Contents of insoluble(IDF), soluble dietary fiber (SDF), and total dietary fiber(TDF) of 30 foods which are consumed commonly by 80 Koeran male college students were determined by Prosky and colleagues' enzymatic-gravimentric method. Foods with highest intake frequency were rice, Kimch'i, and red pepper powder. TDF, IDF, and SDF contents of rice were 0.96, 0.59 and 0.37g/100g wet wt., respectively and tose of Kimch'i were 3.07, 2.19 and 0.88g/100g wet wt., respectively. Red pepper powder contained high amount of TDF(39.37) and IDF (33.13g/100g wet wt.). The TDF content of the 30 foods ranged from 0.70 to 39.37g/100g wet wt. Red pepper (39.37), dried laver(31.36), and dried sea mustard (37.77g/100g wet wt.) contained high amounts of TDF. The IDF content of the 30 foods ranged from 0.13 to 33.13g/100g wet wt. Red pepper powder (33.13), dried laver(15.55) and sesame(15.43g/100g wet wt.) contained high amounts of IDF. SDF of the 30 foods ranged from 0.01 to 25.66g/100g wet wt. Dried sea mustard(25.66), dried laver(15.81), coffee powder (13.17), and garlic(8.72g/100g wet wt.) were good sources of SDF. % ratio of SDF to TDF of the 30 foods was lower than 50% except soybean curd(94.27%), coffee powder (88.93%), garlic(86.17%), dried sea mustard(67.94%), and dried laver(50.41%). It is recommended to increase intake of seaweeds in order to supply TDF adn SDF properly.

This study was conducted to analyze dietary fiber content of 113 common Korean foods. Content of total dietary fiber(TDF) in vegetables, mushrooms, fruite, and seaweeds was determined by enzymatic-gravimetric method developed by Prosky et al. and adopted by AOAC. The average TDF content of the foods analyzed was 3.62$\pm$2.09% for green vegetables, 5.90$\pm$7.61% for light vegetables, 14.27$\pm$18.11% for mushrooms, 3.02$\pm$4.48% for fruits, and 11.39$\pm$12.68% for seaweeds. The foods containing the highest TDF values in the food groups were boiled radish leaves(10.84%) in green vegetables, dried braken(38.36%) in light vegetables, dried juda's ear(18.18%) in mushrooms except dried manna lichen(52.87%), dried persimon(17.73%) in fruits and dried sea mustard(37.77%) in seaweeds. Dried Seaweeds such as sea mustard (37.77%), sea tangle(29.30%), and laver(31.36%) were good sources of dietary fiber. When we consider the health and therapeutic benefits of dietary fiber, it is recommended to continue to consume traditional Korean diet which are mainly composed of vegetables rather than animal foods and to increase consumption of dried mushrooms and seaweeds which contain high content of TDF.

In spite of the global-class aquaculture and fishing technology of our country, the processing technologies are lags behind the other nations relatively. The processed marine products are mainly frozen foods, canned goods, salty food (fermented fish products), fish paste products (boiled fish paste), and we can see that the high-value dehydrated foods by drying are very few. These problems are considered to be caused directly by the lack of drying technologies. This paper is concerned to the experimental results of drying heat transfer characteristics for the green energy type vacuum dryer for the high quality sea foods production.

In this study, a total of 70 seaweed names among various kinds of seaweeds, including dried and powdered foods, were investigated by examining Korean foods literature published during 1450${\sim}$1950. There were 14 kinds of sea mustard, 13 kinds of laver, 3 kinds of kerp, 6 kinds of sea staghorn, 15 kinds of green laver, 1 kind of Ecklonia cava, 11 kinds of agar and 7 seaweeds classified as other. It was also found that seaweed was used as a main ingredient, secondary ingredient, or a garnish in a total of 74 traditional Korean foods. The seaweed foods appearing in the literature were classified by a traditional Korean food classification system according to cooking method. These traditional seaweed foods were placed into 6 categories including main dishes, side dishes, tteok lyou and hangwa lyou. Finally, a database was established in order to provide a research basis for traditional Korean seaweed foods.

The purpose of this report is to present a list of Korean foods containing histamine, that is known to cause food allergy and chronic urticaria. For the measurement of histamine in foods, the application of spectrofluorimeter is used. Among the food groups, sea foods (mackerel, pacific saury, spanish mackerel, anchovy, hair, tail, tuna) contain most high amount of histamine, and the contents of see weeds (sea mustard, laverare) are also high. Milk and milk products (mozzarella cheese, yogurt) contain more histamine than animal meats. Plant foods like cereals, vegetables or fruits contain much less histamine than other food groups, except spinach. The contents of dried sesame, sesame oil, and mugicha, green tea, ginseng tea, mayonnaise, tomato ketchup are relatively high. This paper will be used as a fundamental guideline in planning dietary management of allergy and for the operational plans for the future nutrition education intervention. Because the foods rich in histamine may cause allergy-like syptoms, it may be reqoiled to label the foods containing histamine.

