Korean black raspberry fruits (bokbunja) were collected from 11 different producing regions, and commercial black raspberry wines were obtained from 24 manufacturers. Samples were analyzed for soluble solids, titratable acidity, pH, reducing sugar content, hunter color values, intensity, hue, total phenolic content, and organic acids. The fruit samples showed similar pH levels (3.43-3.52), but significantly differed in total acidity levels (9.98-16.2 g/L). The predominant organic acids in the fruit samples were citric acids (1.39-5.63 mg/mL) and succinic acids (0.25-6.53 mg/mL). Among the samples, black raspberry fruits from Goksung and Nonsan showed the lowest levels of total phenolic content, and the lowest values in intensity. The fruits from Jeongeup and Sunchang showed higher levels of phenolic content, soluble solids, and intensity. Some wine samples, including BH, KO, SR, and SE, showed overall high levels of phenolic content, organic acids like citric and succinic acid, and color values such as $a^*$, $b^*$, and intensity. Other wine samples, including DW, SC, GJ, and NB, were high in acetic acid, color values like $L^*$, and hue.

Dressing is a seasoned mixture usually used as a stuffing in food. Quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of fruit dressing using lentil legume were investigated. The four groups were divided into D-1(fruit dressing purchased from the local market in Deagu, Korea), D-2 (grapefruit-sugaring dressing prepared with grapefruit sugaring and lentil legume paste), D-3 (vinegar dressing purchased from the local market in Deagu, Korea), D-4 (pineapple-vinegar dressing prepared with pineapple vinegar and lentil legume paste), and then they were analyzed with regard to general compositions, Hunter's color value, mineral and free amino acid content and antioxidant activities. The pH and titratable acidity in all samples ranged from 2.9 to 4.6 and from 0.6 to 1.2%, respectively. The crude protein content were 2.29% for D-2 dressing and 4.03 for D-4 sample, while were not detected D-1 and D-3 samples. In case of Hunter's value, The ' L'and 'a' values of all samples ranged from 45.98 to 56.54 and from -1.59 to 3.30, respectively. The D-4 sample exhibited the higher levels of Ca (215.40 mg/kg), K (1,105.83 mg/kg), Mg (233.63 mg/kg) and Fe (13.78 mg/kg). The levels of heavy metals (As, Pb, Cd and Hg) in all samples were not detected. The contents of total amino acid in D-3 and D-4 samples were 8.269 and 3.419 mg/mL, respectively. The highest contents of total phenols($191.13{\mu}g\;GAE/mL$) and DPPH radical scavenging activity(93.69%, Inhibition) were observed in D-4 sample.

The physicochemical characteristics of green tea prepared by four kinds of alkaline ionized water (AIW; pH 8.57, 8.85, 9.23, and 10.06, respectively) were evaluated. Green tea was made by soaking commercial green tea leaves in AIW at $75^{\circ}C$ for 10 min (1.0 g/100 mL). Total phenol contents, total flavonol contents, and ascorbic acid contents of green tea decreased with increasing pH of AIW. Increasing pH of AIW tended to decrease lightness (L) and redness (a) of green tea but increase yellowness (b) in Hunter color values. The amount of epicatechins and radical scavenging activity of green tea also decreased with increasing pH of AIW, while caffeine was not significantly affected. Tyrosinase inhibition activity was the highest in AIW of pH 8.85.

Electron beam irradiation was applied to examine microbial safety and qualities of black pepper powder and commercial Sunsik. Whole black pepper powder and commercial Sunsik were irradiated at 2, 4, 8, 12, and 16 kGy. Microorganism contamination in black pepper powder and commercial Sunsik were significantly decreased by irradiation. Decimal reduction doses ($D_{10}\;value$) of total bacteria count in black pepper powder and commercial Sunsik were 5.32 and 1.56 kGy, respectively. $D_{10}\;value$ of yeast and mold were 2.54 and 2.14 kGy for black pepper powder and commercial Sunsik, respectively. Electron beam irradiation caused negligible changes in Hunter color L, a, and b values. Sensory evaluations of black pepper powder and commercial Sunsik showed no significant changes among samples. These results indicate electron beam irradiation improves microbial safety and qualities of black pepper powder and commercial Sunsik.

We investigated the effects of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) treatment (0, 0.5, and 1.5 ppm) for 16 hours, followed by storage at ambient temperature, on the qualities of pears (Pyrus pyrifolia c.v. "Hwasan"). Color differences, as measured using the Hunter L, a, and b values, showed the greatest decreases before storage, and 8 weeks after storage, when fruit was exposed to 1.5 ppm 1-MCP. The sensory qualities of c.v. "Hwasan" pears were good until 4 weeks of storage after treatment with 0 ppm 1-MCP, until 6 weeks when 0.5 ppm 1-MCP was employed, and until 7 weeks when 1.5 ppm 1-MCP treatment was performed. Fruit and storage quality in terms of all of hardness, sugar content, PPO activity, respiration amount, and ethylene production increased in the 8 weeks after application of 1.5 ppm 1-MCP. Consequently, it seems that 1-MCP treatment, especially at 1.5 ppm, before storage of pears at ambient temperature, effectively improves the quality of pears of c.v. "Hwasan".

The effects of shiitake mushroom (Lentinus edodes) on texture properties of surimi gel were investigated. Surimi gels containing 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20% (w/w) of shiitake mushroom were prepared, and then color, rheological properties, and sensory evaluation were analyzed. Increasing the amount of mushroom in the fish paste tended to decrease the lightness in Hunter color value, but to increase the redness and yellowness. All test samples with 3 mm thickness had good flexibility and did not break even after 4 times folds. The sample containing 20% mushroom showed the highest values in strength, hardness, gumminess and brittleness. In sensory evaluation, the higher amounts of mushroom obtained favorite score in color and flavor, and 10% mushroom sample had the best score in overall acceptance. These results suggest that shiitake mushroom can be applied to fish paste for the purpose of high quality.
