CKC, common kimchi cabbage; GKC, gold kimchi cabbage; RKC, red kimchi cabbage.
T, tocopherol.
T3, tocotrienol.
Vitamin E activity is expressed as mg α-tocopherol equivalent (α−TE)/100 g. α−TE = (α−T × 1.0) + (β−T × 0.5) + (γ−T × 0.1) + (δ−T × 0.01) + (α−T3× 0.3) + (β−T3× 0.05).
Means with different superscript small letters in the same column for the different type kimchi cabbages are significantly different at p<0.05.
