This study investigated quality characteristics and sensory properties of gluten-free bread using teff flour and various gums. The five samples used in this study were control (wheat flour), T (teff flour), TG (teff flour, guar gum), TX (teff flour, xanthan gum), and TGX (teff flour, guar gum, xanthan gum). Baking loss, moisture content, pH, salinity, brix, dough expansion, color value, texture property, and sensory property were measured for each sample. As a result, pH was the highest in TX at 6.11 and the lowest in the control at 5.77. Salinity was the highest in the control at 0.80% and lowest in TG at 0.04%. Brix was the lowest in TX at $1.10^{\circ}Bx$. While moisture content was the highest in the control at 43.58%, gluten-free breads using teff flour had no significant difference (p<0.05). Baking loss rate of bread was no significant difference among samples (p<0.05). Dough expansion rate by fermentation was the highest in the control at 108.89% and the lowest in T at 17.84%. L-value of crust had no significant difference (p<0.05). For L-value of crumb, the control was the highest at 64.34 and T was the lowest at 33.84. In texture properties analysis, hardness was the highest in TGX at 16.00 N and the lowest in the control at 2.87 N. There was no significant difference in springiness (p<0.05). Chewiness was the highest in TX and TGX. The result of sensory properties was that while there were no significant differences in color, salty taste, flavor, and overall acceptability, there was a significant difference in softness and sweetness (p<0.05). These results showed that use of teff flour and gums rather than using only teff flour for bread manufacturing can improve quality characteristics in dough expansion and texture properties. It is considered that xanthan gum or guar gum are appropriate on bread using teff for quality characteristics.

In this study, we investigated the quality properties and sensory evaluation of pudding added with peach (Prunus persica L. Batsch) juice and gelatin. The water content and pH of pudding decreased with increased peach juice content, whereas the sugar content increased. Further, the water content of pudding decreased with increased gelatin content, whereas the pH was constantly maintained and the sugar content slightly increased. Regarding the color of pudding, the L and b values decreased with increased peach juice content, whereas the L value increased with increased gelatin content. Regarding the texture of pudding, hardness and springiness decreased with increased peach juice content, whereas adhesiveness, chewiness, and cohesiveness all increased. All texture properties increased with higher gelatin content. In the sensory evaluation of color, flavor, taste, texture, and overall preference, pudding with 60% (w/w) peach juice and 1.5% (w/w) gelatin showed the highest values. These results demonstrate the possibility of using high value-added products for peach processing in the food industry, as the addition of peach juice and gelatin enhanced the quality and sensory properties of pudding.

Cysteine, a thiol group-containing reducing agent which is known to relax the strain and increase the viscosity of dough, was added to Korean and imported wheat flour noodles to investigate the effect on the properties of raw, dried, and cooked noodles and to determine the optimum cooking time and amount to improve the color of noodles. Addition of cysteine up to 1% of flour (8.25 mmole/100 g flour) was not effective in increasing the brightness of raw and dried noodles and in changing the water activity of dried noodle. However, cysteine improved the brightness of cooked noodle made of both Korean and imported wheat flours. Also, there were notable differences in cooking and sensory properties of cysteine-added cooked noodles such as less firm and stickier texture due to the extraction of organic compounds into broth. When the noodles were cooked for their optimum cooking time, no difference was noticed in the texture and overall preference regardless of the addition of cysteine. Overall, the addition of 1 % cysteine increased the brightness of cooked noodles and reduced the cooking time.

This study was performed to evaluate the effects of chicken breast meat on the quality of mackerel sausages. The mackerel sausages were manufactured by additions of 5%, 7%, and 10% of chicken breast meat. The lightness of mackerel sausages showed no significant differences between the control and addition groups. The redness increased in a dose-dependent manner, but the yellowness decreased significantly with the addition of 7% chicken breast meat (p<0.05). The whiteness value of mackerel sausage added with 7% chicken breast meat was significantly higher than those of the other groups (p<0.05). In texture analysis, the hardness and adhesiveness of the mackerel sausage added with 5% of chicken breast meat showed no significant differences as compared to the control. However, the mackerel sausages added with 7% and 10% of chicken breast meat showed a dose-dependent decrease. The gel strength of the mackerel sausage added with 5% chicken breast meat was not significantly different from the control, but the addition of 7% and 10% chicken breast meat reduced the gel strength of the mackerel sausage. In sensory evaluation, the mackerel sausages prepared with chicken breast meat have higher scores in smell, taste, texture, hardness, chewiness, and overall preference as compared to the no addition group. Therefore, these results suggest that the optimal condition for improving the properties within mackerel sausages was 5% addition of chicken breast meat.

The effect of NaCI content levels(1.7, 2.2, 2.7 and 3.2%) on the ripening of a dry sausage was studied, when starter culture and Glucono-delta-Lacton were used. During the ripening of sausages, the physical and chemical properties and the microbial mutiplication were investigated, and also the growth of inoculated Staphylococcus aureus was detected, pH values were slowly decreased and Aw values dropped fastly during ripening period with the increase of NaCl content. In instrumental texture examination, the texture of sausage with NaCl content of 3.2% was significantly harder and more cohesive than those with lower NaCl contents. During ripening St. aureus was decreased by one tenth and not significantly different among mixtures with different NaCl contents. Depending upon reducing NaCl levels, total bacteria and Lactobacilli grew rapidly, while Enterobacteriaceae decreased slowly during ripening.

