This study examined the antioxidant activity and quality of Jeung-pyun prepared with different concentrations of hardy kiwi powder at 0%, 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, and 10%. When the moisture content of Jeung-pyun was between 49.94-53.33%, the pH measurement showed a significant decrease with the increase of the hardy kiwi powder from 3.95 to 4.82. The L (lightness) values and the (redness) values decreased, whereas the b (yellowness) values increased with increasing amounts of hardy kiwi powder. The study showed a significant decrease in hardness, chewiness, and gumminess as the proportion of hardy kiwi powder in the Jeung-pyun increased. The total polyphenol content and DPPH radical scavenging activity increased noticeably as more hardy kiwi powder was added to the Jeung-pyun. As a result, the study groups with added hardy kiwi powder showed higher antioxidant activity than the control groups. Based on the results, this study recommends hardy kiwi as a good ingredient for enhancing the functionality of Jeung-pyun.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of emulsion-type chicken breast sausages containing black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) powder. The chicken breast and BSFL powder were added at various mixing ratios (C:chicken breast 56% and BSFL powder 0%, 1%:chicken breast 55% and BSFL powder 1%, 2%:chicken breast 54% and BSFL powder 2%, 3%:chicken breast 53% and BSFL powder 3%). The pH, moisture content, and water holding capacity of the sausages increased with the powder amount. In the instrumental color evaluation, the L* and b* values were significantly different among the samples (p<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in a* value (P>0.05) with the amount of powder added. Volatile basic nitrogen and acid value tended to increase with the amount of BSFL powder. The total phenolic content tended to increase, but the value of IC50 according to DPPH radical scavenging decreased as the amount of powder increased. This study concluded that BSFL powder can be used in meat products processing as a substitute for meat protein and may also improve antioxidant activity.

본 연구는 비산소 분쇄 및 포장이 해조류 분말의 색도, 항산화활성 및 미생물 수에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 대조구로는 산소 조건하에서 분쇄 및 포장을 진행하였다. 색도는 대조구가 저장기간이 지남에 따라 L값과 b값은 감소하고 a값이 증가하여 갈변현상이 일어나는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 총 페놀함량 (9.8~8.0mg GAE/100g dw), DPPH (12.57~11.00mg BHAE/100g dw), ABTS (13~8.4mg AAE/100g dw) 및 FRAP (11.2~8.0mg Fe(II)/100g dw)활성이 모두 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 반면에, 진공-질소치환에 의한 비산소 분쇄 및 포장의 경우 유의적으로 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 미생물수는 대장균군, 일반세균수, 효모 및 곰팡이를 분석하였고 대장균군과 곰팡이는 모든 샘플에서 불검출되었다. 대조구는 0~8주차에서 일반세균수와 효모가 각각 1.52~1.96 log CFU/g, 0~1.77 log CFU/g으로 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 비산소 분쇄 및 포장 조건은 0~8주차에서 일반세균수와 효모가 각각 1.52~1.53 log CFU/g, 0~1.25 log CFU/g으로 각각 나타나 일반세균수는 유의적으로 차이가 없었으나 효모는 약간 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 색도유지, 높은 총 페놀함량 및 항산화 활성 유지, 일반세균 및 효모의 성장 억제를 위해서는 진공-질소치환에 의한 비산소 분쇄 및 포장 조건하에서 품질특성과 미생물수를 유지하는데 효과적일 것으로 판단된다.

To develop quality-improved muffins, the influence of the partial replacement of wheat flour with lemon balm powder (LBP) on their quality characteristics was analyzed. Studies were carried out to examine the supplementation of different percentages of LBP (2%, 4%, 6%, and 8%) on the quality characteristics of LBP muffins. The incorporation of LBP significantly affected the physicochemical parameters of muffins. Such incorporation at different levels significantly decreased pH, moisture content, baking loss, hardness, and color parameters, including L*, a*, and b* values of muffins (p<0.05). No significant effect of LBP substitution was found in height changes (p>0.05). Finally, the consumer acceptance test indicated that the highest levels of LBP incorporation (i.e., 8%) had a considerably adverse effect on consumer preferences in all attributes. In contrast, muffins with moderate levels of LBP (4%) showed a good and satisfactory sensorial acceptance in general. Thus, LBP was successfully employed in muffins, improving quality and broadening its potential applications in other bakery products.

