Physicochemical properties of starch vermicelli (Dangmyun) made with different starches in laboratory were determined to develop a modified corn starch comparable to sweet potato starch which is highly expensive than corn starch but commonly used for starch vermicelli in Korea. Initial temperatures (Ti) of gelatinization of starch vermicelli made in laboratory measured by differential scanning calorimeter, which were above $60^{\circ}C$, were higher than those of starch vermicelli in the market. Their X-ray diffraction peaks were relatively sharp compared with those of starch vermicelli in the market, which showed that starches were not completely gelatinized during the process of starch vermicelli preparation in laboratory. Initial temperature (Ti) of corn starch vermicelli was decreased by $3^{\circ}C$ by hydroxypropylation but increased by $2.5^{\circ}C$ by oxidation. Hardness and compression slope of sweet potato starch vermicelli and mungbean starch vermicelli, which were $11,726{\sim}12,555\;g/cm^2$ and $29,914{\sim}30,604\;g/cm^2$, respectively, were the highest in the samples and those of waxy corn starch were lowest. Hardness and compression slope of starch vermicelli made with corn starch slightly oxidized in the concentration of 0.5% NaOCl at pH 9.0, $40^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. increased and found to be comparable to those of sweet potato starch vermicelli.

The physiochemical properties of wheat flour dough added with onion powder were investigated. The color value of mixed onion powder was added and had low values of lightness and redness, as well as high value of yellowness. Water absorption of the wheat flour dough decreased with the increase in the onion powder. Both development time and stability of the wheat flour dough with onion powder added were less than those of the control. An increase in the added amount of onion powder resulted in an increase of weakness. The maximum viscosity gradually decreased with the increase the amount of onion powder, while the temperature of gelatination did not change. The wheat flour dough extensibility decreased, and the resistance of extension and area under the curve increased in the onion powder. It is of considerable note that the pH of the wheat flour dough decreased in the process of fermentation with an increase in the amount of onion powder.

Properties of noodle prepared with FPC and wheat flour were investigated, and the results were summarized as follows: 1. Farinogram showed that the water absorption ratio and dough development time increased as the mixing level of FPC to wheat flour increased. 2. Amylogram showed that the maximum viscosity of the composite flour decreased as the content of FPC increased. 3. In the textural parameters, such as hardness, cohesiveness and gumminess of noodles, there were no marked differences between wheat flour and cooked noodles from the composite flour of 3% or 5% FPC-97% or 95% wheat flour. 4. Regarding weight and volume of the cooked noodles, those of cooked noodles from the composite flour of 3% or 5% FPC-97% or 95% wheat flour were similar to wheat flour alone. As the content of FPC in noodle increased, however, those of cooked noodles slightly decreased, and soup turbidity increased. 5. Results of sensory evaluations showed that the noodle from the composite flour of 3% FPC-97 wheat flour appeared to be the most acceptable, and the noodles from the composite flour of 5% or 7% FPC-95% or 93% wheat flour were judged as acceptable as the wheat flour alone.

The physicochemical properties of rice flours which were obtained by dry milling(blade, hammer, test and micro mill) and wet & dry milling (roller & micro mill) were investigated. The resulting flour particle sizes were reduced in the order that of blade, hammer, test, micro and roller & micro mill. Scanning electron microscopic examination showed that the starch granules were freed from the imbedding matrix as the particles became finer. The test-milled flour had the hightest levels of starch damage, maltose value and hot-water soluble amylose content, and the blade-milled flour showed the lowest levels. Amylograph viscosity and gelatinization temperature of the flours decreased as the particles became finer, and the addition of $Hg^{+2}$ increased the peak viscosity of the dry-milled flour pastes, whereas the wet & dry-milled flour did not show any changes. The blue values and ${\lambda}$max values of the iodine complex of the cold-water extractable ${\alpha}-D-glucan$ from flours were in the range of 0.023-0.029 and 518-522nm, respectively, indicating these materials were shown to be mainly composed of amylopectin-like polymer.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate appropriate concentrations of Houttuynia cordata Thunb. powder, which has various functions, to dried wheat flour noodles. The viscosity of the composite flour and cooking quality of the noodle samples were measured, and sensory evaluations were conducted in this study. When measured by the amylograph, the composite flour had lower viscosity in the gelatinization points, maximum viscosity, and viscosity at a temperature of $95^{\circ}C$ than those of control. However, the gap between the maximum viscosity and viscosity after 15 minutes at a temperature of $95^{\circ}C$ was not great among all of the samples. While cooked noodles containing H. cordata Thunb. powder had lower weight and lower volume than those of control, the weight of two cooked noodle samples with 0.5% and 1.5% of H. cordata Thunb. powder was insignificantly different. Cooked noodles had higher concentrations of H. cordata Thunb. powder; therefore, the L value of cooked noodles decreased, while a and b color values of the noodles increased. Color, flavor, taste, and overall acceptability of the samples with H. cordata Thunb. powder were lower than those of wheat flour noodles via sensory evaluation. In the overall acceptability, however, samples with 0.5% and 1.5% of H. cordata Thunb. powder were insignificantly different from control. As a result, it was finally suggested that optimum level of the H. cordata Thunb. powder in the product was below 0.5%.

