최근 유기농산물에 대한 관심과 요구가 급증하면서 소비자들은 고품질 유기농산물을 선호하고 있어 국내 대부분 유기농가들은 무처리 일반종자를 이용하고 있는 실정이다. 앞으로 국제 기준에 부합하는 채소류 유기재배를 위해서는 유기종자의 이용이 필수적이므로 유기종자 채종체계 확립이 필요한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 당근 종자(재래종 heimloom)를 사용하여 유기종자의 채종체계를 확립하고자 하였다. 일반적으로 당근종자 생산은 적어도 2년을 요구한다. Seed to seed 방법과 Root to seed 방법이 이용되고 있는데 본 연구에서는 Root to seed 방법을 사용하였다. Root to seed 방법은 6월에 당근종자를 파종하여 가을에 뿌리를 수확하여 지상부를 5cm 정도 남기고 정지하여 일시 저온저장 하였다가 이듬해 뿌리를 이식하여 새순에서 추대시켜 종자를 수확하는 방법으로 종자 생산성이 높아 종자회사에서 많이 사용하고 있다. 본 연구에서도 Root to seed 방법으로 채종 시험하였다. 2008년도에 파종 및 수확한 뿌리를 저온저장고에 일시 저장 후 1차 이식은 2008년 11월 하순에 노지포장에서 실시하고 이때 월동 중 동해를 막기 위하여 보온덮개로 멀칭 처리하였다. 이듬해 3월 중순에 주간거리 75${\times}$40cm 간격으로 솎음하여 처리당 10주씩 배치하였다. 이식후 뿌리에서 새순 1대를 유도하였고 추대 및 개화 6주후부터 종자가 갈색으로 변하기 시작할 때 채종을 시작하였다. 수확부위는 1차 측지 중 1번째 화지를 대상으로 하였고 화경절단은 화총으로부터 20cm 정도 남겨서 잘랐고 실내에서 1개월 이상 충분히 후숙시킨 후 종자를 정선하여 종자생산성을 조사하였다. 결실율과 발아율 조사는 채종된 종자를 이용하여 종자 충실도와 발아력을 조사하였다. 각 품종별 추대율은 15번 품종과 16번, 24번 품종이 5% 미만으로 매우 부진하였고 그밖에 추대된 묘의 생육 및 발육상은 매우 양호하여 개화에는 커다란 문제가 없었다. 종자 결실율은 23번 품종을 제외한 모든 품종에서 높았고 각 품종별 화총구조를 고려해 볼 때 주간 화총, 1차측지, 2차측지 순으로 결실율이 떨어졌다. 각 품종의 천립중은 1, 11, 12, 14, 20번 품종이 2.02g 이상으로 대립종으로 판단되며 각 품종별 화총의 크기는 비슷하여 대립종은 각 화총당 종자수가 적은 것으로 나타났다. 대분분의 대립종은 만생종으로 생육기간이 소립종 보다 10-20일상 길며 종자 성숙기간도 장기간 소요되며 특히 장마기간을 넘겨야 할 경우에는 비가림 시설 채종재배가 필수적인 것으로 나타났다. 발아율은 10, 11, 14, 18, 19, 26번 품종이 80% 이상으로 가장 높았고 다른 품종에서는 다소 떨어져 품종별 차이가 많았다. 종자 생산성은 장근종과 단근종간에 약간의 차이가 있지만 주간 화총을 포함하여 1차 측지 4-5개에서 채종하는 것이 가장 효율적인 것으로 사료된다. 또한 당근의 개화 기간을 보면 1화륜은 8~10일, 1개체는 40~50일, 채종포장에서는 1화륜에서 측지 6개구까지 채종은 60~70일 소요되어 미숙종자와 과숙종자가 혼재되어 적정 수확시기를 결정하기가 매우 어려운 점이 발생하였다. 본 연구 결과에서 생육특성, 수량성, 품질특성, 종자 생산성, 발아율을 고려해 볼 때 1, 7, 8, 9, 10, 14, 19, 26번 품종이 유기농 재배 및 유기채종에 적합한 것으로 사료되었다.

