This study was carried out to investigate the changes on the components of salted eggplant(shikibu) during storage. The contents of total and reducing sugars were decreased during storage, and the tendency of decrease was lower in the salted eggplants of vacuum packing storage than in the salted eggplants of rice bran immersion storage. The contents of acetic and malic acid were higher than other organic acids. The content of acetic acid was increased during storage, but malic acid was decrease. The major amino acid were valine, leucine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid. The content of essential amino acids was increased during storage. Aspartic acid, alanine, cystine and proline were high content of free amino acids. The contents of phosphoserine, taurine, Y-aminoisobutyric acid and hydroxyproline were higher than others. Posphoserine content was decreased during storage, but Y-aminoisobutyric acid was increased to 5 times of fresh eggplant at 20 days of storage.

This study investigated the changes in the quality of minimally processed sliced Deodeok (Codonopsis lanceolata) during storage at $7^{\circ}C$ in relation to vacuum packing using PE film after the various surface washing treatments. The surface washing treatments resulted in approximately 1~2 log CFU/g reduction of microbial load in the early storage day. After 20 days, the weight loss rate, deterioration rate, hardness, color, total microorganism levels and the coliform count of deodeok washed by ultrasonic wave water was deteriorated rapidly like the control. When measured by the fresh-cut deodeok surface using the video microscope system, washing with chlorine water and electrolyzed water didn't seem to make perceivable quality deterioration during the 10 days at $7^{\circ}C$. The hardness and color maintenance of the product vacuum packaged using PE film after washing with electrolyzed water, was better than that of other treatments.

In the present paper, we investigated the quality stability of mackerel based burger during frozen storage. The moisture and crude lipid contents of products were $60.2{\sim}61.5%$ and $14.7{\sim}14.9%$, respectively. The pH showed a tendency of decrease, while volatile basic nitrogen content showed a tendency of increase during frozen storage. The histamine content was $2.60{\sim}2.81\;mg/100g$, and this value increased slowly during frozen storage. The increasing ratio in the peroxide value, carbonyl value, TBA value, fatty acid composition and color value of vacuum packed product and antioxidants added product were lower than those of air packed product. The texture profile analysis parameters such as hardness and toughness showed a tendency of a slight increase in air packed product and showed less increase in vacuum packed product and antioxidants added product. From the results of chemical experiments and sensory evaluation during frozen storage, it is concluded that the vacuum packed mackerel based burger and antioxidants added mackerel based burger were good condition for preserving the quality during frozen storage of 60 days.

The effects of dip treatments of chemicals (ascorbic acid, citric acid, calcium chloride: 1% solution) and physicals (vacuum packing, $50^{\circ}C$ distilled water) on the browning and quality of 'Daebo' peeled chestnut were studied. During the storage, the surface color of the samples showed higher ${\Delta}E$ values and lower L values than that of the initial sample. The color with the normal packing treatment hardly changed, unlike in the chemical and physical treatments. The calcium chloride treatment showed less color change than other treatments. The marketable quality was maintained for 10 days with the normal packing and for 35 days with the chemical and physical treatments. Thus, the chemical and physical treatments, especially with vacuum packing after 1% calcium chloride treatment, extended the shelf-life of the 'Daebo' peeled chestnut by inhibiting the browning.

