In order to design the better brassiere in terms of appearance and functions, various parameters of the materials should be considered; in this study, fatigue properties and subjective sensation of wing materials and its relation to the preference for a brassiere was investigated. After the survey of commercially available products, five elastic fabrics such as cotton, Modal, polyester, nylon, and Tactel, all of which contain 10% polyurethane, were chosen as specimens. Fabric growth were determined to evaluate fatigue properties. Qmax was determined to evaluate the warm-cool feeling. For the sensory test, semantic differential scale which contains 15 adjectives were developed. Fatigue properties were very similar at the 20% elongation irrespective of the duration of tension, but at 40% and 100% elongation, man made fabric showed less growth than cellulose fabrics. The factor analysis showed four factors such as sense of warmth, smoothness, weight and elasticity. Preference of the specimens was ranked in the order of Tactel>Modal>cotton>nylon>polyester.

Total contents of fatty acid compositions such as SFA, MUFA, and PUFA affected the beef preference more for Korean consumers than for Australian consumers while most of fatty acids had no relationship with the beef preference for Australian consumers. Although variations in the absolute concentration and in the relative proportions of different fatty acids would affect the flavor profile, the effect of fatty acids on the preference for clustering depended more on consumer groups than on beef origin.

This study investigated the influence of incorporating chestnut inner shell powder (CISP) at varying levels (0%, 3%, 6%, 9%, and 12% w/w) on the quality, antioxidant potential, and consumer preference of garaetteok, a Korean rice cake. Findings revealed a decrease in moisture content and pH with increasing CISP content. Color analysis indicated a reduction in lightness (L) and yellowness (b) values, while redness (a) values increased. Textural properties displayed an increase in hardness, chewiness, and gumminess, but a decrease in springiness, adhesiveness, and cohesiveness with increasing CISP levels. Sensory evaluation for appearance, taste, flavor, texture, and overall preference revealed the sample containing 6% CISP to be the most favorable. Moreover, the antioxidant activity of the garaetteok exhibited a positive correlation with increasing CISP content. In conclusion, incorporating 6% CISP resulted in improved quality characteristics for garaetteok development, offering enhanced nutritional value, antioxidant properties, and overall consumer preference.

High sodium intake is one of the risk factors for the development of hypertension. According to 2007 Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, sodium intake of Korean was three times higher than adequate intake (1.5 g/day) recommended by Korean Dietary Reference Intakes. High sodium intake is related to high threshold and preference of salty taste. And zinc status is known to affect taste acuity. The hypothesis of this study is that zinc status is associated with salty taste acuity, preference, sodium intake and blood pressure. The subjects included in this study were 50 men and 41 women aged 20-29 y who did not smoke and not take supplements or medications regularly. Dietary intake data for 3 days were collected by 24-h recall for 1 day and dietary record for 2-days. Salty taste acuity and preference were determined by sensory test. Fasting serum concentration of zinc, height, weight, body composition and blood pressure data were collected. Salt taste preference in high zinc intake group ($\geq$ estimated average requirement, EAR; men-8.1 mg/day, women-7 mg/day) was higher than that in low zinc intake group (< EAR). Salty taste preference was inversely correlated with serum zinc concentration in people with low concentration of serum zinc (${\leqq}\;81\;{\mu}g/dL$)(r = -0.3520, p < 0.05). Diastolic blood pressure was higher in high sodium intake group than in low sodium intake group (p < 0.05), positively correlated with salty taste preference (r = 0.3866, p < 0.05) in subjects with daily zinc intake below the EAR. We conclude that low zinc status may be related to high salty taste preference and high blood pressure in Korean young adults.

This study was conducted to analyze sensory profiles of commercial sojues using a standardized sensory evaluation procedure, and to investigate the effects of sensory characteristics and brands on consumer liking for soju. Descriptive analysis and consumer taste testing were conducted for seven commercial sojues. For the descriptive analysis, eight panelists generated and evaluated 12 flavor and one pain-sensation attributes for the soju, and there were significant differences among the soju samples for all the 13 sensory attributes. For the descriptive data, principal component analysis was performed to summarize the sensory characteristics of the sojues. For the consumer testing, 224 soju drinkers (20-29 year-olds) were recruited and randomly divided into two groups; a blind group and a group with the knowledge of brand. While the hedonic ratings obtained from the blind group didn't indicate significant differences among the sojues, the ratings obtained from the brand-informed group showed significant differences. Finally, the individual preferences of the 112 consumers in each group were investigated by preference mapping techniques.

