The effects of gamma irradiation to improve the hygienic quality and microbiological shelf stability of whole baked egg were investigated by comparison with autoclaving process. The contamination levels of coliform, total aerobic bacteria and fungal group in a fresh egg were 10$^{5}$ CFU/g, 10$^{2}$ CFU/g and 10$^{1}$ CFU/g, respectively. After baking process, total aerobic bacteria and fungi were not exceeded to 10$^{1}$ CFU/g. Also, coliform was not detected under the aseptic process. However, cell counts of the baked egg after packaging reached to 10$^{4}$ CFU/g of total aerobic bacteria, 10$^{1}$ CFU/g of coliform, and 10$^{2}$ CFU/g of fungi. Therefore, it was assumed that microbial contamination of baked and packaged egg was mainly originated from an environmental uptake during packaging process. Microbiological shelf stability of the non sterilized control was about a week. Whereas, the baked eggs irradiated at more than 5 kGy were stable over 12 weeks at ambient condition as like those being autoclaved. Analytical texture profIle was stable within 10 kGy, but it became hardened in the sample treated with autoclaving. About 67$\%$ of panelists identified a sensory difference between non-irradiated and 10 kGy-irradiated sample. The baked egg irradiated at 10 kGy and autoclaved had lower acceptability than the control or samples irradiated lower than 5 kGy. Therefore, it was considered that optimal irradiation dose for radiation sterilization of baked and packaged egg was 5 kGy. At that point, it was recommended that appropriate microbiological shelf-life was 12 weeks at ambient condition.

감(Diospyros kaki)은 한국과 일본이 주산지이며 국내 단감의 재배 품종은 만생종인 ‘부 유’가 주종을 이루고 있으며 독특한 맛, vitamin C 등 영양적 가치와 함께 식품으로서 안전성이 우수한 과실로 평가되면서 소비량이 매년 꾸준히 증가하고 있다. 단감은 국내에서 생산되는 과실로서는 드물게 PE필름에 포장된 상태에서 유통되고 있다. 이렇게 포장된 과실은 저온상태에서 유통되어야 MA의 효과를 충분히 발휘할 수 있으며 유통기한도 연장될 수 있을 것으로 생각되나 현재 국내에서 저온 유통되는 단감은 찾아보기 어렵다. 이에 현행 상온유통에서 PE필름 밀봉 방식과 무포장 상태의 과실의 품질변화를 살펴봄으로써 그 문제점을 파악하고 반응표면분석을 통하여 최적 저장조건을 찾아내고자 하였으며 유통조건을 고려하여 0.05mm LDPE 필름밀봉방식의 품질변화를 보았으며, 문제점을 파악하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 LDPE 필름포장이 단감의 품질변화에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여 단감은 2$0^{\circ}C$에서 0.05mm LDPE필름으로 포장하여, 당도, 수소이온농도, 경도를 측정하고 또한 $O_2$(1, 3, 5%) $CO_2$(5, 10, 15%)의 9구분으로 환경기체조성을 조절하여 중심합성계획법에 의해 반응표면분석을 하고 종합적으로 검토하였다.

This study was carried out to determine the shelf-life of cricket powder and investigate the changes in its quality during storage. To determine the shelf-life, cricket powder was stored at temperatures of 25, 35, and $40^{\circ}C$ for 6 months. The changes in quality parameters of the cricket powder, such as moisture content, color, acid value, volatile base nitrogen (VBN), fatty acid, growth of microorganisms, and sensory appeal were investigated. The moisture content of the cricket powder increased during storage but did not show any significant difference at 6 months of storage. L value was increased at $25^{\circ}C$ storage but decreased at 35 and $40^{\circ}C$. However, there were no significant different in a and b values. The acid value decreased more rapidly at higher temperatures, while the VBN content was not changed. The major composition of fatty acids of cricket powder were palmitic acid, oleic acid, and linoleic acid. Their content was not changed at various the storage temperatures. No aerobic and coliform bacteria grew in the powder during the whole storage period. Cricket powder stored at $25^{\circ}C$ and $35^{\circ}C$ showed similar scores in sensory evaluation, but it storaged at $40^{\circ}C$ showed the significant difference (p<0.05). Moisture content, acid value, oleic acid, and flavor were selected as the criteria for shelf-life establishment of cricket powder. Based on these parameters, especially the moisture content, the shelf life of cricket powder was likely to be 18 months when stored at $25^{\circ}C$.

$Jeot-gal$ is a traditional Korean fermented seafood with a salt concentration of 15~20%. However, today's consumers prefer low-salted foods as they have become aware that high levels of salt cause hypertension and diabetes. In this study, the quality characteristics and shelf-life of low-salted squid $Jeot-gal$ were investigated at different fermentation temperatures and salt concentrations. The shelf-lives of 3%-salted squid $Jeot-gal$ fermented at -1, 4, and $10^{\circ}C$ were 45, 31, and 23 days, respectively, whereas those of 5%-salted squid $Jeot-gal$ were 52, 36, and 25 days. The DPPH radical scavenging activity of the ethanol extract of squid $Jeot-gal$ was stronger than that of the water extract. However, the other antioxidative activities, such as hydrogen peroxide and hydrogen peroxide radical scavenging activities, as well as enzyme inhibitory activities were very low at 20 mg/mL of water and ethanol extracts. Based on the results of the sensory evaluation, the quality of low-salted fermented squid $Jeot-gal$ was almost similar to that of commercial squid $Jeot-gal$ with a high salt concentration.

