Optimum Processing Conditions for Flavor-Enhancing Green Laver Chips Using Reaction Flavor Technology.

The optimum processing conditions for green laver chips were determined using response surface methodology (RSM) to improve taste and reduce off-flavors by applying reaction flavor and air-frying techniques. The optimum composition (/) for the chips included 20% green laver, 20% hairtail surimi, and 60% flour. Additional ingredients included distilled water (90 mL) with GDL (3 g), NaHCO₃ (2 g), salt (1 g), sugar (12 g), roasted soybean powder (1.

Impact of Prebiotic on Viability of D-2 by Encapsulation through Spray Drying and Its Commercialization Potential.

This study investigated the impact of inulin (INL) on viability of D-2 (LPD2) by encapsulation through spray drying (SD) and its commercialization potential to alternative of conventional wall material maltodextrin (MD). LPD2, derived from sea tangle () kimchi, is probiotics exhibiting significant attributes like cholesterol reduction, antioxidant properties, and resilience to acidic and bile environments. To enhance storage viability and stability of LPD2, encapsulation was applied by SD technology.

Bactericidal effect of water-washing methods on contaminated in a raw fish : water type, temperature, and pH.

This study aimed to evaluate a method for effectively reducing contamination in fish based on the type of washing water and method. Texture profiles and sensory evaluations were performed to determine the effect of the developed method on the quality and preference of the samples. The selected fish sample was , which is mainly consumed in Asian countries.

Determination of Optimum Processing Condition of High Protein Laver Chip Using Air-Frying and Reaction Flavor Technologies.

This study aimed to develop a high-protein and gluten-free laver chip using air-frying and reaction flavor technologies via response surface methodology (RSM). The optimum processing condition (/) was determined with a batter composition of 20% dried laver, 21.3% hair tail surimi, and 58.

Partial replacement of high-fat diet with -3 PUFAs enhanced beef tallow attenuates dyslipidemia and endoplasmic reticulum stress in tunicamycin-injected rats.

Introduction: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is considered as a complex, intertwined multiple risk factors that directly increase the risk of various metabolic diseases, especially cardiovascular atherosclerotic diseases and diabetes mellitus type 2. While lifestyle changes, including dietary intervention are effective in mitigating or preventing MetS, there are no specific therapies against MetS. Typical western diets comprise of high saturated fatty acid, cholesterol, and simple sugar; consequently their consumption may increase the potential pathological developmental risk of MetS.

Dietary Intervention with Quercetin Attenuates Diesel Exhaust Particle-Instilled Pulmonary Inflammation and Behavioral Abnormalities in Mice.

Exposure to diesel exhaust particles (DEPs) is inevitable and closely linked with increased health hazards, causing pulmonary abnormalities by increasing inflammation, hypoxia, and so on. Moreover, long-term exposure to DEPs may trigger whole-body toxicity with behavioral alterations. Therefore, nutritional intervention with natural components may be desirable to prevent and/or ameliorate DEP-inducible pathophysiology in mammals.

Effect of Monosodium Glutamate on Salt and Sugar Content Reduction in Cooked Foods for the Sensory Characteristics and Consumer Acceptability.

Three different types of typical Korean foods were studied to investigate the effect of monosodium glutamate (MSG) on the sensory characteristics and hedonic perception of sodium- or sugar-reduced samples. The first consumer test ( = 300) was conducted to evaluate the overall liking (OL) of the samples containing four different levels of salt and sugar contents without added MSG, while the second consumer test ( = 300) was designed to examine the effects of MSG on the samples containing reduced salt and sugar contents with the lowest observed OL in the first consumer test. The results showed that the intensity of the umami taste and saltiness of the samples increased, whereas sourness and bitterness were suppressed with added MSG.

Effectiveness of depuration of Pacific Oyster (): removal of bioaccumulated by UV-treatment.

The present study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a depuration system equipped with UV-irradiation to control infection such as septicemia (or sepsis) using alive oysters. After 6 h of bioaccumulation of , Pacific oyster were found to be contaminated by > 8.0 log MPN/g of cells.

Reduction of Trimethylamine Off-Odor by Lactic Acid Bacteria Isolated from Korean Traditional Fermented Food and Their In Situ Application.

Trimethylamine (TMA) is a well-known off-odor compound in fish and fishery products and is a metabolic product of trimethylamine -oxide (TMAO) generated by the enzymatic action of microorganisms. The off-odor is a factor that can debase the value of fish and fishery products. The present study aimed to remove TMA using lactic acid bacteria (LAB).

Effects of temperature, light, and pH on the stability of fucoxanthin in an oil-in-water emulsion.

The effects of temperature, light, and pH on the stability of fucoxanthin in an oil-in-water emulsion were investigated with analyzing the kinetics and thermodynamics of fucoxanthin degradation. In the absence of light and air at pH 4.6, increasing the temperature from 25 to 60 °C significantly promoted fucoxanthin degradation.

In Vitro Antibacterial and Synergistic Effect of Chitosan-Phytochemical Conjugates Against Antibiotic Resistant Fish Pathogenic Bacteria.

Chitosan-phytochemical conjugates exhibited significant antibacterial effect with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) ranging from 128 to 2048 µg/ml against antibiotic-resistant fish pathogenic bacteria such as , and which were isolated from Korean cultured fish. Furthermore, the MIC values of old-fashioned antibiotics such as erythromycin and oxytertacycline drastically reduced in combination with chitosan-phytochemical conjugates against the fish pathogenic bacteria. The combination of conjugates with erythromycin and oxytetracycline gave median ∑FIC results ranging from 0.

Oligochitosan as a potential anti-acne vulgaris agent: combined antibacterial effects against .

To develop an antibacterial treatment for acne vulgaris using natural substance with few side effects, we investigated the antibacterial activities of oligochitosan against acne-related bacteria, particularly . Oligochitosan showed potent antibacterial effect on . Especially, 10 kDa oligochitosan presented the highest antimicrobial effect with minimum inhibitory concentration values of 32-64 μg/mL on .

Synergistic Antibacterial Effects of Chitosan-Caffeic Acid Conjugate against Antibiotic-Resistant Acne-Related Bacteria.

The object of this study was to discover an alternative therapeutic agent with fewer side effects against acne vulgaris, one of the most common skin diseases.
