Effective method for the preparation of Dongchimi juice was developed by addition of NaCi, sucrose and bydrolytic enzymes before fermentation and addition on Dongchimi juice during fermentation. The radish was ground and suspended in water(1:1, w/v) with addition of spices(garlic, green onion and ginger) followed by fermentation at $25^{\circ}C$. The addition of 2% NaCi and 0.5~2.0% sucrose resulted in significant increase of solid content and it was also improved by the addition of polysaccharide hydrolyzing enzyme during fermentation. When the fermented juices of pH 5.4 of 4.4 were added by 15% of total weight before(pH 5.4 juice)and during (pH 4.4 juice) fermentation, a significant increase in solid content after 24hrs of fermentation was resulted. The combined method of addition of 2% NaCI, 1.0% sucrode, 0.1% Viscozyme and 10% of fermented juice of pH 5.4 and 4.$ before and during fermentation improved solid content, reducing sugar, color and showed little effect on viscosity. The organoleptic characteristics were also improved by the combined method.

The quality characteristics of Campbell grape juice with different extraction processes (AE; autoclave extraction, HWE: hot water extraction, and EE: enzyme extraction) were investigated. The juice yields of the AE, HWE, and EE juices were 79.8%, 82.3% and 92.6%, respectively. The titratable acidity and soluble solids of the EE juice were significantly higher than those of the other extracts. There was no significant difference in the $L^*$ values of the juices, but the $a^*$ and $b^*$ values of the EE juice were higher than those of the other extracts. The viscosity of the HWE and EE juices was higher than that of the AE juice. The major free sugars in the grape juice were identified as glucose and fructose, and the highest organic acid content was found in the EE juice. The total polyphenol content of the EE juice was 55.7 mg% and was higher than those of the AE and HWE juices, which were 31.3 mg% and 39.5 mg%, respectively. Especially, the anthocyanin content of the EE juice was 22.1 mg%, which was two to four times higher than those of the AE and HWE juices, which were 4.5 mg% and 10.5 mg%, respectively. The EE juice showed the highest antioxidant effect, measured from the DPPH free radical scavenging activity and reducing power. In conclusion, we suggest that the enzyme treatment in the grape extraction was more effective than the autoclave and hot water methods.

The starters, 0.3% of Leuconostoc mesenteroides, Lactobacillus brevis and Lactobacillus fermentum, were added in radish juice to process the radish juice by single and mixed cultures. The radish Juice was fermented for 7 days at 25$^{\circ}C$, 20 days at 15$^{\circ}C$, and 36 days at 5$^{\circ}C$. When fermented at 25$^{\circ}C$, the number of lactic acid bacteria in the juice made with mixed culture was higher than that of the single culture. But, juice fermented at low temperatures (15∼5$^{\circ}C$), the addition of starters was not effective, although there were some differences by inoculation strains. Although there was a little differences by inoculation strains, the content of nonvolatile organic acid and L-ascorbic acid were found more in the juice inoculated with lactic acid bacteria than the juice not inoculated. When the single and mixed cultures at the optimal maturity were tested, the significant difference was found at 5% level except the yeasty and moldy smell and the unripe taste. According to the preference test, the mixed-cultured radish juice incubated at 25$^{\circ}C$with Lactobacillus brevis and Leuconostoc mesenteroides were evaluated superior to commercial Dongchimi. As a result, taste and quality of radish juice was improved by addition of starters.

The objective of this study was to determine the quality characteristics of cabbage juice fermented by lactic acid bacteria from Kimchi (Leuconostoc mesenteroides, Lactobacillus sakei SL1103, Lactobacillus plantarum LS5, and mixed starter). Cabbage juice was inoculated with lactic acid bacteria and fermented at 30 for 72 hrs. Changes in lactic acid bacteria number, pH, titratable acidity, Brix, and color during fermentation were analyzed. After fermentation for 24 hrs, cabbage juice fermented by mixed starter showed the highest number of lactic acid bacteria (9.45 log CFU/mL). The pH of all cabbage juice also decreased to 3.88~4.19 sharply, while cabbage juice fermented by Lac. sakei SL1103 showed the highest Brix ($8.38^{\circ}Bx$). Cabbage juice fermented by mixed starter showed the highest L value (56.83). In the sensory evaluation, cabbage juice fermented by a mixed starter (Leu. mesenteroides, Lac. sakei SL1103, and Lac. plantarum LS5) showed the highest preferences in taste, flavor, and overall acceptability. Therefore, cabbage juice fermented by mixed starter (Leu. mesenteroides, Lac. sakei SL1103 and Lac. plantarum LS5) has the highest potential for the development of fermented cabbage juice as an excellent bioactive functional food.

