In this study, we examined the quality characteristics of oriental melon concentrate according to its content in the production of Makgeolli using uncooked rice. The results show that when more oriental melon concentrate was added to the Makgeolli and as the fermentation progressed, the sugar content of the Makgeolli increased. A slight increase was noted in all samples. The total acidity from the second day of fermentation did not show a significant difference according to the addition of 0.77~0.85% oriental melon concentrate. The pH of Makgeolli was slightly higher. The addition of more oriental melon concentrate after its decrease on the first day showed no significant difference in the pH. Reducing sugars in the Makgeolli slightly increase on the second day, after it rapidly decreased on the first day. The alcohol content increased as the fermentation progressed, and the Makgeolli with 9% (v/w) oriental melon concentrate added on the fourth day of its fermentation showed the highest alcohol content of 11.15%. Thus, it verified that as more oriental melon concentrate is added, the higher the alcohol content becomes. The acetaldehyde content of the alcoholic ingredients was low. The addition of and the increase in the oriental melon concentrate and the methanol were highest in the Makgeolli when 6% (v/w) oriental melon concentrate(199.08 ppm) was added. For the sensory characteristics, the Makgeolli with 6% (v/w) oriental melon concentrate showed the highest color, odor, taste and overall values of 3.60, 3.60, 2.80 and 3.60, respectively; but in general, it showed low values. The result showed that during the production of Makgeolli, oriental melon concentrate can be added, but a study on the use of a sweetener to improve the quality of the Makgeolli is desirable.

The current study was conducted to investigate the effect of macsumsuk and herb resources on the performances and meat quality of broiler chickens. Six hundreds (600) broiler chickens were randomly allocated into four groups (4 groups${\times}$50 chickens/group${\times}$3 replica), Control, Treatment 1 (T1; 0.3% macsumsuk), Treatment 2 (T2; 0.3% herb resources), and Treatment 3 (T3; 0.3% macsumsuk + 0.3% herb resources) and fed for 5 wk. T2 group showed higher total body weight gain and average daily gain of 1,812.5 g and 51.79 g, respectively, than the other groups. Control group showed the highest (p<0.05) mortality (8%) and total blood cholesterol (111.8 mg/dL) among experimental groups. T3 group (6.71 mg/dL) showed the highest (p<0.05) while control group (4.50 mg/dL) showed the lowest (p<0.05) in blood IgG levels. Cooking loss was 17.08, 16.14, 16.55, and 15.25%, shear force value was 1.91, 1.52, 1.55, and 1.47 $kg/cm^2$, and water holding capacity (WHC) was 54.40, 55.97, 56.01, and 55.70% for Control, T1, T2, and T3, respectively. Cholesterol contents in breast meat of Control (88.91 mg/100 g) chickens showed the highest (p<0.05) levels comparing to either T1 (83.59 mg/dL), T2 (82.41 mg/dL), or T3 (80.81 mg/dL) chickens. In conclusion, the current study implies that feeding macsumsuk and herb resources to broiler chickens could decrease cholesterol contents in breast meat.

Water extracts of Jehotang were evaluated for their growth-promoting effects on Bifidobacterium longum, Lactobacillus sp., L. acidophilus, and Clostridium perfringens. Addition of Jehotang water extract to modified EG media at 0.1 mg/mL increased growths of B. longum, Lactobacillus sp., and L. acidophilus, with 1.8-fold increase in growth of L. acidophilus compared to that of control. Studies on these strains by agar diffusion method showed Lactobacillus sp. and L. acidophilus were activated by addition of Jehotang extract at 10 mg/disc. Proliferation responses of mice splenocytes and Peyer's patch cells to ConA by LPS-stimulation at 500 mg/kg B.W./day Jehotang extract were investigated in vitro. Upon treatment of 1 mg/mL Jehotang water extract to mice, proliferations of splenocytes and Peyer's patch cells increased 1.4- and 1.6-fold compared to control, respectively. In mice administered Jehotang extract, production of intestinal secretory IgA (sIgA) increased 2.4-fold compared to control. These results indicate water extract of Jehotang stimulated intestinal immune system of mice. In mice treated with Jehotang extract, production of lymphocytes was 4% lower, whereas those of granulocytes and platelets were 4% and slightly higher than control, respectively.

