A total of 40 pigs were used to investigate the feeding effects of supplementary wild grape wine by-product on pork quality of American Berkshire breed in the swine farm of Hamyang area. Treatments were C that was basal diet, and T that was treated by dietary wild grape wine by-product(5%) were added in feed. About 70 kg pigs were bred a period of 88 days, and slaughtered. The pork quality characteristic were measured in pork loin. In chemical composition, moisture and crude fat were not significantly different between C and T, but T were lower(p<0.05) than C. There were no difference in crude protein and crude ash(p<0.05). pH and water holding capacity(WHC) were not significantly different between C and T, whereas the cholesterol and fat shear force of T were lower(p<0.05) than C. There were no different in the meat color, but the Hunter’s L* and W value of T were higher(p<0.05) than C. Oleic acid(C18:1), linoleic acid(C18:2, n-6), arachidonic acid(C20:4, n-6), Essential fatty acid(EFA), and EFA/unsaturated fatty acid were significantly(p<0.05) different between C and T, in the fatty acid compositions of loins. Also, the total amino acid composition of pork were not significantly different between C and T, but essential fatty acid of T was significantly higher(p<0.05) than that of C. This observation suggests that wild grape wine by-product supplements may have some beneficial effects on improving backfat color, shear force, cholesterol and essential fatty acid content of pork loin.

Aged garlic has been reported to possess beneficial pharmacological activities, including anti-stress and anti-fatigue properties, and to exert protective effects on the cardiovascular system and liver. Pine needles are widely used in folk medicine and as food additives owing to their pharmacological properties such as anti-aging and anti-inflammatory effects. It has long been known that combining certain phytochemicals with other phenols or organic acids can produce synergistic effects. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to develop an optimal formula of aged garlic with added pine needle powder for improved antioxidant activity using the statistical technique of response surface methodology. The antioxidant activities of aged garlic mixed with pine needle powder were confirmed by measuring oxygen radical absorbance capacity and total polyphenol content. An optimized antioxidant formula was identified that contained 5.08 g aged garlic and 1.97 g pine needle powder. The antioxidant activities of the mixture prepared using this optimal formula were significantly higher than the predicted values according to an additive model. Hence, this study confirms that the addition of pine needle powder to aged garlic can improve its antioxidant activity. This study demonstrated an optimal mixing ratio to produce an aged garlic product with improved functionality through the addition of pine needle powder that could be successfully employed by the food industry to prepare functional foods.

This study was performed to determine the optimum ratio of ingredients in the Sulgidduk with barley(Hordeum vulgare L.) sprout powder. A mathematical analytical tool was employed for optimization of the typical ingredients. The canonical form and trace plot showed the affect of each ingredient in the mixture against the final product. Mixture design showed 14 experimental points, including 4 replicates for three independent variables. The three independent variables selected for the experiment were: water($15{\sim}22%$), barley sprout powder($1{\sim}4%$), and sugar($12{\sim}19%$). The optimum responses variables such as color values(L, a, and b), instrumental texture parameters(hardness, gumminess, and chewiness), and sensory characteristics(appearance, color, smell, taste, softness, moistness, and overall acceptability) were evaluated. The Hunter colorimetric L- and a-values of the Sulgidduk decreased with an increasing amount of barley sprout powder. As more barley sprout powder was added, a higher b-value resulted. Textural hardness, gumminess, and chewiness were lowered by the addition of barley sprout powder. The optimum formulation obtained by both numerical and graphical methods showed similar results. The representative optimal ingredient ratio commonly obtained by both methods were: 18.2% water, 2.0% barley sprout powder, and 14.8% sugar.

Physicochemical properties of bread as influenced by the addition of sweet pumpkin powder (SPP) were investigated. Freeze-dried sweet pumpkin was ground, sieved through a laboratory sieve and a fraction with particles less than $250\;{\mu}m$ was used. Amount of SPP added to the bread was found to affect the bread quality significantly (p<0.05). Loaf volume and weight of the control were significantly higher than others (p<0.05) and decreased significantly (p<0.05) with the addition of SPP. In other words, the enrichment of product with SPP decreased bread volume and weight without significant changes in the moisture content. There were distinctive color changes with the addition of the powder: L- and a-values were reduced but b-value was significantly increased (p<0.05). The hardness, springiness, and gumminess of bread were found to increase with the addition of the powder. Consumer test indicated that bread contained with 3% SPP had the highest overall acceptability score while 1 or 5% addition produced an acceptable quality for the bread.

