This study is performed to examine the functional and quality characteristics of glutinous barley Jeung-pyun added with beet powder. Jeung-pyun is being prepared with concentration of 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8% (w/w) of the beet according to nonglutinous rice powder weight. The pH level of Jeung-pyun batters decrease along with fermentation time. However, the pH level of Jeung-pyun is higher than that of the Jeung-pyun batter. For hunter’s color value of glutinous barley Jeung-pyun added with beet powder, the L (lightness) values decrease with increasing concentrations of beet powder, whereas a (redness) values increase (p<0.001). In the texture analysis, the hardness, chewiness and gumminess are significantly increased with the amount of glutinous barley Jeung-pyun with added beet powder. According to sensory evaluations, the appearance, color, flavor, taste, texture and overall quality are considered very good in the 4% of added beer powder in glutinous barley Jeung-pyun (p<0.001). The antioxidant activities of beet powder by DPPH free radical scavenging activity, ferric reducing antioxidant power and total phenolic contents are being recorded at 259.52 ㎕/㎎, 0.44±0.01, 15.29±0.04 ㎎ GAE/g respectively. The antioxidant activities of glutinous barley Jeung-pyun added with beet powder increase with increasing concentrations of beet powder. These results suggest that beet powder are useful as functional food resources within antioxidant activities.
This study is conducted to investigate the effects of Chinese artichoke powder on the antioxidant activities and the quality characteristics of tofu. Tofus are being prepared with different amounts of Chinese artichoke powder in ratios of 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8% according to the soy milk quantity. According to the increasing contents of Chinese artichoke powder, the yield and turbidity of tofus are significantly increased (p<0.001) whereas the pH levels of tofus are significantly decreased (p<0.001). In terms of color, the L, a and b values are significantly decreased with increasing Chinese artichoke powder concentrations (p<0.001). From the texture profile analysis of the tofus, the chewiness, gumminess and cohesiveness of tofus are significantly decreased (p>0.01) according to the levels of added Chinese artichoke powder content. The contents of isoflavones such as daidzin and genistin are significantly increased with increasing concentrations of Chinese artichoke powder (p<0.001). The microstructure of tofus is being examined by SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope). In the sensory test, the sample which contains 0.4% of Chinese artichoke powder is ranked significantly higher (p>0.001) than the other groups according to several sensory parameters such as appearance, color, flavor, taste, texture and the overall preferences.
오렌지의 위생성 및 보존성을 향상시키고, 수입국의 검역 기준을 정립하기 위한 연구의 일환으로 오렌지에 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1, 1.5 kGy로 감마선 조사를 실시하여 3℃에서 60일 동안 저장하면서 미생물 및 이화학적 품질 특성을 조사하였다. 오렌지 1.5 kGy 조사구의 호기성세균, 효모 및 곰팡이는 각각 3.59 log CFU/g, 3.75 log CFU/g에서 1.75 log CFU/g, 2.26 log CFU/g까지 감소하여 조사선량과 저장기간에 따라 유의적인 차이를 보였다. pH는 비조사구와 조사구 사이의 유의적인 차이를 나타내지 않았고, 산도는 조사선량과 저장기간의 증가에 따라 감소하였다. Vitamin C 함량은 조사선량과 저장기간의 증가에 따라 유의적으로 감소하였다. 관능평가는 조사선량과 저장기간이 증가할수록 감소하였고, 1.5 kGy는 색깔, 신맛, 단맛, 향, 질감, 전체적인 선호도에서 가장 낮은 선호도를 보였다. 이상의 결과를 종합하여 볼 때, 감마선 조사는 미생물학적 안정성에는 효과적이지만, 1 kGy와 1.5 kGy는 물리적 특성과 관능 특성에 좋지 않은 영향을 끼치는 것으로 보고, 품질 변화를 최소화하기 위한 최적 선량은 0.4~0.6 kGy 인 것으로 사료된다.
