This study was conducted to evaluate the quality characteristics of Backsulgies prepared using different ratios (0, 10, 20, 30, 40%) of trehalose after 4 days of storage. As the concentration of trehalose increased, the moisture content of the Backsulgies decreased. Furthermore, increased levels of trehalose, resulted in significantly lower L and b values. However, the a values did not differ significantly in response to the addition of trehalose. The total cell counts of Backsulgies also decreased as the level of trehalose increased, which indicates that microorganisms were inhibited by its addition. Furthermore, the hardness of the Backsulgies decreased as the level of trehalose increased, whereas the hardness of the Backsulgies increased as the storage time was extended. Finally, the sensory evaluations revealed that the chewiness and hardness of Backsulgies decreased as the level of trehalose increased.

The objectives of this study were to investigate the quality characteristic of the nutrition bar with various concentrations (0, 5, 10, 20%) of defatted ginseng seed meal(DGSM). Specific gravity and pH of bar batters were lower in bars containing DGSM. Specific volume, loss rate and leavening rate of bars were decreased as DGSM increased. In color of bar crust and crumb, the L and bcolor values decreased according to the level of DGSM added, whereas the a color valuesand ${\triangle}$ increased. The bars with 5, 10 and 20% DGSM had significantly higher hardness value than control bar (p < 0.05). The result of sensory evaluation showed that intensity scores for color, flavor, taste, after taste and texture were highest for the nutrition bar substituted with 20% DGSM. The nutrition bar with 10% DGSM attained the highest overall acceptability score. Results indicated that optimal concentration of DGSM into the nutrition bar was 10%.

The influence of gamma irradiation with low doses (0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 kGy) on the meat quality of chicken breast was determined for 6 days of storage at $4^{\circ}C$. The pH of irradiated chicken was lower than that of the control at day 1 (p<0.05), while no difference was found among irradiation at different doses. Drip loss was higher in irradiated chicken with doses of 0.5 and 1.0 kGy compared to the control at day 1 and day 3 (p<0.05). Lightness (L) at day 1 and day 6 was increased due to irradiation (p<0.05). Redness (a) increased with irradiation doses of 1.0 and 1.5 kGy at day 1 and day 3 (p<0.05). However, no significant differences were found in yellowness (b). The number of aerobic plate count of irradiated chicken during storage was significantly lower than the control (p<0.05). E. coli and coliforms were not detected after irradiation at any dose. Also, irradiation doses of 1.0 and 1.5 kGy significantly reduced volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) and 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) values compared to the control during storage (p<0.05). These results suggest that low dose gamma irradiation can be useful to extend the shelf life of chicken breast during cold storage.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of a high protein diet containing barley on the growth performance and carcass characteristics of finishing pigs. A total of fifty six [(Landrace${\times}$Yorkshire${\times}$Duroc)] pigs (85.08 kg in average initial body weight) were used for a 6-week study. Dietary treatments included 1) Basal diet (CON) and 2) High protein diet with barley 5% (HB5). During the entire test periods, there were no significant differences in Average daily gain (ADG), Average daily feed intake (ADFI) and gain/feed ratio between treatments (p>0.05). The b value of M. logissimus dorsi muscle color was significantly increased in CON fed pigs compared to pigs fed the HB5 diet (p<0.05). The water holding capacity (WHC) was higher in HB5 than CON fed pigs (p<0.05). Also, drip loss was significantly decreased in HB5 compared to CON fed pigs (p<0.05). Backfat thickness, live weight, cold carcass weight, dressing, and carcass grade were not significantly affected by either treatment (p>0.05). In conclusion, the results of this study indicate that a high protein diet with 5% barley affects meat color, WHC and drip loss in finishing pigs.

