As the blueberry content in batter increased, the pH of batter decreased According to the measured results about specific gravity of muffin batter, there was no significant difference among each batter including 0% 10% and 15% blueberry, while each 15% 20% and 30% dough showed significant difference (p<0.001). According to the results about general quality characteristics of muffins such as volume, weight and specific gravity, as the content of blueberry juice increased, the volume decreased. In terms of measuring specific volume, it decreased as the added amount increased According to measuring the chromaticity of muffins, as the blueberry content increased in the muffins, brightness and yellowness decreased while redness increased In terms of the measurement of texture, the hardness showed significant difference among all sample muffins (p<0.001). Significant difference was not shown in the springiness (p<0.05). As the amount of blueberry juice increased, the chewiness of the muffins was grown. The result showed a significant difference between samples in the adhesiveness (p<0.001). As the amount of blueberry juice increased, the adhesiveness of muffins also increased In the organoleptic test, a significant difference was shown in the color among all sample (p<0.001). The blueberry juice content of 20% showed highest figures with $7.12{\pm}0.67$. In terms of flavor, the content of 20% also showed highest figures among all samples with $7.16{\pm}0.62$ (p<0.001). Concerning the taste all samples showed a significant difference while 20% content did the highest figure. In the overall acceptability the content of 10% showed the lowest figure while 20% displayed the highest figure with 7.16. According to the quality characteristics of blueberry muffins, the best blueberry juice content would be 20% content group.

The objective of this experiment was to determine the effects of different levels of refined cod liver oil (RCLO) on laying performance, n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids composition (n-3 PUFAs) and the organoleptic evaluation of duck egg yolks. A total of 180 30 wk old laying Tsaiya ducks, at the beginning of peak production, were allotted into 6 treatments with 3 replicates each. Ducks were fed one of the 6 experimental diets, supplemented with 2% tallow (control) and graded levels of RCLO at 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6% to a corn-soybean diets, respectively, for 6 wks. All of the experimental diets were formulated to be both isocaloric and isonitrogenous. Feed and water were supplied ad libitum throughout the experimental period. The results indicated that the RCLO supplementation levels did not affect (p>0.05) egg production, egg mass, feed intake, feed efficiency or body weight change. Egg weight was the lightest when the ducks received the 6% RCLO diet. The eicosapentaenoic acid, docosahexaenoic acid, and total n-3 PUFAs contents in the yolks increased with increasing RCLO supplementation. The taste and general acceptability of the hard-boiled eggs were not significantly different among the treatments. However, a fishy flavor was much higher when ducks were fed diets supplemented with 5% and 6% RCLO diets.

Lactobacillus helveticus was inoculated to the fermentation liquid containing skin milk powder(SMT) plus soymilk, SMP plus isolated soybean protein(ISP), SMP plus ISP plus whey powder(WP) to increase the nutritional and economic value of commercial soy yogurt. The yogurt fermented with soymilk and SMP showed the lower acid production than of SMP and had significant beany flavor in the product. The yogurt prepared with ISP and SMP showed the higher cell number and lower acid production than that of SMP. Also, the partial substitution of SMP with ISP over 6%(w/w) produced less acceptable product due to gel production. The yogurt prepared by the partial substitution of SMP with ISP, WP and SMP showed the higher cell number and lower acid production than that of SMP and not bring about gel formation unlike the case of ISP. Sensory properties of yogurt substituted SMP with ISP and WP(38:62 mixture) below 4% were not significantly different from that of SMP and the sample containing the mixture over 6% and 0.067% artificial flavor showed lower sensory score due to beany taste than that of SMP. But increase of yogurt flavor up to 0.1% resulted in significantly high score in organoleptic acceptability. The separation of water occured in yogurt prepared by the combined mixture of ISP, WP and SMP, and this problem could be resolved by addition of Na-alginate and PGA at the concentration of 0.1%(w/w).

