Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the change in the quality of early season Fuji apples that were subjected to eight different storage conditions using the developed controlled atmosphere (CA) storage system. Early season Fuji apples grown at Mungyeong, in the South Korea, were harvested in September 2014 for storage studies. Flesh firmness, titratable acidity, total soluble solid content, weight loss, and internal browning disorder were used as quality indicators for the stored apples. Flesh firmness and weight loss were better than that of the control after 70 days of storage. However, there was no significant difference in the titratable acidity or total soluble solid content among the apple samples from eight chambers after storage. The internal browning disorder of apple samples in CA chambers occurred when exposed to 1% $CO_2+2%$ $O_2$ and 1% $CO_2+0.5%$ $O_2$, resulting in a higher incidence rate of 2 and 8% after 70 days of storage than that in the control. In addition, the CA storage conditions at 3, 4 and 5% $CO_2+2%$ $O_2$ increased the rate of internal browning disorder by 26%. Therefore, CA storage can be used to maintain the quality of the apple if the optimal gas concentrations in the CA are applied to the storage strategy.

본 연구는 CA 저장시스템 및 기체치환 기밀 챔버를 개발하여 조생 '후지' 사과의 저온저장 중 기체 환경 조성에 따른 이화학적 품질변화 및 내부갈변 장해 발생률 구명에 따른 국산 사과의 CA 저장기술 확립을 위한 기초 자료를 얻고자 수행되었다. 70일 저장 후 경도는 CA 조건 챔버에 저장된 사과 시료가 대조구와 비교하여 유의적으로 높은 값을 보였다. 중량감소율은 1~5% $CO_2+0.5{\sim}2%$ $O_2$ CA 조건 및 95% RH 습도로 설정된 챔버의 시료가 0.49~0.53%을 나타내어 대조구의 1.02%보다 낮은 감소율을 보였다. 한편, 적정산도와 가용성고형물 함량은 챔버 1~8에 저장된 사과시료 간에 유의적인 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 내부장해 발생은 일반 저온저장한 대조구(챔버 8)가 2%를 나타냈으며 1% $CO_2+2%$ $O_2$ CA 조건(챔버 1)에서는 약 4%의 내부 갈변장해율을 나타내었다. 한편, 3~5% $CO_2+2%$ $O_2$ CA 조건(챔버 4~6)에서는 20~26%의 높은 내부갈변 장해발생률을 보였기 때문에 조생 '후지' 사과의 경우 CA 저장 시 $CO_2$ 농도를 2% 미만으로 유지해야하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구결과 1% $CO_2+2%$ $O_2$ CA 조건 및 95% $RH+0^{\circ}C$ 저장환경에서 사과의 호흡억제 및 숙성 노화지연 등으로 계획된 기간 동안 품질유지가 가능할 것으로 판단된다. 향후 다양한 품종의 국산 사과의 CA 저장기술 실용화를 위해 재배지역 및 수확시기 등에 따른 이화학적 및 관능적 품질 분석과 소비자 기호도 조사의 데이터베이스화하여 CA 저장 장해극복 방안 연구가 이루어져야 할 것으로 여겨진다.
