This study attempted to establish the optimal conditions for storage of spring kimchi cabbage to stably control supply and demand. To this end, this study stored kimchi cabbages in various manners for different periods and compared the quality characteristics of kimchi using these cabbages. According to the results, pre-drying with photocatalytic and pre-cooling treatments showed average selectivity loss rates of 18.83 and 21.37%, respectively, which were lower than those of other treatments. Spring kimchi cabbages were stored for 15 weeks under various conditions, and the kimchi was stored for 4 weeks at 4°C. After ripening, each kimchi was analyzed for their soluble solid content, pH, acidity, and salinity. The average pH of kimchi was 4.60 and tended to rise, whereas average acidity was 0.38% and fell by 0.24 to 0.31% as the storage period was extended. Extension of the storage period caused decreases in soluble solid content and salinity, and the number of lactic acid bacteria decreased due to increased pH and reduced acidity (p<0.05). Sensory evaluation showed that all experts and non-professionals preferred kimchi treated by precooling compared to any other treatment.

To stabilize the supply of kimchi by extending the storage period of spring kimchi cabbage, this study manufactured kimchi from spring kimchi cabbage under varying storage conditions and periods, and analyzed their quality and sensory characteristics following the maturing period. Trimming loss was lowest in the group of plasma+reverse direction+predrying+ HDPE film processing. The salting yield of spring kimchi cabbage stored for 12 weeks was lower than that of spring kimchi cabbage stored for 6 weeks, and the kimchi yield was low in the pre-treatment group of spring kimchi cabbage stored for 12 weeks. The firmness was slightly different according to the storage period from one month of maturation. From the perspective of pH and acidity, the maturation in the reverse direction+pre-drying+HDPE film processing group was slower than that in the normal group (<0.05). In the sensory evaluation, the preference was increased in the low temperature storage processing group as the maturation period was increased (<0.05).

Vegetable seed oils (VSOs) have been extracted and used not only as ingredients in food and as sources of dietary lipids, but also as sources of nutraceuticals used to overcome the various oxidative stresses that contribute to the development of diseases, including cancer and other chronic conditions. The chemical compositions and oxidative stabilities of various VSOs were therefore investigated; samples were stored for 35 d, with each oil having been tested under O2 exposure, sealed from O2 exposure and sealed from O2 exposure while containing O2 scavengers. Oxidative stability was evaluated by peroxide value (POV), p-anisidine value (p-AnV), iodine value (IV), and thiobarbituric acid (TBA) value. Perilla seed and flaxseed oil were mostly composed of linolenic acid (45.5% and 59.7%, respectively), whereas pine seed oil was mostly composed of linoleic acid (48.3%). Meanwhile, camellia seed and olive oils contained 80% oleic acid, which correlated strongly with oxidative stability. The POV, p-AnV, and TBA values were the highest under O2 exposure, and the lowest in the presence of O2 scavengers. These results indicate that VOS oxidative stability depends not only on storage conditions, but on unsaturated fatty acid profiles as well.

RSM (response surface method) is a statistical method that optimizes a response variable (dependent variable) according to multiple explanatory variables (independent variable) [1]. RSM visualizes responses of the target depending on experimental conditions, using a regression equation containing an intercept, and coefficients of first-order, second-order, and interactive terms (equation 1). Response surface experimental design is a method for designing RSM experiments [2] which aims to identify the optimal number of trials (number of data points) and number of conditions (range of experimental variables) according to the order of the regression model. Generally, the number of trials in an experiment is composed of central points, factorial points, and axial (or star) points, which varies depending on the number of variables. In this study, we used three widely used response surface experimental designs, i.e., simplex, central composite, and equiradial designs to propose experimental set-up applicable for a future study regarding the effects of storage conditions (e.g., temperature and humidity) on glucosinolate content.

