Effects of cold plasma treatment (CPT) against Salmonella Typhimurium inoculated on cabbage and lettuce, naturally occurring bacteria in black pepper powder and red pepper powder, and Bacillus cereus inoculated onto red pepper powder were investigated. The numbers of S. Typhimurium on cabbage and lettuce were reduced by $1.5{\pm}0.2CFU/cm^2$ (900W, 5 min) and $1.1{\pm}0.1$ log $CFU/cm^2$ (900W, 10 min), respectively. The numbers of naturally occurring aerobic bacteria in both black pepper powder and red pepper powder were reduced by $2.3{\pm}0.3$ and $0.6{\pm}0.2$ log CFU/g, respectively. The numbers of B. cereus vegetative cells on red pepper powder were reduced by $1.5{\pm}0.1$ log CFU/g, but the numbers of spores remained unchanged. The inhibition of S. Typhimurium on cabbage was adequately described by Fermi's model and the Weibull model. The predicted optimum treatment power and time for S. Typhimurium inoculated onto cabbage were 746 W and 6.8 min, respectively. Our results indicate that CPT represents a useful method for microbial decontamination of vegetables and spices.

The strains of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, C. coccodes, C. acutatum isolated from black raspberry were pathogenic to apple and strawberry after dropping inoculation, but showed weak pathogenicity in hot-pepper and tomato. The anthracnose pathogens of C. gloeosporioides, C. orbiculare, C. acutatum isolated from apple, hot-pepper and pumpkin showed pathogenicity in black raspberry. Moreover, the anthracnose pathogens isolated from apple caused disease symptoms in non-wounded inoculation.

Physical detection methods, photostimulated luminescence (PSL), thermoluminescence (TL) and electron spin resonance (ESR) were applied to detect electron beam-irradiated agricultural products, such as red pepper, black pepper, raisin, walnut, beef seasoning and pistachio. The absorbed irradiation doses for representative samples were controled at 0, 1, 3, 5 and 10 kGy. PSL values for non-irradiated samples were <700 counts/60s (lower threshold, $T_1$) except beef seasoning, whereas those of irradiated samples were more than 5,000 photon counts, upper threshold ($T_2$) in black pepper, raisin, and beef seasoning and intermediates values of $T_1-T_2$ in red pepper, walnut, and pistachio. Minerals seperated from the samples for TL measurement showed that non-irradiated samples except pistachio (TL ratio, 0.12) were characterized by no glow curves situated at temperature range of $50{\sim}400^{\circ}C$ with TL ratio (0.01~0.08), while irradiated samples except pistachio at only 1 kGy (TL ratio, 0.08) indicated glow curve at about $150{\sim}250^{\circ}C$ with TL ratio (0.28~3.10). ESR measurements of irradiated samples showed any specific signals to irradiation. The samples of both red pepper and pistachio were produced specific signals derived from cellulose radicals as well as single line signals for black pepper and walnut, and multiple signals derived from crystalline sugar radicals for raisin and beef seasoning. In conclusion, The ESR methods can apply for detection of pistachio exposed to electron beam but PSL and TL are not suitable methods. Furthermore, TL and ESR suggeted that both techniques were more useful detection method than PSL to confirm whether red pepper, walnut and beef seasoning samples have been exposed to electron beam.

For initiation of resistance breeding program of the red pepper, 21 PR ($Phytophthora$ resistance) cultivars, 36 cultivars collected from USA and 'Supermanitta' which is a susceptible cultivar against phytophthora blight were assayed against phytophthora blight, powdery mildew, and anthracnose. For seedling assay of phytophthora blight, three different mating type strains of $Phytophthora$ $capsici$ were used (A1, A2, Sterile). The result showed that most of the pepper of PR cultivars were resistance or moderately resistance at each mating type. 'Yeokganghongjanggun' was resistant to all three $P.$ $capsici$ strains and 'PR-Datta' and 'PR-Manitta' were resistant or moderately resistant at each type. In case of the collected cultivars, 'NuMex J.E.Parker', 'Omni Color', and 'SCM334' were resistant to all the three types and some cultivars including 'Sweet Banana' and 'Tabasco' were moderately resistant to each type fungi. 'Orange Habanero' and 'Black Cuban' were resistant to powdery mildew and 'Supermanitta' and 'PR Keumdong' were moderately resistant, while 'Santa Fe Grande', 'NuMex Pinata' and 'Puya' were very susceptible. In the case of anthracnose, 'Aji Limon' and 'Capsicum baccatum var. pendulum 3-4' were resistant and 'Pobalno', 'Omni Color', 'Negro', 'Mesilla', 'Mulato', 'Bhut Jolokia', 'Big Dipper', 'Black Cuban', 'NuMex Pinata', and 'NuMex Big Jim' were moderately resistant. The most PR cultivars except 'Taesan' were susceptible or very susceptible. These resistant individuals identified through this experiment can be used as sources of resistance to pepper pathogens in the future breeding programs.

