To promote the consumption of race, comparative study was performed on characteristics of wheat flour noodle mixed with brown rice flour and colored rice flour. Protein content of colored rice was higher than that of the brown rice, but lipid and ash contents were similar to those of brown rice. Colored rice flour had significantly lower peak viscosity, holding viscosity, breakdown viscosity, final viscosity and setback viscosity than those of wheat flour, while brown rice had significantly higher peak viscosity, breakdown viscosity and setback viscosity than those of colored rice flour and wheat flour. Colored rice and brown rice had 5.3~6.4% total dietary fiber, and the proportions of soluble fiber in total dietary fiber were quite low, ranging from 9.4% to 18.8%. L(brightness), a(redness) and b(yellowness) of raw noodles were measured using a colorimeter. L(brightness) and b(yellowness) values of Asian raw noodles made from colored rice and brown rice significantly decreased. Addition of colored rice flour and brown rice flour to Asian noodle reduces cutting forces of dry and cooked noodles. The cooked noodle with 10% chalheukmi waxy rice flour was the highest in the cutting force of cooked noodle. Addition of 20% chalheukini waxy rice flour and 20% brown rice flour to wheat flour was got to a relatively high score for appearance, color, texture, taste and overall eating quality from sensory evaluation of cooked noodles.

The effect of planting densities on the growth of $Sedum$ $samentosum$ (4 collections) was investigated using nutrient film technique (NFT) with Yamazaki' lettuce nutrient solution (1982) from September 5th to October 24th in non-heating plastic film house. At 40 days, the plant height of 4 collections showed the range of 15.0-18.9 cm, and mean plant height was high the order of $10{\times}10$, $2.5{\times}2.5$, and $5{\times}5cm$. The growth of 'Pohang' and 'Wando' collections was better compared to that of 'Gunsan' and 'Wanju' collections. Number of node, stem diameter, and fresh and dry weight per plant were decreased in higher planting density. Despite the lower fresh weight per plant obtained, the fresh yield per $m^2$ was significantly increased in higher planting density. The mean fresh yield was $14.9kg{\cdot}m^{-2}$ in $2.5{\times}2.5cm$, and 'Pohang' collection showed the highest fresh yield ($17.6kg{\cdot}m^{-2}$). The first optimized harvesting time base on plant height was 30-40 days after NFT culture during autumn season. In eating quality, compression force of stem and bitterness of shoot were decreased in higher planting density. However, the heavy labor demanding high density cutting needs to be improved for hydroponic culture of $S.$ $samentosum$.

To prepare high-quality fast foods using salmon, this study developed a docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)-enriched salmon patty, and compared its quality with soybean oil-added patty and commercial patty. The moisture and lipid contents of the DHA-enriched patty were 61.9% and 7.7%, respectively. The moisture content was lower than in the commercial patty, while the lipid content was higher. The lipophilic and hydrophilic browning indices of the DHA-enriched patty were 0.10 and 0.05, respectively, which were lower than those of the commercial patty. The DHA-enriched patty had 5% less trichloroacetic acid (TCA)-soluble nitrogen than the commercial patty, and it was firmer. There were no differences in the proximate composition, browning indices, TCA-soluble nitrogen content, and hardness between the soybean-added and DHA-enriched patties prepared in this experiment. Examining the fatty acid compositions of the patties, the saturated acid and monoenoic acid compositions decreased in the following order: DHA-enriched patty > soybean oil-added patty > commercial patty, while the polyenoic acid composition increased in that order. The total amino acid content of the DHA-enriched patty was 19.13 g/100 g, which was 32% higher than that of the commercial patty (14.47 g/100 g). No enriching effect of minerals would be expected on eating a 100 g DHA-enriched patty, except for phosphorus. The sensory evaluation indicated that the DHA-enriched patty was superior in color and taste to the commercial patty, while there was no difference in flavor between the patties.

