In this study, the nutritional and storage quality of meatballs formulated with different levels (0, 1.5, 3.0, 4.5 and 6.0%) of bee pollen were investigated during storage at $41^{\circ}C$ for 9 d. Protein content of meatballs increased, while moisture content decreased with increased pollen. The addition of pollen improved cooking loss but decreased the redness (Hunter a value) and sensory scores. Textural parameters (hardness, springsness, gumminess, and chewiness) were affected by pollen addition and the hardness and gumminess values of meatballs decreased as the pollen content increased. While C18:0 content of meatballs slightly decreased with pollen addition, C18:2n-6c, C18:3n-3, C20:5n-3, and PUFA contents increased. The PUFA/saturated fatty acids (P/S) ratio increased from 0.05 in the control to 0.09 in meatballs with 6.0% pollen. The n-6/n-3 ratio decreased from 11.84 in the control to 3.65 in the meatballs with 6.0% pollen. The addition of pollen retarded the lipid oxidation and inhibited the bacterial growth in meatballs. The pH, redness, TBA value and total aerobic mesophilic bacteria, coliform bacteria and S. aureus counts values changed significantly during storage. The results suggest that bee pollen could be added to enhance the nutritional and storage quality of meatballs with minimal changes in composition and/or sensory properties.

This study was designed to investigate the possible utilization of mugwort as a source of functional ingredients. The approximate composition for mugwort powder was 5.06% moisture, 1.98% crude protein, 4.65% crude fat, 5.85% ash and 82.46% carbohydrate. The highest mineral content was potassium. The contents of total phenolic compounds and condensed tannin were 114 mg% and 11,000 mg%, respectively. The highest electron donating ability(EDA) was observed from the ethyl acetate and butanol fractions of mugwort powder but the lowest was shown by the hexane fraction. In color values, with increasing mugwort powder content, the 'lightness', 'redness' and 'yellowness' decreased in the crust, while in the crumb bread the 'lightness' decreased and the 'redness', and 'yellowness' increased. With the addition of mugwort powder as a substitute for strong flour over the range from 2.5% to 10.0%, the ratio of the volume and specific volume of white bread decreased while its weight increased. In the texture measurements for white breads, the hardness decreased slightly with the addition of 2.5% mugwort powder, but then increased with further additions of mugwort up to 10.0%. The addition of 2.5% mugwort powder increased the springiness and gumminess of white bread. The highest sensory scores for color, flavor, taste, texture and overall acceptance as evaluated by a student sensory panel were obtained from white bread with 2.5% mugwort powder and from the control. The highest sensory scores as evaluated by a baker sensory panel were obtained from white bread with 2.5% mugwort powder. In ranking test, overall acceptability of white bread was the highest in the control. Overall acceptance scores by sensory evaluation of white bread with 2.5% mugwort powder were not significantly different from those of control.

This is the basic study on the extraction characteristics of Omija (Schizandra chinensis) for juices of Korean traditional foods. Extraction is being performed as 25 times of the solvent ratio at room temperature and at $65^{\circ}C$ with deionized water, tap water and Cheong-song mineral water which have high contents of Ca and Mg. The overall good results of the extraction conditions are calculated from the values of L (Lightness), redness (a), yellowness (b), soluble solids content, acidity, pH levels and the DPPH radical scavenging activity by using the electron donating ability (EDA). The results are as follows: 12 hours of room temperature and 6 hours at $65^{\circ}C$ were good extraction times. The Cheong-song mineral water at $65^{\circ}C$ is available for rapid extractions when compared to deionized water and tap water. A longer extraction time shows lower values of acidity but increasing values of soluble solids content and DPPH radical scavenging activity when using the electron donating ability. The best sequences for the extractions are Cheong-song mineral water followed by tap water and distilled water after overall consideration.

The loquat (Eriobotrya japonica) is a plant belonging to the Rosaceae family, native to south-central China. It is cultivated in relatively warm areas such as Spain, Japan and South Korea. It is used commercially as an ornamental plant and for its yellow fruit, which contains much carotenoid, sugar and a little organic acid. In this study, chiffon cakes were prepared with the addition of 3%, 6%, 9% and 12% loquat fruit powder (LFP) in order to invest the mixing conditions. When more LFP was added to the dough, the pH level of the dough became lower. Specific gravity and viscosity of the dough significantly increased as higher amounts of LFP were added. In baked cakes, the weight and baking loss rate of LFP were not significantly different between samples, and the height of the risen test samples were lower than that of the controls. Moisture content was 33.58% in the 12% LFP sample (12% LFPS), which was the highest of all the samples. With respect to crust color, lightness, redness and, yellowness, these significantly decreased as the amount of LFP was increased, the 12% LFP being the lowest of all the samples. Lightness and yellowness of crumbs significantly decreased as the amount of LFP was increased, whereas redness showed the reverse effect. When looking at hardness and adhesiveness, the 12% LFPS was the highest of all the samples, nevertheless a difference in resilience was not significant among the samples. According to consumer perception, bitterness was significantly increased as amounts of LFP increased, however a difference in salty, astringency and oily tastes were not significant among the samples. The 12% LFPS showed the lowest score with respect to softness and overall acceptability. In conclusion, LFP could be considered a functional material, with the optimum amount of LFP for a chiffon cake of 3~9%.

