Black soldier fly (BSF, Hermetia illucens) has been noted as an excellent feed ingredient. However, there is limited information on rearing and processing technology. Thus, this study was conducted to evaluate the substrates for rearing BSF and the optimal processing method for BSF performance. Study separated as 2 experiment, BSF rearing and drying method(Exp 1.) and EP-processing method(exp 2.). During the study, 30 clutches were reared, with 10 per substrate. Three substrates, namely food waste (FW), tofu by-product (TF), and vegetable waste with two drying methods, namely hot air dry (AD) and microwave dry (MW) at expanding (EP) ratios of 5:5 and 7:3, were examined by evaluating their rearing performance, nutrient contents, in vitro digestibility and lipid oxidation stability during storage (0, 14 and 28 days). In experiment 1, the rearing substrates and drying methods were evaluated. Compared with that of conventional methods (FW, AD), the TF substrates and MW method showed higher dry matter contents (3.43%) and in vitro digestibility (1.62%) but lower ether extract contents(3.53%; p<0.05). However, the malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration under MW treatments decreased during storage (5.77%, 4.69% and 3.24%; p<0.05). In experiment 2, compared with that of the 7:3 EP-BSF ratio, the 5:5 EP-BSF ratio showed higher in vitro digestibility (2.70%) and lower MDA concentration during storage (19.19%, 7.96% and 6.42%; p<0.05). In conclusion, the optimal conditions for BSF rearing and ensuring product quality were TF substrates, MW methods and a 5:5 corn:BSF ratio. Therefore, the optimal conditions for producing EP-BSF can present an excellent feed ingredient alternative for swine feed.

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.

본 연구는 기능성 물질인 알로에를 종류별로 첨가함에 따라 유화소시지의 이화학적 특성과 저장성, 그리고 관능성에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해 수행되었다. 알로에 베라(AV구)와 알로에 사포나리아(AS구)는 각 3%씩 첨가하였으며, 모든 처리구들은 냉장온도 4±1℃에서 4주간 저장하면서 주 1회 간격으로 실험이 진행되었다. pH는 AV구와 AS구가 대조구보다 유의적(p<0.05)으로 낮았고, 저장기간의 경과함에 따라 대조구 및 모든 처리구는 증가하였다. 보수성에서 AS구는 대조구와 AV구보다 유의적(p<0.05)으로 높은 값을 나타냈으며, 저장기간의 경과함에 따라 대조구 및 모든 처리구는 유의적(p<0.05)으로 감소하였다. 적색도는 AS구가 대조구 및 AV구 보다 낮은 값을 나타내었고, 황색도는 AS구가 대조구, AV구보다 높은 값을 나타내었다. 전단가는 AS구가 대조구보다 낮은 값을 나타냈으며, AV구와는 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 지방 산패도에서 AS구는 유의적 (p<0.05)으로 가장 낮은 값을 나타내었고, 관능 평가의 색은 AV구가 가장 높은 값을 나타냈으며, 선호도는 AV구가 대조구보다 높은 값을 나타냈고 AS구와는 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 이는 알로에 사포나리아의 첨가가 높은 보수성, 알로에 베라 첨가보다 낮은 지방산패도, 유사한 관능성을 나타내 기능성 소시지의 개발에 충분한 경쟁력을 가지고 있으며 향후 알로에 사포나리아를 첨가한 육제품의 일반화 및 대량생산 체계의 확립에 긍정적인 영향을 준다고 판단된다.

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.

생육, 습식 숙성육, 건식 숙성육을 종류별 3종을 구입하여 냉장 상태로 보관하면서 pH, 휘발성 염기질소(VBN), 미생물 정량, 우점균을 분석하였다. 초기 생육, 건식 숙성 육의 중온균은 3.3-3.9 Log CFU/g, 습식 숙성육은 경우 5.4 Log CFU/g 이였으나, 냉장으로 18일 보관 후 생육과 건식 숙성육에 존재하는 중온균은 6.1-6.4 Log CFU/g로 증가하였다. 습식 숙성육의 경우 Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) 는 냉장 보관시 4.5-6.0 Log CFU/g으로 나타났으나, 건식 숙성육에서는 검출되지 않았다. 저장 기간이 길어짐에 따라 중온균, 저온균, LAB, 효모 및 곰팡이 수가 증가하였으나, 식품매개 병원성 미생물은 검출되지 않았다. 식육의 오염 및 부패 판단은 7 Log CFU/g 이상으로 규정하고 있어 본 연구 결과에 의하면 12일 이상 냉장 보관하였을 경우 6-7 Log CFU/g으로 기준을 초과하였다. 이 때 VBN이 평균 15 mg%으로 부패의 초기 단계로 판단 할 수 있었다. 냉장 보관에 따른 우점 미생물은 다양한 양상으로 나타냈 다. 생육에서는 초기 우점균으로 S. saprophyticus가 분석 되었으나, VBN이 증가함에 따라 Carnobacterium divergens 가 우점하는 양상을 나타냈다. 습식 숙성육에서 Carnobacterium divergens가 냉장보관 초기에 우점 미생물로 분석되었으나, 이후 Lactobacillus sakei가 우점균으로 분석되었다. 건식 숙성육의 경우 Dermacoccus nishinomiyaensis 가 냉장보관 초기에 우점하였으나 이후 Pseudomonas fragi 가 우점균으로 변화하였다. 부패의 초기 단계에서 특정 박 테리아의 역할 외에도 부패, 향기 분석 및 숙성 육류의 성분 변화에 대한 연구를 수행하여 숙성 육류의 안전한 유통 및 보관에 활용할 수 있다고 판단된다.

