This study was performed to know whether there is any change of physiological activity in DLMJ which is inoculated by lactic acid bacteria. Lactic acid bacteria were isolated from Dolsan leaf mustard Kimchi (DLMK) at $20^{\circ}C$. In the optimum ripening period, the population of Leuconostoc and Lactobacilli in the DLMK were found to be high. The Leuconostoc, Lactobacilli and Lactococci strains were identified as Leuconostoc mesenteroides, Leuconostoc gelidum, Weissella confusa, Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus raffinolactis, Lactococcus lactis and Weissella confusa using the Biolog system. The most predominant strain which was isolated from DLMK was Weissella confusa. As the results of the phylogenetic analysis using 16s rDNA sequence, the Weissella confusa turned out to be Weissella kimchii, with 99.0% similarity. To investigated the change of physiological activity in DLMJ by lactic acid bacteria, 7 predominant strains inoculated to DLMJ (Dolsan Leaf Mustard Juice). The cytotoxicity was found to be under $19.55\%$ all cases. Also, the antioxidative activity of the DLMJ treated with lactic acid bacteria was very low, which might have been due to the reduced antioxidative phytochemicals during the preparation of the sterile sample. The ACE inhibiting activity of DLMJ by inoculation with Weissella kimchii was shown to be the highest ($94.0\%$). This could be that the degradation of sulfur containing materials in DLMJ by Weissella kimchii gave rise to ACE inhibiting activity.

Changes in antioxidative activity and Angiotensin converting enzyme(ACE) inhibitory activity in juice prepared from Dolsan leaf mustard kimchi (DLMK) ar various fermentation temperatures were investigated. Antioxidative activity of juice from optimally ripened DLMK at 20 and 3$0^{\circ}C$ showed 80 and 83%, respectively. Juice from 10-day fermented DLMK at 3$0^{\circ}C$ showed 62% inhibitory activity against the ACE. In the juice fermented DLMK at 2$0^{\circ}C$~3$0^{\circ}C$, physiological activity was higher than that of the 4~1$0^{\circ}C$. In particular, optimally ripened DLMK at 3$0^{\circ}C$ showed the highest physiological activity. The physiological activity in DLMK juice at the fermentation period increased significantly with an increase in the growth of microbes. Consequently, a maximum physiological activity was shown at the maximum cell number. These results suggest that the microorganisms in DLMK juice would play an important role in the physiological activity.

Natural antimicrobial activities in leaf mustard Dolsan(Brassica juncea) were evaluated for food preservation. Antimicrobial activities and changes in volatile allylisothiocyanate(AIT) concentration were examined during incubation of leaf mustard homogenate for 72 hours at $30^{\circ}C$. The concentration of volatile AIT was highest at 2 hours of incubation. Antimicrobial activities, which were insignificant in raw homogenate without incubation, were occurred at 21 hours and were showed highest at 48~72 hours of incubation. Water-pretreated extract(WPE) showed the antimicrobial activity by 1.2~1.4 times higher than the water extract. Ethylacetate fraction of leaf mustard showed high antimicrobial activities. The WPE had strong antimicrobial activities against Salmonella typhimurium and Staphylococcus aureus. Heat treatment of the WPE for 30 min at $121^{\circ}C$ did not lose the antimicrobial activities.

