The objective of this study was to evaluate quality properties, including amylose, alkali digestion value (ADV), and amylogram, of brown rice and germinated brown rice of some cultivars in Korea for rice processing products. The protein content of brown rice was significantly higher than those of germinated brown rice. The amylose content of the samples ranged from 17.09 to 18.85%. Alkali digestion value (ADV) of brown rice and germinated brown rice were described as a grade of 2-5 and 4-7, respectively. In a rapid visco analyzer (RVA) examination, pasting temperature of brown rice and germinated brown rice was $67.93-68.05^{\circ}C$. In addition, the pasting characteristics of brown rice were significantly higher than those of germinated brown rice. A texture analysis test showed that germinated brown rice Haiami had the lowest hardness and germinated brown rice Samkwang had the highest adhesiveness.

This study was carried out to investigate the possibilities of adopting xanthangum, guargum and ${\kappa}-carrageenan$ as cryprotectant by examining the rheological and structural properties of dough. Results of farinography showed that water absorption, development time and mechanical tolerance index in dough with the gums increased more than those of the control. It was also found that resistance in dough with the gums increased greatly, but extensibilities were similar to that of the control, resulting in increasing R/E values in the dough with the gums through extensograph. According to amylogram, gelatinization temperature of dough was $59.5^{circ}C$ and those of the dough with the gums were $58^{circ}C$. Even though maximum viscosity of the dough was 550 B.U in the control, those were 690 B.U, 780 B.U and 760 B.U in the dough with xanthangum, guargum, and ${\kappa}-carrageenan$, respectively. The control deeply increased the pH during frozen storage but the addition of ${\kappa}-carrageenan$ and xanthangum increased the pH slightly. The dough with the gums had more stable spaces than control in the microstructure through SEM.

Properties of noodle prepared with FPC and wheat flour were investigated, and the results were summarized as follows: 1. Farinogram showed that the water absorption ratio and dough development time increased as the mixing level of FPC to wheat flour increased. 2. Amylogram showed that the maximum viscosity of the composite flour decreased as the content of FPC increased. 3. In the textural parameters, such as hardness, cohesiveness and gumminess of noodles, there were no marked differences between wheat flour and cooked noodles from the composite flour of 3% or 5% FPC-97% or 95% wheat flour. 4. Regarding weight and volume of the cooked noodles, those of cooked noodles from the composite flour of 3% or 5% FPC-97% or 95% wheat flour were similar to wheat flour alone. As the content of FPC in noodle increased, however, those of cooked noodles slightly decreased, and soup turbidity increased. 5. Results of sensory evaluations showed that the noodle from the composite flour of 3% FPC-97 wheat flour appeared to be the most acceptable, and the noodles from the composite flour of 5% or 7% FPC-95% or 93% wheat flour were judged as acceptable as the wheat flour alone.

Retarding retrogradation of a Korean rice cake (Karedduk) added with carbohydrate materials after $0{\sim}30hrs$ of storage at $5^{\circ}C$ were investigated by Avrami equation using textural characteristics. Carbohydrate materials such as powdered sugar, trehalose, fructooligosaccharide (95%), isomalto, healtholigo, and galactooligo-saccharide (50%) were added in 0, 1, 5 or 10% levels on dry rice flour. In the amylogram, the breakdown (P-H) and consistency (C-H) for Karedduk added with carbohydrate materials were lower than those of the control. Decrease in the Avrami exponent (n) and increase in the time constant (1/k) of Karedduuk added with carbohydrate materials during storage determined by Avrami equation were important comparison factors to the control in terms of retrogradation rate analysis. The Aurami exponent (n) for control, fructooligosaccharide (95%) 10% and healtholigo 1% addition were 2.415, 1.977 and 3.297, respectively. The time constant (1/k) for fructooligosaccharide (95%) 5% and healtholigo 1% addition were lower than thecontrol. Lastly, Karedduk added with carbohydrate materials, except for fructooligosaccharide (95%) 5% and healtholigo 1% addition, was effective in retarding retrogradation.

The retrogradation properties of a Korean rice cake ($Karedduk$) added with oligosaccharides after 0~30 hr of storage at $5^{\circ}C$ were examined by texture profile analysis and the Avrami equation using textural characteristics. Oligosaccharides, such as galactooligosaccharide (50%) and maltooligosaccharide, were added to dry rice flour at levels of 10%. In the amylogram, the breakdown (P-H) and consistency (C-H) of the Korean rice cake (Karedduk) added with oligosaccharides were lower than those of the control. Texture profile analysis using a Texture Analyzer revealed that the hardness of the Korean rice cake ($Karedduk$) added with oligosaccharides was lower than the control. The Avrami exponent ($n$) for the control, galactooligosaccharide (50%) 10% and maltooligosaccharide 10% addition was 2.415, 2.771 and 2.683, respectively. The time constant (1/$k$) for galactooligosaccharide (50%) 10% or maltooligosaccharide 10% addition was higher than the control. Overall, adding galactooligosaccharide (50%) 10% or maltooligosaccharide 10% to a Korean rice cake ($Karedduk$) is effective in retarding retrogradation.

