This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of lotus leaf and lotus root powder on the quality characteristics of sponge cake. Percentages of 4, 8 and 12% of two kinds of lotus powder were added to the batter based on flour content. Baking and cooling loss rate, volume and specific loaf volume, crumb color, texture, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and sensory evaluation of the products were analyzed. The baking and cooling loss rate of the control was lower than cakes with added lotus leaf and lotus root powder. The volume of the control was the largest, and as the amount of lotus leaf and lotus root powder increased, volume and specific loaf volume became smaller. The lightness and yellowness values of the control were higher than those of the experimental cakes, and the loaves with 12% added lotus root powder showed the lowest value. Redness of the experimental cakes increased. In the textual property evaluation, hardness of the control and sponge cakes containing 4% lotus leaf, and lotus root powder appeared to have the lowest value. As the amount of lotus leaf and lotus root powder increased, hardness increased. Springiness showed the same tendency, but cohesiveness of the control revealed the lowest value. The structure of the cake crumb by SEM, revealed that the crumb cells and grains of the experimental cakes were opened and coarse, as the amount of lotus leaf and lotus root powders increased. In a sensory evaluation, sponge cakes containing lotus root powder were preferred rather than those with lotus leaf powder. As a result, good sponge cakes were prepared by adding 4% lotus leaf powder or 8% lotus root powder.

Texture and descriptive sensory characteristics of a Korean rice cake (Karedduk) added with mixture of trehalose and Sun-Tender were investigated after 2, 24, and 48 hrs of storage at $5^{\circ}C$. A central composite design was used for treatment arrangement. The trehalose were added in 0, 3, 6, 9 and 12% levels and Sun-Tender added in 0, 0.3, 0.6, 0.9, and 1.2% levels to dry rice flour. The mixture amounts of trehalose and Sun-Tender on texture and descriptive sensory characteristics of a Korean rice cake (Karedduk) were optimized using response surface methodology (RSM). The two independent variables selected for the RSM were amounts of trehalose ($X_1$) and amounts of Sun-Tender ($X_2$). The predicted value at stationary point or a minimum for texture hardness by RSM was found as 591.5440 after 24 hrs of storage at $5^{\circ}C$. Also the adhesiveness, hardness, cohesiveness and sweetness by sensory characteristics were significantly different as compared to the control. The results suggested that a Korean rice cake (Karedduk) added with mixture of trehalose and Sun-Tender can be made from the mixture amounts of trehalose 9.5826% and Sun-Tender 0.2216% in retarding retrogradation.

Texture properties of a Korean rice cake (Karedduk) added with carbohydrate materials after 0, 2, 6, 24 and 30 hrs of storage at $5^{\circ}C$ were investigated using textural characteristics and sensory descriptive analysis. Carbohydrate materials such as powdered sugar, trehalose, fructooligosaccharide (95%), isomalto, healtholigo, and galactooligosaccharide (50%) were added in 0, 1, 5 and 10% levels to dry rice flour. The texture profile analysis by Texture Analyzer revealed that adhesiveness and cohesiveness of the Korean rice cake (Karedduk) added with carbohydrate materials were similar to those of the control in trends, while hardness was low compared to the control except for fructooligosaccharide (95%) 5% and healtholigo 1% addition. The hardness and sweetness by sensory characteristics were significantly different compared to the control. Instrumental hardness was correlated with sensory hardness. Lastly, the Korean rice cake (Karedduk) added with carbohydrate materials except fructooligosaccharide (95%) 5% and healtholigo 1% addition was effective in delaying retrogradation.

In this study, we examined the quality of fish cakes prepared using the flour obtained from the following different rice varieties: Baekogchal, Dodamssal, Hangaru, Jeogjinju 2, Josaengheugchal, Saeminyeon, Saeilmi, and Shingil. The moisture content of the fish paste containing rice flour ranged from 67.40% to 69.90%, and was highest in the paste prepared using Baekogchal flour. The lipid and protein contents of the paste ranged from 0.05% to 0.43% and 11.36% to 11.69%, respectively, whereas the carbohydrate content was between 10.36% and 12.32%, and was highest in the paste prepared using Jeogjinju 2 flour. Fish cakes prepared using the flour from Baekogchal, Jeogjinju 2, and Josaengheugchal rice were found to have the hardest consistency. Sensory evaluations indicated that fish cakes prepared using Shingil flour had the best texture. Furthermore, the total polyphenol content was significantly higher in the fish cakes prepared using Josaengheugchal flour (165.12 mg GAE/100 g), whereas the DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities were significantly higher in the fish cakes prepared using Josaengheugchal flour (39.37 and 175.37 mg TE/100 g, respectively). In conclusion, we confirmed that the quality of fish cakes is affected by the characteristics of the flours obtained from different rice varieties. Among the varieties assessed, the quality of Shingil and Josaengheugchal varieties was suitable for preparing rice-containing fish cakes.