This study was carried out for investigate that physiological activity, quantification and qualitative were sinigrin of Dolsan leaf mustard pickle (DLMP) during storage. sinigrin contains high amounts of nutritional and medicinal compounds, which are important for maintaining optimum health. ACE inhibitory activity was ranged between 43.2 and 79.4%. DLMP methanol extracts demonstrated highest ACE inhibitory activity at 79.4% on day 14, whereas DLMP ethanol extracts demonstrated highest Angiotensin I-converting Enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity of 43.2% at day 0. The ${\alpha}-glucosidase$ inhibitory activity of positive control 0.02% (v/v) acarbose was 78%. The DLMP methanol extracts had the highest ${\alpha}-glucosidase$ inhibitory activity at 64.0% on day 14, whereas DLMP ethanol extracts had the lowest ${\alpha}-glucosidase$ inhibitory activity of 42.8% at day 28. Sinigrin was high in DLMP methanol extracts at $49.55{\mu}g/ml$ on day 14 of storage. Sinigrin standard was eluted at 2.73 min and MS analysis was m/z 283.03 along with fragment ions at m/z 204 and 149.06. These data show that sinigrin formed desulfo-glucosinolates $[M-SO_3-2H_2O+K+2H]^+$. Sinigrin concentration increased until day 14 and then decreased after that. DLMP methanol extracts had consistently higher sinigrin concentration than DLMP acetonitrile extracts during 28 days of storage.

To furnish basic data for the utilization of leaf mustard as a raw material of salted and fermented vegetable food, major chemical compositions of Dolsan Leaf Mustard (DLM) were investigated. The moisture and ash contents of DLM were 87.5% and 1.4%, respectively. Compared with other Korean traditional or Japanese leaf mustard, DIM contained more crude protein (3.8%) but less crude fat (0.3%) and crude fiber (1.3%). As an alkali food, leaf and leat stalk had pH of 5.7 and 5.8, titratable acidity of 687 and 318mg/100g and alkalinity of 2.5 and 5.2, respectively. The major free sugar in DLM was glucose and fructose was also detected in a small amount. The contents of total and reducing sugar in leaf and leaf stalk were 574, 352, 820 and 538mg%, respectively. Total amino acid contents of leaf and leaf stalk were 8.0 and 2.5% on wet basis. Although the amino acid compositions of leaf and leaf stalk were different each other, glutamic acid and proline were the major amino acids in both of the leaf and leaf stalk. Significantly higher amount (ca.10.3-fold) of free amino acid was present in leaf (3074mg%) than in leaf stalk (298mg%). Glutamic acid and aspartic acid were the major free amino acids and essential amino acid contents in leaf and leaf stalk were 869 and 68mg% being 22.9 and 28.3% of total free amino acids.

Myrosinase in leaf mustard was purified and characterized to furnish a grounding information for utilizing the pungent taste and the potential antimicrobial capability of Dolsan leaf mustard to enhance the taste and storage life of kimchi. When myrosinase was purified from leaf mustard through a series of DEAE Sephadex, chromatofocusing and Con A Sepharose column chromatography, specific activity of the enzyme increased 7107-fold compared with that of crude enzyme preparation, and 18.8% yield was obtained. The purified myrosinase showed the optimum pH of 5.9, isoelectric point of 4.6, molecular weight of 129 kD, Km of 0.206 mM, and Vmax of $2.039\;{\mu}M{\cdot}min^{-1}{\cdot}mg\;protein^{-1}$, respectively. The optimum concentration of L-ascorbic for the maximum activity of the enzyme was 0.6 mM, and the enzyme activity decreased at a higher concentration of L-ascorbic acid than 0.6 mM, showing almost no enzyme activity at a L-ascorbic acid concentration of higher than 2.0 mM. Myrosinase activity in leaf mustard kimchi immediately after the kimchi was formulated was shown to be about 70 nmol/min/mg protein which decreased rapidly after 3 days of storage at $20^{\circ}C$, showing that less than half and almost none of the enzyme activity was retained in 4 and 10 days of storage, respectively.

The principal objective of this fundamental research was to analyze the physicochemical changes and sensory properties of Dolsan leaf mustard pickles (DMP) for the development of low-salt pickles in order to contribute to the diversification of food. The DMPs were stored at −2℃ for 90 days, with salinity maintained at 1.63% to 1.85%. The pH was decreased during storage, and the acidity was gradually increased for up to 60 days of storage, after which it was increased rapidly to 1.10. The L-values (lightness) from the stems were decreased during storage. The a-values (greenness) were increased, while the b-values (yellowness) were decreased. It was shown that the DMP had a progressive browning phenomenon and the number of lactic acid bacteria gradually decreased. The sensory evaluation showed that crunchy textures were decreased and touch textures were increased at 30 days. Therefore, Dolsan leaf mustard is suitable as a material for low-salt pickles during storage for 90 days. The results of the analysis of the physicochemical and sensory properties indicate that the optimal storage for DMP was maintained for up to 30 days.

