To lower the calories of buckwheat noodle, which is good for reducing obesity and for Preventing adult disease, glucomannan and flour containing resistant starch(RS) were used during the noodle making Process. Compared with raw noodle, this buckwheat raw noodle had $30\%$ fewer calories. This low caloric buckwheat noodle was coated with olive oil which is reputed as well-being food to prevent soddening to make instant type buckwheat noodle. Its shelf-life was extended to 90 days under normal temperature($35^{\circ}C$I). Among four noodle samples with different combinations of raw materials, the best was made of flour with RS formula flour, buckwheat flour, glucomannan, activated gluten, and emulsifying agent. The one without salt had better quality. Among 6 kinds of packing materials, OPP/Al/PE composite level film demonstrated the best quality packing materials.

The effects of HPMC (hydroxypropyl methylcellulose) on instant fried noodles regarding oil uptake and in vitro lipid digestibility were evaluated according to different viscosity levels, as well as the same apparent viscosity. The oil uptake and lipid digestibility decreased with the increasing HPMC viscosity and replacement level, demonstrating that the reduced oil uptake and lipid digestibility may be caused by the high viscosity of HPMC. Furthermore, the oil uptake and lipid digestibility of noodles with HPMC at both apparent viscosities decreased with the increasing viscosity of HPMC in spite of having the same apparent viscosity. As a result, the high viscosity of HPMC on instant fried noodles was more critical factor compared to apparent viscosity for lowering oil uptake and lipid digestibility.

Purpose: We consider export of Korea for Muslim population of Cairo residents in Egypt. Product instant cup noodle and yuzu tea are mainly focused on Kano model and Timko's customer satisfaction factor (CS - Coefficient) analysis and conjoint analysis. Methods: Based on the evaluation and conjoint analysis, cluster analysis was additionally applied to further exploratory research as to what kind of population the target customer has. A total of 120 people, each 60 people each, were prosecuted for Muslim women, middle middle class who had over 3,000 Korean won annual income for that study, and in Cairo in August 18. Results: The Kano analysis result Instant cup noodles act as attractive elements for packaging state, cooking method, smell and convenience, and Yuzu tea acted as an attractive element of taste, eating method, raw materials, efficacy, packaging form. Customer satisfaction factor, instant cup noodles, capacity and noodle thickness was a factor of indifference in Kano analysis, but acted as an attractive factor, the way to eat citron tea was classified as a factor of indifference. Conclusion: In the case of instant cup noodles, we first set up the taste of chicken-based soup with high appreciation as a whole, a group that likes chicken-based soup taste and oil noodles for each market segment, a taste of beef based soup And popular group that likes raw noodles Appears that diversification is necessary, and it has been found that it is necessary to develop a product type by hierarchy and marketing with different size priority from group packaging container. In the case of Yuzu tea, it is indispensable to emphasize the efficacy, in particular, energy recovery preference appears high, appealing point matching the needs of energy recovery is necessary, release the citrus fruit as a product without buckwheat in Bisson Ho, the packaging container, The group that likes cups and sticks is different and we found that it is necessary to prepare all two types.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of ultra-fine powder kelp powder as a natural food additive for fast rehydration on the quality of freeze-dried fish cake noodle with soft and elastic texture properties during or after cooking. The average moisture content and water activity ranges of freeze-dried fish cake noodle were 3.71±0.12% (dry basis) and 0.185-0.332, respectively. The water activity of freeze-dried fish cake noodle decreased upon increasing the kelp powder content at the same moisture content. The rehydration ratios of fish cake noodle with 1, 3, and 5% (w/w) of kelp powder were 1.39, 1.49, and 1.77 g water/g solid, respectively. The hardness of the 5% (w/w) kelp powder-enhanced fish cake noodle after rehydration had the lowest value among the three samples upon using a texture profile analysis test (TPA). In the sensory hedonic test results, 5% (w/w) kelp powder added to fish cake noodle after rehydration produced the highest values in texture, flavor, and overall quality.

These days, online media, such as blogospheres, online communities, and social networking sites, provides the uncountable user-generated content (UGC) to discover market intelligence and business insight with. The business has been interested in consumers, and constantly requires the approach to identify consumers' opinions and competitive advantage in the competing market. Analyzing consumers' opinion about oneself and rivals can help decision makers to gain in-depth and fine-grained understanding on the human and social behavioral dynamics underlying the competition. In order to accomplish the comparison study for rival products and companies, we attempted to do competitive analysis using text mining with online UGC for two popular and competing ramens, a market leader and a market follower, in the Korean instant noodle market. Furthermore, to overcome the lack of the Korean sentiment lexicon, we developed the domain specific sentiment dictionary of Korean texts. We gathered 19,386 pieces of blogs and forum messages, developed the Korean sentiment dictionary, and defined the taxonomy for categorization. In the context of our study, we employed sentiment analysis to present consumers' opinion and statistical analysis to demonstrate the differences between the competitors. Our results show that the sentiment portrayed by the text mining clearly differentiate the two rival noodles and convincingly confirm that one is a market leader and the other is a follower. In this regard, we expect this comparison can help business decision makers to understand rich in-depth competitive intelligence hidden in the social media.

