This study was conducted to investigate the effects of the addition of cordyceps ochraceostromat, conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) and silkworm cocoon on the quality and storage characteristics of pork sausage manufactured by MDCM (mechanically deboned chicken meat) recovered protein. The samples were divided into 5 groups (sausage made from pork ham; control, 40% of MDCM recovered protein to replace pork ham; T1, 40% of MDCM recovered protein to replace pork ham with 0.1% cordyceps ochraceostromat; T2, 40% of MDCM recovered protein to replace pork ham with 0.1% CLA; T3, and 40% of MDCM recovered protein to replace pork ham with 0.1% silkworm cocoon; T4). The control sample had a higher moisture and protein contents and lower fat content than the other samples during 4 weeks of storage at $4^{\circ}C$ The treatment samples had lower lightness and higher redness values than the control (p<0.05). Hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness were significantly lower in the treatment samples than the control (p<0.05). All sausage samples showed a significant increase in thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), volatile basic nitrogen, and total plate counts during the storage time (p<0.05). In addition, the MDCM treatment samples had higher TBARS values than the control, but the VBN value of the treatment samples was lower than the control after the 4 weeks storage period.

This study investigated the effects of dietary supplementation of fermented apple pomace (FAP), fermented pear pomace (FPP), fermented orange pomace (FOP), and fermented Angelica keiskei Koidz pomace (FAKP) on performance, shelf life, fatty acid composition and cholesterol in broiler chickens. A total of 600, 1-day-old male broiler chicks (Cobb strain) were randomly divided into six groups with four replicates of 30 birds each. There were five treatment groups: control (C), FAP (1.0%, T1), FPP (1.0%, T2), FOP (1.0%, T3), and FAKP (1.0%, T4). The body weight of the broiler chickens fed FAP diet was higher (1,758 g) than the other treatments. There was no difference in the thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) in chicken meat between all groups at days 1, 3, and 5 of storage, while the FAP-supplemented group displayed lower TBARS values at day 7. There was no significant difference in fatty acid composition between the groups but the cholesterol content of chicken meat was lower than the control groups. These results suggest the possibility that FAP could be used as a functional feed to improvement the quality performance of broiler chickens.

In the present study, to determine the effects of terminal sire strains, carcass characteristics, yields of retail cut, and meat quality of 425 pigs were examined. Terminal sires were divided into five strains (D1, D2, B1, B2, and BD) based on the countries of origin and breeds. The strains D1 and D2 showed high grade 1+ appearance ratios and strains B1, B2, and D1 showed high appearance ratios of carcass yield grade A. As for the real retail cut yields of meat, strain D1 showed large real retail cut yields of meat in shoulder, rib, fore leg, loin, belly, tenderloin and hind leg. Moisture contents were significantly higher in strain B1, and protein and fat contents were significantly higher for strain D1 than in the other strains (p<0.05). Shear force values were significantly higher for strain B1 than in the other strains (p<0.05). For meat color properties, the lightness were significantly higher in strains D1, D2, and BD, and the yellowness were significantly higher in strains D1, D2, and BD relative to the other strains (p<0.05). In sensory evaluation, drip of strains D1 and D2 were significantly lower while marbling and overall acceptability were significantly higher in the other four strains (p<0.05). Therefore, when considering the results of the present study comprehensively, using strains D1 and D2 that showed high grade 1+ appearance ratios, large real retail cut yields of belly, significantly higher lightness and sensory evaluation will be helpful to the incomes of producers and farm households.

