This study was conducted to identify major dietary patterns of generally healthy Korean middle-aged women and to examine associations of the dietary patterns with socio-demographic, psychological, and physical characteristics. Data were drawn from the 2001 Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES), which is an ongoing national surveillance system. Healthy female subjects aged 40-64 years and provided the health interview examination and food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) data were included. We conducted factor analysis based on daily mean intake frequency of 26 food groups and identified 3 major dietary patterns, healthy, convenient, and alcohol-animal. The healthy pattern was characterized by higher intakes of fish, seafood, poultry, mushroom, seaweed, vegetable, tomato, potato, and fruit, the convenient pattern by processed meat and fish, ramen, noodle and rice cake, sweet snack, egg, bread, and fast food, and the alcohol-animal pattern by alcohol, poultry, meat, and fish. The healthy pattern was significantly related with higher socio-economic status, more stable family structure, healthier mentality, and sounder status of anthropometric and biochemical variables. Those with higher factor scores for the convenience pattern were found to be younger and having higher socio-economic status, higher subjective levels of health, and lower subjective levels of worry on health. Several physical characteristics significantly improved as the levels of the convenience pattern increased. The alcohol-animal pattern was significantly associated with several socio-demographic characteristics including a low education level, a young age, a small family size, and blue-collar jobs. Public health policy makers can utilize the study findings to select prior target populations with higher needs and to tailor dietary behavioral messages to lower chronic disease risks among Korean middle-aged women.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of dietary supplementation of vitamin C and Sea buckthorn on the performance, blood biochemistry and meat quality in old laying hens. A total 200 Hy-Line Brown laying hens (101 weeks old) were randomly allotted to 1 of 5 dietary treatments : (1) Basal : basal diet, (2) Vit. C : basal diet + 0.1% vitamin C, (3) SB 0.1 : basal diet + 0.1% Sea buckthorn, (4) SB 0.5 : basal diet + 0.5% Sea buckthorn, and (5) SB 1.0 : basal diet + 1.0% Sea buckthorn. Each treatment was replicated 4 times with 10 birds units were arranged according to randomized block design. Feeding trial lasted 4 weeks under 16L:8D lighting regimen. The diets were fed to hens on an ad libitum basis for 4 weeks. Result indicated that during feeding trial of the experiment, hen-day egg production and feed conversion ratio were not significantly influenced by treatments. However, feed intake was significantly (P<0.05) higher in Vit. C and SB treated groups than the basal during 1 wks and 3 wks. Egg weight was significantly (P<0.05) higher in basal and Vit. C than the SB 1.0 treatment. There were no differences in carcass yield during feeding trials. However, partial ratio (breast and neck) was significantly (P<0.05) higher in SB 0.5 than other treatment. There were no differences in the level of leukocytes and erythrocytes. There were no significant differences on proximate analysis (DM, crude protein, crude fat, and crude ash), meat color, water holding capacity, cooking loss, and fatty acids concentrations. In conclusion, dietary supplementation of vitamin C and Sea buckthorn to the diet of old laying hens might be a potential ingredient for increasing partial weight (breast) in old laying hens.

This study was conducted to establish a comprehensive grading guideline for poultry. Guidelines for sampling size and grading were determined on the basis of survey data obtained from chicken processing house. Results were summarized as follows : For application unit, most chicken processing house preferred lot unit to farm unit. Most processing house did not want the total survey method, but selection sampling. At the beginning of the grading system, chicken processing house wanted to apply the system to a particular lots for which the company requests. There were much suggestions for grading not only portion meat, but also whole chicken. Bigger processing house preferred no. $8\~12$ to be graded. Most of large-scale processing houses used more than 81 volts for stunning and cooling tanks by soaking. For shipping chicken, Large-scale processing houses used both individual and box packing while small ones only used box packing.

A feeding trial was carried out to investigate the effect of supplemental complex probiotics on performances, physio-chemica1 properties of meat and inetestinal microflora in broiler chicks. Four hundred eighty broiler chickens, one days old with mixed sexes were fed one of four diets containing 0, 0.1, 0.2 and 0.4% complex probiotics for 7 weeks. There were four replicates with thirty chicks per pen. Diet contained ME 3,100, 3,l00kcal/kg, and CP 22.0, 20.0% for starting and finishing period, respectively. Body Weight gain of chicks fed the complex probiotics tended to increase from the frist week and all complex probiotics higher than control from the 4th week. Chickens fed the diets containing 0.2% probiotics had higher(P<0.05) than those fed the other levels from the 4th week to 5th week. Feed conversion also improved significantly(P<0.05) in the supplemental 0.2% probiotics from the 4th week to 5th week. In physio-chemica1 properties of meat, carcass rate increased significantly(P<0.05) in the supplemental 0.4% probiotics compared to that of control at 7 weeks overall means and abdominal fat pad rate increased significantly(P< 0.05) in the supplemental 0.2% probiotics compared to that of control. Cooking loss decreased significantly(P<0.05) in the supplemental all probiotics. But shear force increased significantly(P<0.05) in the supplemental 0.4% probiotics. The number of ileum and cecum Lactobacillus spp. tended to increase in the supplemental complex probiotics at 7 week of age, but was not significantly different. As the result, supplemental complex probiotics increased performance and physio-chemica1 properties of meat and the number of intestinal Lactobacillus of broiler chicks.

