The sun-dried, refined, and processed salt (roasted and bamboo salt) manufactured in Chonbuk province were analyzed their chemical compositions and minerals including heavy metals for safety evaluation. Average content of each eomponent as the lowest and the highest were as follows-pH; 6.80 (refined) to 10.35 (bamboo), water content; 0.13% (bamboo) to 10.7% (sun-dried), sodium chloride; 96.6% (roasted) to 84.3% (sun-dried), 804; 0.59% (bamboo) to 3.0% (sun-dried), water insoluble matters; 0.001% (refined) to 1.98% (bamboo), acid inoluble matters; <0.001% (refined) to 0.21% (bamboo), calcium; 0.038% (refined) to 0.213% (sun-dried), magnesium; 0.111% (refmed) to 1.078% (sun-dried), lead; 0.45 ppm (refmed) to 1.15 ppm (bamboo). Cadminium, arsenic and mercury were not detected in all salt. As the analytical results, all salts were differtent in their chemical compositions and safe in view of heavy metals.

염관리법 제정 이후 천일염산업이 활성화되고 있다. 최근 미네랄과 칼슘 등의 풍부한 영양성분이 함유된 국내산 천일염의 판매량이 급증하고 있다. 우수한 품질이 알려지며 외국 시장에도 수출이 이루어지고 있다. 국내 외 시장에서 명품 천일염으로 자리잡기 위해서는 품질이 우선이지만 패키지 디자인도 중요하다. 국내 수입 천일염 패키지의 다양한 색상보다 국내 천일염 패키지의 색상은 관용색을 주로 사용하고 있어 주목성이 떨어진다. 패키지디자인에서 색상은 중요한 요소 중 하나이다. 컬러 마케팅이 중요한 요즘 한 번 구입한 브랜드를 재구입할 수 있도록 소비자의 머리에 제품의 색상이 각인될 수 있는 컬러 선택이 중요하다. 이를 위해 수입 천일염 패키지디자인의 색상과 국내산 천일염 패키지디자인의 색상을 비교분석하여 국내 천일염 패키지디자인의 개선 방향을 모색하고 더 나은 부가가치를 창출하고자 한다.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of various salts on the physical and fermentative characteristics of doughs and on the quality of white pan breads produced using purified salt, Korean solar salt, Chinese solar salt, Mexican solar salt, washed and dehydrated salt, roasted salt, and bamboo salt. In farinogram patterns, dough prepared using the purified salt had the highest water absorption. Extensograms showed that the resistances and resistance/extensibility ratios of the doughs with the solar salts were higher than those with the purified salt. In amylograms, the dough with the bamboo salt had the highest viscosity value. A specific volume was the smallest in the bread with the Korean solar salt (4.11 mL/g), while the largest with the Mexican solar salt (4.85 mL/g). A baking loss rate of the bread prepared with the Korean solar salt (10.34%) was less compared to other samples (10.91 $\sim$ 11.65%). The crust of the bread added with the Korean solar salt showed higher L value and lower a value while its crumb showed the highest b value. A sensory evaluation indicated that significant differences in some characteristics of the breads were observed in the breads prepared with the Korean solar salt and Mexican solar salt. However, flavor, taste, and overall acceptability showed no significant differences among all breads prepared with different salts.

Purified salt and several different types of sea salts showed comutagenicity in the presence of MNNG (N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine). However, the salts exhibited anti-cancer effects in HCT-116 human colon carcinoma cells and AGS human gastric adenocarcinoma cells. Sea salt showed less comutagenicity effects than purified salt. French sea salt (Salines de Guerande) and Korean sea salt I, which contained higher levels of minerals, showed less comutagenicity. In MTT assay, when HCT-116 and AGS cancer cells were treated with the salts, French sea salt (36% and 34%) and Korean sea salt I (35% and 33%) showed higher anticancer activities than Spanish sea salt (33% and 31%), Italian sea salt (29% and 27%), Korean sea salt II (22% and 22%), or purified salt (18% and 15%) at a salt concentration of 1%. French sea salt and Korean sea salt I also showed better anticancer activities than the other salt samples at a low concentration of 0.5% (p<0.05). Apoptosis related genes of Bax and Bcl-2 were regulated by the treatment of the salt in the colon cancer cells. French sea salt and Korean sea salt I especially increased Bax mRNA expression, but decreased Bcl-2 expression, indicating that they can induce apoptosis of the cancer cells. From the experimental results, sea salt showed better health functional effects than the purified salt, and French sea salt and Korean sea salt I which contained high levels of Ca, K, and Mg showed better effects.

