This study was carried out to compare the quality characteristics including aroma compounds and pattern of M. Biceps femoris from Korean native black pigs (70kg, 6 months, KNP) and modern genotype pigs (103kg, 6 months, Landrace×Yorkshire, MGP) during vacuum-storage at 2±0.2℃ for 12 days. KNP had high contents of crude protein and ash, but low content of moisture as compared to MGP (p<0.05). KNP showed lower pH and higher cooking loss than MGP (p<0.05) during storage. CIE a* and b* values of KNP significantly higher during storage as compared to those of MGP (p<0.05). TBARS value of KNP significantly increased after 8 days as compared to that of MGP (p<0.05). Shear force value of KNP was higher than that of MGP until 8 days (p<0.05). Volatiles by SPME-GS/MS was slightly different between KNP and MGP, but aroma pattern by electronic nose was not different. Therefore, KNP had redder and darker color, higher cooking loss and harder texture than MGP. The sensory quality of KNP was better than those of MGP (p<0.05), although aroma characteristics by instruments were not different between KNP and MGP.

This study was conducted to evaluate the application of high dose irradiation for ensuring shelf stability of marinated and precooked pork rib steak in the severe environments such as desert or space, etc. Marinated and precooked pork rib steak was manufactured, vacuum-packaged and gamma-irradiated with the absorbed doses of 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 kGy, and used for the tests of the growth of microorganisms and lipid oxidation during storage at 35t of acceleration condition. Any growth of microorganisms was not observed in irradiated samples after irradiation immediately. However, the growths were observed in 10, 20 and 30 kGy samples at 4, 7 and 14 day storage, respectively. High dose (40 and 50 kGy) gamma irradiation retarded the growth of aerobic microorganisms by the analysis of kinetic parameter. The content of malondialdehyde increased in all samples during storage periods, and gamma irradiation accelerated the increase of lipid oxidation. Therefore, the application of combination of the various food processing technology should be considered for the sterilization of marinated and precooked pork rib steak without any deterioration of the quality occurred by high dose irradiation.

Quality stability and utilization of sardine protein concentrates were investigated. pH, water activity and amino-nitrogen contents of autoclaved and boiled products were little changed during the storage of 60 days. Available lysine contents of the both products at the initial stage of storage were 5.58g/16g-N and 5.69g/16g-N, respectively. But the available lysine contents and digestibility of the both products decreased slightly with increasing of storage time. Lipophilic and hydrophilic brown pigment formation of the both products increased during storage of 60 days, but peroxide value(POV) and thiobarbituric acid(TBA) value decreased. Total amino acid contents of the both products were in the range of $88.99{\~}89.90g/16g-N$, and the predominant ones were glutamic acid, aspartic acid, leucine and lysine. From the sensory scores of model snack, it is concluded that the sardine protein concentrate can be used as a source material for snack.

The changes in quality characteristics and shelf-life of vacuum-shrink packaged Bierschinken after stuffing in fibrous casing and stored at 5 and $10^{\circ}C$ were investigated The total aerobic plate count (APC) of Bierschinken was initially <2.00 $log_{10}CFU/cm^2$, however increased gradually over storage period The APCs of Bierschinken maintained at the level of 4.86 and 5.13 $log_{10}CFU/cm^2$ after 35 days at 5 and $10^{\circ}C$, respectively. pH tended to decrease with the extension of storage period The values of TBA and VBN tended to increase with storage time, of which trend was pronounced at $10^{\circ}C$ rather than at $5^{\circ}C$. According to the sensory evaluation, Bierschinken had the marketing value till 28 days irrespective of storage temperature. The shelf-life of Bierschinken tested might be preferentially restricted by the occurrence of off-odor and off-flavor at the end of storage period.