In this study, we investigated the quality properties and sensory evaluation of pudding added with peach (Prunus persica L. Batsch) juice and gelatin. The water content and pH of pudding decreased with increased peach juice content, whereas the sugar content increased. Further, the water content of pudding decreased with increased gelatin content, whereas the pH was constantly maintained and the sugar content slightly increased. Regarding the color of pudding, the L and b values decreased with increased peach juice content, whereas the L value increased with increased gelatin content. Regarding the texture of pudding, hardness and springiness decreased with increased peach juice content, whereas adhesiveness, chewiness, and cohesiveness all increased. All texture properties increased with higher gelatin content. In the sensory evaluation of color, flavor, taste, texture, and overall preference, pudding with 60% (w/w) peach juice and 1.5% (w/w) gelatin showed the highest values. These results demonstrate the possibility of using high value-added products for peach processing in the food industry, as the addition of peach juice and gelatin enhanced the quality and sensory properties of pudding.

Purpose: Bokbunja (Rub coreanus Miquel), mulberry and blueberry have been reported to have powerful anti-antioxidant and anti-aging activities. The purpose of this study was to compare the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of gravy sauce added with Bokbunja, mulberry and blueberry. Methods: Quality characteristics pH, brix, color and sensory characteristics of samples were evaluated. Antioxidant activities of samples were compared using total phenol, 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) cation radical scavenging and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activities. Results: Mulberry juice showed significantly (p<0.05) higher values of pH and $^{\circ}Bx$ compared to Bokbunja and blueberry juice. Bokbunja juice also had significantly (p<0.05) higher value of Color-L value than mulberry and blueberry juice. The total phenol contents and ABTS cation radical scavenging activity of Bokbunja juice were 236.50 mgGAE/100 g and 61.66%, respectively, which were significantly (p<0.05) higher than those of blueberry and mulberry juice. pH value of gravy sauce added with mulberry (MBS) was 4.67, which was significantly higher than that of the control gravy sauce (GS) and gravy sauce added with Bokbunja (BJS) which had the lowest (p<0.05) pH value 4.33. $^{\circ}Bx$ of GS (13.50) was not significantly different from that of MBS and BBS. However, BJS showed the lowest (p<0.05) value $12.33^{\circ}Bx$. Total phenol contents and ABTS cation radical scavenging activity of BJS were 78.09 mgGAE/100 g and 14.47%, respectively, which were significantly (p<0.05) higher than those of MBS or BBS. Values of sensory characteristics color, sour aroma and sour flavor of BJS were significantly (p<0.05) higher value than those of other samples. Conclusion: Bokbunja juice and gravy sauce showed higher antioxidant activities and higher acceptance test compared to blueberry and mulberry. Thus, Bokbunja has the potential to be added to as high value products in the food industry.

