Effects of gamma irradiation on pigments of beef was investigated by determination of the Hunter's color values and pigments such as myoglobin, metmyoglobin and oxymyoglobin after gamma irradiation up to 5 kGy in air or vacuum package for 7 days. 'L' and 'b' values increased but 'a' value decreased with the elapse of the storage period. But, 'L', 'a' and 'b' values of irradiated beef were lower than non-irradiated beef. Myoglobin decreased but oxymyoglobin and metmyoglobin increased with the elapse of the storage period. Myoglobin decreased but oxymyoglobin and metmyoglobin increased with gamma irradiation up to 5 kGy. In regard to packaging methods, vacuum package did not affect pigment of the beef as did air package.

The purpose of this study was to determine the optimum sodium concentration (0~8%), soaking time (4~20 min) and storage time (0~60 day) for preparation of persimmon jangachi with kochujang sauce using response surface methodology. Physicochemical properties (salinity, pH, Hunter's color value, cutting force, and sensory evaluation) of persimmon kochujang jangachi were analyzed during storage at $20^{\circ}C$ for 60 days. When the proximate composition of persimmon was analyzed, moisture content, crude protein content, crude lipid content, and crude ash content were 85.41%, 0.51%, 0.22%, and 0.20%, respectively. For persimmon kochujang jangachi manufactured with different sodium concentrations, soaking times, and storage times, salinity, pH, Hunter's color value of L, a, and b, color, flavor, taste, texture, and overall preference were represented by a quadratic model. Cutting force was represented by a linear model pattern. In conclusion, the optimal formulation for persimmon kochujang jangachi, as assessed by numerical and graphical optimization methods, was a sodium concentration of 6.91%, soaking time of 11.36 minutes, and storage time of 25.18 days.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the properties of Seolgiddeok by mixed ratio of jujube powder and sugar. The proximate composition, water holding capacity, Hunter's color values, texture, and sensory evaluations were examined in this study. The results are as follows. Among the proximate composition of the Seolgiddeok that was made of different ratio of Jujube powder and sugar, moisture content of the control group was 43.93%. As the amount ratio of Jujube powder increased, moisture content slightly increased, and content of crude protein and crude ash was higher. The water holding capacity of Seolgiddeok by mixed ratio of jujube powder and sugar was lower as the amount ratio of Jujube powder increased. The L value, which is Hunter's color values of Seolgiddeok by mixed ratio of jujube powder and sugar, was the highest in the control group. The a and b value was the lowest in the control group and became high as the amount ratio of the jujube powder increased. As amount ratio of jujube powder increased, the hardness, the springiness, the cohesiveness, the gumminess, and the chewiness, of Seolgiddeok became high, but adhesiveness became low. In a sensory evaluation of Seolgiddeok by mixed ratio of jujube powder and sugar, the preference of texture, mouth-feel, and appearance was the highest in the control group. The preference of color, flavor and overall preference were the highest in Seolgiddeok by mixed ratio of jujube powder of 75.0g and sugar 57.6g.

The effects of feeding citrus byproducts on the quality of Korean native chickens were investigated during cold storage. Two samples of Korean native chickens (39 weeks old, $1.30{\pm}0.5$ kg) were used for the study: T0 (chickens not fed citrus byproducts) and T1(chickens fed a 4% citrus byproduct diets since from age 17 weeks until 39 weeks old). The breast and thigh meat of each sample were vacuum-packed, and then used for experiments on change in Hunter's color values, acid values (AV), peroxide values (POV), thiobarbituric acid (TBA) values, electron donating ability (EDA), volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) and total plate count during storage for two weeks at 3C. Changes in $L^*$, $a^*$ and $b^*$ values were slower in T1 than in T0. T1 showed slower increment rates for AV, POV, and TBA values during storage, as well as better antioxidant activity, than T0. T1 showed slower increment rates for VBN and total plate counts during storage than T0. Thus, feeding citrus byproducts suppressed change in Hunter's color value, rancidity, and freshness in breast and thigh meat during storage, and resulted in higher EDA value (p<0.05), which implies that the diet has positive effects in maintaining high meat quality.

