The effect of change in exchange rates on an economy is very important, especially, to a small open economy like South Korea. I explore whether Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) have positive influences on exchange rate-pass through import price of import market for fishery products in South Korea. Competition among FTA partners is enhanced after FTAs are effective. I expect that the extent to which are exchange rate pass-through (hereafter, ERPT) into import price of fishery products (in terms of Korea currency) would be reduced since the import market for fishery products in South Korea is an oligopolistic market. Specifically, I　investigate two research questions with six South Korea’s FTA partners─Norway, Thailand, Peru, U.S., China and Vietnam. First, whether the extent to which are exchange rate pass-through into import price of fishery products from six FTA partners would decrase in the post-FTA era; seconds, the size of reduction has a negative relation with the size of their market share in the import market for fishery products in South Korea if it decreases. The empirical results indicate that the degree of ERPT into import price from other FTA partners than Norway has been reduced after FTA, statistically and significantly; however, I do not find the evidence that the size of reduction is related to their market share. The findings in this study imply that FTAs have negative effects on producers’ economic welfare in South Korea’s fishery industry by reducing the extent to which are exchange rate pass-through as well as reducing tariff barriers.

Ochratoxin A, which is frequently detected in cereals and infant diets worldwidely, is a mycotoxin to damage mainly the kidney and liver. Because ochratoxin A is highly thermostable compound. it is necessary to study ways of reducing level of ochratoxin A by controling processing steps. However, food processes, including extrusion, expansion, roasting, and steam cooking, which are used in order to mitigate the contents of ochratoxin A, are known to produce polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, which are generated from radicals decomposed by pyrolysis. Therefore, this study analyzed the levels of 4 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, benz (a) anthracene, chrysene, benzo (b) fluoranthene and benzo (a) pyrene in rice-based products made in high pressure and heating process. Rice samples were finely ground, and homogenized samples were alkaline treatement with 1 M KOH/EtOH and extracted with liquid-liquid extraction method using n-hexane. The extracted solution was pretreated with a silica cartridge. The purified solution was dried with nitrogen gas and dissolved in 1 mL of dichloromethane and injected into GC/MSD. We had overall recoveries for 4 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons spiked into rice samples ranging from 92.8 to 110.2%. The limit of quantitations of benz (a) anthracene, chrysene, benzo (b) fluoranthene and benzo (a) pyrene in rice-based product were 0.19 ng/g, 0.38 ng/g, 0.51 ng/g, and 0.31 ng/g, respectively. However, these 4 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in all processed rice samples were not detected.

The gastro-intestinal behaviors of foods influence their physiological functions in the human body. In-vitro methods simulating digestion processes have been extensively used to study the gastro-intestinal behaviors of foods due to more rapid and less expensive advantages. However, there is a lack of systematic studies to monitor the rheological changes of the food digesta in real time. In this study, rice-based products (specifically, extruded noodles) were prepared with three varieties of rice flours with different contents of amylose and their physicochemical properties and in-vitro digestibility were then characterized from a rheological point of view. The rice flours with higher amylose contents exhibited greater stability to dual mixing and higher degrees of starch gelatinization and retrogradation in thermo-mechanical measurements. In addition, greater elastic properties were clearly observed in the high amylose rice samples. The noodles which were produced with high amylose rice flour had a harder texture and reduced cooking loss. When the rheological changes of the extruded rice noodles were monitored in real time during the in-vitro starch digestion, the rice noodle digesta with higher amylose content exhibited greater viscosities throughout the simulated oral-gastric-intestinal digestion steps. The flow behavior of the rice noodle digesta consisted of the Power-law region and infinite shear plateau that were satisfactorily characterized by the Sisko model (R2>0.99). Hence, this study was conducted to investigate the physicochemical and in-vitro digestibility of extruded rice noodles with different amylose contents. These results can provide a promising opportunity for the food industry to research in-vitro digestion and physicochemical characteristics of rice-based products.

As the hangover relieving drink market has been expanded, there have been efforts to produce traditional drinks that can be easily taken through reducing material costs after finding materials with high alcohol-degrading activity from agricultural products and manufacturing drinks in a way to produce sikhye. Studies were made to know quality, the ability to relieve hangover and preference of drinks for which seven kinds of agricultural products, including shiitake mushrooms, were added in the forms of fresh juice, extracts and powder. Farm products showed the highest acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) when they were added in the form of powder before saccharification and shiitake mushrooms showed the highest enzyme activity when they were added in the form of powder. When added in the form of powder, people showed the lowest preference except when radish and hericium erinaceum were added. When bear puree was added to a mixture of powdered shiitake mushrooms, radish, bean sprouts and dadagi cucumber, enzyme activity got higher and people showed higher preference. An experiment of animal behaviors showed that the mixture had a high ability to relieve hangover in one or two hours after 10% or 40% alcohol was orally administered to mice due to long traveling distance of mice.

