최소 가공 수박의 가공과 유통 중 품질 열화에 있어 가장 중요한 문제는 과육의 조직연화이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 세포 분리를 제한하고 과실 조직의 경도를 유지시키는데 효과가 있는 것으로 알려져 있는 칼슘제제 중 calcium chloride, calcium lactate, CaO를 처리하여, 최소 가공 수박에서 조직연화로 발생되는 품질저하 억제에 가장 효과적인 칼슘제제를 알아보고자 하였다. 수박의 과육부위를 2cm의 정육면체 형태로 절단한 후, 0.5% calcium chloride, 0.5% calcium lactate, 0.05% CaO용액에 3분 동안 침지시켰다. 그리고 fan을 이용하여 상온에서 30분 동안 draining한 다음 PP tray에 담아 PP film로 sealing하고 $10^{\circ}C$에서 일주일간 저장하며 품질변화를 살펴보았다. 호흡특성은 0.05% CaO 및 0.5% calcium chloride용액을 처리한 구가 호흡률이 가장 낮게 나타났다. 가용성고형분은 처리 직후 처리구의 함량이 무처리구에 비해 다소 낮아지는 경향을 보였으나, 저장기간 중 0.5% calcium chloride 용액처리구는 다른 처리구에 비하여 큰 함량 변화 없이 당도가 일정 수준으로 유지되었다. pH 변화는 0.5% calcium chloride용액 처리구에서 변화가 가장 작았으며, 경도변화 역시 저장 초기값과 비교하였을 때보다 감소가 적게 일어나 다른 처리구에 비하여 연화 저해에 효과가 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 따라서 최소가공 수박에 대해 칼슘제제 중 calcium chloride용액 처리가 품질유지에 가장 효과적임을 알 수 있었다.

Soybean curd added with 40% of cow’s milk was prepared with eight coagulants such as calcium acetate, calcium lactate, calcium chloride, calcium sulfate, magnesium chloride, glucono-delta lactone (GDL), acetic acid and lactic acid. The curd products were evaluated by the chemical composition, coprecipitation porperties, mineral content, yield, color and textural characteristics. The lowest concentrations for protein coprepitation were 0.3% (v/v) for calcium salts, 0.4% (v/v) for magnesium chloride, 0.2% (v/v) for organic acids. Turbidity and crude protein of whey were markedly decreased at these concentrations. The optimal concentrations of coagualnts used for soybean curd preperation were 1.2% (v/v) for calcium acetate, calcium sulfate and calcium lactate, 1.0% (v/v) for calcium chloride and GDL, 0.8% (v/v) for magnesium chloride and lactic acid, 0.6% (v/v) for acetic acid. It was observed that of the eight coagulants tested, calcium chloride provided a satisfactory curd in quality. Calcium content of soybean curds by the calcium salt coagulants was higher than that by organic acid coagulants. Through the examination on the textural properties by a texturemeter was found out that acetic acid treated soybean curd among the organic acids, calcium salts and magnesium chloride treated curds had very high hardness value. All the curd products prepared in this experiment had a pale yellow color as affected by the value of L (lightness), a (redness) and b (yellowness). Although the colorimetric readings showed that the soybean curds prepared with the organic acids had higher L value but lower a and b value in comparison to calcium salts and magnesium chloride treated curds.

This study was, firstly, to investigate water holding capacity in terms of variation of moisture sorption isotherms of seasoned squid treated with sodium lactate, glycerol, propylene glycol, sorbitol, mannitol, sodium benzoate, potassium sorbate and calcium propionate, and secondly, the effect of humectant treatments on storage stability was studied. The criteria for storage stability was based on three quality factors, namely, lipid oxiations, color development by non-enzymatic browning reactions and lipid oxidation, and mold growth. The effect of humectants on equilibrium moisture content was in the following increasing order; mannitol < sorbitol < sodium lactate < propylene glycol < glycerol. The experimental data indicated that sodium lactate has, in practice, potentially positive effect on processing of seasoned squid. During the storage period of 60 days, TBA values increased in all samples tested as humectants concentrations increased up to 10%. However, in the range of 1-7% sodium lactate treatment, the degree of lipid oxidation, browning reactions and mild growth were not high enough to affect the quality of seasoned squid, when compared with conventionally manufactured ones.

