To extend the shelf-life of chicken breast meat, samples were treated with gel-packs containing slow-released ClO2 gas at 7-15 ppm for 8 days at 4℃. And the changes in lipid oxidation and taste compounds of the samples were investigated. TBARS value of the chicken breast was slightly increased during storage. TBARS value of gas treatments was similar to the control during storage. There were 14 fatty acids in the chicken breast. And there was no change in the fatty acid composition during storage, and there was no significant difference between the control and gas treatments. The content of free amino acids was gradually increased during storage. The content of free amino acids were not significantly different between the control and gas treatments during storage. The content of GMP in the control and gas treatments were decreased during storage. However, gas treatments showed slightly higher content than that of control. AMP was not significantly different between the control and gas treatments. IMP gradually decreased during storage and the content of inosine and hypoxanthine was increased. IMP, inosine and hypoxanthine contents of gas treatment were similar to control, but the control tended to change more rapidly than those of gas treatments.

본 연구에서는 사과 과육과 사과 주스제조시의 부산물인 사과박 그리고 사과 껍질을 건조한 후 용매별로 추출하고, polyphenol 화합물, flavonoid, ascorbic acid 및 ursolic acid 등의 항산화 물질의 함량과 항산화 활성을 측정하여 최적의 용매 및 부위를 선정하고 제품개발의 가능성을 확인하고자 하였다. Polyphenol 화합물의 함량은 100%의 ethanol로 추출하였을 때 가장 함량이 높았고, 특히 사과 껍질에서의 함량이 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. Flavonoid 화합물의 함량은 사과 껍질에서가 과육 또는 사과박에 비해 약 3~8배가량 그 함량이 높았으며, 70% ethanol을 용매로 하였을 때가 가장 높은 함량을 보였다. Ascorbic acid 함량은 사과 껍질에서 가장 많은 함량을 나타내었고, 사과박, 과육의 순이었다. Ascorbic acid의 추출 용매로는 물보다는 70% ethanol로 추출하였을 때가 ascorbic acid의 함량이 높은 것으로 나타났다. Ursolic acid의 함량에서는 사과 과육에서는 물과 ethanol 추출 시 ursolic acid 가 전혀 검출되지 않았다. 그러나 사과박 및 사과 껍질의 경우, 물 추출물에서는 검출되지 않았지만, ethanol로 추출하였을 때 검출되었으며, 그 함량은 껍질에서가 가장 많이 함유되어 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 항산화 활성의 경우, DPPH 및 ABTS 라디칼 소거능에서 70%의 ethanol 추출 시 가장 높은 소거능을 보이는 것으로 나타났으나, 금속이온 제거능에서는 라디칼 소거능에 비하여 약한 활성을 나타내어 사과에서의 항산화 활성은 금속이온 제거능보다는 라디칼 소거능이 높고 사과 껍질이 활성이 가장 우수한 것으로 판단되었다

To prolong the shelf-life of chicken breast meat, samples were treated with gel packs containing slow-released chlorine dioxide (ClO2) gas at 7~15 ppm for eight days at 4℃. The microbial, physicochemical properties and sensory evaluation of the treated samples were investigated. The total number of bacteria in the control increased during storage and showed 6.78 log CFU/g on the 8th day of storage, but ClO2 gas treatments showed 6.24~6.58 log CFU/g at the same time. The initial pH of chicken breast meat was 6.00 and gradually increased during storage. And ClO2 gas treatments did not show any significant difference from the control during storage period, but maintained a generally lower pH than that of the control. The lightness, redness, and yellowness during storage were not significantly different between the control and the 7~10 ppm ClO2 gas treatments. However, as the storage period was increased, the redness of 15 ppm ClO2 gas treatment was reduced. The cooking loss and shear force were not different between the control and ClO2 gas treatments during the storage period. Volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) increased in the control from the 6th day of storage and 23.80 mg% in the 8th day of storage. However, VBN of ClO2 treatments showed lower than that of the control. In the change of sensory evaluation during storage, 10 ppm ClO2 treatment showed the highest preference in odor, appearance and overall acceptance during storage period.
