The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of the addition of various concentrations of sea mustard powder on the quality characteristics of Bacsulgi. The sea mustard powder was added to rice powder at ratios of 3, 5, 7, and 9%(w/w). The moisture contents and salinity of Bacsulgi were increased with the addition of sea mustard powder. The incorporation of sea mustard powder in Bacsulgi lowered the lightness values but increased the blueness and yellowness values. Rheology test showed that hardness was significantly (p<0.05) decreased with increasing sea mustard powder content. The springiness and cohesiveness were decreased, whereas the adhesiveness was increased, with increasing sea mustard powder content. Scanning electron microscopy showed that the size of the air cells increased and the surface of rice powder swelled with increasing sea mustard powder content. The result of sensory evaluation showed that there were significant (p<0.05) differences in the scores of smell and taste sensory characteristics among the samples. The overall eating quality was the highest in the control and decreased with increasing sea mustard powder level. The study results suggested that Bacsulgi prepared with up to 5% addition of sea mustard powder was as acceptable as Bacsulgi prepared without sea mustard powder.

Kochujang was fermented using hot red pepper, meju prepared with soybean and rice, and malt-digested syrup. To reduce salt content, mustard powder (1.2%, w/w) was added to Korean traditional kochujang with 4-10% salt, and microbial characteristics, enzyme activities, and gas formation in kochujang were evaluated during fermentation for 120 days at $25^{\circ}C$. Yeast numbers of all treatments maintained 2.43-2.86 log CFU/g up to 60 days fermentation, indicating salt concentration had no effect on yeast count. Activities of ${\alpha}$- and ${\beta}$-amylases, and neutral and acidic proteases of kochujang added with mustard powder were slightly higher than those of control group. Total accumulative volume of gas produced during fermentation of kochujang without mustard powder (control group) was 5,892 mL/pack, but decreased to 34-99 mL/pack in low-salted kochujang (4 and 6% salt) added with mustard powder. Major gas produced was carbon dioxide (79-80%) with oxygen content less than 1.25%(v/v). Results indicate salt concentration of kochujang could be lowered up to 6-8% by addition of mustard powder without gas formation and quality alteration during distribution.

Mustard leaf kimchi added different ratios of pumpkin powder(P) and green tea powder(G) were investigated by measuring changes of physicochemical, microbiological and sensory characteristics during fermentation at 5℃. The pH and total acidity were changed slowly until 20 days, and then changed rapidly for 20∼40 days in all mustard leaf kimchi groups. The pH and acidity of mustard leaf kimchi added 0.5% G was the most slowly changed compared to the other groups. Reducing sugar content was highest in mustard leaf kimchi added 0.5% P at early stage of fermentation, but the reduing sugar content of this mustard leaf kimchi group was decreased more rapidly than those of the other groups during fermentation. The numbers of lactic acid bacteria and total bacteria were highest in 0.5% P added group and lowest in 0.5% G added group. The mustard leaf kimchi added 0.3% P and 0.2% G was relatively high in number of Leuconostoc sp., on the contrary low in Lactobacillus sp. compared to the other groups during fermentation. Changes of Hunter's color values, especially yellowness, and hardness were smaller in each mustard leaf kimchi added 0.5% G, and 0.3% P and 0.2% G than the other groups. Sensory scores of taste, odor and overall acceptability were highest in mustard leaf kimchi added 0.3% P and 0.2% G. Based on these results, it is suggested that mustard leaf kimchi added 0.3% P and 0.2% G was the best group among mustard leaf kimchi groups.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of various types of calcium sources on calcium metabolism. Sprague-Dawley male rate weighing approximately 82g were divided into 6 groups and fed experimental diets containing about 0.2% calcium for 4 weeks. Perilla leaves, dried sea mustard, mulberry leaves, loach, skim milk powder, and CaCO3 were used as calcium sources for this study. Food intake of experimental groups showed no significant difference from that of control group, but food efficiency ratio were higher in group fed loach as a calcium source. Apparent calcium absorption from perilla leaves, and skim milk powder groups as good as that in CaCO group. Femur length showed no significant difference among exjerimental groups with different calcium sources. The breaking force of bone was higher in loach and dried sea mustard groups. Weight, ash weight, and calcium content of the femur were higher in the loach diet group than in the others. Thus, calcium from not only skim milk powder but also perilla leaves, dried sea mustard, mulberry leaves, and loach appears readily available and all of these can be recommended as calcium sources.

This study was undertaken to examine the effect of sea tangle and sea mustard on physiochemical and sensory characteristics of cakes and the possibility commercialization of these functional cakes. The moisture contents of cakes prepared with sea tangle and sea mustard were higher than those of control, and a positive correlation between water holding capacity(WHC) and moisture contents was observed(r=0.836). As addition level of sea tangle and sea mustard was increased, volume of cakes were decreased, whereas hardness was increased slightly and color became deep. Hardness was strongly correlated to the volume of cakes(r= 0.914). Visual observation by photomicrography showed that, as addition level of sea mustard and sea tangle was increased, formation of air cells were prohibited and thus volume of cakes was decreased. The microstructural observation by scanning electron microscopy(SEM) showed that air cells of cakes were well developed up to 5% addition of sea tangle powder. As a result of the sensory evaluation for the cakes prepared with sea tangle and sea mustard, no significant difference was observed between control and those addition levels up to 5%. Flavor was proved to be the most important factor in determining overall acceptability and hedonic hardness score was inversely correlated to the objective hardness value(r= 0.853).

