Abstract

Improvement of hygienic quality of powdered raw grains and vegetables by gamma irradiation was investigated. Five products of powdered raw grains and vegetables were collected in a local market and analysed. The total viable cell counts of Bacillus were 10$^4$~10$^{7}$ cfu/g, filamentous fungi l0$^2$~10$^3$cfu/g, coliform 10$^1$~10$^4$cfu/g, enteric bacteria on SS agar plate 10$^1$~10$^3$cfu/g. Coliform, enteric bacteria on SS agar plate and filamentous fungi were eliminated by 3 kGy of gamma irradiation. The D values of coliform, enteric bacteria on SS agar plate, Bacillus, and filamentous fungi were 0.68~0.80 kGy, 0.59~0.74 kGy, 1.84~2.18 kGy and 0.36~0.57 kGy, respectively. It was considered that optimal irradiation dose for radappertization was about 25 kGy, while 3~5 kGy of gamma irradiation was effective for radicidation.

유통 생씩 5종의 수분 함량 4.22~7.18%의 범위였으며 수분활성은 0.15~0.26의 분포를 보여 미생물에 의한 변패보다는 낮은 수분활성에서도 생존해 있는 병원성 미생물의 제거가 생식의 중요한 품질관리 요소일 것으로 판단된다. 생식의 미생물분포는 Bacillus group $10^4$~$10^{7}$ cfu/g, 사상균류 $10^2$~$10^3$cfu/g, coliform group $10^1$~ $10^4$cfu/g, SS agar plate 분리 enteric bacteria group $10^1$~$10^3$cfu/g의 수준으로 특히 병원성 미생물의 오염가능성이 컸다. 감마선 조사 결과 coliform group, SS agar plate 분리 enteric bacteria group, 그리고 사상균류는 3 kGy의 조사선량에서 완전살균 수준으로 제거되었다. 생식 분포 미생물의 D값은 coliform group은 0.68~0.80 kGy, SS agar plate 분리 enteric bacteria group은 0.59~0.74 kGy, Bacillus group은 1.84~2.18 kGy, 사상균류는 0.36~0.57 kGy의 범위를 나타내었다. 생식제품의 위생화를 목적으로 할 경우 감마선조사 선량은 생식제품에 분포하는 coliform group과 SS agar plate 분리 enteric bacteria group 미생물의 사멸기준인 3~5 kGy의 수준으로 설정하는 것이 바람직할 것으로 사료된다.
