  • This study was performed to evaluate the effects of various levels of mungbean flour (MF) (0-2.4%) on the quality characteristics of pork model sausages (PMS) in experiment 1 and also select the optimum level of MF to enhance the water retention and gelling properties of low-salt PMS (LSPMS) with or without microbial transglutaminase (MTGase) in experiment 2. In experiment 1, the addition of MF did not affect pH, chemical compositions (fat and moisture contents), color values, and functional properties (expressible moisture, EM (%) and cooking yield, CY (%)) of PMS. However, the addition of MF increased the chewiness of PMS and hardness if the mungbean flour at the level of more than 1.2% was incorporated. Since the interaction between the microbial transglutaminase (MTGase) treatment and MF level was not significant (p>0.05), data were pooled by different factors (MTGase treatment and MF level) in experiment 2. MF improved the water binding ability and textural springiness of LSPMS. On the other hand, MTGase treatment decreased the pH and cooking yield (%) of LSPMS, but increased most textural properties. In conclusion, the addition of MF could enhance the water retention and textural properties of PMS and LSPMS, regardless of MTGase, when it was added to over 1.2%. Based on these results, mungbean protein may interact with MTGase on the low-salt comminuted meat systems. Therefore, further study might be needed to understand the mechanisms of interaction between MTGase and functional components induced from MF.

  • Objective: This study investigated the association of enzyme-producing microbes and their enzymes with starch and hemicellulose degradation during fermentation of total mixed ration (TMR) silage. Methods: The TMRs were prepared with soybean curd residue, alfalfa hay (ATMR) or Leymus chinensis hay (LTMR), corn meal, soybean meal, vitamin-mineral supplements, and salt at a ratio of 25:40:30:4:0.5:0.5 on a dry matter basis. Laboratory-scale bag silos were randomly opened after 1, 3, 7, 14, 28, and 56 days of ensiling and subjected to analyses of fermentation quality, carbohydrates loss, microbial amylase and hemicellulase activities, succession of dominant amylolytic or hemicellulolytic microbes, and their microbial and enzymatic properties. Results: Both ATMR and LTMR silages were well preserved, with low pH and high lactic acid concentrations. In addition to the substantial loss of water soluble carbohydrates, loss of starch and hemicellulose was also observed in both TMR silages with prolonged ensiling. The microbial amylase activity remained detectable throughout the ensiling in both TMR silages, whereas the microbial hemicellulase activity progressively decreased until it was inactive at day 14 post-ensiling in both TMR silages. During the early stage of fermentation, the main amylase-producing microbes were Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (B. amyloliquefaciens), B. cereus, B. licheniformis, and B. subtilis in ATMR silage and B. flexus, B. licheniformis, and Paenibacillus xylanexedens (P. xylanexedens) in LTMR silage, whereas Enterococcus faecium was closely associated with starch hydrolysis at the later stage of fermentation in both TMR silages. B. amyloliquefaciens, B. licheniformis, and B. subtilis and B. licheniformis, B. pumilus, and P. xylanexedens were the main source of microbial hemicellulase during the early stage of fermentation in ATMR and LTMR silages, respectively. Conclusion: The microbial amylase contributes to starch hydrolysis during the ensiling process in both TMR silages, whereas the microbial hemicellulase participates in the hemicellulose degradation only at the early stage of ensiling.

  • Thawing is very important in tuna canning because it affects the yield and quality of the canned tuna, and productivity. The effects of vacuum thawing on the quality, yield, and thawing times of frozen skipjack were compared with conventional water immersion thawing. The time required to thaw frozen skipjack tuna (weight 2.5-3.0 kg) from $-10^{\circ}C$ to $-2^{\circ}C$ was 75, 60, and 37 min at a pressure of 17, 23, and 31 mmHg, respectively, corresponding to temperatures of 20, 25, and $30^{\circ}C$. The thawing time decreased with increasing pressure. Vacuum thawing shorten the thawing time by 58-80% compared with water immersion thawing at $20^{\circ}C$, and there was less difference between the core and skin temperatures than with water immersion thawing. No significant change in pH or histamine was observed according to thawing method, while the volatile basic nitrogen (VBN), trimethylamine (TMA), and K value were lower with vacuum thawing than water immersion thawing. Based on these results, we believe that vacuum thawing minimizes the biochemical and microbial changes that occur while thawing frozen skipjack tuna.

