This research was carried to investigate the food preference of students, from elementary school, middle school, high school, university and industrial workers on Jinju, Sacheon and Jinyang by age and sex. The results were obtained as follows. In case of rice as the stationary food, plain white boiled rice showed the highest preference among all the groups. Most of groups liked most of one-dish meals such as kimbab, fried rice with kimchi, dumplings and bibimbab, especially the elementary school students and middle school students. On the other hand, high percentage of industrial workers disliked the western food such as pizza, hamburger and sphagetti. Most of subjects liked jajangmun, nangmun and bibimgooksu as noodles. As the side dishes generally they prefer the soup to stew. Male prefer the soup with beef and female prefer soup with vegetables. Stew with kimchi and stew with soybean paste showed high preference among most of groups. Most of broil food showed high preference, and students prefer meat to fish as broil cooking materials especially younger students. As a general they liked soybean sprout, spinach and wild sesame leaf as namul cooking method and they liked korean cabbage kimchi, chonggak kimchi, kackdoogi and dongchimi as kimchi. As a dessert subjects liked most of fruits and they liked yoghurt, fruit juice, milk, sikhae and soda as drinks generally. On the other hand snacks such as cooky, candy, cake, corn, rice cake, sweet potato have the lowest percentage preferance as a dessert, but students from elementary schools showed the highest preferance to sweet such as cooky, cake and candy than any other group. These food preferance results showed some nutritional problems especially young age students. They should eat more green-yellow vegetables, liver food and dried small sardine and they should reduce snacks such as candy and cooky and soda drinks. Therefore it is necessary to conduct nutrition education by parents, teachers and dietician together to improve their food habits and their health.

The removal amount of pesticide residue which were remained in baechu (Chinese cabbage) and perilla leaf were measured during the preparation process of kimchi. The amounts of diazinon, procymidone and endosulfan applied to chinese cabbage were $9.18{\pm}0.03$mg/kg, $22.27{\pm}0.22$ and $10.46{\pm}0.02$ mg/kg respectively. When chinese cabbage was brined with 10% salt solution for 12 hours, the removal rates of three pesticides were 22.5%, 25.3% and 0.6% for diazinon, procymidone and endosulfan, respectively. When chinese cabbage was brined and rinsed 3 times with water, the removal rates of three pesticides were 69.9%, 85.6% and 11.2% for diazinon, procymidone and endosulfan, respectively. When kimchi was prepared and fermented for 28 days at $4^{\circ}C$, the removal rates of three pesticides were 79.4%, 94.4% and 21.0% for diazinon, procymidone and endosulfan, respectively. The relative percentages of removal dose of pesticides during brining were 28.4%, 26.9% and 3.2% for diazinon, procymidone and endosulfan, respectively and which were 59.7%, 63.8% and 50.4% during rinsing and which were 11.9%, 9.3% and 46.4% during fermentation, respectively. The amounts of diazinon, procymidone and endosulfan applied to perilla leaf were $18.11{\pm}0.62$ mg/kg, $31.80{\pm}0.33$ and $12.01{\pm}0.01$ mg/kg, respectively. When perilla leaf was rinsed 3 times with water, the removal rates of three pesticides were 60.5%, 52.0% and 23.7% for diazinon, procymidone and endosulfan, respectively. When perilla leaf was rinsed and brined with 10% salt solution for 14 days, the removal rates of three pesticides were 93.9%, 92.4% and 49.6% for diazinon, procymidone and endosulfan, respectively. The relative percentages of removal dose of pesticides during rinsing were 64.5%, 56.3% and 47.8% for diazinon, procymidone and endosulfan, respectively, and which during brining were 35.5%, 43.7% and 52.2% for diazinon, procymidone and endosulfan, respectively.

This study was conducted to enhance the value of chamnamul (Pimpinella brachycarpa (Komarov) $N_{AKAI}$) as an useful food resource. Hunter L, a, b values (lightness, redness, yellowness) of chamnamul leaf were 33.28$\pm$1.94, -10.98$\pm$0.74, 14.05$\pm$1.29 and shearing force was 2745.2g. Contents of tannin and dietary fiber were 100.9 mg%, 24.0% (freeze drying base). The minerals identified in chamnamul were Ca 7.85 g/kg, K 76.31 g/kg, Mg 4.78g/kg, Fe 0.35g/kg, Na 2.35 g/kg. Chamnamul kimchi was packed in polyethylene film (200g) and fermented at 2$0^{\circ}C$ and 4$^{\circ}C$. In color changes kimchi fermented at 2$0^{\circ}C$ showed more increase in Hunter L, a, b values than kimchi fermented at 4$^{\circ}C$. The pH of kimchi decreased and acidity increased with storage time at both temperature. Ascorbic acid contents decreased sharply with storage time. Loss of ascorbic acid contents was about 81.9% in kimchi fermented at 2$0^{\circ}C$ after 5 days, and kimchi fermented 4$^{\circ}C$ lost 77.3% of ascorbic acid after 30 days. Also reducing sugar contents decreased with storage time at 2$0^{\circ}C$ and 4$^{\circ}C$. The results of sensory evaluation showed that optimum ripening time of chamnamul kimchi was 1~3 days at 2$0^{\circ}C$ and more than 20 days at 4$^{\circ}C$.>.

