Chemical compositions of dried Auricularia polytricha mushroom were analyzed when the dried mushroom were soaked in distilled water at different soaking condition. Physicochemical properties of soaked mushroom were investigated. Compositions of chemical components were 12.6% crude protein, 2.1% crude fat, 6.7% crude fiber and 6.2% ash. The contents of Ca, K, Mg were higher than those of other minerals in the sample, but Mn and Ni were of little quantities. The major amino acids of the sample were found to be aspartic and glutamic acid. The increase in the soaking time and temperature increased the ratio of water uptake, amount of water soluble solid, browning and pH value in the soak water. Ribonucleotide contents of the sample after soaking decreased depending on soaking time and temperature.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Gastrodia elata Blume concentrate on quality characteristics of Gastrodia elata Blume jelly. The Gastrodia elata Blume jelly samples were divided into five groups by adding different Gastrodia elata Blume concentrates. The five groups were divided into GBJ-0, GBJ-5, GBJ-10, GBJ-15, and GBJ-20 (Gastrodia elata Blume jelly with 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20% Gastrodia elata Blume concentrate). The highest contents of crude protein and crude ash, and the brix in the GBJ-20 sample were 0.34 and 0.59%, and 22.28$^{\circ}$ Brix, respectively. The crude fiber and pH change (4.65-4.76) were not significantly observed in any of the GBJ samples. Turbidity, degree of brownness, and total phenolics increased with an increasing the amount of extract. A significant difference was observed between samples with and without the extracts in terms of hardness, springiness, gumminess, and chewiness, as well as K, Mg, Cu, Mn, and Zn contents. Hardness, gumminess, and chewiness increased in all GBJ samples with an increase the amount of extract added, whereas adhesiveness decreased. The highest tartaric acid content in the GBJ-0 sample and malic acid in the GBJ-20 jelly sample were 15.58 mg/100 g and 137.45 mg/100 g, respectively. The levels of Ca, K, and Mg increased with an increase in the amount of added extract. The highest score for overall acceptance (4.13) was in the GBJ-10 sample with 10% Gastrodia elata Blume concentrate.

The study was carried out to evaluate the storage and quality characteristics of Duteoptteok added with mugwort. The content of moisture and crude fiber in Duteoptteok significantly increased while that of the crude protein and crude ash decreased by adding 10, 20 and 30% of mugwort. As for the color value, the L, a, b value of Duteoptteok decreased as the amount of mugwort increased. Also, the L value decreased by the increase of the storage period. However, the a and b value didn't show any significant difference. For the texture characteristics, as the amount of mugwort increased, the hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness decreased; however, the adhesiveness increased. Moreover, the hardness, adhesiveness, gumminess and chewiness increased according to the changes of the storage period, while the springiness and cohesiveness decreased. According to higher amount of mugwort, the gelatinization degree increased while the retrogradation degree decreased. The viable cell count and yeast and mold count showed a decreasing tendency as the amount of mugwort increased while they increased by increasing the storage period. The results from this study suggests that the quality characteristics of Duteoptteok improved and storage period became longer by adding mugwort.

The study is a pioneering effort to determine the mineral, nutritional, and phytochemical composition and phenolic content and to determine the free radical scavenging activity of Gigantochloa levis (Blanco) Merr, a native bamboo species (locally known as "bolo") in the Philippines. Proximate analysis showed that air-dried G. levis leaves contain 15.8% ash, 22.6% crude protein, 1.2% crude fat, 29.3% crude fiber, and 19.7% total sugar. Phytochemical tests indicated the presence of diterpenes, triterpenes, saponins, phenols, tannins, and flavonoids in both the ethanolic and aqueous leaf extracts, while phytosterols were only detected in the ethanolic extract. Folin-Ciocalteu assay determined the total phenolic content in gallic acid equivalents (GAE) to be $85.86{\pm}3.71$ and $32.32{\pm}1.01mg\;GAE/100g$ dried sample for the ethanolic and aqueous extracts, respectively. The total phenolic content in quercetin equivalents (QE) was $74.44{\pm}3.11$ and $29.43{\pm}0.85mg\;QE/100g$ dried sample for the ethanolic and aqueous extracts, respectively. The radical scavenging activity of the different solvent fractions containing varying concentrations of the extract was determined using the 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay. The ethyl acetate and 1-butanol fractions were found to have the highest radical scavenging activity. Mineral analysis via Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectrometry (EDS) of the ash of G. levis leaves showed that Si is the major component, followed by K and Mg. These results point to the potential of G. levis leaves as a source of minerals and bioactive compounds with medicinal value.

