In this study, we sought to investigate the various characteristics of Salmonella spp. isolated from raw chicken meats available in Korean markets. The data collected, such as food source of isolation, sampling information, serotype, virulence, and genetic profile including sequence type, were registered in the database for further comparative analysis of the strains isolated from the traceback investigation samples. To characterize serotype, virulence and gene sequences, we examined 113 domestically distributed chicken meat samples for contamination with Salmonella spp. Phylogenetic analysis was conducted on 24 strains (21.2%) of Salmonella isolated from 113 commercially available chicken meats and by-products, using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and multilocus sequence typing (MLST). Serotyping of the isolated Salmonella spp. revealed S. Enteritidis in 11 strains (45.8%), S. Virchow in 6 strains (25%), S. Montevideo in 2 strains (8.3%), S. Bsilla in 2 strains (8.3%), S. Bareilly in 1 strain (4.2%), S. Dessau in 1 strain (4.2%), and S. Albany in 1 strain (4.2%). The genetic correlation indicated that 24 isolated strains were classified into 18 clusters with a genetic similarity of 64.4-100% between them. Eleven isolated S. Enteritidis strains were classified into 9 genotypes with a sequence identity of 74.4%, whereas the most distantly related S. Virchow was divided into five genotypes with 85.9% identity. Here, the MLST analysis indicated that the major Sequence Type (ST) of the Salmonella spp. isolated from domestic chicken sold in Chungcheong Province belongs to the ST 11 and 16, which differs from the genotype of Salmonella isolated from imported chicken. The differential sequence characteristics can be a genetic marker for identifying causative bacteria for epidemiological investigations of food poisoning.

Global meat consumption is increasing worldwide, however, supply remains lacking. Several alternative protein sources, such as cultured meat, plant-based protein production, and edible insects, have been proposed to overcome this shortage. Interestingly, edible insects are characterized by superior digestive and absorptive qualities that make them the ideal replacement for traditional protein production. This study aims to further the processing ability of insect protein by investigating the effects of various pre-treatment methods, such as blanching (HB), roasting (HR), and superheated steam (HS), on the nutritional properties and physicochemical characteristics of proteins extracted from Hermetia illucens larvae. The drying rate, pH value, color analysis, amino and fatty acid profile, as well as bulk density, shear force, and rehydration ratios of the above pre-treatment methods, were explored. HS was found to have the highest drying rate and pH value analysis showed that HB and HS samples have significantly higher values compared to the other modalities. Raw edible insects had the highest value in the sum of essential amino acid (EAA) and EAA index when compared to EAAs. HB and HS showed significantly lower bulk density results, and HS showed the highest shear force and the highest value in rehydration ratio, regardless of immersion time. Therefore, taking the above results together, it was found that blanching and superheated steam blanching pre-treatment were the most effective methods to improve the processing properties of H. illucens after hot-air drying.

The study examined the physico-chemical properties and sensory characteristics of injeolmi when sugar was substituted to sugar alcohol such as sorbitol and xylitol. The moisture content, crude protein content, crude fat content, crude ash content, energy value, redness, water activity, hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness were not significantly different between the control with sugar and treatments with the sugar alcohol group (p>0.05). The lowest sugar content of injeolmi was observed in the treatment with sorbitol (T1). The adhesiveness of control was higher than that in treatment with sugar alcohol (p<0.05), but control had the lowest springiness (p<0.05). Although the sensory characteristics on color, flavor, tenderness did not show any statistical significance, the sweetness and the overall acceptability were the best in control and T5 group, which replaced sugar to 100% xylitol (p<0.05). The results of this study show that substitution by xylitol improved quality characteristics in injeolmi.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of kimchi powder levels (0, 1, 2, and 3%) and pork skin (5%) on the quality characteristics of liver sausages. The additions of the kimchi powder and pork skin improved the color, cooking yield, and sensory properties of the sausages. The addition of the pork skin and increasing concentrations of the kimchi powder significantly increased cooking yields. The moisture and protein contents of the sausages made with kimchi powder and pork skin were higher than those of the control (p<0.05). Due to the low pH of the kimchi powder, the pH values of the batter and sausages with added kimchi powder were lower than those of the treatment without kimchi powder (p<0.05). The control had the lowest hardness, gumminess, and chewiness values (p<0.05). For the sensory attributes of the samples, color, flavor, juiciness, and overall acceptability were higher in the treatments made with kimchi powder than in the treatments without kimchi powder, in which the treatment with 2% kimchi powder had the highest overall acceptability (p<0.05). In conclusion, the additions of kimchi powder and pork skin improved the quality characteristics of liver sausages.