Physicochemical properties and gelatinization patterns of defatted and lipid-reintroduced moist (Hwangmi) and dry (Suwon 147) type sweet potato starches were investigated. Starch granules of sweet potato were polygonal and round, and the sizes of starch granules ranged $5{\sim}13\;{\mu}m$. All starches showed Ca type in X-ray diffraction but relative crystallinity was decreased by defatting and reintroduction. The amylose content of defatted starches increased, but that of lipid-reintroduced starches decreased. The swelling power and solubility at each temperature increased by defatting, but decreased by reintroduction. Transmittance of Hwangmi and Suwon 147 showed a rapid increase at $60,\;65^{\circ}C$, respectively. The initial pasting temperature by amylograph of Hwangmi and Suwon 147 were $67.5^{\circ}C\;and\;72.7^{\circ}C$, respectively. The peak viscosity and the height at $50^{\circ}C$ on amylogram of Hwangmi were lower than those of Suwon 147. Hot paste viscosity and setback decreased by defatting but setbak and consistency drastically increased by reintroduction. The peak temperature for gelatinization by the DSC was $65.7^{\circ}C$ for Hwangmi and $68.5^{\circ}C$ for Suwon 147. The gelatinization temperature and enthalpy of the DSC decreased and amylose-lipid melting peak was lost by defatting. The gelatinization temperature and enthalpy decreased by reintroduction.

The influence of cool temperature occurred during the booting stage in 1993 on quality of rice grain was compared with that in favorable weather of 1994. The mean and minimum air temperatures during the reproductive growth stage at the paddy field of Jinbu Substation, National Crop Experiment Station were 2.2~7.4$^{\circ}C$ and 2.0~8.9$^{\circ}C$ lower respectively in 1993 compared to those of 1994. Grain fertility and brown rice yield were 11.8％ and 0.4t /ha, and 84.3％ and 5.5t /ha in 1993 and 1994, respectively. There was no difference in amylose content between two years. However, protein content of brown rice in 1994 were 1.6％ lower than that of 1993. There was no difference in alkali digestion value of milled rice between two years. Gel consistency of rice flour was 45mm in 1993 and 59mm in 1994. Amylogram characteristics of rice flour produced in 1993 showed lower peak hot, cool, and breakdown viscosities, and higher consistency and setback viscosities. The palatability of cooked rice by sensory panel test was considerably better in 1994 rice than in the rice of cool year.

The endeavors enhancing the grain quality of high-yielding japonica rice were steadily continued during 1980s∼1990s along with the self-sufficiency of rice production and the increasing demands of high-quality rices. During this time, considerably great, progress and success was obtained in development of high-quality japonica cultivars and qualify evaluation techniques including the elucidation of interrelationship between the physicochemical properties of rice grain and the physical or palatability components of cooked rice. In 1990s, some high-quality japonica rice caltivars and special rices adaptable for food processing such as large kernel, chalky endosperm aromatic and colored rices were developed and its objective preference and utility was also examined by a palatability meter, rapid-visco analyzer and texture analyzer. The water uptake rate and the maximum water absorption ratio showed significantly negative correlations with the K/Mg ratio and alkali digestion value(ADV) of milled rice. The rice materials showing the higher amount of hot water absorption exhibited the larger volume expansion of cooked rice. The harder rices with lower moisture content revealed the higher rate of water uptake at twenty minutes after soaking and the higher ratio of maximum water uptake under the room temperature condition. These water uptake characteristics were not associated with the protein and amylose contents of milled rice and the palatability of cooked rice. The water/rice ratio (in w/w basis) for optimum cooking was averaged to 1.52 in dry milled rices (12% wet basis) with varietal range from 1.45 to 1.61 and the expansion ratio of milled rice after proper boiling was average to 2.63(in v/v basis). The major physicochemical components of rice grain associated with the palatability of cooked rice were examined using japonica rice materials showing narrow varietal variation in grain size and shape, alkali digestibility, gel consistency, amylose and protein contents, but considerable difference in appearance and torture of cooked rice. The glossiness or gross palatability score of cooked rice were closely associated with the peak. hot paste and consistency viscosities of viscogram with year difference. The high-quality rice variety “Ilpumbyeo” showed less portion of amylose on the outer layer of milled rice grain and less and slower change in iodine blue value of extracted paste during twenty minutes of boiling. This highly palatable rice also exhibited very fine net structure in outer layer and fine-spongy and well-swollen shape of gelatinized starch granules in inner layer and core of cooked rice kernel compared with the poor palatable rice through image of scanning electronic mcroscope. Gross sensory score of cooked rice could be estimated by multiple linear regression formula, deduced from relationship between rice quality components mentioned above and eating quality of cooked rice, with high Probability of determination. The ${\alpha}$ -amylose-iodine method was adopted for checking the varietal difference in retrogradation of cooked rice. The rice cultivars revealing the relatively slow retrogradation in aged cooked rice were Ilpumbyeo, Chucheongbyeo, Sasanishiki, Jinbubyeo and Koshihikari. A Tongil-type rice, Taebaegbyeo, and a japonica cultivar, Seomjinbyeo, shelved the relatively fast deterioration of cooked rice. Generally, the better rice cultivars in eating quality of cooked rice showed less retrogiadation and much sponginess in cooled cooked rice. Also, the rice varieties exhibiting less retrogradation in cooled cooked rice revealed higher hot viscosity and lower cool viscosity of rice flour in amylogram. The sponginess of cooled cooked rice was closely associated with magnesium content and volume expansion of cooked rice. The hardness-changed ratio of cooked rice by cooling was negatively correlated with solids amount extracted during boiling and volume expansion of cooked rice. The major physicochemical properties of rice grain closely related to the palatability of cooked rice may be directly or indirectly associated with the retrogradation characteristics of cooked rice. The softer gel consistency and lower amylose content in milled rice revealed the higher ratio of popped rice and larger bulk density of popping. The stronger hardness of rice grain showed relatively higher ratio of popping and the more chalky or less translucent rice exhibited the lower ratio of intact popped brown rice. The potassium and magnesium contents of milled rice were negatively associated with gross score of noodle making mixed with wheat flour in half and the better rice for noodle making revealed relatively less amount of solid extraction during boiling. The more volume expansion of batters for making brown rice bread resulted the better loaf formation and more springiness in rice bread. The higher protein rices produced relatively the more moist white rice bread. The springiness of rice bread was also significantly correlated with high amylose content and hard gel consistency. The completely chalky and large gram rices showed better suitability for fermentation and brewing. Our breeding efforts on rice quality improvement for the future should focus on enhancement of palatability of cooked rice and marketing qualify as well as the diversification in morphological and physicochemical characteristics of rice grain for various value-added rice food processings.

