다진 생강의 저장성을 향상시키고자 다진 생강에 citric acid $0.5{\sim}2.0%$처리는 초기 pH $3.1{\sim}4.6$으로 8개월 후에도 대체로 양호하였으며, citric acid 0.5% 처리의 polyphenol oxidase (PPO) 활성은 NaCl 5.0%나 ascorbic acid 0.5%처리보다 낮았고 항산화제인 ascorbic acid는 citric acid에 비하여 쉽게 변질되었다. NaCl(5.0%)+citric acid(0.5%)나 NaCl(5.0%)+citric acid(1.0%)의 혼합처리로 NaCl 5.0% 단일처리에 비하여 pH 및 PPO활성이 낮아 졌으며 12개월 경과 후에도 양호하였고, NaCl(5.0%)+ascorbic acid(0.5%)처리는 NaCl(5.0%)+citric acid(0.5%)처리와 비교하여 pH에는 큰 차이가 없었으며 4개월째 PPO활성이 급격히 증가하여 무처리보다도 높았으나 변질되지 않았다. 또한 NaCl+citric acid+ascorbic acid의 세 가지 혼합처리 중 5.0%+0.1%+0.1%, 5.0%+0.25%+0.1%, 5.0%+0.5%+0.1% 등의 처리는 8개월 저장시까지 대체로 양호하였으나 그 이후에는 변색이나 이취가 발생되어 장기보존에는 5.0%+0.5%+0.25%처리가 보다 효과적 이었다.

The efficacy of citric acid-aqueous chlorine dioxide ($ClO_2$) treatment of radish seeds artificially contaminated with Escherichia coli was studied. Radish seeds were inoculated with E. coli. Following inoculation, samples were stored at $4^{\circ}C$ and soaked in citric acid or aqueous $ClO_2$ for 10 min. The treatment of radish seeds using 200 ppm aqueous $ClO_2$ solution caused a 1.5 log CFU/g reduction in the population of E. coli. Compared to the aqueous $ClO_2$ treatment, soaking radish seeds in 2.0% citric acid solution for 10 min was more effective in reducing E. coli populations on radish seeds. The efficacy of spray application of chlorine (100 ppm) or 0.5% citric acid to eliminate E. coli during the germination and growth of radish was investigated. Radish seed inoculated with E. coli was treated for the duration of the growth period. Although it resulted in a decrease in the E. coli population, the spray application of 100 ppm chlorine during the growth period was not significantly effective. In contrast, the combined treatment of seeds using 200 ppm aqueous $ClO_2$ and treatment of sprouts with 0.5% citric acid solution during sprout growth was hardly effective in eliminating E. coli.

본 연구에서는 수삼을 식품에 쓰이는 산화 방지제인 ascorbic acid와 citric acid로 처리하여 홍삼을 제조한 후 활성성분인 페놀화합물과 진세노사이드의 추출물내 함량 변화를 HPLC를 이용하여 살펴보았다. 분석결과 citric acid 처리 홍삼에서 esculetin과 quercetin 함량이 무처리 홍삼에 비하여 각각 3.5 배, 2.0 배 증가하였고 ginsenoside 함량 역시 citric acid 처리시의 Rg$_3$, Rd, Rh$_2$ 증가량이 ascobic acid 처리시에 비하여 높았다. 따라서 인삼추출물의 이들 특정활성성분 강화를 위하여는 citric acid 처리가 효과적인 것으로 판단된다.

Effects of chemical treatment with a citric acid solution or ozonated water on microbiological changes in lettuce and cabbage during storage were studied. Fresh lettuce and cabbage samples were cut into small pieces and treated by soaking in either ozonated water or a citric acid solution. After treatment, populations of total bacteria, yeast and mold, and E. coli were determined. Numbers of microorganisms increased during storage, but ozonated water and citric acid treatments retarded the increase in microbial growth. Among treatments, 1 % citric acid treatment was the most effective in terms of microbiological change and inhibition of polyphenoloxidase (PPO). For lettuce, citric acid treatment decreased the microbial growth overall by 1.5 log CFU/g and inhibited the PPO activity by 80%. These results indicate that chemical-treated lettuce and cabbage retained a better quality than those of the control during storage.

