The degree of maturity of rice greatly affects the quality of the rice, including factors such as the integrity of grains, color, and the nutritive components. Green Rice$^{(R)}$ is rice (Oryza sativa L.) that has been harvested earlier than brown rice and appears green in color. To determine suitable harvesting time of the Jinbu variety of Green Rice$^{(R)}$ in Gyeonggido, rice samples harvested on 23, 26 and 42 days after heading (DAH) were compared on their yield, color intensity, and proximate compositions. The maximum paddy yield of Green Rice$^{(R)}$ was 61.4% at 23 DAH, which decreased to 45.4%, 5.5% at 26 and 42 DAH, respectively. Greenness was darker at 23 DAH ($-0.27{\pm}0.03$), and significantly weaker (p<0.05) at 26 DAH ($0.07{\pm}0.01$) and at 42 DAH ($5.25{\pm}0.08$). All proximate compositions, except carbohydrate, including moisture, crude fat, protein, ash and total minerals were higher in the earlier-harvested Green rice$^{(R)}$ than in brown rice, without variations among the 23 and 26 DAH Green rice$^{(R)}$. Overall, the optimum harvest time of Jinbu Green Rice$^{(R)}$ at Gyeonggido would be 23 DAH. We suggest that timely harvesting could be a potent determinant of the quality of Green Rice$^{(R)}$.

This research was studied to find out the best ingredients for making demi-glace sauce, using the thickening agent with glutinous rice, non-glutinous rice, brown rice, and black rice, and to look into the quality characteristics. The moisture of demi-glace sauce depending on the thickening type was that the roux added cereals was higher than the control. In addition, it was increased depending on the extension of the storage time. The control was the highest on pH and acidity. On variation depending on the storage time, all of the experimental groups showed decrease on pH. Demi-glace sauce with brown rice and black rice roux showed increase of acidity. The DPPH radical was not tended to be decreased in the experimental group, but it was rapidly decreased in the control, depending on the extension of the storage time. Demi-glace sauce with non-glutinous rice was the highest on Hunter's color L value and generally increased according to the storage time. Also demi-glace sauce with glutinous rice was the highest on 'a' value and 'b' value but was decreased according to the storage time. The control was highest on viscosity, and demi-glace sauce with non-glutious and black rice roux were low on the variation of viscosity depending on the storage time. Increment of total bacteria in demi-glace sauce with black and brown rice roux was relatively lower than the control on storage stability test, and demi-glace sauce with brown rice roux got the highest point after swallow, taste and overall of sensory evaluation.

Lipid composition was compared among rice varities such Dongjin, Jinmi and Tamjin as high, medium and low sensory quality, respectively Total and purified lipid contents of Jinmi were 1.7~2.2 times higher than those of Dongjin and Tamjin, and the lipid contents had not showed a tendency in the rice varieties with different sensory quality Dongjin of high sensory quality had high contents as 9.2~13.5% of neutral lipid and 3.1~4.7% of phospholipid, and low content as 12.3~18.2% of glycolipid compared with Jinmi and Tamjin of medium and low sensory quality. The rice varieties had not showed a tendency as a difference of sensory quality in compositions of neutral and phospholipid. As the sensory quality increased in the rice varieties, monogalactosyl diglycerides, steryl glycosides had high contents as 0.4~19.24% and 14.4~17.1%, and esterified steryl glycosides, celebrosides and digalactosyl diglycerides had low contents 15.3~28.1%, 1.2~5.7% and 2.8~3.8%, respectively, in glycolipid. Fatty acid composition also had no tendency as a difference of sensory quality of the rice varities in compositions of neutral and phospholipid. Palmitic acid, however, had a high content as 0.4~22.6% and linoleic acid had a low content as 5.0~12.0% in fatty acid composition of glycolipid.

This study was to investigate the quality characteristics of noodles prepared with germinated brown rice and rice bran, and to determine the changes in GABA content and antioxidant activity of the noodles. These noodles were evaluated for cooking properties (cooking loss, swelling index, water holding capacity), total polyphenols, antioxidant activities (radical scavenging of ABTS and DPPH), and GABA contents. The addition of germinated rice bran in the range of 5, 10, and 15% showed a significant influence on cooking loss, although no effect on swelling index was observed. The raw and cooked noodles containing germinated brown rice and rice bran contained more GABA contents (2751.6~4176.7 and 5522.0~9617.8 nmol/20 g of fresh noodle, respectively) than those of non-germinated brown rice and rice bran. Noodles made with germinated brown rice and rice bran had similar total polyphenolics contents and antioxidant activities compared to noodles made with non-germinated brown rice and rice bran. Overall, the germinated brown rice could be used as a good ingredient to increase the nutritional value and antioxidant properties of wheat flour noodle without affecting the cooking properties.