To investigate the sanitary-quality level of commercial kimchi in South Korea, the pH, acidity, and microbial-flora changes in the kimchi were determined. Samples of kimchi produced by three different manufacturers (a small grocery store, a small/medium-sized enterprise, and a large food company) were collected. Freshly made kimchi was purchased and fermented at $10^{\circ}C$ for 10 days. The pH of the commercial kimchi on the purchased day was approximately pH 5.8, and that on the $10^{th}$ day of fermentation was ${\simeq}pH$ 4.1. The kimchi purchased from a large company showed a more rapid decline in pH level during fermentation. The saltiness of the kimchi purchased from a medium-sized company was slightly higher than those of the other commercial kimchi samples. The saccharinity index of the kimchi produced by a small grocery store was higher than those of the other samples, and its value deviation was also higher than those of the other commercial kimchi samples. A higher total viable-cell count and a higher lactic-acid bacteria (LAB) count were detected in the kimchi from the large food company at the beginning of fermentation compared to the samples of the two other kimchi manufacturers. The highest cell numbers of gram-positive bacteria (except LAB) and coliform bacteria were detected from the small-grocery-store kimchi, but the coliform bacteria count gradually decreased during fermentation although such bacteria were still detected until the $10^{th}$ day of fermentation. In contrast, coliform bacteria were not detected in the samples from the medium-sized and large food companies. Yeast, which is detected in over-ripened kimchi, was detected in the unfermented kimchi from the small grocery store, which had a below-0.36% acidity level. The gram-positive bacteria (except LAB) that were detected in all the tested commercial kimchi samples were determined to be Bacillus spp., and the gram-negative bacteria were determined to be Escherichia coli, Enterobacter spp., Sphingomonase spp., and Strenophomonas spp. The proportions of all the aforementioned bacteria in the kimchi samples, however, were different depending on the samples that were taken. These results indicate that a more sanitary kimchi production process and a more systematic kimchi production manual should be developed to industrialize and globalize kimchi.

This experiment was carried out to study on methods of processing the fruit base which is to be used for preparing the fruit yoghurts. Common fruits were compared and peach was chosen among them for this purpose by determing the rate of decrease in hardness during the process of cooking. The maturity, temperature of cooking and methods of peeling were tested to maintain the desirable hardness during the process, and the effects of metallic ion addition on the hardness of the flesh were also studied. The results obtained were as follows. 1. The peaches were keeping the most stable texture during cooking, among common fruits, however the hardness of apples were decreased markedly. Rate of decreases in the flesh hardness were high during the initial stages of cooking then slowered in all fruits tested. 2. Flesh hardness of the peaches were largely affected by the temperature of cooking. And the texture of freeze-stored fruits was severly damaged during thawing, so that could be used only for the limited purposes such as for stirred-type yoghurt. 3. Divalent matallic ions, especially calcium ion, were effective for supporting the flesh hardness of peaches during cooking. 4. The optimal concentration of calcium chloride addition was 0.3%, and this resulted in its final concentration in the product under the legal dosage without any subsquent changes in colour and flavor. 5. The effects of calcium chloride addition were greater in the froms of dices than in those of slices, and in overmature fleshs than in immature ones. 6. Treatment of calcium chloride by soaking the slices or dices of lye-peeled peaches in 0.3% solution was found to be adaptable for the practical process.

For intraoperative radiation therapy using electron beams, a cone system to deliver a large dose to the tumor during surgical operation and to save the surrounding normal tissue should be developed and dosimetry for the cone system is necessary to find proper X-ray collimator setting as well as to get useful data for clinical use. We developed a docking type of a cone system consisting of two parts made of aluminum: holder and cone. The cones which range from 4cm to 9cm with 1cm step at 100cm SSD of photon beam are 28cm long circular tubular cylinders. The system has two 26cm long holders: one for the cones larger than or equal to 7cm diamter and another for the smaller ones than 7cm. On the side of the holder is an aperture for insertion of a lamp and mirror to observe treatment field. Depth dose curve. dose profile and output factor at dept of dose maximum. and dose distribution in water for each cone size were measured with a p-type silicone detector controlled by a linear scanner for several extra opening of X-ray collimators. For a combination of electron energy and cone size, the opening of the X-ray collimator was caused to the surface dose, depths of dose maximum and 80%, dose profile and output factor. The variation of the output factor was the most remarkable. The output factors of 9MeV electron, as an example, range from 0.637 to 1.549. The opening of X-ray collimators would cause the quantity of scattered electrons coming to the IORT cone system. which in turn would change the dose distribution as well as the output factor. Dosimetry for an IORT cone system is inevitable to minimize uncertainty in the clinical use.