The application of Dongchimi liquid into Naengmyon broth for the improved eating quality of Naengmyon was scientifically explored by reviewing the quality properties of the product. Primarily, the optimum fermentation conditions for Dongchimi from which the liquid portion was extracted were pursued and the optimum mixing ratio was sought on the basis of sensory and microbiological properties of the product. The liquid portions which had been periodically extracted from Dongchimi at intervals of two or five days during fermentation at $10^{\circ}C$ were added to Naengmyon broth. The treatments were prepared with three levels, namely, basic broth only('A') and the ratios of 3:7(v/v, 'B') and 5:5(v/v, 'C') of Dongchimi liquid and basic broth, respectively. According to assessments of Dongchimi liquid on taste and intensity based on sensory analyses, the organoleptic factors such as color, smell, sour taste, carbonated taste, and overall acceptability were given higher values from day 11 to day 17 in all items. As for the assessment of Dongchimi liquid on intensity, color, sour odor, moldy odor, and carbonated taste have shown the increasing scores during with high intensities while those for clearness has stayed low. Most of the phenomena observed from the Naengmyon broth substituted with $30\%$ (Treatment 'A') and $50\%$ (Treatment 'B') of Dongchimi liquids with different storage periods ensued much of the previous fermentation pattern of Dongchimi itself. Organoleptic assessment on taste and its intensity showed that better(the best) scores could be obtained at between day 16$\~$25(17) and 13$\~$20(15) for Treatments A and B, respectively. The intensity scores of taste for color, smell, carbonated taste, sour taste, and mouthfeel were increased while those for clearness, palatability, and meaty ones were decreased with lapse of fermentation. The numbers of total cell and lactic acid bacterial counts of Dongchimi has increased until day 13 and then decreased in the later stages. Total cell count and lactic acid bacterial counts of Naengmyon broth also increased until the 13th day and then they began to decrease. It was also proven that slightly over-ripened Dongchimi liquid was more preferable for adding into Naengmyon broth. Granting the optimum ripening period of Dongchimi liquid itself to be 13 days, both Treatment A and Treatment B were evenly favored using Dongchimi liquids slightly over-ripened at days 13 to 17. However, Treatment A was more favored than Treatment B when Dongchimi liquid over-ripened for 20 to 26 days was used.

In order to improve the quality and yields of barley tea(water extracts), enzymatic hydrolysis was carried out with using three kinds of mired enzymes of ${\alpha}-amylase,\;{\beta}-amylase$ and protease. The barley treated with enzymes were the crushed , soaked and slightly roasted(light brown) Youngsanbori(hulless) and the physical, chemical and sensory characteristics were investigated. The results showed that enzymatic hydrolysis caused a signigicant increase in solid yields (80%) of barley tea, particularly with the mixed enzyme 5,000 which has higher activity of ${\alpha}-amylase$ than the other enzymes. The intrinsic viscosity of barley tea was reduced by enzymatic hydrolysis as the value of dextrose equivalent increased The Hunter L, a, b values was lower for the enzyme treated barley tea but showed not significant difference with reaction time. The organoleptic evaluation clearly showed that both intensity and acceptability of odor and taste was markedly Increased. The roasted nutty, and sweety odor and taste were particular in increase by mixed enzyme 5,000.

This study was performed to evaluate the physicochemical and quality characteristics of bread with Enteromorpha intenstinalis added. In order to compare the physical and organoleptic properties, 1 to 4% of E. intenstinalis powder was mixed with the flour. Among the physical characteristics of the dough, the absorption ratio in the farinogram and the degree of attenuation increased with increasing amounts of E. intenstinalis powder, whereas the development time, dough stability, the degree of extension, the degree of resistance, and R/E became reduced. In the amylogram, there was no difference in the gelatinization starting temperature among the samples, but the maximum viscosity gradually increased according to increasing amounts of E. intenstinalis powder. Also, a sensory evaluation was carried out in terms of acceptability (color, flavor, moistness, tenderness, mouth feel, and overall acceptability). Taken together, the 2% treatment showed the highest evaluation values, as compared to the other treatments.

