Changes of concentration properties and shelf-life were investigated for preservation using Kalopanax pictus extract. We compared physicochemical (pH, sugar content, total acidity, color) and microbiological qualities of concentrated extract and extract with glucose added. At the result, pH of samples were increased as storage time increase. Whereas samples were not significantly different sugar content and total acidity as storage time. In Hunters color values, whiteness(L) and yellowness(b) value of samples tended to decrease during storage time but increase after 2 weeks of storage time. The samples were contaminated by microbial levels of 3.6$\times$10$^{1}$$\~$1.330$\times$10$^{3}$ CFU/g in total aerobic bacterial counts and negative in collforms. Samples at 2 $^{\circ}$Brix and 1 $\%$ glucose were effective for keeping the microbial population less than 2.0$\times$10$^{1}$ CFU/g.

Experiments on sweet sorghum(sorgo) with different population per unit area were conducted from 1966 to 1968 for the first time in Korea. By increasing plant population stalk weight, refinable sugar and seed weight per plot were increased, but stalk weight per plant, brix percentage, sugar content, stem diameter and 1, 000 seed weight were decreased. Plant height, maturity and lodging were not affected by the treatments. The result obtained has suggested that the effects of plant spacing within row on the characteristics of plant growth and on yields were greater than those of row width. Negative correlations existed between sugar content and sugar yield, and seed weight per plant and seed yield. The optimal plant population in this study ranged from 16, 700 to 22, 200 plants per 10a, row width of 60cm and plant spacing in row of 15 to 20cm resulted in the highest sugar and seed.

Red wines were prepared with Campbell Early harvested at Youngdong, Chungbuk Province in 1999 of which average sugar content and total acidity(tartaric acid %) were $12^{\circ}Brix$ and 0.7%, respectively. In order to investigate the effect of addition of various sugars on the quality of red wine, sucrose, xylitol, glucose, corn syrup, high fructose corn syrup(HFCS) and isomaltooligosaccharide(IMO) were added to musts to have $21^{\circ}Brix$ of sugar content. Fermentation of red wine in which glucose was added was faster than any other sugars with the final ethanol content of 12%(v/v). Wines to which sucrose and HFCS were added showed similar fermentation rates to glucose added one but alcohol contents were 10.3%(v/v) and 11.2%(v/v), respectively. Alcohol contents of wines made with xylitol, corn syrup and IMO was relatively low to about 7% (v/v) after fermentation. The pH values of wines were almost unchanged in all treatments during fermentation and the total acidities of wines were decreased from 0.7% to lower than 0.3%. The colors of wines were changed to redder and darker during fermentation. In sensory evaluation xylitol added wine showed the best preference and kept xylitol unfermented in it.

The effect of blueberries on the quality characteristics of strawberry jam substituted with 50% sugar, glucose syrup 10% was investigated. Strawberry jams with 5, 10 and 20% blueberries in place of strawberry were prepared and evaluated for moisture content, reducing sugar, total acidity, pH, color, total sugar (°Brix), pectin content, anthocyanin content, DPPH radical scavenging activity, texture analysis and sensory characteristics. As the amount of blueberries increased, total acidity, °Brix , reducing sugar content and anthocyanin content of jams increased, while pH decreased, moisture content has changed little. The DPPH radical scavenging activities of the 80% methanol extract from jams were 75.33%, 85.75%, 91.23% and 92.73% at a concentration of 8 mg/mL. Radical scavenging activity increased with the added concentration of blueberries. The lightness decreased with addition of blueberries, but the redness and yellowness increased. The sensory scores for jams increased with the increase of blueberry content; however, strawberry jams with 10% blueberries showed the best scores.

