This study was conducted to investigate the use of sugar alcohols (sorbitol, erythritol, and xylitol) as alternative sweeteners for replacing sucrose in Yukwa (traditional Korean oil-puffed rice snack). The moisture contents of Bandegi (dried Yukwa dough) and Yukwa containing sugar alcohols were higher than that of control (containing only sucrose). The microstructures of control and Bandegi containing sugar alcohols showed uniformly and finely distributed air holes. Expansion ratio and oil absorption of Yukwa containing sorbitol and 30% erythritol were higher than those of control. Appearance and cross section of control and Yukwa containing sorbitol, 30% erythritol, and 30% xylitol showed a good shape. The lightness (L) of control was significantly lower than Yukwa containing sugar alcohols, whereas redness (a) and yellowness (b) were higher than those in Yukwa containing sugar alcohols. Hardness of Yukwa containing sugar alcohols was significantly lower than that of control, and that of Yukwa containing sorbitol was the lowest. Peak number of Yukwa containing sugar alcohols was significantly lower than that of control, and that of Yukwa containing 60% erythritol and 60% xylitol was the lowest among all samples. In the sensory evaluation, color of control was deepest, whereas that of Yukwa containing 60% xylitol was lightest. Volume and air hole uniformity of Yukwa containing 60% erythritol and 60% xylitol were inferior than those of other samples. Sweetness of Yukwa containing sugar alcohols was lower than that of control, whereas oily flavor was stronger. Hardness of Yukwa containing sugar alcohols was lower than that of control, and Yukwa containing xylitol showed the lowest hardness among the samples. Crispness of Yukwa containing sugar alcohols was lower than that of control. There were no significant differences in overall acceptability between control and Yukwa containing 30% sorbitol and 30% erythritol. Overall, sorbitol and erythritol were appropriate as a 30% replacement for sucrose when preparing Yukwa.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of replacing sucrose with sugar alcohols (sorbitol, glycerol and xylitol) on the quality properties of semi-dried jerky. Total 7 treatments of jerkies were prepared as follows: control with sucrose, and treatments with 2.5 and 5.0% of sucrose replaced by each sugar alcohol, respectively. Drying yield, pH, water activity, moisture content, shear force, myofibrillar fragmentation index (MFI), 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) value, sugar content, and sensory evaluation were evaluated. Xylitol slightly decreased the pH when compared to the other sugar alcohols (p>0.05). The water activity of the semi-dried jerky was significantly reduced by treatment with glycerol and xylitol (p<0.05). The moisture content of semi-dried jerky containing various sugar alcohols was significantly higher than that of the control (p<0.05), while replacing sucrose with glycerol yielded the highest moisture content. The shear force of semi-dried jerky containing sugar alcohols was not significantly different for the sorbitol and glycerol treatments, but that replacing sucrose with 5.0% xylitol demonstrated the lowest shear force (p<0.05). The TBARS values of semi-dried jerkies with sugar alcohols were lower than the control (p<0.05). The sugar content of the semi-dried jerkies containing sorbitol and glycerol were lower than the control and xylitol treatment (p<0.05). In comparison with the control, the 5.0% xylitol treatment was found to be significantly different in the sensory evaluation (p<0.05). In conclusion, semi-dried jerky made by replacement with sugar alcohols improved the quality characteristics, while xylitol has applicability in manufacturing meat products.

자일로스와 자일리톨을 첨가하여 제조한 김치 발효시 pH, 적정산도 등의 이화학적 특성과 젖산 및 유기산의 함량을 측정하였으며, 김치에서 분리된 미생물의 당 이용도와 자일로스와 자일리톨를 첨가한 배지에서의 젖산균수를 측정하였다. 김치 미생물의 당 이용도를 보면 김치에서 분리한 젖산균 6종류 중 자일로스의 경우는 5균주가, 자일리톨의 경우에는 6균주 모두를 이용하지 못하는 것으로 볼 때 발효성 당이 아닌 자일로스와 당알코올인 자일리톨의 첨가가 김치의 숙성을 억제시켜 저장성을 향상시킬 수 있었다. 자일로스와 자일리톨을 첨가하여 제조한 김치의 pH는 시료간의 큰 차이는 없었으나, 자일리톨 첨가구의 경우가 다른 시료보다 높게 나타났으며, 적정산도의 경우는 자일로스와 자일리톨 첨가구의 경우가 다른 실험구보다 낮게 나타난 것으로 보아 산 생성속도를 억제시켜 가식기간을 연장시킬 수 있었다. 유기산의 측정 결과를 보면 자일로스와 자일리톨을 첨가한 실험구의 경우 설탕을 첨가한 실험구보다 젖산과 다른 유기산의 생성이 느리게 나타나는 것을 볼 수 있었으며, 당류를 첨가하지 않은 대조구와는 거의 비슷하거나 다소 생성이 저해되었다. 따라서 김치 제조 시 자일로스와 자일리톨을 첨가하면 발효 미생물 등의 성장을 억제하여 김치의 저장기간 동안 숙성을 억제함으로써 유통기간을 연장시켜 김치의 가식기간을 연장시킬 수 있다.

