The effects of phytase and cellulase treatment on the bioavailability of iron, calcium, and zinc in whole wheat flour and their food applications were evaluated in this study. Whole wheat flour was treated with phytase and cellulase either individually or in combination and incubated at 50℃ for 2 h; the concentrations used for the individual enzymes were 2%, 10%, and 20%. The concentration of the combination enzyme was 20% with a mixing ratio of 5:5. Total dietary fiber and phytate contents were reduced as the concentrations of phytase and cellulase increased. The bioavailability of iron, calcium, and zinc was notably improved after in vitro digestion in 20% cellulase, combination enzyme, and 20% phytase, respectively. Muffins made with cellulase- and phytase-treated whole wheat flour showed improved quality and bioavailability of minerals. Phytase- and cellulase-treated whole wheat flour may be useful for development of functional food products with improved bioavailability of minerals.

Drugs are often taken together with meals and there are numerous opportunity for food-drug interaction to occure. Food-drug interactions and their clinical consequences are very complex indeed. The composition of the meal, and the volume of fluid that is ingested often are decisive factors in food-drug interactions. Various formulations of a specific drug may behave differently. Solutions and suspensions seem to be less susceptible and enteric-coated preparations are more susceptible, to food interactions than are other dosage forms but exceptions to this rule do exist. Furthermore, generic and environmental factors, disease and other drugs cause considerable inter- and intraindividual variation in food-drug interactions. Also, eating habits are dissimilar in different parts of the world, and diets often vary greatly from day to day. The taking of drugs together with meals offers some obvious benefits. It may help to reduce gastrointestinal irritation and compliance is improved. On the other hand, in some cases food interferes seriously with drug absorption. The purpose of this review is to clarify the complexity of food-drug interactions, and to discuss interactions that may be of clinical importance.

The combined effects of smoking and boiling on the proximate composition, technological quality traits, shear force, and sensory characteristics of the Korean traditional boiled loin were studied. Cooking loss, processing loss, and shear force were lower in the smoked/ boiled samples than those in the control (without smoking treatment) (p<0.05). The results showed that the boiled loin samples between the control and treatment did not differ significantly in protein, fat, or ash contents, or pH values (p>0.05). The treated samples had higher score for overall acceptability than the control (p<0.05). Thus, these results show that the Korean traditional boiled loin treated with smoking for 60 min before boiling had improved physicochemical properties and sensory characteristics.

Levels of carbon dioxide gas, a metabolite of microbial growth, have been reported to parallel the onset of microbial spoilage and may be used as a convenient index for a packaged food's shelf life. This study aimed to establish a kinetic model of $CO_2$ production from perishable food for the potential use for shelf life control in the food supply chain. Aerobic bacterial count and package $CO_2$ concentration were measured during the storage of seasoned pork meat at four temperatures (0, 5, 10 and $15^{\circ}C$), and their interrelationship was investigated to establish a mathematical model. The microbial growth at constant temperature was described by using model of Baranyi and Roberts. $CO_2$ production from the stored food could be explained by taking care of its yield and maintenance factors linked to the microbial growth. By establishing the temperature dependence of the microbial growth and $CO_2$ yield factor, $CO_2$ partial pressure or concentration in package headspace could be estimated to a limited extent, which is helpful for controlling the shelf life under constant and dynamic temperature conditions. Application and efficacy of the model needs to be improved with further refinement in the model.

This study was undertaken to investigate college students' dietary behavior and consciousness of Korean traditional food during in 1996. 490 students in junlanamdo were asked to fill out the questionaries. The data was analyzed SAS package. The results were summarized as follows; 1. The average height and weight were 172.8 cm, 63.8 kg for male and 160.9 cm, 49.2 kg for female. Students' living their own home were 52.6% and self lodging students were 24.9%. 2 Eating type of college students appeared that they prefered to cooked rice at breakfast, dinner and lunch. 85.3% of college students prefer Korean food. Male have a meal for hunger and female for pleasure (p<0.002). 3. The standard of food choice were taste of food. Majority of college students(85.9%)) think that the Korean traditional food should be succeeded and developed. However, they want the taste of Korean traditional food to be changed for their preference (58.2%). Opinion of students on traditional food to be improved are the cookery (38.8%), the sanitation (26.7%), the presevation (24.7%), the taste (6.7%) and the nutrition (3.1%).

