Retort pouch is widely used in food industry for a long-term preservation and safe food production. By applying retort pouch technique to waxycorn storage, the quality of waxycorn could be maintained and the storage expense could be saved during storage. Water activities(Aw) of retort waxycorn were below 0.80 except blanching treatment, and it is known that microbial propagation is subdued below 0.80. Commercial value of waxy corn was deteriorated when it was frozen quickly at $-40^{\circ}C$ before treating Retort due to obscurity of chromatocity, while the color change was not noticeable when it was treated with Retort at $121^{\circ}C$ for 10min. For all treatments, very small amounts of free sugar were detected, however, there were no significant differences between treatments. As storage period was longer, shelf lifes of waxy corn in control and waxy corn treated with blanching were more shortened when waxy corn was stored at $15,5^{\circ}C$ before Retort, while waxy corn with boiling treatment was not significantly different compared with that in storage in freezer.

As modern society develops, it becomes very complex and diverse, and interests in the convenience of life and the natural environment are gradually increasing. Products used in our daily life are also changing according to the needs of consumers, and food packaging is one of them. In particular, retort packaging materials have been used for the purpose of long-term preservation of contents, but the appearance of products suitable for recent environmental issues has been somewhat delayed. Therefore, in order to develop eco-friendly and human-friendly products by replacing the metals used in the existing retort packaging materials, the possibility of substitution was examined using cellulose nanofibers, a natural material. As a result, it can be seen that all functions can be replaced according to the existing long-term storage characteristics for retort packaging films. In particular, not only oxygen permeability and water vapor permeability, which are one of the most important factors, but also heat resistance, which is heating durability, is evaluated as applicable to commercialization compared to products using metals currently in use.

For the purpose of obtaining basic data which can be applied to evaluate the quality of the retortable pouch and tin-plated canned product, the canned sardine and the retort pouched sardine were prepared and compared in terms of thermal sterilization times required and product duality during storage. Retort pouched sardine required $20\%$ less thermal sterilization time than the canned sardine. Volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) and amino nitrogen ($NH_2-N$) contents in both canned and retort pouched sardine showed little difference during processing and storage. During storage, peroxide value (POV) and thiobarbituric acid (TBA) value of the canned sardine had a slightly higher value compared to the retort pouched sardine, but acid value (AV) revealed little difference between both canned and retort pouched sardine. Trimethylamine (TMA) content of the both canned and retort pouched sardine showed little difference during processing and storage. The inosinic acid (IMP) content in canned and retort pouched sardine was $8.39{\sim}9.80{\mu}mole/g$ range, and had no significant change during processing and storage. The retort ponched sardine revealed a smaller reduction in polyenoic acid than the canned sardine during processing and storage. Among the TPA (texture profile analysis) parameters, hardness maintained a slightly higher value in the retort pouched sardine than in the canned sardine. Color values showed that the retort pouched sardine was generally lighter than the canned sardine. In sensory evaluation, the retort pouched sardine was scored slightly higher, in most cases, for color, flavor, texture, taste and overall acceptance than the canned sardine. It was concluded from the results that the retort pouched sardine was at least equal to the canned sardine in product quality.

The purpose of this study was to optimum formulation conditions for the preparation of retort pouched marsh snail Senisulcospira livertina soup with curled mallow Malva verticillata and optimized the sterilization process. Samples were prepared according to the central composite rotatable design (CCRD) by encrypting the amounts of marsh snail broth, boiled marsh snail and blanched curled mallow, which are the main ingredients of retort pouched marsh snail soup with curled mallow. Raw marsh snail was sorted by size of 4-5 level, and then marsh snail was washed and removed sediment in a water tank for 3 min, then boiled at 100℃ for 10 min, and then directly separated by hand to prepared a boiled marsh snail. The marsh snail cube is prepared by combining blanched at 100℃ for 10 sec curled mallow (27 g) and green onion (20 g) with boiled marsh snail (27 g) and soybean paste (10 g). The marsh snail cube was placed with marsh snail broth (416 g) in a retort pouch film. Subsequently, sterilization (118.0℃, 25 min; F₀ value, 12 min) and cooling were performed using a steam retort.

To develop a value-added product from individually quick-frozen oysters Crassostrea gigas (IQFO), we prepared a retort pouched oyster soup (RPOS) from IQFOs and characterized its processing conditions and quality metrics. We found that the most appropriate manufacturing process for the RPOS consisted of half-thawing and washing raw IQF oysters, blanching, adding them to the retort pouch along with other ingredients (base soup stock, IQF oyster extract, radish, bean sprouts, garlic, and red pepper), sealing, retort sterilization ($120^{\circ}$, F0-value 10 min.), cooling, and packaging inspection. The moisture, crude protein, pH and salinity of the RPOS were 91.0%, 2.8%, 6.20 and 0.9%, respectively. The total amino acid content of the RPOS was 2,163.8 mg/100 g, and the main amino acids were glutamic acid, aspartic acid, leucine, proline, lysine and arginine. The primary inorganic ions were Na, K, S and Zn. In taste compounds, total free amino acid content was 313.4 mg/100 g, and the main free amino acids were glutamic acid, taurine, proline, hydroxyproline, aspartic acid, glycine, alanine, valine, lysine and arginine. This RPOS has good storage stability and organoleptic qualities compared with commercial retort pouched shellfish soup, and is suitable for commercialization as a value-added instant seafood soup.

Heat penetration characteristics of retort pouched curry were studied to determine optimal sterilization conditions. Heating curve of retort pouched curry showed a simple logarithmic curve. The $f_h$ value (min.) of solid part in retort pouched curry was 1 min. higher than that of liquid part. $f_h$ value (min.) and $j_h$ value (heating lag factor) ranged from 8.3 min. to 12 min. and 1.0 to 1.17 respectively with increasing the ratio of solid to liquid and viscosity. $f_h$ value (min.) and $j_h$ value were significantly increased from 7.4 min. to 12.6 min. and 1.0 to 1.14 respectively with increasing thickness of the pouch from 11 to 15 mm. The low and medium volatile aroma components of retort pouched curry decreased during sterilization, which increased the high volatile aroma components. The retort pouched curry processed at $120^{\circ}C$, for 24 min. with $F_o$, value of $8{\sim}9$ could keep up a desirable quality without any remarkable deterioration.

This study was carried out to develop the normal temperature-circulatable retort sterilized imitation crab leg (RSIC) with long shelf-life by retort sterilization. We have examined the optimum retort sterilization conditions and quality characteristics of the RSIC. Central composite design for response surface methodology (RSM) was adopted for optimization of retort sterilization, and experimental central composite design consisted of 11 samples such as 4 factorial points; 4 star points; 3 central points. Sterilization temperature and $F_0-value$ for retort sterilization were chosen for independent variables, and shearing force, whiteness and sensory score about texture were selected as a dependent variable. As a results of RSM analysis, multiple response optimization for the RSIC by Minitap statistical programing was $F_0-value$ 3.3 min. at $117.5{^{\circ}C}$. Also RSM analysis indicated such as sterilization temperature during retort sterilization was the most influential factor, while $F_0-value$ little affected on quality of the RSIC.
