The characteristics of the Baikkimchi sauce made from natural pigments according to the preservation period were explored. For this research, two Baikkimchi sauces were made. One was made of Baikkimchi and only side materials (Sauce I). The other was made of Baikkimchi, side materials and 1.5% of orange paprika powders (Sauce II). There was no significant change in pH and the total acidity. The color showed better stability in the sauce II, the one with the natural pigments. As the preservation period increased, vitamin C content and the viscosity decreased. In addition, the number of lactic acid bacteria became rather reduced. Sevral sensory features were different significantly according to the preservation period, and the one with source II showed better features overally.

Exponentially growing cells of S. cerevisiae were cultivated in the concomitant presence of $2{\times}10^{-3}\;M$ paraquat for 12 hours. Cellular growth became slower as the time passed and then, it was completely inhibited after 6 hours of cultivation. More than 70 percent of the yeast cells were killed with in 12 hours of paraquat treatment. It was observed that size of the yeast cell varied from $4.5{\times}5.5{\um}m$ to $2.5{\times}3.5{\um}m$ in diameter, while that of control was uniform. The number of budding cells became rare, Cell wall of the paraquat treated cell was thinner$(0.15{\mu}m)$ than that of control cell$(0.20{\mu}m)$. Outer part of the cell wall had higher density than inner part. Membrane structures such as plasma membrane and mitochondria was decomposed during the paraquat treatment for 12 hours.

The effects of garlic concentrations on the properties of squid sik-hae such as the chemical and microbial changes were investigated. pH, the amounts of lactic acid showed significant differences at early stages of fermentation and no significant differences at later stages with increasing garlic concentrations. The amount of TMAO decreased with increasing storage periods and garlic concentrations, whereas that of TMA increased significantly at early stages of fermentation and showed no significant differences with increasing garlic concentrations. At later stages of fermentation, the amount of TMA at $2\%$ garlic concentration was higher than those at 3 and $4\%$. The number of lactic acid bacteria increased significantly garlic concentrations at early stages of storage and had no significant differences at later stages. The numbers of proteolytic bacteria, psychrotroph, and fungi increased in proportion to length of storage and garlic concentrations at early stages of storage whereas, the number of bacteria decreased significantly at later stages of storage with increasing garlic concentrations.

In order to help the preservation of the cherry tomato and unshiu orange, antimicrobial paper incorporating grapefruit seed extract and zeolite was applied to the package. Cherry tomato and unshiu orange were packed in a box (38x25x20 cm) attached with antimicrobial paper and then stored respectively at $5^{\circ}C$. During the storage, weight loss, pH total acidity, soluble solid content microbial load and decay ratio were measured as quality indices. pH increase in cherry tomato was observed until 20 days, and decreased with litle difference between the packaging treatments thereafter pH and total acidity decrease in unshiu orange were shown till 30 days, and abrupt change was revealed by 40 days. This was due to physiological disorders. The microbial loads of total aerobic bacteria, and yeast/mold count were suppressed during storage by the box packaging incorporated with antimicrobial agents, which also contributed to reducing the decayed cherry tomato and unshiu orange. Antimicrobial paper was useful fur the reduction of microbial load in cherry tomato and unshiu orange pear without other quality deterioration.

For the distribution of fresh produce, the thermoelectric cooling system combined with thermo electric materials (TEM) and phase change material (PCM) was studied. The PCM used this study was produced by in-situ polymerization technology which referred microencapsulation of hydrocarbon (n-tetradecane and n-hexadecane). In this study, quality characteristics of bell peppers in thermoelectric cooling system combined with TEM and PCM were analyzed and control was placed in an EPS (expanded polystyrene) box. As a result of quality characteristics analysis, weight of bell peppers decreased and moisture content of bell peppers was 90.96~94.43% during storage. Vitamin C content of bell pepper decreased during storage and reduction ratio of control was higher than that of BPT-5 treatment(bell pepper in thermoelectric cooling system with PCM which is kept the temperature at $5^{\circ}C$). The result of color value, on 21 day, ${\Delta}E$ value of BPT-5 treatment was 5.05 while that of control was 41.8. On 21 day, total bacteria count of BPT-5 treated bell pepper shown less than that of control. In conclusion, it suggested that the thermoelectric cooling system combined with PCM improved quality of fresh produce during transportation and storage.

