Soluble methyl-hesperidin (MH) powder was prepared from crude MH, and was investigated on the stabilization to sunlight of natural coloring matter. Soluble MH powder was added to riboflavin, bixin, and paprika oleoresin solutions at concentration of 0.1 or 0.2%(w/w), and the absorbance of respective solutions was analyzed by spectrophotometer after exposing to sunlight for $10{\sim}24$ hr. While coloring matter solutions without MH was faded completely with lapse of time, addition of MH retarded to fade natural coloring matters. According as amount of MH added increased, MH showed more excellent stabilizing effect on the coloring matters. Especially, vitamin C with soluble MH showed remarkable synergistic effect in paprika oleoresin solution during the exposure to sunlight for 8 hr. Consequently, it was found that MH plays a role as excellent stabilizer of natural coloring matters to ultraviolet of sunlight.

The purpose of study was to develop new dental plaque disclosants which could replace erythrosine. Three food coloring agents(Red No.40, Blue No.1, and Mixed Green), erythrosine and fluorescein were tested for their color difference, antibacterial property, and biocompatibility. Color difference of Red No.40 was greater than that of erythrosine as concentration of solution increased. Color differences of Blue No.1 and Mixed Green were smaller than that of red dyes. Erythrosine showed obvious antibacterial property, but food coloring agents showed almost no antibacterial property. The taste and sensation of erythrosine was the worst, and the taste of Red No.40 and the sensation of Mixed Green were the most tolerable. Erythrosine stained dental plaque and oral soft tissue most deeply and long, and Blue No.1 was the next in the depth and longevity of stain.

In order to find out the relationship between contained water and coloring rate of thiamine monosalts in preparations, three kinds of thiamine monorhodanate, -monoiodide, -monobromide were manufactured and investigated as powders, granules and compressed tablets, respectively. Apparent coloring rate constants and solubility in accordance with temperature changes were measured. Nature of contained water and coloration of thiamine monosalts in preparations was examined in detail. It was thereby found that if water attached in a free state, coloration occured whose degree was approximately proportional to the quantity of such water, and a linear relation was found to hold between the logarithm of the apparent coloring rate constants and the reciprocal of the absolute temperature in granules and compressed tablets.

In this study, Seolgi Tteok was made in order to increase consumption of Geuk, which possesses numerous nutritional advantages, and its optimum content as a new food coloring for rice cake was determined. Quality characteristics and quantitative description analysis (QDA) of Seolgi Tteok, in which Geuk was added at 0, 4, 8, and 12%, was conducted. Consumer acceptability test was also conducted. As the amount of added Geuk increased, moisture content of Seolgi Tteok increased as well. Brightness (L-value) was the highest in the control group, and more Geuk resulted in higher values of red index (a-value) and yellow index (b-value), which corresponded to the results of the sensory evaluation. As result of the mechanical texture measurement, only adhesiveness and resilience show a significant difference. As a result of the QDA, 17 sensory characteristic terms were assessed. Among them, only 13 showed a significant difference. Among the different sensory characteristics, almost all of them except for taste characteristics were significantly influenced by the amount of Geuk. The aroma and taste of Geuk were not largely influenced. It can be suggested that Geuk is not a factor that strongly influences flavor. In conclusion, Geuk does not have a strong influence on the taste or aroma of Seolgi Tteok but does on color characteristics. It can be suggested that Geuk is qualified as a coloring material for food, and the reasonable addition amount is 8%. As a result of this research, Geuk can be considered as a coloring material for other types of rice cake, traditional Korean sweets, and even confectioneries as well as for Seolgi Tteok. This implies that Geuk can be utilized to develop various new products as a coloring material with abundant nutritional content, which will contribute to the promotion of Geuk consumption.

