This study was conducted to determine the effect of pH adjustment and addition of sodium chloride (NaCl) on quality characteristics of pork leg surimi. The pork leg surimi was manufactured with one of following pH 3.0 or pH 11.0 adjustment and contained 2% NaCl or not; C (Alaska pollack surimi, two times washing, 0% NaCl), T1 (pork leg surimi pH 3.0 adjustment, 0% NaCl), T2 (pork leg surimi, pH 3.0 adjustment, 2% NaCl), T3 (pork leg surimi, pH 11.0 adjustment 0% NaCl), T4 (pork leg surimi, pH 11.0 adjustment, 2% NaCl). The $L^*$ and W values was increased with increasing of pH value, but the $a^*$ and $b^*$ values lower. The W values were higher (p<0.05) as addition of NaCl, but $a^*$ and $b^*$ values were lower. In textural properties, the cohesiveness was increased with increasing of pH value, however with the exception of springiness all traits were higher (p<0.05) as addition of NaCl. The breaking force and gel strength was increased with increasing of pH value. The breaking force, gel strength and breaking force u deformation were higher as addition of NaCl, but shear force lower. In sensory evaluation, the tenderness was increased with increasing of pH value and all traits of sensory evaluation also were higher (p<0.05) as addition of NaCl. There were no differences in interaction of pH adjustment and without or with NaCl on color, textural properties, breaking force, deformation, gel strength, shear force and sensory evaluation of pork leg surimi. The color, textural and physical characteristics and sensory evaluation ot T2 and T4 were similar to treatment C. Therefore, the pH 11.0 and 2% NaCl addition on process of manufacture of pork leg surimi would be recommended.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of cryoprotectants(sugar, sorbitol, polyphosphate) on quality properties of chicken breast surimi manufactured by pH adjustment(pH 11.0) during frozen storage. Final surimi was divided into experimental units to which the following treatments were randomly assigned: C(Alaska pollack surimi, two times washing, 4% sugar＋5% sorbitol＋0.3% polyphosphate additive); T1(chicken breast surimi, 0.3% polyphosphate additive); T2(chicken breast surimi, 5% sorbitol ＋0.3% polyphosphate additive); T3(chicken breast surimi, 4% sugar＋5% sorbitol＋0.3% polyphosphate additive). All amino acid contents of control were higher than those of all treatments, while T2 was higher in amino acid contents among the treatments. Shear force of all treatments were higher than that of control, but the breaking force, deformation and gel strength were lower. The TBARS(thiobarbituric acid reactive substances) and VBN(volatile basic nitrogen) values of all treatments were lower than those of control, The TBARS values of all treatments were increased with increased storage period. In sensory evaluation, the score of appearance, meat color and overall acceptability of control were higher than those of all treatments, but aroma, juiciness and tenderness were lower than those for all treatments.

A microcomputer based control system was constructed to save energy consumption in the thermal sterilizing process. The functional accuracy of system was evaluated through the analysis of the thermal diffusivities of the model solid food, Alaska pollack surimi. The heat penetration curves obtained through the experiments were typical for solid foods. The practical thermal diffusivity calculated from heat penetration curve was a constant value at steady sterilizing temperature, and this was independent of the holding time. At different temperatures, the thermal diffusivity values did not show remarkable differences when compared with those predicted by some experimental equations cited from the literatures. The maximal difference was within the range of $\pm10.0\%$.

