Background: In general, measurement qualities of cross-culturally adapted quality of life (QOL) measures are altered in many aspects, although versions of them are well-validated measures. The latent trait and measurement qualities of the QOL measures for cancer-related samples should be considered when developing cross-culturally adapted measures. Objects: To investigate the latent trait of the translated into Korean World Health Organization Quality of Life-BREF (WHOQOL-BREF) administered to different cancer survivors who had palliative rehabilitation care service (PRCS). Methods: A cross-sectional study with 139 cancer survivors who had an experience of cancer survivorship with PRCS were conducted with a two-step analytic procedure including exploratory factor analysis (EFA) to confirm the latent trait and Rasch rating scale modeling to investigate the measurement qualities of the cross-culturally adapted WHOQOL-BREF measure. Results: While the original WHOQOL-BREF measure constitutes a 4-latent trait, the EFA reveals that 24 items constitute six substantial factors. The item loadings are predominantly spread over factors 1 through 4 in a mixed manner of the latent traits, while the loadings of ‘physical health’ and ‘environmental health’ latent traits show similarity to what the original measure intended to assess. The latent trait of the cross-culturally adapted WHOQOL-BREF measure administered to different cancer survivors is likely to reveal more dimensions than the original WHOQOL-BREF measure. Person reliability (i.e., analogous to Cronbach’s alpha) and separation are measured with 0.92 and 3.48, respectively. All items except the one item (medical treatment item) fit the Rasch rating model. Conclusion: Findings suggest that the latent trait and the measurement qualities of the cross-culturally adapted WHOQOL-BREF measure should be taken into consideration when applying versions of it to various populations.

In this study, the quality characteristics were compared by substituting allulose with a ratio of 0-40% instead of sugar used in dacquoise. The specific gravity and pH of the dacquoise dough were not significantly different, regardless of the allulose content. The spreadability was the highest in the sample using only sugar and decreased as the allulose content increased. Moisture content did not show a significant difference, the baking loss was the highest in the sample using 100% sugar, and there was no significant difference in the samples replaced with allulose. As a result of measuring the chromaticity of dacquoise, the L value and b value decreased and the a value showed a significant difference between the samples as the amount of substitution of allulose increased. Hardness increased as the replacement amount of allulose increased, while gumminess and chewiness showed similar trends. As a result of the sensory evaluation, the overall acceptability for the substitute sample of 100% sugar and 10% allulose was the highest. The maximum substitution ratio of allulose for dacquoise is considered to be 10%.

In this study, the quality properties were compared by replacing allulose with a ratio of 0%-100% instead of sugar used in sponge cake. There was no significant difference in specific gravity, pH, and degree Brix of the dough according to the allulose content, but the brightness decreased and the redness, and yellowness increased as the allulose content increased. The volume of the sponge cake decreased as the content of allulose increased. Symmetry was uniform in the cakes replaced with allulose compared to 100% sugar. There was no significant difference in baking loss and moisture content. Hardness, gumminess and chewiness increased as the replacement rate of allulose increased, and adhesiveness was highest in 100% allulose. In the hedonic evaluation, 100% sugar and allulose 25% samples showed no difference, and the other samples were evaluated lower than the control. The maximum replacement ratio of allulose for sponge cake is considered to be 50%.

This research aims to investigate pudding with grain-added yogurt for its quality characteristics and viability during cold storage. The yogurt was fermented until its pH was 5.10±0.05 after inoculating the probiotic strain (Bifidobacterium lactis, BB-12) into the milk base containing grains. The yogurt was added to prepare probiotic puddings. During cold storage of the puddings at 4±1oC for 4 week, the quality characteristics (pH, acidity, texture) and the viability of BB-12 in pudding were determined and compared to control (only milk base). As a result, MR had a significantly lower pH and higher acidity than those of other samples. In texture properties, including hardness, gumminess, and chewiness, MSIR showed the significantly highest value, and the pudding with inulin was significantly higher than rice flour in all textures. For the viability of BB-12, pudding with milk was significantly lower than pudding containing milk and soymilk, suggesting that soymilk helps maintain viability. MR showed significantly higher viability than MI in the milk-based pudding, indicating that rice flour is more effective than inulin. Therefore, the addition of soymilk, inulin, and rice can maintain quality characteristics and viability of BB-12 in the pudding.