The roof tiles from the tomb in Baekje Kingdom of the Danjiri site in Gongju, Korea were studied for the production techniques and raw material provenance based on archaeometric characteristics. The roof tiles had traditional shapes of Baekje Kingdom, which show flow texture on the surfaces and sections with the roof tiles of hard or soft-type. These roof tiles were locally produced, using refining soils according to mineralogical and geochemical characteristics. Also roof tiles were divided to 2 groups by firing temperature and physical properties. One of them had soft with porous texture and fired probably about 700 to $900^{\circ}C$. The other had hard with vitrified texture and probably fired about 940 to $1,020^{\circ}C$. Buried for long time and used as a tomb, roof tiles had experienced chemical alteration due to the enrichments of trace elements abundant in human tissues.

In this paper we proposed the block-based color image segmentation method using the cylindrical metric to solve the problems such as long processing time and over segmentation due to noise and texture properties in the conventional methods. In the proposed method we define the new similarity function and the merge condition between regions to merge initial regions with the same size considering the color and texture properties of chromatic and achromatic regions which is defined according to the HSI color values, and we continue to merge boundary blocks into the adjacent region already segmented to maintain edges until the size of block is one. In the simulation results the proposed method is better than the conventional methods in the evaluation of the segmented regions of texture and edge region, and we found that the processing time is decreased by factor of two in the proposed method.

Properties of pant surimi derived from porcine longissimus muscle were investigated Rapid glycolysis of muscle reduced yield $\%$ of water-washed pork and moisture $\%$ of pent surimi because of ie lower ultimate pH. Gel Hardness was significantly (p<0.05) higher in pork surimi from rapid glycolysis muscle, but springiness was higher (p<0.05) in pork surimi from normal glycolysis muscle. SDS-PAGE pattern showed denaturation of sarcoplasmic proteins onto myofibrillar proteins in rapid glycolysis muscle, resulted in dark color and hard texture of pork surimi. Color and texture of gels were related with water-holding capacity of muscle proteins and moisture $\%$ in gel matrix. Results imply that glycolysis rate of porcine muscle at postmortem could affect gel properties of pork surimi, and muscle with rapid glycolysis muscle could produce a hard texture of pork surimi and dark color.

This study was conducted to determine the relationships of five intragenic single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers (protein kinase adenosine monophosphate-activated ${\gamma}3$ subunit [PRKAG3], fatty acid synthase [FASN], calpastatin [CAST], high mobility group AT-hook 1 [HMGA1], and melanocortin-4 receptor [MC4R]) and meat quality traits of Duroc breeding stocks in Korea. A total of 200 purebred Duroc gilts from 8 sires and 40 dams at 4 pig breeding farms from 2010 to 2011 reaching market weight (110 kg) were slaughtered and their carcasses were chilled overnight. Longissimus dorsi muscles were removed from the carcass after 24 h of slaughter and used to determine pork properties including carcass weight, backfat thickness, moisture, intramuscular fat, $pH_{24h}$, shear force, redness, texture, and fatty acid composition. The PRKAG3, FASN, CAST, and MC4R gene SNPs were significantly associated with the meat quality traits (p<0.003). The meats of PRKAG3 (A 0.024/G 0.976) AA genotype had higher pH, redness and texture than those from PRKAG3 GG genotype. Meats of FASN (C 0.301/A 0.699) AA genotype had higher backfat thickness, texture, stearic acid, oleic acid and polyunsaturated fatty acid than FASN CC genotype. While the carcasses of CAST (A 0.373/G 0.627) AA genotype had thicker backfat, and lower shear force, palmitoleic acid and oleic acid content, they had higher stearic acid content than those from the CAST GG genotype. The MC4R (G 0.208/A 0.792) AA genotype were involved in increasing backfat thickness, carcass weight, moisture and saturated fatty acid content, and decreasing unsaturated fatty acid content in Duroc meat. These results indicated that the five SNP markers tested can be a help to select Duroc breed to improve carcass and meat quality properties in crossbred pigs.

Effects of addition of sorghum flour on the quality properties of wheat flour muffin were investigated. Initial pasting temperature and peak viscosity on amylograph increased with the concentrations of sorghum flour added, but final viscosity decreased. The lightness values decreased with the increase of sorghum flour contents in muffin, but redness values increased. The sorghum flour addition at 10% level did not affect the volume of muffin, but the volume of muffin containing 30% sorghum flour was significantly decreased compared to that of control. Most of texture parameters such as hardness, adhesiveness, gumminess and chewiness were not affected by the addition of sorghum flour up to 20% level. As results of sensory evaluation, appearance and flavor of muffins by addition of sorghum flour differed significantly from the control, but there were no differences among the muffins containing sorghum flour at 10, 20, and 30% levels. Texture of 10% sorghum flour muffin was similar to that of the control, but there was a significant difference in texture by 30% sorghum flour addition. However, taste and overall acceptability did not differ significantly up to 30% level.
