This study was performed to produce quality vinegar using different types of nuruk, which is the most effective in making traditional brown rice vinegar. The vinegar was produced with 20% vinegar starter, and pears were added to reduce the nuruk aroma. Three different types of Nuruk that were prepared were rice, wheat, and a rice+wheat (1:1) combination. The total acidities of brown rice pear vinegar made from rice-nuruk, wheat-nunuk, and rice+wheat-nuruk were 8.1%, 7.5%, and 6.4%, respectively. Free sugars, including glucose, galactose, and fructose, were highly detected from all three vinegar samples. Acetic acid and lactic acid were the major organic acids in all three vinegar samples. For free amino acids, alanine, glutamic acid, and arginine were mainly detected in all three vinegar samples. Total phenolic compounds were higher in brown rice pear vinegar made of rice-nuruk than in that made of wheat-nuruk, whereas total flavonoids showed the opposite pattern. DPPH-radical scavenging activity was higher in brown rice pear vinegar made of wheat-nuruk than in that made of rice-nuruk.

Enzymatic activity in germinated cereal grains is important for the saccharification of starch materials. This study was conducted to investigate the amylolytic activities of germinating brown rice and black rice that have different amylose contents. Brown rice and black rice were steeped at room temperature for 24 h and germinated at 20 and $30^{\circ}C$ for 1, 2, and 3 days. ${\alpha}$- and ${\beta}$-Amylase activities in normal brown rice increased very slightly during the 3-day germination period, but the enzymatic activities were slightly higher in low-amylose (waxy type) brown rice. Diastatic power (DP), a measure of starch-saccharifying enzyme, was higher in the germinating brown rice with low amylose than in those with normal amylose content. ${\alpha}$- and ${\beta}$-Amylase activities in black rice increased gradually during germination, and DP of low-amylose black rice appeared to be higher than that of normal brown rice. Amylase activities in brown rice and black rice germinated at $30^{\circ}C$ were higher than those germinated at $20^{\circ}C$. Compared to brown rice, the overall amylolytic activity of germinated black rice was observed to be higher than that of brown rice.

This study was conducted to find out effects of abnormal kernels of 0 to 30% in brown rice on quality characteristics during milling using friction type test mill. The average hardness values of abnormal and normal brown rice kernels were 6.52 kg$_f$, 8.48 kg$_f$, respectively. According to the increase of abnormal kernels in brown rice, grain temperature, required electrical energy, the broken kernels ratio, and the weight of solid matter on the surface of milled rice were increased due to crush of the abnormal kernels during milling, which proves that abnormal kernels in brown rice should be removed before milling to improve milling characteristics.

This study was attempted to investigate the effect of partial replacement of rice flour with black or brown rice flour on texture properties and retrogradation of Julpyun(Korean rice cake). In sensory evaluation, the Julpyuns replaced black or brown rice flour 20% had high score in color, flavor and overall acceptability not including mouthfeel. As the result of the measurement with texture analyzer, hardness, gumminess and chewiness of Julpyuns tended to decrease in proportion to the amount of black and brown rice flour in the formula. These resets implied that the degree of retrogradation of black and brown rice Julpyuns might be low. Julpyuns replaced with black rice were a little lower than those of brown rice in the hardness. In the retrogradation speed by Avrami,s equation, the rate constants of Julpyun replaced black and brown rice flour was lower than that of milled rice, restating in delay in firming.

We evaluated the effects of dietary fiber extracted from brown rice on the quality of reduced-fat emulsion sausage. Reduced-fat emulsion sausage was supplemented with brown rice fiber at levels of 0, 1, 2, 3, and 6%. Adding different levels of brown rice fiber affected the proximate composition of the reduced-fat emulsion sausages (p<0.05), except for protein content. Adding different levels of brown rice fiber influenced the physicochemical properties of the reduced-fat emulsion sausages. The cooking yield, emulsion stability, textural properties, and viscosity of the reduced-fat emulsion sausages containing brown rice fiber improved with increases in added brown rice fiber (p<0.05). The reduced-fat emulsion sausages containing 1-3% brown rice fiber generated sensory evaluation scores similar to those of the high-fat sausage control. These results indicate that reduced-fat emulsion sausages with 1-3% added brown rice fiber had the most acceptable sensory properties and highest quality characteristics compared to the others.

