The changes of dietary fiber and texture of radish Kimchi fermented at $17{\sim}20^{\circ}C$ were investigated. During the fermentation period, hardness and brittleness of radish Kimchi were decreased. The changes were more marked in the brittleness. But the contents of cellulose and hemicellulose were not changed considerably. The contents of AIS was decreased with fermentation. During the fermentation, hot soluble pectin was increased and protopection was decreased but the amount of changes was small. The texture of radish Kimchi was affected by contents of pectic subsrances, especially protopectin. The coefficient of correlation between hardness and protopectin contents was 0.85.(=r)

A survey on the kimchi preference among elementray school students in Pusan was conducted in April of 1995 to get basic information needed for the development of special kimchi for the children. Total of 1100 children in 2nd, 4th and 6th grade from public and private elementary school participated in this survey. Sixty eight percent of students answered that they like kimchi. However, kimchi preference(17.6%) among other side dishes-pork cuttlet.ham.sausage(54.1%), egg roll(9.4%), soysauced beef(8.2%), toasted laver(6.3%), bean sprout namul(3.0%), danmooji(1.0%), and squash namul(0.4%)-was relatively low. It can be interpreted that elementary school student prefers processed food specially animal food to kimchi. The hot taste of the kimchi was the number one reason of their dislike of kimchi, and it was the most important reason for those also like kimchi. Thus it can be thought as the representative taste of kimchi. Chinese cabbage kimchi was found to be the most favorite kimchi and kakdugi(seasoned pickles of cubed radish), nabak-kimchi(mildly seasoned water based kimchi that is mixture of chinese cabbage and cubed radish) and jchonggag kimcchi(seasoned pickles of pony tail radish) and cucumber kimchi were followed in order. Among the various ingredients in kimchim children like cabbage best but they didn't like galic, ginger, green onion and fermented fish sauce which give strong flavor in kimchi.

The study is being conducted to investigate the perceptions and preferences of the Korean kimchi by the Chinese international students in Jeonbuk area. Self-administered questionnaires were collected from 197 male (48.9%) and 203 female (51.1%) students. Statistical data analysis is being completed using SPSS v. 12.0. Approximately 95% of Chinese female and 91% of male students know about kimchi before coming to Korea through the Korean movies and dramas. The perceptions for kimchi according to the residence period showed a significantly difference 'kimchi is a nutritious and health food' (p<0.05), 'kimchi has good taste but too hot to eat' (p<0.05), and 'Kimchi is difficult to eat because of the smell' (p<0.05). Approximately 52% of Chinese female and 44% of male students consumed kimchi once or twice a day. The most popular form of kimchi among the 13 varieties was baech kimchi. Chinese female students preferred the 'kkakdugi' (p<0.05), 'chonggak kimchi' (p<0.05), and 'young radish kimchi' (p<0.05) more than the male students. The most liked reason was the 'refreshing taste' (44.8%) whereas the most disliked reasons were 'unfamiliar with eating kimchi' (28.7%) and 'sour taste' (24.2%). Approximately 85% of Chinese female and 60% of male students would like to experience making kimchis by themselves. Extended kimchi consumptions for Chinese answered 'not too fish-like smell' (36.0%), 'not too overly-ripe' (34.5%), 'not too sour' (25.4%), and 'not too hot' (25.4%). Therefore, in order to improve the awareness for kimchi among Chinese students, we need to relate kimchi with the taste of Chinese traditional foods.

The antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of roasted dried radish (RDR) against renal oxidative stress were examined in high-fat diet (HFD)-fed mice. The HFD was prepared by adding lard to chow diet to provide 50% of the calories from fat. Hot water extracts of dried radish (DR) or RDR were administered orally to mice at 237 mg/kg bw/day, whereas distilled water was administered as a vehicle for 12 weeks. Compared to the control group, renal reactive oxygen species, peroxynitrite, and thiobarbituric acid reactive substance level in the DR or RDR group were significantly decreased, whereas the glutathione level was increased (p<0.05). Protein expressions of antioxidant factors such as nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor-2, heme oxygenase-1, glutathione S-transferase, superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase were significantly increased in the DR and RDR groups; however, nuclear factor-kappa B expression was suppressed (p<0.05). These antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of RDR were found to be significantly greater than those of DR.

In recent, Kimchi is produced in the scale of industry, Consumers show increased demand of safety and high quality and hygienic process control. So, sun drying, hot air drying and cold air drying methods were investigated to compare the demand Sun drying took 96 hrs, hot air drying took 4 hrs at $70^{\circ}$ and cold air drying took 102 hrs at $10^{\circ}C$ in removing water to $90\%$ from radish. Brownness of radish was expressed as absorbance. Absorbance were 0.20, 2.04 and 1.87 and also Vit-C contents were 0.14 mg/g, 0.12 mg/g and 0.096 mg/g in dried radish according to cold air drying, hot air drying and sun drying, respectively. From overall experimental results, cold air drying method was found as superior drying method to other drying methods.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of quality preservatives on minimally processed white radish for Kkakttugi, hot radish Kimchi, preparation during storage at $4^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$. The firmness of minimally processed white radish decreased during storage at $4^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$. However 1% $CaCl_2$ and 2% NaCl+2% sucrose treatments were effective to maintain the firmness of cut radishs. For color, Hunter L values decreased more in the samples stored at $20^{\circ}C$ than at $4^{\circ}C$, while a values showed a slight increase at both storage temperatures. The b values (browning index) showed a notable increase during storage at $4^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$. Vitamin C content decreased during storage at both temperatures by 10.4% ~ 95.9%. At both storage temperatures, vitamin C content was highest in the samples treated with 1% NaCl+1% sucrose. For organic acid, while the content of malic acid decreased those of lactic and acetic acid increased during storage.
