To improve the quality of traditional Doeniang, the sea tangle, sea mustard, or anchovy powder were added to soybean paste and matured for 90 days. The quality and sensory evaluation of the Doenjang were analysed. The addition of anchovy showed higher fat and protein contents in the Doenjang. In the mineral contents, the sweet tangle and anchovy addition significantly increased Mg and K contents. The reducing sugar content showed 9.4% in the Doenjang prepared with sweet tangle and anchovy powder than 6.0% of the control. However, the pH and acidity were not showed any significantly difference at the 5% level by Duncan's multiple range test. The amino nitrogen content was 618.7 mg% in the anchovy Doeniang that is higher than 531.1 mg% of the control. The addition of sweet tangle and anchovy to the Doenjang showed higher score in the sensory evaluation.

This study compared the nutritional characteristics and antioxidant effects of sea mustards sourced from five different areas (Barammaegi, Gultongmeori, Chanmulgae, Johongtaek, and Goraedeung) in Taejongdae, Youngdo, Busan. The contents of total flavonoids and phenols and fatty acid composition were measured. To evaluate their antioxidant effects, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) assays were used. Acetone/methylene chloride (A+M) extracts from all the sea mustards contained higher amounts of total flavonoids and phenols than methanol (MeOH) extracts. Among the sea mustards obtained from the different areas, the total flavonoid and total phenolic content of the A+M extract of the sea mustard from Gultongmeori was 1.44±0.04 mg/g and 1.72±0.06 mg/g, respectively. In terms of the fatty acid composition, the Gultongmeori sea mustard had higher percentages of total n-6, total n-3, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, 20:5n-3), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6n-3) than the sea mustards from the other areas. The A+M extract of the sea mustard from Gultongmeori was more effective in terms of scavenging free radicals as compared with that of the other sea mustards, as assessed by the DPPH and ABTS assays (p<0.05). In a 120-minute reactive oxygen species (ROS) production assay, all the extracts tested decreased cellular ROS production induced by H₂O₂ compared to that produced by exposure to an extract-free control (p<0.05). The extracts from Barammaegi and Gultongmeori had a greater inhibitory effect on cellular ROS production. These results indicated that the antioxidant effects of sea mustards might be associated with a higher amount of flavonoids and phenols. This study suggests that food-processed products from sea mustard can be developed as functional foods for promoting health in the local population.

Seaweeds is a rich sources of dietary fibers exerting a number of physiological properties. However, the reported dietary fiber contents of seaweeds are not consistent and vary widely. Also. a limited number of studies on the biological effects of specific seaweeds have been reported. In this study, water-holding capacity, viscosity and antixidantive activity of major dietary seaweeds were measured to assess their physiological effects. Results showed that total dietary fiber contents ranged from 28 to 51% of dried weight, and large proportions of dietary fiber were insoluble fibers. Water-holding capacity was highest in sea mustard being 1310% , while laver, sea tangle, and green laver exhibited 943, 854 and 815%, respectively. The viscosity of seaweed samples was 20 to 40 cP in sea mustard and sea tangle, while laver and green laver possessed much lower values. All seaweed samples revealed a weak, albeit significant electron donating ability. Also, lipid peroxidation was reduced by 7 to 18%. However, there was no difference in antioxidative activity among seaweeds and sample concernations used. These results imply that most commonly used seaweeds possibly exert parts of their physiological effects through their water-holding, gel-forming , and/or antioxidative activities.

Seaweed Jellys(Muks) were prepared with sea mustard and sea tangle. Optimum storage condition was also investigated in terms of bacterial counts, pH, titratable acidity, gel strength and total volatile nitrogen(TVN) as soaking temperature and time in distilled water. Gel strength of Muk decreased, and TVN and baterial counts increased during storage in water. Seaweed Muk has a shelf life of 3 days at $32^{\circ}C$ in water and 15 days at $18^{\circ}C$. Shelf life of seaweed Muk with soy milk was 3 days at 18's and shorter than that of seaweed Muk without soy milk.

The difference on compositions of enzyme extracts which were produced with two kinds of enzyme, celluclast and pectinex, and from sea mustards prepared with two kinds of pretreatments, heating and non-heating treatment, were investigated. The moisture compositions of enzyme extracts from the heating sea mustard were little higher than that of nonheating sea mustard, although the compositions of crude ash and pectin were no significant differences between two kinds of different pretreatment extracts. The supernatant extract ratio was slightly higher level in the heating pretreatment enzyme extracts than non-heating pretreatment extracts and the level of extracts prepared with only celluclast enzyme was higher than using only pectinex and the mixture of two enzymes. The general sensory evaluation value of jelly made from non-heating pretreatment extracts was higher than that from heating pretreatment extracts except on the taste and the texture.