메밀 새싹의 유통 중 품질유지를 목적으로 유기산 용액과 염소수에 침지한 후 플라스틱 필름봉투에 밀봉하여 $5^{\circ}C$에 저장하면서 여러 가지 품질인자의 변화를 살펴보았다. 미생물학적 측면에서 총균수와 대장균군수의 측정 결과 0.5% citric acid, 0.05% acetic acid의 단독 및 병용처리가 다른 처리구에 비해 미생물 증식제어에 효과적이었다. 수분함량이나 가용성 고형분함량의 경우 6일 저장 중 의미 있는 변화를 관찰할 수 없었다. 색 변화에서도 Hunter L값과 Hunter b값은 처리구별로 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않았으나, Hunter a값의 경우 저장기간이 경과함에 따라 ascorbic acid 및 citric acid 처리구의 변화가 가장 적게 나타났다. 관능평가에 있어서도 저장 중 ascorbic acid 및 citric acid 처리구가 다른 것에 비해 변색, 시듦, 종합적 외관품질 항목 모두에서 유의적으로 구분되어 관능적 품질이 우수한 것으로 평가되었다. 결과적으로 본 연구에서 사용한 유기산 가운데 citric acid를 전처리 침지용액으로 적용할 경우 메밀 새싹의 유통 중 품질유지에 매우 긍정적인 효과가 있음을 확인하였다.

새싹 채소 중 무순의 위생적인 재배 조건을 설정하기 위하여 종자세척 및 관수로서 이산화염소수, citric acid 및 glycerin의 적용 효과를 조사하였다. 무 종자에 인위적으로 오염시키기 위하여 Salmonella typhimurium은 실험실 조건에서 배양하였으며, 무 종자를 S. typhimurium 현탁액에 침지시켜 균수를 약 $10^6\;log\;CFU/g$로 조절하였다. 무 종자에 대한 세척 효과는 이산화염소수 및 citric acid의 단독처리보다 병행처리시 더욱 우수한 효과를 나타내어, 이산화염 소수 200 ppm과 citric acid 2%의 병행처리시 2.89 log CFU/g 의 감소효과를 나타내었다. 또한, glycerol 0.5%/citric acid 2.0% 처리의 경우 3.46 log CFU/g, glycerol 0.5%/이산화염 소수 200 ppm 처리는 2.14 log CFU/g의 S. typhimurium 균의 감소를 나타내어, glycerol 단독 처리보다 병행처리구가 더 우수한 효과를 나타내었다. 무 종자의 발아 및 성정에 따른 균수 감소는 비록 종자에 대한 처리효과가 유의적으로 있었음에도 불구하고 새싹 성장 후 균수의 차이는 미미하였다.

This study was carried out not only to identify the optimum concentrations of sulfur powder and citric acid treated for improving arsenic absorption of Pteris multifuda known as hyperaccumulator of arsenic, but also to develop arsenic purification model in the forest soil. After applying sulfur powder (0, 30, 45, $60g{\cdot}m^{-2}$) and citric acid (0, 200, 400, $800g{\cdot}m^{-2}$) in the forest soil contaminated with heavy metals, P. multifuda was planted and cultivated for 16 weeks. And then the growth and arsenic contents of plants were analyzed. In the result of research, the growth of P. mulifuda, except plant width, cultivated in soils treated with sulfur powder and citric acid was relatively lower than control. The accumulated amount of arsenic in aerial parts of P. multifuda ($1822.2mg{\cdot}kg^{-1}$) cultivated in soils treated with $200g{\cdot}m^{-2}$ citric acid was improved 62.5% against the control. And the accumulated amount of arsenic per 1 $m^2$ ($20.1mg{\cdot}m^{-2}$) was the greatest in $200g{\cdot}m^{-2}$ citric acid treatment. Translocation rate (TR) was higher in all acid treatment compare to control, and was the best in $200g{\cdot}m^{-2}$ citric acid treatment (0.95) especially. It showed that the arsenic absorbed in underground parts was transferred fast to aerial parts. Therefore, $200g{\cdot}m^{-2}$ citric acid treatment in the soil is recommended for arsenic purification using P. multifuda.

