A curd yogurt was prepared from egg white powder (EWP) and casein added with sugars (glucose, fructose, lactose). The effects of sugar addition on acid production and growth of Lactobacillus were studied. The effects of sugar addition on sensory property and volatile aroma compounds were also studied. Acid production by L. acidophilus in EWP 2％ (W/V), casein 3％ (w/v) and sugar 0.5,1 or 2％ W/V) was lower than that of L. acidophilus in milk (control). Acid production in sample added with glucose or fructose of 1％ or 2% (W/V) was higher than that of 0.5% (W/V), while acid production in lactose added sample was not affected with the concentration of lactose. Number of viable cells of L. acidophilus at 24 hr in milk, glucose added sample, fructose added sample and lactose added sample was 3.6${\times}$10/Sup 9/, 5.6${\times}$10$\^$8/, 6.0${\times}$10$\^$8/,and 3.2${\times}$10$\^$7/, respectively. Through 30hr fermentation, acid production and number of viable cells of L. acidophilus in milk were higher than those of sugar added samples. Sensory property of fructose added sample was slightly better than that of milk yogurt (reference), while that of lactose added sample was significantly inferior. Though the composition of volatile aroma compounds was slightly different according to sample, gas chromatographic analysis detected acetone, ethanol, diacetyl and acetoin in samples fermented by L. acidophilus.

Effects of various jelly prepared with different concentrations of agar and sugars on overall acceptability of the peach jelly were investigated. The preparations of peach for experimental jelly were carried by the mixture of peach pulp and juice(MPJ), and the extract form peach(EP). The results were summarized as follows ; 1. The pH for MPJ and EP were 3.95 to 4/31, respectively, and the brix degree were 13.0% and 11.5%, respectively. 2. The jelly prepared with MPJ added 3% agar and 30% sugar were most effective in appearance, hardness, springiness and overall acceptability. The relation of samples(P<0.001) was found to be significant. On the other hand, the jelly prepared with EP was higher scored than that with MPJ in overall acceptability, but there was no significant differences between samples. 3. The Hunter values of L*, a* and b* were the highest in both the jelly prepared with MPJ and that with EP, added 2% agar and 10% sugar. However, the L*, a* and b* values of the jelly added MPJ were higher than those of the sample added EP. 4. Texture and color scores of both the jelly added EP became higher as the concentrations of agar and sugars increased and there was significant differences between samples. 5. The relation between springiness and overall acceptability, and L* value of the jelly added MPJ showed negative at P<0.05 and that between springiness and overall acceptability of the jelly added EP also showed negative.

To increase the utilization of citron(Citrus junos), manufacturing conditions of citron jelly were studied. Citron extract was diluted 7 fold for jelly processing and it's pH was 2.64. Due to the low pH of citron extract, 2.5∼3.0% of pectin was added which was slightly higher than the amount for ordinary jelly process. To reduce the loss of citron flavor and vitamin C, it was heated for 10 min. and found to be enough for proper hardness of jelly. Agar and gelatin was used as jellying agents to improve the physical properties of pectin jelly. From the result of compression curve analysis, addition of 5% and 7% of gelatin were more effective in jelly texture than agar in 1.5% and 2.5% pectin jelly, respectively. Sucrose was replaced by glucose and oligosaccharide; galactooligosaccharide, fructooligosaccharide and isomaltooligosaccharide. From the sensory evaluation analysis, 30% of sucrose and 30% of isomaltooligosaccharide in jelly was evaluated as superior to other sugars.

Separation of fructose from glucose-fructose mixture was studied by utilizing the solubility differences of both sugars in the mixed solvents of water and alcohols with or without the presence of NaCl and $CaCl_2$. Better separation of fructose was obtained in ethanol-water solvent than other solvent-water systems. The addition of NaCl to the ethanol-water solvent system improved the separation factor based on the relative composition of two sugars in the supernatant by twice. The change in feed composition from 50-50 mixture of glucose and fructose resulted in a worse separation factor. It was found in the present studies that the best separation of fructose (fructose 75%, glucose 25%) was achieved when NaCl and ethanol was slowly added to the solution containing 20% water, 40% fructose and 40% glucose to make up the final solution with the parts of ethanol 36 ml, water 4 ml, glucose 8 gm, fructose 8 gm and NaCl 0.25gm.

