In order to utilize effectively sea mustard(Undaria pinnatifida) which is excellent in nutrition and medical action, powdered sea mustard juice was prepared and then its chemical composition and the stability of pigments were examined. Powdered sea mustard was made by washing fresh sea mustard with tap water to remove clay and sand, blanching at $85^{\circ}C$ for 20 sec in mixing solution(3% salt+1% $MgCO_3$), hot air drying($50-55^{\circ}C$, 3 hrs) after draining and pulverizing dried sea mustard to 200mesh. And then powdered sea mustard mixtures for juice type beverage was made by adding 0.75% of salt, 1.25% of sugar, 0.2% of ascorbic acid, 0.25% of flour of roasted barley and 0.8% of pulverized sea mustard to 100ml of water. Chemical composition of product was not scarcely changed during processing while amino-nitrogen content was increased and alginic acid and ash contents were decreased. The retention of chlorophyll and total carotenoid pigments of product against fresh sea mustard were 91.6% and 89.5% respectively. Judging from sensory evaluation, color, flavor, taste and dispersibility of powdered sea mustard juice were excellent and undesirable flavor of product was masked by addition of flour of roasted barley.

The lipid components of the gonad of sea urchin Hemicentrotus pulcherrimus, ark shell Scapharca bro-ughtonii and "Gaebul" (Korea name, a worm) Urechis unicinctus were investigated. The total lipid (TL) contents of the sea urchin, the ark shell and the "Gaebul" were 6.10, 0.67 and 0.79%, respectively. The percentages of phospholipid (PL) in TL were higher in the "Gaebul"(72.4%) and ark shell(64.9%) compared to the sea urchin (41.7%). The major lipid classes of PL were phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine, and the former was rich in the sea urchin (56.2%) and the latter in the "Gaebul"(34.4%). In the class of non-polar lipid (NL), the major lipid classes were different from species ; the sea urchin was rich in triglyceride(TG, 89.0%), the ark shell rich in TG (69.2%) and cholesterol (ST 26.8%) and the "Gaebul"rich in ST (70.7%). The prominent fatty acids of the sea urchin were 16 : 0, 14 : 0, 20 : 5n-3, 20 : 4n-6 and 20 : 4n-6 and 20 : 2NMID(non-methylene interupted dien). The percentage of 20 : 4n-6 was the highest of the investigated invertebrates, accounting for 19.8% in PL, but 22 : 6n-3 was not detected in the sea urchin. In case of the ark shell, the prominent fatty acids were 16 : 0, 18 : 0, 20 : 5n-3, 22 : 6n-3 and 22 : 2NMID, especially 22 : 6n-3(9.58%) was richer compared to that of the "Gaebul". The prominent fatty acids of the "Gaebul"were 20 : 5n-3, 16 : 0, 18 : 0 20 : 1n-9, 16 : 1n-7 and 14 : 0. The percentage of 20 : 5n-3 (22.0%) was highest in the PL of the "Gaebul"among the three invertebrates. These differences in the lipid components of all the sample is considered to be due to the different food habits and environmental condition of the invertebrates.

Physicochemical properties and mineral compositions of seaweed salts prepared with various seaweeds and concentrated sea water were determined. Ash content of sea mustard was highest (22.7%) and that of laver the lowest (9.8%). Sea mustard contained high amount of Na, while sea tangle and seaweed fusiforme contained high amounts of K and Ca. When insoluble solids were removed after incineration of dried salt, surface color of the salt whitened more due to increase in salt purity with resulting decreases in pH and oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), pH and ORP of the ashed salt decreased, and K and Ca contents increased, while Mg content decreased. Yield of seaweed salt was the highest in sea mustard, ORP was lowest in sea tangle and seaweed fusiforme, and K and Ca contents increased significantly in sea tangle and seaweed fusiforme salts. As the concentration of sea water increased, yield and purity of the salts increased with decrease in pH and ORP and increase in Ca and Mg contents. Seaweed salt showed the characteristic crystalline structure as viewed by SEM.

