초록

현재(現在) 식품공업(食品工業)에 널리 이용(利用)되고 있는 포장재료(包裝材料)를 가지고 건조(乾燥)통고추와 고추분말(紛末)을 포장(包裝)하여 여러 조건(條件)에 저장(貯藏)하면서 포장재료(包裝材料)와 시료(試料)의 물리적(物理的) 및 화학적(化學的) 변화(變化)에 관(關)하여 연구검토(硏究檢討) 한바 다음과 같은 결과(結果)를 얻었다. 고추의 저장조건중(貯藏條件中), 상대습도(相對濕度) 55% 이상(以上)에서는 수분흡수(水分吸收)가 현저(顯著)하게 상승(上昇)하였으며, 10%에서는 곰장이가 발생(發生)하였는데 이때의 평형수분(平衡水分) 함량(含量)은 15%로써 고추의 저장수분(貯藏水分) 함량(含量)의 임계점(臨界點)에 도달(到達)하였다. 시료(試料)의 수분함량(水分含量)을 달리하여 저장(貯藏)하였을 때 색소(色素) Capsanthin함량(含量)은 저장온도(貯藏溫度)가 높을수록, 수분함량(水分含量)이 많아질수록 감소(減少)하였으며, 천일하(天日下)에 방치(放置)할때도 Capsanthin함량(含量)은 크게 변화(變化)하였다. 여러 포장재료중(包裝材料中) Aluminium foil packet이 장기저장시(長期貯藏時) 고추 성분(成分)의 변화(變化)를 줄이는데 가장 효과적(效果的)이였으며 단기저장시(短期貯藏時)에는 착색(着色) Polyethylene, L.D.P.E., Saran/cello, /Saran/P.E., 순서(順序)였다.

Studies have been carried out to design a suitable consumer size package from flexible packaging material to hold 100 grams of Chilli powder and 250 grams of whole chilli which are moisture and color sensitive. 1. Sorption characteristics of the chilli powder has revealed that moisture sorption is rapid above 55 per cent R.H., and the product is fairly hygroscopic. Further, an equilibrium moisture content of about 15 per cent at 70 per cent R.H., appears to be critical from the point of microbial spoilage of chilli powder. 2. Studies on the colour (Capsanthin) changes of chilli powder equilibriated to different moisture content, have revealed that colour changes during storage is greatly influenced by the moisture content and temperature decreases the capsanthin content of chilli during storage. 3. From the studies, it can be inferred that the sunlight exhibits pronounced effect in bleaching of colour and brings about maximum discolouration of the red pigment in chilli. 4. From the packaging and storage studies of chilli powder in different flexible films, it can be concluded that for long-term storage, the aluminium foil laminate is unique in offering maximum protection from various physico-chemical changes. For short-term storage and for fairly good moisture and colour protection, amber or black polyethylene, high-density polyethylene and Saran/Cello/Saran poly laminate pouches appear to be suitable alternatives.
