Wet noodles were prepared with all purposed flour and whey powder, and effects of added whey powder on dough rheology and noodle quality were examined using texture profile analysis, sensory evaluation and colorimeter. The initial pasting temperature in amylograph and the maximum resistance in extensograph increased with the addition of whey powder, while the water absorption and the dough development time in farinograph and the extensibility in extensograph decreased. The weight and volume of cooked noodles decreased and turbidity of soup increased with the addition of whey powder. Sensory evaluation revealed that the texture, taste and overall acceptabillity of cooked noodle from 5% whey powder were significantly different from the others. Texture profile analysis of cooked noodles showed decrease of hardness, cohesiveness, chewiness and springiness with the increase of whey powder. L and a values of wet noodles decreased with the addition of whey powder and b value increased.

The effects of substituting whey protein concentrate (WPC) powder for rice flour in the preparation of seolgiddeok were determined by objective and subjective tests. Milk whey is drained from milk curd as a by-product of the cheese manufactureing process. Whey protein is known as a good nutritional source and is a functional material for many processed foods. WPC contains more than 80% whey protein. The moisture content decreased gradually during storage and the decrease in moisture was less in the control than in the WPC powder substituted groups. The color lightness (L) decreased significantly as the amount of WPC powder increased, wherease redness (a) and yellowness (b) both increased. Texture analyses revealed that the hardness, chewiness, gumminess and adhesiveness of seolgiddeok tended to increase in proportion to the amount of WPC powder in the formula. Seolgiddeok gelatinization was investigated by amylographing. Initial pasting temperature, peak viscosity, hot pasting viscosity and breakdown were low in seolgiddeok prepared with WPC powder substituted for rice flour. Setback had the lowest value in the control. Sensory evaluations revealed that, seolgiddeok prepared with 3% WPC powder had the highest overall acceptability score. These results indicated that WPC seolgiddeok with 3% WPC powder has the best quality.

The effects of substituting whey protein isolate (WPI) powder for rice flour during the preparation of paeksulgi (Korean rice cake) were evaluated by objective and subjective tests. Milk whey is drained from milk curd as a by-product of the cheese manufacturing process. Whey protein is known as a good nutritional source and a functional material for many processed foods. WPI contains more than 90% whey protein. The moisture content decreased gradually during storage and the decrease was less in control than WPI powder-substituted groups. The color lightness (L) decreased significantly with increasing WPI powder, wherease the redness (a) and yellowness (b) both increased. Texture analyses revealed that the hardness, chewiness, gumminess, adhesiveness and fracturability of paeksulgitended to increase in proportion to the amount of WPI powder added. Evaluation of the gelatinization of paeksulgi by amylographing revealed that the initial pasting temperature, peak viscosity, hot pasting viscosity and breakdown was lower in samples that contained WPI powder. However, the lowest setback value was observed in the control. The results of the sensory evaluation indicated that paeksulgi prepared with 2% WPI powder had the highest overall acceptability. Taken together, these results suggest that WPI paeksulgi containing 2% WPI powder has the best quality.

Whey powder, a by-product of milk industry, was utilized to produce biopolymer film with the combination of film matrix supporting material, sodium caseinate. Biopolymer films were prepared from whey powder-sodium caseinate mixtures at several mixing ratios. The effects of pH, plasticizers and cross-linkers on tensile strength (TS) and elongation (E) of films were investigated. The films could be formed by use of whey powder up to 70%. As the whey powder content was increased, TS of the film decreased while E increased. Films containing more than 70% of whey powder could not be formed due to the stickiness of lactose in whey powder. The optimum pH of the film solution was found to be 10. Among the plasticizers tested, sorbitol was found to be the most effective plasticizer while glycerol was inadequate for the film. Tensile strengths of films containing $30{\sim}40%$ whey powder were higher than 10 MPa with relatively high E, when the films were plasticized with 30% (w/w) and 40% sorbitol. TSs of the relatively weak films containing $50{\sim}60%$ whey powders were improved by the addition of small amount of sodium citrate for 30% sorbitol plasticized films, and by the addition of sodium chloride for 40% sorbitol plasticized films. It was concluded that up to 70% of whey powder could be utilized to produce biopolymer films by adding sorbitol and cross linkers at pH 10.

