The purposes of this study were to identify the actual utilization condition of combi-steam ovens and to evaluate the importance and the satisfaction of dietitians and cooks who used the oven in school foodservice. A survey of 300 schools, 1 dietitian and 1 cook from each school respectively; total 600, was conducted and 202 completed questionnaires were available for the purpose of the statistical evaluation. The main results of this study were summarized as follows: Among the schools, 70.5% set up the oven during 2007~2009, the most commonly used cooking method was 'Baking (87.0%)' and the way of acquiring recipes for the oven was 'from oven manufacturing company (50.0%)'. The advantage of using the oven was 'the convenient use of the oven (63.3%)' and the disadvantage was 'Difficulty of cooking foods evenly (59.8%)'. The degree of importance and satisfaction on twenty six attributes were measured according to type of school, location of school, number of meal service per day, and number of total serving per day. Among quality attributes of importance of the oven utilization, 19/18 characteristics were assessed over 4 point (important) out of 5 scale by dietitians/cooks respectively and in satisfaction 16/18 were over 4 points (satisfied) by dietitians/cooks respectively. When it comes to the most satisfied factor of combi-steam oven, 'Improvement of cooking baked foods' was highest for dietitians (4.60 point) and 'Checking temperature of cooked foods' was for cooks (4.49 point). In overall satisfaction of the oven use, the average score was 4.10 point for dietitians, 3.98 point for cooks out of a 5 point scale. Using the survey results as a base, school foodservices are required to use the combi-steam oven efficiently to serve high quality of meals for students.

The effect of baking on the consumer perception and sensory characteristics was investigated using a model system of cookies incorporated with strawberry powder as a value-added food ingredient. Strawberry powder was incorporated into cookie dough at 4 levels (0%, 2%, 4%, and 6%, w/w) by replacing equivalent amount of wheat flour of the cookie dough. After aging and sheeting, cookies were baked at $170^{\circ}C$ for 15 min in an oven. The baked cookies were cooled to room temperature for 1 h and packed in airtight bags prior to all measurements. In terms of color, control received the most favorable mean score, which is significantly higher than others (p<0.05) followed by the 4% sample. The consumer preference on taste and aftertaste was not significantly affected by the amount of strawberry powder incorporated in the formulation (p>0.05). Samples with 4% strawberry powder received the highest mean flavor score of 6.28 which is significantly higher than that of 6% sample (p<0.05). In overall, substitution of 4% strawberry powder in the formulation would result in the most favorable strawberry cookies by the consumers with taking advantages of health benefits of strawberry. Correlation analysis indicated that strawberry powder concentration was significantly correlated positively with sensory color and hardness and negatively correlated with consumers' overall acceptability (p<0.05). Consumers' aftertaste was significantly correlated with overall acceptability which was negatively correlated with sensory hardness (p<0.05). Sensory hardness was highly correlated with sensory color attribute (p<0.05).

Sulgidduk samples containing 2, 4, and 8% red ginseng powder and a control[ED highlight - consider specifying what the control was, if 0%, then change to Sulgidduk samples containing 0(control), 2, 4 and 8%] were examined for moisture content, color, gelatinization properties, textural characteristics, and sensory qualities to determine the optimal ratio of red ginseng powder in the formulation. The moisture contents among the samples did not differ significantly. Specifically, they ranged from 39.64 to 40.69%, and increased as the red ginseng powder content increased. Additionally, the lightness decreased and the yellowness and redness increased as the red ginseng powder content increased. Evaluation of the gelatinization properties revealed that the, peak viscosity(P), hold viscosity(H), final viscosity(F), setback, and time to peak viscosity decreased with increasing red ginseng powder content, but the breakdown and temperature to peak viscosity did not differ significantly among samples[ED highlight - please ensure my changes are correct]. The hardness and adhesiveness decreased with increasing red ginseng powder content, as did the cohesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness; however, the springiness did not differ significantly among samples. Sulgidduk containing 4% red ginseng received the highest scores for flavor, taste, texture and overallquality. Based on the above results of the sensory and texture analyses, Sulgidduk containing 4% red ginseng had the highest quality[ED highlight - please ensure my changes are correct].