In this study, we evaluated the changes of fruit quality indices during fruit development and ripening in Korean new pear cultivar 'Changjo', developed from a cross between 'Tama' and '81-1-27' ('Danbae' ${\times}$ 'Okusankichi') in 1995 and named in 2009, to determine appropriate harvest time and to enhance the market quality and broaden the cultivation area. The fruits of 'Changjo' pears harvested from 132 days after full bloom (DAFB) to 160 DAFB. Fruit growth and quality indices were monitored at 1 week interval by measuring fruit weight, length, diameter, firmness, and taste related quality indices. The calculated fruit fresh weight increased continuously with fruit development and reached to an average of 594g on Sep. 20 (160 DAFB). The ratio of length to diameter declines as fruit maturation progress, resulting in 0.898 for ripe fruit stage as a round oblate shape. Flesh firmness of 'Changjo' pears showed over 30N until 153 DAFB and then decreased abruptly with fruit ripening, reaching a final level of about 26.44N on 160 DAFB. Starch content of fruit sap was also decreased abruptly after 146 DAFB which decreased almost half of the fruits harvested at 139 DAFB. In parallel with the decrease of flesh firmness, ethanol insoluble solids (EIS) content decreased sharply with fruit ripens, only 50% of EIS was detected on the fruits harvested on 160 DAFB when compared to that of the fruits harvested on 139 DAFB (Aug. 30). The maximum value of soluble solids contents was observed in the fruits harvested on 153 DAFB, resulting in $14.2^{\circ}Brix$. The changes of skin color difference $a^*$ which means loss of green color occurred only after 139 DAFB, coincide with the decrease of SPAD value of the fruit skin. The sugars of the 80% ethanol soluble fraction consisted mainly of fructose, sorbitol, glucose and sucrose, also increased during maturation and ripening. Fructose and sucrose contents were larger than those of glucose and sorbitol in flesh tissues. These results were explained that stored starch is converted to soluble sugars during fruit maturation, mainly in fructose and sucrose increasing the sweetness of this cultivar. Total polyphenols were increased up to middle of fruit maturation (146 DAFB) and then decreased continuously until the end of fruit maturation. Consequently, our results suggested that the commercial harvest time of 'Changjo' pears should not be passed 153 DAFB and late harvest of this cultivar would not good for quality maintenance during shelf-life. As a result of the post-harvest low-temperature acclimation experiment during the short-term transportation period, fruits harvested at 146 DAFB tended to maintain higher firmness after 14 days of simulated marketing at $25^{\circ}C$ compared to fruits harvested at 153 DAFB regardless of temperature set. And, the slower the rate of decrease to the final transport temperature of $5^{\circ}C$, the higher the incidence of internal browning and ethylene production. Therefore, in order to suppress the physiological disorder and to maintain the fruit quality when exporting to Southeast Asia in the 'Chanjo' pears, it is desirable to lower the temperature of the fruits within a short time after harvest and to set the harvest time before 146 days after full bloom.

This study aims to determine the optimal maturity of strawberry fruits as affected by the application of lysophosphatidylethanolamine (LPE) and its optimal concentration for postharvest stability and quality. Prior to application of treatments, fruits that were classified into levels of maturity (0%, 50%, 70% and 100%) were air-dried for 40 minutes and stored in the refrigerator at $4^{\circ}C$ for 12 days. Fruits at 70% maturity were dipped into 0, 10, 50 and $100mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ LPE solutions for 1 minute. A lower range of concentration (0, 2.5, 5, 10 and $25mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$) was applied to fruits at different maturity levels. Data on fresh weight, hardness at vertical and horizontal loading positions, color index and sugar content during storage were collected. Based on fruits with 70% maturity dipped in LPE concentrations, there were no significant differences found on fresh weight, color index and sugar content. However, the application of $10mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ LPE gave the highest hardness at vertical loading position while $100mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ had the lowest average. At lower range of LPE concentrations, fresh weight was not significantly affected by LPE application and maturity levels. Hardness of fruits was mainly based on the maturity of the fruits. Increased hardness was observed in the fruits with 70% maturity dipped into the $5mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ of LPE solution. The hardness and Hunter's $L^*$ and $b^*$ value of 100% matured fruits gave lowest values despite the application of $25mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ LPE 12 days after storage.
