In this study, we investigated coagulants such as polyaluminum chloride (PACl) and ferric chloride ($FeCl_3$) and the combination of a coagulant and powdered activated carbon (PAC) for the removal of dissolved organic matter (DOM) from fish processing effluent to reduce membrane fouling in microfiltration. The efficiency of each pretreatment was investigated through analyses of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and ultraviolet absorbance at 254 nm ($UVA_{254}$). Membrane flux and silt density index (SDI) analyses were performed to evaluate membrane fouling; molecular weight distributions (MWD) and fluorescence excitation-emission matrix (FEEM) spectroscopy were analyzed to assess DOM characteristics. The results demonstrated that $FeCl_3$ exhibited higher DOC and $UVA_{254}$ removals than PACl for food processing effluent and a combination of $FeCl_3$ and PAC provided comparatively better results than simple $FeCl_3$ coagulation for the removal of DOM from fish processing effluent. This study suggests that membrane fouling could be minimized by proper pretreatment of food processing effluent using a combination of coagulation ($FeCl_3$) and adsorption (PAC). Analyses of MWD and FEEM revealed that the combination of $FeCl_3$ and PAC was more efficient at removing hydrophobic and small-sized DOM.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the antioxidant activity and β-glucan content of extracts extracted by varying the temperature at 30, 55 and 80℃ after hot air drying or freeze drying of Pleurotus ostreatus and Pleurotus eryngii. For the analysis antioxidant activity of each mushroom, β-glucan, total phenol, flavonoid contents, and DPPH·ABTS⁺·Nitrite assay were measured. Also, the β-glucan content, total flavonoid content and ABTS⁺ scavenging activity increased with freeze drying rather than hot air drying, and increased with increasing extraction temperature in both mushrooms. However, the total phenol and nitrite scavenging activity increased with hot air drying rather than freeze drying, and decreased with increasing temperature in both mushrooms. DPPH scavenging activity was not significant in both mushrooms, but decreased with increasing extraction temperature. Pearson's correlations between total flavonoid content and antioxidant activities were r=0.719~0.753 (p<0.01). As a result, the β-glucan content, total flavonoid content, and ABTS radical cation scavenging activity were highest during freeze drying and extraction at 80℃. And the highest total phenol content, DPPH radical scavenging activity and nitrite scavenging activity were obtained during hot air drying and extraction at 30℃.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate changes in the microbiological safety of food ingredients supplied to elementary school food services during processing. For this purpose, fifteen food ingredients and twelve factories were chosen in the provinces of Daegu and Gyeongbuk. Total plate counts and coliform counts were reduced in the ingredients after washing, but they increased after packing. After packing, the following levels of total plate counts and coliforms were detected, respectively: peeled bellflower roots ($1.2{\sim}3.6{\times}10^6$, $3.1{\sim}4.6{\times}10^5$ CFU/g), blanched vegetables ($5.6{\times}10^3{\sim}2.0{\times}10^5$, <5~$1.5{\times}10^4$ CFU/g), soybean curd (<5~$5.4{\times}10^3$, <5~$2.2{\times}10^3$ CFU/g), buckwheat starch jelly (<5, <5 CFU/g), soybean sprouts ($1.2{\times}10^6{\sim}1.8{\times}10^7$, $2.4{\times}10^5{\sim}4.3{\times}10^6$ CFU/g), mackerel ($2.2{\times}10^2$, $1.3{\times}10^2$ CFU/g), chicken ($3.8{\times}10^4$, $6.7{\times}10^2$ CFU/g), pork ($6.7{\times}10^2$, <5 CFU/g), and beef ($9.4{\times}10^2{\sim}5.2{\times}10^4$, <5~$2.1{\times}10^3$ CFU/g). Generally, the microbiological safety of the food ingredients was better during the processing stage than during the other stages, with the exception of packing. Staphylococcus aureus, E. coli, and Bacillus cereus were detected in small amounts on the peeled bellflower roots, chicken, and pork, respectively. These results indicate that peeled bellflower roots, chicken, and pork need to be sanitized at the washing stage and cross contamination must be prevented at the packing stage.

Irradiation of food is not only used for sanitation purposes but can be used for processing techniques to reduce or eliminate toxic or undesirable compounds on food. Irradiation wag effective to reduce the allergenicity of food by modification of the structure of proteins causing allergy reactions. Volatile N-nitrosmaine was reduced or eliminated by irradiation in the model system study and the breakdown products by irradiation did not recombine under human stomach conditions (pH 2,3, and 4,37$^{\circ}C$). The possibility of residual chlorophyll b reduction by irradiation was also found, and the model study indicated that irradiation be used to destroy chlorophyll b, resulting in protection from photooxidation in oil without acceleration of lipid oxidation during irradiation. In this paper, several on-going research projects for the application of food irradiation as a new processing technique are introduced, including reduction of food allergens, breakdown of volatile N-nitrosamine and residual chlorophyll b.

