The Korean fresh pork loins in vacuum packaged were obtained from three different Korean export companies and investigated for their proximate composition and physico-chemical characteristics. The fresh pork loins were stored at 2$^{\circ}C$ for 50 days and analyzed with an interval of 5∼10 days. In proximate analyses, the moisture contents of pork loins from the company I were higher, the protein contents from the company II were higher, and fat contents from the companies II and III were higher compared to those from the other companies. The pH of loins increased as storage period increased. The shear value of loins from company II showed significantly lower level and tended to decrease during storage. However, the water holding capacity and the purge loss of loins from company II increased during storage periods.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of L. casei KCTC 3109 on physico-chemical characteristics and TBARS values of fermented pork meat. Each pork meat were allotted to two treatments ; Control (0%), T1 (supplemented with L. casei KCTC 3109 10%). The pH tenderness and water holding capacity (WHC) of T1 were higher than those of control (p<0.05), cooking loss of control was higher than T1. Water content, crude fat and ash were not significantly different, crude protein was higher in T1 compared with control (p<0.05). L*, a* and b* values of control were higher than those of T1 (p<0.05). TBARS values was higher in T1 (0.02 MA mg/1,000 g) than control (0.19 MA mg/1,000 g) (p<0.05).

The possibility of using the dried powder form of Sarcodon aspratus fruitbody (a kind of mushrooms) as a meat tenderizer was explored in this study. The freeze dried powder had higher protease activity compared to the hot air dried powder of S. aspratus. The powder kept higher activity when preserved at -2$0^{\circ}C$ than at ambient temperature. The hardness of the meat decreased and the cooking loss increased more rapidly when the meat was treated with the mushroom powder at ambient temperature than at -4$^{\circ}C$. In terms of sensory evaluation, 0.1% of the powder based on the meat and 3 hours of treatment at 4$^{\circ}C$ gave the highest acceptability score. In the comparison test the meat was more acceptable when treated with the mushroom powder than with the imported commercial tenderizer. This led to the conclusion that it is quite feasible to develop a natural meat tenderizer using the Sarcodon aspratus fruitbody.

The experiments were carried out to investigate the aging effect between loin muscles from Hanwoo and Helstein. Two kinds of loin samples were prepared from the carcasses of grade B2 from Hanwoo and D from Holstein. The carcasses were chilled for 24 hours after slaughter. The carcasses was obtained by chilling the loin fort 1 day after wrapping it. On the other hand. was obtained divided by 500g and stored at 2$^{\circ}C$ for 11 days after air packing. In the case of fresh beef pH and lactic acid of grade B2 were lower than that of grade D. Hardness and chewiness of grade B2 were lower than that of grade D, but myofibrillar fragmentation index(MFI) of glade B2 were higher than that of grade D. Total concentrations of free amino acid of grade B2 were higher than those of D. The contents of monounsaturated fatty acid of grade B2 was lower than grade D, and monosaturated fatty acid/saturated fatty acid(MUFA/SFA) of grade B2 were higher than grade D. The contents of nonprotein nitrogen of the aged beef was higher than the fresh beef, and beef of grade B2 was higher than that of grade D. In case of aging beef. cooking loss of grade B2 was lower than grade D.

The effect of maturity and marbling score on meat quality properties in fattening Hanwoo loin was investigated. No differences attributable to maturity and marbling score were noted in pH, $L^*$ value (lightness), $a^*$ value (redness), $b^*$ value (yellowness), cooking loss. Myofibrils extractability, hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness. In the case of water holding capacity, a maturity score of 6 and 7, and marbling score of 8 and 9 were the highest among the groups (p<0.05). The shear force become higher when maturity score increased and marbling score decreased (p<0.05).

A toxicity method using bioluminescence producing bacteria, Escherichia coli DH5 RB1436, was developed and applied on solid environmental samples. In the assay, 1 g soil sample was mixed with 4 ml RB1436 strain. Sets amended with p-buffer were employed for control in soil test, showing approximately 108% of sets amended with combusted soils. Measurable differences were observed between relatively more polluted groups (HP) and less polluted groups (LP) of soil samples, showing average toxicity 43 and 26%, respectively, in direct soil toxicity test. $EC_{50}$'s for all soil groups appeared in the range of $1.8{\sim}4.6\;g$, but those of sediments from dam reservoir and refuses were below 0.22 g. This developed bioassay should prove useful as a screening test for toxicity in various types of environmental solid samples.

