This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of ${\beta}$-glucan on rheological properties of flour dough and quality characteristics of white pan bread. Flour dough and white pan bread fortified with ${\beta}$-glucans at levels of 0%, 3%, 6% and 9% w/w. Farinograph and amylograph were analysed for the rheological properties. Loaf volume and specific loaf volume, moisture content, texture and sensory evaluation were also analysed for the quality characteristics. In the farinograph test, water absorption and dough development time of doughs increased with increasing ${\beta}$-glucan content. Especially, water absorption of dough fortified with 9% of ${\beta}$-glucan showed 13% higher than the control. However, the addition of ${\beta}$-glucan to the dough decreased stability. There were no significant differences on gelatinization temperature and maximum viscosity temperature regardless of ${\beta}$-glucan contents, but maximum viscosity increased with increasing ${\beta}$-glucan contents. Loaf volume and specific loaf volume of white pan bread decreased slightly with increasing ${\beta}$-glucan contents. Moisture content showed higher value in tests than that of the control, and the one added with 6% revealed highest moisture content. In terms of texture analysis, the one added with 6% of ${\beta}$-glucan revealed softer than the others. There were no differences between the groups added with 3% and with 6% on sensory evaluation, but the one added with 9% obtained lowest scores. As a result of this study, 6% of ${\beta}$-glucan is considered the resonable level to prepare healthy white pan bread. ${\beta}$-glucan can also be used when making cake and cookies.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the quality characteristics of bread supplemented with extruded corn fiber. The extrusion was conducted as the moisture content of the corn fiber reached 30% and 40% (at $140^{\circ}C$ and 200 rpm). The bread baked with 5% extruded corn fiber at a 40% feed moisture exhibited the highest specific volume. The hardness of the bread supplemented with 10% corn fiber was the highest during storage compared to bread supplemented with extruded corn fiber and the control (100% wheat flour). However, the hardness of bread with corn fiber or extruded corn fiber (5%) was lower than the control. In the sensory evaluation, preferences decreased with the increased addition of untreated and extruded corn fiber. Quality characteristics, such as specific volume and texture, of bread baked with extruded corn fiber were better than bread baked with corn fiber. This improvement in quality is likely due to modification of corn fibers and starch gelatinization from the extrusion process. Supplement of extruded corn fiber had the potential for bread making compared to raw corn fiber.

Differences in physiochemical characteristics of row waxy rice, steeped in optimum steeping conditions ($31.5^{\circ}C$, 9 days) were investigated along with the relationship between these properties and the quality characteristics of Gangjung made from ten different varieties of waxy rice in order to identify the optimal waxy rice variety for making Gangjung. The moisture content of ten waxy rice varieties was increased, but protein and ash contents were decreased during steeping. Mineral analysis, showed that the Fe, Mg, Ca, Na and K contents of all samples were decreased during steeping. Regarding the gelatinization behavior of the ten waxy rice varieties, the peak viscosity and breakdown were increased with the exception of Backjinju and Backjinju-1 during steeping. Shinsunchalbyeo was the most adaptable waxy rice variety for making Gangjung, as its tested scores for expansion ratio and crispness were higher than other waxy rice varieties. The textural properties of Gangjung made from Backjinju and Backjinju-1 had the highest levels of hardness and showed the lowest expansion ratios. Therefore, Backjinju and Backjinju-1 are considered the worst varieties for making Gangjung.

In this study, the productivity of bioethanol obtained from various domestic raw materials (barley, brown rice, corn and sweet potato) by simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) process was estimated. Also, optimal conditions of temperature, time and enzyme concentration in gelatinization and liquefaction process were investigated. As a result, corn showed high ethanol yield of 90.45% and sweet potato had a rapid fermentation time. Productivity of bioethanol increases in accordance with the starch value of raw materials except brown rice. Therefore, it is very important to understand the structure of starch. Further studieson the characteristics of raw materials are necessary to enhance the productivity of bioethanol.

The purpose of this study was to derive the conditions for manufacturing rice porridge with optimum properties after reheating. The characteristics of rice porridge according to the soaking time, water addition rate, heating temperature, heating time, and cooling conditions were compared using the 'Samkwang' cultivar. In Step I, as the heating temperature increased, the weight change decreased and the viscosity increased, and the temperature known as the main factor of the gelatinization also appeared to affect the viscosity increase. In Step II, the viscosity and the texture properties was not significantly different as the soaking time was reduced, and 10 minutes was suitable because of due to the shortening effect of the total process time. In Step III, the residual heat was lowered by cooling after the rice porridge production, so the viscosity could be greatly reduced. Also, it was confirmed that the water addition rate of 900% and the heating temperature of 15 minutes were optimal manufacturing conditions. The next study will investigate the porridge processability of rice cultivars using these results.

