Modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) was applied to steamed bread added with black rice in 10%. In terms of storage stability, the steamed bread was found to be susceptible to microbial spoilage and could be helped in its preservation and shelf life extension by MAP. According to microbial and sensory quality criteria, the product shelf life was determined as < 5 days for air package, 5 days for 100% $N_2$ package, 8 days for package of 60% $CO_2$/40% $N_2$, and 15 days for 100% $CO_2$ package. Even though MAP condition with $CO_2$ inclusion was effective in extending the shelf life based on microbial quality, it did not affect the staling of the bread.

This study was to investigate the effect of 5~20% soybean flout(SBF) and/or 0.5~5% calcium on the quality of bread. pH of bread was increased with increasing an amount of SBF and calcium. pH of bread was higher than that of dough. The scores of specific volume and sensory evaluation for the bread quality were shown higher and increased its relative volume in the group of added both of 5~15%, SBF and 0.5~2%, calcium Endothermic peak for a thermal property of bread was increased with increasing the storage time of bread. The bread staling was progressed rapidly in control and calcium added groups only. with increasing an amount of SBF, L values of bread was decreased, but a and b values were increased. However, L, a and b values were shown no difference in the group of calcium added only. Therefore, the optimum blending ratios of SBF and calcium for the quality of bread were 5~10%, SBF and 0.5~1% calcium, respectively.

The principal objective of this study is to develop the optimal recipe for muffins prepared with replacement of sucrose with xylitol. The effect of xylitol on properties of muffins was evaluated in terms of height, volume, weight, specific volume, baking loss rate, crumbScan, colorimeter, sensory evaluation, and staling of muffins during storage days(0, 1, 3, 5 days) was measured by texture analyzer. Hardness of muffins was increased by adding xylitol, significantly during storage. Lightness(L value) of crust was increased significantly as the contents of xylitol increased. According to sensory evaluation, the muffins(control group) without xylitol had highest score in appearance and texture. In flavor, taste and overall acceptance, muffins with 25% of xylitol showed the best result but were not significant between the muffins(control group).

Many embedded real-time systems have adopted processors supported with dynamic voltage scaling(DVS) recently. Power is one of the important metrics for optimization in the design and operation of embedded real-time systems. We can save considerable energy by using slowdown of processor supported with DVS. In this paper, we propose heuristic algorithms to calculate task slowdown factors for an efficient energy consumption in embedded real-time systems with task synchronization. The previous algorithm has a following constraint : given the tasks are ordered in a nondecreasing order of their relative deadline, the task slowdown factors computed are in a nonincreasing order. In this paper, we relax the constraint and propose heuristic algorithms which have the same time complexity that previous algorithm has and can save more energy. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithms are energy efficient.

In beer, glutathione works as the main antioxidant compound, which also correlates with the stability of the beer flavor. In addition, high residual sugars in beer contribute to major nonvolatile components, which are reflected in a high caloric content. Therefore, in this study, the Saccharomyces cerevisiae GSH1 gene encoding glutamylcysteine synthetase and the Saccharomycopsis fibuligera ALP1 gene encoding ${\alpha}$-amylase were coexpressed in industrial brewing yeast strain Y31 targeting the ${\alpha}$-acetolactate synthase (AHAS) gene (ILV2) and alcohol dehydrogenase gene (ADH2), resulting in the new recombinant strain TY3. The glutathione content in the fermentation broth of TY3 increased to 43.83 mg/l as compared with 33.34 mg/l in the fermentation broth of Y31. The recombinant strain showed a high ${\alpha}$-amylase activity and utilized more than 46% of the starch as the sole carbon source after 5 days. European Brewery Convention tube fermentation tests comparing the fermentation broths of TY3 and Y31 showed that the flavor stability index for TY3 was 1.3-fold higher, whereas its residual sugar concentration was 76.8% lower. Owing to the interruption of the ILV2 gene and ADH2 gene, the contents of diacetyl and acetaldehyde as off-flavor compounds were reduced by 56.93% and 31.25%, respectively, when compared with the contents in the Y31 fermentation broth. In addition, since no drug-resistant genes were introduced to the new recombinant strain, it should be more suitable for use in the beer industry, owing to its better flavor stability and other beneficial characteristics.

