In this study, the physical and sensorial properties of the meat analog were studied for the purpose of improving sensory preference and mimicking animal meat. The meat analog was made with different types of liquid materials such as oil, water, lecithin, polysorbate 80, or the emulsion of these components. At the aspect of density, the sample mixed with oil was higher than the sample mixed with water. Cooking loss value was higher at the sample with water than the sample with oil and this was the result opposite to the liquid holding capacity analysis. Also, texture profile analysis result showed that the samples with medium chain triglycerides (MCT) oil only showed the highest values in all attributes except for adhesiveness. Principal component analysis was carried out to analyze sensorial properties and it showed that the overall acceptance was high when the juiciness and softness increased. This result was highly related with the addition of emulsion. Therefore, emulsion technology can be a good candidate for improving the quality of meat analog and for mimicking the taste of animal meat.

This study investigated the sensory characteristics and antioxidative activity of the reduced salt dried bulgogi bibimbap containing AF-343, a dandelion-derived compound extract. A sample with a 30% reduced salt had a sodium amount of 659.01 mg, which was significantly lower than that of the sample before the reduction (p<0.05). The textural hardness of the SW (Standard sample with the AF-343), showed the lowest value of 1.03 N/cm2, indicating that the AF-343-containing sample could have a slightly softer texture than the non-containing sample. In the analytical sensory test, the AF-343- containing samples showed a synergistic effect on the aroma and flavor of bulgogi, with values of 5.7 and 8.4, respectively, which were significantly higher than that of the non-containing sample group (4.3 and 4.4, respectively). The hardness by the sensory test was slightly hard with values of 7.2-8.1 in all samples, indicating that textural improvement was needed. In the acceptance test, all the samples scored with slightly lower values of 4-5 points, highlighting the need for future studies to improve the sensory characteristics of dried bibimbap. The flavonoid contents of AF-343-containing SW and RW sample groups were 68.21 and 64.31 mg GAE/100 g, respectively, which were significantly higher than those of the samples without AF-343 (49.06 and 44.82 mg GAE/100 g, respectively) (p<0.05). The ABTS and DPPH radical scavenging activities were similar to those of the flavonoid contents. As a result, in the production of AF-343-containing reduced-salt dried bulgogi bibimbap, more study on the textural improvement will be needed to achieve better palatability.

The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between the sensory characteristics and protein concentration of enzymatically hydrolyzed isolated soy protein. As a result of QDA, 34 attribute descriptors were developed. According to the results of the flavor profile, the strengths of most color and tastes except sourness were evaluated before activated carbon treatment sample. Principal component analysis (PCA) was performed to summarize the relationship between attributes and samples. The result of PCA was 56.35% (F1) and 35.05% (F2), having explained 94.13% in total variablility. In case of the untreated sample of active carbon, it was located in the first quadrant and correlated with color, flavor, a slightly salty taste, and a slightly bitter taste. It also showed high correlation with meju taste. The activated carbon treatment samples were located in the second quadrant and correlated with delicate taste, slight saltiness, sourness, and umami, having high correlation with burned rice.

To investigate the effects of tagatose added to yogurt fermented with Streptococcus thermophiles (ST) or Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. Bulgaricus (LB), pH, titratable acidity (TA), sugar content, color value, viable cell number, and sensory evaluation were determined on yogurts added with 7% sucrose, tagatose, or a mixture of sucrose and tagatose in triplicate. After 24 h, pH and sugar content of sucrose-added yogurt reached nearly 4.5 and 4.2 respectively, and were lower than those of yogurt with tagatose (above 5.6 and 8.6, respectively). Also, TA of sucroseadded yogurt (1.51%) was much higher than that of yogurt with tagatose (0.59%). There were no significant differences in color value and viable cell count after 24 h. However, the addition of tagatose seems to slow the growth rate of LB more than that of ST. Sensory preference revealed that mixture-added yogurts scored significantly higher in taste (5.90), texture (5.86), and overall acceptability (6.16) than yogurts with tagatose (5.20, 5.02, and 5.36, respectively), but there was no significant difference from the sucrose-added yogurts. In conclusion, tagatose inhibited the fermentation rate, but the mixture of tagatose and sucrose could be used for yogurts with lower calories and glucose index (GI) without a sensory difference from sucrose-added yogurt.

