This study was carried out to investigate the effect of chlorine water and plasma gas treatment on the quality and microbial control of Latuca indica L. baby Leaf during storage. Latuca indica L. baby leaves were harvested from a plant height of 10cm. They were sterilized with 100μL·L-1 chlorine water and plasma-gas (1, 3, and 6hours), and packaged with 1,300cc·m-2·day-1·atm-1 films and then stored at 8±1?and RH 85±5% for 25days. During storage, the fresh weight loss of all treatments were less than 1.0%, and the carbon dioxide and oxygen concentrations in packages were 6-8% and 16-17%, respectively for all treatments in the final storage day. The concentration of ethylene in the packages fluctuated between 1-3μL·L-1 during the storage and the highest concentration of ethylene was observed at 6 hours plasma treatment in the final storage day. The off-odor of all treatments were almost odorless, the treatments of chlorine water and 1 hour plasma maintained the marketable visual quality until the end of storage. Chlorophyll content and Hue angle value measured at the final storage day were similar to those measured before storage in chlorine water and 1 hour of plasma treatments. E. coli was not detected immediately after sterilization in all sterilization treatments. After 6 hours of plasma treatment, the total bacteria fungus counts were lower than the domestic microbial standard for agricultural product in all sterilization treatments. The total aerobic counts in the end storage day increased compared to before storage, whereas E. coli was not detected in all sterilization treatments. The sterilization effect against bacteria and fungi was the best in chlorine water treatment. Plasma treatment showed sterilization effects, but within a prolonged period of time. In addition, the sterilization effect decreased gradually. These results suggest that chlorine water and plasma treatment were effective in maintaining Latuca indica L. baby Leaf commerciality and controlling microorganisms during postharvest storage.

참딱부리긴노린재의 약충과 성충 모두 5℃ 조건에서 30일 이상 50%의 누적생존율을 나타내며 저장이 가능하였다. 생존율이 가장 높았던 저장 온도인 5℃에서의 저장기간별 참딱부리긴노린재의 산란수는 저장기간이 길어질수록 감소하였으나, 4주까지의 저장은 산란수에 영향을 주지 않았다. 3주간의 저온저장된 참딱부리긴노린재 성충은 담배가루이 4~5령 약충을 포식하는데 포식량에 영향을 받지 않았다. 따라서 참딱부리 긴노린재 약충과 성충은 5℃ 조건에서 3주간의 저장이 가능한 것으로 판단되었다. 갈고리뱀잠자리붙이 성충은 꿀물을 제공하며 5℃에서 저장하 였을 때 20주(140일)까지 50%의 누적생존율을 나타내며 저장이 가능하였지만, 2주 이상의 저온저장은 산란력에 부정적인 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 저온저장기간이 길어질수록 갈고리뱀잠자리붙이의 진딧물 포식량은 감소하였으나. 5주까지의 저온저장은 진딧물 포식량에 영향을 주지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 참딱부리긴노린재와 갈고리뱀잠자리붙이 두 종 천적의 단일 저온저장이 가능할 것으로 보여 생물학적 방제의 유용한 도구로 활용 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

육제품에 사용되는 합성 항산화제를 대체할 천연물질에 관한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 본 연구는 냉장 저장 중 아스타잔틴(AX)의 첨가가 유화형소시지의 산화 안정성 및 품질 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해 무첨가구인 대조구, 500 mg/kg BHT (Butylated hydroxytoluene), 및 80 mg/kg AX으로 처리하였다. AX의 첨가는 유화형소시지의 pH, 유화 안정성 및 가열 수율에 유의적인 영향을 미치지 않았다(p>0.05). 그러나 육색의 경우 아스타잔틴 첨가구의 초기(day 1) 색상유지력은 합성 항산화제인 BHT와 동일하였고, 적색도는 높게 나타났다(p<0.05). 항산화 능력에서, 처리구간 단백질 산화는 유의 적인 차이가 없었다. 지질 산화의 경우 저장 종료시(day 14) BHT 처리구에서 가장 낮은 값을 나타냈으나 AX 첨가구 또한 무첨가구인 대조구보다 매우 낮게 나타났다(p<0.05). 한편, 경도는 저장 초기에 비해 저장 종료시 BHT와 AX 처리구들에서 대조구에 비해 낮게 나타났다(p<0.05). 그러므로 천연물질인 아스타잔틴은 기존에 사용되는 합성 항산화제인 BHT를 대체하여 항산화제의 역할뿐만 아니라 육제품의 색상 증진제로도 활용 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

