Physicochemical changes were investigated during repeated freezing and thawing processes using fish meat paste of alaska pollack (Theragra chalcogramma). During repeated thawing process, the solubility of myofibrillar protein, $Ca^{++}-ATPase$ activity, water holding capacity (WHC), electrophoretic patterns and rheological properties were evaluated at various thawing temperatures. Solubility of myofibrillar protein and $Ca^{++}-ATPase$ activity were decreased with increasing thawing temperatures. Thawing temperatures and the frequency of freezing and thawing processes did not affect WHC significantly. Upon repeated freezing and thawing cycles, electrophoretic patterns showed that only the amount of myosin heavy chain was decreased, whereas the amount of actin remained constant. Young's modulus for viscoelasticity of fish meat pastes increased with increasing thawing temperatures and the value showed maximum at third cycle and decreased thereafter.

The waste rates of 98 food items after pre-preparation were surveyed to provide database for good menu planning. The waste rates turned out 0-64.27% in vegetables, 6.38-7.03% in potatoes, 6.25-68.75% in fishes and shellfishes, 16.61% in eggs, and 16.00-56.84% in fruits. Foods with high waste rates were vegetables, fishes and shellfishes. Survey results were compared with other food composition tables. Foods with 30% higher waste rate than other food composition tables were squash leaf, pacific ocean perch, sweet potato stalk, water cress, green peas, alaska pollack, bluefin tuna, beka squid, crown daisy, dodok, amaranth, beef ribs. Food which waste rates turned out to be decreased by about 30% in this study were corb shell, pomfret, sea mussel, warty sea squirt. For the menu planning, reasonaly exact waste rates for each food items are essential. Since survey results show significant deviations, there should be more studies for exact waste rates for each food.

In the previous work(Kim et al, 1973), the quality of sun-dried Alaska pollack, Theragra chalch-ogramma, was discussed in the aspect of non-enzymatic discoloration as a function of relative humidity during storage at room temperature($20^{\circ}C$). In this paper, sun-dried squid, Ommastrephes steam pacificus was investigated at the same aspect mentioned above. Fresh squid from the whole sale market was dressed, filleted, dried for 48 hours in the open air and finally stored in the humidistat chamber. Lipid oxidation ana development of non-enzymatic browning were tested by the same methods described in the previous paper. The TBA value showed a maximum peak on 30 day storage, hereafter tended to decrease gradually. The rate of browning, however, in water soluble fraction as well as in chloroform-methanol fraction was lower at 0.34 to 0.45 water activity than at any other case, and propagation of lipid oxidation was also diminished at the above level of water activity. From the results, it is recognized that storage at Aw=0.34 to 0.45 provides higher quality stability for sun-dried squid.

This study was conducted to investigate chemical properties, quality stability and utilization of approved sardine surimi(ASS) which is developed our laboratory. The product yield of the ASS was about 3 times higher than that of usual sardine surimi(SS). The proper addition concentration of sodium bicarbonate was 0.1% for the neutralization of the ASS. The content of salt soluble protein nitrogen in the ASS was about the half of that in the SS, while the content of water soluble protein nitrogen was 2.4 times higher in ASS. The total amount of free amino acids in the ASS was about 11 times higher than that of the SS. Predominant free amino acids in the ASS were histidine, taurine, glutamic acid and alanine, and those four amino acids occupied 94% of total amount of free amino acids. During cold storage at 21oC for 6 months, the quality of ASS was more stable than that of SS in judging from changes of water soluble and salt soluble protein nitrogen, AV and POV. Quality of fish burger, fish sausage and fried fish paste processed in accordance with commercial processing preparation using the ASS or SS exclusively and mixtures which other white meat fish surimi(alaska pollack, hair tail and sole) were proportionallly added to each of two types of sardine meat were evaluated. In case of fish burger, the product processed from the ASS only were superior.

To compare the antioxidative activities of fish skin and bovine skin gelatin hydrolysate, gelatin hydrolysates from Alaska pollack and bovine skin were prepared by various enzymatic hydrolysis methods (1st step, Alcalase; 2nd step, pronase E; 3rd step, collagenase) using a continuous three-step membrane reactor. The molecular weight distributions of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd step hydrolysates were 7∼10 kDa, 2∼5 kDa and 0.7∼0.9 kDa, respectively. The antioxidative activity of fish skin gelatin hydrolysate was stronger than that of bovine skin gelatin hydrolysate, and in particular, both of 2nd step hydrolysates showed more antioxidative activity than hydrolysates of any other step. The optimum antioxidative activity concentration of the 2nd step hydeolysates of fish and boving skin were 1% (w/w) in a linoleic acid water-alcohol emulsion. In cultured cells exposed to t-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BHP), the 2nd step hydrolysate of fish skin gelatin delayed cell death most. These results suggest that the antioxidative activity of fish skin gelatin hydrolysate is higher than that of bovine skin gelatin hydrolysate because of their different amino acid contents.

