This study investigated changes in the quality of fermented red snow crab Chionoecetes japonicus sauce with or without Aspergillus kawachii koji and added salt. Samples were divided into four groups depending on whether koji was added and the amount of salt: RC15, 15% added salt, no koji; RC20, 20% added salt, no koji; RK15, 15% salt plus 10% koji; and RK20, 20% salt plus 10% koji. The samples were fermented at 20±2℃ for 4 months. During the fermentation period, the moisture contents of the four types of sauce decreased while the crude ash and protein contents increased. The pH of the RK groups decreased and was lower than in the RC groups. The acidity of the RK groups increased and was higher than in the RC groups. Both the total nitrogen (TN) and amino nitrogen (AN) levels increased continuously and were higher in the RK groups than in the RC groups. The volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) content increased rapidly and was higher in the RC groups than in the RK groups. The color did not differ significantly among the four groups. The viable cell counts in the four groups increased and no coliforms were detected. The total free amino acid and glutamic acid contents were highest in the RK15 group and the main amino acids in RK15 were aspartic acid, glutamic acid, alanine, leucine, phenylalanine, and lysine. Overall acceptance was significantly higher for the RK groups than the RC groups and RK15 ranked highest among the four sauces. These results suggest that Aspergillus kawachii koji is beneficial for processing fish sauce made using red snow crab.

Physicochemical and sensory properties of Kakdugi prepared with fermented northern sand lance sauce(Kakdugi-N) were compared with those of fermented anchovy sauce(Kakdugi-A) or shrimp(Kakdugi-S) through pH, acidity, reducing sugar content, color, microbial counts, TPA and sensory evaluation. The salt concentrations were similar among the treatments ranging 1.9 to 2.3%. Greater decrease in pH and reducing sugar content, and greater increase in acidity were observed in Kakdugi prepared with three kinds of fermented fish sauce than control. The greatest decrease in pH and reducing sugar content but the highest increase in acidity and lactobacilli counts were observed in Kakdugi-S, followed by Kakdugi-N and Kakdugi-A. Fermentation pattern of Kakdugi-N was similar to that of Kakdugi-A. The Hunter color L, a and b values increased gradually until day 11 and then decreased, and the a and b values of Kakdugi-N were similar to those of Kakdugi-A. The hardness and fracturability of Kakdugi determined by texture analyser, decreased during fermentation. Sensory evaluation showed that the score of overall acceptability was the highest in Kakdugi-S, followed by Kakdugi-N and Kakdugi-A.

This study was conducted to enhance the protein quality of wheat flour extrudates with the addition of fish sauce by-products and dried biji. The experimental design was used to determine the optimum ratio of each ingredient. The compositional and functional properties of test extrudate were measured, and these values were applied to the mathematical models. A canonical form and trace plot showed that the influence of each ingredient on the mixture final product. Protein content of extrudate was increased by the addition of the dried biji, and bending failure stress of extrudate became hardened due to interaction effects between dried biji and pacific sand lance sauce by-product. Also, the addition of dried biji decreased ash and salt contents. An optimum formulation was obtained as 15.83 : 44.17 : 40% with numerical and 15.74 : 44.26 : 26.40% with graphical method (pacific sand lance sauce by-product : dried biji : wheat flour). Based on the growth performance, feed conversion efficiency was slightly lower than control group, but the protein content in feed extrudate increased to a large extent compared to that mixed with wet biji.

This study investigated the current processing degree and ingredients of sauce on the packaging of the commercial eel products made in Northeast Asia (Korea, Japan, China and Taiwan) and surveyedthe perception of nutritional functionality and purchasing pattern of Japanese consumers for the processed eels. The results are considered as a useful aid for preparation of processed eel products. The commercial eel products, purchased at a department store, supermarket and discount market, were divided by processing method, package quantity, storage method and sauce ingredients. The processing method was indicated in many different ways in each country, such as sauce ingredients and intake method. A questionnaire survey was conducted on 105 Japanese consumers (male 43, female 62) visiting Korea. Of the respondents, 44% answered and the major reasons for purchasing processed eel products were as a side dish for meals. The results for this factor were significantly different in relation to age (p <0.05). The degree of perceptions of functional excellence about processed eel products was well known (37%), some (49%), and seldom (14%). The results for this factor were significantly different in relation to age (p <0.001). Seventy-five percent of the respondents had experienced processed eel products. The type of purchase of the respondents was highest for vinegared rice and fish (47%), followed by freezing (33%), canning (5%), and dried food (4%), in that order.

The quality characteristics of the Korean traditional salt-fermented fish sauces, the traditional anchovy sauce (TAS) and the sandlance sauce(TKS) were evaluated comparing to the commercial anchovy sauce (CAS) and sandlance sauce (CKS). The acidity was higher in TKS than in TAS, whereas the contents of VBN, total-N and amino-N were higher levels in TAS. In color values, L and b values in TAS were generally higher than those in TKS, whereas a and ${\Delta}E$ values were higher in TKS. The contents of total free amino acids in TAS and TKS were $12.40\;g\%$ (w/v) and $9.549 g\%$ (w/v), respectively. The contents or six amino acids, alanine, glutamic acid, leucine, isoleucine, valine and Iysine were higher in TAS, whereas the contents of arginine, glutamic acid, leucine, alanine and valine were higher in TKS. Nucleotides such as IMP and hypoxanthine were principal components in both TAS and TKS. The nitrogen related compounds, TMAO, TMA and total creatinine were determined to be $108.8\;mg\%$ (w/v), $60.5\;mg\%$ (w/v), $62.4\;mg\%$ (w/v) in TAS, and those in TKS were $60.1\;mg\%$ (w/v), $24.1\;mg\%$ (w/v), $67.6\;mg\%$ (w/v), respectively.

