This study is a continuous work for the standardization of children's kimchi preparation. In order to find out the proper red pepper powder for children's kimchi, four kinds of red pepper powder(A, B, C, D) sold in Kyungsang province were used as samples. The proximate composition, color value, capsaicinoids concentration and sugar content in four kinds of the red pepper powder were determined, and sensory evaluation of kimchi Prepared with those was carried out for different fermentation times. Moisture contents of red pepper powder A, B, C and D were in the range of 11.59~13.48%. Lipid and ash contents of samples were in the range of 7.59~8.39% and 4.34~7.45%, respectively. In comparision of color values measured by a Hunter colorimeter, red pepper powder A showed the highest value for a and b values. Also A showed the brightest color as measured in ASTA color and L value. Capsaicin concentration of D and dihydrocapsaicin concentration of C were found to be the highest among the sanlples. The capsaicin equivalent was in tile order of D>C>A>B. The content of total sugar was in the order of B>A>D>C. In the sensory evaluation of children's kimchi prepared with four kinds of red pepper powder, the color and total acceptability of kimchi prepared with A were found to be the best. The results of sensory evaluation between kimchi prepared with A and school supplied kimchi showed that the former was better. And the composition of A red pepper powder was as follows: capsaicin equivalent 24.l5mg%, total sugar content 15.79% and ASTA color value 178.2.

Soybean powder is a readily-available food ingredient. Furthermore, saltwort powder is an herb with various physiological effects. Therefore, in this study we examined the physiochemical characteristics of soybean dasik prepared with 0, 4, 8, and 12% saltwort powder. We measured Hunter's color values, mechanical characteristics, and sensory qualities. The result of each analysis is as follows. There were not significant differences between the moisture content of the control group and the groups with saltwort powder. The ash content increased while the fat and protein content decreased as the ratio of saltwort powder increased (p<0.001). In the analysis of color differences, the L, a, and b values decreased as the ratio of saltwort powder increased (p<0.001). The hardness (p<0.001) of the groups increased as the ratio of saltwort powder increased, but adhesiveness decreased. Sensory evaluation data showed that softness, hardness, and chewiness decreased while color increased as the ratio of saltwort powder increased. Finally, aroma, sweet taste, nutty taste, and overall acceptability was shown to be best for the 4% addition group.

In order to compare quality characteristics and oxidative stabilities of rice germs prepared under different roasting conditions, sensory evaluation, color value, tocols (tocopherol+tocotrienol) contents, and peroxide value were investigated. Optimum roasting temperatures for the best acceptability were 20, 10, and 6 min at 170, 180 and 190, respectively. Hunter color a values of rice germ increased as roasting temperature and time increased, whereas L value decreased. Peroxide values of unroasted, and roasted rice germs at $170^{\circ}C$ for 20 min, $180^{\circ}C$ for 10 min, and $190^{\circ}C$ for 6 min were 2.0, and 145.6, 169.5, and 182.9 meq/kg, respectively, after 9 days storage at $60^{\circ}C$. Four tocopherol and three tocotrienol isomers were identified, whereas no ${\beta}$-tocotrienol was detected. The major tocopherol and tocotrienol isomers in rice germ were ${\alpha}$-tocopherol and ${\alpha}$-tocotrienol, respectively. ${\alpha}$-Tocopherol content in roasted rice germ decreased significantly during storage, whereas those of ${\beta}$- and ${\gamma}$-tocopherols slowly decreased. ${\delta}$-Tocopherol had the highest stability among tocopherol isomers in roasted rice germ. Similar trends were observed in tocotrienol isomers.

This study developed patties using the Antarctic krill Euphausia superba and investigated the food quality of the patties. Three different types of krill patty were produced: krill patties with added 1) corn oil (CKP), 2) AA grade surimi (AKP), and FA grade surimi (FKP). Their proximate composition, Hunter color value, texture, sensory evaluation, and levels of astaxanthin, cholesterol, calories, total amino acids, fatty acids, and fluoride were investigated. The moisture and crude protein contents were highest in FKP. The calorie and astaxanthin contents were highest in CKP and lowest in AKP. The cholesterol content was highest in CKP and lowest in AKP. Measuring the Hunter color value of cross-sections of the patties, the L values were highest for FKP, and the a and b values highest for AKP. The total amino acids were highest in FKP and lowest in CKP. The major fatty acids were highest in FKP. The hardness and chewiness were highest in FKP and lowest in CKP. The fluoride content was highest in AKP and lowest in FKP. The sensory evaluation had the highest scores for FKP and lowest for CKP. Accordingly, FKP appears to have better food quality than the other two products.

Alkaline treatment during preparation of anchovy extracts was studied for its changes in some of the physicochemical and sensory qualities. The dried anchovy was blended in 0-0.5N NaOH solutions and then incubated at $60^{\circ}C$ for 6 hours. After extraction the suspensions were neutralized and centrifuged. The results showed that the yields of solids and protein were increased by 3-5 fold of those of water extract as alkaline concentration and treatment time increased. The intrinsic viscosity showed little changes for the extracts prepared with 0-0.2N NaOH solution while the extracts prepared with over 0.3N NaOH resulted a initial small decrease followed by a rapid increase to the maximum point. The changes in color expressed as Hunter 'L', 'a' and 'b' values showed that the L value increased rapidly until 3 hours of treatment followed by a decrease, and 'a' and 'b' values were increased a little. The intensities of odor and taste were markedly increased by 2-3 fold for all of the descriptions investigated where clam-like odor and taste and sea complex odor were particularly significant.