This study was attempted to evaluate quality of retort-pouched conuiment food by adding garlic, ginger, redpepper in cooking soybean paste pot stew. Cooked and storaged retort-pouch soybean paste pot stew with four different levels of garlic, ginger, red-pepper (T$_1$garlic 2%, T$_2$: ginger l％, T$_3$: red-pepper 2%,T$_4$: garlic 2%+ginger 1 ％) was tested for sensory evaluation, pH, TBA value, and microbiological number changes. 1) No systematic increase of total bacteria counts was detected during the storage periods for bowl or retort pouch soybean-paste samples. The inclusions of ginger extract did not pose any microbiological safty problem. 2) Sensory evaluation conducted by fifteen university students as panelists showed that there were significant differences among five samples in color, flavour, and appearance and a notable preference for T$_1$ sample. 3) There was a slowly increase of TBA value during the first 5-7 days of storage in retort-pouch and bowl. The inclusion of ginger extract at 1.0％ level tended to lower TBA values.

For a period of 5 days, the quality of breads with Paecilomyces japonica powder were investigated using chemical, sensory, and mechanical evaluations at $25^{\circ}C$. The result of analysis of chemical properties revealed that the pH value of dough was increased as the amount of Paecilomyces japonica powder increased, but volume of dough and baking loss rate were decreased. Breads with 1% and 2% Paecilomyces japonica powder showed a good overall preference in sensory evaluation. As storing time passed. moisture content, lightness, and redness were decreased in all breads, but yellowness increased. Hardness and gumminess of texture analysis were increased as storing time passed, but springiness decreased. Springiness of the mechanical properties was negatively correlated with pH value of dough and volume of bread, while was positively correlated with volume of dough and baking loss rate. In the analysis of correlation between sensory and mechanical properties showed that hardness of mechanical properties had negative correlation with softness, moistness, and springiness. Cohesiveness of mechanical properties had positive correlation with acceptability.

This study developed gasiogapidduk to increase the functional value and flavor of traditional Baiksulgi by adding gasiogapi powder. Powdered nonglutinous rice was mixed with powdered leaves (1%, 2%, 3%), powdered stems roots (1%, 3%, 5%), and powdered freeze-dried root extracts (5%, 10%, 15%) of Acanthopanax senticosus, known as the second ginseng, in order to find the combination ratio optimal to the senses. Sensory evaluation and texture characteristic evaluation of gasiogapidduk were used to develop a functional rice cake appealing to the largest number of people. Sensory evaluation consisted of evaluating color, smell, taste and texture, preference quality which reflects overall appeal. Texture characteristics were evalauated on hardness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, springiness and gumminess. As a result, AE5 mixed with 5% powdered freeze-dried Acanthopanax senticosus extract proved to be the most desirable in both sensory evaluation and texture characteristics.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Capsosiphon fulvescens powder on the functional and sensory characteristics of dumpling shell. Various dumpling shell samples were prepared with wheat flour along with the addition of different amounts of Capsosiphon fulvescens powder, and then instrumental characteristics and sensory evaluations were investigated. According to amylograph data, the composite Capsosiphon fulvescens powder-wheat flour samples had increased gelatinization temperatures with increasing Capsosiphon fulvescens powder content; whereas initial viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$, viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$ after 15minutes, and maximum viscosity were reduced. In terms of Hunter's color values, L, a and b values decreased with increasing Capsosiphon fulvescens powder content. Besides cooked weight, cooked volume and turbidity of dumpling shell increased as the addition level of Capsosiphon fulvescens powder increase. In terms of textural characteristics, addition of Capsosiphon fulvescens powder increased springiness, chewiness, brittleness, pringiness and adhesiveness. Based on sensory evaluations, the overall preference of dumpling shell with 3% added Capsosiphon fulvescens powder, was more effective than control.
