Effects of cold plasma treatment (CPT) against Salmonella Typhimurium inoculated on cabbage and lettuce, naturally occurring bacteria in black pepper powder and red pepper powder, and Bacillus cereus inoculated onto red pepper powder were investigated. The numbers of S. Typhimurium on cabbage and lettuce were reduced by $1.5{\pm}0.2CFU/cm^2$ (900W, 5 min) and $1.1{\pm}0.1$ log $CFU/cm^2$ (900W, 10 min), respectively. The numbers of naturally occurring aerobic bacteria in both black pepper powder and red pepper powder were reduced by $2.3{\pm}0.3$ and $0.6{\pm}0.2$ log CFU/g, respectively. The numbers of B. cereus vegetative cells on red pepper powder were reduced by $1.5{\pm}0.1$ log CFU/g, but the numbers of spores remained unchanged. The inhibition of S. Typhimurium on cabbage was adequately described by Fermi's model and the Weibull model. The predicted optimum treatment power and time for S. Typhimurium inoculated onto cabbage were 746 W and 6.8 min, respectively. Our results indicate that CPT represents a useful method for microbial decontamination of vegetables and spices.

This study compared and analyzed the consumption and amount of red pepper used in Baechu Kimchi (cabbage Kimchi) especially the amounts used in Kimchi recipes with respect to the passage of time from the 1930s to the 2010s. In this analysis, 78 recipes for cabbage Kimchi were taken from books, daily newspapers and magazines from 1930 to 2014 and collected for comparison. The result of the study showed that the consumption and inclusion of dried red pepper powder in cabbage Kimchi increased. The average consumption of red pepper in the 1930s was 5.75 g, and the number went up to 8.83 g in the 1940s, to 13.8 g in the 1950s, and to 20.25 g in the 1960s. The amount dramatically increased from 1970 to 1980 (53.37 g) and kept rising until 2010 (71.26 g). The average consumption of red pepper in cabbage Kimchi in the 2010s is about 12 times that of the 1930s.

To investigate the materials in the preparation of kimchi for Koreans in the Commonwealth of Independent States(CIS) a survey was completed by 199 Koreans living in Moscow, Sahalin, Uzbekistan and Jazahstan, In the way to purvey the materials of Kimchi, the frequency to get all the materials of Kimchi in the markets is 74.7% on the whole and by regional groups the frequency is relatively high in Moscow and Kazahstan, For the main ingredients most respondents use Chinese cabbage, cabbage, or turnips. In general Chinese cabbage is used most, But the respondents who live in Moxcow and Kazahstan. For the main ingredients most respondents use Chinese cabbage, cabbage, or turnips. In general Chinese cabbage is used most, But the respondents who live in Moscow and Kazahstan. 쫴 are younger, or belong to higher emigrant generation, prefer cabbage kimchi. For the additional vegetables many respondents use carrots. For the seasonings, garlic, red pepper powder, and salt are added to Kimchi, but the use of ginger, whole seasame seed, and waxy rice paste is relatively low. The coriander, which is not added to kimchi in Korea, is used in Kimchi By above 80% of the respondents living in the three regions except Sahalin. It is considered to be due to the effect of the western dining cultural area. For the animal materials, 74.4% of the respondents add lightly salted fish to Kimchi and all toe respondents in Sahalin add salt-fermented sea food, the kind of which is mainly salt-fermented croaker. The reasons given for not adding salt-fermented seafood to Kimchi in the three regions except Sahalin, 59.9% of the respondents said it was because of the difficulty to purvey, 21.1% because of the fishy taste, and 16.8% because of not considering the addition of self-fermented sea food in Kimchi. The higher the emigrant generation of respondents, the less seasonings of strong flavor like garlic, red pepper powder, and salt-fermented sea food are used, and the more coriander is used. In the salting of Kimchi preparation, 97.8% of the respondents salt the main vegetables by soaking in brine and its concentration is controlled by experience.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the quality characteristics of gluten-free frying pre-mix with insoluble dietary fiber powder (IDFP) from Chinese cabbage by-product. Methods: Frying powder mix was prepared with 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 or 2.0% IDFP. Fried powder mix only whit brown rice powder was used as a control. Spreadability, pick-up ratio and color of batter, texture, moisture and oil contents, oil absorption and sensory evaluation of fried sweet potato were determined. Results: L and a-values of batter decreased with increasing amount of IDFP, whereas b-value increased with IDFP addition. Hardness and crispiness of fried sweet potato increased with IDFP addition until 1.5%. Moisture content of fried sweet potato increased with higher IDFP addition whereas oil content and oil absorption decreased with increasing amount of IDFP. Sensory evaluation of fried sweet potato showed the best results in the 0.5% of IDFP addition group. Conclusion: Overall preference of IDFP samples was significantly higher than that of control. Based on the study, the optimal amount of IDFP for gluten-free fried powder mix was determined to be 0.5-1.5%.

Microbial fermentation is often used to improve the functionality of plant-based food materials. Herein, we investigated changes in the physicochemical and functional properties of cabbage during yeast fermentation to develop new products using fermented cabbage. Among the 8 types of food-grade yeast, both Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Saccharomyces boulardii fermented 10% cabbage powder solution (w/w) the most effectively, leaving no soluble sugars after 12 h of fermentation. In addition, the yeast fermentation of cabbage resulted in functionally positive outcomes in terms of sulforaphane content, antioxidant properties, and anti-inflammatory activity. Specifically, the yeast-fermented cabbages contained about 500% more sulforaphane. The soluble fraction (5 ㎍/ml) of yeast-fermented cabbage had no cytotoxicity in murine RAW 264.7 cells, and the radical-scavenging capacity was equivalent to 1 ㎍/ml of ascorbic acid. Moreover, cabbage fermented with S. boulardii significantly suppressed both lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-induced nitric oxide production and LPS-induced reactive oxygen species production in RAW 264.7 cells, suggesting a potential anti-inflammatory effect. These results support the idea that yeast fermentation is promising for developing functionally improved cabbage products.

