This study presents data on spawning season, weight-length relationships (WLRs) and condition factor of Gadus chalcogrammus inhabiting the middle East Sea, Korea. Monthly changes in the gonadosomatic index (GSI) revealed that the spawning period was from December to March. Overall value of the exponent b, estimated by nonlinear least squares from weight and length data was 2.806, ranging from 2.778 for female fishes to 2.985 for immature group. The b values were similar between spawning and non-spawning, and between female and male fishes, but it was significantly higher for immature than mature fishes. The condition factors were significantly higher for immature than mature groups, and during non-spawning than spawning periods, but it was not significant between male and female fishes.

The purpose of this study is to complish a method of fish glue malting with residual products such as fish head and skin discarded from sea food processing. Using the skins of Alaska pollack and file fish from fillet packers, the optimum conditions of skin glue processing were investigated and physical and chemical properties of the product were also determined. The yields of Alaska pollack, Thelagra calcogramma, skin and file fish, Novodon modestus, skin to the total body weight were $4.6\%\;and\;5.0\%$ respectively. The optimum conditions for a $49.3\%$n yield Alaska pollack skin glue processing were considered the extraction of previously tinted in $0.1\%$ calcium hydroxide solution for 3 hours with the additional water as much as 3 times of sample weight at $70^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours under the controlled pH 5.0. The conditions for file fish skin glue were similar to those of Alaska pollack except the addition of five times of water to the weight of sample skin needed for extraction. The content of crude protein of Alaska pollack and file fish skin glue were $98.0\%\;and\;96.0\%$ respectively. The contents of crude ash and crude lipid were not different from that of chemical grade gelatin. Relative viscosity, melting point, gelation temperature and jelly strength of Alaska pollack skin glue marked 5.84, $21.8^{\circ}C,\;7.1^{\circ}C\;and\;10.0g$ respectively and those of file fish skin glue showed $5.79,\;25.0^{\circ}C,\;7.4^{\circ}C\;and\;11.6g$ respectively.The color and turbidity of Alaska pollack skin glue are slightly superior to those of file fish skin glue. It is supposed that the extract residue of skin glue is valuable for use the animal feeds by the results of amino acid composition. And the ratio of each amino acid content to the total amino acid of Alaska pollack and file fish skin glue is similar to that of chemical grade gelatin.

It was mathematically analyzed at which steps to activate TTI in the cold chain for Alaska pollack, assuming that the performance of a commercial TTI product, and Fresh-check, could not always be optimized for the pollack. Three places were selected for the TTI activation, such as on fishing ship, Busan cooperative fish market, and mart. First, the kinetic and Arrhenius temperature dependent models were experimentally built under isothermal conditions. The color index of TTI and the level of Pseudomonas spp. of pollack were measured at time intervals. Second, the resultant models were used in the mathematical calculations for dynamic temperature conditions included in the cold chain. As a result, the TTI activated at the mart place showed the best agreement between the spoilage time of the pollack and the time for the TTI color to reach its end-point. It was therefore found that it is practically important to optimally select the TTI activation place or time when using a commercial TTI product.

In present paper, we investigated the changes in lipid components of skipjack and Alaska pollack meat by thermal processing at high temperature. TBA values and peroxide values of both fish meats decreased markedly by heat treatment; decreasing range of TBA and peroxide values in skipjack meat was larger than those of Alaska pollack meat. Also carbonyl value of skipjack meat was decreased by thermal processing, contrary, that of Alaska pollack meat was increased. Total lipid(TL) of skipjack and Alaska pollack meat consisted of $61.9\%,\;49.6\%$ non-polar lipid(NL), $38.1\%,\;50.4\%$ polar lipid(PL), respectively. When the samples were heated at the Fo values of 5 or higher, contents of NL were increased, while that of PL were decreased. In fatty acid composition of NL and PL in both fishes, NL revealed higher contents in saturates and monoenes such as 16:0, 18:1, while PL showed higher contents in polyenes such as 20:5, 22:6; percentages of polyenes such as 22:6 especially in both fishes decreased with increasing of Fo values. The remaining ratio of PUFA(20:5+22:6/16:0) of Fo 20 samples in skipjack and Alaska pollack meat were $73\%$ and $65\%$, respectively. However, when the samples were heated at $98^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes, no appreciable changes occured in fatty acid composition of TL, NL and PL in both fish meats examined.

Cryo-grinding process comprising hammer mill-shattering and colloid mill-grinding without refrigerant was applied to sardine, pollack and squid muscle frozen at $-20^{\circ}C,\;-40^{\circ}C\;and\;-80^{\circ}C$, respectively and its characteristics were investigated. Particle size distribution of shattered product was shown larger in the order of squid, sardine and pollack and particle size of shattered product frozen at $-80^{\circ}C$ was shown smaller than those at $-40^{\circ}C$. Image of shattered product depended on freezing temperatures and fish species, suggesting particle size distribution of rheological properties can be dependent on fish species or freezing temperature. Yield of cryo- grinded product was in the range of $52.5\~62.5\%$ and Ca content of sardine or pollack product was $6\~8$ times higher than its fillet. Emulsion capacity of cryogrinded product was not decreased during processing. Therefore, this method is thought to be applicable to fish precessing, and preparation of fish paste or powaer.

