포도는 전세계에서 널리 소비되는 과실로 포도 과피에 존재하는 천연색소인 flavonoid는 혈중 콜레스테롤 함량 저하, 항알러지성, 항암성, 항바이러스성, 항염성의 생리적 기능이 있다고 알려져 있다. 최근에 들어와 이들 과실주스 가공에 열처리를 최소화하는 살균방법으로 자연 그대로의 영양성분, 맛과 향기 개선을 위한 초고압 처리에 관한 연구가 폭넓게 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구는 주스에서 문제가 되고 있는 ethanolic spoilage 균주인 S. cerevisiae의 초고압 살균 효과와 세포 구조적 형태를 연구하였다. 1.2$\times$$10^{6}$ cfu/ml의 S. cerevisiae를 포도주스에 접종하고 24시간 배양하여 멸균한 high barrier주머니에 20m1씩 넣고 2$0^{\circ}C$ 에서 200-600 MPa 조건으로 0-20분 동안 초고압 장치로 실시하였다. 생균수는 YM agar로 poured 방법으로 실시하였으며 200 MPa에서 5, 10, 15, 20분 후의 생균수는 각각 2.2$\times$$10^{7}$ , 4.5$\times$$10^4$, 2.8$\times$$10^4$, 9.8$\times$$10^3$, 9.5$\times$$10^3$cfu/ml로 tailing 현상을 관찰하였고, 400 MPa에서 5분 후 급격하게 감소하였다. S. cerevisiae의 사멸속도는 초고압 처리가 높을수록 증가했으며 세포 손상도는 압력과 처리시간이 길수록 증가하였다. 이들 조건에 따른 효모 세포의 구조적 관찰을 scanning electron microscopy와 electron microscopy로 하였다. S. cerevisiae 세포는 압력에 의한 pinhole, surface roughening을 발견하였고, 세포 내부의 세포질, 액포, 핵 손상과 세포질 물질들이 압력에 의하여 세포벽으로 이동하여 내부가 비어있는 현상을 관찰하였다.

Although aquaculture production rates grown over the years, aquatic animal diseases occur every year which causes substantial economic losses. When an aquatic animal is infected with an aquatic animal pathogen it is either incinerated or buried according to the aquatic life disease control act. Although these methods prevent the spread of disease, it is not environment friendly. Here, we developed an aquatic animal rendering equipment for disposal of fish waste which is environment-friendly and efficient. Also, fertilizer components of fish waste were evaluated value for recycling. The mobile rendering equipment was designed for field operation and/or high temperature and pressure system, oil and water separator, and shredding drying apparatus. During the experiment (July-2016 to November-2016), a total of 53,824 kg fish waste was collected, and 29,216 kg compost of rendering by-product was made. Also, compost made from viral (Viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus) infected fish did not reflect any detectable pathogen. The concentration of nitrogen, phosphorus, and organic matter in the fish waste compost were 2.17%, 26.98%, and 92.44%, respectively. The results suggest that fish waste used in this study was decomposed efficiently as per the official standard for fertilizer product. This equipment can be useful for efficient inactivation of the aquatic animal pathogenic agents and recycling of the fish waste in an environment-friendly manner.

Atmospheric-pressure nonthermal corona discharge plasma was applied to the sterilization of biologically contaminated scoria powder. Escherichia coli (E. coli) culture solution was uniformly sprayed throughout the scoria powder for artificial inoculation, which was well mixed to ensure uniformity of the batch. The effect of the key parameters such as discharge power, treatment time, type of gas and electrode distance on the sterilization efficiency was examined and discussed. The experimental results revealed that the plasma treatment was very effective for the sterilization of scoria powder; 5-min treatment at 15 W could sterilize more than 99.9% of E. coli inoculated into the scoria powder. Increasing the discharge power, treatment time or applied voltage led to an improvement in the sterilization efficiency. The effect of type of gas on the sterilization efficiency was in order of oxygen, synthetic air (20% oxygen) and nitrogen from high to low. The inactivation of E. coli under the influence of corona discharge plasma can be explained by cell membrane erosion or etching resulting from UV and reactive oxidizing species (oxygen radical, OH radical, ozone, etc.), and the destruction of E. coli cell membrane by the physical action of numerous corona streamers.