An accurate assessment of moisture content in feed ingredients is important because moisture influences the nutritional evaluation of feedstuffs. The objective of this study was to evaluate various methods for moisture content determination. In Exp. 1, the weight loss on drying (LOD) of corn, soybean meal (SBM), distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS), whey permeate, whey powder, spray-dried porcine plasma (SDPP), fish meal, and a mixed diet of these 7 ingredients were measured by oven drying at $135^{\circ}C$ for 2 h. Additionally, the samples were dried at $105^{\circ}C$ for 3, 6, 9, 12, or 15 h. The LOD contents of the DDGS, whey permeate, and whey powder measured by drying at $135^{\circ}C$ for 2 h were greater than the values measured by drying at $105^{\circ}C$ for 3 h (p<0.05). All samples except SDPP (p = 0.70) dried at $105^{\circ}C$ for 6, 9, 12, or 15 h caused more LOD compared with the samples dried for at $105^{\circ}C$ for 3 h (p<0.05). The LOD contents of the individual ingredients were additive when dried at $105^{\circ}C$ regardless of drying time. In Exp. 2, moisture contents of corn, SBM, wheat, whey permeate, whey powder, lactose, and 2 sources of DDGS (DDGS1 and DDGS2) were measured by the Karl Fischer method, oven drying at $135^{\circ}C$ for 2 h, and oven drying at $125^{\circ}C$, $115^{\circ}C$, $105^{\circ}C$, or $95^{\circ}C$ for increasing drying time from 1 to 24 h. Drying samples at $135^{\circ}C$ for 2 h resulted in higher moisture content in whey permeate (7.5% vs 3.0%), whey powder (7.7% vs 3.8%), DDGS1 (11.4% vs 7.5%), and DDGS2 (13.1% vs 8.8%) compared with the Karl Fischer method (p<0.05). Whey permeate and whey powder were considerably darkened as the drying time increased. In conclusion, drying samples at $135^{\circ}C$ for 2 h is not appropriate for determining the moisture content in whey permeate, whey powder, or DDGS as well as the mixed diet containing these ingredients. The oven-drying method at $105^{\circ}C$ for 5 to 6 h appears to be appropriate for whey permeate and whey powder, and at $105^{\circ}C$ for 2 to 3 h for DDGS.

Objective: The present study aimed to evaluate the influence of including L-glutamine along with glutamic acid as a supplement in weaned piglets' diets with and without whey powder. Methods: Two assays were carried out. A total of 40 piglets ([Landrace×Large White]×Pietrain) weaned at 24 days of age with an initial body weight of 6.6±0.6 kg were used in the first assay, and the following parameters were evaluated: growth performance, the incidence of diarrhea, morphometry, intestinal integrity, and hepatic glycogen index. The animals were then blocked into four groups according to different diets: diet all-grain feeding (G); diet all-grain feeding with whey powder (GW); and with vs without 1% supplementation of the commercial product containing L-glutamine and glutamic acid (A or NA). Whey powder was added according to the stage of life, corresponding to 17%, 10%, and 5%, respectively, in order to meet the need for lactose. The animals were evaluated at 24 to 42 days and at 24 to 55 days of age. The nutrient digestibility for the second assay was carried out by using 24 animals with an average weight of 11.49±1.6 kg, and the same diets were tested. Results: The supplementation of L-glutamine + glutamic acid or the addition of whey powder in diets for weaned piglets provided (p<0.05) greater feed intake, greater weight gain and improved feed conversion in the initial period (24 to 42 days age). However, in the whole period (24 to 55 days age) only amino acid supplementation affected (p<0.05) growth performance. There was a positive interaction (p<0.05) between the type of diet and L-glutamine + glutamic acid supplementation on villus height, crypt depth and the villus:crypt ratio in the duodenum. In addition, L-glutamine + glutamic acid supplementation reduced (p<0.05) the crypt depth and improved the villus:crypt ratio in the jejunum. The inclusion of whey powder affected (p<0.05) positively the digestibility coefficients analyzed except mineral matter digestibility coeficients. The supplementation of 1% the commercial product composed of L-glutamine and glutamic acid improved (p<0.05) only the digestibility coefficient of crude protein. Conclusion: These results indicate that supplementation of 1% commercial product containing L-glutamine + glutamic acid in diets for piglets from 24 to 55 days of age, dispenses with the use of whey powder when evaluating growth performance. Amino acid supplementation alone or associated with whey powder affects (p<0.05) positively the indicators of the intestinal integrity.