본 연구에서는 vitamin C를 넣어 발효시킨 오징어 액젓을 조미용도로 활용하기 위해 발효 과정 중 아미노산함량 변화, 염도별 이화학적 특성, 오징어 액젓과 시판 저염간장 과의 관계양상을 파악하였다. 발효 중 총 아미노산은 증가 하였으며, 그중 Asp, Pro, Gly, Ala, Val, Ile, Leu의 함량은 발효 기간에 따라 증가하였다. 소금 첨가량에 따라 오징어 액젓의 염도와 당도는 증가하였으며, 수분과 pH는 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 색도의 경우 소금을 넣을 경우 명도, 적색도, 황색도 모두 감소하였고, 소금 첨가량에 따른 차이는 있으나 특별한 경향을 보이지는 않았다. 동일한 염도의 오징어 액젓과 시판 저염간장의 관능검사 결과, 색은 모든 염도에서 차이를 보였으며, 향은 1, 2, 4%에서 차이를 보 였다. 짠맛은 염도가 높아질수록 기호도가 높아지는 경향 을 보였다. 오징어 액젓의 단맛은 가장 낮았으며, 신맛은 가장 높은 기호도를 가졌다. 오징어 액젓과 저염간장의 기 호도 양상은 83.84~94.51%의 설명력을 가지며, 향과 색의 기호도는 저염간장보다 오징어 액젓이 높았고, 감칠맛은 반대로 저염간장이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 감칠맛과 단맛은 전반적 기호도와 양의 상관관계를 가지는 것으로 조사되었다. 오징어 액젓의 염도가 높아질수록 저염간장군과 가까워지는 것으로 나타나 일정 염도를 가질 때 간장과 유사한 용도로 사용이 가능할 것으로 보인다.

본 연구는 건조숙성 조건에 따른 한우 설도육의 이화학적 및 관능적 특성 변화를 조사하고자 수행하였다. 한우 거세 1등급 설도육 54개를 구입하여 온도(2℃, 4℃), 상대습도(65%, 75%, 85%) 및 건조숙성기간(10~90일)에 따라 4종(T1~T4)의 조건으로 나누어 건조숙성하면서 도가니살 및 보섭살의 육질특성과 삼각살을 포함한 관능특성을 비교하였다. 도가니 및 보섭살의 지방함량은 4개 처리구 모두에서 숙성기간이 증가함에 따라 유의적으로 증가하였다(p<0.05). 반면에 수분함량은 건조숙성기간이 증가함에 따라 도가니육은 T2와 T4, 보섭육은 T2에서 유의적으로 감소하였다(p<0.05). 도가니 및 보섭육의 육색은 건조숙성기간이 증가됨에 따라 4개의 처리구 모두 L값(백색도), a값(적색도), b값(황색도)이 유의적으로 감소하였다. 가열감량은 도가니육의 경우 T2만 건조숙성기간이 증가할수록 감소되는 경향이었고 나머지 3개 처리구는 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 보섭육의 경우 가열감량은 처리구 4개 모두 건조숙성기간이 증가할수록 감소되는 경향이었다. 동일한 숙성일 내 처리구간 비교에서는 T2가 가열감량이 유의적으로 가장 낮았다. 전단력은 도가니육과 보섭육 모두 4개 처리구에서 건조숙성기간이 증가할수록 유의적으로 감소한 반면(p<0.05) 보수력은 유의적으로 증가하였다(p<0.05). 관능특성 변화에서 도가니육, 보섭육 및 삼각살은 건조숙성기간이 증가할수록 모든 처리구에서 연도가 증가하였다. 다즙성은 도가니육과 삼각살은 T2와 T4에서 증가하였고, 향미는 삼각살만 T2와 T4에서 증가하였다. 본 연구에서 제시된 4개의 처리구에 대한 한우 설도육의 육질 및 관능특성 분석결과 전단력, 보수력 및 연도가 모두 향상되었으며 특히 처리구 2 조건은 가열감량과 관능적 기호도에서 더 유리하게 작용한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 한우 설도육은 온도와 습도를 단계적으로 상승시키면서 약 60일 이내로 하는 것이 육질, 맛과 경제성 면에서 적절할 것으로 생각된다.

The aerobic plate counts were negative in all the samples tested. E. coli and pathogenic microorganisms tests were also negative or not detected, showing that all the samples tested were microbiologically safe according to the food code which applies to food manufacturers. Overall, potentially high value products of rice processed snacks for 6 to 12 month old infants were developed and tested They are expected to be utilized and in the competitive and growing infant food industry.

In this study, Seolgi Tteok was made in order to increase consumption of Geuk, which possesses numerous nutritional advantages, and its optimum content as a new food coloring for rice cake was determined. Quality characteristics and quantitative description analysis (QDA) of Seolgi Tteok, in which Geuk was added at 0, 4, 8, and 12%, was conducted. Consumer acceptability test was also conducted. As the amount of added Geuk increased, moisture content of Seolgi Tteok increased as well. Brightness (L-value) was the highest in the control group, and more Geuk resulted in higher values of red index (a-value) and yellow index (b-value), which corresponded to the results of the sensory evaluation. As result of the mechanical texture measurement, only adhesiveness and resilience show a significant difference. As a result of the QDA, 17 sensory characteristic terms were assessed. Among them, only 13 showed a significant difference. Among the different sensory characteristics, almost all of them except for taste characteristics were significantly influenced by the amount of Geuk. The aroma and taste of Geuk were not largely influenced. It can be suggested that Geuk is not a factor that strongly influences flavor. In conclusion, Geuk does not have a strong influence on the taste or aroma of Seolgi Tteok but does on color characteristics. It can be suggested that Geuk is qualified as a coloring material for food, and the reasonable addition amount is 8%. As a result of this research, Geuk can be considered as a coloring material for other types of rice cake, traditional Korean sweets, and even confectioneries as well as for Seolgi Tteok. This implies that Geuk can be utilized to develop various new products as a coloring material with abundant nutritional content, which will contribute to the promotion of Geuk consumption.

