This study was conducted in order to investigate the effects of maesil extract on medium and cake flour using the falling number and RVA tests, as well as farinography, and alveography. The maesil extract were added on the medium and cake flour bases, 3% and 5% each. The falling numbers of the medium and cake flour with maesil extract were increased due to alteration of the protein in the flour. Analysis of the RVA characteristics showed that the addition of maesil extract did not have a significant effect on the initial pasting temperature. Peak viscosity, holding strength, final viscosity, and the breakdown and setback values of the medium flour were not consistent, but those of the cake flour decreased. Farinography demonstrated that the addition of maesil extract decreased water absorption and improved the stability of the medium and cake flour. The characteristics of the alveogram showed that the addition of maesil extract increased the extensibility and swelling index. Based on the experimental data, the processing rheology may be good when using maesil extract to make yellow layer cake.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of trehalose on the rheological properties of bread flour dough. Farinographic and viscographic properties, pH, total titratable acidity (TTA), and fermentation power were analyzed for flour dough rheology. Flour dough containing trehalose showed greater water absorption capacity and longer development time. However the stability, degree of softening, and farinograph quality number (FQN) were lower for the trehalose-containing flour dough, however, these factors decreased with increasing amounts of trehalose. Trehalose did not affect the beginning of gelatinization temperature and maximum viscosity temperature of flour. The maximum viscosity was the lowest with 6% trehalose, the end of final holding period, breakdown and setback values decreased with increasing amounts of trehalose. Flour dough with 4% trehalose had the lowest pH value for 120 min fermentation at $30^{\circ}C$, and the highest TTA value. Addition of 4% and 6% trehalose showed larger fermentation volume of dough than the control. The results suggested that trehalose positively affected the rheological properties of flour dough such as bread volume, softness, and staling delay.

To establish an optimum formula for processing wet noodles with steam-dried Hizikia fusiformis flour(SHF), it was incorporated into wheat flour by the ratio of 0, 1, 3, 5, 10 and 20% based on a flour weight. Application of 2% mehthylcelluose(MC) to improve the texture of noodles mixed with SHF was also attempted. Evaluation was performed on the dough rheology and wet noodle quality, such as cooking characteristics, mechanical texture properties, sensory value and shelf-life. Water absorption rate of the composite flour increased linearly as the content of SHF increased from 1% to 10%, and noodle sheet-formation was also acceptable in the same content level. The weight and volume of cooked noodles were decreased, and turbidity of soup was, if exceeding more than 5% of SHF, increased constantly. However, these problems could be remarkably resolved in SHF plus 2% MC. Texture profile analysis of cooked noodles showed an increase of hardness, gumminess, and chewiness up to 5% SHF. The results of sensory evaluation showed that cooked noodles containing 5% SDF were acceptable as much as wheat four noodles in terms of color, texture, taste and flavor. Based on cooking properties, rheological and sensory evaluation, addition of 5% SHF plus 2% MC was suggested to be suitable for making wet noodles, of which the shelf-life was estimated to be 8 days at $5^{\circ}C$.

The effects of replacement of wheat flour with 10, 20, and 30% chestnut flour on the bread-making properties and quality characteristics of bread were evaluated. Among the physical characteristics of the dough, the development time in the farinogram decreased with increasing amounts of chestnut flour, and the dough stability and durability were reduced. In the amylogram, there was a slight increase in the gelatinization starting temperature when compared to the control flour, but the maximum viscosity gradually decreased in response to increasing amounts of chestnut flour. The expansion ratio did not increase in the dough containing 20 or 30% chestnut flour. Moreover, the loaf volume and specific volume of bread containing 20 and 30% chestnut flour were smaller than those of the control and the 10% treatment. The hardness of bread containing 10% chestnut flour($700g/cm^2$) was lower than that of the other treatments($1413-1,627g/cm^2$). Furthermore, bread containing 10% chestnut flour had denser porous structures than the other treatments. The sensory evaluation tests revealed that the 10% treatment had higher sensory scores for the internal and external qualities of bread than the other treatments.