Six commerical rice varieties were cultivated and harvested at different locations in 1987 and 1988 to clarify the degree of locational variations. of several characteristics related to rice grain quality using the rice samples harvested from 8 to 20 locations for a variety each year. Locational variations of percent brown rice, percent milled rice, 1000-grain weight and amylose content were small, but whole grain rate, alkali digestibility, gel consistency, percent white-center and white-belly grain, degree of chalkiness and degree of translucency showed larger variations between locations. The degree of locational variation of sensory evaluation score for eating quality of cooked rice were varied from small to large along with rice variety used and year cultivated. Texture palatability index and stickiness of cooked rice among rheogram characteristics showed larger locational variations, but cohesiveness and springiness showed smaller variations between locations. Set back, break down and maximum viscosity showed larger locational variations among amylogram characteristics of rice flour. Special attention was given to a cultivated location, Anseong, because rice samples harvested at Anseong showed lower percent white-center and white-belly grain, and low set back and high break down in Chucheongbyeo, lower percent white-center and white-belly grain, higher texture palatability index and viscousness/hardness ratio, and low set back and high break down in Dongjinbyeo, higher texture palatability index, and low set back and high break down in Yongmunbyeo, lower percent white-center and white-belly grain in Sangpungbyeo, and low set back and high break down in Samkangbyeo. No other locations in this study produced rice samples showing wide acceptable quality-related characteristics except Anseong.

This study investigated the effect of protease on quality characteristics of sponge cake. Protease was used at levels of 0.0005 U (PC-1), 0.0010 U (PC-2), 0.0015 U (PC-3), and 0.0020 U (PC-4) for sponge cake preparation. Amylogram showed the setback was significantly decreased in comparison with the control (P<0.05). Height and baking loss rate of control sponge cake were $4.24{\pm}0.18cm$ and $12.01{\pm}0.29%$, respectively. PC-3 and PC-4 showed increased heights of $5.22{\pm}0.16$ and $5.24{\pm}0.11cm$ as well as slightly increased baking loss rates of $12.71{\pm}0.31%$ and $12.89{\pm}0.61%$, respectively. Specific volume and color difference measurements of control showed a specific volume of $3.53{\pm}0.06mL/g$, crust color difference of $53.05{\pm}0.28$, and crumb color difference of $29.84{\pm}0.52$. Measurements of specific volume, crust color, and crumb color of PC-3 and PC-4 were $4.18{\pm}0.02mL/g$, $56.19{\pm}0.84$, $29.05{\pm}0.43$, $4.21{\pm}0.02mL/g$, $56.85{\pm}0.43$, and $29.45{\pm}0.47$, respectively. Firmness measurements showed that the control had the highest firmness. PC-3 and PC-4 were effective at improving the shelf-life of sponge cake as indicated by reduced firmness. Sensory evaluation results demonstrated that all samples scored higher than the control. Throughout the results, the addition of protease increased volume and improved quality characteristics of sponge cake.
