The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of replacing sucrose with sugar alcohols (sorbitol, glycerol and xylitol) on the quality properties of semi-dried jerky. Total 7 treatments of jerkies were prepared as follows: control with sucrose, and treatments with 2.5 and 5.0% of sucrose replaced by each sugar alcohol, respectively. Drying yield, pH, water activity, moisture content, shear force, myofibrillar fragmentation index (MFI), 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) value, sugar content, and sensory evaluation were evaluated. Xylitol slightly decreased the pH when compared to the other sugar alcohols (p>0.05). The water activity of the semi-dried jerky was significantly reduced by treatment with glycerol and xylitol (p<0.05). The moisture content of semi-dried jerky containing various sugar alcohols was significantly higher than that of the control (p<0.05), while replacing sucrose with glycerol yielded the highest moisture content. The shear force of semi-dried jerky containing sugar alcohols was not significantly different for the sorbitol and glycerol treatments, but that replacing sucrose with 5.0% xylitol demonstrated the lowest shear force (p<0.05). The TBARS values of semi-dried jerkies with sugar alcohols were lower than the control (p<0.05). The sugar content of the semi-dried jerkies containing sorbitol and glycerol were lower than the control and xylitol treatment (p<0.05). In comparison with the control, the 5.0% xylitol treatment was found to be significantly different in the sensory evaluation (p<0.05). In conclusion, semi-dried jerky made by replacement with sugar alcohols improved the quality characteristics, while xylitol has applicability in manufacturing meat products.

Paprika oleoresin (PO) and artificial Kimchi flavor (AKF) were added to Kimchi to improve the sensory qualities deteriorated by gamma irradiation in terms of color and flavor. Optimum concentration of both PO and AKF resulting from the sensory evaluation was 0.2%. The redness and capsanthin contents of Kimchi decreased by gamma irradiation at 25 kGy during storage at $35^{\circ}C$. However, the redness and capsanthin contents of gamma-irradiated Kimchi was increased by the addition of 0.2% PO, and maintained during the storage at $35^{\circ}C$ for 30 days. The result from the sensory evaluation indicated that sensory qualities of gamma-irradiated Kimchi were effectively improved by the addition of PO and AKF during storage at $35^{\circ}C$. Therefore, the combined treatment of additives (PO and AKF) and gamma irradiation can be considered as an effective method to improve the redness and sensory qualities of Kimchi sterilized by high-dose gamma irradiation.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of mechanical processing (tumbler, tenderizer, injector) and Ganghwa mugwort extracts (GM) on the stability of chicken Neobiahni during storage for 10 days at $4^{\circ}C$. Six treatments of chicken Neobiahni were manufactured with the following conditions: CON (tumbler), CON-A (tumbler + 0.2% GM), T1(tenderizer) T1-A (tenderizer + 0.2% GM), T2 (injector), T2-A (injector + 0.2% GM). Methods: The pH, POV, TBA, and sensory characteristics of chicken Neobiahni during storage for 10 days at $4^{\circ}C$ were measured in triplicate. Results: The pH of chicken Neobiahni was in the range of 6.00-6.37, with the highest values in the treatments containing GM (CON-A, T1-A, T2-A). Mechanical processing had no significant effects during storage. The color values (lightness, redness, and yellowness) did not differ significantly in all chicken Neobiahni samples, whereas storage time had a significant effect (p<0.05). The mechanical processing combined with GM appeared to effectively control the POV and TBA levels of chicken samples during the entire storage period. In addition, sensory evaluation ratings (color, juiciness, flavor, tenderness, and overall acceptability) were improved by the mechanical processing and the addition of GM. Conclusion: These results suggest that the combination of mechanical processing and Ganghwa mugwort extracts is a useful technique for retarding lipid oxidation in chicken Neobiahni.

This study investigated the effects of various naked barley starch contents (0, 0.67, 1.34, 2.0, and 2.67 wt%) in surimi mixtures for 3D printing. Adding starch to surimi altered its texture, potentially reducing production costs. Unheated surimi became less firm with higher starch content. After heating, there was an increase in hardness, adhesiveness, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, and resilience, peaking at 1.34 wt% starch. Compared to the negative control, starch-added heated surimi had a tougher texture. The color values (L^*, a^*, and b^*) decreased after heating, with no significant change in shearing force with increasing starch content. Sensory evaluation indicated improved smell, texture, hardness, elasticity, and preference over the negative control. Higher starch content increased hardness for 3D printing suitability with no significant difference above 1.34 wt% starch indicating this is the most appropriate content. Naked barley starch enhanced surimi strength without affecting smell and preference, suggesting it as a potential surimi additive.

