The aim of this study was to examine price sensitivity of industrial products purchased via a group buying system and how industrial products for a group buying system differ from general industrial products, and then identify the major factors in selecting products and the important determinants in purchasing industrial products for school foodservices. The survey was conducted with 250 dietitians (teachers) in Gyeonggi-do Province, who were using industrial products for a group buying system and general industrial products. A paired t-test showed a difference in satisfaction between industrial products for a group buying system and general industrial products by factors, while statistically significant differences were found for red pepper paste, fermented soybean paste and soy sauce in all nine satisfaction factors, including product quality, packaging state, labeling, hygiene, item diversity, specification diversity, price appropriateness and supply. Moreover, analyzing price sensitivity for industrial products for a group buying system, using the PSM method with respect to the issue of high price, showed that the respondents considered that the current unit purchase prices were high for all items investigated. This study suggests that schools would purchase more industrial products for a group buying system, when the pricing of the products are considered with the purchase intention of dietitians (teachers).

Compact Airborne Spectrographic Imager (CASI) hyperspectral imagery was acquired over the Little Miami River Watershed (1756 square miles) in Ohio, U.S.A., which is one of the largest hyperspectral image acquisition. For the development of a 4m-resolution land cover dataset, a hierarchical approach was employed using two different classification algorithms: 'Image Object Segmentation' for level-1 and 'Spectral Angle Mapper' for level-2. This classification scheme was developed to overcome the spectral inseparability of urban and rural features and to deal with radiometric distortions due to cross-track illumination. The land cover class members were lentic, lotic, forest, corn, soybean, wheat, dry herbaceous, grass, urban barren, rural barren, urban/built, and unclassified. The final phase of processing was completed after an extensive Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QA/QC) phase. With respect to the eleven land cover class members, the overall accuracy with a total of 902 reference points was 83.9% at 4m resolution. The dataset is available for public research, and applications of this product will represent an improvement over more commonly utilized data of coarser spatial resolution such as National Land Cover Data (NLCD).

The influence of spice (cinnamon, allspice, black pepper)-oil extract on canned seafood quality was studied. During the processing of canned seafood, the substitution of spice-oil extract for vegetable oil (refined sunflower, corn, soybean and olive oil) resulted in a decrease in the heat resistance of spore microorganisms, making it possible to reduce the duration of sterilization for canned food to 5-10 min at $115^{\circ}C$. This reduction in the sterilization duration of canned seafood with spice-oil extract inhibited residual microflora in the product, thus reducing the deleterious effect of heating on the main food compounds while preserving protein digestibility.

A total of 252, 50 week-old Isa-brown laying hens were randomly allotted to 7 groups of 3 replicates. Mustard meal (MM) which is a by-product from mustard processing plant, was dried under the sun or in a gas heated pan. It contained on DM basis 30-32% CP, 19-22% EE and 12-13% CF. The meal from either drying method was incorporated into the diets at 0, 10, 20 and 30% which was equivalent to the substitution levels for soybean meal at 0, 31, 63 and 94%, respectively. All birds were individually kept in battery cages where feed and water were freely accessed throughout 84 days experimental period. It was found that egg production, feed intake, body weight gain and egg weight significantly decreased with the increased MM level. The inclusion of 20% MM did not show a significant difference in egg production and quality from the control, but produced 6-8% lower egg production. Feed intake was linearly decreased with the MM levels, except the 10% sun dried MM group. Fat deposition of the birds fed MM diets significantly decreased, while kidney weight increased when compared with the control group. However, the weight of thyroid glands and spleen trended to be heavier in the MM groups, but this was not significantly different among dietary treatments. It was concluded, MM from both drying methods could be incorporated in laying hen diets at the level of 10% without any adverse effect.

1) A process was described for the preparation of drum-dried weaning food containing about 20% protein and based on a blend of sweet potato, full-fat soy flour, minerals, vitamins and methionine. 2) The protein efficiency ratio of this product was 2.63 as compared to 3.30 for the blend containing corn starch in place of sweet potato. This is attributed to the partial destruction of available lysine in the presence of sweet potato during the drum-drying process. 3) Overall nutritive value of the weaning food was comparable to milk food and control food based on corn starch and soy flour in terms of feed efficiency, body composition and protein retention.

