Various types of unit packaging methods were applied for 'Fuji' apples during short-term cold storage and export simulation. Gas tightness of the package was controlled stepwise in the successive two-year experiments using different perforation treatments (none, punch hole, or pinhole) and sealing methods (tie v s. heat seal). Risk of tight packaging and effectiveness of macroperforation on weight loss and quality maintenance were analyzed as related to changes in gas concentration inside the packages. Immediately after harvest, each 5 apple units were packaged in $40{\mu}m$ polypropylene (PP) film bags, stored 4 weeks at $0^{\circ}C$, and then put on the shelf for one week at ambient temperature in the preliminary experiment, In the main experiment, export process was imposed after storage simulating 2 week refrigerated container shipment at $0^{\circ}C$ plus one week local marketing at ambient temperature. Non-perforated film packaging with relatively high gas tightness induced flesh browning caused by carbon dioxide accumulation regardless of the sealing methods. Among perforated film packaging, in contrast, atmospheric modification was partly established only in the pinhole treatment and flesh browning symptom was not observed in all the treatments. Even the punch hole perforated film packaging without gas tightness effectively reduced the weight loss, whereas had slight benefits for quality maintenance. Reduced perforation using pinhole treatment seemed to improve sensory texture, while effects on physicochemical quality were insignificant. Overall results suggest the need of more minute perforation treatments on the packaging film to ensure modified atmosphere effects on quality maintenance.

단체 급식의 증가와 더불어 편의식품을 선호하는 소비 경향에 맞추어 최소가공한 과일의 갈변저해를 위한 저해제를 탐색하였다. 실험에 사용한 과일은 배와 감으로 각각 박피하여 속심을 제거한 후 배는 8조각으로 절단하고 감은 1~2cm 두께로 slice 하였다. 저해제는 1% ascorbic acid, citric acid, NaCl, MgCl$_2$, CaCl$_2$, oxalic acid, EDTA, raffinose, salicylic acit, sporix를 사용하였다. 또한 열수 추출한 오약, 계피, 황기, 당기, 건칡, 진피, 천궁, 감초 등도 저해제로 사용하였다. 최소가공한 과일은 저해제에 3분간 침지한 후 물기를 제거하고 tray에 포장하여 실온에서 저장하면서 colorimeter를 이용하여 갈변도의 변화를 측정하였다. 갈변 정도를 나타내는 $\Delta$E 는 시간의 경과에 따라 점차 감소하는 경향을 보였으나 배의 경우 변화 정도가 크지 않았다. NaCl, MgCl$_2$, CaCl$_2$를 처리한 배의 갈변 정도가 가장 적었다. cysteine을 처리한 구에서는 황화합물 냄새가 났다. 또한 oxalic acid를 처리한 구에서는 연화가 빠르게 일어났으며 저장 시간이 경과함에 따라 수분이 용출되었다. 한약재는 자체 색으로 인해 배의 색변화를 증가시켰으며 이취가 발생했다. 또한 저장 시간이 경과함에 따라 건조가 빠르게 일어나 관능적으로도 좋지 않은 결과를 나타냈다. 감에서는 CaCl$_2$, MgCl$_2$를 처리한 구에서 색의 변화가 가장 적었으며 cysteine은 색변화는 적었으나 배의 경우과 같이 이취가 발생하였다. 한약제는 계피와 진피를 처리한 감에서 색의 변화를 저해하는 효과를 보였다.를 처리하였을 경우 당귀, 천문동을 처리한 구에서 효과를 보였다. oxalic acid는 갈변저해에는 효과적이었으나 시간이 경과함에 따라 수분의 용출이 증가하였으며 물성의 변화도 컸다. 또한 ZnCl$_2$를 처리한 구에서는 이취 발생과 수분 용출이 컸으며 색의 변화도 컸다.내었다. 고온 단시간 처리구의 경우 저온 장시간 처리구와는 달리 저장 1일 후부터 그 농도가 다소 상승되었다가 다시 감소는 경향을 보였다. 한편 열처리하여 냉각시킨 직후 및 저장1주 후 사과의 pH, 산도, 당도, 경도, 과육의 갈변도 등을 조사하였던 바 대조구 및 처리구간에 일부 항목에 있어서는 약간의 차이를 나타내었다. 대치할 수 있을 것이라고 사료된다. 수분함량은 기계적 검사보다 관능검사와 더욱 높은 상관관계를 나타냈다.내었다. 항균활성이 우수한 생약재를 농도별로 활성을 조사한 결과, 물 추출물과 10% Ethanol 추출물 모두 낮은 농도에서도 우수한 항균활성을 나타내었다.취와 함께 점질성 갈변물질이 생성되었다. 이와 같은 결과로 볼 때, BAAG의 처리는 BAAC의 경우보다 가격은 저렴하면서도 항균력은 우수한 천연 항균복합제재로써 농산물 식품원료에 적용하여 선도유지 기간을 연장할 수 있는 효과를 기대할 수 있었다. 과일 등의 포장제로서 이용할 가능성을 확인하였다.로 [-wh] 겹의문사는 복수 의미를 지닐 수 없 다. 그러면 단수 의미는 어떻게 생성되는가\ulcorner 본 논문에서는 표면적 형태에도 불구하고 [-wh]의미의 겹의문사는 병렬적 관계의 합성어가 아니라 내부구조를 지니지 않은 단순한 단어(minimal $X^{0}$ elements)로 가정한다. 즉, [+wh] 의미의 겹의문사는 동일한 구성요 소를 지닌 병렬적 합성어([$[W1]_{XO-}$ $[W1]_{XO}$ ]

