This study was conducted to understand the quality characteristics of salt fermented anchovies with heat treatment by measuring their chemical compositions. The heat-treated and non-heat treated salt fermented anchovies contained, respectively, 63.21 and 66.51% of moisture, 2.24 and 2.12% of total nitrogen (TN), and 1,537 and 1,520 mg/100 g of amino nitrogen (AN). In addition, heat-treated and non-heat-treated salt fermented anchovies contained 127 and 134 mg/100 g of volatile basic nitrogen (VBN), respectively. Moreover, measured the microbial level of heat-treated and non-heat-treated salt fermented anchovies was $2.58{\times}10^4$ and $3.61{\times}10^2$ CFU/mL, respectively. Also, the heat-treated and non-heat-treated salt fermented anchovies 3.65 and 0.30 units of protease activities, respectively. The total free amino acid contents in heat-treated and non-heat-treated salt fermented anchovies was 4,964 and 6,638 mg/100 g, respectively. The major free amino acid were glutamic acid, leucine, lysine, alanine, valine, isoleucine. Our results provide the characteristics of salt fermented anchovies and encourage their application for the food industry and cooking.

The digestibility of heat- or high-pres sure-treated beef extracts was evaluated with an in vitro simulated gastric digestion model and each sample also underwent immune assay to detect its antigenicity with the sera of beef allergic patients. Heat treatment of the beef extracts considerably decreased their digestibility, whereas high-pressure treatment at 200 MPa improved their digestibility compared with the control, but the difference was not significant. The digestibility of the high pressure-treated beef extract was generally higher than that of the heat-treated samples. Depending on the degree of digestion, the degree of antigenicity of the main beef allergens decreased. On the basis of these results, we hypothesized that the allergenicity of beef could be eliminated if the allergenic proteins are sufficiently digested in the digestive organ, leading to the suggestion that the digestibility of allergenic proteins must be improved in food processing. In conclusion, high-pressure processing is a more acceptable food processing technique for beef considering its digestibility.

Physicochemical properties of chestnut starch, which was adjusted at 14, 18, 21 and 24% moisture and heated for 16 hr at $100^{\circ}C$, were investigated. The cystallinity, swelling power and solubility of the starch were decreased upon heat-moisture treatments. The swelling power of the heat-moisture treated starch showed an inverse relation with moisture levels, while the solubility showed opposite trend. The swelling power and the solubility of both raw and heat-moisture treated starches held a liner relationship. The. water binding capacity of the starch was drastically increased upon heat-moisture treatments. Amylograms revealed that the heat-moisture treated starches had higher initial pasting temperature and lower viscosity than untreated starch. No peak viscosity was observed for the heat treated starches above 21% moisture. The minimum moisture contents for gelatinization of raw and heat-moisture (18%) treated starches were 45 and 40%, respectively. The gelatinization temperature of raw and heat-moisture (18%) treated starches was $65^{\circ}C$.

This study was designed to develop non-thermal pasteurized fresh apple juice by applying pulsed electric field (PEF) treatment. The effect of non-thermal PEF treatment on physicochemical and sensory properties of apple juice was examined by measuring changes in vitamin C contents, colors, flavors and sensory properties. Color of PEF and heat treated apple juices was not significantly different from each other. Vitamin C content of PEF treated apple juice was close to that of fresh apple juice, but was much higher than that of heat treated apple juice. Heat treated apple juice lost 70% of flavor components, whereas PEF-treated apple juice lost only 15%. Sensory scores of PEF treated apple juice were significantly higher than heat-treated one in flavor, taste and overall acceptability. In conclusion, PEF treated apple juice had superior physico-chemical and sensory properties to heat-treated one.

Heat treatment of milk aims to inhibit the growth of microbes, extend the shelf-life of products and improve the quality of the products. Heat treatment also leads to denaturation of whey protein and the formation of whey protein-casein polymer, which has negative effects on milk product. Hence the milk heat treatment conditions should be controlled in milk processing. In this study, the denaturation degree of whey protein and the combination degree of whey protein and casein when undergoing heat treatment were also determined by using the Native-PAGE and SDS-PAGE analysis. The results showed that the denaturation degree of whey protein and the combination degree of whey protein with casein extended with the increase of the heat-treated temperature and time. The effects of the heat-treated temperature and heat-treated time on the denaturation degree of whey protein and on the combination degree of whey protein and casein were well described using the quadratic regression equation. The analysis strategy used in this study reveals an intuitive and effective measure of the denaturation degree of whey protein, and the changes of milk protein under different heat treatment conditions efficiently and accurately in the dairy industry. It can be of great significance for dairy product proteins following processing treatments applied for dairy product manufacturing.

