A respiration rate analysed by enzyme kinetics-based respiration model and gas permeability data of LDPE film were applied to design the optical modified atmosphere (MA) packaging condition of persimmon (Diospyros kaki cv. Fuyu) fruits. The fruit quality rapidly decreases due to physiology disorder such as softening and peel blackening. $O_2$ permeance ($Q_{O2}$ in $ml{\cdot}hr^{-1}{\cdot}atm^{-1}{\cdot}m^{-2}$) and $CO_2$ performance ($Q_{CO2}$ in $ml{\cdot}hr^{-1}{\cdot}atm^{-1}{\cdot}m^{-2}$) of low density polyethylene (LDPE) film samples were measured at $0^{\circ}C$ and described as function of thickness (L in ${\mu}m$) as $Q_{O2}=(2540{\times}1/L)-16$, and $Q_{CO2}=(13742{\times}1/L)-70$, respectively. MA package containing single persimmon fruit of 225g was designed and tested experimentally at $0^{\circ}C$ by using LDPE films. Package atmospheres predicted from the relationship of $O_2$, $CO_2$ and $N_2$ balances on the packages was in good agreement with those obtained experimentally. Physiology disorder occurrence was the lowest at 52 ${\mu}m$ package that attained optimum gas condition ($O_2$ 2.8% and $CO_2$ 5.4%). The computer simulation was found to be effective to help to design the optimum MA packaging condition of individual persimmon fruit.

To obtain the basic data for commercial 10% salted egg yolk for mayonnaise preparation, 3 types of egg yolks [pasteurized egg yolk (Yolk A)-not salted, pasteurized before salting (Yolk B)-salted, and pasteurized after salting (Yolk C)-salted] were prepared, and the changes in quality characteristics of these egg yolks with frozen storage were tested. The results obtained were as follows; Yolk A gelatinized during frozen storage, thus could not used for mayonnaise preparation. The viscosity of the egg yolk increased $3{\sim}5$ times after salting. Viscosity of the salted egg yolk increased with frozen storage time. Viscosity of Yolk B was higher at $-20^{\circ}C$ than $-15^{\circ}C$. Viscosity of Yolk C, however, was higher at $-15^{\circ}C$ than $-20^{\circ}C$. Frozen storage of pasteurized salted egg yolk showed some effects on the emulsification capacity. The effect, however, was smaller than that of unpasteurized salted egg yolk. Microbes of salted egg yolk were decreased with frozen storage, but there was no difference between Yolk B and Yolk C. It was suggested that commercially pasteurized 10% salted egg yolk for mayonnaise preparation can be successfully stored for 12 months at the temperature of $-15{\sim}-20^{\circ}C$.

