The changes of the aerobic viable bacterial counts, the content of chemical components and the sensory evaluation in Kimchis which were prepared with Various ingredients (red pepper, green onion, garlic and ginger) and fermentation at $20^{\circ}C$ were investigated. Aerobic viable bacterial counts were suddenly decreased with fermentation, but it was decreased slowly from the second day. Salinity of Kimchis was $1.8%{\sim}2.0%$ and titratable acidify were lower in sample 2 (deleted red pepper) and 3 (deleted green onion) on the first day but sample 4 (deleted garlic) after the fifth day. Total sugar content was decreased from $1.8{\sim}2.7g/100g$ to $0.8{\sim}1.1g/100g$ during fermentation periods. Carbon dioxide content maintained relatively higher in sample 2 and 5 (deleted ginger) with fermentation. Volatile organic acid content showed no difference in all Kimchis with fermentation. During the whole fermentation period, appearance was the worst in sample 2. Texture, off-flavor and overall-eating quality were the worst in sample 4. Carbonated flavor and overall eating quality were the best in sample 5.

This study was conducted to determine the relative saltiness of $MgCl_2,\;K_{2}SO_4$ and KCl and evaluate the sensory characteristics of solutions and Kakdugi (Korean seasoned pickles of cubed radish roots) prepared with reduced amount of sodium chloride by replacement with varying levels of KCI. The relative saltiness of $MgCl_2$ and $K_{2}SO_4$, were $0.11{\sim}0.12(0.115)$ and $0.08{\sim}0.09(0.085)$ respectively, at the reference level of 0.5% NaCl. The relative saltiness of KCI varied from 0.52 to 0.76 as the reference level increased from 0.5 to 2.0% NaCl. The result of sensory evaluation on the mixed solutions of NaCl and KCI indicated that bitterness, metallic flavor and astringency increased with the increased levels of KCI. The addition of KCI slightly increased the firmness of kakdugi but there was no significant difference in firmness by the amount of substitution. Bitterness and off-flavor was enhanced with the increased levels of replacement especially when the level was higher than 50%. Saltiness, sourness and overall desirability decreased as the extent of the replacement increased. There were no significant difference in pH, acidity and firmness measured with Universal Testing Machine. The result of this study indicate that the replacement of NaCl with KCI at not more than 50% does not affect greatly the characteristics of kakdugi.

Jangachi(salted and fermented vegetable) has been made by Korean traditionally using several kinds of vegetables, which is a good source of variety of nutrients and vitamins. There are many methods for making Jangachi. Generally soy sauce Jangachi is made through two steps. First, as a pretreatment, vegetables are soaked in salt water. Second, soaked vegetables are fermented in various ingredients like soy sauce, sugar, garlic, ginger and so on. This study was performed to observe changes in contents of chemical components and sensory evaluation of pretreated perilla leaf. Perilla leaf was soaked in water with different levels of salt concentration(2, 5 and 8 %) and soaking time(1, 3 and 5 days). The optimal level of salt and soaking time was determined with the results of sensory evaluation by response surface methodology and analysis of composition. The moisture contents decreased as the levels of salt and soaking time increased. The moisture content of untreated sample was 87.5 % and when soaked for 5 days in the water of 8 % salt concentration, it became 78.27 %. pH of Perilla leaf was high in high levels of salt concentration and short soaking time. Total acidity was so opposite to pH that was low in high levels of salt concentration and short soaking time. In the water of 8 % salt concentration, total acidity was 0.14 % when soaked for 1 day, 0.20 % for 3 days and 0.30 % for 5 days. Salt contents became greater as the soaking time increased. As the results of puncture test, soaked Perilla leaf's toughness increased as the levels of salt increased and soaking time decreased. Among the sensory attributes, greenness increased as the levels of salt concentration increased when soaked for more than 3 days. Saltiness and bitterness became greater as the levels of salt concentration increased. Perilla flavor decreased with the short soaking time. Off-flavor increased with the increased levels of soaking time and decreased salt concentration when soaked for more than 3 days. Toughness decreased as the levels of soaking time increased. Crispness increased with the increased levels of salt concentration. The condition of pretreated Perilla was optimum when it soaked for 42 hours in 4 % salt concentration.

The aim of this study was to develop rice cookies based on 'Goami 2' rice, and made with sesame (white and black) and perilla seeds. Furthermore, we studied the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of the cookies as well as the alternative effects of the sesames or perilla seeds for butter, where we substituted the sesames or perilla for 30% of the total butter. The pH values of the cookie doughs made with the sesames or perilla seeds were significantly different (p<0.001), whereas the spread factors of the doughs were not significantly different. The Hunter color L-, a-, and b- values were significantly different for the cookies made with the added sesames or perilla seeds (p<0.001). The brittleness of the Goami 2 rice cookies (control) was significantly higher than that of the cookies made with the sesames or perilla (p<0.001). In a descriptive analysis performed by 8 trained panelists, the following sensory characteristics: yellow, black, sweet taste, nutty taste, nutty odor, oily flavor, and off flavor, were significantly different among the cookie samples. In a consumer test by 50 women students, the Goami 2 rice cookies were preferred in the following order: Goami 2 rice cookies with no additions > black sesame cookies > white sesame cookies > perilla cookies. In conclusion, some physicochemical and sensory characteristics of the cookies were different, in relation to being made with or without the sesame or perilla seeds. However, because of the small difference in acceptance among the cookies, the sesame and perilla rice cookies show strong potentials for consumer acceptance. Moreover, the black sesame cookies were more acceptable in terms of butter substitution for the cookie preparation.

