This study was conducted to investigate functional properties of 70% acetone extract in different parts of two potato varieties. 'Superior' and 'Atlantic' potato were processed by following method. Potatoes are washed, peeled, sliced and steamed before hot air drying for flesh and peel powder. Hunter's L and b values of flesh powder from blanched 'Superior' potato were higher than flesh powder from fresh 'Superior' potato. Discoloration of 'Superior' potato was inhibited by steam blanching. Contents of total polyphenol and chlorogenic acid in the 70% acetone extract of 'Superior' potato were higher than those of 'Atlantic' potato paticularly in the blanched flesh and peel. But flavonoid was not detected in flesh extract. The phenolic concentration was not decreased by the heat treatment. The nitritescavenging and electron donating ability was greatest at the tuber peel including the skin and cortex tissue 1mm beneath the skin. From the above results browning reaction and polyphenol contents in different parts of potato slices were dependent on cutivars. Peels contained more polyphenols than those from the flesh. The results indicate that potato peel extract of steam blanched plus hot air dried potato tuber showed the effectiveness as a natural nitrite scavenger and antioxidant.

Soybean curd residues (SCR) obtained from hot and cold manufacturing processes were fermented by indigenous microorganisms, Lactobacillus rhamnosus LS and Bacillus firmus NA-l for 15 h at 37$^{\circ}C$. The pH, acidity, viable cell counts, and tyrosine content were evaluated in samples with variations in sugar, starter and type of SCR. The raw Doowon SCR (D-SCR, cold-processed) fermented by indigenous microorganism had a 0.9% acidity and 6.7 ${\times}$ 10$^{7}$ CFU/g viable cell counts, compared with the 0.11 % acidity and 6.7 ${\times}$ 10$^{6}$ CFU/g viable cell counts of raw fermented Pulmuwon SCR (P-SCR, hot-processed). After fermentation of raw P-SCR with 1 % glucose and 1 % L. rhamnosus LS starter, the viable cell counts, tyrosine content and acidity were 4.7 ${\times}$ 10$^{8}$ CFU/g, 16.3 mg% and 0.9%, respectively. In addition, the raw P-SCR fermented with Bacillus firmus NA-l as co-starter had a 0.45% acidity, 2.4 ${\times}$ 10$^{8}$ CFU/g lactic acid bacteria, and 3.3 ${\times}$ 10$^{6}$ CFU/g Bacillus sp. In particular, the tyrosine content was increased 5 fold. The drying of fermented SCR was completed by hot-air drying (5$0^{\circ}C$) within 12 h; the dried P-SCR and D-SCR had 1.8 ${\times}$ 10$^{7}$ CFU/g and 5.3 ${\times}$ 10$^{6}$ CFU/g viable cell counts, respectively. The concentrate of methanol extract from fermented D-SCR inhibited the initial cell growth of E. coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa in liquid culture.

Background: The purpose of improving the quality of oriental medicinal herbs is to contribute to the improvement of the income of farm. The present study investigated the effect of reasonable drying methods, different storage conditions and packageing materials on quality and stability of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi and for developing GAP (good agricultural practice) guide book. Methods and Results: Three methods of drying Scutellaria baicalensis roots produced over two years were used to estimate loss rate owing to drying, storage, and packaging. The methods of drying were categorized into natural drying (36 - 60 h by sunshine), drying with heat dryer (2 - 10 h), or drying with gas bulk dryer (2 - 10 h). After cleaning, and initial drying for a few days under controlled temperature conditions, the second phase of drying was carried out at 35, 45 and $55^{\circ}C$. Changes in hunter color values and quality under the two studied storage treatments (at $20^{\circ}C$ indoors and at $4^{\circ}C$ in a refigerator) were evaluated. Storage period for 60, 120, and 180 days in three packaging materials, PE (polyethylene package), PP (polypropylene gunnysack), and WP (watertight packing paper) were studied. Conclusions: Initial cleaning, reasonable gas drying and hot air drying, and drying in an oven at 35 and $45^{\circ}C$ after cutting the roots resulted in the lowest loss rates in S. Baicalensis root. Hunter color valuse indicated that stroage of dry roots at room temperature was better than PP packaging, and that cold stroage was better than PE packaging for long-term stability.

The effect of the dehydration method and EDTA or BHA treatment upon the pigment degradation and water re-absorption of the dehydrated meat of the surf clam Mactra Sulcataria REEVE was studied. Sun drying Produced a realer decrease in pigment content as compared to that produced by hot-air dehydration. The hot-air dehydrated product which was treated with BHA showed little pigment loss in comparison with the pigment of the fresh surf clam meat. The BHA treatment upon the dehydrated surf clam products had an outstanding effect on the pigment retention and the EDTA treated one had a weak effect on it. The hot-air dehydrated products more rapidly re-absorbed water than the sun dried one. It could be seen that there was tittle difference among the rate of rehydration of the BHA or EDTA treated product and untreated one.