Effects of pretreatment conditions on ${\gamma}-aminobutyric$ acid (GABA) contents of brown rice and germinated brown rice were investigated. As steeping time increased, GABA contents of brown rices increased gradually. The highest GABA content, 3.33mg/100g, was found in brown rice steeped at $40^{\circ}C$ for 8 hr. GABA content of brown rice decreased significantly at pH 8 (p<0.05), but changed slightly at pH of steeping solution ranging 4-7. Steeping of brown rices in glutamate solution increased GABA contents. Brown rice steeped in glutamate solution at 200-300 ppm showed GABA content between $4.09{\pm}0.48-4.11{\pm}0,47mg/100g$, which was much higher than that of untreated brown rice. Anaerobic treatment of brown rices using $N_2$ gas increased GABA contents, ranging from $4,70{\pm}0.49\;to\;4.92{\pm}0.83mg/100g$. Germinated brown rice steeped in glutamate solution under anaerobic condition had GABA content of $5.92{\pm}0.72mg/100g$, two-fold higher than that of untreated brown rice, $3.05{\pm}0.67mg/100g$. Optimum pretreatment condition established in this study could significantly increase GABA content in germinated brown rice.

In general cooked rice would be used as a major raw material for making Takju. In this case quality, taste and storage time of Takju were not fully satisfied. Fermentation conditions for Takiu mash were examined by using the germed brown rice in this study. In case of the germed brown rice on 2nd stage mash, alcohol was slowly generated in comparison with the cooked rice. Reducing sugar was slowly produced and the amount of reducing sugar was low. The sugar content was created at a uniform rate. The pH was shown to be higher in mash of the germed brown rice than that of the cooked rice. Acidity change showed a similar inclination to pH change. The degree of yeast growth on the mash of the germed brown rice was revealed to be slightly lower than that of the cooked rice. Temperature of mash was kept to be constant after 3 days from fermentation. Fusel oil produced from the mash of the germed brown rice was less gernerated in comparison with the cooked rice. Amount of amino acid in case of the germed brown rice was indicated to be higher. Takju made with the germed brown rice was shown to be 1.3 times in overall taste, 1.5 times in refreshing as compared with Takju made with the cooked rice. However there are no differences between them in flavor and color of Takju. In overall acceptance Takju made with the germed brown rice was shown to be 1.3 times as compared with Takju made with the cooked rice. In conclusion the germed brown rice was expected to be able to be better in Takju quality.

Storage ecosystems of rough rice, brown rice and polished rice were analyzed form Feb. 1987 to Nov. 1988 to investigate structures and ecological successions in the arthropod communities as well as changes in energy of the systems. The changes in temperature of stored rice showed high degree dependence on the temperature of storage room with time lag of about four weeks. Moisture content of rough rice, brown rice and polished rice during the period were in the range of 12.7$\pm$0.4, 13.1$\pm$0.4 and 13.5$\pm$0.3%, respectively. The arthropod communities in rough rice, brown rice and polished rice were qualitatively and quantitatively different. In rough rice, dominant species changed from Leptinotus reticulatus Endlein to Liposcelisentomophilus Endlein, while in brown rice from Pyralis farinalis L. to Sitophilus oryze (L.), unidentified parasitic wasps, Anisopteromalus calandrae Howard and Tribolium castaneum Herbst and finally to S. oryzae. In polished rice, the arthropod community showed an ecological succession similar to that in brown rice except for a transient dominance of two psocidspecies. Thearthropod community in rough rice was rather simple and unstable in comparison with those in brown rice and polished rice. The 1000 kernel weight of brown rice decreased slightly during the period when the arthropods were active (summer season), while that of rough rice and polished rice remained at the similar level. However, the ash content per unit volume of brown rice as well as rough rice and polished rice showed no increase during the period.
