In sourdough fermentation, lactic acid bacteria perform important roles in the production of volatile and antimicrobial compounds, and exerting health-promoting effects. In this study, we report the probiotic properties and baking characteristics of Lactobacillus plantarum SPC-SNU 72-2 isolated from kimchi. This strain is safe to use in food fermentation as it does not carry genes for biogenic amine production (i.e., hdc, tdc, and ldc) and shows no β-hemolytic activity against red blood cells. The strain is also stable under simulated human gastrointestinal conditions, showing tolerance to gastric acid and bile salt, and adheres well to colonic epithelial cells. Additionally, this strain prevents pathogen growth and activates mouse peritoneal macrophages by inducing cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin (IL)-6, and IL-12. Furthermore, the strain possesses good baking properties, providing rich aroma during dough fermentation and contributing to the enhancement of bread texture. Taken together, L. plantarum SPC-SNU 72-2 has the properties of a good starter strain based on the observation that it improves bread flavor and texture while also providing probiotic effects comparable with commercial strains.

MOCVD(metal-organic chemical vapor deposition) copper thin film was annealed at various conditions and the eletrical properties and micro-structures were investigated to find the optimal annealing condition and its effect. Cu thin film annealed at Ar 1 torr, $400^{\circ}C$ had the most improved resistivity of 1.98 $\mu\Omega$cm, and texture; the ratio of $I_{(111)}/I_{(200)}$ was varied from 2.03 to 3.11, and Cu thin film annealed at Ar 1 torr, $450^{\circ}C$ had the largest grain size and uniformity. After the annealing, the EM(electromigration) test was followed to ensure the improved properties by annealing. Compare to other conditions, Cu patterns annealed at Ar 1 torr, $400 ^{\circ}C$ had the most improved properties when it came to the EM resistance, which was due to the low resistivity, the preferential evolution of texture to (111) plane, and the reduction of surface roughness of annealed copper film.

Sulgidduk samples containing 2, 4, and 8% red ginseng powder and a control[ED highlight - consider specifying what the control was, if 0%, then change to Sulgidduk samples containing 0(control), 2, 4 and 8%] were examined for moisture content, color, gelatinization properties, textural characteristics, and sensory qualities to determine the optimal ratio of red ginseng powder in the formulation. The moisture contents among the samples did not differ significantly. Specifically, they ranged from 39.64 to 40.69%, and increased as the red ginseng powder content increased. Additionally, the lightness decreased and the yellowness and redness increased as the red ginseng powder content increased. Evaluation of the gelatinization properties revealed that the, peak viscosity(P), hold viscosity(H), final viscosity(F), setback, and time to peak viscosity decreased with increasing red ginseng powder content, but the breakdown and temperature to peak viscosity did not differ significantly among samples[ED highlight - please ensure my changes are correct]. The hardness and adhesiveness decreased with increasing red ginseng powder content, as did the cohesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness; however, the springiness did not differ significantly among samples. Sulgidduk containing 4% red ginseng received the highest scores for flavor, taste, texture and overallquality. Based on the above results of the sensory and texture analyses, Sulgidduk containing 4% red ginseng had the highest quality[ED highlight - please ensure my changes are correct].

This study was carried out to investigate the changes in the quality properties of red pepper Yukwa (red pepper liquid fermented with lactic acid bacteria was added to the Yukwa) during the storage period. To determine the shelf life of red pepper Yukwa, the rice Yukwa (control) and red pepper Yukwa were stored at 15, 25, and $35^{\circ}C$ for 70 days. Also, the quality properties of red pepper Yukwa, such as acid value, peroxide value, texture, color, and sensory evaluation were measured. Although the acid value of rice Yukwa and red pepper Yukwa increased during storage, the red pepper Yukwa showed a lower acid value score (1.09mg KOH/g) than that (1.19mg KOH/g) of the rice Yukwa. Nevertheless, these values did not exceed the guideline maximum values of 2.0 g KOH/g specified in the Korean Food Code. The peroxide values of samples had significantly increased after 42 days. Especially, the peroxide value scores for the rice Yukwa and red pepper Yukwa were the highest at 146.49 and 126.79 meq/kg at $35^{\circ}C$, respectively. Hardness and brittleness in textural properties increased up to 70 days. The sensory values for the red pepper Yukwa for overall acceptance, taste;texture and appearance were the highest. The results indicated that by using the 'Visual Shelf life Simulator for foods' of the Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA) the shelf life of red pepper Yukwa is estimated to be 274.78 days.

This study compared the effects of autoclaving (AC; $121^{\circ}C$ for 15 min), gamma (GR), and electron beam irradiation (EB; 0-20 kGy) on the microbial, physicochemical, and sensory properties of ready-to-eat bulgogi during storage at $35^{\circ}C$ for 90 d. No viable cells were observed (p<0.05) upon AC, GR or EB at more than 15 kGy. However, adverse effects such as tenderization and deterioration of sensory properties were induced in bulgogi upon AC and high dose irradiation. Especially, the hardness and sensory qualities (texture and taste) of the AC-treated samples were extremely deteriorated (p<0.05). These results indicate that use of GR and EB (15 kGy) can ensure the microbial safety of bulgogi without compromising the hardness and sensory properties (texture, taste and flavor).

