Potato slices were dipped in calcium choreide ar chitosan solutions or and preheated in each of these solutions. In order to prevent the quality deterioration while they were refrigerated for 4 weeks at 5$^{\circ}C$ Changes in degree of browning and other quality factors were determined while they were refrigerated for 4 weeks at 5$^{\circ}C$ During refrigeration, L values were decreased and optical density (A420) were increased. But L values were increased and A420 were decreased by dipping or preheating. The contents of vitamin C were decreased. however, the loss of vitmin C were the lowest in calcium chloride treaed potato slices(CaPS). And there were no combined effects of dipping and preheating during refrigeration. However, protein content of CaPS increased but that of other treated potato slices were decreased compared to that of control. With respect to changes in other physicochemical qualit, pH increased in chitosan treated potato slices(ChPS) and loss of weight was the lowest in combined with preheating. From these results, it was considered that the shelf-life of potato slices could be increased by dipping or-and preheating.

As the important pathogens of potato storage diseases, Fusarium solani, F. reseum, F. oxysporum, and Erwinia carotovora were isolated from rot potato tubers. The cut potato pieces of the three cultivars, Epicure, Irish Cobbler, and Superior were held in moist chambers of $4^{\circ},\;14^{\circ},\;24^{\circ},\;and\; 34^{\circ}C$ and 7 days and then rated for suberin and periderm development. The cut potato pieces thus treated were inoculated with the four organisms and held at $24^{\circ}C$ for 9 days and then rated for decay. As the temperature and period of holding increased, more suberin and periderm were developed with decrease in decay. Although there were differences in pathogenicity of the organisms, varietal reaction and protective barrier development, the effect of temperature and holding period had greater importance for decay prevention. At $4^{\circ}C$ within 7 days of holding period the potato pieces developed no protective barrier with severe decay. It is required to avoid placing cut potatoes directly in cold storage of the low temperature. At $34^{\circ}C$ the pieces developed abundant protective barriers even though decay occurred in somecases. Practically no decay was found with moderate protective barrier development after 3 days and 5 days at $24^{\circ}C\;and\;14^{\circ}C$, respectively. Since the potato pieces decayed occasionally during the holding period when they were held at the higher temperature, the holding at $14^{\circ}C$ for longer than 5 days is considered to be feasible for prevention of storage rots.

Potato cv. 'Haryeong' was bred with high solids, resistance to late blight and good culinary quality. It has been registered as new potato variety in 2005. Tuber necrosis symptoms such as severe superficial necrosis, raised surface lesions and ringed necrotic areas were found in tubers of 'Haryeong' during storage of seed potatoes in 2010. Potato virus Y (PVY) was detected from these symptomatic tubers by the analysis of RT-PCR using a primer set specific to coat protein gene of PVY. The nucleotide sequence of RT-PCR product ($PVY^{Hkr}$) was determined and compared to those of other strains, such as $PVY^{Kor}$, $PVY^N$, $PVY^{NTN}$, $PVY^O$, and $PVY^C$ registered in GeneBank. The result showed that $PVY^{Hkr}$ was exactly the same as $PVY^{Kor}$, Korean isolate reported in 2005, except two nucleotides. To verify the PVY was responsible for the tuber necrosis symptoms shown in the tubers of 'Haryeong', a bioassay was done using two viruses (PVY and Potato leafroll virus) and five potato cultivars ('Haryeong', 'Superior', 'Atlantic', 'Dejima', and 'Chubaek'). As expected, the same necrosis symptom appeared in tubers of 'Haryeong' infected with PVY only during the storage period.

