Functional bread was manufactured with single cell detritus (SCD) of sea tangle. The optimum ingredient formula for SCD bread was determined based on mixture model. Flour and water reduced max weight, strength, hardness and specific loaf volume, whereas the increased SCD reversed the volume change of dough. Flour increased $L^*$ and $b^*$ values of SCD bread, while SCD decreased. Flour and water decreased $a^*$ value, while SCD increased. Max weight, strength, hardness, specific loaf volume, $b^*$ value and water holding capacity (WHC) were linear model on ANOVA table, whereas distance, volume change of dough, $L^*$ and $a^*$ values were nonlinear model. The response constraint coefficient showed that SCD influenced texture of SCD bread more than flour and water did, whereas water influenced the volume change of dough, specific loaf volume and WHC more than flour and SCD did. Moreover, flour influenced color value more than did water and SCD. Distance and $a^*$ value fitted nonlinear model with interaction terms for flour-SCD and water-SCD. Optimum ingredient formula for SCD bread was: flour, 48.25%; water, 30.89%; SCD, 3.86%. Sensory evaluation of SCD bread was a little lower than industrial bread and electrolyzed SCD bread.

This study was performed to develop treatment method for reducing microbial contamination on Daruma (a semi-processed product of seasoned and dried squid) by combination of strong acidic hypochlorous water (SAHW) and ultrasonic waves (UW). The available chlorine concentration, oxidation reduction potential (ORP) and pH of SAHW were $69.67{\pm}0.58ppm$, $1071.33{\pm}4.16mV$ and 2.79, respectively. The 1.49 log CFU/g of viable cell count and 1.32 log CFU/g of Staphylococcus aureus was reduced, and Escherichia coli was reduced below detection limit when the Daruma was treated with 20 times (w/v) of sodium hypochlorite solution (SHS) for 120 min. The 3.62 log CFU/g of viable cell count and 3.22 log CFU/g of Staphylococcus aureus was reduced, and Escherichia coli was reduced below detection limit when the Daruma was treated with 20 times (w/v) of SAHW for 120 min. The antibacterial effects of SAHW were stronger than those of SHS at same available chroline concentration. SAHW treatment after washing strongly alkalic electrolyzed water (SAEW) showed better bactericidal effects than SAHW treatment only. The 4.0 log CFU/g of viable cell count was reduced, S. aureus was reduced below regulation limit (Log 2.0 CFU/g), and E. coli was reduced below detection limit when the Daruma was treated with 20 times (w/v) of SAHW for 90 min after washing with 20 times (w/v) of SAEW for 60 min. The viable cell number was reduced below detection limit and S. aureus was reduced below regulation limit when the Daruma was treated with 20 times (w/v) of SAHW for 60 min in ultrasonic washer. E. coli was reduced below detection limit when the Daruma was treated with 20 times (w/v) of SAHW for 10 min in ultrasonic washer. These results suggest that combination of SAHW and UW may be a good technique to reduce the microbial contamination in daruma.

Recently, a study on alternative and renewable energy is being conducted due to energy depletion and environmental problems. In particular, a hydrogen has the advantage of converting and storing the remaining energy into water-electrolyzed hydrogen through renewable energy generation. In general, due to reasons such as insulation problems, a study on high-pressure hydrogen storage tanks and related parts has recently been conducted. However, in the case of liquid hydrogen, the volume can be reduced by about 800 times or more compared to high-pressure hydrogen gas, so the study on this is needed as a technology that can increase energy density. In this study, the evaporation characteristics were analyzed under fixed heat flux conditions for liquid hydrogen storage tanks and the change in thermal stratification according to sloshing was analyzed. The heat flux condition was fixed at 250 W/m² and the horizontal resonance frequency of the primary mode was applied to the storage tank. As a result, it was confirmed that the thermal stratification phenomenon decreased compared to the case where the slashing was not present due to forced convection when the slashing was present.

