Spatial variations of physicochemical and microbiological variables were examined to understand spatial heterogeneity of those variables in intertidal flat. Variograms were constructed for understanding spatial autocorrelations of variables by a geostatistical analysis and spatial correlations between two variables were evaluated by applications of a Cross-Mantel test with a Monte Carlo procedure (with 999 permutations). Water content, organic matter content, pH, nitrate, sulfate, chloride, dissolved organic carbon (DOC), four extracellular enzyme activities (${\beta}-glucosidase$, N-acetyl-glucosaminidase, phosphatase, arylsulfatase), and bacterial diversity in soil were measured along a transect perpendicular to shore line. Most variables showed strong spatial autocorrelation or no spatial structure except for DOC. It was suggested that complex interactions between physicochemical and microbiological properties in sediment might controls DOC. Intertidal flat sediment appeared to be spatially heterogeneous. Bacterial diversity was found to be spatially correlated with enzyme activities. Chloride and sulfate were spatially correlated with microbial properties indicating that salinity in coastal environment would influence spatial distributions of decomposition capacities mediated by microorganisms. Overall, it was suggested that considerations on the spatial distributions of physicochemical and microbiological properties in intertidal flat sediment should be included when sampling scheme is designed for decomposition processes in intertidal flat sediment.

Most consumers consider yogurt to be a healthy food because it contains probiotic microorganisms. Although a plethora of commercially produced yogurts exists, nutritional and functional aspects of the commercial yogurts have not been well characterized. In this study, the microbiological and physicochemical properties of popular drinking yogurts in Korea were extensively characterized. The viability of lactic acid bacteria, including lactobacilli and bifidobacteria, varied between yogurt samples. These lactobacilli and bifidobacteria showed effective antimicrobial activities against foodborne pathogenic bacteria. Unlike the titratable acidity and pH, the soluble solids content varied between yogurt samples. All the yogurt samples contained high levels of potassium (average 143.53 mg/100 g) and calcium (average 133.92 mg/100 g), as well as phosphorus and sodium. Lactose, fructose, and glucose were the major sugar components in most yogurt samples, whereas the levels of sucrose and maltose were relatively low. Among several organic acids analyzed in the yogurt samples, lactic acid (average 767.67 mg/100 g) and citric acid (average 170.91 mg/100 g) were the most predominant. Taken together, this study provides preliminary information about the nutritional and functional characteristics of commercially available drinking yogurts.

This study aimed to determine the physicochemical, microbiological and sensory qualities of salad dressing with added Prunus mume extracts. For this study, dressing was blended with Prunus mume extracts to different concentrations of 0, 10, and 20%. Physicochemical and microbiological effects of dressing with added Prunus mume extracts were assessed during production and storage days by measuring pH and Aw and by determining total plate counts and coliforms. Effects of salad dressing added Prunus mume extracts on the total plate counts and coliforms of salad dressing were observed during storage at $3^{\circ}C$ and $25{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ for 30 days. Prunus mume extracts showed antibacterial properties, and improved the microbiological quality. Sensory scores for salad dressing with added Prunus mume extracts were higher than those for the control group.

Comparison of ethylene oxide(E.O) fumigation and gamma irradiation on the sterilization, microbiological, physicochemcial and sensory quality of dried fishery products (shucked shellfish and mussel powder) were investigated. The viable cell count of mesophilic total bacterial was reduced by over 2 to 3 log cycles with irradiation of 3 to 5 kGy, and those samples were completely sterilized by irradiation dose of 7 to 10 kGy. In view of reduction of microorganisms, D10 value of each samples were ranged from 1. 36-1. 46 kGy. fungi, mesophilic spores, acid tolerant bacteria and coliforms were sterilized at 5 to 7 kGy irradiation but E.O. fumigation proved insulfficient to eliminate the mesophilic total bacteria and fungi. In the physicochemical and sensory quality of samples, such as the amino acid, TBA value, TMA-N, color difference and overall acceptability irradiated sample with optimum dose was similar to those of the nonirradiated sample, while E.O. fumigated sample was remarkably deteriorated in the physicochemical and sensory quality of samples.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the physico-chemical, sensory, and microbiological properties of ready-to-eat Korean traditional seasoned beef ribs ("galbi-jjim") prepared by sous-vide/cookchill technology during storage at three different temperatures (4, 10, and $20^{\circ}C$). Beef short ribs marinated in soy sauce for 24 h at $3^{\circ}C$ were packed with vegetables under vacuum. Vacuum-packed beef ribs mixed with vegetables were heated at $90^{\circ}C$ for 90 min in a water bath, and then immediately chilled below $3^{\circ}C$ within 120 min in an ice slurry. Physicochemical (pH, water activity, TBARS, $L^*a^*b^*$ color, and texture profile), sensory (appearance, odor, flavor, texture, and acceptance) and microbiological (Coliform, Escherichia coli, food-borne pathogenic bacteria) properties of the samples were determined during storage at different temperatures. Results showed that pH, $a_w$, and sensory evaluation of products were not affected in any consistent way as a function of either storage duration or temperature. Coliform, E. coli and food-borne pathogens were not detected during storage at any temperature. However, TBARS significantly increased during storage period (p<0.05). Based on TBARS values, SV/CC "galbi-jjim" can be stored for 15 d, 12 d and 1 d at 4, 10 and $20^{\circ}C$, respectively.