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.

This study was conducted to evaluate the acceptability of cured cooked boneless chicken drumettes as a raw material for Chuncheon Dakgalbi and to observe its effect on pH, lipid oxidation, volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) content and total viable count (TVC) during refrigerated storage under vacuum. Boneless chicken drumettes were dry cured with a mixed curing agent (0.20% w/w) consisting of sodium chloride (93.1%), sodium nitrite (5.9%) and sodium bicarbonate (1.0%) for 24 h at 2±2℃. Cured samples were cooked using an oven at 150℃ for 20 min and stored at 5.5±0.5℃ for 60 days under vacuum. Non-cured cooked sample was used as a control. Sensory evaluation was performed on day 2 of storage using 22 untrained panelists and samples were mixed with Dakgalbi sauce and reheated using a microwave for 2 min. There were no significant differences between control and treatment group on appearance, flavor, texture, juiciness and overall acceptability. Cured cooked boneless chicken drumettes had significantly (p<0.05) higher pH, lower lipid oxidation, VBN and TVC consistently during storage in comparison with control. These results suggest that dry curing could be applied to boneless chicken drumettes as raw material for Chuncheon Dakgalbi and could extend its shelf life during refrigerated storage under vacuum.

The objective of this study was to investigate changes in drying yield, pH, water activity, microbial growth, and storage stability of bottom rounds of Hanwoo beef under four different dry-aging treatments (T1–T4) as temperature (2~4℃), relative humidity (65~86%) and dry-aging period (20~90 d). The drying yield decreased by 83.13–97.05% as the drying period increased. Among the four treatments, there were no significant differences in drying yield after 60 d of dry-aging. The total plate aerobic counts (TPC) increased by 1.07–4.39 log colony-forming units (CFU)/g as the dry-aging period increased. Of the four treatments, T4 at 40, 60, and 90 d had significantly higher TPCs than those observed for the other treatments on the same days (p<0.05). As the period of dry-aging increased, pH values increased by 5.35– 5.88 for knuckle and 5.34–5.62 for sirloin muscle, and water activity values decreased. For knuckle and sirloin muscle, the water activity values at 40 d and 60 d of T1 and T4 were significantly higher than those of the other treatments on the same days (p<0.05). The thiobarbituric reactive substances and volatile basic nitrogen values of the aged products increased as the dry-aging period increased. The results of this study showed that dry-aging conditions such as those in the T2 or T3 treatments (with a gradual increase in temperature and humidity) for less than 60 d would be best for yield, reduction of microbial growth and storage stability by dry the muscle surface quickly at the beginning period. Further research should include meat quality and economic analysis for these conditions that examines the benefits of these dry-aged products for the end processor.

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.

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 objective of this study was to investigate the non-thermal sterilization effect of methods such as high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) and UV-irradiation (specifically with regard to the storage stability and shelf-life of carrot juice. The microbial counts of the non-sterilized product increased from 5.51 to 7.34 log CFU/mL up to the fifth day, and then decreased to 5.46 log CFU/mL at six days. UV-irradiation was increased from 2.37 to 4.92 log CFU/mL. HHP was maintained under the 3 log CFU/mL. The pH of UV-irradiation and HHP was maintained withing the range of 6.29~6.30 and 6.20~6.22 during storage. However, the pH arising from non-sterilization decreased from 6.31 to 4.49. The color of non-sterilization changed significantly during storage, but UV-irradiation and HHP were similar during storage. The β- carotene content of non-sterilization was noted to have decreased from 269.45 to 65.19 μg/mL during storage. The UV- irradiation and HHP decreased from 263.46 and 268.35~281.16 μg/mL to 243.42 and 244.09~269.29 μg/mL, respectively. In conclusion, these findings suggest that HHP can be used for the pasteurization, or sterilization, of carrot juice and the optimal condition is two minutes.

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.

The exosomes are the most studied nanometer-sized extracellular vesicles (40-100 nm) in eukaryotic cell. Exosomeharbors various molecular components of their cell origin, including nucleic acids and proteins, and it is involved in intraand intercellular communication. These characteristics make exosomes to be a prospective biomarkers, therapeutic agents,or drug delivery vehicles. Edible insect industry is rapidly growing up in Korea. The insect exosomes were isolated fromthe larvae of Korean rhinoceros beetle, Allomyrina dichotoma, and White-spotted flower chafer, Protaetia brevitarsis, sothat they can be used for diagnosis of insect disease. The stable preservation of exosome is very important for diagnosisand research, especially for long term storage. Here, the stable recovery of exosome isolated from hemolymph of A. dichotomalarva was evaluated by analyzing exosomal protein and RNA after storage in -70°C for three months.
