Sugar cookies using various levels of citron powder were prepared and the physicochemical and sensory characteristics were investigated in this study. The pH of the dough was relatively lower in the groups with increased citron powder. The yellowness of dough color was significantly increased from value of 23.47 to 36.99 as the substitution levels of citron powder content was increased (p<0.05). The degree of gelatinization of the dough measured using DSC was reduced with increasing delayed with the increased amount of the powder content. Cookies with powders content of 4-6 g showed significantly lower water contents than compared to those with 0-2 g(p<0.05). The spread factor tended to decrease as the substitution levels of the sample groups were increased. The results of sensory characteristics showed significantly higher bitterness and lower sweetness with the 6 g substituted sample group at (p<0.05). Desired citron cookie was prepared with the group of a substitution levels of 4 g citron powder from the confounded viewpoint of the physicochemical and sensory properties that were investigated.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of citron (Citrus junos) on Dongchimi (watery radish kimchi) fermentation. Dongchimi with various levels (0, 1, 2, 4, 6％) of citron was fermented at 10$^{\circ}C$ for 36 days. The pH of Dongchimi decreased slowly in all samples during fermentation, however, it was slightly lower in citron-added Dongchimi. Total acidity and turbidity of Dongchimi increased gradually during formentation, in which the level of increase was greater as the ％ of added citron increased. However, the total acidity and turbidity of Dongchimt without citron increased dramatically on 36$\^{th}$/ day of fermentation, and reached the values similar to those of Dongchimi with 6% citron. Reducing sugar content increased gradually up to 15∼23 days of fermentation and decreased rapidly for the rest of the period. The content of vitamin C was much higher in citron-added Dongchimi, and especially it was 4 times higher than that of without citron at the beginning of fermentation. The number of lactic acid bacteria reached the maximum on 15$\^{th}$/ day in citron-added Dongchimi and on 30$\^{th}$/ day in Dongchimi without citron, and decreased thereafter.

The results of adding citrus to Jeungpyun in order to diversify the kinds of Jeungpyun available as well as enhance the usage of citrus fruits, were assessed in this study. During fermentation pH was reduced carbon dioxide development was lowest in the citron product and then the tangerine, cumquat and control Jeungpyun, respectively. Volume and specific volume of Jeungpyun were highest id the cumquat Jeungpyun. For all the citrus additions, except for the cumquat there were no significant differences when compared to the control. The tangerine product showed the highest redness and yellowness among the types of citrus, fellowed by cumquat, citron, and lemon. In the textural property tests, hardness was highest in the lemon Jeungpyun. Then, less hardness occurred in the order of citron, control, tangerine and the cumquat Jeungpyun was the softest. In the sensory evaluation, preferred color was in the order of tangerine, cumquat citron, and lemon Jeungpyun. Ultimately, the tangerine Jeungpyun had the best color. In the taste test, preferred taste was in the order of cumquat, citron, tangerine, and lemon Jeungpyun, all resulting in better taste than the pure Jeungpyun. The softness of the Jeungpyun was good in the order of cumquat, tangerine, control, citron, and lemon Jeungpyun. Thus, the cumquat Jeungpyun was softest, while lemon Jeungpyun was hardest. Finally, overall acceptance was good in the order of cumquat, tangerine, citron, control, and lemon Jeungpyun.

This study was performed to examine the physicochemical characteristics of Korean traditional fermented liquor added with citron juice and the levels (3, 6 and 9%) of citron (Citrus junos) juice during two-step-brewing. The pH of traditional Korean fermented liquor added with citron juice increased after 3 days of fermentation and then the pH values decreased from the sixth day. pH increased again at the end of fermentation. Total acidity increased after 5 days of fermentation until the sixth day, then decreased rapidly but increased slightly up to 12 days. Alcohol content increased to 12.76-14.32% after 12 days of fermentation. As the amount of added citron juice increased, alcohol content decreased. Amino acids increased after 12 days of fermentation. A sensory evaluation appearance, flavor, sourness, sweetness, bitterness and overall acceptance of Korean traditional fermented liquor added with 6% citron showed higher values than those of the control.

To accept basic data of utilizing of citron (Citrus junos) as a raw material of industrial produce, major chemical components of citron were investigated. Weight ration of poet flesh md seed of citron were 44.7, 42.9 and 12.4%, respectively. Comparing proximate composition of peel and flesh of citron, peel showed higher in crude protein crude fat and crude ash than flesh but lower in moisture, carbohydrate and soluble solid. The major free sugars of citron were fructose, glucose and sucrose. Peel contained higher in sucrose than flesh, but lower in fructose and glucose. The content of K md P were 309 and 15.9 mg% in peel and 175 and 22.4 mg% in fresh, respectively. The main organic acids of citron were citrate, malate and oxalate. Total organic acid content of flesh (6.6%) was higher than that of peel (4.6%). Total amino acid content of peel and flesh were 671.9 and 315.7 mg%, respectively. Free amino acid content of peel and flesh were 324.3 and 280.7 mg%, respectively, and the major ones were proline, serine, glutamic acid, aspartic acid, and histidine. Total 49 volatile compounds were detected and 26 of these ones were identified in cion. The major volatile component of citron was limonene, which consists of 80% among the total volatiles in peel by all extract methods.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of addition of 0.1% rosemary, 0.9% citron peel powder and 0.1% rosemary combination with 0.9% citron peel powder on the POV, TBARS, aerobic microorganisms and nitrite scavenging of emulsion-type sausages. The POV values of sausage containing citron peel powder were significantly lower than those of control at 60 days of storage. The TBARS values of sausage containing rosemary, citron peel powder and rosemary combination with citron peel powder were lower than those of control at 20 and 40 days of storage. The aerobic microorganisms count of sausage containing rosemary, citron peel powder and rosemary combination with citron peel powder were lower than those of control at 20 and 45 days of storage. The nitrite scavenging of sausage containing rosemary were higher than those of control at 20 and 60 days of storage.

This study aimed to optimize the preparation method of citron (Citrus junos Sieb.) beverages with hibiscus using response surface methodology (RSM). The experimental conditions were established using a central composite design with three independent variables as follows: ratios of citron (40~60%), citric acid (0.34~0.94%), and hibiscus (0.3~0.7%). The results indicate that an increase in the citron ratio contributed to increased sweetness and as the concentration of citron and hibiscus increased, the brightness of the citron beverage decreased and the yellowness increased. The citron ratio showed a significant correlation with the ABTS radical scavenging capacity. Among the 15 experimental groups, 4 representative samples showing statistical significance were selected, and sensory tests were performed, in comparison with commercially available products. As a result of the sensory test, four beverages prepared with the selected recipes showed higher preference than commercial beverages, and optimal recipe conditions were 40% citron, 0.34% citric acid, and 0.5% hibiscus.
