To industrialize the Korean traditional Kochujang, we investigated the process and changes of chemical components of glutineous rice Kochujang and barley Kochujang, which are our major traditional Kochujangs. We prepared traditional glutineous rice Kochujang and barley one in Sunchang and Keosan, respectively. To establish the optimal aging time, we investigated changes of the chemical components and sensory evaluation of the Kochujang during fermentation of 180 days. Changes of chemical components of glutineous rice Kochujang were similar to those of barley Kochujang. The results of sensory evaluation on color, flavor, taste, texture and overall acceptibility indicated that glutineous rice Kochujang was preferred to barley one, and the highest score was obtained at the aging of $90{\sim}120$ days for both Kochujangs. However, we established that the optimal aging time was 150 days by considering changes of permissible chemical components and the results of sensory evaluation at the same time.

Grapefruit seed extract powder (GFSEP), which was made with grapefruit seed extract and calcium carbonate, was investigated to retard the fermentation rate. The mixing ratios of GFSEP to salted Chinese cabbage were 0.1, 0.3 and 0.5％. Quality characteristics of kimchi such as pH, titratable acidity, reducing sugar content and microbial loads were measured during fermentation at 10$^{\circ}C$. pH and reducing sugar content of control and kimchi sample with 0.1％ GFSEP showed decreases until 10 days, and then attained to stabilized levels. Kimchi samples with 0.3％ and 0.5％ GFSEP maintained a higher pH and reducing sugar content, while microbial load was lower than others. Based on the pH and tit ratable acidity, kimchi samples with GFSEP prolong the shelf life about 3～10 days.

고추장의 품질을 향상시키고 재래식 전통 고추장과 유사한 맛을 지닌 고추장을 만들기 위해 재래식 전통 고추장에서 분리한 B.licheniformis 균주와 공장에서 대량 생산을 위해 개량해온 A. oryzae와, 비교적 호염성이며 알콜 발효 능력이 우수한 S.rouxii를 혼용하여 고추장을 담근 후 180일까지의 각 고추장의 이화학적 특성 변화를 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 단도는 모든 구에서 숙성 30일 까지 급격히 증가한 후 180일까지 거의 일정한 수준을 유지하였으며, 곰팡이 단용구에 비해 고초균과 효모 혼용구에서 숙성 기간 동안 높은 적정산도 값을 보였다. 조단백질은 숙성 기간 동안 대조구에서는 숙성 60일까지 약간 증가한 후 숙성 120일까지 급격히 감소하였으며 고초균 혼용구와 효모 첨가구는 숙성 90일 이후 감소한 후 숙성 120일 이후부터는 거의 변화가 없었다. 숙성 90일 이후부터는 B. licheniformis와 효모 혼용구에서 A. oryzae 단용구보다 조단백질 함량이 높았다. 환원당은 세 구간 모두 숙성 60일 경까지는 증가하는 추세를 보였으며, A. oryzae 단용구보다 B.licheniformis 균주와의 혼용구에서 높은 수치를 보여주었다. 비휘발성 유기산은 숙성 기간이 경과하면서 증가하였고 가장 많이 검출된 유기산은 pyroglutamic acid와 citric acid의 순이었다. 따라서 고추장의 숙성 과정 중 이화학적 특성 변화의 측면에서 볼 때 고초균과 효모 혼용구로 제조된 고추장이 구수한 맛의 생성면에서 유용한 담금법인 것으로 사료된다.

The aging degree of Kimchi fermented at $4^{\circ}C$ for 29 days was evaluated by the correlation between the flavor and the acidity analysis. The Kimchi fermentation induced a gradual reduction in pH and an increase in acidity from $0.26\%$ (initial) to $1.15\%$ (29th day). Flavor pattern of the fermented Kimchi was obtained by the electronic nose system with 12 metal oxide sensors. Electronic nose analysis could differentiate the flavor profiles of Kimchi according to the fermentation periods, making 5 group in the principal component analysis (PCA) plot Therefore, aging degree of Kimchi could be differentiated by flavor patterns analysed by electronic nose.

