The purpose of this study was to determine the contents of water-soluble vitamins B₁ (thiamine), B₂ (riboflavin), B₃ (niacin) and B₁₂ (cyanocobalamin) in seafood-based dishes by using the high-performance liquid chromatography with the ultra violet and fluorescence detector. The vitamin B₁, B₂, B₃ and B₁₂ contents were analyzed in 29 seafood-based dishes. The method validation was performed on the method to determine the linearity, accuracy, limits of quantification, limits of detection and precision for vitamin B₁, B₂, B₃ and B₁₂. An excellent linearity range (R²=0.999~1.000) in the calibration curve for the water-soluble vitamins was observed. All analytical methods for the water-soluble vitamins showed the acceptable accuracy (89.4~119.7% recovery) and the precision (0.6~4.8% repeatability and 1.0~4.2% reproducibility). The highest content of vitamin B₁ was 2.646 mg/100 g in the kkongchi-jorim, and the highest contents of vitamin B₂, B₃ and B₁₂ were 0.370 mg/100 g, 10.971 mg/100 g, and 17.193 ㎍/100 g, respectively, in the kkongchi-gui. Our results provide reliable data on the contents of the water-soluble vitamins of seafood-based dishes in Korea.

This study was designed to find out the nutritional defect of general Korean diet and the effective way of nutritional supplementation. Seventy weanling Sprague-Dawley male rats weighing 51.8$\pm$0.9g were blocked into ten groups and fed ten different diets ad libitum for eight weeks: Standard groups(st gp) was given 72% sugar-20% casein diet: Cereal-vegetable group(c-v gp) was fed cereal-vegetable diet(c-v diet) composed of rice, barley, soybean, spinach and cabbage: the other eight groups were fed c-v diets supplemented with casein, vitamin $B_{2}$, calcium, vitamin A, vitamin B2 and A, vitamin A and calcium, vitamin $B_{2}$ and calcium, vitamin A and $B_{2}$and calcium, respectively, on the basis of each nutrients content of standard diet. The results were as follows: 1. Food intakes and body weight gains in all the experimental groups were significantly lower than st gp. Among experimental groups, casein gp and vit B2 gp tended to gain more body weights than c-v gp. 2. Through all the experimental period, F.E.R., pp.E.R., and NDPcal% did nod show significant differences among all the experimental groups and st gp. 3. The weights of liver, kidney, and gastrocnemius were significantly lower in all the experimental groups as compared with st gp. But brain and sex organ weights did not show differences among all the groups. 4. Nitrogen contents of total carcass, liver, and gastrocnemius in all the experimental groups tended to be increased as compared with st gp, and among experimental groups, they tended to be increased by casein supplementation and decreased by ca supplementation. 5. Apparent nitrogen digestibility, urinary and fecal nitrogen excretion, the amount of nitrogen retained, and N.P.U. did not show any significant differences among all the groups. 6. Serum total protein concentrations did not show any significant differences among all the groups.

In order to expand the acceptability of irradiated foods by public, substantial basic data about the change of nutrient contents during irradiation are needed. The nutrient contents and digestibility of macronutrients such as carbohydrates, proteins and lipids in foods are known to be not significantly influenced by irradiation treatment. However, some of the vitamins among micronutrients are susceptible to irradiation to a large extent depending upon the food composition, food process and storage condition. This study was conducted to investigate change of thiamin in chicken breast, and vitamin C in strawberry and mandarine orange after irradiation. The effects of irradiation at frozen or refrigerated state and the effects of cooking such as heating or micron ave on thiamin contents in chicken breast were observed. Irradiation reduced the thiamin content, however, temperature condition during irradiation was much more important factor to the loss of thiamin contents. In strawberry, vitamin C content was significantly affected by original content or the variety rattler than treatments such as irradiation, heating or microwave. These results indicated that the losses of water-soluble vitamins, especially thiamin or vitamin C, are affected by food temperature during irradiation process and variety or composition of foods rallier than irradiation itself, within an acceptable range of irradiation.

