This study examined the nutrient components and measured the physicochemical properties of 23 Korean sweet potato cultivars. The proximate composition, free sugars, organic acids, and dietary fiber of sweet potato were analyzed and the water binding capacity, oil absorption and pasting characteristics were measured. The proximate composition was the highest in Happymi and was higher in colored sweet potato than in general sweet potato (p<0.05). The sucrose content was the highest among the free sugars in the general cultivars and yellow/orange colored cultivar. The major organic acids were oxalic acid, citric acid, malic acid, succinic acid, fumaric acid, and acetic acid. Oxalic acid and citric acid were high in the purple colored cultivars and malic acid was high in yellow/orange colored cultivars. Each total dietary fiber content of the general and colored cultivars was 7.51-13.94 and 13.04-16.97%, respectively, but there was no significant difference. The water binding capacity and oil absorption of Juhwangmi was high in all cultivars (p<0.05). The peak viscosity of sweet potato powder showed highest a significant difference of 12.50-1342 cP (p<0.05). The breakdown of Sincheonmi was 512, which was the highest value (p<0.05). The setback of Geonpungmi was significantly low, 6.0 (p<0.05).

This investigation was undertaken for the purpose of studying the physicochemical properties of rice flour made by various soaking time(1,4,6,8,12 hours) of rice. As the soaking time was longer, the lightness of rice flours increased, on the contrary its redness and yellowness decreased. Rice flours had higher swelling power and solubility by increasing soaking time, but water binding capacity decreased upon soaking of rice. Hot water insoluble amylose of rice flours was decreased, whereas hot water soluble amylose was increased as the soaking time increased. The amylograph indices indicated that initial pasting temperature of rice flours decreased, while maximum viscosity increased as the soaking time increased.

The steeping of waxy rice in water at $20^{\circ}C$ for 12 hr resulted in the decrease of protein, crude fat and ash contents. Water-binding capacity and swelling power (at $80^{\circ}C$) of waxy rice flour increased upon steeping. Maximum viscosity of waxy rice flour in 0.19 N sodium hydroxide solution was increased up to 6 hr steeping and decreased thereafter. The amylograph indices increased as the steeping time increased. The degree of changes in properties during steeping was different between two waxy rice cultivars.

In this study, it was developed eco-friendly inorganic binding material concrete using ground granulated blast furnace slag and alkali activator (water glass, sodium hydroxides). Eight reinforced concrete beam using inoganic binding material concrete were constructed and tested under monotonic loading. The major variables were mixture ratio of alkali activator, type of admixture and admixture. Experimental programs were carried out to improve and evaluate the flexural performance of such test specimens, such as the load-displacement, the failure mode, the maximum load carrying capacity, and ductility capacity. All the specimens were modeled in scale-down size. The eco-friendly concrete using inorganic binding material encouraged alkali activation reaction was rapidly hardening speed and showed possibility as a high strength concrete. Also, the RC beams using new materials showed similar behavior and failed similarly with RC beam used portland cement. It is thought that eco-friendly inorganic binding material concrete can be used with construction material and product as a basic research to replace cement concrete. If there is application to structures in PC member as well as production of 2nd concrete product, it could be improved the productivity and reduction of construction duration etc.

Partial hydrolyzing condition for low-molecularized alginate and rheological properties such as viscosity, solubility, emulsitying ability, oil absorption capacity, bile acids binding and metal ion binding of the low-molecularized alginates from the sea mustard ( Undaria pinnatifida) and giant kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera) were investigated. Alginate from sea mustard was regularly hydrolyzed with the increase of HCl concentration in the range of 0.2 N to 0.5 N and with the prolonged reaction time at $100^{\circ}C$. The molecular weight of alginate was decreased to a part of 100 after hydrolysis for 50 min with 0.3 N HCl. The ratio of mannuronate to guluronate was increased with the acid hydrolysis and total yield was estimated to be $75\%\~80\%$. Low-molecularization of alginate was featured in the apparent decrease of viscosity, whereas solubility, emulsifying ability, and bile acids binding ability were increased with the low-molecularization. Oil absorption capacity of the acid$\cdot$alkali soluble alginate was slightly higher than that of the water soluble alginate. Metal ion binding capacity was the highest in acid$\cdot$alkali soluble alginate, and decreased with the low-molecularization.

