This study was conducted to optimize the conditions of a sweet rice paste as a replacement of red bean paste recipe using the central composite design of response surface methodology (RSM). Ten experimental recipes with two reference points (rice flour and sugar), were selected, and the physical and sensory characteristics of a sweet rice paste were measured. In the Rapid Visco Analyzer test, breakdown value was the highest in rice flour (105.73 RVU). Sweetness significantly increased with addition of sugar contents (p<0.0002) and viscosity increased with addition of rice flour contents (p<0.0185). Moisture contents decreased with increasing contents of rice flour and sugar, whereas yellowness and redness tend to increase. In the sensory evaluation test, quadratic models for color (p<0.01865), sweetness (p<0.0399), thickness (p<0.0073), and overall acceptability (p<0.0249) were approved as independent for the rice flour and sugar contents. In conclusion, the optimal mixing ratio of sweet rice paste was determined to be 45.38 g of rice flour and 77.95 g of sugar.

This research was conducted to enhance the value of low quality sweet persimmon by processing paste by combining low quality sweet persimmon and red-bean. In order to make sweet persimmon paste containing red-bean, the following procedures were executed : 1) the sweet persimmon was cleaned by water 2) the fruit stalk was removed 3) it was peeled, sliced, pitted and crushed 4) steamed and peeled red-bean paste was mixed 5) sweetening materials(starch syrup, sugar and dextrin) and salt were mixed 6) boiled and stored in refrigerator. Sweet persimmon was peeled, stem and seed was removed to make the paste. When mixing sweet persimmon paste and red-bean paste in the ratio of 6 : 4, sensory point of taste and overall desirability were higher than mixing in 5 : 5 and 4 : 6 but texture was lower. The sweet persimmon paste containing red-bean was softened and the sugar content was increased from 41.4$^{\circ}$Brix to 53.1$^{\circ}$Brix when 10% dextrin was added. The overall sensory evaluation was higher in sweet persimmon paste containing red-bean than commercial red-bean paste when 10% dextrin was added. The overall desirability also shown a significant difference between them. Even though findings were statistically insignificant, sweet persimmon powder with red-bean paste increased in texture and overall desirability compared with commercial red-beans paste. Sweet persimmon powder paste containing red-bean significantly decreased in flavor, color, taste and overall desirability compared with sweet persimmon paste containing red-bean. As a result of this study, the best combination for the quantity of sub-materials to make sweet persimmon paste was 600g of sweet persimmon, 400g of red-bean, starch syrup 120g, sugar 60g, salt 4g and dextrin 100g.

The synergistic interactions of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) with ordinary portland cement (OPC) in multi-blended systems could enhance the mechanical and durability properties of concrete and increase the amount of cement that can be replaced. In this study, the characteristics of the hydration products as well as paste microstructure of blended cement containing 20% coal fly ash, 10% rice hull ash and 10% sugar mill lime sludge in quaternary blended system was investigated. Portlandite content, hydration products, compressive strength, pore size distribution and microstructural architecture of hydrated blended cement pastes were examined. The quaternary blended cement paste showed lower compressive strength, reduced amount of Portlandite phases, and higher porosity compared to plain hardened cement paste. The interaction of SCMs with OPC influenced the hydration products, resulting to the formation of ettringite and monocarboaluminate phases. The blended cement paste also showed extensive calcium silicate hydrates and calcium aluminate silicate hydrates but unrefined compared to plain cement paste. In overall, the expected synergistic reaction was significantly hindered due to the low quality of supplementary cementitious materials used. Hence, pre-treatments of SCMs must be considered to enhance their reactivity as good quality SCMs can become limited in the future.

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.

