The physicochemical properties and characteristics of sweet potato starches which were isolated from the six varieties were investigated. The shapes of starch granules which observed through photomicroscope and scanning electron microscope lucre round and polygonal, but those of the Shinmi were most polygonal, and the average diameters were in the range of $10.4{\sim}14.2$ microns. The amylose contents were between 25% and 28%, and blue values and alkali numbers were in the range of $0.29{\sim}0.36$, $7.0{\sim}12$, respectively. The swelling power and solubility patterns of the starches were negligible until $50^{\circ}C$, thereafter it increased rapidly and the Eunmi showed highest water binding capacity of 211.6%. Amylogram pattern of 6% starch solutions were similar to no peak viscosity, but maximum viscosity varied widely with varieties. A significant positive correlation was observed between amylose content and average gelatinization temperature. Taste and texture of the steam cooked sweet potatoes were negatively and positively correlated with moisture and amylose contents, respectively, while those of the microwave cooked sweet potatoes were only positively correlated with amylose contents.

The characteristics of Tongjinbyeo(Japonica) and Samgangbyeo($J{\times}Indica$) rice starches including physicochemical properties, differential scanning calorimetry and enzymatic digestion of lintnerized starches were investigated. Degree of hydrolysis of Tongjinbyeo starch with 2.2N HCI for 48 hr was higher than that of Samgangbyeo starch. Apparent first order reaction of starches was slow reaction for first period, and fast reaction second period on the datum point of acid treatment 24 hr. Absorbance at ${\lambda}_{max}$ and 680 nm, and ${\lambda}_{max}$ of iodine stained starch and amylose content decreased upon acid treatment. But water binding capacity, swelling power and solubility considerably increased as hydrolysis progressed. Relative crystallinity of two starches increased with acid treatment, and that of Tongjinbyeo starch was higher than that of Samgangbyeo starch. Differential scanning colorimetry(DSC) data continuously decreased for lintnerization periods, and those of Tongjinbyeo starch have higher than those of Samgangbyeo starch. The onset temperature of starch by DSC continuously decreased by treatment, but conclusion temperature increased until 24 hr and then decreased. The enthalpy for gelatinization decreased for both starches. Degree of hydrolysis of lintnerized Tongjinbyeo starch with glucoamylase was slightly higher than that of Samgangbyeo starch.

We investigated the physicochemical properties of brown rice by cultivar to select cultivar suitable for making brown rice porridge. The moisture content of the brown rice ranged from 8.79~11.78% with the highest varieties being 'Geonyangmi'. The crude ash and crude lipid content ranged from 1.02~1.65% and 1.65~3.26%, while the rest were similar except for 'Daebo'. Crude protein also had the lowest 'Daebo' and generally glutinous rice showed higher crude protein content than common rice. The hardness showed that 'Seolgaeng' and 'Keunnun' were the lowest, and 'Haiami' was the highest. In the RVA analysis, the setback was in the range -80.61~22.44 and was low in the order of 'Wolbaek', 'Baekjinju'', and 'Dongjinchal'. As a result of water binding capacity (WBC) measurement, 'Sindongjin', 'Geonyang' and 'Samkwang', were high in common rice, and 'Dongjinchal' and 'Hwaseonchal' were high in glutinous rice. Generally, solubility and swelling power in common rice was found to be lower than in glutinous rice. As a result, 'Samkwang' is considered suitable for brown rice porridge production because of high WBC, breakdown, and low setback.

