The purpose of this study is to measure the pizza purchasing behavioral characteristics of respondents and importances of factors affecting pizza purchase, to estimate the effects of attributes on choice of pizza restaurant, and to predict probability of selecting a particular pizza restaurant. The questionnaire consisted of two parts: The paired experimental profiles, purchasing behavior and importances of factors affecting pizza purchase. This study generated profiles of 16 hypothetical pizza restaurants based on seven attributes. The profiles comprised 16 discrete sets of variables, each of which had two levels. For this study, researcher randomly selected 150 university students as respondents. Twenty one students did not complete the survey instrument, resulting in a final sample size of 129. All estimations were carried out using frequencies, $X^2$, independent samples t-test, phreg procedure of SAS package. The results were as followed: Some purchasing behavioral characteristics and importances of factors affecting pizza purchase were significantly different by purchase frequency. Based on the estimated models developed for the two purchase frequency groups, the Chi-square statistics were significant at p<0.001. The parameter estimate for late delivery time with frequently purchase frequency group was highest, and the parameter estimate for price with frequently purchase frequency group was highest. The pizza restaurants that charged 20,000 won, offered 100% discount on eleventh pizza, promised to deliver pizza in 20 min, usually delivered the pizza as promised, offered 2 or more types of pizza crust, delivered steaming hot pizza, and did not offer a money-back guarantee which was favored by each of the two purchase frequency groups. The results from this study suggested that there was an opportunity to increase market share and profit by improving operations so that customers can receive discount and money-back guarantee simultaneously, and by reducing price, delivery time.

The optimum conditions of the alcohol fermentation with raw tapioca by simultaneous saccharification and alcohol fermentation (SSAF) were studied using raw starch enzyme. The optimum conditions for maximum alcohol production were 0.5% (w/w) of enzyme content, 250% (v/w) of added water content and 96 hr of fermentation time. The alcohol and reducing sugar contents were 11.7% and 306 mg% after 96 hr fermentation, respectively. During the fermentation pH decreased from 6.2 to 4.2 and total acidity increased from 0.11 to 0.43. Alcohol components were detected such as ethanol, methanol, iso-propanol, n-propylalcohol and iso-butylalcohol, besides acetaldehyde. We could construct raw starch fermentation conditions which was 250% (v/w) of added water content and 0.5% (w/w) of enzyme content. However, yield of raw starch alcohol fermentation was lower than that of steaming alcohol fermentation.

This study was carried out to determine changes in general chemical composition, free sugars, physicochemical properties of extract, and ginsenoside contents depending upon processing methods. Ginseng roots harvested from the same field were employed for the processing into white ginseng (WG), taegeuk ginseng (TG), red ginseng A (RGA, steamed one time), and red ginseng B (RGB, steamed three times). The fat content decreased by increasing duration of treatment and number of steaming treatment. On the other hand, there was no significant variation in contents of ash and carbohydrate depending on processing methods. Contents of sucrose and maltose was higher in Taegeuk and red ginseng than those of white ginseng. Steamed ginseng root (taegeuk and red ginseng root) showed higher amount of water extractable solid than the unsteamed white ginseng, but the variation of crude saponin content was not distinctive depending on processing methods. The contents of total ginsenosides increased by the order of white, taegeuk, red A, and red B root. In summary, chemical composition and total ginsenoside content were different according to part of root and processing methods, thus implies the importance of quality control as well as pharmacological activity of ginseng root.

Objectives: The marker substances of cultivated wild ginseng pharmacopuncture that may not be detected during the process of steaming remain controversial. We developed a combined cultivated wild ginseng pharmacopuncture that contains all the marker substances. The aim of this experiment was to investigate the marker substances and test the toxicity of the combined cultivated wild ginseng pharmacopuncture. Methods: The marker substances were detected using HPLC. Intravenous injection toxicity studies were conducted at Medvill, an authorized institution for non-clinical studies, under the regulations of Good Laboratory Practice. We observed survival rates, abnormal behaviors, weight changes, gross findings in autopsy, blood biochemical properties, and histological abnormalities of organs such as the liver and kidney. Results: HPLC data showed that ginsenosides Rg1, Rb1, and Rg3 were detected at concentrations of 19.29, 47.64, and 3.02 μ g /ml, respectively. Administration of combined cultivated wild ginseng pharmacopuncture resulted in no dead animals or significant toxicological changes. Conclusions: The combined cultivated wild ginseng pharmacopuncture contains all the marker substances and is a relatively safe treatment medium. Further studies should be conducted to confirm the present findings.