In order to establish the standard conditions for thermal sterilization of foods, a microcomputer based $F_o-value$ measuring system was developed upon the basis of the time-temperature profile in food. $F_o-value$ was calculated simultaneously from the time-temperature profile, and described as integrated lethality during the whole sterilization process. The accuracy of system was evaluated by the analysis of thermal diffusivity of the model solid food, Alaska pollack surimi. The $F_o-value$ could be measured precisely under the different sterilizing conditions as the varied time and temperature. The practical thermal diffusivities from various sterilizing conditions agreed well to the values predicted by some experimental equations suggested in the literatures. The differences were within the range of $\pm12\%$.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of cryoprotectants (sugar, sorbitol, polyphosphate) on the physico-chemical characteristics of chicken breast surimi manufactured by pH adjustment (pH 11.0) during freezing storage. The final surimi was divided into experimental units to which the following treatments were randomly assigned: C (Alaska pollack surimi: two washings, 4% sugar +5% sorbitol ${\pounds}'$ 0.3% polyphosphate additive): T1 (chicken breast surimi: pH 11.0 adjusted, 0.3% polyphosphate additive): T2 (chicken breast surimi pH 11.0 adjusted, 5% sorbitol +0.3% polyphosphate additive); T3 (chicken breast surimi: pH 11.0 adjusted, 4% sugar +5% sorbitol +0.3% polyphosphate additive). The crude protein content of the control was higher than all treated samples, however the moisture, crude fat and crude ash of T3 were higher than the control (p<0.05). The pH, WHC and collagen content of the control were higher than all of the treated samples, and these values decreased with storage time for all treatments and the control (p<0.05). The cholesterol content of the control was lower than all treated samples, but the myofibrillar protein contents of all treated samples were higher than the control (p<0.05). The cooking loss of T2 was lower than the control and the other two treatments (p<0.05). The $L^*,\;a^*\;and\;b^*$ values of all treated samples were higher than those of the control during freezing storage (p<0.05). The W value of T3 at 1.5 and 3 months of freezing storage was higher than the control and T1 (p<0.05). The myoglobin and met-Mb contents of the control were similar to all treated samples, and the met-Mb content of the control and all treated samples increased with storage time (p<0.05). Immediately after freezing, the hardness of the control was higher than all treated samples, however it was lower after 1.5 and 3 months of frozen storage (p<0.05). The cohesiveness and gumminess of the control were higher than all treated samples immediately after freezing, however the values for T3 were higher than those of the control and the other two treatments during frozen storage for 1.5 and 3 months (p<0.05).

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of washing time and the addition of sodium chloride(2%) on the quality characteristics of surimi made with chicken breast. The control(C) prepared from Alaska pollack was washed 2 times without sodium chloride. For the test treatments, ground chicken breast was washed 2 times only(T1), washed 2 times followed by the addition of sodium chloride(T2), washed 3 times(T3), washed 4 times with added sodium chloride(T4), washed 6 times(T5), and washed 6 times with added sodium chloride(T6) to produce chicken breast surimi. The $L^*,\;a^*$, W, shear force, and juiciness values were significantly higher, but the hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, aroma, flavor, and overall acceptability of Tl were significantly lower than those of the control(p<0.05). The $L^*$ value decreased as the washing time increased, and the $a^*$ and W values were significantly higher, however the hardness, breaking force, gel strength, shear force, and overall sensory scores of the samples washed 2 times were lower than those washed 4 and 6 times (p<0.05). The $L^*,\;b^*$, and shear force values were significantly lower but the $a^*$, W, hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, folding test results and overall sensory scores were significantly higher due to the addition of sodium chloride (p<0.05). The correlation coefficients(r>0.6) for the overall sensory scores and other items were positive for the folding test, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, and flavor, but negative for shear force(p<0.05). Overall, T4 had the highest qualities and economic value among all treatments.

The purpose of this study was to optimize the formulation for fish-meat noodles added with farmed olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) using response surface methodology. Fish-meat (surimi) from P. olivaceus was prepared by a traditional washing process. Independent variables were Alaska pollack, fish-meat from P. olivaceus, and starch, whereas dependent variables were whiteness and texture. The results for whiteness and texture produced very significant values for whiteness (P<0.001), strength (P<0.001), hardness (P<0.05), breaking force (P<0.001), chewiness (P<0.001), brittleness (P<0.001), extensibility force (P<0.001), and extensibility distance (P<0.05). The optimal formula for fish-meat noodle was addition of 72.00 g Alaska pollack, 11.59 g P. olivaceus, and 15.86 g starch. Experimental values of whiteness, strength, hardness, breaking force, chewiness, brittleness, extensibility force, and extensibility distance under optimal conditions were $59.01{\pm}0.53$, $708.22{\pm}54.12g/cm^2$, $1,390.07{\pm}67.70g/cm^2$, $3,622.77{\pm}92.52g$, $2,686.94{\pm}103.22g$, $278,578.31{\pm}10,150.22g$, $52.22{\pm}2.97g$, $24.14{\pm}3.55mm$, respectively.
