Turkey thigh meats with skin were ground twice through a 3-mm plate and patties were prepared. Patties were cooked using 5 different methods(oven cooking, pan frying, oil deep frying, boiling, and microwaving) to an internal temperature of 85${\sim}90^{\circ}C$ and packaged in either oxygen permeable PVC zipperbags or oxygen impermeable PVDC bags. The samples were analyzed for thiobarbituric acid reactive substances(TBARS) and cholesterol oxidation products(COPs) after storage at $4^{\circ}C$. The TBARS of cooked meat increased during the storage regardless of cooking methods, vacuum packaged thigh meat produced less TBARS and COPs than the aerobically packaged samples. At the beginning of storage, aerobically packaged meat cooked by boiling method produced higher TBARS than that of others. However, the TBARS of microwaved meat with vacuum packaging increased rapidly after 3 days of storage at $4^{\circ}C$. The amount of total COPs in cooked thigh meat increased linearly with storage time. The level of total COPs in aerobically packaged cooked meat was higher than the vacuum-packaged meat. Microwave produced higher level of total COPs in meat than other cooking methods during storage.

Radish sprout was packaged with different materials. PO and PC are both hard case PET(polyethylenterephthalate) and has 6 holes and no holes, respectively. LO, LM and LH are anti-fogging OPP(oriented polypropylene) film which have different oxygen transmission rates. The oxygen concentration and weight loss rate in PO packaged were higher than any other packages. The soluble solid contents of radish sprouts packaged with PO showed much increased during storage. The pH increased during storage but pH of the samples packaged with high oxygen transmission rate was relatively low. Radish sprouts in LO had lower b value as compared to other samples. The result of ${\Delta}E$ value was generally high during storage period, especially at 7 days storage. The contents of total polyphenolic compounds and free radical scavenging activity of radish sprout packaged with PC and LO were high. Total aerobic bacteria of sprouts in PC and LO was much higher than others. The result of organoleptic qualities showed that the radish sprouts packaged with LM had a good score in terms of overall acceptability until 7 days storage.

Packaged meal manufacturing establishments in Seoul city and Kyungkido province were assessed in terms of the sanitary conditions and practices, time and temperature, and microbiological quality. Sanitary check-lists were developed to evaluate the sanitary condition of sampled packaged meal manufacturing establishments. Microbiological tests on.food containers, equipments, and foods in various phases of product flow were done. The results of the study are summarized as follows; 1) Sanitary condition of kitchen.and sanitary practices of employees in.large and medium establishments were evaluated as the some improvement required in order to meet all standards. But sanitary practices of employees in small establishments were evaluated as the unsatisfactory state with negligence or ignorance of safe practice. 2) The microbiological quality of basic ingredients and food materials after pre-preparation were poor. 3) Time and temperature data indicated that phases of holding ingredients at room temperature after cooking, assembly and packaging before delivery were critical. 4) Microbiological test results for food containers, equipments indicated that sanitary conditions of stainless steel ware, knife, wiping clothes and cutting board should be improved promptly. 5) Critical control points identified were ingredients, pre-preparation, Holding, and assembly and packaging. 6) Guidelines were suggested for effective quality control of packaged meals production.

We carried out this experiment on the purpose to investigate the quality properties of aseptic-packaged cooked rice by cultivars in 2006. Brown rice was milled for white rice to 89.6% weight of it. Based on cluster analysis of acceptance of sensory evaluation, eleven rice cultivars of 29 cultivars had superior palatability. Whiteness(r=0.42, p<5%), lightness(r=0.39, p<5%), Toyo value(r=0.35, p<10%), and moisture content(r=0.33, p<10%) of milled rice were correlated positively with acceptability. Protein content(r=-0.40, p<5%), expansion rate(r=-0.68, p<1%) and water absorption rate(r=-0.42, p<5%) of milled rice, and yellowness(r=-0.45, p<5%) of aseptic-packaged cooked rice were negatively correlated. In sensory evaluation, correlation coefficients of taste and texture with acceptability were higher than those of appearance and flavor. During storage, hardness and cohesiveness of aseptic-packaged cooked rice before reheating were increased and decreased, but those after reheating had no difference based on storage period and cultivar. On the contrary, whiteness of reheated aseptic-packaged cooked rice with no distinct differences before reheating was decreased during storage. There were no significant differences of texture property, color characteristics and moisture contents by cultivar during storage.