The effects of different dehydration conditions for the removal of ginkgo nut inner coat on peeled ginkgo nuts were examined using physical and sensory methods. Dehydration of ginkgo nuts at $90^{\circ}C$ for 120 min resulted in greater hardness, lightness (L), redness (a), yellowness (b), and firmness. Higher roasted flavor and larger holes were observed with dehydration at $150^{\circ}C$ for 30 min and greater cooked ginkgo flavor and green color with dehydration at $120^{\circ}C$ for 50 min. Based on these findings, dehydration at $120^{\circ}C$ for 50 min was determined as the adequate hot air dehydration condition for the removal of ginkgo nut inner coat. Ginkgo nuts stored at $25^{\circ}C$ maintained overall desirability up to 4 weeks. In ginkgo nuts stored at $4^{\circ}C$, all sensory desirabilities evaluated were reasonably high until 60 days of storage; desirability of appearance decreased moderately at 80 days of storage, and appearance became very undesirable at 180 days. Ginkgo nuts stored at $-18^{\circ}C$ showed little changes until 10 months of storage, but slight decreases in overall desirability, flavor, and texture were noted at 12 months.

We performed an experiment of keeping the extension of raw and semi-dried flounder (Pleuronectes herzensteini). The effect of with (WG) or without gill (OG), drying degree (20% drying: 20D, 40% drying: 40D) and storage temperature($5^{\circ}C$) and 0.1% chitosan-ascorbate (CA) treatment of vacuum packaging flounder on the growth of contaminated microorganism during storage for 10 days were investigated. Total aerobacter (TA) in the OG-treated raw flounder was $0.29{\sim}0.44$ log cycle lower than that of WG-treated flounder. Also, the number of Staphylococcus aureus (SA) and E. coli (EO) in OG were lower compared with WG. The number of TA, SA and EO in 20 D among 0 D, 20 D and 40 D stored at $5^{\circ}C$ were lowest. Especially, the SA and EO was $0.13{\sim}0.53$, 0.3-0.88, and 0.13-0.74 log cycle lower compared with raw flounder. The growth of TA, SA and EO separated from raw flounder in tryptic soy broth were completely inhibited by 0.1% CA. The anti-biotical effect of CA of two microorganisms SA and EO that separated from flounder, and the growth of all of them were 90% (SA), 96% (EO) inhibited at the 0.1% CA. The inhibition times at $37^{\circ}C$ in soy broth was 36 hr. However when CA was added directly to flounder, it appeared inhibition effect to 0.88 log cycle. The effect of CA was better when gills removed and 20% drying.

With the recent increase in maintenance works on water and sewer pipes as well as district heating supply pipes, pavement cutting work using pavement cutter is on the rise. The pavement cutting operation generates considerable dust (cutting sludge) as well as noise; therefore, it is necessary to apply eco-friendly technologies that have low noise and dust recovery capability. Thus far, various equipment for recovering dust have been developed; however, there is a limitation in that the environmental friendliness is not quantified. Therefore, in this study, we developed a low-noise, dust-recovery type pavement cutter that can fundamentally remove the causes of environmental hazards such as noise and dust and evaluated the eco-friendliness of the pavement cutting process performed by this cutter. To this end, an integrated water cooling-sludge recovery system composed of a vacuum device and a sludge suction unit was developed, and the developed system was applied to a pavement cutter. Subsequently, the developed equipment was applied to the test bed, and data related to its eco-friendliness were collected and evaluated. The results showed that the cutting sludge recovery rate of the developed equipment was greater than 83%, the noise level was approximately 82 - 83 dB, and the sound power level was 115 dB. The results of this study will be used as basic data to develop improved pavement cutters in the future with improved cutting sludge recovery performance and lower noise.

