The effect of several hydrocolloids on the rheological behavior of wheat flour was investigated. The influence of the selected hydrocolloids (alginate, carrageenan, CMC, guar, locustbean and xanthan) on wheat flour was tested by using two different techniques; amylograph and texture analyzer. In order to have a general overview of their effects hydrocolloids were chosen from different sources implying a broad diversity of chemical structures. The hydrocolloid addition decreased the brightness(L) but increased yellowness(b). The interaction between hydrocolloid and flour produces a slight modification of the amylogram parameters, being the most clearly affected parameter breakdown, which is increased by carrageenan, guar and xanthan. Hardness and cutting force were augmented by hydrocolloid addition, while springeness was decreased except guar and locustbean. In summary, when looking for the improvement of the noodle texture, guar, locustbean are the best candidate additives due to their effects on pasting and texture properties. These hydrocolloids increase the hardness, cutting force, gumness, chew-ness, so were thought to increase the eating quality. So, each tested hydrocolloid affected in a different way the rheological properties of wheat flour, the results obtained are important for the appropriate use of these hydrocolloid as ingredients in the noodle making process.

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of moisture content and screw speed on the physical properties of extruded soy protein isolate (SPI). Expansion index, water absorption index, texture, integrity index, color, and nitrogen solubility index of extruded SPI were analyzed to determine the relationship with extrusion conditions. Extrusion conditions were moisture content (40, 50, and 60%) at a fixed die temperature ($140^{\circ}C$) and screw speed (250 rpm). The other extrusion conditions were screw speed (150, 250, and 330 rpm) at a fixed moisture content (55%) and die temperature ($140^{\circ}C$). Specific mechanical energy (SME) input decreased as moisture content increased from 40 to 60%. However, SME input increased as screw speed increased from 150 to 330 rpm. Expansion ratio and piece density decreased as moisture content and screw speed increased, and specific length increased as moisture content and screw speed increased. The extruded SPI at 40% moisture content had higher water absorption index, texture, and color differences than those of the extruded SPI at other moisture contents (50 and 60%). however, the extruded SPI at 40% moisture content had lower integrity index and cutting strength than those of the extruded SPI at other moisture contents (50 and 60%). In conclusion, the physical properties of extruded SPI were more affected by moisture content than screw speed.

We investigated the quality and antioxidant activities of sponge cake prepared containing 1-5% of green tea powder (GT). The water content in the cake increased with an increase in the amount of GT added. Although the hardness and springiness of the rice sponge cake increased, the adhesiveness decreased with increasing the level of GT. The cohesiveness, chewiness, and resilience of the rice sponge cake with GT were similar to those of the control. Chromaticity determination revealed that lightness, redness, and yellowness of the crust decreased with increasing GT content. Total polyphenol and flavonoid contents increased proportionally with increasing GT level. Antioxidant activity, measured by DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging as well as reducing power activities, was significantly higher in the rice sponge cake with GT than in the control. Sensory evaluation determined that addition of 1-3% GT to the rice sponge cake maintained the color, taste, texture, flavor, and overall acceptance similar to that of the control.

Recent studies have revealed that collagen peptide plays a protective role on skin by improving the activity of antioxidants and acts as an inducer of skin regeneration. To evaluate the efficacy of low molecular weight collagen peptide for skin recovery after non-ablative 1550 nm fractional photothermolysis laser. 10 volunteers were randomly divided into two groups. Both control and experimental groups received fractional photothermolysis treatment. In the experimental group, 5 subjects received oral collagen peptide 1,000 mg/day for 8 weeks. Before and after the treatment, we measured elastic recovery of skin, transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and erythema index (EI) for each patients. The evaluation of clinical results showed that elastic recovery of skin is higher in the experimental group than the control group (p < 0.05). TEWL have no significancy between two groups and erythema rapidly disappeared in the experimental group. On the quartile grading scale, the mean patient satisfaction 4 weeks after the fractional photothermolysis treatment was 2.0 in experimental group and 1.2 in control group. The low molecular weight collagen peptide appears to be an effective conservative therapy for skin recovery after non-ablative 1550 nm fractional photothermolysis treatment.

