This study was carried out to investigate the feasibility of production of soy yogurt, which is inexpensive and high protein product with an acceptable flavor, from soy milk using lactic acid bacteria. Utilization of various carbohydrates by Lactobacillus acidophilus, Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus was stuied. Sucrose, the major carbohydrate in soymilk, was fermented by L. acidophilus and S. thermophilus. None of the testing microorganisms was able to ferment melibiose and raffinose. Growth of lactic acid bacteria in soymilk was examined every 4 hour. L. acidophilus exhibited the highest growth rate during the early stage. After 16 hours of incubation, however, all the cultures with the exception of L. bulgaricus grew at nearly equal rates. Microscopic examination of mixed cultures showed that the presence of S. thermophilus was much more pronounced than that of L. bulgaricus. All the cultures with the exception of L. bulgaricus formed acid rapidly during 16 hours of incubation, bringing the titratable acidity to 0.6% and pH to 4.3, which was sufficient to cause coagulation of soymilk. L. bulgaricus produced acid to a much lesser extent and caused coagulation of soymitk after 30 hours at earliest. Three kinds of yogurts were prepared from 100% soymilk, 100% milk and 50% soy-50% milk combination by S. thermophilus and were evaluated by taste panel. Soy yogurt received a significantly lower mean odor score than milk yogurt. Soy yogurt had custardlike texture, while milk yogurt was syrupy. However the scores for texture as well as those for color and flavor did not differ significantly among the treatment. The mean total scores for yogurts were not significantly different and were equivalent to ratings between good and high fair.

This study was conducted to promote the utilization of fish paste with added lotus leaf powder as a food. The tested concentrations of lotus leaf powder were 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, and 2%. All the samples of fish paste with added lotus leaf powder had 37% water content. For the Hunter color values, the L, a and b values of the fish paste decreased with increasing concentrations of lotus leaf powder. And the folding test presented a good score(AA). In the texture meter test, the gumminess, and brittleness decreased according to increasing concentrations of lotus leaf powder. However, the hardness, cohesiveness, and springiness of the fish paste were not significantly changed by the addition of lotus leaf powder. In the sensory evaluation, the lotus leaf flavor, hardness, and adhesiveness increased as the concentrations of lotus leaf powder increased. The fish paste with 0.5% lotus leaf powder(0.5 LP) showed the highest acceptance scores in terms of pleasant taste and springiness. The fish paste with 0.5% lotus leaf powder(0.5 LP) also showed the highest acceptance scores for appearance, flavor, taste, texture, and overall quality. Therefore, the results suggest that lotus leaf powder can be applied to fish paste to increase its quality and functionality.

This study was conducted to evaluate and compare new beer (NB) with market beers, e.g., New castle brown ale (NC), Victoria bitter (VB), and Coopers pale ale (CP) using physicochemical parameters. In addition, pattern recognition analyses were carried out using an electronic nose based on mass spectrometry (MS-E nose) and an electronic tongue (E-tongue) for differentiation of the different types of beer. The measured alcohol content of NB was 4.37%. NB was not significantly different compared with other types of beer with regard to bitterness unit, color, and polyphenol content (p<0.05). On the basis of the flavor pattern determined by the MS-E nose, NB was separated by DF1 (first score from discriminant function analysis), while NC, VB, and CP were located in the same group. The result of the E-tongue showed that the different samples could be clearly discriminated; NB was less sour. It was suggested that the discriminant function analysis (DFA) given by the MS-E nose and E-tongue could be used for evaluations during new product development. Furthermore, because of its simplicity, it might be possible to use the validated method for the evaluation of beer.

This study was carried out to investigate the characteristics of goat and cow milk yogurts containing high-exopolysaccharide fermented by Streptoccous thermophilus LFG isolated from kefir. The pH of cow milk yogurt was higher than that of goat milk yogurt. The contents of lactic acid was greater in goat milk yogurt (743.9-1043.8 mg/100 g) than in cow milk yogurt (441.6-709.9 mg/100 g). The numbers of survival lactic acid bacteria were the greatest in goat milk yogurt fermented by Str. thermophilus LFG. Viscosity was greater in cow and goat milk yogurts cultured by Str. thermophilus LFG than in yogurts by Str. thermophilus TH3. Syneresis of yogurt fermented by Str. thermophilus LFG was 9.6-16.1% and 28.2-31.8% in yogurt fermented by Str. thermophilus TH3 after 10 d storage at $4^{\circ}C$. Flavor compounds identified from goat milk were acetone, ethylbutanoate, ethyl-3-methylbutyrate, ethyl-2-butenoate and ethylhexanoate, and those from cow milk were ethylbutanoate, acetone, 2-heptanone and acetoin. Flavor compounds detected from goat milk and cow milk yogurts were acetic acid, butanoic acid, butanol, diethylcarbinol, acetone, diacetyl, decane, 2-methyl-3-pentanone, hexanal, 2-heptanone, acetoin, benzaldehyde, dimethyldisulfide, and dimethyltrisulfide. In sensory evaluation, overall preference and texture values were higher in goat milk yogurt fermented by Str. thermophilus LFG than in cow milk yogurts and the yogurt fermented by mixed culture resulted in the highest score.

