Five types of kiwi jelly were prepared with different rates of pressed kiwi juice and carrageenan, and their quality characteristics such as chemical composition, saccharinity, color, texture, and sensory attributes were measured. There were no significant changes in moisture, crude lipid, carbohydrate, but significant differences were shown in crude ash, crude protein, pH, and acidity. The pH decreased and acidity increased as the amount of added kiwi juice increased. The saccharinity of kiwi jelly increased with increased amount of added kiwi juice. Additionally, the total phenolic content, DPPH radical scavenging activity and content increased with increased amount of added kiwi juice. The hardness, gumminess, and chewiness increased with increased levels of carrageenan. As the amount of added carrageenan increased, the L values of kiwi jelly decreased. Based on the sensory evaluation test, kiwi jelly, JKJ(Jeju Kiwi Jelly)-3 was the best in the flavor, sweetness, texture, and overall acceptability. The chemical composition of JKJ-3 was as follows : moisture $75.1{\pm}0.5%$, carbohydrate $24.2{\pm}0.5%$, crude protein $0.29{\pm}0.05%$, and crude ash $0.44{\pm}0.02%$. The kiwi jelly, JKJ-3 of overall acceptability values in the sensory test for flavor, sweetness, hardness, texture and overall favorite were 3.65, 3.35, 3.35, 3.50 and 3.60, respectively, with the addition of 20% pressed kiwi juice and 2.3% carrageenan.

This study was conducted to evaluate the changes in porcine serum albumin (PSA), a major allergen, which occur when raw pork ham is marinated with kiwi or pineapple juice, and/or when the ham is pan broiled at $300^{\circ}C$ for 4 min after marination. In this study, raw pork ham was soaked for 4 h or 8 h in marinades containing commercial marinating sauce only, commercial marinating sauce and 7% kiwi juice, or commercial marinating sauce and 7% pineapple juice. When the meat was marinated and then pan-broiled, pork ham meat protein was significantly denatured and hydrolyzed, and the level of PSA in the meat was significantly reduced. The PSA contents of pork broiled without marination, pork that had been marinated in commercial marinating sauce alone, pork that had been marinated in commercial marinating sauce with kiwi juice, and pork that had been marinated in commercial marinating sauce with pineapple juice, were 95.4, 43.3, 14.3, and 5.4 ng/mL, respectively (p<0.05). Marinating with pineapple juice was more effective than marinating with kiwi juice; and marination for 8 h was more effective than marinating for 4 h. These results indicate that the level of PSA in pork ham is effectively reduced, when the meat is first marinated in sauces that contain kiwi or pineapple extracts for 8 h, rather than 4 h, and then cooked. Further study is needed to determine whether marinated pork meat reduces allergenicity in vivo, as well.

Inactivation of Salmonella Typhimurium and Listeria monocytogenenes in mandarin orange, Prunus mume (maesil), and kiwi juices was evaluated. A three-strain mixture of S. Typhimurium or L. monocytogenes was inoculated (7 log CFU/ml) into a commercial mandarin orange juice and maesil juice, and home-maid kiwi extract. The inactivation effect of Maesil juice was estimated by the addition into the other two fruit juices. All fruit juices had acidic pH, ranging from 2.8 to 3.5 and it was not variable during all experimental period, being at $4^{\circ}C$ for 14 days, The present study demonstrated that Maesil juice inactivated throughly L. monocytogenes within 7 days, while kiwi extract and mandarin orange juice archived 3.0-log inactivation and 1.0-log inactivation, respectively, until 14 days of storage. S. Typhimurium was completely reduced by Maesil juice and kiwi extract within 14 days, but mandarin orange juice showed only 1.4-log inactivation. The inactivation of L. monocytogenes and S. Typhimurium was increased by adding 10% maesil juice to both mandarin orange juice and kiwi extract.

The aim of this study was to evaluate proteolytic and antioxidant activities of fresh pineapple and kiwi juices extracted using a slow-speed masticating household juicer during low temperature storage. While over 90% of vitamin C and total polyphenols in both juices were retained after storage for 30 days at $-20^{\circ}C$, reduction of 56.8% for vitamin C and 31.9% for total polyphenols in pineapple juice were detected after storage at $4^{\circ}C$. In the case of kiwi juice, 32.9% of vitamin C and 22.4% of total polyphenols were lost. A high initial content of vitamin C in kiwi juice resulted in a slower reduction rate than that for pineapple juice. A similar result was obtained for 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity. Proteolytic activities of both juices were maintained efficiently with less than 10% loss during storage for 30 days at $-20^{\circ}C$. Protease stability of pineapple juice was better than that of kiwi juice during storage at $4^{\circ}C$, and the same result was obtained when boiled chicken breast was used as a substrate. From these results, when storing pineapple and kiwi juices, which are widely used as a natural meat tenderizer and digestive aid, cold storage at $-20^{\circ}C$ seemed to be more suitable for maintaining antioxidant and proteolytic activities than cold storage at $4^{\circ}C$.

To investigate the effects of storage and pasteurization temperature on the quality of kiwi juice $(13.5^{\circ}Brix)$, the Kiwi juice was pasteurized at 65, 75 and $85^{\circ}C$ for 15 sec. The microbial, physicochemical measurements and sensory evaluations were conducted at the same condition during storage at 4 and $25^{\circ}C$ for 30 days. Most of the vegetative bacteria cells in kiwi juice were destroyed by heat treatment over $65^{\circ}C$, and they did not actively grow in kiwi juice after pasteurization. The D values of bacteria in kiwi juice by tubular type of heating exchange were 4.17, 1.47 and 0.81 sec at 65, 75 and $85^{\circ}C$, respectively. The growth of microorganisms during storage were not detected in the most samples. The amounts of vitamin C decreased as the pasteurization-storage-temperature and storage time increased. While reducing sugar increased as the pasteurization-storage temperature-storage time increased, it decreased rapidly after 20 days of storage. Hunter's color values L, a and b of stored kiwi juice were decreased at all storage conditions, browning reaction rate increased as the pasteurization-storage-temperature was decreased.