The quality of Ramyon prepared from hard red winter-western white (HRW-WW) and dark northern spring-western white (DNS-WW) flour blends having protein contents of 9.12-9.78% was examined. The noodles were manufactured by commercial process with the same water absorption. The weight and volume of cooked noodle were decreased as the protein content increased at the same cooking time. No significant differences in cooking properties were observed between noodles prepared from HRW-WW and DNS-WW blends. The weight and volume of noodle prepared from HRW-WW blend cooked for 4 min showed significant negative correlation with farinograph and extensograph data and protein contents of flours, but positive correlation with amylograph data. Such correlations were not found from noodles prepared from DNS-WW blend. Based on the sensory evaluation of cooked noodle it was concluded that the optimum protein content for noodle manufacture was in the range of 9.28-9.62%. The replacement of HRW with DNS flour had no effect on the sensory quality of noodle.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics of instant rice noodles made from rice flour with different harvest times rice processed products. The physicochemical characteristics of three different types of rice flour were investigated, including common rice flour (CRF, harvested in 2012), stored rice flour (SRF, harvested in 2008) and CSRF (CRF mixed with SRF). Instant rice noodles were manufactured with the three types of rice flour, and their quality and sensory characteristics were investigated. The water-binding capacity of rice flour was highest in CSRF. Regarding setback on RVA pasting viscosity, SRF and CSRF showed higher values than CRF. Water absorption after cooking of instant rice noodles was highest in common rice noodles (CON). The volume after cooking of instant rice noodles increased in rice noodles with stored rice flour (SRN). Turbidity of rice noodles using CSRF (CSRN) was higher value than that of CON. In texture properties, CON displayed the highest hardness, adhesiveness, springiness, and chewiness. In the sensory evaluation, overall acceptability values of CON were significantly higher than those of other rice noodles (SRN and CSRN). It was concluded that rice noodles with stored rice flour have increased turbidity with reduced texture and overall preference. This study suggests that addition of CRF may result in significantly increased overall quality of instant rice noodles prepared by SRF.

This study was conducted to improve the antioxidative activity of instant noodles containing enzymatic extracts from Ecklonia cava (EEC). EEC has relatively better antioxidative activity than extracts from other indigenous plants in Jeju Island. The EEC (2.5 mg/mL) had 82.5% for the hydroxy radical, 78.4% for the DPPH radical, and 64.9% for the superoxide anion radical scavenging activities, and 65.2% for the cell viability (100 ${\mu}g/mL$). According to the texture of the dough, the DPPH free radical scavenging of uncooked instant noodles, sensory evaluation of cooked instant noodles, and turbidity of the cooking drip, the optimal EEC concentration was 1.8% for the instant noodles. The major amino acids in the instant noodles with EEC were glutamic acid (24.2%), proline (10.2%), valine (10.0%), and isoleucine (12.3%). The zinc and iron in the instant noodles were enhanced by adding 1.5-1.8% EEC. The antioxidant activity of instant noodles with EEC was 75.4% for the hydroxy radical, 74.1% for the DPPH radical, and 51.2 % for the superoxide anion radical scavenging activities.

This study investigated the preference and intake frequency of a list of 15 commonly available high sodium Malaysian foods/dishes, dis cretionary salt use, and their possible association with demographics, blood pressures and anthropometric measurements among 300 Malaysian university students (114 males, 186 females; 259 ethnic Chinese, 41 Indians; 220 lean, 80 overweight). French fries and instant soup noodle were found to be the most preferred and most frequently consumed salty food, respectively, while salted fish was least preferred and least frequently consumed. Males had a significantly higher intake frequency of at least 6 of the salty foods, but the preference of most salty foods was not significantly different between genders. Ethnic Chinese significantly preferred more and took more frequently traditional and conventional Malaysian foods like asam laksa (a Malaysian salty-sour-spicy noodle in fish stock), salted biscuits and salted vegetable, while Indians have more affinity and frequency towards eating salty Western foods. Body Mass Index was significantly negatively correlated with the intake frequency of canned/packet soup and salted fish while waist circumference was significantly positively correlated with the preference of instant noodle. Also, an increased preference of potato chips and intake frequency of salted biscuits seemed to lead to a decreased WHR. Other than these, all the other overweight/obesity indicators did not seem to fully correlate with the salty food preference and intake frequency. Nevertheless, the preference and intake frequency of asam laksa seemed to be significant negative predictors for blood pressures. Finally, increased preference and intake frequency of high sodium shrimp paste (belacan)-based foods like asam laksa and belacan fried rice seemed to discourage discretionary salt use. In conclusion, the preference and intake frequency of the high sodium belacan-based dish asam laksa seems to be a good predictor for ethnic difference, discretionary salt use and blood pressures.

A method for quantitative determination of styrene dimer and trimer, which are suspected as endocrine disruptors, in foods and containers was studied. For residual contents of styrene dimer and trimer in two-kinds of containers, which contained instant noodle and yogurt, sample pieces were completely dissolved in tetrahydrofuran. The polymer was precipitated with n-hexane, a portion of supernatant was concentrated for analysis. A sensitive method was also optimized for the quantification of styrene dimer and trimer in foods such as instant cup noodle and yogurt by using GC/MS. Limits of Detection were about 3.2-87.0 ppb for styrene dimers and trimers. The highest recovery was obtained by extraction with acetone/hexane(1:1), followed by florisil clean-up. The levels of styrene dimer and trimer migrated by food simulants were much higher in heptane.
