Molecular structure, physicochemical properties, and in vitro digestibility of starch from Korean rice cultivars for special uses (Baegjinju 1, Hanareum, Deuraechan, and Goami 4) were investigated. The starch from Baegjinju 1 had the lowest amylose content (9.7%) and Hanareum, Deuraechan, and Goami 4 had intermediate amylose (20-25%) contents. Baegjinju 1 had a lower proportion of short amylopectin branch chains than the other rice starches. Hanareum had the lowest relative crystallinity and the highest intensity ratio of $1047cm^{-1}/1022cm^{-1}$ among the rice starches. The starch from Goami 4 had a higher pasting temperature and lower gelatinization enthalpy than the other rice starches. Peak viscosity of rice starch from Baegjinju 1 was substantially higher than peak viscosity of other rice starches. Rice starch from Baegjinju 1 had significantly higher rapidly digestible starch content and lower resistant starch content than other rice starches, whereas there was no significant difference in resistant starch content among the rice starches.

Physicochemical properties of cross-linked rice starches were investigated. Swelling power of cross-linked rice starch increased at relatively lower temperature $(60^{\circ}C)$ than native rice starch $(70^{\circ}C)$. Cross-linked rice starch showed lower solubility $(1.7{\sim}6.1%)$ than native rice starch $(2.2{\sim}13.8%)$ and solubility is not significantly different with the amount of phosphorus oxychloride. Pasting temperature $(69.2{\sim}70.6^{\circ}C)$ and peak viscosity $(2,874{\sim}3,175\;cp)$ of cross-linked rice starch were lower than native starch $(71.6^{\circ}C,\;3,976\;cp)$, but holding strength $(2,177{\sim}2,708\;cp)$ and final viscosity $(3,424{\sim}3,826 \;cp)$ of cross-linked rice starch were higher than native starch (1,000 cp, 2,312 cp). DSC thermal transitions of cross-linked rice starches were shifted to a lower temperature than native rice starch but there was no significant difference in gelatinization enthalpy between native and cross-linked rice starches. X-ray diffraction pattern of both native and cross-linked rice starches showed typical A-type crystal indicating that cross-linking had not affected the crystalline region of starch.

Morphology, physicochemical properties, pasting properties in the presence of various anionic ions and aging of gels of Akibare (Japoica type) and Milyang 23 (Indica type) rice starch were studied, Both starches. were polygonal with length in the range of $3{\sim}6{\mu}m$. Starch granules of Akibare were somewhat smaller than those of Milyang 23. X-ray diffraction study demonstrated that peak shape and intensity were significantly different between the two starches. Akibare and Milyang 23 rice starch had amylose content of 18.5 and 19.5% and water binding capacity of 106 and 100%, respectively. Milyang 23 rice starch had a higher swelling power than Akibare starch. A relationship between percent solubility and swelling power implied that bonding forces within the granules of the both starches were different. The optical transmittance of 0.1% suspension of the two starches increased rapidly from $60^{\circ}C$. In the range of $60{\sim}90^{\circ}C$, the two starches showed a single gelatinization pattern. Amylograms of the two starches in the presence of various anionic ions showed that pasting temperature and peak temperature were progressively increased in the order of SCN-${SO_4}^=$. SCN- and I- ions increased the peak height of Akibare rice starch while only SCN- ion was effective for Milyang 23 rice starch. There were no differences in the rates of retrogradation of 45% gels of the two starches stored at $21^{\circ}C$.

The physicochemical properties of starch isolated from Yullmoo (Coix lachrymajobi var. mayuen stapf.) and Yeomjoo (Coix lachryma-jobi L.) were investigated. The average diameters of starch granules of Yullmoo and Yeomjoo were 12.0 microns, both of all, and the shape of these starch granules were hexagon, octagon and round. X-ray diffraction patterns of two samples were A-types and amylose contents of Yullmoo and Yeomjoo starch were 0% and 23%, respectively, iodine affinities of these were 0.08% and 4.2%, respectively, blue values and alkali numbers of these were 0.13 and 0.43, 2.4 and 7.2, and raising power of these were 280 and 20, respectively. Yullmoo starch had higher swelling power than Yeomjoo starch. The increase in optical transmittance of 0.1% suspensions of Yullmoo and Yeomjoo starches occurred at $60^{\circ}C$ and continued up to $75^{\circ}C$ for Yullmoo, $85^{\circ}C$ for Yeomjoo. Amylogram data on 5% of Yullmoo and Yeomjoo starch suspensions showed that gelatinization temperatures and maximum peak heights of Yullmoo and Yeomjoo were $68.5^{\circ}C\;and\;78^{\circ}C$, 920 and 310 B.U., respectiyely. Intrinsic viscosities of Yullmoo and Yeomjoo starches were 1.49 and 1.77, respectively, and interaction coefficients of the two starches were 0.57 and 0.56, respectively The extent of retrogradation determined at $2^{\circ}C$ showed that retrogradation occurred slowly with Yullmoo starch paste tut little with Yullmoo.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Ligularia fischeri powder on the functional and sensory characteristics of Mandupi. Various Mandupi samples were prepared with wheat flour by addition of different amounts of Ligularia fischeri powder, and instrumental characteristics and sensory evaluations were then investigated. Based on amylograph data, the composite of Ligularia fischeri powder and wheat flour samples increased its gelatinization temperatures depending on increasing of Ligularia fischeri powder content. However, viscosities at $95^{\circ}C$ and after 15 min, and maximum viscosity were reduced. In terms of Hunter's color values, L and a values decreased, while b value increased with the increase of Ligularia fischeri powder content. In addition, weight, volume and turbidity of Mandupis prepared with Ligularia fischeri powder were significantly greater than those of control. In terms of textural characteristics, springiness, chewiness and brittleness increased whereas adhesiveness decreased with the addition of Ligularia fischeri powder. Sensory evaluations showed that the overall preference of Mandupi with the addition of 3% Ligularia fischeri powder was greater than that of wheat flour only.

