This study was conducted to develop processing method for vinegar powder from natural vinegar for encapsulation applications. To optimize the spray drying process, experiment was designed by central composition method to find optimal conditions for manufacturing vinegar powder. The acidity, water absorption, solid content and heat stability of vinegar powder were selected as response variables. The optimal concentration of inclusion complex which was made with vinegar and ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin was determined on 30。bx. On increasing the concentration of ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin as a wall material, the quality of the vinegar was decreased. The optimum conditions of spray drying process for manufacturing vinegar powder were 188∼192$^{\circ}C$ and 500∼600 Lh$\^$ -1/ as inlet temperature and flow rate, respectively.

This study was performed to develop extract materials from Elsholtzia splendens by analyzing the functionality and aroma profile by the simultaneous steam distillation extraction. The qualities of extracts such as total yield, total phenolic compound and electron donation ability were affected by extraction temperature than time. The main flavor compounds were analyzed as estragole, thymol and beta-caryophyllene. The response variables had significant with extraction temperature than tim. The established model was suitable to predict calculated value in experimental ranges. The optimum extinction conditions, which were limited of maximum value for dependent variables were $108^{\circ}C$ and 2.1 hr in the simultaneous steam distillation extraction method.

Muskmelon(Cucumis melo L.)은 독특한 향기와 높은 당도로 각광받고 있는 과일로 주로 지중해, 아시아, 북유럽과 미주지역에서 광범위하게 재배되고 있으며 우리나라에서는 주로 시설 내에서 재배되고 있다. 점차 그 수요가 증가하고 있는 fresh-cut제품은 유통, 저장 기간 동안 제품의 신선함 유지가 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 가공 전 열처리가 fresh-cut muskmelon의 품질에 미치는 영향과 최적 열처리 조건을 조사하였다. Half-cut melon을 대상으로 blanching 온도 설정을 위한 예비 실험을 한 결과 5$0^{\circ}C$ 열처리한 구가 향, 연화 저해 정도, 그리고 전체적인 기호도에 대한 관능평가 가장 우수하였다. 이를 바탕으로 5$0^{\circ}C$의 water bath상에서 whole melon을 10, 20, 30, 40분 blanching하여 5$^{\circ}C$에서 24시간 저장한 후 cork borer를 이용하여 cylinder 형의 fresh-cut melon을 가공하였다. 가공한 melon은 5$^{\circ}C$에서 6일 저장하면서 L-value, chroma-value, soluble solid, pH, 경도, 호흡 변화 등을 통해 품질변화를 측정하였다. 저장 6일후 L-value의 변화는 대조구에서 가장 크게 나타났으며, chroma-value는 저장 시간이 경과함에 따라 감소하였으며 10분 열처리 한 구에서 변화정도가 가장 낮게 나타났다. 수용성 고형분 함량은 저장기간의 경과에 따른 큰 변화는 없었으나 40분 열처리한 구에서 수용성 고형분 함량이 가장 낮았으며 20, 30분 열처리한 구에서 높게 나타났다. 저장 중 fresh-cut melon의 pH는 증가하는 경향을 보였으며 10분 열처리한 구에서 가장 낮게 나타났다. 호흡변화는 저장 기간이 경과함에 따라 $O_2$는 감소하고 $CO_2$는 증가했으며 특히 20분 열처리한 구에서 $CO_2$가 크게 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 증가 정도가 가장 크게 나타났다. 열처리한 fresh-cut melon의 hardness는 저장 3일 후 대조구와 40분 열처리 구에서 가장 낮아 연화현상을 확인했으며 20분 열처리구에서 초기 hardness가 유지되는 것으로 확인했다. 따라서 fresh-cut melon을 위한 가공 전 열처리를 위해서는 5$0^{\circ}C$에서 10분 열처리가 품질 변화를 유지하는데 적당하다고 판단된다.

This study was carried out to find the effects of salt and other materials on the taste and fermentation of kimchi. Several parameters such as pH, acidity, salt concentration and sensory evaluation during fermentation at $20^{\circ}C\;and\;5^{\circ}C$ (after keeping at $20^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours) were used. The results are as follows: As the fermentation period increases the pH of kimchi decreases. The pH of all samples rapidly decreases to 4.2. During fermentation, the acidity at 3 hours was higher than at 5, 8 and 12 hours. For in the sensory evaluation during fermentation, kimchi salted for 5 hours showed a higher score than those salted for 3, 8 and 12 hours. During the storage period, the pH of kimchi with salted oysters rapidly decreased. A sensory evaluation done during the storage period, showed that earlier on in the storage, kimchi with salted oysters was scored higher than kimchi with other Jeotkals. The leek-added kimchi was also highly scored.

