In this study, we found that the moisture content of black sesame seeds increased in proportion to steaming time, and it decreased in reverse proportion to the roasting temperature and time. The crude fat and crude ash contents were shown to be in the order of steamed black sesame>raw black sesame and roasted black sesame>raw black sesame, Crude protein decreased in reverse proportion to the steaming time, and more crude protein was found in the raw black sesame samples than in the roasted black sesame samples. The contents of sesamin, sesamolin, and total lignans were shown to be in the order of roasted black sesame>raw black sesame>steamed black sesame. In the steamed black sesame samples, sesamin showed its highest level with 20 minutes of treatment, and sesamolin showed its highest level with 15 minutes of treatment. In the roasted black sesame samples, sesamin, sesamolin, and total lignans showed their highest levels with 15 minutes of treatment at $100^{\circ}C$. The phenolic compound content increased in proportion to steaming time in the steamed samples, and reached a peak after 15 minutes of treatment at $100^{\circ}C$, and then decreased after 20 minutes. SOD-like activity reached a peak after 15 minutes of treatment, and in the roasted sample it reached a peak after 15 minutes of treatment, and then decreased after 20 minutes. SOD-like activity was comparatively lower than tocopherol and higher than sesamol. The intensity of electron donating ability, following 30 minute treatments, was shown to be highest in the steamed black sesame samples after 25 minutes of treatment, and next highest in the roasted black sesame samples after 15 minutes at $100^{\circ}C$. The electron donating ability was comparatively lower than tocopherol and sesamol. With regard to lecithin's antioxidant effects, the steamed samples showed a higher oxidation restriction rate in proportion to time, and the roasted samples showed the highest rate after 15 minutes of treatment, and then decreased after 20 minutes of treatment. for hydroxyl radical scavenging, similar scavenging activity to tocopherol, and comparatively higher scavenging activity than sesamol, was shown in all samples: all samples showed scavenging abilities of 90% or higher. In summary, this study applied three different treatment methods to black sesame to determine the optimum treatment conditions, and also examined the antioxidant effects and functional characteristics. The results showed that roasting can be used for other purposes than producing oil, and also suggested that methods other than roasting can be used in a variety of ways in cooking. Also, the different treatment methods can be applied in cooking in a variety of ways, to enhance functionality and preference.

The results on the chemical characteristics of the pork fed with fermented feeds are summarized as follows; 1) The pork treated with fermented feeds had lower fat and higher protein content than control pork in proximate compositions. It is considered to be the improvement of the quality. 2) It was not recognized to the difference of oxidation level among the sample porks. 3) Oleic acid was the highest concentration in the components of fatty acid of pork. The rate of the saturated and unsaturated fatty acids is 38.8 % : 59.9 % in the ordinary meat, 40.8 % : 57.8 % in the a high-grade meat, and 36.3 % : 62.0 % in the pork treated with fermented feeds. In addition, the essential fatty acid content of them is 14 %, 11.2 %, and 16.7%, respectively. 4) Glutamic acid was the highest composition in total amino acids and the essential amino acid content was 39% in both an ordinary meat and the pork treated with fermented feeds, and 14 % in high-grade meat. 5) It was no difference in the inorganic content among the samples. The water holding capacity by extraction meat juice was higher to 92 % in the pork treated with fermented feeds and 15.6 % in a loss in quantity by heating than others. Thus, the pork bred with fermented feeds was evaluated to be good in terms of processing and cooking.

This study investigated the quality change of strip loin from hanwoo with quality grade 2 produced by dry aging, and compared the quality of dry-aged strip loin with that of strip loin from hanwoo with quality grade $1^+$. Hanwoo strip loins with quality grade $1^+$ (SL1) and 2 (SL2) after a day of slaughter and dry-aged strip loin (DSL2) aged for 21 days at $2^{\circ}C$ with 85% humidity were obtained from local markets. The proximate composition, pH, cooking loss, lipid oxidation, instrumental color (CIE $L^*$, $a^*$ and $b^*$ value) and sensory properties of the strip loins were measured. DSL2 contained low moisture and high protein contents compared with SL2, and low fat, high protein, and high ash contents compared with SL1 (p<0.05). The pH and cooking loss were higher and lower, respectively, in DSL2 compared to SL2 (p<0.05). SL1 had a higher pH than DSL2 (p<0.05). However, the cooking loss was not different between SL1 and DSL2. The TBARS value was the highest in DSL2 and the lowest in SL2 (p<0.05). DSL2 had higher $L^*$ and $b^*$ value compared with SL2 (p<0.05). There were no significant differences of $L^*$, $a^*$ and $b^*$ values between DSL2 and SL1. Sensory properties such as the color, flavor, taste, texture, and acceptability of DSL2 were higher than those of SL2 (p<0.05). There was no significant different in all sensory properties between DSL2 and SL1. According to the results, dry aging can improve the nutritional and sensorial quality of strip loin with quality grade 2 to quality comparable to quality grade $1^+$.