The study was to analyze aroma patterns of Gastrodiae Rhizoma by the electronic nose with conducing polymer 32 sensors. Response by the electronic nose was analyzed by the principal component analysis (PCA). Sensory evaluation for the organoleptic characteristics of Gastrodiae Rhizoma was also performed. Raw Gastrodiae Rhizoma was very intensive in overall odor and taste. Hot air-dried $60^{\circ}C$ Gastrodiae Rhizoma was relatively weak in overall odor and taste. Intensity of aroma in the electronic nose was the highest in $60^{\circ}C$ hot air-dried Gastrodiae Rhizoma. As quality factor (QF) calcuated from PCA map of normalized pattern data by thirty two sensors showed less than 2, and so aroma pattern among raw, freezed-dried, and hot-air dried Gastrodiae Rhizoma had no difference. When PCA was performed for normalized pattern data by the selected sensitive ten sensors, QF value between raw and $60^{\circ}C$ hot air-dried Gastrodiae Rhizoma was 2.366. Thus aroma pattern of raw and $60^{\circ}C$ hot air-dried Gastrodiae Rhizoma was discriminated in electronic nose.

This study produced hot-air-dried perilla leaf to add Korea's popular perilla leaf to fresh noodles to examine their value as food and get the best fresh noodle recipe by adding 0%, 3%. 6%, 9%, and 12% of perilla leaf to flour. The moisture content of the dough was highest at 34.41% for the control group with 0% perilla leaf, whereas the pH was lowest at 5.59 for the dough with 12% perilla leaf. As a result of WRC analysis of the dough, moisture absorption increased with greater perilla leaf content. The moisture content of fresh noodles was lowest for the control group with 0% perilla leaf, whereas the pH was highest for the control group. The L, a, and b values of the dough were highest for the group with 0% perilla leaf powder. Hardness and cohesiveness were lowest for the 0% group and springiness tended to decrease with increased amounts of hot air-dried perilla leaf. The number of microorganisms decreased significantly with greater perilla leaf content on the third and fourth days. As a result of the sensory test, the 6% dough showed the highest scores for all items including appearance, flavor, color, taste, and texture. Overall acceptability was also highest at 7.20 for the 6% dough and lowest at 3.27 for the 12% dough. Based on the above results, when producing fresh noodles by adding hot-air-dried perilla leaf powder, inhibition of microorganisms improved with greater perilla leaf content for longer storage, but the sensory properties were best when 6% perilla leaf content was added.

Zucchini slices, sweet potato stems, taro stems, and platycodon treated with various methods such as dipping in citric acid solution, sulfite solution, or sulfur fumigation were dried by the natural sun drying method or the forced air drying method at 50, 70, 90, or $105^{\circ}C$. Mold growth of the dried vegetables and sensory quality of the dried and rehydrated vegetables were investigated. Limiting moisture contents to prevent mold growth over 3 month storage under room temperature were 15, 20, 25, and 15% for zucchini slices, sweet potato stems, taro stems, and platycodon, respectively. The chlorophyll containing vegetables dehydrated by the forced hot air showed better sensory quality than those by the natural sun. Among the pretreatments, dipping in the sulfite solution provided the best sensory quality to the dried vegetables. The sensory quality of dried platycodon was improved to a small extent by sulfur fumigation and sulfite solution treatment. The sensory quality of the dried platycodon was not found to be affected by the drying methods. All the tested vegetables dried at $105^{\circ}C$ had the worst sensory quality. Except drying temperature of $105^{\circ}C$, the lower the drying temperature, the better the sensory quality and the rehydration rates were obtained for the tested vegetables except platycodon. The sensory quality of the platycodon was little affected by the drying temperature tested in the range of $50{\sim}90^{\circ}C$.

The quality of salted and semi-dried mackerel prepared by cold osmotic dehydration using a high osmotic pressure resin during storage at $5{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ was evaluated. The moisture contents in salted and semi-dried mackerel decreased in. range of 4 during storage. The brown pigment formation content and peroxide value of salted and semi-dried mackerel prepared by osmotic dehydration were more lower than those of salted and semi-dried mackerel prepared by traditional drying methods such as sun-drying, hot-air drying and cold air drying. The viable cell count and histamine contents of cold osmotic dried products were much lower and revealed a tendency to increase during storage, but even these values after storage of 15 days showed that the salted and semi-dried mackerel was safety in respect of food sanitation. The ratio of saline soluble nitrogen to total nitrogen in cold osmotic dried products were higher than that of traditional dried products during storage. Judging from the results of chemical and sensory evaluation, shelf-life of salted and semi-dried mackerel by cold osmotic drying were more longer than that of salted and semi-dried mackerel prepared by traditional drying.

The purposes of this study were: (1) to examine the quality characteristics of the Sulgidducks added with barley sprouts by blanching (CON), freeze-drying (FBP), hot-air drying(HBP); (2) to examine the quality characteristics of Sulgidduck such as the moisture content, the color value, the textural properties and the sensory evaluation; (3) to find the optimal ratio of barley sprouts, which were made by the three different drying methods. As a result, the Sulgidduks containing barley sprouts by CON showed a lot of significance and high correlation depending on the amounts of the barley sprout(p<0.05). As the amounts of CON, FBP and HBP increased, the L and the a values of Sulgidducks significantly decreased, whereas the b values of them increased. For the textual properties of the Sulgidducks, on the first day, the concentration in CON up to 6% showed no significant differences in the hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, and chewiness. In case of FBP, the increase in the additives caused decrease in the hardness, adhesiveness, springiness, and chewiness of the Sulgidducks on storage 0 day(p<0.05). As the amounts of HBP increased, the hardness, springiness of the Sulgidducks on the first day decreased(p<0.05). Conclusionally, 6% blanched barley sprout added group, 2% FBP and HBP were highly rated in color, flavor, bitterness, chewiness, overall acceptability and all sensory quality characteristics.
