This study was performed to investigate the quality characteristics of noodles made from four different potato varieties: Atlantic, Go-un, Sae-bong, Jin-sun, and wheat flour. Quality characteristics of five noodles were analyzed by general components analysis, cooking quality (rate of water absorption, cooking loss, and volume increase), and mechanical textural properties. Some variations existed in wheat- or potato-based noodles for the general components analysis, but no clear trend was observed. Higher values in the rates of water absorption, cooking loss, and volume increase were observed for the wheat flour noodle, while some variations were observed for potato noodles depending on the variety. The wheat flour noodles exhibited higher values of textural characteristics obtained from the texture profile analysis, except for adhesiveness. Higher gluten contents as well as lower ash contents in the wheat flour noodles compared to the potato noodles are thought to be the two key factors contributing to this finding.

We have examined the utility of alkaline ionic water for processing water In order to compare with piped tap water in cooking rice, making kimchi, making bean curd, raising bean sprouts and parboiling spinach. And we have estimated the quality of them. The result of the examination was as follow. A rice cooked with alkaline ionic water had pale yellow color, and had good quality in polish, viscocity, taste, odour and retrogradation as compared with a rice cooked of piped tap water. In the case of a water kimchi, refreshing taste and other kinds of taste were good. Unpleasant taste and smell have decreased. Fresh colour of a Chinese cabbage were maintained long because of the prevention of destruction of chlorophyll. In the case of bean sprouts, sprouting rate was promoted up to 2∼3% during the period of 2∼3 days as compared with that treated with piped tap water And the growth state was good and the contents of vitamin C were high as compared with those with piped tap water. In the case of parboiling of green spinach, the alkaline ionic water helped keeping the chlorophyll of spinach. In the case of bean curd, soft taste, polish, smell and total taste were good. The Utility value of alkaline ionic water for the processing of soft bean curd was recognized by making it soften.

The in vitro digestive properties of 6 domestic noodle products (spaghetti, somyeon, ramyeon, dangmyeon, naengmyeon, and jjolmyeon) were compared after cooking under the manufacture's recommended cooking conditions. The kinetic constant (k), representing the rate of hydrolysis at the initial digestion stage, was highest in the somyeon noodles (0.1151), followed by naengmyeon (0.0954), and was lowest in the spaghetti (0.0421). However, the concentration of starch ($C_{\infty}$) hydrolyzed over 2 hr was not different between the spaghetti (96.22) and the somyeon (96.40), indicating that different digestion behaviors occurred in each type of noodle, even though the amounts of digested starch were similar. The ramyeon, dangmyeon, and naengmyeon noodles showed relatively lower $C_{\infty}$ values than the spaghetti and the somyeon noodles. The spaghetti had the highest amount of slowly digestible starch (SDS, 43%) and the lowest glycemic index (GI, 87.8), whereas the somyeon had the lowest SDS value (9.6%) and the highest or (93.0). The digestibility differences among the noodles were attributed to differences in their flour compositions and manufacturing processes.

We investigated the quality characteristics of rice noodles supplemented with turmeric, purple sweet potato, or seaweed (Hizikia fusiforme). RVA (Rapid Visco Analyser), color, water activity, texture, and cooking properties were tested. Initial gelatinization temperature of noodles containing turmeric were the highest. Peak viscosity, holding strength, break down, final viscosity, and set back of noodles containing purple sweet potato were highest, indicating that the gelatinization state was more unstable and retrogradation would occur faster. The L value of the seaweed noodle was the lowest, while the a and b value of the turmeric noodles were $7.3{\pm}0.3$ and $40.2{\pm}1.3$ respectively, higher values than turmeric and seaweed noodles. Water activity of the seaweed noodle was 0.665, higher than turmeric and purple sweet potato noodles. Cooking properties (including weight, volume, and water absorption) and turbidity of seaweed noodles showed the highest growth rate. In terms of texture, the hardness was highest in purple sweet potato noodles, and the cohesiveness and gumminess was highest in seaweed noodles. The quality characteristics of rice noodles supplemented with turmeric, purple sweet potato, or seaweed showed that seaweed noodles were stable in gelatinization and cooking properties.

