The pine bark extract was added during the beer manufacturing process to develop a functional beer using natural plant materials. Pilsner beer was prepared by adding 0-0.125% to the wort. Immediately before fermentation, extracts were added with yeast cultured twice for 48 hr, and fermentation was carried out at 25°C for 5 d and storage was carried out at 2°C for 15 d. In the experiment, pH, reducing sugars, soluble solid contents, specific gravity, alcohol contents, chromaticity, total flavonoids, total polyphenols, DPPH, and yeast number were tested during fermentation and storage to characterize. The pH, reducing sugar, soluble solid contents, specific gravity, and alcohol contents of the six samples were not significantly different during fermentation and storage. However, yeast number, flavonoids, polyphenols, and DPPH were higher at higher pine bark extract contents. L value in chromaticity was the highest in control, and a value and b value were higher as the amount of extract added. In the sensory test, beer with 0.05% pine bark extract showed the best color, sweetness and aroma. Therefore, it was judged that it is desirable to prepare beer by adding 0.05% pine bark extract to pilsner beer.

In this study, the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of wet noodles added with doraji (Platycodon grandiflourm) powder at concentrations of 1%, 2%, 3%, and 4%, respectively, were investigated. The crude protein, crude fat, crude ash, crude fiber, and moisture contents of the dried doraji powder were 11.00%, 0.95%, 4.10%, 29.64%, and 6.21%, respectively. As the added amount of doraji powder increased, weight, volume, and water absorption of the wet noodles after cooking decreased. However, the turbidity of the soup increased. Color L values of wet and cooked noodles decreased, while a and b values increased by the addition of doraji powder. Texture measurement indicated that hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, and chewiness of the cooked noodles decreased by addition of doraji powder. The total polyphenol contents and DPPH radical scavenging activity in wet noodles added with doraji powder increased with increasing amounts of doraji powder. Finally, sensory evaluation of wet noodles added with doraji powder revealed that taste significantly decreased. However, flavor, color, texture, appearance, and overall acceptance scores for the 1% addition group ranked significantly higher than those of the other groups. In conclusion, these findings suggest that doraji powder could be used as functional food ingredients.

Cabbage is a biennial plant that is native to the shores of the Mediterranean. It contains dietary fiber, minerals, vitamin A, vitamin C, and anticarcinogenic phytochemicals. For the test, cabbage powder was added (5%, 10%, 20%, and 30%) to flour. The addition of cabbage powder significantly increased the specific gravity and viscosity of the batter and pH of both the batter and chiffon cake. The moisture in the chiffon cake increased due to the addition of cabbage powder. Also, the lightness of the cake significantly increased, whereas the redness and yellowness decreased as the amount of cabbage powder increased. The lightness and redness of crumbs from C0 were higher than other samples as each 59.48, －3.17, respectively. Except for the resilience, the hardness, gumminess, fracturability, and adhesiveness showed similar values in the C0, C5, and C10. In terms of consumer perception, the color, softness, flavor and overall consumer preference for the control chiffon cake were higher than C5, C10, C20, and C30. Nonetheless, for those that contain cabbage powder, C5 and C10 had relatively higher consumer preferences than C20 and C30. As a result, the optimum amount of cabbage powder for the chiffon cake would be from 5~10%.

Five-color bread was prepared by adding herb powder to Korean whole wheat triticum aestivum flour and the quality of baking was analyzed. The pH of the control bread was 6.15±0.12 while that of the whole wheat flour test group was 6.35±0.11, 6.29±0.12, 6.36±0.12, 6.19±0.11, and 6.01±0.13, respectively. The L value of the control bread was 67.78±0.03 and that of the whole wheat flour test group was 69.66±0.02, 60.01±0.12, 64.23±0.01, 63.34±0.01, and 61.64±0.04, respectively. The water activity was slightly increased at 2 days of storage due to the difference in water absorption and water retention. However, on the third day, the water transfer phenomenon in the bread showed water activity decrease in all wheat flour test groups. On the 1st day of the whole wheat flour test bread, the hardness values were 186.86±4.81, 165.89±3.73, 189.71±3.32, 198.38±2.19, and 184.29±3.40 g/cm2, respectively, and that of the control group was 138.84±3.72 g/cm2. The hardness of the control group and the whole wheat flour test group showed a significant difference. The internal structure of the bread in the whole wheat flour test group (100x, 500x) was not smoother than the control’s. The swelling degree of the starch particles and the cracking of the crumbs were confirmed by the adding of five-colored herbs to whole wheat flour.

