The effects of phytase and cellulase treatment on the bioavailability of iron, calcium, and zinc in whole wheat flour and their food applications were evaluated in this study. Whole wheat flour was treated with phytase and cellulase either individually or in combination and incubated at 50℃ for 2 h; the concentrations used for the individual enzymes were 2%, 10%, and 20%. The concentration of the combination enzyme was 20% with a mixing ratio of 5:5. Total dietary fiber and phytate contents were reduced as the concentrations of phytase and cellulase increased. The bioavailability of iron, calcium, and zinc was notably improved after in vitro digestion in 20% cellulase, combination enzyme, and 20% phytase, respectively. Muffins made with cellulase- and phytase-treated whole wheat flour showed improved quality and bioavailability of minerals. Phytase- and cellulase-treated whole wheat flour may be useful for development of functional food products with improved bioavailability of minerals.

Physiological and sensory characteristics of breads prepared with the flour substituted with leek powder were evaluated. Leek powder contained 34.6% total dietary fiber. Substitution of wheat flour with 2% and 3% of leek powder decreased loaf volume by 13 and 27%, respectively. Moisture content was slightly increased and staling rate during storage at 25oC decreased in breads with leek powder. The addition of leek powder slighty increased hardness of fresh bread, but did not affect hardness of stored breads. Breads with leek powder turned into greenish and had characteristic flavor. Nontheless, no significant differences were observed between control and that with 2% of leek powder in sensory evaluation.

Few spring sowing have been conducted on winter cereal crops for whole-crop silage use. Experiments were conducted during 2007 and 2008 at the Chungnam Agricultural Research & Extension Services. The objectives of this study were compared the spring sowing with the optimum season's sowing on growth, yield and feed quality in five winter cereal crops. The treatments consisted of 5 winter cereal crops, Youngyang (Barley, Spring habit I), Keumkang (Wheat, Spring habit II), Gogu(Rye, Spring habit estimated III), Shinyoung (Triticale, Spring habit estimated III), Samhan(Oat, Spring habit estimated II), and 3 planting dates, 18 October (optimum season's sowing), 23 February and 10 March in spring. Heading days as affected by spring sowing compared to optimum season sowing were delayed by 16~20 days in barley, wheat, rye and triticale, and 9 days in oat. The clipping dates at the optimal harvesting stage of each crop for round-baled silage in spring sowing was 8 June (yellow ripe stage) in barley, 25 May (10 days after heading) in rye, and 17 June in wheat (yellow ripe stage), triticale (milky stage) and oat (milky stage). The accumulative temperature from emergence to heading was significantly decreased as affected by spring sowing compared to optimum season's sowing, but that of sowing to emergence and that of heading to maturing was similar. The rate of spikes per tillering surveyed at each clipping date was 62.0-73.1 percent in barley, wheat, triticale and oat, and 56.0 percent in rye compared to that of optimum season sowing. The dry matter yield in spring sowing compared to 18 October was obtained about 71.7 percent in barley, 60.6 percent in wheat, 46.2 percent in rye, 70.2 percent in triticale and 110.9 percent in oat. It were increased in acid detergent fiber (ADF), neutral detergent fiber (NDF) and crude protein content, but decreased in digestible dry matter content(DDM) and relative feed value (RFV). The yield of DDM by spring sowing was decreased in barley, wheat, rye and triticale, but increased in oat. The yield of dry matter and DDM were higher in oat and triticale than that of barley, wheat and oat. So, regardless to clipping dates and cropping system, the appropriated crop for spring sowing was oat, and subsequently triticale and barley. It was not adopted for spring sowing in rye because of low rate of no. of spikes per tillers and yield. It was necessary eliminated winter growing nature by earlier sowing at the late of February after overwinter.

