As interest in health has recently increased, many researchers have investigated the utilization of functional foods by confectioneries and bakeries. However, research on loaf bread containing beets has not been conducted. To investigate the optimal ratio of beet in loaf bread containing beet powder, characteristics of loaf bread according to 2%(B2), 4%(B4), and 6%(B6) beet powder per wheat flour were examined. The experimental results were as follows. Fermentation rate was reduced as content of beet powder increased compared with the control, whereas pH levels of dough and loaf bread significantly increased as content of beet powder increased. As content of beet powder increased, volume of loaf bread decreased, whereas specific volume increased. There was no significant difference in volume of loaf bread between the samples. As far as color changes are concerned, as content of beet powder increased, L value decreased, whereas a and b values increased with significant differences between the samples. Characteristics were examined by sensory evaluation of loaf bread containing beet powder. Color of inner texture and peel color of loaf bread significantly increased as content of beet powder increased. Size of air pores was largest in B4, and there was no significant difference in the uniformity of loaf bread between the control and experiment groups. As content of beet powder increased, rigidity of bread was reduced. Control showed the highest elasticity, whereas moisture level was highest in B2 with no significant differences between the samples. The flavor of beet was stronger as content of beet powder increased. In the preference test, B4 showed the highest preference scores for texture, flavor, taste, and overall likeness but not appearance. The experimental results showed that B4 among all control and experimental groups had the most suitable baking characteristics and an optimum content of beet powder. Therefore, B4 can be considered as the most appropriate for making loaf bread containing 4% beet powder in terms of physical and sensory characteristics. This is a new product that satisfies overall sensory preferences and has improved functionality.

The purpose of this study was to assess red beet as a natural colorant in emulsified pork sausage and to investigate the effect of red beet on quality characteristics of emulsified pork sausage during 20 d of cold storage. Red beet was prepared as a powder and a substitute with sodium nitrite at 0.5% and 1.0% levels in emulsified pork sausage. Red beet significantly increased the moisture content and pH (p<0.0001) and affected color traits. Lightness of emulsified pork sausage decreased by the addition of red beet powder (p<0.01), whereas lightness with red beet treatments slightly increased during 20 d of cold storage at $4^{\circ}C$ (p<0.05). Redness dramatically increased with red beet powder (p<0.0001). Color by sensory evaluation also showed a significant effect from red beet addition (p<0.05), whereas the other sensory properties such as flavor, tenderness, juiciness, and overall acceptability were not affected by the addition of red beet powder (p>0.05). Texture and 2-thiobabituric acid reactive substance were also not affected by red beet addition (p>0.05). Therefore, red beet could be a good natural colorant in emulsified pork sausage but it needs additional processing, such as betalain concentration and extraction as a juice, to be used as an antioxidant in meat products.

This study investigated the substitution of beet powder for rice flour in julpyun recipes with amounts of 0, 1, 3, and 5%. The beet powder had a moisture content, crude protein content, crude fat content, crude ash content, crude dietary fiber content, DPPH radical scavenging activity and total phenol content of 18.90, 1.37, 0.17, 0.91, 3.65, 12.03%, and 87.63 mg, respectively. The moisture content decreased with increasing beet powder content. The pH, DPPH and total phenol content increased with increasing beet powder content. The chromaticity measurement result showed that the 'L' and 'b' of julpyun decreased with increasing beet powder content, but 'a' increased. The texture measurement result showed that the hardness, cohesiveness and chewiness of julpyun increased with increasing beet powder content, but the springiness decreased. The adhesiveness was similar regardless of the beet powder content. The overall preference scores showed a high overall acceptability for julpyun made with 3% beet powder.

This work aimed to investigate the physiochemical properties of commercial sugars (white sugar, dark brown sugar, organic sugar, and muscovado) and sugar beet. Percentages of crude protein, crude fat and crude fiber in sugar beet were 4.06, 6.36 and 0.02%, respectively, and the degrees of sugar of white sugar and sugar beet were $93^{\circ}$ Brix and $78^{\circ}$ Brix, respectively. L(lightness) value scores of white sugar were higher while the turbidity of sugar beet was higher. White sugar, dark brown sugar, and organic sugar were composed of only sucrose, whereas muscovad and sugar beet were composed of fructose, glucose, and sucrose. The highest organic acid content was observed in sugar beet. The contents of amino acids in sugar beet were in the following order: proline ($161.23\;{\mu}g$/100 g) > aspartic acid ($161.23\;{\mu}g$/100 g) > leucine ($36.93\;{\mu}g$/100 g) > alanine ($17.40\;{\mu}g$/100 g). There were 16 free amino acids in sugar beet. The highest mineral contest was observed in sugar beet in the order of K > Ca > Na > Mg. This result indicates that sugar beet can be prepared by considering the characteristics of natural sugar materials.