The purpose of this study was to investigate convenience foods at convenience stores, by examining consumption patterns, as well as the degree of checking food-nutrition labeling. In this study, 208 workers in Busan in their 20s or 30s were surveyed using 1:1 interview questionnaires. The weekly usage frequencies of cup-ramyeon, gimbap, ramyeon, and sandwiches were 41.0%, 39.4%, 32.7%, and 19.0% respectively. The usage frequency of convenience foods was 12.0% for 'over 5 times/week', 23.0% for '3~4 times/week', 31.7% for '1~2 times/week', 29.8% for '1~2 times/month', and 3.4% for zero usage. Workers in their 20s showed a significantly (P<0.05) higher rate in the '3~4 times/week' as well as '1~2 times/week' intervals than workers in their 30s. Single people showed a significantly (P<0.01) higher rate than married people. Workers in their 20s showed a significantly higher score for the '3~4 times/week' as well as '1~2 times/week' intervals (P<0.05). The mean score of checking food labeling was 4.02/5.00 for the manufacturer's date, or expiration date, 3.23/5.00 for weight or volume, 2.99/5.00 for cooking method, and 2.85/5.00 for storage method. Females showed significantly (P<0.01) higher rates for checking the manufacturer's date or expiration date, as well as source of the raw material. Single workers showed significantly (P<0.01) higher rates for checking the manufacture's or expiration date as well as storage method. The mean score for checking nutrition labeling was 3.06/5.00 for calories, 2.84/5.00 for trans fat, 2.80/5.00 for sodium, and 2.76/5.00 for cholesterol. Females showed a significantly (P<0.01) higher rate for six of 10 items. Workers in their 20s showed a significantly (P<0.05) higher rate for four of 10 items. Expert officials showed significantly higher rate for six of 10 items (P<0.05) and two of 10 items (P<0.01), respectively.

This study was carried out to compare microbiological and hygienic quality characteristics of the products reached expiration date among meat products distributing in markets. A total of 20 meat products(6 hams, 3 bacons and 11 sausages) were examined for analyses of pH, Aw, TBARS, VBN, total aerobic microbial counts, and meat colors. The pH values of samples were between 5.33 and 6.59. The water activity (Aw) of samples ranged 0.90-0.93. TBARS and VBN values of samples were 0.11-0.59 and 2.37~14.75, respectively. The contaminated levels of total aerobic bacteria were less than 2.80 CFU/g. In meat color, L*, a*, and b* values of samples were in the range of 56-72, 5.2-34 and 0.7-16, respectively. It is suggested that the quality difference of meat products is attributed to the different additives and manufacturing processes. Therefore, we suggest that the results of this study are not only applied for evaluation of the microbiological and hygienic safety but also served as fundamental information for re-establishing the shelf-life of meat products.

복숭아는 다른 과일에 비해 조직이 연약하고 저장성이 매우 낮은 여름철 과일이므로 선별, 포장 및 유통과정에 세심한 주의가 필요하다. 따라서 출하.유통시 선도를 유지시켜 유통기한을 연장시킨다면 경제적 효과가 클 것이다. 국내에서 일반화되어 있는 PE필름 밀봉 저장방식은 과실의 호흡에 의해 산소농도의 감소와 이산화탄소의 증가로 호흡이 억제되고, 이에 따라 노화가 지연됨으로 과실의 저장수명을 증가시키는 방식이며, PE필름내 기체조성에 영향을 미치는 요소는 필름의 두께와 저장온도이고 저장온도가 필름의 두께, 즉 MA효과보다 과실연화에 더 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이는 필름의 두께가 얇을수록 봉지 내 산소농도가 높아져 호흡대사를 촉진하기 때문인 것으로 이해된다. 과육의 연화가 시작되면서 이취를 유발하는 아세트알데히드와 에탄올의 축적이 증가한다고 보고되고 있고 이는 저장고 내 고농도의 이산화탄소 처리 시에 나타난다. 따라서 본 실험에서는 상온 2$0^{\circ}C$에서 복숭아를 0.05mm LDPE필름으로 포장하여 경도, 당도, pH를 측정하였으며 $O_2$(1, 3, 5%), $CO_2$(5, 10, 15%)를 9구분으로 환경기체를 조성하고 중심합성계획법에 의해 반응 표면분석(RSM)을 하였고 갈변도검사 결과와 함께 종합적으로 복숭아저장에 필요한 최적조건을 규명하고자 하였다.

UN 식량농업기구(FAO)는 기후변화의 최대 원인 중 하나로 '축산업'을 지목하고 있다. 그 요소 중의 하나가 바로 먹다 남아 버려지는 우유다. 우유 한 통을 사면 먹다 남길 때가 잦다. 유통기한까지 지나면 마시기에는 찜찜하다. 많이 따라놓고 먹지 않거나 오랫동안 먹지 않아 남은 우유는 보통 빨리 상해서 하수구로 버려지는 게 다반사다. 하수구를 통해 강이나 바다로 유입되는 우유를 정화하려면 버려지는 우유 양의 약 1만 5천 배의 물이 필요하다. 즉, 우유 1 리터(${\ell}$)를 통째로 버리면 15톤(t)의 물이 있어야 정화된다. 환경 문제가 만만치 않다는 얘기다.
