The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of oriental medicinal plant extracts added to chocolates on the moisture content, color, radical scavenging activity and sensory characteristics. The oriental medicinal plant extracts were added at a weight percentage of 0, 4 and 8%. As the ratio of the extracts in the chocolates increased, the moisture content, color, and radical scavenging activity increased. In sensory evaluation, significant differences (p<0.05) were shown in taste, bitterness, and overall acceptability depending on the addition of oriental medicinal plant extracts but there were no significant differences in chocolate aroma and texture.

This study was carried out for the purpose of improving the persimmon vinegar. The acetic acid bacteria strain JST-3, using acetic acid fermentation was isolated from the traditional persimmon vinegar. The optimum conditions for high yield of acetic acid were studied in the shaking bath. Acetic acid bacteria was cultured at 3$0^{\circ}C$ for 4 days and transferred to persimmon alcoholic juice for acetic acid fermentation. The optimum initial acidity for acetic acrid fermentation was 1%(w/v) and the addition of glucose or yeast extract was observed to produce relatively low yield of acetic acid. Succinic and acetic acid were major organic acid in the persimmon vinegar, The contents of lactic acid which was known to increase off-flavor were very low. Sensory evaluation revealed that the persimmon vinegar prepared in this study was superior to two commercial ones in the aroma and taste.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of tobacco curing on far infrared light on the quality of flue-cured tobacco leaves. Physicochemical characteristics such as alkaloid, total sugar, total nitrogen, starch, total phenolic compounds, browning degrees, and color differences, in cured tobacco leaves were compared between hot air and far infrared curing methods. There was no significant difference in sugar/nicotine ratio and nitrogen number between the curing methods, while the contents of ether extract and filling capacity were increase by far infrared curing. Therefore, it was expected that far infrared curing might be effective for high aroma and physical properties of the cured tobacco leaves.

We inoculated hypal suspension of Tricholoma matsutake and T. magnivelare were examined on Pinus densiflora seedlings grown in a granite soil substrate with 1/2 PDMP (12 g/l potato dextrose broth, 1.5 g/l malt extract, and 0.5 g/l peptone) medium. Four months after inoculation, the pine seedlings were examined for infection rate, matsutake aroma, and Hartig-net formation. The roots of pine seedling formed ectomycorrhizal roots in the 9 isolates from 12 isolates of T. matsutake and T. magnivelare. However, the seedlings showed different ectomycorrhizae forming rates among the 9 isolates. While matsutake aroma was confirmed from the ectomycorrhizal seedlings, the pine seedling contaminated by bacteria or fungi did not form matsutake ectomycorrhizae with sickening smell. Thus, the aroma was chosen as a good way for the verification of mycorrhizal infection. At the early stage, the mycorrhizal roots showed unramified and branched types without root hair. They also showed thin mantle layers, Hartig-nets, and turned into black color at later stage. Among the examined strains, that of Yecheon isolated in 1995 showed the best infection rate, which indicated that we need to pay attention to the selection of isolates for better result.

Previous studies have been conducted on domestic materials as a single extract. Research on complex mixtures for maximizing plant characteristics by individual extraction and potential interference with effects is insufficient. Therefore, this study confirmed the GC-MSD according to the extraction of essential oils for Agastache rugosa O. Kuntze(AR), Pinus densiflora Sieb. et Zuccarini(PD), Curcuma longa, Curcuma domestica(CC), Zingiber officinale Roscoe(ZR), Foeniculum vulgare Miller(FV), and Citrus medica L. var. sarcodactylis Swingle(CS). The cytotoxicity, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties of the blending oil were confirmed to confirm its potential as a cosmetic material. As a result of analyzing GC-MSD aroma components, the main components were estragole of AR, à-Pinene for PD, Zingiberene for CC and ZR, Anethole from FV, and D-Limonene for CS. At a concentration of 100 uL/mL with no confirmed cytotoxicity, NO production was inhibited by 70.62%, DPPH radical scavenging activity was 64.03%, and ABTS radical scavenging activity was 89.55%. Through this, blended essential oil suggests the possibility of useful application as a raw material with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects in the cosmetic and food industries.