Physicochemical properties of waxy maize starch and oxidized waxy maize starch with sodium hypochlorite $(0{\sim}60\;mg\;CL_2/g\;starch,40^{\circ}C,\;pH\;10,\;3.0\;hr)$ were studied. As sodium hypochlorite concentration was increased, the content of crude lipid and crude protein of the oxidized starch were decreased. And crude protein content and whiteness was considered to show negative regression. However, the crude ash content of the oxidized starch increased significantly with oxidation and bore a positive regression to the chlorine content. There was a progressive increase in the carboxyl content with increasing oxidant level. After pasting in hot water and cooling, viscosity of the oxidized starches were drastically lower than that of native starch . As carboxyl contents of the oxidized starch increased, the solubility and swelling power was increased. When waxy maize starch treated with 0, 1.5, 3.0 and 6.0% sodium hypochlorite, temperature of initial gelatinization of oxidized starch was shown to 65, 65, 60 and $50^{\circ}C$, respectively. The oxidized waxy maize starches also form clearer pastes. Water binding capacity of the oxidized starch decreased as the degree of carboxyl group substitution increased. Waxy maize starch has polygonal and some round granules which range from about 3.7 to $20\;{\mu}m$ in diameter. Surface appearance of the waxy maize starch became rough when oxidized with sodium hypochlorite. When homogenate of the oxidized waxy maize starch solution and corn germ oil was stored under room temperature for 24 hours, the emulsion stability was considered to depend on starch concentration and degree of substitution.

This study was carried out to compare the cooking and antioxidant characteristics of cooked rice added at various rate of glutinous rice addition and treated with two cooking methods. Cooked rice added with glutinous rice was cooked by general and high pressure cooking method with and without fermented alcohol. Pasting characteristics of cooked rice were decreased as increasing the amounts of glutinous rice. Water binding capacity and swelling power were significant decreased with the amounts of glutinous rice increasing, however water solubility indices were significant increased. Palatability characteristics of cooked rice added with glutinous rice showed similar results to cooked rice without glutinous rice. Total polyphenol contents of cooked rice added with glutinous rice and fermented alcohol were significantly distinct, but there was no significant difference. Total flavonoid contents were increased as increasing the amounts of glutinous rice. Total flavonoid contents by general cooking method of cooked rice added with 20% glutinous rice and fermented alcohol were $23.20{\pm}0.61{\mu}g\;CE/g$. DPPH radical scavenging activities added with and without glutinous rice were 2.97~5.19 and 3.19~5.45 mg TE/100 g, respectively. ABTS radical scavenging activities by high pressure cooking method of cooked rice added with 20% glutinous rice and fermented alcohol were $19.48{\pm}0.63mg\;TE/100g$. In this study, cooking and antioxidant characteristics of cooked rice added with glutinous rice were expected to be used as basic data on manufacturing processed products.

This study examined physicochemical properties of two waxy rice starches, shinsun and black rice starches. Proximate compositions of both samples were similar. The major minerals in the shinsun rice starches were Ca, Mg, P and Na, whereas those in black rice starches were Ca, P, Fe and Mg. The major particle size of shinsun rice starch was 6.97 micron and that of black rice starch was 6.27 micron. In iodine reaction, maximum absorbance wavelength (λmax) and absorbance at 625nm of black rice starch were higher than those of shinsun rice starch. Intrinsic viscosity of black rice starch (183mL/g) was higher than that of shinsun rice starch (178 mL/g). Water binding capacity was similar in both samples. Swelling power and solubility of black rice starch were lower than those of shinsun rice starch. X-ray diffraction patterns of all samples showed traditional A type of cereals as shown peaks at 15.2 (15.0), 17.2 (17.15), 18.05 (17.95), 23.25 (23.15)$^{\circ}$. The common shape of SEM was observed in both waxy rice starches.

