Silkworms have been developed for food and medicinal purposes, and several silkworm products are commercially available. However, there has been no research on their shelf stability. This study investigated the shelf stability of freeze-dried silkworms during storage at various temperature and humidity conditions, using three lipid oxidation indicators: peroxide, acid, and TBA value. The higher the temperature and relative humidity are, the more significant the three lipid oxidation indicators increase. Among these indicators, the TBA and peroxide values show the highest temperature dependence and humidity dependence, respectively. This study could contribute to the standardization of the shelf life of products made from freeze-dried silkworms.

Physicochemical properties and storage stability of plant-based alternative meat prepared with low-fat soybean powder (LPAM) treated by supercritical-CO2 and those of full-fat soybean powder (FPAM) were compared. Ash and crude protein contents were higher in LPAM than in FRAM. Water absorption capacity and oil absorption capacity were significantly higher in LPAM than in FPAM. Water binding capacity was higher in LPAM than in FPAM during a 20 days storage period at 5℃ and pH was significantly lower in LPAM than in FPAM after a 5~10 days storage period. Hardness, gumminess and chewiness significantly increased with the increase in the storage period, and the three were significantly higher in LPAM than in FPAM after 10 days and 20 days of storage. The acid value showed no remarkable difference according to the storage period in LPAM; however, it was significantly higher in FPAM than in LPAM after 20 days of storage. The peroxide value and TBA value were significantly increased according to the storage period, and were significantly lower iin LPAM than in FPAM during all the storage periods. Therefore, the use of low-fat soybean powder may be effective in improving oxidative stability during storage in the production of plant-based alternative meat.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the antioxidant activities, quality characteristics, and storage stability of perilla oil mayonnaise (PM) with different levels of onion powder (OP) from 0 to 3%. As the amount of OP increased, the L, a, and b values increased, but pH decreased (p<0.05). The addition of OP raised viscosity (p<0.05). The addition of OP to PM proportionally increased the total phenolic content, and antioxidant activities as measured by DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity, and FRAP assay. When compared to PM without OP, PM that contained OP had a peroxide value that was almost 1.94 times lower. The emulsion stability was between 97.62 to 94.92% in the PM without OP and PM with OP groups was 99.60% for 12 weeks. This study showed that the inclusion of OP in PM has the potential to inprove its quality, antioxidant activities, and storage stability.

The purpose of this study was to breed a variety of stable productivity and high storage characteristics of white Hypsizygus marmoreus, which has high demand at domestic and global market due to a low bitter taste and the preference for white species. Accordingly, ‘Baekmaru’ was bred by hybridizing brown and white cap color species and backcrossing with white species. The ‘Baekmaru’ variety was bred by crossbreeding the brown and white species and backcrossing the white species. Through repeated cultivation of ‘Baekmaru’, a variety with a low contamination rate was selected when culturing the spawn for stable cultivation. As a results of demonstration test, the yield of ‘Baekmaru’ was 14% higher than that of the commercial variety. In addition, among the fruiting body characteristics of ‘Baekmaru’, diameter and thickness of the pileus were 16.43±15.27mm and 6.46±0.58mm, which were slightly higher than the commercial variety, and the hardness was 2.69±0.89N for the pileus and 3.09±0.89N for the stipe. The shelf life showed less change in thickness and color of pileus compared to commercial variety. The hardness of pileus of 'Baekmaru' was maintained in the range of 3.5 to 4.0N in the 4oC and 4oC and 20oC mixed treatment until 30 days of storage, and was higher than that of the commercial variety. Therefore, it was suggested to be excellent in storability.

This study was carried out to investigate milling's effect on the pasting properties and storage stability of dry-milled rice flour. Rice flour's moisture content was increased from 9.48% to 9.80% after going through a rice polisher, and the crude fat content of rice flour was decreased from 0.91% to 0.62% after going through a rice polisher. In the color index of rice flour, the rice polisher was only affected by yellowness. The pasting properties were verified through RVA, and it was confirmed that the use of a rice polisher had no significant effect on the pasting properties. As a result of observing the changes in fatty acid value, it was ascertained that the storage period could be increased using the rice polisher. These results suggest that the rice polisher can increase the storage period without changing the pasting properties.

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.