This study was carried out to establish the preparation condition of muskmelon jam. A central composite design was applied to investigate effects of muskmelon paste content(40, 45, 50, 55, 60 g), fructose ratio of sugar(20, 35, 50, 65, $80\%$) and pectin addition(l, 2, 3, 4, 5 g). The maximum sugar content was 61.48 $^{\circ}$Brix in 41.04 g of muskmelon paste content, $48.10\%$ of fructose ratio of sugar and 2.12 g of pectin content. The maximum value of softness was 2.71 g in 45.06 g of muskmelon paste content, $79.46\%$ of fructose ratio of sugar and 2.71 g of pectin addition. The minimum value of jelly strength was $0.04\;g{\cdot}cm$ in 47.80 g of muskmelon paste content, $63.0\%$ of fructose ratio of sugar and 1.99 g of pectin addition. The maximum value of organoleptic overall palatability was 5.89 in 55.65 g of muskmelon paste content, $73.19\%$ of fructose ratio of sugar and 2.42 g of pectin addition. The optimum conditions predicted for each corresponding physicochemical and organoleptic properties of muskmelon jam were 55.2 g(muskmelon paste content), $76.3\%$(fructose ratio of sugar) and 2.5 g(pectin addition).

Response surface methodology (RSM) was used for analyzing the manufacturing process of Prunus mume extract-added vinegared red pepper paste (maesil chokochujang) with respect to sensory quality properties. Experiments were carried out according to a central composite design, selecting the amount of kochujang, amount of maesil extract, and type of sugar in the mixture as independent variables; sensory attributes such as flavor, taste, color, and mouthfeel viscosity as response variables. The polynomial models developed by RSM for sensory color and mouthfeel viscosity were highly effective to describe the relationships between the factors studied and the responses. The estimated response surfaces confirmed that the amount of kochujang had a positive effect on color (p<0.001) whereas the amount of maesil extract had a positive effect on mouthfeel viscosity (p<0.001). Increase in the amount of kochujang led to a sharp increase of the sensory score on color at all the maesil extract and sugar type levels. On the other hand, increase in the amount of maesil extract caused a sharp increase in the mouthfeel viscosity value regardless of kochujang concentration and type of sugar. The differences among samples made with different types of sugar were not significant (p>0.05).

The heat of hydration can be reduced through the use of retarding agents. Typical retarding agents include sugar and glucose. However, these significantly delay the setting of cement paste. For the efficient use of sugar and glucose for mass concrete construction, it is necessary to develop a technique that can provide a setting behavior equivalent to that of plain concrete. In this work, the temperature rise of cement paste was monitored with the addition of various retarders including sugar and glucose. Hydrated cement powder was made with a water to cement ratio of 5 in order to accelerate the retarded cement pastes. It was found that the addition of hydrated cement powder in retarded pastes reduced the maximum temperature of cement paste. The use of hydrated cement powder could also successfully reduce the time to reach the maximum temperature.

The purpose of this study was to screen desirable yeast strains for alcoholic fermentation of tomato paste without sugar addition. The moisture, crude protein, crude fat, ash, and soluble nitrogen contents of the tomato paste ($25^{\circ}Brix$) were found to be 67.33%, 1.90%, 0.03%, 0.02%, and 30.72%, respectively. Free sugars found in the paste were fructose and glucose. Most abundant free amino acids of the paste were glutamic, aspartic, and ${\gamma}$-aminobutyric acids. Total seven yeast strains (Saccharomyces cerevisiae KDH (TWA), S. cerevisiae Lalvin ICVD-47 (TWB), S. cerevisiae Lalvin RC-212 (TWC), S. cerevisiae Lalvin K1-V1116 (TWD), S. bayanus Lalvin EC-1118 (TWE), S. cerevisiae Enoferm (TWF), and S. cerevisiae DJ97(KCTC8842P) (TWG)) were tasted for alcohol fermentation of the tomato paste. The highest alcohol content (8.2%) and the lowest residual sugar content ($13.25^{\circ}Brix$) were observed in the tomato paste fermented using the S. cerevisiae Lalvin ICVD-47 strain (TWB) after 3 day and 4 day of fermentation, respectively. Sugar and reducing sugar contents, and pH of the tomato paste were not remarkably affected by the difference in yeast strains used, showing $13.25{\sim}13.45^{\circ}Brix$, 28.37~28.48 mg/mL, and 4.43~4.54, respectively, after 4 day of fermentation. Color and total acid content were significantly affected by the types of yeast strains and fermentation time, but the numerical changes were negligible. These results indicate that TWB would be the suitable strain for alcoholic fermentatiom of tomato paste based on its highest alcohol production and the lowest residual sugar content produced during fermentation.
