복숭아는 다른 과일에 비해 조직이 연약하고 저장성이 매우 낮은 여름철 과일이므로 선별, 포장 및 유통과정에 세심한 주의가 필요하다. 따라서 출하.유통시 선도를 유지시켜 유통기한을 연장시킨다면 경제적 효과가 클 것이다. 국내에서 일반화되어 있는 PE필름 밀봉 저장방식은 과실의 호흡에 의해 산소농도의 감소와 이산화탄소의 증가로 호흡이 억제되고, 이에 따라 노화가 지연됨으로 과실의 저장수명을 증가시키는 방식이며, PE필름내 기체조성에 영향을 미치는 요소는 필름의 두께와 저장온도이고 저장온도가 필름의 두께, 즉 MA효과보다 과실연화에 더 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이는 필름의 두께가 얇을수록 봉지 내 산소농도가 높아져 호흡대사를 촉진하기 때문인 것으로 이해된다. 과육의 연화가 시작되면서 이취를 유발하는 아세트알데히드와 에탄올의 축적이 증가한다고 보고되고 있고 이는 저장고 내 고농도의 이산화탄소 처리 시에 나타난다. 따라서 본 실험에서는 상온 2$0^{\circ}C$에서 복숭아를 0.05mm LDPE필름으로 포장하여 경도, 당도, pH를 측정하였으며 $O_2$(1, 3, 5%), $CO_2$(5, 10, 15%)를 9구분으로 환경기체를 조성하고 중심합성계획법에 의해 반응 표면분석(RSM)을 하였고 갈변도검사 결과와 함께 종합적으로 복숭아저장에 필요한 최적조건을 규명하고자 하였다.

The effect of browning inhibitors on quality properties of fresh-cut strawberries was investigated. Half-cut strawberries were treated with dipping solutions alone and with combinations of 1% ascorbic acid, 1% citric acid, 1% sodium chloride, and 1% magnesium chloride, were packaged with low density polyethylene bags, and were kept for 24 hours at $4^{\circ}C$. The levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the packages of the samples treated with the combined solutions were the highest and the lowest, respectively. The loss of L value and flesh firmness of fresh-cut strawberries was retarded by the combined solutions than by the dipping solutions alone. The soluble solids and pH were not affected by the browning inhibitor. These results suggest that mixture of ascorbic acid, citric acid, sodium chloride, magnesium chloride may prevent browning and softening of fresh-cut strawberries.

The effects of water soaking and gamma irradiation on the storage quality of chestnuts (Castanea crenata) were investigated. Chestnuts weirs soaked in water for 48 hrs at room temperature, irradiated at 0, 0.15, 0.25 and 0.35 kGy of $\^$60/Co gamma ray, and then stored at 0$\^{C}$ and 95$\pm$2% RH for 9 months. Spouting was observed at the end of storage only in chestnuts that were soaked and irradiated at below 0.25 kGy. Rotting was found from the early stage of storage in all pre-treatment conditions, but the rotting rate of soaked chestnuts was higher twice than unsoaked ones after 9 months of storage. Weight loss was lower in soaked than unseated samples regardless of irradiation dose. Loss of flesh firmness was appreciably retarded as irradiation dose increased. Total sugar content decreased slowly in irradiated samples at the later periods of storage. Gamma irradiation resulted in the decrease of vitamin C content immediately after treatment, but retarded its loss rate during storage. Soluble tannin content was not affected by gamma irradiation at scout inhibition doses.

Whole apples were cut with a sharp or dull knife, and whole cabbages and crisp lettuce heads were cut into salad or thin strips with a knife or by hand. The fresh-cut apples, cabbages, and lettuce were packed in low-density polyethylene bags and kept at $4^{\circ}C$, and their qualities were investigated. Browning and softening of the apples that were cut with a sharp knife were more delayed than those of the apples that were cut with a dull knife. The soluble solids and pH of the fresh-cut apples were not affected by the sharpness of the cutting blade. The browning indexes of the fresh-cut cabbages and lettuce were significantly lower in the samples that were cut with a knife than by hand and in the samples that were cut into large pieces. The results suggest that the cutting blade sharpness, cutting tools, and cut types affected the quality of the fresh-cut apples and leafy vegetables, and that the cutting methods which minimized the cutting damage should be used to retard the browning and softening of the produce.

The study was conducted to examine the storage potential of recently developed oriental pears, 'Kamchun' and 'Chuhwang'. The content of soluble solids of 'Kamchun' pears was above 13.2% but the acidity was below 0.082% at three harvest dates. Although skin browning disorder did not occur in 'Kamchun', about 40% of fruits were affected by core breakdown especially when harvested after middle of October. In contrast, flesh browning was also observed in early harvested fruit. Flesh firmness of 'Chuhwang' was higher than that of 'Kamchun' at harvest as well as after storage. The acidity of 'Chuhwang' was constantly higher than that of 'Kamchun'. Severe skin browning (approximately 80%) occurred in 'Chuhwang' pears regardless of harvest dates. Also, more flesh browning disorder was found in fruit harvested early in the season. Further research is required to determine the optimum harvest date of both cultivars and postharvest managements to inhibit the physiological disorders.