'Yeobong' strawberries were stored at $2^{\circ}C$ under controlled atmosphere (CA) containing the combinations of $O_2{\;}(3.8%)$ and $CO_2{\;}(10,{\;}15,{\;}20%)$ and air as control. Atmospheres of $3%{\;}O_2+15%{\;}CO_2$ and $8%{\;}O_2+15%{\;}CO_2$ reduced respiration and ethylene production rates. Fruits kept under CA conditions of 10% and 15% $CO_2$ were harder than those stored under 20% $CO_2$ and air. The CA conditions of 10% or 15% $CO_2$ maintained approximately 80% of vitamin C for 24 days. Redness were increased and then decreased, but the changing trends were not clear among the storage conditions. Anthocyanin contents in $3%{\;}O_2+15%{\;}CO_2$ and $8%{\;}O_2+15%{\;}CO_2$ were slightly increased for 16 days and then decreased thereafter, while anthocyanin content in air was rapidly increased for 8 days. After 16 days of storage, off-flavor were perceived in all CA storage. And strawberries stored in 20% $CO_2$ conditions were unacceptable after 20 days. The 20% $CO_2$ significantly affected off-flavor of strawberries, but there was no significant difference between 10% $CO_2$ and 15% $CO_2$ conditions. Ethanol which is in relation to off-flavor was higher with elevated $CO_2$ levels. Although CA conditions under $3%{\;}O_2+15%{\;}CO_2$ was effective in delaying the quality changes, there was high ethanol content compared to $8%{\;}O_2+15%{\;}CO_2$ condition. Strawberry kept under $8%{\;}O_2+15%{\;}CO_2$ was maintained the shelf-life for 24 days and the condition prolonged more $4{\sim}8$ days and 12 days than the other CA conditions and air, resectively.

To obtain the basic data for commercial 10% salted egg yolk for mayonnaise preparation, 3 types of egg yolks [pasteurized egg yolk (Yolk A)-not salted, pasteurized before salting (Yolk B)-salted, and pasteurized after salting (Yolk C)-salted] were prepared, and the changes in quality characteristics of these egg yolks with frozen storage were tested. The results obtained were as follows; Yolk A gelatinized during frozen storage, thus could not used for mayonnaise preparation. The viscosity of the egg yolk increased $3{\sim}5$ times after salting. Viscosity of the salted egg yolk increased with frozen storage time. Viscosity of Yolk B was higher at $-20^{\circ}C$ than $-15^{\circ}C$. Viscosity of Yolk C, however, was higher at $-15^{\circ}C$ than $-20^{\circ}C$. Frozen storage of pasteurized salted egg yolk showed some effects on the emulsification capacity. The effect, however, was smaller than that of unpasteurized salted egg yolk. Microbes of salted egg yolk were decreased with frozen storage, but there was no difference between Yolk B and Yolk C. It was suggested that commercially pasteurized 10% salted egg yolk for mayonnaise preparation can be successfully stored for 12 months at the temperature of $-15{\sim}-20^{\circ}C$.

This study was conducted to elucidate the most appropriate method to obtain auxotrophic mutants from Valsa ceratosperma, the causal fungus of apple canker, which may be used as a gene marker in detecting the transfer of the factors of avirulent strains to virulent strains. Among the 3 kinds of synthetic media tested, each have two formula for minimal and complete, the medium which has been used in study of Endothia parasitica (E. P medium) was turned out to be most appropriate for the growth of V. ceratosperma. A medium for single colony formation from pycnidiospore of this fungus was developed by adding 0.5% L - sorbose to the E. P minimal medium. The period of incubation in dark for preventing the photoreactivation after U. V irradiation was estimated as about 60hrs at which most of the spores become binucleate. Largest number of putative auxotrophs were obtained at about 50second of irradiation to the spores smeared on the medium for single colony formation, at which the survival rate of spores was 5 to 6 percent. With these method developed in this experiment, 161 isolates of putative auxotrophs were detected among which the nutrient requirement for 10 isolates were determined. Five out of 10 mutants were still virulent to apple tree and all but one could not sporulate.

