Korean red ginseng tails was extracted with solutions having various ethanol concentration at the temperature range of 70-$100^{\circ}C$, Extraction was carried out for 1-5 times of 8 hours at given condition. Sensory properties and color of RG-Ext. were found to be significantly affected by conditions of extraction. Absorbance at 490nm was decreased as the ethanol concentration increased, the increase in ethanol concentration also showed an increase in the Hunter's values of "L" and "b", and a decrease in "a" value indicating the color of RG-Ext. was changed to yellowish with less in darkness. Increase in extraction time and temperature caused darker brown color which is indicates a typical phenomena of non-enzymatic browning reaction. The flavor and bitternes of RG-Ext. were found to be significantly increased as the ethanol concentration increase, the generally responses of acceptance range of ethanol concentration was 30-70%.

To examine the effects of nitrogen flushing on the storage stability of red pepper powders, the color and capsanthin and capsaicin contents were investigated. Capsanthin and capsaicin contents of red pepper powders during their storage decreased as the increase of temperature. Nitrogen flushing packaging was good for the retention of capsanthin and capsaicin than air packaging. Brown color of red pepper powders during their storage differed with storage temperature and packaging condition, thus low temperature and nitrogen reduced the brown color substantially, L and b values by Hunter's color were almost not changed during 10 months storage of red pepper powders, and a value was decreased as the increase of temperature. Therefore, nitrogen flushing packaging for the storage of red pepper powders was good than air packaging.

The tensile properties and color of fish meal film under various processing conditions were measured to obtain basic data for biodegradable Alaska Pollack meal protein isolate (APMPI) film. The tensile strength and the elongation of APMPI film were increased with casting volume of APMPI solution but those of APMPI film were weakened with the addition of glycerol amount as well as reduction of pH values. In case of adding various plasticizer, the tensile strength of film was increased in order as follows: sorbitol, polyethylene glycol and glycerol. The elongation was increased in order of polyethylene glycol, sorbitol and glycerol. The tensile strength of film increased with increment of APMPI concentration, but the elongation of film was not affected by APMPI concentration. The tensile strength of APMPI film was decreased with the increment of relative humidity but its elongation was increased with the increment of relative humidity, Not only lightness and yellowness of film added with sorbitol but also redness and total different color of film added with polyethylene glycol showed the highest value in Hunter color system.

This study was performed in order to determine the processing conditions (pre-drying at room temperature for 0 or 30 min, frying at $160^{\circ}C$ for 1 min or at $180^{\circ}C$ for 40 sec, and soaking for 0~24 h) of Sasambeong recorded in the "Sumunsasul". The Sasambeong was evaluated for crude lipid content, hardness, Hunter's color values, and sensory characteristics. After pre-drying at room temperature for 30 min, the crude lipid contents and hardness of Sasambeong were significantly increased. In addition, the crude lipid content and hardness of Sasambeong did not differ significantly according to the frying conditions. After pre-drying, the sensory characteristics of Sasambeong showed more improvement. The crude lipid content, hardness, Hunter's color values, and sensory characteristics of Sasambeong, which were prepared according to different soaking times (0, 6, 12, or 24 hr) were investigated. As soaking time increased, the crude lipid content and hardness of Sasambeong decreased with a range of 25.43~24.31% and 525.90~388.98 g, respectively. The sensory characteristics of Sasambeong showed no significant difference according to the soaking time. Overall, we think that the best processing conditions of Sasambeong were pre-drying at room temperature for 30 min and then frying at $160^{\circ}C$ for 1 min.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the quality of crackers added with different concentrations (0%, 3%, 5%, 7%, and 10%) of tomato concentrate. The study results found that pH and baking loss rate of crackers of the control were higher than those of the samples. On the other hand, density and moisture of crackers with 10% tomato concentrate were higher than those of the samples. Hunter L values of crackers decreased as concentration of tomato concentrate increased, whereas a and b values of crackers increased. In the texture analysis, hardness of crackers decreased according to concentration of tomato concentrate. DPPH free radical scavenging activity of crackers increased as concentration of tomato concentrate increased. In the sensory evaluation, taste, color, flavor, texture, and overall acceptability of crackers added with 5% tomato concentrate were higher than those of other samples. Therefore, the results suggest that addition of 5% tomato concentrate is effective for increasing consumer acceptability and functionality of crackers.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) powder on the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of Jook. The proximate composition of peanut powder was as follows: moisture, 1.8%; crude protein, 24.9%; crude lipid, 48.3%; crude ash, 2.9%; and carbohydrates, 22.1%. Each sample of Jook contained 20%, 40%, 60% and 80% of peanut powder when compared to the control, and their physicochemical properties were assessed. As the peanut powder content increased, there was a significant decrease in pH (p<0.05) In addition, Hunter's color L value decreased, whereas Hunter's color a and b values increased with increasing addition of peanut powder. The Jook showed lower spreadability and higher viscosity values as the peanut powder content increased. The results of the sensory evaluation showed that the Jook containing 40~60% peanut powder had the highest score. According to the overall preference, addition of 40% peanut powder positively affected the quality characteristics of Jook. These results suggest that peanut powder can be applied to Jook to achieve beneficial effects on the quality and functionality.

