contents increased whereas the moisture content decreased. Hunter's L value decreased as A. annua powder content increased. On the contrary, the a- and b values increased. The sensory score of the rice cakes containing 30 g of A. annua powder was the highest of all the rice cakes tested. Based on these results, adding A. annua powder could improve the quality and sensory characteristics of rice cake.

The objective of this study was to determine the shelf-life effects and residual nitrite contents of mugwort and pine needle extracts addition in emulsified sausage during cold storage. The sausages were of five types: no mugwort and pine needle extracts added (Control), mugwort water extract added (T1), mugwort ethanol extract added (T2), pine needle water extract added (T3), and pine needle ethanol extract added (T4). Each sausage type was tested in triplicate and assigned to one of four storage periods: 0, 10, 20 and 30 days. As storage time increased, the presence of mugwort and pine needle extracts resulted in decreased pH, CIE $L^*$, and residual nitrite value, but increased TBARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive substance) values, and total plate counts (TPC). Values for pH, TBARS, residual nitrite contents and total plate counts were significantly decreased by the addition of mugwort and pine needle extracts compared to the control (P<0.05). Among all treatments, T4 was more (P<0.05) effective in delaying lipid oxidation compared to other treatment groups. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that addition of pine needle ethanol extract to emulsified sausages tended to improve antioxidant and antimicrobial effects and residual nitrite contents during storage than other treatment groups.
