Quality characteristics of tomato jam added with 15, 25, 35 and 50% fructo-oligosaccharide substituted for sucrose were evaluated. As the amount of fructo-oligosaccharide increased, the moisture content and total titratable acidity of tomato jam increased, whereas pH and spreadness decreased. In the results of color and texture analysis, lightness ($L^*$), redness ($a^*$) and yellowness ($b^*$) in addition to adhesiveness and resilience increased when fructo-oligosaccharide was added up to 50% of the total tomato weight. In the sensory evaluation, values of flavor, transparency, sweetness, and off-flavor decreased as fructo-oligosaccharide content increased, whereas tomato flavor, sourness and stickiness increased. Overall acceptance of tomato jam added with 25~35% fructo-oligosaccharide was the highest among all of the samples.

The present study relates to the development of a processed product for expansion of use of Tangor which is mostly eaten raw in winter. Furthermore, Tangor jam containing fructo oligosaccharide and isomalto oligosaccharide was prepared, and thus quality characteristics of the jam have been determined according to the sugar concentration by making a low-sugar jam by adding substitute sweeteners instead of sugar, because low-sugar products are recently preferred in the market. Furthermore, the general elements of flesh and rind of Tangor, DPPH free radical scavenging activity, chromaticity, sugar content, pH, acidity, and preference have been checked. As a result of the experiment, the chromaticity, luminosity (L), the sugar content, and pH were the lowest in the control group. In F1, F2, and F3, which gradually added fructo oligosaccharide, and I1, I2, and I3, which slowly added isomalto oligosaccharide, luminosity significantly increased with the addition of oligosaccharide. In contrast, as the amount of addition of oligosaccharide increases, red chromaticity (a), yellow chromaticity (b), and sugar content have significantly decreased. Lastly, in the preference test using a 9 point test scheme, F2 and I2 have been considered most appropriate when producing Tangor jam.

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 quality characteristics of Korean rice cakes (Karedduk) with a mixture of fructooligosaccharide (95%) and AA (acetylated adipate distarch) added, after 2 and 24 hours of storage at $5^{\circ}C$, were investigated. A central composite design was used for arrangement of treatment. Different levels of fructooligosaccharide (95%), 0, 3, 6, 9, and 12%, were added to dry rice flour. In addition, different levels of AA, 0, 0.3, 0.6, 0.9, and 1.2%, were added to the same dry rice flour. The texture properties analysis using a Texture Analyzer revealed that the springiness, cohesiveness, chewiness, gumminess, adhesiveness, and hardness were significantly different. The effect of retarding retrogradation of Korean rice cakes (Karedduk) with added mixtures of fructooligosaccharide (95%) and AA showed an increasing trend as the amount of fructooligosaccharide (95%) and AA increased. Overall, the instrumental texture properties were highly correlated with the sensory characteristics. These results suggest that adding a mixture of 6% fructooligosaccharide (95%) and 1.2% AA to Korean rice cakes (Karedduk) is effective for retarding retrogradation.

Physical and physiological properties of isomaltooligosaccaride (IMO), fructooligosaccharide (FO) and sucrose were investigated. The viscosity and moisture retention power of IMO were similar to those of FO. IMO had an excellent heat and pH stability compared with FO and sucrose. To investigate the effect of oligosaccharides on the growth of mice, each sample was administered orally to mice for 2 weeks. Weight change, moisture content of feces, weight of appendix and the ratio of Bifidobacterium to total microorganisms in the feces were examined. There were no significant differences in the weight increases and the efficiency of feeds. Moisture content of feces was highest in the IMO feeding group, and IMO promoted selectively the growth of Bifidobacterium. On the other hand, FO group showed bigger cecum than other groups.

Effects of fructooligosaccharide (1%, w/w) and chlorella powder (0.01% and 0.02%, w/w) on kimchi fermentation were studied. The values of pH and total acidity of kimchi containing fructooligosaccharide or chlorella powder were changed slowly compared to those for the kimchi sample containing 1% sugar during fermentation at 4$^{\circ}C$. Growth of lactic acid bacteria was also inhibited by addition of fructooligosaccharide or chlorella powder. Futhermore, addition of 1% fructooligosaccharide and 0.02% chlorella powder showed synergic inhibitory effects against decrease of pH, increase of acidity and lactic acid bacteria growth. Color values of L, a and b were higher in kimhi with fructooligosaccharide at early stage of fermentation. In sensory evaluation including color, sour taste, crispness and overall quality, kimchi containing both 1% fructooligosaccharide and 0.02% chlorella powder.

A considerable amounts of mannitol were accumulated during the fermentation of Kimchis. When several oligosaccharide including fructo-, soybean-, and isomaltooligosaccharides were added during the preparation of Kimchi as beneficial ingredient respectively, fructooligosaccharides (at $25^{\circ}C$) and soybean-oligosaccharides (at $35^{\circ}C$) significantly increased the amounts of mannitol accumulation, while isomalto-oligosaccharides exerted no effect at all fermentation conditions examined. This result were caused by no appearance of microorganisms which have the capability of utilizing isomalto-oligosacsharides during fermentation period. Isomalto-oligosaccharides can be recommended as an effective ingredient of Kimchis because both oligosaccharides and mannitol that have favorable functionalities were simultaneously contained. However, so as to enhance the cooling taste of Kimchis by increasing the content of mannitol, fructo- and soybean-oligosaccharides are rather favorable.

This study was carried out to produce the health functional food maesil cheong by replacing sucrose with isomaltooligosaccharide and fructooligosaccharide. The substitution levels of these oligosaccharides were between 10% and 100%. A 1:1 (w/w) mixture of maesil and sugar was adopted for preparing maesil cheong. The pH of maesil cheong remained unchanged (between 2.72 and 3.00) during 90-day storage period, regardless of oligosaccharide content. Citric and malic acids were identified in maesil cheong; citric acid accounted for 71-82% of the total organic acid content. Sucrose was completely liquefied in the sample after 30 days and was hydrolyzed steadily into fructose and glucose over the storage period. More than 75% of isomaltooligosaccharides remained in maesil cheong after 90 days when sucrose was completely replaced with isomaltooligosaccharide. However, fructooligosaccharides were mostly decomposed at the end of storage period. Thus, isomaltooligosaccharides may be suitable for acidic maesil cheong products to expect its health functional effect.

The present study was aimed at investigating effects of chicory inulin and three kinds of oligosaccharides on lipid metabolism in rats fed a high-cholesterol diet. Nine Sprague-Dawley male rats weighing, about 190g were given one of five experimental diets, which were basal cholesterol diet (Control) isomaltooligosaccharide diet (IMO), Iructooligosaccharide diet (FO), chicory inulooligosaccharide diet (CIO) and chicory inulin diet (CI) for 5 weeks. In the oligosaccharide and inulin diets, 6% was added at the expense of sucrose. Rats were pair-fed to the intake of FO group which consumed the least amount, and their feces were collected during the last 4 days. Body weight gain was lower in Fo and CI groups compared with the Control group. Plasma glucose levels of FO and CIO groups were lower and plasma triglyceride concentrations of FO, CIO, and CI groups were lower than those of IMO group. Plasma cholesterol concentration did not differ among groups. Relative liver weight was lower in CIO group. Hepatic triglyceride and cholesterol did not differ among. groups. Fecal excretion of neutral steroid and bile acid were not different among groups, but fecal triglyceride excretion was significantly increased in FO and CI groups compared with the Control group. In conclusion, supplementation of oligosaccharides and chicory inulin at 6% of diets showed no significant hypolipidemic effect in rats fed a high cholesterol diet.
