This study was performed in order to examine the functional and quality characteristics of raw noodles with added kale powder. The raw noodles were prepared at a concentration of 4, 8, and 12% (w/w) of the kale, based on flour weight. The antioxidant activity of kale powder, specifically DPPH free radical scavenging, reducing activity, and total phenolic content were found to be 75.16%, 1.24 (O.D.) and 44.47 mg GAE/g, respectively. Using Hunter Lab color values for raw noodle with added kale powder, L (lightness) values decreased with an increased concentration of kale powder, whereas a (redness) values decreased (p<0.001). In a texture analysis, chewiness (p<0.01), gumminess (p<0.001), and cohesiveness (p<0.001) increased significantly as the amount of added kale powder increased. According to sensory evaluations: color, flavor, taste, texture, and overall palatability had the highest score in noodle with 8% kale powder (p<0.001). During periods of storage, moisture contents were decreased when kale powder concentrations increased, but pH did not differ in any of the groups and bacteria cell counts were between 0% and 8%. Kale noodles were observed at 8% then 0%, decreased by 102 log CFU/g. The antioxidant activities of raw noodles with added kale powder were increased by 8%, a 30~50% increase over the control group. These results suggest that kale powder is useful as a functional food resource with antioxidant activities.

Background: The purpose of improving the quality of oriental medicinal herbs is to contribute to the improvement of the income of farm. The present study investigated the effect of reasonable drying methods, different storage conditions and packageing materials on quality and stability of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi and for developing GAP (good agricultural practice) guide book. Methods and Results: Three methods of drying Scutellaria baicalensis roots produced over two years were used to estimate loss rate owing to drying, storage, and packaging. The methods of drying were categorized into natural drying (36 - 60 h by sunshine), drying with heat dryer (2 - 10 h), or drying with gas bulk dryer (2 - 10 h). After cleaning, and initial drying for a few days under controlled temperature conditions, the second phase of drying was carried out at 35, 45 and $55^{\circ}C$. Changes in hunter color values and quality under the two studied storage treatments (at $20^{\circ}C$ indoors and at $4^{\circ}C$ in a refigerator) were evaluated. Storage period for 60, 120, and 180 days in three packaging materials, PE (polyethylene package), PP (polypropylene gunnysack), and WP (watertight packing paper) were studied. Conclusions: Initial cleaning, reasonable gas drying and hot air drying, and drying in an oven at 35 and $45^{\circ}C$ after cutting the roots resulted in the lowest loss rates in S. Baicalensis root. Hunter color valuse indicated that stroage of dry roots at room temperature was better than PP packaging, and that cold stroage was better than PE packaging for long-term stability.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics and antioxidative effect of cookies prepared with Curcuma longa L. powder (0, 1, 2, 3, 4%) substituted for flour. The pH of cookie dough decreased significantly in response to the addition of all levels of Curcuma longa L. powder (CLP). However, there were no significant differences in dough values among the test groups. Furthermore, when the spread factor values were compared among the groups, they were found to be inversely proportional to the CLP concentration. In addition, Hunter's color L value significantly decreased with increasing CLP content, whereas the a and b values increased. According to textural measurements, substitution of 1~4% for CLP resulted in increased hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, and brittleness when the samples were compared to the control. The results of sensory evaluation showed that the cookies containing 2% CLP had the highest scores. The acid value, peroxide value, and thiobarbituric acid value were all lower in cookies with 2% and 3% CLP than in cookies made with 4% CLP and control cookies.

To develop health food using old pumpkin, freeze-dried old pumpkin powders were added into wheat flour in the ratio of 0, 1, 2, 4, and 8% and the quality characteristics of the baked products were investigated. Moisture content and water activity of breads with added pumpkin powders were raised from 42.22 and 0.528 in 1% addition ratio to 0.576 and 44.39% in 9% addition ratio compared to 40.69% and 0.521 in the bread of non-added, respectively and these increases were due to the effect of the added pumpkin powders. Water holding capacity of the added pumpkin powders raised the weight of the breads while the specific volume was decreased at that time. In the Hunter's color values, as the pumpkin powders content increased, 'L' and 'a' values were decreased while 'b' value was increased from ＋29.44 in 1% addition ratio to ＋45.58 in 8% addition ratio of freeze-dried old pumpkin powders compared to ＋12.65 in the bread of non-added. In the texture properties, hardness, fracturability, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness were increased by the added content of pumpkin powders hardness to 561 g in the bread withof 8% added pumpkin powders from 248 g in the bread of non-added. Judging from texture, taste and overall acceptability of the product, the recommended substitution level for freeze-dried old pumpkin powders in bread was 4% or less