In Korea, rice cultivars have been changing to 'quality' rice rather than high yielding cultivars. However, more than 10% of paddy field has been changed to greenhouse in winter season for cropping of water-melon, oriental-melon, straw berry and et cetra. This experiment has been made to identify the usefulness of critical N and Si fertilization(SF) level to obtain high grain quality rice with reduced insect pest damage by N and SF combination. Before the experiment, watermelon-rice cropping system was maintained for three seasons by farmer from 1998 to 2001. The experiment of N and Si (silicate) fertilization levels was evaluated with Hwayoung-byeo (Oryza sativa L., medium-maturing variety) in 2002 and 2003 in Uiryeong, Korea. Nitrogen fertilization (NF) levels were three and five in 2002 and 2003, respectively, and three SF levels were compared for getting the valuable N/SF level in both years. TOYO-value was positively affected by Si application in N100% plot but it was negatively related with NF level. Normal grain percentage was positively related with TOYO-value and it was highest in 0N plot and Si plots in N100%. Other appearance qualities like powdered, damaged, and cracked grain, were decreased with increasing N fertilization level. SF improved appearance quality in N100% plots but no effects in other treatments. Leaf sheath related diseases were significantly decreased by SF but it was negatively related with NF. In conclusion, SF could be improve grain quality at the same yield levels of conventional fertilization and it also could be reduce the diseases damages of rice plant in all N treatments. NF treatment reduced grain quality and improved grain yield at N50% level, however NF above N50% could not get any kind of benefits. So, compared with conventional fertilizer, reduced NF level is recommended for high grain quality with reduced insect pest damage.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics of Kugija-Injeulmi by varying the ingredient ratio of Lycii fructus powder (4, 6 and 8%). According to sensory evaluation of Kugija-Injeulmi, as the ratio of Lycii fructus powder was increased, the bitterness, hardness and chewiness all increased. It was found that Kugija-Injeulmi made of glutinous rice was moistened and softened with the addition of more Lycii fructus powder, but it was rougher than Kugija-Injeulmi made of glutinous rice flour. As a result of textural analysis of Kugija-Injeulmi, the hardness, adhesiveness, gumminess and chewiness increased as the amount of Lycii fructus powder increased, whereas the cohesiveness decreased. Kugija-Injeulmi made of glutinous rice was moister than Kugija-Injeulmi made of glutinous rice flour. The overall-acceptability was negatively correlated with coarseness. The overall-acceptability of Kugija-Injeulmi made of glutinous rice was much higher than that made of glutinous rice flour. From the above results, the most advisable mixture ratio of Kugija-Injeulmi is as follows Kugija-Injeulmi add 282g (94%) glutinous rice flour, Lycii fructus powder 18g (6%) and salt 3g. The moisture content was 42.22%.

In order to improve the quality of nuruk a Korean traditional fermenting agent for brewing nuruk was modified by a new method inoculating Rhizopus japonicus T2 Aspergillus oryzae L2 and hansenula sp. BC26 which had been isolated from traditional Nuruk. And the characteristics of modified Nuruk were investimgated as compared with current fermenting agents such as commercial Nuruk and rice koji of As-pergillus kawachii. The odor of modified Nuruk was savory but those of commercial Nuruk and rice koji were fetid andinodorous repectively. The extracted waters of modified Nuruk commercial Nuruk and rice koji were yellow pale yellow and colorless and showed 6.15, 6.01 and 3.30 of pH respectively. Mod-ified Nuruk had 7.6${\times}$106CFU/g of yeast but commercial uruk and rice koji had no yeast. Commercial Nuruk had 1.0${\times}$102CFU/g of lactic acid bacteria but modified Nuruk and rice koji had no lactic acid bacteria. The amylolytic and proteolytic activities of modified Nuruk were much higher than those of commercial Nuruk or rice koji. Seed mash of modified Nuruk had ester aroma but that of commercial Nuruk rather offensive odor and that of rice koji neither ester aroma or offensive odor. It seemed that if the modified Nuruk is used in seed mashing the supplement of acidulant is need to lower pH. The quality of modified Nuruk was thought to be much better than that of commercial Nuruk or rice koji.

Twelve varieties of Korean rice and ten varieties of Japanese rice were selected. After being milled. they were analyzed about various physicochemical properties such as moisture, protein and amylose, a -amylase activity, gelatinization properties. And after being cooked with proper amount of water texture and other physical properties were measured by Texturometer, Tensipresser and Rheolograph-micro. Finally the sensory evaluation test was carried out. The results were as follows. 1. In case of protein contents, amylose contents and $\alpha$-amylase activity, Korean rice had a slightly higher value than Japanese As a consequence. Korean rice showed a little stronger hardness and a little weaker stickiness compared with Japanese rice. 2. Amylose contents showed very high correlation with other physicochemical properties and peak viscosity and gelatinization temperature of RVA, the ratio of stickiness to hardness( -Hl/Hl ) of Texturometer and the tan $\delta$(the ratio of dynamic loss to dynamic viscoelasticity) of Rheolograph-micro showed high correlation with other analyzed properties. 3. The ( -/+)work balance of low compression test(25% ) of Tensipresser analysis(texture analysis on the surface of cooked rice) and tan f of Rheolograph-micro showed very high correlation with sensory evaluation results. By using this parameters as major independent variables, some trials to derive high confidence multiple regression equations were accomplished. By the equations it would be possible to make an approximate pre-estimate of eating quality for unknown japonica rice.

Rice consumption per capta, in South Korea, has been decreased dramatically, owing to the changes of living patterns. Because of not only the major energy source of Korean people but also major income source of Korean farmers, diversifying end-use-quality of rice has been demanded. To the context, 'Suweon 472', a high yielding and early mature japonica line and released as 'Namilbyeo' to framers in 2002, was treated with a chemical mutagen, Sodium Azide to find endosperm mutant types. A total of nine endosperm mutat lines, including five waxy, one dull, two floury, and one white core type, were identified from the 3,542 mutatagen treated lines. Amylose contents, iodine reaction, disintegration in alkali solution, gelatinization in urea solution and amylogram properties of those nine endosperm mutant lines were evaluated to address the possibility as new genetic materials for diversifying rice quality of Korean japonica cultivars. All embryo mutants were clearly differentiated from their wild type, 'Suweon 472', in terms of physic-chemical properties evaluated. The endosperm mutant lines would be very useful in expanding untiliztation of rice through opening new rice markets of processed foods from Korean japonica rice.
