This study was intended to investigate the characteristics of muffins prepared with allulose which is low-calorie and physiologically functional rare sugar. Volume and specific volume of muffins increased significantly with allulose addition, but not with its contents. Muffin heights also increased as allulose was added more. Baking loss rate and moisture contents were not significantly different among samples. Allulose seemed to have nearly same water holding capacity with sucrose. Lightness of muffin crust and crumb both decreased, but redness and yellowness increased according to allulose, the reducing sugar addition by Maillard reaction. In the texture profile analysis, Hardness of AL100 was higher significantly (p<0.05) and springiness, cohesiveness and fracturability increased according to the allulose contents. In the sensory evaluation, AL0 was the sweetest and AL0 and AL25 got higher overall acceptance score. Physical characteristics were not different (p<0.05) among AL0, Al25 and AL50. As a result, 25% sucrose substitution with allulose can provide low-calorie, anti-hyperglycemic and tasty muffin.

The intelligent sensory system is required to ensure the accurate welding performance. This paper describes the development of an intelligent vision sensor for the robotic laser welding. The sensor system includes a PC based vision camera and a stripe-type laser diode. A set of robust image processing algorithms are implemented. The laser-stripe sensor can measure the profile of the welding object and obtain the seam line. Moreover, the working distance of the sensor can be changed and other configuration is adjusted accordingly. The robot, the seam tracking system, and CW Nd:YAG laser are used for the laser welding robot system. The simple and efficient control scheme of the whole system is also presented. The profile measurement and the seam tracking experiments were carried out to validate the operation of the system.

The purposes of this study are to generate sensory profile, measure consumer acceptance, and determine liking and disliking factors of aseptic-packaged rice porridges (APRP). Five APRPs made by five different rice cultivars were used for this study. Twenty-one attributes were generated by trained panelists. Finally, 16 attributes were determined as descriptive terms for APRP. Each cultivar showed a different descriptive sensory profile. In a consumer acceptance test, there was no statistical difference (P>0.05) in the acceptances of the overall, appearance, taste, texture, viscosity, and rice particle texture among the 5 APRPs. SW52 showed the highest acceptance ratings in the overall, appearance, taste and texture, followed by SR. A total of 52% of consumers showed preference toward SW52 and SR. SW63 showed the lowest ratings and no consumer preference pattern. Consumers were divided into two groups by a cluster analysis; one was the consumers (C1) who liked APRP, and the other was the consumers (C2) who had a neutral stand in general. By correlating the results from descriptive analysis and consumer ratings from C1, liking and disliking factors for consumer acceptance were determined. The disliking factors were bitterness, feeling of surface, stickiness, metallic flavor, roasted aroma, and thickness. The liking factors were old cooked rice aroma/flavor. The disliking factors dominated in the determination of acceptability of APRP. Selecting rice cultivars that had low intensities of disliking factors is the key for APRP development.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the characteristics of muffin made with tagatose which substituted sugar. Moisture contents were measured and Texture Profile Analysis was carried out during 3 day storage. 3 types of muffin, T0 (no tagatose added, sugar was the only sweet taste source), T25 (tagatose : sugar = 25:75(w/w), and T50 (tagatose : sugar = 50:50(w/w) were prepared. As the tagatose contents increased, the Maillard reaction proceeded more, so the color of the muffin crust was darker. Moisture contents of muffins decreased during storage, up to 2 days of storage, moisture contents of T25 and T50 were higher significantly, but at the 3rd day of storage, no differences were detected among samples. In the texture profile analysis, hardness, chewiness and fracturability were higher as the tagatose contents increased. Springiness and cohesiveness did not show any differences between T0 and T25 significantly. In the sensory evaluation, T0 got the lower points on the crust color value, but the crust colors were not significantly different among samples. Other characteristics like crumb color, moistness, sweetness, flavor and overall acceptance were not different significantly. As a result, when synbiotic and low-calorie tagatose was partly added to muffin up to 50 % as sugar substitute, overall qualities of those muffins were not different with only sugar added ones, even moisture contents were higher but color was a little bit darker, so tagatose can be used on making healthy muffins successfully.

The changes in the chemical composition of yeast extracts during autolysis and their effect to the sensory quality were studied with baker's yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The amounts of extracted solids, proteins, amio-N. amino acids, especially glutamic acid, alanine and lysine, increased by the autolysis time up to 48 hrs. The results of sensory evaluation made by the multiple paired comparision test and Duncan's test indicated a significant difference is taste by the time of autolysis. In the profile test, the flavor character notes expressed by the panel were 17 different characters, 11 in aroma and 6 in taste. The character notes and the intensity of flavor changed with the time of autolysis. The sharp and beany flavor of the extracts which was autolyzed for 4 hours turned into meaty and worty flavor by 48 hours of autolysis. A proper arrangement of the flavor characters in the quantitative descriptive chart could provide a weighted value of the flavor grade. The aroma grade index and the taste grade index correlated to the amplitudes of the profile test.

