We investigated the texture of the sweet potato starch gels treated with maltogenic amylase. Effects of branched gluco-oligosaccharides and acorn starch on the texture of the sweet potato starch gel were also investigated. Hardness and cohesiveness of gels were measured by using Instron and sensory evaluation on the gel properties was performed. From the results of the instrumental analysis, it was found that the overall textural properties as Mook could be improved by adding branched glucooligosaccharides, maltogenic amylase or acorn starch to the sweet potato starch gel. As a result, there was a decrease in the cohesiveness of gels while the hardness of gels increased. The sensory evaluation study indicated that the sweet potato starch gels treated with 0.02% maltogenic amylase, or added with 12.5% branched gluco-oligosaccharides, or mixed with 50% acorn starch had preferable quality as Mook.

This study was undertaken for the purpose of studying the physicochemical propery of mungbean and texture of mungbean starch gels. Mungbean starch gel made with different levels of oil were tested to investigate the textural characteristics by mechanical test. The results are summerized as fallows: The content of moisture fat, protein, and ash in Seonwha mungbean were shown to be about 13.19%, 1.02%, 23.57% 3.13% respectively. Those of Seonwha mungbean crude starch were 12.48%, 0.63%, 0.94%, 0.13% respectively. The gain of dry crude starch from peeled mungbean was 22.48%. Water binding capacity of Seonwha mungbean crude starch was 183.1%. The pattern of change in swelling power of Seonwha mungbean crude starch for increasing temperature increased slowly to $70^{\circ}C$, and then increased rapidly. The pattern of change in solubility was similar to that of swelling power. The amylose and amylopectin content were 22.5%, 77.5%. Brabender hot-paste viscosities of mungbean crude starch at 8% and 10% showed the similar amylogram patterns with peak vicosity. By the Rheometer measurement result of 8% 10% mungbean starch gel, Hardness and Fractuability tended to be decreased as the addition level of oil increased. Elasticity, Adhesiveness, Chewiness, L, a, and b value tended to be increased as the addition level of oil increased.

The physical properties of acorn and chestnut gels by various heating temperature were investigated. In microsturcture analysis by SEM, acorn starch gels of 9$0^{\circ}C$$90^{\circ}C$ showed regular three dimensional network structure and chestnut starch gels had finer porous network from $70^{\circ}C$. X-ray diffraction patterns of two starch gels showed very weak peak at 8~$10^{\circ}C$ and 16~$19^{\circ}C$. Hardness had the highest value at $90^{\circ}C$ and $98^{\circ}C$ for acorn gels, and $80^{\circ}C$ for chestnut gels. But cohesiveness increased with heating temperature in both of two starch gels.

This study was attempted to investigate the sensory and textural characteristics of mungbean starch gels with soy bean oil and sucrose fatty acid ester(SE) addition during room temperature storage. Freshly prepared mungbean starch gels, with and without soy bean oil and SE, were stored at 25$^{\circ}C$ for 24, 48 and 72 hours. The color value, syneresis, texture and sensory properties of the gels were measured. The lightness(L) of the gels with soy bean oil and without additives was similar whereas that with SE was lower than that without additives. Syneresis of the gels with soy bean oil and SE was lower than that without additives. Rupture stress, rupture strain and rupture energy of the freshly prepared gel with 2∼4% soy bean oil were increased, but there were no differences in rupture properties between the gel with soy bean oil and that without additives. Rupture stress, rupture stain and rupture energy of all the gels with SE were decreased. Addition of soy bean oil to the gel did not change the texture profile of the gel, whereas hardness, springiness and chewiness of the gel with SE were decreased. In sensory evaluation, the acceptability of freshly prepared gel with soy bean oil was similar to that without additives, whereas that of the gel with 2% soy bean oil stored for 24 hours was higher than that without additives. The acceptability of the gel with SE was decreased significantly.