To develop a new quality control method for the evaluation of Korean instant noodle soups, the chemical characteristics of roasted red pepper powder (RRP), mixed with lard were investigated while in storage at $65^{\circ}C$ for 6 weeks. The moisture contents of the RRP increased but the crude protein and crude lipid contents decreased up to 4 weeks of storage. The pH value decreased and the acid value increased steadily during storage. Both the American Spice Trade Association (ASTA) value that indicates redness of red pepper, and the CIE L, a, and b values decreased remarkably during storage. The fatty acids of the RRP oil were primarily oleic acid (33.4%), linoleic acid (30.8%), and palmitic acid (21.2%). The composition of fatty acids did not significantly change after 6 weeks of storage (p>0.05). Regarding the free fatty acid (FFA) composition of the RRP oil, palmitic acid (36.5%) was the principal component. The total amount of FFA and the amount of each individual FFA increased remarkably during storage. In addition, the ratio of free unsaturated fatty acids to free saturated fatty acids increased during storage.

An investigation was carried out to elucidate the effects of type of ginseng, concentration of ginseng, and type of coagulants on the physical and sensory properties of soybean curd. The textural properties of soybean curd were not influenced by the type of ginseng. Soybean curd coagulated with glucono-delta-lactone (GDL) showed a greater hardness than that coagulated with other coagulants, whereas the former produced a lesser springiness than the latter. The L-value was proportionally reduced by the increase of ginseng level and soybean curd coagulated with $CaCl_2$ showed the lowest L value. All the curd products prepared with ginseng had a pale yellow color. In the sensory properties, springiness and beany taste of soybean curd linearly decreased as the concentration of ginseng was increased. The concentration of ginseng to improve the acceptability of ginseng soybean curd as determined by the physical and sensory evaluation, was less than 0.25%. The most acceptable ginseng soybean curd was the one coagulated with $MgCl_2$. Soybean curd prepared with GDL had the lowest acceptability because of its sour taste and textural properties.

Citrus juice was treated with supercritical carbon dioxide $(SC-CO_{2})$ and the effect of temperature and pressure on quality of citrus juice was determined. Pectinesterase (PE) was inactivated by $(SC-CO_{2})$ below temperatures necessary for thermal inactivation. There was no significant change in the pH, Brix and total acidity of citrus juice before and after $(SC-CO_{2})$ treatment, but brightness was improved. More ascorbic acid was retained during $(SC-CO_{2})$ treatment of citrus juice than thermal treatment $(93^{\circ}C/0.66\;min)$.During storage of supercritically treated citrus juice at $4^{\circ}C$, activity of PE was reversible. Sensory evaluation showed that color, flavor, taste and overall acceptance of $(SC-CO_{2})$ treated juice were not significantly different from untreated juice. This method offers potentially beneficial processing avenues for citrus juice and other juices, especially in the area of minimally processed products.

This study was carried out to investigate the efficacy of strong acidic electrolyzed acid water (SAEW; Strong acidic electrolyzed water, pH 2.76, ORP 1,128 mV, HClO 105.0 ppm) and low alkaline electrolyzed water (LAEW; Low alkaline electrolyzed water, pH 8.56, ORP 660 mV, HClO 73.8 ppm) as storing liquid for peeled lotus root. During storage at $5^{\circ}C$, it was showed that SAEW and LAEW inhibit growth of microorganisms until at least 5 days of storage. Total phenolic contents, polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity, and color differences value $({\Delta}E)$ of peeled lotus roots stored in SAEW and LAEW were lower than that of one stored in TW (tap water). The hardness decrement of lotus roots stored in SAEW and LAEW were lower than that of lotus root stored in TW too. Contents of moisture crude protein crude fat, crude ash, crude fiber, and total sugars were gradually decreased during storage. Whereas vitamin C content of lotus root stored in 0.6% acetic acid was most rapidly decreased to 25% as compared with one of initial days of storage that of lotus roots stored in SAEW and LAEW was not decreased significantly as compared with one stored in TW. Sensory characteristic during storage was preferable on lotus root stored in SAEW to the other treatments.
