To determine the salinity of packaged Kimchi, bulk Kimchi and other common foods, we collected samples of foods from the Gyeonggi province area in October 2006 and determined the salinity levels in one serving portion. The average salinity of all foods was 0.226${\pm}$0.212%. The average salinity of all Kimchi samples was 0.401${\pm}$0.260. The average salinities of soups, stews, protein containing side dishes, vegetable side dishes and drinks were 0.153${\pm}$0.085%, 0.691${\pm}$0.213%, 0.151${\pm}$0.102%, 0.209${\pm}$0.121% and 0.080${\pm}$0.016%, respectively. The average salt intake of one serving of Kimchi was 0.125${\pm}$0.041 g, while the average salt intakes of one serving of the soups, stews, protein containing side dishes, vegetable side dishes and drinks were 0.306${\pm}$0.170 g, 1.382${\pm}$0.426 g, 0.094${\pm}$0.061 g, 0.146${\pm}$0.089 g, and 0.159${\pm}$0.152 g, respectively. The salinity of packaged Kimchi was significantly higher than the salinity of the bulk Kimchi (p < 0.01). In addition, the salinity of the liquid and solid stem portions of the packaged Kimchi was significantly higher than the salinity of the same sized portions of the bulk Kimehi (p<0.01). Furthermore, the salinity in the liquid and solid stern portions of the packaged mustard leaf Kimchi were significantly higher than the salinities of other types of Kimchi (p < 0.0001). The salinity of all Kimchi is higher than that of soup, protein containing side dishes, vegetable side dishes or drinks, but the salt content of one serving of Kimchi is lower than those of the soups or stews or vegetable side dishes or drinks (because one serving size of Kimchi is usually smaller than that of the other foods).

A feeding experiment was conducted on rats to investigate the inhibitive effects of baik-kimchi against the toxicity of Amaranth (Am, Food Red No.2) on growth, fecal weights and bulk, and the digestibility of protein and lipid. The body weight of the Am diet group (5% Amaranth) remained at the lowest level of all diet groups, because of diarrhea symptoms throughout the feeding period, 229.8 g of total body weight or 79.4% of the basal diet group (289.4 g). However, in the baik-kimchi diet group (10% baik-kimchi powder+5% Amaranth) no diarrhea symptoms were evident and total body weight remained at a similar level (280.3 g) to the basal diet group. It therefore appears that baik-kimchi offers an inhibitive effect against the toxicity of Am. In the baik-kimchi diet group, the total fecal weight (173.99 g/3 weeks) was 15 times that of the basal diet group (11.13 g/3 weeks) suggesting that baik-kimchi has the effect of increasing fecal bulk. The large intestine and the cecum of the baik-kimchi diet group were significantly (p<0.05) heavier than those of the Am diet group. The digestibility of protein (50.26%) and lipid (58.37%) in the Am diet group was very low in comparison with these in the baik-kimchi diet group (87.30% and 92.12%, respectively). This result indicates that the low digestibility of these nutrients in the Am diet group was directly responsible for the decrease of weight. Consequently, it is demonstrated that baik-kimchi can inhibit the effects of the toxicity of Am in rats.

This study evaluated the effect of lignin biochar on Kimchi cabbage cultivation in an upland field. Each of the inorganic fertilizers (IF, applied at 32-7.8-19.8 kg/10a=N-P-K), lignin biochar (LBC, applied at 1,000 kg/10a), improved LBC (LBC+N, applied at 1,000 kg/10a), and LBC+IF treatments areas were separated by a control (Cn) treatment area. The fresh weight of Kimchi cabbage increased in the order LBC+N > IF > LBC+IF > Cn > LBC treatments, and the length and width of the leaf were ranged from 20.8-25.7 and 13.7-15.8 cm/plant in all treatments. After Kimchi cabbage harvesting in the LBC+N treatment, soil quality improved bulk density, pH, OM, TN, and Av-P₂O₅ than those other treatments. In addition, the total N₂O flux in LBC+N LBC+N was lower than in IF treatments. Therefore, improved lignin biochar application effectively improves Kimchi cabbage cultivation and can benefit the agricultural environment.

The Umsikbup is a book of Korean woman's life in the Yi-dynasty which published in middle of nineteenth century by unknown author. I have studied the food habits of the Yi-dynasty that wrote in umsikbup as followings ; The stape foods are Bab (boiled cooked rice) 1, Myons (noodles) 4 and Mandu 5 kinds. The side dishes are Guk (soup) 3, Sinsollo 1, Jim 9, Jijim 1, Nooruemi 6, Sun 2, Po 3, Muchim 1, Jabans 3, Jockpyuns 2, Pyunyuk 1, Chae 2, and Kimchi 1 kinds. Thare are D'ock 22, Kwajung 46, Beverages 9 and alcohol are 4 kinds. There are many kinds of Dasikk of the Kwajung in the Umsikbup than no other cooking books. The seasonings are soybean sauce 5, honey 6, oil 4 and sesame seeds 3, ect. There are the description of food types in the seasonal variation and also there are the wisdom of life and avoiding food ; toxic meats, fishes, vegetables and fruits in the taboo food. There are most of Kwajung in the Chanhap (food packed in nest of boxes) in addition to beverages, D'ock, Mandu, decoration methods in the seasonal variation. There are many food making terms which are 163 kinds of prepared cooking term 27 kinds of cutting terms and 17 kinds of boiling terms. And 18 kinds of expression of taste can be seen in this book. There are 24 kinds of table were and cooking kitchen utensils, but many of them came to usefulness 12 kinds of measuring units are very non-scientific because that is not by weight but by bulk or volume.

The cultivation area for domestic cabbage increased by 26.3% from 10,968 ha in 2019 to 13,854 ha in 2020, and among leafy vegetables, the cabbage cultivation area was 62%, and production was 78.9%. Demand for field crop production of cabbage, which has a relatively high-income level compared to rice farming, is increasing, and mechanization of the field operation is urgently needed due to the insufficient development of related farming machinery. In this study, a prototype fabrication and performance test of a tractor-attached cabbage collector was carried out. The transport section was divided into two parts, one for the feeding and transportation and the other for the screening and packaging to selectively collect cabbages in bulk bags or boxes. The length of the primary collecting conveyor was designed to meet the field conditions of the Korean cabbage cultivation standards so that six cultivation rows could be worked simultaneously. Power was controlled by a hydraulic transmission line of the tractor and was easily mounted onto the 3-point hitch links behind the tractor. When the performance was evaluated, the transfer rate, loss rate, damage rate, and work performance were 100, 0, 1.2%, and 1.9 h·10 a^-1. Final improvement and commercialization of the prototype would considerably contribute to the mechanization of harvesting cabbage, the main ingredient of Kimchi.
