This study was carried out to investigate the optimum conditions for making “sponge cake” with addition of ingredient, laver powder, and the quality characteristics of a new sponge cake. The moisture contents of sponge cake with 2, 4, 6% laver powder did not change but with 8 and 10%, the moisture contents increased to 28.89% and 30.69%, respectively. While specific gravity increased to 0.674 (control 0.493) when 10% laver powder was added, but volume was decreased. Most abundant mineral was Ca, followed by Na, Fe, Mn, Cu and Zn. The crust color degree of sponge cake with laver powder showed low marks on L, a, b. The crumb color degree showed low marks on L, b while “a” degree redness indicated highest marks with 4% laver powder. When it was seen under the microscope, the air cell numbers were decreased but the cell size became bigger. More free amino acid was contained when the laver powder was added. L-glutamic acid, L-alanine, L-aspartic acid and L-leucine were the major free amino acids. Hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness and resilience degree of sponge cake with addition of laver power were higher than those of control. The sensory evaluation indicated that addition of 2% laver powder enhanced most mouth feeling, appearance, hardness, moistness, flavor and overall acceptability.

The study investigated the quality of pound cake prepared with various concentrations of cherry powder (obtained from ground fruit of Prunus serrulata L. var. spontanea Max. wils.). Pound cake was evaluated for their sensory property and physical quality stored for 10 days at $25^{\circ}C$. The pH of the batter decreased with rising cherry powder concentration. The specific loaf volume and height decreased (from 2.95 to $2.60\;cm^3/g$) with increasing in cherry powder. The baking loss rate of the pound cake tended to increased by $11.47{\sim}12.67%$, but with no significant differences. The lightness, redness, and yellowness values were significantly decreased with increases in cherry powder except for redness of pound cake crumb. As the concentration of cherry powder increased, the mechanical characteristics of the pound cake did not differ significantly. The hardness tended to increase, while adhesiveness and springiness decreased with increases in powder. The retrogradation degree of pound cake prepared with cherry powder was higher than the control but there were no significant differences. For the antioxidative activity measured by DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity, pound cake prepared with 10% and 15% added cherry powder showed high antioxidant activities. The pound cakes containing 10 and 15% cherry powder had acceptable sensory properties, such as flavor, taste, softness, moisture, and overall acceptability. The results exhibited that adding the cherry powder into the pound cake increased antioxidant activity with the highest quality improvement obtained by incorporating 10% (w/w) of cherry powder into the pound cake formula.

UV irradiation causes a variety of biologic effects on the skin. These effects can be devided to acute reactuons and chronic reacxtions by duration of UV irradiation. Acute reactions are erythema reaction, pigment reactions and changes in epidermal thickness. Among them erythema reaction is most common and conspicuous acute effects of the skin. Upon exposure to sun or artificial UV soures, a faint redness response of skin may begin. Larger exposure causes sunburn reaction which is exaggerated erythema reactionassociated with pain, swelling, vesicle and dulla. Extent and time course of erythema reaction depend upon several factors including wavelength and dose of UVR, skin conditions likeas skin type, site, color, temperature, humidity and environmental factors. Evaluation of erythema erythema induced by UV irradiation is difficult to quantify. Degree of redness of skin are usually estimated by subjective visual evaluation. The lowest exposure dose required to protuce erythema is called minimal erythema dose (mod). Repeated exposures of UVR result in photaging skin. In this condition we can see wrinkling, skin atrophy, dilated blood vessels and keratoses. In sensitive persons photocarcinogenesis is can Be developed on exposed area of skin. Recently skin canser is increasing now in our country. An effective public education and photopreventive method must be developed.