2차원 탄소나노재료인 그래핀은 본연의 우수한 물성으로 인하여 전자소자, 에너지 저장매체, 유연성 전도막 등 다양한 분야로의 응용가능성이 제기되었다. 그러나 실제적인 응용을 위해서는 그래핀의 구조적인 결함을 최소화하며, 특성을 자유로이 제어하거나 향상시키는 공정의 개발이 필요하다. 일반적으로 화학적 도핑은 그래핀의 전기적 특성을 제어하는 효율적인 방법으로 알려져 있다. 화학적 도핑의 방법으로는 그래핀을 특정 가스 분위기에서 고온 열처리하거나 활성종들이 존재하는 플라즈마에 노출시킴으로써, 그래핀을 구성하는 탄소원자를 이종원자로 치환하거나 표면에 흡착시켜 기능화 된 그래핀을 얻는 방법 등이 제시되었다. 특히 플라즈마를 이용한 도핑방법은 저온에서 단시간의 처리로 효율적인 도핑이 가능하고, 인가전력, 처리시간 등의 플라즈마 변수를 변경하여 도핑정도를 수월하게 제어할 수 있다는 장점을 가지고 있다. 그러나 플라즈마 내에 존재하는 극성을 띄는 다양한 활성종들로 인하여 그래핀에 구조적인 결함을 형성하여 오히려 특성이 저하될 수 있어 이를 고려한 플라즈마 공정조건의 설정이 필수적이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 플라즈마에 노출된 그래핀의 Raman 특성을 고찰함으로써 화학적 도핑과 구조적인 결함의 경계를 확립하고 구조결함의 형성을 최소화한 효율적인 도핑조건을 도출하였다. 고품질 그래핀은 물리적 박리법을 이용하여 300 nm 두께의 실리콘 산화막이 존재하는 실리콘 웨이퍼 위에 제작하였으며, 평행 평판형 직류 플라즈마 장치를 이용하여 전극의 위치, 인가전력, 처리시간을 변수로 암모니아(NH3) 플라즈마를 방전하여 그래핀의 Raman 특성변화를 관찰하였다. 그래핀의 구조적 결함 및 도핑은 라만 스펙트럼의 D, G, D', 2D밴드의 강도비와 G밴드의 위치와 반치폭(Full width at half maximum; FWHM)의 변화를 통해 확인하였다. 그 결과, 인가전력과 처리시간이 증가함에 따라 그래핀의 도핑레벨이 증가되고, 이후에는 도핑효과가 없어지고 결함의 정도가 상승하는 천이구역이 존재하며, 이를 넘어서는 너무 높은 인가적력의 처리는 그래핀에 결함을 형성하여 구조적인 붕괴를 야기함을 확인하였다.

Many merchants have dealed in the salted shrimps(Saewoo -Jet) in Kwangcheon. They made the soil cave at headland on beach, so aged Saewoo-Jet in casks in soil cave with fitting temperature($13\~15^{circ}C$ and humidity($85\%$). Kwangcheon where it is gathering and scattering around the country have gained fame in its tastes and the freshness in Korea. Yu Myoun Won made the fresh starts Put it in this cave. Since 1949, the soil cave is used all the time. Ultimately this was getting warehouse business put the salted shimps since 1960. Today, this business is going down, and this warehouse is used for only the aged Period. As the alternative plan, many merchants focus on various fastivals, Saewoo-Jet special area plan, vessel improvement etc, and makes a wish to good sales. Folkway are Guldeagum-Je that they has done before digging the cave, Anteak(sods that care the family dwell in the house) and the October sacrifice have done on Gasin-Je in the soil cave. This cave has used as the refrigator when Saewoo-Jet come in the cave.

The rocket grade hydrogen peroxide has been widely used as a monopropellant in propulsion systems. In the present paper, we described an experimental study of a catalytic reactor that employs two stage catalyst beds to enhance the low temperature performance of the reactor. $K_2MnO_4$ was chosen as the catalyst for the initial stage of the reactor bed for its superior behavior in the low temperature regime. LSC was used for the catalyst of the second stage of the reactor. The gas generator with combined catalyst beds was built and tested to exhibit high decomposition efficiency over 90% and successful cold-start characteristics.

Current status on consumption and packaging of sweet persimmons in USA was surveyed by visiting the market, and three sea shipments were conducted as model export trial from Korean to USA with measurement in ship container temperature and fruit quality. Strategy to promote the export of Korean persimmons was derived. There have been gradual decrease in the price of persimmons due to their increases production, but there seems potential growth in consumption of the fruits from Asian, Hispanic and American people. Compared to the fruits from other countries, Korean persimmons are desired to have higher soluble solid content with stronger red color, but too large sizes are not favored in American market. There has often been temperature fluctuation in shipment container during the sea transport to USA, resulting in surface blackening, skin black spotting and flesh softening. Plastic bag packages with inappropriate unitizing crimping were found to sometimes build up unproper modified atmosphere (high $O_2$ and low $CO_2$) giving high rate of physiological injury.