This research is to raise awareness of food safety by designing and supporting a hazard food information notification platform for consumers. To this end, the design was carried out by dividing the process into a data extraction process, an application screen design process, and a CNN-based food inference process. Data was collected through public data APIs and crawling, and it was sent to each activity screen designed for Android studios so that it could be output. As a result, when the platform is executed, information on hazardous food names, registration dates, food classification, manufacturing dates, recovery grades, recovery reasons, recovery methods, company names, barcode numbers, and packaging units can be intuitively and conveniently checked. In addition, CNN-based food inference processes allowed mobile cameras to infer harmful food and applied various quantization techniques such as Dynamic Range, Integer, and Float16 to compare the degree of improvement in inference performance. As a result, the group that applied basic quantization and treated device resources with GPU showed the greatest improvement in inference performance. Through this platform, it is expected that the reliability of food safety will be improved by making it more convenient for consumers to recognize food risks.

The concern about food security is rising as the unstable situation of food supply and demand due to the Covid-19 pandemic, climate change, and turbulent political situation. Korea's global food security index (GFSI), analyzed by the Economist Group, is considered good, but the level continuously decreases in comparing food security levels by country. In particular, Korea is highly dependent on food imports, and food and grain self-sufficiency rates continuously decrease. Therefore, increasing those rates to strengthen food security is urgent. Among the major grains, the self-sufficiency of wheat, com, and soybeans, except rice, is relatively low. Unlike the decrease in the annual rice consumption, the annual wheat consumption has been continuously maintained or increased, which is required public-private efforts to increase the self-sufficiency rate of wheat. Applying the government's policies implemented to increase the self-sufficiency rate of rice in the past will help increase the self-sufficiency rate of wheat. In other words, expanding wheat production and infrastructure, stabilizing supply and demand, and establishing a distribution system can be applied. However, the processing capability of wheat and rice is different, which is necessary to improve wheat quality and processing technology to produce consumer-preferred wheat-based products. The wheat and flour quality can be improved through breeding, cultivation, post-harvest management, and milling. In addition, research on formulation, processes, packaging, and storage to improve the quality of wheat-based products should be done continuously. Overall, food security could be strengthened by expanding wheat production and consumption, improving wheat quality, and increasing wheat self-sufficiency.

Functional additives such as methyl silicone, TBHQ and BHA/BHT have been evaluated for their effects on storage and frying stabilities of the vegetable salad oil. All test results strongly suggest that methyl silicone improved the frying stability and TBHQ improved the storage stability. BHA/BHT improved neither storage stability, nor frying stability of the vegetable saladoil. Based on the test results, it is recommended that methyl silicone in the range of $1.0{\pm}0.5ppm$ and TBHQ in the range of 200ppm be added to the vegetable salad oil for the improvement of frying and storage stabilities.

A standard $1\%$ w/v solution of CM-chitosan made from squid pen was added to milk at levels of $0.5\sim3\%$ (v/v) to improve the yield and rheological properties of cottage cheese by whey protein retention. Cheese curd did not form at levels higher than $3\%$ (v/v) CM-chitosan standard solution. Yield and total protein of cottage cheese increased up to $2\%\;by\;11\;to\;42\%\;and\;17\;to\;38\%$ respectively, compared to control cheese. Whey protein losses were decreased by 11 to $42\%$ and thus accounted for all of the increase in yield. Anomalous results were obtained at the $0.8\%$ level, which neither improved yield or whey protein retention nor stabilized rheological parameters, and at the $0.5\%$ level, which improved yield and total protein without increasing whey protein retention. Elasticity and cohesiveness of CM-chitosan-containing cheese were generally improved and stabilized during storage. Monitoring of cheese chromaticity values for four weeks revealed a delay in the onset of yellowing in cheeses with CM-chitosan compared to the controls, while the concentration of added CM-chitosan had little influence on cheese chromaticity. The addition of CM-chitosan solution could be applied directly to industrial scale cottage cheese-making without the need for any modification of the production process.

In order to investigate systematically characteristics of improved Kochujang in comparision with traditional Kochujang, changes of components in curing of two Kochujangs, enzyme activities of koji and Meju, and effects of salt and red pepper were measured. And it was found that the large differences of amino nitrogen and reducing sugar contents were appeared in the initial stage of the curing period, but the changes were parallel thereafter. The protease activity of koji was maximum in weak acidic pH and that of Meju was maximum in neutral pH. The optimum condition of substrate digestion was three hours at $60^{\circ}C$, and that was more effective than curing at room temperature. The activities of protease and saccharogenic amylase were decreased remarkably by adding salt and red pepper, Therefore, to decompose starch and protein effectively, the addition of salt and red pepper after substrate digestion was more favorable.
