Potatoes were first introduced outside the Andes region four centuries ago, and have become an integral part of much of the world's food. Potatoes were first introduced into Europe in the 16th century and Korea in the early 19th century. It is the world's fourth-largest crop, following rice, wheat, and maize. In the nutritional aspects, potatoes contain abundant vitamins and minerals, as well as an assortment of phytochemicals such as carotenoids and natural phenols. Chlorogenic acid constitutes up to 90% of potato natural phenols. Due to the high content of potato functional compounds, it has known that potatoes are effective in the prevention of various human diseases. Recently, potato 'Seohong' was developed by RDA, and it has reported that they have a high-yield and dry matter content. Processing industry of potato generates high amounts of peel as a byproduct. It was reported as a good source of several beneficial functional ingredients including antioxidant effect. This study was conducted to enhance the utilization of the peel of Potato 'Seohong'. The anti-inflammatory effects on solvent fraction was evaluated. The anti-inflammatory activities of Ethylacetate fraction was evaluated for inhibitory activities against lipopolysacchride (LPS) induced nitric oxide (NO) in RAW264.7 cell lines. The fraction inhibitory activity for tests with $IC_{50}$ values showed in the ranges of $50{\mu}g/ml$. This result revealed that n-butanol fraction of 'Seohong's peel is expected to be good candidate for development into source of anti-inflammatory agent.

This study was conducted to improve functionality and nutrition for the utilization of ginseng. Ginseng powder pellets containing various moisture contents (1%, 4%, 7% or 10%) were prepared and mixed with rice as 1:1 (w/w). Then, samples were puffed at 180, 190, 200, 210 or 220℃. The puffed ginseng snacks were analyzed for appearance, color, hardness, specific volume and principal component analysis. For appearance analysis, when snack samples containing ginseng pellets with moisture content of 7% or higher were puffed at 200℃, they showed unbroken round shape. For color analysis, the values of L* and a* tended to increase as the moisture content of pellet and puffing temperature increased. As the water content of pellet and the pumping temperature increased, the specific volume of the puffed ginseng snack increased, while the hardness of the sample decreased. In conclusion, all results supposed that the processing conditions including moisture of pellet and puffing temperature had influenced on the physicochemical properties of puffed ginseng snack.

Six kinds of sunsik containing different contents of brown rice(BR; 20, 30, and 50%) were prepared and subjected to various processing conditions(with or without roasting at $200^{\circ}C$ for 20 min e.g., designated as RBR50 or BR50) to assess their functionality as ready-to-eat foods. They were also assessed for their nutritional and sensory properties and oxidative stability. Dietary fiber contents were proportionate to the levels of added BR. Protein was highest in RBR50 (p<0.001), which also had the highest amounts of free and structural amino acids. The amount of free amino acids tended to increase with roasting, although most amino acids were present in structural form. Oleic acid and linoleic acid were the predominant fatty acids in all prepared sunsik, and RBR50 presented noticeably higher peroxidability index due to its higher amount of linoleic acid(p<0.05). Nevertheless, RBR50 showed good oxidative stability; this phenomenon was observed in all sunsik with roasted BR but not in those with non-roasted BR. It is implied that potential antioxidants might have been newly formed or converted from their precursors while BR was roasted. Roasting process also had an impact on the sensory properties of sunsik, e.g., sunsik with added roasted BR showed lower dissolution and darker color intensity compared to its counterpart sunsik.

