To confirm the influence of modified starch on frozen storage stability, the microstructure and sensory characteristics of fish cakes, called Eomuk in Korea, by using seven varieties of starch, including native starch (NS), physically treated corn starch (MS) and modified starch [treatment with acetate (SA-1, SA-2 and SA-3), hydroxypropyl (HS), and acetylated distarch adipate (ADA)] were evaluated. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) photographs showed fish cakes with NS had a finer and denser network structure than those made with modified starches. During frozen storage, fish cakes with HS and ADA exhibited a stable structure, as evaluated by porosity and rough surface. The results of the sensory evaluation showed that modified starch, including HS, SA-2 and ADA, increased the taste and firmness of the fish cakes, while NS, MS and the modified starch SA-3 resulted a decrease in the sensory properties during storage. Therefore, HS, SA-2 and ADA are suitable additives to improve the sensory quality of frozen fish cakes.

To investigate availability of color value as quality standard for grading of salt-fermented fish sauces, the effect of storage period, dilution ratios, additives (glucose, MSG, IMP) and pigments (caramel and tar) on the changes of color value were measured by spectrophotomeky. The highest absorbance was scanned at 453 nm in fish sauces (anchovy and northern sand lance) without regard to storage periods, dilution ratios, pigments and additives. Absorbance at 453 nm was gradually increased during storage in fish sauces, and absorbance of northern sand lance sauce was higher than that of anchovy sauce during fermentation. There were almost no differences according to concentration of additives in fish sauces added additives during storage. But in case of fish sauces added pigments, absorbance increase of fish sauces added tar pigment was faster than that of caramel pigment during storage. The results suggest that color value is inadequate as quality standard for grading of salt-fermented fish sauces.

Changes in fish jelly forming ability of pretreated and frozen common carp and conger eel were examined. Four kinds of pretreated samples were prepared such as round, mechanically separated meat using fishmeat separator, chopped and water washed meat and fish meat paste. The quality of pretreated samples and fish jelly products made from pretreated sample were generally in good condition for three months of frozen storage at $-30^{\circ}C$. Judging from fish jelly forming ability, the round state of common carp was superior to other pretreated samples during frozen storage. In case of conger eel, fish meat paste revealed totter jelly forming ability than any other pretreated samples during frozen storage.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the nutrition composition and physiological changes, and to evaluate the food quality of live fish in cultured and wild fishes which have been kept in an aquarium tank. The moisture and lipid content of wild and cultured fishes when kept in an aquarium tank for seven-days storage was found to be lower than those of the initial stage storage(zero day). The breaking strength was also rapidly decreased in all of live fishes tested in this study as the periods of storage extended. The protein content did not differ significantly. However, the content of cortisol, which is a indicator indicating a stress reaction in tissues, was apt to increasing as the periods of storage extended. The cortisol content of wild fishes were higher than those of cultured fishes. On the other hand, the activity of activities of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST), which is also a indicator indicating a stress reaction, were not changed in the serum of wild and cultured fish, suggesting the ALT and AST activity dose not directly related with a healthy loss originated from stress. The death ratio of wild fishes were higher than cultured ones due to limited activity and stress during the storage in a aquarium tank.

The effect of lysine or methionine addition on the lipid oxidation and protein properties in casein-fish oil model system during the storage of 21 days at 37$^{\circ}C$ was studied. The peroxide and TBA values were increased markedly and the amino acids addition to the system caused to reduce the extent of lipid oxidation in comparison with that of casein-fish oil system which was a control group. Significant changes in fatty acid composition of each group were observed. Polyenoic acid contents were drastically decreased during the storage in the groups with and without the amino acids additions, . And also significant losses of several amino acids were occurred with the reduction of solubility and digestibility of casein during the storage. However no different effects were observed in both additionsof lysine and methionine to the system.

The change of cell counts of Vibrio parahaemolyticus in fish muscle by the storage time and temperature was examined to get basic informations for precautionary steps against food poisoning of slices of raw fish (sashimi). There fore, we inoculated fish homogenate of oceanic bonito (Katsuwonus pelamis), yellow tail (Seriola quinqueradiata) with Kanagawa positive Vibrio parahaemolyticus and stored it at $30^{\circ}C,\;18^{\circ}C,\;4^{\circ}C\;and\;-20^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours. The number of the Vibrio parahaemolyticus upon fish homogenate stored at $30^{\circ}C\;and\;18^{\circ}C$ decreased for the first two hours and increased thereafter. When the fish homogenates inoculated with Vibrio parahaemolyticus at about $10^3$ per gram were stored at $18^{\circ}C\;and\;30^{\circ}C$ for 10 hours, the cell numbers increased about 10 times and 1,000 times initial cell numbers, respectively. The survival rate of Vibrio parahaemolyticus was about $20\%$, when the inoculated fish homogenates were stored at $-20^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours. Vibrio parahaemolyticus inoculated in fish homogenates was decreased by about $10\%$ of initial cell numbers by the storage at $4^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours and it was decreased by about $50\%$ after 24 hours storage of the samples at the same temperature. The decreasing rate of inoculated Vibrio parahaemolyticus in fresh fish muscle homogenate was higher than that in frozen fish muscle homogenate during the storage time at a refrigerator.

In this work, lipid oxidation and the kinetics of the oxidation reaction in fried file-fish meat were investigated when sun-dried file-fish was stored under the conditions of various water activities and temperature, 35, 45, 55 and $35/55^{\circ}C$. The storage stability and the development of browning by oxidative rancidity were also discussed. Monolayer coverage value of water content in dried file-fish was $8.03\%$ at $0.21\;a_w$Lipid oxidation at $35^{\circ}C$ was developed with increasing water activity but at $45^{\circ}C$and $55^{\circ}C$ it was rapidly progressed without clear differences between water activities except $0.44\;a_w$. The rate of reaction was more sensitive to storage temperature than to water activity. Browning in methanol-chloroform fraction was developed linearly by the progress of lipid oxidation which suggested that lipid oxidation was greatly influential to the development of browning in dried fish meat. In kinetical analysis the oxidation followed a zero order reaction mechanism as a function of carbonyl value. The activation energies obtained from the Arrhenius plot ranged 9.0 to 10.8 Kcal/mol and $Q_10$ values, 1.6-1.7. Shelf-lives at the storage of 35,45 and $55^{\circ}C$ ranged 58 days to 8 days. And in the fluctuating temperature storage at $35/55^{\circ}C$, shelf-lives were 17, 16, 15 and 13 days at 0.44, 0.52, 0.65 and $0.75\;a_w$, respectively. The shelf-lives for assessed from the accelerated shelf-life test were 125, 123, 120 and 106 days at 0.44, 0.52, 0.65 and $0.75\;a_w$, respectively, in the case of storage at $25^{\circ}C$.