This study is performed to examine the functional and quality characteristics of glutinous barley Jeung-pyun added with beet powder. Jeung-pyun is being prepared with concentration of 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8% (w/w) of the beet according to nonglutinous rice powder weight. The pH level of Jeung-pyun batters decrease along with fermentation time. However, the pH level of Jeung-pyun is higher than that of the Jeung-pyun batter. For hunter's color value of glutinous barley Jeung-pyun added with beet powder, the L (lightness) values decrease with increasing concentrations of beet powder, whereas a (redness) values increase (p<0.001). In the texture analysis, the hardness, chewiness and gumminess are significantly increased with the amount of glutinous barley Jeung-pyun with added beet powder. According to sensory evaluations, the appearance, color, flavor, taste, texture and overall quality are considered very good in the 4% of added beer powder in glutinous barley Jeung-pyun (p<0.001). The antioxidant activities of beet powder by DPPH free radical scavenging activity, ferric reducing antioxidant power and total phenolic contents are being recorded at $259.52{\mu}{\ell}/mg$, $0.44{\pm}0.01$, $15.29{\pm}0.04mg$ GAE/g respectively. The antioxidant activities of glutinous barley Jeung-pyun added with beet powder increase with increasing concentrations of beet powder. These results suggest that beet powder are useful as functional food resources within antioxidant activities.

In this study, the antimicrobial activity of black garlic pomace extract (BGPE) was examined, and its washing applicability to spinach was investigated. BGPE had antimicrobial activity against both Gram-positive (Listeria monocytogenes and Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative (Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Salmonella Typhimurium) food-borne pathogens. In particular, antimicrobial activities of BGPE against Gram-positive bacteria were higher than those against Gram-negative bacteria. Spinach samples were treated with 0.5% BGPE to determine the effect of BGPE on reducing naturally existing microorganisms on the surface of spinach leaves. BGPE treatment reduced populations of total aerobic bacteria and yeast/molds in spinach by 1.23~1.35 log CFU/g and 0.82~1.12 log CFU/g during 9 days of storage, respectively, compared with those of control samples. After treatment, there were no significant differences in color quality such as Hunter L, a, and b values and total color difference (${\Delta}E$). These results clearly indicate that BGPE treatment can be useful for improving microbiological safety and maintaining color quality of spinach during storage.

This study was carried out to find optimum substitution amounts of garlic juice for the purpose of garlic-Yackwa development. Five experimental groups containing 0 t.s, 1/2 t.s, 1 t.s, 1 and 1/2 t.s, and 2 t.s of garlic juice per 1 cup of flour were compared with basic group containing 2 t.s of ginger juice per 1 cup of flour (ginger-Yackwa), by Hunter's colorimetry, texture profile analysis and sensory evaluation. In Hunter's color value, Yackwa, substituted garlic juice from 1/2 t.s to 2 t.s per 1 cup of flour for ginger juice, were lower than ginger-Yackwa. The higher amounts of garlic juice in garlic-Yackwa showed the lower tendancy of L and a values. The b value of garlic-Yackwa containing from 0 t.s to 2 t.s of garlic juice was higher than that of ginger-Yackwa. The higher amounts of garlic juice in garlic-Yackwa showed the higher tendancy of b value. In the texture characteristics, hardness, adhesiveness, springiness and chewiness of all garlic-Yackwa were significantly lower than those of ginger-Yackwa. Cohesiveness of garlic-Yackwa containing from 1 t.s to 2 t.s of garlic juice was significantly higher than that of ginger-Yackwa. Gumminess of Yackwa with garlic juice was higher ($1_{1/2}$ t.s, 2 t.s) than that of ginger-Yackwa, or lower (0 t.s∼l t.s) than that of ginger-Yackwa. The higher amounts of garlic juice in garlic-Yackwa showed the higher tendancies of hardness, cohesiveness and gumminess, while springiness and chewiness showed vice versa. In sensory evaluation, the higher amounts of garlic juice in garlic-Yackwa showed the better color, appearance, flavor, taste and overall acceptability. Especially garlic-Yackwa with 2 t.s of garlic juice showed the best color, appearance, taste, overall acceptability among them. Garlic-Yackwa with 2 t.s of garlic juice evaluated the best, while ginger-Yackwa evaluated the worst. In conclusion, these results indicated that 2 t.s of garic juice per 1 cup of flour could be very useful as a substitute for ginger juice in developing garlic-Yackwa.