The objective of this study was to determine the physicochemical and sensory properties of cooked emulsion sausages containing different levels of lotus rhizome powder (0, 1, 2, and 3%, based on total weight). Lotus rhizome powder had no significant (p>0.05) impact on pH, moisture, protein, or ash content of sausage. However, fat content was slightly but significantly (p<0.05) decreased when the level of lotus rhizome powder was increased in the sausages. The addition of lotus rhizome powder to sausages at over 1% resulted in significantly (p<0.05) darker and less red color of cooked sausage compared to control. Increase in lotus rhizome level slightly improved the emulsion stability and apparent viscosity. Significant (p<0.05) reduction in cooking loss was observed when more than 1% of lotus rhizome powder was added to sausages. The textural properties of sausages were unaffected by the inclusion of lotus rhizome except for springiness and chewiness. On the manufacture day, control sausage had significantly (p<0.05) higher TBARS value than treatments. Regarding sensory characteristics, increased levels of lotus rhizome powder decreased (p<0.05) color and juiciness scores. However, cooked sausages exhibited similar overall acceptability regardless of the level of lotus rhizome powder added to sausages. Therefore, lotus rhizome powder, an antioxidant dietary fiber, could be used as an effective natural ingredient in meat products for the development of healthier and functional food.

To examine the antioxidant activity of grape seed ethanol extract, the antioxidative index (AI) by the active oxygen method (AOM) and peroxide value (POV) of linoleic acids containing the extract at levels of 100, 500, 1000 ppm was measured during storage at 6$0^{\circ}C$ for 12 days. When comparing with BHT, the extract at levels of 500 ppm showed similar or better antioxidant activity (AI: 2.25, POV: 57 meq/kg oil) than that (AI: 1.21, POV:58 meq/kg oil ) of BHT at 200 ppm level. The mixture of 500 ppm of the extract and 500 ppm of ascorbic acid showed intense synergistic antioxidant activity (AI: 6.21, POV: 14 meq/kg oil) compared with using 1000 ppm of the extract only (AI: 3.39, POV 43 meq/kg oil). Also to determine the feasibility of using the extract for natural antioxidant, the oxidative stability of roasted peanut and Ramyon was investigated by measuring the POV of crude oils from the samples stored at 60"C for 18 days. The oxidative stability of roasted peanut and Ramyon seemed to be enhanced by treatment with the extract at level of 1000 ppm, especially with the 1 : 1 mixture of extract and ascorbic acid. This study suggested that grape seed ethanol extract could be used as the natural antioxidant for the improvement of overall oxidation stability of fat containing foods.oods.

This study aimed at comparing the storage stability, fatty acids profile, volatile flavor compounds and eating quality of Hanwoo beef longissimus thoracis (LT) muscles between two marbling morphological groups (fineness and coarseness). The 1⁺ grade Hanwoo LT muscles were measured for marbling fleck morphology at the 13^th thoracic vertebrae location by using computerized image analysis. Results reveal that both marbling groups had similar proximate composition (protein, fat, moisture and collagen), color and technological quality traits (p>0.05). However, the coarse marbling group presented greater C18:2n6 and polyunsaturated fatty acids contents compared to the fine marbling group (p<0.05). Furthermore, the fine marbling group presented lower volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) and 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) contents compared to the coarse marbling group after 14 d storage (p<0.05). Also, higher amounts of C18:2n6 oxidation-derived volatile compounds such as hexanal and 3-ethyl-2-methyl-1,3-hexadiene, were found in the coarse marbling group. In term of sensory aspects, the finely-marbled group received higher scores of flavor and taste compared to the coarse marbling group (p<0.05). Overall, the marbling flecks morphology partially showed its effects on the storage stability, fatty acids profile and eating quality of the 1⁺ grade Hanwoo beef LT muscle.

