Germination of soybean and growth of its sprouts should be affected by storage condition and period of seeds. The experiment was conducted to examine the effects of period stored at cold room and storage conditions on their growth and morphological characters. The seeds, cv. Pungsannamulkong, were stored at $3^{\circ}C$ for 1 or 2 years, and by the three different storage methods of indoor, cold room, or transfer of indoor to cold room. Compared to the seeds stored for 2 years, one-year seeds had higher rate in hypocotyl of longer than 7 cm, root and hypocotyl lengths, and more hypocotyl fresh weight although there was not significant difference in total fresh weight. In the storage method experiment, one-year seeds stored at cold room and by transfer of indoor to cold room showed better growth, more lateral roots and fresh weights, although only two-year seeds stored at cold room did the same response, indicating that growth of soybean was affected by period and method of seed storage.

This experiment was carried out to obtain the basic information necessary to establish suitable postharvest handling techniques and to keep high quality of the sweet(Danok 2), supersweet(Cooktail 86) and waxy(Chalok 1) corn which are mainly consumed as vegetable in Korea. Vegetable corns were cooled with ice fragments in the insulation box immediately after harvest and stored in low temperature warehouse at 0 to 2$^{\circ}C$. During the 15 days short-term storage, changes of chemical components were compared with those of uncooled corns. The losses of moisture in kernels were as high as 7.4 to 24.4％ in uncooled corns while those of ice cooled corns increased 0.4 to 0.5％ of their weight. The ratio of pericarp and alcohol insoluble solid(AIS) content increased as the storage days prolonged in all treatments but increasing rates were much higher in uncooled samples. On the other hand, the total sugar loss during storage was the least in supersweet corn when they were cooled with ice fragments in insulation box. After 5 days storage, the ice cooled samples showed the highest free amino acid contents compare to those of uncooled and stored at room temperature (25 to 3$0^{\circ}C$) or low temperature warehouse, and ${\gamma}$-aminobutylic acid (GABA) which was known as a fuctional amino acid was detected in all three kinds of vegetable corns.

In this study, edible coatings for ‘Niikata’ pears have been applied in order to provide an alternative way to control and extend market quality and shelf life during cold storage. Fruit treated with edible coatings had better effects on maintaining some quality features such as fresh weight, firmness and SSC content than non-coated fruits. However, non-coated fruits in terms of overall quality were better evaluated than fruit with edible film. It may be caused by various factors such as film thickness effect oil emulsion on fruit skin, unknown reactions between the fruit skin and functional groups in the chitosan structure and so on.

포도 중 캠벨얼리 품종은 색이 검붉고 당도가 높아 우리나라 대표적인 품종 중에 하나로 알려져있다. 그러나 수확 후 저장 유통 중 품질이 저하되기 쉽다. 따라서 예냉 조건 및 수송, 저장, 유통조건에 따른 품질조사를 비교실험하여 가장 안전한 저장 유통 방법을 개발하고자 하였다. 실험재료는 2003년 8월20일경에 포도 주산지인 영천 농가에서 수화 한 후 바로 예냉처리를 하였다. 이때 사용한 예냉기는 원예연구소에서 개발한 시제작품을 사용하였다. 대조구로 무예냉을 두었으며 예냉 후 수송온도도 관행적인 상온과 저온(2$^{\circ}C$)로 구분 처리하였으며 저온온도별로도 함께 실험하였다. 포장단위도 2kg 와 5kg로 각각 처리하여 수행하였다. 예냉이 품질에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 예냉처리에 따른 호흡패턴 변화와 이화학적 특성변화를 조사하였다. 또한 저장 중 중량감소율, 부패율 및 탈립율을 조사하였다. 포도 ‘켐벨얼리’의 수확 시 품온 29.5$^{\circ}C$를 적정 저장 온도인 2$^{\circ}C$로 저하시키는데 일반 저온 저장고에서 10시간 정도 걸리는 데 반하여 차압예냉기 이용시 3시간으로 단축시킬 수 있었으며 예냉 포도의 처리구별 호흡량은 초기 6.65$m\ell$/kg/hr 였으나 상온무예냉 및 예냉 처리구의 경우에는 저장해가면서 급격히 증가되었고 저온에서는 무예냉의 경우에는 계속 증가되는 반면 예냉 처리구의 경우에는 포장 규격과는 상관없이 다른 처리구 보다 호흡억제 효과가 있었다. Ethylene 발생량 역시 호흡과 비슷한 경향을 보여 주어 예냉 시 과실의 품질 저하 요인 발생량을 억제시킬 수 있었다. 경도는 저장 기간이 경과됨에 감소되나 저온 예냉 처리구의 경우가 초기 1.26N을 높게 유지하였고 자연중량 감모율은 상온저장 2주째 무예냉처리구 8.40%로 감소된데 비하여 예냉 저온 수송 구의 경우에는 0.25%로 매우 낮았다. 포도 ‘켐벨얼리’의 저온 저장중 부패율은 저장 2주째 상온 무예냉 처리구의 경우 19.8%이었으나 저온 예냉 처리구의 경우는 부패과가 발생하지 않았고 탈립율 역시 상온무예냉처리구의 경우 53.5%인데 반하여 저온 예냉 처리구는 저장 4주경과 시까지 탈림과가 없었다. 당도 및 pH변화 역시 차압 예냉 후 저온 수송 처리구가 초기당도(12.0Bx)$^{\circ}$값과 초기 pH(3.8)를 저장 25일 경과시까지 유지하였다. 수확 시 높은 품온을 갖고 있는 과일을 산지에서 예냉 처리를 한 후 저온 냉장차를 이용하여 유통한다면 관행 유통 구조보다 고품질의 포도를 유통시킬 수 있는 것으로 사료되며 앞으로는 완숙된 고 당도(12.0~15.0Bx)$^{\circ}$ 포도를 수확 한 즉시 예냉 처리하고 저온 유통한다면 보다 신선한 과일을 소비자에게 전달 할 수 있을 것이다.