This study was carried out to compare the cooking and antioxidant characteristics of cooked rice added at various rate of glutinous rice addition and treated with two cooking methods. Cooked rice added with glutinous rice was cooked by general and high pressure cooking method with and without fermented alcohol. Pasting characteristics of cooked rice were decreased as increasing the amounts of glutinous rice. Water binding capacity and swelling power were significant decreased with the amounts of glutinous rice increasing, however water solubility indices were significant increased. Palatability characteristics of cooked rice added with glutinous rice showed similar results to cooked rice without glutinous rice. Total polyphenol contents of cooked rice added with glutinous rice and fermented alcohol were significantly distinct, but there was no significant difference. Total flavonoid contents were increased as increasing the amounts of glutinous rice. Total flavonoid contents by general cooking method of cooked rice added with 20% glutinous rice and fermented alcohol were $23.20{\pm}0.61{\mu}g\;CE/g$. DPPH radical scavenging activities added with and without glutinous rice were 2.97~5.19 and 3.19~5.45 mg TE/100 g, respectively. ABTS radical scavenging activities by high pressure cooking method of cooked rice added with 20% glutinous rice and fermented alcohol were $19.48{\pm}0.63mg\;TE/100g$. In this study, cooking and antioxidant characteristics of cooked rice added with glutinous rice were expected to be used as basic data on manufacturing processed products.

In order to develop functional hamburger steak patties, various concentrations of lotus root (Nelumbo nucifera) were incorporated into them. The quality characteristics of the hamburger patties prepared after the addition of 5, 10, 15, 20 or 25% (w/w) lotus root were investigated. The moisture contents of the groups with lotus root were significantly higher than that of the control group. The crude fat and crude protein contents of the control group were higher than those of the other groups. No significant difference in the crude ash content was observed among the groups. The cooking loss rate, rate of reduction in diameter, and reduction in thickness of the groups with lotus root were significantly lower than those of the control group. Accroding to the results, lotus root inhibit cooking loss and help to keep moisture after cooking process. No significant difference in the L value was observed among the groups. The a and b values of the groups with lotus root were significantly decreased compared to those of the control group. No significant difference in hardness was observed among the groups. it suggest lotus root didn't affect the texture of hamburger patties. In the quantitative descriptive analysis, no significant difference in the color and fresh odor was observed among the groups. The groups with lotus root were softer than the control group. The groups with 10 to 25 % of lotus root showed higher juiciness and a sweeter taste than the control group. The preference of appearance, texture, flavor and overall acceptability of the groups with 10 to 25% lotus root were higher than those of the other groups, including the control group. In conclusion, lotus root can increase the acceptability of hamburger patties and 10-25% would appear to be the proper amount of it to use.

Protein-energy malnutrition is regarded as one of the public health problems in developing countries as a result of poor feeding practices due to poverty. This study, therefore, aimed at evaluating nutritional quality of a potential weaning food formulated from locally available food materials. The cooking banana fruit(CB) and bambara groundnut seeds(BG) were purchased from local market in Akure, Ondo State, Nigeria. The CB and BG were processed into flours, mixed in ratios of 90:10, 80:20, 70:30 and 60:40 and subjected into proximate, sensory and biochemical analyses using standard procedures. Nutrend(a commercial formula) and ogi(corn gruel, a traditional weaning food) were used as control. The nutritient composition(g/100 g) of the food samples were ranged as follows: moisture 2.94-6.94, protein 7.02-16.0, ash 1.76-2.99, fat 0.76-8.45, fibre 1.52-3.75, carbohydrate 63.84-88.43 and energy 1569.8-1665.7 kcal. The biological value(BV), net protein retention(NPR), protein efficiency ratio(PER) and feed efficiency ratio(FER) of the experimental food samples were significantly(p<0.05) lower than nutrend, but higher than ogi. The haematological variables of rats fed with formulated food samples, commercial formula(nutrend) and traditional weaning food(ogi) were not significantly(p>0.05) influenced by the dietary treatment. However, the values obtained for red blood cell(RBC), white blood cell(WBC), pack cell volume(PCV) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR) were higher in the experimental food samples than the commercial food. The growth rate of animals fed with experimental food samples were lower than those fed with the nutrend, but higher than those fed with ogi. In conclusion, the nutritional quality of CB and fermented BG mix of 60:40 ratio was better than ogi; and comparable to the nutrend. This implies that it can be used to replace low quality traditional weaning food and the expensive commercial weaning formula.

Cooking oil and yolk mixture (COY) was applied to control the powdery mildew of sweet persimmon at the research field of Gyeongsangnam-do Agricultural Research and Extension Services from 2010 to 2011. COY was sprayed three times with 10 days interval on foliar parts of sweet persimmon and the disease development was monitored after 5 days of final spray. Diseased leaf area rate was 13.4% and the control efficacy of COY against powdery mildew was 80.5%. Disease rate was 68.6% on negative control. Using scanning electron microscope (SEM), the morphological changes of the powdery mildew fungus on the leaf surface were observed. On COY-treated leaves, fungal mycellia were morphologically characterized by a loss in cell volume, shriveling, plasma membrane rupture, and subsequent loss of intracellular contents. It may due to the destruction of fungal cell wall or membrane structure.