The purpose of this study was to compare the eating experience and preferences for seafood among elementary school students in Gyeonggi-do. A survey was carried out on 383 elementary school students. As for the eating experience of seafood, the students were aware of and had eaten 'Scomber japonics (Go-deung-eo) (96.3%)', 'Anadara broughtonii (Jo-gea) (95.8%)', 'Ommastrephes sloani pacificus (O-jing-eo) (98.7%)', 'Panulirus japonicus (Sea-ou) (98.4%)', 'Porphyra tenera (Gim) (99.5%)', 'Shrimp, soused (81.2%)', 'Eo-muk (98.7%)', and 'Anchovy, dried (98.7%)'. As for the preferences for seafood, 'like (67.6%)', 'fair (21.5%)', and 'dislike (7.3%)' were observed. Concerning the frequency of seafood consumption, 4th grade students showed higher frequency of '1~2/week' compared to others (p<0.05). 6th grade students showed higher frequency of '3~4/week' compared to others (p<0.05). In terms of preferable cooking methods for seafood, 'grilling (35.0%)', 'soup (23.0%)', and 'raw fish (19.8%)' were observed. Boys showed a higher preference for 'grilling', 'frying' and 'raw fish' compared to the girls (p<0.05). Girls showed a higher preference for 'soup', 'braising' and 'steaming' compared to the boys (p<0.05). As for the seafood intake by eating place, 'home (60.1%)', 'eating-out (18.3%)', and 'school lunch menus (12.8%)' were observed in that order. Therefore, in order to increase the consumption and intake of seafood, students should attempt to achieve proper intake though information of nutrition and consistent nutritional education.

Korean ginseng (Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer) has been used as a traditional herbal medicine in East Asia and is very popular in the world, because of its health benefits. To comparison of pharmacological components and physiochemical properties between white and red ginseng from same body, we analyzed ginsenoside and malonyl ginsenoside, ash, crude lipid/protein, fatty acid, mineral contents, total/reducing sugar, and total phenolic and acidic polysaccharide contents. The general components did not show any significant difference between white and red ginseng. Whereas, the content of neutral ginsenoside $Rb_1$, $Rb_2$, Rc and Rd were higher in red ginseng than those of white ginseng. However, malonyl ginsenoside such as $m-Rb_1$, $m-Rb_2$, m-Rc and m-Rd in white ginseng were similar to neutral ginsenoside $Rb_1$, $Rb_2$, Rc and Rd in white ginseng and far higher than those of red ginseng. These results exhibit that malonyl ginsenosides were converted to neutral ginsenosides in steaming process for red ginseng. So, we suggest that malonyl ginsenoside are necessary to applies in ginsenoside analysis of Korean ginseng.

This study was conducted to investigate whether four hot-water extraction steps could effectively remove off-flavor from bovine bone extracts and produce compounds with pleasant aroma. Experiments were performed using a mass spectrometry-electronic nose and Fourier transform-near infrared spectrometer (FT-NIR). Off-flavor compounds were removed by washing and extraction with hot water. Steaming treatment produced compounds with a better aroma, such as 4-methylthiazole. In addition, a change in flavor compounds was observed in treated samples.

This study examined Jeung-pyun(JP) Retrogradation in samples containing 3% whole protein, 7S protein, or 11S protein(w/w) that were stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for 6, 12, 24 and 72 hr. Rheometery and differential scanning calorimetry(DSC) were used in the analysis. The pH of the dough decreased during the fermentation process, but it increased after steaming. The JP prepared with soybean protein isolate(SPI) had higher pH than the control group. During storage the textural characteristics of the JP showed effects according to the additions of SPI. After 6 hr of storage, the JP samples containing soybean flour, whole protein, 7S protein, and 11S protein had lower hardness valuse. From 4 hr to 12 hr, higher springiness values were found in the samples containing whole protein, 7S protein and 11S protein. At 0 hr, the control group had the highest cohesiveness value, but after 24 hr it presented the lowest value. For gumminess, after 6 hr of storage, the control group offered the lowest value. Whereas after 12 hr of storage the whole protein group showed the highest value, and at 24 hr, the whole protein, 7S protein, and 11S protein groups had higher values. According to the DSC results, the 11S protein group had lower enthalpy values(${\bigtriangleup}H$) suggesting that adding 11S protein to JP might improve starch retrogradation. After 72 hr of storage, the control group had the highest onset temperature($T_{o}$) and peak temperature($T_{p}$) whereas the 7S and 11S protein JP samples had higher conclusion temperatures($T_{c}$). Therefore, based on the different analysis result between the control and treatment groups, the addition of SPI to Jp had effects on retrogradation.

This study investigates the effect of cooking, storage, and reheating conditions on the formation of cholesterol oxidation products (COPs) in pork loin. Samples of pork loin procured 24 h postmortem were initially processed and assessed for total fat and cholesterol content. The cooking methods evaluated were pan roasting, steaming, oven grilling, and microwaving. Cooked pork loin samples were stored at 4℃ and reheated after 3 and 6 d of storage using the original method of preparation or alternately, microwaving. Fat content increased significantly with cooking as a result of the loss in moisture but cholesterol content remained unchanged. Pan roasting and microwave cooking caused a significantly higher production of COPs, as with the process of reheating using microwave, pan roasting, and oven grilling methods. The major COPs found in pork loin were cholestanetriol, 20-hydroxycholesterol, and 25-hydroxycholesterol, whose concentrations varied according to the different cooking and reheating methods used. Moreover, the aerobic storage of cooked pork loin under a refrigerated condition also increased the formation of cholesterol oxides on reheating.
