This study was carried out to evaluate the correlation between shear force determined by tenderness analyzer and grade decision factors consisting of yield grade (carcass weight, ribeye area, backfat thickness) and quality grade (meat color, fat color, marbling, maturity, texture) in a total of 200 Hanwoo cows. Results showed that there was a negative correlation between shear force and yield grade (r=-0.186, p<0.01), i.e., when the grade of carcass yield increased (A score), the shear force value decreased. Shear force scores showed a significant correlation with marbling scores (r=-0.19, p<0.01), but no correlation with scores of meat color, fat color and texture. The maturity of Hanwoo cows is known to be one of the major factors for evaluating the grade, and the maturity showed no significant correlation with shear force value (r=-0.05, p>0.05). It is possible to get useful information for evaluating the grade of Hanwoo cows if further studies addressing the correlation of water holding capacity, juiciness, taste and overall acceptability with maturity are carried out.

In this study, we investigated the effects of ripened tomato on the Baechukimchi fermentation, by measuring sensory, physicochemical, and microbiological properties during fermentation up to 28 days. The Baechukimchi, with various levels [0, 10, 20, 30%(w/v)] of ripened tomato, was fermented at $10^{\circ}C$. The product containing 20% ripened tomato showed the highest scores for overall acceptability, sour taste, texture, sour smell, and color. The intensity characteristic scores related to sour smell and sour taste were the highest in the control, and the texture score was highest in the 20% ripened tomato sample. During fermentation, total acidity increased while pH gradually decreased. The reducing sugar and total vitamin C contents of the experimental groups with added ripened tomato were higher than those of the control. Also, the time periods to reach maximum levels of lactic acid bacteria, by log numbers of cells and total viable cells, were more delayed in the experimental groups with added ripened tomato than in the control. Overall, the results indicate that a 20% addition of ripened tomato to Baechukimchi during fermentation can enhance sensory qualities and extended the palatable period of the product.

In order to develop a sanitary and economic storage method for chicken carcass by gamma-irradiation, the samples irradiated with 5 to 10 kGy were stored at 3 to $4^{\circ}C$ for 41 days, and the changes in ordour, appearance and the cooking guality of stored samples were determined. The nonirradiated samples which stored for more than 7 days were not tested because of microbial spoilage on the chicken carcasses. However, the quality of irradiated groups of 5 to 10 kGy was similar to that of fresh chicken for about 15 days though it deteriorated slightly after 20 days, however, they were still acceptable to eat each after 27 days of storage. The overall acceptability, flavor and texture was not significantly different in the samples of nonirradiated those of irradiated immediately and those of irradiated and then stored for 15 days when they were prepared for Sam Gei Tang arid steamed chicken. The acceptibility of Sam Gei Tang prepared with chickens after 15 days of the storage, the irradiated groups of 8 and 10 kGy showed a similarity to the chickens prepared immediately after slaughter. In steamed chickens prepared with the samples stored for 15 days texture of the irradiated group was superior to that of the nonirradiated fresh chicken, and there were no statistical differences in the flavors between each group.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of the muffins with garlic paste. Four different paste concentration levels of 0, 40, 80 and 120g were added to 200g flour to make the muffin. In terms of color, the lightness and yellowness of the muffin increased and redness decreased with increasing amounts of garlic paste. Among the textural characteristics hardness, springness, cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness were increased according to the addition level of garlic paste. However, there were no significant differences in hardness and springness of the muffin. For the sensory evaluation, appearance, flavor, taste and texture of the muffin was not significantly different than the control group. The appearance, taste, texture and overall acceptability were excellent in the group with the addition of 40g garlic paste. From the results of this study, the muffin with 40g garlic paste added content was shown to have the best quality.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of ramie leaf powder on the quality characteristics of pork patties. The moisture, crude protein, crude fat, and crude ash in freeze-dried ramie leaf powder were found to be 4.67% (w/w), 25.61% (w/w), 6.66% (w/w), and 16.88% (w/w), respectively. Pork patties were prepared by adding varying amounts of ramie leaf powders up to 1.5% (w/w) of the pork patty formulation. The moisture contents of meat patties containing ramie leaf powder were lower than that of the control patty, but there was no significant difference in pH values between the patties. With increasing amounts of ramie leaf powder, chromaticity decreased in brightness ($L^*$) and redness ($a^*$), but increased in yellowness ($b^*$) in the raw patties. In texture analysis, hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, and chewiness of the pork patties increased as more ramie leaf powder was added to the pork patties. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) values increased during storage in pork patties without ramie leaf powder, but those formulated with ramie leaf powder showed lower TBARS values than those in the control groups. Sensory panels determined that pork patties containing 0.5% ramie leaf powder had higher scores for overall acceptability.