두유는 단백질, 지방, 다당류 등으로 구성된 에멀젼으로서 저장 중 상분리 또는 침전 현상이 발생하게 되는데, 이에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 것은 입도크기인 것으로 알려져 있다. 최근 보고에 의하면 양친매성의 계면활성제는 두유의 이러한 현상을 억제하는 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 두유의 가공조건과 천연 계면활성제인 사포닌(순도=80%)이 두유의 저장 안정성에 미치는 영향을 확인하고자 하였다. 실험에 사용한 두유액은 고형분을 제거한 후, 사포닌을 0%, 1%(w/w)를 각각 첨가하였으며, 고속균질기와 고압균질기를 순차적으로 사용하여 입도가 균일한 두유로 제조하였다. 두유의 저장 안정성 테스트를 위하여 15일 동안 저장(온도=4℃, 25℃ and 37 ℃) 하면서 visual appearance, microstructure, transmittance, particle size distribution, terminal velocity를 각각 측정 하였다. 두유의 상분리는 25 ℃와 37 ℃에서 GSP 0% 첨가의 경우 각각 120 및 48 h 후 GSP 1% 첨가의 경우 각각 192 및 48 h 후에 발생하였으나, 4℃에서는 저장기간 동안에 관찰되지 않았다. 저장기간 동안, 두유의 microstructure는 GSP 0% 첨가의 경우 입자가 응집되는 것이 관찰 되었으나, GSP 1%를 첨가한 경우 두유 입자의 응집 현상은 관찰되지 않았다. 모든 샘플은 저장 시간이 지남에 따라 transmittance가 증가하는 경향을 보였는데, 높은 저장온도에서 transmittance가 빠르게 증가하였다. 두유의 입도크기는 저장 0 h에서 GSP 0% 첨가의 경우 8.8 μm로서 GSP 1% 첨가의 경우(12.3 μm)보다 작은 값을 나타내었다. 이후 저장 시간이 지남에 따라 입도 크기가 감소하는 경향을 보였는데, 저장온도 25 및 37 ℃에서는 저장 2 h 이후부터 GSP 1%와 0% 간에 유의적인 차이는 나타나지 않았으나, 4 ℃ 저장의 경우 360 h에서 GSP 0% 첨가의 경우 0.99 μm로서 GSP 1% 첨가의 경우(0.72 μm)보다 큰 값을 나타내었다. GSP가 입자 침전 속도에 미치는 영향인 terminal velocity는 저장온도 25 및 37 ℃에서는 유의적인 차이는 나타나지 않았으나, 4 ℃ 저장의 경우 360 h 후 GSP 0%와 1% 첨가하였을 때 각각 0.31 mm/h, 0.16 mm/h로 측정되어, GSP를 첨가하는 경우에 terminal velocity를 낮추었다. 위의 결과를 토대로, 천연 계면활성제인 사포닌은 두유의 상분리를 억제하여 저장 안정성을 향상시키는 효과가 있음을 확인하였다.

Fish skin peptide-loaded liposomes were prepared in 100 mL and 1 L solution as lab scales, and 10 L solution as a prototype scale. The particle size and zeta potential were measured to determine the optimal conditions for the production of fish skin peptide-loaded liposome. The liposome was manufactured by the following conditions: (1) primary homogenization at 4,000 rpm, 8,000 rpm, and 12,000 rpm for 3 minutes; (2) secondary homogenization at 40 watt (W), 60 W, and 80 W for 3 minutes. From this experimental design, the optimal conditions of homogenization were selected as 4,000 rpm and 60 W. For the next step, fish peptides were prepared as the concentrations of 3, 6, and 12% at the optimum manufacturing conditions of liposome and stored at 4ºC. Particle size, polydispersion index (pdI), and zeta potential of peptide-loaded liposome were measured for its stability. Particle size increased significantly as manufacture scale and peptide concentration increased, and decreased over storage time. The zeta potential results increased as storage time increased at 10 L scale. In addition, 12% peptide showed the formation of a sediment layer after 3 weeks, and 6% peptide was considered to be the most suitable for industrial application.