Purpose: This study investigated the quality characteristics of Jeungpyun prepared with brown rice and sea tangle powder. Methods: The pH, volume, and spreadability of the dough and moisture content, color, texture and sensory evaluation of the Jeungpyun were performed. Results: The results showed that the pH of the dough decreased in all sample groups with the lapse of fermentation time, and ultimately revealed a pH ranging from 4.55-4.65. The spreadability of the dough significantly decreased as the substitute amount of the brown rice flour increased; the sample group with 1% sea tangle powder showed a significantly larger spreadability than the sample group with 2% sea tangle powder (p<0.05). The moisture content in the Jeungpyun showed a significantly lower result as the substitute amount of brown rice flour increased (p<0.05). Lightness (L) was reduced as the substitute amount of brown rice flour increased, and redness (a) and yellowness (b) also appeared to increase. As a result of measuring the texture, the 50% sample group with a high substitute rate of brown rice flour was observed to have high characteristics of hardness, gumminess and chewiness, and was low in cohesiveness. The result of the acceptance test showed that the sample group that substituted 25% brown rice flour and added 1% sea tangle powder was evaluated to have a significantly higher acceptance than the sample group that added 2% sea tangle powder in terms of color, texture and overall acceptance. Conclusion: The result of the acceptance test showed that the sample group that substituted 25% of brown rice flour and added 1% of sea tangle powder showed higher tendency in all acceptance attributes than the sample group that did not substitute the brown rice flour to show the possibility of developing the Jeungpyun with brown rice.

The objective of this study was to develop a stock that can be used to make a variety of dishes. For this, stock was prepared with beef, chicken, and pork meat as animal meats as well as anchovy, mushroom, and sea tangle as other ingredients. The qualities of six[only four though] kinds of stocks made with beef only (B), beef and chicken (BC), beef and pork (BP), and beef added with chicken and pork (BCP), and seven kinds of stocks made with anchovy (A), mushroom (M), sea tangle (S), anchovy and mushroom (AM), anchovy and sea tangle (AS), mushroom and sea tangle (MS), and anchovy added with mushroom and sea tangle (AMS) were investigated by sensory evaluation. The most preferred stock made with animal meat was mixed with the most preferred stock made with other ingredients at a 5% level to test the synergistic effects of palatability. As a result, BCP stock and AMS stock obtained the highest scores for overall preference. BCP stock within the range of 30%-65% along with the mixed stock containing AMS (35%-70%) showed synergistic effects for palatability.

In order to study low salinity Oiji (cucumber pickled in salt) with a reduced content of sodium, which was accomplished by replacing the salt in this saliferous food, we produced Oiji using sea tangle and, then performed physicochemical and sensory evaluations. It was found that the moisture content of Oiji was decreased with increasing the amount of added sea tangle. The pH and acidity were significantly different between the samples made with sea tangle, and the pH and acidity showed no consistent tendency according to the amount of sea tangle powder added. The salinity of Oiji was the highest in the control Oiji (2.92%), and the higher the amount of sea tangle added, the lower was the salinity in the Oiji with the salt replaced by sea tangle (2.78 to 2.89%). The sodium content of Oiji was also the highest in the control Oiji (591.65 mg/100 g) and significantly decreased with the increasing addition of sea tangle (560.43~366.71 mg/100 g). The color value of Oiji showed a significant difference between the samples, with no consistent tendency according to the amount of added sea tangle powder. The hardness of Oiji was significantly greater in the Oiji with the salt replaced by 40% of sea tangle, with greater hardness noted as the amount of added sea tangle powder increased (217.70 g). As a result of the acceptance test of Oiji, there were significant differences between the samples in overall acceptance, appearance, and taste, showing that the Oiji with salt replaced by 30% of sea tangle was significantly highest in overall acceptance and taste. The attribute difference test showed a significant difference only for the brown color, while no significant differences were found between the samples for off-flavor, bitter taste, fermented taste, salty taste, sour taste, hardness and crispness. The above results demonstrated that when sea tangle was substituted for 30 to 40% of the salt content, the Oiji with a low content of sodium and low salinity can be produced with a high level of taste and overall preference. Therefore, this study firmly demonstrated that 30 to 40% of the salt can be replaced by sea tangle as a substitute in order to produce Oiji that has low salinity, a low sodium content.