Oryza grandiglumis (CCDD, 2n=48), one of the wild rice species, has been known to possess fungal-,bacterial-, and insect-resistance against sheath blight, rice blast, bacterial leaf blight and brown plant hopper (Nilaparvata lugens). To rapidly isolate differentially expressed genes responding to fungal and wounding stress, wounding and yeast extract were treated to O. grandiglumis for 24 hrs. Suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) method was used to obtain differentially expressed genes from yeast extract and wounding treated plants. Seven hundreds and seventy six clones were obtained by subcloning PCR product, and colony array and screening were carried out using radio-isotope labeled cDNA probes prepared from the wounding and yeast extract treated plants. One hundred and fifteen colonies were confirmed as true positive ones. Average insert size of the clones were ranged from 400 bp to 700 bp and all the inserts were sequenced. To decide the identity of those clones, sequences were analyzed by sequence homology via GenBank database. The homology search result showed that 68 clones were matched to the genes with known function; 16 were related to primary metabolism, 5 to plant retrotransposons, 5 to defense related metallothionein-like genes. In addition to that, others were matched to various genes with known function in amino acid synthesis and processing, membrane transport, and signal transduction, so on. In northern blot analysis, induced expressions of ogwfi-161, ogwfi-646, ogwfi-663, and ogwfi-695 by wounding and yeast extract treatments were confirmed. The result indicates that SSH method is very efficient for rapid screening of differentially expressed genes.

The growth rate and heat resistance of two types of Bacillus cereus isolated from cooked rice were observed. The FB-1 strain showed positive to haemolysis and negative to starch hydrolysis, but FB-2 strain positive to both reaction. The cell number of B. cereus FB-1 reached to more than $10^7\;cells/ml$ within 6 to 12 hours at $25{\sim}35^{\circ}C$ when cultured on the medium of cooked rice homogenate (cooked rice 30g-phosphate buffer solution 80 ml), but the numbers at its maximum growth were only $10^4{\sim}10^6\;cells/ml$ at $45{\sim}55^{\circ}C$. The specific growth rate of FB-1 strain were $0.82hr^{-1}\;at\;20^{\circ}C$, $1.76hr^{-1}\;at\;30^{\circ}C$, $2.21hr^{-1}\;at\;35^{\circ}C$ and $1.84hr^{-1}\;at\;40^{\circ}C$, respectively. D-values of FB-1 and FB-2 spores at $70{\sim}100^{\circ}C$ were in the range from 18 to 3.1 min and 23.5 to 3.7 min, respectively.

The quality characteristics of Goami by-product under the mixed enzyme treatment condition of $\alpha$-amylase and cellulase have been compared, and found the highest amount of soluble solids and reducing sugars at the $\alpha$-amylase treated group (A), and the contents revealed to show gradual decrease with the increase of cellulase content. The amounts of total dietary fiber and total sugars did not show large difference by both of enzyme concentration. The result of sugar analysis revealed the presence of all $G{\sim}G5$ in all treatment groups, and the content of malto-oligosaccharide recorded the highest content of 2,200 mg% at the $\alpha$-amylase treatment group (A). When the quality characteristic of the hydrolyzed powders manufactured by the optimum hydrolysis condition was compared, no significant color difference was found between samples. Among the contents of dietary fibers, insoluble dietary fiber was found to present in the lowest content of 6.95% at the Goami flour (GF) and the Goami by-product powder (GBPP) and Goami by-product hydrolysate powder (GBPHP) resulted the similar content around 14% and the highest soluble dietary fibers content was found in Goami by-product hydrolysate powder (GBPHP), which was followed by in the order of Goami by-product powder (GBPP) and Goami flour (GF), but the content variation was not large. The free amino acid was found to be highest in Goami by-product hydrolysate powder (GBPHP) followed by in the order of Goami by-product powder (GBPP) and Goami flour (GF). In the sugar analysis, the Goami by-product hydrolysate powder (GBPHP) was found with all $G{\sim}G5$ sugars by showing the highest amount of 1,800 mg% At the Goami by-product powder (GBPP), $G{\sim}G2$ sugars were detected with about 66 mg% and malto-oligosaccharides were not detected at the Goami flour (GF). Based upon the results, the functionality of Goami by-product hydrolysate powder (GBPHP) was found to be enforced compared to Goami flour (GF) and Goami by-product powder (GBPP), which allow us to expect it to be used as the various rice processing food source.

