Tis study was an attempt to systematically analyze the characteristics of modern Korean food styling using the menu image photos of the Michelin Guide Seoul 2020 restaurants. The first sampling was conducted on the 27th of March 2020 and the second on the 27th of October 2020. A collection of images on the web and 442 photographic cases obtained by a search through theoretical background literature and research papers were studied by a qualitative analysis method. First, the food styling contents were analyzed and based on that, the food styling characteristics of the menus of 11 restaurants in Korea including the contemporary restaurants were considered. The analysis revealed several aspects of Korean food styling. First, food styling appeared to have three major characteristics: color, shape, and container styling. Color styling was further subdivided into single color/similar color, color contrast, source type, and accent color type. The shape/formative styling was classified into figure type, shape type, accessory type, and garnish type, and container styling was categorized as container color type, container shape type, and container material type. Second, the modern Korean food color styling characteristics of Michelin restaurants were categorized in the order of monochromatic/similar type, sauce type, accent color type, and color contrast. In the formative styling category, it was categorized in the order of shape type, small piece type, garnish/garnish type, and figure type. In container styling, container material type and formative type accounted for the major portion of the category. The food styling characteristics of the modern Korean menu were systematized and image examples were presented visually. Please use it as food styling educational material or personal food styling skill.

The efficacy of an experimentally designed cold chain container and a currently used styrofoam container was investigated with respect to important factors affecting the quality of fresh beef during storage under different conditions. The temperature in the TEPP-1 container was maintained at $5^{\circ}C$ using a phase change material (PCM) during transport and delivery. During storage in the TEPP-1 container, no significant difference was observed in pH of beef, but color decreased slightly, which does not affect the desire to purchase. After storage for 7 days, the rate of VBN and TBA in the TEPP-1 container, was lower than that in the TEPP-2 container. Drip loss was lower in the TEPP-1 container (0.87%) than in the TEPP-2 container (1.78%). No significant changes were observed in microbal count until 4 days in either of the containers, but after storage for 7 days, the count increased significantly. Microbial count in TEPP-1 was 6.65 log CFU/mL and that in TEPP-2 was 7.62 log CFU/mL. The results of sensory evaluations indicated that the overall acceptability of beef after storage for 7 days was better in the TEPP-1 container than in the TEPP-2 container. The EPS container was inferior in comparison with TEPP-1 and TEPP-2. It was impossible to continue the experiment using the EPS container after 3 days. These results suggest that the experimentally designed TEPP-1 container can be used for beef transport and delivery for 7 days without significantly affecting the quality of beef.

In order to improve cut-flower export packaging on the distribution process, newly developed T-type(trapezoid type) container was tested and evaluated on the viewpoints of the protection, workability, and economics. T-type container performed better in protection and workability comparing to 0201 and modified 0201 type containers. Especially, load efficiency of T-type container was 33 percent higher than others, indicating that total distribution costs from Korea to Japan can be saved up to 1.7million dollars per year. T-type container is also advantageous because of its superior display performance and environmentally friendly design. We recommend that T-type container is suitable for most of cut-flowers which are usually horizontally packed such as roses, chrysanthemums, and lilies.

A kimchi container actively controlling $CO_2$ concentration by timely flushing of $CO_2$ gas was structured and tested in its capability and effectiveness because high $CO_2$ concentration enhances the sensory flavor of the product. The inlet and outlet valves of $CO_2$ gas were programmed to open and close allowing synchronous vent/$CO_2$ flush according to the requirements of its dissolution in the contained kimchi. During the chilled storage, the headspace of container could be maintained at desired high $CO_2$ concentration providing the preferred kimchi in sensory quality compared to control of the conventional container. However, there was no significant difference between the high $CO_2$ container and control (container simply closed with air) in kimchi quality attributes of pH, titratable acidity, total viable bacterial count, Lactobacillus sp. count and Leuconostoc sp. count. The flow rate and time interval of $CO_2$ flushing need to be adjusted considering the kimchi amount, headspace volume and ripening time. The designed system has potential to be applied in refrigerator appliances in homes and food service industry.