A fresh vegetable and fruit juice has become a new healthy food available for detoxification, dieting and health. This paper presents the useful information about the quality changes of fresh juice according to different juicer. Quality of fresh juice could be evaluated by several factors such as juice yield, enzyme activity, antioxidant activity, polyphenol contents, and anti-inflammatory activity. The juice yields of 12 different vegetables and fruits were compared using 6 different juicers and it was observed that the yield of slow juicer was better than that of conventional blender. Among 12 samples, the juice yield of grape is the best and the pH of the juice was in the acidic range of 3 and 4. Kiwi and grapefruit were the best in terms of protease enzyme activities by Hemoglobin units on the tyrosine basis and Spectrophotometric acid protease unit and papain units on the tyrosine basis of KFDA protocols. The total polyphenol contents were also high in kiwi and grapefruit. The antioxidant activity by diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and radical scavenging assay were high in the order of kiwi, grapefruit, grape, tomato, and orange. Anti-inflammatory activities were also assay for 12 samples with 6 juicers. It can be concluded that of fresh fruit and vegetable juice provides a source of antioxidant components and enzymes with high activity. And the enzyme activities could be used as one of the quality indicator of fresh juice. Concerning the juicers used in this study, slow juicer could be recommended to prepare the fresh juice in terms of the juice quality.

Some selected fruit juices and fermented red grape juices were investigated to determine the phenolic components by the Folin-Ciocalteu method and antioxidant capacity using α, α-diphenyl-β-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH) method. Commercial red grape beverages and red wines were also analyzed as control groups. In the juice, kiwi fruit had the highest phenolic components followed by orange(summer), red grape(Cambell Early:Yonng-Chun), mandarin orange(autumn), apple(Hong-Ok), cherry tomato, tomato and water melon. Whereas, on the antioxidant efficiency, tomato showed the highest free radical scavenging effect followed by orange(summer), cherry tomato, mandarin orange(autumn), apple(Aori) red grape(Cambell Early:Sung-Ju), kiwi fruit and water melon. The amount of pheonlic components of red wine was 2 times of that of fermented sugar added grape juice, however, the antioxidant efficiency of fermented sugar added grape juice was almost the same as that of red wine. It was found that no clear relationship could be shown between the content of phenolic component and antioxidant capacity of fruit juices and fermented red grape juices. The fruit juices from tomato, orange, cherry tomato, mandarin orange, red grape and fermented sugar added red grape juice showed high free radical scavenging effect and should be regarded as a valuable source of antioxidant.

Pectinesterase inhibitor(PEI) of ripened kiwi fruit(Actinidia chinensis) was separated with affinity chromatography using CNBr-activated Sepharose 4B being covalently bound by orange pectinesterse(PE). The affinity resin strongly and selectively bound PEI, which could be eluted in high yield as a single peak by pH 9.5 without loss of inhibitory activity. The separated PEI had maintained almost inhibitory activity at $-25^{\circ}C$ and $5^{\circ}C$ during 30 days but lost it at room temperature in 4 weeks. The PEI possessed a molecular weight of 16.6 KDa, as estimated by 12.5% SDS-PAGE. PEI had optimum pH of 7.5, optimum temperature of below $10^{\circ}C$ and stability up to $70^{\circ}C$. Also, optimum inhibitory activity for PEI was obtained in 0.2 M NaCl of substrate solutions. The kind of inhibition on tomato pectinesterase was found to be noncompetitive, using citrus pectin as substrate. Fresh orange juice added with crude PEI extracts maintained almost the same cloud stability as pasteurized juice. In case of apple juice, the addition of crude PEI extracts to apple juice had decrease of L-ascorbic acid with nearly no effect on cloud loss.

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of marination with mixed salt (NaCl, $CaCl_2$, and phosphate) and kiwi juice and of different cooking methods for pork loin-based products in order to establish the basic database for increasing the consumption of pork loin in Korea. Diced chilled pork loin ($2{\times}2{\times}2\;cm$) was marinated in 4 different treatments: no additives (T1), salt mix only (T2), kiwi juice only (T3), and salt mix+kiwi juice (T4). The mixed salt was prepared by the addition of NaCl, $CaCl_2$, and phosphate dissolved in water (10% of pork loin weight) at concentrations of 0.5, 0.5, and 0.3% per pork loin weight, respectively. The amount of kiwi juice was 10% of pork loin weight. After marination for 24 hrs at $4^{\circ}C$, the samples were cooked with different methods including roasting with Kimchi, pan broiling, and simmering. After simmering, pH of pork loin of T1 and T2 was higher than that of T3 and T4 (p<0.05), while that of roasted with Kimchi and pan broiled did not show any difference. Water holding capacity of T4 after pan broiling was higher than that of T1, T2, and T3 (p<0.001) and shear force of T4 was lower than other treatments. Also flavor and acceptability of T4 after pan broiling were scored higher by 11 sensory panelists (p<0.05). From this result, the pork loin-based products marinated with mixed salt and kiwi juice with pan broiling would be preferred by consumers as one of the methods to promote the consumption of pork loin in Korea.
