This study was conducted to evaluate the growth of lactic acid bacteria and quality characteristics of Baechu kimchi prepared with four types of salt (Solar salt, Flower salt, Hanju salt, and Roasted salt) at two different concentrations (10, 15%) during storage. The quality characteristics of kimchi were examined by investigating acid production, growth of lactic acid bacteria, sensory properties, salinity, texture, and color characteristics. Baechu kimchi was fermented for 18 days at $10^{\circ}C$. The pH and total acidity did not change during storage according to type and concentration of salt. Growth of lactic acid bacteria was not affected by type of salt, whereas it was inhibited at 15% salt concentration after 9 days of fermentation. In the quantitative descriptive analysis of sensory properties, kimchi prepared with 10% salt showed significantly higher scores in term of overall acceptability (p<0.05). Meanwhile, there was no significant difference by type of salt. For texture characteristics, hardness of kimchi prepared with 10% salt was significantly higher than that with 20% salt. For color characteristics, L value (brightness) and b values (yellowness) of kimchi prepared with 10% salt increased during fermentation, whereas a value (redness) did not change by type and concentration of salt. The results of this study show that there were no considerable differences in quality characteristics of Baechu kimchi prepared with various types and concentrations of salt. However, Solar salt resulted in more favorable sensory properties and salinity of kimchi than any other types. Further, kimchi prepared with 10% salt showed significantly higher scores in terms of overall acceptability, growth of lactic acid bacteria, salinity, texture, and color characteristics.

The storage stability of Instant Ramyon by industrially prepared with palm, beef tallow and blended rapeseed oils for frying oil was studied. The products was stored under fluorescent light at $60^{\circ}C$ with illumination of 9,000 lux. Changes of peroxide value, total carbonyl value, and absorbance at 232 nm of lipids extracted from Ramyon were investigated during storage. The storage stability of Ramyon prepared with oils containing TBHQ had better than that prepared with a mixture of BHA and BHT. The Ramyon prepared with 4 part of rapeseed oil to 6 part of tallow containing 0.02% BHA/BHT showed higher storage stability than that prepared with palm oil alone but showed lower stability than that prepared with tallow alone both under the same condition of antioxidant treatment.

Quality characteristics of Yaksik prepared with glutinuous rice soaked for different time lengths were investigated. Moisture contents increased with the increment of soaking time. In Hunter's color value, the lightness decreased and redness and yellowness increased by the increment of soaking time. Samples prepared with a commercial formula showed increased red and yellow colors due to the addition of caramel sauce. The firmness decreased with the increment of soaking time during storage. However, the samples prepared with 2 hr-soaking were retrograded rapidly. In peroxide value, there were no differences among samples. In microbiological evaluation, samples prepared with a commercial formula had prolonged shelf lives probably due to the preservatives contained. Samples prepared with 6 hr-soaking showed the highest score in sensory evaluation.

Physicochemical and consumer acceptance properties of bread baking prepared with 100% domestic and imported flour and mixtures of the two flours by 50% to 50% were investigated in this study. Quality changes of the breads during storage at $1^{\circ}C$ were also evaluated. Volume of bread made of the mixtures of flour showed significantly higher values than the other two samples. Hardness of bread made with domestic flour had significantly higher value than that of control on the first day of storage at $4^{\circ}C$. However, mixture sample showed significantly higher value than that of control after the third day of storage. Consumer acceptance test indicated that the bread prepared with 50% imported and 50% domestic flour were not significantly different from the bread prepared with 100% imported flour.

Composite films were prepared with soy protein isolate (SPI) and various clay minerals by casting from polymer and clay water suspension. Effects of clay minerals on film thickness, moisture content (MC), tensile strength (TS), elongation at break (E), water vapor permeability (WVP), and water solubility (WS) were tested. Properties including thickness, surface smoothness, and homogeneity of films prepared with organically modified montmorillonite (O-MMT), Wamok clay (W-clay), bentonite, talc powder, and zeolite were comparable to those of control SPI films. TS increased significantly (p<0.05) in films prepared with O-MMT and bentonite, while WVP decreased significantly (p<0.05) in bentonite-added films. WS of most nanocomposite films decreased significantly (p<0.05).

To prepare soybean curds, the concentration of $CaCl_2,\;MgCl_2,\;CaSO_4$ and glucono-%{\delta}$-lactone fresh solution as coagulants were determined by transmittance of whey using spectrophotometer. The concentrations of four coagulants at which the transmittance had the highest value were chosen. Moisture content, yield and protein recovery of soybean curds prepared with four coagulants were investigated. The textural properties were examined by Instron Universal Testing Machine, and sensory evaluation was carried out. The microstructure of soybean curds was examined by SEM. Soybean curds obtained with $CaCl_2\;and\;MgCl_2$ were hard and coarse, and had roasted nutty taste, whereas those with $CaSO_4$ and GDL revealed very smooth, soft and uniform. Soybean curd prepared with GDL had the lowest acceptability because of sour taste. The texture and acceptability of soybean curds were influenced by the type of coagulant.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics of macaroons prepared using natural color materials (Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten (Re-N), mulberry leaf (Gr-N), pumpkin (Ye-N), and cocoa powder (Br-N)) and corresponding artificial food colorants (red (Re-A), yellow (Ye-A), green (Gr-A) and brown (Br-A)). The moisture content of macaroons prepared using natural color material was higher compared to the macaroons prepared using artificial food colorant. DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity was similar in both types of macaroons. Lightness and redness of Re-N, Gr-N, Ye-N, and Br-N macaroons were lower than Re-A, Gr-A, Ye-A and Br-A macaroons. Yellowness of Re-N was higher because of the browning reaction. The texture profile analysis revealed lower hardness when natural color powder was employed. In the sensory evaluation, overall acceptability was not significantly different between natural colored and artificial colored macaroons. As a result, macaroons with the natural color material were softer and showed higher antioxidative activity, however, organoleptic properties were not much different when compared with macaroons with artificial colors. Apparently, it is stated that more studies on the development of macaroons with more enhanced physical functionality and good taste using natural materials should be performed.

Perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) are linked to adverse effect on human healths, therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the levels of PFCs in prepared food. One hundred and fifty-one samples of six prepared food groups were purchased from retail food establishments in Korea. Twelve PFCs were detected in the sample, the accuracy ranged between 80.8-119.4% and precision ranged between 2.2-2.89% high and low concentrations in PFCs spiked samples. The detection frequency of perfluoro-pentanoic acid (PFPeA) was and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) above the limit of detection, which was 84.1 and 82.8%, respectively, but positive detection frequency of perfluorooctanesulphonic acid (PFOS) was as shown as low as 29.1%. Residual PFOA levels in most of the samples were higher than the PFOS levels. The average concentration of total PFCs in the samples was $1.68{\pm}1.79ng/g$, and PFPeA and PFOA were the predominant PFCs.