The purpose of this study was to gather useful information for establishing an efficient marketing direction by investigating the performance (satisfaction) and importance for the quality, popularization and merchandising of local foods in the Ulsan area. A questionnaire was answered by 500 citizens over 16 years old living in the Ulsan area. The study data were analyzed by Importance-Performance Analysis method(IPA), frequency analysis, T-test, and ANOVA. The analysis of the quality attributes of local foods for tourist merchandising showed that importance was generally higher than performance. 'Sanitation', 'taste', 'freshness', 'healthfulness', 'nutrition' and 'service' were revealed to be significant ones in the quality attributes. The respondents thought that a lot of emphasis needs to be placed on 'generalizing and globalizing local cuisine', 'passing down traditional recipes','hosting various cultural events related with traditional foods', and 'increasing the number of restaurants specializing in local traditional foods'.

Allyl isothiocyanate (AI), a volatile compound of mustard, has excellent antimicrobial effects, but its volatility hinders its wide usage as an ingredient of food products. Microencapsulation technique, therefore, was applied for delaying the release time of AI. For delaying the release time of AI, the mustard powder, which contained AI, was microencapsulated with 5% modified starch by using fluidized bed processing. The efficiency of the controlled release of AI at various pH was analyzed by the head space (HS) analysis and solid phase microextraction (SPME) method using gas chromatography (GC). Also, modified starch encapsulated powder was added into kimchi for applying in food industry. As the result, the release time of AI was delayed by microencapsulation with modified starch and the higher pH could be the faster release of AI. Also, the period until the pH values and total acidity of kimchi reached up to 4.5 and 0.6%, which give its malsour taste, was extended by microencapsulation. These results showed that modified starch encapsulated powder could prolong the preservation in food system.

To investigate hydrostatic pressure (HP) effect on myofibrillar protein (Mf) extracted from bovine Semitendinosus muscle, Ca- and Mg-ATPase activities to evaluate denaturation of myosin and actin, and soluble protein contents were observed. In Mf treated with 100 MPa for 5 min was not observed denaturation of myosin and actin. In Mf treated with 200 MPa for 5 min, denaturation of myosin and actin were observed but inactivation rate was low (0.0136 $min^{-1}$). Inactivation rate of myosin and actin was dramatically increased above 300 MPa treatment. However denaturation of myosin and actin was not that critical with duration time. By increasing pressure size, the amount of myosin and actin in soluble protein eluted in 20 mM potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) containing 0.6 M NaCl were decreased. SDS-PAGE of soluble protein released from Mf suspension in 0.1 M NaCl buffer (pH 7.0) showed that low molecular weight proteins (15${\sim}$36 KDa) were released by HP treatment above 200 MPa. From the results, denaturation of myosin and actin, and release of light molecule proteins of Mf were observed by HP treatment over 200 MPa.

A survey was conducted to investigate the attitudes of public officials related to food hygiene toward food safety. The official groups were divided into four sub-groups based on their area, agency, gender and age. Response of each group to the survey was statistically analysed. The survey's results showed that most of them (87.0%) were satisfied with a domestic level of food hygiene. But, some of then (29.8%) considered unsatisfactoryly on safety of the food they eat. Their response to food safety did not statistically significant between each group of area, agency and age but, in case of gender, female group showed stastically more negative attitude to food safety than male one (P<0.05). All groups chose residues of chemical substances such as pesticides and food additives as the most potential food risk factor followed by foodborne pathogens, heavy metals and animal drug residues. The results are not consistent with the scientific judgement. Therefore, more education and information were needed fro these groups. They pointed out food manufacturer as a responsible group for poor food hygiene (48.7%). In addition, food manufacture and processing were selected as main business types with the lowest level in the food hygiene but official, working in the area of the central government and Seoul metropolitan city, pointed out food services establishments as the poorest hygiene one (P<0.01). This results suggested that education and information to let mind of responded groups change, working in this part, and governmental financial support are needed to improve hygiene level of food manufacture and processing (70.3%). They also chose HACCP as the most effective way for improving the level of food hygiene followed by Recall, PL (Product Liability), monitoring, labeling and increasing of number of company with good manufacture and processing (GMP).