생체 내 실험에서 발효 인삼꽃 추출물(FM), 발효하지 않은 인삼꽃 추출물(FD)과 대조군으로 생리식염수를 2주간 마우스 체중 ㎏ 당 100, 200 ㎎/㎏ B.W.의 농도로 마우스에 경구 투여한 후 LPS에 의해 활성화된 복강 대식세포가 분비하는 염증성 사이토카인 IL-6, TNF-α의 생성량을 측정하였다. 그 결과, IL-6는 발효 LPS로 자극한 경우, 두 가지 농도에서 모두 처리한 군에 비해 높은 증식능을 나타내었고, LPS로 자극한 결과, 특히 발효 인삼꽃 추출물 200 ㎎/㎏ B.W. 농도에서 유의적으로 낮은 IL-6 분비량을 보였다. TNF-α의 경우, 100 ㎎/㎏ B.W.와 200 ㎎/㎏ B.W. 두 농도 모두에서 LPS로 자극하지 않은 경우, 낮은 증식 효과를 보여주었고, 자극한 경우, 인삼꽃 시료를 첨가한 군이 대조군보다 낮은 TNF-α 분비량을 보였으며, FM에서 FD보다 더 TNF-α를 억제하는 효과가 큰 것을 볼 수 있었다. 이상의 결과에 따르면 FD의 사이토카인 IL-6, TNF-α 생성 효과는 200 ㎎/㎏ B.W. 농도 투여 시 효과적으로 면역 세포와 면역 기관의 주요 기능을 증진시킬 가능성이 있을 것으로 사료된다. 이러한 연구결과를 토대로 앞으로 인삼꽃 발효를 이용한 기능성 사료 개발과 더불어 산업적 측면에서 보다 긍정적인 효과를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
국내 벼 품종 중 아밀로스 함량과 아밀로펙틴 조성이 다양한 품종의 막걸리 특성을 분석하여 막걸리 품질 고급화 및 다양화를 위한 자료를 제공하고자 본 실험을 수행한 결과는 다음과 같았다. ‘고아미2호’, ‘고아미3호’, ‘고아미4호’는 품종별 전분 특성과 호화 특성 분석 결과, 낮은 아밀로펙틴 단쇄 비율과 높은 아밀로스 함량에 기인하여 점성이 낮게 나타남을 확인할 수 있었고, 높은 호화개시온도로 인해 가열흡수비와 팽창용적이 각각 2.09~2.13, 25.02~26.78 ㎤로 다른 품종에 비해 유의하게 낮아, 막걸리 발효에 적합한 전분의 호화가 이루어지지 않음을 확인할 수 있어, 막걸리 제조를 위해 호화를 증진시키기 위한 가공 방법 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단되었다. 품종별 막걸리의 품질 특성은 ‘설갱’, ‘백진주’, ‘일품’의 알코올 함량은 17.3~18.0% 범위로 통계적인 유의차는 없었으나, ‘고아미2호’와 ‘고아미3호’, ‘고아미4호’는 10.0~10.5%로 상대적으로 낮은 알코올 함량을 나타내었고, 당도 또한 ‘설갱’, ‘백진주’, ‘일품’에 비해 절반 가까이 낮았으나, pH와 산도는 품종 간 유의한 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 또한 원료곡에서 높은 난소화성 다당류 함량을 지닌 ‘고아미4호’ 등은 막걸리에서도 역시 난소화성 다당류 함량이 유의하게 높아, 향후 막걸리 제품으로 이용 시 건강 기능성에 기여할 가능성이 높을 것으로 기대되었다. 결과적으로 아밀로펙틴 조성과 난소화성 다당류 함량에서 차이를 보인 ‘고아미2호’, ‘고아미3호’, ‘고아미4호’ 막걸리의 높은 제조수율과 난소화성 다당류 함량 및 낮은 알코올 함량과 당도를 확인하였으며, 지속적인 발효 공정 연구를 통해 국내 기능성 품종을 이용한 고품질 막걸리 개발이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.
들기름 및 미강유를 베이스로 개발한 혼합 식용유는 오메가-3 지방산인 리놀렌산 함량이 약 20% 정도로 매우 높다. 이는 기존의 일반 식용유 중 오메가-3 지방 함량이 매우 높은 콩기름과 카놀라유의 리놀렌산 함량이 각각 6% 및 10% 내외인 점을 감안하면, 이들 식용유에 비하여 새로 들기름과 미강유를 혼합한 식용유는 2~3배 높은 비율로 오메가-3 지방산을 제공할 수 있어서, 오메가-3 지방산 섭취가 부족한 현대인의 식단에서 중요한 오메가-3 지방산 급원으로서의 역할을 할 수 있을 것이다. 뿐만 아니라, 토코페롤 함량도 약 46.77 ㎎/ 100 g oil 정도인데, 가장 주목할 일은 토코페롤 동족류 중 비타민 E의 활성이 가장 강한 알파-토코페롤(31.71 ㎎/100 g oil)이 가장 많이 존재하여, 총 토코페롤의 64%를 차지하고 있어서 비타민 E로서의 기능이 높다. 혈중 콜레스테롤 함량을 낮추는 기능성이 알려진 파이토스테롤 함량이 들기름과 미강유를 혼합한 식용유에 약 7,200 ppm 함유되어 있어, 일반적인 식용유의 3,000 ppm의 약 2.3배에 달한다. 본 연구에서 개발한 들기름과 미강유를 혼합한 식용유는 일반적인 식용유인 콩기름과 거의 유사한 산화안정성을 갖는 것으로 확인되어, 일반 들기름에 비하여 현저히 높은 산화안정성이 확보되었다.

