Fermented milk was prepared from milk or mixture of milk and apple juice/grape juice, and it was freeze dried. pH change and growth of Lactobacillus acidophilus (KCTC 2182) during freeze drying were studied. The effects of freeze drying on sensory evaluation and volatile aroma compounds in freeze dried sample or reconstituted sample were also studied. Freezing and freeze drying did not affect pH of fermented milk. Number of viable cells of L. acidophilus was markedly reduced during freezing or freeze drying. When number of viable cells in original fermented milk was considered as 100%, survival ratio of viable cells after freezing was $64.5{\sim}85.2%$ and that after freeze drying was $10.0{\sim}21.1%$. When sensory properties of original fermented milk prepared from juice-milk (ratio 15:35) were compared with those of freeze dried/reconstituted sample, sensory properties of original sample were better than those of freeze dried/reconstituted sample. Ethanol, diacetyl, butanol and acetoin were detected in all of original samples and freeze dried/reconstituted samples while acetone was detected in samples containing high amount of grape juice. Volatile aroma compounds in original fermented milk were reduced during freeze drying. L. acidophilus produced ethanol, diacetyl and acetoin during fermentation.

Opuntia ficus-indica and Aloe vera slices were dried using 20, 30, and 40% polyethylene glycol (PEG) 4,000 as a dehydration agent, and the dried samples were compared with the hot-air dried and freeze dried in terms of rehydration ratio, color, and sensory evaluation. The moisture content of the PEG-treated samples decreased with increasing concentrations of polyethylene glycol. The rehydration ratio of the PEG-treated samples was better than those of the hot air-dried or freeze-dried samples. The color of the PEG-treated samples was similar to that of the freeze-dried samples and better than that of the hot air-dried samples. The sensory evaluation of PEG-treated samples was better than those of the hot air-dried or freeze-dried samples. These results suggest that dehydration of Opuntia ficus-indica and Aloe vera slices using PEG is very effective in terms of rehydration ratio and minimal damage of cell structure.

Green pepper was dried using 30%, 50%, or 80% maltodextrin as dehydrating agents, and the quality of the peppers was compared with that of freeze-dried and hot air-dried samples in terms of rehydration ratio, color, and sensory evaluation. The amount of moisture lost during drying increased with increasing concentrations of maltodextrin. The rehydration ratio of maltodextrin-treated pepper was greater than those of freeze-dried or hot air-dried peppers. The color of the 30% maltodextrin-treated green pepper was similar to that of freeze-dried pepper and better than that of hot air-dried pepper. On sensory evaluation of dried green peppers, maltodextrin-treated pepper scored better than did the freeze-dried or hot air-dried samples. These results suggest that drying of green pepper using maltodextrin is very efficient, because good rehydration capacity is retained and minimal cell destruction may be achieved.

This study was conducted to examine the effects of starch noodles (dangmyeon; SNs) with different starch sources and porcine intestines (PIs) with different pH on the rehydration stability of Korean blood sausage (sundae). Mungbean SN3 and PI3 (pH 9.18) showed significantly higher values of 80.69%-91.67% and 79.66%-80.98%, respectively, regardless of the drying methods (hot air, vacuum and freeze drying) (p<0.05). A number of larger pores were observed only in the cross-section of the freeze dried SN and PI through SEM. SN2 (potato starch) and PI3 (pH 9.18) showed lower expansion (⁎ΔL 6.90 mm) and higher expansion ratio (⁎ΔL 26.29 mm), respectively, after rehydration of freeze dried sample (p<0.05). From the application of SN2 (potato starch) and PI (0.5%-2.0% Na-pyrophosphate) to freeze dried sundae manufacturing, higher rehydration stability of more than 91.5% was obtained. These results suggested that potato SN and treatment of PI with Na-pyrophosphate is useful for desirable rehydration stability of freeze dried sundae.

To substitute fromzed and freeze-dried food for live food in the development of the artificial seedling production of bivalve larvae, the dietary value of live T. suecica was compared with those of freeze-dried T. suecica, frozed T. suecica, live T. suecica (50%)+frozen T. suecica (50%), and live T. suecica (50%)+freeze-dried T. suecica (50%) in the rearing of oyster (Crassotrea gigas) and hen clam (Mactra chinensis) larvae, and manila clam (Tapes philipninarum) spats. Oyster larvae fed live T. suecica showed the highest growth (shell hight $231.9^{\mu}$m) and survival rate (72.6%) and those fed freeze-dried T. suecica showed the lowest growth (shell height $168.9^{\mu}$m) and survival rate (35.3%). However, in the hen clam larvae, there were not significantly different among diet group in growth and survival rate. The small spats of manila clam fed live t. suecica or live T. suecica (50%)+freeze-dried T. suecica (50%) showed higher growth and survival rate than those fed other diet group. In the case of large spats of manila clam, live T. suecica and live T. suecica (50%)+frozen T. suecica (50%) showed better growht. But, survival rates were not different among diet groups. Dietary valuse of frozen and dried T. suecica were different on species and growth stage, and frozen and freeze-dried T. suecica can be partially used as substitute food for T. suecica live T. succica in shellfish hatchery.

