  • Due to the rise of customer's alertness about fresh foods to health, in the past few years, the consumption of fresh food has increased sturdily. The use of gas scavengers is the most appropriate packaging technologies for fresh, fresh-cut produces and in ready to eat products. The gas absorber/scavenger has ability to protect or stabilize the wanted properties and shelf life of food. The success of gas absorbers in food depends on many parameters such as types of foods, storage temperature, relative humidity, initial gas concentration, and the characteristics of package materials. In this review article, we focus on the most recent research trends in gas scavenging systems used in food packaging, future trends. Intense research from industry and engineers remains important to the development of gas scavenging package that fulfill consumer requirements, enhance product quality, and offer environmentally friendly design and cost-effective application.

  • 편의와 fresh-like quality를 선호하는 소비 경향에 맞추어 가공한 fresh-cut사과의 선도 연장을 위한 저해제를 탐색하였다. 실험에 사용된 사과는 박피하여 속심을 제거한 사과를 8조각으로 절단하여 저해제에 3분간 침지한 후 물기를 제거하고 각각 LDPE 포장지에 포장하여 실온에서 저장하면서 colorimeter와 rheometer를 이용하여 색도와 물성을 측정하였다. 저해제로는 1% ascorbic acid, citric acid, NaCl, MgCl$_2$, CaCl$_2$, KCl, CaSO$_4$, MgSO$_4$, $Na_2$SO$_4$, oxalic acid, calcium lactate, calcium citrate를 사용하였으며 천연저해제로는 건칡, 맥문동, 목향, Rhubarb, 당귀, 오약, 시체, 지각, 천문동, 청피, 계피, 구기자, 당귀, 진피, 감초, 녹차, 후추 등을 열수추출하여 사용하였다. 물리적인 변화는 시간이 경과함에 따라 감소하는 추세를 보였으며 일부 건조로 인해 texture의 증가를 나타내기도 했다. 처리에 따른 물리적인 변화로는 CaCl$_2$, NaSO$_4$, Cl, 시금치를 처리하였을 때 그 변화가 가장 작았으나 시금치의 경우 시금치로 인한 사과의 색변화로 관능적으로 좋지 않았다. 한약재는 목향, 당귀, 지각, 계피를 처리하였을 때 물리적인 변화가 가장 작았으나 시금치와 마찬가지로 처리 초기에 한약재 자체의 향과 색으로 인하여 관능적으로 좋지 못한 결과를 나타냈다. 갈변 정도를 나타내는 ΔE의 변화는 KCl과 CaCl$_2$, CaSO$_4$를 처리한 구에서 변화가 가장 작았으며 한약재를 처리하였을 경우 당귀, 천문동을 처리한 구에서 효과를 보였다. oxalic acid는 갈변저해에는 효과적이었으나 시간이 경과함에 따라 수분의 용출이 증가하였으며 물성의 변화도 컸다. 또한 ZnCl$_2$를 처리한 구에서는 이취 발생과 수분 용출이 컸으며 색의 변화도 컸다.

  • The purpose of this study was to assess the sugars contents of home meal replacement (HMR) products currently sold in Korea. This study surveyed and examined the sugars contents in 835 popular HMRs (294 ready-to-eat foods; RTE, 499 ready-to-cook foods; RTC, 42 fresh-cut vegetables; FCV) through the nutrition labels. The average price, weight and energy content of 835 HMR products were 3,917.5 Korean won, 336.0 g, and 522.7 kcal, respectively. The sugars content per product was significantly higher in the RTCs (13.4 g) and RTEs (10.3 g) than that in the FCVs (4.2 g) (P<0.001), and the percentage of energy from sugars was 9.7% for the RTEs, 10.2% for the RTCs, and 8.7% for the FCVs without any significant difference. The sugars contents of 9 RTE types were in the order of side dishes (34.3 g), sunsik (22.5 g) and hamburgers (12.1 g) per package. The percentage of energy from sugars was highest in side dishes (28.1%), followed by kimchi (24.9%), sunsik (17.2%), and hamburgers (10.6%). Among 14 RTC types, the sugars contents were in the order of hot dogs (52.9 g), tteokbokki (30.4 g) and noodles (21.2 g) per package. The percentage of energy from sugars was the highest at 22.9% for sauces, followed by side dishes (17.3%), porridges (14.4%), instant stews (14.3%), and hot dogs (13.1%). Strategies and practices are needed to reduce the sugars contents of HMR producers and the sugars intakes of HMR consumers.

  • To produce fresh-cut fruit products of high quality, the combined effects of postharvest calcium and heat treatment on Tsugaru apple were examined. Whole fruits were treated for 20 min at three different conditions: dipping in 3% $CaCl_2$ solution at $45^{\circ}C$ or ambient temperature, or in heated water at $45^{\circ}C$. The calcium content of the apples dipped in $CaCl_2$ solution at $45^{\circ}C$ was higher than that of the control and the non-heated calcium dipping. The fruits with calcium and heat treatment showed the same pattern of respiration rates as the control did during storage. The browning degree of the apple slices increased to approximately 3% after one-day storage, but no significant difference was observed between the treated and untreated apples. The fruits with $CaCl_2$ solution dipping at $45^{\circ}C$ had higher firmness than those with calcium dipping or heat treatment alone.

  • This study was performed to assess the microbiological quality and safety of microgreen sampled from harvesting farms and food processing plant in Korea. The samples were analyzed for total viable counts, coliforms, Enterobacteriaceae, Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp., Listeria monocytogenes, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Bacillus cereus, and Staphylococcus aureus. Total viable counts were highly contaminated in samples collected from farms (7.7~8.2 log CFU/g) and the final products (5.8~7.8 log CFU/g), respectively. B. cereus was detected less than 100 CFU/g, which was satisfied with Korean standards (<1,000 CFU/g) of fresh-cut produce. A predictive model was developed for the changes of total viable counts in microgreens during storage at 5~35℃. The predictive models were developed using the Baranyi model for the primary model and the square root model for the secondary model. The results obtained in this study can be useful to develop the safety management options along the food chain, including fresh-cut produce storage and distribution.