This Study was tarried out to investigate the relationship ACE inhibitory activity and degradations of sulfur containing materials in Dolsan leaf mustard juice (DLMJ). The changes of sulfur containing materials which were treated with autolysis, myrosinase, ascorbate and papain were studied, as well as the changes of ACE inhibitory activity in DLMJ. At $37^{\circ}C$, sulfur contain-ing materials by autolysis decreased most rapidly from $0.43\%$ to $0.13\%$ in the second day. Conversely. ACE inhibitory activity increased most from $66\%$ to $87\%$. in the second day at $37^{\circ}C$. As myrosinase concentrations increased more, sulfur containing materials in DLMJ decreased more. The ACE inhibitory activities at 0, 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 Units of myrosinase for 240 min later were 70, 74, 75, 82, and $85\%$, respectively. At 1 mM ascorbate. concentrations of Sulfur containing materials in DLMJ decreased more significantly on the second day than on the other days. At 1 mM ascorbate for 6 days, ACE Inhibitory activity reached a maximum of about $92\%$. And, an increase of papain concentration was noted in accordance with a decreased sulfur containing materials. The maximum rate of AEC inhibitory activity at control, 3, 6, and 12 Units of papains treatments was shown as 70, 70, 75, and $78\%$ at 60 min, respectively. These results suggested that the degradation of sulfur containing materials led to the increase of ACE inhibitory activity. Consequently, it was suggested that ACE inhibiting was significantly related to the degradatives of sulfur containing materials.

The genetic relationships of 14 Dolsan leaf mustard (Brassica juncea) lines were analysed using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis. Thirty nine random primers were tested and seven primers which showed polymorphism were selected. The amplified fragments ranged from 0.2 to 3.5 kb in size. The number of bands amplified in each primer showed the variations ranging from 2 to 27, with an average of 8.7. Based on the UPGMA cluster analysis, 14 lines were separated into three groups. The results showed that RAPD analysis was useful in the genetic diversity and in the cross combination of the $F_1$ hybrid of leaf mustard.

The compositions of non-volatile organic acids, mineral, fiber and fatty acids of leaf mustard were investigated. Non-volatile organic acid contents were higher in leaf than in leaf stalk. Of non-volatile organic acids assayed malic acid was the most abundant in both leaf (79.1 mg%) and leaf stalk (46.4mg%), followed by L-ascorbic, oxalic, citric and succinic acids. Mineral contents were also higher in leaf than in leaf stalk. Both leaf and leaf stalk contained calcium most, followed by magnesium, sodium, iron, zinc and copper. It has also been found that leaf mustard contains more iron than any other Cruciferous vegetables reported. The major fatty acid of total lipid was $\alpha$-linolenir acid (63.2% in leaf, 55.3% in leaf stalk). The ratios of polyun-saturated fatty acids to saturated fatty acids (P/S ratio) were 4.1 in leaf and 2.9 in leaf stalk. The content of pectic substances, in terms of alcohol-insoluble solid, of leaf was 9.4% which was 1.4-fold higher than that of leaf stalk. Of pectic substances, hot soluble pectins (HWSP) were present most and followed by sodium hexametaphosphate soluble (HXSP) and HCI soluble pectins (HSP). Total dietary fiber content of mustard leaf was 2.68% and in general, higher content of total dietary fiber than leaf had. Neutral detergent fiber content was higher than acid detergent fiber, and cellulose was higher than hemicellulose by 2.1-fold in leaf stalk.
