This study investigated the quality characteristics of melon jam with RSM. The melon jam was prepared with 50~65% sugar, 0.5~2.0% pectin, and 0.1~0.5% citric acid. Sugar and pectin caused the increase in sweetness, Hunter's colorimetric characteristics (a, b), and firmness. Citric acid caused decrease in pH, sweetness, firmness. Sensory evaluation results showed that preferences for the melon jam increased as sugar, pectin, and citric acid approached their optimum values and then decreased as they exceeded optimum levels. Consequently, the proposed optimum levels in the ingredient formulation for manufacture of the standard melon jam were 59.0% sugar, 1.4% pectin, and 14.9% citric acid, as based on both numerical and graphic statistical analyses. Ultimately, this study was expected to contribute to the commercialization of melon jams of high quality.

Influence of garlic on the quality characteristics of apple jam was investigated. Apple jams with various amounts of sugar and garlic were prepared, and their sweetness, color difference, and instrumental texture were evaluated. The results were as follows: 1. When equal amount of sugar was added, the sweetness of apple jam decreased as the garlic content increased. 2. As the garlic content increased, the lightness and yellowness tended to be high and the redness and ΔE tended to be low, resulting that the color of apple jam was improved. 3. As the sugar content increased, the hardness and adhesiveness of the jam tended to increase when garlic was added at 10%. 4. Apple jam with 60% sugar and 10% garlic was the best in adhesiveness, glossiness, and overall quality by sensory evaluation. As the addition of garlic did not cause any significant difference in flavor, cooked garlic could be applied in apple jams.

The characteristics of radial thickness of ice jam at the center part of channel bends were analyzed briefly in this paper. Jam thickness in channel bends increases both toward the inner bank, and dowmstream. For this study, slope at the jam's underside was assumed to be liner with similarity of radial slope of bed in alluvial bends. Radial slope at the jam's underside in floating ice elements was estimated using the force equilibrium theory in the radial direction. The eqution which can be estimated the radial slope of ice jam was suggested using Falcon and Kennedy's bed layer theory. Experimental data, which were measured at the center part of cross-section in a single 180-degree bend, were compared to the calculated values using the suggested equtions. The result shows that the calcultated values were smaller than the measured ones. Ot is considered that the estimated value of shear stress in the radial direction may be smaller than the actual and two-layer model may be not suibable for alluvial bend flow.

Influence of onion on the quality characteristics of strawberry jam substituted with 50% fructo-oligosaccharide for sucrose was investigated. Fructo-oligosaccharide strawberry jams with 10, 20, 30, 40% onion in place of strawberry were prepared, and their moisture content, pH, total acidity, color, spread. sweetness, reducing sugar, residual anthocyanin, instrumental texture and sensory characteristics were evaluated. Moisture content of fructo-oligosaccharide strawberry jams with onion was lower than that of strawberry-only control jam with an exception of 10% onion jam. As the addition rate of onion increased, pH increased, total acidity decreased. The lightness and redness decreased with addition of onion, while yellowness was increased. As the addition rate of onion increased, spreadmeter value increased. The sweetness of fructo-oligosaccharide strawberry jams decreased with addition of onion. More of onion added, reducing sugar content of fructo-oligosaccharide strawberry jams decreased. As the addition rate of onion increased, residual anthocyanin of fructo-oligosaccharide strawberry jams decreased. As the addition rate of onion increased. instrumental texture measured in 25% strain, hardness, fracturability, adhesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, resilience of fructo-oligosaccharide strawberry jams decreased, while springiness, cohesiveness of fructo-oligosaccharide strawberry jams with onion was higher than that of strawberry-only control jam with an exception of 10% onion jam. As the addition rate of onion increased, instrumental texture measured in 30% strain, hardness, adhesiveness, gumminess. chewiness, resilience of fructo-oligosaccharide strawberry jams was lower than that of strawberry-only control jam with an exception of 10% onion jam, while fracturability of fructo-oligosaccharide strawberry jams decreased with addition of onion, springiness, cohesiveness of fructo-oligosaccharide strawberry jams increased with addition of onion. In sensory evaluation, as the addition rate of onion increased, sensory evaluation of fructo-oligosaccharide strawberry jams decreased, obtained fairly good score to 10, 20% onion jam.

The purpose of this study is to find out the optimal mixing ratios of three different amounts of pectin, sugar and citric acid for preparation of garlic jam through response surface methodology(RSM) based on the sweetness, pH, color, sensory and texture test. As the sucrose content increased, the sweetness, cohesiveness, color, flavor, gloss and overall palatability of garlic jam tended to be high and the lightness tended to be low. As the pectin content increased, the adhesiveness of garlic jam tended to increase. As the citric acid content increased, the overall palatability of garlic jam tended to be high and the pH tended to be low. The Pectin levels were included 1.8-2.1g, sucrose levels were included 325-342g and citric acid levels were 5.8-6.1g. The optimal mixing ratios of a pectin, sugar and citric acid for manufacturing the best quality of garlic jam were 2.0g, 334g and 6.0g, respectively.

Produced by steaming mature silkworms, HongJam is a natural functional food with various health-promoting effects. The current standard HongJam production protocol involves freezing and freeze-drying steamed mature silkworms for convenient long-term storage and/or selling it to customers. However, freeze-drying HongJam requires a range of processes and costs, which have contributed to its high resale value. In this study, we found that the cost of manufacturing HongJam powder could be reduced by homogenizing steamed mature silkworms using a high-speed blender and digital homogenizer, followed by spray drying. After the homogenized HongJam solution was digested by directly adding food-graded proteases, food-graded protease-digested homogenized HongJam solution was spray-dried. Food-graded digested protease or non-digested homogenized HongJam solutions could be used to produce food for special medical use for patients with general or specific diseases. This more efficient HongJam processing protocol proposed in this study can facilitate the development of sericulture farms and related industries by reducing the production costs of HongJam and its associated products.

In the preparation of jam using Undaria pinnatifida sporophyll, effects of food ingredients to the jam rheology were investigated. The paste was prepared by crushing the sporophyll using chopper and homogenizer with 2.5 times water and then it was filtrated before to make a jam. The sporophyll jam was adjusted to 62$^{\circ}$Brix by heating and concentration. It was a similar to the commercial jam in the gel strength. Among the various treatments, the jam prepared with 60% (w/w) sugar, 0.75% (w/w) high methoxy (HM) pectin and 0.3% (w/w) citric acid showed best quality aspects of both texture profile analysis (TPA) and sensory evaluation. Addition of 0,08% (v/w) synthetic strawberry flavor and 0.5% (w/w) cinnamon powder to sporophyll paste gave a good masking effect for the undesirable sea mustard flavor.

The effects of sugar substances (oligosaccharide, xylitol and erythritol) as alternative ingredients to sucrose on the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of aronia jam were evaluated. The different types of sweeteners did not influence the pH, total acidity and sugar contents of the jam. The sucrose-containing jam showed the highest spreadness, while the oligosaccharide and erythritol-containing jams showed lower spreadness. In the chromaticity determination, the sucrose-containing jam showed the lowest L, a and b values compared with the other sweetener groups. There were no significant differences in the total polyphenols, flavonoids and anthocyanin contents in the jams. The antioxidant activity indicated by the DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities was over 70%. Sensory evaluation indicated the xylitol-containing jam to have the best preference in taste, flavor and overall acceptance. These results suggested that xylitol may be a good sugar substance in aronia jam.