Leuconostoc mesenteroides is used as a starter to produce high-quality kimchi products. In this study, an efficient and economical cabbage juice medium (CJM) was developed by process optimization of cabbage extraction and pasteurization and by compositional supplementation of various lacking nutrients. The pasteurized cabbage juice was determined to be a good medium candidate to cultivate L. mesenteroides, showing maximal cell numbers ($9.85{\times}10^8CFU/ml$) after 24 h. Addition of sucrose and yeast extract with soy peptone resulted in increment of bacterial cell counts in CJM, showing the supplementing effect of the lacking nutrients. Furthermore, addition of shell powder gave a protective effect on bacterial cells by preventing pH decline and organic acid accumulation in CJM, resulting in a 2-fold increase of bacterial counts. The optimized composition of CJM was 70% cabbage juice diluted with water, 0.5% (w/v) sucrose, 1% (w/v) yeast extract, 1% (w/v) soy peptone, and 1.5% (w/v) ark shell powder. The CJM developed in this study was able to yield a comparable level of bacterial counts with MRS medium and reduced the cost by almost 10-fold.

This study was conducted to investigate the application effects of dried food waste powder (FWP) and mixtures of FWP and organic fertilizer (MFOs) on the growth of lettuce and Chinese cabbage. The physicochemical properties of FWP and MFOs were analyzed. As FWPs containing 3.11% NaCl was applied at 250 kg, 500 kg and 1,000 kg per 10a, growth factors of lettuce and Chinese cabbage, such as a number of leaf, leaf length, leaf width, and dry weight were decreased than those of control appling organic fertilizer. The higher the FWP ratio in the MFOs, the lower the concentrations of N and P₂O₅ in the MFOs, while the higher the concentration of NaCl. As compared to dry weight of control after treating MFOs, lettuce were not significant in MFOs treatments containing 10~30% FWP, and Chinese cabbage in MFOs treatment containing 10% FWP.

In order to standardize the chinese cabbage kimchi, the preparation method, kinds of ingredients and levels of the ingredients were determined by the statistical survey of literatures obtained from cooking books, scientific papers and kimchi manufacturing factory. The standardized ingredient kinds and ratio of chinese cabbage kimchi were $13.0{\pm}7.0$ of radish, $2.0{\pm}0.5$ of green onion, $3.5{\pm}0.8\;or\;2.5{\m}0.3$ of red pepper powder, $1.4{\pm}0.4$ of garlic, $0.6{\pm}0.3$ of ginger, $2.2{\pm}1.6$ of anchovy juice, and $1.0{\pm}0.3$ of sugar in the proportion of 100 salted chinese cabbage, and the final salt concentration was adjusted to 2.7% using salt. Red pepper powder level was quite different from the literature sources, so sensory evaluation, chemical properties and antimutagenic effect and growth inhibitory effect on human cancer cells of the kimchi samples were studied to decide the proper ratio of the red pepper powder as an ingredient. Red pepper powder 3.5% (average level for kimchi manufacturing factory) added kimchi was better in quality than red pepper powder 2.5% (average level for cooking books and scientific papers) added kimchi in sensory evaluation and chemical properties. The juice of red pepper powder 3.5% added kimchi showed not only the stronger antimutagenicity against aflatoxin $B_1$ in Salmonella typhimurium TA100 but also the higher inhibitory effect on the growth of AGS human gastric adenocarcinoma cells in SRB assay than that of red pepper powder 2.5% added kimchi. In conclusion, the standardized ratio of the ingredients was 13.0 radish, 2.0 green onion, 3.5 red pepper powder, 1.4 garlic, 0.6 ginger, 2.2 anchovy juice, 1.0 sugar, and 2.7 final salt concentration in the proportion of 100 salted chinese cabbage.

Blending of eggshell powder into soil as ratio of 1:5, 1:10, 1:15, 1:20, and 1:25 did not affect seed germination rates of several crops including Chinese cabbage. The blending increased pH of distilled water and decreased the viability of resting spores of Plasmodiophora hrassicae. The ratio of non-viable resting spores in eggshell-blending water was over five times higher than in distilled water of the same pH. Chinese cabbage (cv. 'Norangbom') grew more in eggshell-blended soil than in non-treated soil, but other crops grew less. Leaf numbers and above ground growth of Norangbom increased to around 150% and 470%, respectively, in soil blended with $1:20{\sim}1:15$ of eggshell powder. Even though the optimum sizes of eggshell powder were $0.8{\sim}2.0mm$ for growth and smaller than 0.4 mm for inhibition of clubroot disease of Chinese cabbage, there was no statistical difference among the sizes. Soil pH was above 8.0 in all eggshell treatments without any statistical difference among them. Eggshell powder blending to 1:20 showed lower control efficacy, 58.5%, than registered fungicide 'Hokanna (flusulfamide)', 78.5%. However, Chinese cabbage of that blending ratio recorded the highest growth among the treatments. Therefore, blending of eggshell powder into clubroot-contaminated soil may make culture of Chinese cabbage possible by growth-increasing, even though eggshell powder could not inhibit clubroot disease entirely.