For the developing natural fisheries flavoring substances using crustacea, the flavor constituents of enzyme hydrolysates from shore swimming crab (crab) and spotted shrimp (shrimp) were investigated. In taste-active compounds of both enzyme hydrolysates, total free amino acid contents of crab and shrimp enzyme hydrolysates were 5,226.7 mg% and 8,757.3 mg%, respectively. The major amino acids were taurine, glutamic acid, proline, asparagine, glycine, alanine, valine, leucine, lysine anserine and arginine. As for ATP related compounds, AMP was the principal component and small amounts of IMP was detected in both enzyme hydrolysates. In the quarternary ammonium bases, betaine was the principal component (593.8mg%), and contents of TMAO and betaine in both samples were 60.7 mg% and 850.0 mg%, 124.1 mg% and 755.9 mg%, respectively. The major components were Na, K, P and Cl in inorganic ions. The major fatty acids of both sample were 14 : 0, 16 : 0, 16 : 1n7, 18 : 1n9, 20 : 5n3 and 22 : 6n3, and composition ration of n3 polyunsaturated fatty acids of were 27.8% and 28.5%, respectively. Total 99~109 volatile compounds were detected as a cooked odor of crab and shrimp enzyme hydrolysates by SDE apparatus/gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. The volatile flavor compounds identified from cooked crab enzyme hydrolysate were composed of 6 acids, 10 alcohols, 7 aldehydes, 11 ketones, 1 ester, 5 phenols, 4 benzenes, 22 hydrocarbons, 1 furan, 21 nitrogen containing compounds and 11 micellaneous compounds. And the volatile flavor compounds indentified from cooked shrimp enzyme hydrolysate were composed of 13 acids, 10 alcohols, 6 aldehydes, 10 ketones, 3 esters, 2 phenols, 5 benzenes, 36 hydrocarbons, 1 furan, 14 nitrogen containing compounds and 8 micellaneous compounds.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of alcohol drinking on dietary behaviors and nutrient intakes among the university male students. The subjects were divided three group; no-alcohol group(n=83), alcohol group(n=78), and high-alcohol group(n=78).And they were observed general characteristics, life style, eating pattern, food frequency and nutrient intake using questionnaires. The mean age, height, weight and BMI of the subjects were 25.8$\pm$6.1 years old 171.5$\pm$5.4 cm, 63.4$\pm$9.7 kg and 2.3$\pm$2.8/kg/$m^2$, respectively. The types of residence and person who prepares meals were significantly different among the groups: the frequency of self-boarding and preparing meals oneself in high-alcohol group were higher than in other two groups. The frequency of physical exercise and cigarette smoking in high-alcohol group were higher than in other two groups. There were no significant differences in skipping meals among three groups. However, the most common reson why high-alcohol group skipped meals was due to a eating habit, while a lack of time in other two groups. The results show that the high-alcohol group tended to eat more often instant ramien, soybean sprout, anchovy, and coffee compared to the other two groups. The energy intakes in alcohol and high-alcohol groups were lower than those in no-alcohol group. In conclusion, high-alcohol students have unhealthy dietary behaviors in the light of high frequency of cigarette smoking, eating habit of skipping meals and instant foods, and therefore showing a strong need of proper education in alcohol withdrawal and meal management for them.

The base for preparing oyster hydrolysate-added yogurt was consisted of whole milk (1,000 mL), skim milk (44.05 to 42.05 g), enzymatic oyster hydrolysates powder (OHP, 0 to 2.0 g) and pectin. The yogurt base was fermented with 7 kinds of starter cultures (3% based on yogurt volume), such as Lactobacillus acidophilus, lactobacillus bulgaricus, lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus fermentum, Lactobacillus pentosus, Streptcoccus thermophilus and the mixed starters (L. bulgaricus and S. thermophilus) at optimal temperature. Processing condition and quality characteristics of the yogurt were evaluated by analyzing pH, titratable acidity, viscosity, viable cell count, functional properties and sensory evaluation. The results suggested that the optimal conditions for preparing the good quality yogurt revealed the mixed starters (L. bulgaricus and S. thermophilus) for starter culture, 1.0 g of 3 kDa hydrolysate for amount, and 5.5 hrs for fermentation time. The good quality yogurt showed 4.31 for pH, 1.07% for titratable acidity, 469 cps for viscosity and $4.9{\times}10^8\;CFU/mL$ for viable cell count. The hydrolysate-added yogurt was 2 times higher in ACE inhibitory and antioxidant activities than commercial yogurt, and kept good quality during storage of 15 days at $5^{\circ}C$.
