This study was conducted to obtain the optimal conditions of hot air drying for Cudrania tricuspidata by response surface methodology (RSM). The independent variables were blanching time (60, 120, 240 sec), drying temperature (40, 60, $80^{\circ}C$) and drying time (12, 24, 36 h). The dependant variables were total polyphenol content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), DPPH radical scavenging activity (DPPH), and color difference (${\Delta}E$). Viable cell colony was counted according to changes of blanching time. It was confirmed that microorganisms gradually decreased with increasing blanching time. From RSM results, the predicted values of TPC, TFC, DPPH, and ${\Delta}E$ were 8.62 mg GAE/g, 56.65 mg RE/g, 40.26% and 11.69, respectively. Experimental values within the optimal range (240 sec, blanching time; $60^{\circ}C$, drying temperature; 24 h, drying time) were 10.06 mg GAE/g, 49 mg RE/g, 44.99% and 10.53, respectively. The predicted values were similar to the experimental values. Comparing drying tendency according to changes of blanching time, moisture reduction was bigger in the blanched sample than that in control at $40^{\circ}C$. However, the differences between blanched and control decreased with increase of drying temperature. Viable cell gradually decreased as increasing blanching time.

In vitro physiological functions such as jack bean (Canavalia ensiformis) urease inhibitory activity and retarding effect of glucose/bile acid of Aloe vera gel concentrated by the optimized DIS (Dewatering Impregnation & Soaking) process conditions were examined. Urease inhibitory activity of DIS aloes ranged from 84.6 to 94.4%, which was similar to or higher than 86.3% of fresh aloe. Also, urease inhibitory activity of DIS aloes was maintained at initial levels after heat treatment (90$^{\circ}C$, 10 min.) and drying treatment (freeze or hot air drying). Urease inhibition pattern from Lineweaver-Burk plot indicated general non-competitive inhibition, and inhibition constants ($K_{IE}$ and $K_{IES}$) of DIS aloes were 41-149 and 87-163 $\mu$L/mL, respectively. DIS(glucose) and DIS(polyethylene glycol) exhibited the highest retarding effect of glucose and bile acid. Their retarding effects were about 1.6 and 1.8 folds higher than that of fresh aloe after 0.5 and 1 hr of the dialysis, respectively. Conclusively, the above in vitro physiological functions of Aloe vera gel concentrated by DIS process suggested that aloe products treated with DIS would have the potential benefits for protection against Helicobacter pylori and reduction of blood glucose and cholesterol levels.

This study was conducted to examine the effects of starch noodles (dangmyeon; SNs) with different starch sources and porcine intestines (PIs) with different pH on the rehydration stability of Korean blood sausage (sundae). Mungbean SN3 and PI3 (pH 9.18) showed significantly higher values of 80.69%-91.67% and 79.66%-80.98%, respectively, regardless of the drying methods (hot air, vacuum and freeze drying) (p<0.05). A number of larger pores were observed only in the cross-section of the freeze dried SN and PI through SEM. SN2 (potato starch) and PI3 (pH 9.18) showed lower expansion (⁎ΔL 6.90 mm) and higher expansion ratio (⁎ΔL 26.29 mm), respectively, after rehydration of freeze dried sample (p<0.05). From the application of SN2 (potato starch) and PI (0.5%-2.0% Na-pyrophosphate) to freeze dried sundae manufacturing, higher rehydration stability of more than 91.5% was obtained. These results suggested that potato SN and treatment of PI with Na-pyrophosphate is useful for desirable rehydration stability of freeze dried sundae.

Sliced ginger samples were dried using 30, 50, and 80% maltodextrin, respectively, as a dehydrating agent. The moisture content of the maltodextrin-treated ginger decreased with increasing concentrations of maltodextrin. The dehydrated ginger was compared with hot air-dried and freeze-dried ginger samples in terms of rehydration ratio, gingerol content, color, and sensory characteristics. The rehydration ratio of the maltodextrin-treated ginger was superior to those of the hot-air dried or freeze-dried ginger. In addition, the maltodextrin-treated ginger had the highest content of 6-gingerol among the samples. Color as well as sensory scores for odor, texture, appearance, and overall acceptance were greater for the maltodextrin-treated ginger compared to the hot-air dried or freeze-dried ginger. These results indicate that drying ginger with maltodextrin is very efficient because good rehydration capacity is retained and minimal cell destruction can be achieved.

The changes in physicochemical characteristics and sensory evaluation of bracken (Pteridium aquilinum) and Aster scaber dried by different methods sun-dried, hot-air-dried and freeze-dried were investigated. The freeze-dried Aster scaber showed the lowest moisture content than those of sun-dried and hot-air-dried. Freeze-dried bracken and Aster scaber showed higher rehydration rate than sun-dried and hot-air-dried. In the color values, the freeze-dried bracken and Aster scaber had the highest $L^*$ value of 29.48 and 32.73, respectively, while freeze-dried Aster scaber showed the lowest $a^*$ value of -6.78. Rehydrated bracken and Aster scaber after freeze-dried were the highest value in $L^*$ and $b^*$, while the lowest in $a^*$ value. In sensory evaluation, freeze-dried bracken and Aster scaber showed the highest in color, appearance, flavor, texture and overall acceptability. There were no significant differences in texture between hot-air-dried bracken and freeze-dried bracken after rehydrating. However, freeze-dried bracken and Aster scaber were the highest in color, appearance, flavor and overall acceptability. In conclusion, freeze-dried bracken and Aster scaber showed the best rehydrated rate, color and sensory properties.