This study was conducted to investigate quality characteristics of white pan bread with Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder having functional components. Mixograph, pH, TPA, volume, specific volume, moisture, CrumbScan, color value, sensory evaluation and shelf-life test were performed on the white pan bread with Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder. The obtained results are as follows. Mixogram analysis results showed that the dough with Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder was suitable for baking quality. The more Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder was added in the dough, the higher dough pH was and the lower pH values after fermentation and of the final productwere. TPA analysis results showed that higher amounts of Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder resulted in increased hardness, chewiness, and gumminess of the white pan bread. Volume and specific volume of white pan bread were decreased with increased amounts of Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder. CrumbScan images showed that fineness of grain, crust thickness, and volume of the bread were significantly different depending on the amount of Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder. While color value analysis showed that increasing the amount of Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder resulted in low L and a values. The results of the acceptance test showed that CLP3 had better scores in the appearance and texture characteristics than the control, while taste and overall acceptance were higher in the CLP2 compared with the control. According to the results of the shelf-life test, the white pan bread with 1~2% of Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder had a significantly lower hardness when compared with the control. It was judged that a lower amount of Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder could help in maintaining the softness of bread crumbs. Moisture content in the white pan bread decreased with the increased amounts of Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder, but there were no significant differences among specimens.

Quality characteristics of strawberry jams made of 2 different strawberry cultivars, Bogyo-joseng and Suhong, with 25, 50, 75, 100% fructo-oligosaccharide in place of sucrose were evaluated. Moisture content of Suhong jam was higher than Bogyo-joseng jam. pH of Bogyo-joseng and Suhong jam was not different. The lightness, redness and yellow-ness of Bogyo-joseoung jam were higher than those of Suhong jam. Spreadmeter value of jams decreased with addition of fructo-oligosaccharide. The sweetness of Suhong jam was higher than Bogyo-joseng. Reducing sugar content of Suhong jam was higher than Bogyo-joseng jam. More of fructo-oligosaccharide added, reducing sugar content of jam increased. Residual anthocyanin in Bogyo-joseng strawberry jam was decreased by addition of fructo-oligosaccharide. However, the residual anthocyanin content of Suhong strawberry jams with fructo-oligosaccharide was lower than that of sugar-only control jam with an exception of 50% fructo-oli-gosaccharide jam. The 50% fructo-oligosaccharide jam had a higher residual anthocyanin content than sugar-only jam. As the addition rate of fructo-oligosaccharide increased, springiness and cohesiveness of jam increased, while resilience decreased. In sensory evaluation, Bogyo-joseng strawberry jams obtained highest score with 50% fructo-oligosaccharide, while Suhong strawberry jam was favored most with 25% fructo-oligosaccharide.

The effects of aronia powder on the rheological and sensory characteristics of Sulgidduk were investigated. The moisture content of Sulgidduk ranged from 40.86 to 44.40%; however, addition of aronia powder to Sulgidduk tended to decrease its moisture content. With regard to the rheological properties, the addition of aronia powder decreased the hardness, springiness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, chewiness, gumminess, and brittleness of Sulgidduk. Chromaticity determination revealed a decrease in L and b values, while the a value increased with the increasing amounts of aronia powder. Total polyphenol, total flavonoid and total anthocyanin contents increased with the increasing amounts of aronia powder. Antioxidant activity, measured by DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities, was significantly higher than that of the control, and increased proportionally with the amount of aronia powder. During 4 day storage, the growth of total aerobic colony and coliform content significantly decreased with increasing levels of aronia powder in Sulgidduk. Sensory evaluation demonstrated the best score in color, taste and overall acceptance when aronia powder was added at 5% of rice powder. These results suggest that 5% aronia powder can be added for the preparation of Sulgidduk.
