  • The contents of capsaicinoids, free sugars and organic acids of 10 Korean varieties of red pepper power were measured and the sensory properties of their water extracts were compared in order to investigate the influence of the composition of taste components on sensory acceptability of Korean red pepper. The composition of taste components in red pepper powder varied widely depending on the varieties; total capsaicinoid content varied from 0.029 to 0.296%, free sugar $8.45{\sim}15.21%$ and organic acid $4.58{\sim}17.54%$. Capsaicinoid contents, especially dihydrocapsaicin content, were highly correlated with the pungent taste of the water extract of red pepper powder (r=0.870), but did not show significant relationship to the overall sensory acceptability. The sensory overall acceptability was highly influenced by the contents of total sugar (r=+0.815), reducing sugar (r=+0.805), glucose (r=+0.814) and fructose (r=+0.787). Multiple regression with total sugar $(X_1)$, total capsaicin $(X_2)$ and total organic acid contents $(X_3)$ increased the correlation coefficient for sensory acceptability(Y) to R=0.9008. From the result, a regression equation of $Y=0.9808X_1-10.7526X_2-0.1664X_3-4.1147$ was obtained.

  • Effects of kimchi and its ingredients, vitamin C and $\beta$-sitosterol on the growth of Helicobacter pylori were investigated. Three kimchi variations were studied: a standard recipe (kimchi I) and two functional variations for cancer prevention and treatment made with organically grown ingredients (kimch II and III). Methanol extracts and juices from kimchi I and III did not inhibit the growth of H. pylori. However, 10 mm and 12 mm inhibition zones were formed by methanol extract and juice from kimchi II, which had higher concentrations of red pepper powder (RPP) than those of kimchi I and III. Among the major kimchi ingredients, methanol extracts of RPP, garlic and ginger substantially inhibited the growth of H. pylori. The maximal inhibition zone (30 mm) was attained with garlic treatment. Inhibitory effects of the RPP, garlic and the sub-ingredient mixture (prepared with radish, garlic, RPP, ginger, green onion, sugar and fermented anchovy juice) on H. pylori were decreased by lactic acid bacteria fermentation. Neither the fermented garlic nor the fermented sub-ingredient mixture inhibited the growth of H. pylori. But, the inhibition Bone of fermented RPP was 12 mm, which was less than the 16 mm inhibition zone formed by the non-fermented RPP. Vitamin C and $\beta$-sitosterol which are known to be functional active compounds of kimchi also showed no inhibitory effect on the growth of H. pylori after 3 days of incubation. Further study is needed to determine why the inhibitory effect is removed or decreased by lactic acid fermentation, and to determine if fresh kimchi and lactic acid bacteria of kimchi can inhibit the growth of H. pylori.

  • Methanol extracts form four kinds of kimchi, which were differently prepared in kinds and levels of sub-ingredients, were given to Balb/c mice for 3 weeks (0.5 mg/kg/day). Peritoneal macrophages isolated from mice treated with kimchi extracts and saline were stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). K3 and K4 kimchis, containing more red pepper powder, garlic, Chinese pepper powder, mustard leaf and organically cultivated Korean cabbage, significantly increased NO production by the activated macrophages (p<0.05). K1, K2, K3 and K4 kimchi extracts (0.01, 0.1, 1.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$) significantly reduced the increased TGF-$\beta$1 production of H.pylori lysate (0.01 $\mu\textrm{g}$)-activated human epithelial RPMI 2650 cells (5$\times$10$^{4}$ cells/mL) at 24 and 48 hrs of treatment (p<0.01). However, the decreased TGF-$\beta$1 $\alpha$ production of RPMI 2650 cells by H. pylori lysate increased by treatment with kimchi extract for 72 hrs. Especially, K4 kimchi (containing organically cultivated Korean cabbage and more ingredients, modulated TGF-$\beta$1 production of H. pylori lysate-activated RPMI 2650 cells to the normal level (control) by treatment for 48 hrs. The treatment of K1 and K4 kimchi enhanced the LPS (0.01 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL)-induced IL-6 production of splenocytes. The results suggest that kimchi might have an beneficial effect on cancer prevention due in part to the function enhancing NO production of activated macrophages. Our data suggest that kimchi could modulate TGF-$\beta$1 production by cancer cells and IL-6 production of splenocytes, thereby possibly contributing to control carcinogenesis and the immune system.

  • Antimutagenic effects of extracts from curry powder and its individual fourteen kinds of spices, were investigated by Ames test. The antimutagenic effects against a direct mutagen, 2-nitrofluorene(2 -NF) and two indirect mutagens, 2-anthramine(2-AT) and 2-acetamidofluorene (2-AE) in the S. typhimurium TA98 were tested. For the 2-NF, the antimutagenicity of cinnamon, fenugreek, fennel, ginger, clove, turmeric and celery seed were determined as 42, 38, 32, 28, 24, 23 and 20%, respectively. The antimutagenicity of clove against the 2-AT was the highest (116%), and followed by the order of celery seed(103%), cardamon(100%), red pepper(99%), cinnamon(92%), cumin(83%), ginger(82%), fennel(82%), coriander (71%), nutmeg(68%) and turmeric (55%). The results also showed that the antimutagenic effect of clove against the 2-AF was superior to other spices. In case of curry powder among more than 10 kinds of spices, the antimutagenenicity against the 2-AT and 2-AF showed 23% and 6%, respectively, but no effect was observed against the 2-NF.

