The objective of this study was to investigate the color development and shelf-life effect of low-fat sausages (LFS) during refrigerated storage according to the additions of sodium lactate (SL), chitosan, and lac pigment. The LFS samples had $73{\sim}76%$ moisture, $3{\sim}4%$ fat, and $13{\sim}16%$ protein with a pH range of 6.4-6.6. The addition of chitosan ($MW\;=\;30{\sim}40\;kDa$) to LFS increased most textural properties. Hunter a (redness) values were increased by the addition of 0.05% lac pigment. The microbial growth of Listeria monocytogenes increased with increasing storage time. The addition of 2% SL and 0.3% chitosan with MW higher than $30{\sim}40\;kDa$ effectively inhibited the growth of L. monocytogenes. The microbial growth of L. monocytogenes was further reduced with increasing chitosan MW. These results indicated that the combination of SL with chitosans (MW > 30 kDa, 0.3%) and lac pigment (0.05%) improved shelf-life and color development in LFS during refrigerated storage.

This study was carried out to investigate a point of difference between normal and inferior Korean red ginseng (Naeback red ginseng = red ginseng with white part of clear boundary in phloem and/or xylem of ginseng body, saengnaeback red ginseng red ginseng with white part of indistinct boundary). White part with clear or indistinct boundary in center of ginseng body was observed in inferior red ginseng (naeback and saengnaeback red ginseng), and the differences in the internal color intensity was also found with naked eye. In hunter color values of normal and inferior parts of red ginseng in accordance with particle size, L value was increased with a diminishment in particle size, while a and b value were decreased. Absorbance at visible spectrum did not differ from water and 70% ethanol extract from normal and inferior parts of red ginseng, but absorbance in UV spectrum of extract from naeback part showed higher than those of normal and saengnaeback part. In comparison of intrastructure by electron microscope, the horizontal and vertical section of cortex and pith layer from normal part showed the very dense state, but small holes were found in naeback part of red ginseng by naked eye and electron microscope. The specific surface area of normal, naeback and saengnaeback part appeared 3.02, 3.33 and 6.55 ㎡/g, respectively. From above results, we consider saengnaeback red ginseng is red ginseng in the intermediate process which normal red ginseng changes to naeback red ginseng.

Riceyeotgangjung (RYG) with added spirulina was prepared with citron juice for masking of odor. Oil temperature for puffing was found to be $220^{\circ}C$ for frying dry rice based upon the results of expansion rate and color. RYGs with added spirulina (1, 2, and 3%) were prepared under the above conditions, and their physicochemical and sensory properties were examined under storage at $60^{\circ}C$ for 15 days. Moisture content of RYG decreased proportionally with the spirulina content and storage time. The hardness levels of the freshly made RYGs with spirulina were higher than that of control. During storage, the hardness of the control gradually increased, but those of the RYGs with spirulina gradually decreased, although no significant differences existed between the spirulina containing RYGs. Lightness and redness values in the Hunter color system decreased according to the spirulina content and storage time. Yellowness value also increased with the spirulina content and storage time. Phycocyanin and total phenolic content increased with spirulina content, but decreased with the storage period. Sensory evaluation results showed that RYG with 2% added spirulina received the highest scores for color, taste, overall acceptability, and intention of purchase. As a result, the optimal addition amount of spirulina to RYG is recommended to be 2%.

This study examined the effects of temperature, D-psicose concentration, pH, and various amino acids on the Maillard browning reaction of D-psicose and glycine mixture and compared browning color intensity with those of other sugars, such as sucrose, D-glucose, D-fructose, and D-tagatose. When D-psicose (0.1 M) and glycine (0.1 M) mixture was heated at $70-100^{\circ}C$ for 5 hr, the absorbance at 420 nm increased with increasing reaction temperature and time. The Hunter a, b values, and color difference (${\Delta}E$) increased with increasing D-psicose concentration and pH within the range of pH 3-7 except at pH 6, while the L value decreased. The rate of Maillard browning reaction was in order of D-tagatose>D-psicose $\fallingdotseq$ D-fructose>D-glucose>sucrose. The browning color intensity of the D-psicose-basic and non-polar amino acids mixtures was higher than that of the D-psicose-acidic amino acids.

