The purpose of this study is to make a correlation analysis between mechanical characteristics and sensory characteristics of puffer fish fillet under storage conditions and to find out those quality characteristics. With the storage time, VBN increased while color, smell and texture values decreased. As the appearance, the fish showed excellent quality stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for 8-12 hours, at $12^{\circ}C$ for 4-8 hours and at $20^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours. When the L value increased, color preference in sensory results decreased in correlation physicochemical properties, mechanical properties and sensory properties of puffer fish fillet. However, mechanical properties and sensory evaluation showed a different aspect. When the higher temperature, redness(a-value) decreased. Regardless of storage temperature, yellowness (b-value) increased. In the results of the hardness, the value was higher, the sensory showed the better texture.

The sensory properties in Alaska pollack sikhae were compared in 3 different temperature conditions, 5$^{\circ}C$, 20$^{\circ}C$ and alternating temperature(stored at 5$^{\circ}C$ after 10 days of fermentation at 20$^{\circ}C$), respectively, during fermentation. The change of instrumental texture including hardness, cohesiveness, adhesiveness and chewiness increased and/or decreased without significant difference in the sikhae fermented at 5$^{\circ}C$ during fermentation. Three profiles, hardness, chewiness and cohesiveness in the sikhae fermented at 20$^{\circ}C$ increased up to 12 day and then decreased, whereas those in alternating temperature decreased significantly. From the acceptance test during fermentation, sikhae products fermented for 14 days at 5$^{\circ}C$, 9 days at 20$^{\circ}C$ and 13 days at alternating temperature were superior in sensory properties. The score more over 5 point in overall acceptance was maintained until 14 days in 5$^{\circ}C$, 9 days in 20$^{\circ}C$ and 13 days in alternating temperature, respectively, and particularly, alternating temperature condition was superior to the different temperature conditions. The sensory texture and overall acceptance had the high positive correlation with chewiness and taste, respectively. From the result of quantitative descriptive analysis, the intensities of acidic odor and taste in alternating temperature maintained and/or increased during 27 days of fermentation, whereas those in sikhae fermented at 5$^{\circ}C$ decreased. These results demonstrated that cold chain system such as alternating temperature was needed for shelf-life extension and producing of marketable Allaska pollack sikhae.

The composition and polymeric structure of starch are the most important factors to determine the functional properties of rice. In an effort to relate the structural characteristics and its functional properties of starch in rice, molecular structural properties of starch from 6 rice cultivars were analysed. To relate the structure and function of starch the texture of Jeung-pyun made of rice were analyzed during retrogradation. The polymeric structure of rice starch was analyzed by debranching with isoamylase after gelatinization and fractionated with Sephadex G-75 gel filteration. The size fractionated debranched starch was categorized into four groups such as Fraction I, II, III and Intermediate Fraction depending in their max, The fractions with the max higher than 620 nm were designated as Fraction I, while those in the range of 600-620 nm and 540-600 nm as the Intermediate Fraction and Fraction II, respectively. The Fractions with the max lower than 540 were described as Fraction III. The average degree of polymerization (DP) of the Fraction I was estimated to be higher than 200, and those of other fractions, i.e. the Intermediate Fraction I, Fraction II and III were 150,45 and 25, respectively. The levels of Fraction I were varied from II to 35％ of total sugar. The Fraction I showed the linear relationship with the amylse contents, and the Intermediate Fraction, which might contain the mixture of short chain of amylose and debranched long chain of amylopectin, were measured to be in the range of 2.7∼8.4%. The levels of fraction II and III, both to be considered as the branches of amylopectin, were ranged 14.5∼23.6% and 39.7∼73.0%, respectively. The ratio of Fraction III to Fraction II describing the degree of branch or compactness of amylopectin was estimated to be around 4.0 for waxy varieties and around 2.0 for high amylose cultivars. With these results, it can be suggested that the degree of branch of the amylopectin may effect on amylose contents of starch or rice versa, To invertigate processing aptitude of different rice cultivars for the preparation of Jeung-pyun, its texture was analyzed by Instron, hardness, cohesiveness, elasticity, gumminess and chewiness of Jeung-pyun made of rice showed the significant relationship with the amylose content. Hardness was increased during retrogradation of product, but the relationship between hardness and amylose content due to not only difference in amylose content but also difference in structural characteristics of starch. In analysis of relationship between structure of rice starch and mechanical properties of Jeung-pyun during retrogradation elasticity did not show any relationship before retrogradation bur during retrogradation showed significant correlation. With these result, it can be suggested that the degree of branch of the amylopectin may effect on elasticity during retrogradation. However hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness which were significant different before retrogradation, showed some correlation with structure of rice starch during retrigradation.

In this paper, a novel fibrous material known as axially reinforced braided composite rods (BCRs) have been developed for reinforcement of soils. These innovative materials consist of an axial reinforcement system, comprised of longitudinally oriented core fibres, which is responsible for mechanical performance and, a braided cover, which gives a ribbed surface texture for better interfacial interactions with soils. BCRs were produced using both thermosetting (unsaturated polyester) and thermoplastic (polypropylene) matrices and synthetic (carbon, glass, HT polyethylene), as well as natural (sisal) core fibres. BCRs were characterized for tensile properties and the influence of core fibres was studied. Moreover, BCRs containing carbon fibre in the core composition were characterized for piezoresistivity and strain sensing properties under flexural deformation. According to the experimental results, the developed braided composites showed tailorable and wide range of mechanical properties, depending on the core fibres and exhibited very good strain sensing behavior.

