본 연구는 이산화염소수 처리가 식품에서의 잔류농약 제거에 효과가 있는지 조사하기 위해서 수행되었다. 10, 50, 100 ppm 이산화염소수로 채소류에 흔히 쓰이는 농약인chlrpyrifos, diazinon, metalaxyl을 처리하여 GC를 이용하여 농약의 분해율을 측정하였다. 상기 세 가지 농약 성분은 이산화염소수 처리 농도뿐만 아니라 처리시간에 비례하여 분해되었으며 특히 100 ppm 이산화염소수 처리가 가장 효과적이었다. 또한, 인위적으로 농약을 오염시킨 상추를 증류수, 100 ppm 이산화염소수에 각각 침지하여 농약의 제거율을 비교해 보았을 때, 100 ppm 이산화염소수에 10분 동안 침지하였을 때가 가장 효과가 좋았다. 본 연구 결과, 이산화염소수 처리는 신선농산물에서의 잔류농약을 제거하기 위한 세척수로 이용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Effect of aqueous chlorine dioxide treatment on the microbial growth and quality changes of strawberries during storage was examined. Strawberries were treated with 5, 10, and 50 ppm of chlorine dioxide solution, and stored at $4{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. Total aerobic bacteria in strawberries treated at 50 ppm of chlorine dioxide were increased from 1.40 to 2.10 log CFU/g after 7 days, while increasing in the control from 2.75 to 4.32 log CFU/g. Yeasts and molds in strawberries treated at 50 ppm of chlorine dioxide were increased from 1.10 to 1.97 log CFU/g after 7 days, while the control was increased from 2.55 to 4.50 log CFU/g. The pH and titratable acidity of strawberries were not significantly different among treatments. Sensory evaluation results showed that chlorine dioxide-treated strawberries had better sensory scores than the control. These results indicate that chlorine dioxide treatment could be useful in improving the microbial safety and qualities of strawberries during storage.

본 연구에서는 이산화염소 처리를 이용하여 대표적 식중독 미생물인 E. coli O157:H7, Salmonella typhimurium, Listeria monocytogenes에 대한 살균 효과를 측정하였다. Pure cell culture 상태에서의 E. coli는 이산화염소 5 ppm에서 D-value가 3.37분으로 측정되었다. 그러나 Salmonella와 Listeria의 생존곡선은 이산화염소 처리시간에 따라 biphasic curve를 나타내었다. 이러한 biphasic curve는 5분까지의 처리로 해당 농도에서의 살균효과는 대부분 나타나고 그 이후는 효과가 없음을 보여주었다. 특히 Listeria의 5ppm과 10ppm의 처리결과는 이산화염소의 처리에 영향을 주는 인자 중 처리 시간보다는 처리농도가 더 큰 영향을 끼치는 것을 나타내었다. 본 연구 결과는 이산화염소 허용치인 5ppm이 신선채소에 대한 미생물학적 안전성을 확보 하기엔 부족하다는 것을 시사한다.

새싹 채소 중 무순의 위생적인 재배 조건을 위한 종자에 대한 이산화염소수와 열수처리 효과를 조사하였다. 이산화염소수와 열처리를 단독처리 또는 복합처리를 통하여 무종자의 발아율과 미생물의 감소를 조사한 결과, 단독처리시 100 ppm 농도 이상의 이산화염소수로 10분 이상 처리시 대조구와 비교하여 1 log cycle이상 감소하였으나, 열수처리 온도 $45^{\circ}C{\sim}55^{\circ}C$에서는 미생물의 감소가 1 log cycle 이하의 미미한 감소효과를 나타내었다. 발아율은 이산화염소수의 처리에 의한 영향은 없었으며 열처리 온도 $45^{\circ}C{\sim}50^{\circ}C$에서는 열처리에 의한 발아율이 증가한 반면, $55^{\circ}C$/10분 이상 처리구에서 발아율이 감소하여 $55^{\circ}C$/20분 처리 시 대조구에 비하여 발아율 약 10% 이상 감소하였다. 이산화염소수 50 ppm, 100 ppm과 열수 온도 $45^{\circ}C,\;50^{\circ}C$간의 복합처리는 발아율의 증가와 미생물의 감소효과를 나타내었으며, 특히, 100 ppm의 농도에서 병행 처리 시 약 2 log cycle의 미생물 감소효과와 발아율이 $97.0{\sim}97.7%$로 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 결론적으로, 이산화염소수와 열수의 복합처리는 무 새싹채소의 종자에 미생물적 안전성을 증가 시킴과 동시에 발아율을 증가시키는 것으로 판단된다.

The efficacy of citric acid-aqueous chlorine dioxide ($ClO_2$) treatment of radish seeds artificially contaminated with Escherichia coli was studied. Radish seeds were inoculated with E. coli. Following inoculation, samples were stored at $4^{\circ}C$ and soaked in citric acid or aqueous $ClO_2$ for 10 min. The treatment of radish seeds using 200 ppm aqueous $ClO_2$ solution caused a 1.5 log CFU/g reduction in the population of E. coli. Compared to the aqueous $ClO_2$ treatment, soaking radish seeds in 2.0% citric acid solution for 10 min was more effective in reducing E. coli populations on radish seeds. The efficacy of spray application of chlorine (100 ppm) or 0.5% citric acid to eliminate E. coli during the germination and growth of radish was investigated. Radish seed inoculated with E. coli was treated for the duration of the growth period. Although it resulted in a decrease in the E. coli population, the spray application of 100 ppm chlorine during the growth period was not significantly effective. In contrast, the combined treatment of seeds using 200 ppm aqueous $ClO_2$ and treatment of sprouts with 0.5% citric acid solution during sprout growth was hardly effective in eliminating E. coli.