This study was performed to evaluate the quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of Nurungji by varying the purple sweet potato powder addition time (AR: added after rice cooking, BR: added before rice cooking) and powder ratio (0, 2, 4, 6, 8%) on the prepared rice during Nurungji’s manufacturing. In both AR and BR samples, water binding capacity, soluble solid content, reducing sugar, and hardness increased with an increasing proportion of purple sweet potato powder; however, the pH and moisture content decreased. The L value and b value decreased and increased with the influence of anthocyanin in purple sweet potato powder. The total polyphenol, flavonoid, anthocyanin contents, DPPH, and ABTS radical scavenging activity were highest in Nurungji with 8% of purple sweet potato powder. Moreover, AR samples showed higher antioxidant activity than BR samples. Based on the study results above, the preparation of Nurungji with 8% purple sweet potato powder by AR process was more favorable based on the content of antioxidants and antioxidant activity.

Sulfate-rich waste powder containing a radioactive nuclide is generated from chemical decontamination process and radioactive liquid waste treatment using ion exchange resin. The radioactive sulfate-rich waste powder should be stabilized for final disposal. The techniques for immobilization of the radioactive sulfate-rich waste powder such as hydraulic cement, geopolymer, and iron phosphate glass have been applied, however, there are limitation in these techniques. Firstly, the hydraulic cement cannot applied to the wastes containing high concentration of sulfate because the expansion, cracks, and disintegration can be happened in the waste form. Geopolymer has a low density although they can be used as a good binder. The iron phosphate glass can be utilized, however, a considerable amount of SO2 gas is emitted due to the high sintering temperature. In this study, immobilization of radioactive sulfate-rich waste powder was carried out to resolve above problems by applying low temperature sintering method using a low-melting glass. As a result, it was confirmed that the waste form has a high bulk density. The compressive strength of the waste form was over 40 MPa, which is higher than the acceptance criteria (≥ 3.44 MPa). From ANS 16.1 test, it was verified that the waste form met the acceptance criteria of the leachability index (≥ 6). It was also confirmed that the waste form was chemically durable through product consistency test (PCT). In addition, the chemical stabilities of waste forms were compared following the sintering condition and the composition of the waste forms. The difference of the chemical stability was explained by difference in the abundance of chemical form obtained from the sequential extraction test.

This study evaluate the antioxidant activity and quality characteristics of muffins prepared with the addition of Cirsium nipponicum powder in the ratio of 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8% and confirm the possibility of using Cirsium nipponicum as a functional food. As the proportion of Cirsium nipponicum powder increased, the specific gravity of the muffins increased while their height, specific volume, moisture content and pH decreased. The baking loss rate of the samples prepared with the addition of Cirsium nipponicum powder was higher than in the control group. The ‘L’ and ‘b’ values decreased with the increase in the Cirsium nipponicum powder content, while the ‘a’ value increased. The evaluation of texture showed that hardness, chewiness, and gumminess increased with an increase in the Cirsium nipponicum powder content. As per the results of the consumer acceptability test, the 4-6% Cirsium nipponicum powder group showed higher scores than the other groups in the characteristics of color, flavor, taste, and texture, and the 4% group secured the highest score for overall acceptance. Also, with the increasing addition of Cirsium nipponicum powder, the antioxidant activity levels increased, as indicated by the total phenolic content, DPPH, and ABTS radical scavenging activities and reducing power. Based on these study results, muffins prepared with the addition of 4% of Cirsium nipponicum powder showed the best functional and sensory qualities.