Effects of KCl addition in brining solution, microwave heating and salts mixture addition into half fermented Kakdugi on physical and sensory properties were investigated during fermentation and storage. The concentration range of salts added were $0.001{\sim}0.01\;M$. The hardness of the Chinese radish was rapidly reducing during first 30 minutes of fermentation at $25^{\circ}C$ and then slightly decreased thereafter, while storage at $4^{\circ}C$ caused much slower decrease. Kakdugi prepared by salting in NaCl-KCI solution showed a slight higher values in hardness. The Hunter color values of Kakdugi liquid was steadily increased in 'L' value and slight decrease in 'a' value during fermentation. The Kakdugi prepared by salting in NaCl-KCl solution and stored after addition of salts mixture was evaluated desirable for organoleptic odor and taste.

This study was conducted to evaluate the microbial (Total aerobic count, Coliform, Coagulase positive Staphylococci, Salmonella, Yeast/Mold, Escherichia coli, Bacillus cereus), Hunter'color values ($L^*$, $a^*$, $b^*$) and organoleptic quality of freeze-dried Miyeokguk, Korean seaweed soup in space food. Bacillus cereus was 1 log level while not detected in the sample irradiated at 10 kGy. Hunter's color values of the samples irradiated less than 10 kGy was not significantly different (p>0.05). The sensory evaluation result showed that the preference scores in all the sensory properties decreased when it was irradiated over 10 kGy, but sensory score of less than 10 kGy samples was similar in all terms. Therefore, it was considered that gamma irradiation at 10 kGy was enough to sterilize the freeze-dried Miyeokguk without deterioration of sensory quality.

This study was conducted to develop semi-solid infant foods using pumpkins. Purees were made from pumpkin and sweet-pumpkin, and were manufactured with blending, steaming or blanching. The moisture content of sweet-pumpkin puree was lower than pumpkin puree, but viscosity, Hunter\`s L, a, b values, $\beta$-carotene and riboflavin contents were higher. Steaming puree from sweet-pumpkin had the highest score in overall-preference and was selected as the ingredient far infant foods. In amylogram, gelatinization temperature was decreased and amylograph viscosity was increased, as the content of modified starch became high. Semi-solid infant floods were prepared with steaming puree from sweet-pumpkin, modified corn starch, rice powder and dairy products such as milk, whole milk powder and skim milk powder. After sterilization of infant foods, Hunter\`s color values were little changed. And the viscosity of infant foods were increased generally, but kept in 3% modified starch group. Sensory evaluation results showed that sweet-pumpkin puree 40%, rice flour 7%, skim milk powder 3% and water 50% was optimum ratio of infant foods.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics of fish paste added with different amounts (0%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, and 2%) of spirulina powder. Specifically, moisture content, pH value, color value, texture value, total polyphenol content, DPPH radical scavenging activity, and sensory evaluation were measured in the samples. The moisture content of the fish paste added (0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, and 2%) ranged from 68.60% to 69.03%, and the increased amounts of spirulina powder in the fish paste tended to decrease the pH value. For the Hunter color values, the L, a values of surface and inside of the fish paste decreased with increased amounts of spirulina powder. The b values of the fish paste increased with increased amounts of spirulina powder. In the texture meter test, the hardness, gumminess, and adhesiveness decreased with the increased amounts of spirulina powder, and chewiness of group adding spirulina powder was measured lower than control. Springiness of the fish paste did not appear statistically significantly different among the samples according to the increased amounts of spirulina powder. Total polyphenol content of fish paste added with spirulina powder increased with increased amounts of spirulina powder, and DPPH radical scavenging was heightened according to increased amounts of spirulina powder. In sensory evaluation, the addition of 1% spirulina powder had the best score in odor, texture, taste, and overall preference. These results suggest that spirulina powder can be applied to fish paste to increase quality, preference, and functionality.

The principal objective of this study was to evaluate the utilization of fish paste with added Capsosiphon fulvescens powder were 0, 3, 5, and 7%. The moisture, crude protein, crude lipid, crude ash and carbohydrate contents of the used Capsosiphon fulvescens powder were 8.5, 33.2% 1.1, 9.6, and 47.6%, respectively. For the Hunter color values, the L, a values of the fish paste decreased with increasing concentrations of Capsosiphon fulvescens powder. The b values of the fish paste appreciation with increasing concentrations of Capsosiphon fulvescens powder. And the folding test which represent the flexibility of the fish paste, all test samples showed AA. In the texture meter test, the hardness, strength, cohesiveness, and springiness increased according to increasing concentrations of Capsosiphon fulvescens powder. However, the gumminess and brittleness of the fish paste reduced by the addition of Capsosiphon fulvescens powder. In the sensory evaluation, color and taste of the fish paste were preferred 5% Capsosiphon fulvescens powder and the fish paste prepared with 5% Capsosiphon fulvescens powder were preferred over other fish pastes. These results suggest that Capsosiphon fulvescens powder can be applied to fish paste for the purpose of high quality and functionality.
