Low-salt fermented pollack Theragra chalcogramma roe (Myungran Jeotgal, MJ), a traditional Korean fermented seafood, was prepared using a commercially available method and irradiated using gamma rays (0-10.0 kGy) to investigate the effect of gamma irradiation (GI) on food quality. After irradiation with 2.5 kGy gamma rays, the number of viable cells in MJ was reduced by one log compared to that observed in non-irradiated MJ, and no living cells were detected after 7.5 kGy GI. Though up to 2.5 kGy GI had no effect on color quality, over 7.5 kGy GI resulted in significantly poor quality MJ surface color. Saturated fatty acid contents increased slightly in irradiated MJ, while those of polyenes and monoenes decreased slightly as the GI dose increased. Exposure of MJ to GI had no effect on the free amino acid and mineral composition. These results demonstrated that the appropriate GI dose for MJ ranged from 2.5 to 5.0 kGy, which may be recommended for industrial application.

식품첨가제의 사용없이 저장성과 품질이 우수한 저염의 새우젓을 rokf하기 이한 바업으로 방사선 조사기술을 이용하였다. 식염농도를 각각 10%, 15%, 20%로 조절한 새우젓에 감마선을 조사한 후 15$^{\circ}C$에서 발효시키면서 일반성분, 염함량, 수분활성도, pH, 총균수 및 관능적 품질 변화를 조사하였다. 감마선 조사직후 및 발효기간 중 일반성분과 식염함량 및 수분활성은 감마선 조사에 의해 영향을 받지 않았다. 새우젓의 총균수와 pH는 식염농도와 감마선 조사선량이 높을수록 변화가 적었다. 관능검사 결과, 15%의 식염 첨가와 10 kGy의 감마선 조사 및 20%의 식염첨가와 5 kGy 이상의 감마선 조사를 병용처리한 새우젓을 발효시킨 경우 비조사구에 비해 적절한 미생물의 생육 억제로 저장기간 연장 효과를 보였고, 발효 10주까지도 관능적 품질이 적합하게 유지되었다.

The low salt seasoned jeotkal, salted and fermented fisheries product, may has some problems, such as short shelf-life, its putrefaction by mixing some microorganism from additives. It was considered that most microorganism in seasoned jeotkal were introduced from red pepper powder. Therefore, it is important to pasteurize red pepper powder for improving its microbial quality. When red pepper powder was pasteurized by ohmic heating, the survival cell concentration in red pepper powder was reduced to 1-log-unit at 500 V/m, 700 V/m, above 8$0^{\circ}C$. But viable cell counts were reduced from 8.5$\times$10$^{6}$ CFU/g to 2.1 $\times$ 10$^2$CFU/g, i.e. 4.6-log-unit, during ohmic heating at 9$0^{\circ}C$ for 40 min. Color values of red pepper powder during ohmic heating with different holding time were not changed significantly. When squid-jeotkal was manufactured by using the pasteurized red pepper powder, viable cell counts of the product were decreased by about three log cycles, compare with control product. And also the counts of fungi were significantly decreased.

The ATP related compounds play an important role in a taste of traditional salt-fermented seafoods (Jeotkals). The ATP related compounds were analyzed in the traditional anchovy Jeotkal during fermentation and 11 kinds of commercial Jeotkals by enzymatic method compared with existing HPLC method, In the traditional anchovy Jeotkal, the contents of $ATP{\~}IMP$ decreased during fermentation, while the contents of Hx reached maximum value at 60 days fermentation and thereafter decreased gradually. Uric acid was detected at 30 days fermentation and showed the gentle increment after that. In the commercial Jeotkals, uric acid was detected $14.6{\~}28.4{\%}$ of total ATP related compounds content by enzymatic method, while it was not detected by HPLC method. From these results, enzymatic method is more accurate than HPLC method for analysis of the ATP related compounds in Jeokals.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the preferred methods for making summer kimchi as a basic research of making commercial kimchi. Questionnaire were collected from 590 housewives nationwide in Korea, and the data were analyzed by SPSS program. The results were as follows: (1) The average salting time of Chinese cabbage was 3~5 hrs when the combined method of dry and brine salting was used, regardless of the region. (2) Seven jeotkals (salt-fermented fishes) including anchovy, anchovy juice, shrimp, northern sand lance juice, hair-tail viscera, flatfish and yellow corvenia were mainly used in kimchi. Among them, anchovy and anchovy juice jeotkals were preferred to all others in Southern area (Busan, Gwangju, Gyeongnam, Gyeongbuk, Jeonnam), while shrimp jeotkal in Seoul, Gwangju, Jeonbuk, Chungnam and Jeju, and northern sand lance juice jeotkal in Daegu, Daejeon and Gyeonggi, respectively. In most regions, however, blending type of 2 jeotkals was used in kimchi. (3) Eleven ingredients such as red pepper, garlic, ginger, green onion, radish, leek, onion, carrot, sugar, sesame and MSG were used as basic components for making kimchi. In particular, MSG was used as a basic ingredient regardless of region and age. However, a standard taste for making kimchi was depended on housewife in this study.
