The experiments were carried out to elucidate the varietal variation of retrogradation in aged cooked rice and its association with some physicochemical properties of milled rice. The fifteen rice materials were selected from forty-three low-amylose japonica and Tongil-type rice cultivars based on palatability and retrogradation of cooked rice stratified by preliminary sensory evaluation of warm and cooled cooked rice. One japonica glutinous rice variety was included for comparison of retrogradation of cooked rice. The $\alpha$-amylase-iodine method was adopted for checking the varietal difference in retrogradation of cooked rice. The desirable checking time for evaluating the varietal difference in deterioration of aged cooked rice was four hours after storing in room temperature and two hours after preserving in refrigerator based on the largest coefficients of variations in degree of retrogradation of cooked rice. The rice cultivars revealing the relatively slow retrogradation in aged cooked rice were Ilpumbyeo, Chucheongbyeo, Sasanishiki, Jinbubyeo and Koshihikari. A Tongil-type rice, Taebaegbyeo, and a japonica cultivar, Seomjinbyeo, showed the relatively fast deterioration of cooked rice. The retrogadation index represented by the percentage of retrogradation difference between warm and cooled cooked rice to original estimates of warm cooked rice was significantly affected by the degree of retrogradation of cooled cooked rice. Generally, the better rice cultivars in eating quality of cooked rice showed less retrogradation and much sponginess in cooled cooked rice. Also, the rice varieties exhibiting less retrogradation in cooled cooked rice revealed higher hot viscosity and lower cool viscosity of rice flour in amylogram. The sponginess of cooled cooked rice was closely associated with magnesium content and volume expansion of cooked rice. The hardness-changed ratio of cooked rice by cooling was negatively correlated with solids amount extracted during boiling and volume expansion of cooked rice. The major physicochemical properties of rice grain closely related to the palatability of cooked rice may be directly or indirectly associated with the retrogradation characteristics of cooked nce. The varietal difference in retrogradation of cooked rice can be effectively classified by scatter diagram on the plane of upper two principal components based on some retrogradation properties of cooked rice. The deteriorated structural change in cooled cooked rice by observing through the scanning electron microscope was more conspicuous in the fastly retrograded cooked rice than in the slower one.

The optimal conditions for the production of branched dextrin from com starch (CSBD) using branching enzyme (BE) were established by investigating the degree of retrogradation of the gelatinized starch. The physicochemical properties of CSBD prepared using the established process were evaluated. It was found that physicochemical properties of com starch were greatly modified by BE treatment. CSBD had a higher dextrose-equivalent value and water solubility than the corresponding control. On the other hand, the viscosities in gelatinized solution and amylose contents of CSBD were lower than those of the control. A high-performance size-exclusion chromatography/multiangle laser light scattering/retractive index (HPSEC/MALLS/RI) system showed that the average molecular weight of CSBD was lower than that of the control. The pasting viscosities of CSBD were stable during the entire temperature cycle. In general, the BE treatment resulted in the retrogradation during storage being lower for CSBD than for the control.

The influence of addition of arrow(Pueraria hirsuta Matsum) root flour and its fractions by ultrafiltration on the flow properties of the rice flour-water systems were investigated. The flow properties of rice flour pastes during cold storage$(5^{\circ}C)$ were measured and the components from arrow root flour responsible for changes of flow properties were screened. Addition of arrow root flour significantly changed the flow properties of rice flour pastes. Permeate fractions by ultrafiltration, representing low molecular weight component fraction, significantly affected the flow property of rice flour paste stored at $5^{\circ}C$. Addition of permeate fraction to rice flour pastes rapidly decreased the consistency index, yield stress and pseudoplasticity, and showed a stability of flow property during storage suggesting the retardation of rice starch retrogradation. Permeate fractions of ultrafiltration were identified as puerarin, daidzein and daidzin known to representive isoflavonoid from arrow root.

The effect of water extracts of Chungkukjang(WEC: 10%, w/v), which was prepared using Bacillus subtilis isolated from Korean traditional Chungkukjang, on the pH, acidity and volume of the dough, and loaf volume index(LVI), color, texture, retrogradation degree, microscopic observation and sensory quality of the bread were investigated. Experimental plots were divided to 3 groups(Control; without WEC, I; added 2.5% WEC against total amount of water, II; added 5.0% WEC against total amount of water). There were no significant difference in pH and acidity among each experimental groups. Dough volume were higher but LVI were lower in the 1- and II-bread than those of control group. L* values of the top crust and internal tissue in the I- and II-bread were lower than those of control group. The higher addition amounts had the lower L* values. Hardness, strength, gumminess and brittleness were higher, but cohesiveness and springiness were lower in the WEC-breads than those of control. In the results of microscopic observation, there were scarce of the bigger starch granules and a sparse structure, while there were smaller starch granules in the WEC-bread. The scores of crispy taste of the WEC-bread were lower than those of the control group, but there were no significant difference in tenderness, odor, savory taste and overall acceptability between the control and the I-bread. The retrogradation rate of the bread stored for 3 days at 25℃ was 45.09% in control, 17.92% in I-bread, and 12.45% in II-bread, respectively.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of different amounts of pumpkin powder on the quality characteristics of hobakpyeon using physicochemical and sensory properties, as well as on its retrogradation rate during storage. As the amount of pumpkin powder increased, the following effects on the quality characteristics were observed: moisture and amylose contents decreased while protein content increased (p<0.05), and in vitro protein digestibility (IVPD) decreased (p<0.05). Levels of slowly digestible starch and resistant starch fractions increased, while the content of rapidly digestible starch decreased. The starch digestion index and rapidly available glucose content also decreased. Among the physical properties, the L-value decreased while the b-value increased (p<0.05). Texture profile analysis revealed that all textural properties except adhesiveness decreased, and presented significant differences in hardness and chewiness (p<0.05). Sensory properties such as color, flavor, and sweetness increased while others such as wetness and chewiness decreased (p<0.05). Effects on the physicochemical properties during refrigerated storage were also compared between the control and 9% hobakpyeon (9%HP). According to the results, moisture content gradually decreased in the 9%HP compared to the control. Amylose content significantly increased in 9%HP whereas no significant changes were observed in the control. In both types of hobakpyeon, IVSD decreased significantly, showing higher values in 9%HP, whereas mechanical hardness increased, showing lower values in 9%HP. The L-value decreased significantly in the 9%HP whereas no significant changes were observed in the control. In conclusion, the above results suggest that hobakpyeon with low IVSD may be obtained by the addition of 9% pumpkin powder, and also showed that pumpkin powder delayed the rate of retrogradation in 9%HP during storage.