Curcuma alismatifolia ‘Chiangmai Pink’는 분홍색 화 포를 가지고 있으며 작은 꽃을 가지고 있다. Curcuma alismatifolia ‘Chiangmai Pink’는 하나의 근경에 2 ~ 5개의 괴근이 연결되어 있으며 C. thorelii ‘Chiangmai Snow’의 하나의 근경에 3 ~ 18개의 괴근이 연결되어 있다. 괴근은 11월에 수확하여 이듬해 4월에 식재하였다. 괴근을 3 ~ 6 개 가지고 있는 ‘Chiangmai Snow’의 개화율은 86%였으 나 15 ~ 18개 가지고 있는 것은 거의 100%를 나타냈다. 괴근 2개를 가지고 있는 ‘Chiangmai Pink’의 개화율은 50%였으나 5개 가진 것은 70%의 개화율을 보였다. C. alismatifolia ‘Chiangmai Pink’와 C. thorelii ‘Chiangmai Snow’는 괴근수가 많을수록 출아일, 화뢰출현기 및 개화 기가 단축되었으며, 초장, 화경장 및 화서장이 증가되었 고, 개화율과 수명이 증가되는 경향을 보였다. 또한 식 재 전 구근의 저장온도는 20oC에 비해 25oC 및 30oC의 경 우 정식 후 맹아가 출현되기까지의 일수가 감소되었다. 또 한 건식저장보다 습식과 상토저장 시에 맹아출현 소요일 수가 크게 단축되었다.

Quality changes of retort pouched curry sauces were studied under various sterilization and storage conditions. The retort pouched curry sauces sterilized at 110oC for 30 min and stored at 37oC showed the lowest sensory qualities among the tested samples. Meanwhile, when the sample was sterilized at 101oC for 60 min and stored at 4oC, the quality changes of the sauces were not significant during 30 days of storage. The taste sensing results of curry sauces showed that there were not a lot of changes in flavor when stored at 4oC while the sauces stored at 37oC showed increases in bitterness and sourness which eventually caused degradation of total quality. Sensory evaluation results of the samples stored at 4oC (4.3 points) and at 37oC (3.5 points) also coincided with the taste sensing results. Conclusively, it is desirable to sterilize the retort pouched curry sauce at 101oC for 60 min and to store at 4oC until consumption (if possible, within 30 days). Further, the acid value (1.01) and pH (3.88) of curry sauces were found to be used as quality change indices for references.

Blanching and freezing of beef are important techniques used in developing frozen home meal replacement (HMR) products. These pre-thermal treatments minimize the deterioration of beef during storage. Beefs are washed, defatted, sliced (5.0×0.5×0.5 cm, fiber direction), and blanched by immersion in hot water for 2 min. Thereafter, the blanched beefs are spin-dried and frozen by individual quick freezing (IQF) method. Finally, the frozen beefs are packed using two methods: vacuum packages and air-containing packages. Packed beefs are stored at -12oC, -18oC, and -24oC for nine months. One in every three months, they are thawed in a microwave (400W). While thawing, vacuum-packed samples possess lower thawing loss than air-containing-packed ones. Compared to raw beef, blanched beef have a higher L* and lower a* value. However, less changes are observed after blanching the beefs as the enzymes get inactivated in the blanching process. Shear force of beef also increase through blanching. Moreover, vacuum-packed samples have maintained their hardness to a greater extent than the air-containing-packed samples. All the samples have met microbial safety standards. Thus, it is inferred that vacuum-packaging and -18oC storage temperatures are the best condition for maintaining beef that is later developed into HMR product.

Obesity, most often defined as a body mass index (BMI) of ≥30 kg/m2 caused by an imbalance between energyintake and expenditure. It is widely recognized as the largest and fastest growing public health problem in the developed anddeveloping world. Obesity results by an increase in adipose tissue mass, resulting from the multiplication of fat cells fol-lowed by adipogenesis and increased deposition of intracellular cytoplasmic triglycerides. In this study, we investigated theanti-adipogenic properties of the extracts (KEs) obtained from Kimchi (Korean traditional fermented vegetable) fermentedusing Kimchi refrigerator under different storage conditions. The intracellular lipid droplets in the differentiated adipocyteswere also measured. We observed that the KEs significantly lower the contents of cellular triglyceride and formation ofintracellular lipid droplets. These results suggested that KEs have anti-adipogenic effects and may contribute to food indus-tries in developing functional.