The following study is the result of herbal teas puffed at different temperatures between 140~220℃. Depending on treatment temperatures, the water contents decreased, while some carbonization occurred and crude ash contents relatively increased. Also, the crude protein and crude fat experienced little changes. B(α)P contents (0.16~0.17 ppb) showed little change according to treatment temperatures. From this result, the B(α)P content differed depending on the treatment temperature and raw materials. Solid elution rate figures of the herbal teas ranged from 0.27~0.45% (w/w) and the rate of solid elution increased along with higher puffing temperatures. The reason for the increase in solid elution rates is due to the breakage of cross bridges between the raw materials in the herbal tea which are carbohydrates, proteins, lipids and etc. after treatments of physical changes rather than chemical ones.
The purpose of this study is to examine the relationships between body mass index (BMI), satisfaction of perceived somatotype, and eating disorder of 133 female college students from Gyeong-gi province. The average weight is 55.3±8.8kg, and the BMI is categorized into three groups: underweight, normal weight, and overweight. In terms of the satisfaction for perceived somatotype, 58.6% of the total respondents replied "unsatisfied," which consists of 14% of the underweight group, 37.6% of the normal weight group, and 6.8% of the overweight group. This reveals that the negative association between the satisfaction levels of perceived somatotype and BMI in the normal weight group is statistically significant (p<0.001). Among three eating disorder scores, the first factor, the drive for thinness, shows significant difference (p<0.005) among groups with 2.82 points in the underweight group, 3.38 points in the normal weight group, and 3.86 points in the overweight group; such result shows that there is a drive for being skinny even within the underweight group. Second, the satisfaction levels of perceived somatotype type shows significant dissatisfaction among all groups with 3.41 points in the underweight group, 4.15 points in the normal weight group and 4.73 points in the overweight group. Third, the bulimia degree reveals a significant difference within each group, 2.15 points in the underweight group, 2.33 points in the normal weight group, and 2.78 points in the overweight group. Overall, more than half of the female college students are dissatisfied with their body shapes despite the fact that they are under or within the normal weight. In addition, the drive for being skinny and dissatisfaction levels of perceived somatotypes appear to be significantly higher with higher BMI levels.
In this study, soybean is used to produce soymilk according to various extracting methods and heating time. Specifically, the soy slurry is being filtered before being heated, or heated before being filtered. Following that the soymilk produced is freeze-dried to be powdered, and then, the quality characteristics of the powdered soymilk are mutually compared to determine the applicability of various food additives. The freeze-dried soymilk powder shows 2.03~6.35% of moisture content, and in terms of unit quantity, retained more proteins, which suggests that the ratio of protein extraction is higher than any other nutrients. Accordingly, the protein coefficient is significantly higher in soymilk powder being heated and processed than in raw soybeans. In particular, protein coefficient is the highest in the soymilk which is heated for 20 minutes before being filtered (SHBF20). The longer the heating time was, the trypsin inhibitor (TI) tended to be far less active. Such an inactivation seems to be more apparent in the “SHAF” soymilk powder than “SHBF” soymilk powder. Because protein had to be denaturated by heating for soymilk, the nitrogen solubility index (NSI) of soymilk powder is decreased considerably, while the protein digestibility, water absorption, emulsification and foaming activity all increase. Oil absorption tends to decrease slightly. As discussed above, the soymilk heated for 10 minutes after being filtered (SHAF10) and the soymilk heated for 20 minutes before being filtered (SHBF20) show optimum processing conditions for soymilk powder.
Platycodon grandiflorum have been used as a traditional remedy and food source. This study was performed to investigate the immunomodulating effects of Platycodon grandiflorum in mouse, using ex vivo experiments. Six to seven-week old mice were fed ad libitum on a chow diet, and water extract of Platycodon grandiflorum was orally administrated at two different concentractions (50 and 500 ㎎/㎏ B.W./day) every other day for four weeks. In ex vivo experiments, the highest proliferation of splenocytes and levels of cytokine (IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α) production were observed in 500 ㎎/㎏ BW/day supplementation group for all three cytokines stimulated by LPS. In conclusion, this study suggests that Platycodon grandiflorum extracts may enhance the immune function by regulating the splenocytes proliferation and cytokine production capacity by activating macrophages in mice.