최근 메틸브로마이드를 이용한 훈증소독 검역처리 기술의 오존층파괴 문제로 인하여 사용이 감소함에 따라 이온화 방사선 조사 기술이 주목받고 있다. 본 연구는 수출용 새송이 버섯에 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 및 3kGy의 감마선 조사 후 저장기간(0, 7, 14, 21, 및 28일) 동안 버섯의 품질에 미치는 영향에 대해 연구하였다. 새송이 버섯의 경도 변화를 측정한 결과, 비조사구의 경우 저장기간이 증가함에 따라 급격히 감소한 반면 감마선 조사에 의하여 경도의 감소폭이 유의적으로 줄어들었다. 색도 변화 역시 감마선 조사에 의하여 저장기간 중 발생하는 새송이 버섯의 갈변이 저해되는 것을 확인하였다. 하지만 수분함량, 수분활성도, 및 중량손실율의 경우 저장기간에 따른 조사구와 비조사구간에 차이가 관찰되지 않았다. 따라서 3 kGy 이하의 감마선 조사를 통하여 새송이 버섯의 저장 품질을 향상시킬 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

It was available to store both nymphs and adults of Geocoris pallidipennis at 5℃ for 3 weeks without negative effects on their survival, fecundity, and Bamisia tabaci nymph predation. Up to 140 days, it was also possible to store Micromus angulatus adults at low temperature, showing approximately 50% cumulative survival rate, but over 2 week cold storage was not suitable for their fecundity. With the increase of cold storage duration, the aphid predation by M. angulatus decreased, but it could be possible to cold store until 5 weeks without a significant effect on their aphid predation. Thus, short term cold storage of G. pallidipennis and M. angulatus could be useful for inundative biological control.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of adding gradually increasing concentrations of turmeric extract (0, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.4%) to smoked duck meat on its chromaticity, antibiosis, and antiseptic degree against food poisoning bacteria, number of bacteria, lipid rancidity, sensory evaluation, and preference. The brightness, red color intensity and yellow color intensity changed significantly when 0.2% turmeric extract was added and the sodium nitrate concentration was reduced. Additionally, no antibiosis or antiseptic activities against food poisoning bacteria were observed in any turmeric treated samples, whereas the number of bacteria was increased in control samples compared to turmeric treated samples after 10 days of preservation. The TBARS value decreased during storage when turmeric extract concentration increased, resulting in positive sensory evaluation of its color, succulence, taste and hardness. In the preference test, the surface and meat color increased as the concentration of turmeric extracts increased. Hardness was highest at 0.2%, whereas taste was highest between 0.2 and 0.4%. The overall preference test was highest for the 0.2% extract samples. Overall, the results indicated that addition of 0.2% turmeric to smoked duck meat will lead to better nutrition, function, and overall preference.

Quality changes in yakgwa (such as color, moisture contents, acid value, rheological properties, and viable cells) using different types of frying oils was examined for 5 weeks. During the storage period, the lightness and yellowness of all samples were increased and there was no significant difference in redness. After 5 weeks of storage, rice bran oil showed the least color difference. There was no difference in the moisture contents of all samples except for grape seed oil, while the moisture contents of yakgwa fried with grape seed oil was decreased. The acid value increased as the storage period increased regardless of the type of frying oil, and yakgwa fried with rice bran oil and grape seed oil showed a low acid value. The hardness was increased as the storage period increased, but there was no difference in the hardness between the samples. The adhesiveness and resilience were decreased and the chewiness was increased. The total cell count did not increase significantly as the storage period, and there was also no difference in the total cell count between the samples. There was a high level of yeast and mold in comparison to total cell count, and the colony of bacteria was not detected.

본 연구는 큰다닥냉이 어린잎 채소의 MA저장 중 OTR 필름 종류가 품질에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 수행하였다. 플라스틱하우스에서 2주간 재배한 초장 10cm 내외의 큰다닥냉이 어린잎를 산소투과도가 1,300cc, 10,000cc, 20,000cc, 40,000cc, 그리고 80,000cc·m-2·day-1 ·atm-1인 OTR필름과 대조구인 미세천공필름(Ø 0.06cm, 36ea/100cm2)을 사용하여 포장하여 8oC에서 10일간 저 장하였다. 저장 종료일 모든 OTR필름 처리구의 생체중 감소율은 0.5%를 보였고, 대조구인 미세천공 필름은 1.3%의 감소를 나타냈다. 포장 내 산소농도는 20,000cc, 40,000cc, 그리고 80,000cc OTR필름 처리구에서 저장 중 18%이상의 농도을 유지하였고, 1,300cc OTR필름 처 리구는 저장 종료일 11%의 농도로 가장 낮게 유지되었 다. 이산화탄소 농도는 1,300cc와 10,000cc OTR필름 처리구에서 각각 4.5%와 3.4%의 수준으로 꾸준히 증가하였고, 다른 OTR필름 처리구는 1% 미만의 농도를 유지 하였다. 포장 내 에틸렌 농도는 저장 기간 중 1,300cc OTR 필름 처리구에서 3-5μL·L-1로 가장 높게 유지되었다. 1,300cc OTR필름 처리구에서 가장 낮은 이취와 가 장 높은 외관상 품질을 보였는데, 대조구를 포함한 다른 처리구들은 황화현상으로 인한 품질저하로 상품성을 상실하였다. 저장 종료일에 조사한 엽록소 함량과 Hue angle값은 1,300cc OTR필름 처리구에서 가장 높았으며, 황색도를 나타내는 b*값은 1,300cc OTR필름 처리구에 서 가장 낮았다. 따라서 MA저장 중 황화와 이취 억제효과가 우수한 1,300cc OTR필름이 큰다닥냉이 어린잎 채소의 포장에 적합하다고 판단된다.