Saengcheonggukjang, known as Natto in Japan, is a soybean fermented food which is made from steamed soybean, Bacillus and water. Demand of Saengcheonggukjang has increased because it does not have much smell compared to Cheonggukjang. Seven varieties of Saengcheonggukjang were investigated and compared in terms of 100 seed weight, quality characteristics, hard seed rate, and water absorption rate in order to determine the suitability of Korean soybeans. In addition, each characteristic of Saengcheonggukjang was compared. ‘Hoseo’ and ‘Haewon’ showed low 100 seed weight with 8.41 g and 8.11 g, respectively. The water absorption rate was higher in ‘Hoseo’ and ‘Pungwon’ than in Japan varieties. The yield of Saengcheonggukjang was significantly different for each variety. No differences were observed in yield and hardness of Saengcheonggukjang with respect to the varieties and sowing date. ‘Haewon’ showed the highest amino nitrogen content with 575.0 mg%. Viscous material content did not appear to differ between varieties. These results suggested that ‘Hoseo’ and ‘Haewon’ can be considered as suitable candidates for yield and quality of Saengcheonggukjang compared to Japan varieties.

본 연구에서는 항산화 효능과 관능적 특성이 강화된 막걸리 제조를 위해 통단호박을 직접 찐 후 비율별로 첨가하여 막걸리를 제조하였다. 단호박 막걸리 제조를 위해 단호박을 쌀 중량의 5%, 10%, 20% 및 30%를 첨가하였으며 발효 및 담금 후 9일간 단호박 막걸리의 이화학적(pH, 총산 및 알코올), 미생물학적(유산균 및 효모수) 및 항산 화 활성을 조사하였다. pH의 경우 모든 실험군에서 발효 및 저장기간이 늘어날수록 점차 낮아졌으며 9일차에는 단호박 무첨가군인 대조군(3.27)에 비해 단호박 첨가군(3.28- 3.52)이 다소 높은 결과를 보였다. 총산도는 1일차(0.09- 0.55) 및 3일차(0.81-0.86)에 급격히 증가하였으며, 그 후 서서히 증가하여 9일차에는 단호박 첨가군에서 1.16-1.32의 결과를 보였다. 알코올 함량은 9일차에 대조군 0%가 4.59로 가장 낮았고 단호박 5-30% 첨가군에서 5.20-5.77% 로 단호박 첨가량이 많아질수록 알코올 함량이 높았다. 유산균수 측정의 경우 발효초반에 증가하는 양상을 보이다가 5일차부터 다소 감소하거나 유사하여 9일차에는 단호박 첨가 0-30% 첨가군에서 7.95-8.09 log CFU/g로 나타났으며, 효모수의 경우 발효가 진행될수록 증가와 감소를 다소 반복하였으며 9일차에는 7.68-7.99 log CFU/g으로 측정되었다. DPPH 및 ABTS 라디칼 소거능은 단호박 30% 첨가군에서 85.96 및 78.97%로 각각 측정되어 단호박 무첨가군의 DPPH (48.29%) 및 ABTS (62.12%) 결과와 비교 시 높은 항산화 활성도를 보였다. 따라서 추후 단호박 첨가에 따른 각종 비타민류, 무기질 및 β-carotene 등의 영양·기능성 성분의 분석과 더불어 소비자의 관능평가 등을 통해 항산화 기능이 강화된 단호박 막걸리의 실용화를 위한 구체적인 연구개발의 확대가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

This study aimed to investigate the antioxidant activities and quality characteristics of jelly added with Orostachys japonicus juice. The moisture content and the soluble solids content of the jelly samples decreased significantly with increasing content of O. japonicus. The pH was highest in the control samples, and the pH significantly decreased with the addition of increasing amounts of O. japonicus. In terms of the chromaticity measurements, the lightness value and redness value was highest in the control sample, and it decreased as the amount of added O. japonicus increased, whereas the yellowness value increased with increasing levels of O. japonicus added. The gumminess and chewiness of the jelly increased with the addition of increasing amounts of O. japonicus. On the other hand, the cohesiveness and adhesiveness of the jelly did not show statistically significant changes. The total polyphenol and DPPH radical scavenging activities of the jelly with 100% O. japonicus added were significantly higher than those of the jelly with 0% O. japonicus added. Regarding the sensory evaluation, the sample with 75% O. japonicus added was perceived to have the best color, flavor, O. japonicus flavor, chewiness, and overall preference.

This study was conducted to evaluate the characteristics of bread and the rheology of flour dough containing chlorella powder(0%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, 2.0% and 2.5%). In the farinograph test, the addition of chlorella powder changed water absorption, development time and mixing tolerance index for making bread. As the amount of chlorella powder increased, the water absorption increased, mixing tolerance index and the development time decreased. In the extensograph test, the degree of extension and resistance was decreased with increasing of chlorella powder content. In the amylograph test, the maximum viscosity was slightly decreased with increasing of chlorella powder contents. The colors of L value in bread crumb was significantly decreased as the chlorella powder addition. After fermentation treatment, The dough with 2.5% chlorella powder showed the lowest dough raising power compared to the other doughs. The addition of the chlorella powder had significant effect on bread texture. The bread consisting of 0.5% chlorella powder showed the highest volume of loaf and specific volume. Therefore, high quality of bread can be achieved by adding chlorella powder.