This study examined the optimal temperature and time conditions to maintain high quality Dongchimi during the fermentation and storage period. Dongchimi was fermented at low (5℃), medium (10 and 15℃), and high (20℃) temperatures until the acidity reached 0.2, 0.3, and 0.4%. respectively. From the consumer's preference test enrolling five consumers, Dongchimi fermented at 15℃ until an acidity of 0.3% (for approximately six days) was evaluated to be the optimal status because of its high score of overall acceptance, taste, and odor of consumers. To determine the optimal storage temperature of fermentation, Dongchimi was stored at three different temperatures (-1, 2, 5℃) for four weeks after fermenting at 15℃ for six days. During the storage period, most of the physicochemical properties (pH, acidity, reducing sugar content, and organic acid) and microbiological properties changed significantly in the 2 and 5℃ groups, resulting in a significant change in descriptive sensory analysis of Dongchimi. These results indicate that fermentation at 15℃ and storage at -1℃ for Dongchimi enables it to maintain the best quality for a long time.

양배추 피클로부터 분리된 유산균으로 발효하여 제조한 플레인 요구르트와 소이 요구르트를 저장하는 동안 미생물학적 및 물리화학적 변화와 항산화 특성을 조사하였다. 분리 균주는 당분해능과 유전자 염기서열 분석을 통해 L. casei PC05와 L. acidophilus PC16으로 동정되었다. Lactobacillus acidophilus PC16 균주로 발효시킨 요구르트의 적정산도, 점도 및 균수는 L. casei PC05 균주에 의해 제조된 요구르트에 비해 높게 나타났으며, 특히 플레인 요구르트보다 소이 요구르트에서 세균수와 물리화학적 요인의 측정값이 유의하게 높은 것으로 확인되었다. 한편, L. acidophilus PC16 균주로 발효시킨 요구르트는 DPPH 라디칼 소거능과 철이온 킬레이팅 활성이 높았으나, L. casei PC05 균주의 요구르트는 superoxide anion 제거능과 SOD 활성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 대부분의 항산화능은 플레인 요구르트보다 소이 요구르트에서 더 높게 나타났으며, 요구르트의 지질과산화 억제능은 항산화 활성에 기인하는 것으로 추정된다. 또한 발효직후 요구르트의 미생물학적, 물리화학적 및 항산화 활성은 $4^{\circ}C$에서 8일간 저장하는 동안 거의 일정한 수준으로 유지되었다.

This study was performed to investigate the physicochemical and microbiological properties of isoflavone-treated dry cured sausage from sulfur fed pork (0.3%) during storage at $15^{\circ}C$ for 45 days. Groups were divided into three treatments: dry-cured sausages produced with pork fed general diet as the control group (CON), sulfur-fed pork (SUL) and isoflavone-(0.25%) treated sulfur-fed pork (ISO). Moisture content in all groups decreased dramatically from 55-57% to 10-11% during storage, whereas crude protein, crude fat, and ash content increased (P < 0.05). The ISO group showed excellent antioxidant effect compared to CON during storage. Redness and lightness of ISO was higher than that of CON during storage. VBN in the ISO group was significantly lower than that in the CON and SUL treatments during 30 and 45 days of storage (P < 0.05). A total plate count of ISO was significantly lower than that of CON at 45 days (P < 0.05). In this study, adding isoflavone to meat products indicated prevention of lipid oxidation and improved color stability in meat products.