The quality changes by storage conditions were examined in order to establish the optimum CA storage conditions of unbagged and bagged 'Fuji' apples. The weight retention rate of apples was higher in CA than air storage, but there was no significant difference among CA conditions. Bagged apples had higher weight than unbagged apples under the same condition. The loss of flesh firmness, titratable acidity and green color of apples was retarded more effectively in 1% $O_2$ than 3% $O_2$ storage, and in $0^{\circ}C$ and 3% $CO_2$ than $2^{\circ}C$ and 1% $CO_2$ with 1% $O_2$ Titratable acidity tended to decrease more rapidly in bagged than unbagged apples. Soluble solid was not affected by storage conditions. Internal browning was developed within 2 months in 1% $O_2$ and 3% $CO_2$ storage, but there was no significant difference according to storage years and bagging treatment. At the sensory evaluation, unbagged apples were rated as higher quality than bagged apples after 8 months storage, and the hardness, juiciness, acidity and overall acceptability of apples stored in 1% $O_2$ were Higher than those in 3% $O_2$ but those of apples stored in 1% $O_2$ were not affected by $CO_2$(1, 3%) and temperature(0,\;$2^{\circ}C)$ differences. Above results suggest that the optimum CA storage condition of 'Fuji' apples is $0^{\circ}C,\;1%\;O_{2}+1%\;CO_2$.

This experiment was conducted to analysis the fruit quality according to training method under low plastic film greenhouse cultivation on sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum cv Special) during summer culture. Training treatments were upright training and inclination training, the fruits were examined and analysed with a month interval from June to November on productivity, fiuit weight, flesh thickness, contents of soluble solids, hardness, shape, and locules. Productivity per month was the highest on June, upright training harvested more than inclination training. Fruit weight of inclination training on June was 232 g which was higher than 26 g of upright training, but upright training was heavier than inclination training after July. Flesh thickness of upright training was thicker than inclination training. Soluble solids content increased with the decrease of temperature, upright training was higher than inclination training. The fruit shape of upright training was not significant according to harvesting date. The number of locules of upright training was $3.27\sim3.34$, and it was not significant according to harvesting date.

To find the effect of packaging materials(LDPE $60{\mu}m$, Ceramic $30{\mu}m$ and $60{\mu}m$) to enhance the shelf-life of de-astringent persimmon, the fruits used were the astringent persimmons of "Cheongdobansi" and astringency was removed in $CO_2$. De-astringent persimmon were stored in MA for 140 days at $5^{\circ}C$. During storage, the concentration of oxygen was decreased to 5.2%, while the concentration of carbon dioxide was increased to 5.2% from 18 days. But the concentration of oxygen and carbon dioxide was maintained at a constant concentration until the end of storage. The rate of weight loss was gradually decreases for the storage time elapsed and has better in ceramic $60{\mu}m$ packaging than other packaging materials. Fruit hardness and color value were well maintained in ceramic $60{\mu}m$ packaging. Tannin content and soluble solid were not significant difference among the packaging conditions. Ethanol and acetaldehyde content were decreased during early period of storage and then increased. As a result of objective analysis, de-astringent persimmon storage in ceramic $60{\mu}m$ was more effective than other storage conditions.

We evaluated the fruit quality and the incidence of physiological disorders in Asian pear (Pyrus pyrifolia Nakai) cultivar 'Jinhwang' treated with 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP, $1.0{\mu}L{\cdot}L^{-1}$) under different temperature conditions to determine appropriate shelf-life period. The postharvest application of 1-MCP in 'Jinhwang' pears showed positive effects at all storage temperature (18, 25 or $30^{\circ}C$) with regard to flesh firmness, marketable fruits (>20N) only attainted with 1-MCP treated fruit after 21 days of shelf-life. A high incidences of physiological disorders and of fruit decay rates were obvious in the fruits distributed at $30^{\circ}C$ and low incidence of physiological disorders including core browning and mealiness were attained at the fruits treated with 1-MCP when we compared with untreated control. The production of ethylene and respiration rates increase coincide with elevated distribution temperature. High respiration rates were obvious in the control fruits, it reached approximately two times higher than the that of 1-MCP treated one regardless of market temperature. These results demonstrated that the application of 1-MCP, especially at high temperature market condition, represented as an effective postharvest technique for newly developed Asian pear 'Jinhwang'.
