Purple sweet potatoes were dehydrated with maltodextrin with different dextrose equivalent (DE) values of 4-7, 13-17, 16.5-19.5, and 17-20. Maltodextrin was used as a molecular press dehydrating agent. The molecular dehydration rate of the purple sweet potatoes increased over time. As the DE of maltodextrin increased, the moisture content after 12 h of dehydration decreased from 65.7% to 40.8, 36.1, 34.9, and 28.6% for DE values of 4-7, 13-17, 16.5-17.5, and 17-20, respectively. Additionally, total phenolic content, anthocyanin, and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activities decreased as the DE value of maltodextrin increased. While maltodextrins with DE values of 16.5-19.5 and 17-20 effectively dehydrated the purple sweet potatoes, total phenolic, anthocyanin, and DPPH radical scavenging activities were lowered during dehydration. The DPPH radical scavenging activities correlated to both the total phenolic content ($r^2=0.96$) and anthocyanin contents ($r^2=0.95$) of the purple sweet potatoes. These results indicate that the purple sweet potatoes were effectively dehydrated with maltodextrin whose DE values ranged 16.5-20, although there were losses in the total phenolic and anthocyanin contents.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of high content of light-absorbing pigments on overall photosynthetic efficiency in high density microalgal cultures. The light harvesting complex II (LHC II) regulating gene of Rhodobacter sphaeroides, photosynthetic purple bacterium, was removed to construct a mutant strain that had less pigment content. The mutant and wild type strains were cultured under various light intensity by adjusting the distance from the light source. The productivity of the mutant strain was higher at high light intensity (over 118 ${\mu}E/m^2/s$) compared with one of the wild type , and was lower at low light intensity (34 ${\mu}E/m^2/s$). Especially, the concentration of LHC II mutant strain was 56% higher at 118 ${\mu}E/m^2/s$. The reduction of per cell pigment contents in the mutant strain lessened the degree of the mutual shading and thus enhanced the overall photosynthetic efficiency.

It was in the fifteenth century in Italy that men began to talk of a rebirth in the arts and literature. Today we consider the period to belong to the Renaissance. We noticed the splendour of costume and the important role it played, in the life of Italian society in that period. From elsewhere in Europe and also from the East, dyestuffs came to Italy overland or in shiploads. Red and blue, notably kermes and madder on the one hand, and indigo and woad on the other were fundamental textile dyes in Italy. Saffron was used for yellows, oak galls for blacks. Renaissance Italian costumes' main color symbolized various meaning. Red symbolized high rank, affection, lady, redemption and various cardinal virtueses. Yellow was evaded color which was symbolized the lower class, betrayal, and gold. Green symbolized penniless, youthfulness, hope and love. Blue symbolized humbleness, sincerity, knowledge and the Madonna. Purple symbolized nobility, vice and various meanings. Black symbolized death, grief, beauty and elegance. These color symbols in the Renaissance Italian costumes were very similar to that of modern color symbols.

The aim of this study was to use purple sweet potato powder to develop a recipe for a nutritional cookie with an optimal composition of ingredients and texture, in order to acquire strong preference responses by all age groups in sensory tests. Wheat flour was partially substituted with purple sweet potato powder to reduce the wheat flour content of the cookies. Measurements were made and analyzed according to the Response Surface Methodology technique, which showed 16 experimental points including 3 replicates for the purple sweet potato powder, sugar, and butter. The compositional and functional properties of the sample were measured, and the values obtained were applied to a mathematical model. A canonical form and perturbation plot showed the influence of each ingredient on the final product mixture. The results of sensory evaluations showed very significant values for flavor (P<0.0071), texture (P<0.0306), taste (P<0.0190), and overall quality (P<0.0142). Instrumental analysis showed significant values for hardness (P<0.0027), yellowness (P<0.0061) and spread ratio (P<0.0001). The optimal compositional ratios were determined to be 21.75 g for the purple sweet potato powder, 37.05 g for the sugar, and 60.59 g for the butter.

