Effect of temperature on Kakdugi during fermentation was investigated by measuring sensory, physicochemical and microbiological, properties up to 57 days. The diced(2.5$\times$2.5$\times$2.5cm) Chinese radishes(Ra-phanus sativus L.) with other ingredients were fermented under the different temperatures. Kakdugi were stored at 4$^{\circ}C$ after keeping at 2$0^{\circ}C$ for 12 hours(treatment E) from initial fermentation to the end at each temperature on preparation. The pH was decreased to the range of 4.14~4.29 in the initial of pH 5.8, and total acidity was increased 2~4 times more than that of in the initial period (0.24%). And the changes of treatment A, B, and C were nearly constant up to 57 days in the range of 0.80~0.88% (pH 4.1). The changes of vitamin C showed sigmoidal curve, increasing significantly in the palatable period after decreasing gradually in the initial period. The content of vitamin C in treatment E was rapidly decreased, but that of treatment C was kept high content up to 57days. the number of lactic acid bacteria was remarkably increased in palatable period and was gradually decreased thereafter. The scores of aroma, taste, overall acceptability in sensory evaluation during the fermentation was high in order of treatment E, C, D, B and A. The scores of sensory evaluation treatment D and E during fermentation was rapidly decreased, however, treatment A, B and C were maintained. Changes of lactic acid bacteria, and sensory properties, among treatment A, B and C which kept a good quality up to 57 days, had high scores of sensory evaluation, abundant vitamin C in the palatable period. The result showed that Kakdugi fermented at 4$^{\circ}C$ after keeping at 2$0^{\circ}C$ for 36 hours had better taste and quality than those of other treatments.

Application of intense pulsed light (IPL) treatment is an emerging technology with interesting prospects in food preservation. However, information concerning the factors affecting the inactivation of microorganisms and their impact on the quality of fresh-cut food is scarce. In this study, the effects of IPL treatment on the microbial inactivation and physicochemical change in paprika were determined. The viability of bacteria in paprika treated with IPL decreased slightly with the treatment time. In addition, water content was slightly decreased after IPL treatment regardless of the color of paprika. However, except in red paprika, sugar content increased after IPL treatment. The pH of paprika increased in all samples, and the polyphenol content decreased with treatment time, but these differences were very small. After IPL treatment of paprika, vitamin C content increased in yellow and red samples. Hunter color values-lightness (L), redness (a), and yellowness (b)-increased in red paprika, but all values decreased in orange paprika.

In the food industry, thermal treatment is an important process for extending shelf-life of foods. However, heating process affects the physicochemical, nutritional, and microbial properties of foodstuff such as color, texture, pH, and proximate compositions. This study was conducted to select an optimal thermal treatment by observing physicochemical, nutritional, and microbial effects of shiitake mushrooms with different thermal treatment methods. Shiitake mushrooms were washed and sliced equally ($5cm{\times}0.5cm{\times}0.5cm$) and then heat-treated by three methods. Samples were heated in $100^{\circ}C$ boiling water, steamed for 10 min, or pan fried at $130^{\circ}C$ for 4 min. Total color difference values showed significantly increasing tendency with treatment time. For pH values, boiling water-treated mushrooms showed increasing tendency according to increased thermal treatment. For the results of hardness, boiling water or pan frying-treated mushrooms showed reduced tendency within 1 min. In the case of steam-treated mushrooms, hardness values were maintained for 1 min. Organic acid contents of steam-treated sample showed the lowest value among treatments. For microbial counts, steam-treated samples for 3 min showed the lowest value. Consequently, the results of this study suggest that steam treatment could be the optimal thermal treatment to minimize quality loss of shiitake mushrooms.

In this study, the biological activities and physicochemical properties of polysaccharides from Gloiopeltis furcata were investigated. Polysaccharides were isolated by enzymes treatment (celluclast, flavourzyme, papain, termamyl, viscozyme) followed by ethanol precipitation and lyophilization. The yield of polysaccharides by enzymes treatment group were 52.8-66.4%. The major constituents in viscozyme treatment group were total sugar (71.04%), protein (7.22%), uronic acid (23.18 g/100 g), and sulfate (28.27%), respectively. The DPPH radical scavenging activity and ferric reducing antioxidant potential of the viscozyme treatment group at 5 mg/mL were 23.10% and $218.50{\mu}M$, respectively. The protective effects against $H_2O_2$-induced cytotoxicity in L132 cell of viscozyme treatment group at $1{\mu}g/mL$ was 85.64%. The viscozyme treatment group increased the production of nitric oxide (NO) in a dose-dependent manner. The antitumor activity of viscozyme treatment group (at $25{\mu}g/mL$) in A549, HeLa, SNU719 and MCF7 was 69.57%, 52.74%, 61.06% and 68.64%, respectively. All of data showed that the biological activities and chemical characteristics of enzymes treatment group are higher than that of the control group. The polysaccharides isolated from Gloiopeltis furcata investigated herein are useful as functional materials agents.