In order to enhance the firmness and shelf-life of kimchi, as well as to increase the content of well-absorbed digestible calcium, the effect of calcium lactate (CaL) treatment of salted Chinese cabbage on pH, tit ratable acidity, total microbes, lactic acid bacteria, alcohol insoluble substance (AIS) content, firmness, mineral content and tissue structure were investigated. Treatment with the Cal solution increased pH and decreased titratable acidity, which was more pronounced at higher concentrations. The edible period evaluated by pH was 7～8 days for non-treated kimchi, 10 days for 1 % treated kimchi, 15 days for 2% treated kimchi and 20 days for 3% treated kimchi. Total microbes were reduced, but lactic acid bacteria counts were higher in the treated group. CaL treated kimchi showed higher AIS content and firmer texture, which was more conspicuous in the 2 and 3% CaL treated groups. Calcium content in kimchi fermented for 15 days was 40.75～41.53 mg%, which is 42～45% higher than that in the control group. The sodium content was 23～54% less in the treated groups. The epidermis and vascular bundle tissue of kimchi fermented for 15 day was damaged more severely in the control group than in the treated group. CaL treated kimchi has a crispier taste and the development of sour taste was delayed. Therefore, addition of CaL can produces a kimchi with high calcium as well as superior texture and shelf-life, when adjusting the concentration according to the fermentation periods.

The growth inhibitory effects of chloride salts and organic acid salts against six food-borne microorganisms (Bacillus cereus ATCC 11778, Escherichia coli O157:H7 ATCC 43894, Listeria monocytogenes ATCC 19111, Salmonella Typhimurium ATCC 14028, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, Vibrio parahaemolyticus ATCC 17802) were determined using Bioscreen C in broth medium. The growth inhibitory concentrations of sodium chloride and potassium chloride on B. cereus were 7 and 9%, respectively. E. coli O157:H7 and S. aureus were inhibited by treatment of 3% calcium chloride. Magnesium chloride showed growth inhibitory effect on B. cereus, S. Typhimurium, and S. aureus at 5%. The order of growth inhibition effects by organic acid salts was calcium propionate>calcium acetate>calcium lactate. Calcium chloride (3%) with 0.01% lactic acid showed strong inhibition on the growth of S. Typhimurium and exhibited stronger growth inhibition than calcium chloride alone (5%). We concluded that calcium chloride and calcium propionate had strong growth inhibitory activities and that calcium chloride and sodium chloride in combination with lactic acid had stronger inhibitory activities than that of chloride salts alone.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of substituting NaCl by sodium citrate, potassium lactate and calcium ascorbate (40%) on the quality characteristics of emulsion-type sausages. The pH of emulsion-type sausage of the substitution NaCl with sodium citrate were higher than those of control and the other(P<0.05). The CIE L* value emulsion-type sausage of the substitution NaCl with sodium citrate were higher than those of control and the other(P<0.05). The CIE a* value emulsion-type sausage of the substitution NaCl with potassium lactate were higher than those of control and the other, but CIE b* value were lower(P<0.05). The hardness and gumminess of emulsion-type sausage of the substitution NaCl with sodium citrate were higher than those of control and the other. The Na content of emulsion-type sausage of substitution NaCl with calcium ascorbate were lower than those of control and the other, but Ca content were higher(P<0.05). The K and Fe content of emulsion-type sausage of the substitution NaCl with potassium lactate were higher than those of control and the other(P<0.05). The saltiness of emulsion-type sausage of the substitution NaCl with sodium citrate were higher than those of control and the other(P<0.05). The flavor of emulsion-type sausage of the substitution NaCl with calcium ascorbate were higher than those of control(P<0.05).

