This study was carried out to analyze the characteristics of Dongchimi(watery radish kimchi) juice while fermenting the samples prepared at various salt concentrations(2, 2.5, and 3 %) and fermentation temperatures(4$^{\circ}C$, 12$^{\circ}C$, and 12$^{\circ}C$ for 12 hr followed by 4$^{\circ}C$). The changes in colour, total vitamin C and free sugar contents were analyzed, and sensory evaluation was performed. As the fermentation proceeded, the “L” value was decreased and “a” and “b” values were increased in all samples. Total vitamin C contents increased up to 26-33 days and decreased thereafter in the samples fermented at 4$^{\circ}C$ and those fermented at 12$^{\circ}C$ followed by 4$^{\circ}C$. In Dongchimi fermented at 12$^{\circ}C$, vitamin C contents increased up to 12-15 days. Glucose, fructose and sucrose were detected in Dongchimi juice. The total content of free sugars in Dongchimi juice was the highest in the samples fermented at 12$^{\circ}C$ followed by 4$^{\circ}C$ . Sensory evaluation was performed for sour taste, salty taste, carbonated flavor, offensive odor, overall preference and clearance of the juice. In overall preference, Dongchimi juice fermented at 12$^{\circ}C$ followed by 4$^{\circ}C$ was the best.

This study investigated the probiotic properties and physiological activities of Korean fermented foods such as sikhae, young radish kimchi, and bean-curd dregs. Among the isolated lactic acid bacteria, Pediococcus inopinatus BZ4, Lactobacillus plantarum SH1, Lactobacillus brevis SH14, Pediococcus pentosaceus YMT1, and Leuconostoc mesenteroides YMT6 demonstrated a greater than 60% survival rate at pH 2.5, along with an excellent survival rate even at 0.3% bile acid. These five bacteria showed strong flocculation ability in autoaggregation and coaggregation tests, indirectly clustering useful micro-organisms and inhibiting the attachment of pathogenic bacteria. In a cell surface hydrophobicity test, these bacteria showed adhesion to three solvents (ethyl acetate, chloroform, and xylene) and high hydrophobicity, thereby indicating excellent indirect cell adhesion to intestinal cells. The cell-free supernatants and intracellular extracts of the five lactic acid bacteria showed antioxidative activity in the form of 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl and 2,2'-Azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) radical scavenging ability and lipid peroxidation inhibition. Antimicrobial activities were also observed in four pathogenic bacteria, namely E. coli KCTC 2571, H. pylori HPKCTC B0150, L. monocytogenes KCTC 13064, and S. aureus KCTC 1916. These results demonstrate that these five lactic acid bacteria could be used as probiotics with antioxidant and antimicrobial properties.

Yulmoo Mul-kimchi was prepared by fermentation of the mixture of 1 part of leafy radish and 2.75 parts of water. It is thought that during the kimchi fermentation both the biosynthesis and destruction of ascorbic acid occurred at the same time. So the ascorbic acid content in Kimchi broth was strongly influenced by the environment of the processing period. In the present studies, an attempt had been made to elucidate the effect of water quality on the content of ascorbic acid and the population change of microorganism during Mul-kimchi fermentation. Five kinds of water such as tap water, an underground water, one commercially available processed water, distilled water and triply distilled water were examined. Nevertheless there were no differences in the population of microorganism and the pattern of acid formation among the five different kind of waters, a large variation of ascorbic acid content was observed. The ascorbic acid content of Kimchi prepared with triply distilled water showed the highest of 7.2 mg% in contrast to 3.37 mg% in tap water kimchi, and 5.72 mg% in the kimchi using underground water which has relatively high concentration of Ca. These results suggested that pure water free of metal ions might prevent the destruction of ascorbic acid during the fermentation. The considerable amount of ascorbic acid in the Kimchi with underground water might be due to Ca ion in the water.

