Physicochemical and sensory characteristics of rice cookies prepared with various levels of amylose content were investigated in this study. Dough pH of Jinsumi and Milyang 261 cookies was decreased by addition of rice flour. Density of dough with 100% substituted Jinsumi flour had the largest value of 1.09 g/mL, whereas that of Milyang 261 cookies showed no significant difference. Spread ratio of cookies was the largest in the cookies containing Jinsumi, and Milyang 261 constituted the 50% group. Preservation ability of Milyang 261 cookies surpassed above 30%. Lightness of Jinsumi and Milyang 261 cookies increased with increasing rice flour content. The results of our sensory evaluation demonstrated that the control sample was significantly more preferable in terms of overall acceptability compared to others. These results suggest that adding 30% Milyang 261 flour is the best substitution ratio for rice cookies.

This study was conducted to evaluate quality characteristics of white breads with Acanthopanax senticosus extract(ASE) (0, 25, 50, 75 and 100%). Addition of ASE significantly decreased L-value, and increased a and b-values. Compared with the control bread, specific volume of bread added with ASE was increased. The cohesiveness, springiness and gumminess of the breads added with ASE were higher than those of the control group. Also, a sensory evaluation was carried out in terms of acceptability(color, flavor, taste, texture and overall acceptability). Taken together, the 50% treatment ranked the highest evaluation values, as compared to other treaments. Accordingly, to improve the quality of bread, it is recommendable to add ASE to the 50% level in substitution for water in making a loaf of bread. After all, this study was to confirm the possibility of ASE's utilization as natural materials containing the functional substance.

Black tea is rich in phenolic antioxidants that has shown diverse health benefits such as protection against cardiovascular diseases and cancers. Thus, it is rational to incorporate black tea into suitable food products such as sponge cakes to enhance their nutritional and functional qualities. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the addition of black tea powder (BTP) on the quality of sponge cake. The pH of cakes ranged from 7.00~7.17, with no remarkable differences. Height decreased while baking loss rate and hardness significantly increased with increases in the content of BTP in the formulation (p<0.05). For crumb color values, $L^*-value$ decreased while $a^*$ and $b^*-values$ increased as a result of BTP substitution. 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS) radical scavenging activities were significantly increased (p<0.05) with increases in the content of BTP which were well correlated. Hedonic sensory results indicated that sponge cakes supplemented with 2~4% BTP obtained the most favorable acceptance scores. On the basis of the overall observations, sponge cakes supplemented with 2~4% BTP were found to be benefit from the functional properties of BTP, without compromising on consumer acceptance.

This study investigated the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of yanggaeng prepared with various amounts of Chrysanthemum zawadskii powder (as ratios of 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2% to the total materials). The result displayed that the $^{\circ}Brix$ value, pH of yanggaeng decreased significantly with the addition of Chrysanthemum zawadskii powder. Increasing the amount of Chrysanthemum zawadskii powder in the yanggeng tended to increased acidity. In chromaticity determination, the values of lightness (L) showed a decrease. However, the value of redness (a) increased by increasing levels of Chrysanthemum zawadskii powder. Texture measurement scores in terms of hardness, springiness, and adhesiveness for yanggaeng showed that sample groups were lower than those of the control group. Cohesiveness and chewiness were higher in the additive group than in the control group. DPPH radical scavenging activity and nitrites cavenging activity were significantly increased Chrysanthemum zawadskii (p<0.001). The DPPH content was highest in the 62.40% Chrysanthemum zawadskii yanggaeng. As Chrysanthemum zawadskii powder increased, antioxidative activity also increased. Sensory evaluation scores in terms of color, odor, taste, texture, and overall preference of groups with 0.5% of Chrysanthemum zawadskii powder did not show any significant differences when compared to the control group. Based on the above results, this study suggests that the addition of 0.5% Chrysanthemum zawadskii powder may be the best substitution ratio for yanggaeng.

This study was performed to develop yut(Korean Traditional Candy), products using dried-persimmon, with the ratio of 5, 10, 15, 20 and $25\%$, and the quality characteristics were investigated. The proximate compositions of dried-persimmon were $29.67\%$ moisture, $1.76\%$ crude protein, $0.18\%$ crude lipids, $1.31\%$ crude ash and $3.92\%$ crude fiber, respectively. Brix of yut products were ranged from $81.5\%$ to $83.0\%$. With increasing the amount of dried-persimmon, hunter's color values of Land b were reduced. In the texture property, the addition of dried-persimmon increased hardness, fracturability, gumminess and chewiness, while decreased adhesiveness. Judging from texture, taste and overall acceptability of the yut product, the recommended substitution level of dried-persimmons was $10\%$. In consumer sensory score, the $twenties\~sixties$ gave high score of color, while the $thirties\~fifties$ gave high score of sweetness. Overall acceptance of yut products of $dried-persimmon$ were good in old-age consumers.

