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 $0^{\circ}C,\;1%\;O_{2}+1%\;CO_2$.

'Yeobong' strawberries were stored at $2^{\circ}C$ under controlled atmosphere (CA) containing the combinations of $O_2{\;}(3.8%)$ and $CO_2{\;}(10,{\;}15,{\;}20%)$ and air as control. Atmospheres of $3%{\;}O_2+15%{\;}CO_2$ and $8%{\;}O_2+15%{\;}CO_2$ reduced respiration and ethylene production rates. Fruits kept under CA conditions of 10% and 15% $CO_2$ were harder than those stored under 20% $CO_2$ and air. The CA conditions of 10% or 15% $CO_2$ maintained approximately 80% of vitamin C for 24 days. Redness were increased and then decreased, but the changing trends were not clear among the storage conditions. Anthocyanin contents in $3%{\;}O_2+15%{\;}CO_2$ and $8%{\;}O_2+15%{\;}CO_2$ were slightly increased for 16 days and then decreased thereafter, while anthocyanin content in air was rapidly increased for 8 days. After 16 days of storage, off-flavor were perceived in all CA storage. And strawberries stored in 20% $CO_2$ conditions were unacceptable after 20 days. The 20% $CO_2$ significantly affected off-flavor of strawberries, but there was no significant difference between 10% $CO_2$ and 15% $CO_2$ conditions. Ethanol which is in relation to off-flavor was higher with elevated $CO_2$ levels. Although CA conditions under $3%{\;}O_2+15%{\;}CO_2$ was effective in delaying the quality changes, there was high ethanol content compared to $8%{\;}O_2+15%{\;}CO_2$ condition. Strawberry kept under $8%{\;}O_2+15%{\;}CO_2$ was maintained the shelf-life for 24 days and the condition prolonged more $4{\sim}8$ days and 12 days than the other CA conditions and air, resectively.

We evaluated the microbial safety and quality characteristics of Korean slice beef jerky, and investigated these properties over 28-day and 90-day storage periods at room temperature ($25^{\circ}C$) and elevated temperature ($35^{\circ}C$). After microbial counts of all samples, mesophilic bacteria were detected at 1.23 Log CFU/g at day 0. Counts of mesophilic bacteria did not change significantly in all samples, and coliforms and Bacillus cereus were not detected in all samples during storage at either $25^{\circ}C$ or $35^{\circ}C$. TBA values, Aw, and pH were investigated. The Aw of korean slice beef jerky stored at room temperature was 0.71 at day 0, and was reduced to 0.61 after 90 days. The TBA value increased as storage time increased, and its TBA value was 0.48 after 90 days of storage. The pH of all samples did not change significantly. At $35^{\circ}C$ storage, TBA values, Aw, pH were not significantly different than those stored at $25^{\circ}C$. Also, the sensory properties of all samples were not significantly different between two storage temperatures. In conclusion, these results suggest Koran slice beef jerky ould be used as basic study for development of the commercial beef jerky.

An investigation on optimum condition for processing of salted-dried sardine and quality change of the product during the storage was carried out. The fillets of sardine were salted in 5, 10 and $15\%$ NaCl solution for 12, 24 and 36 hours at $9-10^{\circ}C$, respectively and air-blast dried at $24-25^{\circ}C$ with a velocity of 3 m/sec and then stored at room temperature for 30 days. The results were as follows : The optimum condition for the product was salting in $15\%$ NaCl solution for 36 hours as VBN and histamine contents were 27.5 mg/100g and 42.5 mg/100g, respectively, and also showed a good result in sensory evaluation. Histamine, VBN and TMA-N content of the dried fillets immediately after salting in $15\%$ NaCl solution for 36 hours increased to 47.8 mg, 29.5 mg and 5.4mg per 100g of the sample, respectively and increased slowly during the storage. The peroxide value and acid value of the lipid extracted from the product increased from 15.9 meq/kg to 114.0 meq/kg, and 12.6 to 30.5 during the storage. In the fatty acid composition, $C_{22:6}\;and\;C_{20:5}$ acids were decreased during the storage period.

Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors, which enhance cholinergic transmission by reducing the enzymatic degradation of acetylcholine, are the only source of the compound that is currently approved for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD). In these experiments, the concentration samples of green tea extracts were 100, 500, and 1,000 ${\mu}g$/mL. Among them, the highest concentration (1,000 ${\mu}g$/mL) of fresh green tea extracts showed the most potent inhibitory effect on AChE by reducing more than 40% of enzyme activity, and in a concentration-dependent pattern. In addition, we examined the effect of other storing conditions on AChE inhibition. In order to maintain storage for 3 months, the materials were held at the certain storing conditions of temperature (room temperature, 4 and $-20^{\circ}C$) and for water activity (0.81, 0.69, and 0.23). In these storing conditions, the difference in temperature did not contribute to the AChE inhibitory effect. Our presented data showed that the AChE inhibitory effect was affected by the concentration of green tea extract and by water activity (0.81). These results suggest that green tea may serve as a potential dietary source of AChE inhibitor.

To extend the freshness of late autumn Chinese cabbage, the packaging and loading effects on the quality were investigated during cold storage. Judging from overall quality during storage period, late autumn Chinese cabbage could be stored by 3 months at 0$\^{C}$ cold storage. However, late autumn Chinese cabbage was not acceptable for long-term storage because of its marketability and the storage cost. Among 3 packaging methods(PP-net, carton and plastic container) for stored Chinese cabbage, plastic container and carton were more effective than PP-net packaging for the freshness prolongation. Gas composition in the plastic bags during storage was not significantly different among packaging conditions and O$_2$ and CO$_2$ concentrations were 13∼18% and 0.75∼7.48%, respectively, MAP with plastic film was effective for the quality retention because of low oxygen composition and high humidity condition in the bags.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of initial ripening condition placed within a kimchi refrigerator and this result will be used as basic data for the development of fermentation system of Kimchi refrigerator. Hardness significantly decreased as the storage period longer. Lactic acid and Lactobacillus spp. showed a large amount until 8 weeks, but one without initial ripening contained much lower. The content of lactic acid bacteria increased from 4.50 logCFU/mL to 6.70 ~ 7.47 logCFU/mL and decreased to 5.08 ~ 6.10 logCFU/mL according to storage period. Consumer preferred $15^{\circ}C/52h$ samples rather than others in two weeks. $15^{\circ}C/36h$ and $6^{\circ}C/113h$ samples were significantly preferred during the whole storage period. These results indicate that the initial fermentation conditions affect the taste and fermentation degree of kimchi during the storage period.

본 연구는 추진제 연소관 내부에 도포 되는 내열재 라이닝 공정을 최적화하기 위해 라이너 Premix 반응성을 실험하고 그결과를 토대로 Premix 저장조건을 설정하였다. HX-계열의 Bonding agent를 사용하는 LH-2, LH-5, LH-6 라이너를 선택하여 각각 20, 30, $40^{\circ}C$하에서 5주간 저장후 경화제와 경화촉매를 주입하고 초기점도를 측정하여 반응성을 예측하였다. 그 결과 Bonding agent로 HX-868을 사용하는 LH-5, LH-6 라이너가 HX-752를 사용하는 LH-2보다 반응성이 빠르며, 경화제와 경화촉매로 DDI와 T-12를 사용하는 LH-5 라이너가 IPDI와 $Fe(AA)_3$를 사용하는 LH-6 라이너 보다 반응성이 빠르게 나타났다. 이러한 저장온도와 기간에 따른 반응성을 토대로 공정 적용시 급격한 점도 상승에 의한 작업의 불안정성을 피하기 위해 일정 점도를 초과하지 않는 라이너 Premix 저장조건을 설정하였고, 향후에는 Bonding agent로. HX-868을 사용하는 LH-5, LH-6 라이너는 보다 공정성이 양호한 HX-752로 바꾸어 주는 것이 바람직 할 것이다.
