Effects of addition of various additives, sucrose fatty acid ester 1170 (SE), carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and soy bean oil (SO) on textural characteristics for untreated and defatted corn and mung bean starch gels stored at room temperature for 24 hrs and 72 hrs were studied. In sensory and instrumental characteristics of starch gels with additives (0.5% for starch basis), the acceptability was highly correlated with cohesiveness and bend property of starch gels stored 24 hrs and springiness, cohesiveness, color, smoothness, bend property, hardness and clarity of starch gels stored 72 hrs. Regardless of adding additives, textural characteristics of defatted corn starch gels showed somewhat higher values than that of com starch gels. The acceptability of starch gels with additives was somewhat lowered in all the cases, which showed highly correlated in cohesiveness for 24 hrs and springiness for 72 hrs. Instrumental characteristics were similar to those of sensory evaluation, which showed no significant difference with additives.

This study was carried out to determine the effects of various starches (mungbean starch, cowpea starch and corn starch) on the quality characteristics of Omija jelly made of Omija extract. The viscosity of starch suspended in Omija extract and distilled water was measured by using a RVA(Rapid Visco Analyzer), and, color value, syneresis, texture(rupture test and TPA test) and sensory properties of Omija jelly and pure starch jelly were measured. Gelatinization temperature of each starch suspended in Omija extract was higher than that suspended in distilled water, whereas final viscosity of Omija jelly was decreased. Omija extract appeared to retard the gelatinization of starch and recrystallization of gelatinized starch. The viscosity of com starch was lowest among the three types of starch, suggesting thai higher concentration is needed in the use of com starch. The lightness(L) of corn starch gel was the highest among the gels. The syneresis of Omija jelly was lower than that of starch jelly, therefore, Omija extract seemed to be helpful on the stability of starch gel. Rupture properties of Omija jelly was lower than that of starch jelly, whereas the adhesiveness of omija jelly was greater. Omija jelly made of corn starch was less cohesive and more sticky than other gels, and its acceptability was very low. Sensory characteristics of the gel were relatively well correlated with the mechanical characteristics. Overall acceptability of Omija jelly was high in the concentration of 7, 8% of mungbean starch and 8, 9% of cowpea starch. Thus, the optimum concentration of starch for making Omija jelly using mungbean starch was 7, 8% and that using corn starch was 8, 9%.

A squid meat has not been utilized for gel products because of its lower gel forming ability. The objectives of this study were as followed; 1) the optimum heating condition on squid meat paste products and 2) the optimum added level for jelly strength of squid meat paste products. Optimum heating conditions of squid meat kamaboko were as followed; setting (pre-heating) at 15$^{\circ}C$ or 55$^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours and heating at 90$^{\circ}C$ for 60 minutes. Effect for jelly strength of starch additives wheat starch, potato starch and com starch were examined. The jelly strength of heat induced gels differed from the levels of additives. In case of adding starch, potato starch was resulted in the superior jelly strength than the other starchs, wheat starch and corn starch, at any levels. Optimum concentration was 10%(w/w) at every additives. Folding test value was B at added 10% and this value was mean good product. Data of jumbo and flying squid meat paste products added potato starch, corn starch and wheat starch of 10% were shown below, jelly strengths were 858${\pm}$34∼1020${\pm}$37gㆍcm and 966${\pm}$33∼l148${\pm}$45gㆍcm and moisture contents were 72.43∼73.04% and 71.61∼72.78%, respectively. To adding edible agar and sea tangle, showed the highest jelly strength (edible agar>sea tangle, flying squid>jumbo squid) at added 0.5%(w/w) concentration.

The primary alcohol groups of four kinds of polysaccharides (com starch, rice starch, sweet potato starch, and cellulose), with different structures and water solubilities, were oxidized to carboxyl groups using 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidine oxoammonium ion (TEMPO) at $25^{\circ}C$. The optimum pH, TEMPO content, and NaBr content for the TEMPO/hypobromite-catalyzed oxidation of the polysaccharides were $10.5{\sim}11.0$, 10 mmol/mol primary alcohol, and 0.49 mmol/mol primary alcohol, respectively. The oxidation degree for the primary alcohol group was more than 90% for all four kinds of the polysaccharides. The oxidation process greatly increased the water solubility of the polysaccharides. Water-insoluble polysaccharide such as cellulose became water-soluble to the extent of 8.42% (w/v). And also, the polysaccharides with very low water solubility (less than 0.10% (w/v)) such as com starch, rice starch, and sweet potato starch had high water solubility of approximately 45%(w/v). The gel-forming abilities with calcium ion were determined. The oxidized polysaccharides are new anionic polymers with unique structures that could have application as gums, gels, and films.