Foxtail Millet Takju was treated with heat ($65^{\circ}C/30\;min$) (HT) or high hydrostatic pressure ($27^{\circ}C/400\;MPa/10\;min$) (PT), and changes in microbial count, enzyme activity, and quality were determined during 30-day storage at 10 and $25^{\circ}C$. Total viable cellcount remained constant, while lactic acid bacteria and yeast were not detected in HT and PT Takjus. Relative activities of ${\alpha}-amylase$ in PT Takju significantly increased by 169.7% at 3 days storage, then decreased to 137.7 and 68.7% at 10 and $25^{\circ}C$, respectively, at 30 days. Relative activities of glucoamylase in HT Takju showed reversible change, and were 36.5 and 54.3% at $10\;and\;25^{\circ}C$, respectively, at 30 days storage. Activities in PT Takju increased with storage period, 158.2% at 30 days storage at $10^{\circ}C$. Titratable acidity in untreated Takju increased, while those in HT and PT Takjus remained almost constant during 30 days storage. Reducing sugar content in untreated Takju showed no change, while that in HT Takju increased gradually, reaching 2.9% at 30 days, whereas that in PT increased sharply after 3 days, reaching 4.8% at 30 days. Sensory evaluation showed sourness and bitterness were low, and sweetness and overall acceptance were high in PT Takju after 30 days storage at $10^{\circ}C$.

A study on the amino acid composition of raw frozen krill, and krill solubles manufactured in forms of paste and powder has been carried out. The raw frozen krill was thawed, chopped, mixed and homogenized with same amount of water. The mixture was autolyzed or hydrolyzed by tile addition of $0.2\%$ pronase-p, a commercial proteolytic enzyme, to the weight of the raw frozen krill at $45^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours. After a thermal inactivation of enzymes at $95^{\circ}C$ for 15 minutes, the autolysate and the hydrolysate were centrifuged and filtered through gauzes, respectively, and then tile lipid layer in the supernatant was removed, The autolysate and the hydrolysate were finally concentrated under reduced atmospheric pressure in a rotary vacuum evaporator at $45^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour to produce the krill solubles in form of paste. The powdered krill solubles were prepared by the addition of $5\%$ starch to the autolysate and hydrolysate and by means of concentration in the rotary vacuum evaporator at $45^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes and a forced air drying at $58^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours with a air velocity of 3m/sec. Among the amino acids in raw frozen krill, glutamic acid, lysine, and aspartic acid showed high values in quantity and then followed leucine, alanine, arginine, glycine and proline. The qnantity of histidine was very small and that of cystine was only in trace. The krill solubles in forms of paste and powder prepared by autolysis and hydrolysis with pronase-p revealed almost the same patterns in amino acid composition as in raw frozen krill. In case of free amino acids, a large quantity of it in raw frozen krill consisted of lysine, arginine, proline, alanine and leucine. The quantities of cystine, histidine and glutamic acid were, in contrast, very small. In the soluble krill paste prepared by autolysis, lysine, leucine, threonine and alanine existed in large quantities among the free amino acids and cystine, aspartic acid and histidine existed in small quantities. The contents of almost all of the free amino acids ill soluble krill paste perpared by hydrolysis with pronase-p were increased slightly as compared with those in soluble krill paste prepared by autolysis. In this product, the contents of cystine, histidine and serine were very low and lysine, leucine, arginine and proline were the dominant group in quantities among the free amino acids. The krill solubles in forms of paste and powder were not inferior to whole egg in the view point of its essential amino acid composition.
