This study was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary quercetin on feed utilization, blood parameters, and meat quality of Korean native goats. Totally sixteen Korean native goats, 15 kg of average BW aged at 7 months, were employed in the experiment with eight replicates per treatment. One group was fed quercetin at 200 mg/kg level and the other group was fed none as control for 15 days. Dietary inclusion of quercetin did not affect feed intake, water intake, and the amount of urine and feces. Digestibilities of crude fat, NDF, and ADF for 5 days were not affected, but digestibility of crude protein was increased by the dietary inclusion of qurecetin (P<0.05). Quercetin increased rumen total VFA, propionate, and butyrate significantly (P<0.05). Acetate/propionate ratio (A/P) in the quercetin treated group was significantly higher than control. 2,2-Azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) ($ABTS^+$) reducing activity of the loin from goat fed quercetin was higher than that of control. Sensory analysis conducted at 24 hr post mortem revealed that color, texture, and overall acceptability of the loin from goat fed quercetin were significantly preferred to that of control. Feeding quercetin did not influence pH, water holding capacity, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, TBARS value, and fatty acid composition of the loin significantly. In conclusion, the dietary inclusion of quercetin increased the digestibility of crude protein, rumen total VFA, propionate, butyrate, and A/P ratio. In addition the higher color and texture preference and ABTS+reducing activity of loin indicating some beneficial effect on enhancement of meat qualityin goats.

This study aimed to suggest the usability and optimal amount of Orostachys japonicas in foods. Orostachys japonicus powder was added at 0% (Con), 3% (O3), 5% (O5), 7% (O7), and 9% (O9) to rice muffins and the quality and antioxidant characteristics of the muffins were determined. The moisture content and pH of the muffins decreased as the amount of Orostachys japonicus powder added increased. The weight increased as the amount of Orostachys japonicas powder added increased, but the volume, specific volume, and baking loss rate decreased. The L-and b-values of the muffins decreased as the a-value increased. The texture, hardness, gumminess, and chewiness of muffins increased while adhesiveness, springiness, and cohesiveness decreased. Polyphenol, flavonoid, DPPH, and ABTS⁺ radical scavenging activity, as well as reducing power, increased as the amount of Orostachys japonicus powder added increased. In the sensory test, the 5-7% addition group showed high scores in appearance, flavor, taste, texture, and overall preference. The degree of flavor and astringency of muffins, which are evaluation items for characteristic strength, increased as the amount of Orostachys japonicus powder added increased, and the level of moistness decreased. Therefore, the addition of 5-7% of Orostachys japonicus powder is thought to have a positive effect on the muffins. The purpose of this study was to suggest the usability and optimal addition amount of Orostachys japonicus powder and to provide basic data on foods with Orostachys japonicus added.

The purpose of this research is to investigate Chinese's preference and directions for improvement of Kimchi by sensory evaluation, and utilize Kimchi for the China eating habit by survey. Self administered questionnaires were collected 149 Chinese (16~25 yr) residing in Shanghai. About 89.9% of all the participants had eaten Kimchi before the survey. Overall preference about Kimchi was 3.59$\pm$0.62 (5 point: Lickertis scale) and affecting factors for overall preference were taste, appearance, texture, in that order. Chinese answered that tough texture (24.9%), spicy taste (20.5%) and fermented odor (18.1%) were the most important factors in improved quality of Kimchi. They answered that applications of Kimchi with Chinese cuisine are 'side dish with meat cuisine', 'eat with cooked rice, rice-mixed-in-soup, gruel' and 'use ingredients of cook', as similar to Korean's.

The physiological and microbiological characteristics of various mul-kimchis prepared with omija (Schiznadra chinensis) water extract (1, 2, 3 v/w%) (omija mul-kimchi ) or water (control) were investigated during fermentation for 21 days at $10^{\circ}C$. The pH of omija mul-kimchi was lower than that of control and lowered with increasing the concentration of omija between 1% and 3%. The pH did not change significantly during fermentation in omija mul-kimchi compared with control. The changes in titratable acidity were similar in pH. The change of total microbs and lactic bacteria during fermentation was similar in various mul-kimchis and the viable cell numbers in omija mul-kimchi were lower than in control. The viable cell of mul-kimchi decreased with increasing the concentration of omija water extract. The texture of various mul-kimchi such as hardness, cohesiveness, chewiness and springiness, was decreased but the texture of 1% omija mul-kimchi was maintained significantly higher than that of control during fermentation. The DPPH radical and nitrite scavenging activity of omija mul-kimchi were higher than those of control and the activities increased with increasing concentrations of omija water extract. The sensory quality of 1% omija mul-kimchi showed the highest value in taste and overall acceptability among the tested mul-kimchis.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of white bread and added 2%, 4%, 6%, or 8% Hallabong powder. Dough pH of the control group was 5.65, and it decreased as increasing amounts of Hallabong powder were added. Also, total titratable acidity of dough significantly increased with increases in Hallabong powder. The fermentation power and dough expansion significantly increased with increasing incubation time; the control was highest at 98.67%. White bread pH, specific volume, and baking loss decreased significantly as with increased Hallabong powder content. The bread moisture content was not significantly different between samples, differing only from 40.61~41.83%. Water activity was 0.960 Aw in the 6% Hallabong powder mixture, which was the highest in samples. In color, lightness of crust significantly decreased with increased Hallabong powder content, whereas redness showed the reverse effect. Lightness of crumbs significantly decreased, with increased Hallabong powder content, whereas redness and yellowness showed the reverse effect. In texture, hardness and fracturability significantly increased, while resilience showed the reverse effect. In the sensory evaluation, citrus flavor, bitterness, astringency, and off-flavor significantly increased with increased Hallabong powder content, and the control sample showed the highest score in color, flavor, softness and overall acceptability. The 2% and 4% samples showed more than average scores. Based on these results, Hallabong powder could be considered a functional material. The optimum amount of Hallabong powder to add for baking bread would be 2~4%.

