Changes in the Quality of Sweet Persimmon Fruits with Packaging Methods during Low Temperature Storage

저온저장시 포장방법에 따른 단감의 품질변화

This studies were carried out to investigate the physical properties and quality of sweet persimmon fruits which packaged with polyethylene for improvement of quality and storage. The fruits which packed 5 fruits a pack by 0.06mm PE film was maintained freshness during 120 days of storage, but those which packaged a fruit was maintained freshens during 150 days of storage, and quality of fruits was excellent during storage. It was more excellent quality of fruits packaged 5 fruits a pack with 0.08 and 0.10mm PE film than quality of those packaged by 0.06mm PE film. Hardness of fruits were decreased during storage, and the color of fruits was changed. But the fruits which packaged each with 0.08mm PE film was maitained freshens during 180 days of storage, and the quality of fruits was excellent during storage. The hardness and color of fruits were net changed during storage.

본 연구에서는 단감의 저장성을 향상시키고자 polythylene 필름 포장방법에 따른 단감의 물성 및 품질의 변화를 조사하였다. 저장방법에 따른 단감의 품질 변화는 농가에서 사용하는 5개씩 포장하여 저온저장시에는 저장 120일가지 저장성을 유지하였고, 1개씩 포장한 경우에는 저장 150일가지 저장이 가능하였고, 품질면에서 아주 우수한 것으로 판정되었다. PE 필름 두께에 따른 품질의 변화는 일반 농가에 사용하고 있는 0.06mm PE 필름으로 포장한 것은 저장성이 떨어졌고 0.08과 0.10mm PE 필름으로 포장시에는 0.06mm PE 필름에 비해 저장성이 증가되었고 품질면에서도 우수하였다. 저장중 경도와 색상은 저장일가 증가함에 따라 약간 감소하는 경향이었고, 특히 1개씩 0.08mm PE 필름으로 포장시 저장 180일까지도 경도와 색상이 수확시와 차이가 없었다.
