To decrease the rot of onion bulb during storage in simple house, later cultivar 'Changnyeungdaego' was dried after harvest on the field, ventilation house and non-ventilation house during 1 to 3days in 1997 and 1998. The maximum air temperature during pre-drying maintained highest in the non-ventilation house and lowest in the field, especially higher than 41.6$^{\circ}C$ at second and third day in 1997 and second day in 1998 on the non-ventilation house. Water content of onion bulbs showed 90.3∼89.5% at harvest and reduced 0.3∼l.8% in 1997, 0.2∼2.6% in 1998 after pre-drying, the rate of reduction was highest on the field and lowest on the ventilation house. Mean of maximum air temperature was 39.2$^{\circ}C$ in 1997 and 37.1$^{\circ}C$ in 1998 and relative humidity was 79.3% and 72.7% in July of 1997 and 1998, 78.2% and 79.1% in August of 1997 and 1998 during storage on the simple house after pre-drying. Rotting ratio of onion bulb showed higher in 1998 than 1997, but rotting appeared earlier 1997 than 1998. Total rotting rate as influenced by place and days of pre-drying was the lowest on the ventilation house, and highest on the non-ventilation. As the days of pre-drying increase, rotting rate of onion bulbs were lower. As above results, 1 or 2days of pre-drying on the ventilation house and 2 or 3days of pre-drying on the field were recommended to decrease the rotting onion bulb during storage.

Soibirhym(Portulace oleracea) was extracted by methanol and its antimicrobial activities against food spoilage or foodborne disease microorganisms were investigated by the paper disc method. The microorganisms used in this experiment included 5 species of bacteria(Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella typhimurium, Klebsiella Pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus) and 3 species of fungi(Fusarium solani, Aspergillus flavius, Penicillium citreonigrum). Soibirhym showed high antimicrobial activites against P. citreonigrum, P. aeruginosa and K. pneumoniae. Minimum inhibitory concentrations(MICs) on S. aureus, P. citreonigrum and K. pneumoniae were 200, 200 and 250 mg/㎖, respectively. In the methanol extracts from Soibirhym, 147 kinds of compound were separated by GC/MS. The extraction yields of phenolics, furans, alcohols, acids and esters, ketones, aldehydes, and miscellaneous compounds were 7.43%, 6.13%, 2.20%, 41.06%, 9.21%, 0.15% and 1.08%, respectively. Some antimicrobial compounds such as 2,3-dihydro-benzofuran, 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-benzoic acid, 4-hydroxy benzeneethanol were detected in the methanol extract.

The research was conducted to measure the effect of pressure cooling of 'Fuji' apple during of 24 weeks. Weight loss in pressure cooling was lower than control at 24th week, and firmness in pressure cooling was higher than control. Titratable acidity in control and pressure cooling was 0.0823% 0.1103% in 24 weeks, respectively. Soluble solid content (SSC) in pressure cooling were higher than control. Decayed rate in control and pressure cooling was 46.4% 34.5% in 24 weeks, respectively. Total ascorbic acid contents were decreased in control and pressure cooling during 24 weeks. Therefore, it could be suggested that pressure cooling is more effective than control in storage of 'Fuji' apple.

In order to develop a natural food preservative, freeze dried plantain (Plantago asiatica L.) was extracted with several solvents, and the antimicrobial activity was investigated. The methanol extract exhibited antimicrobial activites against five strains of bacteria such as Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria monocytogenes, and Vibrio parahaemolyticus. The methanol extract at the concentration of 1.0 mg/ml completely inhibited the growth of B. subtilis and V. parahaemolyticus. Antimicrobial activity of the ethylacetate fraction from the methanol extract was the strongest compared with those of other solvent fractions such as n-hexane, chloroform, n-butanol and water. The ethylacetate fraction showed the inhibitory effect at the concentration of 0.5 mg/disc on the growth of B. subtilis and V. parahaemolyticus.

Antimicrobial activity of Mokdan bark (Paeonia suffruticosa $A_{NDR}$) was investigated. Methanol extract of dried Mokdan was fractionated to hexane, chloroform, ethylacetate, butanol and aqueous fraction. Ethylacetate fraction among these fractions showed the highest inhibitory effect on the microorganisms such as L. monocytogenes, and E. coli at 500 $\mu\textrm{g}$/disc. Ethylacetate fraction was further fractionated into 3 fractions by silica gel column and thin layer chromatography (TLC). The results showed that ethylacetate fractions No. 1 and 2 had the highest antimicrobial activity. They were mixed again, reseparated, and 3 fractions were obtained. Among them, No. 1 had the highest inhibitory effect on the microorganisms, No. 1 fraction was identified as isobutyl isopentanoate by HPLC, and GC-MS.

This study was to reveal consumer attitudes about open shelf-life dating method of the packaged foods. Consumers consider that open shelf-life dating to the packaged foods gives good information to choose the products to buy, but also confusion with unclear open shelf-life dating marked on the package. For the perishable foods, consumers tended to get more attention to the open shelf-life dates. Consumers prefer the dating method of edible periods better than sellable periods to the packaged foods. The female consumers consider that open shelf-life dating is more important to buy the packaged foods than male consumers do.

The mixture of botanical antimicrobial agent-citurs product and ginseng extract mixture(BAACG) was applied to garlic stalk or pork cooked in soysauce to extend their selflife. BAACG showed a remarkable antimicrobial activity against a wide spectrum of food-borne infection microorganisms and thermal and pH stability. In comparison with scanning electron microscopic photos of microbial cells not-treated and treated with BAACG the physiological cytomembrane function of BAACG-treated microorganisms was destroyed and the dead cell numbers was increased. The quality of garlic stalk or pork cooked in soysauce was controlled by the addition of BAACG in their raw materials. BAACG-treated garlic stalk or pork cookeries showed considerably to decrease the numbers of total cell count and expressed no odor and no sticky state appeared in the control. BAACG was expected to be a preservative agent which could be applied to raw or processed food stuffs in the view of food safety.
