The purpose of this study was to compare the storage and post-storage changes of Cheorwon onions and onions for each region. Onion is a perennial plant belonging to the lily family. It is native to Persia of Southwest Asia. It is cultivated much in the temperate regions of the world. Cheorwon area is inland, but it has high continental climate due to its high altitude. Therefore it is said that the onion cultivated in this region has higher sugar content and higher taste than onion grown in southern region. Although the results of onion storage experiments in Cheorwon, Muan, Buan, and Changnyeong regions did not show much difference in weight, width, and height measurements before and after storage, Brix was reduced by approximately 1-2 brix. Before and after storing in each region, Brix was the highest in Cheorwon, Changnyeong, Buan, and Muan, and after saving, onions in Cheorwon were the same order. After each region was stored, the results showed that Cheorwon (112.3g), Muan (106g), Buan (102.1g) and Changnyeong (92.6g) had the highest hardness. Cold storage tests show that onions contain the least amount of corruption in paper boxes, while Cheorwon onions have the lowest level of corruption in other areas.

The purpose of this study was investigated the quality changes before and after harvesting, storage and, processing of onion. Experiments were carried out to compare the effect on the characteristics of the postharvest from preharvest factors using onion. This experiment had identified the characteristics of harvested onions after cultivating with several preharvest factors such as the light and water conditions. These tests were conducted in an onion growth in the field, storage, and processing of fresh-cut during a laboratory periods of 2 years. In first year, onion cultivars ('Kars' and 'Pop') were produced under stable or unstable environment conditions, these onions were stored at low temperature(0?). Measurement was evaluated by the growth amount after harvesting, and the fresh weight loss and respiration rate during storage. According to different culture conditions and storage temperatures, it was investigated the properties of the fresh-cut onion. Growth of onion was varied depending on the cultivars and culture conditions. The amount of growth on 'Kars' and 'Pop' onions were decreased by excessive soil water conditions with shading. These influences were found the morphological differences resulting for the cell tissue of onion being rough and large. Onion cultivated in excessive soil water with shading affected the degree of its respiration rate and fresh weight loss during storage. Ones in excessive soil water with shading were higher than the control in fresh weight loss and respiration rate, respectively. However fresh-cut onion could not investigated to clarify the difference due to effects of cultivation condition and storage temperature on some measure items such as electrolyte leakage and microbial number change. There was a change of only electrolyte leakage depending on the storage temperature, rather than cultivated conditions before harvesting factor. The results showed that the onion grown on in the good environment was represented to a good quality produce even after harvesting.

This investigation was undertaken for the purpose of studying the quality and sensoryptability of Jangduck during storage containing various levels of glutinous rice flour. Composition of experiment Jangduck made with different components and contents. A standard samples of Jangduck were soybean paste : glutinous rice flour : ground beef : green onion : garlic : toasted white sesame=100 : 10 or 20 or 30 : 30 : 10 : 5 : 2 (％) and measured acceptability by 15 days. Jangduck estimated for texture characteristics through acceptability. The acceptability of Jangduck was by both objective and subjective methods. Objective measures were made utilizing the Rheometer and Hunter colorimeter. Sensory evaluated was done by a panel of 10 judges. The data analysis revealed following as for estimate of texture changes during storage by Rheometer, the hardness tended to increase as the addition level of glutinous rice flour and beef till 30 days. Hardness decreased slightly after 30 days of storage. Elasticity and cohesiveness tended to increase as the addition level of glutinous rice flour till 15 days and decreased slightly from 16 days to 60 days later By color value of Jangduck, Lightness tended to increase as the addition level of beef during storage periods. Redness tended to increased as addition level of beef before storage and decreased 15 days later. Yellowness increasde than others from days later to 15 days later as the addition level of glutinous rice flour. The result of sensory evaluation revealed that Cl [soybean paste : glutinous rice flour : ground beef : green onion : garlic : toasted white sesame=100 : 30 : 30 : 10 : 5 : 2(％)] produced the best quality in most sensory characteristics during storage.
