This study analyzes flavor ingredients according to types of whisky and maturation periods based on total 40 different types of whisky that are mainly distributed to Korea via imports. Whisky was classified into four categories based on origin, and also into different categories based on maturity period, ingredients such as fusel alcohol, fatty acid, and fatty acid esters and proportion of patterns were analyzed. As a result of an analysis for fusel alcohol, high qualified types of alcohol including 3-methylbutanol, 2-methylbutanol, iso-butanol, and 1-propanol were detected from all Scotch whiskys, America whiskys, and Canadian whiskys. In particular, the proportional sum of 3-methylbutanol and 2-methylbutanol, and the sum of 3-methylbutanol and 2-methylbutanol/iso-butanol were regarded as core factors to determine each type of whisky. Acetaldehyde, ethyl acetate, and acetic acid increased as maturation and storage period became longer. As a result of the fatty acid and fatty acid ethyl ester analysis, the major fatty acids were dodecanoic acid and decanoic acid, both with detection of octanoic acid and hexanoic acid. However, dodecanoic acid, decanoic acid, and octanoic acid were lower than the detectable limit in American and Canadian whiskys, showing a unique phenomenon that hexanoic acid was detected only in very small amounts. Malt Scotch whisky showed higher significance than blended Scotch whisky, making it possible to classify types of whisky. Fatty acid ethyl ester contents showed significance with fatty acid either. In addition, changes in the whiskys based on maturation period were confirmed via proportions of fatty acids and fatty acid ethyl esters. In general, the proportion of fatty acids and fatty acid ethyl esters decreased as the storage period increased. This study provided basic data to classify types of whisky based on maturation periods by analyzing the proportion of flavor ingredients such as fusel alcohols, fatty acids, and fatty acid ethyl esters.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the sausage containing mulberry leaf(0.04%, 0.08%) and persimmon leaf powder(0.04%, 0.08%) on lipid oxidation(Thiobarbituric Acid Reactive Substances, TBARS), nitrite, volatile basic nitrogen(VBN) and fatty acid composition. The TBARS values of sausage containing mulberry leaf and persimmon leaf powder were not significantly different(p > 0.05) as compared to control during 45 days of storage, but TBARS values of sausage containing 0.04% mulberry leaf and persimmon leaf powder were significantly lower than those of control at 60 days of storage. The nitrite scavenging ability of sausage containing mulberry leaf and persimmon leaf powder was higher than that of control. The VBN content of all treatments significantly increased(p < 0.05) during the storage periods. In fatty acid compositions, the percentages of PUFA/SFA of sausage containing mulberry leaf and persimmon leaf powder were significantly higher as compared to control. In conclusion, sausage containing mulberry leaf and persimmon leaf powder was a more effective natural resource on the basis of the lipid oxidation and nitrite scavenging ability of sausage.

Cold plasma has been developed to reduce microbial contamination and to improve safety of food and medical products. In addition, the technology can be used in the manufacture of sausages without addition of nitrite. To be applied in food industry commercially, the new technology should be safe and efficient. However, toxicological test of plasma-treated food is limited. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine the mutagenicity and immune toxicity of the meat products cured with plasma-treated water (PTW) as a nitrite source. Emulsion sausages were prepared with no nitrite (control), sodium nitrite (SCS), and PTW (SCP). For a mutagenicity test, the Ames test was performed with the sausage samples. For immune toxicity test, 8-wk-old female Balb/c mice were given free access to the sausages in order to evaluate the tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α level. As a result, no mutagenicity was detected in the sausages by the Ames test. The serum TNF-α values were less than 10 pg/mL in mice after feeding control and treated samples for 32 d, indicating that no inflammatory response was occurred by feeding the sausages made by PTW. Therefore, the present study opens the possibility of using plasma-treated water as a nitrite source without any toxicity.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of duck skin on cooking loss, emulsion stability, pH, color, protein solubility, texture profile analysis (TPA), apparent viscosity, and sensory characteristics of press type duck ham with different ratio of duck breast meat and duck skin. Five duck ham formulations were produced with the following compositions: T1 (duck breast 70% + duck skin 30%), T2 (duck breast 60% + duck skin 40%), T3 (duck breast 50% + duck skin 50%), T4 (duck breast 40% + duck skin 60%), and T5 (duck breast 30% + duck skin 70%). The cooking loss and fat separation were lower in T1, and the total expressible fluid separations were lower in T1 and T2 than others. The pH ranged from 6.48 to 6.59, with the highest values in T4 and T5. T5 had the highest CIE $L^*$-value, and T1 and T2 had the highest CIE $a^*$-values; however, CIE $b^*$-values did not differ significantly between the duck ham samples. The protein solubility and TPA (hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness) were the highest in T1. T1 and T2 had higher scores for color, tenderness, and overall acceptability. T1, T2, and T3 showed significantly higher values, but there were no significant differences for flavor and juiciness. Regarding apparent viscosity properties, T1 and T2 had higher viscosity values than the other formulations. In conclusion, the T1 (duck breast 70% + duck skin 30%) and T2 (duck breast 60% + duck skin 40%) duck hams show the highest quality characteristics.

