Flaxseed is outstanding for lignans and oil rich in ${\alpha}$-linolenic acid which protect against several major illnesses. Better understanding of processing and storage characteristics of flaxseed will increase options for food use. Lignans and oil are found in the hull and embryo, respectively. Comparison of pearling and impact-dehulling processes for separation of lignan and oil-rich fractions showed the impact process was less effective, but easier to scale-up. Screw-pressing embryo reduced oil yield compared to whole seed, but doubled productivity and sharply reduced frictional heating of the oil. Flaxseed hull and embryo, also whole, ground and steamed-ground samples, were stable up to 30 weeks in closed containers at $23^{\circ}C$. Steamed-ground samples in open trays at $40^{\circ}C$ deteriorated markedly (peroxide value > 100 by 22 weeks); yet, whole seed remained stable. Incorporation of 18% flaxseed embryo into yellow perch feed increased ${\alpha}$-linolenic acid to 13 to l4% of muscle and liver lipids, compared to 0.5 to 0.7% in the no-embryo control. Feed conversion ratio, weight gain, and survival were similar. These studies are helping to establish the technological base for processing and utilizing flaxseed and flaxseed fractions to improve human diets.

Quality evaluation for food and agricultural products have always been one of the most elusive problems associated with the handling , processing and marketing in a food plant production. In order to detect physical foreign materials in food and agricultural products, non-destructive techniques have been developed for many years. Application of X-ray system to detect physical foreign materials in food and agricultural products could be considered to be a high potential method. Especially , it is impossible to detect internal physical foreign materials by visual inspections. In this study, it was tried to be applied for two different X-ray devices. Soft X-ray system with CdTe sensor and X-ray CT scanner were evaluated for advantage of the detection of non-meltallic foreign materials in food and agricultural products . Though the soft X-ray is not a high energy radiation, it is possible to detect small different density in a material. The CdTe sensor has a high resolution for t e soft X-ray energy region. The density characteristics of foods and foreign material were expressed region. The density characteristics of foods and foreign materials were expressed as a soft X-ray energy spectrum. The energy spectrum was analyzed by a personal computer with a multi-channel analyzer. X-ray CT scanner can provide visual image and analyze by three dimensional information inside food and agricultural products. The X-ray CT scanner using as a medical equipment was used to detect a foreign material. The density characteristics of food and foreign materials in food were tried to be detected by the threshold value on the basis of the CT numbers. The soft X-ray absorption characteristics for acrylin plates and distilled water were obtained and could be found the possibility of detecting a small physical foreign materials such as a plastic wrapping film , a stone and grasshopper in food and agricultural products.

Water-cooked salted ducks were tray-packaged and stored under refrigeration ($4{\pm}1^{\circ}C$) in order to evaluate the quality changes during storage. pH, total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N), sensory and microbiological analysis were determined at 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 9 and 10 days of storage. pH value and TVB-N (mg N/100 g) varied from $6.47{\pm}0.16$ to $6.69{\pm}0.10$ and from $5.90{\pm}0.93$ to $13.42{\pm}2.46$, respectively. Sensory results indicated that ducks were unacceptable at the 10th day of storage. The predominant spoilage bacteria at the end of the shelf-life were Brochothrix thermosphacta, lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and minor components were Enterobacteriaceae, members of Micrococci, yeasts and moulds. Pseudomonads were also detected. Both total bacteria and the various spoilage ones, overall, increased from the initial sampling to the final day.

The temperature changes and quality characteristics of $Makgeolli$ produced using rice treated with $Gaeryang-Nuruk$ (commercial improved $Nuruk$) extract were investigated. During fermentation, the treated rice maintained a lower temperature than the control and then rose after the fifth mashing day. For all the treatments, the numbers of yeast, LAB and AAB colonies increased on the second mashing day, and then gradually decreased. As the fermentation proceeded, the pH gradually increased from the third mashing day, and eventually became higher than that on the initial mashing day. The total acid contents increased on the first mashing day, but as the fermentation progressed, they showed little change. The amino acidity and soluble solid contents during overall fermentation and reducing-sugar contents was reduced until the first mashing day, and increased from the day after. As for the alcohol content, that of the control was 6.87% on the first mashing day, and then gradually increased, nuruk-extract-treated rice began with 9~10% alcohol content and then increased as the fermentation proceeded. Among the organic acid contents, lactate was the main material. In the sensory evaluation, the 24 h-, 48 h- and 72 h- treated rice samples showed somewhat good response.

