Low-fat ground pork patties, LFGPP (<10% total fat) formulated with 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3 percent sodium alginate (SA) were processed and compositional, processing and sensory characteristics were compared with control patties containing 20% fat. The moisture content of raw and cooked LFGPP were significantly (p<0.05) higher than control patties because of greater amount of added water in the formulation. The cooking yield, moisture and fat retention also increased linearly in different treatments of LFGPP. The dimensional parameters such as gain in height, decrease in diameter and shrinkage were significantly (p<0.05) lower in LFGPP in comparison to control. Amongst the sensory attributes, flavour showed a declining trend with the increase in concentration of SA in LFGPP. However, low-fat patties with 0.1% SA rated similar to high-fat control. The lipid profile revealed 49.78 and 43.22% decrease in total lipids and cholesterol content respectively, compared to control. The calorie content was reduced significantly (p<0.05) in LFGPP. The texture profile of LFGPP with 0.1% SA was similar to that of high-fat control. The LFGPP remained stable without any appreciable loss of physico-chemical, microbiological and organoleptic quality during refrigerated storage ($4{{\pm}}1^{\circ}C$) for 21 and 35 days in aerobic and vacuum packaging respectively.

We investigated the effects of gamma irradiation on the microbiological, chemical and sensory qualities of bulgogi, a traditional Korean meat product. Gamma irradiation reduced the number of coliform bacteria and bacterial colonies counted in Salmonella-Shigella selective agar to a non-detectable level. Thermophillic microorganisms (mainly Bacillus spp.) in bolgogi refrigerated for 20 days were also significantly reduced by 3 log cycles by 2.5 to 7.5 kGy of irradiation, compared to the control. Electron donating ability and shear force of ready-to-cook bulgogi was not significantly affected by gamma irradiation. Irradiation increased the 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) value. The irradiated, raw, ready-to-cook bulgogi had significantly higher scores in color and appearance than those of non-irradiated controls from sensory evaluation. The overall acceptance of cooked bulgogi had higher scores in non-irradiated or 2.5 kGy-irradiated bulgogi than the 5.0- or 7.5-kGy irradiated counterparts. In conclusion, irradiation at 2.5 kGy is recommended as a method to improve shelf-life, safety, and to achieve acceptable quality of ready-to-cook bulgogi without any adverse changes in the sensory characteristics.

옹기토를 사용하여 옹기를 빚고 유약의 도포를 하지 않은 것, 한 면만 도포한 것, 양면 도포한 것 3가지 유형으로 기공율을 달리하여 옹기를 제작한 후 각각의 옹기에 고추장을 담아 4개월간 발효시키면서 고추장의 품질 변화를 측정하였다. 결과는 발효식품의 종류에 따라 기공율이 달라져야 한다는 결론을 얻을 수 있었다. 간장의 경우는 기공율이 아주 낮은 것이 좋은 품질을 얻을 수 있었으나, 고추장의 경우는 기공율이 너무 높거나, 너무 낮아도 제품에는 악영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 유약을 한 면 도포한 옹기가 효소활성이 높고, 미생물 균수도 높으며, 이로 인하여 아미노태 질소 함량이 높고, 유리아미노산 함양도 높으며, 핵산의 량도 높게 나타났다. 그리고 관능평가에서도 긍정적인 작용을 하는 것으로 나타났다.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of fresh ginseng on the physicochemical, microbiological and sensory properties of Seukbakjee during 45 days of fermentation. Seukbakjee with various levels(0, 2, 4, 6%) of fresh ginseng were fermented at $4^{\circ}$. During fermentation, the pH values were lowered in all Seukbakjee samples, however, those with fresh ginseng were a little higher than control Seukbakjee. Acidity increased continuously during the entire fermentation, in which those of added fresh ginseng increased less than control. As the concentration of fresh ginseng increased, the pH of Seukbakjee were increased. Saltiness was maintained at 1.37~2.62% levels during the whole fermentation. The degree of degradation of reducing sugar and free sugar was much delayed in Seukbakjee added with fresh ginseng. Total vitamin C content of Seukbakjee with fresh ginseng was higher than that of Seukbakjee without fresh ginseng. The number of total bacteria and lactic acid bacteria in Seukbakjee with fresh ginseng was higher than control during the entire fermentation period. In sensory evalution, Seukbakjee with 4% fresh ginseng was the best for taste and flavor. Seukbakjee with 2% fresh ginseng was the best for texture and overall acceptability. Above results suggest that the addition of fresh ginseng improves the quality of Seukbakjee.