  • Effects of kochujang (Korean red pepper soybean paste) extracts on tumor formation, natural killer (NK) cell activity in spleen and glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity in liver were investigated in the sarcoma-180 cell transplanted mice. Inhibitory effects of these samples on lung metastasis of colon 26-M3.1 cells were also evaluated in the Balb/c mice. The injection of methanol extracts from traditional kochujang I (TK I, 0-day fermented), II (TKII, 6-month fermented), commercial kochujang (CK, 1-month fermented) and red pepper powder (RPP) significantly reduced tumor formation in Balb/c mice (p<0.05), TKII decreased tumor growth by 46% compared with control, resulting in the smallest tumor weight. The transplantation of sarcoma-180 cells increased the spleen/body weight ratio of Balb/c mice, while TKI and TKll significantly decreased this index (p<0.05). The effect of TKll and CK, fermented kochujang, on the NK cell activity of splenocytes was higher than that of sarcoma-180 cells transplanted control group. TK II recovered the activity of hepatic GST that was decreased by the transplantation of sarcoma- 180 cells in to the mice. All kochujang-treated mice had significantly fewer lung metastatic colonies than control mice. TKII was the most effective in inhibiting lung metastasis of colon 26-M3.1 cells. These results indicated that optimally ripened (6-month) TK had more suppressive effects on tumor formation and lung metastasis than RPP and kochujang without fermentation and commercially prepared kochujang in mice.

  • To enhance the antitumor activity of Chinese cabbage kimchi, four kinds of kimchi, which ere differently prepared in kinds and levels of sub-ingredients, were fermented at 15$^{\circ}C$ for 1 day and then at 5$^{\circ}C$ up to pH 4.3. The solid tumor formation, hepatic glutathione S-transferase activity and glutathione contents in the liver, and natural killer (NK) cell activity of spleen were determined from the sarcoma-180 cell injected Balb/c mice that were treated with methanol extracts of the kimchi samples. Kimchi IV, prepared with organically cultivated Chinese cabbage, red pepper powder, garlic, Chinese pepper powder mustard leaf and heat processed salt (Gueun salt), reduced the tumor formation by 39.3% compared to the sarcoma-180 cell treated group, resulting in the smallest tumor weight. Methanol extracts of the kimchi III and kimchi IV recovered the activities of hepatic glutathione S-transferase(GST) that was decreased by the transplantation of the sarcoma-180 cells to th mice. The injections of methanol extracts of kimchi II and kimchi IV increased glutathione contents in sarcoma-180 cells treated mice. The methanol extract of kimchi IV increased the natural killer (NK) cell activity of spleen lymphocytes a more effectively (p<0.05) than those the other kimchi samples. These results suggest that the anticancer activities of kimchi can be increased by changing the kinds and levels of sub-ingredients.

  • This study was carried out to investigate the effects of various subsidiary ingredients added to Kimchi on the acceptance and sensory characteristics. In appearance acceptance, Kimchi without red pepper powder rated the worst, while samples without salt-fermented anchovy extracts, garlic, ginger, radish, green onion and onion showed no significant difference(p<0.05) compared with the control, and were all rated highly in acceptance. In flavor, taste and overall acceptance, the sample without garlic rated the worst, indicating that garlic has the greatest effect on the acceptance of Kimchi. Red pepper powder had an effect only on the pungency of Kimchi's flavor characteristics. Salt-fermented anchovy extracts enhanced umami taste, sweetness and saltiness of Kimchi. Garlic also enhanced the general flavor such as sourness, umami taste, sweetness, carbonated flavor and fresh flavor, but inhibited the moldy flavor. Ginger had effects on pungency, fresh flavor of Kimchi, while radish, green onion and onion only had an effect on the fresh flavor of Kimchi. Garlic had significant effects on the moldy flavor and bitterness of Kimchi's sensory characteristics, and the amount of garlic added to Kimchi influenced the sourness, sweetness and fresh flavor, irrespective of the kinds of Kimchi and fermentation temperature.

  • 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.

  • AS a part of investigation to use anchovy more effectively as food source, this work was undertaken the processing conditions of extracts from rapid fermented anchovy sauce. To prepare rapid fermented products, the chopped anchovy was mixed with 50% water (w/w), and then hydrolyzed by autolysis or addition of koji under different conditions of hydrolysis. The optimal conditions for hydrolysis of chopped anchovy were revealed $50^{\circ}C$, 6 hours, pH 8.0 by autolysis, and ,$50^{\circ}C$, 6 hours, pH 7.0 by addition of 10% koji, respectively. But, pH control was not much beneficial in increasing yield. The effect of soybean protein isolote for improvement of bitter taste was also tested. The reasonable amount of added soybean protein isolate was revealed 5% on the weight basis of the chopped anchovy. The reaction mixture hydrolyzed under optimal conditions were added with 1% onion powder (w/w), 1% garlic powder(w/w) and 1% red pepper powder(w/w) for masking fishy odor, inactivated for 20 min at $100^{\circ}C$, and then centrifuged for 20 min at 4,000 rpm. The supernatant liquor was filtrated and evaporated to 50%(v/v). finally, table salt was added for bateriostatic effect and characteristic taste of rapid fermented products. the reasonable amount of added table salt was reversed 15% on the volume basis of the evaporated liquor. The hydrolysis ratio of product made by addition of water, product made by addition of koji and water, and product made by addition of soybean protein isolate, koji and water hydrolyzed under optimal conditions were 58.4%, 82.1% and 86.2%, respectively.
