This study was tried to evaluate possibilities for discriminating the mixture degree of wheat flour from buckwheat products. Buckwheat was milled into four grades of powder, i.e. whole grain flour (WGF), inner layer flour(ILF), middle layer flour(MLF) and outer layer flour(OLF)), and these powders were mixed with wheat flour(WF) to make mixed samples. Ash, protein and fat contents of the buckwheat flours were high in the order of OLF=WGF>MLF>ILF. On the other hand, WF showed a similar content to OLF in ash and protein, and to ILF in fats. Potassium and magnesium contents were higher in all the buckwheat powder than in the wheat flour. Flavonoid contents were higher in order of OLF>WGF=MLF> ILF, but it was not in wheat flour. Although the reliable correlation between mix ratio and components, i.e. mag nesium or ash analyzed were found, it did not seem to reflect sufficiently the expected variations of contents of original material components. Also, compositions of commercial buckwheat products were analyzed to evaluate the mixed ratio of buckwheat flour and wheat flour. The results suggest that the components analyzed in this study as putative marker were not good in determining whether or how much buckwheat products contained wheat flour.

Breadmaking is a complex system in which many variables govern the production of acceptable bread. Lipids, a minor component of wheat flour, function importantly in bread-making. Shortening, or fat, is one of the essential ingredients in commercial baking. Beneficial shortening effect depends on type and quantity of lipids present in wheat flour and also on wheat flour quality. Surfactants have been used in baking industry during last decade because certrain surfactants can replace shortening and/or natural flour lipids. A proper combination of lipidshortening-surfactant is more useful in the production of specialty breads such as whole wheat breads, high protein breads, high fiber breads or even non-wheat composite breads rather than in the production of regular white breads. This presentation is a review of recent studies on the contribution of flour lipids, shortening, and surfactants, alone or in combination in the production of breads; illustrations are mainly from data obtained in the author's laboratory.

The principal objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of the addition of sourdough to various grain flours in bread, specifically, in regards to the physicochemical characteristics of bread dough, sensory evaluation, and bread storage. As the incubation time of sourdough increased, the total titratable acidity increased. Viable yeast counts of sourdough increased consistently until the third day, while lactic acid bacteria counts increased until the second day. The weight of breads containing sourdough made with rye flour, strong flour, and Korean wheat flour were higher than that of the control. However, the height, volume, and specific volume of control were higher than those of the groups with sourdough made with various grain flours. The pH of breads containing sourdough was lower than that of the control, while the total titratable acidity and moisture content were higher than those of the control. In analyzing the visible mold colony during the five days of storage at $30^{\circ}C$, mold growth in breads containing sourdough made of Korean wheat flour, barely flour, and rye flour was retarded. In the color measurement, the L values of the control and bread containing sourdough made with barley flour were higher than that of the other groups after five days. The a value of bread containing sourdough made of rye flour was higher, and the b values of breads containing sourdough made of Korean wheat flour, barley flour and rye flour were higher than those of the other groups after five days. The hardness of breads containing sourdough increased as storage time increased, where as breads containing sourdough made of Korean wheat flour, Korean whole wheat flour, and rye flour revealed no significant differences with control group. Sensory evaluation scores in terms of after swallowing, taste, and overall preference of bread containing sourdough made of Korean wheat flour was higher than those of the control group.

The effects of phytase and cellulase treatment on the bioavailability of iron, calcium, and zinc in whole wheat flour and their food applications were evaluated in this study. Whole wheat flour was treated with phytase and cellulase either individually or in combination and incubated at 50℃ for 2 h; the concentrations used for the individual enzymes were 2%, 10%, and 20%. The concentration of the combination enzyme was 20% with a mixing ratio of 5:5. Total dietary fiber and phytate contents were reduced as the concentrations of phytase and cellulase increased. The bioavailability of iron, calcium, and zinc was notably improved after in vitro digestion in 20% cellulase, combination enzyme, and 20% phytase, respectively. Muffins made with cellulase- and phytase-treated whole wheat flour showed improved quality and bioavailability of minerals. Phytase- and cellulase-treated whole wheat flour may be useful for development of functional food products with improved bioavailability of minerals.

Whole grain wheat flour (WGWF) is the entire grain (bran, endosperm, and germ) milled to make flour. The WGWF of 31 Korean wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars were analyzed for the chemical compositions, and classified into groups by hierarchical cluster analysis (HCL). The average composition values showed a substantial variation among wheat varieties due to different wheat varieties. Wheat cv. Shinmichal1 (waxy wheat) had the highest ash, lipid, and total dietary fiber contents of 1.76, 3.14, and 15.49 g/100 g, respectively. Using HCL efficiently classified wheat cultivars into 7 clusters. Namhae, Sukang, Gobun, and Joeun contained higher protein values (12.88%) and dietary fiber (13.74 %). Regarding multi-trait crop breeding, the variation in chemical compositions found between the clusters might be attributed to wheat genotypes, which was an important factor in accumulating those chemicals in wheat grains. Thus, once wheat cultivars with agronomic characteristics were identified, those properties might be included in the breeding process to develop a new variety of wheat with the trait.

