In this study, the approximate compositions, color properties, texture properties, physical characteristics, and sensory evaluation of muffins prepared from legumes (mung bean, cowpea, chickpea, or lentil) and wheat flour blends was evaluated. Pasting viscosity of legume flours was lower than that of wheat flour. The moisture, crude ash, and crude protein content of muffins made with legume-wheat flour blends were higher than those of control muffins made exclusively with wheat flour. The lightness value of muffins was decreased by adding legume flour. The hardness of muffins made from legume-wheat flour blends was higher than that of control, whereas springiness and cohesiveness was lower. The weight of muffins made with legume-wheat flour blends were higher than that of control, whereas the height and volume were lower than those of control. The scores of taste, aroma, and texture of muffins were not significantly changed by adding legume flours. The overall acceptability of muffins that were made with lentil or chickpea flour was similar to that of control muffins.

This study was designed to investigate the effect of Korean whole wheat flour making pan bread. Korean whole wheat flour was mixed with flour at the level of 10% (WHF10), 20% (WHF20), 30% (WHF30), 40% (WHF40) and 50% (WHF50) in order to make bread. According to mixogram, the CON (control), WHF10, WHF20, WHF30, WHF40, except WHF50 were found to be proper between 3 and 5 min. in terms of peak time. CON and WHF10 for peak value were at the level of over 60%. By increasing the ratio of Korean whole wheat flour, the pH, dough fermentation rate, volume, specific volume and moisture content were decreased, and gumminess, cohesiveness and hardness except springiness, were increased for storage days. In the crumbScan analysis, the addition of Korean whole wheat flour decreased the volume and increased the crumb fineness of pan bread. In the sensory evaluation, WHF30 showed good preference in the aspect of flavor, taste and overall acceptance, but was not significant between WHF20. CON scored the highest points in volume, specific volume, moisture content and texture, but was not significant between WHF20.

In this study we aimed to derive the response surface models for Escherichia coli reduction in wheat flour using atmospheric cold plasma (ACP) with three types of gas. The jet-type atmospheric cold plasma wand system was used with a 30 W power supply, and three gases (argon, air, and nitrogen) were applied as the treatment gas. The operating parameters for process optimization considered were wheat flour mass (g), treatment time (min), and gas flow rate (L/min). The wheat flour samples were artificially contaminated with E. coli at a concentration of 9.25 ± 0.74 log CFU/g. ACP treatments with argon, air, and nitrogen resulted in 2.66, 4.21, and 5.55 log CFU/g reduction of E. coli, respectively, in wheat flour under optimized conditions. The optimized conditions to reduce E. coli were 0.5 g of the flour mass, 15 min of treatment time, and 0.20 L/min of nitrogen gas flow rate, and the predicted highest reduction level from modeling was 5.63 log CFU/g.

Cookies, muffins and baguettes were formulated with Korean wheat flour and compared with those made from imported wheat flour in terms of total phenol content, antioxidant activity, and in vitro protein digestibility (IVPD). Chunnyencho and Honghawsi were added to improve quality of the bakery products. Addition of Chunnyencho did not show any significant improvement, whereas Honghawsi increased total phenol content of cookies. Total phenol content in 80% ethanol extract of muffins prepared with Korean wheat flour was 1.5 times higher than those made from imported wheat flour, whereas total phenol content was 1.2 times higher in the 80% methanol extract of baguettes prepared with imported wheat flour compared to those made with Korean wheat flour. Overall, total phenol content of Korean wheat flour was higher than that of imported wheat flour because total phenol content was higher in 80% ethanol extracts than in 80% methanol extracts. Antioxidant activity was not significantly different between ethyl acetate extracts of bakery products from imported wheat and Korean wheat, whereas antioxidant activity of 80% methanol extract of muffins with Korean wheat was 2.4 times higher than that from imported wheat. IVPD was not significantly different in any bakery products made from imported wheat or Korean wheat but was higher in baguettes than cookies or muffins. Conclusively, bakery products made from Korean wheat had higher total phenol content and antioxidant activity than imported wheat.