Piperine (piperinoyl-piperidine) is a nitrogenous pungent substance contained in black pepper. the well know spice obtained from Piper nigrum L. (Piperaceae). Pharmacological studies have shown that piperine reduces inflammation and pain. possesses anticonvulsant and antiulcer activity. protects the liver and has deleterious effects on testis function. Prostaglandins(PGs) are a family of intercellular and intracellular messengers derived from arachidonic acid(AA) by phospholipase(PL) and cyclooxygenase(COX). (omitted)

Three Bacillus strains were isolated from soil samples. Morphological and physiologi­cal characterization indicated that the isolated strains were B. mycoides, B. licheniformis and B. brevis. White pepper was produced from black pepper by the fermentative method using the isolates in shake flaks as well as in a large-scale fermenter. Volatile oil and piperine contents of the product were $3.2\%$ (v/w) and $4\%$ (v/w) respectively. The moisture content was $15\%$. The mi­crobial contamination was less than 10 per 100 g. The product also exhibited excellent storage stability.

A virus which induced yellowing, vein banding and ruffling on pepper in the field was investigated. The virus reacted strongly with PVY - antiserum in ELISA, but not with antisera of cucumber mosaic virus, tobacco mosaic virus, tomato black ring virus, alfalfa mosaic virus, tomato spotted wilt virus, tobacco etch virus, pepper mottle virus, and tobacco ringspot virus. Electron micrographs revealed that the virus was a flexuous rod of 750-760nm in length. The virus was transmitted mechanically and by Myzus persicae in a nonpersistent manner. The host range was similar to that of PVY, except that Chenopodium amaranticolor and C. quinoa were infected systemiclly.

This study was conducted to examine the effects of levels of flavoring materials on the sensory characteristics of chicken feet Jokpyun (Korean traditional gel type food) and to determine the optimum levels. Consumer desirability of Jokpyun flavored with different levels of black pepper and ginger was evaluated. Optimum levels of variables were obtained using response surface methodology. The levels were 0.33% and 0.1% for black pepper and ginger extract, respectively. The shelf-life of the optimized Jokpyun at $4^{\circ}C$ was determined as 6 days. Addition of powdered chicken broth in the Jokpyun preparation at the level of 1.5%(w/w) markedly increased boiled chicken flavor without resulting in undesirable properties.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes of flavor and taste characteristics of black pepper treated with three different nonthermal sterilization methods, which are intense pulsed light (IPL), ultraviolet (UV), and cold plasma (CP). Also, the sensorial and instrumental evaluation of black pepper before and after nonthermal treatments were analyzed. As a result of color value, UV and CP treatments did not show chromacity difference (ΔE), but IPL treatment showed a significant difference of 6.58. Piperine contents of sample before nonthermal treatments was 10.7±0.53 mg/g and the piperine contents of all samples decreased after nonthermal treatments. The result of the electronic nose analysis were divided into two groups before and after nonthermal treatments, and divided into three group by principle component analysis. According to the intensity test, after nonthermal treatments, all sample had low flavor and taste, and the intensity was in the order of IPL, CP, and UV. In thirteen sensory attribute languages developed through quantitiative descriptive analysis (QDA), the intensity value of the samples were low after nonthermal treatments.

The changes in ingredients, seasonings and cooking methods of Japchae in Korean cook books published from the 1600s to the 1960s were investigated in this study. Japchae was a royal dish enjoyed by Kwanhaegun of Joseon Dynasty and interesting historical story is contained in it. Kwanghaegun Ilgi in 1608 showed that Japchae was Kwanghaegun's favorite dish. Therefore, it has been thought that Japchae was created in the 17th century. Wonhaengeulmyojeongrieugye in 1796 described bellflower Japchae and mungbean sprout Japchae. The traditional Japchae was made without glass noodle called dangmyeon. Eumsikdimibang in 1670 first introduced traditional Japchae, which was made with 20 different ingredients and then served with topping sauce made of pheasant broth, strained soybean paste and wheat flour. Japchae in Kyugonyoram(1896) was prepared by mixing mungbean sprout, watercress, gonjasoni, tripe and yukhwe with mustard. The current style Japchae with glass noodle first appeared in the 1920s and became popular in the 1950s because the traditional Japchae was described in cook books until the 1940s. There were two ways of preparing current style Japchae. Yijogungjeongyoritonggo in 1957 described Japchae was made by mixing the boiled glass noodle with other ingredients and seasonings together. On the other hand, Japchae in Urinaraeumsikmandeuneunbeob(1960) was prepared by seasoning first with other ingredients, and then mixing boiled glass noodle. A variety of ingredients - vegetables, mushrooms, meat, fish, pheasant, beef tong, sea cucumber, gonjasoni and pear - has been used to prepare Japchae. Japchae has been seasoned with ginger, soy sauce, black pepper, sesame salt, sesame oil, oil, leek, garlic, salt, sugar, vinegar and mustard. Egg strips, pine nut, thin strips of Shiitake and stone mushroom, red pepper threads, Chinese pepper(cheoncho), black pepper and ginger were used for garnishing.