This study was carried out to examine the quality of Korean pork regular loins and hams which m exported in Japanese market. The samples were stored at 0${\pm}$1$^{\circ}C$(A, B companies) and 2${\pm}$1$^{\circ}C$(C, D companies). In analysis of Korean pork exported to Japanese market, the pork of A and D companies showed below 10$\^$6/CFU/$\textrm{cm}^2$ of total aerobic bacteria at 40 days storage and panels felt off-flavor after 40 days. Therefore the edible period will be 40 days through the analysis of microbe and sensory test in porks of A and D companies. The porks of B and C companies showed over 10$\^$6/CFU/$\textrm{cm}^2$ of total aerobic bacteria at 50 days storage and panels couldn't feel off-flavor in sensory test after 50 days. Therefore the edible period will be 50 days through the analysis of microbe and sensory test in porks of B and C companies. As the results, shelf-life of A and D companies will be 32 days and B and C companies will be 40 days from edible period by a factor of 0.8. In analysis of stored pork for export in Korean market, the porks of A and B companies showed over 10$\^$6/CFU/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at 40 days storage and C and D companies did over 10$\^$6/CFU/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at 30 days storage in analysis of microbe. The pork of A and D companies showed 10$^4$CFU/$\textrm{cm}^2$ but B and C companies did 10$\^$5/CFU/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at 50 days in coliform count. Therefore shelf-life of the pork of A company was logest and the next were B and C, but shelf-life of the pork of D company was 20 days, therefore it was even shorter than the others.

The study was conducted to investigate the effects of practical variations in feed restriction, pre-slaughter handing and chilling regime on pork quality during ageing. A total of twenty male landraces were allocated into three treatments(i.e., pre-slaughter feeding, stress and chilling regime) in a factorial arrangement. pH, temperature, free calcium ions, WB-shear force, sarcomere length, cooking loss, drip loss and objective color were determined during rigor development and/or 1, 3, 7 d postmortem. Pre-slaughter chasing stress for approximately 15 min had no effects on pH/temperature profile and objective meat quality. There was an interaction(P < 0.05) between the fasting treatment and chi1ling regime for muscle temperature at pH 6.2. Sarcomere length indicated that the current experiment conditions did not induce muscle shortening, with 1.7 to 1.8 ${\mu}m$, in spite of a significant effect of the fasting treatment (P<0.01). Pigs fed until the morning of slaughter showed a low WB-shear force(P < 0.05) until 3 d at I "C. The treatment also resulted in a higher Hunter L* and a*(P < 0.05) at 24 h and 7 d. Fasted pigs showed a significantly(P < 0.05) reduced cooking loss. The current results indicated that feeding upon the morning of slaughter became detrimental on meat color and the negative effect on cooking loss were linearly elevated with increased ageing time. On the other hand, WB-shear force did not distinguishable after 3 d. Collectively, it appeared that feed restriction from a day before slaughter could produce more a desirable meat quality at the time of consuming. However, the limited effect of animal handling and chilling rate on meat quality is not necessarily to extend to that these do not affect pork quality, as that largely depends on experimental design.

In this study we evaluated the antimicrobial effects of EcoCal^® (calcium oxide) and GF Bactostop^® (organic acids mix) in sausages during storage at 10℃. The sausages were formulated with 0.1% EcoCal^® (0.1ECO), 0.1% EcoCal^®+0.5% GF Bactostop^® (0.1ECO+0.5GF), 0.2% EcoCal^® (0.2ECO), and 0.2% EcoCal^®+0.5% GF Bactostop^® (0.2ECO+0.5GF). Total aerobic and lactic acid bacteria in the sausages were enumerated on tryptic soy agar and Lactobacilli MRS agar, respectively, during storage at 10℃ for 10 weeks. The 0.1ECO+0.5GF showed the most effective antimicrobial effects on the sausages, and 0.1ECO showed the second most effective antimicrobial effect. Total aerobic bacterial cell counts gradually increased in the control, 0.2ECO, and 0.2ECO+0.5GF groups, but cell growth was generally inhibited in 0.1ECO by approximately day 42 (P<0.05) and 0.1ECO+0.5GF by approximately day 49 (P<0.05). Lactic acid bacterial cell counts gradually increased in the control, 0.2ECO, and 0.2ECO+0.5GF groups, but the lactic acid bacteria growth was inhibited in 0.1ECO by approximately day 49 (P<0.05) and in 0.1ECO+0.5GF by approximately day 64. These results suggest that using 0.1% EcoCal^®+0.5% GF Bactostop^® in sausage formulation is useful for inhibiting lactic acid bacteria growth, thereby extending the shelf-life of the sausage product.