Mackerel (Scomber japonicus) often causes severe allergic reactions in sensitive people. Food containing undeclared mackerel may pose a risk to such people. The major allergenic protein in fish such as mackerel, codfish, and Alaska pollack has been found to be parvalbumin. In this study, we developed a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method to detect mackerel DNA using primers corresponding to the parvalbumin gene. We cloned and sequenced 1.5 kb of parvalbumin gene by PCR using mackerel genomic DNA as a template. Nucleotide sequence analysis of genomic parvalbumin gene, composed of 4 exons and 3 introns, allowed the selection of two pairs of oligonucleotide primers specific for mackerel. These primers successfully enabled PCR amplification of specific regions of genomic parvalbumin DNA from mackerel, but no amplification from 8 other fish samples, surimi, and 6 boiled fish pastes. The sensitivity of this method was sufficient to detect 5 ng of purified mackerel DNA mixed with 50 ng of surimi DNA. This rapid and specific method for the detection of allergenic mackerel would be beneficial in reducing food allergy caused by the ingestion of hidden allergen in processed food.

There is a limitation to estimate vitamin $B_{12}$ intake due to a lack of data on vitamin $B_{12}$ content in many Korean foods. In this study, vitamin $B_{12}$ content was determined in some seaweeds, fish, and shellfish and their product that are consumed in Korea using a modified microbioassay with Lactobacillus delbruecki ATCC 7830. Dried laver and dried seasoned and toasted laver contained very high levels of vitamin $B_{12}$ (66.8 and $55.2-71.3\;{\mu}g$/100 g, respectively. Sea lettuce and seaweed fulvescene also contained high vitamin $B_{12}$ content of 5.47-9.41 and $6.46-7.20\;{\mu}g$/100 g, respectively, whereas sea mustard and sea tangle contained low levels of vitamin $B_{12}$; vitamin $B_{12}$ was not detected in seaweed fusifome. Pacific saury, trout, sea-bass, or squid contained 12.01, 2.00, 0.49 and $2.33\;{\mu}g$ vitamin $B_{12}$/100 g, respectively. Ochellatus octopus, and naked sand lance contained 0.72-1.43 and $3.68\;{\mu}g$ vitamin $B_{12}$/100 g, respectively. Dried Alaska pollack con-tained $0.19-2.64\;{\mu}g$ vitamin $B_{12}$/100 g. Shellfish such as little neck clam and small ark shellfish contained high levels of vitamin $B_{12}$ of $30.5-40.5\;{\mu}g$/100 g, and mussel and abalone contained 17.71 and $7.82\;{\mu}g$/100 g, respectively. Of unique Korean traditional fermented seafood products, salt-fermented products of squid ($2.91\;{\mu}g$/100 g), clams ($34.31\;{\mu}g$/100 g), Ala-ska pollack roe ($9.98-12.02\;{\mu}g$/100 g), hairtail guts ($4.58\;{\mu}g$/100 g) or small shrimp ($0.58-1.55\;{\mu}g$/100 g), and fish sauce from anchovies ($1.52-1.78\;{\mu}g$/100 mL), sand eel ($0.22-0.24\;{\mu}g$/100 mL) or small shrimp ($0.19-0.78\;{\mu}g$/100 mL) were analyzed. A few commercial brands of flying fish roe ($0.73-1.73\;{\mu}g$/100 g), canned tuna ($0.40\;{\mu}g$/100 g), and fried fish paste ($0.25-0.69\;{\mu}g$/100 g) were also analyzed. In conclusion, vitamin $B_{12}$ content in these foods, chosen considering the Korean food culture, should contribute to improve the present vitamin $B_{12}$ food database. It may be helpful to estimate vitamin $B_{12}$ intake more correctly than before, and provide additional information for dietary education related to vitamin $B_{12}$ and meal management.

