This study was conducted to investigate the antibacterial activity and shelf-life extension effect of iceberg lettuce packed in BN/PE film. The BN/PE film has a strong microbial suppression effect on pathogenic bacteria such as Escherichia coli, Salmonella enteritidis, and S. typhimurium. The number of psychrophiles and mesophiles during 5 days of cold storage of fresh-cut iceberg lettuce at $10^{\circ}C$ packaged in BN/PE film was strictly suppressed in comparison with other tested films (OPP, PE, and PET film). When fresh processed iceberg lettuce was processed and stored under the current conditions, the shelf-life of the product was longer than 5 days in the BN/PE film package, whereas the shelf-life when using the other films tested, PE, OPP and PET, was no longer than 3-4 days. The decay rates of the iceberg lettuce packed in the BN/PE film was maintained at $29.8{\pm}2.1%$ on the 5th day of preservation. The samples packed in BN/PE film maintained an excellent visual quality during the 3 days of storage without significant differences in comparison with the initial visual quality. No browning was observed in the samples packed in BN/PE film for up to 3 days. The texture of shredded iceberg lettuce packaged in BN/PE film remained unchanged up to 3 days, and then a moderate decrease in texture was observed after 4 days of storage. In addition, the overall acceptability of fresh-cut iceberg lettuce packaged in BN/PE film did not change for up to 3 days, whereas the samples packaged in the other films were inedible by 3 days of storage. In conclusion, the shelf-life of fresh-cut iceberg lettuce packaged in the BN/PE film was extended to more than 5 days at $10^{\circ}C$, whereas that in the other films was 2 days at $10^{\circ}C$. Therefore, the shelf-life extension effect of the fresh-cut iceberg lettuce in BN/PE film packaging was very effective compared with the other films tested.

Mulberry leaves noodles were prepared with composite flour by the addition of various levels of mulberry leaves powder of 100 mesh particle site. The characteristics of cooked noodle including color, texture, cooking properties were measured, and sensory evaluation was performed. The L and a values of cooked noodle decreased as more wheat flour was substiruted with mulberry leaves powder. And the b value of noodle containing mulberry leaves powder was higher than control, but b value did not increase as the ratio of powder increased. The increase in cooking weight and volume was greater with cooked noodles of higher content of mulberry leaves powder. The turbidity of soup and eluted solid content increased as the content of powder increased, indicating higher cooking loss. There was not much difference in hardness among cooked noodles, but cohesiveness and springiness decreased as the ratio of mulberry leaves powder increased, while adhesiveness increased. The results of sensory evaluation showed that cooked noodles containing 4% and 6% mulberry leaves powder were acceptable as much as wheat four noodle in terms of color, texture, taste and flavor. But the overall acceptability of mulberry leaves noodle was lower than wheat now noodle.