Brown rice vinegars were prepared by agitated or static acetic acid fermentation using different yeast strains (Saccharomyces kluyveri DJ97, Saccharomyces cerevisiae JK99, Saccharomyces cerevisiae GRJ, or Saccharomyces cerevisiae H9). Organic acid contents and levels of volatile compounds were compared in vinegars prepared by different methods. The chosen yeast strain did not significantly affect the organic acid content of vinegar. In vinegars prepared by agitated acetic acid fermentation, organic acid contents were, in the order of descending abundance, acetic acid, citric acid, lactic acid, oxalic acid, and tartaric acid. In vinegars prepared by static acetic acid fermentation, no citric acid was detected, and lactic acid content was higher than that in agitated acetic acid fermented vinegar. The volatile compounds of both vinegars, analyzed by GC-MS, did not significantly differ when various yeast strains were used. Eighteen volatile compounds were detected in vinegar prepared by agitated acetic acid fermentation and 11 in vinegar prepared by static fermentation. Volatile compounds that can affect vinegar quality, including ethyl acetate and phenethyl acetate, were present at high concentrations in static acetic acid fermented vinegar. Electronic nose analysis showed that volatile chemical patterns differed between the two types of vinegar, but there were no significant differences in sensory scores between vinegars prepared using various yeast strains or by either of the two methods of fermentation.

In order to establish methods of potato processing for mixed cooking with rice as main diet, treatment for polyphenol oxidase inactivation in potato tissues, and safety in regard to sanitation were studied. The results were summarized as follows: 1. Cut potato granule which were blanched in boiling water are practical and best in color within $3{\sim}6\;minutes$ dipping. 2. Dipping treatment of potato granules in a saline solution is not pratical because of the resulting color and saline taste. 3. Dipping treatment of potato granules in a boiling saline solution is not practical because of residual salt. 4. Dipping treatment of potato granules in low concentration of hydrochloric acid solution is not effective in color changes but dipping treatment from 0.1N concentration for 4-10 minutes to 0.5N concentration for $1{\sim}10minutes$ shows good effects. 5. Dipping treatment in boiling hydrochloric acid solution of 0.04-0.068N concentration for 3-5 minutes dipping is practical for its resulting color. 6. Dipping treatments in 0.05% of $K_2S_20_5$ solution for $50{\sim}60\;minutes$ and in 0.06% for $40{\sim}60\;minutes$ and 0.065% for $10{\sim}60\;minutes$ shows a small palatability in color but its boiled potato granules shows good color 7. Treatments for any time in $0.01{\sim}0.03%$ of boiling $K_2K_20_5$ solution after predipping in its cold solution for longer time than 30minutes show effective in the color and palatability of the potato granules and their cooked ones. 8. From the view of food sanitation, dipping treatment of the potato granules in the solution of $K_2S_20_5$ is safe because of the few residual amount of $SO_2$. 9. All the methods of treatment that potato granules are dipped for any time at 0.01% of $K_2S_20_5$ solution are safe from the view of fond sanitation. At 0.03% of $K_2S_20_5$ solution, nothing but the methods of treatment that they are dipped within 30 minutes and boiled within 4 minutes are safe.

The purpose of this study was to determine the level of acrylamide in various processed foods, some of which were chosen because they were known to contain an excessive amount of acrylamide. A total of 190 food products based on steamed rice, cereals, and potato chips were purchased from retail markets and analyzed with the LC-MS/MS method. Acrylamide was found to be widely distributed in all of the foods. The fried Potato chips contained the highest levels of acrylamide, at $470-3,572{\mu}g/kg$; these were lowered to $38-633{\mu}g/kg$ by vacuum frying. The median concentration of acrylamide was higher in snacks containing potato ($448{\mu}g/kg$) than in those with no potato ($133{\mu}g/kg$). The concentrations of acrylamide were 2-96 $\mu$g/kg in Korean staple foods, $48-61{\mu}g/kg$ in bone-extract soups, and $0-57{\mu}g/kg$ in Bulgogi sauce. These results suggest that the components of processed ffods and the processing methods are important determinants of acrylamide formation.