두유는 단백질, 지질, 다당류 등이 에멀션과 서스펜션 형태로 혼합된 분산 시스템이다. 두유의 안정성은 제조조건과 균질화 방법에 따른 입자의 크기와 열처리 조건 등에 의하여 크게 영향을 받으며, 일반적으로 점증제와 계면활성제를 사용하여 향상시킬 수 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 양친매성의 진세노사이드를 함유한 인삼 분말의 첨가와 열처리가 고압 균질화하여 제조한 비지 분리 두유의 안정화에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 전두유의 비지를 분리한 후 2% (w/w)의 인삼 분말을 첨가하였으며, 이때 진세노사이드 함량(Rg1, Rb1, 및 Rg3의 합량)은 0.088 mg/100g soy milk 이었다. 이후 두유를 열처리(90°C, 10 min)하거나 열처리 하지 않고 고압 균질화(4500 psi)하여 인삼 분말을 함유한 비지 분리 두유를 제조하였다. 제조한 두유 샘플들의 고형분 함량은 6.7-7.5% (w/w), pH는 6.4-6.8, 제타 포텐셜은 -7-0.3 mV, 입도 크기는 17-23 μm 범위에서 측정되었다. 두유의 저장 안정성은 두유를 45 ml 유리관에 넣고 25°C에서 144 h 동안 저장하면서 분리된 상층부와 하층부의 입도크기, 투과도, 상분리 현상 등을 측정하여 분석하였다. 인삼 분말을 첨가하지 않은 비열처리 두유의 경우, 저장 중 상층부의 입도 크기는 21.6±0.2 μm에서 6.6±0.4 μm로 감소하였고 투과도는 5.2±0.0%에서 77.3±0.1%로 급격히 증가하였다. 2%의 인삼 분말을 첨가한 비열처리 두유의 경우, 저장 중 상층부의 입도 크기는 21.6±0.1 μm에서 38.5±3.1 μm와 투과도는 0.8±0.0%에서 58.1±0.1%로 각각 증가하였다. 인삼 분말을 첨가하지 않은 열처리 두유의 경우, 저장 중 상층부의 입도크기는 17.4±2.4 μm에서 1.1±0.0 μm로 감소하였고 투과도는 7.3±0.1에서 14.0±0.1로 증가하였다. 2% 인삼 분말을 첨가한 열처리 두유의 경우, 상층부의 입도 크기는 22.9±0.4-24.9±0.5 μm, 투과도는 1.0±0.0-4.3±0.1% 범위에서 일정한 값을 유지하여 가장 높은 저장 안정성을 나타내었다. 저장 중 하층부에서는 인삼 분말첨가와 열처리에 따른 입도크기와 투과도는 각각 12.5±0.9-24.5 μm와 0.3±0.0-7.3±0.1% 범위로써 유의적인 차이는 보이지 않았다.

Solder paste is widely used as a conductive adhesive in the electronics industry. In this paper, nano and microsized mixed lead-free solder powder (Sn-Ag-Cu) is used to manufacture solder paste. The purpose of this paper is to improve the storage stability using different types of solvents that are used in fabricating the solder paste. If a solvent of sole acetate is used, the nano sized solder powder and organic acid react and form a Sn-Ag-Cu malonate. These formed malonates create fatty acid soaps. The fatty acid soaps absorb the solvents and while the viscosity of the solder paste rises, the storage stability and reliability decrease. When ethylene glycol, a dihydric alcohol, is used the fatty acid soaps and ethylene glycol react, preventing the further creation of the fatty acid soaps. The prevention of gelation results in an improvement in the solder paste storage ability.

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.

This study investigated the stability of ethanolic extract from fermented Cirsium setidens Nakai (FCSN) in order to develop functional materials during different storage conditions. We evaluated pectolinarin and pectolinarigenin contents, total phenol content and antioxidant activity (DPPH radical scavenging activity and FRAP assay) of ethanolic extract from FCSN obtained by bioconverison at various temperatures (4, 25 and 50℃) and pHs (4.0, 7.0 and 10.0). Our results show that the pectolinarin, pectolinarigenin, and total phenol contents in ethanolic extract from FCSN were decreased during the storage periods. Moreover, the DPPH radical scavenging activity did not significantly change at 4℃ and 25℃. Pectolinarin and pectolinarigenin contents, total phenol content and DPPH radical scavenging activity of ethanolic extract from FCSN at acidic pH (pH 4.0) and neutral pH (pH 7.0) were higher than those at the alkaline pH range. These results indicate that the optimum storage condition of the ethanolic extract from FCSN was 4℃ and pH 4.0~7.0 range.

