To improve functionality of rice, we manufactured mixed cereals and mixed cereals with taste materials and evaluated their antioxidant component (ascorbic acid, tocopherols, polyphenols and flavonoids) contents and sensory evaluation. Ascorbic acid content in water extract of the control was 6.68 mg%, and mixed cereals were 18.23 and 21.84 mg%, respectively. Ascorbic acid content in methanol extract of the control was lower than those of mixed cereals too. ${\beta}$-Tocopherol was the only tocopherol detected in the control. However, tocopherols detected in mixed cereals were ${\alpha}$-, ${\beta}$-. ${\gamma}$-, ${\delta}$-tocopherol and ${\alpha}$-, ${\gamma}$-tocotrienol, with a highest content of ${\gamma}$-tocopherol. Total tocophenols content of the control was 1.26 mg%, whereas, those of mixed cereals were 19.24 and 39.32 mg%, respectively. Polyphenols contents in water extract of the control was 2.20 mg%, and mixed cereals were 14.38 and 21.91 mg%, respectively. In addition, polyphenols contents in methanol extract of mixed cereals were higher than that of the control, too. Flavonoids were undetected in water extract of the control, but flavonoids contents of mixed cereals were 42.45 and 32.54 mg%, respectively. In methanol extracts, flavonoids contents of the control and mixed cereals were not significantly different. The sensory parameters including taste, flavor, color, texture and overall acceptance of control were lower than those of mixed cereals. Especially, mixed cereals with taste materials was the highest acceptance.

Six types of mixed cereals powder were prepared using different mixing ratios of barley, proso millet, sorghum, and adlay, and their nutritional components and functionalities were analyzed. The mixed cereals powders contained high levels of crude protein. The free amino acid and mineral contents of Sample E were the highest among all the samples. Fructose, glucose, sucrose, and maltose were detected as the four major free sugars in all the mixed cereals powders, and Sample D had the highest amount of reducing sugar among all the samples. The total polyphenol and total flavonoid contents of Sample F were significantly higher than those of the other samples. Sample C showed the highest level of DPPH radical scavenging activity and reducing power. As for the ABTS radical scavenging activity, the $IC_{50}$ of Sample D was the lowest among all the samples, but did not significantly differ from that of Sample C. Therefore, we suggest 2:2:1:1 (in Sample D) as the best mixing ratio of barley, proso millet, sorghum, and adlay to produce a mixed cereals powder with excellent nutritional value and antioxidant activities.

We conducted this study to investigate the quality characteristics of extruded noodles(EN) mixed with cereals. The EN were evaluated for cooking properties(weight, water absorption, volume, and turbidity), Hunter's color values, texture characteristics, and sensory characteristics. The cooked weight, water absorption, and volume of the cooked EN were significantly decreased relative to that of control noodles, whereas the turbidity increased. Hunter's color L- and b-value of EN were decreased compare with the control noodles, but a-value was increased. Hunter's color L-value of cooked EN was increased, whereas a- and b-value was increased. The texture characteristics(hardness, adhesiveness, springiness, gumminess, and chewiness) of the cooked EN-2 and EN-3 were similar to the cooked control noodles. A sensory characteristics (appearance, flavor, texture during mastication, taste, and overall quality) of EN-1 were significantly decreased relative to that of control noodles, but EN-2 and EN-3 was not different to control noodles. As the results of this study indicate that extrusion processing could be used to make the EN mixed with cereals.

In this study, the pesticide residues in 106 commercial cereal grains were monitored from February to July 2021. For the investigation, 40 domestic and 66 imported products from large, small-to-medium sized offline and online distribution channels, were collected and analyzed by using the multiresidue method for 341 pesticides on GC/ECD, GC/NPD, GC/MSMS, UPLC/PDA, HPLC/FLD, LC/MSMS. Pesticides were detected in total of 8 samples (7.5%), of which one was from big box retailers, two from small and medium-sized distribution stores, and five from online shopping mall. Five (4.7%) samples were found to have pesticide residues greater than the maximum residue limits (MRLs). The detected pesticides in kidney beans (1 case), mung beans (6 cases), and sorghum (1 case), were MGK-264, chlorpyrifos, thiamethoxam, malathion, piperonyl butoxide, and pirimiphos-methyl. Specifically, an excessive amount of thiamethoxam was found from the imported mung bean (5 cases).

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the functional characteristics of fermented mixed grain beverages obtained using different microbial species and to evaluate their suitability for consumption. Various fermented mixed grain beverages were prepared through fermentation with Aspergillus (A.) oryzae CF1003 (A), A. acidus KACC46420 (B), Rhizopus (R.) delemar KACC46149 (C), R. oryzae KACC45714 (D), R. oryzae KACC46148 (E), A-E mixed strains (F), A. oryzae CF1001 (G), A. acidus CF1005 (H) and A+H mixed strains (I). The visual appearance, flavor, taste, and the antioxidant capacity of each fermented beverage were then assessed. The chromaticity and aesthetic quality of the fermented beverage was measured and all fermented beverages appeared yellow. The C-, G-, H- and I-fermented beverages received scores of 3.319, 3.206, 3.170 and 3.025 points, respectively, following a sensory evaluation, while the others received less than 3 points. The polyphenol content of the different beverages were similar, while the flavonoid content significantly differed. In particular, the flavonoid content of the C- and E-fermented beverages was significantly higher than other beverages. Although the electron donating ability and reducing power of the fermented beverages was very low, the superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activity of all beverages (except the E-fermented beverage) increased in a concentration-dependent manner. Specifically, the SOD-like activity from the F-fermented beverage at 10,000 ppm was more than 50%. Interestingly, the antioxidant activities of the beverages were unrelated to their polyphenol or flavonoid levels. This study also found that the aesthetic qualities of G- and H-fermented beverages were the highest and that this was completely independent of their antioxidant capacity. Therefore, our results suggest that further studies are required to develop mixed grain-derived fermented beverages that can also fulfill a useful functional purpose.

This study examined the factors for sorting miscellaneous cereal crops using a rice-sorting device by analyzing the physical characteristics according to the moisture content. The initial moisture contents of miscellaneous cereal were 16.3, 19.8, and 16.5%, respectively. The samples were used in the experiment after drying to five levels. The width, length, and area of the samples increased with increasing moisture content except for the roundness, and all the prediction models were developed with a first-order linear equation. The bulk density of Italian millet and sorghum increased with increasing moisture content, whereas the bulk density of common millet was unaffected by the change in moisture content. The terminal velocity of the samples increased with increasing moisture content, and a first-order linear equation was used to develop the prediction models. The measured physical properties of the miscellaneous cereal crops based on the changes in the moisture content could be expressed using a first-order experimental model equation. Therefore, the rice-sorting device could be applied to the terminal velocity, but the other device applying the geometrical characteristics and bulk density was required to change the design of the process depending on the type of grain.