본 연구에서는 가교화 ${\beta}-CD$로 크림치즈의 콜레스테롤을 효과적으로 제거하는 실험을 수행 하였으며, 크림치즈의 이화학적 변화와 관능적 특성을 살펴보았다. 크림치즈를 만들기 위한 유지방 함량 36%의 크림을 가교화 ${\beta}-CD$로 처리 시 콜레스테롤 제거 최적 조건은 가교화 ${\beta}-CD$ 10%를 첨가해 교반온도 $20^{\circ}C$, 교반시간 30분, 교반속도 800rpm으로 실험한 결과 콜레스테롤 제거율이 평균 82.0%로 나타났다. 가교화 ${\beta}-CD$처리 크림치즈는 short-chain fatty acid의 경우 저장 기간이 지남에 따라 control과 powder ${\beta}-CD$ 처리한 크림치즈에 비해 저급 지방산 생성에 변화가 거의 없고, 쓴맛을 내는 아미노산의 경우 저장 기간 동안 control과 powder ${\beta}-CD$처리 크림치즈에 비해 생산량이 현저하게 적었다. 또한 가교화 ${\beta}-CD$처리 크림치즈의 조직검사에서 다른 항목에서보다 저장 기간 동안 응집성이 변함이 없으며 그 수치가 높게 평가되었다. 관능검사 결과, 가교화 ${\beta}-CD$처리 크림치즈는 저장 기간 동안 쓴맛의 증가가 거의 없었고 전체적인 기호도 또한 높았다. 위 실험 결과에 따르면, 가교화 ${\beta}-CD$ 사용결과 cholesterol 제거율이 높으며, 제품에 적용시 재활용이 가능하고 품질이 향상되므로 이를 유가공 산업에 활용이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

The object of this work is to improve the maintenance of bioluminescence from stored Photobacterium phosphoreum in a view of developing continuous monitoring system for pollutants. The long-term experiments were performed to determine the effect of storage temperature and immobilization on the maintenance of bioluminescence and viability of P. phosphoreum. A naturally luminescent bacterium, P. phosphoreum was starved in 2.5% Nael solution at $20^{\circ}C$, $4^{\circ}C$, -$20^{\circ}C$ and -$70^{\circ}C$ for 30 days. In vivo luminescence was measured by luminometry, and total cell concentrations and concentrations of culturable and viable cells were determined by acridine orange staining, dilution plate counting, and direct viable counting, respectively. The bioluminescence emission from cells stored at 4De was maintained up to 10 days while those with starved cells at other temperature ranges decreased to background level within 3 days. In terms of viability of cells, concentrations of cells stored at $20^{\circ}C$ were rapidly decreased as a result of cell lysis, leading to a drop in culturable and viable counts while cells stored at $4^{\circ}C$ was shown viable but nonculturable state during starvation. With immobilized cells on strontium alginate, the bioluminescence showed higher maintenance than free cells and decreased with count number of nonculturable cells.

We aimed to determine the quality indicators for quality prediction of frozen green pumpkin in distribution. Freshly harvested green pumpkin slices were blanched under optimal conditions (confirmed in a preliminary experiment), quick-frozen at $-40^{\circ}C$ for 24 h, and stored at 0, -5, -15, and $-25^{\circ}C$. The correlation between each quality characteristic and the sensory preference rate was analyzed. There was a significant correlation between storage temperature-related drip rate and preference rate across all temperatures, except at$-25^{\circ}C$. Hunter values, a and b, showed relatively high correlation coefficient values at -5, -15, and $-25^{\circ}C$. Therefore, a change in the Hunter values should be considered when storing green pumpkin, because of their significant correlation with changes in the sensory preference and drip rates. Furthermore, they should be applied as quality indicators for the quality prediction of frozen green pumpkin in distribution.

This study was conducted to identify optimum ripening condition for kiwifruits (Actinidia deliciosa) to prevent postharvest fruit rots caused by Botryosphaeria dothidea, Diaporthe actinidiae and Botrytis cinerea. The optimum temperatures for mycelial growth of B. dothidea, D. actinidiae and B. cinerea were $26{\sim}35^{\circ}C$, $26{\sim}29^{\circ}C$ and $20{\sim}26^{\circ}C$, respectively, and the incidence was closely related with the temperature. Although kiwifruits ripened faster at higher temperatures, the rates of diseased fruits increased with the rates of ripened fruits increased. Optimum conditions for ripening of kiwifruit were 20-day at 17C.

This study was conducted to the optimize salting process of eggplant for development new product and enhancement quality for export. Three variables by five level central composite design and response surface methodology were used to determine optimum conditions for salting time, temperature and salt concentration. Optimization of the process was conducted using the combination of the moisture content, salinity and color of surface and inside of salted eggplant. The regression polynomial model was suitable (P>0.05) by Lack-of-Fit analysis with highly significant. To optimize the process, based on surface response and contour plots, the individual contour plots of the response variables were superimposed. The optimum conditions for this process were 6 days and 15$^{\circ}C$ at 30％ concentration under the optimum of restricted variables as moisture content was below 84％, salinity was below 14％, L and b value of surface were 10 to 20 and below 0, L value and b value of inside were 70 to 75 and 16 to 18.