배추김치 제조 후 익힘 시간 및 김치 냉장고 저장 기간에 따른 김치의 위 암세포 증식 억제 효능 변화를 측정해 본 결과, 저장 30일 김치 시료 기준으로 익힘 과정을 거치지 않은 S0h 시료에 비하여 46시간의 익힘 과정을 거친 S46h 시료의 효능이 가장 우수하였고, 이어서 S47h, S48h 시료의 효능이 우수하였다. 그리고 S0h 경우는 상대적으로 암세포 증식 억제 효능이 가장 약하였다. 이는 적정 발효에 따른 발효 대사산물, 그리고 유산균 속 및 종 변화에 기인한 결과로 판단되며, 항암 효능 보유물질로 알려진 GABA의 농도와도 연관이 있을 수 있음을 제안해 주고 있다. 김치는 다양한 재료 유래의 기능성 물질, 대사산물 및 유산균을 보유하고 있는 발효식품이다. 따라서 본 연구는 김치제조 후 최적의 숙성 시간과 저장 기간을 선택하면 항암 기능성이 증진된 김치를 섭취할 수 있는 것을 제안해 주고 있다.

본 연구는 다양한 조건에서 장기 보존한 느티만가닥버섯 균주의 균사 생존력과 재배성능 검증을 수행하였다. 균사 생존력은 장기 보존된 균주를 9, 21,33, 45개월 단위로 해동하여 PDA 평판배지에 접종한 다음 1, 2, 3, 4, 5차 계대배양에 따른 균사 생장길이를 측정하여 검증하였다. 액체질소에 보존한 균사를 해동 직후 실시한 1차 계대배양에서는 동결보호제로써 Glycerol 10%를 단용으로 처리한 실험구에서균사생장이 저조한 결과를 나타내었으나, 5차 계대배양에서는 버섯 균사의 생장력이 다른 실험구와 동일한 수준으로 회복되어, 저장방법에 따른 균사의 생존력에는 큰 영향이 없는것으로 판단된다. 그러나 느티만가닥버섯을 액체 질소에 장기간 보존하고자 할 때는 동결보호제로 사용되는 Glycerol 10%에 Trehalose5%를 첨가하여 보존해야 균사의 생존력을 유지하는데 도움이 된다.장기 저장에 따른 느티만가닥버섯 균주의 재배 성능 시험에서는 4oC 사면배지에 보호제로써 mineraloil을 사용하는 것이 사면배지 자체로 보존하는 것에비해 수확량이 감소하는 결과를 나타내므로 장기 저장시에 mineral oil을 사용하는 것은 지양해야 할 것으로 판단된다.

이 연구에서는 참깨 과립종자의 저장 시 활력손실 정도를 파악하여 적정한 저장 방법을 규명하기 위하여 저장고의 온도 를 4, 15, 25oC로 하고 상대습도를 40, 60, 80%로 달리하여 1개월 간격으로 4개월간 저장기간별로 종자의 수분함량 및 활력유지 정도를 비교하였다. 1. 무처리 종자의 수분함량이 가장 높게 나타났으며 점토 단 독처리이거나 점토성분이 함유된 과립에서는 수분함량이 많았 고, 활석처리에서는 종자수분함량이 가장 낮게 나타났다. 2. 상대습도가 80%일 때는 4oC에서 15oC와 25oC일 때보다 종자수분함량이 높게 나타났다. 3개월째는 종자수분함량이 가 장 높았으며 이때 발아율은 가장 낮았다. 3. 종자활력검사결과를 종합해보면 점토+질석의 조합으로 과 립화할 경우 15oC이하이면서 상대습도 80%이하로 저장할 경 우 50%이상의 활력을 3개월 이상 유지할 수 있었다. 그러나 25oC로 저장할 경우 2개월까지만 가능하였다. 점토 +피트모 스 +활석의 조합으로 과립화할 경우 15oC이하이면서 상대습 도 80%이하의 조건에서 2개월까지 50% 이상의 활력유지가 가능하였지만, 25oC이하와 상대습도 80%이하의 조건에서는 1 개월까지만 저장 가능하였다. 활석 단독으로 과립화할 경우 25oC이하 및 상대습도 80%이하의 조건에서 1개월까지만 저장 가능하였다. 따라서 점토+질석의 조합으로 과립화하였을 때 종 자의 저장수명이 가장 긴 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구는 국내육성 프리지어 절화 ‘Shiny Gold’에 대한 습 식 저장의 효과를 알아보고, 적합한 저장 온도 및 기간을 구명 하고자 수행하였다. 프리지어는 1, 3, 5oC에서 4, 8, 12일 동 안 습식과 건식으로 저장되었다. 습식저장이 건식저장보다 프리지 어 절화 ‘Shiny Gold’의 수명을 연장시켰으며, 개화율을 약 10% 정도 향상시켰다. 1oC에 저장된 ‘Shiny Gold’는 3oC와 5oC에 저장된 것보다 절화 수명과 품질이 좋았다. 저장기간별 절화 수명은 4일 동안 저장이 12일 동안 저장된 것보다 약 1~2일 정도 연장되었고, 프리지어 절화 ‘Shiny Gold’는 8일 이상 저장이 어려웠다. 따라서 프리지어 절화 ‘Shiny Gold’의 수명을 연장하고, 품질을 유지하기 위해서는 습식방법으로 1oC에 4일 동안 저장하는 것이 적합하다고 판단된다.