Six-hundred bacterial strains from human milk and milk from Sahiwal cows, Holstein Friesian cows, and buffaloes were screened for their ability to suppress phytopathogenic fungi under in vitro conditions. A consortium of 3 strains, viz., Bacillus lentimorbus B-30486 (B-30486), B. subtilis B-30487 (B-30487), and B. lentimorbus B-30488 (B-30488), isolated from Sahiwal cow milk resulted in better biological control and plant-growth promotion than single-strain treatments. For commercial-scale production of a bioinoculant, the solid-state fermentation of sugarcane agro-industrial residues, i.e., molasses, press mud, and spent wash, using the consortium of B-30486, B-30487, and B-30488, resulted in a value-added product, useful for enhancing plant growth. The application of the consortium to sugarcane fields infested with Fusarium moniliforme and Colletotrichum falcatum resulted in a reduction of mortality and significantly higher (P=0.05) plant height, number of tillers, and cane girth when compared with the control. Furthermore, under field conditions, the treatment of sugarcane with the consortium resulted in significantly (P=0.05) greater plant growth compared with nonbacterized plants. Accordingly, this is the first report on the effective use of bacteria isolated from milk for biological control and enhancing plant growth under field conditions. Furthormore, a solid-state fermentation technology was developed that facilitates the economic utilization of agro-industrial residues for environmental conservation and improving plant and soil health.

This study was performed to determine physicochemical and sensory quality of low-fat pork loaf containing silkworm powder and vegetable worm (Paecilomyces japonica). Total 2% of fat replacer (soy protein isolate:maltodextrin:$\kappa$-carrageenan:water=1:0.5:0.5:10, w/v) was added. The loaf was separated into CTL (control), T1 (0.2% silkworm powder), T2 (0.2% vegetable worm), T3 (0.4% silkworm powder), T4 (0.4% vegetable worm), T5 (0.1% silkworm powder+0.1% vegetable worm), and T6 (0.2% silkworm powder+0.2% vegetable worm). Pork loaf of T3 showed the highest pH value and cooking loss of pork loaves containing silkworm and vegetable worm was higher than control at day 5. 2-Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances of T2 and T5 showed significantly lower values than control and those additives may reduce lipid oxidation of meat. Overall acceptability was not adversely influenced by silkworm powder and vegetable worm at day 0 and 5. These results indicated that those silkworm powder and vegetable worm could be utilized for pork product industry.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of saltwort on the quality characteristics of tofu. In addition, we examined the potential for commercialization of tofu containing saltwort. For this study, saltwort was added to tofu at 0%, 4%, 8%, 12%, 16% and 20% and quality and sensory tests were administered. Analyzing the mineral contents of saltwort juice, K was present in the greatest amount, followed by Mg, P, Ca, and F (in decreasing order). There were significant differences in yield rates and turbidity between the groups. Acidity was highest in the control group, and acidity and volume of tofu tended to decrease with an increase in saltwort powder. L value and a value decreased as the content of slaltwort powder increased, but b value increased with increasing saltwort powder concentration. Hardness, chewiness, and gumminess were rated higher in the control and the 4% supplement groups than the others groups. In the sensory evaluation, cross section and soybean flavor were the highest in the 4% saltwort supplement group, and the presence of an "off-flavor" increased with the content of saltwort powder. The saltiness score was highest in the 20% supplement group. The 4% and 8% supplement groups were favored in the "feel after swallowing" assessment. Softness was the lowest in the 20% supplement group, and the 4% supplement group had the highest overall acceptability. As demonstrated by these results, the addition of saltwort positively affected the overall sensory evaluation of tofu and supplementation with saltwort at 4% and 8% might be considered the most appropriate choices. In conclusion, saltwort tofu expected to increase the functionality of new products, particularly with respect to product variety and health improvement.

Effects of Monascus anka powder on the quality characteristics of bread were investigated. Monascus anka powder was added to wheat flour at concentrations of 0, 1.0, 3.0 and 5.0%, respectively. The dough yield tended to decrease by adding Monascus anka products but those were not significant difference. The loaf volume index decreased by adding Monascus anka powder. The springiness of bread increased by the addition of Monascus anka. However bread with Monascus anka powder showed higher textural properties(strength, hardness, gumminess and brittleness) except for cohesi- veness than bread without Monascus anka powder. Color of L values decreased while a and b value increased with increasing quality of bread product No significant difference in pleasant flavor between bread with and without Monascus anka products were observed. However, bread with 1% Monascus anka powder showed the highest score for pleasant color, taste, texture and overall quality.