This study was carried out to determine the optimal storage conditions by examining the effects of the storage conditions on the quality of red pepper powder during storage in households. Red pepper powder was stored at room temperature (20oC), refrigeration (2 and -1oC) and frozen (-5 and -20oC) for 3, 6, 9 and 12 months. The ASTA color value, capsanthin content and redness (a*) of the red pepper powders stored at -5 and -20oC were not decreased significantly depending on the storage temperatures until 9 months. The pH of red pepper powder stored at 20oC decreased significantly until 9 months and increased at 12 months. The microbiological quality of the red pepper powder stored at -5 and -20oC was more stable during long-term storage. In the sensory evaluation of red pepper powder stored under all conditions, the overall freshness, redness, hot flavor, moisture release, and edibility decreased with increasing storage period from the control to 12 months. Moisture release increased from 3 months to 12 months. Overall, red pepper should be stored at low temperatures (2 , -1oC) for up to 6 months, and frozen (≥ -5oC) for 6 to 9 months. The optimal temperature for long-term storage (≥9 months) was -20oC.

This study was conducted to investigate the feed value and silage quality according to storage period and film layers in whole crop oat silage. The crude protein content was increased in all silage during the storage periods compared to those before silage, under prolonged storage period slightly and the number of film layers of silage, six layer were higher than four layers, but no significant. NDF and ADF contents were also increased in all silage of storage duration compared to those before silage, but they was similar level between storage duration and number of film layers. TDN content was decreased of the storage duration. However, it was similar under the storage duration and the number of film layers. The pH value was decreased during prolonged storage period and six layers was lower than four layers depending on the film layers. In the organic acid contents, lactic acid and acetic acid were increased under the prolonged storage duration, and butyric acid was higher significantly(p<0.05), six layers of the film were showed higher lactic acid and lower butyric acid(p<0.05). Therefore, oat silage should be used within 6 months it was when treated with 4 layers, if considering the long-term storage, it is desirable to treat it with 6 layers or more.

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.

This study was conducted to propose the conditions of controlled atmosphere (CA) storage suitable for the storage of winter Chinese cabbage and to investigate the maximum storage period of Chinese cabbage based on the results of the quality analysis for CA storage. The weight loss rate of Chinese cabbage stored at 194 days in low temperature storage was about 2 times higher than that in CA storage. The trimming loss rate of Chinese cabbage stored at low temperature was 1.5 times higher than that of CA storage after 83 days of storage. Bolting of Chinese cabbage was observed in only low temperature storage. The Chinese cabbage firmness of CA storage was not different in the range of 5.7-6.2 N, while low temperature storage gradually increased after 83 days of storage and was 7.5 N at 194 days. The incidence of mold occurred after 83 days in low temperature storage, while in CA storage it occurred after 153 days. In the quality evaluation, CA storage for Chinese cabbage was rated 1.5-1.9 points higher than the low temperature storage. The maximum storage period of Chinese cabbage at low temperature storage was 83 days and that at CA storage 153 days.

This study was conducted to investigate the quality of pumpkin paste added with different starches during storage at 4℃ for 8 days. Pumpkin paste was evaluated for pH, carotenoid, syneresis, color values, texture, and sensory characteristics. The properties of the pumpkin paste were studied on three different starches (CON: control, MCP: cow pea starch, MMB: mung bean starch, and MSP: sweet potato starch). The initial pH of the pumpkin paste with starches were 6.13~6.16. The pH of pumpkin paste increased as the starches added increased. The carotenoid content of CON was higher in the pumpkin paste processing. The change of syneresis significantly increased with the storage period, and the amount of change of MCP and MMB added with starch was smaller than CON without the added starch. The Hunter's L-values of the pumpkin paste increased, whereas the a- and b-value decreased as the amount of starches added increased. The results of the textural analysis showed that the hardness of MCP and MMB was different from that of other pumpkin paste, showing a lower value such as 38.26 g, 38.93 g, while CON and MSP was 40.43 g and 42.49 g, respectively. A sensory evaluation indicated that starches could enhance the overall texture characteristics of pumpkin paste. In terms of the overall acceptance of the pumpkin paste, the experimental group with MCP scored the best.

