Fermentation characteristics for the production of honey wine with Saccharomyces sake, Saccharomyces bayanus and nuruk were investigated. Among the yeast strains and the mixture with nuruk tested, nuruk-Sacch. sake mixture and nuruk-Sacch. bayanus mixture showed higher alcohol production and better fermentability than the single strains. Total acid and pH did not change considerably during the whole period of fermentation. As the fermentation progressed, reducing sugar decreased rapidly until the 6 days of fermentation, while alcohol content increased rapidly during the same period. In fermentation of 6 days, honey wine consisted of about $7.5{\sim}8.1^{\circ}Brix$ of soluble solid, $22.7{\sim}31.8%$ of reducing sugar. Alcohol content were reached up to 12.5 and 13.1% for honey wine manufactured with nuruk-Sacch. sake mixture and nuruk-Sacch. bayanus mixture, respectively, relative to $5.2{\sim}7.2%$ of the single strains. Generally, honey wines prepared with the mixture of nuruk-yeast strains were fermented more efficiently than those with the single yeast.

This study examined the optimal ingredient mixing ratio for the preparation of steamed cake containing mugwort (Artemisia princeps var. orientalis) powder. After preliminary studies, the following ingredient ranges were determined; 110~129% sugar, 3~8% mugwort powder, 10~25% oil. Among the different mixture designs, the D-optimal design was chosen for analysis. The results of F-test, specific gravity, viscosity, volume and color values (L, a, b), hardness decided a linear model, while the sensory characteristics (color, taste, texture and overall acceptance) decided a quadratic model. The fitness analysis results showed that in all characteristic, the probabilities were significant within 0.05%; thus, the models were accepted as appropriate. The response surface and trace plot results showed that increasing amounts of mugwort powder decreased the brightness, and increased redness and yellowness. As the level of added oil increased, the softness of the cake increased. Cake samples received low sensory evaluation scores when sugar, mugwort powder, and oil were added above their optimal levels. The optimum formulations by the numerical and graphical methods, were similar, and with the numerical method presented as: sugar, mugwort powder, and oil at 120.7%, 5.1%, and 16.2%, respectively(flour weight basis). The above results demonstrate the feasibility of adding mugwort powder to sponge cake, and therefore, the commercialization of mugwort powder cake marketed as a functional food is deemed possible.

Direct conversion of raw starch without liquefaction to maltose using maltose-forming fungal a-amylase (Fungamyl) was carried out in an agitated bead enzyme reactor (bioattritor). The reaction rate in bioattritor was comparable with conventional method which utilized liquefied soluble starch. Moreover the extent of maltose formation increased substantially compared with conventional method; from 150 g / I of raw starch, around 95 g/l of maltose was formed and 72% of maltose content in sugar mixture was achieved. Especially, pH influenced greatly not only on total sugar formation from raw starch in bioattritor but also on maltose content in sugar mixture. The optimal pH for maltose formation from raw starch was shifted into the weak alkaline pH, the optimal pH of 8.0~9.0 in bioattritor contrast to pH of 5.0~5.5 for liquefied starch. The maltose formation and content were also affected by the amounts of Fungamyl added and raw starch concentration. Consumption of maltose-forming Fungamyl can be substantially reduced by supplementary addition of starch liquefying a-amylase (Termamyl).

The purposes of this study were firstly to optimize the recipe for iced cookies by cooking with five different ingredient levels of $Jinuni\;bean(X_1),\;butter(X_2)\;&\;sugar(X_3)$ and secondly to analyze the chemical and sensory test results by using RSM(Response Surface Methodology). As a result of this test, water activity decreased with increasing contents of butter or sugar, while hydrophilic browning decreased independently with increasing sugar content. There was a positive correlation(p<.001) between specific gravity and hardness, although the result was not uniform due to the interaction of each factor. There was a negative correlation(p<.001) between the spread ratio and gravity or hardness, and it tended to increase with increasing each content. Color value L and color value a had positive correlation (p<.001) and the value tended to decrease with increasing the quantity of Jinuni bean. Generally, the strength of the cookies showed a saddle point at the peak of the 3d graph. As a result of sensory evaluation, the color was sensitive to the contents of sugar and Jinuni bean, the texture was sensitive to the contents of butter and sugar, and the taste and overall quality were sensitive to all three factors. Color had a positive correlation(p<.05) with the taste, texture and overall quality. There were high positive correlations(p<.001) between the taste, texture and overall quality. The preference data showed an up-swollen, parabolic shape in the center of the 34 graph, which enabled the optimum value to be determined and the optimum mixture ratio which fulfilled all sensory items was Jinuni bean 93g, butter 188.5g and sugar 155g, indicating a substitution of flour by $44\%$.