This experiment was conducted to study the effect of dried persimmon by-product on physico-chemical properties of chicken meat One hundred sixty broilers were fed diet for five weeks containing 0, 1, 3, and $5\%$ of dried persimmon by-product The pH was not significantly different between control and treatment groups. The shear force and cooking loss of the treatment groups were higher than the control group inn the water holing capacity (WHC) was higher in the control groups (P<0.05). The meat color of the treatments group showed redder than that of the control group owing to higher $a^*\;and\;b^*$ value. The flavor evaluated by sensory evaluation were improved by treatments group (P<0.05). In minerals, P content of the treatment groups were higher than that of the control group. The result of this experiment indicated that dried persimmon by-product tended to improve the flavor.

Guar gum, ${\kappa}$-carrageenan, alginic acid and chitosan were applied to pork as a model system, and evaluated as a substitute for inorganic polyphosphate, which is one of the essential additives in conventional meat processing. The tested materials did not alter the fat content or pH of the pork meat; however, they did affect water holding capacity and cooking loss significantly. The pork with added guar gum and ${\kappa}$-carrageenan exhibited lower cooking loss than the pork with added polyphosphate. Also, theses materials showed no negative coloring effect within the pork meat blends, which suggest the possibility for their application in final products. In addition, the pork processed with guar gum showed a similar emulsion stability to that with polyphosphate. Overall, guar gum and ${\kappa}$-carrageenan were confirmed as possible substitutes for inorganic polyphosphate.

본 연구는 식염첨가량을 달리하여 제조한 로인 햄의 품질특성을 평가하고, 제조 가능한 최저식염첨가수준을 결정하고자 실시하였다. 식염첨가량을 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0%로 달리하여 염지액을 다침주사로 주입한 로인 햄의 이화학적 및 조직학적 및 관능적 성상을 평가하였고, 고염처리구와 비교하였다. 제조한 로인 햄의 pH, 그리고 수분, 지방, 단백질 함량은 각각 5,8${\sim}$5.9, 66${\sim}$70%, 1${\sim}$l.3%, 21${\sim}$26%였다. 수분함량은 식염 무첨가구가 첨가구에 비하여 유의적으로 낮게 나타났고, 반면에 단백질함량은 식염 무첨가구가 첨가구에 비하여 유의적인 차이를 보이며 높게 나타났다. 색도는 명도에서만 고염 처리구 중 1.5%가 저염 처리구 0.5%이하와 차이를 보였다. 보수력은 식염첨가량에 따른 유의적 차이를 보이지 않았고, 반면에 가열감량은 식염 무첨가구가 0.5%이상의 식염 첨가구에 비해 유의적인 차이를 보이며 높게 나타났다. 조직학적 특성을 평가하기 위해 실시한 allo-kramer 전단력 측정 결과, 식염 무첨가처리구는 0.5${\sim}$1% 식염첨가구에 비하여 높게 나타났으나, 1.5${\sim}$2% 첨가처리구와는 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않았다. 관능검사 곁과에서 식염 무첨가구는 평가항목 전반에 걸쳐서 좋지 않은 것으로 평가되었으며, 특히 다즙성, 색도, 염도 및 총체적인 항목에서 매우 낮게 평가되어 제품으로서 가치를 상실하였다. 반면에 0.5% 이상의 식염 첨가구는 식염첨가량에 관계없이 유사한 관능적 특성을 보였으며, 2.0%의 고염 처리구는 오히려 염도에서 다른 평가항목보다 낮게 평가되었고, 1.0% 식염 첨가구는 오히려 조직감과 염도에서 매우 좋게 평가되었다. 이러한 결과는 제조 가능한 식염첨가최저수준은 0.5%이상임을 보여주었다. 따라서 로인 햄의 제조에 필요로 되는 식염의 첨가량은 0.5${\sim}$1.5% 범위로 평가된다. 차후의 연구로는 저염 로인 햄의 경우 품질의 저하를 보완할 수 있는 기능성 첨가물이나 가공기법이 필요할 것으로 보인다.