The quality of fresh jujube (Zizyphus jujuba) fruit rapidly declines in the postharvest stage and thus the effective storage conditions for agricultural warehouses were investigated in this study. Fresh jujubes (~10 kg) were stored using five different storage methods: plastic box without further packaging as a control (C-PL), plastic box with hanji packaging (H-PL), plastic box with functional film packaging (F-PL), cardboard box with hanji packaging (H-CB), and cardboard box with functional film packaging (F-CB). The storage boxes were stored in a refrigerator ($0^{\circ}C$ and 80~90% RH), equipped with an ethylene gas scavenging device for 9 weeks and then the quality characteristics were analyzed. The control storage conditions of jujubes showed a substantial decline in quality with decreases in moisture content, hardness, and sugar content as well as increases in decay ratio and redness. Among the tested storage conditions, F-CB was most effective in terms of maintaining the quality of jujube fruit while maintaining firmness, weightlessness, ripening degree from redness and visible appearance. In conclusion, effective storage and packaging conditions during storage enabled maintenance of fruit quality of jujubes for 9 weeks.

The study was conducted to compare quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of aged black chestnut inner shells (ACI) and raw chestnut inner shells (RCI). RCI were aged for 15 days at high humidity and temperature. As storage time progressed, the pH level decreased while acidity increased. The sugar concentration ($^{\circ}Brix$) and reducing sugar concentration (%) increased during storage, whereas L (lightness) decreased. Compared with RCI, L value of ACI was darker than that of RCI after 9 days of storage. In the Hunter color system, L and a (redness) values of ACI were higher than those of RCI, whereas there was no visible difference in degree of aging. Although total phenol contents increased with degree of aging, phenol contents of ACI increased more than those of RCI after 9 days of aging. $IC_{50}$ values for 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl and hydroxyl radical scavenging activities decreased with degree of aging. Based on these results, it is suggested that aged black chestnut inner shells were appropriate in terms of both physicochemical and antioxidative activities.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the quality properties of muffin added with different concentration (0, 1, 3, and 5%) of ginseng leaves powder, which is discarded in the process of ginseng. Density of muffin was the highest at 1.45 g/mL in control, and pH (7.41) was at the highest level as well. There was no tendency at the bottom and upper dimensions according to addition of ginseng leaf powder. The height and baking loss rate of the muffins increased with increase in the powder concentration, but there were no significant differences. The weight of muffins did not show constant tendency, according to addition ratio of ginseng leaves powder. The degree of lightness and yellowness of muffin decreased as the concentration of the powder increased, whereas no significant difference in the redness was found with increased powder concentration. The factors of hardness and chewiness were higher at the control group and cohesiveness was the highest at 0.65 in 3% group, but springiness and gumminess did notshow significant differences. DPPH free radical scavenging activity of muffins was significantly increased with increasing ginseng leaves powder (p<0.05). For the sensory evaluation in 1% group, the intensity of color, smell, taste, softness, and moistness was the lowest, whereas the overall acceptability score of color, smell, taste, chewiness, and moistness was the highest. Thesensory properties of muffin linearly decreased as the concentration of ginseng leaves powder increased. Taken together, the results of this study suggest that ginseng leaf powder is a good ingredient for increasing the consumer acceptability and functionality of cookies.

The purpose of this study was 10 investigate the effect of jujube on the physicochemical properties of lnjeulmi during storage. Various lnjeulmi samples were prepared with steamed glutinous rice, glutinous rice flour, or brown glutinous rice flour along with the addition of chopped jujube at 3, 6, 9, or 12% of rice. In sensory evaluation, the more jujube was added, the stronger sweetness and bitterness were obtained. The samples made with steamed glutinous rice gave the harshest texture. Tenderness and moistness of Deachu-Injeulmi were the highest in the samples made with glutinous rice followed by brown glutinous rice flour, and glutinous rice flour, and they were increased with less amount of jujube. The chewiness of the samples made with brown glutinous rice flour' was the highest and the samples made with glutinous rice were the coarsest. The more jujube was added, the redness and yellowness of Daechu-Injeulmi were increased. The moisture content was higher in the samples made with glutinous rice followed by glutinous rice flour and brown glutinous rice flour. The reducing sugar content of samples during storage was higher in the order of glutinous rice, glutinous rice flour, and brown glutinous rice flour, and it was dramatically reduced until 48hr of storag e; however, it was increased a little bit after 72 hr. The degree of gelatinization was reduced rapidly during the first 24hr of storage, and it was decreased in the order of brown glutinous rice flour, glutinous rice flour, and glutinous rice. The springiness and cohesiveness were decreased during storage. The chewiness and gumminess were increased with the increase of added jujube, and they were increased until 24hr of storage, then decreased after 48hr. The hardness was the highest in the samples made with glutinous rice and 12% of chopped jujube showed the least change in the hardness. The more jujube was added, the less change in the hardness of samples was observed during storage, consequently retarded the speed of retrogradation

