The objective of this study was to observe the interactions between salt-soluble proteins extracted from beef and elephant foot yam (Amorphophallus campanulatus) flour in heat-induced gel matrix development. The effect of salt concentration; 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, and 2.0% in weight/weight basis (w/w), during protein extraction on pH, salt-soluble protein concentration and myofibril fractions of beef extract was determined firstly, and no significant effect was found. The beef salt-soluble proteins extracted using salt solution at different concentrations were then added with elephant foot yam flour at 5%, 10%, and 15% w/w, gelatinized at 90℃ for 20 min, and cooled down at 4℃ for 12 h. The interactions between beef salt-soluble proteins and elephant foot yam flour resulted in an improved gel strength (p < 0.01) and the addition level of elephant foot yam flour affected the pH, instrumental color, moisture, crude protein, and ash content significantly. The addition of elephant foot yam flour also reduced the size of the pores in the gel matrix as shown by scanning electron microscope (SEM) photographs. These suggest that elephant foot yam flour well interacts with beef salt-soluble proteins to form gel matrix.

In this study, the alkiline water washing condition of mackerel(Scomber japonicus) dark meat was investigated to improve processing conditions of red muscle fish meat paste heating gel. Chemical alkaline water(CWM) and electrolytic alkiline water(EWM, pH 12) were used for washing the mackerel raw meat. Washed meats were minced with 2.5% salt and heated at $90^{\circ}C$/15 min to testing texture profile analysis. Moisture of CWM and EWM was increased with both washing times(p<0.05). Crude lipids and protiens were decreased with washing times. Lightness of chemical alkaline water washed mackerel heated paste gel(CWHPG) was higher than electrolytic alkaline water washed mackerel heated paste gel(EWHPG). Redness and yellowness were more decreased than control meats. Jelly strength of CWHPG and EWHPG was not increased more than 2 times wased meat and was increased with protein decrease. Texture profile analysis, max force1 of CWHPG and EWHPG was higher hardeness than the control meat except gel strains. From these results, it could be suggested that electric alkialine water washing is also effective in advance the red meat paste heating gel process of kamaboko industry.

Acrylate polymer gel electrolytes containing N-methoxymethyl-N-methylpyrrolidium bis (trifluoro - methansulfonyl) imide (MPSI) as an ionic liquid were synthesized by solution polymerization in the presence of carbonate solvent. ionic conductivity and mechanical properties of the polymer gel electrolytes were investigated by impedance analyzer and universal testing machine as a function of the amount of polymer, and ionic liquid and type of crosslinker. The maximum ionic conductivity of polymer gel electrolytes was 0.8 mS/cm at $25^{\circ}C$ with 15 wt% of polymer, 30 wt% of ionic liquid and 5 wt% of crosslinker. The mechanical analysis showed that the tensile strength of polymer gel electrolytes increased with additional polymer contents and had the maximum value of 0.5 MPa with a reasonable ionic conductivity.

Studies were carried out to investigate formation of Mook and its physical properties as well as the effects of amylose and amylopectin on the texture of Mook which were made from cowpea, mung bean, acorn, buckwheat, kidney bean, potato, rice, corn and wheat starches. Texture parameters of 10% starch gels were significantly different depending on the kind of starches. However, there were no significant differences in those of gels of starches commonly used for the preparation of mook. It was appeared that gel indices of cowpea, mung bean, acorn and buckwheat starch gels were in the range of 2.11-2.37, elastic limits were more than 0.60, gel strength coefficients were in the range of 700-1400 and brittlnesses were 0.23-0.62. It was also appeared that gel index and elastic limit were affected by amylopectin and gel strength coefficient and brittleness, by amylose, and that these two fractions were not able to form gel like Mook unless they were combined with proper proportion. Effect of addition of amylose from cereal and potato starches to cowpea starch or cowpea amylopectin were different from that of cowpea amylose. When cereal starches were supplemented by cowpea starches, gel strength coefficients and brittlenesses of their gels were increased, but gel indices and elastic limits were not changed. However, potato starch gel was improved to be similar to Mook with increasing of gel strength coefficient and appearance of brittleness by addition of cowpea amylose.

Hydrogels from a mixture of poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP), ${\kappa}$-carrageenan and microorganism fermentation celluose were prepared by $^{60}Co$ gamma-ray irradiation. PVP and ${\kappa}$-carrageenan were mixed with the different ratios. Microorganism fermentation celluose were added to the mixture of PVP and ${\kappa}$-carrageenan to evaluate the effect of microorganism fermentation celluose on the gel strength. The gel strength of the hydrogel was evaluated for application of a wound dressing. The results showed that gelation and gel strength were increased with increasing the content of the microorganism fermentation celluose.