Electron beam (EB) was applied to study the sterilizing techniques for powdered red pepper and ginger by determining their quality over gamma radiation (GR) from the microbiological and organoleptic points of view. The samples showed high microbial loads, such as $10^5{\sim}10^6\;CFU/g$ in total aerobic bacteria, negligible levels in yeasts & molds and $10^2\;CFU/g$ in coliforms. EB irradiation at 5 kGy resulted in the reduction of microbial loads by 2 to 3 log cycles, thereby decreasing the levels of total bacteria to $10^2{\sim}10^3\;CFU/g$ and resulting in negative in coliforms. Decimal reduction doses $(D_{10})$ value on the initial bacterial loads in red pepper were $1.50{\sim}1.54\;kGy$ in EB and $1.68{\sim}1.80\;kGy$ in GR, while powdered ginger showed $1.30{\sim}2.27\;kGy$ in EB and $1.45{\sim}2.77\;kGy$ in GR, respectively. EB and GR showed a similar effect on microbial decontamination for both samples. Microbial populations in stored samples for 4 months at room temperature were not remarkably different from the initial loads in all samples. Irradiation caused little changes in Hunter's color parameters, but that were changable during storage. Sensory evaluations on color and odor of powdered samples indicated that no significant differences were observed among the all samples compared. These results revealed that EB irradiation at optimal dose levels for microbial control was not detrimental to the sensory quality of powdered red pepper and ginger.

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.

Fresh oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus) were gamma-irradiated at 0, 1, 2, and 3 kGy. The effects on various quality attributes were determined during storage at $5{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. Color changes were more prominent in the cap region than the stem part. At the start of storage increase of Hunter's L-value (lightness) was observed in the caps of 2 and 3 kGy-irradiated samples. The L-value was higher in the all irradiated samples during storage. The trend was different in the case of stem region, where L-value decreased upon irradiation, but remained high throughout storage. The ${\alpha}$-value declined, whereas the b-value increased following irradiation. Irradiation showed a dose-dependent effect on the firmness, which was clearer during storage, but the samples irradiated at 1 kGy maintained an overall better texture than other irradiated samples. The weight loss was also higher in the all irradiated samples during storage. The samples irradiated at 1 kGy showed good physical appearance without any fungal attack at the end of storage; however color change in cap region was quite apparent. The ultra-structural drastic effect of irradiation was understandable using scanning electron microscopy. E-nose analysis demonstrated a clear change in the volatile profiles of all irradiated samples. Although the effect of irradiation on quality characteristics was quite clear but the all irradiated samples were free from fungal attack that was observed in the case of control sample.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the quality characteristics of wheat flour Dasik added with different amounts (0%, 3%, 6%, 9%, 12%, 15%) of Hericium erinaceus powder. For the moisture contents by adding Hericium erinaceus powder, wheat flour dasik did not show significant difference. As the results of Hunter's color value by increasing Hericium erinaceus powder, L-value decreased and a-value increased. Texture evaluation showed that, as the amount of Hericium erinaceus powder increased, hardness, gumminess and chewiness increased while springiness and cohesiveness did not show significant differences. As the results of sensory evaluation, the wheat flour dasik containing 9% Hericium erinaceus powder had the highest color, taste, flavor and overall acceptability scores. In conclusion, 9% of Hericium erinaceus powder would be optimal for Hericium erinaceus wheat flour Dasik.

Jeungpyun was prepared with different ratios of makkulli leaven to water in order to examine the changes in its quality characteristics. The results on the height and volume of the samples showed that Jeungpykn prepared with the ratio of 1 makkulli leaven to 2 water showed the highest degree of fermentation. Texture profile analysis, Hunter's color and sensory evaluation of jeungpyun were carried out for 4 days from the day of its steaming, to see its quality changes. In texture profile analysis, the hardness, gumminess and chewiness increased in all samples as the time elapsed, and at the same time texture parameters were increased as the water ratio increased. As the water ratio increased, L value was increased; however, a value and b value were decreased. The results of sensory evaluation showed that Jeungpyun prepared with the ratio of 1 makkulli leaven to 2 water had the most favorable sensory qualities.
