The objective of this study was to evaluate firmness, and sweetness index (SI) of tomatoes (Lycopersicum esculentum) by using hyperspectral imaging (HSI) in the range of 1000-1400 nm. The mean spectra of the 95 matured tomato samples were extracted from the hyperspectral images, and the reference firmness and sweetness index of the same sample were measured and calibrated with their corresponding spectral data by partial least squares (PLS) regression with different preprocessing method. The results showed that the regression model developed by PLS regression based on Savitzky-Golay (S-G) second-derivative preprocessed spectra resulted in better performance for firmness, and SI of tomatoes compared to models developed by other preprocessing methods, with correlation coefficients (rpred) of 0.82, and 0.74 with standard error of prediction (SEP) of 0.86 N, and 0.63 respectively. Then, the feature wavelengths were identified using model-based variable selection method, i.e., variable important in projection (VIP), resulting from the PLS regression analyses and finally chemical images were derived by applying the respective regression coefficient on the spectral image in a pixel-wise manner. The resulting chemical images provided detailed information on firmness, and sweetness index (SI) of tomatoes. Therefore, these research demonstrated that HIS technique has a potential for rapid and non-destructive evaluation of the firmness and sweetness index of tomatoes.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the firmness and the sweetness index (SI) of tomatoes with a hyperspectral imaging (HSI) technique within the wavelength range of 1000 - 1550 nm. The hyperspectral images of 95 tomatoes were acquired with a push-broom hyperspectral reflectance imaging system, from which the mean spectra of each tomato were extracted from the regions of interest. The reference firmness and sweetness index of the same sample was measured and calibrated with their corresponding spectral data by partial least squares (PLS) regression with different preprocessing methods. The calibration model developed by PLS regression based on the Savitzky-Golay second-derivative preprocessed spectra resulted in a better performance for both the firmness and the SI of the tomatoes compared to models developed by other preprocessing methods. The correlation coefficients ($R_{pred}$) were 0.82, and 0.74 with a standard error of prediction of 0.86 N, and 0.63, respectively. Then, the feature wavelengths were identified using a model-based variable selection method, i.e., variable importance in projection, from the PLS regression analyses. Finally, chemical images were derived by applying the respective regression coefficients on the spectral image in a pixel-wise manner. The resulting chemical images provided detailed information on the firmness and the SI of the tomatoes. The results show that the proposed HSI technique has potential for rapid and non-destructive evaluation of firmness and the sweetness index of tomatoes.

Hawthorn is widely distributed in Korea and has been used as herbal medicine for treating various cardiovascular disease, arteriosclerosis and hypertension in Korea. In order to select superior honey tree plant from Korea, the free sugar and organic acid in hawthorn fruits, including five Korean clones and four Chinese cultivars, were evaluated. We also compared these hawthorn fruits of five clones (selected from different area of Korea) with Chinese hawthorn cultivars. Glucose, galactose, fructose and sucrose were the major sugar components of hawthorn. In this study, we observed that sucrose, glucose and fructose content. The highest sucrose content of hawthorn fruit was 188.12g/100g in Daegeumseong cultivar. The sweetness index, which plays important role of taste, was also calculated from the content of sucrose, glucose and fructose. The contribution of each carbohydrate was calculated, based on the fact that fructose is 2.30 and sucrose 1.35 times sweeter than glucose. The highest sweetness of hawthorn fruit was 579.52 in Pocheon clone. Main organic acid detected in hawthorn fruit were citric acid, malic acid and shikimic acid. The highest citric acid and malic acid content in hawthorn fruit were 157.50g/100g (Pocheon 3) and 34.12g/100g (Daegeumseong), respectively. The results of this study would be helpful for using food and functional food products, due to the beneficial effects of free sugar and organic acid for human health such as antioxidants and anticarcinogenic properties.

The effects of xylitol and/or erythritol as the alternative ingredients to sugar on the quality characteristics of Yuza tea were studied. The relative sweetness of xylitol and erythritol to a 10％ sucrose solution were 1.10 and 0.71 respectively and there were no change after the addition of the acid and flavoring agent. The sensory characteristics of Yuza tea with xylitol were quite similar in many attributes to Yuza tea with sugar, while Yuza tea with erythritol had many undesirable attributes. Yuza tea with a mixture of xylitol and erythritol(1:1) was less sweet and less acceptable than Yuza tea with sugar. The consumer acceptance test showed that the overall acceptability of Yuza tea made with xylitol was similar to the Yuza tea with sugar. Adding sucralose to the Yuza tea with a mixture of xylitol and erythritol improved the sweetness and overall acceptability in the consumer acceptance test. The pH value of the erythritol Yuza tea was 3.16 and showed a significantly lower value than the 3.39 of sugar and xylitol. The refractive index of the sugar Yuza tea was the highest at 21.03$^{\circ}$Bx. The vitamin C content of Yuzachung with sugar was 34.5mg/100g and the dietary fiber content was 2,80g/100g. Xylitol Yuzachung showed the highest a and b values, but when it was diluted with water to make Yuza tea, the intensity of the color was not significantly different from the Yuza tea with sugar.

