This study, the changes in physicochemical properties and hesperidin content of Jeju-processed citrus fruits according to the harvest date were evaluate. The soluble-solid content, pH, and soluble solid-acid ratios gradually increased, but titratable acidity slightly decreased with a delay in the harvest date. The color index, lightness, yellowness, and turbidity slightly decreased whereas the redness slightly increased with a delay in the harvest date. The hesperidin content slightly decreased with a delay in the harvest date. Hesperidin, which is the major cause of juice cloudiness, decreased with a delay in the harvest date. These results suggest that later-harvested fruit juice is bound to be less cloudy.

An HPLC (high-performance liquid chromatography)-PDA (photodiode array) detection method was established for the determination of naringin, hesperidin and neohesperidin in the fruit of Citrus paradisi and C. grandis. The flavonoids were separated in less than 20 min using an YMC RP 18 column with isocratic elution using acetonitrile and water (23 : 77, v/v) at a flow rate of 1 ml/min, and a PDA detector. The levels of naringin, hesperidin and neohesperidin were 1345.92, 950.62, and 2078.82 ${\mu}g/g$, respectively, in the peel, and 102.43, 59.13, and 86.68 ${\mu}g/g$, respectively, in the flesh of C. paradisi. In C. grandis, the levels of naringin, hesperidin and neohesperidin were 3530.56, 80.00, and 5.26 ${\mu}g/g$, respectively, in the peel, and 59.59, 7.43, and 38.41 ${\mu}g/g$, respectively, in the flesh. The total content was highest in the peel, reaching 0.44% and 0.36% in C. paradisi and C. grandis, respectively, while the flesh contained only 0.025% and 0.011%, respectively. Therefore, the peels of C. paradisi and C. grandis are necessary for the processing and utilization of flavonoids.

The mechanization efficiency using high ability machines such as tractors or combines in a paddy field rice farm is high. Mechanization in harvesting fruits and vegetables is difficult, because they are easy to be damaged. Therefore, Advanced techniques for careful handling fruits and vegetables are necessary in automation and robotization. An apple harvesting robot must have a recognition device to detect the positioning of fruit, manipulators which function like human arms, and hand to take off the fruit. This study is related to the development of a rotatic hand as the first stage in developing the apple harvesting robot. The results are summarized as follows. 1. It was found that a hand that was eccentric in rotatory motion, was better than a hand of semicircular up-and-down motion in harvesting efficiency. 2. The hand was developed to control changes in grasp forces by using tape-type switch sensor which was attatched to fingers' inside. 3. Initial finger positioning was set up to control accurate harvesting by using a tow step fingering position. 4. This study showed the possibility of apple harvesting using the developed robot hand.

The purpose of this study was to develop traditional Korean rice gruels using sericultures. The SOD-like activities of the sericultures were in the order of 39.56%(Paecilomyces tenuipes: PT)>26.91%(Mulberry leaf: ML)>7.68%(Mulberry fruit: MF). The total phenolic acid contents were ML(0.21 mg/ml)>PT(0.16 mg/ml)>MF(0.07 mg/ml). The ML was the highest in all the groups. In the sensory evaluation, for overall quality, the rice gruel with ML was scored higher than the other samples, The brightness(L) of the rice gruels with sericultures were PT>MF>ML, and redness(a) was highest for MF(3.70) and yellowness(b) was highest for PT(17.74). The moisture contents of the gruels were 0.38%, 0.19%, and 0.07%, for ML, MF, and PT, respectively. The ash contents of the gruels were in the order of MF>PT>ML. The crude fat and protein contents were highest in the PT gruels.

Pressure drop, as a function of air flow, was measured for tomatoes and mandarins in bulk with different sizes, stacking arrangements and bed porosities. Pressure drop was also measured on carton vent holes and on a carton of packed fruits . and the cumulative effects of air flow resistance of vent holes and packed fruits in bulk on the air flow resistance of a carton of fruits were evaluated . Equation were presented to describe pressure drop bulk fruits, of an empty carton and of a carton of packed fruits as related to the air velocity , the bed porosity, the fruit diameter and the opening ratio of the vent hole.