본 연구는 다양한 상대습도(11~93%) 조건에서 해조류의 미생물 안정성 및 품질특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 미생물 안정성은 저장 중 대장균군, 일반세균, 효모 및 곰팡이수를 분석하였다. 일반세균은 상대습도 69~93%에서 4.40~7.00 log CFU/g, 효모 및 곰팡이는 4.20~6.40 log CFU/g로 상대습도 69%이상 조건에서 일반세균, 효모 및 곰팡이의 수가 급격하게 증가하였다. 고결현상은 상대습도 11~53% 조건에서는 일어나지 않았으나 69, 81, 93% 조건에서는 각각 86.9, 99.45, 99.98%로 높은 고결현상을 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 색도는 상대습도가 높아질수록 L값과 b값이 감소하였고, a값이 증가하여 갈변현상이 일어났다. 또한, 총 페놀함량(9.10~8.66 mg GAE/100 g dw), ABTS 소거능(24.20~24.18 mg AAE/100 g dw), FRAP(15.34~15.33 mg Fe(II)/100 g dw)활성은 저장 중 상대습도 11~33%에서 가장 높게 유지되었다. 그러나, 상대습도 43~93%에서 저장 중 총 페놀함량(8.66~4.00 mg GAE/100 g dw), ABTS(22.57~4.50 mg AAE/100 g dw), FRAP(13.06~4.00 mg AAE/100 g dw)활성이 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 상대습도 81% 조건에서 ABTS 및 FRAP이 1/3배로 감소하였고, 93% 조건에서 총 페놀함량, ABTS 및 FRAP이 각각 1/2배, 1/5배, 1/3배로 감소하였다. 따라서, 일반세균, 효모 및 곰팡이의 성장 억제, 고결현상 방지, 갈변억제, 높은 총 페놀함량과 항산화활성 유지를 위해서는 상대습도 53% 이하의 조건에서 보관하는 것이 미생물 안정성 및 품질특성 유지에 효과적일 것으로 판단된다.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate cookies prepared with five different quantities (0, 5, 10, 15, and 20%) of watermelon powder (WP). This study analyzed quality characteristics, consumer liking, and CATA (check-all-that-apply) of the samples. The density and pH of the cookie dough and the L-value of the cookies tended to decrease as the amount of watermelon powder increased (p<0.05), whereas the spread factor, a-value, and hardness of the cookies tended to increase as the amount of watermelon powder increased (p<0.001). The b-value tended to increase up to WP10, but it tended to decrease from WP15 (p<0.001). The results of the evaluation of consumer liking showed that overall liking was the highest for WP5 and lowest for WP20 (p<0.05). In the analysis of the CATA survey, the main reasons for liking for all the samples were ‘Appearance’, ‘Color’, ‘Sweet taste’, ‘Nutty odor/flavor’, ‘Crispiness’, and ‘Familiarity’. WP5 showed the most diverse reasons for being liked. The common reason for disliking samples with the addition of watermelon powder was ‘Residual feel in the mouth’. In the correspondence analysis, attributes of ‘Stale taste’, ‘Clean taste’, ‘Softness’, ‘Familiarity’, ‘Moistness’, ‘Color’, ‘Blandness’ were detected in the WP0 and WP5. The results indicate that WP5 with a 5% supplementation of watermelon powder is appropriate for improving the quality and consumer acceptability of the cookies.

In this study, we report the microstructure and characteristics of Ag-SnO2-Bi2O3 contact materials using a controlled milling process with a subsequent compaction process. Using magnetic pulsed compaction (MPC), the milled Ag-SnO2-Bi2O3 powders have been consolidated into bulk samples. The effects of the compaction conditions on the microstructure and characteristics have been investigated in detail. The nanoscale SnO2 phase and microscale Bi2O3 phase are well-distributed homogeneously in the Ag matrix after the consolidation process. The successful consolidation of Ag-SnO2-Bi2O3 contact materials was achieved by an MPC process with subsequent atmospheric sintering, after which the hardness and electrical conductivity of the Ag-SnO2-Bi2O3 contact materials were found to be 62–75 HV and 52–63% IACS, respectively, which is related to the interfacial stability between the Ag matrix, the SnO2 phase, and the Bi2O3 phase.