In this study, the method of evaluation of moisturizing ability of cosmetics using specimens was studied as an alternative method of clinical tests. Cosmetic spreadability, surface drying, and moisture loss rate of four specimens (Japanese cake (Maru mochi), Garaetteok, wheat flour, and agar) were evaluated. Also, the water loss rate of the specimens and the transepidermal waterloss were analyzed for 10 kinds of lip make-up products (5 kinds of lipstick, 3 kinds of lip balm, 2 kinds of lip gloss). The moisture loss rate (moisture evaporation sensitivity) of the agar specimen was highest in the order of agar> Garaetteok> Japanese cake> wheat flour. Agar specimens are the most suitable in terms of spreadability, surface crack, and raw material supply. Containers for the preparation of agar specimens are suitable for plastic materials with low heat transfer, which can produce convex, smooth surface specimens. In the evaluation of moisturizing ability of lip makeup products, there was a strong correlation between the water loss rate and the transepidermal waterloss rate measured with agar specimens. These results show that the proposed method can be used as one of the useful alternative test methods.

The four varieties of Korean soybeans were allowed to undergo natural fermentation for seven days at ambient temperature. The average pH of the product was 3.93 and titratable acidity was 1.94%. For all varieties of soybeans the content of riboflavin increased from 98 to $309.4{\mu}g/100g$ dry-matter, relative nutritive value from 78.66 to 94.59% and available lysine from 6.56 to 7.38 mg/gN, respectively. During fermentation, the activities of protease and lipase increased, while lipoxygenase and trypsin inhibitor activity decreased markedly. The capacity of water sorption of fermented soybean flour was increased with progress of proteolysis during fermentation. The cookie and noodle prepared with 20:80 mixture of fermented soybean flour and wheat flour were in the 'like' category, but it was desirable to neutralize the sour taste produced by fermentation. Among five kinds of products prepared from the fermented soybean flour pan cake was liked most by rural consumers.

Four different oligosaccharides used to determine their effects on gelatinization and retrogradation of Backsulgies(BSG), Korean traditional rice cake, were cyclodextrin, isomaltooligosaccharide, fructooligosaccharide and maltotetrose, with 3 or 6%(w/w), based on the rice flour. From the Amylograph and blue value data, adding 6% cyclodextrin into the rice flour fastened the gelatinzation process, and delayed the retrogradation in stored BSG at 4$\^{C}$ for up to 3 days, probably due to its cyclic structure. Using rheometer, the hardness of freshly made BSG added with cyclodextrin was significantly lower than that of control BSG, and increased with storage time in all BSGs at refrigerated temperature. When using maltotetrose in rice flour, the hardness of BSG was also significantly low, but slightly higher than that of cyclodextrin. Hunter “L” value in BSG decreased with the addition of oligosaccharides, but the higher the level of oligosaccharide in BSG, the insignificant the Hunter “a”,“b” values of BSG. From the X-ray diffraction studies, the rice flour showed typical A pattern, and the crystallinities of all BSG gave amorphous V type. The highest peaks of X-ray patterns in BSG added with 6% cyclodextrin or maltotetrose were, however, lower than that of the control, meaning the less crystalline, retrograded starch in the former BSGs. Based on sensory evaluation, BSG added with all oligosacchrides were not significantly different in taste, flavor, chewiness, moistness and overall preferences, with slightly darker color with longer storage time, compared to the control BSG.

We investigated the effect of the modified starch [physical treatment, acetate (SA-1, SA-2, and SA-3), hydroxypropyl (HS), and acetylated distarch adipate] content on the physicochemical properties of fish cakes, called Eomuk in Korea, during storage at -20℃. When wheat flour (native starch, NS) was used, the moisture content decreased during frozen storage, resulting in a lower water-holding capacity and higher expressible drip. Compared with NS, adding modified starch had a lower effect on the moisture content during frozen storage. The water-holding capacity and expressible drip differed with the type of modified starch added. The expressible drip was lowest with HS; the SA-3 and HS modified starch were whiter than NS. Therefore, HS and SA-1 are suitable additives to improve the quality of frozen fish cakes.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of sponge cakes with addition of mushroom (Pleurotus eryngii) powders prepared by different drying methods, hot air (HDMP: hot air dried mushroom powder) and freeze drying (FDMP: freeze dried mushroom powder). The specific gravities, viscosity, height, specific volume, color, texture and sensory evaluation of bread dough containing 3%, 5% and 7% mushroom powders were measured. The specific gravity and viscosity tended to increase according to the addition of mushroom powder. The height and specific volume tended to decrease according to the addition mushroom powder. Substituting mushroom powder for flour also resulted in decreased yellowness and lightness and increased redness of the cake crust. The hardness of cakes containing mushroom powders was higher than tat of control without mushroom powders. The color of cake crust became darker as the amount of mushroom powders increased. The results of sensory evaluation by QDA (quantitative descriptive analysis) to compare two different drying methods showed that overall acceptalility of sponge cakes containing 3% and 5% mushroom power were higher than that of control without mushroom powder.