This study was conducted to investigate the chemical characteristics of Gochujang with different amounts of sweet persimmon powder added during fermentation at $20^{\circ}C$ for 90 days, in an effort to improve its taste and organoleptic quality. The moisture content was shown to be inclined to increase in all the treatments throughout the fermentation. There was no significant difference between the paste with sweet persimmon powder and the control. The pH showed a tendency to decrease with increased fermentation time in all the samples during fermentation, keeping a pH range of 4.64-4.67 after 60 days of fermentation. On the contrary, the titratable acidity increased during fermentation, showing a level of 0.147-0.156 mg% in the paste with sweet persimmon powder on the 90th day of fermentation. The sugar content was shown to be $33.67-39.67^{\circ}Brix$ in the early stage of fermentation, revealing a tendency to in crease with an increase in the amount of sweet persimmon powder added. The amino-type nitrogen content was at the 241.27-245.47 mg% level in the early stage of fermentation, and appeared to be significantly high (p<0.05) in the treatments with 3 and 4% sweet persimmon powder added, respectively, after 60 days of fermentation. The content was within the range of 357.47-371.53 mg% on the 90 th day of fermentation in the final stage, showing an increase trend throughout the fermentation. The alcohol content gradually increased with an increase in fermentation time, showing a range of 0.94-0.10% on the 90th day of the final stage of fermentation. Moreover, the content was highest (0.96-0.108%) on the 70th day of fermentation, demonstrating a trend to slightly decline in all the treatments thereafter.

This study was carried out in order to analyze the changes in general compounds and sugars of traditional Korean soy sauce with varying Meju concentrations (Meju-water ratios of 1 : 4 and 1.3 : 4) and ripening periods (up to 2 years). Along with ripening period, pH decreased and titratable acidity, total acidity and crude protein contents increased, which were higher in 1.3 : 4 than in 1.4. Buffering power increased significantly with increasing ripening period. Crude fat content was higher in 1.3 : 4 than 1 : 4. Moisture content decreased and pure extract content increased significantly with increasing ripening period, which was high in 1.3 : 4. Salt contents increased with increasing ripening period, but decreasd in soy sauce ripened for 2 years. As the result of sugar analysis, reducing sugar showed slow increase with increasing ripening period. Among detected free sugars, galactose was present in the highest concentration and the rest were in the sequence of glucose, fructose. Total free sugar content was highest in soy sauce ripened for 150days in 1 : 4 and 210 days in 1.3 : 4.

Kochujang was prepared with various concentrations of Maesil extracts (0, 1, 2, and 5%) and the physicochemical characteristics of Maesil extracts added Kochujang ('Maesil Kochujang') were investigated during aging of 100 days. pH decreased slightly during aging. Titratable acidity, on the other hand, increased with aging, reaching at the highest level at the 40 days of aging and then decreased slowly. The changes of moisture content were complicated in the beginning, but after 60 days it increased slowly. The water activity decreased but salt concentration increased consistently in all samples during aging. L* and a*-values decreased during aging and L*, a*, and b*-values decreased significantly with high amount of Maesil extract in the sample. Soluble solid contents increased slowly while reducing sugar contents increased for up to 40 days and then decreased. Amino nitrogen contents increased steadily after 40 days of aging and they reached at $230.00{\sim}246.00mg%$ upon 100 days of aging.

The purpose of this study was to assess the influence of ageing time on the meat quality and sensory characteristics of longissimus muscle in Jeju horses. Twenty four horses were slaughtered after 16hr fasting. Longissimus muscle was separated from the left half of the carcass after 24hr chilling. The muscle was sliced into 3cm-thick steaks for analysis. Steaks were vacuum packaged and aged at around 4℃ for 1, 3, 7, 12, 18 and 25 days respectively. Longissimus muscle pH was not influenced by ageing (P>0.05). But shear force values of the muscle decreased during ageing time (P<0.05). Water holding capacity, color characteristics, cooking loss and purge loss considerably increased as the ageing time increased (P<0.05). Also ageing had a very important effect on flavor, juiciness, tenderness and palatability characteristics (P<0.05) evaluated by the panel. Flavor and palatability were the most acceptable when the ageing time was 7 days, whereas, juiciness was 12 days. These results suggest that ageing improves the quality of horsemeat by increasing the meat tenderness, water holding capacity and sensory characteristics. Therefore Jeju horse meat need 7-12 days ageing period to obtain an optimum acceptance.