We investigated the quality characteristics of cookies prepared after addition of various concentrations of used coffee grounds (0%, 1%, 3%, and 5%, all w/w) as a substitute for flour. As coffee grounds concentration rose, decrease in the pH of cookie dough was evident. In terms the water-holding capacity of dough, cookies prepared 3% (w/w) coffee grounds yielded the highest value. With an increase in coffee grounds concentration, the color a value rose, but the L and b values fell. The gelatinization temperature became higher, but both peak viscosity and 15 min-height values declined. The spread and loss ratios decreased but the leavening rate rose significantly with elevation of coffee grounds concentration. The hardness of cookies rose but slightly, as coffee grounds concentration rose. Upon sensory evaluation of all of appearance, flavor, and overall preference, cookies prepared with addition of used coffee grounds were superior to those without grounds, whereas those prepared using 1%-3%(w/w) coffee grounds showed the highest overall acceptability. Thus cookies made using coffee grounds can be economically competitive. In addition, the ingredients of coffee powder and used coffee grounds were shown to be very similar, except that coffee grounds contain 15-fold less caffeine than dose coffee powder. As health concerns are popular today, the use of coffee grounds to manufacture processed food may be acceptable.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of noodles added with Rehmanniae Radix Preparata powder (RP). Wheat flour noodles were prepared with four levels of RP (0, 2.5, 5, and 7.5%). Moisture absorption of RP added noodles was somewhat greater than that of control. The turbidity of RP noodles decreased according to addition of RP. Hunter L (lightness) and b (yellowness) values of RP added noodles decreased according to addition of RP amount. Textural properties (measured by a texture analyzer), hardness, and springiness of RP noodles up to 5% were not significantly different from those of control. Antioxidant activity of RP added noodles increased according to addition of RP: $IC_{50}$ values of DPPH radical scavenging activity for raw noodles was 3.77 mg/g, whereas values of raw noodles with RP 2.5 and 7.5% were 3.69 mg/g and 2.47 mg/g, respectively. Polyphenol content increased according to addition of RP. Amylogram showed that RP addition increased initial gelatinization temperature, decreased breakdown, and reduced setback and consistency, which indicates protection against retrogradation. The sensory preference test revealed that cooked noodles with added 2.5% RP showed the highest scores for color, odor, taste, and overall preference. It is suggested that RP up to 2.5% could be substituted for wheat flour to improve noodle quality.

This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of ${\beta}$-glucan on rheological properties of flour dough and quality characteristics of white pan bread. Flour dough and white pan bread fortified with ${\beta}$-glucans at levels of 0%, 3%, 6% and 9% w/w. Farinograph and amylograph were analysed for the rheological properties. Loaf volume and specific loaf volume, moisture content, texture and sensory evaluation were also analysed for the quality characteristics. In the farinograph test, water absorption and dough development time of doughs increased with increasing ${\beta}$-glucan content. Especially, water absorption of dough fortified with 9% of ${\beta}$-glucan showed 13% higher than the control. However, the addition of ${\beta}$-glucan to the dough decreased stability. There were no significant differences on gelatinization temperature and maximum viscosity temperature regardless of ${\beta}$-glucan contents, but maximum viscosity increased with increasing ${\beta}$-glucan contents. Loaf volume and specific loaf volume of white pan bread decreased slightly with increasing ${\beta}$-glucan contents. Moisture content showed higher value in tests than that of the control, and the one added with 6% revealed highest moisture content. In terms of texture analysis, the one added with 6% of ${\beta}$-glucan revealed softer than the others. There were no differences between the groups added with 3% and with 6% on sensory evaluation, but the one added with 9% obtained lowest scores. As a result of this study, 6% of ${\beta}$-glucan is considered the resonable level to prepare healthy white pan bread. ${\beta}$-glucan can also be used when making cake and cookies.