This study examined the quality characteristics of Makgeolli to investigate the availability of Korean sweet potato cultivars as alcoholic beverages. The following sweet potato varieties were used: Gogunmi, Daeyumi, Shingunmi, Shinyulmi, Shincheonmi, Jinyulmi, Jinhongmi, Jeungmi and Pungwonmi; their alcohol contents ranged from 12.20% to 14.20%, with the lowest value in Makgeolli made with Jeungmi and the highest value in Makgeolli made with Jinhongmi. The DPPH radical scavenging activity was in the range of 37.51~77.02%, with the lowest value in Makgeolli made with rice (control) and the highest value in Makgeolli made with Gogunmi. As a result of analyzing the aroma component of sweet potato Makgeolli, 27 kinds of aroma components were detected, and six kinds of alcohols, 13 kinds of esters, four kinds of acids, and four kinds of other compounds were found. Regarding the number of aroma compounds, Makgeolli made with Shinyulmi showed the lowest number with 14 kinds, while Makgeolli made with Pungwonmi showed the highest number with 27 kinds.

This study was carried out to investigate the changes of the microbiological contamination levels, pH, acidity, solid contents, total phenol contents, and color difference of cold-brew coffee products during 4 weeks at room and cold temperatures. The 17 sample coffees were purchased from regional cafes in Jeonju. Each coffee was self-blended by the cafes. Esherichia coli was not detected in all the samples, but bacteria were detected in 1 sample and yeast and molds were detected in 4 samples. Of the samples stored at room temperature (25oC) after 4 weeks, general bacteria were detected in 4 samples (3.0×101 cfu/ml-1.7×103 cfu/ml), and yeast and molds were detected in 11 samples (1.3×101 cfu/ml - 3.1×105 cfu/ml). In the case of the samples stored at cold temperature (4oC), general bacteria were detected in 3 samples, and yeast and molds were detected in 6 samples although the level of contamination was lower than that at room temperature. pH and acidity decreased during the storage period, but the total phenol content did not change. In the case of chromaticity, redness and yellowness tended to decrease.

The purpose of this study was to prepare bread added with sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides L.) berry powder (SBBP) (1, 3, and 5%) using a straight dough method. The quality and antioxidant characteristics of the bread were analyzed. The results indicated that the pH value and dough raising power of the dough decreased and the moisture content of the bread added with SBBP increased compared to that without the SBBP. The crust color of the bread did not change significantly. However, the crumb lightness value decreased and the redness and yellowness value increased respectively to the concentration of the SBBP. The texture measurement indicated that the hardness, gumminess, and chewiness of the bread increased with the addition of the SBBP. The total polyphenol content of the bread supplemented with the SBBP was increased (4.60~16.14 mg GAE/g) compare to the control (1.67 mg GAE/g). Dose-dependent, significant-high DPPH (26.86%) and ABTS (42.52%) radical scavenging activities were observed in the bread with the addition of the SBBP up to 5%. Based on these results, the optimum amount of the SBBP to add for baking bread would be 3% and the SBBP could be considered a functional agent.

This study examined the quality characteristics of chicken breast emulsion-type sausages manufactured with different contents of Zanthoxylumschinifolium (Z.S.) powder (0, 1, 2 and 3%). The changes to the samples upon inclusion of Z.S. powder were monitored by measuring the proximate composition, pH, color, cooking yield, viscosity, texture profile analysis and protein solubility. The sausages manufactured with increasing amounts of Z.S. powder showed a decrease significantly in fat content (p<0.05), whereas the ash content increased. The pH of the cooked samples also decreased significantly with the increasing content of Z.S. powder (p<0.05). Before and after cooked lightness significantly decreased as the Z.S. powder content increased (p<0.05). The redness of the cooked samples also increased significantly with an increasing amount of Z.S. powder (p<0.05). Samples that contained 2% and 3% of Z.S. powder resulted in a significantly larger cooking yield compared to the control sample and the one containing 1% of Z.S. powder (p<0.05). The viscosity of the uncooked samples also increased with increasing amount of Z.S. powder. Furthermore, the samples containing 3% of Z.S. powder showed significantly lower levels of hardness and springiness than the control sample (p<0.05). In addition, the sample with 3% of Z.S. powder contained showed significantly higher total protein and myofibrillar protein levels than the other samples (p<0.05). Overall, the 3% of Z.S. powder chicken breast emulsion-type sausage performed well in most quality characteristic categories, and this formulation would be suitable for use in food manufacturing.