Generic HACCP models for bakery products may help HACCP implementation at the wholesale bakery production lines easier. When baking, the internal temperature of bakery products went up to $85^{\circ}C$, which resulted in gelatinization of starch. Considering the characteristics of bakery products, general sanitation control procedures are the main target tool to keep bakery products safe. Monitoring of pathogenic microorganisms at bakery plant environment including production lines was carried out. At the wholesale bakery environment pathogenic microorganisms were detected. It gave a clue that general sanitation control procedures should be implemented for safe bakery products supply. Hazard analysis of raw materials and processing of bakery products, and determination of critical control points and critical limits at the wholesale bakeries lead to present generic model of bakery product HACCP plan. CCPs for the wholesale bakery products may be applied and modified for the implementation of HACCP plan at the wholesale bakery plant.

Unlike water applications, the photocatalytic technique utilizing light-emitting-diodes as an alternative light source to conventional lamp has rarely been applied for low-level indoor air purification. Accordingly, this study investigated the applicability of UV-LED to annular-type photocatalytic reactor for removal of indoor-level benzene and toluene at a low concentration range associated with indoor air quality issues. The characteristics of photocatalyst was determined using an X-ray diffraction meter and a scanning electron microscope. The photocatalyst baked at $350^{\circ}C$ exhibited the highest photocatalytic degradation efficiencies(PDEs) for both benzene and toluene, and the photocatalysts baked at three higher temperatures(450, 550, and $650^{\circ}C$) did similar PDEs for these compounds. The average PDEs over a 3-h period were 81% for benzene and close to 100% for toluene regarding the photocatalyst baked at $350^{\circ}C$, whereas they were 61 and 74% for benzene and toluene, respectively, regarding the photocatalyst baked at $650^{\circ}C$. As the light intensity increased from 2.4 to 3.5 MW $cm^{-1}$, the average PDE increased from 36 to 81% and from 44% to close to 100% for benzene and toluene, respectively. In addition, as the flow rate increased from 0.1 to 0.5 L $min^{-1}$, the average PDE decreased from 81% to close to zero and from close to 100% to 7% for benzene and toluene, respectively. It was found that the annular-type photocatalytic reactor inner-inserted with UV-LEDs can effectively be applied for the decomposition of low-level benzene and toluene under the operational conditions used in this study.

Replacement of wheat flour by 10, 20 30% waxy and normal (non-waxy) hull-less barley flour was tested for the effects on bread-making properties. The addition of waxy hull-less barley flour resulted in lower amylograph pasting temperature, peak, and set back viscosities and in higher water absorption, compared with normal hull-less barley flour. Increasing proportions of hull-less barley flour significantly decreased the loaf volume and had deleterious effects on subjective bread scoring. Replacement of 10% of wheat flour by both waxy and normal hull-less barley flour did not significantly affect bread characteristics. However, significant differences in bread quality were observed between the control bread and bread containing more than 20% barley flour, with the normal barley flour showing slightly better scores in organoleptical preference. Textural measurements of crumb firmness showed that the bread containing 20% waxy hull-less barley flour hardened slower during 5-day storage at $25^{\circ}C$ than bread containing normal hull-lee barley flour.

This study investigated quality characteristics of pan breads prepared with 0, 10, 20, 30 and 40% purple rice flour and naturally fermented blueberry-rice starters. RVA (Rapid Visco Analyzer) analysis showed that wheat flour retrogradation was not retarded by addition of purple rice flour. Using amylography, gelatinization tem. perature of purple rice flour samples was higher than that of the control, whereas maximum viscosity temperature. and maximum viscosity of purple rice flour samples were lower than those of the control. Weights of pan breads containing purple rice flour were lower than that of the control, whereas volume, specific volume and baking loss rate were higher than those of the control. The anthocyanin contents and antioxidative activites as measured by DPPH radical scavenging activity of breads increased as the concentration of purple rice flour increased. The moisture content of pan breads containing purple rice flour decreased as storage time increased. The pH of breads containing purple rice flour was higher than that of the control. Color L value decreased, whereas a and b values increased significantly, as storage time increased. In texture analyzer measurement, hardness of breads containing purple rice flour significantly increased as storage time increased. Breads containing 10~20% purple rice flour showed acceptable sensory properties, such as mouth feel, appearance, flavor, texture, taste and overall acceptability.