This study was carried out to investigate the optimal harvesting time, feed value and fermentation quality of barley and wheat for the making of chopped whole crop silage substitute for formula feed. As a result, the moisture content of barley and wheat decreased with a late harvest, and barley progressed faster than wheat. The plant height was similar with harvesting time, and the number of spikes decreased with prolonged period after heading. The dry matter yield and TDN yield of barley harvested at 35 and 40 days after heading were significantly higher than those at 30 days after heading and wheat was significantly higher at 40 and 45 days than at 35 day after heading(p<0.05). Crude protein content of barley and wheat were increased with later harvesting time, and crude fiber, crude fat and crude ash were slightly decreased, but not statistically significant. NDF and ADF content of barley decreased with later harvesting time, and those showed similar level in wheat. TDN content of barely was slightly increased but there was no difference in wheat. Comparing the effects of fermentation on feed value of chopped whole crop silage, the approximate compositions were slightly increased after fermentation, but the difference was not significant. Fermentations resulted in increasing the pH value of barley silage with late harvesting time, but decreasing the lactic acid content(p<0.05). A pH value of wheat silage showed similar level in different harvest time, and lactic acid content was decreased. Considering the quantity and quality of fermentation, barley and wheat can be used for making chopped silage of whole crop silage when they were harvested at 35 days and 40~45 days after heading, respectively.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the quality characteristics of bread supplemented with extruded corn fiber. The extrusion was conducted as the moisture content of the corn fiber reached 30% and 40% (at $140^{\circ}C$ and 200 rpm). The bread baked with 5% extruded corn fiber at a 40% feed moisture exhibited the highest specific volume. The hardness of the bread supplemented with 10% corn fiber was the highest during storage compared to bread supplemented with extruded corn fiber and the control (100% wheat flour). However, the hardness of bread with corn fiber or extruded corn fiber (5%) was lower than the control. In the sensory evaluation, preferences decreased with the increased addition of untreated and extruded corn fiber. Quality characteristics, such as specific volume and texture, of bread baked with extruded corn fiber were better than bread baked with corn fiber. This improvement in quality is likely due to modification of corn fibers and starch gelatinization from the extrusion process. Supplement of extruded corn fiber had the potential for bread making compared to raw corn fiber.

The quality characteristics of dough and French breads containing dietary fibers, which were resistant starches (RS3 and RS4 types) and commercial non-starch polysaccharides (cellulose, pectin and chitosan), were investigated. The pH of the dough containing all dietary fiber except pectin was greater than that of control and was increased with increasing addition level. There was no correlation between pH and the expansion ratio of dough. As the level of added dietary fibers became high, the bread baking loss decreased, and the order of specific bread volume was 5% cellulose < 5% pectin < control bread, with no significant difference in specific volume. When a high level of dietary fibers was added to wheat flour, a complex phase appeared due to the formation between the network structure of additives and wheat gluten, and starch granules were heavily masted by the increased development of gluten-network matrix after the first fermentation like a wide spread net. Comparing the colorimetric changes of breads with the same added ratio (10%) of dietary fibers, the cellulose and RS4 addition breads had lower levels and the pectin-added bread had the highest value in the redness, while the chitosan-added bread had the highest value in the yellowness. Breads with a high level of dietary fibers showed increased hardness, gumminess, and brittleness and decreased springiness and cohesiveness. By sensory data, breads with 5% NSP and 10% RS addition showed high overall acceptability, with higher sensory RS score, compared to NSP addition. In conclusion, it was suggested that bread with lower than 10% RS or 5% NSP addition based on the amount of wheat flour, was acceptable with no considerable change in preference/overall quality and processing in bread-making.

This study investigates the effects of three branched-chain amino acids (BCAA; valine, leucine, and isoleucine) on the in vitro ruminal fermentation of wheat straw using batch cultures of mixed ruminal microorganisms. BCAA were added to the buffered ruminal fluid at a concentration of 0, 2, 4, 7, or 10 mmol/L. After 72 h of anaerobic incubation, pH, volatile fatty acids (VFA), and ammonia nitrogen ($NH_3$-N) in the ruminal fluid were determined. Dry matter (DM) and neutral detergent fiber (NDF) degradability were calculated after determining the DM and NDF in the original material and in the residue after incubation. The addition of valine, leucine, or isoleucine increased the total VFA yields ($p{\leq}0.001$). However, the total VFA yields did not increase with the increase of BCAA supplement level. Total branched-chain VFA yields linearly increased as the supplemental amount of BCAA increased (p<0.001). The molar proportions of acetate and propionate decreased, whereas that of butyrate increased with the addition of valine and isoleucine (p<0.05). Moreover, the proportions of propionate and butyrate decreased (p<0.01) with the addition of leucine. Meanwhile, the molar proportions of isobutyrate were increased and linearly decreased (p<0.001) by valine and leucine, respectively. The addition of leucine or isoleucine resulted in a linear (p<0.001) increase in the molar proportions of isovalerate. The degradability of NDF achieved the maximum when valine or isoleucine was added at 2 mmol/L. The results suggest that low concentrations of BCAA (2 mmol/L) allow more efficient regulation of ruminal fermentation in vitro, as indicated by higher VFA yield and NDF degradability. Therefore, the optimum initial dose of BCAA for in vitro ruminal fermentation is 2 mmol/L.

