The study was carried out to investigate the quality of the wet noodle added with the powders of nopal and nopalitos from Opuntia ficus-indica. The wet noodles were prepared to the ratio of 3, 6 and 9% (w/w) of the nopal and the nopalitos based on a flour weight. The initial pasting temperature and final viscosity in an amylograph decreased as the increase of the nopal and the nopalitos powders. A cooked weight and volume decreased with the increase of the nopal and the nopalitos powders, while a cooking loss increased. From the sensory evaluation, the wet noodles included 3% nopalitos and 6% nopal powders were similarly evaluated as the noodle used whole wheat flour. Bacterial counts of wet noodle with the nopal and the nopalitos powders were always lower than those of the control. Bacterial counts of wet noodle slowly increased as the increase of the amount of nopal and the nopalitos powders during storage at $4^{\circ}C\;and\;20^{\circ}C$. The methanol extracts from the nopal showed antimicrobial activities against Escherichia coli, Escherichia coli O157 : H7, Salmonella typhimurium, and Bacillus subtilis, while the extracts from the nopalitos showed antimicrobial activity only against Escherichia coli.

The genomes of Arabidopsis and rice have been fully sequenced. Genomic sequencing provides global information about genome structure and organization. A comprehensive research account of our recent studies conducted on genome painting, comparative genomics and genome fusion is provided in order to project the prospects of plant cytogenetic research in post-genomics era. Genome analysis by GISH using genome painting is demonstrated as an excellent means suitable for visualization of a whole genome, since total genomic DNA representing the overall molecular composition of the genome is used as a probe. FISH on extended DNA fibers has been developed for high-resolution FISH and has contributed to determining the copy number and order of genes. We have also mapped a number of genes involving starch synthesis on wheat chromosomes by FISH and compared the position of these genes on linkage map of rice. Macro synteny between wheat and rice can be observed by comparing the location of these genes in spite of the fact that the size of DNA per chromosome differs by 20 fold in two. Moreover, to approach our goal towards making bread and udon noodles from rice flour in future by incorporating bread making and the noodle qualifies in rice, we have been successful in introducing large genomic DNA fragments containing agronomically important genes of wheat into a rice by successive introduction of large insert BAC clones, there by expanding genetic variability in rice. We call this method genome fusion.

This study investigated the quality of noodles added with different amounts of freeze-dried fish scale collagen mixture powder (FDCMP). Freeze-dried fish scale collagen mixture was prepared by mixing ingredients (fish scale collagen : herb extracts : dextrin : distilled water=1:0.75:0.25:2), which were freeze-dried. Noodles were prepared by adding 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0% (w/w) FDCMP based on flour weight. Cooked noodle weight and volume decreased with increasing amount of FDCMP, whereas turbidity of soups significantly increased. The water-binding capacity of FDCMP was higher than that of flour. Uncooked and cooked noodles showed reduced L values as well as increased a and b values increasing amount of FDCMP in the flour composite. Hardness and chewiness of cooked noodles significantly decreased with increased FDCMP content. Adhesiveness, cohesiveness, and gumminess increased with increased FDCMP content. Springiness and resilience were not significantly different between the control and FDCMP group. Finally, sensory evaluation results indicated that texture, mouthfeel, and overall preference of noodles containing 0.5% FDCMP were higher compared to those of the other samples. Based on cooking properties and sensory evaluation, freeze-dried fish scale collagen mixture powder up to 0.5% could be substituted for wheat flour to improve noodle quality.

To investigate nutritional and biochemical values of buckwheat, amino acids and minerals in buckwheat harvested from Kangweon-do were analysed. Mixed flour between buckwheat and wheat were made to be used for buckwheat noodle and were also analysed minerals and major nutrients in composite flours. When three different levels of flour mix were compared, major nutrients were about same among those mixes but minerals were higher by adding more buckwheat flour, especially by adding more imported buckwheat flour. From this mixed flour, 9 minerals and 16 amino acids including 9 essential amino acids were analysed. Contents of selenium, sodium and magnessium were very high in buckwheat flour, Therefore, nutritional value of domestic buckwheat was highly evaluated. BAP method was used to determine the change of gelatinization in the noodles prepared by extruder at 8$0^{\circ}C$, and in the noodles during freeze drying and refrigeration. 70% of gelatinization was done during noolding process and retrogradation was severe during refrigeration.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of noodles containing roasted Liriopis tuber. Roasted Liriopis tuber powder (LTP) was added in different amounts based on wheat flour (1%, 3%, 5%, 7% and 9%). Cooked noodles containing LTP exhibited significantly lower values for weight, volume, and water absorption; in contrast, higher values were exhibited for turbidity. The Hunter L value (for lightness) of uncooked and cooked noodles decreased but the a value (for redness) and b value (for yellowness) increased with the addition of Liriopis tuber. Textural properties (springiness, cohesiveness, chewiness, and brittleness) measured with a texture analyzer significantly decreased with the addition of Liriopis tuber. From the sensory evaluation results, noodle containing 7% Liriopis tuber was considered the best. To improve the quality of noodle containing 7% LTP, activated gluten was added at different percentages of flour (1%, 2%, 3%, 4% and 5%). Cooked noodles containing activated gluten exhibited significantly higher values for weight, volume, and water absorption; in contrast, lower values for turbidity were exhibited. In addition, the textural properties significantly increased with the addition of activated gluten. From the sensory evaluation results, noodle containing 3% activated gluten was considered the best. In conclusion, noodle with 7% LTP and 3% activated gluten exhibited the most desirable qualities.