The roasting condition and organoleptic characteristics in Cassia tora tea were investigated. Intact Cassia tora seeds were composed of water 11.6%, crude protein 13.1%, crude fat 4.4%, crude fiber 13.8%, N-free extract 47.2% and ash 4.9%. Organoleptic qualities in Cassia tora tea were sweetness, astringency, tartness, bitterness, roasted coffee like, roasted barley like and burnt smell. Organoleptic qualities were investigated by descriptive analysis method, too. Overall acceptability was increased by roasting but it was low because of formation of bitterness and burnt smell at excessive roasting conditions. Sweetness was the most important factor in organoleptic quality of Cassia tora seeds and the optimum condition for the best quality was $210^{\circ}C$, 20 minutes.

This study investigated the effects of Goami 2 on the properties of Garaetteok. The moisture, crude protein, crude lipid and crude ash contents of the rice were 16.02, 5.40, 1.87 and 0.77%, respectively. The amylose contents (32.16%) and total dietary fiber contents (9.03%) were the highest in Goami 2. The water binding capacity of Goami 2 (167.84%) was higher than general rice flour. Using a rapid visco analyzer (RVA), the initial pasting temperature of Goami 2 was found to be the highest; also, the peak viscosities of Goami 2 were higher than general rice powder. To assess the effect of Goami 2 on the quality characteristics of Garaetteok, the rice-cake was made by adding various amounts of Goami 2 (0, 10, 20, 30, and 40% w/w) to rice. It was observed that higher the amount of added Goami 2, lower were the grades. In terms of the color values of Goami 2 addition, the L-values of Garaetteok were lower with increasing amount of Goami 2; addition of 40% Goami 2 had the lowest value. The textural properties (hardness) also showed that tteok containing the greater amounts of Goami 2 were considerably harder compared with the control. Sensory preference tests revealed that addition of less Goami 2 had the highest scores for appearance, color and overall acceptability, and the Goami 2 added was lower than control. Therefore, as compared to others cultivars, rice flour proved the most acceptable for the preparation of Garaetteok with cultivar rice.

Objective: This experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of insoluble cellulose supplementation to diets on the growth performance, intestinal morphology, the incidence of diarrhea, nutrients digestibility, and inflammatory responses in altering environmental conditions of animals housing. Methods: A total of 108 male pigs (Duroc×[Yorkshire×Landrace]) were randomly allocated to one of three dietary treatments (cellulose 0%, 1%, 2%) and two environmental conditions (good sanitary condition vs. poor sanitary condition) to give 6 replicate pens per treatment with three pigs per each pen at 14 days post-weaning. Results: Pigs were in good sanitary condition had higher average daily gain (p<0.01) and improved feed efficiency (p<0.05) from day 1 to 14 after weaning compared to their counterparts. The interactions were found between environmental conditions and dietary treatments (day 7: crypt depth [p<0.01], villous height to crypt depth [p<0.001]; day 14: crypt depth [p<0.001], villous to crypt ratio [p<0.01]) in ileum morphology. Crypt depth was decreased (p<0.05), and villous to crypt ratio was increased (p<0.05) only in poor sanitary conditions. Pigs exposed to the good sanitary condition had higher (p<0.05) apparent ileal digestibility (day 7, gross energy; day 14, dry matter), apparent total tract digestibility (day 14, dry matter and crude protein) compared to pigs housed in the poor sanitary condition. Meanwhile, pigs fed a diet supplemented with 2% cellulose had decreased (p<0.05) apparent ileal digestibility (day 7, dry matter; day 14, crude protein), apparent total tract digestibility (day 7, dry matter; day 14, crude protein, gross energy) compared to pigs fed a diet supplemented with 0% or 1% cellulose. Conclusion: Our results indicated that a diet supplemented with 1% cellulose increased villous to crypt ratio, however feeding a diet containing cellulose (1% or 2%) impaired nutrient digestibility for 14 day after weaning in both good sanitary and poor sanitary conditions.