Background: The aim of this study was to investigate demographic features, dietary habits, and some possible risk factors for being susceptible to breast cancer in Iranian women. Materials and Methods: A study of dietary habits and breast cancer was conducted among 53 Iranian women with histological confirmed disease and 40 matched controls. A dietary habits questionnaire was used to evaluate the pattern of selected food intakes. The risk of cancer was analyzed after adjustment for confounding factors. Age, weight, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, educational status, parity, lactation, marital status, menopause, history of estrogen therapy, and family history of breast disease or cancer were assessed among participants. Special attention was given to the relationship between consumption of high fat meat, milk, yogurt and cheese as well use of frying oils for frying foods, use of olive/liquid oils for cooking, removing fat from meat and poultry, removing chicken skin and not use of mayonnaise as salad dressing and the risk of breast cancer. Moreover, salad, vegetable and fruit consumption, and eating outdoors owere investigated. Results: Our results revealed significant lower education and higher BMI and waist circumference levels in patients with breast cancer. There was significantly increased breast cancer risk in overweight women in comparison with normal weight (OR=2.91, 95%CI 1.24 to 6.82). High intake of fat dairy products including milk and cheese was found to be a statistically significant factor for increasing breast cancer risk in models adjusting for age, BMI and education. Use of olive/liquid oils for cooking and avoidance of mayonnaise as salad dressing are related to lower risk of breast cancer. The frequency of vegetable and fruit consumption was significantly lower in patients with breast cancer compared to healthy women. Conclusions: Dietary habits might be risk factors for breast cancer among Iranian women. Adoption of a prudent diet could be an appropriate strategy for preventing breast cancer.

The application of Dongchimi liquid to Naengmyon broth to improve its eating quality was scientifically explored by reviewing the quality of the product properties. Primarily, the optimum fermentation conditions for Dongchimi from which the liquid portion was extracted were pursued and the optimum mixing ratio sought on the basis of the product physicochemical properties. The liquid portions, periodically extracted from Dongchimi at intervals of two or five days, during fermentation at $10^{\circ}C$, were added to Naengmyon broth. The treatments were prepared at three levels namely, basic broth only ('A') and with ratios of Dongchimi liquid to basic broth of 3:7 (v/v, 'B') and 5:5 (vfv, 'C'). As a typical phenomenon of kimchi fermentation, a gradual decrease in the pH with increasing total acidity was observed as the fermentation of the Dongchimi progressed. At $10^{\circ}C$, the optimum ripening was obtained from day 8, and continued until day 15, when the pH was maintained at about 3.8 to 4.0. The total vitamin C and reducing sugar contents increased until the 13th-day of fermentation, but then decreased thereafter. The turbidity and solid content of the Dongchimi liquid increased with progression of the fermentation. With respect to the color values, the lightness (L) decreased, with increases in the redness (a), yellowness (b) and total color difference $({\Delta}E)$ during fermentation. Most of these observed phenomena for the Naengmyon broth substituted with $30\%$ (Treatment 'A') and $50\%$ (Treatment 'B') Dongchimi liquid, with different storage periods, confirmed the previous fermentation patterns of Dongchimi. A decrease in the pH with increasing total acidity, as well as gradual increases in the total vitamin C and reducing sugars (glucose and fructose) up to the 13th-day of fermentation were accompanied by subsequent declining patterns. The turbidity and solid content of the mixed broth also increased with increasing Dongchimi liquid fermentation period. With respect to the color of the mixed broth, the lightness was decreased, while the redness, yellowness and total color difference increased with increasing Dongchimi liquid fermentation period. It was also proven that the addition of slightly over-ripened Dongchimi liquid to the Naengmyon broth was more preferable.

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.

