저염분에 따른 양식생물의 피해를 줄이기 위한 조기경보 방안으로 염분에 따른 굴(Crassostrea gigas) 패각운동 특성을 홀 소자를 이용하여 측정하는 생물모니터링시스템의 적용 가능성을 조사하였다. 염분농도 27 psu에서 굴의 패각운동은 평균 10-15 mm 정도의 개각상태를 유지하다가, 비교적 빠른 폐각상태를 지시하는 큰 파형이 보였으며, 다시 개각상태로 돌아가나, 그 속도는 폐각상태로 진행되는 속도보다 느리게 나타났다. 20 psu까지 저염분의 농도에서는 27 psu의 패각 운동과 큰 변화가 없었다. 하지만 17 psu 이하의 염분농도부터 이상 패각운동이 지시되었으며, 10 psu에서는 패각운동이 없이 폐각상태를 유지하였다. 이와 같은 생물모니터링시스템을 패류 양식에 활용하여 해양환경의 이상변동을 신속히 감지할 수 있다면, 어업피해를 감소시킬 활동으로 연결될 것으로 기대된다.

Oysters Crassostrea gigas are a globally popular shellfish for human consumption. As filter-feeding bivalve mollusks, oysters may harbor many microorganisms and chemicals that could pose potential human health risks. The objective of this study was to investigate the suitability of cultured oysters for raw consumption or use in seafood products by measuring concentrations of harmful microorganisms and chemicals in their flesh. Microbial concentrations in cultured oysters were found to be: $1.0{\times}10^2-6.0{\times}10^4CFU/g$ (viable cell counts), not detected $(ND)-5.4{\times}10^3CFU/g$ (coliform bacteria), $ND-1.3{\times}10^2CFU/g$ (E. coli), and $ND-4.6{\times}10^3CFU/g$ (Vibrio parahaemolyticus). Other pathogenic bacteria, including Enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC), Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, and Salmonella spp., were not detected in any samples. Heavy metal concentrations of cultured oysters were ND-0.239 mg/kg (total mercury), ND-1.091 mg/kg (lead), ND-0.968 mg/kg (cadmium). The concentrations of benzo(a)pyrene ranged from $0.280-0.880{\mu}g/kg$. Paralytic shellfish poison ranged from ND-0.58 mg/kg, while diarrhetic shellfish poison was not detected. No radioactivity was detected. These results suggest that oysters intended for raw consumption or use in seafood products should be subjected to chemical and biological controls.

The unwanted artificial oil-spill has severely contaminated the coastal environment in the world. Level of contamination has so far been monitered by various indicator species including mussel, oysters, flounder, and cockle. In this study, we decided to use the oyster as a model organism to observe the morphological changes being exposed to the artificial oil-spill in the coastal areas in Taean, Korea. The oysters were collected from four local sites (Sindu-ri, Uiwang-ri, Jonghyeon-dong, Ansan and Uihang-ri) exposed to various levels of pollution after an oil spill in Taean. Microscopic analysis of the hepatopancreatic microstructure in the digestive gland from the collected oysters show that the swelling, whorl, and destruction phenomenon of the nuclear membrane, a well-known microstructure induced by heavy metal exposure, was observed. Nuclear body (Nb), another typical characteristic of contamination or infection were also observed in some samples. Necrosis was observed in tissue samples collected from the area with a high degree of oil pollution. In addition, parasite-like particles (virus, perkinsus) were observed in most samples. Taken together, these results suggest that oil contamination in the oyster habitats influences the cytopathological changes in Crassostrea gigas.

To develop a value-added product from individually quick-frozen oysters Crassostrea gigas (IQFO), we prepared a retort pouched oyster soup (RPOS) from IQFOs and characterized its processing conditions and quality metrics. We found that the most appropriate manufacturing process for the RPOS consisted of half-thawing and washing raw IQF oysters, blanching, adding them to the retort pouch along with other ingredients (base soup stock, IQF oyster extract, radish, bean sprouts, garlic, and red pepper), sealing, retort sterilization ($120^{\circ}$, F0-value 10 min.), cooling, and packaging inspection. The moisture, crude protein, pH and salinity of the RPOS were 91.0%, 2.8%, 6.20 and 0.9%, respectively. The total amino acid content of the RPOS was 2,163.8 mg/100 g, and the main amino acids were glutamic acid, aspartic acid, leucine, proline, lysine and arginine. The primary inorganic ions were Na, K, S and Zn. In taste compounds, total free amino acid content was 313.4 mg/100 g, and the main free amino acids were glutamic acid, taurine, proline, hydroxyproline, aspartic acid, glycine, alanine, valine, lysine and arginine. This RPOS has good storage stability and organoleptic qualities compared with commercial retort pouched shellfish soup, and is suitable for commercialization as a value-added instant seafood soup.

