The objective of this research was to elucidate the physicochemical, structural, pasting and rheological properties of potato starch isolated from a foreign potato cultivar ('Atlantic') and new domestic potato cultivars ('Goun', 'Sebong', and 'Jinsun'). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and one-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (1D NMR) showed that the structural properties of potato starch did not vary significantly with cultivars. RVA analysis demonstrated that the 'Atlantic' starch had the highest breakdown viscosity among all potato starches. In steady shear rheological analysis, all potato starch dispersions showed shear-thinning behaviors (n =0.63-0.72) at $25^{\circ}C$. The highest apparent viscosity (${\eta}_{a,5}$), consistency index (K), and yield stress (${\sigma}_{oc}$) were observed in the 'Goun' starch dispersion. In dynamic shear rheological analysis, storage modulus (G') and loss modulus (G") values of new domestic potato starch dispersions were higher than those of the 'Atlantic' starch dispersion.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the physicochemical, structural, and rheological properties of new domestic potato cultivars ('Goun', 'Sebong', and 'Jinsun') against the foreign potato cultivar 'Atlantic'. Based on the results obtained from scanning electron micrograph, X-ray, and Fourier transform infrared spectrum analyses, the structural properties of all potato flours were not considerably different. Rapid visco analyzer analyses showed that the setback viscosities of 'Goun', 'Sebong', and 'Jinsun' were significantly lower than that of 'Atlantic'. For steady shear rheological properties, potato flour dispersions showed shear-thinning behaviors (n=0.45~0.49) at $25^{\circ}C$. Apparent viscosity and consistency index of 'Atlantic' were similar to those of 'Sebong' and 'Jinsun'. For dynamic shear rheological properties, storage modulus (G′) and loss modulus increased, whereas complex viscosity (${\eta}^*$) was reduced with increasing frequency from 0.63 to 62.8 rad/s. G′ and ${\eta}^*$ values of 'Jinsun' were significantly higher than those of the other potato cultivars.

In an attempt to develop composite flours based on raw materials available in Korea, six domestic resources were investigated with respect to their physical and chemical properties, nutritive value and economy. The results are summarized as follows: 1) Flours from naked barley, sweet potato, potato, corn, defatted rice bran and defatted soybean were compared in respect of their proximate composition, thiamine content and protein score. 2) In color comparison, naked barley and defatted soy flours were comparable to wheat flour whereas corn and sweet potato flours were a little inferior. In raising power, naked barley and defatted soy flours were similar to wheat flour and others were inferior. 3) In maximum viscosity of flours by amylograph, naked barley, corn and potato flours were higher than wheat flour and others were lower. In viscosity in cooling, corn flour was similar to wheat flour and naked barley and potato flours were lower. Addition of $10{\sim}20%$ defatted soy flour into other flours generally caused the lowering of viscosity. Addition of emulsifiers such as glyceryl monostearate, calcium stearyl lactylate, Methocel and Emulthin into the flours manifested different effects on the amylogram. 4) In nutritional test by rat, diets consisting of naked barley, sweet potato, potato or corn flours, each containing defatted soy flour (at 10% level with exception of 20% for sweet potato flour) and naked barley flour fortified with lysine were similar to wheat flour in digestibility, but were superior in NPU and biological value. 5) In price estimation, sweet potato and corn flours were competitive with wheat flour, but naked barley flour was a little expensive. On the other hand, barley and sweet potato are promising in terms of domestic production.

Potatoes are one of the world's four major crops, and domestic consumption is currently increasing in Korea. However, the mechanization rate of potatoes is very low, and especially, harvesting is the most labor-intensive task in potato production. In Korea, potato-collecting work depends on manpower, so it is necessary to develop a gathering-type harvester that can be used for processes from digging to harvesting. Therefore, in this study, a self-propelled-type potato harvester was developed, and its performance was analyzed to mechanize harvesting. The potato harvester was developed to have a crawler-type driving part with a 60 hp diesel engine and consisted of a digging part that digs potatoes from the ground, a vertical transporting part that transfers the dug potatoes to the height of the collection bag, a separating part that separates debris, such as stones and soil, and a collecting part that loads the collection box. A field test of the potato harvester was conducted, and performance was evaluated by the damage, loss, and debris mixing proportions, which were 2.5%, 2.8%, and 2.6%, respectively. The working capacity was 1.2 h/10 a. The economic analysis results showed that the cost of harvesting work could be reduced by 12.7% compared to manual harvesting.

Purpose: This study examined the food composition of four raw and boiled domestic potato cultivars: Superior, Dejima, Bora Valley and Rose. Methods: Proximate composition (moisture, protein, ash, dietary fiber and fat), minerals (calcium, phosphorus, iron, potassium, sodium and magnesium) and vitamins (thiamine, riboflavin and niacin) were analyzed in the study. Results: In this study, it was observed that the moisture contents of raw and boiled Bora Valley potato were 83.74 g/100 g and 81.57 g/100 g, respectively, which was highest among the studied cultivars. The protein content of the raw and boiled Rose potato (12.23 g/100 g and 11.02 g/100 g) was higher than that of the other cultivars. Protein contents of boiled Bora Valley and Rose potatoes were significantly lower than those of their respective raw samples. The potassium, phosphorus and sodium contents of Bora Valley potato were 2,397.69 mg/100 g, 389.13 mg/100 g and 14.12 mg/100 g, respectively. In case of raw potato, the calcium, iron and magnesium contents of Dejima potato were 51.52 mg/100 g, 3.21 mg/100 g and 137.62 mg/100 g, respectively, which were the highest values among the tested potato cultivars. Total dietary fiber content of Dejima potato was 14.78 g/100 g, which was the highest level. The dietary fiber contents of four cultivars of potatoes were lower after boiling. Thiamine content was highest in the Bora Valley potato (0.43 mg/100 g). Riboflavin contents of the Rose potato was 0.35 mg/100 g, which was higher than that of the others. Conclusion: Overall, four cultivars of raw and boiled potatoes had enhanced food composition. Therefore, these potato cultivars are expected to be highly valuable food items for the development and application of functional foods.