There has been growing concern over the emissions of formaldehyde and VOCs from automotive interior materials, as these could have an important impact on the in-vehicle air quality (IVAQ) of automotive vehicles. Odor, the components of which may include VOCs, refers to the automotive interior smell emitted directly or indirectly from any part of an automotive interior, based on human olfactory senses and a comfort evaluation of vehicle quality. The objective of this paper is to compare the instrument analysis with the sensory characteristics of an odor using GC/MS/Olfactometry. From the test, it was possible to identify the cause of odor, which can be difficult to distinguish among multiple odors, through the simultaneous performance of instrumental analysis and sensory evaluation.

바나듐 산화환원 흐름 전지에 핵심적으로 사용되는 이온교환막은 일반적으로 양이온교환막을 사용하고 있으나 co-ion인 바나듐 이온의 투과에 의한 장기적 성능 저하 문제를 해결하기 어렵다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 바나듐 투과도 및 장 기 운전 안정성의 특성을 파악하기 위해 세 가지 다른 관능기를 보유한 음이온교환막을 제조하였다. 기저막으로는 다공성 폴 리에틸렌 필름에 benzyl chloride (VBC)과 divinylbenzene (DVB)을 충진 및 가교 중합하여 제조한 후, 세 가지 다른 아민 관 능기를 각각 도입하였다. 제조된 음이온교환막들에 대해 바나듐 이온 투과 정도 및 장기 운전 안정성을 관찰한 결과 triethylamine을 관능기로 적용한 음이온교환막에서 높은 에너지효율을 유지하면서도 가장 장기적 운전 안정성을 확보할 수 있었다.

This study was conducted to investigate changes in organoleptic properties and taste components including free sugar, organic acid and free amino acid with addition of walnut. Changes in total nitrogen were insignificantly different with addition of walnut. Amino type nitrogen content was decreased in proportion to supplemental level of walnut. Content of organic acids, of which three kinds were detected, such as citric acid, malic acid and lactic acid increased more than two times with addition of walnut. Contents of free sugar and amino acid were decreased with addition of walnut. The proportion of essential amino acid was 40.6~41.4 percent. Glutamic acid in total amino acid was increased in proportion with addition of walnut. The highest sensory evaluation score was recorded in soy sauce with addition of 2 percent walnut. Together, it was expected that 2 percent addition of walnut to soy sauce has a positive effect on the taste of soy sauce.

본 연구에서는 현미컵케이크의 제조조건이 관능적 특성에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여 팽창제 함량, 수분함량, 쌀 종류를 달리하여 현미컵케이크의 소비자기호·관능검사를 실시하였다. 팽창제로 베이킹파우더를 사용하였고, 첨가량을 달리하여 소비자 기호도 평가를 한 결과 팽창제를 넣지 않은 시료는 함량이 증가할수록 외관, 향, 맛, 질감, 전체적인 기호도 면에서 좋은 결과를 나타냈다. 함량이 증가할수록 컵케이크의 부품성은 좋으나 이취 및 맛에서는 좋은 결과를 주지 못하였으며, 외관, 향, 맛, 질감 부분에서 전체적으로 좋은 결과를 나타내어 제품에 긍정적인 영향을 줄 수 있는 것을 알 수 있었다. 수분의 함량에 따라 볼륨 및 식감에 큰 영향을 주기 때문에 관능검사를 진행하게 되었다. 수분의 양이 증가할수록 외관부분에서 좋은 결과를 나타내는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 현미 컵케이크의 식감을 개선하기 위해 현미 멥쌉, 찹쌀, 혼합하여 관능검사를 실시한 결과 외관, 향 면에서는 큰 차이를 나타내지 않았고, 현미 멥쌀을 사용하여 제조한 컵케이크에서 맛, 질감 등 전체적인 기호도면에서 가장 좋은 결과를 나타냈다. 적합한 비율의 2가지 레시피를 선정하여 특성과 기호도의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 분석 결과 현미컵케이크는 제품의 색과 형태, 부드러움, 촉촉함, 푹신한 질감이 전체적인 기호도와 0.4 이상의 양의 상관관계가 있다고 나타났다.