  • Objective: In most retail centers, primal pork cuts for sale are usually prepared into retail-ready slices and overwrapped with air-permeable plastic film. Also, meat of Korean native black pig (KNP) is reputed for its superior quality, however, its shelf life during retail display has not been studied. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate shelf life of prepackaged retail-ready KNP belly and shoulder butt slices during refrigerated display. Methods: Bellies and shoulder butt obtained at 24 h post-mortem from finishing KNP were used. Each belly or shoulder butt was manually cut into 1.5 cm-thick slices. The slices in each cut type were randomly taken and placed on white foam tray (2 slices/tray) overwrapped with polyvinyl chloride film. The retail-ready packages were then placed in a retail display cabinet at 4℃. Shelf life and sensory quality of the samples were evaluated on day 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, and 15 of display. Results: The shoulder butt reached the upper limit (20 mg/100 g) of volatile basic nitrogen for fresh meat after 9 days while, the belly remained within this limit throughout the display time (15 days). Both the cuts reached a thiobarbituric acid reactive substances level of above 0.5 mg malondialdehyde/kg after 9 days. The a* (redness) values remained unchanged during first 9 days in both cuts (p>0.05). After 9 days, off-flavor was not found in either cut, but higher off-flavor intensity was found in shoulder butt after 12 days. The shoulder butt was unacceptable for overall eating quality after 12 days while, belly still was acceptable after 12 days. Conclusion: The belly showed a longer shelf life compared to the shoulder butt, and a shelf life of 9 and 12 days is recommended for the prepackaged retail-ready KNP shoulder butt and belly slices, respectively.

  • 본 연구는 수확시기와 같은 수확 전 요인이 수확 후 신선편이 결구상추의 품질과 미생물 수에 미치는 영향을 구명하기 위하여 수행하였다. 신선편이 가공업체에서 사용하는 결구상추를 5, 6, 7, 10, 12월에 수확하여 관행적인 방법으로 가공한 뒤 필름에 포장하고 $5^{\circ}C$에서 9일 동안 저장하면서 품질 조사를 하였다. 미생물 측정을 위한 샘플은 각 단계별(수확, 수송, 가공전, 절단, 1차-세척, 2차-세척, 저장 후 3, 6, 9일)로 수집되었다. 실험 결과 하우스에서 재배되어 5, 10월에 수확된 결구상추는 신선편이 가공 후 포장백 내부의 $O_2$ 농도가 낮고 $CO_2$는 매우 높았으며, 제품의 전해질 누출이 높게 나타났다. 반면 노지에서 재배된 6, 7월 수확 및 겨울철 하우스재배인 12월에 수확한 원료 는 비교적 낮은 $CO_2$, 전해질 누출 및 갈변을 나타내었다. 원료상태의 미생물수는 7월(6.76 log)에 가장 높았고, 신선편이 가공 후 저장중의 미생물 증식은 5월 시료에서 가장 높게 나타났다. 이상의 결과로부터 신선편이 결구상추를 고온, 저습조건의 노지에서 재배되어 6월 상순에 수확한 원료를 사용한 경우 품질과 미생물적 안전성이 모두 우수하였다. 반면, 하우스에서 재배되어 10월에 수확한 결구상추를 원료로 사용한 경우 가공 전과 후의 미생물적 안전성은 모두 우수하였으나, 이취가 빨리 발생하여 품질특성이 나쁘게 나타났다. 따라서 연중 고품질의 신선편이 결구상추 생산을 위해서는 품질과 안전성을 동시에 제어하고 원료의 환경에 따른 품질유지 기간을 달리 설정할 필요가 있는 것으로 생각된다.

  • Increasement of total cost during distribution chain requires packaging standardization to reduce extra handling and delays at transshipment point. In Korea, high valued agricultural products to export are most often shipped by air freight. Fresh flowers, in particular, the need to set package standard for air palletization are strongly recommended. This study tried to find an optimum standard dimensions for export packages. After extensive research on combinations of various flower dimensions, package dimensions and pallet sizes, we found that 96 inches pallet was most adequate for international air freight. Based on the results, new 40 standard package dimensions were introduced and stacking efficiencies were calculated.

  • The purpose of this study was to analyse factors related to Home Meal Replacement (HMR) use among university students and to determine the dietary quality according to its consumption. A survey on the consumption of HMR and Nutrition Quotient (NQ) was conducted from September to November 2021. The study included 232 university students (88 males, 144 females) from Chungcheong. The proportion of consumption at least once a week was 71.55% for ready-to-eat foods, 55.60% for ready-to-cook foods, 40.95% for fresh-cut products, and 21.12% for meal-kits. The preference ratings were as follows: ready-to-eat foods, 3.77 out of 5 points, meal-kits, 3.53 points, fresh-cut products, 3.52 points, and ready-to-cook foods, 3.45 points. In terms of satisfaction, convenience (4.06 out of 5 points), taste (3.71 points), variety (3.67 points), and food hygiene (3.62 points) were rated the highest. The scores in the moderation NQ were significantly lower in the groups that consumed ready-to-eat foods (p=0.0002), ready-to-cook foods (p=0.0002), and meal-kits (p=0.0068) at least once a week compared to the groups that consumed them less than once a week. In conclusion, the results will serve as basic data for nutrition education for proper consumption of HMR among university students.