In previous studies, we confirmed that the ethanol extract of Polygonatum sibiricum (ID1216) has anti-obesity effects on high-fat diet-fed mice. To identify the obesity-related genes affected by ID1216, we studied its effects both in vivo and in vitro. In mice, single administration of ID1216 increased the expression of obesity-related genes including sirtuin1 (SIRT1), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor ${\gamma}$ coactivator $1{\alpha}$ ($PGC1{\alpha}$) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor ${\alpha}$ ($PPAR{\alpha}$) compared to that in mice administered the vehicle; their downstream genes (uncoupling proteins, acyl-CoA oxidase, adipocyte protein 2, and hormone-sensitive lipase) were also increased by ID1216. In fully differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes, ID1216 showed the same effects on anti-obesity genes as those in the animal model. Based on these results, we propose that ID1216 has anti-obesity effects by regulating the $SIRT1-PGC1{\alpha}-PPAR{\alpha}$ pathway and their downstream genes, thereby controlling energy and lipid metabolisms.

In the present paper, the effect of sodium sulfite treatment on tile inhibition of browning reactions occurring in the storage of dried oyster was tested and the supplementary effect of antioxidantsaddedwasalsomentioned. Dried oysters treated with sodium sulfite solutions as described in the previous paper(Lee and Choi, 1977) were stored in the bottles with silica gel bags at room temperature with or without the application of antioxidants. The ethanol solution of an antioxidant mixture(BHA, BHT, plus, synergists) was sprayed on the surface of cooked oyster before drying. The density of brown pigment was determined spectrophotometrically by measuring the absorbance at 420 and 440 nm of both fractions of pigment extract, namely chloroform-methanol and water soluble fractions, which represent the brown color developed by fat oxidation and Maillard reactions respectively. TBA value was also measured for the oxidative rancidity in oysters during the storage. It appeared from the results that the 0.5 M sodium sulfite-60minute treated samples showed better effect after 150 day storage at room temperature. Controlling tile pH of treating solutions, did not reveal so much different in inhibitory effect in the aspect of color but a more reduction of tyrosine and reducing sugar was resulted with acidic solution than with alkaline solution. The development of brown color in dried oyster seemed to be leaded rather by the oxidative rancidity of lipids than sugar-amino reactions particularly in a long-term storage since the browning of chloroform-methanol fraction progressed more rapidly than of water. soluble fraction. The application of antioxidant, therefore, could largely retard the browning of the product as appeared in the results that sodium sulfite treated oyster with addition of antioxidant kept the best color during the storage.

In this study, the effects of red ginseng extracts (RGE), which has been used as an antioxidant and antimicrobial agent, on pork sausage were evaluated. The treatments were as follows; addition of 0.01% sodium ascorbate (V), 0.5% RGE (T1), 1.0% RGE (T2) and 1.5% RGE (T3) to the basal formula (C). T3 had a significantly higher pH, cooking loss and yellowness ($CIEb^*$) and lower lightness (CIE $L^*$) and redness (CIE $a^*$) than the other samples. The hardness and surface hardness values of 1.5% RGE treated sample were significantly lower (p<0.01) than those of C. However, the cohesiveness values of the RGE samples were higher than the others (p<0.05). In the sensory evaluation, no significant differences in color, taste, texture, juiciness and acceptability were observed among the tested samples, while, the aroma scores of T2 and T3 were higher than those of the C and V samples (p<0.05). The TBARS values of RGE treated groups were higher (p<0.05) than the C sample after 1, 2 and 3 weeks of storage; however, this value did not increase with storage time (p>0.05). When the RGE concentration was high, the reduction in total plate counts and VBN value at week 3 and 4 of storage (p<0.01) decreased. In conclusion, red ginseng extracts seemed to have a positive impact on lipid oxidation, aroma and the microbial characteristics of pork sausage.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of moisture content on microbiological stability and texture characteristic of dry-cured ham. The moisture content of dry-cured hams was adjusted to 35% (C) or 45% (T) and then vacuumpackaged after slicing to a 1 inch thickness. All packaged dry-cured hams were stored at $10^{\circ}C$ for 3 mon, and physicochemical analyses and a sensory evaluation were conducted to verify the quality of dry-cured hams during four different storage periods. Moisture content was significantly higher in T (44.89%) compared to that in C (35.03%). However, crude fat content was higher in C (14.08%) than that in T (11.11%). The pH, salinity, and shear force were higher in C than those in T, and dry-cured hams derived from C seemed to provide low lipid oxidation stability during storage. In contrast, T showed high CIE $L^*$, CIE $a^*$ and CIE $b^*$, and aw values when compared to dry-cured hams from C. Total plate counts and Lactobacillus tended to increase with the increase in storage period, and both were lower in T than those in C after 1 mon of storage. Our results indicate that 45% moisture content improved dry-cured ham quality as compared to that of dry-cured hams containing 35% moisture.