The effect of flaxseed meal on broiler performance, carcass characteristics, alpha-linolenic acid contents, and organoleptic characteristics of chicken meat was studied during a 42 day experiment. Broiler chicks were randomly allotted to 4 experimental groups and fed iso-energetic and iso-nitrogenous diets containing flaxseed meal at 0, 5, 10 and 15%. Flaxseed meal did not affect the weekly body weight of broiler chicks during the first two weeks but thereafter weekly body weight reduced among flaxseed meal groups. At the end of $6^{th}$ week, birds fed on 15% flaxseed meal showed a reduction of 8% in body weight compared to the control group. Control group had significantly higher weight gain with slightly higher feed consumption and better feed conversion ratio (FCR), protein efficiency ratio (PER), and energy efficiency ratio (EER) than the flaxseed meal groups. Among the treatments, birds of 5 and 10% flaxseed meal groups had significantly better FCR, PER and EER compared to those of the 15% flaxseed meal group. The carcass characteristics data indicated a significant reduction in the eviscerated weight and breast yield at 15% flaxseed meal in the diet as compared to other dietary groups. However, the alpha-linolenic acid content in both breast and thigh meat was higher with an increasing level of flaxseed meal in the diets without affecting the sensory acceptability of meat. Based on the present study, up to 10% of flaxseed meal may be used in broiler diet to enhance the alpha-linolenic acid content in the broiler meat.

Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of dietary zinc supplementation of Friesian cows on chemical-nutritional and aromatic properties of Caciocavallo cheese after 7 days (C₇) and 120 days (C₁₂₀) of ripening. Methods: Twenty eight Friesian cows, balanced for parity, milk production and days in milk, were randomly assigned to 2 groups. The control group (CG) was fed with a conventional complete diet, while the experimental group (zinc group, ZG) received a daily zinc supplementation of 60 mg for kg of dry complete feed. During the experimental period, the milk yield was monitored and samples of milk and caciocavallo cheese were collected and analyzed for chemical-nutritional composition and aromatic profile. Results: The enrichment of dairy cows diet with zinc, did not influence milk yield and composition, however a marked reduction of somatic cell count was evidenced. Both in milk and cheese the ZG samples were characterized by a lower concentration of satured fatty acids and an increase in oleic, vaccenic and rumenic acids. The aromatic profile of dairy products was also positively affected by dietary zinc intake, with an increase in concentration of carboxylic acids, esters and lactones. Conclusion: The present results suggest a positive role of dietary zinc intake in improving the quality of bovine milk and related cheese, in particular for the increase in concentration of bioactive fatty acids such as rumenic acid. The changes evidenced in cheese through the analysis of the volatile profile, would be consistent with the development of interesting organoleptic properties, although further evaluations should be performed to confirm the consumer acceptability of these changes.

In order to give the unique flavour of traditional Doenjang (Korean-style soybean paste) to commercially manufactured soybean paste, the addition of Bacillus licheniformis and Saccharomyces rouxii was tried and their influences were investigated. The addition of B. licheniformis and S. rouxii in soybean paste decreased the content of reducing sugars. By the addition of B. licheniformis, the contents of amino type nitrogen and titrable acidity were increased. The content of ammoniacal nitrogen was reduced and ethyl alcohol production was increased by the addition of S. rouxii. The viable counts of molds showed the decreasing tendency during the aging and it was accelerated by the addition of B. licheniformis and S. rouxii. Acetaldehyde, acetone, ethylacetate, methyl alcohol, ethyl alcohol, propyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol and isopropyl alcohol were detected from the vapor of all tested ripen soybean pastes, while in a traditional Doenjang, isoamyl alcohol and isobutyl alcohol were not. The B. licheniformis and S. rouxii added sample showed richest free amino acid content. In organoleptic test the B. licheniformis and S. rouxii added sample showed the most excellent overall acceptability.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics of macaroons prepared using natural color materials (Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten (Re-N), mulberry leaf (Gr-N), pumpkin (Ye-N), and cocoa powder (Br-N)) and corresponding artificial food colorants (red (Re-A), yellow (Ye-A), green (Gr-A) and brown (Br-A)). The moisture content of macaroons prepared using natural color material was higher compared to the macaroons prepared using artificial food colorant. DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity was similar in both types of macaroons. Lightness and redness of Re-N, Gr-N, Ye-N, and Br-N macaroons were lower than Re-A, Gr-A, Ye-A and Br-A macaroons. Yellowness of Re-N was higher because of the browning reaction. The texture profile analysis revealed lower hardness when natural color powder was employed. In the sensory evaluation, overall acceptability was not significantly different between natural colored and artificial colored macaroons. As a result, macaroons with the natural color material were softer and showed higher antioxidative activity, however, organoleptic properties were not much different when compared with macaroons with artificial colors. Apparently, it is stated that more studies on the development of macaroons with more enhanced physical functionality and good taste using natural materials should be performed.
