In the present study, optimization on ${\beta}$-glucanase-assisted extraction was made in order to isolate waxy barley starch from domestic cultivar using the D-optimal design suitable for response surface methodology (RSM). The results demonstrated that the amount of enzyme was found to be a major influencing factor on the extraction yield, which was substantially increased by increasing the amount of enzyme. It was also influenced by the reaction time and amount of water addition; however, the two factors were less influential than the amount of enzyme. The optimized condition by RSM for the reaction time was found to be 2.63 hours and amount of enzyme 1.7%, and amount of water addition 4.38 times the weight of raw material. With the enzyme treatment, the starch content in residues (R), particularly in R1 and R5, was reduced considerably, resulting in an increase in the extraction yield and therefore primarily and effectively releasing B-type starch small granule confirmed by scanning electronic microscopy. In addition, the study determined the physicochemical properties of isolated waxy starch (i.e., purity, water adsorption capacity, thermal properties, rheology and starch morphology) and compared them with those from the enzyme-not treated sample. It was found that they were almost similar to each other, except for the purity of starch, which was lower in the enzyme-treated sample than in the enzyme-not treated one.

Response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to optimize extraction conditions in order to find the maximal functional properties of fluid Cheonggukjang. Based on central composite design, a study plan was established with variations of microwave power, ethanol concentration, and extraction time. Regression analysis was applied to obtain a mathematical model. The maximum inhibitory of tyrosinase activity was found as 26.75% at the conditions of 30.56W microwave power, 2.40 g/mL of ratio of solvent to sample content and 10.00 min extraction time, respectively. The maximum superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activity was 53.23% under the extraction conditions of 108.42 W, 4.38 g/mL and 7.84 min. Based on superimposition of three dimensional RSM with respect to extraction yield, inhibitory of tyrosinase activity and SOD-like activity obtained under the various extraction conditions, the optimum ranges of extraction conditions were found to be microwave power of $55{\sim}75$ W, ratio of solvent to sample content of $2{\sim}5$ g/mL and extraction time of $3.5{\sim}15$ min, respectively.

Cold air drying was conducted on steamed chestnut-sweet potato to improve its quality, convenience, and preference as snack. Steamed sweet potato was dried from 10 to $25^{\circ}C$ for 48 hours, and moisture contents, colors, texture, and taste were evaluated. The lowest moisture content was 4.53% at $25^{\circ}C$. Lightness decreased while other color values (a, b, and ${\Delta}$E) increased with increasing drying temperature and drying time. Reducing sugar and soluble solid contents ranged from 93.22~190.35 mg/g and 17~60 $^{\circ}Brix$, respectively. The highest hardness of chestnut-sweet potato was 25.13 kgf/$cm^2$, and springiness and cohesiveness were 88.60, and 94.87%, respectively, when dried at $25^{\circ}C$ for 48 hours. Sensory evaluation score was highest at $20^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours. The optimum drying conditions were determined to be $19^{\circ}C$ and 39.5 hours by RSM(response surface methodology).

Clarified orange juice was prepared using different clarification methods including centrifugation, enzyme treatment, ultrafiltration (UF), and combined treatment(CT). Effect of clarification methods as well as other quality parameters were investigated. Clarification was improved with increase in centrifugation speed and by lowering operating temperature. The optimum condition for centrifugation process was $5^{\circ}C$ and 10,000 rpm. UF and CT processes were very effective to produce clarified orange juice. The optimum condition of UF process was $45^{\circ}C$ and 150 kPa considering flux and turbidity CT did not significantly improve the clarification efficiency since most of the clarification was already achieved during UF process. $L^*$-values increased while $a^*$-values decreased significantly after clarification regardless of methods (p<0.05) Considering color, and recovering rate of vitamin C and soluble solids, UF process was superior than the other methods in producing clarified orange juice.

This study was to investigated optimum preparation conditions for Gugija Heukimja jook by response surface methodology (RSM). The important materials used for the Gugija Heukimja product were Lycium chinese, Seasamum indicum L., Ziziphus jujuba Mill. and rice. Moisture content, crude protein, crude fat, crude ash and crude fiber content were 15.62, 16.60, 13.62, 4.93 and 11.17% for Lycium chinese, 3.62, 20.94, 43.56, 5.67 and 10.72% for Seasamum indicum L., 24.12, 5.38, 0.73, 2.30 and 1.25% for Ziziphus jujuba Mill., and 12.36, 6.98, 0.46, 0.43 and 0.41% for rice, respectively. Optimal extraction conditions of brix, color, pH and total acidity in the materials for Gugija Heukimja jook were temperature $80^{\circ}C$, water volume 850 mL and extraction time of 63 min. The spreadability of jook with Lycium chinese and Ziziphus jujuba Mill. extracts was the highest when black sesame was 12 g pH was the lowest when black sesame was 9 g. PH showed a significant difference when the added black sesame ratio changed. The 'value L' of chromaticity was lower with an increase of the black sesame ratio, 'value a' was higher with an increase of the black sesame ratio, 'value b' was lower with an increase of the black sesame ratio. Brix was lower when black sesame in jook was added. Total acidity was highest (7.27%) when black sesame was 12 g. The degree of gelatinization tended to be lower with additional black sesame. Higher scores of sensory evaluation were found for the product containing 9 g black sesame with Lycii furctus and Ziziphus jujuba Mill. extracts ompared to the other samples with 3 and 6g. No significant difference in taste occurred for Gugija Heukimja jook prepared with over 9 g black sesame, while a great difference showed in color, pH and total acid. Therefore, the Gugija Heukimja jook prepared under the optimal conditions of 9 g black sesame with Lycium chinese and Ziziphus jujuba Mill. extracts exhibited higher qualities. Gugija Heukimja jook can use the easier for Yacksun jook. It is expected to become functional in the product's development.
