This study examined variations in postmortem meat quality characteristics and consumer sensory evaluations of different pork quality classes in fresh and cooked meat. Pale, soft, and exudative (PSE) meat had the highest drip loss, lightness, and the lowest $pH_{24\;hr}$ whereas dark, firm, and dry (DFD) meat showed the opposite results. When the fresh meat was evaluated by consumer panelists, they could only distinguish the PSE class of meat and it scored lowest in overall acceptability. However, the panelists did not consider cooked PSE or DFD pork to be unacceptable overall, indicating that consumers cannot distinguish the quality of cooked pork.

Physiological and sensory characteristics of breads prepared with the flour substituted with leek powder were evaluated. Leek powder contained 34.6% total dietary fiber. Substitution of wheat flour with 2% and 3% of leek powder decreased loaf volume by 13 and 27%, respectively. Moisture content was slightly increased and staling rate during storage at 25oC decreased in breads with leek powder. The addition of leek powder slighty increased hardness of fresh bread, but did not affect hardness of stored breads. Breads with leek powder turned into greenish and had characteristic flavor. Nontheless, no significant differences were observed between control and that with 2% of leek powder in sensory evaluation.

In this study, Jeolpyon(imprinted with flow patterns) was prepared with different amount of added Astragalus membranaceu extracts(0%, 3%, 6%, 9% and l2%)and then the quality and sensory characteristic effects were examined. All togather the chemical composition of the samples was as follows: $53.l2{\pm}0.04%$ of moisture, $l4.43{\pm}0.05$ crude protein, $7.6l{\pm}0.11%$ crude fat, and $21.35{\pm}0.09%$ crude ash. Hardness and cohesiveness significantly increased(p <0.001), and springiness, chewiness and adhesiveness decreased, with increasing amounts of Astragalus membranaceus extract. In the chromaticity analysis, the L-value(brightness)significantly decreased with increasing Astragalus membranaceus extract content, and the b-value(yellowness) increased in direct proportion to the extract content. Finally, in the sensory evaluation, the Jeolpyon containing 9.0% extract received the highest overall preference scores.

This study investigated the sensory characteristics of adlay tea favorably consumed by Korean consumers and analyzed the drivers behind for liking or disliking adlay tea. Six adlay tea products showing the highest market share in South Korea were selected. Sensory properties of the six products were analyzed using generic descriptive analysis. Among these, four products were further selected for consumer taste acceptance test. Sensory lexicons of adlay tea were developed by trained panelists, and the sensory characteristics of each adlay tea product were measured based on the perceived intensities of these attributes elicited from the samples. In the consumer taste acceptance test, frequent tea and coffee drinkers participated. Consumers rated the acceptance of each tea product on a 9-point hedonic scale and evaluated the reasons for liking or disliking each product based on the check-all-that-apply method. Analysis of Variance, principal component analysis, frequency analysis, and correspondence analysis were utilized for statistical analysis. Twenty sensory attributes were developed in order to characterize the six adlay tea products. The results of the descriptive analysis showed that attributes such as viscosity, black soybean flavor, goso flavor, peanut flavor, seaweed flavor, green, and presence of chunks were key factors differentiating the adlay tea products. In the consumer taste test, roasted flavor, goso flavor, peanut flavor, and presence of chunks were positive drivers for liking the adlay tea products, whereas seaweed and green flavors were negative attributes that drove consumers away.

The tegumental ultrastructures oi Echinostoma hortense adults were observed by scanning electron microscopy. The worms of 4 weeks of age were harvested from albino rats experimentally infected with the metacercariae obtained from the loach. The results were as follows: 1. The worms were leaf-like and their anterior end portion, including oral sucker and head crown, ventrally curved to face posteriorly. The tegument of whole body was wrinkled transversely and covered with cobblestone-like cytoplasmic processes. 2. The oral sucker had roundly swollen (type I ) sensory papillae on the ventral half of its lip and mini-ciliated knob-like (type I ) sensory papillae, arranged in 2∼3 rows, on the dorsal outer surface. 3. Aspinous ventral sucker had many of type I papillae arranged in a circular band on its outer surface. The tegument around the genital opening was of similar feature to the ventral sucker, but sensory papillae were hardly found around the former. 4. Scale-like spines with broad base and round tip were distributed densely on the tegument anterior to the ventral sucker but they became sparse in posterior half of the ventral surface, finally to disappear at posterior extremity. A few number of type I papillae were observed on the ventral surface. The results suggest that the tegument of 5. hortense is similar to that of other echinostomes etapecially 5. revolutum. But the number and arrangement of collar spines, and/or the type and distribution of sensory papillae seem characteristic features of E. hortense differed from other echinostomes.