Cheonji, the largest caldera lake in Asia, is located at the summit of Baekdu Mountain. Cheonji is covered with snow and ice for about six months of the year due to its high altitude and its surrounding environment. Since most of the sources of water are from groundwater, the water temperature is closely related to the volcanic activity. However, in the 2000s, many volcanic activities have been monitored on the mountain. In this study, we analyzed the dimension of ice produced during winter in Baekdu Mountain using Sentinel-1 satellite image data provided by the European Space Agency (ESA). In order to calculate the dimension of ice from the backscatter image of the Sentinel-1 satellite, 20 Gray-Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) layers were generated from two polarization images using texture analysis. The method used in calculating the area was utilized with the Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm to classify the GLCM layer which is to calculate the dimension of ice in the image. Also, the calculated area was correlated with temperature data obtained from Samjiyeon weather station. This study could be used as a basis for suggesting an alternative to the new method of calculating the area of ice before using a long-term time series analysis on a full scale.

We investigate the quality characteristics and free radical scavenging ability of yanggaeng prepared with different amounts of grape juice (GJ). GJ was incorporated into yanggaeng at different levels (containing 50, 100, 150, and 200 g of GJ in yanggaeng, respectively) based on the total weight of water. Sugar contents showed a significant increase; however, pH showed a decrease with increasing levels of GJ. In terms of color, lightness and yellowness decreased significantly but redness increased with increasing levels of GJ. In a texture profile analysis, hardness were increased; however, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness decreased with increasing levels of GJ. Total polyphenol content and 1,1-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity increased significantly as the GJ concentration increased in the formulation. The sensory evaluation indicated that yanggaeng containing the 150 g level of GJ showed the best preference in terms of color, taste, texture, flavor, and overall acceptance. These results suggest that grape juice may be a useful ingredient in yanggaeng to improve quality and antioxidant potential.

The Cretaceous volcanic rocks in the study area represented by andesitic rocks occupy eastern part of the Kyeongsan Caldera. The volcanic rocks comprise andesite I, andesitic tuff, andesite II, and andesitic tuff breccia in their stratigraphic succession, and andesitic porphyry. Andesite I is distinguished from andesite II in their color, texture, phenocryst mineralogy and petrochemisty. In outcrops, andesite I is compact and dark-green, and andesite II is brick red in color and porphyritic in texture. In their phenocryst mineralogy, andesite I contains olivine phenocryst in addition to plagioclase and pyroxene which occur in both of andesites. Compared to andesite II, andesite I is higher in $SiO_2$ and $K_2O$ contents and lower in CaO, MgO, MnO, $TiO_2,\;Fe_2O_3$, and $P_2O_5$. Major elements petrochemistry shows that magma series of the volcanic rocks spread widely from calc-alkaline to alkaline series. On the other hand, immobile trace elements petrochemistry shows that the magma series is calc-alkaline without exception, suggesting that the volcanics has experienced more or less alkali enrichment after their eruption. Trace element diagrams for discrimination of tectonic setting show that the volcanics of the study area might be originated from calc-alkaline continental volcanic arc.

The feasibility of counting number of small vessels and position in Korean waters using the panchromatic imageries derived from the IRS-1C was tested. The parameters for interpretation of satellite's imageries of small vessels were location(position), size, shape, shadow, tone, texture and pattern, height and depth, situation and association with other vessels. The position of small vessels in the sea without GCP(ground control point) was considered to be inclusive in the satellite imagery with 35 km semi-diameter, denoting rough geographical position of the vessel. The size of vessel was measured by length from stem to stern of the vessel, distinguished by following wave on the surface water. Offshore fishing vessels were separated from merchant ships by their length smaller than 100 m. The shape of vessels on panchromatic imagery of IRS-1C appeared just streamline. In case of clouds which were similar to the shape of small vessels, we were able to distinguish between vessel and cloud by shadow of cloud in the water surface. The tone of sea surface was dark black while small vessel appeared bright white. Small vessel was distinguished from the rough texture of the sea surface and the regular pattern of the waves with white capes when weather was not so good. The situation of the fishing activity was estimated by information of fishing method related to the fishing boat such as the pair trawl in the Yellow Sea.
