This study investigated the physicochemical and antioxidant properties of sponge cakes made using different amounts (2 and 4%) of barley sprout powder (BSP) and green tea powder (GTP), respectively. The results showed that the baking loss rate of GS2 (2% green tea) and GS4 (4% green tea) was 12.39% and 11.96%, respectively in the green tea addition group, which was higher than that of the barley sprout group, but significantly lower than that of the control group at 13.34% (p<0.05). The specific volumes of the sponge cake containing barley sprout and green tea 2% and 4% were between 2.84-2.95 mL/g, which was significantly higher compared to the control group at 2.69 mL/g (p<0.05). The sugar content was significantly higher in the control group and the barley sprout addition group at 2.30°Brix (p<0.05). As for the volume index, the control group with the lowest value at 13.43 showed a significant difference compared to the addition groups. The volume index significantly decreased as the addition amount increased, measuring 14.07 in BS4 (4% BSP) compared to 14.87 of BS2 (2% BSP) in the barley sprout group (p<0.05). In cross-sectional photography, the color became darker than that of the control group as the quantum of additives increased. In terms of the DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity, the total phenol content, and total flavonoid content, the groups with the addition of barley sprout and green tea showed higher antioxidant activity than the control group (p<0.05).

Sensory analysis and quality properties were performed on post-aged doenjang (fermented soybean pastes) in order to elucidate the contribution of citrus, green tea and cactus powder to their sensory evaluation. The doenjang added citrus fruits, green tea and cactus powder used a concentration of 0, 3 and 7% (w/w) at 4, 20, $30^{\circ}C$ respectively and analyzed the proximate composition, pH, salt, mineral and amino acid contents after 60 days. Moisture and protein changes during ripening did not show any significant difference. The pH showed lower in the doenjang added citrus and cactus powder than no added soybean paste. The glutamic acid content of doenjang added citrus fruits showed a little decreasing value although there were no differences between samples with various addition contents. Sensory evaluation of doenjang showed that there were no significant differences in preference in the case of added green tea and cactus powder; However, the flavor significantly increased doenjang added 3% citrus powder at $30^{\circ}C$. These results showed that the preference of doenjang containing 3% citrus powder was superior to green tea and cactus powder.

The effects of green tea powder (GTP) on the rheological properties of dough and gelatinization characteristics were evaluated by farinograph, extensograph, amylograph and DSC. The flours used were high strength flour (HF: 12.5% protein) and blend of 50% high strength flour and 50% low strength flour (HLF: 10.5% protein). As the amount of GTP increased, water absorption, development time and weakness of the dough decreased for both flours, but dough stability increased only for HLF; the extension of the dough decreased but the resistance to extension increased. The pasting temperature increased and maximum viscosity decreased. On the other hand, with the addition of green tea extract to the wheat starch, transition onset temperature, transition peak temper-ature and enthalpy decreased, demonstrating that catechins in green tea facilitate the starch crystal melting.

Absorption characteristics of green tea powder were investigated. The monolayer moisture content determined by GAB equation was 0.024~0.052 g $H_2O$/g dry solid. The absorption enthalpy was calculated with different particle size and various water activities. It showed that the absorption energy was decreased with increasing water activity but no difference was found on particle size increasement. Among models applied for predicting equilibrium moisture content, Halsey model was the best fit model for green tea powders, showing the lowest prediction deviation of 2.1~4.0%. The prediction model equations for the water activity was established as function of relative humidity, time and temperature. The model equation will be helpful for future work on drying and storage of green tea powder.

Green tea (Camellia sinensis L.) is consumed as a popular beverage worldwide, particularly in Asia. In this study, the effects of green tea powder addition on the antioxidant activities and texture properties of cooked rice were investigated. Texture analysis was carried out by texture profile analysis. Total polyphenols and total flavonoids were determined using spectrophotometric methods, and antioxidative activities were determined based on DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities, reducing power, and lipid peroxidation inhibitory activity. Antioxidant contents and antioxidative activities increased with a higher amount of green tea powder. However, there was no difference in texture properties between cooked rice with green tea powder and the control group. In conclusion, addition of green tea powder to cooked rice would be useful to increase antioxidant contents and antioxidative activities without alteration of texture properties.

The purpose of this study was to examine physical properties of the addition of green tea powder on bread flour and dough rheology of white pan bread. Three levels(0.1, 0.5 and 1.0% ) of each green tea powder with bread flour were tested for their effects in dough mixing using rapid disco analyzer, alveogram and farinogram. Addition of green tea powder tended to reduce initial pasting temperature and increase peak viscosity, break down and set back. L(extensibility) and G(swelling index) value in alveogram showed decrement with increasing green tea powder. These meant that the volume of white pan bread would show same tendency. The use of green tea powder increased consistency and water absorption of the bread flour but decreased development time, salability and degree of softening on farinogram. White pan bread with green tea powder had higher value of hardness and springness than without it. Sensory evaluation determined that the white pan bread with 0.5% green tea powder had the highest score.

