Objective: The effects of aging and freezing/thawing sequence on color, physicochemical, and enzymatic characteristics of two beef muscles (Mm. gluteus medius, GM and biceps femoris, BF) were evaluated. Methods: Beef muscles at 3 d postmortem were assigned to four different combinations of aging and freezing/thawing sequence as follows; aging at $2^{\circ}C$ for 3 wk (A3, never-frozen control), freezing at $-28^{\circ}C$ for 2 wk then thawing (F2, frozen/thawed-only), aging at $2^{\circ}C$ for 3 wk, freezing at $-28^{\circ}C$ for 2 wk then thawing (A3F2), and freezing at $-28^{\circ}C$ for 2 wk, thawing then further aging at $2^{\circ}C$ for 3 wk (F2A3). Results: No significant interactions between different aging/freezing/thawing treatments and muscle type on all measurements were found. Postmortem aging, regardless of aging/freezing/thawing sequence, had no impact on color stability of frozen/thawed beef muscles (p<0.05). F2A3 resulted in higher purge loss than F2 and A3F2 treatments (p<0.05). A3F2 and F2A3 treatments resulted in lower shear force of beef muscles compared to F2 (p<0.05). Although there was no significant difference in glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activity, F2A3 had the highest ${\beta}-N-acetyl$ glucominidase (BNAG) activity in purge, but the lowest BNAG activity in muscle (p<0.05). GM muscle exhibited higher total color changes and purge loss, and lower GSH-Px activity than BF muscle. Conclusion: The results from this present study indicate that different combinations of aging/freezing/thawing sequence would result in considerable impacts on meat quality attributes, particularly thaw/purge loss and tenderness. Developing a novel freezing strategy combined with postmortem aging will be beneficial for the food/meat industry to maximize its positive impacts on tenderness, while minimizing thaw/purge loss of frozen/thawed meat.

This study investigated the effect of various freezing and thawing techniques on the quality of beef. Meat samples were frozen using natural convection freezing (NF), individual quick freezing (IQF), or cryogenic freezing (CF) techniques, followed by natural convection thawing (NCT) or running water thawing (RT). The meat was frozen until the core temperature reached $-12^{\circ}C$ and then stored at $-24^{\circ}C$, followed by thawing until the temperature reached $5^{\circ}C$. Quality parameters, such as the pH, water binding properties, CIE color, shear force, and microstructure of the beef were elucidated. Although the freezing and thawing combinations did not cause remarkable changes in the quality parameters, rapid freezing, in the order of CF, IQF, and NF, was found to minimize the quality deterioration. In the case of thawing methods, NCT was better than RT and the meat quality was influence on the thawing temperature rather than the thawing rate. Although the microstructure of the frozen beef exhibited an excessive loss of integrity after the freezing and thawing, it did not cause any remarkable change in the beef quality. Taken together, these results demonstrate that CF and NCT form the best combination for beef processing; however, IQF and NCT may have practical applications in the frozen food industry.

본 실험은 초고압 동결 및 해동기법이 돈육의 이화학적 특성에 미치는 효과를 규명하고자 시도하였다. 동결 및 해동처리 과정에서 가압에 따른 pH 증가 및 단백질 변성에 따른 보수력의 저하로 관찰되었지만, 초고압 동결 기법을 이용함으로써 효과적으로 해동 및 가열감량을 최소화할 수 있었다. 반면에 초고압 해동기법은 느린 해동속도에 기인한 얼음 재결정화로 해동육의 수율 측면에 영향을 미칠것으로 판단되었다. 따라서 초고압 동결처리에 의한 빠른 동결 및 빠른 해동처리를 통하여 돈육의 물리적 특성 저하를 최소화할 수 있을 것으로 간주되었다. 반면에 250 MPa의 압력은 돈육의 색도에 부정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

In order to examine the adhesion characteristics of road pavement according to environmental conditions, the freezing time of cement mortar and the adhesion performance between ice and pavement were evaluated depending on the presence or absence of polymer and water repellent. As a result of measuring the ice formation time, it was found that there was no delay when a polymer was added, but the complete freezing time was delayed when a water repellent was added. As a result of measuring the strength of ice adhesion, it was found that the bonding force between ice and the surface of the test body was greatly generated in the test body without water repellent. In the case of a test specimen to which a water repellent was added, it was found that the bonding strength between the test specimen surface and ice was reduced.

Concrete bond strength with steel re-bars depends on multiple factors including concrete-steel interface and mechanical properties of concrete. However, the hydration development of cementitious paste, and in turn the mechanical properties of concrete, are negatively affected by cold weather. This study aimed at exploring the concrete-steel bonding behavior in concrete cast and cured under freezing temperatures. Three concrete mixtures were cast and cured at -10 and -20℃. The mixtures were protected using conventional insulation blankets and a hybrid system consisting of insulation blankets and phase change materials. The mixtures comprised General Use cement, fly ash (20%), nano-silica (6%) and calcium nitrate-nitrite as a cold weather admixture system. The mixtures were tested in terms of internal temperature, compressive, tensile strengths, and modulus of elasticity. In addition, the bond strength between concrete and steel re-bars were evaluated by a pull-out test, while the quality of the interface between concrete and steel was assessed by thermal and microscopy studies. In addition, the internal heat evolution and force-slip relationship were modeled based on energy conservation and stress-strain relationships, respectively using three-dimensional (3D) finite-element software. The results showed the reliability of the proposed models to accurately predict concrete heat evolution as well as bond strength relative to experimental data. The hybrid protection system and nano-modified concrete mixtures produced good quality concrete-steel interface with adequate bond strength, without need for heating operations before casting and during curing under freezing temperatures down to -20℃.