This study evaluated the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of cookies after adding black ginseng powder at ratios of 0%, 1%, 3%, 5%, and 7%, and the potential of black ginseng as a functional food. The moisture content increased with an increase in the black ginseng powder content while the pH decreased. The L value d ec reased with increase in the black ginseng powder content while the a and b values increased. The hardness decreased with increase in the black ginseng powder content. Notably, antioxidant activities, such as 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH), 2-2'-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)diammonium salt (ABTS) radical scavenging showed the highest increases in cookies containing 7% black ginseng powder. The total phenol and flavonoid contents significantly increased according to the amount of black ginseng powder added. These results suggest that black ginseng powder can be applied to cookies to achieve high quality and antioxidant activity.

The quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of Tteokbokkidduk alone or supplemented with 3%, 6%, 9%, and 12% wheat bran powder were assessed, to increase use of the wheat bran by-product of wheat milling. The moisture content, pH, and starch elution of Tteokbokkidduk increased with increasing wheat bran powder, while the water absorption rate did not. The L color value decreased and the a and b values increased with increasing wheat bran powder. Scanning electron microscopy of Tteokbokkidduk prepared with 0% and 3% wheat bran powder revealed uniform pore size distribution. In terms of texture profile analysis, hardness and chewiness increased, while cohesiveness decreased with increased content of wheat bran powder. Acceptance was highest for samples with 6% wheat bran powder. Quantitative description analysis (QDA) revealed increased brownness, roughness, nutty, bitterness, astringency, savory character, and hardness, and decreased adhesiveness, springiness, and chewiness with increased wheat bran powder. Principal component analysis (PCA) revealed highest overall acceptance of samples prepared with 6% wheat bran powder, reflecting the relatively low values of detrimental sensory characteristics. Antioxidant activities of Tteokbokkidduk increased as wheat bran powder content increased. The addition of 6% wheat bran powder resulted in excellent Tteokbokki in terms of acceptance, quality, and antioxidant activity.

This study investigated the quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of Yanggaeng prepared with various amounts of watermelon radish flesh (WRF) powder, in ratios of 0 (control), 2.5, 5, 7.5, and 10% of the cooked white bean paste. The proximate composition, pH, sugar content, Hunter’s color values, texture analysis, and antioxidative activities of Yanggaeng were examined. Increasing the amount of WRF in the Yanggaeng tended to increase the crude ash, carbohydrate, sugar, total polyphenol, total flavonoids, and anthocyanin contents, a value, DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities, with decreasing the moisture and crude protein contents, L and b values, and pH. Texture measurement scores in terms of springiness, chewiness for Yanggaeng showed that 2.5% or 5.0% group was higher than those of the control group. Hardness was higher in the sample groups than in the control group. In conclusion, the results show that Yanggaeng with up to 7.0% added WRF powder can be developed as products, and there is a possibility of developing health functional snack products using WRF powder.

In this study, Korean Hallabong produced in Jeju Island and coffee were grafted to prepare coffee containing Hallabong extract and the nutritional components were analyzed. As the amount of Hallabong extract increased, the water content and total polyphenol content increased. However, the crude flour, crude protein, and total flavonoid content decreased significantly. The selenium content per 100 g was 91.28 mg in the 1% Hallabong group, and the iron content was 6.84 mg in the 3% Hallabong group. As the content of Hallabong extract in coffee increased, the L-value (brightness) and b-value (yellowness) increased, but the a-value (redness) showed a tendency to decrease. In the case of DPPH(2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity, the group containing 9% of Hallabong extract showed the highest value at 47.20 μmol/g of TEAC. In particular, the ABTS(2,2’-Azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline- 6-sulfonate)) and DPPH radical scavenging activity were significantly increased from coffee powder containing 6% or more of Hallabong extract(p<0.05). The caffeine content decreased as the amount of Hallabong extract added to coffee increased. Therefore, when making powder coffee with Hallabong extract added, it is recommended to set the content of Hallabong extract to 6%.

