Cowpea, mung bean, Kidney bean and red bean are simular properties. In order to elucidate the similarity among these four starches, some physicochemical properties of starches were compared. Water binding capacity of kidney bean and red bean (199%) starches are higher than mung bean and cowpea. The solubility, swlling power and optical transmittance of the four starches showed a similar pattern, but kidney bean and red bean starches had a lower swelling power than cowpea starches. Cowpea, mung bean, kidney bean and red bean starches had the blue value of 0.41, 0.47, 0.42 and 0.50, the alkali content of 8.4, 8.0, 4.13, 4.13, the amylose content of amylose of 30,000, 29,268, 52, 173 and 33, 611 and glucose unit per segment of amylopectin of 27.6, 26.8, 18.35 and 12.9 respectively. The results of X-ray diffraction studies showed A pattern for four starches.

The physicochemical, rheological and sensory characteristics of Backsulgies added with dietary fibers-cellulose, pectin and wheat bran-were investigated. The maximum acceptable ratio of fibers was 10% for wheat bran or cellulose, 3% for pectin. As me results of physicochemical analysis, cellulose and pectin had larger water-binding capacity man wheat bran. Swelling power was increased with temperature increment. But the type of added dietary fiber did not make significant differences. The degree of gelatinization was measured by maltose content. The retrogradation of backsulgies was significantly delayed by the addition of dietary fibers. The retardation effect of dietary fibers for retrogradation of backsulgies was also proved by textural analysis and time constant determination of Avrami equation. Pectin had especially excellent delaying effect while me storage time extended. There were no significant differences in sensory characteristics between me backsulgi with no dietary fibers and backsulgies added with cellulose 3%, pectin 1% and wheat bran 3%. Therefore, we concluded mat cellulose 3%, pectin 1% and wheat bran 3% were me optimum addition ratios, which have the delaying effect of retrogradation, and which could be accepted as same as conventional backsulgies organoreptically.

The objectives of this study were to develop restructured meat products(RMPs) using a transgluta-minase(TGase) and to improve the textural characteristics of RMPs manufactured with pale, soft, exudative(PSE) pork hams. The pH values of RMPs with PSE and normal pork were 5.94 and 6.07, respectively, and their water activity value was approximately 0.981. The RMPs had 70∼72％ moisture, 4∼5％ fat, 19∼20％ protein, and approximately 3％ ash contents. No differences in pH, water activity, chemical composition, and hunter color values were observed between RMPs manufactured with normal and PSE pork(p＞0.05). However, RMPs containing PSE pork hams had higher drip loss(％)(p＞0.05) than those with normal pork hams after 10 days of refrigerated storage. Although no differences were observed in the texture profile analysis(TPA) hardness and sensory evaluation, RMPs with PSE pork hams tended to have more pores and lower binding capacity those with normal pork. This result indicated that additional substrates or longer tumbling time(＞4 hr) for the manufacture of RMPs containing PSE pork were required for the products to have similar palatability to those with normal pork.

This study is interested in identifying the effectiveness of alkali-activated fire protection material compounds including the alkali-activator such as potassium hydroxide, sodium silicate and fly ash as the fire resistant finishing materials. Also, this paper is concerned with change in compressive strength and pore structure of the alkali-activated fire protection material at high temperatures. The testing methods of fire protection materials in high temperature properties are make use of TG-DSC and mercury intrusion porosimetry measurements. This study results show that compressive strength is rapidly degraded depending on a rise of heating temperature. Porosity showed a tendency to increase irrespective of specimen types. This is due to both the outbreak of collapse of gel comprising the cement and a micro crack by heating. However, alkali-activated fire protection material composed of potassium hydroxide, sodium silicate and fly ash has the thermal stability of the slight decrease of compressive strength and porosity at high temperature. These thermal stability is caused by the ceramic binding capacity induced by alkali activation reaction by the reason of the thermal analysis result not showing the decomposition of calcium hydrate.

In this study the rheological properties of Jeung-pyun prepared with soybean protein isolate (SPI) were investigated. SPI Jeung-pyun samples were manufactured with 3% whole protein, 7S protein, or 11S protein (w/w). In terms of moisture content the Jeung-pyun samples prepared with soybean flour had greater moisture contents than the control group. With the addition of SPI water binding capacity solubility and swelling power increased. Dough pH decreased during the fermentation, but increased after steaming and the SPI Jeung-pyun samples presented higher pH levels han the control group. Foaming ability was significantly strong in the 7S, 11S and whole protein groups. The surface structures of the 7S, 11S and whole protein Jeung-pyun samples displayed small uniform pores when examined by SEM. Overall, the results suggest that SPI can contribute to quality improvements in Jeung-pyun through effects on dough fermentation.