Quality changes in winter Chinese cabbages were evaluated during low temperature storage. Flesh and salt-treated Chinese cabbages were put into (a) polyethylene (PE) film sacks (size: $40cm{\times}60cm$, thickness: 0.03 mm, with four perforations each 8 mm in diameter), (b) plastic containers or (c) polypropylene (PP) nets and stored at $0^{\circ}C$. Also, Cabbages were also wrapped in newspapers and stored underground where the average temperature was $2.7^{\circ}C$. The weight loss rates of Chinese cabbages stored in PP nets and plastic containers were greater than those of cabbages stored with PE or wrapped in newspaper. Chinese cabbages wrapped in newspaper and stored underground needed much greater trimming compared to cabbages stored in other ways. The firmness and the soluble solid contents of Chinese cabbages were not affected by the various storage treatments. A better appearance was retained when Chinese cabbages were stored in PE film sacks. Chinese cabbages in PE film sacks stored at $0^{\circ}C$ showed delayed weight loss, less trimming loss, and less change in appearance. The quality changes in salted Chinese cabbages (desalting losses, pH changes, osmolarities, and crude fiber content) were not significantly different after the various treatments. No storage treatment was effective in maintaining a high quality of salted winter Chinese cabbage.

Kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis, Hayward) was stored at $25^{\circ}C$ for 0~30 days and investigated to find out the optimum storage time to obtain the best physical and functional properties for consumers' preference. Kiwifruits was stored at different time period (0, 5, 10, 15, 20, and 30 days) for investigating their physiochemical quality, nutritional components, and functional characteristics. Kiwifruits stored for 20~30 days showed the best physiochemical quality such as higher total acidity and proper firmness. They were also more enriched with dietary fibers, free sugar, and organic acid, although no significant changes were observed in crude protein, crude fat, and moisture content. For functional properties, kiwifruits stored for 20 days showed significantly higher contents of total phenolics, flavonoids, and actinidin. In addition, it showed stronger antioxidant activity, whitening effect, and proteolytic activity when compared with other samples. SDS-PAGE analysis showed the presence of actinidin enzyme in kiwifruits. These results indicated that the kiwifruits stored for 15~20 days possessed excellent quality and high concentrations of nutritional and functional compounds, which could be best for both fresh consumption and product processing.

A effect of extraction methods, including stirrer extraction method (SE), ultrasonification extraction method (USE), reflux extraction method (RE), autoclave extraction (AE) and low temperature high pressure extraction (LE) method on the antioxidative and antimicrobial activities of ethanol extracts of Oenothera biennis was investigated. The extraction yield (46.33%), total polyphenol (463.05 mg GAE/g) and flavonoid (71.71 mg RHE/g) content of Oenothera biennis extract obtained by RE were higher than those from other extraction methods. The antimicrobial activity of Oenothera biennis extract was only observed against Bacillus cereus among other tested organisms (Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Salmonella Typhimurium). Oenothera biennis obtained by RE showed the best DPPH radical scavenging ability (74.40%), ABTS radical scavenging ability (65.29%), reducing power (1.370 ($OD_{700}$)) and ferrous ion chelating ability (90.14%) compared with other tested extraction methods tested. The RE method was the most efficient method for extracting crude antioxidant and antimicrobial substances from Oenothera biennis. These results suggested that Oenothera biennis obtained by RE could be used as a bioactive and functional material in the food industry.

