The principal objectives of this study were to analyze the physiochemical properties of four mulberry fruit beverages (MFBs) and develop descriptive analysis procedures for evaluation of their sensory characteristics. Soluble solid, free sugar, pH, acidity, chromaticity, flavonoid, and anthocyanin of MFBs were determined. All MFB samples showed significantly different physicochemical properties ($p$<0.01). Ten highly trained panelists identified the following 11 sensory attributes in the MFBs and defined the terminology for each attribute : turbidity, chromaticity for appearance characteristics, berry, grass, fermented, sweet, astringent, and sour for flavor characteristics, and throat hit, refreshing, and astringent for textural characteristics. There were significant differences in the 10 sensory attributes among the MFB samples ($p$<0.001). In color, the value of MFB3 was significantly higher than those of others ($p$<0.05). In taste and overall acceptance, the values of MFB2 were significantly higher than those of others ($p$<0.01, $p$<0.001). Descriptive terminology of the developed MFBs could explain the sensory attributes of the samples according to this result. Based on this, proper analysis and sensory evaluation techniques could be applied to other fruit beverages to establish their physiochemical characteristic and descriptive sensory attributes.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the physiochemical properties of blackberry fruit beverage(BFB) and to develop a descriptive analysis procedure for evaluating the sensory characteristics of BFB. The amount of soluble solid, free sugar, pH, acidity, chromaticity, flavonoid, and anthocyanin of BFB were determined. All BFB samples demonstrated significantly different physicochemical properties(p<.01). Ten highly trained panelists identified the following eleven sensory attributes in the BFB and defined by standardized terminology for each attribute; turbidity, chromaticity for appearance characteristics, berry, grass, fermented, sweet, astringent, and sour for flavor characteristics, throat hit, refreshing, as well as astringent grade for textural characteristics. There were significant differences in all the eleven sensory attributes of the BFB samples(p<.001). Descriptive terminology used in the BFB analysis was capable of classifying the sensory attributes of the BFB. Based on these results, the analysis method and sensory evaluation techniques used in this study could be reasonably applied to other fruit beverages for establishing similar physiochemical characteristic and descriptive sensory attributes.

This study was designed to compare various quality characteristics, such as nutrient composition and physicochemical and sensory properties of freeze-concentrated milk made by a newly developed continuous multi-stage process with those of evaporated milk. The freeze concentration process reduced the water content up to 73%. Most of the physicochemical properties of evaporated milk were different from raw milk; however the freeze-concentrated milk showed little difference from the raw milk. The thiobarbituric acid value and free fatty acid concentrations were significantly greater in the evaporated milk than in the freeze-concentrated milk. Several effects on sensory characteristics, such as off-taste, were significantly stronger in the evaporated milk. Overall, this study indicates that the newly developed freeze concentration technique results in improved physicochemical and sensory properties, and has little effect on most nutrient levels when compared with the evaporation process. Further research is necessary to further elucidate the chemical and sensory properties of freeze-concentrated milk.

This study was undertaken to investigate the effect of cereals on the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of Noti. Noti is one of Korean traditional pan-fried glutinous cereal cakes. Noti made from the steamed glutinous rice flour, glutinous Chinese millet flour, glutinous millet flour or glutinous Indian millet flour is saccharified with malt, and then pan-fried. Noti also has sweet taste without sugar added. In addition, Noti has elastic characteristic, high calorie and good flavor. Long storage makes it better taste. In this case, Noti was made from the steamed glutinous rice flour. By the sensory evaluation, color, flavor and moistness were unfavorable according to the storage. Consistency was not strongly increased when comparing with the common rice cake depending upon the storage. The texture tended to increase by storage period. Optimum conditions of the safe storage and overall acceptability were to add 15% malt and keep 6hr saccharification time at 60$^{\circ}C$. During the period of storage for 90 days, reducing sugar content was similar, moisture content was low and maintained, and the acid value was not increased abruptly. The hardness was not increased rapidly and fungal growth was considerably low. Cohesiveness and elasticity were increased during storage.

This study was conducted to investigate the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of tofu prepared with the addition of lotus root powder (LRP). The moisture, crude ash, carbohydrate, crude protein, and crude lipid contents of the lotus root powder were 8.29%, 4.73%, 30.66%, 47.84%, and 8.48%, respectively. The yield rate of the tofu did not differ significantly according to the level of added LRP; however, there was a significant decrease in pH and a significant increase in acidity. The L and b values of the tofu decreased as the amount of LRP in the formulation increased, whereas the a value increased. Furthermore, hardness and cohesiveness increased significantly as the level of LRP increased. In sensory evaluation, LRP tofu had low scores in air cell size and a beany smell, but high scores in hardness. In terms of overall acceptability, the preferred tofu samples were the control and that containing 0.3% lotus root powder.

Seolleongtang, a traditional broth in Korea, is expected to become a hot global item for its unique flavor and healthiness. In this study, the correlations between sensory attributes and physicochemical characteristics were studied for the popular seolleongtang stock products through descriptive analysis, sensory evaluation and analysis of salt, soluble solid, protein, viscosity and color for the quality control. Our results indicate that color, concentration, viscosity, and freshness are important attributes in evaluating the quality of seolleongtang stock. There were significant differences between preference and sensory attributes among the stock products. Significant correlations were found between flavor and texture and overall acceptability, as well as beany odor and aroma. Preference and physicochemical aspects also correlated, and indicate that a range of salt, solubility, and viscosity are applicable as quality control factors in seollengtang stock.

The physicochemical properties and sensory characteristics of red pimiento kakdugi (radish kimchi) during fermentation at 1$0^{\circ}C$ were compared with red pepper kakdugi (control). The fermentation patterns of two kakdugies were similar, although total acidity, reducing sugar content and lactobacilli number of the red pimiento kakdugi were somewhat higher than those of control. The hardness and fracturability of the radish cubes of kakdugi were not significantly different from those of red pepper kakdugi during fermentation. The Hunter color L, a and b values of both kakdugies increased gradually until the 10th day, and then decreased thereafter. The AST A value and redness of red pimiento kakdugi were consistently higher than those of control, which is consistent with the sensory results. While red pepper powder kakdugi contains high concentrations of capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin, in pimiento kakdugi capsaicinoids were not detected by HPLC analysis. Also, capsainoids in red pepper kakdugi decreased gradually as fermentation proceeded. Sensory evaluation showed that the score of hot taste for red pimiento kakdugi was lower, compared with that of control (p < 0.05), whereas the score of over-all acceptability for red pimiento kakdugi was higher than that of control.