The purpose of this study is to promote the substitution of rice flour for wheat flour in making bread and thus the consumption of rice by examining the effect of particle size of rice flour on leavening rice bread. For this purpose, several experiments were carried out. With regard to particle size distribution, 59.45% of wheat flour had passed 200 mesh and 3 kinds of rice flour milled to penetrate into 20, 35, and 45 mesh (S1, S2 and S3) had passed 21.88%, 33.1% and 36.38% of those for 200 mesh, respectively. To leaven the rice flour dough to bread, 25% of vital gluten was needed. To determine the optimal water quantity for rice bread dough, the hardness of wheat and rice flour dough was measured by rheometer. The appropriate water quantity for S1, S2 and S3 was set at 285 ml , 295 ml and 335${\sim}$340m1, respectively. The loaf volume index of the wheat flour bread was 6.24, while that of and rice flour bread S1, S2 and S3 was 5.38, 5.50 and 5.75, respectively. These results indicated that the loaf volume index of rice flour bread is lower than that of wheat flour bread, but that the volume of rice flour bread was increased with fuel particle size of rice flour. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), image of the wheat bread tissue at a magnification of 35 times showed long, large, oval-shaped, air cells and thin cell membrane, as well as small air cells, whereas the images of rice flour showed angular, circular, air cells and rough and thick cell membrane. The size and number of air cells in the rice bread were larger in S2 and S3 with fuel particle flours than in S1. In particular, the bread made with S3 contained many air cells that were as large as those in the wheat bread were. In addition, when the inner cell wall was magnified 1500 times, almost no small air cell was observed in C and S3, whereas many fine air cells were observed in the cell wall of S1 and S2.

To investigate the relationship of wheat single kernel characteristics with end-use properties, 183 soft wheat cultivars and lines were evaluated for milling quality characteristics (kernel hardness, kernel and flour protein, flour ash), and end-use properties (i.e., as ingredients in sugar-snap cookies, sponge cake). Significant positive correlations occurred among wheat hardness parameters including near-infrared reflectance (NIR) score and single kernel characterization system (SKCS). The SKCS characteristics were also significantly correlated with conventional wheat quality parameters such as kernel size, wheat protein content, and straight-grade flour yield. The cookie diameter and cake volume were negatively correlated with NIR and SKCS hardness, and there was an inverse relationship between flour protein contents and kernel weights or sizes. Sugar-snap cookie diameter was positively correlated with sponge cake volume.

This study investigated the effect of wheat flour content in the diet on the growth of the snail Semisulcospira gottschei. Six diets were prepared containing wheat flour contents of 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, and 60%. Three replicate groups of snails (average weight 0.61 g) were fed each experimental diet for 8 weeks. The survival was above 85% in all groups, and did not differ significantly among treatments. The weight gain of snails fed the diets containing 35 and 40% wheat flour was significantly higher than that of snails fed the other diets (P<0.05), and the weight gain decreased when the dietary wheat flour content increased beyond 45%. The crude protein and ash contents in snails were significantly affected by the dietary wheat flour content (P<0.05). Therefore, a diet containing 35~40% wheat flour produces the optimal growth of snails. The results of this study will be used to develop cost-effective diets for commercial snail production.

Effects of olive oil on rheological properties of wheat flour dough were investigated through farinograph, amylograph, and extensograph, and by measuring wheat flour dough fermentation volume. Farinogram showed development time, stability, elasticity, and valorimeter value of olive oil-added wheat flour decreased, whereas water absorption and stability were similar to control (shortening 4%). Gelatinization temperature and maximum viscosity of wheat flour dough with olive oil decreased more than those of control as revealed by amylogram. Extensogram showed wheat flour area increased, whereas dough volume decreased in olive oil-added wheat flour dough.

Rheolegical and baking properties of blends containing 10, 20 and 30 % of rice flours (Milyang 23, non-waxy and Tongil waxy) with wheat flour were investigated. Milyang-wheat blends showed higher amylograph paste viscosities at all reference points than waxy-wheat blends. Rice-wheat four blends had shorter farinograph stability than f·heat flour; however, the dough development time was similar between two blends. Breads produced from either Milyang-wheat or waxy-wheat flour blends at 10% rice level were acceptable compared with breads produced from wheat flour.

This study evaluated the quality characteristics of dried noodles made of wheat flour with different concentrations of Dioscorea japonica flour. Cooking quality, mechanical texture properties and viscosity were measured, and sensory evaluation was performed with the prepared noodles. Water binding capacity, solubility and swelling power of the composite Dioscorea japonica flour-wheat flours were higher than those of pure wheat flour. Gelatinization points of the composite Dioscorea japonica flour-wheat flours were increased and initial viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$, viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$ after 15 minutes and maximum viscosity of these composites were decreased, with increasing Dioscorea japonica flour content, as measured by amylograph. With increasing Dioscorea japonica flour content, L and b values were decreased, but a value was increased, for the color values, while weight and volume of the cooked noodles and turbidity of the soup were increased. For the textural characteristics, the addition of Dioscorea japonica flour increased the hardness and decreased the adhesiveness, cohesiveness and springiness. Overall, the noodles made with 10% Dioscorea japonica flour were preferred more than the other noodles, as tested by sensory evaluation.