사골로부터 칼슘과 인의 용출량을 증가시킴과 동시에 칼슘의 흡수에 효과적인 비율로 칼슘과 인의 함량을 조절하기 위하여 초산과 구연산의 혼합효과를 조사하였다. 사골에 구연산과 초산을 각각 첨가하여 추출물을 제조한 결과, 구연산은 사골로부터 칼슘과 인을 유사하게 용출시키나, 초산은 인보다 칼슘을 선택적으로 용출시켰다. 초산 0.2 %와 구연산 0.1 %를 혼합하여 제조한 추출물은 초산 0.2 %의 결과에 비하여 칼슘의 용출량은 약 30 %($26.89{\rightarrow}34.22mg$) 증가하였으나 인의 용출량은 약 400 % ($3.57{\rightarrow}18.45mg$) 증가하였으며, 칼슘과 인의 비율은 7.53에서 1.85로 크게 개선되었다. 관능평가에서 맛과 전체적인 기호도는 0.2 % 초산+0.1 % 구연산을 첨가하여 제조한 시료가 증류수와 0.2 % 초산을 사용한 시료보다 우수하였다.

In order to enhance bioactive functionalities of ginseng, an acid impregnation processing was applied as a pre-treatment in producing red ginseng. Acid impregnation studies were conducted, and acids (ascorbic, malic, and citric acid) were selected. The optimal concentration of each acid was investigated in this study in terms of ginsenoside contents. The most concerned ginsenoside, $Rg_3$ was increased by ascorbic, malic, and citric acid pre-treated red ginseng up to 1 M acid concentration. In the case of ascorbic acid pre-treated red ginseng, $Rg_2$ concentration was increased depending on acid concentrations. Citric acid pre-treatment enhanced $Rg_2$, $Rg_3$, and $Rh_1+Rh_2$ formation in red ginseng. Therefore, ginsenoside patterns in red ginseng could be changed by acid impregnation pre-treatment depending on acid concentration and acid types. This research is expected to contribute to the development of the ginseng industry via new red ginseng products with selective and intensified functionality.

Accumulated Phosphate can be released by ligand exchange reaction of organic acids. The objective of this study was to evaluate effects of the organic acids on the availability of phosphate and the growth of crop in phosphate and salts accumulated soil. Soil samples were collected from farmer's plastic film house. Available phosphate and electrical conductivity of soil were $3,005mg\;kg^{-1}$ and $16.63mg\;kg^{-1}$ which were 6 and 8 times higher than the optimum range of soil for crop growth, respectively. Corns were cultivated in pots for 2 months. Treatments were no treatment (control), phosphate fertilizer (P), citric acid (CA) 1, 5, 10 mM, and oxalic acid (OA) 1, 5, 10 mM. Water soluble phosphorus, available phosphate, corn growth and uptake were determined after cultivation. Results showed that organic acids increased water soluble phosphorus and available phosphate. For the level of 10 mM, the order of effectiveness of organic acids for water soluble P was citric acid (44%) > oxalic acid (32%). Height and dry weight of corns were increased significantly by the treatment of citric acid 1 and 5 mM. Also, corn absorbed more phosphorus, nitrogen, potassium, calcium and magnesium in the treatment of citric acid 1 mM than these of other treatments. Even though phosphate availability of soil was enhanced by addition of citric acid 10 mM, the growth of corns decreased because high concentration of citric acid caused salt damage by increasement of electrical conductivity. Thus, the citric acid of 1 mM has the potential to improve the availability of phosphate and the healthy growth of corns.