A thermophilic bacterium producing the extracellular cellulase was isolated from soybean paste, and the isolate WL-12 has been identified as Bacillus licheniformis on the basis on its 16S rRNA sequence, morphology and biochemical properties. A gene encoding the cellulase of B. licheniformis WL-12 was cloned and its nucleotide sequence was determined. This cellulase gene, designated celA, consisted of 1,551 nucleotides, encoding a polypeptide of 517 amino acid residues. The gene product contained catalytic domain and cellulose binding domain. The deduced amino acid sequence was highly homologous to those of cellulases of B. licheniformis, B. subtilis and B. amytoliquefaciens belonging to the glycosyl hydrolase family 5. When the celA gene was highly expressed using a strong B. subtilis promoter, the extracellular cellulase was produced up to 7.0 units/ml in B. subtilis WB700.

The sauce and paste, which is collectively called as 'jang' in Korean is the staple seasoning of Korean cuisine. Although China shares some aspects of the Jang (醬), the exact types and forms are different. In this study, we explore the current Korean jang through the six culinary books- "Seongwonlog (醒園錄)", "Yangsolog (養小錄)", "Jojeongjip (調鼎集)", "Susiggeeumsigbo (隨息居飮食譜)", "Junggwerok (中饋錄)", and "Sosigseolyag (素食說略)" from the Qing Dynasty of China. The Jang of Qing Dynasty are further classified into the Chumjang (甛醬), Dusi (豆豆支), Chungjang (淸醬), and jangyou (醬油). To make these four types, the huangzi (黃子) has to be first made from the flour or beans, after which salt is added and sun-dried. Chumjang is the type of Chunjang used to make Zhajiangmian and is widely used in the Northern part of China. Like Chumjang, Dusi is made from flour and beans. Salt as well as various spices like Star anise, Chinese pepper and sesame are added. This type of paste is widely used in the Southern part of China. Chungjang is made when salt and water are added and sun-dried, after which it is filtered through an apparatus called Jangyou. The final product is sauce similar to today's soybean sauce.

This study was conducted to present fundamental data on the physicochemical properties and sensory qualities of salad dressings made with chicken foot gelatin. Preliminary experiments were performed to confirm the gelatin powder concentrations in preparing gelatin solutions. A 2% gelatin solution, including 0.5% agar, was prepared for use in the experiments that followed. Sensory evaluations were conducted to compare the organoleptic acceptance of dressings manufactured with differing concentrations of the additive in seasoning soybean sauce, mayonnaise, and sesame powder. The viscosities of the dressings significantly increased with increasing gelatin powder concentration. A decrease in turbidity was observed in the mayonnaise and sesame dressings. The color difference values of all dressings indicated no changes. In sensory evaluations of dressings prepared with gelatin solutions at different concentrations of 2 g (1%), 4 g (2%), and 8 g (4%) of gelatin powder, the 4 g (2%) sample received the highest score for overall acceptance. From this study, which was conducted to find an efficient use for chicken house wast product, it is anticipated that chicken feet will be utilized as a new raw material for producing collagen and gelatin, protein sources widely increasing in use with in the food and bio-industries.

To develop a new Gugija(Lycium chinensis Mill) product having increased value, the physiological functionality of various commercial Gugija products were investigated. In addition, an in vivo study was performed using spontaneous hypertensive rats(SHR) to examine the anti-hypertension effects of products. The results showed that antioxidant activity was highest in the methanol extract of Gugija leaf pickle(97.7%), and anti-hypertensive angiotensin I -converting enzyme(ACE) inhibitory activity was 80.4% in Gugija doenjang(soybean paste) water extract. Anti-cholesterolemia HMG-CoA reductase inhibitory activity was highest in the methanol extract of Gugija rice cake(66.1 %). However, SOD-like activity was below 30% in most products; and fibrinolytic activity was not detected or was very weak. Ultimately, we selected Gugija tea and Gugija wine as superior anti-hypertensive Gugija products, and subsequent in vivo testing was performed using SHR, comparing the tea and wine to Gugija fruit. Among them, the Gugija fruit demonstrated the best anti-hypertension effects in SHR.

Xanthomonas oryzae causes rice bacterial blight, which has been reported as one of the most destructive diseases of rice. Metabolites were identified through cheonggukjang, a traditional Korean fermented soybean product fermented by the Bacillus spp., to control the bacteria. HPLC, MS, and UPLC-Q-TOF-MS analyses were performed to identify metabolites responsible for antimicrobial activity. In this analysis, the m/z values of 253.0498, 283.0600, 269.0455, 992.6287, and 1,006.6436 were identified as daidzein, glycitein, genistein, surfactin B, and surfactin A, respectively. The levels of surfactin B and surfactin A were found to be high at 24 h (4.35 ${\mu}g$/ml) and 36 h (3.43 ${\mu}g$/ml) of fermentation, respectively.