In this study, pH, oBrix, salt concentration, sodium content, color, hardness, and sensory evaluations were measured during storage at low temperatures for 21 days after making tongue sole Jangajji with different types of Gochujang sauces. The pH was higher than those of samples not containing Maesil fermented liquor at all storage periods. The oBrix of the Maesil fermented liquor added samples was higher than that of the samples not added at the early stages of storage. On the other hand, there was no significant difference between the samples with and without Maesil fermented liquor at the later stages of storage. The sodium content was lower than that of the samples not containing Maesil fermented liquor. The lightness (L) was lower in the early stages of storage than those of the Maesil fermented liquor. In the late stage of storage, however, the lightness was higher than those of the samples not containing Maesil fermented liquor. The redness (a) of the GRWO sample group showed the highest value at all storage periods compared to the other sample groups. The yellowness (b) of the GRWO sample group was high at the early stages of storage. On the 21st day of storage, however, the GRW sample group was significantly higher (p<0.01). The hardness results showed that the value of the later storage period was lower than that at the initial storage stage. The sensory evaluation showed that the Maesil fermented liquor reduced the spicy, salty, bitter, and unpleasant taste. As a result of the acceptance test, the GRWO and GRW samples were evaluated as the acceptance group with color, aroma, texture and overall acceptability compared to the brown rice Gochujang sample group.

The objectives of this study was to investigate the properties and stability of the wet noodles added to nanoemulsion as a industrial model system, and in so doing, survey practical applicability in the food industry. In order to test out these objectives, the characteristics and stability of the wet noodles added to nanoemulsion were investigated and their cooking characteristics and capsaicinoids loss were examined. As a result, the test results showed that the findings indicated that the post-cooking loss of capsaicinoids in the wet noodles added to double-layer nanoemulsion covered with chitosan was less than the losses in the wet noodles added to any other noodles. More especially, this demonstrates that the noodle added to double-layer nanoemulsion covered with chitosan scored significantly higher than the others with reference to their cooking properties, color, texture, stability for storage stability, and sensory evaluation. These results show that the findings of this study demonstrated that the noodles added to nanoemulsions could be produced as a food-grade merchandise because they could provide enhanced encapsulation capacity of capsaicinoids and higher acceptability.

In the present study, kohlrabi-kimchi was prepared for assessment of changes in sensory qualities and measurement of changes in quality characteristics according to the storage period for the purpose of using kohlrabi as an ingredient of kimchi. Examination of the physicochemical properties of kohlrabi-kimchi according to the storage period showed that the acidity increased steadily throughout the storage period, while soluble-solids content, pH and hardness decreased as the storage period elapsed. Meanwhile, the L value increased and then it decreased as the storage period elapsed, but, the a value increased and the b value gradually decreased after day 14 of storage. Reducing sugars increased up to day 10 of storage, and then they decreased slowly after day 15 of storage. Measurement of changes in lactic acid bacteria in kohlrabi-kimchi according to the storage period showed bacterial growth showing typical tendencies of Kimchi with a rapid increase on day 5 of storage and a decrease thereafter. Assessment of sensory qualities of kohlrabi-kimchi according to the storage period showed that the highest scores for appearance and sourness, odor, texture, and overall scores were obtained on day 15 of storage. Based on the above results, it was determined that the optimal maturity period of kohlrabi-kimchi is day 15 of storage.

To prolong the shelf-life of strawberry, samples were treated with gel packs containing slow-released chlorine dioxide(ClO2) gas at 3~7 ppm for 6 days at room temperature. The weight loss and decay ratio as well as changes in pH, color and texture properties of the treated samples were investigated. The weight of the control and ClO2 gas treated samples decreased slightly, but the weight of the control changed faster than those of the ClO2 gas treated samples during the storage period. The decay ratio of control was higher than those of the ClO2 gas treatments since 4 days of storage. The pH and acidity in the control and in the ClO2 gas treated samples were no differences during storage period. The lightness of strawberry decreased during storage, but there was no difference in lightness among the treatments even when storage time was extended. The redness and yellowness of the control showed higher change than those of the ClO2 gas treatments during 6 days. The firmness of the control changed more rapidly than those of the ClO2 gas treatments during 6 days. Especially, the samples treated 3 and 5 ppm ClO2 gas were the least changed. And the scores for appearance, firmness and overall acceptance control and 7 ppm ClO2 gas treatment decreased more rapidly than those of 3 and 5 ppm treatment.