Chestnut flours (CFs) were produced from 3 chestnut samples (Aydin, Kutahya, and Bursa) by 2 different methods (boiled and oven-dried: BOD-CF and freeze-dried: FD-CF). Functional properties and effects of CF addition (10, 20, and 30%) on the qualities of regular and low-fat cookie were investigated. The freeze drying significantly increased water solubility of CFs but decreased their water binding capacity. The emulsion capacity and stability of FD-CFs were higher than those of BOD-CFs. At pH 4, 6, 8, and 10 FD-CFs had better gelation properties. Spread ratio (SR) values of BOD-CF supplemented regular or low-fat cookies decreased with increasing CF levels. Hardness values of CF supplemented regular cookies were generally lower compared to control. SR and hardness values of FD-CF supplemented cookies were higher than those of BOD-CF supplemented ones. Surface colors of the cookies were darker with FD-CF addition as compared to BODCF addition. In low-fat cookies, the sample supplemented with 10% Kutahya FD-CF had the highest taste-flavor value. FDCF supplementation generally resulted in higher appearance and taste-flavor scores than BOD-CF supplementation in cookies.

To utilize shellfish by-products effectively, chitin, chitosan, and microcrystalline chitin were prepared from 6 kinds of crustacean shells(Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba; Red snow crab, Chinonecetes japonicus: Daelongsuyum shrimp, Solenocera prominentis: Lobster, Linuparus trigonus: Gasibal shrimp, Nephrops thomsoni: Blue crab, Portunus trituberculatus) and their functional properties were studied. Apparent volume(AV), settling volume(SV), water binding capacity(WBC), and fat binding capacity(FBC) of various chitins, chitosans, and microcrystalline chitins ranged from $3.1\pm0.1ml/g\;to\;27.0\pm0.2ml/g$ from $5.1\pm0.1ml/g\;to\;45.0\pm0.2ml/g,\;from\;318\pm40g/100g\;to\;2,382\pm12g/100g,\;and\;from\;235\pm20g/100g\;to\;2,169\pm20g/100g$, respectively, and the krill chitin and chitosan had the highest AV, SV, WBC, and FBC of them. Chitins and chitosans did not produce emulsion but microcrystalline chitins showed emulsifying properties. Emulsifying capacity and stability of various microcrystalline chitins ranged from $18.2\pm4.0\%\;to\;50.1\pm2.5\%\;and\;from\;15.2\pm3.5\%\;to\;31.1\pm1.0\%$, respectively. Dye binding capacity of microcrystalline chitins was higher than that of chitins or chitosans.

The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics of noodles with added Polygonati odoratum powder. Noodles' water binding capacity increased with increasing amounts of Polygonati odoratum powder. Solubility and swelling power increased with the temperature increasing proportionally to the amounts of added Polygonati odoratum powder. The gelatinization time decreased with increasing of Polygonati odoratum powder. The rate of weight increase and water absorption of cooking noodles decreased with increasing Polygonati odoratum powder. But the turbidity of the soup increased. With increasing Polygonati odoratum powder, L-values were shown to decrease and a and b value were increased. The results of sensory evaluation were that noodles containing under 5% Polygonati odoratum powder were rated as high-quality noodles.

This study investigated the effect of salt and glucono-${\delta}$-lactone (GdL) on the cold-set binding of restructured pork washed and pressurized at 200 MPa. Binding strength, PH, water holding capacity (WHC) and color were determined. NaCl improved pH, WHC and binding strength. GdL also increased binding strength while decreased WHC and pH significantly (p<0.05). However, low GdL level combined with NaCl showed high pH and WHC, compared to control. In color, NaCl decreased $L^*$-value with increasing $a^*$-value significantly (p<0.05). In contrast to NaCl, GdL increased $L^*$-value and decreased $a^*$-value. GdL tended to decrease $b^*$-value and significant differences were found when GdL was added above 1%. Pearson's correlation coefficients presented that NaCl had a significant effect on binding strength (0.6632) and lightness (-0.7330) while GdL had a significant correlation with all parameters barring binding strength. The results indicated that under washing and pressure treatments, GdL had a potential effect on cold-set binding with reducing NaCl concentration, especially when low GdL concentration combined with NaCl was added.

Physicochemical properties of potato starches oxidized with sodium hypochlorite containing 1.5, 3.0, 4.5, and 6.0% active Cl/g starch at pH 7.0 were examined. Carboxyl group contents of oxidized potato starches were proportional to active chlorine concentration in use and water binding capacity, alkali number, and solubility increased with increasing the degree of oxidation. Blue value and iodine binding property indicated the change of amylose structure by the oxidation. Gelatinization trends obtained from transmittance and DSC thermograms showed that gelatinization temperature was lower as starch was oxidized higher. X-ray diffraction patterns and scanning electron micrographs implied oxidation might occur on the surface amorphous regions of starch granule.
