Abstract

Blueberries and strawberries are highly perishable and easily contaminated with microorganisms. To maintain the quality of these commodities during refrigerated storage, the effects of two packaging materials as well as passive modified atmosphere packaging on the quality of blueberries and strawberries were investigated. The harvested blueberries and strawberries were first treated with combined non-thermal treatment of aqueous chlorine dioxide and fumaric acid, followed by packaging with polyolefin film (6,000 mL $O_2/m^2{\cdot}24hr{\cdot}atm$ at $24^{\circ}C$) and polyamide/polyamide/polyethylene film (PA/PA/PE, 60 mL $O_2/m^2{\cdot}24hr{\cdot}atm$ at $24^{\circ}C$), respectively. After combined sanitizer treatment, the populations of total aerobic bacteria in blueberries and strawberries were reduced by 2.50 and 1.97 log CFU/g while those of yeast and molds were reduced by 1.95 and 2.18 log CFU/g, respectively, compared with the control. In particular, microbial growth in these samples packed with PA/PA/PE film was reduced during refrigerated storage. In addition, the blueberries and strawberries packed with PA/PA/PE film underwent lower weight loss than those packed with polyolefin film during storage. These results suggest that appropriate packaging with proper gas permeability is necessary to maintain the quality of blueberries and strawberries during refrigerated storage.

블루베리 및 딸기의 품질유지를 위한 MAP의 활용 가능성을 확인하고자 비가열 병합 처리 세척과정을 거친 '엘리오트' 블루베리와 '설향' 딸기 시료를 기체투과도가 다른 polyolefin film(6,000 mL $O_2/m^2{\cdot}24hr{\cdot}atm$ at $24^{\circ}C$)과 PA/PA/PE film(60 mL $O_2/m^2{\cdot}24hr{\cdot}atm$ at $24^{\circ}C$)에 각각 포장한 후 $4^{\circ}C$에 저장하면서 품질 변화를 측정하였다. 수확 후 블루베리와 딸기에 병합 세척처리를 한 결과, 총 호기성균은 각각 2.50, 1.97 log CFU/g, 효모 및 곰팡이에서는 각각 1.95, 2.18 log CFU/g의 감균 효과를 얻어 우수한 살균 효과를 나타내었다. 또한 PA/PA/PE film 포장에 의한 낮은 기체투과도로 인한 높은 이산화탄소 농도 환경에서 미생물의 생육이 저장 중 억제되는 것을 확인하였고, 중량 감소율에 있어서도 높은 기체투과도를 갖는 polyolefin film으로 포장한 처리구보다 낮은 감소율을 보여, 소포장된 블루베리와 딸기의 경우 기체투과도가 낮은 포장재를 이용하는 것이 효율적인 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구 결과, 수확 후 블루베리 및 딸기의 적절한 기체 조성을 위한 포장재의 선택은 품질 유지 및 유통기한 증대에 도움을 줄 것으로 판단된다.
