This study was performed by questionnaire to investigation the nutrition knowledge, the recognition, the preference and the actual state of use of sea mustard. The subjects of this study were consisted of 901 people (426 males and 475 females) in the Daegu and Kyungpook area. The results were summarized as follows: The nutrition knowledge score of sea mustard was 11.1 for male and 12.8 for female, respectively. The recognition non sea mustard dishes showed a high mean value of 4.11 to "healthy food". 54% of the respondent liked sea mustard and favorite dish was in the order of soup, fresh, cold soup, Wrapped, salted, fried sea mustard. Soup of sea mustard was the best favorite dish, followed by fresh sea mustard, cold soup, wrapped, salted, fried sea mustard, in descending order. Soaking time of sea mustard was 11~20 minutes and its percentage is 31.1%, 39.6% of responders suggested ′good quality′ as facts that has been improved in the commercial sea mustard.

Salted sea mustard (Undaria pinnatifida) was irradiated (0, 2,4 kGy) and stored for 6 months at $10{\pm}1^{\circ}C\;and\;30{\pm}2^{\circ}C$, respectively. Quality deterioration of stored salted sea mustard was observed to closely relate with the growth of halophilic bacteria and yeast. Gamma irradiation with 2 to 4 kGy doses reduced initial microbial loads of salted sea mustard by 1 to 2 log orders, but had little influence on the propagation during storage. Organoleptic characteristics of the sample showed no signifiant difference between nonirradiated control and irradiated samples during storage. Thus, gamma irradiation was little effective for improving the microbiological and organoleptic qualities of salted sea mustard associated with its storage stability.

The effect of gamma irradiation on physico-chemical properties of salted sea mustard (Undaria pinnatifida) was investigated. Chlorophyll and carotenoid pigment of salted sea mustard were partially decreased by irradiation. However there was no significant difference in the retention rate of pigment between control and 2 kGy-irradiated samples after six months of storage at around $10^{\circ}C$, ranging values of 74 to 77% in chlorophyll and 54 to 56% in carotenoid. Total organic acids and volatile acids associated with the organoleptic quality of sea mustard increased in the samples of lower salt concentrations and of higher storage temperatures. The softening of sample tissue by irradiation was shown to be correlated with the extraction properties of alginic acid.

The market conditions of sea mustard is changing by overproduction, decreasing price, Import of blanched and salted sea mustard from China into Korea domestic market and increasing market share of sea mustard of China in Japan. In addition, the price support program in sea mustard aquaculture must be modified due to the restriction of domestic support by international organization such as WTO. There are two ways to solve those problems. First is that finding a way to solve the overproduction of sea mustard. One of possible ways is the production adjustment by Marketing Order. Second is that finding an alternative way to replace price support program. The possible way is Direct Payment instead of purchase stockpile system. To introduce marketing Order, outlook center, organization of self-management, production adjustment through output control measure, improvement of market structure, and education/publicity arc necessary. Also, to implement marketing order, setting a model business by government is required. There are two steps for implementation of marketing order. First step is to construct Order Committee including organization of producer, people related marketing. However, this committee must run by government for certain short-term. Second step is to improve quality of product and acceleration of demand. At visual point that enforcement of the first step is completed, government has process that government transfers Order Committees self-correcting. It is desirable that government only conduct the support acts such as quality improvement and acceleration of demand. Also, at early stage it is necessary to have aid system for marketing order For example, we can expect that income increase by production adjustment in long run. However, in short run the income of producer may decrease so, it is required to compensate his economic lose. For compensation, The useful means that can be utilized is direct payment. Direct payment is not continued policy. Also, when production adjustment policy such as Marketing Order has effective results, Direct Payment as an assistant measure must be reduced or abolished. Therefore, when production adjustment acts as an effective tool to control overproduction, Direct Payment system.

In order to improve the quality of salted sea mustard, the conditions of blanching, salting, and storage were examined. The process in which sea mustard was blanched for 20 seconds in boiling seawater, soaked in saturated brine solution for 20 hours and then salted for 10 hours by the spreading 10~20% (w/w) of granulated dry salt to obtain the moisture content of about 60% or below, resulted a good color retention of chlorophyll and carotenoid pigments, and organoleptic quality. The shelf-life of the product estimated by 30-40% pigment retention was 50-60days when stored at $4^{\circ}C$ or below.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the changes of cholesterol contents during the processing of various marine products. For the above purpose, squid, eel, mackerel, baby clam and sea mustard were sun-dried, roasted, salted-dried, boiled-dried and salted, respectively. In raw samples, the highest content of cholesterol was 761 mg/100g in squid, following by eel, baby clam, mackerel and sea mustard in order, and there was no significant relationship between cholesterol and lipid contents. The cholesterol contents of the used samples were decreased during the processing except baby clam. The decreasing ratios of the cholesterol contents during the processing were $66.4\%$ in squid, $43.6\%$ in eel, $41\%$ in mackerel and $58\%$ in sea mustard. While the cholesterol content of baby clam was increased by 1.6 times compared with that of raw sample. Considered from the results, it seems that the changes of cholesterol content during processing depended upon the changes of lipid content in the sample.

The number of elderly in care facilities is increasing in parallel with a rapid increase in the elderly population in Korea. We analyzed the meal satisfaction ratings, food preferences, and nutritional intakes of 74 patients aged ≥65 years living in a nursing hospital in Daegu. Food preferences were high for cooked rice, rice gruel, meat soup, soybean paste stew, beef, frozen pollack, squid, egg, spinach, sea mustard, cabbage kimchi, apple, peanut, drinking yogurt, pickled perilla leaves, and salted squid. Preferences for duck (P<0.01) and vegetable (P<0.01) cooking method were significantly different for men and women, and preference for soybean paste stew increased with age (P<0.05). Regarding nutrient intakes, men had higher energy (P<0.01), carbohydrates (P<0.05), and zinc (P<0.05) intakes than women, while women had higher vitamin C (P<0.05) intake than men. Furthermore, energy (P<0.001), carbohydrates (P<0.001), protein (P<0.05), dietary fiber (P<0.01), vitamin B₆ (P<0.01), phosphorus (P<0.05), and zinc (P<0.001) intakes significantly decreased with age. Men had a significantly higher nutrient adequacy ratios (NARs) for carbohydrates (P<0.05) and cal- cium (P<0.01) than women, while women had a significantly higher NARs for protein (P<0.05), vitamin A (P<0.01), vitamin C (P<0.05), thiamine (P<0.01), riboflavin (P<0.001), iron (P<0.001), and zinc (P<0.01). Mean adequacy ratios were 0.69 for men and 0.75 for women. In particular, NARs for carbohydrates (P<0.01), vitamin B₆ (P<0.01), and calcium (P<0.05) decreased significantly with age. In summary, the study shows that supplementing vitamin C, vitamin B₆, calcium, and iron, reducing sodium, and providing meals that reflect preferences will improve the nutritional statuses of elderly residents in a nursing hospital.