Quality evaluation for food and agricultural products have always been one of the most elusive problems associated with the handling , processing and marketing in a food plant production. In order to detect physical foreign materials in food and agricultural products, non-destructive techniques have been developed for many years. Application of X-ray system to detect physical foreign materials in food and agricultural products could be considered to be a high potential method. Especially , it is impossible to detect internal physical foreign materials by visual inspections. In this study, it was tried to be applied for two different X-ray devices. Soft X-ray system with CdTe sensor and X-ray CT scanner were evaluated for advantage of the detection of non-meltallic foreign materials in food and agricultural products . Though the soft X-ray is not a high energy radiation, it is possible to detect small different density in a material. The CdTe sensor has a high resolution for t e soft X-ray energy region. The density characteristics of foods and foreign material were expressed region. The density characteristics of foods and foreign materials were expressed as a soft X-ray energy spectrum. The energy spectrum was analyzed by a personal computer with a multi-channel analyzer. X-ray CT scanner can provide visual image and analyze by three dimensional information inside food and agricultural products. The X-ray CT scanner using as a medical equipment was used to detect a foreign material. The density characteristics of food and foreign materials in food were tried to be detected by the threshold value on the basis of the CT numbers. The soft X-ray absorption characteristics for acrylin plates and distilled water were obtained and could be found the possibility of detecting a small physical foreign materials such as a plastic wrapping film , a stone and grasshopper in food and agricultural products.

Purpose: Physicochemical and microbiological qualities were investigated to compare quality characteristics of traditional with commercial soy sauce (Ganjang). Methods: Nineteen traditional products were collected from six provinces and three commercial products were purchased in domestic markets. The proximate composition, inorganic substance contents, viable bacteria, and chromaticity of the soy sauces were measured. Results: Although concentrations of crude fat and protein were not significantly different between traditional and commercial Ganjang, the moisture concentration of commercial soy sauce was significantly higher than in traditional Ganjang (p<0.05). However, the amount of ash in commercial soy sauce was significantly lower than in traditional Ganjang (p<0.05). Total nitrogen concentrations of traditional and commercial Ganjang were 0.50-1.59% and 0.86-1.26%, respectively. Concentrations of Na, Mg, K, Ca, Li, B, Fe, and Sr in traditional Ganjang were significantly higher than in the commercial products (p<0.05). The number of total bacteria in traditional and commercial Ganjang were $3.3{\times}10^1-6.4{\times}10^7CFU/mL$ and $5.5{\times}10^1-2.0{\times}10^3CFU/mL$, respectively. Bacillus cereus were below 10,000 CFU/mL in all samples, and Staphylococcus aureus was not detected. Fungi was not detected in 13 samples of traditional Ganjang and the three samples of commercial soy sauce. Although lightness, redness, and yellowness were not significantly different among the Ganjang, G10 was had the highest values (p<0.05). Conclusion: This research provided information about the quality characteristics of traditional and commercial Ganjang.

The effects of dietary fiber extracted from pumpkin (pumpkin fiber) on physicochemical properties, textural properties, and sensory characteristics of chicken frankfurters were investigated. Chicken frankfurter was supplemented with pumpkin fiber at levels of 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4%. Adding different levels of pumpkin fiber affected the proximate composition of the chicken frankfurters (p<0.05), except for protein content. In addition of different levels of pumpkin fiber influenced the physicochemical and textural properties of the chicken frankfurters (p<0.05). The yellowness, viscosity, and hardness were higher in chicken frankfurters samples containing pumpkin fiber than those in the control (p<0.05). The results showed that chicken frankfurter samples with higher pumpkin fiber levels had lower lightness values (p<0.05), as well as less cooking loss, emulsion stability, and lower color scores (p<0.05) compared to those control without pumpkin fiber treatment. The chicken frankfurters with 2% and 3% pumpkin fiber had higher overall acceptability than that of the control (p<0.05). The results show that adding pumpkin fiber produced acceptable chicken frankfurters and improved their quality characteristics.

When we looked at the seasonal food dregs of the eastern side of gangwondo, gangneung city's summer and winter food dregs showed 25.9 and 25.8% respectively due to the presence of beach areas and ski resorts. Sokcho city showed 28.12% in summer and yangyang gun's summer food dregs showed 40.2%. Yangyang gun's august food dregs showed 2.7 times larger than annual average amount. Outlook density showed regional characteristics. Data showed that food dregs' amount rate has been reduced gradually from 2005 because of the prohibition of direct filling up. As a result of compositions analysis, the eastern side of gangwondo's water fraction of living dregs were lower than that of chuncheon city where is located at the gangwondo's inland area. chuncheon city's data showed residential areas 53.5%, community areas 56.8% and commercial areas 55.6%. These discrepancies caused by the characteristics of dregs discharge type and climate. The caloric value of dregs has been increased incrementally after the ban of food dregs' direct filling up. Therefore, heating value of the dregs exceeds the existing furnace design spec and it can cause high caloric value problems, so we need additional research to solve these problems.

We investigated the quality characteristics and resulting sensory evaluation of semi-dried silver pomfret treated with high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) processing and brining for 14 days at 4 and $10^{\circ}C$ to evaluate the effects of treatment with HHP processing. HHP treatment and brining could cause compaction of fibers and the space between muscle. The G' values of all samples were higher than the G" values and the tan ${\delta}$ values of the tissue ranged from 0.222 to 0.251 with no further changes observed during storage. HHP treatment and brining significantly increased the total color difference, and the HHP and brine-treated group scored significantly higher than the others in terms of sensory evaluation. HHP treatment combined with brining could have a significant effect on the quality characteristics of the semi-dried products and their storage stability, and it is suggested from the results that they may have the potential to satisfy the requirements to produce commercially marketable food grade products.
