Dasik is a type of Korean traditional confectionery that is kneaded with various grains, nuts or herb flour and honey and then pressed with a decorative press. Soybeans are a rich in protein, lipids, dietary fiber, minerals and fat soluble vitamins. Spirulina is a functional food that contains protein, lipids, carbohydrates, minerals, vitamins, dietary fiber and pigments. In this study, soybean Dasik containing spirulina was developed in an attempt to provide an easy method of incorporating spirulina into daily dietary life. In addition, we evaluated the quality characteristics of the soybean Dasik with spirulina that was developed here. Specifically, 0, 10, 20 and 30% spirulina was added to the soybean powder that was used to prepare soybean Dasik. Soybean Dasik that contained 30% spirulina had a higher moisture content and lower hardness when compared to other groups. In addition, the L, a and b value decreased as the level of spirulina increased. Furthermore, the antioxidant activity of soybean Dasik increased according to the increase in the addition of spirulina. Specifically, the $IC_{50}$ values of the DPPH and hydroxyl radical scavenging activity of the control group were 76.6 mg/mL and 100.7 mg/mL, respectively, whereas these values were 26.3 mg/mL and 32.9 mg/mL, respectively, in Soybean Dasik that contained 30% spirulina. When a sensory evaluation was conducted, the overall preference decreased as the level of added spirulina increased. When the buying intension was evaluated, the control group had the highest score (7.8), followed by that of the Dasik that contained 20% spirulina (7.2) The buying intention was lowest for the Dasik that contained 30% spirulina. In conclusion, Soybean Dasik that contained up to 20% spirulina would be maketable.

The principal objective of this study was to evaluate the quality characteristics of pickled radishes (RP) containing gardenia fruits (RPG), beet (RPB), and spinach (RPS) juice. We have conducted the moisture, salinity, sweetness, pH, titable acidity, Hunter's color values, and mechanical characteristics with a sensory evaluation by elementary, middle, high and university students on the colored radish pickles. The moisture contents of RP, RPG, RPB and RPS are not significantly different. The salinity and pH of RP were significantly higher than that of RPG, RPB, RPS (p<0.05; p<0.01). The sugar contents of RPS are significantly higher than the of RP, RPG and RPB (p<0.001). The titrable acidity of RPB and RPS is significantly higher than that of the RP and RPG (p<0.001). The lightness (L) of RP, the redness (a) of RPB and the yellowness (b) of RPS are the highest in sample group. For changes in texture profile analysis, the hardness level of RPB is higher than that of RP, RPG and RPS (p<0.01), but the chewiness of RPG is higher than those of RP, RPB and RPS (p<0.001). In the sensory evaluation, RPB scores the highest in color, taste, and overall acceptability, whereas RPS scores the lowest in color and overall acceptability. Based on the above results, we expect that radish pickles with beet juice have good characteristics and acceptances within the school food services.

This study was conducted to examine the sensory characteristics and the contents of proximate composition and the free sugars of the Demi-glace with varying quantity of Omija extracts added. First, the qualities of Demi-glace sauces with varying quantity of Omija extracts added are as follows: (1) Proximate composition: The moisture content was 66.10～73.50%, and crude ash content was 1.59～1.89%. As the Omija extracts added increased, moisture content increased, whereas crude ash content decreased. The crude protein content was 6.12～7.95%. Among them, the one with the 2% Omija added showed the highest level of the crude protein. (2) Free sugars contents: In terms of total sugar contents, the control showed 1.32% and Omija sauces showed 1.44～1.55%. Major free sugars analyzed in the order of fructose, oligosaccharide, glucose and sucrose. Second, the results of sensory evaluation of Demi-glace sauces with the different levels of Omija added are as follows: (1) The preference of Demi-glace sauces according to occupation: Students and Cooks liked the one with the 2% Omija added in terms of color, flavor, taste, texture and overall acceptability. Cooks showed higher preference than students. (2) The preference of 5 tastes: It was found that Demi-glace sauce with the 2% Omija added was the best. The one with the 2% Omija added was suitable in terms of sweet taste and bitter taste and the one with the 3% Omija added was desirable for hot taste and saline taste. In terms of sour taste, the one with 1% Omija added was regarded as the most desirable one. (3) The preference for authentic tastes for Demi-glace sauce: In terms of simple taste, females showed higher preference than males. Demi-glace sauce with the 2% Omija added was found to be the best for savory taste, flavor enhancer taste, simple taste, after taste and overall acceptability. The one with the 1 % Omija added was regarded as the best for soft taste.

