This study was carried out to investigate the possible for utilization of garbage in pig feed by investigating the functional characteristics of pork from pigs fed dried citrus byproduct. The samples consisted of the pork loin from pigs not fed with dried citrus pulp (DCP-0) and fed with 6% and 10% dried citrus pulp during growing and fattening period (DCP-1) there is no respective comparison here The pH, VBN content, TBARS value, bacterial counts, surface color, water holding capacity, loss degree and rheological properties of the samples were determined by physicochemical properties, and the sensory scores were evaluated. The pH, VBN content, surface color, water holding capacity and loss degree were not different between the samples, but the TBARS value and bacterial counts of DCP-1 were significantly lower than those of the DCP-0 (p<0.05). The cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, shear forte value, taste, flavor, tenderness, juiciness and palatability were not different between the samples, but the hardness of DCP-0 was higher than that of the DCP-1 and the springiness of DCP-1 was higher than that of the DCP-0 (p<0.05).

Citrus peel extract was prepared using 70％ ethanol solution by two extraction conditions (20$^{\circ}C$ for 72 hours and 85$^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours). The effect of gamma-irradiation on the changes of physiological activity also investigated at 0, 5, 10 and 20 kGy of absorbed doses. Color characteristics, DPPH radical scavenging, tyrosinase inhibition and nitrite scavenging activities of the extracts were measured at 41$^{\circ}C$ for 30 days. Color values were different by extraction methods at the initial stage, which heat-extracted sample had lower L$\^$＊/ - but higher a$\^$＊/ - and b$\^$＊/ -values than those extracted at room temperature. Irradiation changed color of the extract lighter by increasing Hunter color L$\^$＊/ - and a$\^$＊/ -values. DPPH radical scavenging, tyrosinase inhibition and nitrite scavenging activities were not affected by either extraction methods or irradiation but significantly reduced by storage time. Therefore, when the cost-effective extraction methods is selected, the citrus peel extracts, which is a major byproduct in citrus processing, could be used as a functional material in various applications.

In this study, the effects of feeding citrus byproducts on nutritional properties of Korean native chicken eggs were investigated. Two samples of Korean native chicken eggs were used for this study: T0 (Eggs of chickens that were not fed with citrus byproducts until they became 30 weeks old) and T1 (Eggs of chickens that were fed with 4% citrus byproducts when they were between 17 and 30 weeks old). There was nostatistically meaningful difference between T0 and T1 in terms of various properties, such as general components of egg albumen and yolk, total structural amino acid, and total free amino acid. Also, no significant difference was noticed between T0 and T1 in terms of various components of egg yolk, such as amount of mineral, vitamin, and xanthophyll, which showed that those components are not affected by citrus byproducts. However, the amount of cholesterol of egg yolk for T1 was 1,168 mg/100 g, which was significantly lower than that for T0 which was 1,207 mg/100 g (p<0.05). The amount of L-glutamic acid, one of the free amino acids, of the egg albumen was 39.22 and 58.54 ppm for T0 and T1, respectively. The results of this study show that citrus byproducts can be used for the feed for Korean native chicken by adding them to general feed.

In this study, the effects of feeding citrus byproducts on nutritional components of Korean native chickens were investigated. Two samples of Korean native chickens were used for this study: T0 (chickens fed with only feed for laying hen until they became 39 weeks old, not with citrus byproducts) and T1 (chickens fed with citrus byproducts). The feed for T1 was the same as T0 for the first 16 weeks, and then was made by adding 4% of citrus byproducts to the feed for T0 between $17{\sim}39$ weeks. The chicken used for the experiment was obtained by chilling them for 2 days after slaughter. There was no significant difference between T0 and T1 regardless of feeding citrus byproducts, in terms of their breast/thigh's calorie, contents of moisture, protein, fat and ash, total structural amino acid, total free amino acid and composition of saturated/unsaturated fatty acids. The breast's cholesterol amount of T0 and T1 were 48.4 mg/100 g and 47.6 mg/100 g, respectively, while that of thigh for T0 and T1 were 75.7 mg/100 g and 72.8 mg/100 g, respectively, which implies that T1 showed lower amount of cholesterol than T0. T1 showed significantly higher amount of phosphorus, potassium, magnesium and vitamin B2 for thigh than T0 (p<0.05).

