Abstract

Correct packaging enables processors to pack fresh produce and extend its shelf life. This study was carried out to investigate the effect of different packaging materials on the weight loss, pH, $O_2$, $CO_2$ and sensory characteristics of soybean sprouts during their storage at $5^{\circ}C$ for seven days. Soybean sprouts ($320{\pm}20g$) were packaged with oriented polypropylene (OPP) and cast polypropylene (CPP) films, respectively. The $O_2$ transmission rate of the packaging materials was set to have a control of $10,000cc/m^2$.day.atm, and an OP15 and CP15 with $15,000cc/m^2$.day.atm through a pre-screening test. The average weight loss of the soybean sprouts during their storage was less than 10%, and that of the soybean sprouts with a CPP film was higher than that of the OPP film. The pH of the soybean sprouts increased during their storage regardless of their packaging materials; but compared to the pH of the soybean sprouts packaged with OPP, those packaged with CPP were higher. The $CO_2$ content of the packaging increased with a decrease in the $O_2$ content. The ratio of $CO_2$ to $O_2$ in the soybean sprouts with the OPP film was 3.5 times higher than in the soybean sprouts with the CPP film. The results of the overall sensory test showed that the marketability of the soybean sprouts packaged with OPP film and stored at $5^{\circ}C$ seemed to have been maintained effectively for six days (at a $15,000cc/m^2$.day.atm $O_2$ transmission rate). When the correlation coefficients of the control, OP15 and CP15 were analyzed, the highest correlation was shown between a control and OP15 (0.986; p<0.01).

포장 콩나물의 유통 중 품질향상을 위한 기초연구를 실시하고자 포장 필름의 종류 및 산소투과도에 따른 저장 중 포장 콩나물의 품질 변화를 조사하였다. 시판 중인 비포장 벌크 콩나물(제조일로부터 1일) 각 $320{\pm}20g$을 산소투과율 $3,000cc/m^2{\cdot}day{\cdot}atm$ 범위의 다양한 포장 필름으로 밀봉포장하고 $5^{\circ}C$에서 7일간 저장하면서 품질변화를 측정하였다. 품질유지에 적합한 산소투과도 선정을 위한 예비 실험 결과 산소유지율이 높은 $10,000cc/m^2{\cdot}day{\cdot}atm$의 산소투과도를 가지는 OPP 필름(대조구)과 $15,000cc/m^2{\cdot}day{\cdot}atm$의 산소투과도를 가지는 OPP (OP15) 및 CPP (CP15) 필름을 선정하였고, 이들 필름으로 포장한 콩나물의 저장 중 중량감소율, pH, 산소, 이산화탄소 및 관능적 품질변화를 조사하였다. 저장 중 중량감소율은 모든 구에서 10% 미만으로 OP15의 중량감소율이 가장 작게 나타났다. 저장 중 pH는 저장일의 증가에 따라 증가하고 있으며 유의적인 차이는 없으나 CP15에서 더 크게 나타났다. 저장에 따른 포장 내부의 산소함량은 감소하고 이산화탄소의 함량은 증가하고 있는데, 산소투과율이 높을수록 저장 중 높은 산소유지율을 나타내었다. 이산화탄소의 축적률은 저장 7일경 대조구와 OP15, CP15 각각에서 15.6%, 15.4% 및 14.3%로 대조구에서 가장 높은 수준의 축적률을 나타내었다. 저장 중의 관능품질은 저장 7일경 상업적 품질이 상실되어 OP15의 경우 강한 이취가 CP15에서 강한 녹변이 발생하였다.