The effect of irradiation of heat treatment either alone or in combination on the shelf-life of mixed mountain edible herb drinks (MMEHD) was investigated during storage. The MMEHD made from fresh Spuriopinella bracycarpar, Ligularia fischeri and Aster scaber was gamma -irradiated at doses of 0.1 kGy to 1 kGy. Microbial population, color change, vitamin C content, and sensory quality were evaluated during storage at 4, 25 and 35oC. Heated MMEHD induced the growth of total counts, mold and yeast as compared to the non-heated MMEHD. While some reduction in the microbial growth was observed in 1kGy-irradiated groups of both with or without heating. In both groups, L and b values decreased, but a value increased during storage. Also, heating drinks showed increased L and b values and reduced a value, compared to the non-heating drinks. Non-heated drinks showed 82% loss of vitamin C, whereas 25% loss of vitamin C was occurred in the irradiated drinks during storage at 4oC for 4days. In the meanwhile, non-irradiated heating drinks showed 99% loss of vitamin C, but irradiated heating drinks showed 58-65% reduction of vitamin C. Non-irradiated drinks without heating showed more bright color than irradiated ones, but irradiated drinks showed more enhanced brightness during storage. Also, irradiated drinks showed better falvor, sensory quality, and overall acceptability than non-irradiated drinks.

Objectives: Use of dietary supplements containing vitamins and minerals is growing in Korean adults, especially in pregnant and lactating women. Vitamin and mineral supplements are available in different composition and in a wide range of contents. The purposes of the study were to examine nutrient composition and content of vitamin and mineral supplements for pregnant and lactating women and assess their appropriateness as dietary supplements. Methods: Information on the name, manufacturer, nutrient composition, and usage of vitamin and mineral supplements for pregnant and lactating women were obtained from the homepage of the Food Safety Information Portal managed by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, and Korean Index of Medical Specialties. A total of 264 products were identified. Results: Among 264 products, 26.1% were single nutrient products, and 73.9% were multinutrient products. The most commonly included nutrient was iron (70.1%), folic acid (66.3%), vitamin $B_{12}$ (45.8%), vitamin C (38.6%), and vitamin $B_6$ (38.6%). Although more than 50% of products contained nutrients less than 150% of Recommended Nutrient Intakes or Adequate Intakes for daily use, some products contained inappropriately high amounts of nutrients. When a maximum daily dose of supplements was taken as described on the label, iron in 73 products (39.5%), folic acid in 14 products (8.0%) were likely to be consumed in amounts greater than Tolerable Upper Intake Levels. Most products were assessed as inappropriate for pregnant women due to the possibility of excessive intake of vitamins or minerals when compared with Dietary Reference Intakes. Conclusions: Pregnant and lactating women need to carefully select dietary supplements containing adequate amounts of vitamins and minerals. Nutritionists should provide guidelines regarding selection of appropriate vitamin and mineral supplements for pregnant and lactating women.

Pantothenic acid and biotin contents in Panax Ginseng roots were determined microbiologically with L. arabinosus 17-5. Detection of the vitamins was achieved by the thin-layer chromatography and PPC. Pantothenic acid and biotin were found at the Rf values of 0.42 and 0.55 respectively on the thin-layer chromatograms. In order to find out whether or not the L. arabinosus growth promoting factors contained in the respective ginseng extracts, as shown by the microbiological assay, were really the vitamins respectively, PPC was carried out. Microbiological assay of the vitamins met with results that the average pantothenic acid content in the roots was 6.6r/g, calculated as Ca-pantothenate, and the average biotin content 9.24 mr/g.