Effect of pre- and post-mild heat treatment on quality of fresh-cut potatoes was investigated with the focus on surface color, firmness, phenolics, vitamin C and sensory characteristics. As the pre-heat treatment before cutting of potatoes, dried hot air (DH) and hot water (WH) treatment were conducted at $45^{\circ}C$ for 60 min, respectively. As a post-heat (CH) treatments, potato cubes were dipped into water of $55^{\circ}C$ for 45 seconds after cutting. The potato cubes were packed in 15 cm x 20 cm LDPE pouches $30^{\mu}m$ thick and then stored at $5{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. The respiration rate of fresh-cut potatoes was decreased by mild heat treatment Especially, the rate of cubes treated with DH was decreased by $20\%$ compared to that of the non-heat treated. L value of cubes treated with DH showed higher value than that of others. Firmness and free phenolics had no significant difference between the treatments. The fresh-cut potatoes prepared with non-heat treatment showed higher vitamin C content than that of the heat treated. In sensory visual color, CH treated cubes marked the best quality. Conclusively, mild heat treatment, especially CH treatment, showed positive effect on browning inhibition and quality enhancement of fresh-cut potatoes.

Imitation fish roe (IFR) based on calcium alginate hydrogels (CAG) can be heat treated for sterilization and salted to prolong the shelf life. However, these processes change the physical properties of IFR, and it is necessary to minimize these changes. In this study, we investigated the effects of xanthan gum (XG) treatment on the quality and stability of IFR. Both non-XG and XG-treated IFRs were treated with boiling water (95℃), sodium chloride (0.5-2.0%, w/v), and autoclaving. The non-XG treated IFR shrunk slightly after the boiling water and autoclaving processes. By comparison, shrinkage of the XG-treated IFR after autoclaving was significantly reduced. The sphericity of the non-XG treated IFR was reduced by the boiling water, sodium chloride, and autoclaving treatment. However, the sphericity of the XG-treated IFR was maintained by 90% or more, preserving the IFR shape at a level visually recognized as spherical. In addition, unlike the non-XG treated IFR, the XG-treated IFR showed high rupture strength even after the salt and heat treatments. Our findings provide useful information for the industrialization of IFR based on CAG with heat and salt treatments.

Soybean is one of the most common food materials for making traditional Korean foods such as soybean paste, soy source and soy snack, and their manufacturing processes include heat treatment of soybean. This study was carried out to investigate the effect of heat treatment on the physicochemical properties of soybean. All samples were heat treated under commercial steamed, puffed or air-fried conditions, and then the protein molecular weight distribution, thermal properties, fluorescence intensity, protein solubility, and water and oil holding ability of the heat treated soybeans were examined. Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis indicated that heat treatment caused fragmentation of polypeptide chain in soybean, showing the band of low molecular ranging from 17 to 40 kDa. The differential scanning calorimetric analysis showed the decrease of enthalpy values (${\Delta}H$) by heat treatment. Fluorescence spectroscopy indicated that the heat treatment caused lipid oxidation as proved by increasing emission intensity. The protein solubility at pH 3-6, and water holding capacity of heat treated soybeans were the higher than no treatment. These results suggest that the heat treatment resulted in decreased enthalpy values, and increased protein degradation, lipid oxidation and water affinity of soybean. Moreover, the effect of heat treatment on physiochemical properties of soybeans was more significant under air-fried condition.

The reduction effect of UV-C irradiation and mild heat treatment was examined against Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Salmonella Typhimurium on black pepper powder. E. coli O157:H7 (ATCC 35150) and S. Typhimurium (ATCC 19585) were inoculated onto black pepper powder at approximately $10^7$ and $10^6CFU/g$, respectively. E. coli O157:H7 and S. Typhimurium were treated with UV-C and mild heat at $60^{\circ}C$. A UV-C intensity ($2.32W/cm^2$ ) was used for 10 min to 70 min at $60^{\circ}C$. After UV-C and heat treatment at $60^{\circ}C$, microbial analysis and color change of black pepper powder was conducted. E. coli O157:H7 and S. Typhimurium were reduced by a level of 1.89 and 2.24 log CFU/g, respectively, when treated with UV-C alone for 70 min. And E. coli O157:H7 and S. Typhimurium were reduced by 2.22 and 5.10 log CFU/g, respectively, when treated with mild heat treatment at $60^{\circ}C$ alone for 70 min. But when combined with UV-C and mild heat, it showed higher levels of reduction by 2.46 and 5.70 log CFU/g. S. Typhimurium was more easily reduced than E. coli O157:H7. Color values were not significantly (p > 0.05) different in all treated samples. Therefore, these results suggest that the combined treatment with UV-C and mild heat was effective to inactivate the food pathogens in black pepper powder and can be used as a food industrial microbial intervention method.

To produce fresh-cut fruit products of high quality, the combined effects of postharvest calcium and heat treatment on Tsugaru apple were examined. Whole fruits were treated for 20 min at three different conditions: dipping in 3% $CaCl_2$ solution at $45^{\circ}C$ or ambient temperature, or in heated water at $45^{\circ}C$. The calcium content of the apples dipped in $CaCl_2$ solution at $45^{\circ}C$ was higher than that of the control and the non-heated calcium dipping. The fruits with calcium and heat treatment showed the same pattern of respiration rates as the control did during storage. The browning degree of the apple slices increased to approximately 3% after one-day storage, but no significant difference was observed between the treated and untreated apples. The fruits with $CaCl_2$ solution dipping at $45^{\circ}C$ had higher firmness than those with calcium dipping or heat treatment alone.
