This study was aimed to determine microbiological Quality by adding green tea extracts to cook-chill foods. For this study, Pyeonyuk were blended with green tea extracts to different concentrations of 0, 2 and 3% and prepared in a cook-chill system. Microbiological effects of green tea extracts were assessed during production process by measuring process time, temperature, pH and A wand determining total plate counts and coliforms. Effects of green tea extracts on total plate counts and coliforms were observed during cold storage at 3$^{\circ}C$ for five days. Green tea extracts improved the microbiological Quality and showed antibacterial properties when they are added to Pyeonyuk prepared in a cook-chill production system. The use of green tea extracts can be further explored as a means of enhancing freshness and Quality in cook-chill foods.

Changes in sensory and physical characteristics of Wanjajeon (Korean pan fried meat balls) were investigated during chill storage for a hospital cook/chill foodservice system. Wanjajeon was cooked, stored at 2$^{\circ}C$ or 7$^{\circ}C$ for 4 weeks, and reheated by using a microwave oven. The physical characteristics such as texture, color and organoleptic properties were measured. The chewiness of Wanjajeon increased during 4 weeks of storage at both temperatures. Reheating of stored Wanjajeon resulted in a significant increase in the hardness and chewiness. The redness (a value) was significantly increased, while the lightness and yellowness (L and b values) were changed slightly. Sensory evaluation showed that Wanjajeon was acceptable for up to 3 weeks of storage at 2$^{\circ}C$ and to 2 weeks at 7$^{\circ}C$. The sample stored at 2$^{\circ}C$ was more acceptable than that of 7$^{\circ}C$ storage through the whole period.

To measure nutritional components and physical quality of Wanja-jeon(Korean pan fried meat balls)was investigated during storage in a simulated hospital cook/chill foodservice system. The Wanja-jeon was cooked and stored for 4 weeks in chill conditions of 2 and 7$^{\circ}C$ and then reheated in the microwave oven. Moisture, protein, and fat contents were decreased little during 4 weeks storage at 2 and 7$^{\circ}C$. Total unsaturated fatty acids(TUFA) and polyunsaturated fatty acids(PUFA) increased slightly at 7$^{\circ}C$ storage. Total free amino acid contents were reduced after 4 weeks of storage, while total amino acids were affected little during chilled storage. However, volatile basic nitrogen(VBN) increased during the 4 weeks storage from 11.2mg%, immediately after cooking, to 14.1~14.2mg%. After reheating, thiobarbituric acid(TBA) value increased more significantly to 0.19 and 0.20.

The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of several reheating treatments (immersing the package into hot water, heating the soup in the pot and convection ovens after taking out of the opened package. heating the soup package in microwave) on the sensory characteristics of cook-chill and sous-vide spinach soup. Sensory evaluations were made on 5 sensory attributes by a 12-member panel using quantitative descriptive analysis(QDA). The fresh cooked spinach soup had a significantly(p＜0.01) higher score in color than the reheated sous-vide one. The latter, however, had a significantly(p＜0.05) higher score in taste than the former. Overall acceptability of the sous-vide spinach soup was not different from that of fresh cooked one, which supports the potential of the product in foodservice operation for the efficient management of meal plan. Reheating treatments didn't show any differences in taste, flavor, color, texture, appearance and overall acceptability. Therefore, any reheating treatment nay be used for cook-chill and sous-vide spinach soup.

This study aimed to determine the physicochemical, microbiological, and sensory qualityies of steamed chicken samples by prepared with combined additions of oregano-allspice and Ascorbic acid (OA/AA), and processed by a sous-vide cook - chill system. The hurdle effect of the OA/AA addition was examined in terms of microbial stability improvements and their effects on sensory were also evaluated. First, the microbial risk was lowered and chicken quality was good with the addition of the OA/AA hurdle as compared to the control. Second, over various days of storage, the microbial quality of the OA/AA samples was relatively high. In standard plate counts, the control group presented a bacteria level of 2.75 LogCFU/g at 10 days of storage, but the OA/AA groups were had counts of 2.38, 1.89 and 1.81 LogCFU/g, respectively. And at 15 days of storage, the control group had a level of 3.65 LogCFU/g whereas the OA/AA groups had counts of 3.55, 3.54, and 3.24 LogCFU/g, respectively. Lastly, the sensory scores of the OA/AA groups were higher than those of the control group. Accordingly, overall microbial and sensory characteristics were better in the OA/AA hurdle groupsf than in the control group. Thus, the combined addition of Oregano-allspice and Ascorbic acid may be and alternative means for extending shelf - life.

Medicinal cooked rice with Astragalus membranaceus extract and garlic was developed as a ready-to-eat product. The response surface methodology was used to examine the effect of garlic and Astragalus membranaceus extract addition on the color, texture, and sensory properties to optimize the product. The product was also analyzed for microbiological, sensory, and physical property changes during storage.As for the color, taste, and overall acceptability, the sensory scores increased with the increase of Astragalus membranaceus extracts (p<0.05). The sensory scores for the product ranged between 9.17~9.92 and foodborne microorganism such as Bacillus cereus, Salmonella, Staphylococcu aureus, and Eschericha coli were not detected after 13 storage days. Therefore, the possible shelf life was evaluated for up to13 days of storage. When considering health and convenience are important factors in the development of new food products, the medicinal and biological effects of garlic and Astragalus membranaceus could be useful for providing healthy diet options for senior consumers. The results of sensory and microbiological tests showed the potential for the commercialization of ready-to-eat cook-chill product as an alternative of cooked rice for Asian populations and Korean senior consumer market.