Resistant starch (RS) is metabolized by gut microbiota and involved in the production of short-chain fatty acids, which are related to a variety of physiological and health effects. Therefore, the availability of RS as a prebiotic is a topic of interest, and research on gut bacteria that can decompose RS is also important. The objectives in this study were 1) to isolate a human gut bacterium having strong degradation activity on non-gelatinized RS, 2) to characterize its RS-degrading characteristics, and 3) to investigate its probiotic effects, including a growth stimulation effect on other gut bacteria and an immunomodulatory effect. Bifidobacterium adolescentis P2P3 showing very strong RS granule utilization activity was isolated. It can attach to RS granules and form them into clusters. It also utilizes high-amylose corn starch granules up to 63.3%, and efficiently decomposes other various types of commercial RS without gelatinization. In a coculture experiment, Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron ATCC 29148, isolated from human feces, was able to grow using carbon sources generated from RS granules by B. adolescentis P2P3. In addition, B. adolescentis P2P3 demonstrated the ability to stimulate secretion of Th1 type cytokines from mouse macrophages in vitro that was not shown in other B. adolescentis. These results suggested that B. adolescentis P2P3 is a useful probiotic candidate, having immunomodulatory activity as well as the ability to feed other gut bacteria using RS as a prebiotic.

The physicochemical properties of sweet potato (SP) starches reclaimed from an SP-processing sludge without freezing (RC/NF) and with freezing (RC/FR) were investigated. Lab-isolated (LI) SP starch, as a control, were prepared from raw SP. RC/NF and RC/FR SP starches were recovered from SP-processing sludges by the repeated sieving and washing procedure. The total starch contents and amylopectin branch-chain distributions did not differ for three SP starches. Relative to LI and RC/NF SP starches (possessing similar physicochemical characteristics), the apparent amylose and phosphorus contents, swelling factor, and pasting viscosity were reduced for RC/FR SP starch. However, the freezing treatment altered X-ray diffraction pattern (at $5.5^{\circ}$, $11-12^{\circ}$, and $24^{\circ}$ $2{\theta}$) of RC/FR SP starch, which likely increased its gelatinization peak and completion temperatures. Its amorphous region in total diffractogram was reduced, resulting in the enhanced relative crystallinity. Overall results suggested SP starches recovered from an SP-processing sludge would have the potential to replace commercial SP starch products.

Generic HACCP models for bakery products may help HACCP implementation at the wholesale bakery production lines easier. When baking, the internal temperature of bakery products went up to $85^{\circ}C$, which resulted in gelatinization of starch. Considering the characteristics of bakery products, general sanitation control procedures are the main target tool to keep bakery products safe. Monitoring of pathogenic microorganisms at bakery plant environment including production lines was carried out. At the wholesale bakery environment pathogenic microorganisms were detected. It gave a clue that general sanitation control procedures should be implemented for safe bakery products supply. Hazard analysis of raw materials and processing of bakery products, and determination of critical control points and critical limits at the wholesale bakeries lead to present generic model of bakery product HACCP plan. CCPs for the wholesale bakery products may be applied and modified for the implementation of HACCP plan at the wholesale bakery plant.

The baking properties of rice bread with different percentages of butter and oil in wet and dry rice flour were investigated. The moisture, damaged starch, mean diameter, pasting properties by amylogram and RVA (Rapid Visco Analyzer), as well as thermal properties by DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry) of wet and dry rice flour were analyzed. The specific gravity and color (L, a, b) of the dough, as well as the appearance, color (L, a, b) and texture of the rice bread with different percentages of butter and oil in wet and dry rice flour were also analyzed. As a result, the wet rice flour were composed of a noted higher content in moisture, compared to the dry rice flour (p<0.001). The wet rice flour had lower values of damaged starch, higher values of mean diameter and a higher peak viscosity than was noted in the dry rice flour (p<0.001). The wet rice flour showed a higher degree of hydration and gelatinization than was seen in the dry rice flour (p<0.001). The prevailing principle to utilize the replacement of wet rice flour with oil had a significant effect on the volume, specific volume and hardness of the rice bread (p<0.001). The hardness of the rice bread also showed a decreasing trend as the amount of the added oil was increased into the mixture. These results suggest that the replacement of wet rice flour with 5.8% oil is effective for the production of rice bread.
