This study was investigated the difference in the quality characteristics of the fermented soybean roasted with different conditions for making chungyukjang. Roasted condition of soybean was decided by pre-test, which was on 140oC for 21 min, 180oC 9.5 min, and 220oC 6 min. Fermented soybean with different roasted condition and conventionally made cheonggukjang were measured for proximate composition, color, pH, amino nitrogen, ammonia nitrogen, free sugar and amino acids. The lightness and yellowness of soybean fermented by conventional method was higher than those of the fermented soybean with roasted soybean. The contents of free sugar of fermented soybean roasted on 220oC for 6 min (FS220) was the highest among the group and followed by fermented soybean roasted on 180oC for 9.5 min (FS180), 140oC 21 min (FS140) and conventional cheonggukjang (FS0). The contents of total free amino acid was highest on fermented soybean roasted on 140oC for 21 min (FS140) and followed by fermented soybean roasted on 180oC for 9.5 min (FS180), 220oC 6 min (FS220) and conventional cheonggukjang (FS0).

The effect of roasting intensity and extraction time of coffee bean on the antioxidant activity of roasted ground coffee extract was investigated. Coffee was roasted at 185oC using a rotating fluidized bed roaster for 5.17 (medium roasting) and 6.00 (dark roasting) min, respectively. Both roasted coffees were extracted in 90oC hot water according to the increased extraction time. Until 20 min, an increase in extraction time significantly increased soluble solute, caffeine, brown color, and phenolic compound. The soluble solid and caffeine contents showed no significant difference among medium- and dark-roasted coffee extracts. The brown color intensity and free radical scavenging activity of dark-roasted coffee extract were higher than those of medium-roasted coffee. On the contrary, the total phenolic content of dark-roasted coffee extract was lower than that of medium-roasted coffee. The free radical scavenging activity of coffee extracts showed a positive correlation with brown color intensity, as well as total phenolic content.

Oat! It entices us with its awesome components such as β-glucan and unsaturated fatty acid. This study was performed to investigate the changes of flour size distribution, pH, moisture content, Hunter color value, polyphenol, protein, flavonoid, lipid rancidity, β-glucan content and sensory evaluation of covered and naked oat flour that heated at 80, 120, 160 and 200℃. It was roasted for 5min to begin with, followed by complete cool, and for 10min at the second time. There was some difference in flour size distribution before and after of roasting. With increasing temperature, oat was more broken finely. For the Hunter b value representing the blackish color of the surface, after oats went through a roasting process, one went through until 160℃ showed same color statistically. Moisture content declined more as the roasting temperature became higher. As for pH, its range of variation was small from 6.2 to 6.6. While a polyphenol was on the reduction, protein was on the rise by the increase of temperature. In total, a flavonoid was declined at 80℃ but increased from 120 until 200℃ compared to control. A MAD (malonaldehyde) related with lipid acidification was statistically identical until 160℃ and sharply risen at 200℃. Roasting conditions had significant effect on β-glucan content. A covered oat’s β-glucan was declined as opposite to naked oat’s β-glucan with temperature being increased. Variation in sensory evaluation such as color, taste, smell and preference was observed. There is no statistically significant difference in specimens heated at 160℃ and 200℃ of covered and naked oat in sensory evaluation(p<5%). All things considered including MDA, β-glucan content and sensory evaluation, a optimum temperature for roasting oat to develop processed goods was verified as about 160℃.

