This study was conducted to investigate the use of sugar alcohols as alternative sweeteners for replacing sucrose in sponge cake. The sponge cakes were prepared with only sucrose or a 50% replacement of sucrose with various sugar alcohols (erythritol, sorbitol, and xylitol). The specific gravity of cake batter containing only sucrose was significantly higher and the viscosity was significantly lower than those containing sugar alcohol (p<0.001). Among sugar alcohols, xylitol was the most similar to sucrose. The thermal characteristics, as assessed by differential scanning calorimetry, showed that sucrose delayed gelatinization of cake batter more than sugar alcohol, as the onset temperature and the peak temperature of cake batter containing only sucrose were higher than those containing sugar alcohol. The moisture content of cake containing sorbitol was the highest and that containing only sucrose was the lowest among cakes. The specific volume of cakes containing only sucrose and xylitol were higher and the baking loss rate of those were lower than other sugar alcohols. The volume and symmetry index of cake containing only sucrose were the highest among cakes (p<0.001), and xylitol was similar to sucrose for the above indices. The redness (a) and yellowness (b) values of crust containing only sucrose were significantly higher than those containing sugar alcohols (p<0.001). The a and b values of crumb containing erythritol were the lowest among cakes, showing a pale yellowish color. The microstructure, as assessed by scanning electron microscopy, showed that the cake containing only sucrose had more uniformly and finely distributed pores and a smoother cross section than that containing sugar alcohols. Cake containing xylitol was similar to cake containing only sucrose. Hardness, chewiness, and gumminess of cake containing only sucrose were higher than those containing sugar alcohols, whereas the adhesiveness of cakes containing sugar alcohols were higher than those containing only sucrose (p<0.01). Among sugar alcohols, xylitol was the most similar to sucrose in textural properties. In a sensory quality test, the tenderness and moistness of cakes containing sorbitol and erythritol were higher than those containing only sucrose and xylitol. The overall acceptance of cakes containing xylitol and only sucrose were higher than those containing sorbitol and erythritol (p<0.001). Thus, xylitol is more appropriate as a 50% replacement for sucrose than erythritol and sorbitol when preparing sponge cake.

This study investigates the quality characteristics of dough and bread added with 6% chestnut shell powder and extruded chestnut shell powder at various conditions. As extrusion process variables, melt temperature ($110^{\circ}C$, $130^{\circ}C$, $150^{\circ}C$) and moisture (25% and 30%) were controlled. Total dietary fiber content was slightly increased in extruded chestnut shell powder group. In the farinogram, absorption was significantly increased in the group of 25% moisture content and 30% moisture content (p<0.05). After 2 hours and 3 hours, the leavening heights of dough for control showed a similar tendency to that of dough with extruded chestnut shell at a melt temperature $150^{\circ}C$ and with moisture content of 25% and 30%. Specific volume was the highest at a control of $3.74{\pm}0.08cc/g$ and extruded chestnut shell powder group was slightly higher than the chestnut shell powder group. Firmness after 1 day on control of $107.42{\pm}14.52g$ was similar to that of the bread with extruded chestnut shell at a temperature of $150^{\circ}C$ and moisture content of 25% for $113.33{\pm}6.17g$. In conclusion, the extrusion-cooking of chestnut shell powder improved the quality characteristics of dough and bread. The optimum combinations of conditions in tested range were melt temperature at $150^{\circ}C$ and moisture content at 25%, and melt temperature at $130^{\circ}C$ and moisture content at 30%.

The long term stability of ion current of QMS has been one of key parameters for monitoring gas process in vacuum. The time dependence of ionic current was monitored while the pressure of nitrogen gas was kept at a fixed pressure by introducing the gas into vacuum chamber. The chamber was evacuated to ${\sim}3{\times}10^{-9}\;Torr$ to reduce background signals before the measurement. Two ion sources were tested; one had brownish or black color due to gas contamination and the other one was new, i.e. cleaner. At a nitrogen pressure of $1{\times}10^{-5}\;Torr$, the ionic currents measured by the contaminated ion source decreased faster with time. The decrease rate was respectively ${\sim}46%$ for cleaner one and ${\sim}84%$ for contaminated one after ${\sim}5.5%$ hours. In order to test the effect of filament material on the ion current decrease, we fabricated a tungsten(W) filament which consisted of two parts; one half was made of W and the other was coated with yttria. The similar decrease of ionic currents were shown for the two types of filaments, indicating that slight change of temperature of filament due to material difference i.e. baking effect could not improve the origin of ionic current decrease. Overall the decreasing rate of ionic current is more closely associated with contaminated ion source of QMS rather than its filament materials.

The reological properties of doughs blended with cereal flours were investigated in the study. The doughs were prepared of wheat flours mixed with 10％, 20%, 30% and 40% ratio of rice flour, waxy-rice flour, brown-rice flour and soybean flour. Amylogram, farinogram, extensogram and SEM were used to measured thier special properties with graphs and photos. The results were obtained as followes; 1. Wheat dough formation after fermantation, showed "stringing" structure of small starch granules on the SEM photo. But the large starch granules contributed little to the structure formation in rice flours dough, and played relatively a little role in the structure formation of blended doughs of waxy-rice, brown-rice and soy- bean flours. 2. The absorption of flour composited rice and brown-rice, was lower than that of the control by Farinograph. It was decreased the farinograph absorption with the increase of replacement ratio of cereal flours. Dough development time of cereal blended flours decreased, but that time of waxy-rice and brown-rice were very similiar. Farinograph stability of rice, waxy-rice, brown-rice and soybean blended flours, had shorter than that of wheat-flour. 3. The results showed that cereal blended flours decreased the resistance to extention (elasticity) without affecting the extensibility in fermented dough by Extensograph. 4. The gelatinization temperature of wheat, rice, waxy-rice, and brown-rice were 55.0$^{\circ}C$, 64.0$^{\circ}C$, 58.0$^{\circ}C$ and 61.0$^{\circ}C$. But that of all cereal blended flours showed 58.0$^{\circ}C$ except 20% or 30% soybean blended flours. According to the amylogram, each maximum viscosity of rice flour and wheat flour was 1760 B.U.,760 B.U.. Soybean composite flours had significantly lowe. amylograph peak viscosity (300 B.U.) than that of the other composite flours (450 B.U.-1100 B.U.).