Carotene, xanthophyll, carotenoid anthocyan, phycopyrine, chlorophyll, and monascus pigments are used as natural coloring agents since they are more stable to human body than synthetic coloring agents. Among them, monascus pigments are a natural red pigment produced by the Monascus purpureus. For the development of edible paint using natural pigment, Monascus purpureus strain was cultured at a temperature of $35^{\circ}C$ for 15 days on a PDYA plate and liquid medium to produce a red pigment. In addition, a large amount of the red pigment was extracted from Hongkuk Koji in parallel with water extraction and ultrasonic wave extraction. At this time, the yield of ultrasonic extract was 2~4 times higher. Thus, Monascus purpureus strains, etc. were prepared by freeze-drying powder. In conclusion, natural paints made with red pigments have enabled the development of been edible paints that can be used as eco-friendly materials with good viscosity, enhanced spread ability and coloration.

This study had three major purpose: 1) to examine the relationship between coloring factor of Hors d'oeuvre and preference of dishes. 2) to examine the relationship between coloring factor of Hors d'oeuvre and selection of dishes. 3) to examine the relationship between coloring factor of Hors d'oeuvre and customer satisfaction. Questionnaires for the study were distributed 300 subjects in deluxe class hotels in Seoul. Among 300 questionnaires, 280 subjects were collected and utilized for analysis. In HY hotel, 35 subjects of customers, 24 subjects of cooks, and 32 subjects of service personnels were collected. In R hotel, 29 subjects of customers, 32 subjects of cooks, and 32 subjects of service personnels were collected. In H hotel, 29 subjects of customers, 34 subjects of cooks, and 33 subjects of service personnels were collected. Analysis ways used for this study were frequency analysis, factor analysis, reliability analysis, ANOVA, To accomplished the objective 1), ANOVA was utilized. To accomplished the objective 2) and 3), regression analysis was unitized. The findings from this study were as follows. First it was found that selection of dishes was affected by coloring factory of Hors d'oeuvre. Secondly, it was found that customer satisfaction was affected by coloring factor of Hors d'oeuvre. Consequently, development of Hors d'oeuvre by harmonizing of various colorings should be activated to raise level of preference of dishes. Also, in regard to level of satisfaction, harmony of various colorings should be required.

Center for Food Standard Evaluation, Korea Food and Drug AdministrationThis study was performed to compare analytical methods of nine synthetic food colors and six food color lakes in Korea, Japan, Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee of Food Additives (JECFA), and USA. The experimental protocol of this study consists of three parts: titration method with titanium chloride, gravimetric and spectrophotometric method. To measure the total contents of food colors, Korea and Japan used titration method with titanium chloride, USA used the average value of titration method with titanium chloride equipped with Kipp generator and spectrophotometric method. Also, JECFA used titration method with titanium chloride equipped with KiPP generator. However, All the low organizations used gravimetric method to measure the total content of coloring matter on Food Red No.3. Although all organizations use various methods for analysis of coloring matters, total contents of coloring matter on food colors tested fell into the standard showing $85.08-96.40\%$ in synthetic food colors and $10.00-36.86\%$ in food color lakes.

This study was carried out to understand the activity of ${\alpha}$-chymotrypsin, a proteolytic enzyme, to a oligopeptide in the presence of various coloring food additives. 1. The melting point of synthetic oligopeptide, Asp-Arg-Val-Tyr-Ile-His-Pro-D-Ala, ((8-D-Ala) angiotensin Ⅱ) was 210∼$212^{\circ}C$. Chemical formula and molecular weight were $C_{44}H_{67}N_{13}O_{12}{\cdot}2CH_3COOH{\cdot}H_2O$ and 970.08, respectively. 2.The amino acid rations by acid hydrolysis were Asp : 1.01, Arg : 1.03, Val : 1.00, Tyr :40.94, Ile : 1.00, His : 1.05, Pro : 1.04, D-Ala : 1.03. 3. ${\alpha}$-Chymotrypsin cleaved the oligopeptide bond between tyrosine and isoleucine (Tyr-Ile). 4. The addition of food coloring additives as determined by paper chromatogram, did not influence the inhibitory activity of ${\alpha}$-chymotrypsin on oligopeptide, (8-D-Ala) angiotensin II.