마늘종의 통상적인 조리방법 중 하나인 볶음 조리시 처리 시간(0, 1, 3, 5, 7분)을 달리하여 물리적인 특성 및 주요 성분의 함량 변화를 비교, 분석하였다. 마늘종의 볶음 처리시 색의 변화가 없는 시간은 3 분 정도이며 5분까지는 고유 색택을 크게 손상시키지 않았고, 조직 감은 볶음 시간이 길어짐에 따라 경 도, 탄력성, 씹힘성, 검성, 응집성 모두 생시료 대비 유의적으로 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 볶음 처리에 따른 마늘종의 성분 중 총 페놀화합물의 함량은 볶음 시간이 길어질수록 증가하였고, flavonoid 함량은 볶음 처리 3분까지는 증가하지만, 그 이후부터는 감소하는 경향을 보였으며 총당도 유사한 경향이었다. Vitamin C, chlorophyll, pyruvate 및 thiosulfinate는 볶음 시간이 길어질수록 함량이 감소하였다. 마 늘종의 성분 변화를 최소화하기 위해서는 단시간에 조리하는 것이 바람직한데, 이상의 결과를 종합하여 볼 때 3분 이내로 볶음 처리하는 것이 마늘종의 물리적인 특성을 유지하면서도 주요성분을 섭취하기에 적정한 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 볶음 처리 후 여주의 총 phenolics, 총 flavonoids, 갈변물질(MRPs, maillard reaction products), 항산화 활성 및 α-glucosidase 저해활성을 비교하였다. 또한 alkaloids 유도체와 쓴맛 저감 효과를 평가하였다. 볶음 온도 및 시간이 증가함에 따라 볶음 처리된 여주는 총 phenolics, 총 flavonoids, MRPs, 항산화 활성 및 α-glucosidase 저해활성 역시 증가하였으나, alkaloid계 화합물 및 쓴맛은 감소하였다. 특히 200℃에서 15분 동안 볶은 여주는 총 phenolics, 총 flavonoids, MRPs, 항산화 활성 및 α-glucosidase 저해활성이 가장 높았고 alkaloid계 화합물 및 쓴맛은 가장 낮게 나타났다. 이 결과로부터 볶음 여주는 쓴맛이 저감되고 이들 추출물은 식품에서도 잠재적인 천연 항산화제로 사용할 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.

한방차의 roasting 온도를 80∼140℃ 범위로 하여 성분 변화를 분석한 결과, 온도의 상승에 따라 수분함량이 감소하고 일부 탄화가 발생하며 조 회분 함량이 소폭 상승하였고, 조 지방 및 조단백질 함량은 소폭 감소하였다. 한방차의 고형분 용출율은 0.15~0.32%(w/w)를 나타내었는데, roasting 온도가 상승할수록 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 처리온도가 80∼110℃구간에서는 큰 변화를 나타내지 않은 반면 110∼140℃구간에서는 고형분 용출율이 급격히 감소하였다. 온도가 상승할수록 용출율이 감소하는 것은 내부 조직이 치밀하여 상대적으로 용출이 어렵기 때문이다. 벤조피렌 함량은 0.29~0.51ppb으로 온도가 높을수록 B(α)P함량이 증가하였다. 처리온도와 원재료에 따라 B(α)P 함량에 차이가 발생하며, 내부온도는 약 200℃정도지만 roaster 표면의 실제 온도는 약 2000℃에 이르는데 표면과 접촉한 부분에서 B(α)P가 생성된다. B(α)P는 주로 음식을 조리, 가공할 때 식품의 주성분인 탄수화물, 단백질, 지방 등이 열분해 되어 생성되는 것으로 생각된다.

Grape seed tea (GST) was prepared by roasting grape seed at 150-190oC for 10-60 minutes and then soaking inwater at 100oC for 20 minutes. GSTs made with grape seed with an L value of 19.5-20.5 were the best in termsof color, flavor, and sensory test. GSTs prepared using roasted grape seeds had higher total phenolics and antioxi-dant activity than GST prepared from raw grape seed. Roasting times to reach an L value of 19.5-20.5 were over60 minutes at 160oC, 40-50 minutes at 170oC, 30-40 minutes at 180oC, and below 10 minutes at 190oC. In a sensorytest, the total preference increased depending on the degree of roasting. GSTs with the highest preference used grapeseed roasted at 170oC and 180oC for 30 minutes.

Roasting 온도를 80~140℃로 달리한 한방차의 성분 변화를 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 처리온도의 상승에 따라 수분함량이 감소하고, 일부 탄화가 발생하며 조회분 함량이 상대적으로 상승하는 소폭 변화가 있었고, 조단백질 및 조지방 함량은 거의 변화가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 벤조피렌 함량은 0.17~0.35ppb으로 처리온도가 상승할수록 B(α)P 함량이 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 이러한 결과를 볼 때, 처리온도와 원재료에 따라 B(α)P 함량에 차이가 발생한 것으로 나타났는데, roasting의 경우 실제 내부온도는 약 200℃내외에 그치지만 roaster 표면의 온도는 약 2,000℃에 이르기 때문에 이 표면과 직접 접촉한 부분에서 일부의 B(α)P가 생성된 것으로 판단된다. 한방차의 고형분용출율을 0.18~0.35%(w/w)를 나타내었는데, roasting 온도가 상승할수록 고형분용출율이 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 처리온도가 80~110℃처리구간에서는 큰 변화를 나타내지 않은 반면 110~140℃처리구간에서는 고형분용출율이 급격히 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 처리온도가 상승할수록 고형분용출율이 감소하는 것은 내부 조직이 치밀하여 상대적으로 용출이 어렵기 때문으로 생각된다.

