This study was conducted to investigate the changes of mineral contents in radish leaves, soybean sprout and chwi namul by cooking method(boiling, steaming, sauting) and cooking time(1, 3, 5 min.). The residual rate of minerals(such as Calcium, Sodium, Potassium, Iron and Magnesium) in radish leaves, soybean sprout and chwi namul by 1 minute sauting was the range of 83.2 to 99.1%. It was shown that sauting was desirable method for all three vegetables. The residual rate by the cooking method was sauting, steaming, boiling, in that order, but boiling in radish leaves and chwi namul were more desirable method than steaming for Calcium use. At the cooking method and cooking time, Potassium content in soybean sprout was reduced remarkably in 5 minutes boiling. Boiling of radish leaves and soybean sprout showed that Sodium was reduced remarkably after 5 minutes of boiling, 54.4% for radish leaves and 19.9% for soybean sprout, respectively.

The efficacy of citric acid-aqueous chlorine dioxide ($ClO_2$) treatment of radish seeds artificially contaminated with Escherichia coli was studied. Radish seeds were inoculated with E. coli. Following inoculation, samples were stored at $4^{\circ}C$ and soaked in citric acid or aqueous $ClO_2$ for 10 min. The treatment of radish seeds using 200 ppm aqueous $ClO_2$ solution caused a 1.5 log CFU/g reduction in the population of E. coli. Compared to the aqueous $ClO_2$ treatment, soaking radish seeds in 2.0% citric acid solution for 10 min was more effective in reducing E. coli populations on radish seeds. The efficacy of spray application of chlorine (100 ppm) or 0.5% citric acid to eliminate E. coli during the germination and growth of radish was investigated. Radish seed inoculated with E. coli was treated for the duration of the growth period. Although it resulted in a decrease in the E. coli population, the spray application of 100 ppm chlorine during the growth period was not significantly effective. In contrast, the combined treatment of seeds using 200 ppm aqueous $ClO_2$ and treatment of sprouts with 0.5% citric acid solution during sprout growth was hardly effective in eliminating E. coli.

As sprout vegetables of interest growing, its maintaining the quality of the technology was needed to solve the problem of increasing growth and maintain quality after harvest. This experiment proved that the quality of radish sprout vegetable was affected by CO₂ treatment during cultivation. Thus, the effect of CO₂ treatment during cultivation on postharvest quality of radish sprout vegetable was investigated in terms of the quality changes in weight loss, gas partial pressure, SPAD, hue angle external appearance during storage at polypropylene film (thickness 30 ㎛) at 10℃. CO₂ treatment used the way to gas with 700 ppm or carbonated water with 700 ppm and 1,400 ppm. The study revealed that growths on CO₂ treated plant were more than those of non-treatment on stem length. After harvesting, the CO₂ treated plant and control growing little different characteristics on fresh weight, plant length and so on. However, there were no differences between the CO₂ treated plant and control on the Fv/Fm and SOD (superoxide dismutase). In gas partial pressure, the O₂ consumption and CO₂ accumulation of the CO₂ treated plant tended to be more than that of non-treated plant. This study also checked that after packaging, the effects of CO₂ treatment during cultivation on the quality of radish sprout vegetable was not significant. However, there were tended to CO₂ treatments were lower value compared to control on SPAD, hue angle and general appearance. CO₂ treatments of radish sprouting vegetable before harvest were improve growth of stem length, but ones were not improving the maintain of quality on radish sprout vegetable during shelf-life period. The results indicated that CO₂ treatment only affected stem elongation until radish sprout vegetable its growth.

This study was conducted to compare the storability of some sprout vegetables; alfalfa, broccoli, radish, red-cabbage, and red-radish, packed with 50 low density polyethylene (LDPE) film in MA storage. Most of all 5 different sprout vegetable crops maintained the fresh weight higher than 99% until 10 days storage at 2 and $8^{\circ}C$. The carbon dioxide concentration in packages was higher at 8 than at $2^{\circ}C$. It was higher in radish and red-radish sprouts than other crops. As the oxygen concentration showed opposite trends to carbon dioxide, that of radish and red-radish sprouts decreased more than 3% after 3 days in 8 storage. Ethylene concentration in the packages of alfalfa was 0.1 ppm, significantly higher than other four crops with less than 1.0 ppm. Temperature treatment, however, did not influence the ethylene concentration in packages. The radish and red-radish sprouts, with lowest oxygen concentration in package, showed lowest off-flavor compared to the others. The visual quality of these sprouts in packages showed higher at $2^{\circ}C\;than\;at\;8^{\circ}C$ and was maintained the highest in radish sprouts, followed by red-radish, broccoli, red-cabbage, and alfalfa sprouts in that order. In conclusion, as the sprout vegetables have different shelf-life, of which radish was $4{\sim}5$ days longer than that of alfalfa the distributed condition of sprout vegetables should be differently controlled according to kinds of crops.

