본 연구에서는 보통의 조리조건과 위생적 조리조건에서 김밥을 조리하였을 때에, 각 조리조건하에서의 식자재(원재료),조리자의 손, 조리환경(조리기구 및 조리실),그리고 완성된 김밥의 미생물 품질을 살펴보고 이를 토대로 김밥조리과정 중의 중요관리점(CCPs)을 관찰하였다. 김밥과 그 원재료, 조리자의 손, 그리고 조리기구(칼, 도마 및 김발)의 표준평판균, 대장균군, 분변성대장균군, 대장균, 황색포도상구균, 살모넬라균 등의 미생물을 식품공전에 준하여 측정하였으며 조리실의 미생물 오염도를 평가하였다. 모든 시료에서 대장균, 황색포도상구균 및 살모넬라균은 검출되지 않았으며 표준평판균, 대장균군 및 분변성대장균군은 보통의 조리조건에서보다 위생적 조건에서 현저하게 낮았다. 김밥 원재료 중 비가열재료에서는 가열재료보다 표준평판균 및 대장균군수가 많이 검출되었다. 두 조건에서조리실의 공중낙하균은 모두 양호한 수준이었다. 위생적 조리조건에서 만든 김밥은 보통의 조리조건에서 만든 김밥에 비하여 표준평판균과 대장균군이 1/100수준이었으나 아직 분변성대장균군이 검출되었다. 따라서 비가열재료, 조리기구 및 조리자의 손의 미생물 오염, 그리고 조리 중의 교차오염이 김밥 미생물 오염의 주요 근원으로 지적되며, 비가열재료의 취급, 조리기구의 세척과 소독 및 조리자의 손씻기 단계가 CCPs로 제시된다.

A hazard analysis which included watching operations, measuring temperatures of foods throughout preparation and display, and sampling and testing for microorganisms of total plate counts and coliform bacteria was conducted in various phases of product flow of Naeng-myeun (Cold noodles) and Pi-bim bab (mixed rice) prepared at Korean restaurants. Large numbers of total plate counts were counted from the cooked foods after handling and holding. Ingestion of these foods must be considered high risk. Critical control points identified were, pre-preparation, food handling after cooking, and holding on display in product flow of Nang-Meon and pre-preparation, preparation, and holding on display in product flow of Pi-bim bab. It need for effective quality control of Nang-Meon and Pi-bim bab that training program consist of surveillance, education of the staff, standard operation procedures, forbidding dangerous processes and control of critical points.

HACCP methodology was applied in the post-harvest processing and storage of domestic medicinal produces. Particularly in terms of mold and mycotoxin contamination, candidate critical control points (CCP) in the conventional practice in Korean farms were selected and monitored by comparing with on the standard guided processing and storage. When each processing of Angelicae Gigantis Radix were assessed for their safety, the drying steps such as the sun drying or the thermal drying depending on each farm made differences in mold contamination. Moreover, the storage conditions before or after the processing were another critical determinant in the fungal contamination. In other words, storage under 4˚C rather than at room temperature was favorable for reducing mold growth in the harvested crops. Occurrence rate of Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in Angelicae Gigantis Radix were 12.8%, but amount of AFB1 in all the collected samples were below 10 ppb regulatory limit allowed in Korea. However, for a few samples of Angelicae Gigantis Radix, still relatively high levels of total amount of the major aflatoxins (aflatoxin B1 + B2 + G1 + G2) were observed around 0.18~49.94 ppb, which is not regulated presently in Korea. It thus can be suggested that post-harvest processing and storage of Korean medicinal crops need further investigation and monitoring to establish the Good Agricultural Practice (GAP), particularly to minimize microbial risk including mold and mycotoxin contamination under the changing climate. Additionally, it is also warranted for new enacting of regulatory limits for total aflatoxins in the medicinal crops.