The protein profiles of domestic potato cultivars were evaluated for total protein determination, amino acid composition, SDS-PAGE analysis and scanning densitometry. There were statistically significant differences in the levels of amino acids among potato cultivars. Total nitrogen amount was also significantly different among cultivars, ranging from 1.27 to 1.64%. SDS-PAGE analysis showed that there were significant differences in the content of major potato proteins such as papatin (40 kDa), trypsin inhibitor (20 kDa) and protease inhibitor (15 kDa) among cultivars (p<0.05). The amount of papatin among cultivars with a range of 22.16 to 25.81 mg/g d.w. was higher in Jopung, Shepody and Superior, whereas the amount of protease inhibitors including 15 kDa and 20 kDa was the highest in Jopung (37.0%). The Shepody contains the highest amount of papatin (25.8%) and the lowest of trypsin inhibitor (5.22%). Thus, it is suggested that Shepody is the most desirable cultivar for better nutrition based on the protein profile.

The purpose of this study was the optimization of mixing ratio of rice flour, potato starch and soybean flour baking domestic rice cookies with nuts. Response surface methodology, with a central composite design comprising 5 levels and 3 variables, was used to identify the optimal combination of rice flour ($X_1$), potato starch ($X_2$) and soybean flour ($X_3$). The physical properties of 16 samples were analyzed, including color L (p<0.001), color a, color b (p<0.05), spreadability (p<0.05) and hardness (p<0.05). In sensory evaluations, color (p<0.05), flavor, taste (p<0.05), crunch (p<0.05) and overall quality (p<0.05) were differed significantly among the samples. The optimal compositional ratios were 78.90 g rice flour, 18.96 g potato starch, and 15.90 g the soybean flour in 420 g total weight.

In order to reduce rice cultivation area in paddy fields and to increase domestic self-sufficiency of imported upland grain, it is necessary to increase double cropping area of upland crops in paddy field in accordance with decrease of rice consumption in Korea. The double cropping of spring potato-summer grain maize can be combined because of enough growing season in the southern plain of Korea. Spring potato, which is profitable, can be planted in the late February and harvested in the late May as the main crop. Subsequent grain maize can be planted in early June and harvested in November (maturity in the early October). Spring potato (variety Soomi) yielded $2,544kg\;10a^{-1}$ (tuber) when planted in late February, 2016. When maize was planted in June as the second cropping crop, though growth of plant decreased much, grain yield decreased slightly compared to normal planting in April or May. There was enough time to dry maize ear in the field after maturity before harvesting, which saved labor and time for grain drying, since there is no autumn planting at the double cropping of spring potato-summer grain maize. When grain maize (variety Gwangpyeongok) was planted in the early June (June $10^{th}$), average grain yield of above $860kg\;10a^{-1}$ over 2 years of 2015 and 2016 was obtained, and the annual total yield (potato tuber + maize grain) of 3,400 kg $10a^{-1}$ was obtained. The result indicates that the double cropping of spring potato-summer maize using paddy fields in southern plain of Korea, could contribute to the self-sufficiency of upland crops through the maximum production.

The objective of this study was to manufacture three kinds of domestic sweet potato Makgeolli using a mixture design and an optimization technique. The effects of four different manufacture methods, such as simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) with or without malt and separate hydrolysis and fermentation (SHF) with or without malt were determined. The SSF methods of Makgeolli produced higher alcohol content than that of SHF methods. The sensory score was not influenced by different making methods. Fourteen experimental points were selected, and rice (10~50%), sweet potato (10~50%) and water (40~60%) were chosen as independent variables. The measured responses were sensory preference, total polyphenol content, and DPPH radical scavenging activities. The ratio of the optimum sweet potato Makgeolli mixture formulation was developed as 15.11 (rice): 44.89 (sweet potato): 40 (water) using the optimization technique. The desirability of the optimum mixture formulation was 0.839. Yellow sweet potato Makgeolli using the optimum mixture formulation produced higher soluble sugar content compared to others. Regular sweet potato Makgeolli produced higher pH. The purple sweet potato Makgeolli's total polyphenol content and DPPH radical scavenging activity were measured to be the highest at $771.91{\pm}1.42mg\;GAE/{\ell}$, $131.55{\pm}4.03%$.

The objective of this study was to increase the efficiency of starch extraction from potato sludge by different concentration of food-grade hemicellulase. The potato sludge, which is a by-product of potato processing industry, was treated with food-grade hemicellulase. Starch extraction efficiency displayed no significant difference in hemicellulase concentration. The purities of potato starch increased from 83.40 to 95.91, 97.44, 95.58, and 97.79%, with treated 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, and 1.5% hemicellulase, respectively. The physicochemical properties of the starches, such as granule structure, particle size, pasting, and thermal transition, were not affected by the concentration of hemicellulase. These results indicate that food-grade hemicellulase treatment is an efficient method for starch extraction from potato sludge.