The study was to investigate the quality characteristics of American waffles substituted with 0, 25, 50, 75, and 100% of kamut whole wheat flour (KWF). The KWF samples had maintaining the specific gravity of the batter until the 25% substitution. The spreadability decreased as the ratio of the KWF increased, and the pH of the 100% substitution sample were the lowest. The KWF samples had increasing baking loss rates until the 75% substitution while decreasing the water activity. Lightness and yellowness significantly decreased with increasing the KWF while redness increased. Hardness, chewiness, and gumminess of the 25% substitution sample were the highest, while the springiness and resilience were maximum with the 100% substitution. The KWF samples had increasing overall acceptability, acceptability of color, flavor, and texture until the 50% substitution. The characteristics intensity rating of crust color, bran flavor, and sweetness increased with increasing the KWF. The KWF samples had significantly higher crispiness than the control group. The frequency of the bran flavor, sweetness, nuttiness, and unpleasant increased while the egg and milk flavor, and flour taste decreased. These results suggest that the substitution of the 25~50% KWF could be the optimal to improve the quality characteristics of American waffles.

Flour characteristics and end-use quality of 10 commercial flours produced from Korean wheat (Kcom) were evaluated to assess consumersatisfaction with Korean wheat compared with commercial flour (Com) prepared from imported wheats. Two types of Kcom, whole wheatflour and white wheat flour, were found in various markets. Whole wheat flours showed higher ash and protein content, lower lightness, and higher water absorption in mixography, than did white wheat flours. The amylose content of Kcom was similar to that of Com, but peak viscosity and breakdown of Kcom were lower than those of Com. Noodle dough sheet prepared from white flours of Kcom was thinner and lighter than dough sheets prepared using whole wheat flours. Compared to Com, Kcom showed lower noodle dough sheet lightness. The hardness of cooked noodles prepared with Kcom was similar to that of noodles made from Com. When used for bread baking, Kcom showed lower loaf volume, lower crumb lightness, and higher crumb firmness, than did Com.

Quality characteristics of mash of takju prepared by wheat flour nuruks (conventional and improved style) were investigated during fermentation. Those were cultured with wild microorganism on whole and crushed wheat (wheat nuruk), wheat flour and mixture of rice and wheat flour, and nuruk cultured with Aspergillus oryzae on wheat flour. Ethanol content reached maximum of 10.6-17.4% after 14 days of fermentation. And the ethanol contents of takju were high in order of wheat nuruk, wheat flour nuruk, Aspergillus oryzae nuruk and mixture of wheat flour and rice nuruk. No difference of pH was among the treatments while the wheat flour nuruk cultured with wild microorganisms contained higher amounts of acids than the others. The amount of total sugars ranged from 16.22-17.74% on the starting day of fermentation, and decreased to 4.28-6.10% after 14 days. The amount of total sugars in mashes brewed with wheat flour nuruk cultured with Aspergillus oryzae was measured to be highest at the beginning stage of fermentation. Afterwards no difference was found among the types of nuruks. Glucose was in the range of 2,735-7,842 mg% at initial period of fermentation, afterwards it was rapidly decreased. The total amounts of free sugar for control and the wheat flour nuruk was higher than other treatments. The total amounts of organic acids were the highest in wheat nuruk to 690-2,241 mg% and the contents of lactic acid and succinic acid were high in mixed rice nuruk to 183-1,293 mg%. The contents of lactic acid and succinic acid were higher than those of the other kinds of organic acids in takju.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of substituting whole barley flours on quality characteristics of noodles. Noodles were made with composite flour containing 20% whole barley flour of various hullless barley cultivars and the quality characteristics, ${\beta}$-glucan content and antioxidant characteristics were investigated. In amylogram characteristics, the initial pasting temperature and peak viscosity were increased, and setback was decreased in complex flour. Noodles containing barley flour had low lightness, yellowness and high redness compare to wheat noodle. Water absorption of cooked noodles was lower than wheat noodle. The value of swelling index was high in noodles containing non-waxy barley flour and low in noodles containing waxy barley flour. Hardness and gumminess of noodles were lower than wheat noodle. Noodles containing non-waxy barley had higher hardness, cohesiveness and gumminess than noodles containing waxy barley flour. Dahan, non-waxy barley cultivar showed similar characteristics with the wheat noodle. ${\beta}$-Glucan content and antioxidant activity were increased with adding barley flour. Cooked noodle had slightly high ${\beta}$-glucan content, low starch content and low antioxidant activity compared to value of uncooked noodle.

In order to investigate the extending effects on urea-formaldehyde resin- or phenol- formal- dehyde resin- glued keruing plywood, hot pressing temperatures were controlled to 110, 140, 170 and $200^{\circ}C$. As the extender, wheat flour, persimmon bark powder, chestnut bark powder, the equivalently- extended with the above three powders, and diatomite powder were respectively mixed with 5, 10, 15 and 20% ratios to the resin liquid, and also with these the no- extended was allowed. Based on the measured bonding strength, the conclusions were drawn: 1. In the urea- formaldehyde resin, extending effects on the bonding strength were in the order of wheat flour, the equivalently- extended with the wheat flour, persimmon- and chestnut bark powder, persimmon bark powder, chestnut bark powder. In the phenol- formaldehyde resin, the effects in the order of wheat flour, persimmon bark powder, diatomite powder, chestnut bark powder were resulted in. Specifically, superior bonding strength to the no-extended were given with the wheat flour and persimmon bark powder. 2. On the whole, the bonding strength decreased gradually, as the hot pressing temperature increased except for the diatomite powder extending.