This study investigated the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of wet noodles as well as their cooking properties following the addition of peanut sprout extract (PSE) and powder (PSP), which are known to contain a significant level of resveratrol. Wet noodles were prepared with 0, 2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10% PSE and PSP. Quality characteristics such as increasing volume of noodle, water ratio, turbidity of cooking water and color, texture, and sensory evaluation were then assessed. Additionally, the total resveratrol content in the cooked noodles was analyzed by HPLC and DPPH free radical scavenging capacity. As the amount of PSE and PSP increased, the L value of wet and cooked noodles significantly decreased, whereas the a and b values increased (p<0.001). The L value of cooked noodles was significantly lower compared to wet noodles (p<0.001) whereas the a and b values were higher. For the cutting intensity properties of the cooked noodles, hardness was reduced with increasing amounts of PSE (p<0.001), and was significantly increased in proportion to the amount of PSP (p<0.05). Meanwhile, springiness was not significantly different in all groups. Total resveratrol content and free radical scavenging activity significantly increased in proportion to the amounts of PSE and PSP (p<0.001), especially in noodles containing 5%, 7.5% and 10% PSE and PSP. Finally, sensory evaluation of PSE noodle revealed that color, flavour, taste were significantly decreased (p<0.05). But there was no difference in overall acceptance among cooked noodles with 2.5% to 5% PSE comparison to the control. Sensory characteristics in the PSP noodle showed similar results. In conclusion, these findings suggest that peanut sprout extract and powder could be potentially used as functional food ingredients. In addition, up to 5% PSE and PSP can be substituted for wheat flour.

This study was to investigate the quality characteristics of noodles prepared with germinated brown rice and rice bran, and to determine the changes in GABA content and antioxidant activity of the noodles. These noodles were evaluated for cooking properties (cooking loss, swelling index, water holding capacity), total polyphenols, antioxidant activities (radical scavenging of ABTS and DPPH), and GABA contents. The addition of germinated rice bran in the range of 5, 10, and 15% showed a significant influence on cooking loss, although no effect on swelling index was observed. The raw and cooked noodles containing germinated brown rice and rice bran contained more GABA contents (2751.6~4176.7 and 5522.0~9617.8 nmol/20 g of fresh noodle, respectively) than those of non-germinated brown rice and rice bran. Noodles made with germinated brown rice and rice bran had similar total polyphenolics contents and antioxidant activities compared to noodles made with non-germinated brown rice and rice bran. Overall, the germinated brown rice could be used as a good ingredient to increase the nutritional value and antioxidant properties of wheat flour noodle without affecting the cooking properties.

The effects of mushroom powder fer noodle pasty and noodle were investigated The peak viscosity of control was higher than that of added mushroom powder. The water absorption in farinograph slightly increased with the addition of mushroom powder. Decrease of lightness(L) and increase of redness(a) and yellowness(b) were shown with the increase of mushroom powder in wheat flour mushroom powder composite as well as noodles paste and wet noodles. The weight and volume of cooked noodles were decreased, but the turbidity of soup were not different with the addition of mushroom powder. The cohesiveness, springiness and chewiness of cooked noodles were increased with the addition of mushroom powder. The results of sensory evaluation cooked noodles showed that the wet noodles with high quality could be produced by 3∼5% addition of Pholiota adiposa powder.

This study investigated the quality of noodles containing different amounts of Capsosiphon fulvescens powder. Noodles were prepared with C. fulvescens powder at ratios of 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4% based on flour weight. Cooking quality, mechanical texture properties, and viscosity were measured, and a sensory evaluation was performed with the prepared noodles. Gelatinization points of the composite C. fulvescens powder-wheat flours increased. As measured via amylography, viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$, viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$ after 15 minutes, and maximum viscosity values of samples decreased as C. fulvescens powder content increased. As increasing amounts of C. fulvescens powder were added, L, a and b values decreased, whereas color values, weight, and volume of cooked noodles increased, as did turbidity of the soup. In the texture meter test, hardness, cohesiveness, and springiness increased according to increasing concentrations of C. fulvescens powder. However, adhesiveness of noodles decreased by addition of C. fulvescens powder. Sensory evaluation showed that high quality cooked noodles could be produced by 3% inclusion of C. fulvescens powder.
