Abstract

This experiment was conducted to establish the optimum conditions for high $CO_2$ gas treatment in combination with a proper gas-permeable packaging film to maintain the quality of fig fruit (Ficus carica L). Among the fig fruits with different high $CO_2$ treatments, the quality change was most effectively controlled during storage in the 70%-$CO_2$-treated fig fruit. Harvested fig fruit was packaged using microperforated oriented polypropylene (MP) film to maintain the optimum gas concentrations in the headspace of packaging for the modified-atmosphere system. MP film had an oxygen transmission rate of about $10,295cm^3/m^2$/day/atm at $25^{\circ}C$. The weight loss, firmness, soluble-solid content (SSC), acidity (pH), skin color (Hunter L, a, b), and decay ratio of the fig fruits were monitored during storage at 5 and $25^{\circ}C$. The results of this study showed that the OPP film, OPP film + 70% $CO_2$, and MP film+70% $CO_2$ were highly effective in reducing the loss rate, firmness and decay occurrence rate of fig fruits that were packaged with them during storage. In the case of using treatments with packages of OPP film and OPP film+70% $CO_2$, however, adverse effects like package bursting or physiological injury of the fig may occur due to the gas pressure or long exposure to $CO_2$. Therefore, the results indicated that MP film containing 70% $CO_2$ can be used as an effective treatment to extend the freshness of fig fruits for storage at a proper low temperature.

본 연구는 국내 무화과의 저장 중 품질 개선효과를 관찰하기 위하여 고농도 $CO_2$ 처리와 미세천공포장 필름을 적용하였다. 포장된 내부의 고농도 $CO_2$ 처리를 위하여 70%의 초기 $CO_2$로 유지하였으며, 가스투과도가 다른 포장재들(일반 OPP필름과 미세천공 MP필름)로 밀봉하여 5와 $25^{\circ}C$의 저장조건에서 수확 후 무화과의 선도유지를 평가하였다. 70% 이상의 고농도 $CO_2$로 전처리한 무화과의 중량 감소율과 경도, 부패과 발생율이 무처리구와 비교하여 선도유지에 긍정적인 효과가 있음을 관찰한 결과를 기반으로 70% 고농도 $CO_2$처리와 포장재로 밀봉한 무화과의 저장실험에서 일반 OPP필름, 일반 OPP필름+70% $CO_2$, 미세천공 MP필름+70% $CO_2$ 처리구가 중량감소율, 경도, 부패율 감소에 효과가 있음을 확인하였다. 그중 미세천공 필름에 70%의 고농도 $CO_2$로 충진하여 밀봉 포장한 무화과가 저장기간동안 호흡률 및 포장재의 가스투과도로 인한 포장내부에 변화된 환경을 최적조건으로 유지시켜 주는 것으로 관찰되었다. 따라서 고농도 $CO_2$처리된 미세천공 필름을 적용한 포장설계는 수확 후 무화과의 선도유지 개선에 큰 효과를 가져다줄 뿐만 아니라 유통과정 중 쉽게 발생할 수 있는 물리적 충격에 인한 외형적 손상으로부터 무화과의 상품성을 유지할 수 있는 효과 또한 기대할 수 있다.