In this report, the physical and chemical properties of Che-ju aggregates were stedued, and the properties of concrete using 5 types combinations of Che-ju aggreagtes were compared with those of concrete using Dag-jeon area aggreagtes. As a result of the properties of Che-ju aggregates are very different with Dae-jeon area aggregates in many aspects. Especially, entrained air content of aggregate is over 1.5% so that the freezing & thawing resistance of concrete was caused in decrease. And the texture properties of Che-ju aggregates and a little content of the entrained air in mortar increase bonding stress between mortar and aggregate, as a result in improving the compressive strength of concrete. Meanwhile, the relationship between cement water ratio(C/W) and 28days compressive strength of concrete(F28) is derived from the stastical regression using experimental data as $F_{28} = -99 + 276 *($(C/W), so this eqation is useful for mix-design of concrete in Che-ju area.

We evaluated chemical, sensory and mechanical properties of breads containing different amount of Paecilomyces japonica powder to provide the basic informations for the development of functional bread. The pH of dough with 2% Paecilomices japonica powder was the highest but the pH of dough with 3% Paecilomices japonica powder was the lowest. Baking loss rate of bread added 3% Paecilomices japonica powder was the lowest but that of bread added 1% Paecilomyces japonica powder was the highest in that. The result of sensory evaluation showed that bread added 1% Paecilomices japonica Powder was significantly more preferable in chewiness, mouth feel, texture quality and overall quality. Sensory properties of softness, wheat flour odor, moisture, and mouth feel were positively correlated with the acceptability. Mechanical properties of hardness and chewiness had negative correlation with sensory properties, but springiness, gumminess and brittleness had positive correlation with those. The results of various measurements and evaluations showed that the quality of bread containing the Paecilomices japonica powder could be well accepted organoleptically. And this in turn proves the possibility of functional bread by use of Paecilomices japonica.

The effects of low viscosity chitosan on the rheological properties of soymilk using a model system and on tofu qualities were examined. The flow behavior of soy milk with chitosan closed the Newtonian flow and stabilized according to increasing chitosan concentration. The soymilk containing $glucono-\delta-lactone$ exhibited a more pseudoplastic flow behavior compared with that of the control soymilk. The addition of low viscosity chitosan to the tofu preparation did not significantly affect its physicochemical properties. However, the results of the TEM image and instrumental textural properties showed that low viscosity chitosan affected the construction of the tofu structure. Chitosan tofu had low scores across the whole field of appearance in the sensory evaluation, and its overall eating quality was scored significantly lower. These results suggest that the addition of low viscosity chit os an affects the quality of tofu, which changes according to the degree of polymerization and concentration of chitosan.

Injulmi, a kind of traditional Korean sticky rice cakes, was prepared with the mixed flours of waxy and black rices in different ratio(0% to 25% black rice flour), and their quality properties were studied. In the sensory evaluation, the best acceptance was shown in the samples with 15% black rice flour. The scores for hardness, coarseness. chewiness, and flavor were increased as the added amount of black rice flour increased. The moisture content of the samples ranged from 43 to 45%, and it was increased as the added amount of black rice flour increased. In color value, lightness(L value) was 27.43∼65.63. The redness(a value) was -2.01∼4.74, and the yellowness(b value) was -1.40∼4.59. The redness and blueness were increased by the increase of black rice flour. In the texture properties, the increase of added black rice flour increased the hardness, chewiness, and gumminess of Injulml, but decreased the adhesiveness. Based on the results, the optimal recipe for Injulmi added black rice flour was to make with 85% waxy rice flour ant 15% black rice flour.

This study was performed to determine the optimal composition of a muffin administered dried burdock powder and oligosaccharide. The experiment was designed base on CCD (Central Composite Design), and evaluation was carried out by means of RSM (Response Surface Methodology), which included 10 experimental points with 3 replicates for the two independent variables burdock powder and oligosaccharide. The experimental muffin was made according to a traditional recipe, except that the flour was partially replaced with dried burdock powder (5%, 15%, 25%) and the sugar was partially replaced with oligosaccharide (25%, 50%, 75%). The compositional and functional properties of the prepared products were measured, and these values were applied to the mathematical models. Using the F-test, volume, height, pH, yellowness, chewiness, resilience, springiness, cohesiveness, taste, and overall quality were expressed as a linear model, whereas lightness, redness, adhesiveness, color, flavor, and overall quality were expressed as a quadratic model. The polynomial models developed by RSM for sensory evaluation, color, flavor, texture, taste, and overall quality were highly effective in describing the relationships between the factors (p<0.01). The estimated response surfaces confirmed that the amount of burdock powder had significant effects on color, taste, texture, flavor, and overall quality (p<0.01), whereas and the amount of oligosaccharide had significant effects on color and texture (p<0.01). Increased amount of burdock powder led to reductions of the sensory scores for color, taste, texture, flavor, and overall quality at all oligosaccharide levels. The optimal mixing percentage of burdock powder and oligosaccharide muffin were determined to be 5.00% and 46.25%, respectively.
