Alaska pollack caught in the Northern Pacific Ocean and frozen aboard vessel are skipped to the plant and processed into frozen fillets. In the present paper quality changes during thwaing, refreezing and storage at $-20^{\circ}C$ are discussed. Natural, running-water, vacuum and steam thawing were employed as thawing methods. And contact plate, air blast, immersion in dry ice-alcohol solution freezing and storage at $-5^{\circ}C$ were applied to refreeze the thawed fillets. As quality factors content of drip released, salt-extractable protein, VBN, DNA in the drip and pH were determined. In addition, bacteriological tests were also carried out along with the whole process. In thawing of round material, the vacuum thawing was more effective than any other method, resulting in drip, salt-extractable protein $(N\%)$, VBN and DNA as $4.4\%,\;1.82\%,\;16.21mg\%$ and $13.70\;{\mu}g/ml$, respectively. Storage at $-5^{\circ}C$ as refreezing method yielded lower in drip and DNA content but similar to or slightly higher in both salt-extractable protein and VBN, which might postulate that the quality of the frozen fillet depends not largely on the secondary freezing but on the conditions of thawing and primary freezing. It seemed that most of the bacterial flora in thawed fillet came from skin and viscera of fish, worker's hands, utensils and other processing facilities, since sanitary indicative bacteria were not detected in the frozen flesh of round Alaska pollack. Bacterial quality of fillet varied with thawing methods, vacuum thawing appeared more sanitative compared with other methods as natural, running-water, and steam thawing. Bacterial colonies isolated from the thawed fillet were composed of $73.8\%$ Gram negative rod shape, $4.9\%$ Gram positive rod shape, $18.0\%$ cocci, and $3.3\%$ yeast. Decreasing rate of coliform group of the fillet during the storage at $-20^{\circ}C$ for 30 days was more than $70\%$ and that of plate count was less than of coliform group.

This study investigates the use of $TiO_{2},\;Pd,\;Pt$, and In which greatly improves a sensitivity to trimethylamine gas. The metal-$SnO_{2}$ thick films were prepared by screen-printing method onto $Al_{2}O_{3}$ substrates with platinum electrode. The sensing characteristics were investigated by measuring the electrical resistance of each sensor in a test box as a function of detecting gas concentration. This was then used to detect trimethylamine, dimethylamine, and ammonia vapours within the concentration range of 100-1000ppm. The gas sensing properties of metal-$SnO_{2}$ mixed thick films depended on the content and variety of metal. It was found that sensitivity and selectivity of the films dopped with 1 wt% Pd and 10 wt% $TiO_{2}$ for trimethylamin gas showed the best result at $250^{\circ}C$.

This paper is contented with packet transmission scheduling problem for repeating all-to-all broadcasts in WDM optical passive-star networks in which there are N nodes and k wavelengths. It is assumed that each node has one tunable transmitter and one fixed-tuned receiver, and each transmitter can tune to k different wavelengths. The tuning delay represents the time taken for a transmitter to tune from one wavelength to another and represented as ${\delta}$(>0) in units of packet durations. We define all-to-all broadcast as the one where every node transmits packets to all the other nodes except itself. So, there are in total N(N-1) packets to be transmitted for an all-to-all broadcast. The optimal transmission scheduling is to schedule In such a way that all packets can be transmitted within the minimum time. In this paper, we propose the condition for optimal transmission schedules and present an optimal transmission scheduling algorithm for arbitrary values of N, k, and ${\delta}$ The cycle length of the optimal schedules is $max{[\frac{N}{k}](M-1)$, $k{\delta}+N-1$}.

The triglyceride compositions of peach kernel and apricot kernel oil have been investigated by a combination of high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas liquid chromatography(GLC). The triglycerides of peach kernel and apricot kernel oil were first separated by thin layer chromatography(TLC), and fractionated on the basis of their partition number(PN) by HPLC on a C-18 ${\mu}-Bondapak$ column with methanol-chloroform solvent mixture. Each of these fractionated groups was purely collected and analyzed by GLC according to acyl carbon number(CN) of triglyceride. Also the fatty acid compositions of these triglycerides were determined by GLC. From the consecutive analyses of these three chromatography techniques, the possible triglyceride compositions of peach kernel and apricot kernel oil were combinated into fifteen and thirteen kinds of triglycerides, respectively. The major triglycerides of peach ternel oil were those of $(3{\times}C_{18:1}\;30.9%)$, $(2{\times}C_{18:1},\;C_{18:2},\;21.2%)$, $(C_{18:1},\;2{\times}C_{18:2}\;10.6%)$, $(3{\times}C_{18:2}\;3.8%)$, $(C_{18:0},\;2{\times}C_{18:1},\;1.8%)$, $(C_{16:0},\;C_{18:1},\;C_{18:2},\;1.5%)$, $(C_{18:0},\;C_{18:1},\;C_{18:2},\;1.1%)$ and those of apricot kernel oil were $(3{\times}C_{18:1},\;39.5%)$, $(2{\times}C_{18:1},\;C_{18:2},\;24.5%)$, $(C_{18:0},\;2{\times}C_{18:2},\;14.2%)$, $(3{\times}C_{18:2},\;2.0%)$.