The objective of this study was to produce muffins with added dukeum ramie leaf powder and to compare them to a control. We used two different optimal composition ratios to produce muffins. The physical and sensory characters were varied by changing the ratio of dukeum ramie leaf powder, butter, and sugar to identify a critical value using response surface regression analysis. The ranges for the added dukeum ramie leaf powder, sugar, and butter were 15-35, 60-100, and 60-100 g, respectively. Muffins with added dukeum ramie leaves had comparable mineral and antioxidant vitamin compositions to those of dried ramie leaves. Muffins with added dukeum ramie leaf powder satisfied the suitability of the model, showing a p-value within 5% of significance level (p<0.05) for every aspect Volume and height differed without any association to ingredients. Lightness increased when less dukeum ramie leaf powder was added with more butter and sugar, redness increased when more dukeum ramie leaf powder and sugar were added with 70-80 g of butter, whereas yellowness increased when less dukeum ramie powder was added. Texture and toughness increased when less dukeum ramie leaf powder was added. The degree of gumminess and chewiness depended hugely on the amount of sugar. Cohesiveness, decreased with more dukeum ramie leaf powder and butter, whereas hardness increased with a medium range of ingredients. Sensory character increased with less dukeum ramie powder, and overall quality increased with more butter and sugar, but depended on the amount of added dukeum ramie power. The critical values from the sensory characteristics showed that 27 g of dukeum ramie powder, 72 g of sugar, and 86 g of butter was optimum.

This study was conducted to evaluate the proteolysis trends and change in meat quality during 10 days of cold storage in duck M. pectoralis major (PM) and M. iliotibialis (IL). Duck IL had a higher pH and greater degree of lightness but lower cooking loss than PM (p<0.05). During the 10-day cold storage, the pH value of PM declined significantly (p<0.05), while the meat quality traits of IL were not affected by cold storage (p>0.05). In PM, the redness increased from day 1 to day 5, while cooking loss was lower on day 10 compared to day 5 (p<0.05). There were no significant differences in the activities of cathepsin B and proteasome 20S during cold storage (p>0.05). The activity of calpains declined gradually during 10 days of storage (p<0.05), and the activity of calpains in PM was higher than that in IL (p<0.05). A total of 5,155 peptides were detected and derived from 34 proteins of duck PM muscle, whereas 4,222 peptides derived from 32 proteins were detected from duck IL muscle. Duck PM muscle was composed only of fast type of muscle fiber, whereas IL muscle was composed of both slow and fast types. The proteins responsible for glycolysis or myofibrillar proteins were closely related to changes in meat color or water-holding capacity during cold storage. These results suggest that changes in meat quality characteristics during cold storage are closely related to protein degradation, which is also related to the distribution of muscle fiber types.

This study was conducted to optimize the level of sugar added (20 (control), 15, 10, 5%) during the preparation of soy sauce-salted mushrooms (Pleurotus eryngii) jangachi without affecting the degree of preference. The salinity and sugar content during storage of soy sauce-salted mushrooms (Pleurotus eryngii) jangachi decreased significantly as the level of sugar added decreased. The moisture content was found to increase as the level of sugar added decreased. Additionally, the pH increased, while hardness decreased as the level of sugar added decreased during 3 weeks of storage. The L value (lightness) was not different from that of the control group until the addition of 10% sugar, while the a value (redness) and b value (yellowness) increased. The antioxidant activity of vitamin C content and DPPH radical scavenging activity increased as sugar content decreased. Upon sensory evaluation of mushrooms (Pleurotus eryngii) jangachi, the highest value in appearance was observed for the 5 and 15% treatments, while 5% had the highest flavor value, 15 and 10% had the highest taste values, 10 and 15% had the highest texture values, the control and 5% had the greatest clarification values, and the 15 and 10% groups had the greatest overall acceptance. These results suggest that a sugar level of 15% can be used without significantly affecting the overall acceptance.
