Abstract

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of sub-atmosphere on the fermentation and heat treatment after fermentation of Kimchi. When the results from the conditions of atmosphere and under-atmosphere were compared, the growth of lactic acid bacteria was increased but the growth of aerobic bacteria was decreased under 560mmHg and 360mmHg. The number of total microorganism was decreased and simultaneously damaged to the tissue of Kimchi under 0mmHg. Kimchi fermented under 560mmHg and 360mmHg had longer storage duration than that of atmosphere. Among the several conditions, the result of heat treatment under 460-260mmHg was the best. the treatment for 4 minutes at 80$^{\circ}C$, 2 minutes at 100$^{\circ}C$, and 1 minute at 120$^{\circ}C$ was good in tissue states and storage.
