Kinds of ingredient of Chinese cabbage kimchi were standardized by the sensory evaluation, chemical properties, and functional properties of antimutagenic effect and inhibitory effect on the growth of AGS human gastric adenocarcinoma cells. The kinds of ingredient in control kimchi from the previous study, but Gueun salt instead of Chunil salt, exhibited better overall acceptability and less moldy smell and moldy flavor than any other kinds of ingredient added chinese cabbage kimchi in the taste. The kimchi showed chemical properties of properly fermented kimchi, pH 4.3 and acidity 0.72% and also contained 1.6 g% reducing sugar and $2.2{\times}10^8\;CFU/mL$ Leuconostoc sp. The juice of standardized kimchi with the above kinds of ingredient showed not only high antimutagenicity (74%) against aflatoxin $B_1$ in Salmonella typhimurium TA100 but also strong inhibitory effect (60%) on the growth of AGS human gastric adenocarcinoma cells in SRB assay. From the taste, chemical and functional properties, the standardized kinds of ingredient were Youngyang taeyangcho red pepper powder, anchovy juice, Gueun salt, Garak sin 1 ho Chinese cabbage.

In order to standardize the chinese cabbage kimchi, the preparation method, kinds of ingredients and levels of the ingredients were determined by the statistical survey of literatures obtained from cooking books, scientific papers and kimchi manufacturing factory. The standardized ingredient kinds and ratio of chinese cabbage kimchi were $13.0{\pm}7.0$ of radish, $2.0{\pm}0.5$ of green onion, $3.5{\pm}0.8\;or\;2.5{\m}0.3$ of red pepper powder, $1.4{\pm}0.4$ of garlic, $0.6{\pm}0.3$ of ginger, $2.2{\pm}1.6$ of anchovy juice, and $1.0{\pm}0.3$ of sugar in the proportion of 100 salted chinese cabbage, and the final salt concentration was adjusted to 2.7% using salt. Red pepper powder level was quite different from the literature sources, so sensory evaluation, chemical properties and antimutagenic effect and growth inhibitory effect on human cancer cells of the kimchi samples were studied to decide the proper ratio of the red pepper powder as an ingredient. Red pepper powder 3.5% (average level for kimchi manufacturing factory) added kimchi was better in quality than red pepper powder 2.5% (average level for cooking books and scientific papers) added kimchi in sensory evaluation and chemical properties. The juice of red pepper powder 3.5% added kimchi showed not only the stronger antimutagenicity against aflatoxin $B_1$ in Salmonella typhimurium TA100 but also the higher inhibitory effect on the growth of AGS human gastric adenocarcinoma cells in SRB assay than that of red pepper powder 2.5% added kimchi. In conclusion, the standardized ratio of the ingredients was 13.0 radish, 2.0 green onion, 3.5 red pepper powder, 1.4 garlic, 0.6 ginger, 2.2 anchovy juice, 1.0 sugar, and 2.7 final salt concentration in the proportion of 100 salted chinese cabbage.

Aspergillus spp. is widely spread in the world on feeds and foods. They have been known to produce aflatoxins, which are mutagenic and carcinogenic to humans. The objective of this study was to determine the optimum gamma-irradiation dose for controling the growth of Aspergillus spp. to ensure safety of feeds. Four species fungal spore ($10^7$ spore/mL) exposed to 0, 1, 3, 5, 7 and 10 kGy of gamma radiation were inhibited in their growth and $AFB_1$ productivity by ${\geq}5\;kGy$. Meantime, the growth of fungal inoculated on feeds was inhibited at ${\geq}3\;kGy$. However, $AFB_1$ presented in aqueous solution was not be inactivated completely by ${\leq}10\;kGy$ irradiation. These results indicate that Aspergillus spp. on feeds could be controlled by 5 kGy gamma-irradiation but detoxification of $AFB_1$ demands a higher dose of gamma-irradiation (${\geq}10\;kGy$).
