This study was carried out to provide basic data on the anion, element, chromatic and antioxidant activities of commercial dried lavers cultivated from Seocheon, Wando, Goheung and Busan in Korea. The highest concentrations of several anions (Cl-, NO3-, SO42-, and PO43- per 100 g of dried laver) were 412.00 mg in Wando, 545.90 mg in Goheung, 297.35 mg in Seocheon, and 79.70 mg in Wando, respectively. The highest concentrations of N, C, and S were 6.40%, 41.36%, and 0.98%, respectively, in dried laver cultivated from Wando. Hunter''s color values were significantly high in the order of Seocheon