In this study, gluten-free noodles were developed and the physicochemical quality of gluten-free noodles added with nondigestible maltodextrin (NMD) was also investigated. The gluten-free noodles were prepared by addition of 0, 5, 7, and 9% NMD of total ingredients except water. Inhibition activities for ${alpha}$-amylase and ${alpha}$-glucosidase according to the addition amounts of NMD were evaluated. As a result, activities of carbohydrate-digestive enzymes decreased with an increase of the added NMD amounts. Water binding capacity and solubility of raw noodles increased upon NMD addition. Swelling power also increased as temperature rose. L value of raw noodles decreased with the addition of NMD, but b value increased. Texture profile analysis of cooked noodles showed reduction of hardness, springiness, and chewiness of noodles with NMD. On the other hand, tensile strength of cooked noodles containing up to 7% NMD was not significantly different from that of noodle without NMD. In the sensory evaluation, elasticity of noodles with 9% NMD was lower than that of other noodles, whereas other characteristics of noodles were not significantly different among noodles. Therefore, it was confirmed that the addition of 5~7% NMD had little effect on the sensory quality of noodles.

This study was performed to investigate the iron status and its related factors in female college students residing in Gyeongnam. The prevalence of iron deficiency among subjects ranged from 3.4% in mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) to 43.7% in ferritin. Weight, lean body mass (LBM) and body mass index (BMI) were positively correlated with ferritin concentration, but negatively correlated with total iron binding capacity (TIBC). Among the nutrients, vitamin A and B2 were major predictors of elevated iron status. Meal regularity was positively correlated with Fe and ferritin concentration, and meal number with transferrin saturation (TS), meal quantity with red blood cell (RBC) and hematocrit (Hct). Consumption of fruit, meat, fish and poultry showed strong positive correlation with hematological indices. Therefore, increasing vitamin A, B2, C, and iron intakes as well as maintenance of a healthy weight may be helpful in preventing iron deficiency in female college students.

This study was performed to find out the quality characteristics of Noodles by addition of red ginseng powder(0, 2, 4, 6, 8%). The quality characteristics of the sample were estimated in terms of general com-position, color difference, cookery characteristics(water absorption, volume of cooked noodles, turbidity), texture profile analysis and sensory evaluation. The protein, lipid, ash, Na and water binding capacity did not show significant difference in any of the groups. In red ginseng powder added groups, moisture contents, a and b values significantly increased but L value considerably decreased(p<0.05). The weight, volume, water absorption of the cooked noodles and turbidity of 8% of red ginseng powder added group were significantly higher than the control group(p<0.05). In texture profile analysis, adhesiveness, gumminess, hardness and springiness significantly decreased(p<0.05) with more red ginseng powder added. Chewiness and cohesiveness significantly(p<0.05) increased with the 4, 6, 8% of red ginseng powder added. In sensory evaluation, surface color was very good in the 8% red ginseng powder added group while taste and flavor of red ginseng were very good except the 8% red ginseng powder added group(p<0.05). Appearance and overall quality were highest in the 4% red ginseng powder added group(p<0.05). Therefore, noodles containing 4% red ginseng powder were most preferable.

Silver nanoparticle (Ag-NPs)-immobilized and amine-functionalized carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), MWCNT-Ag-$NH_2$, were easily prepared in order to develop an efficient delivery system of biomolecules without complicated processes of manufacture. For this, Ag-NPs-immobilized MWCNTs, MWCNT-Ag, were initially prepared in order to create large surface area to enable more efficient linkage with guest-molecules using pristine MWCNTs. The Ag-NPs on MWCNTs were further positively functionalized with 2-aminoethanthiol to allow ionic linkage with biomolecules. Ultimately, the positively charged delivery system proved to be highly effective for the binding capacity of bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a negatively charged model protein, when compared to that of lysozyme used as a positively charged model protein. The releasing profile of BSA was observed in almost linear pattern for about two weeks in a saline solution. This study demonstrated the potential usefulness of the pristine MWCNTs in conjunction with Ag-NPs for the selective delivery of many (negatively or positively) charged biomolecules including proteins and genes.
