Sweet potato lipids were isolated into free and bound lipid fractions and subjected to fractionation and quantitation by thin layer chromatography, followed by flavor evaluation. The results are summarized as follows: 1) Sweet potato flour contained 1.75% total lipids on a dry weight basis, of which free and bound forms were 0.95% and 0.80%, respectively. 2) TLC indicated the presence of 13 components in free lipids and 9 components in bound lipids, of which phospholipids accounted for 34.5% and free fatty acids, 17.2%, as the major components. 3) Free fatty acids were separated and quantitatively determined by reversed TLC to give 30.1% palmitic acid, 16.7% linoleic acid, 15.8% oleic acid and 9.8% linolenic acid as the main components. 4) The flavor of various lipid fractions were evaluated and the disagreeable taste and odor of sweet potato flour was mainly found in the bound lipid fraction.

Cookies were prepared by adding different levels (0, 5, 10, 15, and 20%) of purple sweet potato powder (PSPP) and their physicochemical and sensory characteristics were examined. With increase of the PSPP level, moisture content decreased and ash content increased (p<0.05). The spread factor of control cookies was higher than that of cookies containing PSPP. The incorporation of PSPP in cookies lowered the lightness and yellowness but increased redness (p<0.05). Texture measurement showed that the addition of PSPP did not affect the hardness of cookies. Results of acceptance test revealed that overall acceptability score was not significantly different between the control and the PSPP added cookies. Therefore, it is suggested that PSPP can be incorporated into cookies up to 20% without affecting the cookie quality. Total polyphenol content and antioxidant activity were assessed to examine the functionality of cookies. In addition, substitution of wheat flour with PSPP yielded cookies with higher polyphenol content and antioxidative activity (p<0.05). The peroxide value (POV) and acid value increased during storage at $60^{\circ}C$ for 80 days. The POV was significantly lower in cookies containing PSPP than the control cookies, suggesting that the addition of PSPP deterred the lipid oxidation (p<0.05).

In order to enhance overall quality of the Backsulki, a sweet potato flour (SPF) which is rich in sugar and dietary fiber was added into the rice flour at 0, 5, 15, and 25% (w/w, db) ratios. Quality changes of the products were evaluated by storing at 5, 15, and 25$^{\circ}C$ for 4 days. Water binding capacity, swelling power, and solubility of the products increased as the SPF increased. Hunter colorimetric a- and b-value increased while L value of the products decreased as the SPF increased. Retarded retrogradation of the flour mixtures containing the SPF was shown from the DSC thermogram as indicated by the decreased $\Delta$H values. Increases in $T_{i}$ and $T_{p}$ values in relation with the starch gelatinization were shown from the DSC thermogram with a temperature margin of 15-20$^{\circ}C$ as the SPF increased. Increases in softness along with decreases in springiness and chewiness of the products were shown as the SPF increased. It was not so much the storage temperature as the added SPF affected the final texture of the products. Retarded growth of the total microbes of the products was noted by the added SPF during storage at 25$^{\circ}C$ for 3 days. Regarding the above and additional sensory preference scores of the products, a 15%(w/w) level of the SPF was suggested as optimum for the best Backsulki with improved qualities.

Kojis were prepared from the different starch raw materials such as glutinous rice, barley rice, wheat flour and sweet potato, and were tested in an effort to reduce production cost and to improve quality of Kochuzang(red pepper paste). During the starting period of Koji preparation, there were less significant changes in pH; however, pH decreased somehow in the case of sweet potato, whereas it increased for the other Kojis. In general, the highest acidity was obtained after 72 hours of Koji preparation. Total nitrogen, soluble nitrogen and amino-nitrogen content increased in order of wheat flour, barley rice, and glutinous rice; Kojis they were markedly produced between 72 and 96 hours of Koji preparation. The maximum amount of reducing sugar was observed between 48 and 72 hours of Koji preparation during this period the reducing sugar content varied widely depending on starch source. Sweet potato Koji produced the highest level of ethyl alcohol content after 72 hours of Koji preparation; for the other Koji the same trends were observed after 24 hours. The starch liquefying activities have reached the highest level after 96 hours and for glutinous rice and barley rice; however, they kept on increasing until 120 hours for wheat flour and sweet potato. Koji Starch liquefying and saccharogenic amylase activities tended to increase in order of sweet potato, glutinous rice, barley rice and wheat flour. Kojis Various protease activities were measu-red during the Koji preparation, and they increased in order of alkali, neutral and acidic protease.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the producing conditions of organic acid and saccarifing amylase in Koji culture by Asp. usamii shirousamii $U_2$. The results were as follows. 1. When the strain $U_2$ was incubated at $30^{\circ}C$, for 3 days in wheat flour and wheat bran media, the organic acid production was maximum. In the case of incubation at $35^{\circ}C$, for 3 days in wheat flour medium and at $35^{\circ}C$, for 2 days in wheat bran medium the activity of saccharifing amylase was highest. 2. When water was added 60% to wheat flour and 50% to wheat bran in the case of 3 days incubation, the organic acid production was superior. Both in wheat flour and wheat bran media, the saccharifing amylase production was most highly, when water was added 90-100%. 3. Comparatively speaking, the organic acid production was better in wheat flour medium than wheat bran medium, but the activity of saccharifing amylase was higher in wheat bran medium. 4. When the sweet potato starch waste and the wheat flour were mixed with same amount, the organic acid and saccharifing amylase production were higher than in simple wheat flour medium. 5. In the medium of sweet potato starch waste the organic acid and saccharifing amylase production were low extremely. 6. In the case of incubation at $30^{\circ}C$, 3 days in wheat flour medium admixed with 60% water, the amount of citric acid in the organic acid formed was about 91%.

