This experiment was carried out to establish effective egg storage technology by studying the physico-chemical properties of albumen and yolk during the cold storage. The results obtained were summarized as follows：1. Egg Yolk was gelated and whipping quality and whipping stability of albumen was decreased by the freezing storage. 2. NaCl was the best anti-freezer to prevent the gelation of egg yolk among various anti-freezer (NaCl, glucose, sucrose, amides). 3. Viscosity of egg yolk and albumen was increased and color was changed but changes of colorin albumen was slight during the storage at $-5^{\circ}C$ and $-20^{\circ}C$. 4. To store the 5% NaC1 added egg yolk -at $-5^{\circ}C$ was the best way to prevent the gelation of egg yolk and save the energy. 5. Emulsion capacity of egg yolk was decreased by the cold storage with the addition of NaCl.

10% salted egg yolk containing 12-21% e99 white (RI 42-45) was stored at $-15^{\circ}C\;and\;-25^{\circ}C$. Changes of appearent viscosity and emulsification capacity were measured monthly(1-6 months). Viscosity, oil particle size and emulsion stability of mayonnaise which was prepared with these yolks for each storage time were also tested . In salted e99 yolk, viscosity was increased gradually with increasing the storage time, and further increased in the yolk of less egg white (higher RI), stored at $-25^{\circ}C\;than\;-15^{\circ}C$. Emulsification capacity was decreased gradually with increasing the storage time. In mayonnaise, which was Prepared with these frozen egg folks, oil Particle size became smaller gradually with increasing the storage time of egg folk, and further became smaller in the egg yolks containing low levels of egg white , stored at $-25^{\circ}C\;than\;-15^{\circ}C$. The viscosity of mayonnaise was decreased by about 2 months storage of e99 yolk, and restored thereafter, emulsion stability was decreased by 3-4 months storage of egg yolk and restored slightly thereafter.

Changes in pH, viable microbial count, chemical freshness, texture, and sensory qualities of Sing Sing Hoe (SSH, fresh-sliced raw fish) were measured over 15 days at $4^{\circ}C$, $-20^{\circ}C$, and $-80^{\circ}C$. The initial pH of SSH was 6.25 at all three storage temperatures, and pH increased slightly after 12 days to pH 6.48 and pH 6.55 at $-20^{\circ}C$ and $-80^{\circ}C$, respectively. The range in viable cell count was 104-106 CFU/g, regardless of storage temperature. The initial content of volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) was 5.8 mg/100 g and became 8.2 mg/100 g or less, and 7.9 mg/100 g or less after 15 days at $-20^{\circ}C$ and $-80^{\circ}C$, respectively. However, pH and VBN values increased significantly after 3 days of storage at $4^{\circ}C$. At this temperature, the K-value was 22.3% after 6 days and 40% or more after 15 days. At $-20^{\circ}C$, the K-value was 9.6% or less after 6 days and 21% or less after 15 days of storage. At $-80^{\circ}C$, the K-value was 8.5% or less after 9 days and 20% or less after 15 days of storage. Compared with the K-value of live fish muscle (10%), freshness similar to that of live fish was maintained for 6 days under both $-20^{\circ}C$ and $-80^{\circ}C$ storage conditions. There was no significant change in texture during storage of SSH at $-20^{\circ}C$ or $-80^{\circ}C$, but SSH stored at $4^{\circ}C$ showed a decrease in texture quality during storage. Sensory scores were high for material stored for up to 3 days at $4^{\circ}C$ and 6 days at $-20^{\circ}C$ or $-80^{\circ}C$. The overall freshness of SSH was maintained for up to 6 days, in comparison with fresh-sliced raw fish, under both frozen storage conditions.

Quality changes in semi-dried red pepper (SRP) treated with ozone water were observed upon storage (at $-18^{\circ}C$) after freezing at $-10^{\circ}C$, $-20^{\circ}C$, and $-40^{\circ}C$. Drip loss after treatment was greater than in control peppers, but no significant difference was evident between treatments (p<0.05). We observed that differences between samples decreased as storage time increased. Texture after treatment did not change significantly over a 3-month period. The redness (a-value) after treatment was greater than in the control, but no sample showed significant color alteration after the 3-month period. The capsaicinoid content decreasedas storage time increased, and was also affected by the freezing temperature. However, carotenoid content was not influenced by freezing or storage temperature. Ascorbic acid and free sugar contents showed decreases of 47% and 6.5%, respectively, after semi-drying. The results of sensory evaluation indicated no significant difference between samples in terms of color appearance.

A method to store concentrated milk in the liquid state at $-15^{\circ}C$ was developed, and quality changes during storage of milk were evaluated. Combined cryoprotectants (CCP) suitable for storing concentrated milk in the liquid state at $-15^{\circ}C$ were consisted of 17.74% sucrose, 8.87% glucose, 8.87% fructose, 2% glycerol, 0.25% sodium hexametaphosphate, 0.25% NaCl and 0.02% ascorbic acid. The amount of CCP to be added to concentrated milk to depress freezing point to $-15^{\circ}C$ was 38% by weight. Gelation due to protein denaturation was the most serious quality change during storage, which adversely affected appearance and utilization of the stored product. Gelation was observed after 3 weeks storage in the control, but it was not in milk with CCP throughout 18 weeks storage. Amount of protein precipitated increased in the control during storage, whereas there was no protein precipitated in milk with CCP. Surface color and peroxide value of the control and treatment did not change significantly during storage, and there were no marked differences between the control and treatment. These results indicated that quality of concentrated milk could be preserved, without gelation, by storing milk with CCP in the -liquid state at the frozen storage temperature. Besides, energy required for freezing preservation of milk could be significantly reduced by elimination of phase changes for freezing and thawing, and the stored product could be continuously processed for the final products without long waiting time for thawing.