In this study, muffins were made with the addition of 0%, 3%, 6% and 9% of Chungkukjang powder and, the quality characteristics, such as volume, height, appearance, chromaticity and moisture contents, were measured using SEM (Scanning Electronic Microscope) measurement, texture tests and sensory tests. In the regards to volume, as the added amount of added Chungkukjang increased, the volume also increased. There was no significant difference in the height and moisture content of the muffins at the different Chungkukjang powder concentrations. Using SEM, it was shown that as the amount of added Chungkukjang increased, the gluten content decreased, which in turn caused the formation of thick cell membranes and rough pores and reduced gluten composition capacity. Luminosity L value in Chungkukjang muffin decreased as the amount of added Chungkukjang powder increased. There was significant difference in the red chromaticity a value and yellow chromaticity b value among the samples (p<0.05). The results of the texture test showed that the hardness of the Chungkukjang muffin decreased as the amount of added Chungkukjang increased. In addition, as the amount of added Chungkukjang increased, the adhesiveness decreased. There was no significant difference in springing, chewiness and gumminess among the samples. There was a significant difference in the cohesiveness among all other samples in cohesiveness (p<0.05). The results of the sensory test showed that the wave form of the Chungkukjang muffin decreased as the amount of added Chungkukjang increased. The pore of the muffin increased as the amount of added Chungkukjang increased. The color quality of the muffin decreased as the amount of added Chungkukjang increased. In terms of overall acceptability, 6% Chungkukjang was shown to result in the highest preference level.

People have become more interested in fiber intake due to the rise of noncommunicable diseases such as hyperlipemia and abdominal obesity. This study was carried out to develop dacquoise incorporating different amounts of rice bran dietary fiber (5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%). Dacquoise characteristics such as viscosity, specific volume, moisture content, color, and texture were measured. Consumer acceptance and check-all-that-apply on characteristics of dacquoise with rice bran dietary fiber were observed. Increasing amounts of rice bran dietary fiber resulted in increasing viscosity of batter as well as higher specific volume, lightness, and hardness of finished product. On the contrary, yellowness and redness of dacquoise increased as the amount of rice bran dietary fiber increased. While there was no effect of rice bran dietary fiber on moisture content (range of 26.53~25.35%). According to the consumer acceptance test, dacquoise with 5% of rice bran dietary fiber showed the highest liking score in color and overall acceptance (5.9 and 5, respectively). The findings from the principle component analysis of principle component (PC) 1 (71.04% explanation) showed that as rice bran dietary fiber increased, texture of the product got drier, and consumers described the product with 20% rice bran dietary fiber as cotton mouth and 5% rice bran dietary fiber as sticky. PC2 (16.54% explanation) demonstrated 5% and 10% rice bran dietary fiber, and dacquoise had nutty and soybean notes while 15% and 20% rice bran dietary fiber dacquoise had flour, bitter, and salty flavors. Based on these results, the optimum addition level of rice bran dietary fiber for dacquoise is 5%.

Cacao bean husk (Theobroma cacao L.) contains a high level of dietary fiber and therefore can be used as raw material in food processing. The objective of the present study was to measure the physicochemical properties and sensory traits of emulsion-type pork sausages with various levels of cacao bean husk powder (0.25%, 0.5%, 0.75%, 1%, and 2%). The moisture content in cooked sausages increased as the level of cacao bean husk power increased, whereas the protein content decreased (p<0.05). With respect to color, as the level of cacao bean husk power increased, there was a decrease in lightness and yellowness, but there was a considerable increase in redness (p<0.05). Cacao bean husk powder exhibited a positive effect on emulsion stability and apparent viscosity. In the sensory evaluation, increased level of cacao bean husk increased flavor acceptability; the 0.75% and 1% treatment groups showed significantly high overall acceptability (p<0.05). The thiobarbituric acid reactive species content of cooked sausages indicated that with the addition of cacao bean husk powder significantly inhibited lipid oxidation in the sausages during refrigerated storage (p<0.05). Overall, the findings of the present study suggest that adding 0.75% and 1% cacao bean husk powder as a natural ingredient in sausages can help develop meat products with excellent qualities.

While attempting to develop low salt, low fat and high fibre chicken nuggets, the effect of partial (40%) common salt substitution and incorporation of chickpea hull flour (CHF) at three different levels viz., 5, 7.5 and 10% (Treatments) in pre-standardized low fat chicken nuggets (Control) were observed. Common salt replacement with salt substitute blend led to a significant decrease in pH, emulsion stability, moisture, ash, hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness values while incorporation of CHF in low salt, low fat products resulted in decreased emulsion stability, cooking yield, moisture, protein, ash, color values, however dietary fibre and textural properties were increased (p<0.01). Lipid profile revealed a decrease in total cholesterol and glycolipid contents with the incorporation of CHF (p<0.01). All the sensory attributes except appearance and flavor, remained unaffected with salt replacement, while addition of CHF resulted in lower sensory scores (p<0.01). Among low salt, low fat chicken nuggets with CHF, incorporation CHF at 5% level was found optimum having sensory ratings close to very good. Thus most acceptable low salt, low fat and high fibre chicken nuggets could be developed by a salt replacement blend and addition of 5% CHF.