This study evaluated the quality characteristics of muffins prepared with different amounts (0%, 1%, 3%, 5%, and 7%) of moringa (Moringa oleifera Lam.) leaf powder (MLP). The weight of muffins increased as the amount of MLP increased. The height and pH of muffins significantly decreased as the amount of MLP increased (P<0.05). The moisture content was higher in groups containing 3% MLP. The hardness was higher at 0% MLP. Cohesiveness decreased as the amount of MLP increased (P<0.05), whereas springiness was not significantly different among all samples. Chewiness and brittleness decreased with increasing MLP concentration. Substitution of wheat flour with MLP yielded muffins with a higher 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity and total polyphenol content (P<0.05). Alcohol dehydrogenase and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase activity significantly increased upon addition of MLP (P<0.05). In the sensory evaluation, appearance scores of muffins were higher in groups containing 7% MLP, whereas taste, flavor, texture, and overall acceptability scores were lowest in muffins with 7% MLP. Therefore, up to 3% MLP can be incorporated into muffins to satisfy the sensory quality and functional needs of the consumer. Furthermore, this study proposes the possibility of development of various products using MLP.

The DevSR two-component system is a major regulatory system involved in redox sensing in Mycobacterium smegmatis. The DevSR system consists of the DevS histidine kinase and its cognate DevR response regulator. When exposed to hypoxic conditions, the DevS histidine kinase is activated to phosphorylate the DevR response regulator, leading to the transcriptional activation of the DevR regulation. The ligand-binding state of the heme embedded in the N-terminal GAF domain of DevS determines the kinase activity of DevS. In this study, we demonstrated that the redox-responsive cysteine (C547) in the C-terminal kinase domain is involved in the redox-dependent control of DevS kinase activity. The formation of an intersubunit disulfide bond between the C547 residues in the presence of $O_2$ led to inactivation of DevS kinase activity. The reduction of the oxidized DevS with reductants such as $\beta$-mercaptoethanol and dithiothreitol resulted in the restoration of DevS kinase activity. It was demonstrated in vivo by complementation test that the substitution of C547 to alanine partially impaired the sensory function of DevS in M. smegmatis.

This study was carried out to develop jelly food using dried persimmon. Jelly products were prepared with the ratio of 5, 10, 15, 20 and $25\%$ of dried persimmon extract. Quality characteristics of its products were investigated. Proximate compositions of jelly were $6.74\~14.03\%$ of moisture, $6.83\~7.53\%$ of crude protein, $0.62\~1.16\%$ of crude lipid, $2.61\~13.21\%$ of crude ash, respectively. Water activity and brix $(\%)$ of jelly products ranged from 0.678 and $56.66\%\;to\; 0.748\;and\;76.59\%$. The pH and total acidity of jelly products ranged from 5.30 and $0.06\%$ to 5.38 and $0.09\%$. In the Hunter's color values, L, a and b vaules of jelly products were increased, respectively. Major free-sugar and organic acid of jelly products were maltose ($753\~1,297mg/100g$) and malic acid (263mg/100g in $25\%$ dried persimmon jelly). Major mineral of jelly products was K ($69.64\~154.37mg/100g$). In the texture property, addition of dried persimmon extract decreased gumminess and chewiness. In sensory score of dried persimmon jelly, color, flavor, texture and sweetness of $15\%$ dried persimmon jelly were high score, taste and overall acceptance of jelly products were high score, respectively. Judging from research results of the jelly products, recommended substitution level for addition of dried persimmon extract in jelly was $10\~15\%$.

This study was carried out to investigate the rheological properties of dough and the quality characteristics of breads with Saesalbori (non-waxy barley) and Saechalbori (waxy barley) flours added at concentrations of 10, 20, and 30% to wheat flour. The maximum viscosity increased in the Saesalbori flour mixtures and decreased in the Saechalbori flour mixtures. The dough stability of the 10% barley flour mixtures was equal to that of the control while that of the 30% barley flour mixtures decreased more. The extensibility of the dough decreased with the increasing level of barley flour in all the blends, but the resistance of the dough increased. As the ratio of barley flour increased, the loaf volume of the breads significantly decreased, but the bread weight increased. The 10% Saesalbori flour mixtures increased the hardness of the breads but did not cause any significant change in the other TPA parameters while the 10% Saechalbori flour mixtures did not cause any change in all the TPA parameters. The sensory evaluation results showed that the 10% barley flour mixtures had no significantly different overall acceptance from the control, and that the 20% substitution still resulted in acceptable sensory qualities. The results of the study also showed that the bread-making properties of Saesalbori were improved by germination, but those of Saechalbori declined.