Testing the volume of injection in container is to ensure that the nominal content of a container can be administered to the patient. The method to test the volume of injection in container is described in European Pharmacopeia (EP) and United States Pharmacopeia (USP). However there is no method to test the volume of injection in Korean Pharmacopeia (KP). So we surveyed the method practiced by 53 pharmaceutical companies in Korea by a questionnaire and tested commercially available injections by discharged volume. As the result, we agreed with the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) test method for discharged volume. It was suggested that the ICH test method for discharged volume of injection in container would be adopted.

The shelf life of oysters Crassostrea gigas, in two different types of packaging containers, polyethylene (PE) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET), was determined by evaluating the pH, glycogen and soluble protein content, turbidity, and viable cell count. After 7 days of storage, the pH of the packing water in the PE container decreased to 5.88, while the pH in the PET container decreased to 6.03. In the PE container, the glycogen content of the oysters decreased by 0.85 g/100 g and the soluble protein content and turbidity of the packing seawater increased by 1,927.21 mg/100 g and 3.24 McF, respectively. In the PET container, the glycogen content of the oysters decreased by 0.96 g/100 g and the soluble protein content and turbidity of the packing seawater increased by 1,674.75 mg/100 g and 0.98 McF, respectively. The reaction rate constants (K) were as follows: glycogen content, -0.18 (PE) and -0.10 (PET); soluble protein content, 0.29 (PE) and 0.26 (PET); and turbidity, 0.41 (PE) and 0.06 (PET). These results suggested that PET can be used as a new packaging container material for raw oysters because the quality is maintained and it offers more convenient handling during distribution.

The food cold chain refers to a technology and distribution supply chain applied to maintain a constant temperature suitable for the product from production (harvest) to delivery to consumers. In particular, in Korea, the insulation material used in the food cold chain is mostly EPS (Expanded Polystyrene), which is used as a transport container for various food cold chains. However, according to the government's eco-friendly policy, companies charge environmental contributions to the use of EPS, but due to its low price and convenience of handling, it is still used as a container for delivering food. In this study, in order to measure the domestic delivery environment of general refrigerated foods, changes in impact, temperature, and humidity during transport of the EPS packaging system containing foods and ice pack refrigerants were measured. As a result, there were 2?3 sections in which a high impact force of 40 G or more was generated during transport. This can cause damage to the product and EPS container. The difference in temperature and humidity changes by parcel transport routes is more than 30%, so it is necessary to present accurate standards for the domestic cold chain distribution environment. As a result of microbial experiments. the transportation period had a dominant effect on the increase in total viable count and E. coli count.

This study aimed to determine the quality characteristics of fermented wine using Nuruk according to the type of aging container (jar or stainless container) and aging time. Alcohol analysis was initiated at 40.4~39.3%, and alcohol contents in the jar and stainless container decreased as aging time increased. Volatile acid content slightly increased in the reduced pressure (RP) jar and stainless container and showed a different result in the atmospheric pressure (AP) container. Amount of acetic acid did not change either in the jar or stainless container as aging time increased. In the case of 2-thiobarbituric acid (TBA), RP was lower than AP after distillation, and TBA value did not change much either in the jar or stainless container. In the case of fusel alcohol by aging time, n-propanol content did not increase either in the jar or stainless container as aging time increased. Iso-butanol content was reduced in the jar but did not change in the stainless container. In the AP container, more aromatic components were measured on the 180th day of aging time than after distillation. High boiling point aromatic components increased in particular. In the stainless container, more aromatic components were generated on the 180th day of aging, but their amount was relatively lower than in the jar. In the jar aging sensory test, the sensory score at RP 50 cmHg was highest on the 180th day of aging. In the case of AP $80^{\circ}C$ liquor, sensory score on the 180th day was the most improved.
