The quality properties of oak mushroom were investigated using extraction conditions and enzyme treatments. The physiochemical properties were excellent at the extraction temperatures of $20^{\circ}C\;and\;40^{\circ}C$. The quality was increased as the extraction time increased but was best at the extraction time of 10 hr. The physiochemical properties such as soluble solid, reducing sugar and crude protein contents were best at the solvent ratio of 1:100 (w/v) so that it was set at 1:100. Thus, enzyme treatment was done at $50^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr with the solvent ratio of 1:100. The result showed that the best quality was shown using 0.2% protease and 0.2% cellulase. With the enzyme treatment, the essential amino acid contents increased by two folds but no difference was shown in $\beta-glucan$ content.

To produce super sweet corn sikhye, substituted for sweetener, the ratio of rice and super sweet corn was adjusted and processed with complex enzymes during saccharification, and their physicochemical and sensory properties were analyzed. The soluble solid content of the control and Corn-5 showed significantly high content at 13.50 °Brix, and the reducing sugar content of Corn-5 showed the highest content at 9.45%. The control showed the lowest free sugar content among all the experimental groups, excluding maltose content. In the enzyme-treated corn sikhye group, as the amount of super sweet corn increased, the content of sucrose decreased and the contents of glucose and fructose increased. The content of ascorbic acid and polyphenol compounds increased as the amount of super sweet corn increased. DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging abilities increased with increasing ratio of super sweet corn and enzyme treatment compared to the control. In the case of sensory evaluation, Corn-3, which substituted 30% of super sweet corn for rice and treated with enzymes, showed higher evaluations in taste, sweetness, and overall preference than those of the control.

Flower and fruit characteristics, in 'Hongro' and 'Galaxy Gala' apples, were investigated by bearing branch lengths and flower bud position such as blow 5 cm, $10{\sim}15cm$ and above 20 cm length with terminal bud, and above 20 cm length with axillary bud for investigation on possibility of alternative use of long bearing branch and axillary bud in case of die-back of spur flower bud. In flowering characteristics by flower bud position in the above 20 cm length, the terminal bud was later and was short in flowering period, and also was little in number of flower per bud. Fruit weight, number of seeds, and sugar-acid ratio, in characteristics of ripening fruit, were more the blow 5 cm and $10{\sim}15cm$ length, but soluble solid and malic acid contents was the opposite tendency. In fruit characteristics by flower bud position in the above 20 cm length, the terminal bud had high tendency expected far number of seed in 'Hongro' and Hunter a value of 'Galaxy Gala' apple but had not significant difference. Correlation between fruit weight and number of seed was high. As the results, value of alternative use of long bearing branch in apples had a little expected for fruit weight, especially was more 'Galaxy Gala' and the axillary bud.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of pretreatment and different packaging methods on the physicochemical properties of cold vacuum-dried peaches. All the dried peach samples were stored such as $N_2$ gas substitution, vacuum and passive packaged with polyethylene (PE) film and oriented polypropylene (OPP)/aluminum (Al)/PE film at $40^{\circ}C$ for 50 days. The weight change, pH, soluble solids content, titratable acidity, soluble solid-acid ratio (SS/TA), delta E, browning degree and phenolic compounds were analyzed. The weight change and pH were lower in the 0.1% vitamin C-treated group and were significantly lowest in the vacuum-treated OPP/AL/PE. The soluble solids content and the SS/TA were higher in the non-treated groups than in the vitamin C-treated groups. According to the packaging methods, the $L^*$ values were higher in the vacuum, $N_2$ gas and passive package, in that order. In addition, the browning degree and the delta E value were lower in the pretreated groups and significantly lowest in the vacuum-treated OPP/AL/PE with 0.1% vitamin C group. The phenolic compounds were high for the pretreated groups, according to the packaging methods (vacuum > $N_2$ gas> passive), and the OPP/AL/PE was significantly higher than the PE. These results suggest that different packaging materials and pretreatment methods affected the quality of the dried peaches, and the vacuum-OPP/AL/PE film packaging group showed a high quality.