Pear cultivar 'Sinhwa' (Pyrus pyrifolia var. culta Nakai) was originated from a cross between 'Niitaka' and Whasan' with the aims of improving the fruit quality and the traits of cultivation and of early maturing more than 'Whasan' cultivar at Pear Research Station of National Institute of Horticultural & Herbal Science, Rural Development Administration in 1995. 'Sinhwa' was preliminarily selected in 2004 and named in 2009. The tree shows vigorous growth habit and semi-spread characters like 'Niitaka'. Furthermore, it has a sufficient and well upkeep of the flower bud, so it can be more easily cultivated in orchards. In the flower characteristics, flowering time of 'Sinhwa' is $11^{th}$ April like as maternal parent 'Niitaka'. Also 'Sinhwa' has short of pollen grains, so it is need above two pollinizer cultivars. 'Sinhwa' is highly resistant to black leaf spot (Alternaria kikuchiana) and relatively strong to pear scab (Venturia nashicola) in field condition. The optimum harvest time is around Sep. $15^{th}$ in Naju, which is ahead of 'Whasan' about 10 days in the harvest period. The fruit shape is oblate and fruit skin color is yellowish-brown during harvesting time. The average weight of fruit is 627 g, and the soluble solids content is $13.0^{\circ}Brix$. The flesh is very soft and juicy, and renders good eating quality. Shelf life is about 30 days under the room temperature condition.

The sensory evaluation by Preference test revealed that the best Kongjook was obtained when the soymilk was prepared with eight-times of water to the volume of soybean. Based on the results, the ratios of soybean: rice: water (v/v/v) having 2:1:16($G_1$), 3:2:24($G_2$), 3:2:30($G_3$),and 4:3:32($G_4$), were chosen. The soaked rice was cooked with soymilk, Kongjook prepared from $G_2$ and $G_4$, showed the highes preference in eating quality and flavor, but the former had better quality in consistency and color, indicating that Kongjook from $G_2$ was the most preferable. The cooking time of soybean prior to the preparation of soymilk also showed that Kongjook prepared from $G_2$ had better preference than other samples regardless of the cooking times of soybean. The spreadability of Kongjook from $G_2$ determined with a line-chart method was 5.85.

This study was performed to understand the effects of filling stage temperature on the characteristics of starch and storage protein and the quality of rice grains. Eight early maturing rice varieties were cultivated in Cheolweon (latitude $38^{\circ}15^{\prime}N$) and Suwon (latitude $37^{\circ}16^{\prime}N$) areas in Korea. Rice grown in Suwon, with relatively high ripening period temperatures, showed significantly reduced head rice ratio and eating qualities, higher protein and lower amylose contents than rice grown in Cheolweon. In rice that ripened under high temperature conditions, the starch contained significantly less short-chain amylopectin (DP < 12) but more intermediate- (DP 13-24) and long- (DP > 25) chain amlylopectin compared to rice that ripened under normal conditions. In addition, the electrophoretic pattern of rice storage protein under high- temperature conditions revealed decreased prolamin and increased glutelin contents.

To establish the optimum conditions for storing buttercup squash, we examined the effectiveness of several storage methods and the quality of the squash under various storage conditions, including temperature (12 and $20^{\circ}C$) and relative humidity (20, 40, 60, and 80%). The spoiling rate of the squash was affected more by the storage temperature than the relative humidity, and the squash stored at $20^{\circ}C$ started to be deteriorated after 20 days of storage. At $20^{\circ}C$, soluble solid content gradually increased until 20 days of storage, and then it tended to decrease. The L-value had a tendency to increase with days of storage, and the a- and b-value also increased after 40 days. In addition, the color changes were great when the squash was stored at high temperature and high relative humidity. The total pectin content increased until 20 days at $20^{\circ}C$, and then it decreased, but less change was observed in the squash stored at $12^{\circ}C$. Overall, the results showed that storage at $20^{\circ}C$ after field curing resulted in excessive weight loss, color loss and poor eating quality, as well as a high level of decay (approximately 70%) after 40 days. However, the squash stored at $12^{\circ}C$ and 60% RH (relative humidity) showed less degreening and had a reduced level of decay, below 10%.
