  • Conventional Doenjang, three kinds of Improved Doenjang(A; koji: soybean: salt=53: 100: 33, B; koji: soybean: salt=100: 100: 40, C; koji: soybean: salt= 200: 100: 40) prepared with different ratio of koji and salt were made to study the changes in the general contents, characteristics bitter peptides, correlations between bitterness and overall eating quality. 1. Total nitrogen contents increased a little, and amino nitrogen contents in all samples increase markedly. Especially, Amino nitrogen contents of conventrional Doenjang increased more than others. Reducing sugars of doenjang prepared with Asp. oryzae were higher than conventional Doenjang and increased throughout the aging period and Doenjang prepared with Asp. oryzae were more acidic. 2. To characterize bitter peptides in fermented Doenjang, peptides were extracted with 2: 1(v/v) chloroform-methanol and separated by Gel chromato-graphy with Sephadex and TLC. After Gel chromatography and TLC, each fraction examined presence of bitterness and evaluated intensity of bitterness. Amino acid composition of the fractions showing bitter tastes were as follows. Conv. peak 1-1 Trp-(Asp, Arg, Thr, Ser, Glu, Pro)-Phe Imp. A peak 1 Trp-(Glu, Val, Arg, lie)-Phe Imp. B peak 1 Trp-(lie, Pro, Asp, Lys, Val, Glu)-Trp. Imp. C peak 1-2 Trp-(Try, Thr, Glu, Pro, Gly)-Phe 3. Sensory evaluation revealed that correlation coefficient between bitterness and overall eating guality was not high.

  • This study was conducted to investigate the effect of time of hand-thinning on vegetative growth, bitter pit incidence, fruit quality, and return bloom in 'Gamhong'/M.9 apple trees. The time of hand-thinning were 3, 5, 7 and 9 weeks after full bloom, and the primary thinning (leaving only the king fruit on cluster) and secondary thinning (adjusting crop load) were conducted at the same time. The time of hand-thinning was correlated to the vegetative growth, average fruit wight, yield, soluble solids content, bitter pit incidence, and return bloom, negatively, and to the yield of middle grade fruits (fruit weight was 250-299g and none pit on fruit surface) per tree, calcium contents of leaves, and fruit red color, positively. There was no significant effect of time of hand-thinning on fruit firmness, titratable acidity, and total incomes per tree. In conclusion, if the time of hand-thinning of 'Gamhong'/M.9 apple tree was completed at 9 weeks after full bloom, it could produce about 300g of high-quality fruit without bitter pit.

  • During the course of a study to develop a spraying program at 15-day spray intervals, two important findings were identified allowing for further reduction of spray frequency by increasing the spray interval. In evaluating the contribution of fungicides from a 15-day spray interval program, control of white rot, which is of prime importance in Korea, was not affected, in spite of the extended spray interval caused by omitting the fungicides during the season. In another experiment assessing the duration of the protective activities of several key fungicides used in the 15-day spray interval program, infection control was maintained for almost 30 days for some fungicide. Based on these two findings, a basic spraying program with a 25-day spray interval was developed. This program was modified for four successive years to improve the control efficacy against bitter rot and Marssonina blotch, which sometimes causes as much damage as white rot.

  • The experiment studied the effect of harvesting frequencies and varieties on yield, chemical composition and hydrogen cyanide content in cassava foliage. Foliage from three cassava varieties, K94 (very bitter), K98-7 (medium bitter) and a local (sweet), were harvested in three different cutting cycles, at 3, 6 and 9 months; 6 and 9 months and 9 months after planting, in a 2-yr experiment carried out in Hanoi, Vietnam. Increasing the harvesting frequency increased dry matter (DM) and crude protein (CP) production in cassava foliage. The K94 variety produced higher foliage yields than the other two varieties. Dry matter, neutral detergent fibre (NDF), acid detergent fibre (ADF) and total tannin content increased with months to the first harvest, whereas CP content decreased. Hydrogen cyanide (HCN) content was lower at the first harvest than at later harvests for all cutting cycles. At subsequent harvests the content of total tannins tended to decline, while HCN content increased (p<0.05). Chemical composition differed somewhat across varieties except for total tannins and ash. Dry matter, NDF, ADF and total tannins were higher in fully matured leaves, while CP and HCN were lower in developing leaves.

  • In this study, we propose a multichannel interdigitated capacitor (IDC) sensor for detecting the bitterness of coffee. The operating principle of the device is based on the variation in capacitance of a sensing membrane in contact with a bitter solution. Four solvatochromic dyes, namely, Nile red, Reichardt's dye, auramine-O, and rhodamine-B, were mixed with polyvinylchloride (PVC) and N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAC), to create four different types of bitter-sensitive solutions. These solutions were then individually inserted into four interdigitated electrodes (IDEs) using a spin coater, to prepare four distinct IDC sensors. The sensors are capable of detecting bitterness-inducing chemical compounds in any solution, at concentrations of approximately $1{\mu}M$ to 1 M. The sensitivity of the IDC bitterness sensor containing the Reichardt's dye sensing-membrane was approximately 1.58 nF/decade. The multichannel sensor has a response time of approximately 6 s, and an approximate recovery time of 5 s. The proposed sensor offers a stable sensing response and linear sensing performance over a wide measurement range, with a correlation coefficient ($R^2$) of approximately 0.972.

  • This study was carried out to investigate the effect of stem-cutting (SC) length and portion on the major agronomic characters related with dry matter production and accumulation, and to examine their relation­ships in cassava. When cassava was planted with longer SCs or with older portion SCs, major canopy or source characters like leaf number and leaf area index developed excessively, while tuber yields could be reduced due to the decrease of root/shoot ratio, relative growth rate, root dry weight, and harvest index, particularly in the bitter varieties (high cyanide-level varieties). It was considered that the sweet varieties (low cyanide-level varieties) be early­bulked with higher tuber yield when they are planted with the 25-30 cm long SCs or with the SCs from young type to semi-mature portions of mother stems, while the bitter varieties with the 15-20 cm long SCs or with the SCs from semi-mature to hardwood portions of mother stems, respectively. However, a significant interaction between length and portion of SC was not observed in all agronomic characters.
