Microbiological quality of commercial white ginseng was examined, together with investigation on its water absorption pattern and radiosensitivity of molds isolated from the samples. Comparative effects of phosphine fumigation and gamma irradiation on microbial control and disinfestation of the samples packed in a commercial laminated film and stored for six months at ambient(20oC, 70% RH) and accelerated(40oC, 90% RH) conditions were studied. Commercial white ginseng was contaminated with coliforms by 103~104CFU/g and molds by 102~104CFU/g and thus decontamination process was required for hygienic quality and storage stability. Phosphine fumigation showed no sterilizing effects on microbes contaminated, while gamma irradiation at around 5kGy was effective for decontaminating microorganisms, showing D10 values of 0.48~0.60kGy for isolated molds. Even though the storage insects, Plodia interpuctella Hubner and Lasioderma serricorne(cigarette beetle) were easily destroyed by phosphine fumigation, gamma irradiation less than 5kGy was found effective for both purposes to improve biological quality of stored white ginseng, thereby extending the storage life of packed samples resulting from increased critical moisture content by about 1%(Aw 0.76).

During the controlled atmosphere storage (CA), fresh ginseng showed good appearance in quality, and other deterioration of freshness was not observed until 12 weeks. On the other hand, MA storage had kept freshness only in treatment of 1 until 8 weeks. There was no significant difference between treated and non-treated sample with preservatives, and not treated sample was not infected with various different fungi. Moisture contents and hardness of ginseng in all treatments were not changed much until 12 weeks, and surface shrinkage did not occur either. But shear stress increased somewhat in all treatments after 12 weeks. The granule of microstructure in tissue diminished slightly. The apparent Quality of red ginseng was good until 4 weeks of treatment. But as time passed, white skin and wrinkled skin were generated and darkened in its color. B-1 in CA and E-1 in MA were found to be the most favorable one. The content of crude saponin did not change significantly during storage of CA or MA by preservation conditions and period. Though a small increase in saponin content from 4.92% to 5.43% was recognized in B-1, which was treated with preservative and 6.0% In B-2, control, this could rather explain increment of soluble component by butanol. Thus, there was no change in total contents of ginsenoside pattern and composition of each content. The Rbl content in B-1 and B-2 were 0.98%, and 0.97%, respectively, whereas that of control was 0.96%. E-1 of MA, treated with preservative was 5.32% after 12 weeks, but was 5.73% in control, indicating that ginsenosides pattern was quite similar to that of CA storage.

The objective of this study was to develop bioactive ginseng yogurt, fermented by B. minimum KK-1 and B. cholerium KK-2, which showed transforming activity of ginseng extract to compound K. Among older people, 3% ginseng yogurt fermented by B. minimum KK-1 and mixed with Bifidobacterium KK-1, KK-2 showed the highest overall acceptability(6.80, 6.80) among 1%(3.87, 3.67), 2%(4.40, 4.53) and 3% ginseng yogurt. The pH of ginseng yogurt was lower than that of plain yogurt. During 9 days of storage, the pH of each yogurt slightly decreased and then increased until 15 days of storage. The 3 8.25 log CFU/g and B. cholerium KK-2; 7.78 log CFU/g). Therefore, ginseng might be used as a growth factor during the fermentation of yogurt. The L value of ginseng yogurt decreased, and the a and b values increased, with increasing ginseng concentration.

Comparative effects of phosphine fumigation and gamma irradiation were evaluated on the qualities of white ginseng prepacked in a commercial laminated film in terms of water absorption, Hunter color parameters(L, a, b) and organoleptic properties(overall color/appearance, flavor) during 6 months of storage at ambient(20oC, 70% RH) and accelerated(40oC, 90% RH) conditions. Moisture content of packed white ginseng(initial 8.44%) linearly increased with storage period, thereby reaching to about 10% (r=0.9966) in ambient and more than 15%(r=0.9886) in accelerated conditions, respectively, at the 6th month of storage. The storage at severe conditions resulted in remarkable changes in Hunter's color values, decrease in whiteness(L) and increase in redness(a) and yellowness(b), while both treatments, phosphine and irradiation less than 5kGy, did not cause any significant changes in color parameters. Phosphine fumigation was shown detrimental to overall flavor of white ginseng(p<0.01), however or ganoleptic qualities of stored samples were effectively maintained by irradiation less than 5kGy(p< 0.05). As the index on the guality of white ginseng stored at severe conditions its organoleptic quality was highly correlated with moisture content(r= 0.9777) and Hunter color values(over 0.9), suggesting the critical values of 15.5% moisture and 72.56, 7.15, 21.45 in Hunter's L, a, b values, respectively.

