Effect of EDTA, gallic acid, phosphoric acid, propyl gallate and sodium ascorbate on the photostability of anthocyanin extracted from purple-fleshed sweet potato were investigated by measuring the absorbance at 530 nm with a spectrophotometer. White light of 20,000 lux was used to illuminate the pigment and the temperature was $20^{\circ}C$. EDTA and sodium ascorbate were more effective in improving the photostability of the pigment when added at least 100 or 1,000 ppm, respectively.

Rheological properties of sweet potato starch (SPS)-glucose composites (5%, w/w) at different concentrations (0, 10, 20, and 30%, w/w) of glucose were investigated in steady and dynamic shear. The steady shear rheological properties of SPS-glucose composites were determined from rheological parameters for power law and Casson flow models. At $25^{\circ}C$ all the samples showed a pronounced shear-thinning behaviors (n=0.29-0.37) with high Casson yield stress. In general, the presence of glucose resulted in the decrease in consistence index (K), apparent viscosity (${\eta}_{a,100}$), and yield stress (${\sigma}_{oc}$). Storage (G') and loss (G") moduli increased with an increase in frequency ($\omega$), while complex viscosity (${\eta}*$) decreased. Dynamic moduli (G', G", and ${\eta}*$) of the SPS-glucose composites at higher glucose concentrations (20 and 30%) were higher than those of the control (0% glucose) and also increased with increasing glucose concentration from 10 to 30%. The effect of glucose on steady and dynamic shear rheological properties of the SPS pastes appears to greatly depend on glucose concentration in the range of 10-30%.

This study compared aroma compositions and sensory aroma attributes of raw and cooked Tenebrio molitor larvae (mealworms). Main sensory aroma attributes of raw mealworms were strong wet-soil-like, and less-intense oily, shrimp-like and sweet-corn-like. Quantitatively, the major aroma components of raw mealworms were hydrocarbons and aldehydes. As cooking proceeded, sweet-corn-like, roasted, and fried-oil-like sensory attributes were increasingly perceived with steaming, roasting, and frying, respectively. Some pyrazines, pyrrolidines, and carbonyls increased or appeared in roasted and fried mealworms. Partial least squares regression also showed differences in raw and cooked mealworms based on aroma components and their sensory attributes. Unlike raw mealworms, steamed mealworms had a relatively strong sweet-corn-like aroma attribute, which was related to 2,4,6-trimethyl-heptane, 2,4-dimethyl-dodecane, and 3,5-dihydroxy-6-methyl-2,3-dihydropyran-4-one. In comparison, roasted and fried mealworms exhibited roasted, shrimp-like, and fried-oil-like aroma attributes, which were associated with intermediates of the Maillard reaction and lipid oxidation, such as pyrazines, alcohols, and aldehydes. This result during thermal reactions was very similar to those of meat and/or seafood. The use of mealworms as a savory-type flavor enhancer can be expected.

Lactic fermented dongchimi naengmyeun broth which has enhanced antioxidative activity was developed. During lactic fermentation of dongchimi naengmyeun broth at $25^{\circ}C$, changes of total lactic acid bacteria, pH, acidity, soluble phenolics, and anthocyanins were investigated. After 72 h of fermentation, the stronger antioxidant activities were observed in dongchimi naengmyeun broth supplemented with purple sweet potato than those of control dongchimi naengmyeun broth which showing 96.80% in DPPH radical scavenging activity, 100.82% in $ABTs^{+{\cdot}}$ scavenging activity, 7.77 in reducing power, and 6.89 in ferric reducing/antioxidant power, respectively. These high antioxidant activities related with higher contents of soluble phenolics and anthocyanins in dongchimi naengmyeun broth supplemented with purple sweet potato. The results suggest that the making of functional dongchimi naengmyeun broth by using high soluble phenolics and anthocyanins supplements such as purple sweet potato powder was possible.

The physicochemical properties of sweet potato (SP) starches reclaimed from an SP-processing sludge without freezing (RC/NF) and with freezing (RC/FR) were investigated. Lab-isolated (LI) SP starch, as a control, were prepared from raw SP. RC/NF and RC/FR SP starches were recovered from SP-processing sludges by the repeated sieving and washing procedure. The total starch contents and amylopectin branch-chain distributions did not differ for three SP starches. Relative to LI and RC/NF SP starches (possessing similar physicochemical characteristics), the apparent amylose and phosphorus contents, swelling factor, and pasting viscosity were reduced for RC/FR SP starch. However, the freezing treatment altered X-ray diffraction pattern (at $5.5^{\circ}$, $11-12^{\circ}$, and $24^{\circ}$ $2{\theta}$) of RC/FR SP starch, which likely increased its gelatinization peak and completion temperatures. Its amorphous region in total diffractogram was reduced, resulting in the enhanced relative crystallinity. Overall results suggested SP starches recovered from an SP-processing sludge would have the potential to replace commercial SP starch products.

To improve the quality of traditional Doeniang, the sea tangle, sea mustard, or anchovy powder were added to soybean paste and matured for 90 days. The quality and sensory evaluation of the Doenjang were analysed. The addition of anchovy showed higher fat and protein contents in the Doenjang. In the mineral contents, the sweet tangle and anchovy addition significantly increased Mg and K contents. The reducing sugar content showed 9.4% in the Doenjang prepared with sweet tangle and anchovy powder than 6.0% of the control. However, the pH and acidity were not showed any significantly difference at the 5% level by Duncan's multiple range test. The amino nitrogen content was 618.7 mg% in the anchovy Doeniang that is higher than 531.1 mg% of the control. The addition of sweet tangle and anchovy to the Doenjang showed higher score in the sensory evaluation.