This study was conducted in order to establish an in vitro method simulating the physiological function of fibers along the large intestine of humans. Commercial fibers including guar gum, apple pectin, citrus pectin, CM-cellulose, alginic acid and $\alpha$-cellulose, and dietary fiber residues obtained from rice bran, barley, soybean, Korea cabbage, apple, tangerine and sea mustard were employed to determine the water-holding capacity, weight of hydrated residue and fiber content after anaerobic fermentation using human fecal inoculum for 24 hours, followed by dialysis under osmotic suction pressure. The weight of hydrated residue in commercial fibers was in the decreasing order of CM-cellulose > alginic acid, $\alpha$-cellulose > apple pectin, citrus pectin > guar gum and that in food fiber residues was in the decreasing order of rice bran, sea mustard > soybean > tangerine, Korean cabbage > barley > apple. It was demonstrated that the larger the weight of hydrated residue was, the more the weight of human stool increased. Consequently this in vitro method can be used as a preceeding test before undertaking animal or human experiment to predict the physiological effects of fiber residues from diverse food samples as well as commercially refined fibers.

For the purpose of safety identification, the concentrations of heavy metals in seaweeds collected from Busan Gijang coastal area were investigated. The average concentration of metals had a level of as high as the order of manganese (2.76 ppm)>zinc(2.11 ppm)>copper(0.59 ppm)>arsenic (0.092 ppm)>lead(0.06 ppm)> mercury(0.03 ppm)>cadmium(0.026 ppm). The contents of manganese and zinc were highly detected from P. elliptica, copper and mercury from agar, cadmium from sea mustard and arsenic from wild sea mustard, respectively. The metal contents of seaweeds varied with kinds of samples, but high level for the safety can be found in these samples. Because P. elliptica had shown a clear selectivity for both manganese and zinc, this seaweed could be useful as a bioindicator for these two metal pollution.

Effect of temperature on some quality characteristics of aqueous extracts of sea mustard was investigated. The concentration of total solids and protein and their yields in the extracts were increased as the extraction temperature raised from $50^{\circ}C$ to $100^{\circ}C$ during initial period of extraction. However the lower values of the percent of supernatant was obtained at $50^{\circ}C$ and $100^{\circ}C$. The percent of yields of solids and protein for 1 hour extraction at $100^{\circ}C$ were 21.56% and 4.7%, respectively. The highest viscosity, which was $2.5{\sim}4.0$ times of higher values of the other extracts, was obtained by 2 hours extraction at $100^{\circ}C$. The turbidity was gradually decreased after 1 hour extraction. The activation energy calculated for initial increase rate of solid and protein concentration were 1.18 and 3.90 Cal/mole, respectively.

This study was performed to investigate the influence of dietary fibers on the serum lipid level and bowel function in aged rats. Fiber sources of experimental diets were made from mugwort(M), butterbur(B), apple(A), sea mustard(S) by drying and milling. Each of fiber sources was mixed into the diet at the level of 5, 15% of diet. Sprague-Dawley strain, 13 month old male rats were divided into 9 groups by randomized complete block design : C, M5, B5, A5, S5, M15, B15, A15, S15. The animals were fed ad libitum each of experimental diets for 4 weeks. Control group showed lower food intake compare to the other groups. There were no significant difference between 5% groups and 15% groups in food intake. Fecal weight, dry fecal weight and fecal water content of control group were significantly lower than those of experimental groups, and fecal water content was increased by increasing level of dietary fibber. Apple group showed the lowest values, sea mustard group showed the highest. The shorter transit time was observed in the group of higher intake of dietary fiber. At the same level of dietary fiber, transit time of sea mustard group was shorter than the other groups. With increasing age, serum triglycerides, total cholesterol were increased and HDL-cholesterol was decreased. Fiber fed groups showed lower serum TG, TC and higher HDL-c level compare to the control group. Absorption rates of calcium, magnesium and phosphorus was tend to be lower in the group fed dietary fiber sources than control group. Mucosa weight and maltase activity in the small intestine were decreased by increasing age. As intake of dietary fiber increaed, mucosa weight in the small intestine was not different but maltase activity was decreased.
