The potentialities of 3D printing technology are discussed from technical and research-oriented perspectives for industrial manufacturing of a variety of food products. Currently, 3D printing technology has advanced to enable us to process or cook innovative foods. However, food-based materials for 3D printing are still limited in terms of eating qualities, nutritional values and functionality as well as industrial production. Therefore, this uprising issue on alternative food processing techniques especially focused on the exploration of new food materials combined with these 3D printing technologies needs to be re-spotlighted, and then solved to pave the way to this innovative and sensational area of investigation with more accessibility. In this review, previous research work and industrial applications conducted by frontier research groups in this field are covered, then to open discussion for future research on the 3D printing of food.

This study was to establish irradiation process for serving ginseng chicken porridge to immune-compromised patients. Raw chicken, glutinous rice, ginseng, garlic, dried jujube and carrot were used as raw materials for ginseng chicken porridge. The initial level of microorganisms contaminated in raw materials and their predominant species were determined. The level of microorganism detected in raw chicken and in ginseng were 3.4 Log CFU/g and 4.7 Log CFU/g, respectively. Major predominant microorganisms were Pseudomonas fragi in chicken, Enterobactor faecalis in carrot, and Bacillus subtilis in other materials. Chicken and carrot were excluded from irradiation treatment because ordinary thermal treatment can inactivate the microorganisms contaminated in those materials. Five kGy of gamma ray was the effective sterilizing dose required to inactivate B. subtilis in glutinous rice, garlic and jujube, and 10 kGy in ginseng. Ginseng chicken porridge was prepared with each of raw materials gamma-irradiated with the selected sterilizing doses. Control was ginseng chicken porridge prepared with non-irradiated materials. The growth of microorganisms was not observed in the chicken porridge prepared with irradiated raw materials. Sensory results showed that the score of flavor and off-flavor was slightly lower in ginseng chicken porridge prepared with irradiated raw materials than in control. This was considered to be due to the increase of TBARS values by gamma irradiation. However, there was no significant difference on overall acceptance between the porridge prepared with irradiated raw materials and control. The results showed that the individual gamma irradiation of raw materials can be applied to prepare ginseng chicken porridge as meals for the immunocompromised patients.

Caking has been a serious problem in food, feed, pharmaceutical, and related industries, where dry powdered materials are produced and/or utilized. Caking of dry food powders occurs when water is redistributed or absorbed by the powders during processing and storage. The powders become sticky when their surfaces are mobilized by water, resulting in inter-particle binding, formation of clusters, and inter-particle fusion, which lead to caking. As a result of caking, the solubility of the powdered materials may decrease, lipid oxidation and enzymatic activity may increase, and sensory qualities such as flavor and crispness may deteriorate. Caking may also lead to microbial growth. For consumers, caking of powder products is a sign of poor quality and possible food safety problems. This paper provides a review of factors affecting caking, caking mechanisms, and analysis of caking based on previous studies.

Listeria monocytogenes is a major concern in food processing environments because it is ubiquitous and can easily contaminate food during processing. Contaminated food and the surfaces in food facilities can serve as reservoirs of L. monocytogenes, which can lead to the serious foodborne illness listeriosis in consumers. L. monocytogenes can adhere to materials commonly used in food processing equipment and form biofilms. In the biofilm mode, L. monocytogenes is significantly more resistant to disinfection or sanitizers than its planktonic counterparts. Many researchers have studied the effects of surface materials on bacterial adhesion and the formation of biofilms. Recent studies have focused on preventing the establishment of L. monocytogenes in niches in the food plant environments.

There are many possibilities that recycled papers adulterate contaminants during the process. The objective of this research was to evaluate safety of paper-based packaging materials for food, especially commercial pizza boxes in Korea. Ultimately, we compared recycled and non-recycled commercial paper packaging materials. This study was based on Korean Food and Drug Administration (KFDA) regulation. PCBs were measured by GC-ECD. Arsenic and lead were analyzed using an ICP-MS. Formaldehyde was determined by LC-MS. Fluorescent materials were detected by UV lamp. The result of this study shows that non-recycled paper packaging materials meets all the tested hygienic specifications for food packaging materials, whereas recycled paper-based paperboard box may be contaminated by fluorescent whitening agent. Though these results need to be further studied, it is recommended to avoid using recycled paper in direct contact with food when used in food packaging.

Determination of PFOS in instant food packing materials by LC-MS/MS was developed. The procedure involves an extraction of the Food Packing Materials with 100% methanol soxcelet extraction method. The LC separation was performed by Hypersil Gold ($150mm{\times}2.1mm$ 5 um) with mobile phases of 2 mM amoniumacetate solution and acetonitrile. The Mass spectral acquisition was done in negative ESI/SRM using the TSQ Quantum Ultra. With this method, good linear relationship, sensitivity and reproducibility were obtained. The rate of recoveries of PFOS from paper material spiked with 1.0 ug/L were 99.84%, respectively. The limit of quantitation and limit of detection were below 0.03 ug/L and 0.009 ug/L. The method had been applied to determination of PFOS in instant food packing materials.

The purpose of this study was to investigate dietitians' needs of teaching materials about nutrition education for school children in Kyonggi and Chungnam(including Daejeon) areas. This study was carried out using questionnaires via e-mail or in class to the subjects of 166 elementary school dietitians as 68 in Kyonggi and 98 in Chungnam. The number of small(less than 700 meals), medium(700-1400 meals) and large(over 1400 meals) schools based on served meals daily were 48, 62 and 56, respectively. The results are as follows: Frequency of nutrition education for students as well as for teachers was samely very low as 'once per two months' and the education used to perform during lunch time mostly. For preparing nutrition education they obtained informations from the internet(64.0%). The main topics of nutrition education they used to covered were 'et's eat breakfast', 'table manners', 'the relations of body and nutrients', 'food waste', 'foods and calorie', etc.. The largest limit of nutrition education practices faced by school dietitians were pointed out as 'lacks of teaching materials' and 'counseling techniques'. Most dietitians wanted CD or substantial teaching materials for the practices, and required their contents covering 'cooking', 'food and calories', 'let’s eat various foods', 'relations of body and nutrients', 'regular meal is important’ and etc.. Since we expect nutrition teachers to be realized soon, nutrition education/counseling is emphasized more as their duty. Even though school dietitians revealed poor self-confidence, they were positive to get improved by reeducation of nutrition counseling methods and skills. If easy and suitable education materials(CD type) are developed as good as the school dietitians desired, the materials could contribute much to better nutrition education/counseling practices at schools.

The HACCP (hazard analysis critical control point) concept becomes an important aspect of Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) in safe food production. The HACCP plan was developed with food safety objective. The authors already carried out hazards analysis on Changran Jeotgal manufacturing process in a previous report. In this study we developed a HACCP plan on the manufacturing process of Changran Jeotgal. We could decide two CCPs those were salt concentration and eliminations of foreign materials before packaging. Foreign materials should be certainly checked out with laser detector just before packaging. Salt should be maintained more than $8\%$ to inhibit pathogenic bacteria in end product. On the Jeotgal process free water is removed after salting and Jeotgal is seasoned with several subsidiary materials such as com syrup. In result end products have $8\%$ salt with water activity 0.82. Most bacteria are inhibited but some can live in this condition. Materials on the working may be contaminate by pathogens, chemicals or physical hazards. It will be decreased by SSOP (standard sanitary operating program). The SSOP needed in Jeotgal plants is nearly same as other general food manufacturing plants but essential to fulfill HACCP program.