The purpose of this study is to validate the failure attribution factors affecting emotional changes after a failed service by local restaurant users, and the relapse effects of the perceived failure of a customer's brand relationship. In this study, the implications of this study can be divided into the null theory and the homogenous theory, in which the study of the relationship between individual belief that influences the null theory and the post-gender emotional response is minimal. The independence of the crash response (angerous VS compassion) has been equally validated as building a belief-gathering-emotion three-step model. First, emotional BRQ (intimate and love) has a reduction effect on controllable geeks, and behavioral BRQ (relative existence) has an extended effect on controllable geeks. From a management perspective, restaurant managers should be less aware of the repeatability of a customer's service failure and call for customer sympathy. Integratedly, restaurant managers must control the customer's perception of service failure and restore the impact of the customer's BRQ on emotional reactions. A variety of service recovery measures should be established and the cerumen should be controlled. In addition, since BRQs have different effects on anger and sympathy (extended VS), different service failure recovery plans should be presented depending on the characteristics of the customer BRQ. For example, measures such as monetary compensation or fair dealing, emotional distribution to close and loving customers, and persuasion of reciprocal benefits to interdependent customers should be developed according to circumstances. This study explored the effectiveness of the geeks after a service failure and has limitations that do not take into account the various regulatory factors in the BRQ-return-Empression process. Thus, in further studies, the effects of adjusting service failure strength should be considered and a more complete model should be built.

Some quality characteristics of tofu prepared with cuttlefish ink were investigated to study the effects of various of coagulants. Each concentration of coagulant was determined as 0.2% of GDL, 0.3# of $MgCl_2$, 1%^ of $CaCl_2$, 1.5% of $CaSO_4$ and 0.6% D-gluconic acid calcium by pre-experiment. Also, the optimum concentration of added cuttlefish ink was chosen as 3%(diluted in twenty times). The yield of inky tofu prepared with GDL as coagulant was the highest. According to prepared with $MgCl_2$ was the highest. The result of microstructure was examined by SEM, the particles of inky tofu coagulated with GDL and D-gluconic acid calcium were small and uniformity. In overall acceptability of sensory properties, inky tofu coagulated with GDL was the highest in score. In the color of inky tofu, L value and a value were the highest coagulated with GDL, but that coagulated with $CaCl_2$ had the highest b value. In the texture properties of inky tofu, hardness, gumminess and brittleness were the highest coagulated with D-gluconic acid calcium. A positive correlation was observed between the pH of tofu whey and acidity. Sensory properties of roasted nutty flavor, hardness, cohesiveness and springiness were positively correlated with the acceptability.

The principal objective of this study was to conduct a physiological evaluation of Korea Ginseng, Deoduk and Doragi pickles. Prior to the processing of the 3 kinds of pickles, total phenolic acid contents, lecithin oxidation inhibitory effect, SOD -linked activity and hydroxyl radical scavenging activity of Korea Ginseng, Deoduk and Doragi water extracts were assessed. After the processing of 3 kinds of pickles, we conduct a sensory evaluation and color values assessment. The total phenolic acid contents of Korea Ginseng, Deoduk and Doragi water extracts were $1.66{\sim}1.70mg/m{\ell}$, levels which were similar to that of tocopherol($1.81mg/m{\ell}$) but significantly lower than that of BHT($4.06mg/m{\ell}$)(p<0.05). The lecithin oxidation inhibitory effects of the Ginseng extract(98.86%) were similar to those of BHT(98.90%), but were significantly higher than those of Deoduk(35.70%), Doragi(78.07%) and tocopherol(65.91%). SOD-linked activity of Korea Ginseng water extract (42.58%) was similar to those of BHT(47.86%) and tocopherol(50.47%), but significantly higher than those of Deoduk (17.98%) and Doragi(20.75%). The hydroxyl radical scavenging activity of the Ginseng water extract(87.85%) was similar to that of BHT(8.58%), but significantly higher than that of Deoduk(79.51%), Doragi(77.62%) and tocopherol(78.95%). In the results of our sensory evaluations of the 3 kinds of pickles, the Ginseng pickle evidenced significantly lower acceptance scores in taste, color, flavor, texture, and overall quality. The luminance of the Ginseng pickle was significantly higher than the Deoduk pickles, the value of the Doragi pickle was significantly higher than those of the Ginseng and Deoduk pickles, and the b value of the Deoduk pickle was significantly higher than that of the Ginseng pickle.