The market size of home meal replacement (HMR) products has been gradually growing worldwide, even in Korea. In Korean HMR products, meat is the most important food ingredient compared with rice and vegetables. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate changes in physiochemical and sensory aspects of beef under different preparation processes. For preparing four treatments, beef eye of round (ER) added with salt and sugar (treatment 1) and that without salt and sugar (treatment 2) were mixed with rice and frozen at $-50^{\circ}C$. Beef ER without salt and sugar was also topped onto the rice and frozen (treatment 3), and that was topped onto the rice and precooled before freezing (treatment 4). Physiochemical analyses included cooking and drip losses, shear force, color, salt soluble protein, and sensory attributes were tested. The results showed significantly higher drip loss and total loss in beef ER samples 1 and 2, which were mixed with rice, compared to beef ER samples 3 and 4, which were not mixed with rice. A significantly higher discoloration was also observed in beef ER samples 1 and 2, compared to that in samples 3 and 4. In the partial least squares regression (PLSR) analysis, beef ER sample 4 (precooled before freezing) was highly related to sensory attributes, such as flavor, overall acceptability, and juiciness, and far from non-preferred shear force. As a result, beef ER in HMR sample 4 was the most preferable to the sensory panel, and it had the most desirable physicochemical analysis outcomes.

본 실험은 압력 수준에 따른 PAF이 돈육의 이화학적 특성에 미치는 효과를 규명하고자 시도되었다. 비록 가압 수준기 증가에 따른 상전이 온도와 냉각온도간의 차이 감소에 기인하여 고압 하에서의 잠열 감소에 의한 동결 속도 증가의 효과는 얻을 수 없었지만, 육의 PAE 처리는 가압처리에서와 같이 보수력 및 육즙 손실을 대기압 동결 처리보다 더욱 현저하게 줄일 수 있었다. 그러나 지나친 가압은 육 단백질간의 aggregation 및 심한 변성에 기인하여 육의 연도를 저하시키는 결과를 초래하였고, 또한 소비자의 구매와 직접적으로 관련된 색도에 악영향을 끼친 것으로 판단되었다. 그러나 상대적으로 낮은 압력 범위 조건에서의 PAF 처리는 동결 시 고압 처리에 의한 육색 저하를 최소화 할 수 있었고, 전단력 측면에서도 대기압 동결처리와 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않을 뿐만 아니라 보수력을 향상시킴으로써 동결처리보다 더 큰 잠재적인 이점을 보였고, 이 부분에 대한 더 많은 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구는 냉동 편마늘의 냉동 조건과 냉동 저장기간에 따른 품질특성변화를 분석하였다. $-20^{\circ}C$ 완만냉동(SAF20), $-40^{\circ}C$ 완만냉동(SAF40) 및 $-40^{\circ}C$ 침지식 냉동(ILF40)으로 마늘을 동결한 후 $-20^{\circ}C$에서 7개월간 저장하면서 이화학적 및 미생물학적 특성을 분석하였다. 냉동곡선결과 최대빙결 정생성대를 통과한 시간이 SAF20은 1,600분, SAF40은 40분, ILF40은 10분 이내로 나타나 ILF40의 냉동속도가 가장 빨랐다. 드립로스 역시 ILF40에서 저장기간 동안 최소 0.00%, 최대 0.23%를 나타내어 다른 냉동조건에 비해 가장 낮게 나타났고(p<0.05) 저장기간 동안 일정한 수준으로 유지되었다. 모든 냉동조건에서 15일 냉동 후 해동 시 신선마늘 대비 L 값은 감소, a 값은 증가, b 값은 변화가 없었으며 색차값의 변화는 SAF40에서 가장 작게 나타난 반면 SAF20에서 크게 나타났다. 절단강도는 모든 냉동조건에서 15일 냉동 후 해동 시 신선마늘 대비 증가하였고(p<0.05) ILF40에서 신선마늘의 절단강도와 가장 유사했으며 저장기간 동안 일정한 수준으로 유지되었다. 일반세균은 모든 냉동 조건에서 15일 냉동 후 해동 시 신선마늘 대비 증가하였지만(p<0.05) ILF40에서 일반세균수가 가장 적었으며 저장기간 동안 모든 냉동조건에서 감소하였다(p<0.05). pH는 모든 냉동조건에서 15일 냉동 후 해동 시 신선마늘 대비 증가하였고(p<0.05) ILF40에서 신선마늘과 가장 유사하였으며 저장기간 동안 모든 냉동조건에서 감소하는 것으로 나타났다(p<0.05). 총 유기산 함량은 모든 냉동조건에서 15일 냉동후 해동 시 신선마늘 대비 증가하였으며(p<0.05) 저장기간 동안 ILF40에서 다른 냉동조건 대비 함량변화가 일정했다. 피루브산과 알리신 함량은 모든 냉동조건에서 15일 냉동 후 해동 시 신선마늘 대비 급격히 감소하였지만(p<0.05) ILF40에서 그 함량이 가장 높았으며 저장기간 동안 모든 냉동조건에서 큰 변화 없이 일정했다. 이상의 결과 냉동 편마늘의 품질변화에 영향을 주는 요인은 냉동저장기간보다 냉동조건임을 확인하였고 신선마늘의 품질을 장기간 안정하게 유지할 수 있는 냉동방법으로 침지식 냉동이 가장 효과적일 것으로 판단된다.