To investigate the effect of a solar salt on Kimchi fermentation, Chinese cabbages were brined with four-years aged solar salt (FS), one-year aged solar salt (OS), and purified salt (PS). The Kimchi was fermented at $7^{\circ}C$ for 33 days. The changes in pH and acidity of the Kimch brined with PS was slower than those of Kimchis brined with FS and OS. In the Kimchis with FS and OS, lactic acid bacteria (LAB) counts increased from 7.10~7.22 log CFU/mL at 0 day to 9.26~9.42 log CFU/mL at 12 days, after which counts slightly decreased to 8.04~8.75 log CFU/mL by 33 days of fermentation. The LAB counts of the kimchi with PS slowly increased from 7.24 log CFU/mL at 0 day to 8.99 log CFU/mL at 27 days, after then which counts sharply decreased to 7.92 log CFU/mL by 33 days of fermentation. Yellowness (b) color values of the kimchi with PS (59.10) was higher than the Kimchi with FS (53.68) and the Kimchi with OS (53.77). Hardness of the Kimchi with FS was more firm than the other Kimchis after 33 days storage. Sensory evaluation of the Kimchi with FS showed higher score than that of the other Kimchis.

The storage characteristics of milled rice produced using the dry-type (DT), semi-dry-type (SDT), and wet-type (WT) systems were studied. Immediately after rice was milled with these systems, storage experiments on the milled rice were conducted for 12 weeks at three temperatures (10, 20, and $30^{\circ}C$). As the storage period increased, the color (b value) and the fat acidity slowly increased, and the whiteness, moisture content, turbidity, solid matter, and number of total bacteria decreased. The effects of the storage temperature on the moisture content, total number of bacteria, and fat acidity were greater than those of the milling system type. The high storage temperature showed greater potential for increasing the moisture content and the fat acidity and decreasing the total number of bacteria. The initial moisture content of the sample produced using the WT milling system was higher than that of the other samples. Also, the initial turbidity and solid matter of the WT system sample were lower than those of the other samples, but the degree of the decrease was similar to that of the others as the storage period passed. These results showed that the system type and the storage temperature are important factors in the safe storage of wash-free rice. Specifically, the wet type milling system affected the initial quality properties, which made its safe storage period shorter than in the other types.

The effect of ${\gamma}-irradiation$ was investigated on salted and fermented squid, squid jeotkal. Squid jeotkal was prepared with salt concentrations of 5%, 10% and 20% and was fermented at $15^{\circ}C$ and $25^{\circ}C$ after ${\gamma}-irradiation$ with doses of 0, 2.5, 5 and 10 kGy, respectively. Proximate composition, salinity, water activity (Aw), pH, total bacteria and sensory evaluation were examined during fermentation periods. Results showed that ${\gamma}-irradiation$ had no effect on proximate composition, salinity and Aw compared with non-irradiated squid jeotkal. However, pH and total bacteria, as well as sensory evaluation, were changed variously with processing conditions such as NaCl concentration, irradiation dose and fermentation temperature. The results of total bacteria and sensory evaluation showed that squid jeotkal with NaCl concentration of 10% and an irradiation dose of 10 kGy maintained high quality for 30 days at $15^{\circ}C$. Therefore, it was considered that ${\gamma}-irradiation$ was effective in processing low-salted squid jeotkal and extending its shelf-life without adding any food additives.

Shindari, a traditional low alcoholic drink in Cheju island, was prepared with nuruk and the rice porridge. The rice porridge was fermented with 10% nuruk at a temperature of $25^{\circ}C,\;35^{\circ}C,\;45^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours. In all temperature, total acidity and oBrix were increased gradually and pH were decreased gradually and viscosity were considerably decreased after 2 hours and then slightly decreased. Alcohol contents were also increased during fermentation and especially at $45^{\circ}C$. The organic acids were mainly found phytic acid and succinic acid. The fermented liquids rice porridge contained maltose and glucose as free sugar, amount of them increased during fermentation. Lactic acid bacteria cell count increased at higher tem perature of fermentation and reached to $10^{7}\;cfu/ml\;at\;35^{\circ}C$ for 10hr. In conclusion, the optimal fermentation conditions Shindari preparation were at $35^{\circ}C$, 24hrs. pH, titratable acidity, viscosity and soluble solids in the optimal fermentation condition were 4.2, 0.18%, 190cp, $12.2^{\circ}Brix$, respectively.
