The quality and shelf life of noodles containing onion powder (0, 3, 5, and 10%) were investigated. The pH of raw noodles decreased by increasing the concentration of onion power. The weight, volume, and water absorption of the cooked noodles were comparable, irrespective of onion powder concentrations. Color L and a values of raw noodles decreased, while b value increased by addition of onion powder. However, no considerable differences in color values were observed among the control and onion noodle groups after cooking (p<0.05). The total polyphenol contents and DPPH radical scavenging activities of raw and cooked noodles increased with increasing onion powder concentrations, although the latter had lower values. In the aspect of texture, the control group showed higher hardness and chewness than those of noodle containing onion powder, except for springiness. The results of raw noodle storage at $10^{\circ}C$ for 12 days indicated that raw onion noodles, especially those with 5% onion powder added, could be preserved for at least 6 days longer than the control noodle. In the sensory evaluation of cooked noodles, no significant differences in appearance, taste, flavor, texture and overall acceptability were observed between the control and onion noodle groups. This study indicates that the addition of 5% onion powder could improve the functionality and shelf life of noodles.

Washed rice was coated by spraying aqueous dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) extracts at 20, 30, 40 $^{\circ}$Brix and dried at room temperature. The coating procedure was conducted 5 mL/min for 10min. Property changes in the dandelion coated rice and un-coated cooked rice were observed during 2 days of storage. Increasing the coating concentration was associated with lower color values (L, a value) and moisture contents. Sensory and texture properties generally decreased in the cooked rice coated with dandelion more than the control (non-coated rice). But, D-20(20 $^{\circ}$Brix of the dandelion concentration) resulted in better textural properties and sensory scores for hardness and overall acceptability in cooked rice. Compared to the control, the washed rice coated with 20 $^{\circ}$Brix for 0 and 2 days showed better quality in sensory activities, a lower gel consistency and better textural activities. It was concluded that the optimum coating ration of rice and added dandelion extract for cooking were 20 $^{\circ}$Brix and $5\%$ respectively, in proportion to the total weight of raw rice.

The effect of chitosan on the quality of processed milk was investigated to minimize the microbial spoilage occurred by contaminant bacteria and yeast. Yeast and bacteria isolated from commercial processed milk were identified as Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Pseudomonas fluoresence by Api 20C and 20E Aux kit, respectively. The growth of isolated yeast and bacteria inhibited in YM broth and TSB containing 0.03% chitosan at $25^{\circ}C$ and $37^{\circ}C$ for 24hour, respectively. Viable cells of processed milk artificially contaminated with Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Pseudomonas fluoresence were reduced about 2~3 l$og_{10}$ cycle by addition of 0.03% chitosan pH, acidity and total bacteria were changed from after storage for 10 day at $4^{\circ}C$, 7 day at 1$0^{\circ}C$ and 1day at $25^{\circ}C$in chitosan no added processed milk during storage for 15day. But, The change of physico-chemical and microbiological charcteristics could not observe in 0.3% chitosan added processed milk during storage 15 day at $4^{\circ}C$, 1$0^{\circ}C$ and $25^{\circ}C$, respectively. The sensory quality of processed milk with 0.3% chitosan was different significantly from control in taste, texture and overall acceptability(p<0.05).

This study investigated the effects of saltwort powder on the antioxidant activity and quality characteristics of patties added with saltwort powder. Patties were prepared with different amounts (0, 1, 2, and 3%) of saltwort powder. The total phenolic content, DPPH free radical scavenging activity, and pH of patties increased with increasing saltwort powder content (P<0.05). In particular, the moisture content and cooking loss of the group added with 2% saltwort powder were the highest and lowest, respectively (P<0.05). As the content of saltwort powder increased, $L^*$ and $a^*$ values decreased while $b^*$ value increased. Texture analysis showed that the hardness, chewiness, and gumminess of the control group were lower than those of the treated group (P<0.05). Consumer acceptability showed that 1% and 2% saltwort powder groups scored higher in terms of overall preference, appearance, color, taste, and texture compared to the other groups. Characteristic intensity rating of saltwort patties showed that as more saltwort powder was added, saltwort taste intensified; however, the increase did not affect juiciness, off flavor, or salty taste of the patties. Judging from the results, it was concluded that the addition of saltwort powder to patties in processing can enhance the preference, quality, and antioxidant activities of the patties, which elevates the value of patties.

