The production rates of leavening gases and textures of cookies were investigated with various chemical leavening agents(baking powders). The chemical leavening agents could be divided into three group of a fast-acting group such as potassium bicarbonate, tartaric acid, aluminium ammonium sulfate, and fumaric acid, a slow-acting group such as ammonium bicarbonate, sodium bicarbonate, $glucono-{\delta}-lactone$, and ammonium chloride. and a double-acting group such as anhydro monocalcium phosphate, disodium dihydrogenpyrophosphate, and aluminium potassium sulfate according to the different production rate of gases. The leavening rate of ammonium bicarbonate, which was the highest of all leavening agents used in this experiment, was 131.25%. But its after-taste in a cookie was not good due to the residual ammonia. $Glucono-{\delta}-lactone$ only had no after-taste. The higher leavening rate, the more peaks in texture profile graph. Ammonium bicarbonate showed the most peaks in this experiment. It was found that the number of peak had correlation with brittleness of cookies $(r^2=0.8176)$ and brittleness of cookies was different as to various chemical leavening agents.

Confectionary and food products were collected from Korea and Japan. Types of packaging structure, amount of packaging materials used, basis weight of paperboard, and product to packaging ratio were evaluated for understanding confectionery and food packaging in both countries. Also, new packaging samples were designed and fabricated for reducing the use of packaging resources and for optimizing the product to packaging ratio. Korean confectionary products showed much higher empty space inside package than that of Japanese products, while food products were not significantly different between tow countries. There were no significant differences in the basis weight of paperboard collected. All of the re-designed confectionary products showed more than 15% saving in packaging resource compared to current confectionary products.

Rheological parameters which represent texture of chewing gum at each masticatory stage were selected by analysis of correlations among instrumental, sensory parameters and preferences. Sensory stiffness and instrumental puncture work were representative rheological parameters at initial stage, and sensory firmness and instrumental hardness at intermediate stage. The representative rheological parameters at final stage were sensory firmness and lift, and instrumental hardness, the slope of force-distance cruve of penetration test and springiness. An equation predicting consumer's preference and ideal texture profile of chewing gum with representative instrumental parameters were proposed.

Instrumental and sensory characteristics of chewing gums were measured at each masticatory stage, and the correlations between the characteristics were analyzed. In instrumental characteristics, similarities were proved between initial puncture work and puncture force, intermediate hardness and penetration work, final hardness and penetration work, and adhesion work and adhesion force. Final hardness correlated highly with yield force and the slope of force-distance curve of penetration test, and the slope also correlated significantly with springiness and adhesion force. In sensory characteristics, the correlations of the same parameter between trained panel and consumer were extremely high. Initial stiffness correlated significantly with both intermediate and final firmness by consumer. Highly significant correlations were obtained between final firmness and stiffness and between lift and cohesion by trained panel, whereas firmness correlated with adhesion negatively.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to investigate the perception of sugar reduction, nutrition education, and frequency of snacking in children according to the self-perceived dietary preferences for sweet taste by mothers in Busan. SUBJECTS/METHODS: A total of 277 mothers were surveyed, and their perceptions of sugar reduction and the frequency of snacking in children were assessed using a questionnaire. The subjects were classified into either a sweet (n = 91) or an unsweet (n = 186) group according to their self-perceived preferences for a sweet taste. RESULTS: In the sweet group, the results for sweet products were sweetened ice (86.8%), confectionery (74.7%), processed milk (73.6%), carbonated beverages (71.4%), and fermented milk (53.9%). In the unsweet group, the results were sweetened ice (88.7%), carbonated beverages (78.5%), processed milk (75.8%), confectionery (69.4%), and fermented milk (50.5%). The necessity of sugar intake reduction was high in both groups (sweet = 89.0%, unsweet = 82.8%). Beverage purchases after identifying the nutrition labeling was significantly lower in the sweet group than in the unsweet group (P < 0.05). The reasons for the beverage purchases instead of water were "habitually" (50.5%) and "like sweet taste" (25.3%) in the sweet group (P < 0.01). Snacking in children was significantly higher in the sweet group based on the increased frequencies of carbonated drinks (P < 0.01), fast food (P < 0.001), candy and chocolate (P < 0.05), crackers (P < 0.01), ramen (P < 0.01), and fish paste/hotdogs (P < 0.01). The frequency of purchase education after identifying the nutrition labeling was significantly lower in the sweet group than in the unsweet group (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that a perception of sugar reduction and practical nutrition education aimed at reducing the sugar intake are necessary to improve dietary habits.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of educational environment on job on the educational satisfaction and recommendation toward the educational service among the students who are major in cooking and confectionery bakery in Busan area. In addition, current student conducted to perform the moderating effect of part-time condition. In order to achieve the purpose of current study total 299 students of 2-year college students were employed and it was educational statistically analysed using SPSS 20.0 program. Three-step hierarchical regression analysis was employed to check whether the major part-time job experience had a moderating impact or not. The results showed that there was a positive correlation between the educational environment and educational satisfaction, and the adjustment effect was partially adopted in the educational environment. Eurthermore, the part-time condition has positive influence on the relationship between environmental element and educational1 satisfaction, so the moderating effect was verified. These results will be contributed to provide marketing strategy to improve the educational environment service for students as well as related foodservice industry.

Fed-batch fermentations with different feeding media were carried out in order to increase the productivity of invertase expression using a recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae containing plasmid pRB58. Two batch cultures showed the expression of the SUC2 gene at a low concentration of glucose, suggesting that glucose concentration could be used as a control variable in a fed-batch operation mode. In the fed-batch culture by feeding the basal medium, cell mass and specific invertase activity did not increase much as compared with the simple batch culture. A series of fed-batch cultures revealed that the sucrose-supplemented medium increased cell mass whereas the enriched medium did specific invertase activity. To capitalize on the synergism of the sucrose-supplemented medium and the enriched medium, the sucrose-supplemented enriched medium was used as a feeding medium. The fed-batch culture using this medium resulted in a 2.4-fold increase in cell mass and a 1.9-fold enhancement in specific invertase activity compared with those of the batch culture. The increase in cell mass and specific invertase activity led to a marked increase in total invertase activity, 250U/ml, which was 6.3 times higher than that of the batch culture.

Ethnic Korean onggi earthenwares were fabricated using different clay formulations and glazing treatments. Their permeability properties against oxygen, carbon dioxide, and moisture were measured at $20^{\circ}C$ and examined from the aspect of food preservation. Onggi walls consisted of micropores that offered higher gas and moisture permeation rates when compared with other food packaging materials. Earthenware walls were unique in having $CO_2/O_2$ permeability ratios of 0.60-1.00. Gas and moisture permeabilities were lower, with wall structure having lower porosity and surface glazing. Results revealed onggi jar packages of grape fruits could attain wide range of $O_2$ and $CO_2$ concentrations. Onggi containers present good opportunity to obtain optimum packaging conditions for respiring or ripening products, depending on commodity type.

Ultrasonic Cutting which uses a tuned blade resonant in a longitudinal mode, has been used to cut a range of materials from confectionery, baked products and frozen foods, to wood, bone, foams and composites. The Blade design typically uses finite element analysis, and it could be predicted vibration mode, gain and amplitude uniformity of the blade tip at resonant frequency. In this paper, FEA used to predict the vibration characteristic of the blade, and then the results were verified by analysis system of resonant frequency using the processed blade. The crack of the blade which is predicted from FEA was compared with the crack occurred by cutting experiment of rubber materials using the processed blade.