A smoldering ground fire can be a probable cause of reignition of surface fire when transmitted from Fermentation layer to Humus layer with temperature higher than that of ignition. Purpose of this paper is to identify experimental methodology on the potential risk of a smoldering ground fire, which is similar to the real surface fuel bed, and its combustion characteristics. The fuel model designed in this study is composed of 3 layers such as Litter layer, Fermentation layer and Humus layer and 8 Thermocouples are set through 3 layer at each boundary and in between to detect the temperature change and duration of smoldering and propagation velocity. As a result, it was observed that ignition conditions in the boundary between L layer and F layer determined transmission and non-transmisstion to F-H layer. In addition, range of critical humidity at which a smoldering ground fire was transmitted in a material layer was 33~44% and when temperature exceeds $350^{\circ}C$, likelihood of transmission of a smoldering ground fire was high. In the research, the experimental model for multi-layer smoldering ground fire is suggested and information about propagation of smoldering fire, possibility of reignition according to moisture content, propagation velocity and temperature change are obtained, Also, the built-up methods were established to help analyze basic characteristics of smoldering ground fire.

Changes in physicochemical properties of brown rice (Chu-chunk byeo, Japonica type) kept at $4^{\circ}C,\;20^{\circ}C,\;30^{\circ}C\;and\;40^{\circ}C$ in laminated film (4 layer) pouches were analyzed. Hardness of brown rice grain increased during storage periods. In case of color changes, 'L' value increased during storage below $30^{\circ}C$, and decreased after three months at $40^{\circ}C$. The 'a' value did not change below $30^{\circ}C$, but increased at $40^{\circ}C$. The 'b' value increased under all storage conditions. Percent germination was above 97% below $20^{\circ}C$ regardlesss of storage period and was inhibited by heat above $30^{\circ}C$. The rice did not germinate after one month storage at $40^{\circ}C$ Gelatinization enthalpy and gelatinization peak temperature by DSC of brown rice powder decreased during storage. As a result, storage below $20^{\circ}C$ in laminated film pouch is recommended far brown rice.

To prevent ozone depletion caused by CFCs, the replacement of Halon with clean agents has been developed in the fire protection field along with refrigerants, detergents, and foaming agents. The alternatives for Halon 1211 have been developed in the portable fire extinguisher area and HCFC-123 is used widely as a clean fire extinguishing agent. The type of expellant gas is important because their own vapor pressure is low. In this study, HCFC-123, HCFC-124, HFC-125, and Novec-1230 were selected as fire extinguishing agents and CO₂, which is expected to improve the fire extinguishing ability, was chosen as the expellant gas. For each agent, experiments changing the agent and CO₂ amount were carried out and HCFC-123 showed a good result, as expected. The extinguisher, HCFC-123 of 1.5 kg, showed the same ability to suppress a class A and B fire as the extinguisher, HCFC-123 of 2.5 kg, which is currently sold on the market. According to this result, the expellant gas has a subsidiary fire extinguish effect. This can reduce the amount of HCFC fire extinguishing agent, which is categorized in the phase-out alternatives, and is a more eco-friendly and economical fire extinguisher than the previous one. This study can also help solve the problems of CO₂ fire extinguishers for class B and C fires, and can be used to extinguish electric and electron facilities fire, which contains large amounts of class A fire combustibles.

Rheological properties of the aqueous solution of various polysaccarides and their effects as a stabilizer in fruit(peach) syrup and yogurt were investigated. Four kinds of modified starch(Sun Kolguard, Sun Registar, Mira Cleer 340 and Maps 449), three types of carrageenan(kappa, iota and lambda types) and pectin were used in this study. The 5% aqueous solution of each modified starch was gelatinized at $66^{\circ}C$. After gelatinization, Sun Kolguard showed the highest viscosity among those samples. The synergistic effect of carrageenan on 5% aqueous solution of Sun Kolguard was studied by changing the mixing ratio, and the result showed that the ratio 90:10(Sun Kolguard:carageenan) had the maximum synergistic effect and the effect of iota type carrageenan was higher than that of other types. The effect of Sun Kolguard as a stabilizer in fruit syrup were superior to other modified starches studied. The gelatinization temperature of the addition of iota carrageenan in starch added fruit syrup changed from $66^{\circ}C$ of 5% aqueous solution to $82^{\circ}C$. Furthermore, the viscosity after cooling of syrup which made iota carrageenan and starch added fruit syrup was more increased than simple starch added fruit syrup. The mixture of 90% Sun Kolguard and 10% iota carrageenan were estimated as the most appropriate stabilizer for manufacturing the fruit syrup and yogurt adding fruit syrup.

This experiment was carried out to predict the sensory properties of yogurt by instrumental methodology. Sensory attributes such as viscosity, mouth-feel, taste and quality were investigated. Instrumental parameters were measured with refractometer, viscometer, consistometer and rheometer. Sensory data showed that viscosity of peach yogurt was higher than that of strawberry and tropical-fruit-mixed (TFM) yogurts (p<.05). All instrumental parameters of peach yogurt were higher than those of strawberry and TFM yogurts, except cohesiveness and elasticity (p<.05). Viscosity measured by panelists was significantly correlated with instrumental viscosity, consistency, hardness, adhesiveness and gumminess in the fruit yogurts (p<.05). But mouth-feel and quality of yogurts showed poor relationships with instrumental parameters. The effective instrumental parameters for predicting sensory viscosity ($Y_{1}$) of yogurts were consistency ($X_{1}$), viscosity ($X_{2}$) and cohesiveness ($X_{3}$). And those for predicting mouth-feel ($Y_{2}$) were consistency. The estimated regression equations were as follows; $Y_{1}=4.968-0.0486X_{1}+0.00012X_{2}+0.0348X_{3},\;Y_{2}=5.701+0.0154X_{1}$.