This study carried out the standardization of processing conditions in mustard powder (MP) for quality improvement and suggested a recycling scheme of mustard oil(MO). Pungent taste in MP and MO was estimated using allylisothiocyanate (AITC) content as a marker. Recovery of crude oil from mustard seed (MS) was best by the cold pressing method. Residual AITC content at $30^{\circ}C$ pressing was 0.54% and 0.42% at $230^{\circ}C$. But residual AITC contents in MOs were 92ppm, 139ppm, respectively. The residual AITC content in MP was the highest (0.54%) when the moisture content in MP was 4.5%. The residual content of volatile oil in MP and MO showed similar results. In summary, crude oil must be removed from MS using the cold pressing method.

Contents of insoluble(IDF), soluble dietary fiber (SDF), and total dietary fiber(TDF) of 30 foods which are consumed commonly by 80 Koeran male college students were determined by Prosky and colleagues' enzymatic-gravimentric method. Foods with highest intake frequency were rice, Kimch'i, and red pepper powder. TDF, IDF, and SDF contents of rice were 0.96, 0.59 and 0.37g/100g wet wt., respectively and tose of Kimch'i were 3.07, 2.19 and 0.88g/100g wet wt., respectively. Red pepper powder contained high amount of TDF(39.37) and IDF (33.13g/100g wet wt.). The TDF content of the 30 foods ranged from 0.70 to 39.37g/100g wet wt. Red pepper (39.37), dried laver(31.36), and dried sea mustard (37.77g/100g wet wt.) contained high amounts of TDF. The IDF content of the 30 foods ranged from 0.13 to 33.13g/100g wet wt. Red pepper powder (33.13), dried laver(15.55) and sesame(15.43g/100g wet wt.) contained high amounts of IDF. SDF of the 30 foods ranged from 0.01 to 25.66g/100g wet wt. Dried sea mustard(25.66), dried laver(15.81), coffee powder (13.17), and garlic(8.72g/100g wet wt.) were good sources of SDF. % ratio of SDF to TDF of the 30 foods was lower than 50% except soybean curd(94.27%), coffee powder (88.93%), garlic(86.17%), dried sea mustard(67.94%), and dried laver(50.41%). It is recommended to increase intake of seaweeds in order to supply TDF adn SDF properly.

This study investigated the inhibitory effects of sea mustard on high-fat diet-induced obesity and hyperlipidemia in Sprague-Dawley rats. Sea mustard (Undaria pinnatifida) powder, sea mustard ethanol extract, and sea mustard ethanol-extracted residue were tested. The ethanol extracted residue had the most beneficial anti-hyperlipidemic activity. Alginate in the sea mustard was considered to be the key component. The ethanol-extracted residue of sea mustard also had antioxidant activity, which may be effective in preventing hyperlipidemia by increasing the enzymatic activity of superoxide dismutase, which can remove active oxygen from the bloodstream.

Various bacterial strains were isolated from rice field ditch water, and their seaweed degrading activities were investigated. They were incubated in a liquid medium of sea tangle (Laminaria iaponica) and sea mustard (Undaria pinnatifida) powder for 3 weeks. Ratios of reduced sugar to total sugar of the liquid medium were measured once a week. Ratios of reduced sugar to total sugar of 27A311, 27C221 27A111 and 27B121 strains were highest. Accordingly, these four strains were incubated in 3 different liquid media of sodium alginate, sea tangle powder, and sea mustard powder for 3 or 4 weeks. The ratios of reduced sugar to total sugar and cell growth were measured once a week. Cell growth was higher in 27A111 and 27C221. Ratios of reduced sugar to total sugar was higher for 27C221 in the liquid mediums with sodium alginate and sea mustard powder, and for 27A111 in the liquid medium with sea tangle powder.

This research was performed to determine the quality characteristics of cookies made from flour added with 0, 1, 3, and 5% sea mustard (Undaria pinnatifida Suringer) powder. The quality characteristics of the cookies, including pH and density of the dough, moisture content, spread factor, loss rate, leavening rate, color, mineral content, texture properties, and sensory properties, were estimated. The density of the dough, water content, spread factor, loss rate, leavening rate, a and b values of color scale, and mineral content of the cookies significantly increased while those of pH, L value, and hardness decreased with higher content of sea mustard powder. With the exception of flavor, consumer acceptability scores in terms of appearance, taste, texture, and overall preference for cookies made from 3% sea mustard powder significantly ranked the highest. Taken together, the results of this study suggest that addition of 3% sea mustard powder to flour is effective for increasing the consumer acceptability and functionality of cookies.