노지에서 재배되는 실외작물의 경우 외부 환경에 노출되어 재배되기에 생육 또는 수학시기가 외부 요인에 많은 영향을 받는다. 이러한 외부 요인 중 과일의 당도 및 수확량에 많은 영향을 미치는 요인은 바로 날씨이다. 고온의 날씨 또는 저온의 날씨가 지속되거나 강한 풍속, 적절한 강수가 이루어지지 않을 경우 과일의 당도가 낮아지거나, 흠집이 발생할 수 있어 과일 도매가격에 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 논문에서는 월별 평균 온도, 강우량, 습도, 일사량, 최대풍속 등의 날씨 관련 데이터와 제사 또는 명절에 자주 사용되는 과실류인 배, 단감, 사과, 수박의 도매가격간의 상관관계를 분석을 통해 얻은 결과로 추후 농산물 가격 예측 또는 과일 가격 예측 연구에 기여를 하고자 한다.

사과나 배 등의 과일을 장기저장하거나 유통하는 과정에서 가장 문제가 되는 것은 내부갈변이나 부패 등의 내부결점이다. 내부결점은 사람의 육안이나 현행 중량선별방식으로는 식별이 불가능하며, 일부 보급된 내부품질 측정 장치는 고가의 외산장비가 대부분이다. 본 연구에서는 사과와 배의 갈변이나 부패 등의 내부결점을 비파괴적이면서도 저렴하게 검출할 수 있는 방법을 소개한다. 먼저 내부결점을 검출하기 위한 최적의 가시광 및 근적외선 파장대역을 선정하고 기존의 고가 외제 분광광도계를 대체할 수 있는 광다이오드를 선정하여 시작기를 개발한다. 시작기를 통한 실험에서 제안한 방법의 내부이상 판별 정확도는 90% 이상이었다.

The objective of this study was to investigate the sensory quality characteristics of coffee under various processing and roasting conditions of green beans. Colombia green bean samples were obtained from three processing methods: natural, pulped-natural, and washed methods. The green beans were roasted differently according to Agtron number: light (Agrton #65), medium (Agtron #55), and dark (Agtron #45). Moisture content, density, color value, pH, and total dissolved solid contents (TDS) were measured, and quantitative descriptive analysis (QDA) with 23 sensory attributes was performed for nine coffee samples. Hunter L values were significantly elevated with the degree of processing but reduced with roasting intensity. The pH values of the nine coffee samples were 5.6~6.2 and significantly increased with intensity of roasting. TDS decreased with an increase in processing and increased with roasting intensity. QDA results show that smoky aroma and nutty and chocolate flavor significantly increased while fruit and floral aroma decreased with intensity of processing. The attributes of brownness, oily surface, smoky aroma, bitter and burnt flavor, and greasy and heavy mouthfeel significantly increased while fruity and floral aroma, black tea, sour and umami flavor, pureness, and softness decreased as roasting intensity increased. Principle component analysis showed the overall significant relationships between 23 sensory attributes and nine coffee samples under different processing and roasting conditions.

We have conducted to characterize the physico-chemical change and pharmacological transformation of traditional herbal medicines by means of processing. Processed Gardeniae Fructus was prepared by heating of fruit of Gardenia jasminoides(GF) for $30{\sim}50\;minute$ in the roster designed for herb processing. The contents of drying loss, water extract, diluted ethanol extract, ether extract and geniposide in non-processed GF and processed GF were examined. The contents of drying loss, water extract and geniposide in processed GF showed a decrease as compared with those of non-processed GF, however the contents of dilute ethanol and ether extract showed a increase as compared with those of non-processed GF. The rate of decrease/increase of those index were in proportion to heating time. And, biological activities of methanol extract of non-processed GF and processed GF were investigated. DPPH scavenging effects and inhibitory effect of xanthine oxidate and hemolysis of processed GF exhibited more effective than those of non-processed GF in vitro. Accelerating effect of large intestinal transport and purgative action of non- processed GF were discriminated by processing of GF. Methanol extracts of non-pro- cessed GF and processed GF showed the protective effects against the hepatotoxicity induced by ${\alpha}-naphthylisothiocyanate$ in rats. These results suggested that the transformation of biological activities of GF by means of processing may be due to the physico-chemical change of the constituents in GF by heating.