Volatile flavor compounds in Alaska pollack sik-hae during fermentation at 5$^{\circ}C$ were analyzed by liquid-liquid continuous extraction (LLCE) and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) methods. Sixty five volatile compounds were detected in Alaska pollack sik-hae during fermentation. These compounds were composed mainly of 11 S-containing compounds, 13 alcohols, 13 acids, 4 aldehydes, 4 ketones, 6 terpenes,4 aromatic compounds and 10 miscellaneous compounds. Among these, 9 S-containing compounds (3-(methylthio)-1-propene, dimethyl disulfide, diallyl sulfide, methylallyl disulfide, methyl-(E) -propenyl disulfide, dimethyl trisulfide, 2 diallyl disulfide isomers and diallyl trisulfide), 2 acids (acetic acid and butanoic acid), 2 ketones (2, 3-butanedione and 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one) and 2 esters (ethyl formate and ethyl acetate) were significantly increased during fermentation (p<0.05), and these compounds were suspected to affect on the odor of Alaska pollack sik-hae.

This study investigated dietary habits and intra- and inter-specific food resource partitioning of co-occurring walleye pollock (Gadus chalcogrammus) and Pacific cod (G. macrocephalus) from the waters off the north-eastern coast of South Korea using stomach contents and stable isotopes (δ¹³C and δ¹⁵N) analyses. Both species are mesopelagic carnivores that consumed mainly benthopelagic crustaceans, but teleosts were also abundant in the diet of Pacific cod. Non-metric multidimensional scaling (nMDS) ordination and permutational multivariate analysis of variance (PERMANOVA) of dietary data revealed significant intra- and inter-specific dietary differences, i.e., food resource partitioning. Nitrogen stable isotope values (δ¹⁵N) were similar between walleye pollock and Pacific cod, but carbon stable isotope values (δ¹³C) were significant different, suggesting different trophic positioning. Canonical analysis of principal coordinate (CAP) ordination plot further demonstrated that differences in the type and range of prey ingested by the two species contributed such an inter-specific difference in the diet compositions. Ontogenetic changes in diet compositions were evident. As walleye pollock, they preyed more upon carid shrimps and cephalopods, but no such trend was observed in the diets of Pacific cod. While stable isotope values indicated that large-sized specimens of both species were significantly enriched in ¹⁵N relative to smaller conspecifics thus supporting these data. Consequently, in this study, both methodologies, i.e., stomach contents and stable isotope analyses, provided evidence of inter- and/or intra-specific dietary segregations and trophic niche partitioning between co-occurring walleye pollock and Pacific cod off eastern Korean waters.

The skipjack and Alaska pollack meat were packed in square No. 3B can, and thermally processed at $121.1^{\cir}C$ so far as to reach Fo values of 5, 10 and 20, respectively. Also the another samples which were heated at $98^{\cir}C$ for 30 minutes were prepared. We have examined the changes of nitrogenous extractives and texture by thermal processing at high temperature in both fish meats. Moisture contents of both fish meats decreased slightly with the increasing of Fo values. When the samples were heated at $98^{\cir}C$ and $121.1^{\cir}C$, pH and VBN contents increased markedly in both fish meats; increasing ratio of pH and VBN contents in skipjack meat was larger than those of Alaska pollack meat. Histamine were detected in concentration of 6.1mg/100g, 0.1mg/100g in raw skipjack and Alaska pollack meat, 8.2mg/100g, 0.1mg/100g in Fo 20 samples of these fish meats, respectively. The contents of total free amino acids in skipjack and Alaska polack meat were 984.8mg/100g, 282.3mg/100g, and these total contents decreased slightly with increasing of Fo values. Little changes were observed in free amino acid composition, but only His, Tau, Ala in skipjack meat and Tau in Alaska pollack meat decreased significantly by heat treatment. Also the degredation of IMP were Proceeded during Preparation and heat treatment of samples, and TMAO changed into TMA almost equivalently. In changes of textures, as compared with heating of 98t for 30 minutes; Fo 5 heat treatment became more softened these fish meats.

The edible films were prepared from the protein of alaska pollack, Theragra chalcogrmma. Effects of plasticizer, cross linker and laminated film on physical properties such as tensile strength (TS), elongation (E) and water vapor permeability (WVP) of films were investigated. In adding various kinds of plasticizers, TS of the films prepared with propylene glycol (PG) was the highest, and followed sorbitol, polyethylene glycol 200 (PEG 200) and glycerol. Elongation of the films prepared with glycerol was the highest, then sorbitol, PEG 200 and PG. WVP of films showed lower in order of PG, sorbitol, glycerol and PEG 200.75 decreased with the increment of plasticizer concentration, but elongation increased, The addition of both PG and PEG 200 effected weakly on elongation, so they were inadequate as plasticizer for the film. Mixtures of glycerol and sorbitol, which showed opposing both TS and elongation in the films, could control the physical properties of the films. With increasing relative humidity, TS decreased, while elongation and equilibrium moisture content increased. By adding the cross linkers such as ascorbic acid, citric acid and succinic acid, TS and m of films increased, while elongation decreased. Ascorbic acid, citric acid, succinic acid were most effective for TS at 0.2, 0.1 and $0.1\%, respectively. Laminated film with alaska pollack protein and corn zein improved TS above two times, reduced WVP about $20\~30\%$, as compared with the Elm from alaska pollack protein. Two films did not show the difference to oxygen permeability, but they showed about tenfold greater oxygen resistance than polyethylene film. Laminated film showed higher b and $\Delta$E value of color difference, lower a and L value than the film from alaska pollack protein.