Mineral contents of various salts were determined by the ICP-OES method. Bamboo salt (baked 9 times) contained more potassium, calcium, magnesium, and manganese, compared to purified and solar salts. Bamboo salt had a pH of 11.04, higher than those of purified (6.29) and solar (9.13) salts. Contents of [$OH^-$] were measured by using the FT-IR spectra. Bamboo salt exhibited higher reduction potential and contained more OH groups than purified and solar salts. The reduction peak of bamboo salt was observed to be about three times broader than that of solar salt in terms of redox potential amperometry. At a salt concentration of 25%, bamboo salt showed higher radical scavenging activities (81.4%) than solar (5.0%) and purified (2.0%) salts, as evaluated by DPPH assay. Bamboo salt revealed alkaline property, more OH groups and antioxidative activity.

To investigate the effect of a solar salt on Kimchi fermentation, Chinese cabbages were brined with four-years aged solar salt (FS), one-year aged solar salt (OS), and purified salt (PS). The Kimchi was fermented at $7^{\circ}C$ for 33 days. The changes in pH and acidity of the Kimch brined with PS was slower than those of Kimchis brined with FS and OS. In the Kimchis with FS and OS, lactic acid bacteria (LAB) counts increased from 7.10~7.22 log CFU/mL at 0 day to 9.26~9.42 log CFU/mL at 12 days, after which counts slightly decreased to 8.04~8.75 log CFU/mL by 33 days of fermentation. The LAB counts of the kimchi with PS slowly increased from 7.24 log CFU/mL at 0 day to 8.99 log CFU/mL at 27 days, after then which counts sharply decreased to 7.92 log CFU/mL by 33 days of fermentation. Yellowness (b) color values of the kimchi with PS (59.10) was higher than the Kimchi with FS (53.68) and the Kimchi with OS (53.77). Hardness of the Kimchi with FS was more firm than the other Kimchis after 33 days storage. Sensory evaluation of the Kimchi with FS showed higher score than that of the other Kimchis.

Physiochemical and sensory properties of muskmelon pickles were investigated under salting condition using deep seawater salt, sun-dried salt and purified salt. The changes of weight, shrinkage rate salinity and pH of muskmelon during salting time were almost nothing shown. Turbidity of pickle juice was the highest in salt solution using sun-dried salt and was almost nothing shown in deep seawater salt and purified salt. Solid content of pickle juice was higher in pickle juice using sun-dried salt than deep seawater salt and purified salt. The calcium content of muskmelon salted by deep seawater salt and sun-dried salt were increased to 4.3 times and 3.7 times, respectively. Hardness became a little higher on muskmelon using deed seawater salt ann sun dried salt than purified salt. In organoleptic result, color, flavor, taste, texture and overall palatability of muskmelon salted by deep seawater salt became higher in other salt solution (sun-friend salt and purified salt).

Recipes for cookies and muffins made with soybean paste and sun-dried salt were established and characteristics of the foods were investigated. On Hunter's color scale, 'L' values decreased and brightness was lowered as additive levels increased, whereas the 'a' value(redness) increased and the 'b' value(yellowness) decreased. The hardness of a control muffin was 1843 g and this increased as additive levels rose. Cookies showed the same tendency. Elasticity was not proportional to paste content whereas crispness increased as additive levels increased. Sensory evaluations of cookies and muffins with different soybean paste contents(0-8%, w/v) showed that additive at 1% (w/v) was best and additive at 8%(w/v) was unacceptable. All products scored poorly 48 h after preparation; freshness needs to be investigated further.

This study was carried out to observe the property changes of radishes salted with different salt (deep sea water and sun-dried salt). Shrinkage rate, salinity and texture were measured. The shrinkage rate values of radishes salted with deep seawater salt solution were higher than those salted with sun-dried salt in 8 hr after salting. The salinity of radishes salted with deep seawater salt solution was also higher than those salted with sun-dried salt. The jelly strength decreased during salting period and 5％ salting radish were lower than 3％ ones. The softness and hardness of radishes salted with deep seawater salt were higher than those salted with sun-dired salt as well.

우리나라의 대표적인 염장식품인 새우젓은 새우와 소금만을 원료로 하여 제조하는데, 전통적으로 새우젓 제조시에는 천일염을 사용해 왔으나, 최근 수입산 소금의 유입이 급증하고있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 소금의 종류가 새우젓 숙성발효에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해, 천일염(국산, 중국산)과 정제염으로 재래식방법인 염도 27% 새우젓을 제조한 후 2$0^{\circ}C$ 항온기에서 180일간 숙성 및 발효가 진행되는 동안 이화학적 특성을 분석하였다.(중략)
