The effect of entrapping isothiocyanates extracted from horseradish root by microencapsulation on the shelf life of Myeongran jeotgal was evaluated. The total viable cell count of Myeongran jeotgal reached $10^7CFU/g$ (initial decomposition level) on days 43 and 45 of treatment with 1.0% and 2.0% microcapsules (4.0 mg/mL), respectively, compared with day 21 of storage at $5^{\circ}C$ as the control treatment. The proteolytic bacterial counts of Myeongran jeotgal treated with 1.0% and 2.0% microcapsules were $2.0{\times}10^5$ and $9.5{\times}10^4CFU/g$, respectively, with 2 and 3 log reductions compared with the control count ($1.1{\times}10^7CFU/g$) on day 33 of storage at $5^{\circ}C$. The total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) level reached 30.0 mg% (initial decomposition level) on days 47 and 48 of treatment with 1.0% and 2.0% microcapsules, respectively, compared with day 33 of storage at $5^{\circ}C$ as the control. Based on the sensory evaluation, the freshness of Myeongran jeotgal treated with 1.0% microcapsules was best compared with the other treatments. Based on the total viable cell count, TVB-N and sensory evaluation, the shelf life of Myeongran jeotgal treated with 1.0% microcapsules was extended by 22, 16 and 15 days, respectively, compared with the control at $5^{\circ}C$.