본 연구는 흰점박이꽃무지 유충 분말의 첨가량에 따른 닭 가슴살 소시지의 품질특성에 대한 영향을 분석하였다. 분석 결과 흰점박이꽃무지 유충 분말 첨가 유화형 닭고기 소시지와 첨가하지 않은 대조구 간의 일반성분 차이는 보이지 않았다(p>0.05). 흰점박이꽃무지 유충 분말 첨가량에 따라 명도는 감소하고 황색도는 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, 흰점박이꽃무지 유충 분말의 높은 pH가 육제품의 pH를 상승시켜 가열감량은 감소시키고 보수력은 증가시키는 긍정적인 영향 을 보였다. 유화형 소시지의 물성 중 경도에서 흰점박이꽃 무지 유충 분말 첨가구가 대조구 보다 높은 값을 나타내 조직감에 변화를 주었으며, 자유라디칼 활성도와 총 페놀 함량은 흰점박이꽃무지 유충 분말의 첨가량에 따라 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 이러한 결과를 통해 흰점박이꽃무지 유충 분말의 우수한 항산화 활성이 육제품에서도 발현이 가능 하며 기능성 첨가물로서 흰점박이꽃무지 유충 분말을 활용 한 기능성 소시지 제조 또한 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

2020년 경기도내 유통 중인 고춧가루의 미생물 오염도를 구매 장소, 원산지, HACCP 및 살균 여부에 따라 조사 하고, 보관방법에 따른 품질 변화를 연구하였다. 유통 중인 고춧가루 100건을 수거하여 검사한 결과 3건(대형마트 2건, 재래시장 1건)에서 Bacillus cereus가 검출되었으며, 27건(대형마트 9건, 재래시장 18건)에서 Clostridium perfringens가 검출되었다. 대형마트와 재래시장에서 수거 한 고춧가루의 일반세균수 검출량은 통계적으로 유의적인 차이는 없었으나 7 log CFU/g을 초과하는 고춧가루의 수는 대형마트보다 재래시장이 더 많았다. 보관온도(30oC, 4oC, -20oC)와 보관용기(지퍼백, 비닐봉투)에 따라 7개월까지 저장 실험한 결과, 저장 기간에 따라 미생물학적 품질 에는 큰 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 그러나 30oC에 저장한 고춧가루의 수분함량 및 ASTA color value는 저장 3개월 이후 크게 감소하였다. 따라서 고춧가루의 장기 보관 시 품질을 유지하기 위해서는 냉장고 또는 냉동고에 보관하는 것이 바람직하다고 생각된다.

This study tried to develop Jinmal dasik using pine nuts leaf powder with antibacterial and antioxidant properties. After preparing the Jinmal dasik in proportions of 0%, 2%, 4%, 6%, and 8% by varying the ratio of pine needle powder, the moisture, color, physical properties, antioxidant properties and sensory quality were measured. Except for the 8% Jinmal dasik, the L value of chromaticity significantly decreased as the amount of pine needle powder increased (p<0.001). In addition, the value significantly decreased with increased density (p<0.001). Based on our physical properties evaluation results, the hardness, cohesiveness, and elasticity decreased significantly as the amount of pine needle powder increased (p<0.001), but adhesion and chewiness increased significantly with an increase in the amount of pine needle powder (p<0.001). Total polyphenol content was significantly increased except for the 8% Jinmal dasik (p<0.001). DPPH and ABTS also increased significantly as the amount of pine needle powder increased (p<0.001). Our sensory evaluation, showed the 2% Jinmal dasik to have the highest degree of preference, however, there was no significant difference among the proportion groups (p=0.053).

This study assessed the preparation and quality characteristics of cookies prepared from Taraxacum coreamm powder (TCP) (0, 2, 4, 6, 8%) substituting wheat flour. The pH of the cookie dough significantly decreased with increasing TCP. However the density of the cookie dough was not significantly different among the test groups. The baking loss rate of the groups with TCP was slightly lower, whereas the moisture content was higher than the control group. The spread factor of the cookies decreased significantly with increasing TCP. The hardness of the cookies increased as TCP increased. In Hunter’s color value, the L and a value of the cookies decreased with increasing TCP, while the b value increased. The DPPH radical scavenging activity of the cookies significantly increased with increasing TCP. Based on the above results, this study suggested that TCP can be a good ingredient to increase the functionality of cookies.