The objective of this research was to investigate physicochemical properties of waxy sorghum flours by different milling methods (pin mill and ultra fine mill). Four different sorghum flours were used for the experiments ; PWS (pin milled whole sorghum flour), PS (pin milled sorghum flour without bran), UFWS (ultra fine milled whole sorghum flour), UFS (ultra fine milled sorghum flour without bran). The contents of crude ash and total dietary fiber were the highest in PWS. Amylose content of pin milled sorghum flour was higher than that of ultra fine milled flour. The mean particle size of pin milled flours was six times lager than ultra fine milled flours. The L values of UFS and UFWS were higher than those of PS and PWS, whereas a and b values were higher in PWS. The water binding capacity was highest in UFWS, and solubility was higher in PS and UFS. Swelling power of flours was highest in UFS. The damaged starch content was higher in PS and UFS, which means damaged starch of sorghum flours significantly affected by polishing than milling method. The pasting properties were higher in the pin milled flours. Initial pasting temperature of pin milled flour was ranging from 70.5 to $73.1^{\circ}C$, which are higher than ultra fine milled flour ($68.6^{\circ}C$). The contents of total polyphenol were higher in PWS and UFWS than those of PS and UFS, there was no difference between the two milling methods. The results of this study indicate that physicochemical properties of sorghum flour were affected by milling methods as well as bran.

In order to know properties in rice starch during storage of rice, rice starch from stored rice(stored at $5^{\circ}C$, R.H. 65% and $30^{\circ}C$, R.H. 85%, for 16 weeks) used in this experiment. Water binding capacity of rice starch increased for 8 weeks, and then it decreased. As the storage period took longer, swelling power and solubility, optical transmittance, blue value, total amylose content and soluble amylose content decreased. For the same periods, changes in rice starch from stored rice$(30^{\circ}C$, R.H. 85%) were made more than those in rice starch at $5^{\circ}C$, R.H. 65%. The granule shape of rice starch, irrespective of storage periods and conditions, didn't make a significant difference. The relative crystallinity of the rice starch by X-ray diffraction didn't distinctly changed till the second week. But, at the fourth week, that by X-ray diffraction significantly decreased, and then slightly decreased. As the storage period took longer, gelatinization temperature, melting temperature and melting enthalpy measured by DSC got higher, but gelatinization enthalpy got lower. For the same storage period, gelatinization temperature, melting temperature, gelatinization enthalpy and melting enthalpy of rice starch stored at $30^{\circ}C$, R.H. 85% made changes more than those of rice starch stored at $5^{\circ}C$, R.H. 65% did.

This study investigated the physicochemical characteristics of wet-milled rice flour treated with pectinase and cellulase in a steeping process. Enzyme treatments were used as follows: pectinase 0.05%, cellulase 0.05%, and mixed enzyme treatments 0.05~0.2%. For particle distribution, rice flour E-treated with mixed enzymes (pectinase 0.05% and cellulase 0.05%) was the finest at 48.3% particle distribution less than $53\;{\mu}m$. Protein contents and damaged starch were reduced by enzyme treatments. Damaged starch was the lowest (12.1%) in rice flour E compared with non-enzyme treatment (18.1%). Amylose content, water binding capacity, solubility, and swelling power all increased upon enzyme treatments, and their effects increased upon mixed enzyme treatment. For gelatinization characteristics of RVA, peak viscosity, final viscosity, breakdown, and total setback viscosity increased in rice flours treated with mixed enzymes. Especially, in steeping method with mixed enzyme treatment, pectinase 0.05% and cellulase 0.05% treatment was suitable for minimizing damaged starch and high fine particle distribution of rice flours compared with single enzyme treatment.

This study evaluated the quality characteristics of dried noodles made of wheat flour supplemented with different concentrations of skate powder. Cooking quality, mechanical texture properties, gelatinization temperature and viscosity were measured, after which sensory evaluation was performed with prepared noodles. Water binding capacity, solubility and swelling power of the composite skate powder and wheat flours were higher than those of pure wheat flour. Gelatinization temperature of the composite skate powder and wheat flours increased, while initial, interim, and maximum-viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$, decreased, with increasing skate powder content. In relation to color values, increasing skate flour content led to decrease in L and b values and increase in a value. For the textural characteristics, the addition of skate powder increased hardness, springiness, chewiness and adhesiveness. Overall, noodles made with 3% skate powder were preferred compared to other samples.