We investigated the effects of bean sprouts (Glycine max), dropwort (Oenanthe javanica), and radish (Raphanus sativus var. hortensis for. acanthiformis) extracts on alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH). The extracts from three kinds of vegetables were prepared by extracting with boiling water, distilling water, and ethyl alcohol. Among extracts, boiling water extract showed the highest activating effect on ADH, respectively and distilled water extract had a greater effect on ADH activation than that of alcohol extract. The ADH facilitating effect of bean sprout extract by distilled water was significantly higher than dropwort or radish, hut the effect of the bean sprout extract by ethyl alcohol was lower than others. The facilitating effect on ADH of mixture extracts of bean sprout and dropwort were mixed at 1 : 1 mixture of boiled-water extract showed the highest effectiveness. And bean sprout extract separated below 3000 molecular weight (MW) range of extract fraction had greater ADH activity than large MW parts.

The consumption of radish ( Rhaphanus sativus L.) sprout, which is Cruciferae family, is increasing because of its pungent flavor and taste. Its volatile components were analyzed by SDE (simultaneous steam distillation & extraction) method and P&T(purge & cryogenic trapping) method. As a solvent, diethyl ether and diethyl ether : pentane mixture(2:1, v/v) were used in SDE method, and diethyl ether in P&T method. Analyzing by GC and GC-MS, the major component was sulfur compounds (19 species, peak area 76.6%) with diethyl ether, sulfur compounds(15. 44.0%) and hydrocarbons(23, 23.8%) with diethyl ether-pentane mixture in SDE method. Also, hydrocarbons(25, 84.1% ) was major component in P& T method. The major volatile component of fresh radish sprout were n-heptane, methyl pentane and that of boiled radish sprout were 4-methylthio-3-butenyl isothiocyanate, methyl mercaptane, 2,3-dimethyl disulfide. Low molecular volatile components were detected more by P& T method, but types and relative quantities of volatile components were measured less comparing to SDE method.

This study investigated the changes in the physicochemical properties of soybean sprout, radish, and pork loin during frozen Bibimbab production. The qualities of soybean sprout were affected by the blanching, thawing, and cooking processes, with the blanching process particularly regarded as an important process to attribute the overall quality of the soybean sprouts in the final product. High weight loss of radish was found in the thawing and cooking processes, while the weight loss was relatively lower than that of soybean sprout. However, mixing with hot rice can be attributed for the steep decrease in shear force of the radish. For pork meat, normally thermal treatment such as mixing with hot rice and cooking manifested quality deterioration. Based on the results, mixing process appeared to be the most important process which affected the final quality of the materials. To improve the quality of final frozen Bibimbab, therefore, it was recommended to freeze the food ingredient separately from rice prior to packaging, which warranted the follow up exploration.

This study was conducted to investigate the antioxidant contents and activities of twelve vegetable sprouts (broccoli, red radish, radish, mizuna, kale, taatsai, pak choi, Chinese cabbage, turnip, rapeseed, chicory, and alfalfa). The total flavonoid contents of the broccoli, red radish, and radish sprout were $25.36{\pm}0.13$, $25.26{\pm}1.80$, and $25.16{\pm}1.25mg$ CE/100 g FW, respectively, and were significantly higher than those of the other tested vegetables. Radish sprouts had the highest total phenolic content (112.42 mg GAE/100 g FW), followed by red radish and broccoli sprouts. The main polyphenols in the vegetable sprouts were epicatechin and chlorogenic acid, but they varied across sprout varieties. The correlation between total flavonoids and total phenolics for the 12 vegetable sprouts was very high (r=0.926). The total antioxidant activity (DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities) was also highly correlated with total flavonoids and total phenolics.

Red radish seeds were irradiated at doses up to 8 kGy using electron beam (e-beam) and gamma ray ($\gamma$-ray). The seed viability and functional properties (carotenoid, chlorophyll, ascorbic acid, and total phenol) of sprouts grown from these irradiated seeds were evaluated. High germination percentage ($\geq$97%) was observed in seeds irradiated at $\leq$5 kGy, but the yield ratio and sprout length significantly decreased with increased irradiation dose. Irradiation at $\geq$6 kGy resulted in curling of the sprout roots. Sprouting enhanced the functional properties of red radish seeds as indicated by the increased carotenoid, chlorophyll, ascorbic acid, and total phenol contents during germination. However, radiation treatment hampered the growth of seeds resulting in underdeveloped sprouts with decreased carotenoid, chlorophyll, ascorbic acid, and total phenol contents. In general, e-beam and $\gamma$-ray irradiation of red radish seeds showed similar effects on the seed viability and functional properties of sprouts. Postharvest storage reduced the functional quality of sprouts.