Effects of commercial and lab-generated gellan gums on the textural properties, structure, and aging of wheat and maize starch gels were investigated using a rapid visco-analyzer (RVA), rheometer, scanning electron microscope (SEM), and X-ray diffractometer. Gellan and guar gums increased the peak and final viscosities, but xanthan gum and gum arabic reduced them. The maize starch had higher breakdown viscosity than the wheat starch, regardless of the type of gum. The hardness of all starch gels increased during storage, but their cohesiveness and springiness decreased. The degree of the gel hardness showed higher in maize starch than in wheat starch and the effect of gum addition had a difference with gum type. The wheat starch-guar and -gellan gum mixed gels showed higher elasticity and cohesiveness after storage. The starch-gellan gum mixed gels had dense and stable network structures, and were well maintained even after 7 days of storage. Most of the gums had anti-aging effect on X-ray diffraction pattern of starch gels.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the quality characteristics of mungbean starch gels that were prepared with different concentrations (0, 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5%) of peach seed powders (PSP), which exhibit antioxidant characteristics. Mungbean starch gel samples were prepared and subjected to quality characteristics such as moisture content, general components, color, texture profile analysis, total polyphenol contents, DPPH radical scavenging activity, and sensory qualities. The L-value and the a-value for color decreased significantly, whereas the b-value increased significantly as the PSP concentration increased (p<0.05). In the texture profile analysis, the mungbean starch gel with 1.5% PSP showed significantly lower degrees of hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess and brittleness (p<0.05). The total polyphenol content was highest in the 1.5% PSP to which mungbean starch gel was added, which also showed a higher than 70% DPPH radical scavenging activity level in a dose-dependent manner (p<0.05). In the sensory test of the mungbean starch gel, its sensory scores for flavor and taste were highest in the 0.5% PSP to which mungbean starch gel was added.

Gelatinization behaviours and gel properties of hydroxypropylated corn starches (HPCS) were investigated with differential scanning calorimeter, amylograph and rheometer. Gelatinization temperature of HPCS decreased as degree of substitution increased. The retrogradation of corn starch was greatly reduced by hydroxypropylation, indicating that the association of starch molecules was sterically hindered by hydroxypropyl groups. In HPCS, gel was formed slowly and gel strength decreased resulting in soft and sticky texture. Texture profiles of HPCS gels were similar to those of tapioca and waxy corn starch. HPCS has shown a remarkable increase of paste transparency compared to native corn starch.

The effect of starches such as potato, corn and wheat starch on the rheological properties of ocean jumbo squid kamaboko was investigated. Changes in the water holding capacity and color values of those kamaboko gels was also studied using the maximum gel strength endowing starch, Wheat starch could ive the better water holding capacity and breaking stress than potato or corn starch within $10{\%}$ additional level but corn starch resulted the highest those value at $20{\%}$ added. Wheat starch had higher level of breaking strain and jelly strength at $10{\%}$ then in descending order were corn starch, potato starch. But those starches were decreased after $15{\%}$ level. Texture map showed the simple rheological properties of each starches heat gel with jumbo squid kamaboko, Corn starch map showed more tough and brittle than the other. Potato starch map showed more elastic gel than corn starch. Wheat starch map could make elastic-mushy gel. There was no significant color differences of each starches but the whiteness of each starch showed increase when the starch rate was increased.

A study was made of the haemolymph protein spectrum of mulberry silkworm (Bomhyx mori L.) from the first larval instar to imago. Horizontal starch gel electrophoresis was used. Sixteen races and eight F1 interracial hybrids, raised in Bulgaria, were analyzed. During the ontogenesis, a total of 17 protein bands (15 cathodic and 2 anodic) were detected. Distinct dynamics in the haemolymph protein spectrum was observed, in result of different expression during the individual development associated with the processes of growth, histolysis and histogenesis. Based on the ontogenetic dynamics found, a correspondence was assumed between some proteins detected by us using the starch gel electrophoresis and major haemolymph proteins (SP1, SP2, MHPs and Vg) detected by other authors using the polyacrilamide gel electrophoresis. Intraracial and interracial polymorphism was observed in four protein zones. The effect of four polymorphic loci with codominant and null alleles was suggested.