In order to secure microbiological safety and quality of commercial vegetable sprouts, buckwheat seeds and sprouts were investigated for their microbiological flora and for the effect of chlorine treatment on quality. Microbiological analyses showed that major inherent bacteria including Enterobacter, Sphingomonas, and Klebsiella were found in commercial buckwheat sprouts with a population size ranging from $10^5$ to $10^7$ CFU/g. In addition, buckwheat seeds had a similar microbial flora to sprouts. Foodborne pathogenic bacteria such as Escherichia coli O157:H7, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella Typhimurium, and Listeria monocytogenes were not detected in the sprout or in the seed samples. Chlorine treatment with 50-150 ppm sodium hypochlorite noticeably reduced viable bacteria cell counts of the sprouts by about 1 log. However, no significant difference was observed among the different chlorine concentrations. After storage for 7 days at $5^{\circ}C$, the sprouts treated with 100-150 ppm chlorine showed higher sensory scores in visual quality than the others (p<0.05). The results indicated that proper pretreatment, such as dipping in chlorinated water, could confer a beneficial effect on the microbiological safety and visual quality of buckwheat sprouts.

Garlic (Allium sativum)is a major crop in most Asian countries, and its consumption in Asia-Pacific countries exceeds 90% of the global consumption. It contains beneficial ingredients and numerous essential nutrients, such as manganese, vitamin B6, and vitamin B1. Garlic demand is rising not only in Asian countries but also around the world. Particularly, garlic demand has been steadily increasing in European countries, such as Spain, France, Italy, and the American continent. In South Korea, 331,671 tons and 387,671 tons of garlic was produced in 2018 and 2019, respectively, making the country the fifth ranking garlic producer in the world, and the production has been increasing every year. In this study, the study on temperature distribution in cold storage of Korean garlic in folding wire mesh pallet container using CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) analysis was performed and Computations were based a commercial simulation software (ANSYS Workbenh Ver. 18.0). Considering the respiration heat of garlic, the decreasing rate of temperature in the area in contact with the cold air was fast due to the inflow of cold air inside, while the decreasing rate of temperature in the center of the pallet was very low. In order to maintain a uniform temperature distribution inside the agricultural product storage pallet in a low-temperature warehouse, it is considered desirable to install an air passageway to allow low-temperature air to flow into the wire mesh pallet.

To investigate the fermentation characteristics of Kimchi which was made at $12{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ and stored at $17{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ and $4{\pm}1^{\circ}C$, pH, total acid, total microbes, lactic acid bacteria cell count, dissolved $CO_2$content, reducing sugars and temperature at the center of Kimchi jar were measured and to know how much Japanese like to have Korean traditional Kimchi, Kimchi samples with 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0% salt contents were prepared and surved to panelist at $4{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. Sensory evaluation of Kimchi in terms of appearance, texture, carbonated mouthfeel, salty taste, sour taste, peppery taste and overall acceptability was done by scoring system with maximum 7 points and was analyzed statistically by SAS program. The results of fermentation of Kimchi which was made at $12{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ and stored at $17{\pm}1^{\circ}C\;and\;4{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ were as follows: pH and total acid content of Kimchi which was stored at $17{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ for 4 days were almost same as those of Kimchi at $4{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ for 48 days. Cell counts of total microbes and lactic acid bacteria in Kimchi which was stored at $17{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ for 2 days and at $4{\pm}1^{\circ}C\;for\;9\;days\;were\;1.5{\times}10^9\;cells/mL\;and\;6.3{\times}10^8\;cells/mL,\;2.0{\times}10^8\;cells/mL\;and\;8.7{\times}10^7\;cells/mL$, respectively. Time and temperature at the center of Kimchi jar during fermentation was took 25 and 35 hours to get to $17^{\circ}C\;and\;4^{\circ}C$ from initial temperature, respectively. Japanese who had experiences in eating Kimchi liked Korean traditional Kimchi with 2.0% of salt content. Sensory evaluation of Japanese consumer on peppery taste and overall acceptability of Kimchi showed significant difference (P<0.05).
