A container (22) includes a shell (24) made from a polymer, for example PET, and incorporating a catalyst, for example a palladium catalyst. A closure (40) incorporates a plug which includes a source of hydrogen, for example a hydride. In use, with container (22) including a beverage and closure (40) in position, the headspace in the container will be saturated with water vapor. This vapor contacts the hydride associated with plug (42) and as a result the hydride produces molecular hydrogen which migrates into the polymer matrix of shell (24) and combines with oxygen which may have entered the container through its permeable walls. A reaction between the hydrogen and oxygen takes place, catalysed by the catalyst, and water is produced. Thus, oxygen which may ingress the container is scavenged and the contents of the container are protected from oxidation.

본 발명은 키토산을 효모에 첨가함으로써 자가분해를 촉진시킴을 특징으로 하는 효모 추출물의 제조방법에 관한 것이다. The present invention relates to a method for preparing a yeast extract characterized by promoting autolysis by adding chitosan to yeast. 효모의 자가분해를 위해서, 지금까지는 유기용매가 주로 첨가되어 왔다. 그러나, 유기 용매는 자연산 물질이 아니므로 효모 추출물이 식품에 사용될때는 예를들면, 유기 용매가 완전히 제거되어야만 하는 문제와 같은 문제점들이 있다. For the self-decomposition of yeast, organic solvents have been mainly added until now. However, since the organic solvent is not a natural substance, when the yeast extract is used in food, there are problems such as, for example, a problem that the organic solvent must be completely removed. 본 발명에 따르면, 효모의 자가분해를 촉진하기 위해 자연물질로부터 유도된 키토산을 사용하여 우수한 효모 추출물을 수득할 수 있다. According to the present invention, an excellent yeast extract can be obtained using chitosan derived from natural substances to promote the autolysis of yeast.

Procedure to remove water from food

Method of preserving food

Disclosed is a food preserving method comprising the steps of: adding to the food plant extracts containing flavonoids and/or polyphenols; wrapping the food with a food wrapping material which is capable of radiating far infrared rays and absorbing ethylene gas; and keeping the wrapped food at a relatively low temperature. The far infrared radiating ceramic causes the activation of the enzyme in the food; elimination of ethylene gas and other undesired gas from the food; and sterilization of the food. The plant extract applied to the food prevents the oxidation of the food. The cooperative effect of the wrapping material and the plant extract applied to the food assures that discoloration, appearance of oil or fat on the food surface, water dripping and degradation of taste are prevented for an elongated period.