Influence of Achyranthes japonica Nakai Extract (AJNE) on properties of pork sausages were studied in the present investigation. AJNE was added to sausages alone or in combination with ascorbic acid to obtain a comparative analysis on properties of control and ascorbic acid added-sausages. Results showed that addition of 0.05% AJNE led to a decrease in color $L^*$ and whiteness (W), and an increase in color $b^*$ of pork sausage samples (p<0.05). Although color $a^*$ of pork sausages containing AJNE was not significantly different, ascorbic acid added-sausages were highest amongst other treatments (p<0.05). Sausages containing AJNE had lower non-heme iron values and peroxide value (POV) than control sausages (p<0.05); however, high nitrosomyoglobin content was observed in AJNE added-sausages (p<0.05). Ascorbic acid led to a decrease in residual nitrite concentration of sausages (p<0.05), but no difference was found in AJNE added-sausages. Free radical scavenging analysis showed that AJNE did not affect 1,1-diphenyl -2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) activity of sausages, whereas ascorbic acid added-sausages showed relatively higher activity among the samples (p<0.05). Addition of AJNE had no influence on texture properties of sausages. In sensory evaluation, AJNE treatment had significant effects on color (p<0.05), but no significant effects on aroma, flavor, springiness, juiciness, and overall acceptability. In conclusion, the addition of AJNE, as a natural supplement may offer natural antioxidants for pork sausages, and appears to be particularly effective in inducing changes in non-heme iron concentration, POV value and nitrosomyglobin content.

This study was conducted to develop calcium-fortified shank bone extract (SBE) and to determine the effect of adding calcium lactate on physico-chemical characteristics of SBE during cold storage. The following five experiment groups were used: Control (0%, no addition), T1 (0.05% calcium lactate), T2 (0.1% calcium lactate), T3 (0.5% calcium lactate), and T4 (1% calcium lactate). When the concentration of calcium lactate added to the SBE was increased, the pH, redness, and yellowness values were significantly reduced, whereas the salinity, sugar content, and turbidity of SBE were significantly increased. Sensory parameters such as aroma, flavor, and overall acceptability in the control, T1, and T2 had similar scores. The TBARS values of SBE was significantly increased when 1% of calcium lactate was added, and the VBN values of SBE with calcium lactate at day 7 were higher than that of control (p<0.05). However, the addition of calcium lactate showed an inhibition effect on the growth of total microbial counts in SBE until 4 d of storage. The calcium content of SBE was increased by the addition of calcium lactate in a dose-dependently manner. The proper addition level of calcium lactate in the SBE was determined to be 0.1%.

Hydrolysis properties of ginseng saponins in processing of extraction with vacuum impulse system extraction method were compared with multi-stage extraction methods. Crude saponin content of the extract produced by vacuum impulse system extraction method was $11.5\%,$ compared with multi-stage extraction method (about $8.13\%).$ Also the yield of the extract increased about $6.7\%.$ The flavor and aroma of ginseng extract with vacuum impulse system extraction method are stronger than multi-stage extraction methods and people have a tendency to like more. The color was similar to existing extraction items and the liquidity ratio was high. Vacuum impulse system extraction method could save human resources because of short extraction time and automatic operation of processing. With HPLC pattern, We could ascertain the truth that hydrolysis properties of ginseng saponin was restrained in the extraction processing, vacuum impulse system extraction method.

This study was conducted to investigate the possibility of using brown rice as a raw material for preparation of sikhe. The ${\alpha}-amylase$ activity of germinated brown rice was much lower than that of germinated barley; however, the extract and its sugar content of extract prepared from germinated brown rice was similar to those of germinated barley. The extract of sikhe prepared with brown rice at $60^{\circ}C$ for 4 hr was similar to that of milled rice for 1 hr. Sikhe prepared with brown rice did not differ from sikhe prepared from milled rice in sweetness, pH and acidity. Sensory evaluation of sikhe prepared with brown rice showed increase in aroma and decrease in texture compared with sikhe prepared with milled rice.
