The nutritional value of kimchi is gaining global focus along with new possibilities and uses for the various salts used in making kimchi. The purpose of the study is to conduct research on the uses of various salts and investigate the consumer recognition of salt use in kimchi preparation. The findings are from 824 consumers over 19 years old from 15 locations who participated in this questionnaire via one-to-one interviews from September 23rd to October 14th, 2009. The results of the questionnaire show that when customers cooked, 71.9% used solar salt, 62.2% used flower salt (refined salt), 27.4% used Hanju salt (purified salt), 59.0% used processed salt (roasted salt), 47.4% used bamboo salt, 69.4% used Mat salt (table salt), and 18.2% used low sodium salt. The most preferred origin of salts was domestic. Most customers salted Chinese cabbage while preparing kimchi. Consumers showed low perceptions of different salts used in kimchi production, and did not exactly recognize the characteristics of various salts. The preferences for domestic and solar salts were very high, while the preference for sea salts was low. In conclusion, various types of salts could improve the quality of kimchi. This study hopes to help consumers produce better kimchi to match different needs. Therefore, attention should be paid to promoting the characteristics of various salts influencing the quality of kimchi.

The effects of Korean solar salt on an azoxymethane (AOM)/dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colon cancer C57BL/6 mouse model were studied. Korean solar salt samples (SS-S, solar salt from S salt field; SS-Yb, solar salt from Yb salt field), nine-time-baked bamboo salt (BS-9x, made from SS-Yb), purified salt (PS), and SS-G (solar salt from $Gu\acute{e}rande$, France) were orally administered at a concentration of 1% during AOM/DSS colon cancer induction, and compared for their protective effects during colon carcinogenesis in C57BL/6 mice. SS-S and SS-Yb suppressed colon length shortening and tumor counts in mouse colons. Histological evaluation by hematoxylin and eosin staining also revealed suppression of tumorigenesis by SS-S. Conversely, PS and SS-G did not show a similar suppressive efficacy as Korean solar salt. SS-S and SS-Yb promoted colon mRNA expression of an apoptosis-related factor and cell-cycle-related gene and suppressed pro-inflammatory factor. SS-Yb baked into BS-9x further promoted these anti-carcinogenic efficacies. Taken together, the results indicate that Korean solar salt, especially SS-S and SS-Yb, exhibited anti-cancer activity by modulating apoptosis- and inflammation-related gene expression during colon carcinogenesis in mice, and bamboo salt baked from SS-Yb showed enhanced anti-cancer functionality.

A salt-tolerant cellulase secreted by a marine Bacillus sp. SR22 strain with wide resistance to temperature and pH was purified and characterized. Its approximate mass was 37 kDa. The endoglucanase, named as Bc22Cel, was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, gel filtration chromatography, and extraction from the gel after non-reducing sodium dodecyl sufate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The optimal pH value and temperature of Bc22Cel were 6.5 and $60^{\circ}C$, respectively. The purified Bc22Cel showed a considerable halophilic property, being able to maintain more than 70% of residual activity even when pre-incubated with 1.5 M NaCl for 1 h. Kinetic analysis of the purified enzyme showed the $K_m$ and $V_{max}$ to be 0.704 mg/ml and $29.85{\mu}mol{\cdot}ml^{-1}{\cdot}min^{-1}$, respectively. Taken together, the present data indicate Bc22Cel as a potential and useful candidate for industrial applications, such as the bioconversion of sugarcane bagasse to its derivatives.

Low moleuclar weight (LMW) RNAs were isolated form Korean peonies which expressed symptoms of stunt and epinasty. The LMW plant RNAs were purified by Qiagen column chromatography which could separate viroid specific nucleic acid at differential salt concentration. After the inoculation of the purified RNAs from the peonies, the inoculated tomatoes (cv. Rutgers) expressed the symptoms of stunt and epinasty. Also the same molecular weight RNAs with viroid-like RNAs were isolated from the inoculated tomatoes. Double-stranded cDNA were synthesized by the methods of reverse transcription (RT) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with the purified RNA and primers. The same cDNAs associated with viroid-like RNAs wre cloned from the inoculated tomatoes. The cDNA has been sequenced and its 375-nucleotides were arranged into secondary structure. The cloned cDNA showed 47~54% homology compared with other viroids. The sequence homology of the cloned cDNA were partially high with plant genomic RNAs.

