This study investigated the quality characteristics of sulgidduck prepared by the addition of astringent persimmon powder. For Sulg : dduck, the amounts of added astringent persimmon powder were 0, 5, 10, 15, 20%. With the addition of astringent persimmon powder content the moisture content of persimmon sulgidduck (sulgidduck prepared by adding astringent persimmon powder) decreased. With increasing addition of those, Reducing sugar, free sugar and mineral (Ca, K and Mg) of persimmon sulgidduck were increased significantly. L-value in color decreased whereas a- and b-values were increased. Adhesiveness, cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness in textural profile analysis were decreased. However, there is no respective comparison hole. These result suggest that persimmon sulgidduck can be used as rice cakes commercially desired.

In this study, manufactured a cream soup by varying addition of Hericium erinaceus and decided its recipe, and conducted particle size analysis, calorimetry, sensory test for investigating physicochemical characteristics and quality characteristics (salinity, sugar content, color value, pH, viscosity), antioxidant activities of soup, and mechanical sensory test for objectivity. This study found that moisture content in Hericium erinaceus powder was 6.16%, crude protein 26.87%, crude fat 4.62% and crude ash was 10.75% respectively. No significant differences were found in salinity, sugar content, pH according to addition of Hericium erinaceus. As for color value of cream soup manufactured by adding Hericium erinaceus, L value decreased with increase in addition of Hericium erinaceus, whereas a value and b value increased. The more the addition of Hericium erinaceus, the higher the viscosity, which increases concentration of soup. As result of analysis on antioxidant activities of Hericium erinaceus cream soup, antioxidant activities increased with increase in addition of Hericium erinaceus. Particle size analysis showed results similar to that of viscometry, which means that the smaller the particle size, the higher the viscosity, whereas viscosity lowered vice versa. Calorie of cream soup showed no significant difference notwithstanding the amount of addition. As a result of sensory test, S5 with 5% of Hericium erinaceus powder was highest rated in color, flavor, taste, umami taste and overall preference. As a result of mechanical sensory test, umami taste increased with increase in addition of Hericium erinaceus powder, whereas bitterness taste lowered significantly (p<0.05) with addition of Hericium erinaceus. As for salty taste, both control group and experimental group that added Hericium erinaceus powder showed no significant difference. Accordingly, experimental group with 5% of Hericium erinaceus powder was proved to be the most desirable.

The effect on quality improvement of Chokochujang by the addition of green tea extract (GT) was evaluated on the basis of total cell numbers, pH, acidity, sugar content and sensory evaluation during its storage at $25^{\circ}C$ and $37^{\circ}C$ for 3 weeks. A dorminant strain was isolated from the Chokochujang and identified as Bacillus amyloliquefaciens ER282 based on the 16S rDNA sequence. The ethanol extract from GT was investigated for its antibacterial activity aid showed good activities enough to use for Chokochujang as a natural preservative. Growth of microorganisms was significantly inhibited by adding GT extract to Chokochujang but pH, acidity, sugar content and color was not much changed. Sensory evaluation and overall preference, however, was continuously declined as storage period increased, whereas the addtion of 3% GT extract could delay the quality loss of Chokochujang during storage at $25^{\circ}C$ and $37^{\circ}C$ for 3 weeks.

With a view to increase utility of ethanol fractioned fish skin gelatin as a food source, efforts of additives on physical properties of the gelatin were investigated. The physical properties such as gel strength, melting Point, gelling point and viscosity of both ethanol-treated and untreated gelatins were improved by adding ferric ion, sugar and ethanol to the gelatin sol, but were deteriorated by the added sodium chloride and acids. Insignificant difference in effect of physical properties on additives such as sodium chloride, sugar and ethanol between ethanol-treated and untreated gelatins were not observed. However, the effect of ferric ion and acids on the physical properties of ethanol-treated gelatin has a greater than that of untreated gelatin.

Fermentation characteristics of kwahaju (a typical Korean traditional alcoholic beverage) base were investigated during fermentation with different contents of nuruk (Korean-style bran koji) extract. The nuruk extract which was prepared by incubating the mixture of nuruk powder and water at $25^{\circ}C$ overnight and by filtering it was used to be 0.6%, 2.7%, 5% and 10% (v/v). Total and reducing sugar contents as well as acidity of the kwahaju base with 0.6% nuruk extract were higher than those with 2.7%, 5% and 10% at the fermentation end. Final pH values of all the base samples were ranged from 3.3 to 4.1. Alcohol concentrations of the base samples with 2.7%, 5% and 10% nuruk extract were higher than those with 0.6%. Microbial growth rate was great and inner temperature was high in the sample with high content of nuruk extract, but fermentation period was short. Total sugar consumption and alcohol production increased as the content of nuruk extract increased, but total acid production decreased. The base sample with 10% nuruk extract showed the most excellent fermentation efficiency. Fusel oil content of the base sample with 2.7% nuruk extract was the highest (457.3 ppm), and those wity 5% and 10% nuruk extract were 438.9 ppm and 442.6 ppm, respectively. The sample with 0.6% nuruk extract had the lowest content (409.5 ppm). Sensory evaluation of both the kwahaju base and kwahaju mix with 25% and 40% alcohol by adding soju (Korean distilled liquor) showed that the base with 2.7% nuruk extract had the highest score, and that the kwahaju mix with 25% alcohol had higher score than that with 40%. The sensory results on overall desirability were consistent to those on color and alcohol concentration, and it turned out that the two factors were important to make kwahaju.

