This study evaluated the quality characteristics of dried noodles prepared with strawberry powder in order to determine the most preferred noodle recipe for children's school meals. The proximate composition of strawberry powder used was as follows: moisture, 3.39%; crude protein, 1.53%; crude lipid, 0.97%; crude ash, 0.82%; and carbohydrates, 93.29%. When viscosity of the composite strawberry powder-wheat flours was measured by amylograph. Gelatinization point, maximum viscosity, viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$ and viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$ after 15 min decreased as the level of strawberry powder increased. As the level of strawberry powder increased, both L and b color values decreased, whereas a value increased. Weight, water absorption and volume of cooked noodles decreased, whereas turbidity of soup increased. For textural properties, addition of strawberry powder to cooked noodles reduced hardness, chewiness and brittleness. Overall preference according to the results of the sensory evaluation, noodles added with 6% strawberry powder were the most preferred. According to the results, the addition of strawberry powder can positively affect the overall sensory evaluation of dried noodles, and 6% is the optimal level for addition.

The acid modification of waxy rice starch was conducted to improve the yugwa production process. The intrinsic viscosity, paste viscosity, and differential scanning calorimetry characteristics of acid modified starch were measured, and bandaegi and yugwa prepared from acid modified starch were evaluated. The intrinsic viscosities of acid thinned starches were 1.48, 1.27, 1.15, and 0.91 mL/g after reaction times of 1, 2, 3, and 4 hr, respectively. The gelatinization enthalpy was reduced from 16.3 J/g in native starch to 15.8, 15.3, 14.7, and 14.5 J/g in acid thinned starches as the time of acid thinning increased. The peak viscosity and final viscosity decreased with increasing the time of acid thinning, but the pasting temperature was slightly increased in acid thinned starches. The hardness of bandaegi from acid thinned starches under high pressure greatly decreased relative to the control, typical yugwa. Yugwa from acid thinned starch under high pressure maintained a homogeneous structure containing tiny and uniform cells similar to that of native waxy rice starch used for typical yugwa. Acid thinning under high pressure appears to be a good alternative to the existing steeping process for better yugwa quality.

Sulgidduk samples made with additions of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5% Ulmus cortex powder, and a control, were examined for quality characteristics such as moisture content, color, gelatinization properties, textural characteristics, and consumer acceptance, in order to determine the optimal ratio of Ulmus cortex powder in the formulation. The moisture contents among the samples were not significantly different, ranging from 40.57 to 42.37%, and increased as the Ulmus cortex powder content increased. For the color values, lightness decreased and yellowness and redness increased with increasing Ulmus cortex powder content. With regard to the gelatinization properties, peak viscosity (P), trough viscosity (T), final viscosity (F), breakdown, and consistency increased with increasing amounts of Ulmus cortex powder. Pasting temperature, time to peak viscosity, and setback presented decreasing tendencies with the additions of Ulmus cortex powder. For the textural characteristics, increasing Ulmus cortex powder content presented decreases in hardness, springiness, and chewiness however, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, and gumminess were not significantly different among samples. In the consumer acceptance test, the scores of all evaluated characteristics decreased as the ratio of Ulmus cortex powder increased. However, the intensity ratings for the 1 and 2% Ulmus cortex powder samples showed the opposite effect, obtaining fairly good scores. In conclusion, the results indicate that adding $1{\sim}2%$ Ulmus cortex powder to Sulgidduk is optimal, providing good physiological properties and reasonably high consumer acceptability.

Alkali-treated red algae, Gracilaria sp. was irradiated with various doses of cobalt-60 gamma-rays and the yeild and properties of agar extracted from the seaweed were examined and compared with the quality of commercial agar powder after irradiation. Extraction yield of agar from irradiated seaweed was proportionally increased as the radiation dose was raised up to 2 Mrad whereas it tended to decrease slightly thereafter. Gelation ability, gelation point, gel hardness and specific viscosity of the agar were increased up to 1 Mrad and decreased at higher dose levels while its melting point, total nitrogen, crude ash and total sulfur decreased up to 1 Mrad level and remained unchanged thereafter. Irradiation of commercial agar powder caused remarkable decreases in the gelation ability, specific viscosity and gel hardness and slight decreases in the gelation point and melting point. The pattern of alterations in the properties of agar samples differed whether the polysaccharide was irradiated in free state or bound state in seaweed.

In this study, we investigated the effects of reducing fat levels from 30% to 25, 20, and 15% by substituting pork fat with water and pumpkin fiber (2%) on the quality of frankfurters compared with control. Decreasing the fat concentration from 30% to 15% significantly increased moisture content, redness of meat batter and frankfurter, cooking loss, and water exudation, and decreased fat content, energy value, pH, and lightness of meat batter and frankfurter, hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, and apparent viscosity. The addition of 2% pumpkin fiber was significantly increased moisture content, yellowness of meat batter and frankfurter, hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, and apparent viscosity, whereas reduced cooking loss and emulsion stability. The treatment of reduced-fat frankfurters formulated with 20 and 25% fat levels and with pumpkin fiber had sensory properties similar to the high-fat control frankfurters. The results demonstrate that when the reduced-fat frankfurter with 2% added pumpkin fiber and water replaces fat levels can be readily made with high quality and acceptable sensory properties.

