This study was conducted to evaluate quality characteristics of noodles when different concentrations of chlorella extract powder were added to the wheat flour. The characteristics of noodle including cooking properties, color, mechanical texture properties, and sensory properties were determined. The noodles containing chlorella extract powder exhibited higher values in cooked weight, volume, moisture absorption, and cooking loss. When the amount of chlorella extract powder increased, the Hunter L(lightness) value, a(redness) value of cooked noodles decreased but b(yellowness) value increased. From the textural properties measured by texture analyzer, the noodles with chlorella extract powder were significantly lower in hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess, and chewiness than those of 100％ wheat noodle. The results of sensory evaluation of cooked noodles containing chlorella extract powder indicated that the cooked noodle with 1.5％ chlorella extract powder showed the highest value. Based on cooking properties and sensory evaluation, chlorella extract powder up to 1.5％ could be substituted for wheat flour to improve the noodle quality.

Mulberry leaves noodles were prepared with composite flour by the addition of various levels of mulberry leaves powder of 100 mesh particle site. The characteristics of cooked noodle including color, texture, cooking properties were measured, and sensory evaluation was performed. The L and a values of cooked noodle decreased as more wheat flour was substiruted with mulberry leaves powder. And the b value of noodle containing mulberry leaves powder was higher than control, but b value did not increase as the ratio of powder increased. The increase in cooking weight and volume was greater with cooked noodles of higher content of mulberry leaves powder. The turbidity of soup and eluted solid content increased as the content of powder increased, indicating higher cooking loss. There was not much difference in hardness among cooked noodles, but cohesiveness and springiness decreased as the ratio of mulberry leaves powder increased, while adhesiveness increased. The results of sensory evaluation showed that cooked noodles containing 4% and 6% mulberry leaves powder were acceptable as much as wheat four noodle in terms of color, texture, taste and flavor. But the overall acceptability of mulberry leaves noodle was lower than wheat now noodle.

This paper is to investigate an effect of waste cooking oil(WCO) on the engineering properties and durability of high volume admixture concrete. Fly ash with 30% and blast furnace slag with 60% were incorporated in OPC to fabricate high volume admixture concrete with 0.5 of W/B. Emulsified refining cooking oil(ERCO) was made by mixing WCO and emulsifying agent to improve fluidity. ERCO was replaced by cement from 0.25 to 1.0%. As results, the increase of ERCO resulted in decrease of slump and air contents. For compressive strength, the use of ERCO led to decrease the compressive strength at 28 days, while it had similar strength or much higher strength than plain concrete at 180 days. Resistance to carbonation and chloride penetration was improved with the increase of ERCO contents due to decreased pore distribution by saponification between ERCO and concrete, while freeze-thaw resistance was degraded due to air loss.

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of different reheating methods on the quality characteristics of precooked ground pork patties with different combinations of salt (1, 2%) and phosphate (0, 0.3%). The cooking and reheating methods used were the electric grill and the microwave oven. The cooking method and the addition of phosphate had detectable effects on the quality characteristics of ground pork patties. The reheating rate by microwave oven was faster than by electric grill, and decreased with increases in salt and the addition of phosphate. Cooking loss and reduction in patty diameter after reheating by microwave oven were higher than by electric grill, and these values decreased with increasing of salt/phosphate levels. The pH of patties with added phosphate was significantly higher than patties without phosphate, and no significant difference in pH was observed among patties reheated by each method. The patties reheated by electric grill had higher moisture contents than those reheated by electric grill, and the addition of phosphate resulted in higher moisture contents. The hardness of patties reheated by electric grill was lower than patties reheated by microwave oven, and the addition of phosphate increased the hardness with both reheating methods.

We investigated Cissus quadrangularis L. powder (C) use as a natural additive to Tteokgalbi, a traditional Korean meat-based dish. Five distinct Tteokgalbi samples were treated: one without any additives (negative control, NC), one with 1.00% C (C1), 2.00% C (C2), 4.00% C (C3), and 0.10% ascorbic acid (positive control, PC). C addition resulted in changes in composition, quality, and sensory attributes. Moisture content decreased with higher C levels; crude protein varied among the groups, with C1 having the highest crude protein levels and C3 the lowest. Crude fat decreased with increasing C concentration, whereas the carbohydrate content increased. The water-holding capacity notably decreased in the C3 group, resulting in increased cooking loss with higher C concentrations. C treatment altered color and texture, reducing CIE L^* and increasing CIE a^* before cooking and increasing CIE L^* and CIE a^* after cooking. CIE b^* decreased before cooking but increased thereafter. C-treated Tteokgalbi was less cohesive, chewy, and brittle compared to the NC. The C treatment increased the total phenolic and flavonoid contents and enhanced radical scavenging capacities. It also affects storage characteristics, lowers pH, and increases 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substances values. The microbial counts were lower in C2 and C3 after 11 days. These findings suggest the potential use of C as a natural meat additive.

The fluorescent proteins are generally denatured by heat treatment and thus lose their color. The normal reeling method includes processing by drying and cooking the cocoons near $100^{\circ}C$ before reeling. Therefore, the usual processing method cannot be used for making colored fluorescent silks. To develop a method that is applicable to producing transgenic silk without color loss, we develop reeling methods adequate for a recombinant fluorescence cocoons. It was found that the fluorescence cocoons keep their native color when dried at temperatures lower than $60^{\circ}C$ for 15 h. Also, a new cooking method to soften the fluorescent cocoons was developed: the cocoons were soaked in a solution of 0.2% sodium carbonate ($Na_2CO_3$)/0.1% nonionic surfactant (Triton X100) at $60^{\circ}C$ and then placed under vacuum. The repeated vacuum treatments enabled complete penetration of the solution into the cocoons, and the cocoons were thus homogenously softened and ready for reeling. In this state, the cooked cocoons can be reeled by an automated reeling machine. Our results suggest that drying and cooking of the cocoons at low temperature enables the subsequent reeling of the colored fluorescent silks by an automatic reeling machine without color loss and can produce silks that can be used for making higher value-added silk materials.