In the present study, exposure to heavy metals by consumption of edible seaweeds (green laver, laver, hijiki, sea tangle, and sea mustard) was assessed based on their concentrations of lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), arsenic (As), and mercury (Hg). The mean of heavy metal concentrations were 0.006-0.023 mg/kg for Pb, 0.037-0.156 mg/kg for Cd, 1.117-15.928 mg/kg for As, and 0.008-0.021 mg/kg for Hg. In multivariate analysis, the correlations were high between Pb levels in sea mustard, Cb levels in laver, and As and Hg level in Hijiki. However, the estimated daily intake and target hazard quotient (THQ) of the heavy metals in edible seaweeds were below their approved limits suggesting no health risks associated with seaweed consumption by Koreans.

Seventy-one marine bacteria decomposing sea tangle (Laminaria japonica) into single cell detritus (SCD) were isolated from sea water, sea tangle, sea mustard (Undaria pinnatifida), sea urchin (Anthocidaris crassispina), star fish (Acanthaster planci), and turban cell (Batillus cornutus), among which 14 strains decreased cutting strength of sea tangle and had alginate-degrading activity. Marine bacterium No. 34 isolated from turban cell showed lowest cutting strength of sea tangle, strongest alginate-degrading activity, and produced high content of $5-10\;{\mu}m$ SCD from sea tangle. This strain was identified as Vibrio sp. based on morphological, physiological, and biochemical characteristics and named as Vibrio sp. YKW-34.

Seaweeds is a rich sources of dietary fibers exerting a number of physiological properties. However, the reported dietary fiber contents of seaweeds are not consistent and vary widely. Also. a limited number of studies on the biological effects of specific seaweeds have been reported. In this study, water-holding capacity, viscosity and antixidantive activity of major dietary seaweeds were measured to assess their physiological effects. Results showed that total dietary fiber contents ranged from 28 to 51% of dried weight, and large proportions of dietary fiber were insoluble fibers. Water-holding capacity was highest in sea mustard being 1310% , while laver, sea tangle, and green laver exhibited 943, 854 and 815%, respectively. The viscosity of seaweed samples was 20 to 40 cP in sea mustard and sea tangle, while laver and green laver possessed much lower values. All seaweed samples revealed a weak, albeit significant electron donating ability. Also, lipid peroxidation was reduced by 7 to 18%. However, there was no difference in antioxidative activity among seaweeds and sample concernations used. These results imply that most commonly used seaweeds possibly exert parts of their physiological effects through their water-holding, gel-forming , and/or antioxidative activities.

Protein-polysaccharides(PP) extracted from four species of gulfweed, fusiforme, sea-mustard and sea-tangle were examined for antitumor activity toward sarcoma-180 implanted in mice, ICR. Polysaccharides in protein-polysaccharides extracted from gulfweed, fusiforme, sea-mustard and sea-tangle were 61.48, 55.61, 34.06 and 30.28%, respectively. Monosaccharides of four seaweeds consisted of glucose, galactose, mannose, fructose and xylose, and major amino acids consisted of glutamic acid, aspartic acid, cystein, valine and glycine. Antitumor activity of the protein-polysaccharides extracted from sea-mustard showed the highest inhibition ratio of 69.76% when PP was injected to the mice at the dose of 100mg/Kg/day. PP of sea-tangle showed the maximum survival ratio of 25.22% when injected at the dose of 100mg/Kg/day.