To study the effect of amylose on the mechanism of gel formation, swelling power, water solubility, the pattern of alkali gelatinization and gel properties were investigated. The swelling power of waxy maize starch (Amioca) was the highest and followed by those of PFP > Amaizo > Amylomaize VII. Amioca showed higher iodine affinity of soluble amylose than other maize starches. The apparent viscosity of alkali gelatinization measured by Brookfield viscometer for Amaizo was 70${\times}$10$^3$cp which was higher than Amylomaize VII. The apparent viscosity of PFP was increased to 70${\times}$10$^3$cp and then decreased. As maize starches were autoclaved at 121$^{\circ}C$ with starch: water ratio (1 : 9) and autoclaving-cooling cycle were up to 4 times, gel properties were measured by rheometer. Amaizo showed the highest value for hardness, adhesiveness, springiness, and cohesiveness, and hardness of gel after two cycles of autoclaving-cooling was the highest. Gel properties seemed to be affected by the chain length of amylose rather than the content of amylose.

Beef fat was replaced with cold press pumpkin seed oil (PSO; 0%, 5%, 15%, and 20%) in the production of bologna-type sausages. A value of pH, water-holding capacity (WHC), jelly-fat separation, emulsion stability and viscosity values were determined in meat batters. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), color, and textural characteristics (TPA, shear test, penetration test) were determined in end-product at 1, 7, 14, 21, and 28 days of storage at 4℃. The pH values were varied between 6.06 and 6.08. With the increase in the level of PSO in meat batters, there was a significant increase in WHC, jelly-fat separation and viscosity values (p<0.05) while a significant decrease in emulsion stability (p<0.05). TBARS values of sausages were found to be significantly higher than in the control group (p<0.05), and this trend continued during storage. Increasing of PSO level were caused a significant increase in L* and b* values while a decrease in a* value (p<0.05). Hardness, adhesiveness and chewiness values were significantly reduced whereas cohesiveness and resilience values increased (p<0.05). Maximum shear force and work of shear was significantly decreased as the level of PSO increased (p<0.05). Hardness, work of penetration and the resistance during the withdrawal of the probe values (penetration tests) increased significantly with the increase in the level of PSO (p<0.05). These results indicate that PSO has potential to be use as a replacement of animal-based fats in the production of bologna-type sausages.

To compare the quality characteristics, chunggugjang was prepared with Bacillus subtilis NRLSI IV on the different inoculum levels$(10^2,\;10^4,\;10^6,\;and\;10^8 CFU/ml)$ and fermentation times(0, 12, 24, 36, and 48 hours). Although significant change in total nitrogen content was not found, the content of amino type, soluble and ammonia type nitrogen was generally increased according to the increase in fermentation time. Decomposition rate of nitrogen was also increased by fermentation time and nitrogen solubility was the highest value(62-75.9%) at 48 hour fermentation. In results of color changes, it was found that L and a value were decreased but there was no significant changes in b value as fermentation time was increased. In chunggugjang made with long fermentation time, hardness was decreased and relative viscosity of viscous substance was gradually decreased after little increase at initial fermentation time. The effect of inoculum level on hardness and relative viscosity were similar to that of fermentation time, i.e. the decrease of these at high inoculum level. In activity of V-GTP, 36 hour incubation could produce the highest value whereas no effect of inoculum level was found during fermentation except at 48 hour. In chunggugjang made with $10^2CFU/mL$ of Bacillus subtilis NRLSI IV, the content of glucose, sucrose, raffinose and stachyose was dramatically decreased at initial fermentation time and that of phytic acid, oxalic acid, citric acid, tartaric acid and malic acid was also decreased during fermentation, although the increase in acetic acid was found.

In this study, we applied six different norbornene dialkyl esters as a plasticizer to an isoprene rubber (IR) and evaluated replaceability of DEHP which is an endocrine disruptor. IR test sheets were prepared by blending IR, norbornene dialkyl ester, vulcanizing agent, etc. and processing properties of the IR were evaluated by measuring Toque, scorch time, cure time and mooney viscosity. Mechanical properties of IR test sheet including hardness, tensile strength, 100% modulus and elongation were also measured and the physical properties of norbornene dialkyl ester applied as a plasticizer were compared to those using DEHN. Both the maximum and minimum toque for the norbornene dialkyl ester as a plasticizer were similar to those of using DEHP. In addition, the scorch and cure time of the former were slightly longer than those of the latter. The mooney viscosity for the case of DEHN was slightly lower than that of the latter. DEHN was also superior to DEHP in terms of processing. The hardness and thermal properties of all IR test sheets were measured to be similar to each other. The linear alkyl chain of norbornene compounds also exhibited good tensile characteristics.

To study the effect of amylose on the mechanism of gel formation, swelling power, water solubility, the pattern of alkali gelatinization and gel properties were investigated. The swelling power of waxy maize starch(Amioca) was the highest and followed by those of PFP ＞Amaizo ＞ Amylomaize Ⅶ. Amioca showed higher iodine affinity of soluble amylose than other maize starches. The apparent viscosity of alkali gelatinization measured by Brookfield viscometer for Amaizo was $70{\pm}10^3cp$ which was higher than Amylomaize VII. The apparent viscosity of PFP was increased to $70{\pm}10^3cp$ and then decreased. As maize starches were autoclaved at $121^{\circ}C$ with starch : water ratio (1:9) and autoclaving-cooling cycle were up to 4 times, gel properties were measured by rheometer. Amaizo showed the highest value for hardness, adhesiveness, springiness, cohesiveness, and hardness of gel after two times of autoclaving-cooling cycles was the highest. Gel properties was thus affected by the chain length of amylose rather than amylose content.