본 연구는 다양한 탄수화물 아래에서 자일리톨 감성균주와 내성균주의 치아우식과 관련된 특성을 비교해보고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 1% 자일리톨이 첨가된 TYE 배지에서 S. mutans를 30일간 배양하여 자일리톨 내성균주를 형성하였으며, 이후 0.5% 포도당이 포함된 배지에 자당, 과당, 엿당을 첨가하여 성장, 산생성, 세포외부 다당류 합성정도를 평가하였다. 자일리톨 내성균주는 자일리톨 감성균주에 비해 과당을 제외한 모든 탄수화물 상에서 최종 성장이 유의하게 낮았으며(p<0.05), 산생성에는 유의한 차이가 없었다(p>0.05). 자일리톨 내성균주의 세포외부 다당류 합성은 과당을 제외한 모든 탄수화물 상에서 대체로 자일리톨 감성균주에 비해 낮았으며, 특히 엿당 상에서 뚜렷하게 낮았다. 이상의 결과들을 종합해 보았을 때, 자일리톨 감성균주와 내성균주의 독력인자 발현 정도는 탄수화물의 종류에 따라 차이를 보이기는 하나, 자일리톨 내성균주의 독력이 자일리톨 감성균주에 비해 대체로 낮으므로, 자일리톨의 장기적인 섭취에 의해 형성된 구강 내 자일리톨 내성균주는 자일리톨 감성균주에 비해 치아우식예방에 더 유리할 것으로 생각된다.

On the basis of high osmotic tolerance and xylitol production, a novel yeast strain was screened from soils of rice farming. The isolated strain HY200 was systematically characterized by using general approaches of Biolog Microlog$^{TM}$ and 18S rRNA sequence analyses, and consequently was designated as Candida tropicalis HY200. Under formulated culture conditions, relatively high xylitol yield ($77\%$) and productivity (2.57 g/l$\codt$h) were obtained, in practice, when 200 g/l of xylose was supplemented. In the utilization of nitrogen, inorganic compounds could not serve as nitrogen sources. As a promising phenotype, HY200 steadily flocculated during and/or after growing in the formulated medium. The extent of flocculation was partly affected by nitrogen sources. However, regardless of the kinds of carbon source fed, the flocculent cells were always observed at the end of the exponential growth phase. These observations strongly suggest that the strain HY200 could effectively be used as a potential candidate for the production of xylitol from xylose, especially in repeated batch mode, because of its flocculation ability and tolerance to high substrate concentrations.

The purpose of this study was to investigate replacing possibility of sucrose by sugar alcohols and to establish the optimum formula for the development of sugar cookies. The characteristics of sugar cookies prepared with xylitol, maltitol, lactitol, isomalt substituted for 35, 50, 75, 100% of sucrose were examined through physical measurement and sensory evaluation. The spread ratio of cookies containing sugar alcohols except xylitol was superior to that of control cookies(sucrose 100%) and the use of lactitol increased the spread ratio of cookies. The specific gravity of cookies containing sugar alcohols except xylitol was lower than that of control cookies. Therefore spread ratio was in inverse proportion to specific gravity. As the proportion of sugar alcohols increased in cookie formula, surface color of cookies was getting lighter than that of control cookies. Especially cookies containing xylitol, maltitol was getting lighter as the levels of replacement increased. Overall quality of cookies with sugar alcohols containing sensory analysis was superior to that of control cookies.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes of hardness and microstructure of Dongchimi cooked with various sources of sugar(xylitol, xylose, sugar, pear juice). It was fermented at $10^{\circ}C$ for 60 days. The changes of pH in Dongchimi used different kinds of sugar decreased in all samples during the fermentation period, and then showed a slow decrease after 12 days of fermentation. The total acidity of Dongchimi using xylitol arrived slowly at the best tasting condition($0.3\sim0.4$ point) compared with other conditions. The changes of salt content were showed high as compared with other test conditions in 0 day, the day of fermentation. At the early stage of fermentation, the changes of turbidity of Dongchimi using sugar, pear juice were showed high as compared with those of Dongchimi using xylitol, xylose for $5\sim15$ days of fermentation. The maximum cutting force of Chinese radish Dongchimi showed the highest value among al at the 25 th day of ripening and then decreased gradually. The maximum cutting force of Dongchimi using sugar showed the lowest. The calcium and magnesium contents of Dongchimi juice and Chinese radish Dongchimi juice using xylitol were observed high at the early stage of fermentation and showed the highest value during the fermentation period. The microstructure showed disintegration appearance of middle lamella and cell wall during the fermentation period.