This study was performed to elucidate the fermentation and sensory characteristics of Korean traditional rice wine, makgeolli, made from GABA rice, which has a high content of GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid). GABA rice is a brown rice that is not easily fermented by general makgeolli manufacturing methods. Thus, the Geupchungju method, which is a Korean traditional manufacturing method for makgeolli using a fermentation starter and additional malt, was considered for making makgeolli from GABA rice. We confirmed that Geupchungju method showed a high saccharification and stable alcohol fermentation ability in the early stages of fermentation. However, malt addition more than 2% resulted in a lower score in the sensory evaluation of the final product. It was also confirmed that GABA content of GABA makgeolli was higher than that of commercial makgeolli by 2.3-fold. Our result provides useful information toward improving quality of brown rice makgeolli.

The textural properties of breads containing midified starches such as pregelatinized waxy corn starch, acetylated potato starch and hydroxypropylated tapioca starch, were investigated to determine the optimum addition level of modified starches. Effects of modified starches on dough properties were investigated through a farinogram and amylogram based on the different additional levels of modified starches (3%, 6%, 9%, 12% and 15% of flour content). Moisture contents and firmness values were measured to investigate the degree of retrogradation at 0 h, 36 h and 72 h after production. The levels of moisture contents were highest upon addition of pregelatinized waxy corn starch followed by acetylated potato starch and lowest upon addition of hydroxypropylated tapioca starch. Overall, higher moisture contents resulted in lower firmness levels. The preference scores by type of modified starch were highest upon addition of 9% hydroxypropylated tapioca starch, 3% pregelatinized waxy corn starch, and 6% acetylated potato starch, respectively. Preference scores were significantly correlated with textural properties such as volume, absorption, stability and weakness (p<0.01).

This study showed the optimum conditions for producing rice extrudate added with the sea tangle powder, and presented the effects of moisture content, barrel temperature and the amount of sea tangle powder. From the results, the more the amount of sea tangle powder was added, the less the water absorption ratio was showed, while the more the texture became smooth, the more the expansion ratio increased. From the sensory evaluation, the best preference was obtained when the moisture content was $18\%$, and the barrel temperature was at $100^{\circ}C$. Between control and $10\%$ sea tangle, there was no significant difference in all observed parameters. But if more than $20\%$ sea tangle was added, low sensory evaluation scores were obtained due to the peculiar smell from sea tangle. From these results, addition of sea tangle below $10\%$(w/w) did not affect the quality of products.

Radicchio (Cichorium intybus L.) is widely known to have antioxidant, anti-cancer, and digestion-promoting effects. Antioxidant activity and sensory characteristics of sponge cakes made with radicchio powder were investigated in this study. Sponge cakes were made with freeze-dried radicchio powder added to the flour at concentrations of 1, 3, 5, and 7%. As the amount of radicchio powder increased, the specific gravity of radicchio-containing sponge cakes significantly increased. pH value did not significantly differ between groups. Moisture content decreased from 30.72% (control) to 28.68% (7% radicchio) and loss of mass during baking increased from 7.11% (control) to 9.36% (7% radicchio). L (brightness) and b (yellowness) of sponge cakes decreased while redness increased. Hardness and chewiness decreased as concentration of radicchio powder increased. Springiness and cohesiveness did not significantly differ between any of the groups. Total polyphenol contents ranged from 0.12 to 0.31 mg GAE/g. DPPH scavenging activity significantly increased as the amount of radicchio powder increased. Overall acceptability of sensory experience measured on a 7-point scale was highest in the 3% radicchio cakes (5.35). In conclusion, the addition of 3% radicchio powder improves the sensory qualities of radicchio sponge cakes.