Present work was conducted to investigate the combined effects of gamma-radiation and chemical treatment on the inhibition of sprouting and decay of potato tubers. Irish Cobbler, Apollo and Shimabara potato tubers were immersed in 1000, 2000 and 3000 ppm solution of salicylic acid for 2 minutes, and then irradiated at doses of 5, 10, and 15 krad using an indoor gamma room of approximately 10,000 Ci of $^{60}Co$. Treated tubers were stored for 8 months at room temperature. The results of this work are summarized as follows: 1. Moisture content of irradiated potato tubers was changed less than the control, and decreased gradually along with an extended storage period. Ascorbic acid content was remarkably decreased by gamma-radiation and an extended storage period. 2. Reducing sugar content of irradiated potato tubers tended to increase greatly compared with unirradiated potato tubers, however, starch content of irradiated potato tubers decreased compared with the control. Reducing sugar and starch content of all groups also decreased gradually along with an extended storage period. 3. The storageability of Irish Cobbler variety was best among three varieties and Shimabara variety was worst among them when gamma-radiation is treated singly or in combination with the chemical. Sprouting of potato tubers was more suppressed in combination treatment than single treatment. 4. Decay of potato tubers was more reduced in combination treatment than single treatment. Chemical treatment or gamma-radiation followed by chemical treatment had no influence on decay or spronting of potato tubers. 5. Weight loss of potato tubers was considerably increased as storage period became extended. Shrinkage was, more serious in Shimabara than in rish Cobbler.

We evaluated the quality characteristics of fresh-cut produce (potato, sweet potato, carrot, radish, zucchini, cucumber, and green bell pepper) washed with sodium hypochlorite, which were vacuum packaged, and stored at 4 and 10$^{\circ}C$. The L-values of the fresh-cut potato and sweet potato decreased during storage. Lower PPO activities of potato and sweet potato were observed at 4$^{\circ}C$ than those at 10$^{\circ}C$ and development of potato and sweet potato browning was delayed at 4$^{\circ}C$. Total aerobic count and coliform increased continuously at 10$^{\circ}C$ during storage. Diced zucchini and shredded sweet potato had the greatest reduction in hardness among the fresh-cut produce during storage. Differences in the rate of quality change were observed according to the kinds and cut types of produce. Thus, a quality maintenance period for each type of fresh-cut produce must be determined, which will lead to the safe use of fresh cut produce in foodservice establishments.

Effect of water activity $(0.32{\sim}0.89)$ on the physicochemical properties of sweet potato starch during the storage for 5, 15 and 30 days at $40^{\circ}C$ was investigated. Shapes and sizes of starch granules were not changed. X-ray diffraction patterns of the starches appeared equally Ca-crystal structure. Sorption isotherm with storage day was sigmoidal. A slight loss of iodine affinity, increase in water binding capacity, and decrease in swelling power at $80^{\circ}C$ occurred as water activities increased. Viscosity pattern under Brabender Amylogram was not significantly changed with water activity, but initial pasting temperature decreased as water activity increased. The viscosity at $50^{\circ}C$, consistency and setback were increased with increasing storage day and water activity.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of hydrated potato starch on the quality of low-fat ttoekgalbi (Korean traditional patty) packaged in modified atmosphere conditions during storage. The ttoekgalbi was prepared from 53.2% lean beef, 13.9% lean pork, 9.3% pork fat, and 23.6% other ingredients. Two low-fat ttoekgalbi treatments were prepared by substituting pork fat with hydrated potato starch; either by 50% fat replacement (50% FR) or 100% fat replacement (100% FR). Both 50% and 100% FR increased the moisture, crude protein, and decreased fat content, cooking loss, and hardness. For MAP studies, 200 g of ttoekgalbi were placed on the tray and filled with gas composed of 70% $O_2$: 30% $CO_2$ (70% $O_2$-MAP) and 30% $CO_2$: 70% $N_2$ (70% $N_2$-MAP), and were stored at $5^{\circ}C$ for 12 d. During the storage time, both 50% and 100% FR showed higher protein deterioration, while no differences were found in CIE $a^*$, CIE $L^*$, lipid oxidation, and bacterial counts in comparison to control. The ttoekgalbi with 70% $O_2$-MAP was more red, lighter in color, and showed higher TBARS values compared with 70% $N_2$-MAP. The meat with 70% $N_2$-MAP showed lower aerobic bacterial counts in control than those with 70% $O_2$-MAP. The lower anaerobic bacterial counts were observed only in 50% FR and 100% FR packed with 70% $N_2$-MAP in comparison with 70% $O_2$-MAP. In conclusion, the fat replacement with hydrated potato starch showed no negative effects on the quality of low fat ttoekgalbi during storage and 70% $N_2$-MAP was better than 70% $O_2$-MAP for low-fat ttoekgalbi packaging.

