As a research on the practical approaches of gamma irradiation for the reduction of egg allergy, cakes including gamma-irradiated egg white were manufactured, and rheological characteristics and sensory qualities of the cakes were evaluated. Egg white was separated from whole egg and then gamma-irradiated with the absorbed dose of 10 or 20 kGy White layer cake, pound cake and sponge cake were made with irradiated egg white and used to the subsequent experiments. Firmness of all samples containing irradiated egg white was higher than that of control. Retrogradation of pound and sponge cakes containing irradiated egg white was delayed, and the result showed that the usage of irradiated egg white was better at the point of rheological storage ability. Effects of irradiated egg white on the sensory quality were different depending onto the properties of each product. Radiation off-odor was observed in the a11 samples containing irradiated egg white. To maintain the sensory Qualify, adequate methods such as masking effects should be developed during manufacture.

The effects of replacement of wheat flour with 10, 20, and 30% chestnut flour on the bread-making properties and quality characteristics of bread were evaluated. Among the physical characteristics of the dough, the development time in the farinogram decreased with increasing amounts of chestnut flour, and the dough stability and durability were reduced. In the amylogram, there was a slight increase in the gelatinization starting temperature when compared to the control flour, but the maximum viscosity gradually decreased in response to increasing amounts of chestnut flour. The expansion ratio did not increase in the dough containing 20 or 30% chestnut flour. Moreover, the loaf volume and specific volume of bread containing 20 and 30% chestnut flour were smaller than those of the control and the 10% treatment. The hardness of bread containing 10% chestnut flour($700g/cm^2$) was lower than that of the other treatments($1413-1,627g/cm^2$). Furthermore, bread containing 10% chestnut flour had denser porous structures than the other treatments. The sensory evaluation tests revealed that the 10% treatment had higher sensory scores for the internal and external qualities of bread than the other treatments.

Objective: The present work aimed at evaluating the effects of carcass quality grade (QG) on the quality characteristics of pork meat according to Korean carcass QG system. Methods: Pork carcasses with varying in QG: 1+ (QG1+, n = 10), 1 (QG1, n = 10) and 2 (QG2, n = 10), were used to evaluate the relationship between carcass QG and meat quality. The meat quality traits, fatty acid profiles, flavor compounds and sensory qualities were measured on the longissimus dorsi muscle samples of these carcasses. Results: Pork meat of higher QG (QG1+) presented significantly higher fat content (5.43%), C18:2n-6 level (19.03%) and total unsaturated fatty acids content (62.72%). Also, the QG1+ meat was significantly higher in levels of classes of flavor compounds such as aldehydes, alcohols and hydrocarbons in comparison to those of the meat samples from the lower QG groups. The sensory evaluation results (flavor, juiciness, tenderness, and acceptability scores) of QG1+ meat was significantly higher than the QG1 and QG2 meats. The pork with lower QG (i.e., QG2) was found positively correlated to redness (r = 0.987), C18:1n-9 level (r = 1.000) but negatively correlated to the fat content (r = -0.949), and flavor (r = -0.870), juiciness (r = -0.861), tenderness (r = -0.862) and acceptability (r = -0.815) scores. Conclusion: The pork with higher QG had higher fat content, total unsaturated fatty acids and better eating quality, thus producing pork with higher QGs should be considered in order to satisfy the consumer's expectation.

This study focused on understanding the effects of yeast and mold on the sensory properties of dry-cured ham aged at 20℃ and 25℃. Debaryomyces hansenii isolated from Doenjang and fermented sausages, and Penicillium nalgiovense isolated from fermented sausages were utilized. The CIE a^* tended to increase in all treatments as the aging period increased. At 6 weeks of aging, DFD25 showed a significantly higher CIE a^* value than other treatments. The shear force tended to increase in all treatments as the aging period increased. At 6 weeks of aging, among the treatments aged at 25℃, DFD25 showed a low tendency to shear force. The PC1 of the electronic nose was 42.872%. At 25℃, the hexane content was higher and levels of ethanol, propan-2-one, 2,4,5-trimethylthiazole, and limonene were lower than that at 20℃. DFD25 showed significantly higher hexane content and significantly lower limonene content than other treatments. The PC1 of the electronic tongue was 84.529%. All treatments, except for the C starter, exhibited higher salt and lower sour levels at 25℃ compared to 20℃ when the same starter was used. The DFD25 showed the lowest sour taste and a higher tendency of umami than the other treatments. Sensory evaluation revealed that DFD25 had significantly higher scores for texture than C25, whereas no significant differences were observed in other aspects. Therefore, the used starters are considered suitable for aging at 25℃; among them, the DFD starter demonstrates superior qualities and enhanced commercial potential compared to the control.