The aim of this study was to evaluate the physico-chemical, sensory, and microbiological properties of ready-to-eat Korean traditional seasoned beef ribs ("galbi-jjim") prepared by sous-vide/cookchill technology during storage at three different temperatures (4, 10, and $20^{\circ}C$). Beef short ribs marinated in soy sauce for 24 h at $3^{\circ}C$ were packed with vegetables under vacuum. Vacuum-packed beef ribs mixed with vegetables were heated at $90^{\circ}C$ for 90 min in a water bath, and then immediately chilled below $3^{\circ}C$ within 120 min in an ice slurry. Physicochemical (pH, water activity, TBARS, $L^*a^*b^*$ color, and texture profile), sensory (appearance, odor, flavor, texture, and acceptance) and microbiological (Coliform, Escherichia coli, food-borne pathogenic bacteria) properties of the samples were determined during storage at different temperatures. Results showed that pH, $a_w$, and sensory evaluation of products were not affected in any consistent way as a function of either storage duration or temperature. Coliform, E. coli and food-borne pathogens were not detected during storage at any temperature. However, TBARS significantly increased during storage period (p<0.05). Based on TBARS values, SV/CC "galbi-jjim" can be stored for 15 d, 12 d and 1 d at 4, 10 and $20^{\circ}C$, respectively.

The study produced a functional sponge cake added with 0~20% proportion of excellently functional flaxseed powder aimed at obtaining basic data for the possibility to develop new products through a physiochemical properties assessment and a sensual assessment of the product. The water content was the lowest in the control, at 27.63%, and the 5~20% water content following the increase in added flaxseed powder failed to display a significant difference (p<0.05). The pH of the dough was 6.77~6.44, and displayed a significant difference according to the added amount of flaxseed powder (p<0.05). The specific weight of the dough appeared to be 0.40~0.51, and displayed a significant increase according to the added amount of flaxseed powder. The DPPH radical scavenging activity of the sponge cake added with flaxseed powder was 12.8%, and the plot added with flaxseed powder displayed a significantly higher percentage of 22.34~55.57% than the control plot. Crumb color change had increased values for value a and value b, and a significantly decreased L value. Texture significantly increased according to the increase in hardness, gumminess, chewiness, and cohesiveness, while springiness significantly decreased. Sensual assessment displayed a high preference for the 10% flaxseed powder additive plot in all items including appearance, taste, color, flaror, softness, and overall acceptability. The assessment of physiochemical properties and sensuality of the sponge cake added with flaxseed powder revealed that 10% flaxseed powder is suitable as the optimum proportion.

To develop the high quality gluten-free rice products with health functionality and desirable texture with moistness, the physicochemical properties of extruded rice flours prepared from the mixture of germinated brown and white rices were investigated. The domestic organic Samgwangbyeo was used to make white and germinated brown rices. White rice (WR) was dried after soaked for 6 h at $15{\pm}3^{\circ}C$ and mixed with germinated brown rice (GBR) with different mixing ratios (100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75, 0:100). The operating conditions of twin screw extruder were 250 rpm of screw speed, $120^{\circ}C$ of barrel temperature, and 25% moisture content of rice flour. The ash, crude protein and crude lipid contents were significantly different (p<0.05) and those of extruded GBR were the highest values, but those of extruded WR were the lowest. The color difference of extruded WR based on white plate showed the lowest among them. The water binding capacity (334.16%), swelling power (8.83 g/g), solubility (33.13%), and total starch (79.50%) were the lowest in extruded GBR. The viscosities of all extruded rice flours by RVA were maintained during heating. The peak and total setback viscosities of extruded rice flours ranged 127-352 and 58.0-85.5 cP, respectively. The novel food biomaterial from germinated brown rice as well as white rice was developed by twin screw extruder. The extruded rice flours control the moistness to improve the texture and also have functional materials, dietary fiber, GABA, and ferulic acid, etc to increase quality of gluten free rice products.

Jeolpyon rice cake was made using buckwheat flour and measured its texture, color and sensory properties as follows. According to the amylograph guage test, rice flour was the highest in its initial pasting temperature $82.5^{\circ}C$. With 5% addition of buckwheat flour, it came to be $81.0^{\circ}C$ and became $79.5^{\circ}C$ at 10%, and $78.0^{\circ}C$ at 15%, which was lower than the control. And its maximum temperature at peak viscosity showed at $87^{\circ}C$ and it showed no difference in temperature according to the amount of buckwheat flour. The maximum value (peak point) was 690 BU in control and it increased following to the added amount of buckwheat flour, 710 BU in adding buckwheat flour 10% and 740 BU in 15% of buckwheat flour. In relating to the changes of texture, it became hard by the added amount of buckwheat flour because of decreasing cohesiveness and springiness, but increasing gumminess and brittleness. The hardness increased by adding with buckwheat flour through the freeze preserving period. But adding buckwheat flour of 10% decreased the hardness. Regarding the color value, lightness decreased by the adding buckwheat flour, but a and b value increased. As a result of the sensory analysis about Jeolpyon prepared with buckwheat flour, the most favoured ratio of buckwheat flour for color and preference was at 10%. In case of 15%, it was a little dark so it was not desirable. Based on the above test, the best combination ratio of buckwheat for Jeolpyon was 10%. And Jeolpyon can be easily made at home as well as mass production due to relatively simple making procedure.

The purpose of this study was to provide the basic information for bread with kinds of spice. The qualities of bread added with garlic, ginger, and cinnamon powder were investigated using sensory and mechanical evaluation. The result of sensory evaluation showed that the softness, color, brittleness, hardness, and chewiness of bread were increased as the amount of garlic, ginger and cinnamon powder increased. Lightness decreased by the addition of garlic, ginger and cinnamon powder, while redness and yellowness increased. Texture measurement showed that hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess and brittleness were the lowest in the breads with 1% garlic, ginger and cinnamon powder, and increased as the added amount of spice increased. A positive correlation was observed between the sensory and mechanical properties in general, while hardness and chewiness have negative correlation with sensory properties. Sensory properties of wheat flour odor, roasted taste, springiness and swelling were positively correlated with the acceptability. Breads with 1% garlic, ginger, and cinnamon powder showed a good overall preference.