This study was conducted to investigate of changes for organic acids in takju during storage conditions. Two types of takju, unsterilized and sterilized, were used. Acetic acid, citric acid, lactic acid, malic acid and succinic acid were detected in sample. Residues of malic acid was not detected after 7 days storage in room temperature( 25oC). In contrast to lactic acid was increased by times after storage. Acetic acid concentrations was gradually increased in room temperature but was not changed in cold temperature(4oC). After storage for 10 days, the organic acid residues lactic acid > citric acid > succinic acid > malic acid > acetic acid in unsterilized takju. Compared to unsterilized sample, organic acid residues in sterilized sample was not significantly changed. Consequently, organic acids residues mainly affected by sterilization.

We surveyed the sanitary conditions for 17 cold and frozen food storage warehouses in Korea,using the following 5 inspections items: “putting into warehouse (A)”, “prevention of cross-contamination (B)”, “storage management (C)”, “temperature control (D)”, and “management of records and documents (E)”, We included 20detailed items. The results of distribution for frequency by five major inspection items showed that “(E)” was the highest,the next “(D)”, “(C)”; and “(B)” was the lowest. In the correlation of inspection scores between total scores, “(B)”and “(C)” were highly related to the total score, therefore, the higher score of “(B)” or “(C)”, the higher for the total score. In details of inspection items, “the management of cross-contamination upon taking product out of the warehouse”had the lowest score with a mean, of 2.67 ± 1.80, and also ranked as first of the 20 items.

Pouch에 넣은 전복의 함량을 변화 시켜 전열 특성을 측정한 결과, 전복의 함량이 증가하고 살균 온도가 감소할수록 가열 치사 시간이 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 121.1oC와 같은 열 처리 효과를 나타내도록 다른 온도(110oC, 125oC, 130oC)에서 각각 전복장을 제조 하여 관능 평가를 실시한 결과, 125oC에서 열처리 한 전복장이 조직감과 맛 선호도가 가장 높았다. 125oC에서 열처리한 전복장을 7개월 동안 상온에서 저장하면서 검사한 결과 pH, 염도에서는 큰 변화는 보이지 않았고 조직 강도는 3개월부터 급격하게 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 또한 총 미생물 검사 에서는 호기성, 혐기성 미생물이 모두 검출 되지 않았으나 조직감을 고려했을 때 약 3개월 정도 보관하는 것이 적합할 것으로 사료되었다.

This study was carried to investigate the suitable conditions of Pleurotus eryngii through precooling for the more long-term freshness. The time to be same temperatures between P. eryngii and storage room through precooling at 0℃ and 4℃ were showed 2 hours and 5.5 hours, respectively. P. eryngii was cooled within 6 hours and 18 hours at 0℃ and 4℃ with two type, forced air cooling and pressure cooling.

This study presents the thermal analyses of a spent fuel dry storage cask under normal and off-normal conditions. The environmental temperature is assumed to be 15 under the normal condition. The off-normal condition has an environmental temperature of 38 . An additional off-normal condition is considered as a partial blockage of the air inlet ducts. Two of the four air inlet ducts are assumed to be completely blocked. The significant thermal design feature of the storage cask is the air flow path used to remove the decay heat from the spent fuel. Natural circulation of the air inside the cask allows the concrete and fuel cladding temperatures to be maintained below the allowable values. The finite volume computational fluid dynamics code FLUENT was used for the thermal analysis. The maximum temperatures of the fuel rod and concrete overpack were lower than the allowable values under the normal and off-normal conditions.
