본 연구에서는 과채류의 냉동냉장시 내부압력에 따른 조직파괴를 방지하기 위한 기초연구로 동결 방법에 따른 내부압력 변화에 대하여 조사하였다. 과채류의 동결에 의한 중량감소율은 침지식 동결방식에서 0.44∼l.38% 수준으로 가장 적게 나타났으며, 동결방식에 따른 중량감소율 차이는 수박에서 가장 심하여 수분함량에 클수록 동결속도에 따른 효과가 비교적 크다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 동결속도에 따른 내부압력은 배, 사과 및 메론에 있어 침지식 방법에 의한
This study was carried out to investigate the changes in internal pressure according to various freezing methods, as basic research to protect the destruction of tissues when fruits and vegetables are frozen. The rate of weight loss, caused by the freezing of fruits and vegetables, was found to be the least (0.44∼1.38％) when the immersion freezing method was applied. The difference in the rate of weight loss was the highest when freezing methods were applied to watermelon, and the freezing rate of watermelon whose moisture contents were greater have relatively greater influence on the weight loss. The difference in internal pressures was the least and caused by the volume increase and decrease, when pear, apple, and melon were frozen using the immersion freezing method, while the diffeyence the greatest when the air-blast freezing method was used. As the freezing rate was greater, the internal pressure was less. However, the internal pressure of strawberry and watermelon was the greatest when the immersion freezing method was applied. Frozen without using the thermal equalizing method, the change in internal pressure of fruits was about 2 psig. In contrast, the internal pressure of watermelon applied with the thermal equalizing method was changed in a way similar to that of watermelon not applied with the method, but the former generated a certain level of internal pressure and maintained a significantly low level of internal pressure (about 1.3 psig). When thawed, the internal pressure of samples to which the thermal equalizing method was applied was less than that of what the thermal equalizing method was not applied to. In comparison with the application of multi-step thermal equalizing method, 3∼4 times of application of the thermal equalizing method to the freezing resulted in the decrease of fluctuation range of internal pressure.
