This study was carried out investigate hygienic conditions of domestic packing plant for export and the shelf-life by Japanese standards. vacuum packaged chilled port loins provided by five packers(A, B, C, D and E) were transported to Japan in the same condition, Four packers(A, B, C adn d) produced the samples as hygienic as possible and one packer produced loins in the traditional hygienic condition, In TTC(2,3,5-triphenyl tetrazolium chloride) test all samples showed the negative reaction from the date of the quarantine(14 days after slaughtering) to 50 days The numbers of total plate count(TPC) of A, B, C and D packers that were below 108CFU/g until 50 days were accepted by Japanese Standards but TPC of E packer was over 107CFU/g at 30 days. VBN values increased sig-nificantly(P<0.01) in samples of A,B and D packers in the samples of C packer and E packer at 5% and 0.1% level respectively. The pH values of the vacuum packaged chilled pork for export at 14 days after slaughtering were 5.43∼6.00 In sensory evaluation, A, B, C and D packers which improved hygi-enic condition produced the products with good color and appearance. low drip until 40 days storage at $0^{\circ}C$ But as the storage time increase off-flavor occured at 40days in A and D packer and at 50days in B and C packer. In conclusion according to the above results of microbiological physicochemical and sensory evalution the edible periods of Korean vacuum package chilled porks may be estimated to 40∼50 days for the packers who improved hygienic condition and the shelf lives were calculated as 32∼40 days from edible period by a factor of 0.8(safety coefficient) while that of the pork from E packer which was produced in the traditional hygienic condition was estimated to 30 days after slaughtering at $0^{\circ}C$ Therefore the shelf-life of the pork of E packer would be only 24 days.

This study was conducted to establish the microbiological quality standards applying the HACCP system on sushi items of Japanese restaurant in Korea. The study evaluated hygienic conditions of kitchen and workers, pH time-temperature relationship, and microbial assessments during whole process of sushi making in 2001. Overall hygienic conditions were normal for both kitchen and for workers by 3 point scale, but hygienic controls against the cross-contamination were still needed. Each process of sushi making was performed under the risk of microbial contamination, since pH value of most of ingredients was over pH 4.6 and also production time(3.5~6 hrs) were long enough to cause problems. Microorganisms were high enough to cause foodborne illness ranged 8.0$\times$10$^2$~3.3$\times$10$^{6}$ CFU/g of TPC and 1.0$\times$10$^1$~1.6$\times$10$^3$CFU/g of coliforms, although TPC, coliforms and Staphylcoccus aureus were within the standard limits (TPC 10$^2$~10$^{6}$ CFU/g, coliforms 10$^3$CFU/g). However, Salmonella and Vibrio parahaemolyticus were not detected. High populations TPC and coliforms were also found in the cooks' hands and cooking utensils(TPC 10$^2$~10$^{6}$ CFU/100cm$^2$and Coliforms 10$^1$~10$^3$CFU/100cm$^2$). Based on the CCP decision tree analysis, the CCPs were the holding steps far six sushi production line except the tuna and the thawing step for tuna sushi. In conclusion, overall state of sushi production was fairly good but much improvement was still needed.

Objective: This study was carried out to investigate physicochemical properties, and antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of low-fat sausages (LFSs) covered with sodium alginate (SA) film alone and with powder film (TSA-film) formed by cross-linking cherry tomato powder (CTP) and SA with calcium chloride (CaCl₂). Methods: Sausages covered with the biodegradable film were assessed based on the measurement of pH, color (L^⋆, a^⋆, b^⋆), proximate analysis, expressive moisture (EM), texture profile analysis, total plate counts (TPC), violet red bile, and 2-Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) during storage under refrigeration. LFSs wrapped with TSA-film were compared with those wrapped with SA-film and without film (control) during storage at 10℃ for 35 days. Results: The LFSs covered with the mixed film had lower pH, lightness (L^⋆), EM%, TBARS, and TPC, but lower yellowness (b^⋆) and hardness values than those wrapped with TSA-film alone. Conclusion: Lipid oxidation and microbial growth was retarded in sausages covered with biodegradable films, especially multiple films as compared to single film, thereby resulting in extended shelf-life of the LFSs.

The main purpose of this study is to examine the different physicochemical properties of spray-dried products. The carrier agents and powders after the spray-drying process were analyzed for encapsulation yield, moisture content, color parameters, total polyphenol content (TPC), antioxidant capacity (AC), bulk density, flowability, wettability, hygroscopicity, water solubility index (WSI), particle size and microstructure. The spray-drying process was carried out with different carrier agents including maltodextrin (MD) and the combination of maltodextrin and gum arabic (MD-GA) with MA/GA ratio of 70/30, dried at the inlet/outlet air temperature of 160 ℃/70 ℃, 4 bar, airflow rate of 70 ㎥·h^-1 and feed flow rate of 750 mL·h^-1. The results showed that the different carrier agents have significant influences on the physicochemical properties of the powder produced by the spray-drying method. In there, while the values of recovery efficiency and flowability of spray-dried products from MD are higher than those of spray-dried products from MD-GA combination, the opposite is true for the values of TPC, AC, bulk density and wettability, whereas hygroscopicity and WSI values are equally represented in both products.