In this study, the microbial control effect after treatment of washing solutions (tap water, electrolyzed water, chlorine dioxide solution) and quality changes were investigated when Kwamegi is produced by means of the cold air drying. The initial moisture rate of the sample was 56.62% before drying. At the beginning of drying period, moisture rate sharply fell down but as the experiment progressed, moisture reducing rate was smoothly decreased. The color difference of Kwamegi before drying was 42.40, but it was reduced depending on the increment of drying temperature and time. TBA value of the initial sample was 0.219, rancidity were increased continuously when drying progressed. Total amino acid content was showed the highest value at $25^{\circ}C$ for 36h and the lowest at $40^{\circ}C$ for 12h. From the fatty acids analysis, major fatty acids were consisted of the 14:0, 16:0 and 18:1 (18.1520.96%, 28.0632.51% and 17.0619.81%, respectively). The microbial control effect was biggest when Kwamegi was washed with chlorine dioxide 100ppm for 60s. The microbe of the Kwamegi, Pseudomonas sp. and Pseudomonas putida were identified.

The consumption of Flammulina velutipes mushroom imported from Korea has been associated with the cases of listeriosis in the United States, Canada, and Australia. We investigated the effect of sanitizing the plastic wrapper (used in packaging F. velutipes) with slightly acidic electrolyzed water (SAEW) and ultraviolet C waterproof light-emitting diode (UVC-W-LED) on reducing the Listeria monocytogenes. Further, the effect of UVC-LED on L. monocytogenes growth in F. velutipes at different storage temperatures (2, 4, and 10℃) was determined. The combined (SAEW+UVC-W-LED) treatment for 5-10 min reduced 99.9% of bacterial population from the contaminated plastic wrapper. In addition, the UVC-LED treatment for 3 min reduced the L. monocytogenes concentration in F. velutipes by 0.47 log CFU/g. Moreover, the growth of L. monocytogenes in the treated mushrooms was slower than that of the untreated (control) ones. L. monocytogenes concentration in F. velutipes increased over 3 log CFU/g at 2℃ and 10℃ for 60 and 10 days, respectively. The growth of L. monocytogenes at the bottom of mushrooms was faster than that at the top at both the temperatures. These results indicate that the combined SAEW+UVC-W-LED treatment of plastic wrappers and the UVC-LED treatment of mushrooms can be used as potential hurdle technologies to control the risk of L. monocytogenes in mushrooms prior to packaging at farms.

Bacillus subtilis subsp. subtilis constitutes 90% of the total viable bacteria present on Capsosiphon fulvescens. We found that hydrogen peroxide (50 ppm) and NaOCl (50 ppm) were more effective than electrolyzed water (EW, 50ppm) against B. subtilis subsp. subtilis that was isolated from this seaweed. Relative to a control, 50 ppm hydrogen peroxide reduced the total viable population by $1.8{\pm}0.4$ log CFU/g, whereas 50 ppm EW increased the total viable population by $1.7{\pm}0.5$ log CFU/g. CFUs were evaluated following 30 days of storage at $4^{\circ}C$ using air- and vacuum-packaging. Samples treated with 50 ppm hydrogen peroxide and NaOCl showed a $1.6{\pm}0.1$-fold decrease in initial hardness ($7.9{\times}10^6dyne/cm^2$), while the samples treated with 50 ppm EW had a $2.1{\pm}0.1$-fold decrease in initial hardness ($7.9{\times}10^6dyne/cm^2$). Again, measurements were performed after storage at $4^{\circ}C$ for 20 days. This study indicates that B. subtilis subsp. subtilis is the most common contaminant in aerobically or anaerobically packaged seaweed and should therefore be the main target for quality control during long-term storage. Hydrogen peroxide and NaOCl are more effective than EW in inhibiting B. subtilis subsp. subtilis and in reducing total bacterial loads in air- and vacuum-packaged seaweed.