The conditions of cold storage of Citrus unshiu Marc. var. miyagawa produced in Cheju were investigated. Compared to the citrus fruits stored at room temperature, the content of soluble solids, total sugar, vitamin C and specific gravity decreased slightly on the fruits stored at $4^{\circ}C$ and 87% relative humidity. Decay ratio and weight loss were below 10% on keeping freshness relatively till late of March during cold storage. Weight loss, decrease of firmness and soluble solids occured gradually during cold storage. Nevertheless seal-packaging with 0.02 mm LDPE film or wax-coating of citrus fruits were effective on weight loss and appearance, decay ratio increased for long-term storage. It was needed to control humidity in cold chamber for preventing from decay and weight loss. Edible part ratio was decreased gradually by respiration, and peel and tissue of fruits were softened slightly by 60 days of cold storage. Decay ratio and weight loss of full-ripened citrus fruits were little during the storage for 100 days, compared to the fruits harvested early. Appearance and taste of citrus fruits stored for 4 month were good relatively, but decay occured rapidly on seal-packaging fruits putting out of cold room for a few days. Because of the difficulty of long-term storage for early variety of Citrus unshiu, the conditions and periods of cold storage would be determined after considering the physicochemical properties of fruits.

Activity of the noncontacted low temperature atmospheric pressure surface discharged plasma (LASDP) converts stable gas to ionized gas known as discharge or plasma. This ionized gas exhibits the antimicrobial activity. We examined the effects of 3 different storage treatments for 80 days on 'Setoka' : ambient storage (AS), low-tempperature storage (LTS), and low-temperature atmospheric pressure plasma+low-tempperature storage (PLTS). Total soluble solids showed no the significant differences between the 3 treatments. Acidity gradually decreased, and was 0.5% under AS after 30 days of storage. Fruit firmness increased by a few percent until 40 days of storage. Weight loss in AS was higher than for other treatments. After 80 days of storage, the decay ratio was significantly low in PLTS treatment: (AS, 50.5%; LTS, 5.6%; PLTS, 1.9%). In AS treatment, 73% of the rotten fruits were infected particularly with green and blue mold; however, only 1% of the rotten fruits were infected in case of PLTS treatment. In conclusion, LASDP treatment can prevent postharvest decay caused by fungi and is an efficacious alternative extending the shelf-life of citrus fruits.

Frozen cod fillet block(7.0$\times$4.6$\times$0.6cm, 18$\pm$0.5g) was purchased from a supermarket in Taegu area. Three experimental groups of fish fillet, frozen-thawed cod fillet refrigerated at 5$^{\circ}C$(R), frozen at -2$0^{\circ}C$(F) and repeated freezing and refrigerating(RFR) every other day, were incubated at each temperature. Changes in the viable counts of mesophiles and psychrotrops, the amount of free drip and pH of cod muscle during cold storage were 6.5$\times$104 and 7.4$\times$103 CFU/g of muscle, respectively. The viable counts of cod muscle R and FRF exceeded 107 CFU/g within 8 days and 16 days, respectively, while the viable counts of cod muscle F were not exceeded 107 cells/g throughout the storage period. The viable counts of psychrotrops exceeded that of mesophiles at the end of cold storage period. The viable counts of cod muscle showed positive correlation with pH(r=0.73-0.96,the highest in RFR) during cold storage. The amount of free drip in cod muscle R, F and RFR was 27.06$\pm$9.75, 27.56$\pm$8.02 and 33.97$\pm$10.70%, respectively. The amount of free drip in RFR increased as the progress of storage.

The effect of storage temperatures ($0^{\circ}C$and $20^{\circ}C$) and packing functional film for fruit quality were examined in 'Fuyu' persimmon. The fresh weight loss was delay more effectively by the inhibition of transpiration when functional film was used. The firmness was effectively maintained in functional film packages at low temperature ($0^{\circ}C$), which might result from the beneficial combination of $CO_2$ and $O_2$. The soluble solid contents was higher with packing of functional film at $0^{\circ}C$ than at room temperature ($20^{\circ}C$). Highest $CO_2$ production in functional film bags was observed in room temperature storage after one week and thereafter declined sharply whereas lowest in 8 weeks. $CO_2$ concentration regardless of packing slowly increased to $5.2{\mu}L{\sim}10.2mL{\cdot}kg^{-1}{\cdot}h^{-1}$ until 8 weeks of low temperature due to persimmon respiration. Hunter 'b' value changed greatly yellowness according to temperature of storage but there were no significant differences among packaging treatments. Effects of functional film and low temperature in slower softening were consistent. This results suggested that the packing functional film at low temperature resulted in the best retention of quality market.

This research was conducted to find out whether controlled atmosphere(CA) can maintain Satsuma Mandarin fruit fresh longer compared to cold storage. Fruit harvested in Nov. 1998 at Jeju Province were stored in three different CA condition including cold storage. The CA treatments consisted of combinations of 3%, 5% and 10.9% $CO_2$ with 1% and 3-3.9% $O_2$, respectively. Weight and firmness were maintained higher in static CA chambers than in the cold storage. Soluble solid content in fruit of cold storage increased until 2 months of storage and thereafter sharply decreased, whereas that of CA-stored fruit increased slowly throughout the storage period of 120 days. Citric acid decreased obviously in all the treatments with a partially longer retention in CA chambers during storage. Sensory evaluation clearly showed that CA could extend market period of Satsuma Mandarin fruit.