With the development of concrete technology, producing concrete products that have the ability to flow under their own weights and do not need internal or external vibrations is an important achievement. In this study, assessments are made on using travertine, marble and limestone rock flours in self-compacting lightweight concrete (SCLC). In fact, the effects of these powders on plastic and hardened phases of SCLC are studied. To address this issue, concrete mixtures with water to cementitious materials ratios of 0.42 and 0.45 were used. These mixtures were made with 0 and 10% silica fume (SF) replacement levels by cement weight. To achieve lightweight concrete, lightweight expanded clay aggregate (Leca) with the bulk density of about $520kg/m^3 $was utilized. Also two kinds of water were consumed involving tap water and magnetic water (MW) for investigating the possible interaction of MW and rock flour type. In this study, 12 mixtures were studied, and their specific weights were in the range of $1660-1692kg/m^3$. To study the mixtures in plastic phase, tests such as slump flow, J-ring, V-funnel and U-box were performed. By using marble and travertine powders instead of limestone flour, the plastic viscosities and rheology were not changed considerably and they remained in the range of regulations. Moreover, SCLC showed better compressive strength with travertine, and then with marble rock flours compared to limestone powders. According to the results of the conducted study, MW showed better performance in both fresh and hardened phases in all the mixes, and there was no interaction between MW and rock flour type.

This study involved the making of sugar snap cookies with the addition of carrot powder at two to twelve percent which furnishes modern people with much lacking and needed dietary fiber. The review of the physiochemical properties, rheology and sensory evaluation of such contents resulted in the following findings: The sedimentation value and Pelshenke value all decreased in weak flour with the addition of more carrot powder, in comparison with the control group. The water retention capacity (WRC) and alkaline water retention capacity (AWRC) all increased in weak flour with the addition of more carrot powder in comparison with the control group. As for the gelatinization properties of the test samples measured by rapid visco-analysis, the addition of more carrot powder resulted in the initial pasting temperatures increasing in the case of weak flour, yet showing no significant difference between the control group and the carrot-added groups, as well as the maximum viscosity, minimum viscosity and final viscosity all showed the tendency of decreasing. The addition of more carrot powder led to the peak times in the mixographs for weak flour all exhibiting the tendency of decreasing, which might be interpreted as gradually weaker physical properties of the dough as well as less stability in the shape of the dough in turn.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of wheat germ on medium flour using falling number and RVA tests, as well as farinogram and rheofermentometer analyses. The wheat germ was added to the medium flour on a 3, 5, and 7% basis. Falling numbers increased with increasing amounts of wheat germ. Analysis of the RVA characteristics showed that the wheat germ additions did not have significant effects on the initial pasting temperature. In the farinogram, water absorption decreased with an increasing amount of wheat germ. Also, development time was longest in the control group and shortest in the group with the highest addition of wheat germ. The results of the effects of added wheat germ on fermentation by rheofermentometer analysis showed that the H'm value reached a maximum height at 3%. Finally, the volume of $CO_2$ lost was increased whereas the retention coefficient was decreased.

The effects of green tea powder (GTP) on the rheological properties of dough and gelatinization characteristics were evaluated by farinograph, extensograph, amylograph and DSC. The flours used were high strength flour (HF: 12.5% protein) and blend of 50% high strength flour and 50% low strength flour (HLF: 10.5% protein). As the amount of GTP increased, water absorption, development time and weakness of the dough decreased for both flours, but dough stability increased only for HLF; the extension of the dough decreased but the resistance to extension increased. The pasting temperature increased and maximum viscosity decreased. On the other hand, with the addition of green tea extract to the wheat starch, transition onset temperature, transition peak temper-ature and enthalpy decreased, demonstrating that catechins in green tea facilitate the starch crystal melting.

Wet noodles were prepared with wheat flour and mushroom powder (oyster and oak mushrooms), and effects of added mushroom powders on dough rheology and wet noodle quality were examined. Particle size distribution of mushroom powder ranged from 0.04 to $500\;{\mu}m$, which was different from that of wheat flour. The initial pasting temperature in amylograph, and the water absorption and the dough development time in farinograph increased with the increase of mushroom powder. The peak and final viscosities in amylograph, and dough stability in farinograph decreased with the increase of mushroom powder. Decrease of L value and increase of a and b values were shown with the increase of mushroom powder in wheat flour-mushroom powder composite as well as wet noodles. The cooked weight and volume of cooked noodles were decreased, but the turbidity of soup were increased with the addition of mushroom powder. Most of texture parameters (hardness, cohesiveness, chewiness and cutting force) of cooked noodles decreased with the addition of oyster mushroom powder, but increased with the addition of oak mushroom powder. From the result of sensory evaluation, wet noodles containing 3% oyster mushroom powder and 5% oak mushroom powder were rated as high quality wet noodles.
