This study compared the physicochemical characteristics, proximate composition, taste compound, and antioxidant properties of Sikhye prepared with berries. Proximate composition and color were significantly different depending on the type of berry, whereas crude fat content and pH were not. The highest brix degree was $18.92^{\circ}Bx$ in strawberry Sikhye. Total free sugar, glucose, and fructose contents were highest in blueberry Sikhye. Titratable acidity, total acidity, and organic acid contents were highest in raspberry Sikhye. Analysis of relative antioxidative properties indicated that bokbunja Sikhye had the highest total polyphenol, flavonoid, and anthocyanin contents, highest DPPH radical scavenging ability, and highest reducing power and ferric reducing abilities in plasma. Principal component analysis suggests that bokbunja Sikhye has strong antioxidant and sweetness properties.

A component of pine bark extract, pitamin, is known as an antioxidant and antimicrobial agent that exerts a variety of physiological effects; this compound has also been used widely in human beings. A 35-day trial was conducted to determine the influence of dietary pitamin premix via a sensory evaluation and evaluations of the TBARS, and meat quality in broiler chicken. We used 4 treatments groups: Control, Antibiotics, Pitamin premix 0.1%, and Pitamin premix 0.2%. The amino acid and protein contents in chicken breast muscle did not differ among the treatment groups. The pH of broilers fed on diets containing pitamin premix was lower (p<0.05) than broilers fed on the control and antibiotics diets, whereas the WHC was significantly higher in chicken breast muscles fed on the diet containing pitamin premix compared to the control and antibiotics groups (p<0.05). The TBARS is intended to be increased during the storage period (in days), and was significantly lower (p<0.05) in the chicken thigh muscles with skin from broilers fed on the diet containing the pitamin premix as compared to the control and antibiotics group (p<0.05). The sensory evaluation of boiled chicken, with the exception of the antibiotics group, revealed significantly better results from chickens fed on diets containing pitamin premix than the control group (p<0.05). These results suggest that dietary pitamin premix may improve the shelf life, flavor, taste, and meat quality in broiler chicken.

The physicochemical and sensory characteristics of rice wine, Yakju, made with different additions of red yeast rice (0, 10, 20, 30, and 40%) were investigated. The pH of the rice wine decreased and the total acidity increased with greater additions of red yeast rice. Furthermore, the total sugar content increased and the alcohol content decreased with increasing amounts of red yeast rice. The color L-value diminished and the color a- and b-values increased with increasing amounts of red yeast rice. Among the volatile flavor compounds, esters, aldehydes, alcohols, and acids were the most important aroma-active compounds identified in the rice wine. The sample with the 10% red yeast rice addition had the highest ester content, which is a primary component in fruit fragrance. The highest overall acceptability values in the sensory test for color, flavor, taste, and overall favorite were 5.10, 5.75, 5.15, 4.65, and 4.50, respectively, with the addition of 10% red yeast rice.

To prepare high-quality fast foods using salmon, this study developed a docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)-enriched salmon patty, and compared its quality with soybean oil-added patty and commercial patty. The moisture and lipid contents of the DHA-enriched patty were 61.9% and 7.7%, respectively. The moisture content was lower than in the commercial patty, while the lipid content was higher. The lipophilic and hydrophilic browning indices of the DHA-enriched patty were 0.10 and 0.05, respectively, which were lower than those of the commercial patty. The DHA-enriched patty had 5% less trichloroacetic acid (TCA)-soluble nitrogen than the commercial patty, and it was firmer. There were no differences in the proximate composition, browning indices, TCA-soluble nitrogen content, and hardness between the soybean-added and DHA-enriched patties prepared in this experiment. Examining the fatty acid compositions of the patties, the saturated acid and monoenoic acid compositions decreased in the following order: DHA-enriched patty > soybean oil-added patty > commercial patty, while the polyenoic acid composition increased in that order. The total amino acid content of the DHA-enriched patty was 19.13 g/100 g, which was 32% higher than that of the commercial patty (14.47 g/100 g). No enriching effect of minerals would be expected on eating a 100 g DHA-enriched patty, except for phosphorus. The sensory evaluation indicated that the DHA-enriched patty was superior in color and taste to the commercial patty, while there was no difference in flavor between the patties.

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.

The effects of bamboo salt on quality of traditional Jeju fermented fish, $Jari-Jeot$ were investigated. Bamboo salt suppressed the activity of microorganism more effectively than salt. pH of $Jari-Jeot$ prepared with both of salt and bamboo salt increased gradually during storage. During fermentation there were little changes in color between salt and bamboo salt fermented $Jari-Jeot$. Salinity did not show obvious differences between samples. Water content increased in salt and bamboo salt fermented $Jari-Jeot$ due to the decrease of salinity. Hypoxanthine was the major component of ATP-related compounds in both salt and bamboo salt fermented $Jari-Jeot$. In $Jari-Jeot$ fermented with salt or bamboo salt, lysine, glutamic acid, proline, alanine, leucine, isoleucine, arginine and histidine were dominant amino acids which marked 69%~74% of total free amino acids, while trace amounts of taurine were detected.

The objective of this study was to investigate the chemical properties of fermented youbsak sauce to use as a source of the flavor and taste enhancement for kimchi preparation. The pH and total acidities of fermented youbsak sauce were not greatly changed during fermentation. The contents of volatile basic nitrogen and amino type nitrogen were gradually increased during one year fermentation, from 63.7 mg% to 224.8 mg% and from 352.5 mg% to 851.7 mg%, respectively. Acid value were increased until 120 days of fermentation and then it was slightly increased up to 44.3. In fatty acids composition, saturated fatty acids were slightly increased during the fermentation, but unsaturated fatty acids were gradually decreased. Palmitic acid was the most abundant fatty acid and followed by oleic acid, palmitoleic acid, myristic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid. The major amino acids in the early stage of fermentation were arginine, glutamic acid, alanine, leucine and valine, while fermentation progress, the amounts of glutamic acid, lysine, phenylalanine increased. Finally, glutamic acid, lysine, phenylalanine, arginine and alanine became the major amino acids after one year fermentation.