This study was carried out to clarify seasonal changes of chemical compositions and their interrelation in leaves, shoots and berries treated with gibberellin($GA$_{3}$)for seedless grapes in ‘Delaware’grapevines. the clusters were dipped twice with 100ppm $GA_{3}$: 10 days befor and after the full bloom. The reaults obtained as follows; 1. Cumulative growth curve of berry fresh weight showed a double sigmoid curve and the characteristics of three distinctive growth stages(I, II, III)were weekened with $GA_{3}$ treatment. 2. while the contents of ash, total carbon, total nitrogen and total carbohydratd had little reation with edvelopment and ripeness of berries, those of total sugar and starch jad close relation, viz., they decreased with enlargement and maturity fo berries, but increased rapidly after harvest in leaves and shoots. Especially, total sugars in leaves and shoots decreased coincidently with starch-increasing in shoots at November. 3. The contents of total soluble solid and reducing sugar in berries increased rapidly at growth stage III, but those of total titratable acidity and organic acid decreased coincidently with sugar-increasing. 4. The berry-hardness increased until growth stage I, and then stagnated until gtowth stage II, and then increased rapidly at growth stage III. pH of berry-juice decreased until growth stageII, afterwards increased at growth stage III. 5. By correlation and path coefficient analysis between qualitative characters and the ratio of total soluble solid to titratable acidity($^{\circ}$Brix/Acidity), total correlation coefficients were all highly significant. Of these characters, pH and viscosity of berry-juice were positive, but brightness and hardness of berry, negative. The direct effect of pH on $^{\circ}$Brix/Acidity ratio, p4y=0.9090, was large positively and those of berry-hardness and juice-viscosity, p1y=0, 5938, median and, p2y=0, 3550, small, respectively. Direct effect of brightness was negatively small.

This study was conducted to investigate several indicators of fruit maturity, and expert sensory evaluation was done to determine the most appropriate maturity time for the new Korea grape cultivar 'doonuri' for high quality winemaking. The grape component changed dramatically during ripening, after veraison. Considerable drops in berry firmness (<0.60 kgf/$cm^2$) and titratable acidity (<0.66%) were found at the ripening stage while the soluble solid content significantly increased in the ripening process. Most of the organic acids contained were tartaric and malic acid. The malic acid content was about twice the tartaric acid content in the fruit-growing period but was less than the tartaric acid content in the maturity period. The total anthocyanin and polyphenol contents increased sharply after veraison. In particular, the total anthocyanin and polyphenol contents reached their maximum levels when the acidity was 0.55%, and after that, there was almost no change. Correlations between anthocyanin accumulation and several factors were found in sugar 0.7811 (p<0.05), pH 0.9315 (p<0.05), and Brix/acid ratio 0.9409 (p<0.05). $Brix{\times}pH^2$ and brix/acid ratio were used as indicators of the proper maturation of the grapes when the acidity was 0.53 to 0.55%, and at sugar 17 Brix. When surveyed, the quality characteristics and sensory evaluation of the wine made using the latest harvested grapes showed the most reliable sourness. The color, aroma, and overall harmony of the wine, however, were evaluated to be the best when the wine acidity was about 0.60% or when the grape acidity was below 0.55%.

For the production of ${\gamma}-aminobutyric$ acid (GABA) contents increased Seomaeyaksuk fermentant, 0, 0.25, 0.5 and 1.0% of monosodium galutamate (MSG) was added in Seomaeyaksuk water extract 15% contained Sikhye and inoculated with Lactobacillus brevis (KI271266). Physicochemical properties were sampling and analyzed at each 1 day during 3 days fermentation. Goes on fermentation periods, the turbidity was gradually reduced, but lightness and the yellowness was increased, redness was decreased. Soluble solid was also decreased. The reducing sugars content were also decreased during fermentation. pH was 4.65-4.83 before fermentation but it was lower 3.15-3.68 after three days fermentation. The GABA contents increased by fermentation periods and it was the highest in MSG 1.0% added sample (354.38 mg/L). Fructose, glucose and sucrose contents were 50-67% decreased at three days fermentation than before fermentation. Among the organic acids, propionic acid, oxalic acid, citric acid and fumaric acid contents were decreased and lactic acid, acetic acid and succinic acid were increased during fermentation periods. Contents of total polyphenol and DPPH radical scavenging activity were the highest in MSG 0.5% added sample. From these results, we confirmed that increasing of GABA content when the manufacturing of Seomaeyaksuk lactic acid fermentation product, is possibile by addition of MSG without affecting physicochemical characteristics.

Dilution concentration of watermelon juice, concentrations of added sugar, citric acid, and vitamin C, sterilization temperature and time, and natural color extracts were evaluated to determine optimum conditions for watermelon beverage production. Optimum dilution concentration of watermelon juice and optimum content of soluble solid were 40% and $12^{\circ}Brix$, respectively. Addition of 0.5 and 0.3 g/L or 1.0 and 0.3 g/L citric acid and vitamin C gave optimum sensory quality. Sterilization of watermelon beverage at above $70^{\circ}C$ decreased redness. Sterilization at $60^{\circ}C$ for 10 to 30 min or at $70^{\circ}C$ for 10 min achieved best sensory quality. Addition of 20 g/L raspberries gave best sensory quality among raspberries, omija, and borage. Hot water was better than alcohol for extraction of natural color. Ratio of extracts for optimum sensory quality was 7 : 3 for extract of 20 g raspberries/L : extract of 30 g omija/L.