  • 본 연구는 경기도 중소하천에서 하상의 부착미생물군집의 시간에 따른 생장 변화와 부착미생물군집의 성장에 따른 불소의 제거 효율을 파악하기 위해 수행하였다. 방류수가 유입되는 지점인 P1과 그 곳에서 약 2 km 유하한 하류 지점인 P2에서 12주 동안의 현장 모니터링을 실시하고, 조사 지점의 수질과 부착미생물군집의 생체량 분석을 진행하였다. 부착미생물군집의 성장량은 7차 조사 시점까지 증가하다 이후 탈리현상이 발생하는 것으로 관찰되었으며, 부착미생물군집의 성장에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 유량, 유속, 영양물질(질소, 인) 등으로 조사되었다. 한편, 부착미생물군집 체내의 불소 함유량 또한 7차 조사 시기까지 증가하다 8차 시점부터 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 이는 부착미생물군집의 탈리현상에 의해 불소의 함유량 또한 감소하였음을 사사한다. 이를 통해 하천 관리의 방안으로서 부착미생물군집의 활용법에 대한 평가 및 관리에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 부착미생물군집을 활용한 기법의 적용 시에는 부착미생물군집의 성장에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 요인에 대한 기초 조사 및 탈리 시점에 따른 부착판 교체 방안 등이 포함되어야할 것으로 사료된다.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate water quality through a field survey at six floor fountain sites. The floor fountain facilities were designed and operated in such a way that tap water was stored in a water tank and recycled repeatedly. The water tank was cleaned once or twice per week in the summer. The number of facility users was low during the day due to sweltering heat, but up to 40 people, mainly children, were using them around 8 pm. Since the operation time was as short as 30 minutes, it is considered necessary to extend it for at least one hour for the number of users. As a result of the water quality test of the reservoir tank prior to operation after cleaning, it was measured to be within drinking water quality standards at the six facilities. As a result of the water quality test after use, ammonia nitrogen was measured to be 1.45 mg/L at Site IV. This exceeded the drinking water quality standard of 0.5 mg/L. In the case of turbidity, two cases exceed at 7.38 and 4.52 NTU when applying 4 NTU as the water quality standard for waterscape facilities. Twenty-eight cases exceed the standard of drinking water quality. The result of microbiological tests, at five sites excepting Site I, where disinfectant was injected, was that the maximum total colony count was 180,000 CFU/mL, total coliforms was 2,100,000 CFU/100 mL, fecal coliforms was 4,600 CFU/100 mL, Escherichia coli was 170 MPN/100 mL and Enterococcus was 100 CFU/100 mL. This exceeded the water quality standards of drinking water. Children are very likely to inhale because the water spews from below and falls from above, so it is necessary to apply water quality standards for ammonia nitrogen, turbidity and microbes. Current floor fountain facilities are highly susceptible to disease caused by microbial contamination because of water cycling and reuse, so it is necessary to change the water every day, clean the water tank, and perform chlorination. Therefore, it is necessary to inject calcium hypochlorite according to the free chlorine water quality standard of swimming pools with a different water tank capacity. In addition, facilities should be improved to prevent the reuse of water by installing the water tank at a separate location.

  • This study aimed to determine the suitable point of sale and consumption of different quality grade (QG) Hanwoo short loin during aging period, based on physicochemical, sensory, and microbiological quality. Short loins obtained from the carcasses of 13 Hanwoo steers and 2 bulls with 5 different QGs (1++, 1+, 1, 2, and 3) were analyzed over 28 d. QG and aging time had significant effect on water holding capacity, color, shear force, total volatile basic nitrogen (TVBN) content, and sensory traits. Higher QG groups generally exhibited a lower shear force, nucleotide content, and water holding capacity, and higher $L^*$, $a^*$, and $b^*$ values. Acceptable tenderness (shear force <5.4 kg) in QG 1++, 1+, 1, and 2 was achieved on days 7, 14, 16, and 18, respectively, and QG 3 showed a shear force of 6.8 kg, even after 28 d. Regardless of QG, TVBN content below threshold levels (20-30 mg%) was observed throughout the 28 d aging period, while total plate counts above 7 Log CFU/g were seen at 21 d. In conclusion, it is recommended that Hanwoo beef with QG 1++, 1+, and intermediate QG (1 and 2) should be sold or consumed between 7 and 21, 14 and 21, 16 and 21 d, respectively. Beef with QG 3 should be sold or consumed within 21 d, based on microbial growth, even though it has not achieved desirable tenderness. For this reason, an additional tenderizing process is recommended before this beef is ready for consumption.