This study was performed to assess the nutritional status of nursing home residents and to assess the effect of nutrition intervention. The subjects were 123 people aged over 60 years from 5 different nursing homes. The nutrition intervention study was carried out by supplementing their diet with multivitamin-minerals for 2 months. The mean intakes of most nutrients did not meet the RDA, Though the nutrient content of the menus provided by the facilities were satisfactory. Nutrients of which intakes fell below 75% of the RDA were protein, Ca, Fe, vitamin A vitamin B$_1$, and vitamin B$_2$. The BMIs of male and female subjects were 22.0kg/$m^2$ and 24.6kg/$m^2$ and the WHRs were 0.92 and 0.90, respectively. The percentage of subjects with hypertention (BP$\geq$140/90mmHg) and with anemia(Hb$\leq$13mg/100$m\ell$ in men, Hb$\leq$12mg/100$m\ell$ in women) were 34.6% and 41.9%, respectively. The serum cncentrations of albumin, total protein, triglyceride, total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, and total lipid fell within normal ranges. However, 27.5% of the subjects showed a high serum cholesterol level of over 250mg/100$m\ell$. The concentration of C3 was 81.2mg/100$m\ell$, IgG, 1343mg/100$m\ell$, and IL-2, 0.766mg/$m\ell$. after 2 months of vitamin-mineral supplementation, the levels of blood glucose and total cholesterol were significantly decreased and triglyceride was significantly increased. The vitamin-mineral supplementation had no effect on the mean levels of vitamin A and E, IgG, IL2, and C3. However, the intervention resulted int he improvement of serum vitamin A and E levels when the subject\`s serum levels were low before the supplementation.

Effect of preparation method on Yulmoo kimchi(watery kimchi prepared with Yulmoo, leaf radish) fermentation was investigated by measuring physicochemical, microbiological and sensory properties for 20 days. Yulmoo kimchi was fermented at 4$^{\circ}C$ after keeping at room temperature(27$\pm$0.5$^{\circ}C$) for 8 hours. Four types(A, B, C, D) of Yulmoo kimchi were prepared. Sample A was made without wheat flour paste and red pepper powder and sample B was made with wheat flour paste. Sample C was made with red pepper powder, and sample D was made with wheat flour paste and red pepper powder. pH was slowly lowered and stabled after 10 days in all samples. Total acid content increased in all samples. Reducing sugar content initially increased and decreased thereafter. Especially, reducing sugar content of sample B increased in the early stage of fermentation and maintained initial reducing sugar content after 20 days. Total vitamin C content reduced during fermentation in all samples. Especially initial total vitamin C content of sample D increased more than those of other samples relatiely. Lightness and yellowness showed no difference, but on the other hand redness increased gradually in all samples. The number of lactic acid bactgeria reached maximum value in 10~13 days with the total cell numbers and gradually decreased thereafter in all samples. The number of lactic acid bacteria and total cell number of sample D was much more than those of any other samples. As a result of the sensory evaluation, Yulmoo kimchi showed significant difference in all characteristics. Sample D showed the highest scores in all characteristics before 10 days of fermentation. However, after 10 days sample B showed the highest scores.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of onion on the physicochemical, microbiological and sensory properties of Dongchimi. Dongchimi with levels(0, 5, 10, 20%) of onion was fermented at twodifferent temperatures : Group A was fermented at 4$^{\circ}C$ and group B was fermented at 4$^{\circ}C$ after fermentation at room temperature(27$\pm$0.5$^{\circ}C$) for 24 hours. During the fermentation up to 45 days, total acidity increased while pH decreased gradually. Total acidity of group B was relatively higher than that of group A. The content of reducing sugar was reached the maximum value in 6 days of fermentation in the group A and on 3 days in the group B. Especially, the highest content of reducing sugar was shown on the Dongchimi added with 5% onion in the group A and 20% onion in the group B. Vitamin C was reduced in the early stage of fermentation, and increased gradually after 10 days. However, vitamin C of Dongchimi without onion increased rapidly in the early stage of fermentation and remarkably decreased thereafter. After 20 days, vitamin C was maintained in Dongchimi added with 10% onion of both two groups. The number of lactic acid bacteria was reached the maximum value on 1 day in the Dongchimi without onion and on 3 days in the Dongchimi added 5, 10 and 20% onion of group A, while gropu B was reached on 1 days and then decreased thereafter. As a result of the sensory evaluation, Dongchimi added 5% onion in the group A showed the highest scores in texture and overall acceptability. Whereas, in the group B, Dongchimi added 20% onion was the most preferable one.