The objective of this study was to assess the quality characteristics of morning-rolls containing various levels (0, 4, 8, and 12%) of bamboo leaf powder. The results demonstrated that morning-roll volume decreased with increasing amounts of bamboo leaf powder, and as the bamboo leaf powder content increased, the Hunter's color 'L', 'a' and 'b' values were significantly reduced (p<0.05). For the amylogram characteristics, the addition of bamboo leaf powder to the flour reduced peak viscosity, holding strength, final viscosity, and setback. The results of the sensory evaluation demonstrated that control (0%) and 8% addition of bamboo leaf powder had the best scores in taste, color, flavor, texture, appearance, softness, wetness, residual mouth feel, and overall acceptability. Thus, it appears that by using 8% additions of bamboo leaf powder, the functionality, nutritional composition, taste, color, and flavor of morning-rolls containing bamboo leaf powder can be developed. This result will support the development of better quality bamboo-leaf morning-rolls.

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.

We conducted this study to investigate the quality characteristics of extruded noodles(EN) mixed with cereals. The EN were evaluated for cooking properties(weight, water absorption, volume, and turbidity), Hunter's color values, texture characteristics, and sensory characteristics. The cooked weight, water absorption, and volume of the cooked EN were significantly decreased relative to that of control noodles, whereas the turbidity increased. Hunter's color L- and b-value of EN were decreased compare with the control noodles, but a-value was increased. Hunter's color L-value of cooked EN was increased, whereas a- and b-value was increased. The texture characteristics(hardness, adhesiveness, springiness, gumminess, and chewiness) of the cooked EN-2 and EN-3 were similar to the cooked control noodles. A sensory characteristics (appearance, flavor, texture during mastication, taste, and overall quality) of EN-1 were significantly decreased relative to that of control noodles, but EN-2 and EN-3 was not different to control noodles. As the results of this study indicate that extrusion processing could be used to make the EN mixed with cereals.

The study investigated the quality characteristics of white castella prepared with 0, 10, 20, and 30% burdock (Arctium lappa L.) powder. The specific gravity and weight of castella increased with higher burdock powder content. Height and baking loss rate of castella were not significantly different among the samples. The pH of castella decreased with increasing burdock powder content, whereas $^{\circ}Brix$ of castella increased. Hunter L and b values of crust increased, whereas a values decreased with addition of burdock powder. Hunter L values of crumb decreased, whereas a and b values of crumb increased. The hardness of castella increased upon addition of burdock powder, whereas fracturability, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess, and resilience decreased. DPPH radical scavenging activity and total polyphenol contents increased significantly upon addition of burdock powder (P<0.05). In the sensory evaluation, crust color, crumb color, and flavor were highest in the control group. Moistness had the highest scores in castella containing 20 and 30% burdock powder. Chewiness and overall acceptability were higher in castella added with 10% burdock powder than in the control and other samples, but there were no significant differences among the samples.

This study evaluated the quality characteristic of red pepper powders of Hanbando and Cheongyang cultivars by particle size. Two types of powder samples for pepper paste and Kimchi were prepared, and capsaicinoid contents, Hunter Lab color values, and ASTA values by particle size distribution were investigated. Particle size distribution was normal in the pepper paste powder; however, an abnormal distribution was shown for the Kimchi powder. In addition, the greatest particle sizes were $300{\sim}425\;{\mu}m$ in the pepper paste powder. In accordance with smaller particle size, redness (a-value), ASTA values, and capsaicinoid contents increased. Redness (a-value) by particle size was in the range of 15.13~31.34, and ASTA values were in the range of 53.35~96.87. Capsaicinoid contents by particle size were in the range of 1.90~6.05 mg/100 g for Hanbando and 156.65~235.10 mg/100 g for Cheongyang.