Objective: Wheat is an alternative to corn silage for ruminant feeding in northern China. This study examined the effects of harvest time and added molasses on nutritional content, ensiling characteristics and in vitro degradation of whole crop wheat (WCW). Methods: Fresh WCW at the milk-ripe stage was harvested at 0700 h (i.e., in the morning [Mo]) and 1700 h (i.e., in the afternoon [Af]), and then immediately used to prepare silage and make hay. Commercial molasses was added to Af WCW at 0%, 2%, 4%, and 6% (fresh weight) proportions. The WCW treated with molasses was mixed thoroughly prior to ensiling. Results: Dry matter (DM), neutral detergent fiber, water soluble carbohydrate (WSC) content (p<0.01), accumulative gas production in 72 h ($GP_{72h}$, 77.46 mL/g vs 95.15 mL/g) and dry matter disappearance in vitro (69.15% vs 76.77%) were lower (p<0.05), while crude protein (CP) content was higher for WCW silage (WCWS) compared to WCW (p<0.01). The propionic acid and butyric acid concentrations in WCWS from Mo WCW were 1.47% and 0.26%, respectively. However, the propionic and butyric acid concentrations were negligible, while the ammonia nitrogen/total nitrogen ($NH_3-N/TN$, p<0.01) concentration was lower and the rate of gas production at 50% of the maximum (17.05 mL/h vs 13.94 mL/h, p<0.05) was higher for Af WCWS compared to Mo WCWS. The incubation fluid's $NH_3-N$ concentration was lower in WCWS and Af WCW compared to Mo WCW (p<0.05). The CP and WSC content increased with increasing molasses levels (p<0.05). Furthermore, the pH (p<0.01) and time when gas production was 50% of the maximum (2.78 h vs 3.05 h, p<0.05) were lower in silage treated with 4% molasses than silage without molasses. Conclusion: Harvesting wheat crops in the afternoon and adding molasses at 4% level to WCW optimally improved ensiling characteristics, leading to well-preserved silage.

The Waste Rice Straws (W.R.S.) after cultivation with the Pleurotas Ostreatus SACCARDO was substituted for wheat bran in the broiler ration. The results of the experiment 1 and 2 obtained were summerized as follows; 1. The content of C. protein in the W.R.S. showed 1.5% higher value than that in the rice straw. No change was detected in the content of C. fat. However the content of C. fiber and N.F.E in W.R.S. decreased in comparision with those of raw rice straw. 2. The treated groups were inclned to rapid gain of body weight, especially the 4% W.R.S. group had been showed significatly higher value of gain than the control and 6% treated groups (p＜0.05 ). 3. No significant differences were observed in the amount of feet intake among experimental groups, even if the treated groups showed slightly higher intake than control group. 4. The treated groups in W.R.S. were inferior to the control group in feed intake but there were no significant differences. 5. The methionine in W.R.S. was the only amino acid which contained similar quantity of wheat brans. 6. To extend the amount of W.R.S. in broiler ration the 6% of W.R.S. was substituted for wheat bran and methionine mixture was added. No significance differences had been showed in weight gain, feed intake and feed efficiency between control and treated groups. Even though the treated groups showed more feed intake and lower weight gain in comparision with control group. 7. The methionine added group showed adverse effect in economics of production (p＜0.01) because of high cost of the methionine mixture, Therefore less than. 6% of the WRS could be substituted for wheat bran. According to the results of the experiment 1 and 2 it could be concluded that maximum use of the W.R.R. as substitute for wheat bran was less than 4% of the ration.

The study was conducted to investigate the effect of whole-wheat ratio and nutrition information provision on purchasing behavior and consumer intention among individuals in their twenties who lack calcium intake. In the end, this study aims to provide basic data on the development and marketing strategy of customized nutrition-reinforced snacks. Regarding whole wheat ratios, the acceptance of taste of whole wheat flour was highest in ZF but didn't seem significant difference with HF's. The familiarity of taste and flavor (P <0.001), purchase intention (p <0.001) and recommendation intention (p <0.001) were higher in order of ZF, HF and TF. Regarding information provision, familiarity of taste and flavor (P <0.05), purchase intention (p <0.05) and recommendation intention (p <0.05) were higher in order of detailed information group, non - information group and simple information group. Therefore, developing calcium-fortified biscuit, mixing whole wheat flour with normal flour might reduce consumer's resistance, Also, providing detailed information on the degree of fortification of calcium and dietary fiber might cause a synergistic effect on consumption.