The effects of various nutrients added to soy milk on the growth of Lactobacillus acidophilus were investigated. Soy milk was prepared from defatted soy flour and various nutrients such as sugars, growth stimulating agents, amino acid and milk by-products. The growth curve obtained from the experiment suggested that the log phase ended after 12hr. Glucose and fructose greatly enhanced the acid production by L. acidophilus. The optimum concentration of these two sugars in the media was approximately 3% each. Among the tested growth stimulating agents, yeast extract stimulated the acid production by L. acidophilus, and the optimum concentration of this additive was approximately 0.5%. L-methionine reduced the acid production by L. acidophilus. Whey powder and skim mills powder did not significantly stimulated the growth and acid production by L. acidophilus. Concentration of protein in soy milk did not affect the growth and acid production by L. acidophilus.

The effects of two different sugars (glucose and xylose) on the expression levels and patterns of the xylose reductase (xyl1), xylitol dehydrogenase (xyl2), and xylulokinase (xyl3) genes were analyzed using Pichia stipitis. A significant increase in mRNA levels of xyl1 was observed after 6 h growth in culture conditions using xylose as a sole carbon source, but expressions of the three genes were not influenced by normal culture media with glucose. In addition, expressions of xyl2 and xyl3 were not observed during the entire culture period during which xylose was added. It also was found that the expression level of xyl1 increased as a function of the xylose concentration (40, 60, and 80 g/l) used in this study, indicating that xyl1 expression sensitively responded to xylose in the culture media. Although the induced level of xyl2 increased slightly after 48 h in the xylose-supplemented culture conditions, the expression of xyl2 was not observed in the xylitol-supplemented culture conditions. Finally, considering the expression of each gene in response to glucose or xylose, the absolute expression levels of the three genes indicate that xyl1 is induced primarily by exposure to xylose.

This study was conducted to investigate the properties of wet noodle when different concentrations of Prunus mume juice were added to the wheat flour. The characteristics of wet noodle including cooking properties, color, mechanical texture properties, and sensory quality were determined. The compositions of Prunus mume were 88.19% moisture, 0.45% crude ash, 4.04% citric acid and 0.41% total sugars. The pH of Prunus mume was 2.76. The moisture absorption rate, weight, volume and turbidity of cooked noodles added with Prunus mume juice were lower than reference sample. When the amount of Prunus mume juice increased, the Hunter L(brightness) value, a(redness) value of cooked noodles decreased but b(yellowness) value increased. Instrumental rheological characteristics of wet noodle containing Prunus mume juice were measured with a texture analyzer. The hardness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, springiness and gumminess of wet noodle with 20% Prunus mume juice were higher than others. However, the hardness of cooked noodle decreased with the increase in the amount of Prunus mume juice into noodle. The adhesiveness, cohesiveness, springiness and gumminess of cooked noodles added with Prunus mume juice were higher than reference sample. The results of sensory evaluation of cooked noodles containing Prunus mume juice indicated that the appearance, color, taste and chewiness of the cooked noodle with 10% Prunus mume juice showed the higher preference than others. Based on cooking properties, rheological and sensory evaluation, addition of 10% Prunus mume juice suggested to be acceptable for processing wet noodle.

Aronia makgeolli was manufactured using Asp. kawachi (AK) and Asp. awamori (AA) with tannase activity, and physicochemical properties were examined during the fermentation period. The pH was decreased during the fermentation period after the first day, while the acidity increased. Reducing sugars increased highly on the first day of fermentation, and then they gradually decreased as the fermentation period elapsed. On the 7th day of fermentation, it was in the range of 0.38~0.61%. The alcohol content gradually increased during the fermentation period and it ranged from 13.4~14.2 v/v% by the 7th day of fermentation, and the alcohol content of makgeolli added with Aronia was somewhat lower than that of makgeolli prepared without aronia. The L value increased as the fermentation period elapsed, and the L value of makgeolli added with aronia increased rapidly. The a value gradually decreased, while the b value gradually increased as the fermentation period elapsed. The content of total polyphenols increased during the fermentation period of AK makgeolli. However, the AA makgeolli was not significantly increased, as compared to the initial stage of fermentation, and it was lower than that of the AK makgeolli. The radical scavenging activity of the DPPH was higher in the makgeolli added with aronia, and the antioxidant activity of AA makgeolli was higher than that of AK makgeolli. In the sensory evaluation, in the AK makgeolli, the palatability deteriorated due to the bitter taste and the astringent taste derived from the aronia. However, in the AA makgeolli, astringent taste was very weak and the sensory quality was good.
