Smart Dining Table is an ongoing project in our Interaction Design Lab. It is a table top display designed to facilitate dining process. Smart Dining Table uses touchable interface to interact with users, providing a new, interesting and efficient experience in dining process. In GuangZhou, the south city of China, Yam Cha is a traditional and local way of entertainment in which normally elders gather together with friends or relatives to have tea and snack, and most importantly, to chat. Yam Cha has a long history in China, and Guangzhou has developed its own unique "Yam Cha" culture. In this paper, we discuss about previous research we did on Yam Cha in GuangZhou, and the approach we propose to manage and analyze issues related to dining table to help designing specific version of Smart Dining Table which can fit right into the Yam Cha process and cultural environment.

This study was performed to determine by the ability of the mixed culture of Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus to ferment Dioscorea opposita Thunb. (yam) and to evaluate the nutraceutical value of fermented yam. The titratable acidity (TA) value increased from 2 to 6% with increased concentrations in both raw yam and extracted lactic acid bacteria (LAB) fermented yam (LFY). The viable cell counts and the allantoin and diosgenin contents were higher in raw LFY at large concentrations (6%) than in extracted LFY samples at all fermentation periods up to 32 h. Based on these data, it confirmed that raw yam fermented by the combination culture of L. bulgaricus and S. thermophilus for various fermentation periods favors the symbiotic growth of LAB and results in higher nutraceutical content.

Yam, Dioscorea batatas Decne (Dioscoreaceae) is a plant growing in Korea. Dioscoreae Rhizoma in the markets are classified into natural and cultural ones. These studies were conducted to investigate the differencies between natural and cultural Yams by characteristics of morphology, cell contents, chemical components and physical properties. More mucilage cells which contain calcium-oxalate raphides were contained in cultural Yam than natural Yam. However, the amount of crude protein, crude lipid and mucilage viscosity, swelling, gelatinization of polysaccharides were greater in natural Yam than the other. It is suggested that natural Yam is excellent as nutrition agent in quality and worthwhile as a resource of crude drugs.

This purpose of this study was to develop a functional muffin by adding yam powder in the shape of a muffin as a partial surrogate for wheat flour. The yam has been found to be effective for liver and kidney function, as well as the digestion of protein, since it produces glucuronic acid in the body. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine the optimal mixing conditions of yam muffins by adjusting the amounts yam powder, butter, and sugar. The mixing conditions for the yam muffins included 3 categories: yam powder $(X_1)$, sugar $(X_2)$, and butter $(X_3)$ by Central Composite Design (CCD) which was optimized by Response Surface Methodology (RSM). The effects of the three variable additions on muffin quality were examined via physical and chemical experiments, such as the analysis of texture (hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess), coloration (lightness, redness, yellowness), and height. Lastly, we performed a sensory test, which revealed significant findings for gumminess, color, appearance, flavor, softness (p<0.05), redness, and overall quality (p<0.01). Consequently, the optimal mixing rate which best satisfied the sensory items were 34.35g of yam powder, 80.15 g of sugar, and 80.55 g of butter.

This study's objective is to determine the optimum mixing ratio of yam (Dioscorea japonica THUMB) powder and egg for the preparation of pasta. Response surface methodology revealed 10 experimental points, including two replicates for yam powder and egg. Yam pasta formulation was optimized using rheology. Yellowness(p<0.05) and redness displayed a linear model pattern, while lightness was represented by a quadratic model. The texture(p<0.05), including flavor(p<0.05) and overall quality(p<0.05) was measured as a sensory evaluation. In addition, mechanical properties displayed significant values in adhesiveness(p<0.05). These results showed that yam powder affects flavor and appearance, and egg affects adhesiveness and overall quality. The optimum formulations processed by numerical and graphical optimization were determined at 19.50 g of yam powder and 28.07 g of egg.