Microbiological characteristics of low salt Mul-kimchi was examined. Mul-kimchi was prepared by mixing of radish (25%), green onion (2.4%), red pepper (1.9%), garlic (1.9%) and salt (0, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 2.5, 3.0%) in water and fermented at 4, 15 and $25^{\circ}C$ for 10 days, respectively. During fermentation period, total cell, Leuconostoc sp., Lactobacillus sp., Streptococcus sp., Pediococcus sp., coliform bacteria, gram (-) bacteria and yeast cell number were counted on their selection media. The microbes in Mul-kimchi were isolated and identified. Total cell number increased as salt concentration decreased and fermentation temperature increased. Lactic acid bacteria showed the highest number in 1.0% salt concentration. Yeast cell number increased with increase of salt concentration. Lactobacillus sp. were identified Lactobacillus plantarum and L. pentosus in Mul-kimchi containing $0.2{\sim}1.0%$ salt while those of Mul-kimchi containing 3.0% salt were Lactobacillus plantarum and L. brevis. The other lactic acid bacteria were identified Leuconostoc citrum, Leu.mes.ssp.mesenteroides/dextranicum and streptococcus facium in Mul-kimchi containing $0{\sim}3.0%$ salt while Pediococcus sp. was not detected. Gram-negative Aeromonas hydrophila, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Pseu. aureofaciens and yeast Candida pelliculosa, Cryptococcus laurentii were identified in the Mul-kimchi.

In order to study the feasibility of industrial application of Kimchi juice separation-pasteurization method, a pilot scale Kimchi pasteurizer was designed and fabricated. The apparatus consisted of five sections: Kimchi juice separation-mixing, holding, precooling and cooling sections. Stainless steel pipelengths required for the heat exchanging sections were determined based on an equation, $W{\;}C_p{\;}T{\;}={\;}U(2{\;}RL){\;}T_{1m}$. Overall heat transfer coefficients in preheating, holding, precooling and cooling sections were 875, 1398, 2036, and $288{\;}kcal/m^2h^{\circ}C$ at the flow rate of 4 l/min, respectively, and temperature profiles of each section were in good agreement with those predicted from design criteria. A preliminary test using Chinese radish Kimchi demonstrated that this method can effectively be used in commercial processing of kimchi.

An imaging plate(IP) detector, a two-dimensional digital radiation detector that can acquire image of radioactivity distribution in a sample, has been applied in many fields; for industrial radiography, medical diagnosis, X-ray diffraction test, etc. In this study, the possibility of IP detector to be used lot measuring radioactivity of sample is explored using its high sensitivity, higher spatial resolution, wider dynamic range and screen uniformity for several kinds radiations. First, the IP detector is applied to measure the surface uniformity for area source. Surface uniformity is measured rapidly and nondestructively by measuring the radioactivity distribution of common standard area source$(^{241}Am)$. Next, the IP is employed to study the possibility of measuring an extremely low-level activity of environmental sample. For this study the screen uniformity, shield effect of background radiation, linear dynamic range and fading effect of the IP detector is investigated. The potato, banana, radish and carrot samples are chosen to measure ultra low-level activity of $^{40}K$ isotope. The efficiency calibration of IP detector is carried out using the standard source.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the use and perception of adults concerning sprout vegetables. Self-administered questionnaires were collected from 516 residents in the Daegu and Gyeonbuk areas. When purchasing sprout vegetables, respondents answered that they considered freshness, eco green, and price. Consumers purchased sprout vegetables to make bibimbap (58.9%) and salad (29.3%). Approximately 81.4% of respondents answered that they purchased sprout vegetables in grocery and department stores. Once or twice per month was the highest purchase frequency for sprout vegetables. Regarding knowledge of sprout vegetables, radish sprout score was the highest (3.14), whereas preference was highest for barley grass (3.00). When asked how much they like sprout vegetable menus, subjects responded that they liked bibimbap (3.79), salad (3.73) and bibim noodles (3.58). As a result, popularization of sprout vegetables was based on product quality factor and sales promotion factor significantly influenced preference for sprout vegetable menus. To increase consumption of sprout vegetables, there is a need for hygiene and safety of sprout products and variations and improvement of quality.