This study was performed to improve the quality index of paprika by assessment of instrumental test and sensory attributes. Red paprika (11 cultivars), orange paprika (9 cultivars), and yellow paprika (10 cultivars) were provided by GyeongNam (GN) and JeonBuk Agricultural Research and Extension Services (JB). We measured hardness and color values using a colorimeter and TPA as well as developed new terminology such as cucumber taste, grass taste, green pepper flavor and appearance (size, color size, color, and glossiness), texture (hardness, juiciness), and taste (sweetness, pungency, sourness) to describe paprika quality attributes by trained panels. a* value of red 'Nagano' cultivar provided by JB was significantly low, and only b* value of orange paprika was significantly different among the samples. In the case of yellow paprika, b* values were not significantly different, and hardness was significantly different. Overall color values were different among samples provided by GN. Oranos, orange paprika, L value, b value, and hardness were different among the samples. Bitterness was negatively correlated with sweetness and positively correlated with green pepper aroma (p<0.05). Overall acceptability was positively correlated with size, juiciness, and sweetness (p<0.01) and negatively correlated with pungent (p<0.05) and bitterness (p<0.01). In conclusion, negative attributes such as bitterness and pungentness as well as positive attributes such as size, juiciness, and sweetness must be considered as important factors for consumer preference and breeding of new cultivars.

본 연구에서는 시판 breakfast cereals의 품질 특성을 비교 검토하였다. Breakfast의 water absorption index(WAI)가 클수록 water soluble index(WSI)는 감소하는 경향을 나타내었으며, Bowl life는 WSI가 클수록 길어지는 경향을 나타내었다. 시판 breakfast cereals의 Bowl life는 제품의 WSI 이외에도 크기, 모양 및 조직 등의 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 품질 표현용어의 조사에 따르면 시판 breakfast cereals의 중요한 관능적 품질요소는 고소한 맛, 단 맛, 굳기, 부서지는 정도 및 먹은 후 입속에 남는 느낌으로 구분되며, 특히 부서지는 정도가 가장 중요한 요소임을 알 수 있었다. 단 맛과 고소한 맛은 강한 음의 상관관계를 나타내어 첨가물에 의한 단 맛 강화는 오히려 고소한 맛을 감소시켰다. 전체적인 관능적 품질은 색, 고소한 냄새, 고소한 맛과 강한 양의 상관관계를, 입안에서의 마찰 정도, 부착성, 첨가물 맛과는 강한 음의 상관관계를 나타내었다. 이들 결과로 미루어 볼 때 좋은 색과 고소한 맛, 바삭바삭한 조직감을 갖는 breakfast cereal이 좋은 품질의 제품으로 평가되었다.

Astree사의 E-Tongue을 이용한 상대적 단맛 평가를 위하여 검토한 7개의 센서 중 PKS 및 NMS 센서가 1차로 선정되었다. PKS 및 NMS 센서를 이용해 설탕을 비롯한, 과당, 포도당 및 자일리톨, 5%, 10% 및 15% 용액을 분석한 결과, 자일리톨 및 과당의 농도 증가에 따른 PKS 센서 감응도의 변화가 미미하여, 최종적으로 NMS 센서를 단맛 측정 센서로 선정하였다. 이들 감미료의 농도 중 5% 용액을 모든 센서를 활용한 PCA(주성분 분석) 통계 방법으로 처리한 결과에서는 DI (식별지수)값이 -0.1로 감미료 상호 간 구분이 힘들었으나, NMS 센서만을 이용한 상대적 센서 감응도는 농도에 관계없이 일정한 수치를 나타내었다. 과당 및 자일리톨의 상대적 센서 감응도는 각각 1.08 및 1.00으로 사람의 미각으로 측정한 문헌상 관능검사의 상대적 감미도 범위에 포함되었으나, 포도당의 경우는 0.99로 문헌상 상대감미도 0.5~0.75보다 높게 나타났다. 5%~15% 농도 범위에서 설탕 대비 3종 감미료에 대한 NMS 단일센서를 이용한 E-Tongue의 우수한 정밀성 (%RSD, 1.53~3.64%)을 고려할 때 향후 가당 음료 등에 대한 신제품 개발 및 품질관리 등에 관능검사를 대체할 수 있는 가능성을 확인하였다.

As one of study efforts to develop a food product that can satisfy the taste of modern people and increase the usage of the popular local product of walnut in the region of Chunan, the current study developed a no sugar added functional walnut-sulgi. The walnut-sulgi was manufactured by adding walnut powder into typical sulgi rice cake. While manufacturing the walnut-sulgi rice cake, the health beneficial sugar alcohol ingredient of sorbitol was added instead of commonly used sugar to specialize the walnut-sulgi as a functional rice cake. As the result of such effort, a soft and moist walnut-sulgi was produced. The color of the newly developed walnut-sulgi is white and has a pleasing taste, and its consumer acceptability was higher than the sugar added walnut-sulgi by showing much soft sweetness and textural properties. Considering the facts that sorbitol has a lower glycemic index (GI) than sugar and the content of unsaturated fatty acids that are insufficient in rice cake could be increased, the newly developed sorbitol added walnut-sulgi is thought to be an appropriate functional rice cake that can attractively appeal to obesity and diabetes concerning modern people.
