The purpose of this study was to examine the qualities of optimized muffins with germinated brown rice soaked in mycelial culture broth of Phellinuslinteus (GBRP) using response surface methodology. Firstly, general compositions of optimized muffins with GBRP were higher than that of control and total sugar contents were similar. However, the total free amino acid and constitutional amino acid contents except for GABA were lower than those of control. Starch hydrolysis in control was higher than in optimized muffins with GBRP, whereas protein digestibility and protein efficiency ratio were not. The weights of optimized muffins with GBRP were higher than that of control (p<0.01), whereas height (p<0.01) and pH (p<0.001) were similar. The hardness (p<0.05) and chewiness (p<0.05) of optimized muffins with GBRP were higher compared to control; adhesiveness, springiness, and gumminess were similar, but cohesiveness (p<0.01) was not. The flavor (p<0.05) and taste (p<0.01) of optimized muffins with GBRP were higher than those of control; appearance, texture and overall acceptability were similar, but color (p<0.05) was not. The total polyphenol contents (p<0.01), DPPH radical scavenging activity (p<0.01), and superoxide dismutase-like activity (p<0.05) of optimized muffins with GBRP were higher than those of control, but nitrite scavenging activity was similar.

To improve the food quality of traditional Jeung-pyun(Korean fermenfed rice cake), effect of mixed ingredients on the quality of protein enriched product was studied. Changes were evaluated in chemical and textural properties of protein enriched Jeung-pyun altered by fermentation time, temperature, and steaming time. The maximum volume wxpansion was noted in dough mixed with rice flour(100 g), soy flour(25 g), sucrose(20 g), Tak-ju(50 ml) and water(10 ml), and then fermented at $35^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours. Soy protein isolate(SPI) enriched rice dough had a maximum expanded volume when 15g(w/w) of SPI, 20g(w/w) of sucrose, 60ml(v/w) of Tak-ju and 50ml(v/w) of water added into 100g rice flour, and then fermented at $30^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours. Steaming after fermentation made the smaller volume of bulk $45^{\circ}C$-50% of the initial volume be showed just after fermentation. Protein enriched Jeung-pyun prepared under the maximal volume endowing conditions showed the best protein quality(protein digestibility and protein efficiency ratio) and starch structure which was susceptible towards enzyme reaction. The improved starch quality of protein enriched Jeung-pyun could be confirmed by reducing power, gelatinization degree and amylose content. Jeung-pyun riched with soy flour at 20% level or with SPI at 5% showed the best overall quality by sensory and textural property but it had a problem in browning.

Rice flours from five rice (Oryza sativa L.) varieties with different amylose content were prepared by both wet and dry milling processes. The moisture content of wet-milled rice flours (WMR) was approximately three-times higher than that of dry-milled rice flours (DMR). Water absorption index (WAI), water solubility index (WSI), and swelling power (SP) increased in proportion to temperature. The WAI, WSI and SP values of DMR were higher than those of WMR. Baeokchal (BOC), which is a waxy rice cultivar, had a significantly high WSI value. Pasting properties of DMR, except for the BOC cultivar, resulted in an increase in peak, trough, final, and setback viscosities. The levels of resistant starch in four cultivars, except for Dodamssal (DDS), were under 1%, irrespective of the milling process, whereas the resistant starch contents of DMR and WMR in DDS were 9.18% and 6.27%, respectively. In vitro digestibility of WMR was higher than that of DMR, and the estimated glycemic index of the rice flour varieties ranged from 57.6 to 81.3. Damaged starch content of WMR was less than that of DMR; in addition, a negative correlation was observed between the amylose and damaged starch contents of WMR. These results suggest that the properties of rice flour vary depending on the milling method and flour variety, and could be a reference for selecting the appropriate processing method.