Sorbic acid and potassium sorbate are widely used food additives with high efficiancy and they are approved and recommended by FAO and WHO. Sorbic acid is one of preservatives that is mostly used in general food. Sorbic acid and potassium sorbate are used to prevent food, such as cheese, bread, beverage, and so on, from staling and molding. The world market for sorbic acid and potassium sorbate is growing and the market in Asian region is also expected to grow rapidly. This study was carried out to measure the amount of the sorbic acid in cooked meat produced from meat processing plants in Gyeongbuk province during 2000∼2003. One thousand one hundred and thirty-five samples of cooked meat(430 spices added meats, 486 grinding cooked meats, 3 bacons, 23 jerked meats, 68 sausages, 125 hams) were collected from meat processing plants and analyzed for the concentration of preservative sorbic acid by using of high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC). Sorbic acid was not detected in spices added meats, grinding cooked meats and bacons, except on jerked meats, ham and sausage. But the concentration range of sorbic acid in jerked meat was 0.00∼1.5g/kg, average 0.37g/kg, and in sausage was 0.00∼1.31g/kg, average 0.53g/kg, and in ham was 0.00∼ 1.22g/kg, average 0.56g/kg. There was no sample that sorbate concentration exceeded the legal permitted level 2.0g/kg in cooked meat.

Green tea extract(GTE) was added to pall bread, prepared by the straight-dough method, and its effects on shelf-life(moisture, pH, titratable acidity, antimicrobial activity) and sensory quality of pan bread were evaluated. The results of those characteristics for staling indicated that quality of pan bread was significantly extended by addition of GTE. Growth of microorganisms was significantly inhibited by adding GTE to pan bread, and sensory quality on pan bread added GTE was no significant differ in color, flavour, hardness, chewiness and overall-quality than that of control group(0% GTE). These results suggest that the shelf- life of pan bread was extended by GTE.

Replacement of wheat flour by 10, 20 30% waxy and normal (non-waxy) hull-less barley flour was tested for the effects on bread-making properties. The addition of waxy hull-less barley flour resulted in lower amylograph pasting temperature, peak, and set back viscosities and in higher water absorption, compared with normal hull-less barley flour. Increasing proportions of hull-less barley flour significantly decreased the loaf volume and had deleterious effects on subjective bread scoring. Replacement of 10% of wheat flour by both waxy and normal hull-less barley flour did not significantly affect bread characteristics. However, significant differences in bread quality were observed between the control bread and bread containing more than 20% barley flour, with the normal barley flour showing slightly better scores in organoleptical preference. Textural measurements of crumb firmness showed that the bread containing 20% waxy hull-less barley flour hardened slower during 5-day storage at $25^{\circ}C$ than bread containing normal hull-lee barley flour.

Germinated brown rice (GBR) flour (0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%) was added to brown rice (BR) and white rice (WR) flours and the densities of pound cake batters, morphology, color value, textural properties, sensory preference test, and hardness during storage were investigated, in order to develop health functional gluten-free rice pound cakes with high nutritional value. The rice was milled with the newly developed rice milling method. The entire shape and cross section of all cakes were symmetrical and desirable. The density of pound cake batter and weight of cake increased with addition of increasing GBR. Specific volume was not significantly different (2.1-2.4 mL/g). Textural properties of cakes between WR-GBR and BR-GBR showed different trends with adding GBR. On the sensory test, overall quality of rice pound cake did not significantly differ between rice flour types. Hardness of rice pound cakes and brittleness decreased with increasing addition of GBR flour. The hardness and the peak intensity at $2{\theta}=17^{\circ}$ decreased with increasing addition of GBR. The results, that addition of GBR flour improved the nutrition value and functionality of gluten free rice pound cakes and prevented staling of rice pound cakes during storage.

This study examined the effects of sprouted brown rice (SR), gluten (G), and hydroxypropyl-methyl-cellulose (H) on the suppression of retrogradation in breads made with Korean wheat flour. An amylograph was used to determined the pasting properties of dough samples made with Korean wheat flour and additions of SR, SR+G, SR+H, and SR+G+H, respectively. In addition, a texture analyzer was employed to measure the hardness changes of bread samples left at room temperature for 72 hours. Finally, the type of retrogradation was calculated by the Avrami equation. The results showed that the addition of SR significantly decreased dough viscosity. However, the dough samples containing SR, G, and H all displayed reduced cold paste viscosity and setback, indicating a suppression of staling. The bread samples containing SR added to Korean wheat flour had increased hardness, but the addition of gluten (SR+G) reduced hardness. Upon examining the bread samples stored at room temperature for 24 hours, it was shown that the addition of G and H with SR (SR+G+H) suppressed retrogradation. Finally, the Avrami model data indicated that the type of retrogradation varied according to the addition of SR, G, and H. The breads made with hard wheat flour (HWF), WM, and WM+SR+H had similar Avrami exponents ($1.20{\sim}1.28$), while those for WM+SR, WM+SR+G, and WM+SR+G+H ranged from 2.7 to 3.3. Overall, the combined addition of SR and H was considered effective for preventing retrogradation in bread made with Korean wheat flour.