An investigation of various olive oils available in Korea was carried out to assess their quality properties such as color, oxidative stability, fatty acid composition, tocopherol content, sterol content and benzo(a)pyrene content. In color measurement, by using a Lovibond color scale and Hunter color difference meter, both a and b values of extra virgin olive oil were higher than those of pure olive oil by Tintometer (Lovibond PFX995). However, extra virgin olive oil showed higher a value and lower L value than pure olive oil by the Hunter color difference meter. In the rancimat test, the induction period of extra virgin olive oil $(38.03{\sim}8.47hr)$ was longer than that of pure olive oil $(32.40{\sim}9.94hr)$. In fatty acid composition, C18:1 $(72.01{\sim}78.53wt%)$ was present in the greatest amount, with lesser amounts of C18:2 $(4.88{\sim}10.36wt%)$ and C18:3 $(0.56{\sim}1.09wt%)$. The tocopherol content ranged from ${\alpha}-Toc\;4.09{\sim}13.89mg/100g$, ${\beta}-Toc\;0.57{\sim}1.34mg/100g$, and ${\gamma}-Toc$ $3.41{\sim}8.03mg/100g$, and ${\alpha}-tocopherol$ was found to be the main isomer in all oil samples. Therefore, there was little difference in the fatty acid composition and tocopherol content among the different types of olive oils. In sterol content, ${\beta}-sitosterol$ $(124.52{\sim}19.33mg/100g)$ and campesterol $(1.10{\sim}0.62mg/100g)$ of extra virgin olive oil were higher than that of pure olive oil $({\beta}-sitosterol\;92.68{\sim}17.44mg/100g,\;campesterol\;0.59{\sim}0.35mg/100g)$. Benzo(a)pyrene was found in almost all samples, with $0.287{\sim}0.106{\mu}g/kg$ in extra virgin olive oil and $1.204{\sim}2.130{\mu}g/kg$ in pure olive oil.

Fish paste containing anchovy (FPA) was prepared, and its quality was evaluated by determining calcium content, color, textural properties, and sensory attributes. The calcium content of FPA increased with an increasing amount of anchovy powder. The anchovy powder in the FPA tended to decrease lightness (L), and redness (a), but increased yellowness (b) for the Hunter color values. All test samples of 3 mm thickness had good flexibility, and did not break even after a 4-fold increase in applied stress. The FPA containing 20% anchovy showed the highest values in strength, hardness, and adhesiveness. For overall acceptance in the sensory evaluation, the FPA containing 5% anchovy was not different than the non-added control. These results suggest that anchovy can be applied to fish paste products for the purpose of high quality and functionality.

Black jujube was made by aging dried jujube and its physiochemical characteristics, antioxidant activities and ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activities were evaluated. The moisture and sugar contents were increased depending on the period of aging times and the pH was reduced thereby increasing acidity. The color of black jujube extract was changed from red to black resulting in decreases of Hunter color values L, a and b. As the aging progressed, sucrose was decomposed by increasing glucose and fructose, indicating higher contents of the total reducing sugars. Among the six different types of organic acids extracted from dried jujube, the levels of oxalic acid and citric acid were increased as the aging progressed. The total polyphenol contents in ethanol and water extracts of dried jujube were 7.74 and 8.12 mg/g, respectively. The water extract of black jujube aged for 48 hr contained the highest polyphenol contents at 16.82 mg/g. The 5'-hydroxymethylfurfural (5'-HMF) contents of black jujube extract significantly increased by longer aging times, and contained higher contents in the ethanol extract than water extract. The ethanol extract of black jujube showed the highest 5'-HMF content with 338.89 mg% after aging for 3 days. Also, $IC_{50}$ values of black jujube aged for 72 hr evaluated by DPPH and ABTS radical assays were 0.54 and 0.59 mg/mL, respectively. ${\alpha}$-Glucosidase inhibitory activities of black jujube at the concentration of 3.33 mg/mL (ethanol extract) increased from 65 to 80 % after aging for 72 hr.

Chicken breast meat was injected with calcium chloride alone and in combination with lactic acid (0.01% and 0.002%, respectively). The inhibitory effects of the treatments on microbial growth were determined in the injected chicken breast meat stored at $4^{\circ}C$ under aerobic packaging condition for 0, 3, and 7 d. Calcium chloride combined with 0.002% and 0.01% lactic acid reduced microbial counts by 0.14 and 1.08 Log CFU/g, respectively, however, calcium chloride alone was unable to inhibit microbial growth. Calcium chloride combined with 0.01% lactic acid was the most effective antimicrobial treatment and resulted in the highest initial redness value. Calcium chloride alone and combined with lactic acid suppressed changes in pH and the Hunter color values during storage. However, injection of calcium chloride and lactic acid had adverse effects on lipid oxidation and sensory characteristics. The higher TBARS values were observed in samples treated with calcium chloride and lactic acid when compared to control over the storage period. Addition of calcium chloride and lactic acid resulted in lower sensory scores for parameters tested, except odor and color, compared to control samples. Therefore, the formulation should be improved in order to overcome such defects prior to industrial application.