This study was conducted to investigate the possibility of replacing imported Timothy hay (TH) with domestic Italian ryegrass silage (IRGS) as a horse feed considering feed quality, nutrient digestibility and feed price. Two experimental diets (TH and IRGS) were fed to six-headed Thoroughbred (body weight, 475.7±33.3kg) of the Korea Racing Authority of Wondang Stud Farm. The 3 head animals were assigned to Control group (TH) and Treatment group (IRGS), respectively. The nutrient digestibility was determined by the total collection method. IRGS is enough for using as a horse feed because its Relative feed value(RFV) was higher than TH and its fermentation quality is suitable for horses. Although no difference was observed in nutrient digestibility, Total digestible nutrients(TDN), and Digestible energy(DE) between Control and Treatment group (p>0.05), the fact that price of IRGS was much lower (53.7~62.4%) than that of TH indicates IRGS has competitive advantage over TH as a horse forage feed. The present study indicates that IRGS can be fully replaced with TH due to its superior economic value even though the similarity of its nutrient digestibility, TDN, and DE to TH.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of mushroom composition (0, 4, 8, and 12%) on the quality characteristics of an extruded meat analog. The meat analog blend was isolated soy protein, wheat gluten, and corn starch (50:40:10). The extrusion condition was set to 55% feed moisture, 170℃ barrel temperature, and 150 screw speed by high moisture extrusion using a twin-screw extruder equipped with a cooling die. The integrity index, hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, chewiness, and cutting strength of the meat analog increased with the increasing mushroom content, while its water holding capacity and nitrogen solubility index (NSI) decreased. The protein digestibility decreased with the increasing mushroom content, while the DPPH radical scavenging activity significantly increased. In conclusion, the incorporation of mushrooms into the investigated meat analog enhanced its texture and antioxidant level.

The objectives of this study was to determine whether a new physically modified cornstarch by ultra-fine- or nanoscale pulverizer to reduce particle size offers better bioactive function than native cornstarch in weanling Sprague-Dawley rats. Male weaning Sprague-Dawley rats were fed diets containing native cornstarch (NAC), ultra fine pulverized cornstarch (UFC) or nano-scale pulverized cornstarch (NSC) for 4 weeks. In vitro rate of starch hydrolysis, growth performance, organ weight, intestine length intestinal proliferation and the fermentation by Bifidobacterium of rat cecum were evaluated. The diet with reduced particle size (UFC or NSC) significantly increased body weight gain and organ weight. Feed efficiency was increased in NSC fed rats and was not affected in UFC fed rats. Intestinal proliferation was decreased in NSC group. Reduction of particle size also increased cecal short chain fatty acid concentration and the growth and acidifying activity of Bifidobacterium. It is concluded that a reduction of particle size of starch granules by physically modification may increase growing performance and gut function.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of storage temperature(5$\^{C}$ and 25$\^{C}$) and time(1, 24, 48 and 72hours) on the retrogradation characteristics of mungbean starch gels by using differential scanning calorimeter, rapid visco-analyzer, $\beta$-amylase method, X-ray diffractometer and scanning electron microscope. Endothermic peaks of gels stored at 5$\^{C}$ were shifted to the lower temperature than those stored at 25$\^{C}$ and endothermic enthalpy of gels stored at 5$\^{C}$ was greater than that stored at 25$\^{C}$. DSC thermograms showed that the retrogradation rate of gels stored at 5$\^{C}$ was higher than that shored at 25$\^{C}$. The pasting properties of the gels such as peak viscosity and final viscosity increased with increasing storage time except the gels stored at 25$\^{C}$ for 72 hours and this trend was more apparent at the storage temperature of 5$\^{C}$. The digestibility measured by $\beta$-amylase method decreased with increasing storage time and this trend was more apparent at the storage temperature of 5$\^{C}$. X-ray diffraction patterns of the gels stored at 5$\^{C}$ showed more distinct peak than those stored at 25$\^{C}$, but no difference was detected by the storage time. The microstucture of all the gels showed a well developed three dimensional network The network structure of the gels stored at 25$\^{C}$ formed a thick matrix after 72 hours and those stored at 5$\^{C}$ from the early stage of storage.