A various aseptic packaged cooked rice prepared In Korean rice was developed for extending shelf-life at room temperature. Data of proximate composition showed no significant difference between cultivars except moisture of cooked rice. The optimal condition of added water content for aseptic packaged cooked rice was 1.3 times of rice while 1.5 times for cooked rice and microwave heating. Hardeness of cooked rice was decreased in order of Dongjin, Odae, Chuchung, Kyaehwa, Ilpoom. Sensory evaluation results showed that Ilpoom had a best result while Odae for storage time (7 days).

Microbiological quality of packaged meals (Dosirak) was assessed in three operations under the both conditions of actual food processing and simulated time-temperature. Time and temperature data indicated that all the phases after cooking were critical for microbiological quality control. Microbiological test results by simulated time-temperature conditions revealed that microbiological quality of packaged meals decreased as the storage time and temperature increase. Delivery practices without refrigeration in summer and hot-holding below $60^{\circ}C$ in supermarket were crucial in microbiological quality control.

The objective of this study was to investigate comparison of physicochemical, microbiological, and sensory characteristics of Hanwoo eye of round by various packaging methods [wrapped packaging (WP), modified atmosphere packaging (MAP), vacuum packaging (VP) with three different vacuum films, and vacuum skin packaging (VSP)] at a small scale. Packaged Hanwoo beef samples were stored in refrigerated conditions ($4{\pm}1^{\circ}C$) for 28 days. Packaged beef was sampled on days 0, 7, 14, 21, and 28. Physicochemical [pH, surface color, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), and volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) values], microbiological, and sensory analysis of packaged beef samples were performed. VP and VSP samples showed low TBARS and VBN values, and pH and surface color did not change substantially during the 28-day period. For VSP, total viable bacteria, psychrotrophic bacteria, lactic acid bacteria, and coliform counts were lower than those for other packaging systems. Salmonella spp. and Escherichia coli O157:H7 were not detected in any packaged beef samples. A sensory analysis showed that the scores for appearance, flavor, color, and overall acceptability did not change significantly until day 7. In total, VSP was effective with respect to significantly higher $a^*$ values, physicochemical stability, and microbial safety in Hanwoo packaging (p<0.05).

We investigated microbial and quality changes in wrap-packaged dry-aged beef after completion of aging and subsequent storage in a refrigerator. After 28 days of dry aging (temperature, $4^{\circ}C$; RH, approximately 75%; air flow velocity, 2.5 m/s), sirloins were trimmed, wrap-packaged, and stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for 7 days. Analyses of microbial growth, pH, volatile basic nitrogen (VBN), 2-thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance (TABRS), and instrumental color, myoglobin, and sensory evaluation were conducted on days 0, 3, 5, and 7. The results show that the number of total aerobic bacteria (TAB), yeast, and lactic acid bacteria increased with an increase in storage days, whereas no change in the growth of mold was observed during 7 days of storage. Based on the legal standard for TAB count, the estimated shelf-life of wrap-packaged dry-aged beef was predicted to be less than 12.2 days. However, the shelflife should be less than 6.3 days, considering the result of sensory quality (odor, taste, and overall acceptance). No significant change in visible appearance was also observed during 7 days of storage. The results suggest that the present quality indicators for meat spoilage (pH, VBN, and TBARS) should be re-considered for dry-aged beef, as its characteristics are different from those of fresh and/or wet-aged beef.

Frozen, prefried chicken breast meat patties and nuggets were obtained from a commercial plant. The samples were packaged with and without vacuum in pouches and stored at $2-4^{\circ}C$. The quality of these products was measured at 4-day intervals for a period of 28 days. Vacuum packaging did not inhibit or reduce psychrotrophic microbial growth of the patty and nugget samples upon refrigerated storage. Log total fungal counts for vacuum packaged samples remained stationary after reaching a log number of 3.5, while a continuous increase was observed for nonvacuum packaged samples. Vacuum packaging did not prevent an increase of TBA values. Free fatty acid values of the samples were low and remained low throughout the observation period. A continuous darkening of the Internal portions of the samples was observed.