This study was performed to determine the rapid thawing method for reducing the thawing time of frozen pork loins and to examine the effects of supercooling on the microbiological, physicochemical, and sensory qualities of fresh and frozen-thawed pork during storage at -1.5, 4, and $15^{\circ}C$. Forced-air thawing at $4^{\circ}C$ was the most time-consuming process, whereas radio frequency thawing time was the shortest by dielectric heating. The supercooling storage temperature was chosen to be $-1.5^{\circ}C$ because microstructural damages were not observed in the pork sample after cooling at $-1.5^{\circ}C$ for 24 h. Fresh or frozen-thawed pork loins stored at $-1.5^{\circ}C$ had lower drip loss and total volatile base nitrogen, thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance, and Hunter b* levels than loins stored at 4 and $15^{\circ}C$. In addition, the least degree of increase in preexisting microorganisms counts of the fresh or frozen-thawed pork loin samples was obtained during supercooled storage at $-1.5^{\circ}C$. Sensory quality results of fresh and frozen-thawed pork loin samples stored at $-1.5^{\circ}C$ showed higher scores than the samples stored at 4 and $15^{\circ}C$. These data indicate that supercooling at $-1.5^{\circ}C$ in the meat processing industry would be effective for maintaining the quality of pork meats without ice crystal nucleation and formation.

Effects of blanching and salting for the pretreatment during frozen storage condition were investigated and optimized the salting condition on the activities of peroxidase and lipoxygenase, the stability of vitamin C and color, moisture content and hardness in immatured soybean. Before frozen storage, pretreatment processing is necessary to extend the shelf-life of vegetables. Salting condition of 2% for 180min treatment led to maximum inactivation of both lipoxygenase and peroxidase while blanching can more inactivate for lipoxygenase. Salting at 2% for 180min resulted in the highest amount of vitamin C remaining in the immatured soybeans after 6 months storage. The color of the immatured soybeans were severely changed after 6 months storage, while the color of salted soybeans at 3% and 180min treatment was similar to fresh products. Moisture content and hardness were reduced with addition of salt.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of cryoprotectants (sugar, sorbitol, polyphosphate) on the physico-chemical characteristics of chicken breast surimi manufactured by pH adjustment (pH 11.0) during freezing storage. The final surimi was divided into experimental units to which the following treatments were randomly assigned: C (Alaska pollack surimi: two washings, 4% sugar +5% sorbitol ${\pounds}'$ 0.3% polyphosphate additive): T1 (chicken breast surimi: pH 11.0 adjusted, 0.3% polyphosphate additive): T2 (chicken breast surimi pH 11.0 adjusted, 5% sorbitol +0.3% polyphosphate additive); T3 (chicken breast surimi: pH 11.0 adjusted, 4% sugar +5% sorbitol +0.3% polyphosphate additive). The crude protein content of the control was higher than all treated samples, however the moisture, crude fat and crude ash of T3 were higher than the control (p<0.05). The pH, WHC and collagen content of the control were higher than all of the treated samples, and these values decreased with storage time for all treatments and the control (p<0.05). The cholesterol content of the control was lower than all treated samples, but the myofibrillar protein contents of all treated samples were higher than the control (p<0.05). The cooking loss of T2 was lower than the control and the other two treatments (p<0.05). The $L^*,\;a^*\;and\;b^*$ values of all treated samples were higher than those of the control during freezing storage (p<0.05). The W value of T3 at 1.5 and 3 months of freezing storage was higher than the control and T1 (p<0.05). The myoglobin and met-Mb contents of the control were similar to all treated samples, and the met-Mb content of the control and all treated samples increased with storage time (p<0.05). Immediately after freezing, the hardness of the control was higher than all treated samples, however it was lower after 1.5 and 3 months of frozen storage (p<0.05). The cohesiveness and gumminess of the control were higher than all treated samples immediately after freezing, however the values for T3 were higher than those of the control and the other two treatments during frozen storage for 1.5 and 3 months (p<0.05).

Physicochemical properties of five commercial rice products were investigated in order to select the appropriate rice varieties for the preparation of frozen fried rice. Among the evaluated rice varieties, Onnuri (16.06%) had the highest amylose content, while Beakjinju (11.83%) had the lowest. The water absorption index ranged from 1.45 to 1.65 g/g. Regarding the Hunter's color values, the L and a values of all rice varieties decreased while the b value increased with freezing-storage following the cooking process. The initial pasting temperature showed no significant differences among the five rice varieties. The highest viscosity (peak, trough, and final) and setback were found in the Sindongjin, while the lowest breakdown was found in the Baekjinju variety. Hardness, chewiness, and cohesiveness of all five cooked rice varieties decreased while their adhesiveness increased after freezing-storage. Under electron microscopy scanning, pores were observed inside the tissue of frozen cooked rices manufactured from Baekjinju and Hopum varieties, while substantially smooth tissue structure was observed in Sindognjin, Onnuri, and Ilmi rice varieties.