The effect of oxidants, gluten and gums on breadmaking quality of wheat-purple sweet potato(Ipomoea batatas) composite flour were studied. Alveograph tests of doughs showed that all additives increased the P, L and W values. Of these additives, L-Ascorbic acid, gluten, carboxy methyl cellulose have a significant effect on alveogram indexes. SEM showed that the dough added with additives changed some what in appearance when compared with the control. When oxidants was added, the doughs discontinuous gluten film were observed. No significant differences ,were evident in bread crumb color among the additives. And textural characteristics of bread crumb were influened by adding additives. Breads containing additives showed an increase in max weight, strength and hardness and a decrease in springness and cohesiveness. Average enthalpy values for all bread crumb after 7days increased with storage time. However, addition of additives decrease the rate of staling slightly more than that of the control. Addition of L-Ascorbic acid, L-Cystine, carboxy methyl cellulose and hydroxy propyl methyl cellulose increased the loaf volume significantly, and with except potassium bromate bread scores were acceptable.

Digestibilities of flour of white wheat, barley, potato, sweet potato, are $5{\sim}11$ percent (3hrs.) in unripe starch state and in gelatinization, digestibilities are up to $20{\sim}30$ percent (3hrs.). And in two states, digestibilities of flour of potato and sweet potato are lower than barley and white wheat flour. If it is not gelatinization, digestibilities of biscuit and cracker are much lower than popped cake (29%). In gelatinization, digestibilities of biscuit and cracker $(19{\sim}29%,\;3hrs.)$ are similar to gelatinized flour of materials. Digestibilities of bread and castern is $21{\sim}32$ percent, it is similar to gelatinized flour of materials. And bread is higher than castera. Digestibility of on the marketing weaning food (II) (15%, 3hrs.) is much lower than food (I) (24.1%, 3hrs.) When the date of manufacturing passed $1{\sim}2$ months, digestibility of some cookies have a tendency to low. When mothers choice the infant weaning food, they consider metritional value (42%) and digestibility (27%). Also when they make weaning food at home, they generally use flour of rice (41%) and white wheat (23%). And they think, the rate of digestion is 49% in the rice flour and white wheat (23%). It was sort of cooked of rice (16%) and weaning food on the marketing(13%), which accepts to good digest. Also it was sort of biscuits (44%) which comparatively high choice snack food.

In order to study ecology of microorganisms during Takju brewing, microflora changes were examined fromm the start to the sixth day of Takju fermentation in 24 hours intervals. Takju made from rice, flour and dried sweet potato in a liter volume open container at the laboratory and a sanple of Takju brewing factory were studied for their microflora and their changes during fermentationl together with a sample of Kokja. Results obtained were as follows ; 1. The followings were the identified microorganisms in Kokja. The molds ; Absidia spinosa, Aspergillus parasiticus. The yeasts ; Candida melinii, Candida Solani, Hansenula anomala. The bacteria ; Luctobacillus casei, Leuconostoc mesenteroides, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus pumilus. 2. Torulopsis inconspicua, Lactobacillus casei, Leuconotoc mesenteroides, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus pumilus were isolated from main mash of laboratory-made Takju samples. The yeast, Torupsis inconspicua which was not present in Kokja and, probably of a contaminant yeast, dominated the yeast flora of Takju mash of rice, flour and sweet potato of labotatory brewing. The laboratory brewing lost also always showed large population of lactic acid bacteria flora. 3. None of the wild yeasts which were present in Kokja appeared in Takju mashes. The Kokja appears to be of no use as the yeast source for Takju fermentation. Also the Kokja appears to be of not so effective amylolytic and proteolytic enzyme sources considering the microflora characteristics. Probably the major role of Kokja in Takju fermentation may be to contribute in taste formation. 4. Inoculation of Sacharomyces cerevisiae into the mash to the level of $10^7$ ml at the start of fermentation greatly changed the ecological aspects eliminating conditions of rather slow rising of natural contaminant yeast populaiton and fermentation which might give rise to prosperity of lactic acid and Bacillus bacteria that would be avoidable. 5. Examination of microflora of the large factory scale Takju fermentation showed the quite similar pattern of microflora and their changes to that of the cultured yeast-inoculated laboratory batch Takju fermentation. The cultured yeast dominated as the only predominant microflora, and the lactic acid bacteria flora were completely suppressed and aerobic bacteria, greatly. Probably this may be the regular microflora pattern of normal Takju fermentation. The role of lactic acid bacteria and aerobic bacteria in Takju fermentation may not be clear yet from this experiment alone.

The changes in the mechanical model parameters during cooking and subsequent storage, were related to the sensory quality of the noodles. The sensory hardness and chewiness were tested by Milestone method and the overall preference was evaluated by hedonic scale test. Hardness was affected primarily by increasing cooking time and in lesser degree by storage time after cooking. Chewiness was diminished by increasing cooking time and subsequent storage. The preference of wheat flour noodle was not significantly affected by cooking time, while that of wheat·sweet potato starch noodle decreased significantly by excess cooking time. Instantaneous elasticity represented the softness of noodle. The elastic components and viscosity components had significant relationship with the sensory quality of wheat noodle. On the other hand the retardation time was important for the sensory quality of wheat-sweet potato starch noodle.