In this study, changes in the physicochemical properties and functional components of uncooked foods, including carrots, cabbage, shiitake (Lentinus edodes) and white button (Agaricus bisporus) mushrooms, sea mustard, and laver treated with electrolyzed water were investigated. No changes were observed in the primary compositions of any of the materials that were hot air- or freeze-dried after being treated with electrolyzed water. The lightness (L), redness (a), and yellowness (b) values of the carrots, shiitake, and laver were not affected by drying, while changes did occur in the cabbage (L-, a-, and b-values), mushrooms (a-value), and sea mustard (b-value) specimens that were hot air- or freeze-dried following the treatments with electrolyzed water. The dietary fiber contents of all the materials increased when they were hot air-dried. Vitamin C content decreased when the samples were treated with alkalic electrolyzed water. No changes occurred in the lectin, $\beta$-carotene, or total phenolic compound contents after the electrolyzed water treatments, suggesting that electrolyzed water could be used effectively as a pasteurization step for uncooked carrots, cabbage, shiitake and white button mushrooms, sea mustard, and laver.

A total of 31 commercial dried marine food products, consisting of 14 fishes, 2 shellfishes and 2 seaweeds species were analyzed for their contents of precusors of N-nitrosamine such as dimethylamine(DMA), trimethylamine(TMA), trimethylamine oxide (TMAO), betaine and nitrate and nitrite nitrogen as factors of N-nitrosamine formation. Carcinogenic N-nitrosamines were extracted by a steam distillation apparatus and were analyzed for their components using a gas chromatography-thermal energy analyzer. N-nitrosodimethylamine(NDMA) was confirmed by a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The contents of betaine nitrogen in samples were in the range of $5.2{\sim}373.8mg\%$ and were significantly higher than tertiary amines such as TMA and TMAO. DMA nitrogen in those samples was in the range of trace-31.2ppm and was high, in the dried shark(31.2ppm), alaska pollack($22.9{\sim}24.3ppm$) and octopus($17.9{\sim}18.4ppm$). In dried laver and sea mustard, however, amines were not detected at all. The levels of nitrate nitrogen in the dried marine samples ranged from zero to 16.8ppm and were high in the dried stingray(16.8ppm), alaska pollack(16.3ppm) and squid($2.2{\sim}12.4ppm$), but were less than 1.0 ppm in other samples. The levels of nitrite nitrogen were lower than those of nitrate nitrogen and it was not detected in dried sea cucumber, laver and sea mustard. Twenty eight of 31 samples contained NDMA($range=1.2{\sim}86.0ppb$), which was the only volatile N-nitroso compound found. The NDMA levels of dried stingray($2.8{\sim}86.0ppb$), alaska pollack($8.2{\sim}55.5ppb$), squid($3.3{\sim}53.2ppb$), yellow corvenia($45.9ppb$) and plain dried shrimp($15.4{\sim}17.9ppb$) were high. However, it was not detected in dried sea cucumber, laver and sea mustard. Samples, containing high levels of NDMA, also contained high nitrate and nitrite nitrogen. From above results, it can be concluded that nitrate and nitrite were major factors for the formation of NDMA in dried marine food products.

This study was conducted to evaluate the sanitary quality of sun dried sea foods being distributed in the markets located in Busan city. Twenty one kinds of sun dried sea foods, 9 kinds of fish and shellfish, 5 kinds of mollusca and 7 kinds of seaweed were examined during the Period from September to December in 1970. For the evaluation of sanitary contents of sanitary indicative bacteria such as coliform group, fecal coliform, fecal streptococci and enterococci, and plate counts were determined. The results obtained were as follows: 1. Through out all the samples examined, the numbers of fecal streptococci and enterocccci were much greater than those of coliform group and fecal coliform. 2. Generally, the contents of enterococci exceeded MPN of 1,000 per 100 grams through all samples examined, while fecal coliform MPN'S were less than 18. 3. The median value of coliform group MPN was 78 and those of fecal streptococci MPN was 3,300 per 100 grams, The median value of the plate counts was $9.9\times10^4$ per gram, 4. Bacterial densities of the foods which had many chances to come into contact with hands were much higher than those of other foods which had not. 5. The bacterial contamination rate of seaweed was much lower than those of fish and shellfish. 6. No correlation between the numbers of sanitary indicative bacteria and plate counts was observed.