We have veen already reported the distribution of PSP of bivalve mollusca in southern coast of Korea and also analyzed their characteristics. The purpose of this study was to develop detoxification method for PSP infested sea mussel, Mytilus edulis, by rearing methods or processing treatments. There was no significant detoxification effect when the PSP infested sea mussel was reared in a tank with water recirculation system, but the toxicity of sea mussel rapidly decreased during the rearing time in a water flow system with filtered water. The detoxification rate of PSP during the rearing for 5 days in a water flow system tank with $15-17^{\circ}C$ of sea water was $94\%$ in case of high toxic sample with more than $2,600{\mu}g/100g$ and about $40\%$ in case of low toxic sample with less than $100{\mu}g/100g$. The toxicity of PSP extracted from the sample with 0.1N/ HCl solution was about 2-5 times higher than that extracted with distilled water. When sea mussel contained $100-150{\mu}g-PSP$ per 100g of edible meat was boiled for 30 min with tap water, the toxicity was destroyed as the level of PSP undetected by mouse assay. We can suggest that boiling of sea mussel with tap water was one of the most significant detoxification methods, but it was not enough to be safe in case of extremely high intoxicated sea mussel with PSP. For example, the digestive gland of sea mussel contained more than $9593{\mu}g/100g$ was heated in a can with tap water at $116^{\circ}C$ for 65 min. the residual PSP was more than $170{\mu}g$.

Secondary amines are known as one of the precursors of nitrosamines which are potent carcinogenic compounds for human being and animals. In this study, trimethylamine and dimethylamine contents of salted, hot-air dried and sun dried samples of two commercial fishes, mackerel pike and seerfish were analyzed and quantitatively compared at three different temperature conditions. The formation of both secondary amines was more rapid at$10^{\circ}C\;and\;15^{\circ}C\;than\;at\;2^{\circ}C$. Residual amounts of trimethylamine oxide of salted samples were relatively higher than those of the other samples. Trimethylamine contents of hot-air dried mackerel pike and sun dried seerfish were relatively higher than those in the other samples, while those of salted samples were comparatively lower than those of others. Dimethylamine contents of hot-air dried samples were higher than those of the other samples, whereas those of salted samples were comparatively lower than those of the other samples.

In succession to the previous paper, the effect of the addition of food additives, such as glucose, glycine, sucrose and sorbic acid on the histamine formation and histidine decarboxylase activity in mackerel muscle during storage at $25^{\circ}C$ was studied. Additionally, the effect of different rasping condition of mackerel muscle on the histamine formation was also studied. It was estimated that the rasping condition of mackerel muscle also affected to the histamine formation, by showing that much histamine was detected in homogenized muscle than in ground muscle when glucose and sucrose were added. The addition of glycine was inhibitory upon the histamine formation and histidine decarboxylase activity, which, in the muscle added $10\%$ of glycine, the histamine content was below the critical concentration of poisoning for histamine during storage for 5 days at $25^{\circ}C$. The addition of sorbic acid was also inhibited the histamine formation and histidine decarboxylase activity, and the inhibitory effect of $0.2\%$ addition was greater than $0.1\%$ addition.

The present study was directed to investigate the accelerative effects of fermentation of salted anchovy on sea tangle homogenates. With the addition of $8\%$ (w/w) sea tangle homogenates(T), there was an increase of amino-N content in both the muscle and juice of salted anchovy during all fermentation periods. It was only in VBN value that there was exhibited the same characteristics as the control batch. Viable cell count in muscle was increased rapidly after 60 days of fermentation, but in juice the content was maximal after 60 days of fermentation. When $8\%$ (w/w) sea tangle homogenates was added, the pH value in muscle and juice were maintained same degree of control until 80 days of fermentation, but showed increase in pH value of muscle and juice more rapidly than the control system after 80 days of fermentation. Then a large percentage of muscle turned to juice after 100 days of fermentation. The degree of fermentation In salted anchovy, when sea tangle homogenates were added, accelerated more than the control batch. Concerning the factors related to the accelerative effects on fermentation of salted anchovy, there was a continuous increase in amino-N content, and it was a sudden change of viable cell count and pH value at a certain point in the fermentation periods.

The present study was carried out for making clear the organic acids composition of some shellfishes and their boiled-dried products. Three species of shellfish such as top shell, hard clam and abalone were chosen as the experimental samples and analysed for their nonvolatile organic acids composition by gas liquid chromatography (GLC). Eight kinds of nonvolatile organic acid were identified in raw and boiled-dried top shell, major ones were succinic, malic and pyroglutamic acid. Out of nine kinds of nonvolatile acid was determined in raw and boiled-dried of hard clam, abundant ones were succinic, lactic and malic acid, And seven kinds of nonvolatile organic acid were detected in boiled-dried abalone while eight kinds in raw sample, abundant ones were succinic, lactic and pyroglutamic acid, respectively. In all samples, the total amount of nonvolatile organic acid was the most abundant in hard clam while the least in abalone, and the content of succinic acid was appeared as the most abundant one. In dried samples, the total amount of the nonvolatile organic acid was determined to be about half-decrease after the boiled-dried treatment of the raw samples, of which abalone showed the highest decreasing을 rate whereas hard clam was the lowest. In general, the decreasing rate of each acid was the higher in fumaric, malic and citric acid than in maleic, oxalic and succinic acid.