Lactobacillus plantarum strain KK3 with tannase activity was isolated from Gochunipkimchi (red pepper leaf kimchi) and showed a high antagonistic activity against five kinds of food pathogens. Strain KK3 secreted antibacterial compound into culture medium and 24-h culture in MRS broth at $30^{\circ}C$ was enough for the antibacterial compound production. The crude antibacterial compound prepared from culture supernatant inhibited the growth of some Gram-negative bacteria and Bacillus cereus but not Listeria monocytogenes. The antibacterial activity was sensitive to proteinase K treatment, confirming its proteinaceous nature (bacteriocin). The crude bacteriocin was active in the pH range 3.5-8.5 and extremely stable after 15 min of heat treatment at $121^{\circ}C$. The strain KK3 produced equally active bacteriocin in Chinese cabbage juice as it produced in MRS broth.

Effects of freeze-drying on microbiological and sensory characteristics of yulmoo-kimchi (leaf radish kimchi) were investigated. Freeze-dried yulmoo-kimchi was stored at 0, 10 or $25^{\circ}C$ for 60 days and rehydrated with water. Optimum rehydration time of freeze-dried yulmoo-kimchi was 2 hr. Number of lactic acid bacteria of freeze-dried, 10 days-stored, rehydrated yulmoo-kimchi decreased significantly (p<0.05) in comparison with that of reference sample (non-freeze-dried yulmoo-kimchi), while no significant changes were observed after 10 days. As storage temperature increased, number of lactic acid bacteria of 10 days-stored samples decreased. pH value slightly increased by freeze-drying, while it decreased gradually during 60 days of storage. Sensory properties of freeze-dried/rehydrated sample were slightly inferior to those of reference sample, but those were relatively good when the sample was evaluated solely. Overall acceptability of freeze-dried, $0^{\circ}C$-stored, rehydrated sample was significantly inferior to reference sample (p<0.05) and it gradually decreased as storage temperature increased. Between storage periods of 10 through 60 days, sensory properties of 0 and $10^{\circ}C$-stored sample slightly decreased, while those of $25^{\circ}C$-stored sample decreased markedly.

To increase the marketability of Dolsan leaf mustard Kimchi, seasonings were prepared by sea tangle and Lentinus edodes. Gat Kimchi A (GK-A) and Gat Kimchi B (GK-B) were prepared by addition of complex seasoning with Sea tangle (CSS), complex seasoning with Lentinus edodes (CSL), respectively and evaluated the quality characteristics. GK-A contained high minerals and dietary fiber and showed the effect of delaying pH-lowering and acidity-rising. There were no significant differences in salinity test after 70 days. Reducing sugar of test groups was higher than control. During the fermentation, Leuconostoc sp. was grown in GK-A and GK-B than control. Growth of control's Lactobacillus sp. increased 20 days after. Up to 30 days, lightness of control was high. Yellowness were increased browning potential in GK-B, 20 days after. From the initial to 10 days, Hardness of GK-A showed higher than the others. glutamic acid and aspartic acid content of GK-A was higher significantly than the others in the entire fermentation period (p<0.05). At 0, 10, 30 days, sweet-tasty amino acids of GK-A showed a significantly higher level than the others (p<0.05). From 10 days to 40 days of fermentation, the sensory evaluation of GK-A is better than the other groups. Comprehensively reviewed the above results, the conclusion is as follows: CSS made with sea tangle as a main ingredient. GK-A by seasoning the CSS to 90 g GK-A is expected as a new Dolsan leaf mustard products that can provide flavor and nutrition to the consumer at the same time.