This study was investigated the optimal time that enhanced the functional activities of mung beans for use of functional food resources. Mung beans were roasted according three levels of roasting time levels (10, 20 and 30 minutes) at 110℃ and then the physicochemical compositions were determined. The reducing sugar content was decreased with the increased roasting time. Moisture was decreased with increased roasting time, whereas, crude fat, crude ash, crude protein and carbohydrate were increased with prolonged roasting time. The highest contents of total phenol and flavonoid were shown at a roasting condition 110℃ for 30 minutes. The highest inhibitory activities of DPPH radical, ABTS radical and xanthine oxidase was the best at the condition of 110℃ for 30 min. From these results optimal roasting time of mung beans were 30 minutes for use of functional food resources.

Effects of roasting on vitamin E content, color, microstructure and moisture of peanuts, and vitamin E content in peanut oils prepared from the roasted peanuts were investigated. Runner-type peanuts were roasted at 140, 150, and 160ºC for 10-20 min. As roasting temperature and time increased, the CIELAB L* value of peanuts decreased while a* and b* values increased, resulting in formation of the golden brown color of roasted peanuts. Moisture ratio (M/Mo) and color b* value of peanuts roasted at 140 to 160ºC showed a correlation of b* = 21.61 (M/Mo)2 – 40.62 (M/Mo) + 34.12 (R2 = 0.9123). Overall changes in the tocopherol contents of peanuts and peanut oils were significantly affected by roasting temperature and time (p<0.05). Roasting at 140ºC caused a slight increase in the levels of tocopherols of peanuts over roasting time up to 20 min (p<0.05). There was no significant change in the tocopherol levels of peanuts during roasting at 150 ºC for 20 min (p>0.05). At 160ºC, the levels of tocopherols significantly decreased during the initial 10 min of roasting (p<0.05) while there was no extended loss after 10 min, resulting in about 5, 12, 20, and 10% losses of α-, β-, γ- and δ-T, respectively. After 20 min, total tocopherols decreased by 18%. However, tocopherol contents of pressed peanut oils significantly decreased at all roasting temperatures (p<0.05). After roasting peanuts at 160ºC for 20 min, about 84% of initial α-T in peanut oils was retained. α-T was the most stable to roasting while γ-T was the least. Swollen epidermal cells on the inner surface and broken cell walls of parenchyma tissue of peanut cotyledon were observed in peanuts after roasting at 160ºC for 15 min. Severe changes in microstructure of peanut by roasting would contribute to vitamin E stability because of exposure of oil droplets in peanuts to oxygen.

Froth flotation has been carried out in order to produce roasting-molybdenite concentrate from molybdenite ore in the Shin-yeomi mine. In our study, roasting-molybdenite (Mo 0.43%) from Shin-yeomi mine was recovered by varying the conditions of regrinding time, dosage of collector and alkalinity. Liberation and flotation efficiency more were effective at regrinding time of six minutes than at single grinding. Mo recovery curves increased considerably as dosage of kerosene increased, whereas Mo grade curves decreased gradually. The separation efficiency of molybdenite was effective when the dosage of collector (kerosene) was adjusted to 300 g/t. The molybdenite concentrate was agglomerated in the range of pH 5-7 and its separation efficiency increased to pH 9-10. The concentrate of 49.5% Mo grade (MoS2, 82.6%) with 81.5% recovery from Shin-yeomi molybdenite ores was obtained under conditions of 20% pulp concentration, 300 g/t kerosene 325 g/t frother (AF65), 2.5 kg/t depressant (Na2SiO3), pH 9-10 and four cleaning times. In the future, a trial run that can separate up to 50% Mo grade from Shin-yeomi molybdenite ores will be performed.