Edible insects have gained recognition worldwide as complementary protein sources. Recently, four edible insects were newly allowed to be used as food materials in Korea: the mealworm (Tenebrio molitor), the cricket (Velarifictorus asperses), the white-spotted flower chaffer beetle larva (Protaetia brevitarsis seulensis), and the rhinoceros beetle larva (Allomyrina dichotoma). In this study, we evaluated the oxidative stabilities of these four edible insects during cold storage. The insects were sacrificed by blanching for 3 minutes in boiling water. The blanched insects were then stored at 4℃ in an incubator for 42 days. The color values, titratable acidity, peroxide values, acid values, TBARS, contents of VBN, and total plate counts of the insects were measured at days 0, 2, 4, 7, 10, 14, 21, 28, 35, and 42, respectively. Blanching decreases oxidative stresses during storage. At day 0, the white-spotted flower chaffer beetle larva showed the highest values for acid value, TBARS, VBN, and microbial counts. Most of the oxidative indicators were significantly changed at day 14 in all four insects, possibly related with the growth on all microbial plates. Based on microbial safety and the oxidative stabilities of lipids and proteins, optimal storage conditions for the cricket, the white-spotted flower chaffer beetle larva, and the rhinoceros beetle larva were 10~14 days at 4℃. Likewise, the mealworm showed rapid oxidation after day 14, but poor qualities were not observed until day 28.

Fruit peels are potential sources of proteases which can help to the proteins digestion and the encapsulation technique is widely used in food industry, which preserves active ingredients in food products by forming coating membrane. In the present study, the effect of addition of encapsulated fruit peels (kiwi, T1; pineapple, T2; pear, T3; fig, T4) on the quality stability of press ham was studied during refrigerated storage (1, 15 and 30 days). In the first experiment, the press ham was prepared with either encapsulated fruit peels or fruit peels powder (without encapsulation) and we observed that the press ham formulated with fruit peels powder showed a texture defect, but no change with encapsulated fruit peels probably due to the proteolytic activity of proteases were prevented by the encapsulation. In the second experiment, the press ham were made with 0.1% encapsulated fruit peels or normal press ham (control) and stored at different days as mentioned above. Our results revealed that T2 showed the highest moisture content, while the control had the highest fat content. The press hams made with all types of encapsulated fruit peels had significantly higher hardness value than the control throughout the storage. Additionally, higher taste, texture and acceptability scores were found in the press ham with encapsulated fruit peels than those in the control. Overall, it is suggested that the addition of encapsulated fruit peels into meat products may enhance the protein digestion and absorption during the digestive processes without the negative effect on texture and sensory traits.

본 연구에서는 붉은팥과 검정팥 종피에 함유된 천연색소에 대한 연구의 일환으로, 추출방법에 따른 색소 추출 효율과 저장안정제 첨가에 따른 저장 안정성과 특성을 검토하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 붉은팥 종피의 용액 추출 시 까지는 온도가 높을수록, 시간이 경과될수록 색소 추출 효율이 높게 나타났으나, 에서는 시간이 경과될수록 색소 추출효율이 감소하는 경향을 보이며 pH 조건에서는 pH 5가 가장 효율적이었다. 2. 검정팥 종피의 용액 추출 시 온도가 높을수록, 시간이 경과될수록 색소 추출 효율이 높게 나타났으며, pH 조건에서는 pH 5가 가장 효율적이었다. 3. 착액 추출 시, 붉은팥의 경우 pH 5의 전처리가 증류수보다 색소 추출량이 많았으며, 검정팥의 경우 단시간 전처리에서는 증류수가 pH 5에서 보다 색소 추출량이 많았지만, 4시간 이상의 전처리에서는 오히려 pH 5에서 많게 나타났다. 4. 저장 안정제로 Methionine을 첨가한 결과에서는 붉은팥 종피의 경우에는 첨가량이 많을수록, 검정팥 종피의 경우에는 10mmol첨가가 20mmol 첨가보다 안정 효과가 큰 것으로 나타났다.