This study was conducted to investigate the changes in chemical, microbial and sensory characteristics, and antimutagenicity of buchu(leek, Allium odorum) kimchi during fermentation at 15$^{\circ}C$. Reducing sugar contents and pH of buchu kimchi were decreased during the fermentation. The reduction rate of reducing sugar of glutinous rice paste and shrimp added buvhu kimchi(GSBK) was faster than those of control buchu kimchi(CBK) and glutious rice paste added bucku kimchi(GBK). Acidity increased rapidly until 4 days,a nd optimum acidity (0.6%) of bucku kimchi was reached within 2 day. Also total bacterial and lactic acid bacterial counts greatly increased after 4 days of the fermentation. The numbers of lactic acid bacteria after 8 day- fermentation in CBK and GSBK, and 10 day-fermentation in GBK were the highest values, 4.5$\times${TEX}$10^{8}${/TEX} CFU/ml, 4.8$\times${TEX}$10^{8}${/TEX} CFU/ml and 6.1$\times${TEX}$10^{8}${/TEX} CFU/ml, respectively. In the sensory evaluation, appearance of sample was good at 0 day, taste from overall quality of buchu kimchi were asquired the highest values at 6th day. The methanol extracts from buchu kimchi(GBK) showed antimutagenicity against aflatoxin {TEX}$B_{1}${/TEX}({TEX}$AFB_{1}${/TEX})in Salmonella typhimurium TA100. The inhibition ration were 58~69% with treatment of the 5% methanol extracts, and when the adding concentration increased the effect increased.

This study attempts to find optimum mixing proportion of rice dasik with yam powder by adding rice powder in different quantity and using honey and oligosaccharide as a sweetener. The results of the mechanical test and the sensory test on rice dasik are as follows. Moisture content of honey added one had less moisture than oligosaccharide added one did while having more sugar content than that. In color, honey added one showed the higher L-value and a-value than those of oligosaccharide added one, but it had the lower b-value. In hardness, chewiness, gumminess, and cohesiveness, oligosaccharide added one was higher. As a result of the preference test, the group which was added with 20% of yam powder was the highest. Based on the results above, adding yam powder makes the preference of rice dasik high, and the one added with 20% of yam powder is the best for rice dasik when using honey and oligosaccharide. This study used honey and oligosaccharide as a sweetening ingredient to make rice dasik, but it is necessary to research dasik with various sweetners and their different ratios.

This study was performed to investigate the effects of adding a dual starter on the chemical and sensory characteristics of red wine made of Campbell Early grape. The yeast starter, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and lactic acid bacteria (LAB) starter, Oenococcus oeni, were used for inoculation in the winemaking process for alcoholic fermentation and malolactic fermentation (MLF), respectively. After 200 days of incubation, the chemical compositions of yeast/LAB-added wine (YL-wine) were compared with those of no-starter-added wine (control) and yeast-added wine (Y-wine). The results show that no significant differences were observed in pH, total sugar, and alcohol content among the wine samples, but the malic acid content in YL-wine was significantly reduced, and various esters and higher alcohols were synthesized. The sensory test revealed that the addition of dual starters resulted in improved overall acceptability in wine. This study emphasizes the importance of O. oeni in addition to yeast in making Campbell Early wine.

New in vitro anti-diabetes makgeolli was produced from rice by adding various quantities of Laminaria japonica, and the fermentation characteristics of the L. japonica makgeolli during the fermentation process were investigated. The contents of alcohol and reducing sugar, and viable count of yeast, of L. japonica makgeolli were not significantly changed when the proportion of L. japonica was increased. The total acid content decreased with an increase in L. japonica concentration; the pH and total bacterial cell count increased in proportion with the increase in L. japonica concentration. The L. japonica makgeolli contents of free sugars, such as fructose, glucose, and sucrose, and of organic acids, such as acetic acid, citric acid, succinic acid, and lactic acid, were altered during fermentation and showed various patterns. The effects of the quantity of L. japonica added on the acceptability and anti-diabetes activities of L. japonica makgeolli were also investigated. In a sensory evaluation, L. japonica makgeolli brewed by adding 2.5 or 5% L. japonica to the mash showed the best overall acceptability; the 12.5% L. japonica sample was least favored due to its seaweed flavor. L. japonica addition did not increase the peroxynitrite-scavenging activity of makgeolli. L. japonica makgeolli showed potent anti-diabetes activity, particularly that containing >7.5% L. japonica. Therefore, L. japonica makgeolli may represent a new functional makgeolli with anti-diabetes properties.