중국, 유럽, 한국산 순무를 국내에서 파종.수확한 후 동치미를 담그어 발효 특성을 비교해 보고 김치 제조에 알맞은 품종을 알아보고자 하였다. 신선한 순무의 특성으로 중국산 순무는 가용성 고형물 함량, 경도 및 파쇄성이 가장 높았다. 한국산 순무는 안토시아닌 함량이가장 많았다. 원산지별 순무로 담근 동치미를 $0^{\circ}C$에서 70일까지 경시적으로 이화학적, 관능적 특성을 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 중국산 순무 동치미는 숙성 전 기간동안 산도, 가용성 고형물 함량, 탁도, 유산균수가 유럽산에 비하여 높아 발효속도가 가장 컸으며, 한국산 순무 동치미는 중간의 발효 속도를 나타내었다. 이같은 특성은 관능 검사 결과에서도 유사한 경향을 보여주었다. 안토시아닌 함량 및 적색도 a값은 한국산 순무 동치미가 가장 높았고 중국산 순무 동치미가 가장 낮았다. 조직감중 경도는 기계적 분석 결과와 관능 검사 결과 모두에서 한국산 순무 동치미와 중국산 순무 동치미가 숙성전 기간동안 높게 유지되었고 유럽산 순무 동치미는 낮았다. 그러나 전반적인 기호도는 숙성적기인 숙성 40 일에 한국산 순무 동치미가 6.7 점으로 가장 높았고, 그 다음이 중국산 동치미로 5.9 점이었고, 유럽산 동치미는 3.5 점으로 가장 낮았는데, 이 같은 경향은 숙성 전 기간 동안 유사한 경향을 나타내었다(p<0.05). 이상의 결과로부터 맛있는 동치미 제조를 위한 순무는 강화도 고유의 자색순무에 중국산 청색 순무가 지닌 높은 당도와 단단한 조직감을 나타내는 특성을 지닌 품종이 적합하다고 생각된다.

New type yogurt base were prepared from milk added with skim milk powder or purple sweet potato, and fermented by lactic acid bacteria (Streptococcus thermophilus and Bifidobacterium infantis, 1:1, v/v). The yogurt proudcts were evaluated for acid production(pH, titratiable acidity), number of viable cell, viscosity, sensory properties, and color value. The composition of some organic acids was also analyzed by GC. The acid production slightly decrerased by addition with purple sweet potato. There was no significant difference in viable cell counts between control (yogurt added with only skim milk powder) and yogurt added with purple sweet potato, and viable cell counts of all samples were above 9.08 log cfu/ml. Viscosity of yogurt added with purple sweet potato(36,800∼46,000 centipoise) was higher than that of yogurt added with only skim milk powder(32,200 centipoise). The overall sensory score of yogurt added with purple sweet potato(38.6%, dry base) was the best of tested yogurt. The major organic acid of yogurt added with purple sweet potato was lactic acid. its content was 0.997∼1.203%. malic acid, succinic acid, oxalic acid, and fumaric acid were analyzed out a little. Lightness and yellowness decreased by addition with purple sweet potato but redness increased. Total color difference($\Delta$E) with yogurt addition with purple sweet potato and only skim milk powder were very high(above 11.46).

This study was performed to evaluate the quality characteristics and antioxidative activities of cookies prepared with different amounts of purple sweet potato powder. Moisture and crude ash contents were lowest in the control group followed in order by the 10%, 20%, and 30% purple sweet potato powder addition groups. The lightness and yellowness values measured by Hunter color system decreased based on the amount of purple sweet potato powder concentration added to cookies. The total phenolic compound and anthocyanin contents were the highest in 30% purple sweet potato powder added cookies. The DPPH radical scavenging activity of 30% purple sweet potato powder added cookies showed the highest values among groups. In the sensory evaluation, the scores for taste, texture and overall preference were significantly highest in cookies with 10% and 20% purple sweet potato powder. Considering the scores of antioxidant activity and sensory evaluation, the concentration of between 10% and 20% addition of purple sweet potato powder would be ideal for development of functional cookies.

This study was performed to investigate the quality characteristics of yanggeng added with Purple Sweet Potato. The yanggeng was prepared with purple sweet potato, Agar, Sugar and Salt. The yanggeng is made with various levels(0, 2, 4, 6, 8%) of purple sweet potato added. Hunter's color value, texture profile analysis, and sensory characteristics of purple sweet potato yanggeng were examined. The addition of purple sweet potato has tendency to decrease the water content of yanggeng. As the content of purple sweet potato increased, the lightness(L) and yellowness(b) decreased and redness(a) increased. In texture profile analysis, hardness decreased with increasing purple sweet potato content. Cohesiveness and springiness didn't showed significant differences according to amount of purple sweet potato. The results of the sensory evaluation showed that the sweetness, softness and overall acceptability were the highest scores at yanggeng containing 4% level of purple sweet potato. In conclusion, the result shows that the yanggeng with 4% of purple sweet potato is the best.
