This study was conducted to investigate the effect of chestnut inner shell powder on antioxidant activity and the quality characteristics of cookies. Cookies were prepared with different amounts of chestnut inner shell powder(in ratios of 0, 0.5, 1, 3 and 5% to the flour quantity). The antioxidant activity was estimated by DPPH free radical scavenging activity and the total phenol content in chestnut inner shell powder and cookies. For analyzing quality characteristics, bulk density and pH of the dough, spread factor, loss rate, leavening rate, color, texture profile analysis, and sensory evaluations were measured. The spread ratio, a values, total phenol contents and DPPH free radical scavenging activity of cookies significantly increased with increasing chestnut inner shell powder(p<0.001), while the pH of the dough, L values and b values of the cookies significantly decreased with increasing chestnut inner shell powder content(p<0.001). The consumer acceptability score for the 3% chestnut inner shell cookie groups ranked significantly higher(p<0.01) than those of the other groups in overall preference, flavor, taste and color. From these results, we suggest that chestnut inner shell is a good ingredient for increasing the consumer acceptability and the functionality of cookies.

In this paper, we present new scheme for image coding which efficiently use the relationship between the properties of spatial image and its wavelet transform. Firstly an original image is decomposed into several layers by the wavelet transform, and simultaneously decomposed into 2$\^$n/ ${\times}$ 2$\^$n/ blocks. Each block is classified into 3 regions according to their property, i.e., low activity region(LAR), midrange activity region(MAR), high activity region(HAR). Secondly we are applied texture modeling technique to LAR, MAR and HAR are encoded by Stack-Run coding technique. Finally our scheme Is superior to the Zerotree method in both reconstructed image Quality and transmitted bit rates.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of mulberry leaf powder on the antioxidant activity and the quality characteristics of maejakgwa (a Korean traditional cookie). Maejakgwa was prepared with different amounts of mulberry leaf powder (in ratios of 0, 3, 6, 9 and 12% to the flour quantity). The antioxidant activity was estimated by DPPH free radical scavenging activity and the total phenol content in mulberry leaf powder and maejakgwa. For analyzing the quality characteristics, bulk density and the pH of the dough, moisture contents, color, texture profile analysis and sensory evaluations were measured. The total phenol contents, DPPH free radical scavenging activity, bulk density of the batter and the a values of maejakgwa significantly increased with increasing mulberry leaf powder, whereas the pH of the batter, L values and b values of the maejakgwa significantly decreased with increasing mulberry leaf powder content. Finally, the results of the acceptance test indicated that maejakgwa containing 6% mulberry leaf powder had the highest scores. From these results, we suggest that mulberry leaf is a good ingredient for increasing consumer acceptability as well as the functionality of maejakgwa.

In this study, we investigated the quality and antioxidant activity of blueberry-pyun (traditional Korean jelly using blueberry) according to different ratios of blueberry juice (100%, 80%, 60%, 40%, and 20%). Moisture and pH significantly decreased as the content of blueberry juice increased (p<0.05). As the amount of blueberry juice decreased, the lightness (L) decreased. At the same time, the redness (a) and yellowness (b) were significantly higher (p<0.05). DPPH radical scavenging activity and anthocyanin contents increased significantly when the amount of blueberry juice increased (p<0.05). In the texture profile analysis, hardness decreased as the content of blueberry juice increased. There were no significant differences in springiness. 20% blueberry juice showed the highest gumminess and chewiness. During sensory evaluation, 60% blueberry juice showed the highest in the appearance, color, sweetness and overall-acceptability. From these results, we conclude that blueberry-pyun made of 60% blueberry juice is the most desirable.

