  • A slightly modified method of Rashid and Potts(1980) to determine riboflavin in milk in which lead acetate was used as a precipitant was employed in tile present study to test applicability to determine that of fish as well. The lead acetate method was found to be sensitive, simple, inexpensive and rapid compared to the modified A.O.A.C. method by Cordon et al. (1979). But higher riboflavin values were obtained in this study than those reported so far. The riboflavin contents of 9 white fleshed fishes were in the range of $0.29\~0.48mg$ per 100g fresh sample. Linear regression equation Y=125.70X+0.71 (R=0.9993) was obtained for the calculation of riboflavin content in the white fleshed fish. Y is the concentration of riboflavin in the final solution to be chocked its OD at fluorometer and X is the dial reading of fluorometer. The stability of riboflavin as the freshness changes during icing storage$(at\;0^{\circ}C)$ was studied with file fish. During the initial stage of storage, the riboflavin content was found to by increased by $14\%$, but the difference was not statistically significant (p>0.05). K-value and VBN-value were increased along with storage time, but Proximate composition was not changed significantly during entire storage of 18 days.

  • The effect of entrapping isothiocyanates extracted from horseradish root by microencapsulation on the shelf life of Myeongran jeotgal was evaluated. The total viable cell count of Myeongran jeotgal reached $10^7CFU/g$ (initial decomposition level) on days 43 and 45 of treatment with 1.0% and 2.0% microcapsules (4.0 mg/mL), respectively, compared with day 21 of storage at $5^{\circ}C$ as the control treatment. The proteolytic bacterial counts of Myeongran jeotgal treated with 1.0% and 2.0% microcapsules were $2.0{\times}10^5$ and $9.5{\times}10^4CFU/g$, respectively, with 2 and 3 log reductions compared with the control count ($1.1{\times}10^7CFU/g$) on day 33 of storage at $5^{\circ}C$. The total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) level reached 30.0 mg% (initial decomposition level) on days 47 and 48 of treatment with 1.0% and 2.0% microcapsules, respectively, compared with day 33 of storage at $5^{\circ}C$ as the control. Based on the sensory evaluation, the freshness of Myeongran jeotgal treated with 1.0% microcapsules was best compared with the other treatments. Based on the total viable cell count, TVB-N and sensory evaluation, the shelf life of Myeongran jeotgal treated with 1.0% microcapsules was extended by 22, 16 and 15 days, respectively, compared with the control at $5^{\circ}C$.

  • This study investigated vegetable buying behavior with the subjects of 250 housewives living in Gyeongju. According to the results, they usually buy the following vegetables by order of frequency: cucumbers (152 times), hot peppers (142 times), lettuce (140 times), and spinach (134 times). The intake frequency of fresh vegetables was 2 to 3 times per week as 50.0% responded so. All respondents considered freshness most importantly when buying vegetables regardless of age. They usually buy vegetables at traditional markets, and they think the markets are suitable for buying fresh vegetables regardless of age. And the result of analyzing relation among vegetable's vitamin C and the colors or kinds of vegetables selected by age was not statistically significant. About the improvements to use vegetables, respondents in the 20's chose useful information, ones in the 30's to 40's said diverse recipes, ones in the 50's went for the quality improvement, and ones in the 60's or more emphasized stable prices. They answered that they received nutrition information of vegetables mainly from TV or magazines, newspapers, and mass media whereas subjects in the 60's or more said they got it from neighbors or friends. For housewives to get and practice nutritional knowledge, it is necessary to develop recipes in consideration of nutritional balance and convenience and provide them with constant education of nutrition through lifelong education facilities.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics and antioxidant activity on consequent storage based on the temperature of new cultivar dew-drop pine mushroom (Lentinula edodes GNA01). Methods: Dewdrop Pine Mushroom were prepared under different storeage temperature (4, 10, $20^{\circ}C$). Results: Weight loss and hardness showed the least reduction rate when it was stored at $4^{\circ}C$ (p<0.05). The color value changed to dark brown at all storage temperatures during the storage period. When it was stored at $4^{\circ}C$, it maintained its initial color for a longer period than at different storage temperatures. With respect to the change in its viable cell count, the cells proliferated to less than 3.0 log CFU/g up to Ed: Please review the change. The earlier part was difficult to understand 2.83 log CFU/g until 15 days of storage at $4^{\circ}C$. On measuring the antioxidant activity of this mushroom, the polyphenol content was maintained without a large change until 9 days of storage at $4^{\circ}C$. The electron-donating action maintained high antioxidant activity, accounting for 81.99% until 12 days of storage from 83.08% during the initial storage at $4^{\circ}C$. When it was stored at $4^{\circ}C$, the sensory characteristics received the highest score among all items, such as appeaance, color, flavor and general preference, etc. Concolusion: In summary, new Cultivar Dewdrop Pine Mushroom (Lentinula edodes GNA01) can maintain its commercial value until the 12th day of $4^{\circ}C$ storage.

  • This study compares and analyzes the operation costs of traditional and direct delivery strategies considering carbon emissions. For the determination of minimum operation costs and order quantity, we use the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) model, which is the proper method for calculate the operation costs by logistics strategy. Using the classical EOQ model, we expand the EOQ model considering carbon emissions and domestic logistics environment. We conduct an empirical study on two agri-food logistics strategies under limitation of the carbon emissions using the expanded EOQ model. From the results of the empirical study, we find that the operation costs of direct delivery strategy are about 50% lower than those of the traditional strategy. Economic order quantity is also smaller than that of the traditional strategy. These results indicate that agri-food products can be transported quickly and freshly under direct delivery strategy. Consequently, considering carbon emissions, direct delivery logistics strategy are analyzed to have more positive effect on economic and environmental issues than existing logistics strategy. It is judged that direct strategy will also increase the freshness of agricultural products.

  • This study examined changes in physicochemical indicators [K-value, lipid peroxide, and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS)] in mackerel muscle during refrigerated storage at $4^{\circ}C$. Analyses were conducted every 3 days for 15 days. First, we visually observed changes in the mackerel. After 3 days, there were rapid changes in color and a rotten smell developed. The K-value of mackerel muscle was 4.21, 19.00, 42.13, 51.71, 71.19, and 80.34% on days 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, and 15, respectively; lipid peroxide level also increased, to 5.34, 5.44, 6.59, 7.29, 8.32, and 8.71 nmol/mL, respectively. TBARS increased from day 0 to 6, but did not change significantly after day 6 (0.98, 1.74, 2.73, 2.09, 1.86, and 1.93 mg Eq. malondialdehyde (MDA)/kg, respectively). The changes in K-value and lipid peroxide level demonstrated a loss of value as fresh food after day 6. The freshness of the stored mackerel had decreased by day 6 and mackerel stored for 9 days was less marketable.