To obtain the basic information for late-cultivation of sweet potato [Ipomoea hatalas (L.) Lam. cv. 'Jinhongmi'], vine growth and storage root yield were investigated in variously cutting sizes (10, 20, and 30 cm) and planting depths (1~4 nodes in 30 cm vine) using black-film vinyl mulching cultivation ($75{\times}25\;cm$ planting density, June 20). At 30 days after planting, main vine length, number of node, and vine fresh weight were significantly affected by the cutting length, and these were significantly different 10 and 30 cm at 120 days. The vine elongation affected by planting depths showed the best growth in 2-nodes planting depth and the lowest growth in 4-nodes planting depth at 30 days, but the vine growth was not significantly different among planting depths at 120 days. Number of storage root per plant, weight of storage root per plant, mean weight of storage root and yield of storage root were increased in longer cutting length, and those in 10 cm cutting length were significantly reduced compared to the 20 and 30 cm cutting length. Number of storage root per plant in the deeper planting was much increased, but mean weight of storage root was much decreased. Yield of storage root per 10a was highest in 3-nodes planting depth. Therefore, planting methods by cutting length over 20 cm and planting depth of 2~3 nodes in late-cultivation of sweet potato will be more efficient to improve the vine growth and storage root yield.

The purpose of this study is to develop $Sulgidduk$ which meets the consumers' taste by using cooked purple sweet potato. The samples of $Sulgidduk$ were prepared with different ratios of cooked purple sweet potato(0, 10, 20, 30, 40%) and analyzed for moisture content, Hunter's color value and texture characteristics and sensory evaluation. The moisture contents of the samples ranged 40.83% to 44.91% The L-value and b-value decreased, while a-value increased, with increasing amounts of cooked purple sweet potato. In the mechanical evaluation of physical properties, hardness, adhesiveness, springiness, gumminess and cohesiveness showed no significant difference with the increasing amount of cooked purple sweet potato. However, chewiness decreased significantly with the increasing amount of cooked purple sweet potato. Based on the quantitative descriptive sensory evaluations on $Sulgidduk$ samples, purple color, sweet potato flavor and taste, sweetness, and moistness significantly increased, while hardness decreased significantly with the increasing amount of cooked purple sweet potato. $Sulgidduk$ added 40% cooked purple sweet potato showed the highest in overall acceptability and the slowest hardening in the textural changes during storage.

In this study, potato kimchi was prepared by applying heat to raw potatoes, and then the physico-chemical properties and anti-cancer effects of the kimchi were analyzed. The texture results indicated the potato kimchi had very good hardness and springiness attributes. During th late storage period, total vitamin C content of the kimchi slowly increased. In addition, the potato kimchi had non-volatile organic acid changes that promoted early aging; however, after the complete aging period, it was comparatively similar to other types of kimchi. Using the methanol extracts of various kimchi samples, the potato kimchi(solid 100%) showed the highest anti-carcinogenic effects in terms of anti-tumor activity in tumor bearing Balb/c mice with sarcoma-180 cells. In addition, the effects of the methanol extracts on hepatic glutathione S-transferase content were $289.76\;{\mu}mol/mg$ protein/min, $250.97\;{\mu}mol/mg$ protein/min, $251.20\;{\mu}mol/mg$ protein/min, $219.53\;{\mu}mol/mg$ protein/min, $183.79\;{\mu}mol/mg$ protein/min, for control kimchi, mul kimchi, and two potato kimchis [(solid 100%) and(solid 60%+kimchi juice 40%)], respectively. The in vivo anti-cancer effects of the potato kimchi were investigated using AGS human gastric adenocarcionoma cells and HT-29 human colon adenocarcionoma cells. Overall, an MTT assay revealed that the methanol extract of the potato kimchi showed the highest anti-carcinogenic effects.