The properties of water soluble powder of propolis(WSP), made with different levels(0, 20, 40, 60, 80%) of ethanol extract of propolis(EEP) and hydrocolloid were investigated, along with the quality changes of its bread after 7 days' of storage at $30^{\circ}C$ The yield of WSP containing 40% EEP treated at $160^{\circ}C$ was the highest at 59.3% and the brown color of all the powders tended to be darkened with increasing EEP content. The turbidity of WSP treated at higher temperature was decreased in its aqueous solution (10%, w/w), and this was considered to be due to the presence of minute nonsoluble particles. Antioxidative activities determined by DPPH(1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) were the lowest in WSP treated at $140^{\circ}C$, while those of the WSP samples prepared at 160 and $180^{\circ}C$ were as high as that of WSP containing more than 40% EEP, regardless of EEP concentration. The propolis breads with added WSP made at $160^{\circ}C$ were selected as the most desirable powder for subsequent study. Bread with WSP40 was the heaviest while the volume loss of WSP80 was the greast after baking. The moisture contents of the propolis bread were drastically decreased until 3 days' of storage, but it was thought that WSP might be ineffective for the prevention of moisture loss. The pH of breads without EEP was decreased after 3 days' of storage, while that of the WSP breads remained almost unchanged until 5 days' of storage. Total bacterial counts also exhibited decay levels during the storage. In conclusion, water soluble powder of propolis is useful as a natural antioxidative and antibacterial material in various types of food.

The effects of chlorine treatment on the rheological properties (farinogram, extensogram, amylogram) of soft white wheat flour were studied by treating flour with different amounts (1, 2 and 4 ounces per 100 pounds of flour) of liquidized chlorine gas. Departure time, water absorption and dough stability increased while mechanical tolerance index decreased as the level of chlorine increased. It was appeared that extensibility and resistance at chlorine level of 1 to 2 oz was appropriate for baking properties of flour compared to those of untreated wheat flour. The temperature at maximum viscosity increased gradually with increasing levels of chlorine. It was noted that maximum viscosity was greatly increased at 4 oz compared to those of lower levels of chlorine treatment.

The effects of baking with broccoli powder on the consumer perception and sensory characteristics were investigated using a model system of cookies incorporated with broccoli powder as a value-added food ingredient. Broccoli powder was incorporated into cookie dough at 5 levels (0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, and 4%, w/w) by replacing equivalent amount of wheat flour of the cookie dough. After aging and sheeting, cookies were baked at $170^{\circ}C$ for 8 min in an oven. The baked cookies were cooled to room temperature for 1 hour and packed in airtight bags prior to all measurements. Control received the most favorable mean score, which was not significantly different from samples with 1% broccoli powder for color preference (p>0.05). Results of the consumer preference on taste showed a similar trend. Consumers did not find any significant differences on aftertaste and flavor among samples prepared by replacing wheat flour with up to 2% broccoli powder (p>0.05). Overall, incorporation of 1% broccoli powder in the formulation would result in the most favorable broccoli cookies for the consumers without sacrificing the sensory qualities, while still taking advantages of health benefits of broccoli. Correlation analysis indicated that broccoli powder concentration was significantly negatively correlated with the consumer preference for color, taste, aftertaste, flavor, overall acceptability and positively correlated with sensory color, taste, and flavor (p<0.05). Consumers' color, taste, aftertaste, and flavor were well correlated with the overall acceptability (p<0.05). Sensory intensity results are also presented.