This study was carried out to investigate the physicochemical characteristics, intake rate, and sensory properties of kimchi provided to elementary school foodservice in Seongnam. Average amount of kimchi intake at the elementary school foodservice for lower grade(1~3) students and higher grade(4~6) students was 7.15 g(23.83%) and 11.15 g(37.17%) respectively. The physicochemical properties of kimchi provided to the school foodservice in Seongnam were different between head cabbage kimchi(Pogi kimchi, H product) and head cabbage kimchi for children(C product). The head cabbage kimchi showed the pH 4.31~4.65(average pH 4.45), 6.86~8.38 $^{\circ}Brix$(average sugar content 7.74 $^{\circ}Brix$), and salinity 1.36~2.20%(average 1.73%) whereas the head cabbage kimchi for children indicated the pH 4.23~4.45(average pH 4.32), 7.68~8.48 $^{\circ}Brix$(average sugar content 8.18 $^{\circ}Brix$), and salinity 1.38~1.80%(average 1.65%). The result of the sensory evaluation of head cabbage kimchi and head cabbage kimchi for children indicated that there was significant difference by grades and gender. Higher graders tended to prefer less sweet, less sour and salty kimchi, and girls preferred sweet and sour kimchi more than boys. Therefore, it is required to develop kimchi for children considering sensory characteristics by grades and gender.

The aim of this study was to identify the chronological growth characteristics of Gaeryangmeoru grapes, by observation of the developmental process of the axillary bud, fruit quality, and anatomical structure of the pericarp. No necrosis of axillary buds was observed, irrespective of node position of the shoot, from shoot occurrence to leaf fall. Berry weight, cluster weight, soluble solid content and titratable acidity were analyzed to be 1.2 g, 128.8 g, $16.9^{\circ}Brix$, and 1.57%, respectively, at maturity. The sugar was composed of fructose and glucose, with a ratio of 1:1 (fructose: glucose) at maturity. Malic acid was predominant among the organic acids, and conformed to the changes of chronological titratable acidity. Sugar and organic acid content changed dramatically starting a week before veraison. The degraded ovules were observed before and after fertilization, and the pericarp was composed of one epidermis, and seven to ten hypodermis layers at maturity.

The study showed test results of Teriyaki sauce produced by apple concentrate instead of sugar in order to reduce the sugar content. We created four batches of soy sauce for testing. The Control batch was normal soy sauce. S1, S2, S3, and S4 were sauces made with different amounts of apple concentrate. The test results for the moisture contents, color value, sugar content, salinity, viscosity, pH and sensory evaluation (QDA, acceptance test) of all the types of sauce are as follows. The moisture contents of the Control was 50.80%, and for S4 was 35.14%. In chromaticity results, the L value of the Control was 10.85 which was the highest compared to samples which were in the range of 8.35~8.55. The value of a and b was highest in S4 and was lowest in Control. The sugar content was 53.53 $^{\circ}Brix$ in the Control, and 43.73 $^{\circ}Brix$ in S1. S1 showed 6.77% salinity, and S4 showed 5.37% salinity. The viscosity of S4 was highest at 60.33 cp, and Control showed the highest pH value of 4.82. The QDA of S4 showed the most intense brown color, which was 5.36. For gloss and soy sauce scent, no significant difference was found between the samples. Control showed a mild apple scent which was 1.45, and S1 showed the saltiest flavor which was 5.18. The sweet flavor for Control was 4.64, and S3 showed the strongest aftertaste from the test. No significant difference of appearance and acceptance was found between samples. S2 showed a scent of 5.09, which was the best. The savory taste of S3 was best, and was worst for S1. S3 showed the best overall interest which was 4.55. According to these results, S3 had the lowest sugar content, at 4%, and therefore had the highest possibility of being produced.

A three variables by three level factorial design and response surface methodology were used to determine optimum conditions for osmotic dehydration of banana. The moisture loss, solid gain, weight loss and reduction of moisture content after osmotic dehydration were increased as temperature, sugar concentration and immersion time increased. The effect of concentration was more significant than those of temperature and time on mass transfer. Color difference and titratable acidity were decreased by higher concentration. Sweetness was increased by increasing sugar concentration, temperature, immersion time during osmotic dehydration. The regression models showed a significant lack of fit (p>0.5) and were highly significant with satisfying values of R2. To optimize osmotic dehydration, based on surface response and contour plots, superimposing the individual contour plots for the response variables. the optimum conditions for this process wire 26$^{\circ}C$, 44 $^{\circ}$brix and 2 hrs for moisture content, sweetness and color difference are less than 72%, 24 obrix and 10 degree.
