In order to produce the high quality rehydrated acorn Mook(Korean tradition gel flood) that enhance acceptability, the optimum condition was investigated for the rehydration process of dried Monk as salt concentration(0, 1, 2%), temperature(20, 70, 80, 90$^{\circ}C$) and time. The estimation of moisture gain, rehydration efficiency was analyzed statistically. The surface color md seniory evaluation were undertaken to evaluate the rehydrated Mook quality The optimum rehydration time was decided to 15 minutes and it takes 3 minutes for the cooling tilde. The moisture gain increased as the rehydration temperature increase. And the moisture gain and moisture gain rate were higher at 1% salt solution than other concentration. As the rehydration efficiency, surface color and sensory properties of rehydrated Mook, 1% salt treatment was superior.

In order to examine the effect of rehydration methods on viability after freeze-drying of Streptomyces aureofaciens, we labeled the DNA of S. aureofaciens with $^3H-adenine$. Extracellular radioactivity levels appeared to be high in the rehydrated solutions after freeze-drying than freezing-thawing. In effects of rehydration after freeze-drying, the viability of the cell appeared about 20% in case of with admitting air at single ampule, but that of which appeared about 91% in case of without admitting air at double ampule. Thus, S. aureofaciens cells were damaged during the process of rehydration after freeze-drying.

Quality changes of dried sea cucumber (Stichopusjaponicus) after applying a cyclic rehydration and retorting process were investigated during 4 weeks of storage. The length, volume, and weight of dried sea cucumber increased significantly as the number of rehydration cycles increased. Sea cucumber (SC) was bottled in the glass jar and a retort thermal process ($121.1^{\circ}C$, 0.15 MPa) was applied. The total thermal processing time (TTT) was 24 min based on the temperature at the cold point. The size and texture of retorted SC were significantly changed until the first week of storage. However, regardless of the number of rehydration cycles, the size and texture of samples at different rehydration cycles showed no significant difference during the whole storage. The length, volume, weight, rehydration ratio ($R_R$), hardness, and chewiness at the maximum degree of swelling during rehydration of dried SC were estimated as 100.86 mm, 38.62 mL, 41.05 g, 6.39 of $R_R$, $249.19g_f$, and 4.05 mJ, respectively.

The objectives of this study are to establish efficient pretreatment concentration and rehydration process for the production of the high quality of freeze-dried Mook, a traditional gel food in Korea, as an instant food. Effect of immersion in sucrose solution as pretreatment before freeze-drying on the rehydration efficiency and quality characteristics was studied. The rehydration efficiency of non-treated Mook was the highest. The rehydration efficiency increased as the concentration of sucrose increased. The texture of rehydrated Mook treated in sucrose solution was decreased with increase in rehydration temperature. The Mook treated at 60% sucrose solution was somewhat similar to the market selling Mook in the quality and the treatment prevented color and texture degradation.

In drying process, to minimize the quality degradation by improved drying process and pretreatment methods, carrots, cabbages and radishes were dried and rehydrated. Physico-chemical properties of product were analyzed to determine the optimum pretreatment method and drying models were applied to explain drying mechanisms. Microwave, steam and water were used prior to drying as blanching method. In consideration of physical properties, optimum treatment time was decided that microwave was 1 min, steam and water were each 10 min. Control, steam, water, microwave and osmotic dehydration were treated prior to drying as pretreatment individually, osmotic dehydration was lower than the other treatmemt in drying efficiency, but carotene content was higher than the others. The effect continued after rehydration. Ten panelists tested dried and rehydrated carrots. After rehydration, the quality of air dried product with osmotic dehydration was superior to freeze dried without treatment. The fittness of drying models were conducted in order to explain the mechanism of drying each process. Quadratic model was most fittable to explain during drying. However, in rehydration process, no fittable model was found.

This study evaluated the in vitro radical scavenging and ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activities of dried daraesoon (shoot of hardy kiwi) during cooking involving rehydration and subsequent heating at $180^{\circ}C$ with or without perilla oil. Pigments and antioxidants were quantified by HPLC and spectrophotometry. Unlike the tocopherol content, the polyphenol, flavonoid, chlorophyll, and carotenoid contents as well as the DPPH radical scavenging and ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activities of daraesoon extract were significantly decreased by rehydration (p<0.05). Heating the rehydrated daraesoon for 10 or 20 min increased its radical scavenging activity irrespective of perilla oil addition, whereas the ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activity increased significantly only after heating with perilla oil (p<0.05). During cooking, changes in both activities showed a similar pattern to that showed by polyphenol content changes. These results suggest that the health functionality of daraesoon can be enhanced by an appropriate cooking process that retains polyphenols.

The physical characteristics changes of carrots during drying were studied to minimize the quality degradation by applying improved drying process and pretreatment method. Physico-chemical properties of the product were analyzed, and then, drying mechanisms were explained by diffusion coefficients and drying models. In hot air drying process, the drying and rehydration efficiencies were high at low relative humidity and high temperature. Browning degree and specific volume also showed similar trend to drying efficiency. Diffusion coefficient, which describes moisture transfer, was also high at low relative humidity and at high temperature. It was verified using. Arrhenius equation that drying process was influenced by temperature. It was also observed during experiment that temperature changes were more effective in drying than relative humidity changes. Quadratic model was the most fittable in explaining the process. As a result of analyzing the experimental data with respect to the drying time, the contents of carotene and moisture could be modeled as a polynomial. As the air velocity increased, drying performance and rehydration efficiency increased.

The present study aimed at investigating how those students who retook college entrance examination(or RCEE) appreciate the experience. For this purpose, three persons from each cell at the 2(satisfaction with college life: high vs. low) by 2 (evaluation of RCEE: positive vs. negative) combination among those who participated in Lee and Jung study (2014) were selected and were interviewed. Qualitative data analysis based on phenomenological approach produced seven categories and 19 subcategories, which were grouped on the temporal dimension. First, when they were at the midst of this RCEE experience, the college students saw this as adversity that should be overcome while they underwent a limit of pain they could bear. Second, the college students evaluated this experience as upgrading my life with wound left unseen. Finally, they assigned to both of the positive and negative aspects of RCEE experience the meaning that the experience made them accept themselves as they were. Given these results, implications, limitations of this study were discussed.

In order to examine the viability depending on rehydration process and membrane injury of Nocardia mediterranei upon lyophilization, We labeled $3^H$-thymidine in deoxyribonucleic acid of N. mediterrranei to obtain information on the mechanisms of injury caused by lyophilization. Suspensions of rehydrated cells were incubated with added DNase in a buffer solution. Extracellular radioactivity levels appeared to be high in the rehydrated solutions after lyophilization than freezing-thawing. Thus, the membrane systems were injured by lyophilization, but not ovenvhelmed. These considerations were confirmed by electron microscopy. In effects of rehydration, the cell membrane was seriously damaged by strong atmospheric pressure as soon as the inner ampule was opened, but this was not the case without admitting air under vacuum. N. rnediterranei cells, with no additives, were lyophilized and reconstituted without admitting air, virtually about 84% of the cells were viable.