This study was to develop processed food with the addition of onion powder by investigating the quality characteristics of cookies with various levels (0, 1, 3, 5 and 10%) of hot-air dried yellow and red onion powder. Moisture (11.59%), crude protein (4.56%), and crude ash contents (3.83%) of yellow onion powder showed higher value than red onion powder. Hot-air dried yellow onion powder showed a higher L and b value as compared with red onion powder because of the unique color of the onion. Browning index was lower in red onion powder than red onion powder. Phenolic contents of yellow onion powder appeared to be higher than that of red onion powder. Total sugar contents were higher in red onion powder than yellow onion powder. The pH of the dough significantly decreased with increase of added onion powder contents. Dough density of control had a significantly higher value than the other samples. Hardness measurement showed significantly higher value with increasing additions of onion powder contents; added red onion powder samples were the most highest when compared to added yellow onion powder samples. Results of sensory characteristics showed significantly higher smell, taste, texture and overall acceptability with 3% added red onion sample. Quality characteristics of 5% added yellow onion powder sample and 3% added red onion powder sample indicated possibilities for developments of onion cookies.

The present work was undertaken: (1) to determine if CaO-partially stabilized $ZrO_2$ prepared by Hot Petroleum Drying Method would show better ionic conductor as an oxygen sensor in molten metals than that prepared by Oxide Wet Mixing Method and than CaO-fully stabilized $ZrO_2$, and (2) to understand the nature of conduction mechanism of CaO-partially stabilized $ZrO_2$ by a comparison of measured electrical conductivity data with theory on defect structure of pure monoclinic $ZrO_2$ and fully stabilized cubic $ZrO_2$. The DC electrical conductivity was measured by 3-probe technique and the AC electrical conductivity by 2-probe technique as a function of temperature in the range 973-1373 K and oxygen partial pressure in the range 10-1-10-25Mpa. The results of the experiments were as follows: 1. CaO-partially stabilized $ZrO_2$ prepared by Hot petroleum Drying Method showed at T=1094-1285 K and $Po_2$=10-7-10-25 MPa a nearly ionic conduction with 4 times higher conductivity than that prepared by Oxide Wet Mixing Method. 2. High-oxygen pressure conductivity tends toward a Po_2^{+1/5}-Po_2^{+1/6}$dependence. An analysis of possible defect structures suggests that CaO-partially stabilized $ZrO_2$ has an anti-Frenkel defect in which singly or doubly ionized oxygen interstitials and defect electrons predominate at T=1094-1285 K and $Po_2$=10-1-10-7MPa. 3. The activation energy for pure electron hole-conduction and ionic conduction of CaO-partially stabilized $ZrO_2$ was found to be 130 KJ/mol at T=973-1373 K, $Po_2$=2, 127 10-2 MPa(air) and 153KJ/mol at T=1094-1285 K respectively.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of different steam condition and dehydration condition on physicochemical characteristics of Olbyeossal made from Waxy rice. All samples were steamed at $95-100^{\circ}C$ for 60 min or at $121^{\circ}C$ for 20 min and then were dehydrated using hot air 45, 60, $80^{\circ}C$ and sun-dried to achieve moisture contents 13-15%. Initial pasting temperature of Olbyeossal was the lower than that of nontreatment sample by parboiling. The combination in steaming $95-100^{\circ}C$ and hot drying at $45-60^{\circ}C$ was showed appropriate pasting properties compared with other condition. The hardness of Olbyeossal was significantly affected by steaming and dehydration condition. The hardness of Olbyeossal showed the higher value for steaming at $121^{\circ}C$ than $95-100^{\circ}C$. The water binding capacity (WBC) and swelling power (SP) were higher steaming at $121^{\circ}C$ than $95-100^{\circ}C$. No significant differences on WBC and SP of Olbyeossal by dehydration condition were observed. As the sensory evaluation results, the combination in steaming at $121^{\circ}C$ and hot-air drying at 45 or $80^{\circ}C$ led to increase preference for appearance, color, taste and overall acceptability. These results indicate that steaming and dehydration condition were affecting factor on physicochemical characteristics of Olbyeossal.

Squid was dried on the fluidized-bed in the drying chamber filled with solid particles which were also fluidized with hot-air, and effects of the fluidized particles, the squid's height from the grid and the drying temperature on the drying rate and quality of the squid were observed The mechanism of moisture transfer during the falling rate period was also derived. 1. Sodium chloride was found to be the most suitable fluidized particles and at an air velocity of 3.8 m/sec, optimal fluidization state of this particle was obtained. 2. Uniform profiles of temperature were obtained at a point 4 cm above the grid and the location of squid on the fluidized-bed observed to be suitable when it was 4 cm above the grid. 3. At an air velocity of 3.8 m/sec and when the location height of the squid on the fluidized-bed was 4 cm, the optimal temperature for the drying time which is required to reduce the moisture from 80.8% to 18-22% was 8.5 hours. 4. Drying data followed the empirical equation of unsteady state diffusion $log\;(\frac{W-We}{Wc-We})=-m{\theta}$ in the region of the moisture contents measured and the drying constant (m) was calculated as $0.32hr^{-1}$. These results suggested that the migration of moisture during the falling rate period is due to a diffusion type mechanism. 5. The short constant rate period was observed in the early stage and thereafter, drying was controlled by the falling rate period, and the time ratio of the fluidized bed drying to the through circulation drying for reducing the squid's moisture contents to the same level at the same drying temperature was 1 : 1.4 6. Comparisons of fluidized-bed dried squid and sun dried squid in sale showed that there was no significant change in qualities such as external appearance and hydrogen ion concentration of dry product.