To determine the effects of grape skin and seed pomace (GSP) additions on the lipid oxidation susceptibility and the color change of cooked pork sausages, the chemical characteristics of GSP itself and the addition for two different levels of GSP (0.5 and 1.0% GSP, respectively) to sausages were examined. Both the redness and blueness of the GSP were significantly reduced as the pH level was increased from 5 to 7, but a reverse result was determined in the color tint and yellowness (p<0.05). The GSP polyphenol and flavonoid contents were influenced by the percentages of methanol solvents, and more flavonoids were established when 100% of methanol was applied as a solvent to the GSP. But, similar results were not observed in the polyphenol of GSP. In cooked pork sausages, significant decreases in the lightness and redness were found in both the 0.5% and 1.0% of GSP sausages during the storage period (p<0.05). However, an incompatible effect was observed in terms of yellowness, which increased as compared to the control sausage after 6 days of storage. The 0.5% addition of GSP decreased the levels of TBARS (p<0.05), but the ability of GSP to minimize lipid oxidation was not dose dependent. Therefore, the results indicated that the GSP is an efficient suppressor of lipid oxidation and has latent effects as a natural antioxidant when 0.5% of GSP is added to the cooked pork sausages.

This study was conducted to determine the relationships of five intragenic single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers (protein kinase adenosine monophosphate-activated ${\gamma}3$ subunit [PRKAG3], fatty acid synthase [FASN], calpastatin [CAST], high mobility group AT-hook 1 [HMGA1], and melanocortin-4 receptor [MC4R]) and meat quality traits of Duroc breeding stocks in Korea. A total of 200 purebred Duroc gilts from 8 sires and 40 dams at 4 pig breeding farms from 2010 to 2011 reaching market weight (110 kg) were slaughtered and their carcasses were chilled overnight. Longissimus dorsi muscles were removed from the carcass after 24 h of slaughter and used to determine pork properties including carcass weight, backfat thickness, moisture, intramuscular fat, $pH_{24h}$, shear force, redness, texture, and fatty acid composition. The PRKAG3, FASN, CAST, and MC4R gene SNPs were significantly associated with the meat quality traits (p<0.003). The meats of PRKAG3 (A 0.024/G 0.976) AA genotype had higher pH, redness and texture than those from PRKAG3 GG genotype. Meats of FASN (C 0.301/A 0.699) AA genotype had higher backfat thickness, texture, stearic acid, oleic acid and polyunsaturated fatty acid than FASN CC genotype. While the carcasses of CAST (A 0.373/G 0.627) AA genotype had thicker backfat, and lower shear force, palmitoleic acid and oleic acid content, they had higher stearic acid content than those from the CAST GG genotype. The MC4R (G 0.208/A 0.792) AA genotype were involved in increasing backfat thickness, carcass weight, moisture and saturated fatty acid content, and decreasing unsaturated fatty acid content in Duroc meat. These results indicated that the five SNP markers tested can be a help to select Duroc breed to improve carcass and meat quality properties in crossbred pigs.

To evaluate the effect of pomegranate powder on rice dasik, pomegranate dasik was prepared after supplementation with pomegranate powder(0, 5, 10, 15 and 20%(all w/w)). The proximate components of pomegranate powder was 9.98% moisture content, 1.54% crude protein, 3.50% crude lipid, 16.00% crude fiber and 4.84% crude ash. The moisture content of samples showed no significant difference. The pH values in samples with the pomegranate powder were lower than that of the control group and pH values were significantly decreased with increased pomegranate powder(p<0.05). The lightness(L-value) was significantly decreased as pomegranate powder increased(p<0.05). Redness(a-value) was increased as pomegranate powder increased until 10%. However redness was decreased in samples with more than 15% pomegranate powder. The yellowness(b-value) decreased significantly with the amount of increased pomegranate powder(p<0.05). In the mechanical evaluation, hardness in the groups with pomegranate powder decreased significantly (p<0.05). Adhesiveness was decreased with increased pomegranate powder. Springness in groups with more than 15% pomegranate powder was higher than that of the control group. Cohesiveness and chewiness in groups with pomegranate powder were higher than that of the control group. But no significant difference in gumminess among groups was found. The intensity of color, odor and astringency of dasik with pomegranate powder significantly increased as the amount of supplementation increased(p<0.05). And the preference of taste and overall acceptability significantly increased as pomegranate powder increased(p<0.05). In conclusion, rice disik with 5% of pomegranate powder would be most proper in taste and overall acceptability.