A total of 144 ((Duroc${\times}$Yorkshire)${\times}$Landrace)) pigs with an average initial BW of $28.85{\pm}0.63$ kg were used in this 6-wk growth trial. Pigs were randomly allotted to 1 of 4 treatments in a completely random block design. Each dietary treatment consisted of 9 replicate pens, with 4 pigs per replicate. Dietary treatments included: i) NC (basal diet), ii) PC (NC+apramycin 0.5 g/kg), iii) BPT1 (NC+bacteriophage 0.25 g/kg) and iv) BPT2 (NC+bacteriophage 0.5 g/kg). The inclusion of antibiotics and bacteriophages did not affect the (p>0.05) ADG, ADFI and G:F compared with the basal diet. Dietary antibiotics and bacteriophages supplementation led to a higher (p<0.05) DM digestibility than the NC treatment. Pigs fed the bacteriophage supplemented diet increased (p<0.05) the N digestibility compared with those fed NC treatment. Supplementation of antibiotics led to a higher (p<0.05) energy digestibility than the NC treatment. No difference (p>0.05) was observed in the RBC, WBC, lymphocyte concentration and fecal moisture among treatments. Pigs fed PC and BPT2 treatments reduced (p<0.05) the E. coli concentration compared with those fed NC treatment. The inclusion of BPT2 treatment led to a higher (p<0.05) lactobacillus concentration compared with NC and PC treatment. Dietary antibiotic and bacteriophage supplementation reduced (p<0.05) the Salmonella concentration compared with NC treatment. In conclusion, our study suggested that bacteriophage at the level of 0.5 g/kg could be used as an antibiotics alternative for growing pigs.

This study was performed to investigate the effect of dietary processed sulfur supplementation on water-holding capacity, color, and lipid profiles of pork according to the level of dietary processed sulfur (0%, CON; 0.3%, S). The pigs were slaughtered at an average final weight of 120 kg, and the longissimus dorsi muscles were collected from the carcasses. As results, pork processed with sulfur had significantly higher moisture and ash contents compared to those of CON but lower crude fat, pH, expressible drip, lower redness and yellowness, and greater lightness. Pork processed with sulfur showed significantly lower total lipid content, triglycerides, and atherosclerosis index but significantly higher high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Feeding processed sulfur significantly lowered myristic acid, heptadecanoic acid, and stearic acid contents, whereas monounsaturated fatty acids and oleic acids were significantly higher compared to those in the CON. Higher amounts of polyunsaturated fatty acids and n-6 fatty acids were observed in the pork processed with sulfur than that of the CON. Therefore, supplementing pigs with dietary sulfur improved nutrient and meat quality.

A 12 week growth study was carried out to investigate the supplemental effects of dietary garlic powder (GP) on growth, feed utilization and whole body composition changes of fingerling sterlet sturgeon Acipenser ruthenus (averaging weight, 5.5 g). Following a 24-h fasting, 540 fish were randomly distributed to each of 18 tanks (30 fish/tank) under a semi-recirculation freshwater system. The GP of 0.5% (GP0.5), 1% (GP1), 1.5% (GP1.5), 2% (GP2) and 3% (GP3) was added to the control diet (GP0) containing 43% protein and 16% lipid. After the feeding trial, weight gain (WG) of fish fed GP1.5, GP2 and GP3 were significantly higher (p<0.05) than those of fish fed GP0, GP0.5 and GP1. Feed efficiency and specific growth rate (SGR) showed a similar trend to WG. Protein efficiency ratio of fish fed GP1.5, GP2, and GP3 were significantly higher (p<0.05) than those of fish groups fed the other diets. A significant difference (p<0.05) was found in whole body composition (moisture, crude protein, crude lipid, ash, and fiber) of fish at the end of the experiment. Significantly higher (p<0.05) protein and lipid retention efficiencies (PRE and LRE) were also found in GP1.5, GP2, and GP3 groups. Broken-line regression model analysis and second order polynomial regression model analysis relation on the basis of SGR and WG indicated that the dietary optimal GP level could be greater than 1.77% and 1.79%, but less than 2.95% and 3.18% in fingerling sterlet sturgeon. The present study suggested that dietary GP for fingerling sterlet sturgeon could positively affect growth performance and protein retention.