Peptides separated from fish paste washing liquid of an Alaska pollak (Theragria chalcogramma) were purified and characterized. The fish paste washing liquid (supernatant) was separated by centrifugation of fish paste homogenate. The fish paste washing liquid of $0.5\%$ concentration was hydrolyzed for 24 hour at $50^{\circ}C$ by immobilized protease in bioreactor and decomposing liquid of protein having $50\%$ decomposing rate (OPA method) was obtained. The crude peptide fractions were obtained from this liquid by Dowex 50w $(H^+)$ column chromatograpy. Purified peptides (SP-fraction peptides) were fractionated by using SP-Sepadex C-25 $(H^+)$ column chromatography. Molecular weights and amino acid compositions of these peptides were estimated by Sephadex G-50 column chromatography and HPLC, respectively. when the washed peptides was eluated with $0.6\~0.9\%\;and\;1.2\~2.0\%$ of NaCl, peptides composed of weakly basic amino acids and strongly basic amino acid were respectively eluted. Molecular weights of each peptide fractions showed the broad distribution from 1,000 Da to 3,000 Da in the order of SP-4>SP-3>SP-2>SP-1. Peptides contained a large quantity of glycine, arginine, glutamic acid, and alanine in the washed peptide and its SP-tractions, respectively.

This article's aim is to review the jurisprudence which has emerged pursuant to the international dispute settlement provisions and to provide a provisional expectation as to the future of international dispute settlement under "UNCLOS". Globally, marine fisheries play an important role in ocean biodiversity and the food security of millions of people, providing a vital source of high-quality dietary protein and supporting individuals' livelihoods and income. In the 1982 Convention, the establishment of co-operative mechanisms for effective monitoring, control, surveillance and enforcement, decision-making procedures facilitating the adoption of such measures of conservation and management, and the promotion of the peaceful settlement of disputes are called for. In this study, 'Northeast Asian Sea' means that the Yellow/East China Sea, the East Sea, the Ohotsk Sea, the Kamchaka Sea, the Alaska Sea, and the Bering Sea surrounded by Korea, China, Japan, Russia, U.S.A. and Canada including their EEZs. There are several bilateral fisheries agreements existing in Northeast Asian area, the Fisheries Agreement between Republic Korea and Japan, between Republic of Korea and China, between China and Japan, between Republic Korea and U.S.A., between Republic Korea and Russia, between Russia and Japan, And there are several regional fisheries organizations existing in Northeast Asian area, for example NPAFC(Convention for the Conservation of Anadromous Stocks in the North Pacific Ocean), CBSPC (Convention on the Central Bering Sea Pollack Conservation), PICES(North Pacific Marine Science Organization), NPFC(North Pacific Fishery Commi-ssion) etc. It analyzed the proliferation of bilateral treaties and multilateral treaties due to the adoption of the EEZ in Northeast Asia reviewed the strengthening of management rights on the high seas marine living resources and marine environment preservation of regional fisheries organizations. In view of the changes in the international fisheries mechanism this paper suggested the future direction of the country in overseas fisheries. We concluded as follows. We shall apply bilateral treaties first, regional fisheries organizations' treaties secondly, and provisions under "UNCLOS" for dispute settlement last.

The several sacrificial rites foods in east coast areas Kyungpook province, Pohang, Youngduk, and Uljin, were surveyed. For the anniversary menorial service, the food items in these reas were mainly rice(Bab'), soup(Guk'), stew(Tang'), fruits, neats and fishes, alcohol which are the typical food items for any other area in Korea. In this east coast area, the seaweed was used more often than in inner land area for this rite food. Four kinds of rice cake(Ddeok' or Pyun') were surveyed for this rite. For the baked food item(Geuk'), the fish squid and the Alaska pollack were used frequently for Geuk'. For the fruits dishes, 3 items were the basic. Tang' which was made with the various fishes, were used very frequently. For the religious memorial service for god to guard the household, the displayed food items were different from depending on the type of the god to guard the household, however, the general display of the food items was almost the same as in land area. For the winter sacrificial rite, the boiled rice(97%) and Bakpyun' was used mostly for the Ddeok'. For the Guk', bean sprout was used mostly, however, the seaweed soup was also used(7%). The fish Tang' was the most used one(35%). For young-deung-je', which implied th safe guard of the household, most of the food items are similar to those of the normal sacrificial rite, however, the fishes which were not fishy were used. The housekeeper arranged the rite to catch a large amount of the fishes and to hope the wellbeing of the household, Poong-yer-je is so called as Byul-sin-gud'(a practice of an exorciser). The food items for this Poong-yer-je' were almost similar to those of the winter sacrificial rite, however, Geulpyun' was mostly used for the Pyun'. In addition that, the red-bean Si-ruddock', Baekpyun', and Yung-ddock'(a dragon cake) were used for this rite, At the end of the sacrificial rite, Yong-ddock' was served to the dragon king which was believed in sea.
