Abstract
For development of long-term storage method of sweet-persimmons using polyethylene film bags, basic experiment was conducted with 30 boxes of sweet-persimmons in 1973 and the same experiment was extended for industrial application with 2,500 boxes of the persimmons in the cold storage of Jinyoung Sweet-persimmon Association in 1974. Investigation was made on change of the quality by storage period. At the same time, persimmons put in the cold storage test were shipped to market at different time in order to monitor consumer response and commercial feasibility. The followings are conclusion obtained from the result of this experiment. 1. Storage of sweet-persimmon, Buyu, produced in Jinyoung, Kimhae was possible for 1 month at $2^{\circ}C{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ cold storage. This storage period was extended to 4 months until the end of February in case that the fruits were hermetically sealed in P.E. film bags of 0.08 to 0.1 mm thickness. 2. During the storage period of sweet-persimmons packed in the film bags, the loss of weight due to evaporation was effectively prevented with use of the film of bag thicker than 0.04 mm. 3. The storage ability of 3-5 persimmons per small bag was somewhat superior to that of many persimmons packed in the large box of 15kg capacity. 4. The thicker the film of bags, the more $CO_2$ gas was accumulated inside, however, from 1 month after beginning of the storage the rate of $CO_2$ accumulation became very low maintaining the stabilized level of 5-6% at the plot of 0.06-0.08mm thick bags. 5. While the persimmons were in storage, decreased was the content of total sugars, total acids, and vitamin C, of which the phenomenon was remarkable especially with the fruits of non-packed plot. 6. The sweet-persimmons in the film bags subjected to cold storage when shipped to market in their intact condition were more beneficial than when they were shipped out in unpacked condition. The intact fruits packed in the P.E. film bags were able to keep their commercial value for 10days in the outdoor situation. 7. The sweet-persimmons that were packed in the film bags and put in the cold storage had maintained promissing marketability and the economic feasibility was acknowledged when the experimental practice was applied to industrial scale.
polyethylene필립포장(包裝)에 의(依)한 단감의 장기냉장법(長期冷藏法) 개발(開發)을 위하여 1973년도(年度)에는 30상자(箱子)의 단감을 공시(共試)하여 기초연구시험(基礎硏究試驗)을 실시(實施)하고 하여 1974년도(年度)에는 진영(進永)단감협동조합(協同組合)의 50평(平)짜리 냉장고(冷藏庫)에 2,500상자(箱子)의 경제규모(經濟規模)의 실용화(實用化) 시험(試驗)을 실시(實施)하여 저장기간별(貯藏期間別)로 품질변화(品質變化) 상태(狀態)를 조사(調査)하는 동시(同時) 단계적(段階的)으로 저장(貯藏)단감을 출하(出荷)하여 시판(市販)하므로서 소비자(消費者)의 반응(反應)과 단감저장(貯藏)의 기업성(企業性)을 검토(檢討)하여 다음과 같은 결론(結論)을 얻었다. (1) 김해진영산(金海進永産) 단감 부유(富有)는 $2^{\circ}C{\pm}1^{\circ}C$에서 냉장(冷臧)하면 1개월간(個月間)을 저장(貯藏)이 가능(可能)하였고 PE필림으로 밀봉포장(密封包裝)했을때는 저장기간(貯藏期間)을 크게 연장(延長)할 수 있었으며 이때 포장(包裝) PE필림의 두께가 0.08mm와 0.1mm일때는 다음해 2월말일(月末日)까지 약(約) 4개월간(個月間)을 안전(安全)하게 저장(貯藏)할 수 있었다. (2) PE필림 밀봉포장(密封包裝)으로 단감의 저장중(貯藏中) 증산(蒸散)에 의(依)한 중량감소(重量減少)를 크게 억제(抑制)할 수 있었으며 필림두께가 0.04mm이상(以上)일때 그 효과(效果)가 뚜렷하게 나타났다. (3) 과실(果實)을 필림대(袋)속에 $3{\sim}5$개씩 넣어 소포장(小包裝)는 것이 한상자분(箱子分)(15kg)을 큰 필림포대(包袋)에 넣어 밀봉포장(密封包裝)한 것에 비(比)하여 저장성(貯藏性)이 다소(多少)좋았다. (4) 필림포장내(包裝內)의 $CO_2$축적량(畜積量)은 필림의 두께가 두꺼울수록 증가(增加)하나 저장(貯藏) 1개월후(個月後)부터는 극(極)히 완만(緩慢)한 증가(增加)를 보였으며 0.06mm와 0.08mm포장구(包裝區)에서는 대체(大體)로 $5{\sim}6%$선(線)을 유지(維持)하였다. (5) 단감은 저장중(貯藏中) 전당(全糖), 총산(總酸) 및 Vitamin C는 다같이 감소(減少)하였으며 그중(中) 특(特)히 무포장구(無包裝區)의 과실(果實)에서 현저(顯著)하였다. (6) PE필림 밀봉포장(密封包裝) 냉장(冷藏)단감은 출고후(出庫後) 필림포장(包裝)한 그대로 유통(流通)시키는 것이 포장(包裝)을 제거(除去)한 것보다 품위유지(品位維持)에 유리(有利)하였으며 외기상온(外氣常溫)에서 10일간(日間)은 무난(無難)하게 상품적(商品的) 가치(價値)를 보지(保持)할 수 있었다. (7) 단감의 필림포장냉장(包裝冷藏)은 시장성(市場性)이 좋고 경제적규모(經濟的規模)로 냉장(冷藏)했을때 제반경비(諸般經費)를 공제(控除)하고도 기업성(企業性)이 인정(認定)되었다.
