The present study examined the physical, chemical, microbial, and sensory characteristics of Queso Blanco cheese supplemented with powdered microcapsules containing tomato extracts (0.5-2.0%) during storage at $7^{\circ}C$ for 60 d. The lactic acid bacterial count and lycopene concentrations in Queso Blanco cheese supplemented with powdered microcapsules were significantly higher than those of the control. In a texture analysis, the gumminess, chewiness, and hardness values for Queso Blanco cheese were significantly higher with increasing concentrations of the powdered microcapsules containing tomato extracts. Total short-chain fatty acids in Queso Blanco cheese supplemented with powdered microcapsules containing tomato extracts were not significantly altered compared to the control. Sensory evaluation scores for the yellowness, tomato taste, and firmness of Queso Blanco cheese were significantly higher after supplementation with powdered microcapsules containing tomato extracts.

This study was done for the determination of ginsenosides contents of Korean ginseng and ginseng products as well as the development of analytical method for ginsenosides. It is known that perfect segregation of ginsenoside Rg and Re is not easy, but in this study almost perfect segregation can be possible by the control of concentration between acetonitrile and water. Among Korean ginseng, ginseng powdered tea and red ginseng powdered tea, the highest ginsenosides content of sum of each 7 kind o ginsenoside was found in red ginseng powdered tae as 23,211${\mu}g$ per 1g/dw The ginsenoside content of ginseng powdered tea was lower than red ginseng powdered tea as 15,217${\mu}g$ per 1g/dw Total ginsenoside content in the root of ginseng was 29,268${\mu}g$ per 1/dw Each amount of ginsenoside contained in ginseng root was in the order of Rb1, Rg1, and Rc. It was shown that there was difference in constitutional element of ginsenosides in ginseng powdered tea and ginseng root.

The enzyme activity and the micronutrient content of powdered raw meal (PRM) and powdered processed meal (PPM) were compared. PRM was made of freeze-dried cereals, fruits, and vegetables. PPM was made of the same materials as PRM, but with heat processing such as steaming, roasting and hot air drying. The activity of $\alpha$-amylase of PRM was higher than that of PPM. However there were no differences of the concentration of proximate components between PRM and PPM. The concentrations of vitamin A, C, folic acid, biotin, calcium, potassium, sodium and iron in PRM were higher than in PPM, but there were no differences in vitamins E, B$_1$, B$_2$, phosphorus and zinc. This research demonstrated that PRM retains greater nutritional value because there is higher enzyme activity and less loss of micronutrients during processing in PRM than in PPM.

Cronobacter is a major foodborne pathogen in powdered infant formula and can lead to serious developmental after-effect and death to infants. The contamination of Cronobacter may be a high risk for the powdered foods. To isolate and identify Cronobacter from the powdered foods such as powdered infant formula and Saengsik in Korea, a conventional culture method, rapid identification system, PCR, and 16S rDNA sequencing were performed. As the results of isolation, seven Cronobacter spp. were isolated from seven out of 102 powdered infant formulas and 41 Cronobacter were isolated from 41 out of 86 Saengsiks. Forty-eight Cronobacter isolates were identified to be C. sakazakii and C. dublenisis by 16S rDNA sequence analysis. Most of the isolates were C. sakazakii and 13% of the isolates were C. dublinesis. One fourth of the C. sakazakii isolates showed different biochemical characteristics of negative nitrate reduction and nonmotility activities compared with the other strains reported previously.

Presence of Enterobacter sakazakii, occasional pathogen of powdered infant formula causing rare, but life-threatening diseases such as neonatal meningitis, bacteremia, necrotizing enterocolitis, and necrotizing meningoencephalitis after ingestion was examined in 45 powdered infant formula products manufactured in Korea using chromogenic Druggan-Forsythe-Iversen (DFI) medium, and isolates were identified with API 20E. Ent. sakazakii was isolated from three products. Ent. sakazakii isolates were genotyped by RAPD-PCR using two random primers, and their banding patterns were compared.

In order to get a quantitative information of capsaicin intakes derived from Korean daily spicy food, capsaicin contents in powdered red hot peppers and powdered soup of Korean instant noodles were measured by high performance liquid chromatography. Capsaicin contents were 0.03~0.33mg/g in the powdered hot pepper, 3.67~5.50mg/g in the powdered soup with most spicy taste, 2.15~3.14 mg/g in the soup with medium level of spicy, and below 1.5mg/g in the soup with mild taste of Korean instant noodles. From the results, it was estimated that the amounts of daily intake of capsaicin from hot pepper were about 0.38~4.95mg/day, and capsaicin intakes from one pack of Korean instant noodles were about 10~60mg.

Enterobacter sakazakii may be related to outbreaks of meningitis, septicemia, and necrotizing enterocolitis, mainly in neonates. To reduce the risk of E. sakazakii in baby foods, thermal characteristics for Korean E. sakazakii isolates were determined at 52, 56, and $60^{\circ}C$ in saline solution, rehydrated powdered infant formula, and dried baby food. In saline solution, their D-values were 12-16, 3-5, and 0.9-1 min for each temperature. D-values increased to 16-20, 4-5, and 2-4 min in rehydrated infant formula and 14-17, 5-6, and 2-3 min in dried baby food. The overall calculated z-value was 6-8 for saline, 8-10 for powdered infant formula, and 9-11 for dried baby food. Thermal inactivation of E. sakazakii during rehydration of powdered infant formula was investigated by viable counts. Inactivation of cultured E. sakazakii in infant formula milk did not occur for 20 min at room temperature after rehydration with the water at $50^{\circ}C$ and their counts were reduced by about 1-2 log CFU/g at $60^{\circ}C$ and 4-6 log CFU/ml with the water at 65 and $70^{\circ}C$. However, the thermo stability of adapted E. sakazakii to the powdered infant formula increased more than two times. Considering that the levels of E. sakzakii observed in powdered infant formula have generally been 1 CFU/100 g of dry formula or less, contamination with E. sakazakii can be reduced or eliminated by rehydrating water with at least $10^{\circ}C$ higher temperature than the manufacturer-recommended $50^{\circ}C$.

Cronobacter species have been associated with disease outbreaks and sporadic infections, particularly in premature and immunocompromised infants. Cronobacter species can cause foodborne infections such as neonatal meningitis, septicaemia and necrotising enterocolitis. Accordingly, there is an urgent need to control and monitor the Cronobacter species in food, especially in powdered infant formula (PIF) and other baby foods. Therefore, in this review, the isolation and prevalence of Cronobacter species in infant food including PIF and the recent advance of detection methods are discussed for the better understanding on the current research status of Cronobacter species.

In this study, the microwave free-space transmission technique was used to measure the dielectric property of powdered food at microwave frequencies. The sample holder was designed and fabricated to transmit the microwave signals ranging from 1 to 15GHz. From the microwave propagation theory the equation expressing the dielectric property of powdered food was derived and validated by standard dielectrics. The dielectric property of powdered food such as wheat flour, coffee powder and milk powder was measured and analyzed. In the uniform range of bulk density of material, the real parts of permittivity of the food samples increased with the increase of moisture content, bulk density and temperature of the samples. The propagation properties such as attenuation and phase shift increased linearly as the moisture density of the food samples increased. As a measuring frequency of the moisture content, the X-band was recommended.