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of the additive chitosan on the storage characteristics and quality attributes of sponge cake. In addition to a control sample with no chitosan, sponge cake was prepared with the addition of various concentrations of chitosan (1,000, 2,000 and 3,000 ppm), and stored for 5 days at three temperatures ($5^{\circ}C$, $15^{\circ}C$ and $25^{\circ}C$). The control sample demonstrated considerable hardness compared to other samples containing chitosan regardless of storage temperature and period. The degree of retrogradation of the samples containing chitosan was higher than that of the control samples, with values under 30% regardless of the concentration of chitosan or storage condition. The total color variance(E) of the control sample and the samples with chitosan did not show a significant difference. The overall acceptability of the samples containing 1,000 ppm chitosan was similar to the control sample.

This study explores the quality characteristics of white pan bread added with perilla leaf powder, and the results are as follows. The WRC(water retention capacity) of PLP (perilla leaf powder) added to the bread dough increased as the addition increased, and the initiation temperature during the rapid visco analysis (RVA) increased with more additions, showing significant differences. The highest and the lowest viscosity of the sample decreased as the powder added increased. The brightness(L value) of the bread without the powder was the highest, and the redness (a value) and the yellowness (b value) showed significant differences among the samples. Hardness increased showing significant differences among the samples as the powder added increased Chewiness was the highest but preference value was the lowest in the sample with 7% of the powder. The lowest score was shown in the color of the sample with the most PLP added. Flavor was the lowest of 4.93 in the comparison sample without the leaf powder added while bitter taste scored the highest of 5.21 in the sample of 3% powder added. It was also the highest in overall acceptance while the sample with the most powder showed the lowest of 4.03. From these results, it can be said that the preference of bread with PLP seems to decrease when more than 5% of PLP is added.

Phenolic compounds of $17.9{\pm}1.0mg/g$ were extracted from Ulmus pumila with 70% ethanol. The elastase inhibitory activity related with forming wrinkle was shown an excellent wrinkle improvement effect in 70% ethanol extracts as 55.5-69.5% at phenolic concentration of $50-200{\mu}g/mL$. The tyrosinase inhibitory activity related with skin-whitening was 24% in 70% ethanol extracts at phenolic concentration of $200{\mu}g/mL$. The astringent activity of 70% ethanol extracts was shown activity of 71% at phenolic concentration of $200{\mu}g/mL$ therefore it is judged that there is a high effect on pores reduction of the skin. The hyaluronidase inhibitory activity of U. pumila extracts was confirmed anti-inflammation effect of 80% at phenolic concentration of $50{\mu}g/mL$. Antimicrobial activity of U. pumila water extracts was shown each 8.7, 10.0, 11.1 and 11.8 mm clear zones on Propionebacterium acnes at phenolic concentration of $50-200{\mu}g/mL$. The stability of the multi-functional cosmetic (lotion) added U. pumila extracts was very stable for 28 days without changing of pH and viscosity also it's stable on temperature and sun lights. As the concentration of extracts was increased, the color of lotion was getting dark, but the sensory evaluation was high at score of 8.5.

This study investigated changes in the physicochemical characteristics and coffee flavors of coffee beans under different roasting conditions. Four different kinds of roasted coffees were analyzed using a headspace gas chromatographic technique. The moisture content and total acidity of roasted coffee decreased whereas the pH and weight loss (%) increased, as coffee beans were roasted at higher temperatures. The Hunter's color values of the roasted coffee (indicating L (lightness) and b (yellowness)) decreased as the roasting temperature of the coffee beans increased, but a (redness) value only increased with light roasting. We also noted that the color of the Arabica coffee was darker than that of the Robusta coffee. The aroma compounds, acetaldehyde, acetone, 2-methylfuran, 2-methylbutanol, 2-methylpyrazine, furfural, 2-propanone, furfuryl alcohol, 2,5-dimethylpyrazine and furfuryl acetate were mainly analyzed. A sensory evaluation of all light-roasted coffees had flavor and sourness and those of all medium-roasted coffees had heaviness and finishness.

The breadmaking characteristics of composite flour containing 30% of buckwheat and 70% of wheat with the addition of vital wheat gluten and water-soluble gums, were studied to establish the optimum formula for the development of buckwheat bread. The addition of vital wheat gluten or/and gums led to successful formation of buckwheat bread, giving loaf volume increase and improvement of sensory quality, especially texture determined by QDA (Quantitative Descriptive Analysis). Among those additives, xanthan gum showed the best volume expansion. Synergistic effects on bread quality were observed when the vital wheat gluten and xanthan gum or guar gum were used together. As buckwheat flour was substituted for wheat flour, gelatinization started early and the maximum viscosity increased measured by an amylography. The addition of gluten and gums caused the initial gelatinization to occur at a higher temperature and maximum viscosity to decrease.