Inappropriate storage of fresh-cut onions may result in losses of good quality. To understand storage conditions for shelf-life and quality of fresh-cut onions, The effect of packing type and storage temperature on the quality of fresh-cut onions was evaluated. Onions stored at $0^{\circ}C$ for 2 months were peeled off after removing root and shoot parts. Each three peeled onions were packed in a polyethylene film (PE, $50{\mu}m$) or in a polyethylene/polypropylene film (PE/PP, $100{\mu}m$) with vacuum treatment (70 cmHg) and stored at different temperatures (4, and $10^{\circ}C$) for 21 days. The following analyses were examined to evaluate the quality of fresh-cut onions: microbial population, surface color, titratable acidity and pH, respiration rate, and sensory quality. Fresh-cut onions stored at $4^{\circ}C$ showed less aerobic and coliform bacterial population than those stored at $10^{\circ}C$ during observation periods. Fungal populations of fresh-cut onions packed in PE film stored at $10^{\circ}C$ increased significantly after 13 days. E. coli was not detected in all treatments during whole storage periods. Surface colors of fresh-cut onions were not affected by packing type and storage temperature, however, color difference (${\Delta}E$) of fresh-cut onions in PE/PP film stored at $10^{\circ}C$ was significantly higher than those of other treatments. Titratable acidity of fresh-cut onions was not affected by packing type and storage temperature. However, pH of fresh-cut onions packed in PE film stored at $10^{\circ}C$ increased gradually over the whole storage period. Fresh-cut onions packed in PE film showed higher $CO_2$ and less $O_2$ concentrations at $10^{\circ}C$ than those at $4^{\circ}C$. The sensory quality of fresh-cut onions was significantly affected by packing type and storage temperature after 13 days. Particularly, vacuum treatment in PE/PP film showed better sensory quality than that of PE film package at the same storage temperature. It was concluded that vacuum treatment and storage at $4^{\circ}C$ could be effective to prolong the quality of fresh-cut onions up to 21 days.

In present paper, we investigated the quality stability of sardine burgers during storage at $-20{\pm}2^{\circ}C$. During frozen storage of sardine burger, the PH were decreased, while volatile basic nitrogen contents were increased. The results of changes in peroxide values, thiobarbituric acid values, fatty acid compositions and color values during frozen storage showed that lipid oxidation and discolorization of antioxidant treated sardine burger and vacuum packed sardine burger could be effectively retarded. The changes in the taste compounds such as free amino acid, nucleotide and their related compounds, total creatinine, betaine and trimethylamine oxide, total amino acids and texture profile analysis of vacuum packed sardine burger were negligible during frozen storage. From the results of sensory evaluation and chemical experiments, the vacuum packed sardine burger could be preserved in good quality during frozen storage of 90 days.

Alaska pollock roe is mainly used as a raw material for fermented seafood, especially in the East Asia. Kernels of Alaska pollock roe are not valuable as a raw material and usually discarded as a waste product. In order to utilize the broken roes of Alaska pollock, the smoked product, a imitated sausage, was manufactured for commercial production. Texture intensity (hardness and gumminess) and sensory evaluation (taste and acceptability) of the smoked Alaska pollock roe packed with collagen casing were evaluated based on mixture design and regression models. At higher concentration of carrageenan and lower concentration of starch in the formula of the smoked Alaska pollock roe, higher texture intensity and sensory scores were obtained. pH values of all treatments (control, vacuum and $N_2$ packages) increased up to 6.28, 6.23 and 6.24 on 4 months of storage, respectively, and then decreased. The numbers of VBN, TBA and viable cell counts increased during storage periods, higher in control than in vacuum and $N_2$ packages. Coliform bacteria was not detected in all treatment during storage periods.

To improve the individual packaging method and extend the shelf life of mackerel (Scomber japonicus), salted and unsalted mackerel fillets were packaged in laminated plastic film bag (Nylon/PE: $20{\mu}m/40{\mu}m,\;12{\times}15$ cm) filled with $CO_2$ gas, in vacuum, and stored at O and/or $5^{\circ}C$. The other samples were packaged in plastic foam trays, overwrapped with oxygen permeable film (control), and stored at same temperature. Volatile basic nitrogen (VBN), trimethylamine (TMA), histamine (HM) and viable cell counts (VCC) were progressed with the increasing of storage time, but thiobarbituric acid (TBA) values decreased gradually after reaching at a maximum peak in 5-9 days. Judging from 4 chemical components, VBN was the most available component in quality judgement of mackerel fillets and its upper limiting content was 25 mg%. Regression equation for shelf life prediction of mackerel fillets with sensory evaluation and VBN component was determined.