This study investigated both the chemical and antioxidative characteristics of wheat flour added with 10, 20 and 30% immature chalssalbori flour; further, the quality characteristics of bread dough during yeast fermentation were assessed. As the addition rate of chalssalbori flour into wheat flour increased, the DPPH radical scavenging capacity, water absorption index, water solubility index and viscosity were all increased. Moreover, the bread dough with an increased addition rate of chalssalbori flour demonstrated an increased pH, reduced fermentative expansion power and a darker yellowish color. The bread dough added with chalssalbori flour after mixing showed higher hardness, gumminess and adhesiveness, but lower cohesiveness and springiness compared to the control; however, these texture characteristics were changed during fermentation. In the present study, the mixed flour with 10% immature chalssalbori flour conveyed similar pasting characteristics to those of wheat flour; moreover, its bread dough showed higher springiness and fermentative expansion power. Furthermore, a delay effect of starch retrogradation can be expected compared to the control.

To evaluate the processing adaptability of taro flours, the physicochemical properties of taro flour with different drying, roasting and steaming conditions were investigated. The moisture content and total dietary fiber were decreased as temperature increased with hot-air drying. Freeze-dried taro flours showed the highest vitamin C contents. Taro flours made by freeze-drying and hot-air drying showed significantly higher total dietary fiber content than those with roasting and steaming process. Steamed taro flours had the highest water absorption index, while hot-air dried and freeze dried taro flours had the highest water solubility index. No differences were displayed in the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) thermal characteristics among hot-air dried and freeze dried taro flours. Roasted taro displayed decreased onset temperature and peak temperature as roasting temperature increased. Using a rapid visco-analyzer, the peak viscosity, through viscosity, and final viscosity of dried and steamed taro flours were higher than roasted taro flours, whereas the set back value, which is a prediction of retrogradation, decreased with steaming processing. From those results, it could be concluded that hotair dried taro flours, which have high gelatinization viscosity, are beneficial in imparting viscosity to dough products and hot-air drying after steaming taro flours, which retard retrogradation, is good for porridge and flake base products.

In this study, we assessed the effects of heat treatment on the in vitro hydrolysis indices of commercial Saengshik. Thermal treatment on grain flour and commercial Saengshik increased soluble dietary finer(SDF) and insoluble fiber(IDF), while total dietary fiber(TDF) content remained nearly constant regardless of thermal treatment. Among the samples, COS(Commercial Ohaeng Saengshik) showed the highest TDF and IDF content in raw and heated samples. Additionally, the resistant starch(RS) contents in unheated samples were shown to be high. After heating, the RS levels of all the samples were reduced significantly, by over 12%. The degree of gelatinization in the unheated samples was lower than that of the heated samples, whereas the degree of retrogradation in the unheated samples was higher than that of the heated samples. The hydrolysis indices(HI) of the unheated samples were relatively low, whereas the heated group evidenced high levels. The HI must be affected by content of RS and IDF in samples.

Properties of dry milled rice flours made of paddy with different moisture content (12.6, 18.4 and 24.4%) were compared with those of wet milled rice flour. Among dry milled rice flour, the higher moisture content of paddy the finer particle size and the more distinct shape of starch were observed. As the moisture content of paddy increased, L (lightness) value and water absorption index of rice flour were increased, while setback in amylogram and water soluble index were decreased. Lower gel consistency and gel strength were found in dry milled rice flours than in wet milled rice flour, while no significant difference was found among dry milled rice flours. Enthalpy for melting crystalline of retrograded gels was higher in dry milled rice flours made of paddy with 24.4% moisture content than in other dry milled rice flours. Wet milled rice flour had lower retrogradation enthalphy than dry milled rice flours.

Relationship among the properties of rice, such as amylose contents of endosperm starch, sugar content and amylogram characteristics, and processing properties for rice bread was studied. The amylose content of the rice cultivars decreased in order of Nampungbyeo, Whachungbyeo>Punchilmi(fl)>Nampung CB243> Whachung du-I, Nampung EM90>Whachung-chalbyeo>shr. Protein contents of rice tested in this study were almost same level, however, shr, the high sugar rice, showed the highest protein content scored as 8.2%. The study showed that the amylose contents of rice cultivars were negatively correlated with their protein contents. The starting temperatures for gelatinization of the flour of Punchilmi(fl) and Shurunken(shr) were low, however, in case of Whachungbyeo and Nampungbyeo plus their mutants derived from the both, the stickiness and the hardness of the flours were shown to be positively correlated with the amylose contents. In addition, loaf volume tested using sensory evaluation and overall quality showed the same tendency. Among the rice cultivars tested in this study, breads made from white rice had good qualities in bread making process than those made from brown rice. The bread made from Nampungbyeo was demonstrated to have highest score e in overall quality, as well as the lowest retrogradation index during storage at $4^{\circ}C$