Ohmic heating uses electric resistance heat which occurs equally and rapidly inside food when the electrical current is transmitted into. Prior to the study, we have researched the potato starch’s thermal property changes during ohmic heating. Comparing with conventional heating, the gelatinization temperature and the range of potato starch treated by ohmic heating are increased and narrowed respectively. Herein, we have studied thermal property changes of wheat, corn, potato and sweet potato starch by ohmic heating as well as conventional heating. And then we measure the water holding capacity of starches. Annealing of starch is a heat treatment method heated at 3~4% below the gelatinization point. This treatment changes the starch’s thermal property. In the DSC analysis of this study, the To, Tp, Tc of all starch levels have increased, and the Tc-To narrowed. In the ohmic heating, the treatment sample is extensively changed but not with the conventional heating. From the ohmic treatment, increases from gelatinization temperature are potato (8.3℃) > wheat (5.3℃) > corn (4.9℃) > sweet potato (4.5℃), and gelatinization ranges are potato (7.9℃), wheat (7.5℃), corn (6.1℃) and sweet potato (6.8℃). In the case of conventional treatment, water holding capacity is not changed with increasing temperature but the ohmic heating is increased. Water holding capacity is related to the degree of gelatinization for starch. This result show that when treated with below gelatinization temperature, the starches are partly gelatined by ohmic treatment. When viewing the results of the above, ohmic treatment is enhanced by heating and generating electric currents to the starch structure.
The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of celebrity endorsers used in fast food industry among highschool and undergraduate students. By taking the sample’s age and income into consideration, the advertisement examples of fast food industries were chosen for this study. Data was collected by questionnaires from 400 students. For statistical analysis, the SPSS V19.0 was used for reliability and factor analysis, chi-square test and regression analysis. The results are as follows: First, there was a significant difference (p<0.01) in advertising effects according to gender and education level. Out of the consumers who were exposed to celebrity endorsers, the highschool students and women showed higher advertising effects. Second, the advertising attitude was positively related to brand images (F: 479.680, p<0.01) and buying intentions (F: 1101.427, p<0.01) as well as brand images on purchase intentions (F: 492.175, p<0.01). In conclusion, the consumers with positive attitudes towards advertisements will also evaluate brand images positively and be more likely to purchase the products.
The purpose of this study is to analyze the gap in perceived importance-satisfaction rates of foreign Chinese students regarding the university foodservice selection attributes. All statistical analyses are conducted by the SPSS package program (ver 20.0). The results of the statistical analyses are as follows: The validity of the 22 food service selection attributes is being evaluated via the exploratory factor analysis and then five factors are extracted. The five factors are: ‘Factor 1. Cleanness and service quality’, ‘Factor 2. Food quality and price’, ‘Factor 3. Physical environment’, ‘Factor 4. Convenience’, and ‘Factor 5. Service environment’. According to the results of one-way ANOVA, physical environment showed that significant differences across the periods of residence in Korea and the eating frequency at on campus foodservices. On the other hand, the food quality and price, convenience, and service environment showed that significant differences across the periods of residence in Korea. In addition, according to the Importance-Satisfaction Analysis results, ‘ventilation of dining room’ is the key aspect that university food service managers should reinforce. In conclusion, in order to increase the customer satisfaction rates, the food service managers should not only improve the quality of food and service but also the physical environments of the food service facility.
A study was performed on the consumption of prepackaged meals (Dosirak) sold by food service providers through Importance-Satisfaction Analysis (ISA) to determine the factors that consumers seek in quality Dosirak. According to the analysis, food service providers need to concentrate on food freshness and temperature while maintaining food taste. As for food packaging, consumers were found to prefer microwaveable plastic containers the most (29.3%). Nonetheless, they found that packaging needed improvements in securing food content during transportation and in food labeling, especially for expiration dates. The study also investigated which factors, including menu selection and advertising, affected the sales of food service provider Dosirak the most. The most important factor was determined to be price. Regarding menu selection, the quality of food seasoning and ingredients, daily specials and the variety of combination sets were found to be important. Availability of delivery (3.83/5.00), advance ordering (3.82/5.00) and discounts (3.75/5.00) were important factors in advertising. The conclusions of the study point to a consumer base that recognizes the ease and benefits of Dosirak but desires high quality food items at low cost. To expand the consumer base, food service providers must continually develop new menu items that satisfy consumer tastes and trends, maintain sanitary conditions and improve food labelling.
