양송이의 유통과정중 선도연장을 위해 수확 후 예냉처리와 포장개선 시도가 행해졌다. 기존의 관행적인 골판지상자에 담아 무예냉 상온유통하는 방법과 예냉처리후 스티로폼 상자에 담아 냉장수송한 양송이에 대하여 와 에 보관하면서 품질 변화를 조사하였다. 예냉처리에 의해 양송이의 호흡속도는 2-3배 억제되었으며 감소율은 에서는 2일후 무예냉구가 15%, 예냉구가 7% 정도, 에서는 3일후에 무예냉구가 7%, 예냉구는 0.3% 정도로 나타났다. 표면색을 나타

Precooling and improved packing of mushrooms were investigated with a view to prolonging their freshness. Harvested mushrooms were precooled by forced air cooling and then packed in an EPS container. Mushrooms were transported to customers by insulated truck and stored at either . Conventionally packed mushrooms in cartons were also examined as controls. Mushroom respiration rate slowly fell 2- to 3-fold upon precooling. Weight loss was decreased by precooling and the use of the insulated pack. Also, the L-value of the mushroom surface remained high with precooling, and mushroom elongation was less than in the control. Summer market life was extended to 3-4 days (from 1-2 days) by the improved distribution method.