The ovarian follicular fluid was found to contain steroidogenesis stimulatory protein similar to albumin from human and buffalo. Therefore, the albumins from various species, commercial and purified, were studied for their steroidogenic effect on progesterone secretion by granulosa cells from buffalo ovaries, during culture. A dose of $20{\mu}g$ of bovine serum albumin was optimum to exhibit maximum progesterone secretion on day 6 of culture, in medium ($350{\mu}l$) containing $10^5$ cells. Among commercial albumins, chicken albumin showed highest effect on progesterone secretion, which was followed by albumins from goat, bovine, human, sheep and rat, respectively at day 6 of culture. The albumins were also purified from blood serum of buffalo, goat and rat using salt fractionation, ion-exchange chromatography, gel filtration and SDS-PAGE. The highest stimulatory effect on progesterone secretion was shown by albumin purified from buffalo blood serum and lowest by that from rat blood. Comparatively the buffalo and goat albumins were more biologically active than commercial albumins. The presence of some active molecules conjugated with freshly purified albumins may be responsible for better stimulatory effect.

This study was conducted to investigate the characteristics of apple fermentation when different types of salt were used during apple fermentation, and when salt was added or not. The pH decreased in all experimental groups during the fermentation process, and the final pH was 4.72-3.31. The sugar content was 17.8-18.5 °Brix, the lowest in the sea salt (FAS), and the highest in the control group (FA). The acidity was measured as 0.48-0.56%, which was high in the control group (FA), and was 0.83-1.06% on the 7th day of final fermentation. The alcohol content was generated from the 5th day of fermentation, and the control group (FA) showed a distribution of 39.23-29.4%, and the alcohol content was higher in the control group than in the experimental group, As for the total polyphenol content and total DPPH content, it was confirmed that the purified salt (3.11 mg GAE/mL) showed the highest total polyphenol content than the control (2.25 mg GAE/mL). When salt was added, the fermentation progress was excellent, and when the salt concentration was high, it was confirmed that the possibility of apple fermentation was high.

사용 소금에 따른 된장의 암세포 성장 억제효과를 조사하기 위하여 4종의 천일염(1년 숙성 천일염, 4년 숙성 천일염, 토판염, 육염)을 사용하여 된장을 제조하였다. 대조구로는 정제염을 사용한 된장을 제조하여 실험을 수행하였다. 된장의 모든 제조 조건(원료, 제조방법, 발효 미생물, 발효조건 등)을 동일하게 하여주고 소금의 종류만을 달리하여 발효된 된장이 인체 위암세포(AGS)와 대장암세포(HT-29)의 성장 억제효과와 인간 정상세포(BJ)에 미치는 세포 독성을 조사하였다. 숙성된 된장을 물과 메탄올을 이용해 추출하여 사용 소금에 따른 된장의 암세포 성장억제효과를 MTT assay를 사용해 살펴보았다. 소금의 종류를 달리한 된장의 물 추출물과 메탄올 추출물은 AGS 위암세포, HT-29 결장암세포 대해서 모두 농도 의존적으로 높은 세포생육 억제율을 나타내었다. AGS의 경우 4년 숙성 천일염 된장의 물 추출물과 메탄올 추출물이 최대 처리 농도인 1.000 mg/mL에서 53%, 55%의 억제율을 나타내어 다른 종류의 소금에 비해 암세포 생육 억제효과가 매우 뛰어남을 확인하였다. 이어서 토판염, 육염, 1년 숙성 천일염, 정제염순으로 암세포 생육 저해 효과를 나타내는 것으로 관찰되었다. HT-29의 경우 AGS에 대한 암세포 성장 억제효과보다는 다소 낮지만 물 추출물의 최대 처리 농도 시 4년 숙성 천일염이 44%의 억제율을 보여 가장 높았으며 나머지 4종의 소금으로 제조한 된장들은 30~40% 정도의 억제 효과가 관찰되었다. 또한 메탄올 추출물에서도 위와 비슷한 경향을 보임을 확인하였으며 소금의 종류를 달리한 된장의 물 추출물과 메탄올 추출물은 모두 정상세포 BJ에 대해 세포독성을 거의 나타내지 않았으며 오히려 세포 성장효과를 보였다. 모든 추출물에서 우수한 암세포 생육 억제현상을 나타낸 4년 숙성 천일염 된장의 메탄올 추출물을 AGS, HT-29, BJ 세포에 처리하였을 때, 정상세포 BJ에 대해서는 처리 전후로 큰 차이가 관찰되지는 않았으나 세포 밀도의 감소와 함께 일부 세포 수축 현상을 관찰할 수 있었다. 따라서 이러한 결과들은 천일염 된장이 암세포 생육억제에 좋으며 그 중에서도 4년 숙성 천일염 된장이 가장 뛰어난 항암효과를 지님을 시사하고 있다.