This study was conducted to examine the effects of a supplemented Chungkukjang diet on oxidative stress and antioxidant nutrients in Streptozotocin (STZ, 45 mg/kg of BW, IP injection)-induced diabetic rats. Diets that contained soybean Chungkukjang powder (SC), Yakkong Chungkukjang powder (YC), and Yakkong Chungkukjang powder with black food added (YCB) were administered to the STZ-induced diabetic rats for seven weeks. The increased lipid peroxide contents of their serum and liver were slightly controlled by providing them three types of Chungkukjang. The retinol level in the serum was 7.5 times higher in the STZ-induced diabetic group after the provision of YC. The total antioxidant capacity (TAC) level in the serum was higher in the STZ-induced diabetic group after the provision of YCB. Also, the retinol and tocopherol levels in the liver of the STZ-induced diabetic rats increased after they were provided YCB, and the decreased reduced glutathione (GSH) /oxidized glutathione (GSSG) level in their liver improved after they were fed a diet that contained YC. Moreover, the decreased anthocyanin level in the liver of the STZ-induced diabetic group improved after the provision of three types of Chungkukjang powder. These findings suggest that the Chungkukjang diet is a valuable food for the management of the health of diabetic patients and for the prevention of diabetic complications.

Three hundred and twenty-four 1 day old chicks were used to determine the effects of fat source and energy to protein ratio on growth performance , carcass composition and the efficiency on nutrient utilization. Chicks were assigned. in a completely randomized design, to 3*3 factorial arrangement of treatments. Chicks received one of three fat sources (n0 fat, tallow, corn oil) and one of three energy to protein ratios(16, 14 and 12kcal ME/g CP). All diets were formulated to be isocaloric(3.2Mcal ME/kg diets) using published ME values for the diet ingredients. Addition of tat to the diet increased ADG, average daily feed intake, and gain to feed, Chicks fed diets containing fat had increased percentage body DM and ether extract(EE), but percentage CP was not different, Chicks fed diets containing fat had increased efficiency of protein and energy deposition. Addition of fat ad either fallow or corn oil yielded similar results. Reducing the energy to protein ratio of the diet did not affect ADG or gain to feed, but tended to decrease average daily feed intake(p=0.80), as well as resulting in linear(p<0.05) reductions in body percentage DM., EE and also total EE. Increasing the energy to protein ratio did not affect percentage or total body Cp. Adding fat to poultry diets improved growth performance and the efficiency of growth chicks. Decreasing the energy to protein ratio did not affect growth performance, but reduced EE in the body of Chicks.

The synergistic antimicrobial effect of Achyranthes japonica Nakai (AJN) and Bifidobacterium extracellular factors against Clostridium difficile were measured using a turbidity method. Each broth supernatant of Bifidobacterium infantis ($68.8{\pm}0.02%$) and Bifidobacterium adolescentis ($33.2{\pm}0.2%$) obtained by adding ethyl acetate soluble fractionate from A. japonica Nakai ethanolic extracts (AJNEA, 100 ppm, no inhibition) showed high synergistic antimicrobial activity against C. difficile. In addition, the antimicrobial activity in a laboratory medium and yogurt products against C. difficile were evaluated. In yogurt prepared with a starter 5 (Lactobacillus acidophilus: Streptococcus thermophilus: B. adolescentis =1 : 1 : 1) and a starter 4 (L. acidophilus: S. thermophilus: B. infantis=1 : 1 : 1) and 0.5% AJNEA powder, high antimicrobial effects were recorded that measured 79.0 and 65.2%, respectively. The results indicated the potential of AJN extract for use as an antimicrobial agent. In addition, the efficiency of the antimicrobial activity of the extracts was further improved in combination with lactic acid bacteria, which suggests that they have the potential to be used as a highly effective antibiotic-tolerant microorganism prevention system. Such a strategy can be used for alternative drugs or functional food additives for treatment of antibiotic-associated diarrhea.

This study investigated the quality of noodles containing different amounts of collagen powder. Noodles were prepared at ratios of 1, 3, 5 and 7% collagen power based on flour weight. The water binding capacity of the collagen powder was higher than that of flour. The rate of weight increase and volume increase of the noodles as well as the pH and turbidity of the soups were significantly increased with increasing amounts of collagen powder. The noodles showed decreased L and a values, and increased b values with increasing collagen powder in the flour composite. Hardness, springiness and chewiness of cooked noodles increased significantly with the increase in collagen powder content. cohesiveness and brittleness decreased with increasing amounts of added collagen powder. DPPH radical scavenging activity was improved significantly the addition of the collagen powder. Finally sensory evaluation results indicated that the noodles containing 1, 3% collagen powder had higher quality as compared to the other samples. Overall the results suggest that collagen powder is effective for improving the appearance and texture of noodles.

In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of low-temperature encapsulation on the viability of Weissella cibaria CMU under harsh conditions and in freeze-dried foods during storage. The capsules were prepared by gelation of sodium caseinate at different concentrations (5%, 6%, 7%, and 8%) with a combination of 0.5% gellan gum and 2% $glucono-{\delta}-lactone$. The size distribution of the capsules was determined using a Mastersizer 3000 laser diffraction particle size analyzer. Scanning and transmission electron microscopy revealed that the capsule with 6% sodium caseinate had a smooth and rounded external surface, with reproducibility. The acid, bile, and heat tolerances of the encapsulated cells were significantly higher than those of the control under prolonged acid (5 h), bile (12 and 24 h), and heat (2 h) exposure, respectively. During storage for up to 6 months at $4^{\circ}C$ or $25^{\circ}C$, the viability of encapsulated Weissella cibaria CMU in beef and vegetable rice porridge was effectively improved.