We investigated the effects of fermented red beet extract and ascorbic acid on color development in meat emulsions. The pH of meat emulsions containing red beet extract decreased with an increase in the amount of extract added. The redness of the treated meat emulsions was higher than that of the control with no added nitrite or fermented red beet extract (p< 0.05), though the redness of the meat emulsions treated with fermented red beet extract only was lower than in that treated with both fermented red beet extract and ascorbic acid (p<0.05). The highest VBN, TBARS, and total viable count values were observed in the control, and these values in the meat emulsions treated with fermented red beet extract were higher than in that treated with both fermented red beet extract and ascorbic acid (p<0.05). E. coli and coliform bacteria were not found in any of the meat emulsions tested. Treatment T2, containing nitrite and ascorbic acid, had the highest overall acceptability score (p<0.05); however, there was no significant difference between the T2 treatment and the T6 treatment, which contained 10% pre-converted nitrite from red beet extract and 0.05% ascorbic acid (p>0.05). The residual nitrite content of the meat emulsions treated with ascorbic acid was lower than in those treated without ascorbic acid (p<0.05). Thus, the combination of fermented red beet extract and ascorbic acid could be a viable alternative to synthetic nitrite for the stability of color development in meat emulsions.

This study is performed to examine the functional and quality characteristics of glutinous barley Jeung-pyun added with beet powder. Jeung-pyun is being prepared with concentration of 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8% (w/w) of the beet according to nonglutinous rice powder weight. The pH level of Jeung-pyun batters decrease along with fermentation time. However, the pH level of Jeung-pyun is higher than that of the Jeung-pyun batter. For hunter's color value of glutinous barley Jeung-pyun added with beet powder, the L (lightness) values decrease with increasing concentrations of beet powder, whereas a (redness) values increase (p<0.001). In the texture analysis, the hardness, chewiness and gumminess are significantly increased with the amount of glutinous barley Jeung-pyun with added beet powder. According to sensory evaluations, the appearance, color, flavor, taste, texture and overall quality are considered very good in the 4% of added beer powder in glutinous barley Jeung-pyun (p<0.001). The antioxidant activities of beet powder by DPPH free radical scavenging activity, ferric reducing antioxidant power and total phenolic contents are being recorded at $259.52{\mu}{\ell}/mg$, $0.44{\pm}0.01$, $15.29{\pm}0.04mg$ GAE/g respectively. The antioxidant activities of glutinous barley Jeung-pyun added with beet powder increase with increasing concentrations of beet powder. These results suggest that beet powder are useful as functional food resources within antioxidant activities.

Obesity is caused by the accumulation of triglycerides in adipocytes by the differentiation and lipid synthesis process of pre-adipocytes, and excessive accumulation of adipocytes by the activated Adipogenesis process within the differentiated cells. Therefore, inhibiting the differentiation of adipocyte cells or controlling the adipogenesis process is known as an effective treatment method for obesity. This study evaluates the inhibition of Red beet root extract on pancreatic lipase and pre-adipocyte cell differentiation. Also it evaluates the Red beet root extract activities on C/EBP-𝛼,𝛽, and PPAR-𝛄. The experiments proved that the Red beet root extract inhibits pancreatic lipase by concentration dependency. Further, in 3T3-L1 inhabitation experiment, it was found Red beet root extract inhibited adipocyte formation. Red beet root extract also inhibits the expression of C/EBP-𝛼, C/EBP-𝛽, and PPAR-𝛾 which effect the process of adipocytic differentiation. We therefore concluded that RBE has a high potential to further studies on anti-obesity effect.

This study was carried out to investigate seed germination and seedling of cabbage and sugar beet in four treatments of salinity including 0 (control), 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5％ NaCl. The results showed that different treatments of salinity had considerable effects on the germination and root and shoot length of cabbage and sugar beet. Percent of germination in both species showed significant decrease with increasing salinity up to 1.5％ NaCl. This decrease was more evident in cabbage when compared to sugar beet. The required time for germination increased with high levels of salinity. The seedling growth of both species were inhibited by all salinity levels. Particularly at 1.0 and 1.5％ NaCl, no measurable length was observed in cabbage and sugar beet. At 0.5％ NaCl root growth of both plant species was more affected as compared to shoot growth by salinity.