The objective of this study is to find the optimal cooking condition of rice for the cold chain as home meal replace-ment (HMR) products. Two types of rice varieties were cooked either on an electric rice cooker (ERC) or a super-heated steamer (SHS) with different concentrations of beef bone broth added before cooking. Cooked rice wasstored at 5oC for 3 days and the quality was analyzed by moisture content, color, reducing sugar content, textureprofile, and sensory evaluation. The results indicate that retrogradation of cooked rice prepared using SHS can bereduced during cold storage by the addition of beef bone broth. Also, the addition of more than 40% of beef bonebroth caused a deterioration in the quality of the cooked rice, and it appears that the addition of 10-20% of bonebroth is optimal for the overall quality of the cooked rice during cold storage.

In this study the effect of rice type and cooking methods on the quality of cooked rice during cold storage wereinvestigated to develop home meal replacement (HMR) products. The chemical and physical properties and sensoryquality of rice were studied by rice type (Oh-dae-mi, Baek-jin-ju S., and Indica) and cooking methods (electric ricecooker and super heated steamer). Cooked rice was stored at 5oC for 3 days and the moisture content, color, reduc-ing sugar content, texture profile, and sensory evaluation were analyzed. The results show that rice type Baek-jin-ju S. has the highest moisture content and that color and textural properties are maintained during storage. Ricecooked with an electric rice cooker has higher moisture content and better color properties; however, rice cookedwith a super heated steamer shows higher reduced sugar content with a softer texture. The selection of Baek-jin-juS. and cooking with a super heated steamer have a positive effect on the quality of rice during cold storage.

쌀 가공식품 부산물의 효소 처리로 인한 단백질과 식이섬유, 색도의 차이는 시료에 따라 각각 다르게 나타났다. Gravimetric method와 Kjeldahl method 간에 단백질 함량의 차이가 조금씩 있는 것으로 확인 되었지만, 전체적으로 두 값의 패턴이 같은 것으로 보아 이 두 가지 단백질 측정 방법간에 유의성이 존재한다고 판단하였고, 두 값의 비교를 통해 단백질 함량의 변화를 더욱 자세히 비교 할 수 있었다. 주박의 경우 다른 효소보다 Termamyl이 단백질 함량을 높이는데 영향이 큰 것으로 나타났고, 효소를 혼합하였을 때 그 시너지 효과가 두드러졌다. 특히 세가지 효소를 모두 혼합하였을 경우 가장 좋은 시너지 효과를 나타냈다. 그러나 식이섬유의 경우 Termamyl 단일효소를 처리했을 경우가 식이섬유 함량을 높이는 데 가장 효과적인 것을 확인 할 수 있었으며, 탈지미강의 경우 역시 Termamyl이 가장 효율 적으로 나타났고 주박과 비슷한 패턴을 보여, 역시 혼합효소로 시너지 효과를 확인 할 수 있었다. 그러나 식이섬유 함량의 경우, Termamyl 처리를 했을 때 약한 증가 경향을 보인 반면, 다른 효소 처리로 인한 식이섬유 함량은 감소하는 경향을 나타냈다. 시럽박의 경우 초기 단백질 함량이 높아서 단백질 함량이 크게 증가하지 않았다. 최적의 효소라고 평가할 만한 효소를 찾을 수 없었고, 시너지 효과 역시 나타나지 않았다. 그러나 식이섬유의 경우 효소 처리로 인해 상당량이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 Viscozyme 처리로 인한 식이섬유 함량은 큰 증가를 보였으나, 시너지 효과는 크게 나타나지 않았다.

본 연구는 한약재 부산물을 조사료 대체 사료원으로서 사용하였을 때 발효기간에 따른 in vitro 발효 특 성을 조사하고자 수행되었다. 처리구는 대조구 (control), 한약재 부산물 20%와 볏짚 80% (T1), 한약재 부산물 40%와 볏짚 60% (T2), 한약재 부산물 50%와 볏짚 50% (T3), 그리고 한약재 부산물 100%와 볏짚 0% (T4)이었으며 3, 6, 9, 12, 24, 36, 48, 및 72h 동안 처리당 3반복으로 in vitro 발효실험을 실 시하였다. 가스 발생량과 건물소화율은 시간이 지남에 따라, 그리고 한약재 부산물의 양이 많아짐에 따라 서 증가하는 경향이었으며, 특히 72시간에 T4가 가장 높았다 (P<0.05). 메탄 발생량 또한 비슷한 결과 로서 시간이 경과하고 한약재 부산물의 양이 많아짐에 따라 지속적으로 증가하였다 (P<0.05). pH는 5.39~6.80의 범위로 첨가량이 높아질 수록 유의적으로 낮아졌다 (P<0.05). 미생물 성장량은 발효 후 시 간이 경과함에 따라서 점차적으로 증가하였고, 첨가구가 control 보다 높았다 (P<0.05). CMCase, Xylanase 및 amylase 효소 활력은 처리구별 특정한 패턴이나 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 본 실험의 결과는 한약재 부산물이 가스발생량, 미생물성장량 및 건물소화율을 높이고 pH를 감소시키는 등의 효과를 주어 반추위 발효의 안정화 및 향상을 꾀할 수 있고, 효소 활력을 높임으로써 사료의 이용효율을 향상시킬 수 있다는 가능성을 보여 주었다

