In this study, processing of dried products of adcidian , Haocynthia roretzi, were investigated, which has been cultured in the south and east coast of Korea in recent years. Raw ascidians were shucked , gutted, soaked and then drained. Seven kinds of dried ascidian meats were prepared : boiled in 5% slat solution for 10 min and hot-air dried (A)-sun dried (B) or hot-air dried (C) after soaking for 1 min in 0.2% NaHSO3 solution , sun dried (D) or hot -air dried (G) after treating for 15 sec in 5% liquid smoke solution, and sun dried (E) or hot -air dried (F) after blanching for 30 sec in boiling 5% salt solution added with 0.2% NaHSO3. The moisture contents, water activity of the products showed little change and VBN gradually increased during storage at 25 $\pm$2$^{\circ}C$. The TBA and POV values of the liquid smoked dried ascidian (product D, G0 were considerably lower than those of others, In fatty acid composition 22 : 6 , 20 : 5 : 16: 0 and 18 : 1 acid were predominant. Conditions adopted in products D and G had a good antioxidative effect on highly unsatuated fatty acids during the storage. The contents of inosine and AMP of products were higher than those of other nucleotide and their related compounds. Judging from the results of chemical experiments and sensory evaluation, the sample A, D and G were most desirable and they could be preserved more than 120 days at room temperature(25$\pm$2$^{\circ}C$).

Two types of powdered chungkookjang, were prepared by a hot air-drying process, and the freeze-drying, and composition and aroma patterns were examined. The fresh chungkookjang was composed of 53.8% moisture, while the hot air-dried and freeze-dried powdered chungkookjang contained 5.2% moisture, $39.3{\sim}39.4%$ crude protein, $18.6{\sim}18.7%$ crude lipid, $4.7{\sim}5.0%$ crude ash, and $31.7{\sim}32.2%$ carbohydrate. The pH of the each powered chungkookjang was similar, ranging from 6.5 to 6.7. The freeze-dried powdered chungkookjang showed the highest lightness (67.30), yellowness (59.37) while the highest redness (43.1) was observed in the hot air-dried chungkookjang. Each chungkookjang was analysed by an electronic nose with metal oxide 12 sensors and SPME-GC/MS. The response by the electronic nose was analysed by principal component analysis (PCA). The proportion of the first principal component was 90.47%, suggesting that each aroma pattern of the prepared chungkookjang was discriminated. SPME-GC/MS was used to identify the pyrazines. The percentage of pyrazines observed in the fresh chungkookjang, freeze-dried powdered chungkookjang, and hot air-dried powdered chungkookjang was 6.6, 3.8 and 15.9%, respectively. A higher overall preference was obtained from the hot air-dried powdered chungkookjang than with the freeze-dried powdered chungkookjang.

Dried apple bugak, a traditional Korean dried food, was made using superfine powders of glutinous rice (GR), non-glutinous rice (NGR), and Wasabia koreana Nakai leaf (WKNL) as coating materials. This study aimed to determine the effect of coating sliced apples with superfine GR powders substitute with superfine NGR and WKNL powders at different ratios. Apple slices coated with superfine GR, NGR and WKNL powders were air-fried and compared with dried and air-fried apple bugak coated with superfine GR powders. The results showed that coating apple slices with superfine GR powders with the addition of superfine NGR and WKNL powders significantly increased oil absorption capacity and antioxidant activity but reduced viscosity, water absorption capacity, total polyphenol, total flavonoids contents, and improved color and structural improvements. Among all the samples, 80:20:5-treated (GR:NGR:WKNL) dried and air-fried bugak showed enhanced quality characteristics. Thus, the results suggested that coating apple slices by the substituting GR superfine rice powders with 10 or 20% of NGR and 3 or 5% of WKNL superfine powders produces good quality dried and air-fried bugak with nutritious characteristics.

Drying characteristics of squids under two dry conditions were investigated using far infrared and heated air. Dry temperatures of 40, 50 and $60^{\circ}C$ with air speed of 0.6, 0.8 and 1.2 m/s were used for evaluating far infrared squid drying. Heated air squid drying at 40 and $50^{\circ}C$ with air speed of 0.8 m/s was used as a control treatment. The two drying were evaluated in terms of drying rate, color, TBA value, aerobic bacteria, cutting shear, penetration strength, and energy consumption. The drying rate of far infrared drying was relatively faster than that of heated air drying. The drying time of far infrared drying was reduced as the drying temperature increased. The color difference of far infrared dried squids was from 18.81 to 22.85, and heated air dried squid had the color different from 23.94 to 24.09. Far infrared dried squid had relatively smaller TBA values that indicate a level of rancidity. The aerobic bacteria of heated air dried squid increased from $970{\times}10^3$ to $40,000{\times}10^3$ CFU/g before and after drying, respectively. Far infrared dried squid had relatively smaller increase (from $970{\times}10^3$ to $40,000{\times}10^3$ CFU/g). The cutting shear and penetration strength for far infrared dried squids was relatively lower. In addition, far infrared squid drying consumed relatively less energy compared to heated air drying.