In this study, the effects of adding cheese in the manufacture of rice cakes having 5 different vegetable-derived natural coloring materials were investigated with respect to quality characteristics during storage. Rice cake samples were prepared without (control) or with the addition of 2.0%, 3.0%, or 4.0% cheese. Changes in pH, external appearance, total solid content, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), texture and sensory characteristics were monitored during storage. The sensory and texture characteristics of the rice cakes with cheese were investigated with respect to color, flavor, and overall acceptability. The total solid content and pH of the cheese-treated rice cakes were higher than that of the control during storage. Rice cakes added with cheese had higher liquid flavor than control. Results revealed that rice cakes added with cheese at less than 4% addition had the best taste, appearance, and sensory properties. Moreover, the addition of cheese to five-colored rice cakes provides additional nutrients while maintaining flavor and quality.

Changes in the textural properties of rice cookies as a result of using roasted soybean flour (RSF) as an additive were investigated in this study. RSF was replaced as 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 and 20% of 100 g of rice flour. The addition of RSF increased the hardness of dough and cookies as measured by texture analyzer (TA), whereas moisture content of dough and cookies decreased upon addition of RSF. Further, the addition of RSF led to an increase in the L value of dough and cookies, but to a decrease in the a and b values. In addition, the bulk density of cookies decreased upon addition of RSF, whereas bulk density of dough also declined when compared to control. The spreadability of cookies was found to be lower in comparison to control. The values of ${\Delta}bulk$ densities (BD) and ${\Delta}hardness$ of cookies also increased upon addition of RSF. From the point of view of sensory evaluation, addition of 9% RSF to rice cookies showed the highest score in terms of overall acceptability and softness. A 12% RSF addition to rice cookies led to the highest score in sandiness. As a result, we conclude that the crispy texture of the rice cookie can be improved by adding RSF.

This study was carried out to investigate the characteristic quality of jeungpyun added Paecilomyces japonica with different fermentation time. The volume of jeungpyun added Paecilomyces japonica was more increased after fermentation. The volume was decreased when the fermentation was progressed. The pH was 5.1 before fermentation and the pH decreased when the fermentation was progressed. Moisture content was more increased as the time of fermentation became longer. Hunter color test, L value and b value appeared the highest after 1st fermentation, and it appeared lesser when the time of fermentation became longer. In measurement of texture, hardness showed the highest value when 90 minutes passed after the 2nd fermentation. Gumminess and brittleness were tend to increase when it have longer fermentation time. In scanning electron microscopic observation, organization of sponges was tend to break down as the fermentation time was longer. Sensory properties showed that color intensity was more strong when second fermentation was progressed, and hardness, toughness, sourness were high when the fermentation time was longer. In conclusion overall acceptability of jeungpyun, 3$0^{\circ}C$, 3 hours after 1st fermentation and 2nd fermentation for 30 minutes, 35$^{\circ}C$ showed the most preference.

This study investigated methods to improve the quality of Topokkidduk using grapefruit seed extracts and acid regulation agents. Topokkidduk was investigated in terms of its moisture, color, pH, texture, microbial composition, and sensory properties. The moisture content of Topokkidduk was highest for Topokkidduk supplemented with grapefruit seed extracts. The color of Topokkidduk (the L value) decreased, whereas the "a" value increased with the addition of grapefruit seed extracts. The texture of Topokkidduk was affected more by additives than storage temperature. The addition of grapefruit seed extracts and acid regulation agents were effective for the inhibition of microbial activity in Topokkidduk during storage. The overall acceptability values of Topokkidduk (without supplements) were highest among the samples. These results suggest that grapefruit seed extracts and acid regulation agents can be used to control microbial load and moisture levels in Topokkidduk.

The quality characteristics (specific gravity, viscosity, color, texture and sensory evaluation etc.) of yellow layer cake added with black garlic powder were examined in order to use as a new functional food ingredient of black garlic powder. Specific gravity of cake batters was not affected by addition of black garlic powder. Viscosity (31,315~41,048 cP) of cake batters was increased as the addition level of black garlic powder increased. pH (7.54~6.18) and height (6.14~5.62cm) of cakes were decreased as the addition level of black garlic powder increased. Specific volume of cakes did not show any significant difference except the cake with 15% black garlic powder. In color of cake crust, crumb and batter, lightness (L) and yellowness (b) were decreased as the addition level of black garlic powder increased, while redness (a) was increased. Hardness and adhesiveness of cakes decreased as the addition level of black garlic powder increased Overall acceptability was the highest in yellow layer cake with 5% black garlic powder.