The study was carried out to find the effect of freeze drying on the volatile organic components in garlic (Allium sativum L.). The volatile organic compounds from fresh and freeze dried garlic were extracted by simultaneous steam distillation and extraction (SDE) method and identified with GC/MS analysis. A total of 42 and 32 compounds were identified in fresh and freeze-dried garlic, respectively. Sulfur containing compounds in the garlic samples were detected as the major compounds, and alcohols, aldehydes and esters were detected as minor compounds. Diallyl disulfide, diallyl trisulfide, allyl methyl disulfide and ally1 methyl trisulfide were the main sulfur compounds in fresh and freeze dried garlic. The amount of sulfur containing compounds were decreased freeze-drying but methyl propyl trisulide, 3- allylthiopropionic acid, cyclopentyl ethyl sulfide etc. were increased. The others, non- sulfur containing compounds such as ethyl acetate, ethanol, 2-propenol, 2- propenal and hexanal were increased in freeze-dried garlic. Consequently, the total amount of volatile organic compounds in garlic became lower during freeze-drying from 853.42 mg/kg to 802.21 /kg, and the composition of major components were nearly same in fresh and freeze-dried garlic.

This study was designed to compare the physicochemical and nutritional properties between reconstituted milk samples made from freeze-dried milk powder (FDMP) and spray-dried milk powder (SDMP). Reconstituted milk (87%, wb) was made by combining FDMP or SDMP with water. In the color analysis, the $L^*$, $a^*$ and $b^*$ values of the reconstituted milk samples made from both powders were not significantly different from the control. The thiobarbituric acid values and short-chain free fatty acid concentrations were considerably greater in the reconstituted milk made from SDMP than in the milk made from FDMP. The quantities of water-soluble and fat-soluble vitamins in the reconstituted milk samples made from SDMP were significantly lower than those made from FDMP. Based on the findings obtained in the present study, the reconstituted milk made from FDMP appeared to be more resistant to lipid oxidation and exhibited little changes in the nutrients levels when compared with reconstituted milk made from SDMP.

To investigate biological activities in Aronia melanocarpa various drying methods were employed such as vacuum freeze drying, hot air drying and cold air drying. DPPH radical scavenging activity and ABTS radical scavenging activity of vacuum freeze dried Aronia melanocarpa was higher than hot and cold air dried Aronia melanocarpa. Vacuum freeze drying method showed the greatest contents of total phenol (15.34 g GAE/100 g), flavonoid (3.10 g GE/100 g) and tannin (2.46 g TE/100 g). Total anthocyanin content decreased to 163.52 mg C3G/100 g and 50.15 mg C3G/100 g for hot and cold air drying, respectively. Vacuum freeze-dried method increased the total anthocyanin content (743.09 mg C3G/100 g) when compared with fresh Aronia melanocarpa (163.52 mg C3G/100 g). Total proanthocyanidin content of vacuum freeze dried Aronia melanocarpa has increased to 6.21 g CE/100 g more than eight times compared with fresh Aronia melanocarpa (0.71 g CE/100 g). Chlorogenic acid and neochlorogenic acid content of vacuum freeze dried Aronia melanocarpa were higher than hot air dried and cold air dried Aronia melanocarpa, increasing about three times compared with fresh Aronia melanocarpa. These results suggested that vacuum freeze drying is optimal drying method to enhance biological activities in Aronia melanocarpa.

This experiment was designed to investigate the optimum conditions for the extraction of protein from the silkworm larvae by using the oven-dried and freeze-dried samples. The extractability was examined on the basis of kinds of extractants, ratio of sample to extractants, extraction time, temperature, and the effect of pH. The following results were obtained: (1) About 56% of proteins were extracted when 0.05M NaOH was used and the highest extractability was obtained at the ratio of 1 : 40 (sample: extractant). (2) The amount of nitrogen extracted was gradually increased when the extraction temperature was increased from $10^{\circ}C$ to $50^{\circ}C$ in both oven-dried and freeze-dried silkworm larvae. The highest amount of nitrogen was extracted at $50^{\circ}C$ in freeze-dried sample and at $60^{\circ}C$ in oven-dried sample. In addition, sixty min. of extraction time showed the highest extractability of nitrogen, however, not much difference in extractability was found after 10 min of extraction time. (3) More than 60% of nitrogens were extracted at pH 13.0, but less than 20% were extracted from pH 1.0 to 11.0. There was only slight difference in extractability of nitrogen between freeze-dried and oven-dried samples.

This study was observed the effects of drying methods on the extraction characteristics of Rubi fructus (fruits of Rubus coreanus). Extraction yields of soluble solids and total sugar were high in the Rubi fructus dried by freeze drying, followed by infrared drying and sun drying. Extraction yield of phenolic compounds and DPPH radical-scavenging activity of extracts were in the following order; the Rubi fructus dried by freeze drying, the Rubi fructus dried by infrared drying, the Rubi fructus dried by sun drying. L value was the highest in the Rubi fructus dried by freeze drying, and a and b value were lowest in the fruit dried by freeze drying. These results suggest that freeze drying has an beneficial effect to enhance the quality of Rubi fructus. Water and ethanol extractions was more effective in the extraction of soluble solids and the antioxidative components.