The effect of fermentation temperature on the changes of pH, acidity, salt content, color and vitamin C of mustard leaf kimchi during various storage days was investigated. The conditions of fermentation temperature were set at $4^{\circ}C$ (sample A) and $20^{\circ}C$ (sample B), and $4^{\circ}C$ after keeping at $20^{\circ}C$ for 12 hours(sample C) and $20^{\circ}C$ for 36 hours(sample D). As the fermentation proceeded, pH of sample stored at low temperature(sample A) was drop ped gradually from initial pH of 5.24 but there was great pH drop in the sample stored at high temperature(sample B, D). The salt content of the sample B at high temperature increased remarkably, and then the values showed D > A > C. The Humter values of L and a increased at the optimum ripening period, the higher the initial fermentation temperature(B) and the later the initial fermentation time at $20^{\circ}C$ those values, then decreased. The Hunter value of b constantly increased until day of 108. As fermentation time passed, the content of total vitamin C decreased to the range of 9.0mg% to 14.0mg% up to 24 days of fermentation, and at the optimum ripening period, it increased to the range of 14.0mg% to 22.0mg%, and at the fermentation period(until day 108), it decreased gradually.

Antioxidative activities (AA) of mustard leaf kimchi (MLK) by the addition of optional ingredients among selected minor materials were studied. In order to determine AA of MLK with different spices, the model systems of ground cooked beef with green onion, garlic, and red pepper powder were prepared and stored for 4 weeks at 4$^{\circ}C$. AA of red pepper added group was stronger than those of others. AA of red MLK was relatively higher than that of (green) MLK. For the enhancement of AA of MLK, another model systems were prepared with the selected antioxidative optional ingredients, which were bonnet bellflower root, leek, burdock, sea tangle, sea mustard, seastaghorn at the level of 2% or 4%. The extracts of water, 75% methanol and hexane of MLK, bonnet bellflower root added MLK, and seastaghorn added MLK had a considerable AA with the inhibition of peroxide formation during the autioxidation of linoleic acid mixtures in aqueous model systems at 37$^{\circ}C$. Therefore, AA was more effective in MLK containing specific optional ingredients than that of MLK alone significantly.

The glucosinolate content, antioxidant activity, and antihypertensive and antidiabetic activities were measured in a crude extract of Dolsan leaf mustard kimchi (DLMK). The glucosinolate content was low at 6.41 and 7.92 mg/g in leaves and stems of DLMK after 21 days of fermentation. The total polyphenol and total flavonoid contents were more than 2 times higher in the leaves (211.7 mg GAE/g, 158.8 mg QE/g) than in the stem (53.7 mg GAE/g, 85.2 mg QE/g) during the fermentation period. The 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging activity and electron donating ability (EDA) were similar to those of the control group after 14 days of fermentation, while the ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) was higher in the leaves after 14 days of fermentation when compared to the control group. The angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity showed similar or higher inhibitory activity in the leaves when compared to the control group (0.01% captopril), and the ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activity was higher in the leaves and stems when compared to the control group (0.05% acarbose). The glucosinolate content and the ABTS, ACE, and ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activity were correlated, as determined by the observed straight line plot with a positive grade. During the fermentation period, the detected glucosinolates were sinigrin, glucobrasicin, glucotropeolin, and progoitrin. The DLMK extract is therefore expected to be valuable as a functional food because of its effective antioxidant, antihypertensive, and antidiabetic activities.

Biological and functional characteristics of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were investigated in mustard stem/leaf kimchi (MK), cabbage kimchi (CK), young radish kimchi (YRK), and cubed radish kimchi (CRK). LAB of young radish kimchi were mainly composed of bacilli in contrast to the other kimchi. 89.2% LAB isolated from all kimchi harbored plasmids. However, LAB had an average of $4.1{\pm}0.5$ plasmid bands in YRK, more than MK, CK, and CRK. Exopolysaccharides were produced by 10.9~11.1% of LAB, and were especially by LAB isolated from radish kimchi. A significant percentage of LAB (69.5%) had antibacterial activity against one sensitive strain or more. LAB from CK, YRK and CRK had antimicrobial activities against Bacillus sp., Listeria monocytogenes, and Salmonella Typhimurium, while the LAB from MK had activities against Vibrio parahaemolyticus higher than those from the other kimchi. In YRK and CRK, acid-tolerant LAB were twice as prevalent as those in MK and CK. Bile-tolerant LAB isolated from CRK were more prevalent than other kimchi. When $10^8$ CFU of LAB were added to Caco-2 cells, 12.1% of LAB isolated from all kimchi showed similar adherent activity to Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG. LAB of MK particularly adhered to Caco-2 cells, 2.0~4.1 fold higher than LAB in the other kimchi. From these results, biological and functional characteristics of LAB varied according to the type of kimchi and LAB existing in kimchi were limited to their respective species.