Pumpkin rice cakes were prepared by different cooking methods and the instrumental analysis and sensory evaluation were performed to measure the quality characteristics and to determine standard perparation methods for pumpkin rice cake. Pumpkin rice cake prepared with the flour of pumpkin and rice sieved together had higher moisture content than others. Hunter's color values were different by cooking methods. In texture profile analysis, hardness, gumminess and chewiness of pumpkin rice cake appeared different by cooking methods. In sensory evaluation, all categories were significantly different at p<0.05. The results showed that pumpkin rice cake prepared with the flour of pumpkin and rice sieved together was preferable in color, taste, moistness, consistency and overall acceptance.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of sponge cakes with addition of yam (Dioscorea) powders prepared by different drying methods, hot air (HDYP : hot air dried yam powder) and freeze drying (FDYP: freeze dried yam powder), using several physical and sensory examinations. For the foam forming ability and foam stability, the specific gravities of egg foams containing 5% yam powders were measured by drainage using funnels for 78 hrs. The results showed that HDYP and FDYP did not affect the foam forming ability but FDYP increased foam stability due to increased viscosity. When the strength of 8% gels composed of wheat starch and HDYP/FDYP was measured to predict the setting of cake structure, the strengths of starch gels containing yam powders were higher than those of control without yam powders. The volume of sponge cake containing 5% HDYP increased whereas those containing FDYP decreased at the levels of 5, 7%. From the texture profile analysis data, hardness, gumminess and chewiness of cakes containing yam powders increased. The color of cake crust and crumb became darker as the amount of yam powders increased. The results of sensory evaluation by QDA (quantitative descriptive analysis) to compare two different drying methods showed that appearance and texture of cakes containing 5% HDYP were closer to those of control than cakes containing 5% FDYP but overall acceptability of sponge cakes containing yams were comparable to the control cakes regardless of drying methods. The addition of yam powders to sponge cakes increased yam flavor and decreased egg smell. Therefore, it can be suggested that HDYP and FDYP can be added to the sponge cake formula up to 7% and 5%, respectively.

This study was designed to determine the usability of lemon fiber (LF-2%, 4%, 6%) and carrot fiber (CF-2%, 4%, 6%) to produce lowfat beef hamburgers. To that end, a certain amount of fat was replaced with each fiber. The proximate composition, pH value, cholesterol content, cooking characteristics, color, texture profile, and sensory properties of low-fat beef hamburgers were investigated. LF increased moisture content and cooking yield due to its better water binding properties, while CF caused higher fat and cholesterol contents owing to its higher fat absorption capacity (p<0.05). LF resulted in a lighter, redder, and more yellow color (p<0.05). Hardness, gumminess, springiness, and chewiness parameters decreased when the usage level of both fibers increased (p<0.05). However, more tender, gummy, springy, and smoother hamburgers were produced by the addition of CF in comparison with LF (p<0.05). Moreover, hamburgers including CF were rated with higher sensory scores (p<0.05). In conclusion, LF demonstrated better technological results in terms of cooking yield, shrinkage, moisture retention, and fat retention. However it is suggested that CF produces better low-fat hamburgers since up to 2% CF presented sensory and textural properties similar to those of regular hamburgers.

This study was conducted to examine the changes of sensory and instrumental characteristics focusing on flavor and texture of cooked rice with Akibare(Japonica type) and Milyang 23(hybrid of Japonica and Indies) under two different storage temperatures. The changes of sensory characteristics were not significant throughout the storage of 70 days at $5^{\circ}C$, but were significant after 30 days storage at $30^{\circ}C$. The stepwise regression showed that stickiness, gloosiness and off-flavor of rice effected on overall preference in old rice stored at $30^{\circ}C$. As making storage temperature be tiger and period be longer, hardness, springiness, gumminess and chewiness were increased further but cohesiveness and adhesiveness were decreased in the texture changes of cooked rice measured by Instron.

Restructuring had made it possible to utilize lower value cuts and meat trimmings from spent animals by providing convenience in product preparation besides enhancing tenderness, palatability and value. Milk co-precipitates (MCP) have been reported to improve the nutritional and functional properties of certain meat products. This study was undertaken to evaluate the influence of incorporation of milk co-precipitates at four different levels viz. 0, 10, 15 and 20% on the quality of restructured buffalo meat blocks. Low-calcium milk co-precipitates were prepared from skim milk by heat and salt coagulation of milk proteins. Meat chunks were mixed with the curing ingredients and chilled water in a Hobart mixer for 5 minutes, followed by addition of milk co-precipitates along with condiments and spice mix and again mixed for 5 minutes. Treated chunks were stuffed in aluminium moulds and cooked in steam without pressure for 1.5 h. After cooking, treated meat blocks were compared for different physico-chemical and sensory attributes. Meat blocks incorporated with 10% MCP were significantly better (p<0.05) than those incorporated with 0, 15 and 20% MCP in cooking yield, percent shrinkage and moisture retention. Sensory scores were also marginally higher for meat blocks incorporated with 10% MCP than product incorporated with 15 and 20% MCP, besides being significantly higher than control. On the basis of above results 10% MCP was considered optimum for the preparation of restructured buffalo meat blocks. Instrumental texture profile analysis revealed that meat blocks incorporated with 10% MCP were significantly better (p<0.05) in hardness/ firmness than control although, no significant (p>0.05) differences were observed in cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess and chewiness of both type of samples.