한국산 마의 주요 품종인 D. batatas, D. aimadoimo 및 D. japonica 등 3가지 품종의 일반성분을 분석하여 비교하였고 각 시료들을 동결건조하여 분말로 만든 다음 분획하여 HPLC에 의한 탄수화물의 조성과 함량, DNS법에 의한 환원당을 정량하였다. 탄수화물 중 유리당을 구성하는 주된 조성은 fructose, glucose, sucrose 및 maltose 등이었고 이 중 D. batatas에서는 glucose와 sucrose, D. aimadoimo와 D. japonica에서는 fructose와 sucrose가 가장 많은 부분을 차지하고 있었다. 총당은 주로 mannose와 glucose로 구성 되었고 3가지 품종 모두 mannose가 80% 이상으로, 이는 마가 감자나 고구마보다 끈끈한 점질물로 알려진 mannan이 많기 때문인 것으로 생각된다. Soluble fraction과 전체 마에서의 환원당 정량결과 soluble fraction에서 당함량은 D. aimadoimo가 가장 많았고, insoluble fraction에서 당함량은 D. japonica가 가장 많았다.

The purpose of this study was to confirm the possibility of using Korean purple yam (Dioscorea alata) as proximate composition, material, and antioxidant activity. In the proximate composition of the freeze-dried purple yam powder, the carbohydrate content was the highest at 86.67%, and in minerals, potassium showed the highest content at 1,765.69 mg/100 g. To study the antioxidant activity of purple yam, distilled water and 70% ethanol were used as extraction solvents. The total polyphenol, total flavonoid, and total anthocyanin contents were 1.3~1.6 times higher in 70% ethanol extract, than in the distilled water extract. As a result of ORAC, DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity, SOD activity, and reducing power, the 70% ethanol extract showed higher antioxidant activity than the distilled water extract in all results. As a result of freeze-drying purple yam and measuring antioxidant activity by extraction solvents, it is concluded that purple yam can contribute to the food industry as a natural antioxidant and health functional material.

Yam has been recognized having the beneficial effects for the prevention of various diseases, such as cancer, immunity, infection and obesity etc. There is increasing consideration to supplement the antioxidant nutrients to make up the lack of the antioxidant nutrient intakes. No study has been reported for the analysis of antioxidant mineral contents and comparison to dietary recommended intake for the sense of health promotion. In our study, we analyzed the contents of antioxidant trace elements (Zn, Mn, Fe, Cu and Se) and Cr contents in cultivated Korean yam powders for evaluation of nutrient intake aspects. We collected the commercial yam powders from six different cultivated areas in the South Korea and measured antioxidant minerals (Zn, Mn, Fe, Cu and Se) and Cr contents using trace element-free plasma spectrometer (ICP) or atomic absorption spectrometer (AAS) after dry-ashing and then wet-acid digestion. The accuracy of mineral analysis method was confirmed by the mineral analysis of standard reference material. Each analyzed element contents in yam were compared to dietary reference intakes of Koreans (KDRIs). The average levels of trace elements (Zn, Mn, Fe, Cu, Se and Cr) in yam powders were 18.3, 11.9, 36.0, 3.7, 1.9 and 1.27 ${\mu}g/g$ yam powder, respectively. The intakes of Zn, Fe, Cu and Se of which KDRIs is determined, are accounted as being up to 23.8%, 55.6%, 32.5% and 236% recommended intake (RI) of KDRIs, if daily yam supplementation (50 g) of commercial instruction would be considered. The intake of Mn is about 25% adequate intake (AI) of KDRIs with the daily supplementation of yam powder. Most of mineral intakes from daily yam supplementation were with the range of non-detectable to <10% upper limit (UL) level, which is very much safe. The study results show that daily supplementation of Korean yam power is beneficial to provide the supplemental nutrient intake and also is safe, if the suggested dosage would be considered.

In this article, an attempt has been made to explain the failure mechanism of spun yams. The mechanism includes the aspects of generation and distribution of forces on a fibre under the tensile loading of a yam, the free body diagram of forces, the conditions for gripping and slipping of a fibre, and the initiation, propagation, and ultimate yam rupture in its weakest link. A simple mathematical model for the tenacity of spun yams has been proposed. The model is based on the translation of fibre bundle tenacity into the yam tenacity.