After producing 4 kinds of hydrogel materials by mixing the composite preparation in Gardeniae Fructus extracts with ketorolac tromethamine, which is NSAIDs (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs), through the experiment of measurement in the tensile strength, in the skin permeation, and in the periodontal-pocket reduction rate, the following conclusions were obtained. 1. The tensile strength of a drug indicated the tensile strength 3.5-fold higher compared to the control group, in KGH gel B. 2. The skin-permeation volume in ketorolac tromethamine was highest with $105.62{\mu}m/cm^2$ in KGH gel B for 8 hours, and the permeation volume in geniposide was relatively high with $73.8{\mu}m/cm^2$ in KGE gel A, but the permeation volume in genipin, which is the hydrolysis, represented the highest permeation amount with $50.17{\mu}m/cm^2$ in KGH gel B. 3. In terms of the periodontal-pocket reduction rate, after 4 weeks, KGE gel A showed the falling rate of 23.85% compared to the control group, but did not indicate the significant difference, and KGH gel B represented the reduction rate of 29.46% compared to the control group, thus it indicated the significantly treatment effect.

This study was carried out to investigate gel forming and degradation properties (suwari and modori phenomena) of chicken surimi from mechanically deboned chicken meat (MDCM) at various setting temperatures and time. Chicken surimi was manufactured by a continuous process including chopping of MDCM, washing with 5% NaCl solution or pure water, standing, straining and centrifuging etc. Total process of washing for the MDCM from chopping to centrifuging was repeated over 3 cycles. Gel from prepared surimi were formed at $90^{\circ}C$ for 30 min after various setting treatments. The textural properties of gels were measured at the temperature ranges of low (10$^{\circ}C$), medium (25$^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$) and high (45 to 70$^{\circ}C$). The compressive force (CF), hardness and fracturability of surimi gel at 10$^{\circ}C$ increased as setting time increased, and showed the highest value at 30 h of setting time. The CF and hardness of chicken surimi gel at 25$^{\circ}C$ and 30$^{\circ}C$ showed the highest values at 10 h of setting time. Most of gel strengths including CF, and texture profile analysis (TPA) values showed the highest levels in the range 47.5 to 52.5$^{\circ}C$ (p<0.05). The gel strength at 60$^{\circ}C$ increased slightly at 30 min, but then continued to decrease with longer setting times. There was no increase of gel strength at $70^{\circ}C$, but only a continuous decrease over setting time. In conclusion, suwari (gel setting) and modori (gel degradation) phenomena occur during the gel formation of surimi from MDCM. The temperature range in chicken surimi was 47.5 to 52.5$^{\circ}C$ for suwari and 60 to 70$^{\circ}C$ for modori.

Optimum reaction conditions for gel formation of rapeseed, Brassica napus, protein catalyzed by microbial TGase(transglutaminase) were evaluated by measuring breaking strength and deformation of gel. The polymerization of the protein gel was ascertained by SDS-PAGE and content of GL crosslinking$[{\varepsilon}-({\gamma}-glutamyl)lysine]$. In the reaction between rapeseed protein and TGase at $45^{\circ}C$ for 60 min, the breaking strength and deformation of the gel was the maximum at the ratio of 1 : 40 of enzyme to substrate. 10%(w/v) of rapeseed protein concentrate was optimum for gel production. The maximum breaking strength and deformation was shown at $45^{\circ}C$ The breaking strength increased linearly up to 90 min of the reaction time and remained unchanged. The breaking strength and deformation by TGase treatment was pH dependent and pH 7 was optimum for 10% rapeseed protein solution. SDS-PAGE analysis indicated that new band of highmolecular polymers were formed by the enzyme reaction, with disappearing the original bands of rapeseed protein. According to HPLC analysis. the content of GL crosslinking was increased from 0 to $7.14\;{\mu}mol/g$ gel for 90 min of the reaction time.

Properties of dry milled rice flours made of paddy with different moisture content (12.6, 18.4 and 24.4%) were compared with those of wet milled rice flour. Among dry milled rice flour, the higher moisture content of paddy the finer particle size and the more distinct shape of starch were observed. As the moisture content of paddy increased, L (lightness) value and water absorption index of rice flour were increased, while setback in amylogram and water soluble index were decreased. Lower gel consistency and gel strength were found in dry milled rice flours than in wet milled rice flour, while no significant difference was found among dry milled rice flours. Enthalpy for melting crystalline of retrograded gels was higher in dry milled rice flours made of paddy with 24.4% moisture content than in other dry milled rice flours. Wet milled rice flour had lower retrogradation enthalphy than dry milled rice flours.