The water extract of the fermented $Rhus$ $verniciflua$ stem bark (FRVSB) was prepared by hot water extracting at $100^{\circ}C$ for 8 h. The urushiol content of the FRVSB water extract was determined by HPLC. The urushiol was not contained in FRVSB water extract, whereas $Rhus$ $verniciflua$ stem bark (RVSB) water extract contained 3.4 mg%. At the lab scale size, suitable water extraction condition for a total solid, polyphenol and flavonoid from FRVSB was at over $100^{\circ}C$ for 6-8 h. The total solid contents was reduced in pilot scale processing system, with 5.7% of the extraction yield. The proximate composition (%) of FRVSB water extract obtained from industrial installation was moisture 4.34, crude fat 1.69, crude protein 10.21, and crude ash 15.80. Gallic acid (1,090.5 mg%) was the most abundant compound in phenolic acids, while fisetin (135.7 mg%) was the predominant flavonoid. The free sugar content was mannitol of 3.48%, glycerol of 0.19%, and glucose of 0.19%. Alanine (244 ppm), serine (231 ppm), and leucine (218 ppm) were predominant amino acids.

The use of tartary buckwheat flour as a source of dietary rutin has been limited because of the enzymatic degradation of rutin during the dough-making process, which results in a bitter taste. A variety of pretreatment regimes, including heating, steaming, boiling, and extruding, were evaluated in relation to the inactivation of the rutin-degrading enzyme responsible for rutin loss and color change during dough-making. Steaming (120 see), boiling (90 see) buckwheat grains, or extruding (180 rpm/min at $140^{\circ}C$) the flour resulted in the retention of >85% of the original rutin and eliminated the bitter taste in the hydrated flours. In contrast, dry heating at $140^{\circ}C$ for 9 min or microwaving at 2,450 MHz for 3 min did not reduce the rutin loss, and the bitter taste remained. Unlike in the flour, the rutin degradation in water-soaked grains was insignificant at room temperature. Moreover, the samples treated by steaming, boiling, or extrusion were darker and more reddish in color.

Sensory quality of pine nut gruel was investigated to determine the effects of processing conditions on its quality. Response surface methodology was applied to investigate effects of water volume and pine nut weight ratios to rice weight and heating time on the preference of pine nut gruel in terms of color, flavor, viscosity, taste, and overall acceptance. Results showed that processing conditions did not affect the color of pine nut gruel. Viscosity and overall acceptance were affected by the ratio of water volume to rice weight and heating time. $R^2$ of response surface regression equations were 0.6954, 0.8333 (p<0.05), 0.9668 (p<0.01), 0.8664 (p<0.05), and 0.8159 (p<0.10) for color, flavor, viscosity, taste, and overall acceptance respectively. No relationship was observed between color and overall acceptance. The relationship between viscosity and overall acceptance was the highest.

Phthalate plasticizers residue in food is a serious threat to public health. Spores of Ganoderma lucidum are easy to be contaminated with phthalates during collection and processing. In this study, supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) was performed to remove phthalates in spores of G. lucidum, and the effects on acid and peroxide values of spores' oil were also evaluated. The results showed SFE removed 100% of the residual di-iso-butyl phthalate, di-n-butyl phthalate and di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate in the spores of G. lucidum. No significant differences in polysaccharides content and fatty acid composition were observed between SFE and control spores. However, the triterpenoid extracts of SFE spores had a 7.45% increase, significantly higher than that in control spores. Accelerated oxidation tests further implied that SFE could improve the stability of spores' oil. Our results suggested SFE is a potential approach to remove phthalate from food related products.
