The effect of ripening temperature, pH and salinity on the formation of N-nitrosamine (NA) during Kimchi fermentation and in vitro was studied, respectively. During Kimchi fermentation for six weeks at cold storage temperature (4℃) and room temperature (16 ±2℃), the contents of nitrite and dimethylamine (DMA) showed variation at room temperature but no variation at cold storage temperature. The maximum generation of nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) resulted low content (2.69 ug/kg) at cold storage temperature but started to increase after one week fermentation and reached to the 18-fold higher generation (49.6 ug/kg) at room temperature. During Kimchi fermentation, no correlation was observed between the variation of nitrite and DMA content and the generation of NDMA. However, pH showed effective relation to NDMA generation such as the highest NDMA generation was obtained at lowest pH 4. During in vitro test, higher temperature and lower pH resulted more NDMA generation and generation amount was affected more by pH. Also, the salinity of Kimchi provided inhibitory effects on the formation of NDMA. NDMA was produced 5.86 ug/kg at normal salinity (2.5%) but 90.9 ug/kg at lower salinity (15%) after three week. The higher salinity showed lower formation of NDMA in vitro test, too.