Identification and changes of physiologically active substances during chilling storage of dehisced ginseng (Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer) seeds were analyzed using various preparatory separation methods and purification columns; Dowex 50W and silica gel columns. Seven components with Rf values of 0.20, 0.40, 0.58, 0.66, and 0.70 In solvent system, $CHCl_3$:MeOH=3:1 (v/v), Rf values of 0. 63 and 0.74 in solvent system, $CHCl_3$:MeOH:$H_2O$:=7:3:1 (v/v) were obtained through Dowex 50W and silica gel column chromatographies. Two components with Rf values of 0.20 and 0.63 in the all chilling treatments were detected in the extract obtained through both chromatographies, and only the former component was gradually increased till 4 weeks of chilling storage and then rapidly decreased from 8 to 16 weeks. UV spectra of Rf values of 0.66 and 0.56 were similar to that of cytokinin, but their physiological activities were not found. Rf values of 0.20 showed activity by radish cotyledon expansion bioassay. The component with Rf value of 0.20 was revealed to have a naphthalene in the proposed chemical structure by various NMR techniques.

The pattern of volatile emissions from white ginseng powders (WGP) that were treated with selected preservatives was investigated during 5-months of storage (at -10 and $25^{\circ}C$) by an electronic nose system equipped with 12 metal-oxide sensors. WGP were treated with gamma radiation at 5 kGy, commercial methyl bromide (MeBr), and phosphine fumigations. Electronic nose differentiated the volatile patterns of the WGP with each different preservative treatment. In addition, each volatile pattern was affected by both storage time (1, 2 and 5 months) and temperature (-10 and $25^{\circ}C$). After 5-months of storage, the least change of volatile patterns was observed from WGP fumigated with phosphine at $-10^{\circ}C$. The result also showed that volatile changes in WGP were much more affected by storage time than by storage temperature.

A study was designed to investigate the sorption characteristics of binary mixture of red ginseng powder and maltodextrin(DE-17) or lactose stored at various relative humidities ranging from 52% to 93%. At low relative humilities below RH 67%, the sorption equilibrium was easily achieved, whereas at higher relative humidity values over 75%, all of the mixtures tended to absorb moisture continuously with an increase in storage time. A linear equation of log(dw/dt): a log(t)+ log b was found to be valid between the sorption rate and storage time with respect to storage humilities. A linearity was also found between log(1-Aw) and the amount of water absorbed over the Aw range of 0.52∼0.93 and the slope was affected by the kind of sugar added with that of red ginseng powder and maltodextrin mixture being the smallest.

Ginseng seeds are one of short-lived seeds species which loose their viability easily in the condition of conventional storage. Cryopreservation using liquid nitrogen (LN) has been recommended as a alternative storage for this kind of germplasm short lived or dessiccation-sensitive. This study was performed to find out whether cryopreservation could affect physiological change such as enzyme activity induced by reactive oxygen species. In this work, the redox ratio of ascorbate and glutathione were examined onto ginseng seedlings before and after LN storage of seeds for 1 day using spectrophotometer method. Reduced ascorbate (ASA) was increased while oxidized ascorbate (DHA) was decreased slightly for both after 1d-LN storage. And for glutathione also, reduced form (GSH) was increased while oxidized form (GSSG) was decreased slightly for both after 1d-LN storage. Consequently total phenol compound and ion leakage after LN storage showed no significant differences. Additionally root growth from the seeds after LN storage was not affected by ultra low temperature. From the above results, we may suggest that cryopreservation could be recommended for storage tool of ginseng seeds even with low viability also and expected to make slower seed aging process during preservation period through further study.

한국전매공사에서 연차별로 제조 포장된 홍상시료를 실온조건(12~$18^{\circ}C$, RH 55~68%)에서 1년에서 9년까지 장기간 저장하면서 갈색화반응의 특성과 항산화효과를 조사하였다. 홍삼의 저장기간이 경괴됨에 따라 갈색도는 뚜렷한 증가 경향을 보였고 pH값은 다소 감소되는 경향이었는데, 이들 변화는 장기저장 홍삼에 있어서 갈색화반응이 촉진되었음을 시사하 준다. 저장 홍삼의 갈색화반응은 유리아미노산과 유리당이 직접 반응하여 촉진되는 마이야르 갈색화반응 초기단게의 경우 보다는 여러 갈색화반응 중간생성물들의 상호반응에 의한 후기단계의 특성이라고 볼 수 있다. 또한 50% 에탄올 추출물 및 물 추출물에 대한 환원활성과 에칠아세테이트 추출물에 대한 항산화효과는 저장기간이 증가됨에 따라 그 활성이 증가되었다. 이들 활성의 증가는 홍삼의 제조 및 저장기간동안 비효소적 반응생성물들의 활성증가에 따른 효과에 기인되는 것으로 생각된다.