Color of kimchi juice was measured instrumentally to evaluate the quality of Korean cabbage kimchi during fermentation at 4$^{\circ}C$ and 16$^{\circ}C$ . These results were compared with those of chemical analyses of kimchi juice and sensory evaluation for kimchi. Chemiral analyses and sensory evaluation showed that the kimchi has reached pH 4.3, the pH value under an optimum ripening period, after 3-days fermentation at 16$^{\circ}C$ with almost the highest contents of vitamin C and carotenoids as well as desirable sour taste and texture. At 4$^{\circ}C$ the kimchi was unripened after 6-days fermentation. At 16$^{\circ}C$, $L^{*}$ value of kimchi juice did not show any significant change during fermentation periods. However, $a^{*}$ value increased until day 4$^{\circ}C$ and thereafter decreased sharply. $b^{*}$ value increased until day 3 and then showed no change. High correlations were seen between volume of kimchi juice, pH, total acidity and $L^{*}$or $b^{*}$ value, and between carotenoid content and $a^{*}$ value, respectively. It was desirable to use color $a^{*}$ or $b^{*}$ value of kimchi juice to evaluate the quality of kimchi. The kimchi was under an over-ripening period when $a^{*}$ value was equal to or lower than the initial value, or when $b^{*}$ value was almost constant. Predicting an optimum ripening period was possible by using a proportional value of $a^{*/}$ $b^{*}$ , i.e., unripening period, 1 $\geq$ and near 1 ; optimum ripening period, near 0.8 ; over-ripening period, < 0.8.eriod, < 0.8.d, < 0.8.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of jujube wines produced from various fruits (Campbell Early, aronia, apply). Before the preparation of jujube wine, jujube juice was extracted using hot water ($100^{\circ}C$, 2 hr). Different blends of jujube wines were produced by blending jujube juice with various fruits using Saccharomyces cerevisiae. After 18 days of fermentation, the alcohol content of jujube wines ranged between 11.5~12.7%. The pH of the wine ranged from 3.31 to 3.53 and the total acid content from 0.47 to 0.68%. The hue value of jujube wines ranged from 0.88 to 2.21 and the color intensity ranged from 0.93 to 6.29. The brightness of jujube wines ranged from 32.35 to 92.47, the redness from 0.85 to 59.05, and the yellowness from 17.35 to 51.02. By combining aronia with jujube juice, a significant increase in the total polyphenol content and the antioxidant activity (the DPPH radical scavenging activity) of the wine was observed. The total polyphenol content (401.77 mg%) and the antioxidant activity (76.29%) were the highest in the jujube wine blended with aronia. The total anthocyanin content of jujube wines ranged from 81.66 to 135.98 mg% and the tannic acid content from 42.48 to 316.36 mg%. Based on the results of the present study, we suggest that jujube wine produced by blending jujube juice with aronia had excellent quality as well as quality characteristics of the wine.

In this study, we investigated the quality characteristics of curd yogurt with different content of Rubus coreanus Miquel juice. Yogurt was fermented with three kinds of lactic acid bacteria(Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus casei). The changes of quality characteristics were investigated during fermentation and an acceptance test was performed after fermentation. The pH was decreased on the whole, and titratable acidity was gradually increased during fermentation. The number of viable cells was increased in case of yogurt with 1% to 4% Rubus coreanus Miquel juice, while it was inhibited in the sample with 6% and 7%. There was similar content in composition of protein, lactose, FFA, TS and NFS of curd yogurt after fermentation. Color value of curd yogurt with Rubus coreanus Miquel juice was higher in L(brightness), a(redness) and b(yellowness), compared with the control. Sensory attributes of color, odor, taste, after taste and overall acceptability of the curd yogurt with 3% Rubus coreanus Miquel juice showed highest preference among samples.

Objective: Meat quality characteristics and sensory attributes were evaluated in three age groups (12, 18, and 24 mo) of one-humped camels of the Saudi Arabian Najdi breed. Methods: Thirty-six male camels (12 for each age group) were used. The Longissimus dorsi muscle from each carcass was divided into three parts and subjected to three ageing periods (1, 5, or 10 d) and evaluated for shear force, myofibril fragmentation index (MFI), expressed juice, cooking loss, and sensory attributes. Results: Age had a significant effect on shear force, MFI, expressed juice quantity, and organoleptic properties. Camels slaughtered at 12 mo exhibited lower shear force and MFI, and higher expressed juice quantity, tenderness, juiciness, and overall acceptability than those slaughtered at 24 mo. Ageing had a significant influence on shear force, MFI, expressed juice quantity, but not on cooking loss. Camel meat aged for 10 d exhibited significantly lower shear force values and expressed juice quantity, and significantly higher MFI compared to that aged for 1 d. However, ageing did not significantly affect sensory attributes, except for tenderness, in camels slaughtered at 18 mo. Conclusion: Both instrumental and sensory evaluations showed that young camel meat has desirable quality characteristics, with superior tenderness and juiciness.