The quality characteristics and processing of rice cake (Backsulgi) with rice flour containing Lactobacillus plantarum CGKW3 by spray-drying (LP-B) were investigated. The LP-B was applied at ratios of 10, 20, and 30 (w/w), and the moisture contents and pH were 33.39%~36.70% and 5.81~5.46, respectively. The L value of LP-B increased as the rice flour decreased, while the a and b value increased as the LP-B increased. The texture profiles showed that Backsulgi prepared with LP-B mixture had higher hardness, cohesiveness, springiness and chewiness than 100% rice flour. The pH of LP-B Backsulgi (LP-B20 and LP-B30) did not differ during 6 days at room temperature. The total bacteria in Backsulgi prepared LP-B20 and LP-B30 Backsulgi was $10^4CFU/g$ after 2 days of storage at room temperature. The shelf life of Backsulgi prepared with LP-B20 and LP-B30 were extended by about 2 days when compared with the control at room temperature. Sensory evaluation showed that Backsulgi without LP-B20 had higher scores in terms of appearance, color, flavor, taste, texture, hardness and overall acceptability than Backsulgi without 100% rice flour. In conclusion, the results demonstrate that LP-B20 may prove quite useful as a Backsulgi flour with desirable properties.

This study was carried out to investigate the total polyphenol content and DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity of hot water (EIW) and 80% ethanol (EIE) extracts of Enteromorpha intestinalis and the quality characteristics of Topokkidduk prepared with different amounts (0, 1, 3, and 5%) of Enteromorpha intestinalis powder (EIP). The total polyphenol contents of the EIW and EIE extracts were 2.04 and 6.73 mg tannic acid equivalents (TAE)/g, respectively. The DPPH radical scavenging activities of EIW and EIE were markedly increased in a dose-dependent manner, and were about 19.74% and 81.69%, respectively, at 10 mg/ml. The moisture content was higher at 0% EIP (p<0.05). The L value and the a value of Topokkidduk significantly decreased when the amounts of EIP increased (p<0.05), but the b value of Topokkidduk significantly increased when the amounts of EIP increased (p<0.05). Hardness, chewiness, adhesiveness, springiness, and brittleness increased with increasing EIP concentration. The cohesiveness was higher at 3% EIP, but no significant difference was noted between 0% and 1% EIP. The total polyphenol content and DPPH radical scavenging activity significantly increased upon addition of EIP (p<0.05). A sensory evaluation revealed a higher color, texture, and taste of Topokkidduk in groups containing 0% EIP, but the flavor was highest for Topokkidduk with 0% EIP added. Overall acceptability was higher at 0% EIP, but no significant difference was noted between 0 and 1%. These results suggest that Enteromorpha intestinalis has great potential as a source for natural health products.

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%.

This study was conducted to investigate methods of increasing raw ginseng consumption. To accomplish this, Insambob was prepared by adding minced raw ginseng (MRG), ground raw ginseng (GRG) or extracts of red ginseng (RGE). Sensory quality, textural properties, and changes in the ginsenoside and free amino acid composition of the Insambob then were investigated. Insambob containg 50% RGE had the best color, flavor and texture, but that containing 10% GRG had the best taste and overall acceptability. The hardness and adhesiveness were highest for containing 10% GRG and decreased as the amount of ginseng added increased. However, the hardness increased, while the adhesiveness of Insambob containg RGE decreased significantly as the amount added increased. Moreover, the ginsenoside composition changed upon addition of ginseng, with the levels of ginsenoside-Rb1, -Rb2, -Rb3, -Rc, -Re, -Rd, -Rg1, and -Rf decreasing and ginsenoside-Rh2, -Rh1, and -Rg3 newly appearing. Finally, the total free amino acid contents of Insambob increased upon addition of MRG, GRG and RGE.

The principal objective of this study was to assess the quality characteristics of noodles prepared at ratios of 0% (I), 1.4% (II), 2.8% (III), and 4.2% (IV) Dioscorea japonica powder, based on the wheat flour weight. The lightness of the uncooked and cooked noodles decreased significantly as the amount of Dioscorea japonica powder increased. The yellowness of the cooked noodles were reduced significantly, but the redness of all samples were significantly increased with increasing amounts of Dioscorea japonica powder. The rate of weight increase and volume increase of the noodles, as well as the density, pH, and turbidity of the soups were also assessed. The cohesiveness and gumminess of samples III and IV were significantly lower than those values in samples I and II. The results of our sensory evaluation test evidenced no significant differences in appearance and flavor among all samples. The colors of I and II were better than those of III and IV. The taste and texture scores of IV were the highest, and as a result the overall acceptability of III was most preferred.