This study investigated the effect of apios powder on the quality characteristics of sausages. The results were as follows: pH values of the sausages were not significantly different among the samples. The amount of moisture content in the sausages decreased with increasing amount of apios powder. Increase in apios powder increased the lightness (L) value but decreased redness (a) and yellowness (b) values. Increase in apios powder increased the hardness and chewiness of sausage but decreased the adhesiveness. Apios powder had no significant effect on gumminess and springiness of the sausages among all samples. Total phenolic compound content and DPPH radical scavenging activity of apios powder added sausage significantly increased with increasing apios powder. Total bacterial counts of apios powder added sausage increased in all the samples as storage period passes and after 4 weeks of storage, the more adding ratio of apios powder was increased, the total bacterial count decreased. In view of above results, apios powder was considered to be food material suitable not only for functionality but also for developing sausage product of which preservation property is improved. From the results, 100% apios powder can be used to make optimum level for production of sausage.

In this study, sulgidduk was prepared by addition of varying amount of black doraji extract and the physicochemical quality characteristics and antioxidant activities were investigated in order to explore the commercialization potential of sulgidduk supplemented with black doraji extract. The moisture content of sulgidduck supplemented with black doraji extract exhibited a significant decrease compared to the control. The pH of sulgidduck tended to decrease with increasing concentration of black doraji extract, and the reducing sugar content increased significantly from 0.33% to 3.51%. With an increase in the content of black doraji extract, a decrease in lightness (L*) and increase in redness (a*) was observed. A significant increase in the total polyphenol content and antioxidant activity (DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity) was observed with the addition of the black doraji extract. Consequently, it is proposed that black doraji extract can be used for recipe development and commercialization of various rice cakes.

The impact of storage temperature on the changes in acid value(AV), peroxide value(POV), color value, total phenolic content(TPC), and antioxidant activity in perilla seed(PS) was investigated. The PS was stored at 25, 35, and 45℃ for four weeks. An increase in the storage temperature resulted in significantly increased AV, POV, redness, and yellowness of the PS. Conversely, TPC, antioxidant activity, and redness of the PS significantly decreased. The changes in the AV and POV followed a first-order kinetic model, and the kinetic parameters such as k, t1/2, Q10 and Ea were calculated. The k and t1/2 values decreased with increasing storage temperature and the Q10 values for the AV and POV were 1.56, 1.91, 4.61, and 3.43, respectively. The Ea for the changes in of the AV and POV in the PS were 70.40, 102.63 kJ/mol, respectively. The half-life values for the AV and POV of the PS at 25℃ were 169.52 and 373.18 days, respectively, while the values at 45℃ for those, were 28.47 and 27.93 days, respectively.

To examine the possibility of ear mushroom (EM) as a source of natural vitamin D, the UVB (ultraviolet B) was treated according to sample drying status, drying methods before UVB treatment and harvest time. And then, vitamin D2 and ergosterol contents were investigated. According to the sample drying status, the vitamin D2 contents of fresh and freeze-dried EM (whole) increased to 4,634.4~4,780.9 μg/100 g D.W. (dry weight) under UVB dose 52.5~70.0 kJ/m2 and above 18,693.1 μg/100 g D.W. under above 105 kJ/m2, respectively. By drying methods before UVB treatment, vitamin D2 contents of EM powder (below 500 μm) that dried in the vinyl house and freeze-dryer increased to 4,886.2~5,132.9 μg/100 g D.W. under above 105 kJ/m2 and 17,103.7 μg/100 g D.W. under 70 kJ/m2, respectively. Ergosterol content decreased with increasing UVB dose in all experiments. According to the harvest time, vitamin D2 content under UVB dose 210 kJ/m2 showed marked difference and in order of June, July, August, October and April. As for the results, the optimum harvest time, drying method before UVB treatment, sample size, UVB dose for the EM contained high vitamin D2 content were June, freeze-drying, whole, and 105 kJ/m2, respectively.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics and antioxidant activity by collecting four times on six samples of Jeonbuk regional soybean pastes (Doenjang) traditionally prepared for this study. The water content of samples decreased according to progress of the aging period and the water content of the fourth sample collected was 42.40~59.64% (p<0.05). The salinity of the fourth Doenjang samples was 11.80~18.60%. The amino-type nitrogen content was 122.67~540.33 mg% immediately after the preparation of Doenjang in the Jeonbuk region and the content of the fourth collection samples increased from 251.49 to 982.36 mg% (p<0.05). The isoflavone glycosides decreased but daidzein, genistein and glycitein, which are aglycones, increased during aging periods. The total polyphenol content of the fourth collected samples was 11.99~19.27 mg GAE/g (p<0.05). The DPPH radical scavenging activity, ABTS radical scavenging activity and FARP of the fourth Doenjang samples were 51.88~81.21%, 84.14~90.32%, and 1.08~3.11 mg Trolox/g, respectively. As a result of quality analysis on Doenjang, the superiority of traditional Doenjang has been proven by the increase of amino nitrogen content and antioxidant activity according to the aging period. However, factor analysis on quality differences of regional Doenjang should be conducted to ensure standardization and quality improvement.