This study was carried out to determine the effect of dietary supplementation of quercetin and methoxylated quercetin extracted from onions on chicken thigh meat quality during cold storage. For 35 days, 1-day-old 320 broiler chicks (Ross) were divided into 8 groups and supplemented the diet; basal diet only (CONTROL), CONTROL with antibiotics (AB), vitamin E 20 IU (VE20), vitamin E 200 IU (VE200), quercetin 20 ppm (QC20), quercetin 200 ppm (QC200), methoxylated quercetin 20 ppm (MQ20), and methoxylated quercetin 200 ppm (MQ200). After slaughtering the broilers, thighs were separated and analyzed the quality change of the meat during storage at $4^{\circ}C$ for 7 days. The meat quality factors such as pH, color, water holding capacity, and sensory characteristics of thigh meat were determined on the experiment day 0, 3, and 7. After slaughtering, the pH of AB, VE 20, QC 20, and MQ 200 showed no significant difference compare to that of CONTROL. However, VE 200 and QC 20 showed higher pH value than CONTROL on storage day 3. $L^*$ value of chicken thigh of MQ 20 was lower than CONTROL on storage day 0, however, no significant difference was found between CONTROL and treatments on storage day 3. Redness ($a^*$) of chicken thigh in CONTROL was increased during storage. QC 20, QC 200, and MQ 200 significantly reduced the $b^*$ value of chicken thigh (p<0.05). Water holding capacity of VE 20 and MQ 200 was significantly higher than the CONTROL on the day 0. Also, QC 200 showed higher WHC compare to the CONTROL. In sensory evaluation, overall acceptability of chicken thigh in quercetin and methoxylated quercetin group showed no significant differences compare to that of CONTROL by storage day 3. These results suggested that the quercetin and methoxylated quercetin could be used as additives to enhance broiler thigh meat quality such as pH and WHC without adverse effect on color and sensory characteristics.

This study was carried out to determine the effect of dietary supplementation of resveratrol and methoxylated resveratrol extracted from branch of Morus alba L. on the quality of chicken thigh meat during cold storage. For 35 days, 1-day-old 320 broiler chicks (Ross) were divided into 8 groups and supplemented the diet; basal diet only (BD), BD with antibiotics (AB), vitamin E 20 IU (VE 20), vitamin E 200 IU (VE 200), resveratrol 20 ppm (RV 20), resveratrol 200 ppm (RV 200), methoxylated resveratrol 20 ppm (MR 20), and methoxylated resveratrol 200 ppm (MR 200). After slaughtering the broilers, thighs were collected and analyzed the quality change of the meat during storage at $4^{\circ}C$ for 5 days. The meat quality factors such as pH, color, water holding capacity, and sensory characteristics of thigh meat were determined on the experiment day 1, 3, and 5. AB, VE, and MR increased pH value of chicken thigh compare to BD (p<0.05). Lightness ($L^*$) showed no significant difference during storage day 1 and 5. VE 200 and MR 20 stabilized the redness ($a^*$) of chicken thigh as the value of day 1. Water holding capacity of chicken thigh from VE 20, RV 200, MR 20, and MR 200 on storage day 3 was higher than that of BD (p<0.05). In sensory evaluation, the panelist discriminated the tenderness and gave the higher score on the chicken from AB, VE20, RV 20, and MR 20 compare to BD (p<0.05). These results suggest that the dietary resveratrol and methoxylated resveratrol could be used as chicken meat quality enhancer in broiler industry.

This study was performed to evaluate the effect of lemon and cranberry juice on meat quality of chicken thighs during cold storage. Experimental groups were chicken thigh meat dipped into distilled water (CON), 1% lemon juice (LJ), 1% cranberry juice (CJ), and a mixture of 0.5% lemon juice and 0.5% cranberry juice (LCJ). The meat quality traits were determined at day 0, 3, 6, and 9 during cold storage at $4^{\circ}C$. The pH value of all treatments was lower than that of the control (P<0.05). Total microorganisms of CJ and LCJ at day 9 was 6.94 and 6.76 log CFU/g, respectively, whereas that of the control was 7.51 log CFU/g. The $a^*$ value of CJ and LCJ was higher than that of CON and LJ during storage (P<0.05), whereas the $b^*$ value of LJ, CL, and LCJ was lower than that of CON at day 6 and 9 (P<0.05). Overall acceptability of all treatments was significantly higher than that of CON after day 3. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances and volatile basic nitrogen values were lower than those of the CON after day 3 (P<0.05). Principle component analysis (PCA) of the aroma pattern of all treatments was closer together, whereas PCA of the CON was scattered with the increase in storage days. This result suggests that dipping the chicken thigh meat into the lemon and cranberry juice could be beneficial to enhance chicken thigh meat quality by retardation of total microbes, lipid oxidation, and protein decomposition.