조개류 유생의 동해방지제 독성에 대한 내성을 평가하기 위해 진주조개, Pinctada fucata martensii와 참굴, Crassostrea gigas의 담륜자를 4종류의 동해방지제에 침지하여 생존율을 조사하였다. 실험에 사용된 동해방지제는 각각 0.01$\~$2.0 M의 DMSO, ethylene glycol, glycerol 과 1,2-propanediol이었으며, 침지시간은 5$\~$20분으로 설정하였다. 모든 동해방지제에 진주조개와 참굴 담륜자를 침지하였을 때, 농도가 낮을수록 침지시간이 짧을수록 생존율이 높아지는 경향을 보였으며, 동해방지제의 종류에 따라 담륜자의 생존율이 다르게 나타났다. DMSO와 ethylene glycol에서는 참굴 담륜자의 생존율이, glycerol과 1,2-propanediol에서는 진주조개 담륜자의 생존율이 상대적으로 높게 나타났다. 그러나 참굴에서는 4종류의 동해방지제에 0.2 M sucrose를 첨가하였을 때 생존율이 유의하게 높아졌다.

This study was conducted to investigate the sensory and nutritional properties of oyster Crassostrea gigas gratin with cream sauce (OG-CS) and to compare with commercial seafood gratin with cheese (control). The proximate composition (%, w/w) of OG-CS was 61.8 of moisture, 8.5 of protein, 16.1 of lipid, 1.2 of ash, 12.4 of carbohydrate, of which the moisture was lower and protein, lipid, ash, and carbohydrate values were higher than those of the control. Based on the results of sensory evaluation by panel members, OG-CS was superior to the control for all parameters, including taste, flavor, texture, nutrition, and overall acceptance. The total amino acid content of OG-CS (7.33 g/100 g) was higher than that of the control (5.20 g/100 g). The major amino acids of OG-CS were glutamic acid (18.8%), proline (9.8%), and leucine (8.2%). The mineral levels of OG-CS were 134.5 mg/100 g for calcium, 164.9 mg/100 g for potassium, 0.8 mg/100 g for iron, and 4.5 mg/100 g for zinc, which were all higher than those of the control. The major fatty acids of OG-CS were 12:0 (28.2%), 16:0 (24.9%), and 14:0 (13.6%), which were the same as those in the control.

In this study, we aimed to optimize the blending conditions of sunflower oil (A), water (B), and oriental sauce (C) for canned smoked oysters Crassostrea gigas in oriental sauce (SOO). Using response surface methodology (RSM), we found that the optimal independent variables [X₁, A/(B+C); X₂, B/C] based on the salinity (Y₁) amino acid nitrogen content (Y₂), and overall acceptance (Y₃) of high-quality SOO were 48.7% (w/w) for sunflower oil, 25.5% (w/w) for water, and 25.8% (w/w) for oriental sauce. Under optimal conditions, the experimental values of Y₁, Y₂, and Y₃ were 1.68±0.4 g/100 g, 155.4±2.4 mg/100 g, 6.2±0.23 score, respectively, which were not significantly different from the predicted values (P<0.05). The SOO prepared under optimal conditions had a higher overall acceptance than commercial canned smoked oysters. These results suggest that developing canned smoked oysters in oriental sauce can be industrialized, and the product is predicted to be competitive in the global market.

This study was performed to screen the antimicrobial activities of the extract from the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas against skin pathogens and to purify the relevant antibacterial peptide. The acidified extract showed potent antibacterial activities against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria but showed no activity against Candida albicans and no significant cell toxicity. Among acne-causing pathogens, the acidified extract showed potent antibacterial activity only against Staphylococcus aureus, and its antibacterial activity was completely abolished by treatment with trypsin or chymotrypsin, and was inhibited by salt treatment. The acidified extract showed strong DNA-binding ability but did not show bacterial membrane permeabilizing ability. Based on antimicrobial activity screening and cytotoxic effects, a novel antibacterial peptide was purified from the acidified gill extract using solid-phase extraction, cation-exchange, and reversed-phase HPLC. The resulting peptide had a molecular weight of 4800.8 Da and showed partial sequence homology with the carbonic anhydrase 4 (CA4) protein in the hard-shelled mussel. Overall, we purified a novel antibacterial peptide, named cgCAFLP, which is related to carbonic anhydrase 4 (CA4) protein, against skin pathogens. Our results suggest that the Pacific oyster extract could be used as an additive to control some acne-related skin pathogens (S. aureus).

Triploids have several potential advantages over diploids in aquaculture, drawing an elevated commercial reaction into the realistic application of the techniques despite we are still in the early stage of triploid industry for the Pacific oysters Crassostrea gigas. We traced the growth performance of the triploid C. gigas for over a year from hatchery spats, which was created by manipulations of chemicals (Cytochalasin B, CB or 6-Dimethylaminopurine, 6-DMAP). The growth was clearly marked by an initial longer dormancy and following a great magnitude of heterogeneity. The dormancy was almost 9 to 10-month long or even longer and was considered as a downside of the creation. The heterogeneity was magnified by appearance of extraordinarily growing oysters in part during summer season, which could be a representative upside of the triploids. Overall, however, the results were not as positive as were expected. The longer dormancy and following heterogeneity observed in our practice could be marked as an additional negative sign of the chemical use. The present study, thus, might be highly indicative in the introduction of biological cross between tetraploid and diploid to produce natural triploid embryos.