Objective: To assess the potency of calcium propionate (CAP) used as silage additive, an experiment was carried out to evaluate the effect of CAP on the nitrogen transformation, fermentation quality and aerobic stability of alfalfa silages. Methods: Alfalfa was ensiled with four levels of CAP (5, 10, 15, and 20 g/kg of fresh weight [FW]) in laboratory silos for 30 days. After opening, the silages were analyzed for the chemical and microbiological characteristics, and subjected to an aerobic stability test. Results: The increasing proportion of CAP did not affect pH, lactic acid (LA) concentrations and yeast counts, while linearly decreased counts of enterobacteria (p = 0.029), molds (p<0.001) and clostridia (p<0.001), and concentrations of acetic acid (p<0.001), propionic acid (p<0.001), butyric acid (p<0.001), and ethanol (p = 0.007), and quadratically (p = 0.001) increased lactic acid bacteria counts. With increasing the proportion of CAP, the dry matter (DM) loss (p<0.001), free amino acid N (p<0.001), ammonia N (p = 0.004), and non-protein N (p<0.001) contents were linearly reduced, whereas DM (p = 0.048), water soluble carbohydrate (p<0.001) and peptide N (p<0.001) contents were linearly increased. The highest Flieg's point was found in CAP10 (75.9), represented the best fermentation quality. All silages treated with CAP improved aerobic stability as indicated by increased stable hours compared with control. Conclusion: The addition of CAP can suppress the undesirable microorganisms during ensiling and exposure to air, thereby improving the fermentation quality and aerobic stability as well as retarding the proteolysis of alfalfa silage. It is suggested that CAP used as an additive is recommended at a level of 10 g/kg FW.

Haloacetic acids (HAAs) concentrations have been observed to decreased at drinking water distribution system extremities. This decrease is associated with microbiological degradation by pipe wall biofilm. The objective of this study was to evaluate HAAs degradation in a drinking water system in the presence of a biofilm and to identify the factors that influence this degradation. Degradation of monochloroacetic acid (MCAA), dichloroacetic acid (DCAA) and trichloroacetic acid (TCAA) was observed in a simulated distribution system. The results obtained showed that different parameters came into play simultaneously in the degradation of HAAs, including retention time, water temperature, biomass, and composition of organic matter. Seasonal variations had a major effect on HAAs degradation and biomass quantity (ATP concentration) was lower by 25% in the winter compared with the summer.

Chinese-style pork jerky is a typical intermediate moisture meat product obtained by curing, drying and roasting pork samples. The chemical, physical and microbiological characteristics of pork jerky were evaluated throughout processing. The moisture content varied from 72.5% to 23.4 or 19.6% and aw varied form 0.97 to 0.74 or 0.72 in accordance with processing steps. The pork jerky roasted at $200^{\circ}C$ had higher shear value than roasted at $150^{\circ}C$ because the moisture content and aw of the former sample was lower than the later sample. The nitrite losses during whole processing steps amount to nearly 50%. The TBA value of pork jerky varied from 0.34 to 9.25 or 9.83 mg of malonaldehyde depended on processing steps. The VBN value of pork jerky ranging from 0.25 to 22.4 or 23.5 mg/kg depended upon processing steps. The ATPase activity of myofibrillar proteins during processing steps were partly or entirely denatured by the heat-drying or heat-roasting treatment. A gradual decrease in microorganism count during processing of pork jerky was also observed.

본 연구는 ESL 우유와 시중 4개 회사의 일반 시유 제품의 보존 검사에서 분리되어 1차적으로 선별된 364 균주에 대해서 균주 분류를 통하여 우유의 저장온도와 기간 중의 우유내 우세균을 확인하고 ESL 우유와 기타 일반 시유의 미생물 균종별 분포를 비교하였으며, 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 먼저 364 균주의 분리원에 따른 분류에서는 ESL 우유가 가장 낮은 검출 균주수를 나타냈다. 전체 분리된 미생물 균주의 분포를 보면, Bacillus 계통과 Staphylococcus 계통이 주로 많이 검출되었으며, Lactobacillus 계통을 제외하고는 매우 다양한 분포를 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 우유 가공처리법에 따른 분리균종을 비교해 보면, LTLT 살균유의 경우에는 내열성이 강한 Enterococcus 계통의 균종이 특이적으로 많이 검출되었으며, UHT 살균유 중에서 ESL 우유에 비해서 기타 일반 시유에서는 Pseudomonas 계통의 저온성 미생물 균종이 많이 검출되었다. 보존온도별 균종 분포를 보면, Bacillus 계통은 보존온도가 높을수록 검출빈도가 높았으며, Pseudomonas와 같은 저온성 계통은 $10^{\circ}C$에서 가장 높은 빈도로 검출되었다. 기초동정 결과와 동정기를 이용한 동정 결과를 비교한 결과, 기초 동정법에 의한 균종의 분류 정확도가 매우 높은 것으로 확인되었다. 결론적으로 ESL우유와 일반우유의 미생물 균종 분포를 비교해 볼 때, 살균후 포장과정에서 2차적으로 오염될 확률이 높은 Pseudomonas 계통에서 커다란 차이를 보였으며, 이러한 Pseudomonas 계통의 미생물은 냉장 유통에서도 품질에 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다. 따라서 ESL 우유가 유통 중 제품의 품질 향상과 수명 연장이 되는 것은 미생물 오염도가 낮기 때문인 것으로 확인되었다.