The purpose of this research is to understand features of the present condition of green tea food by analyzing the data on tea foods presented in Korean literature after the 1990's (two articles from professional journals related to tea culture, and three books related to tea food). The main conclusions are as follows: 1. It is found from separating 354 different kinds of green tea foods into three categories - main dishes, side dishes and desserts - that there are 137 kinds of side dishes, 123 kinds of desserts, and 94 kinds of main dishes from green tea foods. Upon dividing these into smaller categories, there are 40 rice dishes, 27 noodle dishes, 18 gruel dishes and 9 dumpling dishes found among the main dishes; 26 pan fried dishes, 24 potherb/cooked potherbs dishes, 17 deep-fried dishes, 15 soup/broth dishes, 14 grilled dishes, 11 smothered dishes, 10 hard -boiled/fried dishes, 6 kimchi dishes, 4 dried food dishes, 4 jelly dishes, 4 stew dishes, and 2 raw fish dishes among the side dishes; and 37 snack dishes, 36 punch/drink dishes, 26 rice cake dishes, and 24 bread dishes are found among the desserts. 2. There are 201 kinds of green tea foods using powders, 107 kinds using wet tea leaves, 61 kinds using dry tea leaves, 57 kinds using water of drawn tea, and 17 kinds using wild tea leaves, according to analysis of teas used for green tea foods. There is more use of powder for snacks, punch and drinks, rice cakes, noodles, and breads, and more use of wet tea leaves for rice, pan fried food, and potherb/cooked potherb dishes. It is also shown that there is more use of water from drawn tea for rice, punch and drinks, noodles, and gruels, more use of dry tea leaves for snack, rice, breads, and more use of wild tea leaves for deep-fried and pan fried kinds of tea foods.

This study is to find out effects of hot water soluble extract from green tea, one of the Korean favorites, on the calcium metabolism and bone strength in body. To do so, calcium, phosphate, creatinine concentration and ALP activity in blood and the content of calcium and ash in the organ, the length, weight, strength in bone were measured. In addition, to find the calcium metabolism, the level of calcium intake, excretion, retention were measured. Twenty male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into two groups and isoloated soy protein was provided as the source of protein and CaCO₃ was provided as the source of calcium. 0.5% hot water soluble extract from green tea was provided to the green tea groups and for the control group deionized water was provided. The results are as follows ; 1. There is no difference between the experimental groups in diet intake, weight gain, and the feed intake. 2. Feed efficiency ratio was low in the group which hot water soluble extract from green tea was provided. 3. There is no difference between groups the level of calcium, phosphorus, creatinine and ALP activity in serum. 4. There is no difference between groups weight, contents of ash and calcium in kidney and liver. 5. There is no difference between groups in calcium intake, absorption, excretion, and retention. 6. There is no difference between groups weight, length and strength in bone. In summary, when hot water soluble extract from green tea was provided with the amount of 150-200mg, which is taken when people generally drink as favorite tea, weight gain was reduced due to the decrease of feed efficiency ratio. However, it did not affect the availability of calcium in body at all. Thus, even if a big quantity of green tea powder or solid of hot green tea extract is not provided, the quantity obtained when people drink green tea lowers the feed efficiency ratio without reducing availability of calcium in body.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the oxidative stability of green tea-added mayonnaise during storage at 5, 15 and 25$\^{C}$. Mayonnaise was prepared with salad oil, egg yolk, sugar, salt and vinegar, and added with 0.1, 0.3 and 0.5% of green tea powder for experiment. Peroxide values (POV) of each mayonnaise were compared during storage for 13 weeks. POVs of control mayonnaise stored at 5, 15 and 25$\^{C}$ for 13 weeks were 28.0, 63.5 and 144.4 meq/kg, respectively. Oxidative stability of green tea-added mayonnaise was increased with increasing concentration of green tea in mayonnaise, but it was decreased with increasing storage temperature. The addition of green tea at 0.5% extended the induction period of mayonnaise significantly (p<0.05) at each temperature. Relative antioxidant effect (RAE) of mayonnaise containing 0.1% of green tea were 226%, 188% and 143% during storage at 5, 15 and 25$\^{C}$, respectively, and it was increased with increasing green tea concentration in mayonnaise. The results suggested that the use of green tea is valuable to inhibit the oxidation of mayonnaise as a natural antioxidant.