This study was carried out to investigate the quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of the black sesame Dasikadded spirulina (0, 10, 20, 30%). Black sesame Dasik with 30% spirulina showed a higher moisture content compared to control. L, a and b values of Hunter color system were decreased significantly according to the addition of spirulina (p<0.05). Hardness and gumminess analyzed by TPA (Texture profile analyzer) were increased significantly according to the addition of spirulina (p<0.05). The antioxidant property of black sesame Dasik increased according to the addition of spirulina: IC50 values of DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) and hydroxyl radical scavenging activity of the control was 112.3 g/mL and 56.2 mg/mL, respectively, whereas those of Dasik with 30% addition of spirulina was 58.2 mg/mL and 45.7 mg/mL, respectively. Sensory evaluation results showed that the overall acceptability was not significantly different up to 20% addition of spirulina, compared to that of the control. Based on these results, it was suggested that the addition of spirulina to black sesame Dasik was appropriated up to 20% for quality improvement with antioxidant activity.

In relation to making tofu with red ginseng extract, the effects of added red ginseng extract on the storage and antioxidant activity of tofu were investigated. When red ginseng extract was added in $0.5%{\sim}2%$ of dried soybean, differences in texture, color and sensory properties were compared. The textural properties of tofu slightly increased depending on the added amount of red ginseng extract in terms of the hardness and springiness: significant difference was demonstrated in the tofu with 2% red ginseng extract, and the color properties also significantly increased in terms of the values of L, a, and b. As a result of sensory evaluation, although the preference to color tended to diminish, as the peculiar taste of red ginseng was significantly perceived, the overall preference did not show any statistical difference. Therefore, the addition of red ginseng extract may be interpreted as not having negative effect on the preference of consumers. There was no change at the early stage of storage in pH, turbidity and total microbial count when the tofu was stored at $15^{\circ}C$. However, the changes in pH and in turbidity, and total microbial counts according to the addition of red ginseng extract took place from the second day and from the sixth day of storage, respectively, suggesting that the shelf-life of tofu may be extended due to its antimicrobial effect. Especially, the highest antimicrobial effect was observed tofu with 2% red ginseng extract. Concerning the antioxidant activity of tofu using oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay, the antioxidant activity significantly increased along with the increase in concentration of red ginseng extract. In ORACOH.assay, the pro-oxidant activity was shown in the tofu added with red ginseng extract.

For efficient massive image retrieval, an image retrieval requires that several important objectives are satisfied, namely: automated extraction of features, efficient indexing and effective retrieval. In this work, we present a technique for extracting the 4-dimension directional feature. By directional detail, we imply strong directional activity in the horizontal, vertical and diagonal direction present in region of the image texture. This directional information also present smoothness of region. The 4-dimension feature is only indexed in the 4-D space so that complex high-dimensional indexing can be avoided.

Glycosidase activities in the grape flesh (Marguerite) were assayed, and the order of activity was marked as follows: ${\alpha}$-D-galactosidase>${\alpha}$-D-mannosidase>${\alpha}$-D-glucosidase>${\beta}$-D-galactosidase>${\beta}$-D-glucosidase. Of these glycosidases, ${\alpha}$- and ${\beta}$-D-galactosidases were prominently expressed by the treatment of gibberellic acid, resulting in 56 and 238% increase of activity, respectively. Most of ${\alpha}$-D-galactosidase was found in the flesh texture, and the activity increase by gibberellic acid occurred mostly in this tissue. The increase in ${\alpha}$-D-galactosidase activity was dependent on the concentration of gibberellic acid treated, showing a positive correlation. Gibberellic acid affected the content of total protein in the grape flesh, 49% increase by 75 ppm treatment. Above this concentration, higher gibberellic acid level did not influence the protein expression. Specific activity of the ${\alpha}$-D-galactosidase still increased, showing 24% increase in activity. Grape flesh subjected by gibberellic acid (100 ppm) resulted in the increased activity against a natural substrate, stachyose, showing 55% increase in activity from the grapes treated with 100 ppm of gibberellic acid. Other natural substrates, such as melibiose and raffinose, were also considerably hydrolyzed, and the extent was similar to that of stachyose hydrolysis. During postharvest storage, ${\alpha}$-D-galactosidase activity in the grape flesh increased by 51% after 20 days and then declined slowly.