Bacillus subtilis subsp. subtilis constitutes 90% of the total viable bacteria present on Capsosiphon fulvescens. We found that hydrogen peroxide (50 ppm) and NaOCl (50 ppm) were more effective than electrolyzed water (EW, 50ppm) against B. subtilis subsp. subtilis that was isolated from this seaweed. Relative to a control, 50 ppm hydrogen peroxide reduced the total viable population by $1.8{\pm}0.4$ log CFU/g, whereas 50 ppm EW increased the total viable population by $1.7{\pm}0.5$ log CFU/g. CFUs were evaluated following 30 days of storage at $4^{\circ}C$ using air- and vacuum-packaging. Samples treated with 50 ppm hydrogen peroxide and NaOCl showed a $1.6{\pm}0.1$-fold decrease in initial hardness ($7.9{\times}10^6dyne/cm^2$), while the samples treated with 50 ppm EW had a $2.1{\pm}0.1$-fold decrease in initial hardness ($7.9{\times}10^6dyne/cm^2$). Again, measurements were performed after storage at $4^{\circ}C$ for 20 days. This study indicates that B. subtilis subsp. subtilis is the most common contaminant in aerobically or anaerobically packaged seaweed and should therefore be the main target for quality control during long-term storage. Hydrogen peroxide and NaOCl are more effective than EW in inhibiting B. subtilis subsp. subtilis and in reducing total bacterial loads in air- and vacuum-packaged seaweed.

We investigated changes in fruit quality of Hallabong tangor (Citrus Kiyomi ${\times}$ ponkan) that was packaged with Si+CaO and LDPE film. The flesh ratio during storage was 74.33% (${\pm}3.66$) to 81.56% (${\pm}1.38$). Firmness of M16A, a variant of Hallabong tangor, was higher 100g-force than that of Hallabong tangor, changes of firmness was not shown among film packages. A fruit juice was $12-14^{\circ}$Brix, and this increased somewhat at the end of storage without film packaging. The titratable acidity of the M16A variety was 0.2% lower than that of the Hallabong tangor. Hallabong and M16A maintained freshness and taste for 120 and 60 days, respectively. The level of reducing sugars in the Hallabong tangor was 1% higher than that of the M16A variety. Reducing sugars increased at room temperature storage without film packaging. Total sugar content was 9.19% (${\pm}2.03$) to 12.78% (${\pm}0.75$). The content of vitamin C declined slowly after 105 days of storage. In conclusion, storage of Hallabong tangor with film packaging coated with Si+CaO was effective for maintaining freshness and quality.

Fresh-cut burdock roots were processed at 4 and $25^{\circ}C$, respectively. The fresh-cut burdock roots were treated with different browning inhibitors (3% citric acid, 3% sodium chloride, 0.3% cystein, and 3% sodium acetate solutions), and the changes in their quality and browning characteristics were investigated. The respiration rate and browning index of the cut roots prepared at $4^{\circ}C$ were lower than those of the cut roots prepared at $25^{\circ}C$. The soluble solid content was higher in the cut roots prepared at $4^{\circ}C$ than in those prepared at $25^{\circ}C$. The weight loss and flesh firmness were not affected by the processing temperatures. Among the browning inhibitors, 0.3% cystein showed the best browning-retarding effect. There was no difference in phenolic compound content between the browning-inhibitor-treated roots and the nontreated roots, but the PPO activity was higher in the latter than in the former. Therefore, the processing temperatures of fresh-cut burdock roots affected their quality and browning development, and the combination of a low processing temperature and the use of the proper browning inhibitor should be applied for the higher quality of the produce.

To develop a new functional kimchi with cognition-enhancing properties, black Panax ginseng extract (0.5-5%, w/w) was added to a baechu kimchi preparation and the mixture stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for 30 days. Compared with control kimchi, the L values of ginseng-treated material were significantly decreased, but the a and b values were increased. The hardness value of ginseng-treated kimchi was significantly higher than that of control material from the $20^{th}$ day of storage. The edibility period of baechu kimchi treated with ginseng was prolonged by approximately 15 days compared with control kimchi. This resulted from decreases in the numbers of lactic acid bacteria and yeasts during the final stages of fermentation in ginseng-treated material. Inhibition of acetylcholinesterase activity by ginseng-treated kimchi was 2-fold higher than that of control material. A strong ginseng flavor and a bitter taste were evident in kimchi treated with 5% (w/w) ginseng, and sensory quality was thus decreased compared with control material. It was concluded that an appropriate concentration of black ginseng extract was 3% (w/w) in preparation of kimchi with a cognition-enhancing effect.

$Jeot-gal$ 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.