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of dietary supplementation with whey powder (WP, 1g/kg feed) from weaning to slaughter (150 d) on dry-aged loin quality of pigs. Fifty-eight pigs were randomly divided into two dietary treatment groups (seven replications of four pigs per treatments). Basal diet with 0.1% whey powder was supplied to the WP group. Basal diet was used for the control group (CON). Diet whey protein did not appear to influence the moisture or protein contents. However, ash and fat contents were significantly (p<0.05) decreased in the WP group compared to the control group. Drip loss was significantly (p<0.05) lower in the WP group than that of the control group. Increasing redness with decreasing lightness was found in the inner loin of the WP group. Calcium and iron contents in the WP group were significantly higher than those in the control group. Protein degradation was higher in the WP group than that in the control group (p<0.05), whereas shear force was lower in the WP group than that in the control group (p<0.05). In conclusion, the basal diet supplemented with 0.1% whey powder influence negatively the lipid oxidation of meat whereas the texture property and mineral composition of meat from whey powder fed pigs are developed.

Quality characteristics of conventional and whey noodles were investigated by studying the textural properties. cooking properties, and sensory characteristics. The whey noodles were prepared by mixing whey powder with the wheat flour before noodle production, with the mixture ratio ranging between 1 and 7% in volume. The results are summarized as follows : the addition of whey powder noticeably improved the textural characteristics of the cooked noodles, i.e. hardness, gumminess, and chewiness. The best results were obtained using the following percentage of whey in the mixture: the hardness with 1% added, the gumminess and chewiness with 3% added, and the elasticity with a 7% addiction. The tension force also increased with addition of whey powder, The highest tension force was obtained when 3% of the whey was mixed. While the cooking water of the general noodles displayed a light reddish tint, the cooking water of the whey noodles had a yellow-greenish tint. The cooking water of the whey noodles was more turbid than that of the conventional noodles. The whey noodles increased in volume more than the conventional noodles. after cooking. There was no difference in weight increase and water absorption rates between both types of noodles. More favorable results were shown for appearance, color, texture, and sensory acceptability in the whey noodle than in the conventional noodles.

This study examined the quality characteristics of Jeungpyun prepared with different additions of nano-filtered (NF) tofu whey concentrates. The initial pH values of the Jeungpyun batters ranged from 5.64 to 5.78, and decreased to 4.77-4.98 after 4 hours of fermentation at $35^{\circ}C$. The volume and specific volume values of the control Jeungpyun were lower than those of Jeungpyun samples prepared with 1%, 2%, and 3% NF powder. The color of the Jeungpyun became increasingly greenish-yellow as the NF powder level increased. Hardness and brittleness decreased with increasing NF powder content, while cohesiveness and springiness were not significantly different. Sensory evaluations revealed that as the level of NF powder increased, takju smell and sourness increased, but no significant differences were observed for sweetness and moistness between the control and NF powder groups. In terms of overall acceptability, the results revealed that Jeungpyun can be prepared with up to 1% NF powder in place of rice powder and be deemed as acceptable as a control Jeungpyun product.

Lactobacillus helveticus was inoculated to the fermentation liquid containing skin milk powder(SMT) plus soymilk, SMP plus isolated soybean protein(ISP), SMP plus ISP plus whey powder(WP) to increase the nutritional and economic value of commercial soy yogurt. The yogurt fermented with soymilk and SMP showed the lower acid production than of SMP and had significant beany flavor in the product. The yogurt prepared with ISP and SMP showed the higher cell number and lower acid production than that of SMP. Also, the partial substitution of SMP with ISP over 6%(w/w) produced less acceptable product due to gel production. The yogurt prepared by the partial substitution of SMP with ISP, WP and SMP showed the higher cell number and lower acid production than that of SMP and not bring about gel formation unlike the case of ISP. Sensory properties of yogurt substituted SMP with ISP and WP(38:62 mixture) below 4% were not significantly different from that of SMP and the sample containing the mixture over 6% and 0.067% artificial flavor showed lower sensory score due to beany taste than that of SMP. But increase of yogurt flavor up to 0.1% resulted in significantly high score in organoleptic acceptability. The separation of water occured in yogurt prepared by the combined mixture of ISP, WP and SMP, and this problem could be resolved by addition of Na-alginate and PGA at the concentration of 0.1%(w/w).