Effect of the cellulase treatment on the physicochemical properties of three varieties of rice (chucheongbyeo, chosengtongilbyeo and IR 36) and the texture of cooked rice were investigated. The swelling power and solubility of the rice flours were increased and amylographic viscosities, especially cold viscosities were decreased by cellulase treatment in all varieties. Gel chromatography of soluble carbohydrates from cellulase-treated rice flours on sepharose 2B-CL showed a singificant increase of low molecular weight $(10^{4})$ fraction which might be produced upon hydrolysis in endosperm cell wall constituents. The hardness of cooked rices prepared from cellulose-treated rices significantly decreased.

The establishment of optimal producing condition for rice-based infant foods using modified rice powder was attempted. The modification of rice powder was prepared by microwave heating as well as partial enzymatic hydrolysis. Not only thermal treatment but also enzymatic hydrolysis on rice powder increased D.E. value from 1.25 to 3.81. The water binding capacity, swelling power, solubility, digestibility by ${\alpha}-amylase$, light transparency, and paste clarity of the modified rice powder compared to unmodified rice powder were increased from 107% to 249%, from 7.80 to 42.52, from 0.04% to 0.89ft, from 9.19% to 23.01, from 33% to 42%, and from 2.2% to 3.9%, respectively. On the other hand, gelatinization temperature, apparent viscosity, and degree of retrogradation of modified rice powder showed negative correlation with D.E. value. The 「results suggested that the thermal and enzymatic treatment on rice powder improved the physicochemical properties of rice based infant food by enhancing carbohydrate absorptionability and lowering the viscosity and opacity.

The hybrid method of three-dimensional ion implantation and electric arc is presented as a novel plasma-ion technique that allows by means of high voltage pulsed and electric arc discharges, the bombardment of non-metallic and metallic ions then implanting upon the surface of a solid surface, especially out of metallic nature. In this study AISI/SAE 4140 samples, a tool type steel broadly used in the industry due to its acceptable physicochemical properties, were metallographically prepared then surface modified by implanting titanium and simultaneously titanium and nitrogen particles during 5 min and 10 min. The effect of the ion implantation technique over the substrate surface was analysed by characterization and electrochemical techniques. From the results, the formation of Ti micro-droplets upon the surface after the implantation treatment were observed by micrographs obtained by scanning electron microscopy. The presence of doping particles on the implanted substrates were detected by elemental analysis. The linear polarization resistance, potentiodynamic polarization and total porosity analysis demonstrated that the samples whose implantation treatment with Ti ions for 10 min, offer a better protection against the corrosion compared with non-implanted substrates and implanted at the different conditions in this study.

This study was performed to quantitatively and qualitatively estimate the effect of keratin essence on hair protection against physicochemical damage. Damaged hairs were obtained from an early thirty woman who dyed her hair two times and did digital permanent treatment of her hair two times. The damaged hairs were divided into four experimental groups, which are the control hair (CH) group without additional beauty treatment, the damaged hair (DH) group by additional dyeing treatment, basic essence-treated hair (BEH) group, and keratin essence-treated hair (KEH) groups according to the research goal. The protection effect of keratin essence against the physicochemical damage was quantitatively compared by difference of chrominance measured using a color difference meter and qualitatively compared by difference of outer morphological structure images pictured using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The brightness and yellowish blue color of KEH were relatively lower but the reddish blue color was relatively higher than other groups of test hairs. Cuticle structure of the previously DH was irregularly deformed and more strongly deformed or partially broken by additional dyeing treatment. On the other hand, the gaps between cuticle scales of the DH were reformed by treatment with basic essence and reformed and filled by treatment with keratin essence in comparison with the DH group. Conclusively, the keratin essence was effective to protect hair structure against the structural damage induced by the dyeing-treatment, by which the coloring efficiency is thought to be improved.

This study analyzed the microbiological (Lactobacillus spp., Staphylococcus spp., mold, yeast, aerobic bacteria) and physicochemical properties [pH, salinity, water activity, volatile basic nitrogen (VBN), and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances]. The starters were used by mixing Debaryomyces hansenii separated from Korean Doenjang (D) and fermented sausage (S). The starter was inoculated with dry-cured ham and aged for 6 weeks at 20℃ and 25℃, respectively. The aerobic bacteria, Lactobacillus spp., and Staphylococcus spp. of D, S, and DS treatment showed significantly higher values at 25℃ than at 20℃. Among them, S25 treatment showed a high tendency. At week 6, the mold of the S25 treatment was significantly higher than the S20 treatment, and the yeast was higher in 25℃ than 20℃ (p<0.05). The pH of all treatment groups increased with the aging period. Compared with that at 25℃, the pH was significantly higher at 20℃ (p<0.05). The water activity showed a significant decrease as the aging period increased, and the treatment of D25, S20, and DS20 showed a significantly higher value at week 6 (p<0.05). Compared with that at 20℃, the VBN content was higher at 25℃. At week 6, the VBN contents of the C20, S25, and DS25 groups were higher than those of the other treatment groups. Therefore, inoculation of D. hansenii separated from fermented sausage produced in Korean starter at 25℃ is expected to improve the safety of harmful microorganisms and physiochemical properties in dry-cured ham.