Inactivation of Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Salmonella typhimurium was evaluated on inoculated chicken by aqueous chlorine dioxide ($CIO_2$) treatment. Chicken samples were inoculated with 6-7 log CFU/g of Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Salmonella typhimurium, respectively. The chicken samples were then treated with 0, 50, and 100 ppm of $CIO_2$ solution and stored at $4{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. Aqueous $CIO_2$ treatment decreased the populations of the pathogenic bacteria on the chicken breast and drumstick. In particular, 100 ppm $CIO_2$ treatment on the chicken breast and drumstick reduced Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Salmonella typhimurium by 1.00-1.27 and 1.37-1.44 log CFU/g, respectively. Aqueous $CIO_2$ treatment on the growth of the bacteria was continuously in effect during storage, resulting in the decrease of the populations of Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Salmonella typhimurium. These results suggest that aqueous $CIO_2$ treatment should be useful in improving the microbial safety of chicken during storage.

Inactivation of Agrobacterium tumefaciens was evaluated on the inoculated fresh Radix Ginseng by electron beam irradiation or aqueous chlorine dioxide ($ClO_2$) treatment. Two groups of fresh ginsengs were prepared and inoculated with A. tumefaciens. One group was then irradiated at 0, 2, and 4 kGy using an electron beam accelerator, and the other group was treated with 0, 50, and 100 ppm of aqueous $ClO_2$. Microbiological data indicated that populations of A. tumefaciens significantly decreased with increasing irradiation dose or aqueous $ClO_2$ concentration. In particular, A. tumefaciens was eliminated by irradiation at 4 kGy, and 100 ppm $ClO_2$ treatment reduced the populations of A. tumefaciens by 1.44 log CFU/g. These results suggest that electron beam irradiation or aqueous $ClO_2$ treatment can be useful in improving the microbial safety of fresh ginsengs during storage.

Effects of aqueous chlorine dioxide ($ClO_2$) treatment on the microbial growth and the quality of iceberg lettuce during storage were examined. Lettuce samples were treated with 0, 5, 10, and 50 ppm of $ClO_2$ solution and stored at $4^{\circ}C$. Aqueous $ClO_2$ treatment significantly decreased the populations of total aerobic bacteria, yeasts and molds, and coliforms on the shredded lettuce. Fifty ppm $ClO_2$ treatment reduced the initial populations of total aerobic bacteria, yeasts and molds, and coliforms by 1.77, 1.34, 1.10 log CFU/g, respectively. Aqueous $ClO_2$ treatment caused negligible changes in the Hunter color L, a, and b values during storage. Sensory evaluations exhibited that there were no significant changes among treatments. These results indicate that the aqueous $ClO_2$ treatment can be useful in improving the microbial safety of the iceberg lettuce during storage and extending the shelf life.

Aqueous chlorine dioxide $(ClO_2)$ treatment was used for the inactivation of Listeria monocytogenes and Campylobacter jejuni in chicken. Chicken breasts and legs were inoculated with $8{\sim}9log\;CFU/g$ of Listeria monocytogenes and Campylobacter jejuni, respectively, and then treated with 0, 50, and 100 ppm of $ClO_2$ solution. Aqueous $ClO_2$ treatment decreased the populations of the pathogenic bacteria on the chicken samples. One hundred ppm $ClO_2$ treatment on the chicken breast and leg reduced the populations of Listeria monocytogenes and Campylobacter jejuni by $0.61{\sim}1.93\;and\;0.99{\sim}1.21log\;CFU/g$, respectively. Aqueous $ClO_2$ treatment affected the microbial growth during storage at $4^{\circ}C$ by decreasing the initial microbial populations. These results clearly suggest that aqueous $ClO_2$ treatment should be useful in improving the microbial safety of chicken during storage and extending the shelf life.

Effect of aqueous chlorine dioxide $(ClO_2)$ treatment on the quality change of fresh ginseng during storage was examined. Fresh ginseng samples were treated with 0, 50, and 100 ppm of $ClO_2$ solution, respectively, and stored at $4^{\circ}C$. Microbiological data of the fresh ginseng after $ClO_2$ treatment revealed that the populations of total aerobic bacteria, and yeast and mold were significantly reduced with the increase of $ClO_2$ concentration. In particular, the populations of total aerobic bacteria, and yeast and mold in the fresh ginseng decreased by 2.1 and 1.2 log CFU/g at 100 ppm $ClO_2$ treatment, respectively. Aqueous $ClO_2$ treatment improved the color of the fresh ginseng during storage, but there was no significant difference in weight loss during storage among treatments. Sensory evaluation results represented that the qualities of the fresh ginseng treated with aqueous $ClO_2$ during storage were better than those of the control. These results clearly indicate that aqueous $ClO_2$ treatment could be useful in decreasing the microbial growth and extending the shelf life of fresh ginseng.