  • In this study, chlorine dose at water storage tank was predicted to meet the recommended guideline for free chlorine residual in drinking water distribution system, using EPANET which is a computer program that performs extended Period simulation of hydraulic and water quality behavior within pressurized pipe networks. The results may be summarized as follows. The decay of chlorine residual by season varied considerably in the following order; in summer ($25^{\circ}C$) > spring and fall (15$^{\circ}C$) > winter (5$^{\circ}C$). For re-chlorination at water storage tank by season, season-varying chlorine dose was required at its maximum of 1.00 mg/l in summer and minimum of 0.40 mg/l in winter as free chlorine residual. The decay of chlorine residual through out the networks increased with water age spent by a parcel of water in the network except for some points with low water demand. In conclusion, the season-varying chlorine dose as well as the monitoring of water quality parameters at the some points which showed high decay of chlorine residual may be necessary to deliver the safe drinking water.

  • 본 연구에서는 철원 샘통과 그 일대의 지하수 및 지표수의 지구화학 및 미생물 군집 특성을 분석하였다. 2022년 12월 15일 철원 샘통 5개, 지하수 3개 그리고 지표수 2개, 총 10개 지점에서 야외조사를 수행하였다. 수화학분석 결과 샘통과 지표수는 모두 Ca-HCO3 유형에 도시되었으며, 지하수 한 지점(CSG3)을 제외한 나머지 지점은 모두 Na-HCO3 유형에 도시되었다. 또한 모든 지점은 같은 기상수의 기원으로 물암석 반응이 우세하게 영향을 준 것으로 보인다. 라돈 농도 분석 결과 지표수는 1,000 Bq/m3 이하, 샘통은 1,000~10,000 Bq/m3, 지하수는 1,000~1,000,000 Bq/m3의 농도 값을 보였다. 미생물 군집 구조 분석 결과 문(phylum) 비율 중 가장 우점종은 Proteobacteria, Planctomyceta, Verrucomicrobia, Acidobacteria, Actinomycetota 순으로 나타났다. 비계량적 다차원 척도법 모델링(NMDS)에서는 수온, pH, Si가 현장의 토착미생물과 밀접한 연관성을 보였다. NMDS와 CCA 결과에서 샘통에 영향을 미치는 주요 환경적 요소는 온도, Mg, Si로 나타나며, 그 환경적인 영향과 관련된 주요 미생물은 Acidobacteria와 Proteobacteria 중 Pseudomonas brenneri이다. 수화학 및 미생물 군집 분석 모두 샘통과 지하수 CSG3 지점에서 유사한 결과를 보였으며, 현무암 대수층의 영향을 받은 것으로 추정된다.

  • 기후변화로 인한 지표수 자원의 손실에 대비하기 위해 지하수 자원에 대한 관심이 대두되고 있다. 지하수 오염에 대한 모니터링 및 평가뿐 아니라 지하수 자원 관리를 위해 대수층 미생물 군집에 대한 이해가 필요하다. 대수층에서 미생물은 지하수에 부유하는 것보다 대부분이 대수층 퇴적토 입자 표면에 부착해서 서식한다. 하지만 대수층 퇴적토 시료 채취가 쉽지 않으므로 대부분의 대수층 미생물 군집 연구는 관정으로부터 채취한 지하수 시료의 부유 세포를 이용하였다. 오염된 대수층에서 미생물 군집에 대한 연구는 비교적 많으나, 오염되지 않은 대수층에서의 미생물 다양성과 수질개선을 위한 그들의 역할에 대한 정보는 여전히 부족한 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 대수층 지하수 내에 존재하는 세균의 생태와 군집 구조에 관해 기술하였다. 지금까지 보고된 연구에 의하면 오염되지 않은 대수층 지하수 미생물 군집은 대부분 Proteobacteria가 우세한 것으로 나타났다. 이들은 대수층 내의 기질(광물, 유기물 등)의 농도나 분포, 지하수의 성상, 인간의 활동 등에 영향을 받는다. 오염되지 않은 대수층 지하수 미생물 군집에 관한 연구는 지하수의 수질 개선에 관련된 생지화학적 과정을 더 잘 이해하기 위해 중요하며, 또한 대수층 오염에 따른 군집 변화를 모니터링 하기 위한 기초 자료로 이용될 수 있다.