This study examined the effects of dietary supplementation with citrus by-product (CBP) on the growth, feed utilization, innate immunity, and histology of the gills and intestine of juvenile olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus during low water temperature season. A vitamin C-free basal diet was regarded as a control and five other diets were formulated that contained 30 and 300 mg of L-ascorbyl-2-polyphosphate (LAPP) or CBP as vitamin C equivalents/kg diet, or the antibiotic oxytetracycline (OTC) (designated as control, LAPP30, LAPP300, CBP30, CBP300, and OTC, respectively). Olive flounder (initial body weight $44.6{\pm}0.32g$) were fed the six experimental diets to apparent satiation for 9 weeks. Growth and feed utilization were significantly higher in CBP30 than in the control and LAPP groups. The lysozyme activity was significantly higher in CBP30 than in LAPP300. Enterocyte height was significantly higher in CBP30 than in the control. The number of goblet cells was increased significantly with LAPP30, LAPP300, and CBP30. These results demonstrate that CBP can reduce or replace vitamin C and antibiotic in the diet of olive flounder during the low-water-temperature season. The optimal CBP supplementation level seems to be approximately 1%, which is equivalent to 30 ppm vitamin C/kg in the fish diet.

The purpose of this research is to study the effects of feeding dietary citrus byproducts TMR (total mixed ration) on physicochemical properties and sensory characteristics of Korean native beef loin (KNBL). The samples for experiment consist of the KNBL not fed with citrus byproducts (TMR-0) and the KNBL fed with citrus byproducts during fattening period (TMR-1). The control (TMR-0) KNBL was fed by general practical feeding (roughages and concentrates were fed separately), while the TMR-1 KNBL was fed by the same as TMR-0 until 17 months yearling but was fed by citrus byproducts feeding for 10 months after that. The $L^*(lightness),\;a^*(redness)\;and\;b^*(yellowness)$ value were not significantly different between TMR-0 and TMR-1. The pH of TMR-1 was lower than that of TMR-0 (p<0.05), the VBN content, TBARS value and EDA were not significantly different between TMR-0 and TMR-1. The water holding capacity, frozen loss and cooking loss were not significantly different between TMR-0 and TMR-1, but thawing loss of TMR-0 was higher than that of TMR-1 (p<0.05). The hardness of TMR-0 was higher than that of TMR-1, and the springiness of TMR-1 was higher than that of TMR-0 (p<0.05), but the cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness and shear force were not significantly different between TMR-0 and TMR-1. The pH and VBN content during storage were not significantly different between TMR-0 and TMR-1, but the TBARS value of TMR-1 stored during 4 weeks was lower than that of TMR-0 (p<0.05). In case of sensory score, the color and aroma of raw meat, and the taste, juiciness and palatability of cooked meat were not significantly different between TMR-0 and TMR-1. But the flavor and tenderness of TMR-1 were superior than those of TMR-0 (p<0.05)

The amount and characteristics of pectin in the albedo and flavedo layers of the citrus peels, and those of the pulp were investigated. Alcohol insoluble solid(AIS) content was the highest in albedo layer(18.1%), and the lowest in pulp(5.7%). The pulp and the albedo layer showed a potential pectin sources as containing pectins of 40.5% and 35.2% of the total polysaccharides of the pulp and the albedo layer, respectively. Total pectin contents were about 30% of the AIS and showed comparatively constant values among the byproducts. Hydrochloric acid soluble pectin contents were the hightest in the flavedo layer, 14.0%, and the lowest in the pulp, 4.4%. Over 90% of the total pectin could be extracted after 60min with 0.05N HCI at $85^{\circ}C.$ Microwave treatment reduced the extraction time significantly ; a comparable extraction yield was acquired after 10min with microwave treatment. The degree of esterification of the extracted pectin also increased with microwave treatment. Neutral sugars in the hydrolysate of the pectin were rhamnose, arabinose, galactose, glucose and xylose. No differences in molecular weight distribution of the pectin were found between the albedo and flavedo layers. Pectin of the pulp showed different molecular weight distribution from that of the peels.