This study investigated the quality variation characteristics of Ssamjang containing Cheongkukjang, in order to improve the degree of preference of Cheongkukjang. The amount of Cheongkukjang was set at 1% based on sensory evaluation. Ssamjang containing Cheongkukjang was stored at $37^{\circ}C$ for 13 weeks, after which quality variation characteristics were weekly. During storage for 13 weeks, physicochemical quality characteristics, moisture content, and pH of Ssamjang containing Cheongkukjang slightly decreased, whereas salt content did not change. Amino nitrogen content slightly increased by 1 week but decreased by 3 weeks and then increased by 5 weeks. For microbiology quality characteristics, viable cell counts and total cell counts of B. cereus were unchanged. For sensory quality characteristics, shape quality was poor after 13 weeks while mold, drying phenomenon, and swelling phenomenon were not observed. Therefore, physicochemical quality and microbiology quality of Ssamjang containing Cheongkukjang were unchanged during storage for 13 weeks, and the storage limit was determined to be 12 weeks according to sensory quality evaluation.

This study was undertaken to investigate the effect of cereals on the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of Noti. Noti is one of Korean traditional pan-fried glutinous cereal cakes. Noti made from the steamed glutinous rice flour, glutinous Chinese millet flour, glutinous millet flour or glutinous Indian millet flour is saccharified with malt, and then pan-fried. Noti also has sweet taste without sugar added. In addition, Noti has elastic characteristic, high calorie and good flavor. Long storage makes it better taste. In this case, Noti was made from the steamed glutinous rice flour. By the sensory evaluation, color, flavor and moistness were unfavorable according to the storage. Consistency was not strongly increased when comparing with the common rice cake depending upon the storage. The texture tended to increase by storage period. Optimum conditions of the safe storage and overall acceptability were to add 15% malt and keep 6hr saccharification time at 60$^{\circ}C$. During the period of storage for 90 days, reducing sugar content was similar, moisture content was low and maintained, and the acid value was not increased abruptly. The hardness was not increased rapidly and fungal growth was considerably low. Cohesiveness and elasticity were increased during storage.

The quality characteristics of Yanggaeng with 0%, 2%, 4%, 6%, and 8% acaiberry (Euterpe oleracea Mart.) powder added were analyzed for physicochemical, antioxidant effects, and sensory preferences. The moisture contents of the Yanggaeng added with acaiberry powder were significantly(p<0.001) increased as the acaiberry powder levels (0%, 2%, 4%, 6%, and 8%) increased. The pH and $^{\circ}brix$ values of Yanggaeng added with acaiberry powder were significantly reduced as the acaiberry powder levels(0%, 2%, 4%, 6%, and 8%) increased (p<0.001). According to the hunter color of Yanggaeng added with acaiberry powder, the L-value(lightness) and the b-value(yellowness) significantly decreased(p<0.001), whereas the a-value(redness) increased as the acaiberry powder levels increased(p<0.001). For the textural characteristics, the addition of acaiberry powder decreased the hardness(p<0.001), gumminess(p<0.001), cohesiveness(p<0.05), and chewiness(p< 0.01), whereas springiness not significantly changed. The total polyphenol contents and DPPH radical scavenging activities were significantly increased aciberry powder(p<0.01, p<0.001). In sensory evaluation, Yanggaeng addition with 4% acaiberry powder had excellent scores in taste and overall sensory preference. These results suggest that acaiberry powder may be a useful ingredient in Yanggaeng for the improvement of sensory preference and antioxidant potential. Considering both the functional and sensory preference aspects of the acaiberry Yanggaeng, the 4% acaiberry powder dosage level can be considered ideal.

This study was conducted the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of Bulgogi sauce added with concentrated Curcuma longa L.. Increasing the amount of concentrated Curcuma longa L. in the Bulgogi sauce tended to increase the pH values, lightness(L), redness(a) and yellowness(b) values. It also tended to increase DPPH radical activity, but total polyphenol contents of Bulgogi sauce added with concentrated Curcuma longa L. were not significantly different among all the samples. In sensory evaluation, Bulgogi sauce added with 10% concentrated Curcuma longa L. had an excellent score in sensory taste, but Bulgogi sauce added with 20% concentrated Curcuma longa L. had an excellent score in overall preference. Seasoned roasted beef addition with 20% concentrated Curcuma longa L. had an excellent score in sensory preference. Therefore, this results suggest that 20% concentrated Curcuma longa L. should be applied to Bulgogi sauce for high sensory preference.
