This study was designed to investigate the effects of roasting temperatures on the antinutritional factors and functional properties of sesame protein isolates. The protein contents a sesame protein isolates (SPI) prepared at roasting temperatures of 5$0^{\circ}C$, 10$0^{\circ}C$, 15$0^{\circ}C$ and 20$0^{\circ}C$ were 65.5%, 66.6%. 68.9% and 64.1%, respectively. Total phenolic compounds, condensed tannin and phytate contents of SPI was increased from 5$0^{\circ}C$ to 20$0^{\circ}C$. From color measurements, higher roasting temperature decreased 'L' and 'b' values significantly, but 'a' value was increased. The bulk density, fat absorption and water absorption of SPI was increased as the temperature of roasting was increased. Sesame protein isolates prepared by roasting at 5$0^{\circ}C$, 10$0^{\circ}C$ and 15$0^{\circ}C$ had higher emulsifying activity than those prepared by roasting at 20$0^{\circ}C$. Foaming capacity of SPI was not changed by roasting up to 10$0^{\circ}C$, but this property was reduced dramatically when roasted at 20$0^{\circ}C$.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics of sponge cake with broccoli (Brassica oleracea var. italica Plenck) powder. Broccoli powder was mixed with wheat flour at various ratio (3, 5, 7, 9%, w/w) for physical and sensory evaluations. The specific gravity of bread dough increased with added broccoli powder. The moisture of the sponge cakes with added broccoli powder was higher than that of control. In the crumb color values, lightness (L) and redness (a) decreased upon broccoli powder addition, whereas yellowness (b) significantly increased (p<0.05). In the texture analysis hardness, cohesiveness, springiness and gumminess were reduced by addition of broccoli powder. When we evaluated the sensory characteristics of five subareas (color, flavor, texture, taste, and overall acceptability), 7% broccoli sponge cake showed the highest sensory properties except for flavor (p<0.05). Therefore, the results suggested that 7% broccoli sponge cake could be helpful in improving physical quality and taste.

From August 2012 to April 2013, the ichthyofauna and post-restoration properties of Yangjae stream were investigated. A total of 1,503 fish of 2 forms, 16 species and 5 families were studied during the survey period. A survey of the distribution of freshwater fish inhabiting Yangjae stream after restoration of the stream showed large populations of Zacco platypus and Rhynchocypris oxycephalus. From the frequency distribution of the total length for the Zacco platypus population inhabiting Yangjae stream, it was estimated that there are 4 distinct age groups, with an abundance of the 27-63 mm (Age $0^+$) category accounting for 51.3% of the population. The regression coefficient (b) for the length-weight relationship in Zacco platypus was 3.27, while the slope of the condition factor was positive, demonstrating that stable growth conditions are being maintained. Analysis of tolerance and trophic guilds showed a decrease in the numbers of sensitive species and insectivore species further downstream, and an increase in tolerant species and omnivore species. Principal component analysis using community indices and indices of biotic integrity (IBI) showed that there were differences according to the survey time: the first and second surveys showed major changes on certain single species populations while during the third survey, it was analyzed that the populations of various types of fish had established balance.

The study was performed to investigate the effects of delayed gamma-irradiation and CA storage on the keeping quality of chestnuts. Chestnuts peviously stored for 3 months at 0$^{\circ}C$ were irradiated at 0 to 0.25 kGy of Co$\^$60/ gamma rays and then stored for 6 months under CA conditions of 3% O$_2$ and 5% CO$_2$ or air at 0$^{\circ}C$. Delayed gamma-irradiation completely inhibited the sprouting of chestnuts, and tore reduced the rotting rate by the combination with CA storage. The weight loss was reduced by delayed gamma-irradiation and CA storage. Hunter L and b values of flesh surface of the chestnuts stored under CA were higher than those of samples stored under air regardless of gamma irradiation. Vitamin C, total sugar and reducing sugar contents decreased immediately after irradiation Vitamin C and reducing sugar contents after 6 months of storage were lower in the samples kept under CA than in those under air. Results indicated that delayed gamma-irradiation after harvest and subsequent CA storage showed inhibitory effects against the development of saluting and rotting and the loss of weights and surface flesh color changes in chestnuts.

This study was conducted to investigate the physicochemical quality properties of oriental melon pickles harvested after pollination (green and fully ripe period) and soaking (cured and ripened). After the increase of the pollination size of melon, at 21 days, melon had a strong yellowish color, but at 24 days, its tip was completely yellow. In addition, 21 days after 5 days soaking, the weights of the harvested melons were reduced. Since then, there were no remarkable changes in weight. At 27 and 30 days, the b values of the melons that were harvested showed no trace of influence by the number of days of soaking and ripening. The melons harvested after 24 and 27 days, and the oriental melon pickles, maintained a constant hardness and texture after five days of soaking. This result indicates that melons harvested between 15 and 27 days after pollination can be used for melon pickles. To produce high-quality melon pickles with a yellowish color and a chewy texture, melons harvested 27 days after pollination and then soaked and ripened in salt water for 15 days should be used.

To enhance the commercialization of fresh cut kimchi cabbage, the short-term storage effect of cut kimchi cabbage treated with $Ca^{2+}$ was studied. Cut kimchi cabbages ($3{\times}3$ cm) were treated with 2% calcium chloride (Ca), ascorbic acid (As), citric acid (Ct), and calcium chloride and citric acid (Ca/Ct), were put inside LDPE bags, and stored at $5^{\circ}C$ for 6 weeks. The weights reduced about 0.13~0.72%, and the ratio was the lowest in the Ca/Ct treatment. The reduction ratios of soluble soilds were 18.85~35.00%, and were the lowest in the Ca/Ct treatment. The titratable acidity decreased in all the treatments. The L values decreased, but a and b values of Hunter colorimeter increased in all the treatments. The preference for Ca/Ct treatment was the highest among all the treatments in the sensory evaluation. The marketing shelf-life of cut kimchi cabbage can be prolonged by the combination treatment of $Ca^{2+}$ and citric acid.

This study was performed to evaluate the physiological and sensory properties of breads with different ratios of persimmon peel. Moisture activation of the bread loaf decreased as storage period increased with a smaller range of decrease in the persimmon peel added group. The amount of weight increased, and volume fell to some degree. Adding persimmon peel increased the RVA temperature, whereas maximum decreased. The color change during storage was due to the addition of control and 4% in group a values except there was no significant difference. As the result of measurements using a texture analyzer, hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness properties decreased. The sensory test results revealed that the 4% and 6% added persimmon peel bread was the best.

This study was to investigate the quality characteristics of instant rice cake (Baekseolgi) with different concentrations of ginseng powder by molecular press dehydration (MPD) method. Baekseolgi was cooked using microwave oven, which is a useful cooking method because of reduced cooking time, even though it quickly takes moisture from food surface and lowers food quality. The result indicated that moisture content of Baekseolgi without ginseng powder was decreased; however, there was no significant difference in the Baekseolgi with ginseng powder with increased storage time for 24 hrs. The L value was decreased and a color value was increased with increasing concentrations of ginseng powder (p<0.05). There was no significant difference in the color values within the storage time. The hardness, gumminess, and chewiness of Baekseolgi without ginseng powder significantly changed as the storage time increased; in contrast, those of Baekseolgi with ginseng powder did not show such a significant change. The result of sensory evaluation showed that Baekseolgi with ginseng powder has higher scores in terms of color, flavor, taste, and overall acceptability than Baekseolgi without ginseng powder. Results of this study indicate the addition of ginseng powder to Baekseolgi improves moisture content, color value, and texture properties as well as sensory characteristics.