Shelf-life of pork packaged under $CO_{2}$ was observed and the optimal volume of $CO_{2}$ gas was determined. High gas barrier film, EVOH($CO_{2}$ permiability; 1 $cc/cm^{2}{\cdot}24\;h{\cdot}atm$) was used as packaging material and the volume ratios of sample to $CO_{2}$ of 1 : 1, 1 : 3 and 1 : 5 were tried using the control of vacuum packaged pork. To ev.3luate quality of pork cuts, total plate counts, TBA, color and sensory score were monitored during the storage at $4{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ for 31 days. TPC of vacuum packaged pork increased up to $4.6{\times}10^{6}\;CFU/cm^{2}$ in 24 days while that of $CO_{2}$ gas packaged pork $4.5{\times}10^{5}\;CFU/cm^{2}$ at the same storage period, and it took 7 days more for gas packaged pork to reach the same TPC count. There was no significant difference in TBA value between vacuum packaged and gas packaged pork. In the color L and a values were not affected by treatment but vacuum packaged pork cuts showed higher b value than gas packaged pork. According to sensory evaluation, gas packaged pork showed less off flavor, better flavor and freshness than vacuum packaged one (P<0.05).

This study was carried out to investigate the keeping quality of market milks collected from several dairy processing companies. Microbiological, chemical, and sensory properties of Intra-high temperature(UHT) treated milks stored at 5, 10, 15t were evaluated during the storage of 154days. No significant difference during the storage was shown in bacterial counts, pH and titratable acidity. Standard plate count(SPC) was remained less than 20,000 cfu/ml after 15 day storage at 5, 10, 15$^{\circ}C$. Also, Psychrotrophic bacterial count and Coliform count were not detected or detected at low level. The pH ranged from 6.55 to 6.83 and the titratable acidity ranged from 0.13% to 0.16%. In sensory evaluation, UHT milks showed normal flavor until 10days, but thereafter off-flavor was slightly developed. Consequently, UHT milks remained in good quality when stored at 5$^{\circ}C$,10$^{\circ}C$t until 15days except sensory properties. According to this experiment, the shelf-life of UHT milk can be extended to 10 days, even though maintaining the storage temperature strictly below 10 t in milk market is not easy.

This study was conducted to investigate the preservative effect of low molecular weight chitosans on kimchi(2% salt concentration) during fermentation at $20^{\circ}C$. The pH and total acidity of control kimchi were lower and higher, respectively than those of kimchi samples containing chitosan. Reducing sugar content tended to be lower in control kimchi than in kimchi samples containing chitosan until 6 days of fermentation. Malic acid content was lower in control kimchi than in kimchi samples containing chitosan until 4 days of fermentation. Succinic acid content was higher in control kimchi than in kimchi samples containing chitosan at the 2 days of fermentation. Content of lactic and acetic acid also was higher in control kimchi than in kimchi samples containing chitosan at the 4 days of fermentation. The number of total microorganisms and those of microorganisms of Leuconostoc genus and Lactobacillus plantarum were higher in control kimchi than in kimchi samples containing chitosan. The number of microorganisms of Leuconostoc genus was lower in kimchi samples containing chitosan with the lower molecular weight chitosan than those with the higher molecular weight chitosan. Intensity of sensory sour taste and staled flavor were higher in control kimchi than in kimchi samples containing chitosan. There was not much difference in sensory firmness among kimchi samples, but control kimchi was evaluated slightly weaker than kimchi samples containing chitosan. Off-flavor was evaluated as weak in all the kimchi samples.

The anchovy, Engraulis japonica, were prepared with two different saltconcentration of 20%, 10% which was added 2, 5, 8 and 10 % of grind garlic(LSA 1, 2, 3, 4) and garlic juice(LSB 1, 2, 3, 4), respectively. The changes of such factor during fermentation of anchovy as general composition, salt concentration, titrable acidity and sensory evolution were analyzed. In addition, chewiness, taste, garlic flavor and off-flavor wastested it's results were belived that the more garlic amounts added the more rotten smell has been disappeared. In the view of sensory perception. sample of 90 days fermentation is supposed as the best period of fermentation. The contents of moisture and crude fat decreased while, those of ash and crude protein were changes little during fermentation of low salted anchovy. Titrable acidity decreased in all experiment groups during anchovy fermentation, its contents at 30 days fermentation were ranged between 1.4~ 1.8g/100g, but it dramatically decreased to 0.6~l.1g/100g at 90 days fermentation.
