The degradation of humic acid using $TiO_2$ coatings was studied, $TiO_2$ coatings were prepared by dip-coating method. Sol solutions for coating were prepared by mixing the gel, which can be produced by the reaction of $TiOCl_2$ and $NH_4OH$ solution, and hydrogen peroxide solution, and hydrolysis of titanium tetraisopropoxide (TTIP). It was shown from XRD that coatings from sol aged at $100^{\circ}C$ for 18h with titanium peroxo solution were crystallized to anatase in the range of temperatures of $25^{\circ}C$ to $500^{\circ}C$. In contrast, those coated from TTIP were crystallized to anatase at temperature above $400^{\circ}C$. So the sols originated from $TiCl_4$ can be applied for not only on the heat-resistance substrates but on the plastic substrates. Thickness and the quality of the films were dependent on the withdrawing speed, the concentration of sol, and the number of coating. The films showed various interference colors depending on the thickness of them. In the case that the films coated 2 times at withdrawing speed of 2.5cm per minute by 0.2M sol, the films had a transparent light blue color with thickness of around 50nm. It was known from the result of photo-degradation by $TiO_2$ coatings using humic acid that the removal efficiency of $COD_{cr}$ was over 85% after illumination of $UV/H_2O_2$ for 40min. and that of UV/VIS absorbable materials was over 95%.

The objective of this study was to investigate the components and nutritional quality of red-tanner crab (Chionoecetes japonicus) paste in order to explore possibility for food processing source such as surimi gel containing crab paste. Yield of crab paste was $30\%$ from whole body after crushing and dehydrating. Crude protein contents $(9.5\%)$ of crab paste was lower than that $(13.1\%)$ of crab muscle, but fat $(0.5\%)$ and ash contents $(8.0\%)$ of paste were higher than $0.2\%\;and\;1.3\%$ of crab muscle, respectively. Volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) content of the crab paste was lower than those of the edible parts. Total amino acid content (9,497mg/l00g) of paste was lower than that (12,980mg/100g) of muscle. Aspartic acid, glutamic acid, lysine and leucine were the predominant amino acids in the protein fraction. The calcium content (6,539mg/l00g) was higher than those of phosphorus (579mg/100g), and potassium (793mg/100g) while manganese and iron were present in trace amounts. Major fatty acids of total lipid were 16:0, 18:1n-9, 20:5n-3 and 22:6n-3, and no difference of composition between paste and muscle. Sensory evaluation showed that scores of color and flavor of $15\%$ substituted surimi gel increased significantly when compared to surimi gel without crab paste (p<0.05). From the above results, the addition of crab paste enhanced nutrition and functionality of surimi gel.

We produced Hwanggiju (added 0.5~2.0% of ground Astragali Radix compared to starch contents) and investigated the physicochemical characteristics, DPPH free radical scavenging activities, polyphenol contents, and sensory evaluation. For all treatments, the initial pH was 3.9~4.1 and gradually decreased for 6 days from the 1st mashing day, and then rapidly increased to 4.67. As the fermentation proceeded, total acid contents increased in most of the treatments, reduced temporarily after the 2nd mashing time because of the addition of starch material and water, and then slightly rose again. There were little changes in pH and total acid contents followed by adding ground Astragali Radix (AR) to the fermentation periods. Amino acidities of all treatments showed patterns of which consistently rose as the fermentation proceeded and slightly reduced followed by increasing the addition rate of ground AR to the mashes. Soluble solid and alcohol contents also increased continuously and there were few differences among the treatments followed by adding to the ground AR rate. In color, there was no differences in L value, but a and b value showed significant differences by adding ground AR rate. In DPPH free radical scavenging activities, the control (no AR added) showed 53.6% and when grinded AR added, there were improving effects of the activities (0.52~6.9%). In polyphenol contents, the control was 1.05 mg/mL and the ground AR added treatments increased slightly. In the sensory evaluation, the control received a relatively high score ($5.0{\pm}1.0$), and the treatments which added 0.5% ground AR during the 2nd mashing time were also well received ($4.5{\pm}1.3$).

This study was conducted to evaluate the quality and to inhibit the lipid oxidation of Yackwa with 0, 1, 2, or 3% mulberry concentrate added. We stored Yackwa at $60^{\circ}C$ for three weeks. After the three-week storage, the acid value of the Yackwa with mulberry concentrate was lower than that of the control Yackwa. The hydroperoxide value (22.39 meq/kg) of the Yackwa with 3% mulberry concentrate at two weeks of storage was 50% lower than that of the control Yackwa (47.03 meq/kg). Also, after three-week storage, the TBA value of the Yackwa with 3% mulberry concentrate was about two times lower than that of the control group. The L and b values in the Hunter color system of the Yackwa with mulberry concentrate decreased significantly as the amount of the mulberry added increased, whereas the a value increased. The antioxidant activity, such as the DPPH radical scavenging activity, significantly increased in the Yackwa with mulberry concentrate, unlike in the control. These results might have been caused by the mulberry concentrate, which contains an antioxidant. The ability of the mulberry concentrate to delay the rancidity of the Yackwa was due to its antioxidant activity.