In order to utilize the protein source from a fish proessing by-product, cod was hydrolyzed with various enzymes such as tuna pyloric caeca crude enzyme (TPCCE), a-chymotrypsin, trypsin, papain and pronase E. The TPCCE hydrolysate acquired the highest sensory properties on taste, odor and color. The resultant cod rfame protein hydrolysate (CFPH) which was hydrolyzed with TPCCE, was separated through a series of ultrafiltration membranes with molecular weight cut-off (MWCO) of 30, 10, 5 and 1 kDa, and four types of permeates in cluding 30 K (permeate from 30 kDa membrane), 10 K (permeate from 10 kDa membrane), 5 K (permeate from 5 kDa membrane) and 1 K (permeate from 1 kDa membrane) were obtained. The natural sauces were prepared with 30 K, 10 K, 5 K and 1 K hydrolysate, and the sauce prepared with 1 K hydrolysate was the best score in sensory evaluations. In addition the mixed sauce prepared with 1 K hydrolysate and commercial soy sauce was similar to commercial sauce in sensory properties. These results suggest that the mixed sauce would be utilized as the substitute of acid-hydrolysis sauce.

Fish sauce is a traditional Korean fermented seafood and has been used as a condiment since long time ago. Northern sand lance sauce was manufactured with koji, enzyme, and squid viscera of fermentation accelerating agents, and ripened at $15^{\circ}C$. Moisture contents of all samples decreased gradually as fermentation progressed. Crude protein contents increased rapidly up to 1 month-fermentation and then increased slightly up to 5 month. Northern sand lance sauce with squid viscera was the highest in the contents of protein and lipid. The ash content increased gradually during the fermentation periods, while pHs decreased. TMA contents increased up to 3 month-ripening and then decreased slightly. Amino nitrogen content of Northern sand lance sauce with squid viscera increased as fermentation progressed and was the highest among all samples. VBN contents increased up to 5 month-ripening and that of Northern sand lance sauce with squid viscera was the higher than others.

In oder to investigate the cooking potentiality for Japanese dishes using domestic Citrus sudachi cultivated in Jeju, sauce making, grilling, steaming, pot-boiling, frying, and sushi/sashimi making were prepared and evaluated. The content of moisture, fat, protein, fiber, carbohydrate, and ash in the Citrus sudachi juice were 91.5%, 0.21%, 0.62%, 0.23%, 5.32%, 0.25%, receptively. The acidity, $^{\circ}Brix$ 7.4, pH of sudachi juice were 5.09%, $^{\circ}Brix$ 7.4, pH 3.02, receptively. In Japanese cuisine, it was possible for sudachi juice to replace vinegar in dressing for raw vegetables, and various sauce for fish dishes such as ponzu, wafu dressing, sushi vinegar and tentsuyu. Among thirteen kind of Japanese cuisine with sudachi juice, broiled mackerel, barbecue, tobinmusi showed high acceptability in the sensory evaluation. The most acceptable recipe of vinegar soy sauce was considered by the ratio of 4(soy sauce) : 3(sudachi juice). In addition, it is possible to use processed good made from the Citrus sudachi juice as all kind of Japanese cooking seasoning. Therefore, imported lemons or limes might be replaced with domestic citrus sudachi cultivated in Jeju.

Angiotensin converting enzyme(ACE) inhibitory activity of Kimchi added with salted-fermented fish products(SFFP), such as salted-fermented anchovy(SFA), salted-fermented anchovy sauce(SFAS), low salt-fermented anchovy sauce(LSFAS), salted-fermented small shrimp(SFS), low salt-fermented sandlance sauce(LSFSS) and their alternatives, such as oyster hydrolysate(OH), Alaska pollack hydrolysate(APH) and sea-staghorn extract(SSE) were studied during fermentation at $20^{\circ}C,\;10^{\circ}C\;and\;4^{\circ}C$. ACE inhibitory activities of Kimchi samples added with SFFP were increased until some fermentation period and then kept similarly constant levels at every fermentation temperature. Similar tendencies were occurred in amino nitrogen (AN) content. ACE inhibitory activities of Kimchi samples added with SFFP alternatives rapidly increased in 1st or 2nd day fermentation and then very slowly increased but AN contents showed roughly constant levels $(400{\sim}600\;mg/100\;g)$ in every fermentation temperature. Kimchi added with LSFAS had higher ACE inhibitory activity (>80%) with elevated level of AN (>600 mg/100 g) among the tested Kimchi samples. Kimchi samples added with SFFP alternatives also showed comparable activity to Kimchi added with SFFP This study shows that Kimchi added with SFFP and their alternatives is a good source as a functional food.