The study was conducted to establish hygienic standards of salad items for pizza restaurant located in Seoul by applying HACCP system during the summer of 2000. The study measured temperature, time, pH, Aw and microbial assessments. The hygienic conditions of the kitchen and workers were on the average(1.21, 1.0 out of 3 pts.), but some improvement should be made: separate use of trash can and leftover disposal, separate use of knives and cutting boards, habits for hand washing and wearing hygienic gloves. For salad production, all procedures were peformed under food safety danger zone ($5{\~}60^{\circ}C$). The ingredients were mostly above pH 5.0 and high in Aw($0.94{\~}0.99$). Microbial assessments for salad production revealed that TPC($1.8{\times}10^3{\~}1.0{\times}10^{10}CFU/g$) and coliforms($1.5{\times}10{\~}5.2{\times}10^5 CFU/g$) exceeded the standards by Solberg et al.(TPC: $10^6CFU/g$, coliforms: $10^3CFU/g$). S. aureus was not detected but Salmonella was found in three food items(egg, macaroni and macaroni salad). Moreover, the workers' hands contained 3.1 104 CFU/g of TPC and 4.2 102 CFU/g of S. aureus requiring further remedy since it exceeded the safety standards suggested by Harrigan and McCance (500 CFU/g of TPC per $100cm^2$ and 10 CFU/g of coliforms per $100cm^2$). According to the critical control point(CCP) decision tree analysis, vegetable receiving, vegetable holding, mixing, display on coleslaw, macaroni draining, display on macaroni salad, egg peeling & cutting, apple cutting, and display on salad bar were determined as CCPs. From the findings it would be suggested that purchase of Quality materials, short holding and display time, storing food at right temperature, using sanitary cooking utensils, and improvement of workers' food handing practices are needed to ensure the safe salad production in this specific pizza restaurant.

This study was conducted to investigate changes in pH, volatile basic nitrogen (VBN), thiobarbituric acid (TBA), $a^*$ (redness), shearing force, and microbial content (total plate count; TPC) in beef during freezing storage at -1, -5, and $-20^{\circ}C$ for 21 days. TPC as an effective quality indicator was used to identify the decay point by regression analysis. The pH, TBA values, and TPC significantly increased with storage at all tested temperatures (p<0.05). VBN significantly increased and shearing force significantly decreased with storage at -1 and $-5^{\circ}C$ (p<0.05). TPC showed significant correlation with temperature at $-1^{\circ}C\;(R^2=0.891)$, $-5^{\circ}C\;(R^2=0.856)$, and $-20^{\circ}C\;(R^2=0.444)$. The decay points at -1, -5, and $-20^{\circ}C$, were 27, 52, and 84 days, respectively. The results suggest that a freezing temperature of $-5^{\circ}C$ is effective for short-term storage of beef.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate changes in the quality characteristics of mackerel fish fillet under freezing storage conditions. The changes in product quality were determined by measuring pH, volatile basic nitrogen (VBN); thiobarbituric acid (TBA), lightness ($L^*$), redness ($a^*$), yellowness ($b^*$) values, shearing force, and microbiological evaluation (Total Plate Count, TPC) during 21 days of storage at -20, -5, and $-1^{\circ}C$, and their shelf-lives were established. TPC as an effective quality indicator was used to estimate the shelf-life via linear regression analysis. The TPC increased steadily with increasing storage periods at every temperature (p<0.05) and showed a significant relationship with temperature at $-1^{\circ}C$ (r=0.949), $-5^{\circ}C$ (r=0.919), and $-20^{\circ}C$ (r=0.905). Therefore, based on TPC, the shelf life of the mackerel fillet was noted to be 32 days when stored at $-1^{\circ}C$, more than 51 days when stored at $-5^{\circ}C$, and about 2 months when stored at $-20^{\circ}C$.

Recently, two formulas of sulgidduk added to pine needle juice (PNJ) with various physiological activities were developed for metabolic syndrome patients in our lab. According to previous studies, cooking may alter antioxidant properties by initiating destruction, release or transformation of antioxidant compounds contained in food. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare the antioxidant activities and antigenotixic effects of sulgidduk with/without PNJ and to note changes in these activities after cooking. The ingredients of sulgidduk was added on the basis of 100% rice flour as follows: conventional sulgidduk (S): 1.5% salt, 30.0% sugar; PNJ added to sulgidduk A (PS-A): 1.4% salt, 30.0% sugar, and 1.0% PNJ; PNJ added to sulgidduk B (PS-B): 1.5% salt, 21.4% sugar, and 1.4% PNJ. Ethanol and water extracts of sulgidduk were analyzed for the total phenolic content (TPC), DPPH radical scavenging activity (DPPH RSA), total radical-trapping antioxidant potential (TRAP), oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC), and antigenotoxic effect by comet assay. The ethanol extracts PS-A and PS-B showed higher TPC and antioxidant activities (DPPH RSA, TRAP, and ORAC) than did the S ethanol extract before cooking. The more PNJ was added, the higher TPC and anitoxidant activities were observed in sulgidduk (PS-A$200{\mu}M$ of $H_2O_2$. Taken together, this study suggests that sulgidduk added to 1.44% of pine needle juice may be a good option antioxidant and antigenotoxic source.