A survey on the indoor air quality of schools was conducted on a total of 10 schools in each location, such as industrial zones, roadside zones and clean zones of the Jeonbuk Province. Regardless of their location, 75% of the schools were not suitable to the environmental standard, and five schools were inadequate in both the first and the second half measurement results. Compared to the public facilities survey conducted by the Jeollabukdo Institute Health and Environment Research from 2008 to 2016, the concentration of CO2, total airborne bacteria (TAB), and PM10, with the exception of HCHO, was higher in school classrooms than in any other public facilities. The correlations between pollutants and test items demonstrated that total airborne bacteria (TAB) were significantly correlated with the degree of ventilation, and the PM10 was correlated with the cleaning status, respectively. Although the other test items of indoor air quality in the school were measured in the same way as the public facilities measurement methods, the PM10 is applied in accordance with the simplified method. In order to investigate the difference between the measurement methods, the results were compared at the same point at the same time. When comparing the concentrations of PM10, the gravimetric method, which is a public facilities measurement method, showed a significant difference from the light scattering method, which is a method of measuring PM10 in schools. By comparison, it was confirmed that the light scattering method was measured lower than the gravimetric method. The light scattering method is useful for confirming the change of the particulate matter, but it is considered difficult to judge the concentration of the particulate matter in the classroom by the instantaneous measurement because of the potential error caused by high humidity, etc. Secondary pollution ions were measured at 17.1% ~ 40.5% in the industrial zone schools, 7.4%~27.4% in the roadside zone schools and 8.1%~21.8% in the clean zone schools, The percentage of pollution ions were not clearly distinguished by location.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of gender on meat quality traits and sensory characteristics of pork loin. A total of 90 pork carcasses (180 days old, 45 barrows and 45 gilts, each gender group was consisted of fifteen 1+, 1 and 2 carcass grades) were selected and loin cuts were excised to investigate meat quality, electronic tongue measures and sensory panel test. There were significant differences in drip loss (1.66% vs 1.21%), released water (12.19% vs 10.68%) and cooking loss (23.67% vs 21.04%) between loins from barrow and gilt (p<0.05). However, no significant differences in meat color (CIE L* a* b*) and shear force were observed between gender groups (p>0.05). Umami and richness values of barrow were significantly higher than those of gilt, while barrow had significantly lower sourness value compared to gilt (p<0.05). On the sensory evaluation, barrow scored higher in flavor, juiciness and tenderness both, and as a result, barrow (5.51 points) also scored significantly higher than gilt (4.86 points). These results suggest that the umami intensity and sensory taste of barrow loin are superior to gilt loin due to its high water-holding capacity.

하이브리드 감압 열펌프 건조기의 효과를 파악하기 위하여 건조된 굴 제품을 8주간 저장하면서 일반 성분의 변화와 글리코겐 함량의 변화 등을 조사하였다. 일반세균의 변화는 18~19×103 CFU/g으로 기존제품의 27~30×103 CFU/g 보다 안전하였다. 주요 지방산의 함유량은 건조기에서 건조한 시료의 DHA 및 EPA 함량은 L1-1, L1-3 및 R2-2에서 각각 17.87% 및 14.80%, 17.46% 및 14.38%, 17.89% 및 14.99%이었고, 반면 CD-1은 각각 15.41% 및 13.20%로 약간의 차이를 보였다. 각 시료의 유리아미노산 함량에는 큰 차이를 보이지 않아 1325.2~1360.4 mg/100 g으로 나타났다. 그리고 선도를 나타내는 K 값에서는 하이브리드 건조기에서 건조한 시료가 저장기간 동안 매우 우수한 신선도를 나타낸 반면, 시판 굴의 시료에서는 34.0~42.1%로 나타났다.