Physicochemical properties of 4 kinds of domestic and 7 kinds of foreign starch vermicelli (1 from Chinese, 6 from Japan) were determined. Peak temperature of starch vermicelli measured by DSC were $42{\sim}48^{\circ}C$ which were much lower than gelatinization temperatures of their raw material starches. X-ray diffraction peaks of starch vermicelli were not sharp compared with those of raw material starches which indicated that starches were gelatinized by heating and retrograded by cooling and freezing during production of starch vermicelli. Hardness and compression slope of sweet potato starch vermicelli measured by rheometer were respectively $9,500{\sim}11,000\;g/cm^2$ and $18,000{\sim}26,000\;g/cm^2$ which were twice higher than those of corn starch vermicelli. Cooking loss of corn starch vermicelli, which was 19.8%, was higher than that of sweet potato starch vermicelli, $4.2{\sim}6.6%$ and mung bean starch vermicelli, 7.7%. In changes of thickness of starch vermicelli during cooking i.e swelling ratio, sweet potato starch vermicelli had $58{\sim}69%$ of swelling ratio, which was higher than that of corn starch vermicelli, 50%. Corn starch vermicelli, which was relatively less elastic and easily broken, was shown to be inferior to that of sweet potato starch vermicelli in overall quality.

This study focuses on the use of rice in the production of gluten-free rice udon (GFU) through an optimized mixing ratio, using the Box-Behnken response surface methodology (RSM). Different additional levels of rice flour (A, 40-60 g), acetylated distarch adipate (B, 10-20 g), and trehalose (C, 0-3 g) were used as variables, while water absorption level, volume, cooking loss, solid yield, lightness, texture properties, proximate compositions of GFU and turbidity of cooking water were set as responses in the RSM design model. The optimum mixing ratio for the preparation of gluten-free rice udon was obtained for 60.00 g of rice flour, 18.81 g of acetylated distarch adipate without the addition of trehalose. The response values of the optimized samples were water absorption (60.94%), volume (34.94%), turbidity of the cooking water (0.37), cooking loss (4.77%), solid yield (1.55 g), lightness value (70.04), hardness (2.53 N), springiness (0.18), gumminess (10.45 N), chewiness (1.83 N), and cohesiveness (2.89). This study has shown that rice flour can replace wheat flour to manufacture udon at an optimized mixing ratio successfully derived by statistical estimation method.

This study investigated the quality change of strip loin from hanwoo with quality grade 2 produced by dry aging, and compared the quality of dry-aged strip loin with that of strip loin from hanwoo with quality grade $1^+$. Hanwoo strip loins with quality grade $1^+$ (SL1) and 2 (SL2) after a day of slaughter and dry-aged strip loin (DSL2) aged for 21 days at $2^{\circ}C$ with 85% humidity were obtained from local markets. The proximate composition, pH, cooking loss, lipid oxidation, instrumental color (CIE $L^*$, $a^*$ and $b^*$ value) and sensory properties of the strip loins were measured. DSL2 contained low moisture and high protein contents compared with SL2, and low fat, high protein, and high ash contents compared with SL1 (p<0.05). The pH and cooking loss were higher and lower, respectively, in DSL2 compared to SL2 (p<0.05). SL1 had a higher pH than DSL2 (p<0.05). However, the cooking loss was not different between SL1 and DSL2. The TBARS value was the highest in DSL2 and the lowest in SL2 (p<0.05). DSL2 had higher $L^*$ and $b^*$ value compared with SL2 (p<0.05). There were no significant differences of $L^*$, $a^*$ and $b^*$ values between DSL2 and SL1. Sensory properties such as the color, flavor, taste, texture, and acceptability of DSL2 were higher than those of SL2 (p<0.05). There was no significant different in all sensory properties between DSL2 and SL1. According to the results, dry aging can improve the nutritional and sensorial quality of strip loin with quality grade 2 to quality comparable to quality grade $1^+$.

This study was to investigated the effects of adding of medicinal herbal (cinnamon, licorice and Bokbunja) to ground beef during storage by examining surface color, water holding capacity, cooking loss, increased rate of thickness, decreased rate of diameter, pH, VBN (volatile basic nitrogen) content and TBARS (2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substances) values of the beef under cold ($4{\pm}1$) storage conditions for 9 days. Four types of ground beef were prepared by adding the follow: 10% water (control), 10% cinnamon extracts (T-1), 10% licorice extracts (T-2), and 10% Bokbunja extracts (T-3). The $L^*$ (Lightness) and $a^*$ (Redness) values of the beef significantly decreased (p<0.05) whereas no significant changes were shown in the $b^*$ (Yellowness) value during storage, and which were not influenced by the additions of herbal extracts. Water holding capacity was significantly increased during cold storage (p<0.05), and was not influenced by the addition of the extracts. The cooking loss of the control, T-2 and T-3 were significantly decreased during cold storage (p<0.05), and T-1 had no significant changes in cooking loss. There were no significant changes in the thickness and diameter during cold storage, and which were not influenced by the addition of the extracts. The pH of the control decreased until 6 days of storage, but increased at 9 days, and the pH levels of T-1, T-2 and T-3 decreased during cold storage. VBN content was increased during cold storage and the VBN contents of the samples containing herbal extracts were lower than that of the control. In addition, the TBARS values of the ground beef containing the extracts were lower than that of the control.
