A comparison was made of the effect of different packaging materials on storability of mixed sprout vegetables (alfalfa, broccoli, cabbage, radish, and red radish) stored at $8^{\circ}C$. They were packaged by several kinds of films that were 50 fm thickness low-density polyethylene film (PE 50), 50 fm thickness polypropylene film (PP 50), $50{\mu}m$ thickness ceramic film (CE 50), $25{\mu}m$ thickness ceramic film (CE 25), $10\sim13{\mu}m$ thickness polyethylene film (wrap), and polyethylene terephthalate box with ventilation hole (box). The fresh weight of mixed sprouts packaged with different materials decreased below to 2% except box packages that decreased around 7% compared with initial weight. The atmospheres that were developed inside the different materials during storage differed significantly. The carbon dioxide and oxygen concentration of packages were kept properly with 5% in CE 25, but the PE 50 and CE 50 treatments showed higher carbon dioxide and lower oxygen concentration. So the off-flavor of mixed sprouts was more severe in the PE 50 and CE 50 treatment. The ethylene concentration of packages showed lowest in box treatment, followed by PP 50, wrap and CE 25 treatment. The overall quality of mixed sprouts was lower in PE 50 and CE 50 than CE 25 treatment after 10 days storage, supposed to be resulted from highest ethylene concentration and lowest oxygen concentration. Conclusionally, the CE 25 film that showed below 1% fresh weight loss, 5% carbon dioxide, 5% oxygen and below 4 ppm ethylene concentration in package may be a proper packaging material for mixed sprout vegetables.

The shelf-life of fresh mushrooms is notably limited because their browning, texture change, and decay are too fast after immediately harvest. Especially, the best management for extending golden needle mushroom's shelf-life is modified atmosphere packaging under pressure vacuum at cold storage. In this study, three types of films, $20{\mu}m$ polyethylene+polypropylene (PE+PP), oriented polypropylene (OPP), and low density polyethylene (LDPE) were tested to extend the shelf-life of golden needle mushrooms. Mushrooms were packed under pressure vacuum and stored at $10^{\circ}C$ for 2 weeks. The golden mushrooms in LDPE film as a commercial packaging, were highly perishable and immediately proceed deterioration as browning, elongation, fluctuation of respiratory quotient (RQ) and softening within 7 days after packaging. On the other hand, the mushrooms in OPP and PE+PP film shown that shelf-life were extend to 14 days from 7 days, causing delay breakup of vacuum and maintenance of color, length, and RQ during storage. The breakup of vacuum in PE+PP film was faster few days than OPP film packaging. This present study indicated that the golden needle mushrooms by OPP packaging under pressure vacuum treatment might be extended the shelf-life until approximately 14 days during cold storage.

A printable time temperature integrator (TTI) consisting of oxygen indicator and cover films with various oxygen permeability was developed. The printing ink contained methylene blue (oxygen indicator) which changed in color during storage. $TiO_2$ and glycerol for UV-activation of TTI and zein and ethanol for printing performance were also contained in the printing ink. The cover film on the ink was employed to control the color change rate and temperature dependency (Arrhenius activation energy, $E_a$) by using the different films (PE, PET, OPP, and LLDPE). The film properties were varied by annealing. TTI was produced by silk screen printing. As a result, the color change rates were different for the cover films, being the highest in TTI with LLDPE, followed by OPP, PE, and PET. The rate decreased with increase in the cover film thickness. The $E_a$ was the highest in TTI with LLDPE, followed by OPP, PE, and PET. The $E_a$ did not change with the cover film thickness. The annealed PVC and PET film were lower in oxygen permeability than the unannealed ones, indicating the lower color change rate.

국내 시설원예 재배면적은 1980년대 이후로 급격히 증가했고, 시설채소 재배면적의 99%는 비닐하우스가 차지한다. 이러한 비닐하우스 재배로 채소로 사계절 생산이 가능해졌고, 국민들은 하우스에서 생산된 채소를 어느 때나 구입할 수 있게 되었다. 이러한 시설채소 재배에 피복되는 연질 필름의 소재는 폴리에틸렌(PE) 필름, 에틸렌아세트산비닐(EVA) 필름, 폴리올레핀(PO) 필름 등으로 나누어지고, 이러한 열가성수지에 각종 첨가제를 추가해 보온성, 유적성, 내후성을 향상시킨다. 최근에는 연동하우스와 하우스 피복비용의 증가로 인해 내구성 있는 장기사용 필름에 관한 관심이 높아지고 있다.

We investigated the effect of PE film thickness on the modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) deastringency of 'Sanggamdungsi' (Diospyros kaki cv.) astringent persimmon at room temperature ($25^{\circ}C$) and low temperature ($-1^{\circ}C$). The fruits were individually packaged with PE film of which the thickness is 60, 80, 100, 115 or $130{\mu}m$ and stored at room or low ($-1^{\circ}C$) temperature. At room temperature, firmness shows the highest value (23.3-26.5) at $100{\mu}m$ thickness. Top flesh browning and decay was monitored at 20 days after storage, and peel blackening and style-end softening was negligible at optimal thickness. Therefore, optimal film thickness of deastringency at room temperature is $80-100{\mu}m$. At this thickness, the astringency was removed after 5 days and the fruits can be distributed until 10 days after the MAP. At low ($-1^{\circ}C$) temperature, firmness was maintained regardless of film thickness. However, the firmness is higher as the film is thicker. Top flesh browning and decay was not occurred even after 90 days after storage. Peel blackening and style-end softening was monitored at 90 days after storage. Off-flavor was monitored at 115 and $130{\mu}m$ thickness. Therefore, optimal film thickness of deastringency at low ($-1^{\circ}C$) temperature is $80-100{\mu}m$. At this thickness, the astringency was removed after 50 days and the fruits can be distributed until 80 days after the MAP.

수축포장은 완구, 식품, 잡화 등 불규칙한 형상의 상품을 타이트하게 포장하여 상품의 가치를 높게 하기 위해 주로 사용되고 있다. 또한 여러 개의 상품을 한번에 포장함으로써 포장비 절감과 운반중 진동이나 충격으로부터 상품을 보호하는 효과를 위해서도 흔히 쓰인다. 수축포장의 특성에 따라 수축필름도 달라지는데 여기서는 PE, PP, PET 수축필름에 대해 살펴본다.

Hydroponic strawberry culture system is increasing annually. Most of strawberry farmers use mulched bed in hydroponic culture and strawberry plants were transplanted in early September. After transplanting, Fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. fragariae and twospotted spider mite (TSSM), Tetranychus urticae, can increase their occurrence under high temperature condition. Therefore, we conducted for comparison occurrence of Fusarium wilt and TSSM on mulched with green polyethylene film and non-mulched bed. Occurrence of Fusarium wilt on mulched bed was started from early October and more increase than non-mulched bed. Damage rate of TSSM on mulched bed was shown higher than non-mulched bed. Temperature of substrate in mulched bed increased than non-mulched bed, but relative humidity near plants was decreased. As a result, use of non-mulched bed should be effective for reducing of Fusarium wilt and TSSM on strawberry plants.

This study was carried out to obtain basic information on cultivation of Curcuma longa L. in southern part of Korea. The results were summaried as follows. Mulching of both transparent polyethylene film and black polyethylene film improved the soil characters such as soil porosity and soil moisture content. The rate of emergency after winter was increased by mulching. Growth of Curcuma longa L. was accelerated by mulching of transparent polyethylene film and black polyethylene film mulched.