Four different spices (herbs) including rosemary, oregano, basil & sage and green tea were added individually to the ground pork or ground chicken with different percentages of 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5, respectively. The consumer sensory qualities of the five natural herbs and their antioxidant effects were evaluated using pork- and chicken-Yukwonjeon. In our consumer sensory evaluation, the 0.5% herb addition and control groups had generally better acceptability than the higher addition groups. In particular, pork-Yukwonjeon with the addition of 0.5% of green tea or oregano and chicken-Yukwonjeon with the addition of 0.5% of green tea or rosemary 0.5% were generally preferred more profoundly on the acceptance and ranking tests. However, sensory differences, especially in texture, among the different samples were reduced after storage. With regard to the results of lipid oxidation without storage, the TBARS values of the herb addition groups were slightly lower than those of the control group, but not significantly so (p>0.05). The antioxidant effects of each herb achieved higher values at longer storage times and with higher levels of added herbs. The antioxidant effects differed with different kinds of meat. The addition of the herb samples resulted in TBARS value reductions of $15.0{\sim}45.8%$ and $9.5{\sim}31.0%$, respectively, in the pork and chicken-Yukwonjeon stored at $6^{\circ}C$. Furthermore, the antioxidant effects of herbs during storage at $-20^{\circ}C$ were observed as reducing in the TBARS values of $8.4{\sim}31.7%$ and $19.0{\sim}33.0%$ in the pork-and chicken-Yukwonjeon, respectively. Green tea evidenced the highest levels of antioxidant activity on lipid oxidation, as it was acceptable even at higher concentrations according to our sensory evaluations. These results illustrate the possibility of producing superior Yukwongen with green tea and herbs, according to the different kinds of meat used.

Four different herbs, including rosemary, oregano, basil and sage, along with green tea were individually added to ground beef at different percentages: 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5, respectively. The sensory qualities of the five natural herbs and their antioxidant effects were evaluated using Beef-Yukwonjeon. For the sensory evaluation results, the 0.5% herb addition and the control group generally showed higher acceptability scores than the 1.0% or 1.5% herb addition groups. In particular, the Yukwonjeon made with 0.5% green tea showed higher preferences in the acceptance tests and ranking tests. However, the sensory differences among samples were reduced after 3 days of storage at $6^{\circ}C$. For the results of lipid oxidation without storage, the TBARS values of the herb addition groups were slightly lower than the value of the control group, but not significantly(p>0.05). However, the antioxidant effects of each herb showed higher values over a longer storage period as well as at the higher herb concentrations. The antioxidant effects of the herbs during 7 days' of storage at $6^{\circ}C$ were evaluated as $10.0{\sim}38.5%$ reductions in TBARS values as compared to the group without herbs. Furthermore, the antioxidant effects of the herbs during 30 days' of storage at $-20^{\circ}C$ were shown as $16.8{\sim}27.8%$ reductions in the TBARS value. The green tea showed the highest antioxidant activity against lipid oxidation, because it was acceptable at higher concentrations in the sensory evaluation. These results indicate the potential to produce better quality beef-Yukwonjeon, with herbs, especially green tea.

Backsulgies containing various levels of guar gum(0g, 2.5g or 5g) were ingested by ten healthy male subjects after 12-h fast. Guar backsulgies was given a time in a week a time in a week for 3 weeks with 75g glucose. The Sensory qualities of backsulgies containing guar gum powder of different levels(0g, 2.5, 5g) were also evaluated using a hedonic scoring technique. On each test day 4ml samples of venous blood were taken from the fasted subjects. Further 4ml post-prandial blood samples were taken from the subjects 30, 60, 90 and 120min after guar backsulgies had commenced. Result were as follows: Plasma glucose and insulin levels were not sifnificantly reduced according to guar gum levels in backsulgies. But plasma glucose and insulin levels of the case which ingested 5g guar backsulgies tended to be lower than those of the case which ingested 0g or 2.5g guar backsulgies. Therefore it is recommended that 5g guar backsulgies is most effective snack of diabetics. KEY WORDS: guar backsulgies plasma glucose, plasma insulin, snack.

This study was performed to investigate the qualities of jelly supplemented with purple sweet potato (C:0 g, P1:1 g, P3:3 g, P5:5 g, P7:7 g). The pH decreased (acidity increased) with the addition of purple sweet potato powder (p<0.01). The sugar content of the jelly also significantly increased when purple sweet potato was added. The DPPH radical scavenging activities of jelly increased as the addition of purple sweet potato increased. As the content of purple sweet potato increased, the L and b values decreased and the "a value" increased. In terms of textural characteristics, the addition of purple sweet potato increased hardness and springiness, while it decreased the cohesiveness. The results of the sensory evaluation showed that the appearance, flavor, taste, texture, and overall acceptability gave the highest score for jelly containing 5 g of purple sweet potato (P5).

Caking has been a serious problem in food, feed, pharmaceutical, and related industries, where dry powdered materials are produced and/or utilized. Caking of dry food powders occurs when water is redistributed or absorbed by the powders during processing and storage. The powders become sticky when their surfaces are mobilized by water, resulting in inter-particle binding, formation of clusters, and inter-particle fusion, which lead to caking. As a result of caking, the solubility of the powdered materials may decrease, lipid oxidation and enzymatic activity may increase, and sensory qualities such as flavor and crispness may deteriorate. Caking may also lead to microbial growth. For consumers, caking of powder products is a sign of poor quality and possible food safety problems. This paper provides a review of factors affecting caking, caking mechanisms, and analysis of caking based on previous studies.