The objective of this study was to develop a food material and, examination of fermented juice using turnips. The highest yield of fermented juice was with the mixture ratio of 60% turnip, 20% rice-nuruk and 20% sugar. The total acidity and turbidity increased depending on the adding rate of rice-nuruk. By reducing sugar concentration by 24.9%, 22.6% and 25.3% resulted in samples containing 5%, 20% and 35% of rice-nuruk. The reduced sugar concentration was the highest at 35% rice-nuruk and 5% sugar. As a result of enzyme activity, ${\alpha}$-amylaze was the highest at 5% rice-nuruk and 35% sugar, and glucoamylase was increased by depending on the rice-nuruk concentration. The main organic acids in fermented turnip juice were succinic acid, acetic acid and lactic acid, and were increased during fermentation. DPPH free radical scavenging activity of fermented turnip juice was higher than that of non fermented turnip juice. Also, the nitrite scavenging ability was the highest($89.58{\pm}0.00$) in 35% rice-nuruk at pH 3.0.

Dynamic changes of free sugar and amino acid in the mixture of red bean paste sediment by corn syrup concentration and heating conditions were monitored. Glucose and fructose contents of red bean paste increased with an increasing blown color intensity. Amino acid content was affected by the heating temperature, increased with an increase in browning color intensify. Browning color intensity of each samples increased up to $95^{\circ}C$, but decreased above $95^{\circ}C$. This result was the same tend as changes of glucose and amino acid. The result of correlation coefficients among free sugar amino acid and browning color intensity show that increase in browning color intensity was not correlated directly with changes of free sugar and amino acid content. It seems that the contents of free sugar and amino acid resolved from saccharides and protein were much mote than contents nea for browning reaction.

In order to determine optimum condition for the Ko-Choo-Jang (red-pepper-paste) processing, chemical analysis, mixed ratio, and sensory teat, resulted as follows. 1. The best nutritional value could be obtained after three hours at $60^{\circ}C$, which proved to be the optimum temperature in koji digestion of starch paste. 2. The component ratio of wheat flour to koji-powder was two to one giving the best digestion. 3. The mixing ratio of salt and red-pepper-powder and flour-koji was determined as 1 : 1.5 : 3 by sensory tests. 4. The highest reducing sugar content appeared in a digested mixture using glutinous rice as a starch source and the reducing sugar increased continuously with decreasing, total sugar content in almost every mixture of starches. 5. As a starch source, glutinous rice powder produced the highest total sugar in the beginning stages, however, after 10 day's curing produced less sugar than rice powder. 6. The order of total nitrogen content in the cured paste was recorded as wheat-flour, rice-powder, corn-powder, glutinous-powder, barley-powder, and sweet potato-starch. 7. Amino-nitrogen was increased with curing and the highest, value was observed in the case of wheat flour. 8. In sensory test, Ko-Choo-Jang made of glutinous rice-powder resulted in the best taste.

Low cost fermentation substrates frequently contain a mixture of carbon sources including hexoses, pentoses and disaccharides. Fermentation of such mixtures requires an understanding of how each of these substrates is utilized. During batch culture of Pichia stipitis CBS 5776 on sugar mixtures, glucose causes catabolite repression of xylose and cellobiose utilization. Also, glucose causes a permanent repression of xylose utilization as evidenced by reduced growth rates during the xylose phase of glucose/xylose fermentation. The growth model for multiple substrates is developed based on a cyclic AMP mediated catabolite repression mechanism and this model adequately described the growth and ethanol production from sugar mixtures.