To develope Hanbang beef jerky as health food, six kinds of beef jerky were prepared by adding sugar (A), licorice (B) and three kinds of spice extracts (clove: C, fennel fruit: D and Chungyang green pepper extract: E) and mixture of all extracts (F). The effects of the drying method and added spice extracts on the quality characteristics of the beef jerky were evaluated. In general, the air-blast dried beef jerky contained $31{\sim}33%$ moisture, $50.0{\sim}51.2%$ crude protein, $7.2{\sim}7.8%$ crude lipid and $3.0{\sim}3.3%$ crude ash. For the mineral content of the air-blast dried jerky, the most prevalent mineral was Na $(1540.08{\sim}1838.17$ mg%), followed by K, P, Mg, and Ca. The Ca content of the beef jerky was highest in the mixed extract group (88.53 mg%), and the lowest content was in sugar-added group (53.12 mg%). For the color properties, the L-value (lightness), a-value (redness) and b-value (yellowness) were higher in the air-blast dried beef jerky than in the hot air dried samples. The drying methods showed their greatest affect on the redness (a) for all six jerkies (p<0.001). For the preference by sensory evaluation, the beef jerky samples with added sugar (A) and licorice extract (B) had significantly higher scores than the beef jerky samples with the added spice extracts, for both of air-blast drying and hot air drying (p<0.05). Preference for the air-blast dried beef jerkies with added clove (C) and fennel fruits (D) were significantly higher, in terms of taste, color, softness and aftertaste as compared to the respective hot air dried jerkies (p<0.01). Considering all the obtained results, we concluded that licorice and spice extracts can be used as natural preservatives in the development of health foods and the air-blast drying method is recommended to improve the quality characteristics of beef jerky.

Oriental melon has been increased in production amount, but its processed food was not made in spite of the fact that shelf-life of the fresh fruit is short. This study was carried out to develop a dried product with no use sulfur treatment. Fresh melons were peeled, cut into 6 pieces, and soaked to the following pretreatments soaking in sugar syrup(SS), sodium chloride(SC), ascorbic acid(AA) and sodium polyphosphate(SP). After preatreatments the melon pieces were dried by hot air drying at 5$0^{\circ}C$ for 9 and 12 hours, and the dried melons were air blown at $25^{\circ}C$ for 1 day. The dried samples were evaluated for moisture content, texture, rotor, and sensory quality. The moisture content of dried melons soaked in SS and SC were lower than those that were soaked in AA and SP after hot air drying. The melons dried for 12 hours were high in hardness, gumminess, chewness and adhesiveness and excellent in sensory evaluation compared to 9 hours. The "L" value of SS was higher and the "a" value was lower in Hunter color. And SS treatment inhibited browning of the dried melon and improved sensory characteristics in color, flavor, texture and taste. Sucrose concentration had no significant effect on color, hardness and sensory score in banal product. The combination of SS with SP represented a highly effective antibrowning treatment for the dried melon and the product was kept in good color for 3 months at room temperature.at room temperature.

Opuntia ficus-indica and Aloe vera slices were dried using 20, 30, and 40% polyethylene glycol (PEG) 4,000 as a dehydration agent, and the dried samples were compared with the hot-air dried and freeze dried in terms of rehydration ratio, color, and sensory evaluation. The moisture content of the PEG-treated samples decreased with increasing concentrations of polyethylene glycol. The rehydration ratio of the PEG-treated samples was better than those of the hot air-dried or freeze-dried samples. The color of the PEG-treated samples was similar to that of the freeze-dried samples and better than that of the hot air-dried samples. The sensory evaluation of PEG-treated samples was better than those of the hot air-dried or freeze-dried samples. These results suggest that dehydration of Opuntia ficus-indica and Aloe vera slices using PEG is very effective in terms of rehydration ratio and minimal damage of cell structure.

Green pepper was dried using 30%, 50%, or 80% maltodextrin as dehydrating agents, and the quality of the peppers was compared with that of freeze-dried and hot air-dried samples in terms of rehydration ratio, color, and sensory evaluation. The amount of moisture lost during drying increased with increasing concentrations of maltodextrin. The rehydration ratio of maltodextrin-treated pepper was greater than those of freeze-dried or hot air-dried peppers. The color of the 30% maltodextrin-treated green pepper was similar to that of freeze-dried pepper and better than that of hot air-dried pepper. On sensory evaluation of dried green peppers, maltodextrin-treated pepper scored better than did the freeze-dried or hot air-dried samples. These results suggest that drying of green pepper using maltodextrin is very efficient, because good rehydration capacity is retained and minimal cell destruction may be achieved.

An attempt was made to determine the effects of drying methods including shady air drying, presteamed and shady air drying, microwave drying, and freeze drying on the volatile flavor components of Capsella bursapastoris. Essential oils from the samples were isolated by Simultaneous steam distillation-extraction (SDE) method using diethyl ether as solvent. Concentrated samples were analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) and combined gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Respective 30, 18, 29, and 26 volatile flavor components were identified in shady air dried samples, presteamed and shady air dried samples, microwave dried samples, and freeze dried samples. The kinds and amounts of volatile flavor components evidently depended upon the drying methods. Trimethyl sulfide was regarded as the most abundant component in shady air dried samples, dimethyl trisulfide in presteamed and shady air dried samples, and phytol in microwave or freeze dried samples.

The purpose of this study was to provide the basic data of butternut squash (Cucurbita moschata) according to the drying methods. The proximate composition and chromaticity of freeze-dried and hot air-dried Cucurbita moschata powders were evaluated, and the antioxidant effects of these ethanolic extracts were analyzed by DPPH, ABTS, FRAP, reducing power activity, total phenolic, and flavonoid content. As a result, Cucurbita moschata was revealed to have high carbohydrate and crude protein contents, while crude ash and crude fat contents were relatively low. Also, it was confirmed that the hot air-dried Cucurbita moschata had lower L, a, and b values than the freeze-dried Cucurbita moschata. Additionally, as a result of analyzing the antioxidant activity of Cucurbita moschata ethanolic extracts, hot air-dried Cucurbita moschata ethanolic extract showed significantly superior antioxidant activity than freeze-dried Cucurbita moschata ethanolic extract. Also, hot air-dried Cucurbita moschata ethanolic extract was revealed to have a higher polyphenol content, but slightly lower flavonoid content than freeze-dried Cucurbita moschata ethanolic extract. Based on the data from this study, further experiments on Cucurbita moschata material are necessary.