To facilitate the effective use of butter clam shell as a natural calcium resource, we determined the optimal conditions for calcium lactate (BCCL) preparation with high solubility using response surface methodology (RSM). The polynomial models developed by RSM for pH, solubility and yield were highly effective in describing the relationships between factors (P<0.05). Increased molar ratios of calcined powder (BCCP) from butter clam shell led to reduced solubility, yield, color values and overall quality. The critical values of multiple response optimization to independent variables were 1.75 M and 0.94 M for lactic acid and BCCP, respectively. The actual values (pH 7.23, 97.42% for solubility and 423.22% for yield) under optimization conditions were similar to the predicted values. White indices of BCCLs were in the range of 86.70–90.86. Therefore, organic acid treatment improved color value. The buffering capacity of BCCLs was strong, at pH 2.82 to 3.80, upon the addition of less than 2 mL of 1 N HCl. The calcium content and solubility of BCCLs were 6.2–16.7 g/100 g and 93.6-98.5%, respectively. Fourier transform analysis of infrared spectroscopy data identified BCCL as calcium lactate pentahydrate, and the analysis of microstructure by field emission scanning electron microscopy revealed an irregular form.

Precipitation and reactive distillation were employed to recover lactic acid from fermentation broth. Lime was initially added to fermentation broth in order to convert soluble lactic acid to an insoluble calcium lactate form. Drowning-out crystallization was used to decrease the solubility of calcium lactate by adding ethanol as a co-precipitant. In the ideal solution of organic acids as well as fermentation broth, precipitation experiments were performed with varying amounts of ethanol. Precipitation process was followed by reactive distillation. Carboxylate salts formed in the previous precipitation process were mixed with carbon dioxide and triethylamine to precipitate as calcium carbonate. The remaining liquid was distilled for 1 hr at different temperatures. Triethylamine and water were recovered from the top of the distiller, while organic acids, inducing lactic acid as a main component remained in feeding bottle. The yield of recovered lactic acid was 67.5% with the purity of 99.7%.

Texture analysis, sensory evaluation, and scanning electronic microscopic (SEM) observation were conducted to evaluate the effects of different calcium salts (calcium lactate, calcium acetate, and calcium chloride) and vitamin C on the textural properties of kimchi, gamma-irradiated at 25 kGy. Increase of the hardness and sensory score were observed in the kimchi pretreated with calcium salt or vitamin C as compared with the untreated and irradiated kimchi. And the hardness and sensory quality of the co-pretreated sample with 0.01% of calcium lactate and 0.3% of vitamin C were the highest after 30 days at $35^{\circ}C$, which indicates that the co-pretreatment is effective in preventing a decrease of the texture and sensory qualities of kimchi by gamma irradiation. Also, this result was supported by the SEM observation.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of green tea garlic paste added calcium. Garlic was heated with green tea and charcoal at high temperature ($120^{\circ}C$) and high pressure ($1.5\;kgf/cm^2$) for 20 min, and then added several calcium sources (calcium carbonate, calcium citrate, calcium lactate, mixed calcium, calcium powder). Calcium carbonate, mixed calcium or calcium powder significantly increased pH of green tea garlic paste (p<0.05). All kinds of calcium sources significantly increased the viscosity of green tea garlic paste (p<0.05). Solid soluble content of green tea garlic paste was increased only in calcium citrate and calcium powder groups. Lightness, redness and yellowness of green tea garlic paste with calcium were increased, compared with control group (green tea garlic paste without calcium). The antioxidant activities by DPPH and hydroxyl radical scavenging activity of green tea garlic paste added calcium citrate, calcium lactate or calcium carbonate group were much higher than those of the other control groups. The garlic odor and garlic taste by sensory test were significantly weaker in calcium carbonate or calcium citrate group (p<0.05). Based on these results, it was suggested that calcium carbonate or calcium citrate is appropriate material for deodorizing and fortifying agent for green tea garlic paste.
