  • Aging effect of vacuum-packaged beef loins was investigated at $0\pm1^{\circ}C$ for 8 weeks. Hardness, chewiness, and shear force value of beef loins decreased steadily for the first 5 weeks of chilling period, but thereafter they did not changed significantly. Myofibrillar protein extractability, Mg-ATPase activity, and myofibrill fragmentation index of beef loins were increased for the first 6 weeks, and did not change for the rest period The Hunter's value in $L^{\ast},\;a^{\ast}\;and\;b^{\ast}$ of beef loin showed that no significant changes had occurred over the whole storage time. The palatability of beef loin was improved progressively for the first 5 weeks, but it became inferior thereafter. It can be concluded that the storage time to obtain optimum aging effect for the vacuum-packaged beef loin would be 5 weeks at $0^{\circ}C$ at the longest.

  • Gochujang samples with essential oils were evaluated for sensory including taste and, smell during various storage periods with the aim of developing improved high value-added products. The sensory testing was performed on Gochujang with 0.005% Zanthoxylum piperitum and Chrysanthemum indicum essential oils, extracted through steam distillation. During storage at 4 and $20^{\circ}C$ for 8 weeks, sensory testing was performed at 0, 1, 2, 4 and 8 weeks by trained panelists. Overall quality decreased in Gochujang samples containing Z.piperitum essential oil and increased in samples containing C.indicum essential oil, at 4 and $20^{\circ}C$. Samples stored at $4^{\circ}C$ were quality more then those stored at $20^{\circ}C$. Sensory evaluation was highest for Gochujang with C.indicum essential oil stored at $4^{\circ}C$. It is concluded that functional Gochujang can be developed by adding small quantities of essential oils. Increasing the amount of essential oil added is likely to affect the innate taste and flavor of Gochujang.

  • This study was carried out to investigate the cooking properties and lipid oxidation stability during storage at $4{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ when the various levels (5 to 20%) of doenjang (Korean fermented soybean paste) were added to pork patties cooked by pan frying (PF) and convection oven (CO). With increasing the addition of doenjang, cooking properties of pork patties revealed the improved cooking yield, less diameter reduction, and less thickness increase. Also, the shear force, hardness, and chewiness of pork patties were reduced. The PF cooking method showed better cooking properties than CO. Lipid oxidation expressed by the thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) values was significantly reduced by the addition of more than 5% doenjang (p<0.05). The TBARS values of cooked pork patties by PF were significantly lower than CO during the 8 days of the storage (p<0.05). The development of warmed-over flavor (WOF) in cooked pork patties was delayed as the amount of the doenjang was increased. It was suggested that the addition of doenjang and PF favorably affected the cooking properties and stability of lipid oxidation in pork patties.

  • This study introduced "Dongchundang Eumsikbeop" and examined its value as a reference. "Dongchundang Eumsikbeop" is a recipe book from the Head House of Eunjin Song Clan. As the author is unknown, the book is named after where it was found. "Dongchundang Eumsikbeop" records the recipes for 32 total foods, including 12 types of fermented foods, eight types of liquor, and six types of side dishes, etc. In "Jusiksiui", written by the same clan 100 years before, fermented foods account for 15% of its contents. On the other hand, this book assigns 34% of its space to fermented foods. It is assumed that the recipe book must have been compiled according to what households ate the most, as hostesses had to cook for their households due to financial difficulties at the time. In "Dongchundang Eumsikbeop", baking soda and alum were used as leavening agents for confectionery while sugar-based caramelizing was used for making soy sources, implying that modern food techniques were already applied. In short, this book provides a glimpse into the wisdom of hostesses of the Head House who improved recipes to suit changing times while adhering to tradition.

  • The quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of makgeolli added with different amounts of pomegranate powder (0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%) were investigated. Although pH was reduced with increasing concentrations of pomegranate powder, all pH values rapidly decreased for 2 days, and then gently increased afterwards. Total acidity increased until 3 days of fermentation and then slowly increased. Sugar and reducing sugar contents reached maximum levels after 1 day of fermentation and gradually decreased until 7 days. Alcohol content remarkably increased until 2 days and gradually increased until 7 days. The addition of over 10% pomegranate powder increased yeast count until 3 days of fermentation, followed by a decrease. In the sensory evaluation, color, flavor, sweetness, and overall acceptance decreased with increasing concentrations of pomegranate powder, and sourness and bitterness slightly increased. Early antioxidant activity improved according to the concentration of pomegranate powder, but addition of 15% and 20% pomegranate powders reduced antioxidant activity from 3 days of fermentation. In conclusion, addition of 10% pomegranate powder would be the most suitable to manufacture pomegranate makgeolli.

  • This study was conducted to prove the effect of irradiation on lipases (lipase AK, lipase AH, lipase PS-D, Lipozyme TLIM, Lipozyme RMIM and Novozyme SP435) which were used for interesterification reaction using batch type reactor. Through such interesterification, structured lipid (1(3)-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-3(1)-stearoyl, POS) was synthesized by lipase treated with irradiation at different doses (0, 3, 7, 14, 29 and 59 kGy) using canola oil, palmitic ethyl ester (PEE) and stearic ethyl ester (StEE). After the reaction, fatty acid composition of triacylglycerol (TAG) in structured lipid was analyzed to compare the lipase activity. The results showed that activity of the irradiated lipase AH, PS-D and Novozyme SP435 with certain dose (3 kGy) were slightly improved. Such change of lipase activity suggested that irradiation might affect on the interesterification properties. Especially, Lipase AK, Lipozyme TLIM and Lipozyme RMIM after at 3 kGy irradiation showed that content of stearic acid ($C_{18:0}$) was increased while palmitic acid ($C_{16:0}$) decreased in the interesterified products.

  • The feasibility of enhancing biological nutrient removal from an industrial wastewater was tested with food waste leachate and sugar liquid waste as external carbon sources. Long term influences of adding external carbon sources were investigated to see how the biological nutrient removal process worked in terms of the removal efficiency. The addition of the external carbons led to a significant improvement in the removal efficiency of nutrients: from 49% to approximately 76% for nitrogen and from 64% to around 80% for phosphorus. Approximately, 20% of the removal nitrogen was synthesized into biomass, while the remaining 80% was denitrified. Though the addition of external carbon sources improved nutrient removal, it also increased the waste sludge production substantially. The optimal observed BOD/TN ratio, based on nitrogen removal and sludge production, was around 4.0 in this study.

  • The aim of this work was to select suitable fermentation treatments for the efficient bioconversion of cactus (Opuntia humifusa Raf.) bioactive components with an improved radical scavenging activity for use as a nutraceutical. To obtain microorganisms for the microbial conversion of cactus, Leuconostoc mesenteroides ATCC8294, Lactobacillus plantarum KCTC 3099, Lactobacillus plantarum KERI 236 and Monascus pilosus KCCM 60029 (ATCC 22080) were used for fermentation. Fermentation by Lac. plantarum KCTC 3099 was the most effective at scavenging 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl hydrate (DPPH) and 2,2-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radicals and reducing iron (III). In particular, uronic acid levels showed a remarkable increase in fermentation. The polyphenol and quercetin content of the fermented cactus showed large increases from $108.65{\mu}g/mL$ and $2.71{\mu}g/mL$ to $227.83{\mu}g/mL$ and $9.73{\mu}g/mL$, respectively, showing a maximum level at 36 h of fermentation with Lac. plantarum KCTC 3099. Thus, cactus fermentation with Lac. plantarum is an useful process for the enhancement of antioxidant contents and activity of fresh cactus.