In this study, the quality characteristics of Topokkidduk, a traditional Korean rice cake, containing different amounts of garlic powder (0, 1, 3, 5, 7 w/w %) were investigated. The moisture content of Topokkidduk containing garlic ranged from 45.72~46.74% and was significantly higher than Topokkidduk in the absence of garlic. The Hunter color L value decreased with an increase in the amount of added garlic powder, whereas the a and b values increased. Texture analysis revealed that the hardness of uncooked Topokkidduk was significantly lower than Topokkidduk not containing garlic (p>0.05). The adhesiveness and springiness of both uncooked and cooked Topokkidduk did not vary significantly at the different garlic concentrations (p>0.05). The chewiness of Topokkidduk tended to decrease with an increase in the amount of added garlic powder. For the sensory evaluation, the intensity (color and flavor) and acceptability (color, flavor and taste) were lower for Topokkidduk containing 7% garlic powder than the other samples. The chewiness intensity was highest for Topokkidduk containing 1% and 3% garlic powder (p>0.05). The Topokkidduk containing no garlic powder and 3% garlic powder had the highest overall acceptability score (p>0.05).

Precooked powder of redbean porridge (RP) was prepared by the series of process extrusion, drying, milling and blending with a mixture of whole redbean flour and corn starch and others. The optimum process and quality of products for RP were investigated. After extrusion under the moisture content 24 to 26%, twin screw speed 350 rpm, extrusion temperature 150 to $155^{\circ}C$ and feed rate 60 kg/hr, the product had a higher quality with its natural redbean flavor/color. During the extrusion process, extrusion temperature and specific mechanical energy increased from 150 to $198^{\circ}C$ and from 134 to 144 kwh/ton respectively, as the amount of addition water decreased from 6 to 2 kg/hr. By the hot air drying of redbean extrudate (RE). it could be dried below to 4% moisture content, of which level considered as an optimal moisture content for anti-caking of the powdered product, at $80^{\circ}C$ for 4hrs and at $100^{\circ}C$ for 1.5 hrs respectively. In the sieve analysis of extrudate powder, when the product milled through a mesh size of 0.5 mm or 1.0 mm, about 80% or 65% of the feed was passed a 65 mesh screen respectively. Moisture absorption of final blended products was formed a cake under 100% of relative humidity after 13 hrs of storage. As the amount of RE powder reduced, the flavor score of products decreased by sensory evaluation of products prepared by the different ratio of RE powder, corn starch and sugar.

Shelf-life of pork packaged under $CO_{2}$ was observed and the optimal volume of $CO_{2}$ gas was determined. High gas barrier film, EVOH($CO_{2}$ permiability; 1 $cc/cm^{2}{\cdot}24\;h{\cdot}atm$) was used as packaging material and the volume ratios of sample to $CO_{2}$ of 1 : 1, 1 : 3 and 1 : 5 were tried using the control of vacuum packaged pork. To ev.3luate quality of pork cuts, total plate counts, TBA, color and sensory score were monitored during the storage at $4{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ for 31 days. TPC of vacuum packaged pork increased up to $4.6{\times}10^{6}\;CFU/cm^{2}$ in 24 days while that of $CO_{2}$ gas packaged pork $4.5{\times}10^{5}\;CFU/cm^{2}$ at the same storage period, and it took 7 days more for gas packaged pork to reach the same TPC count. There was no significant difference in TBA value between vacuum packaged and gas packaged pork. In the color L and a values were not affected by treatment but vacuum packaged pork cuts showed higher b value than gas packaged pork. According to sensory evaluation, gas packaged pork showed less off flavor, better flavor and freshness than vacuum packaged one (P<0.05).

Chicken patties and frankfurters were manufactured by varying the relative proportion of MDM to HDM as raw materials, and their palatability, shelf-life and textural properties were evaluated. The obtained results were as follows: 1. Chicken patty containing MDM slowed gradual increase in TBA value during frozen storage, but its storage up to g weeks presented no problems in flavor stability. 2. Color score and total palatability of chicken patty were best for the product containing 30% MDM. It was also concluded that MDM can be included in the patties up to 50% of total meat with good results, but more than 70% was not recommended. 3. The formulation of MDM up to 50% in frankfurter gave a quite satisfactory acceptability and textural properties compararable to frankfurter made of 100% HDM, but the inclusion of more than 70% MDM was not recommended. 4. The TBA value of frankfurter containg MDM did not increase to any great extent until 4 weeks of storage at $4^{\circ}C$, indicating no unique problems in flavor instability compared to regular frankfurter. 5. It was concluded that processed meat products such as patties and frankfurters containing MDM up to $30{\sim}35%$ of total meat ingredients gave satisfactory results in color, texture and palatability, comparable to regular products.