This study aimed to compare the quality characteristics of developed rice Jochung (E) with those of commercial-rice Jochung (A, B, C, and D). The total soluble solid, reducing sugar, and dextrose equivalent of developed rice Jochung were 80 °Brix, 44.53%, and 56.94%, respectively. The pH and titrable acidity were 6.25 and 0.19%, respectively. The color difference value (ΔE) of developed rice Jochung was 74.42, which was significantly lower than the other samples investigated. The light transmittance and total polyphenol contents of developed rice Jochung were 56.4%T and 108.23 mg GAE/100 g, respectively. The adhesiveness values of various commercial-rice Jochung products were 29.0~66.0 sec, while that of developed-rice Jochung was 61 sec, showing good textural properties for use in manufacturing Hangwa, a Korean traditional cookie. The electron-donating values of various rice Jochung were 20.4~50.3%, among which the developed-rice Jochung showed the highest value. The reducing powers of various rice Jochung products were 0.44~0.72, while that of the developed product was 0.72, which was significantly higher than the other values. Sensory evaluation revealed that the color scores of developed- and commercial-rice Jochung products were 6.70~6.80. Flavor scores of rice Jochung products ranged from 6.00 to 7.00. Taste and mouth feeling scores of developed-rice Jochung did not significantly differ from those of commercial Jochung products. Compared to commercial-rice Jochung products, developed-rice Jochung made with malt extract exhibited high polyphenols content. However, there were no significant differences in the overall acceptability scores between commercial-rice Jochung products and the developed product. The developed-rice Jochung analyzed in this study may be useful as a traditional sweetener for various Hangwa products as a substitute for corn syrup or Jochung.

The purpose of this study was to develop a supplemental healthy food that can help prevent high blood pressure-related diseases caused due to the excessive consumption of sodium in salt. This was achieved by using ion-displacement techniques to produce mineral salt with lower sodium content by using fermented brown rice by-products rich in minerals. Mineral salt containing 2019.2 mg/100 g of potassium, 678.5 mg/100 g of magnesium, 48.7 mg/100 g of calcium, and 19.5 mg/100 g of sodium was obtained by fermenting brown rice by-products to create a culture medium for the mineral salt. Mineral salt containing 1769.7 mg/100 g of potassium, 573.6 mg/100 g of magnesium, 35.3 mg/100 g of calcium, and 19.5 mg/100 g of sodium was obtained by filtering and refining the by-product extract of fermented brown rice. The results showed that when the stream velocity of the instrument used for electrolysis was 200 mL/min and the current and the concentration of the reactive liquid in the purified water chamber were higher, the effect of electrolysis was greater. Ion hot water extraction of the fermented brown rice by-products improved by up to 95% and was collected as purified water within 90 min of the reaction time. Chloride ions with pH 7.4 were produced by mixing sodium hydroxide in a purified saline water chamber with electro-analyzed water. The salt produced in this study contained low sodium, 5.7~30%, as compared to 40% sodium content of the normal salt.

Recently, the increased consumption of mixed-grain flour products have led to improved human health in busy modern life. For this reason, the verification of commercial food authenticity is one of important subjects. The development of DNA techniques such as real-time PCR has led to the increasing efficiency of illegal food product detection. Here, we have developed a comprehensive method for detecting the grain flour of various rice cultivars in commercial food products derived from different plant species. In the genetic variation analysis of different protein coding genes on various chloroplast genomes, we found the high numbers of segregating sites in rpoB and rpoC2 more than in other genes. Thus, we have attempted to develop chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) markers, which were Os_m_rpoB in rpoB, and Os_m1_rpoC2 and Os_m2_rpoC2 in rpoC2. To assess the applicability of three cpDNA markers, we have identified the appropriate statistical measurements of each marker in various mixed-grain flour samples derived from rice cultivars and different plant species by real-time PCR, In addition, the three cpDNA markers successfully applied for detecting of nonexistent rice flour in different commercial food products.

The use of agricultural by-products as alternative nutrient sources in crop production had gained popularity in order to reducing the rate of chemical fertilizer application in the field. This study was conducted to determine whether the application of rice milling by-products treated with yeast inoculants could substitute, or reduce the rate of chemical fertilizer application. The results of agronomic measurements showed that the effect of incorporated materials was not immediate, as compared to 100% chemical fertilizer application. However, grain yield and quality was either the same or greater than 100% chemical fertilizer application. It was found out that expanded rice hull (treated with yeast or not) could reduce the rate of applying chemical fertilizers by half. Also, yeast treatment was only favorable only to expanded rice hull and not with rice bran, and was already found to be a potential material in reducing chemical fertilizer application in rice production.
