풋고추의 저장성 향상을 위한 저장전 열처리 조건을 구명하기 위하여 풋고추를 50, 55, 60, 의 온수에 각각 10초 침지하여 열처리를 하였다 에서 10초 열처리한 경우는 열처리 직후 과육표면에 가열장해 현상이 나타났다. 온수에서 침지한 풋고추를 1의 저장고에서 4주 동안 저장하면서 관능적 품질, 화학적 품질과 미생물학적 품질을 측정하였다. 표면 색도 중 L 값은 저장 중 조금씩 감소하는 경향을 보였으며, a 값과 b 값은 저장 3주까지는 거의

We investigated the efficacy of heat shock treatments to improve storage quality of green red pepper. Green red pepper were stored at 10 for 4 weeks after no treatment (control) or hot water dips at 50-65 for 10s. Treatments at 65 generally caused high levels of heat injury on the surface of fruit. The hot water dips had no effect on firmness, Hunter ‘a’ and ‘b’ values and viable cell count by 3 weeks of storage. But color of fruit changed toward darker and redder direction and firmness was decreased by heat treatment at 4 weeks of storage. The contents of capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin were not caused significant influence by different heat treatment, were decreased through the storage. The optimal hot water dip condition for maintaining fruit quality after prolonged storage was found to be 55 for 10s, which can lead to reduced chilling sensitivity of green red pepper.