우리나라에서 쌀(Rice, Orzya sativa L.)은 주식일 뿐만 아니라 다양한 가공식품원료로서 그의 가치가 높은 식품자원이다. 본 연구는 쌀맥주 제조 시 당화가 잘되는 쌀의 전 처리 방법에 대해 탐색하고자 수행되었다. 쌀을 미세분쇄, 수침처리, 볶음처리, 호화처리, 팽화처리 후 맥아와 함께 당화를 한 결과, 팽화미를 함유한 맥즙이 가장 높은 당도 (°Bx)를 나타내었다. 또한 액화 및 당화효소를 첨가하지 않고, 맥즙을 제조 시 쌀 30% 첨가했을 때 당도가 가장 높은 결과를 나타내었다. 볶은쌀과 팽화미를 이용하여 10, 20, 30% 첨가한 맥주를 제조한 결과 팽화미를 30% 첨가 한 맥즙의 가용성고형분이 15.4 °Bx로 가장 높고 당화도 잘되었으며, 맥주의 알코올함량이 5.0-5.4%로 볶은쌀 첨가 맥주에 비해 높았으며, 탁도가 없었고 쓴맛도 적은 결과를 보였다. 팽화처리는 쌀의 당화를 개선 할 수 있는 좋은 가공방법이라고 생각되며, 팽화미를 첨가한 쌀맥주 제조방법은 편리하고, 좋은 품질의 맥주를 생산 할 수 있는 방법 중의 하나라고 기대된다.

Mulberry leaves have been used in oriental medicine for their anti-pyretic and anti-inflammatory benefits. However, their bitter taste and characteristic odor limit their use in food. Thus, mulberry leaves were fermented using three species of lactic acid bacteria prevalent in kimchi. MLp, MLm, and MLs were obtained by means of fermenting mulberry leaves, using Lactobacillus plantarum, Leuconostoc mesenteroides, and Lactobacilllus sakei. Their palatability and biochemical properties were measured to determine the feasibility of using each as a food ingredient. Overall acceptability of yoghurt supplemented with fermented mulberry leaves (MLp, MLm, or MLs) was greater than that for yoghurt supplemented with dried mulberry leaves, while fermentation produced no negative effect on yoghurt palatability. In addition, the total polyphenol levels and radical scavenging effects of mulberry leaf extracts increased with fermentation, but total flavonoid content was not significantly changed. One potentially detrimental effect of fermentation is that α- glucosidase inhibitory potency was slightly decreased, proportional to the decrease in the active component 1-deoxynojirimycin. Despite this minor loss, the improved flavor of fermented mulberry leaves, together with its other beneficial health effects, is expected to render them useful as a food ingredient without lowering the sensory appeal of their target foods.

This study examined the quality characteristics of jelly prepared with green grape juice (GJ). The pH, oBrix value, color, texture, and sensory evaluation of the jelly were measured. The pH of the jelly significantly decreased with increasing amount of GJ over the range of 3.25-5.27. The oBrix value of the jelly showed a significantly higher result as the amount of GJ increased (p<0.001). Lightness (L) and redness (a) decreased with increasing amount of GJ, and yellowness (b) increased. In the texture measurement, the GJ-100 sample group with a high substitute rate of GJ showed high hardness, gumminess, and chewiness (p<0.001). The results of principal component analysis (PCA) showed that the sample groups with high GJ content were classified as having relatively strong yellowness, sweet aroma, metallic aroma, grassy aroma, sweetness, sourness, green grape skin taste, and astringency. In the acceptance test, the GJ-50 sample group was evaluated to be high in flavor (p<0.001) and overall acceptance (p<0.01). However, sample groups consisting of 50% or more GJ were evaluated to be significantly strong in terms of astringency. Therefore, further study needs to be conducted about improving astringency in the future.