During the pearling process of hull-less barley, protein, lipid, ash and insoluble dietary fiber (IDF) contents decreased, while soluble dietary fiber (SDF) and ${\beta}-glucan$ contents slightly increased. Depending on milling methods and types of grinding mills used, there were differences in particle size distribution of barley flour. Flour particle size was smaller in the following order of Fitz mill, Ball mill, Pin mill, Cyclotec sample mill and Jet mill. Color (brightness) was closely related to the particle size of barley flour. Damaged starch (%) in pearled barley flour was the highest in Jet mill among different mills. Flours prepared with Cyclone mill and Pin mill had a reasonable amount of damaged starch. Flour produced by Fitz mill showed the lowest amount of damaged starch. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of the flour samples demonstrated different sizes and shapes of particles consisting of starch granules and cell wall materials. Damaged starch tended to increase water absorption index (WAI), water solubility index (WSI), and water retention capacity (WRC). Pasting viscosity determined by amylograph was relatively high in Pin-milled and Cyclone-milled flours. Viscosity was the lowest in coarsely ground flour by Fits mill.

The rheological properties of hard red winter, western white and Australian standard white wheat flours and of HRW-WW and HRW-ASW wheat flour blends having the same protein content were studied. Cooking properties of dry noodles prepared from HRW-WW and HRW-ASW wheat flour blends were also investigated. The noodles were prepared with salt and alkaline reagent. The salt and alkaline concentrations used were 1.7% and 0.17%. respectively, based on the weight of wheat flour. The alkaline reagent was an equal mixture of sodium carbonate and potassium carbonate. The HRW-ASW wheat flour blend had higher farinograph absorption and slightly stronger curve than HRW-WW wheat flour blend. Salt decreased the absorption of wheat flours by 2 and of wheat flour blends by 1%. However, alkaline reagent essentially had no effort on farinograph absorption. Salt and alkaline reagent strengthened the dough of wheat floors and wheat flour blends, with the former being more effective. No significant differences in pasting properties between HRW-WW and HRW-ASW wheat flour blends by amylograph were observed. There were no significant differences in rate of increase of weight or volume between noodles prepared from HRW-WW and HRW-ASW wheat flour blends. Alkaline reagent did not affect the weight gain of noodles hut lowered the volume gain. Breaking force of dry noodles and cutting force of cooked noodles were similar between the two noodles. Alkaline reagent increased both the breaking and cutting forces of noodles. Sensory evaluation revealed that the noodles prepared from HRW-WW and HRW-ASW wheat flour blends were slightly different. but not different from each other by preference test.

This study was to investigate the mixed buckwheat flour quality by observing antimutagenic and cytotoxic effects of mixed buckwheat flour extracts using Ames test and SRB (sulforhodamine B) assay. Samples were prepared to the ratio of 100% (B1), 90% (BF1), 80% (BF2), 70% (BF3) and 60% (BF4) (w/w) flour buckwheat based on wheat flour weight. The initial pasting temperature in an amylograph was increased according to the increase of the buckwheat flour. The water absorption in farinograph decreased with the addition of buckwheat flour. The inhibition rates of B1, BF3 and BF4 extract (160 g/plate) were 45%, 37.3% and 42% against the mutagenesis of Salmonella Typhimurium TA100 induced by MNNG $(0.4{\mu}g/plate)$, respectively. In addition, the B1 at the same concentration showed 64% and 44.3% inhibition on the mutagenesis of Salmonella Typhimurium TA98 and TA100 induced by 4NQO $(0.15{\mu}g/plate)$, respectively. In SRB assay, human breast adenocarcinoma (MCF 7), human hepatocellular carcinoma (Hep3B), human stomach adonocarcinoma (AGS), human lung carcinoma (A549) and human cervical adenocarcinoma (HeLa) proliferations were inhibited by the increase in the sample concentration.

The quality characteristics of the bread prepared with black soybean powder(BSP) were evaluated. Breads were prepared by the addition of 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20％ of BSP to the basic formulation. The pH's of dough with BSP were ranged from 5.13 to 5.77 and that of the control was 5.43. The volume of dough, loaf volume and loaf volume index of the bread with 5％-BSP was the highest. The peak viscosity of the doughs with BSP (200~545 BU) measured by the Amylograph were lower than that of the control (1077 BU). Color $L^{*}$ value of the bread crust and crumb with BSP decreased, and color $a^{*}$ values of the bread crumb with BSP increased, but $a^{*}$ and $b^{*}$ values of the crust with BSP decreased. The hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, and gumminess increased as the concentration of BSP increased. Degree of retrogradations(2.60~4.07) of the bread with BSP was lower than that(6.00) of the control after 48 hrs. From the result of the sensory evaluation, the overall quality score of the bread with 5％-BSP, 4.37, was the highest among samples compared with.ith.ith.

This study was to investigate the suitability of six domestic wheat cultivars for the Korean-style steamed bread made under optimal conditions. Six wheat flours milled from cultivars of Greu, Kumgang, Eunpa, Taptong Kobun, and Allgreu contained 13.8, 13.7, 13.7, 13.0, 11.7, 11.0% of protein. Control bread was made from blend (protein 10.5%) of 50% high strength and 50% low strength wheat flours milled from imported wheats. The volume of steamed bread made from Kumgang was highest followed by Eunpa, Tapdong, Kobun, Greu, control bread, Allgreu. Especially, the bread qualities of Kumgand and Kobun were superior to the control bread, showing better surface characteristics such as smoothness, glossiness, and whiteness, better shapes and desirable texture. Domestic wheat flours, having medium strength with high protein content above 13.0% were suitable for steamed bread except for Greu. Volumes of steamed bread made from domestic wheat flours were correlated with protein and ash content, flour color (L value), farinograph dough development time and stability, whereas spread ratio, total bread score and overall acceptability were correlated with farinograph dough stability It is concluded that flour quality is more important factor than protein content when domestic wheat flours are chosen for Korean-style steamed bread
