This study was to determine the inhibitory effect against food borne pathogens of ethanol and water extracts from leaf, stem and root of Orostachys japonicus. On the paper disc assay, no detectable bactericidal activity in the water extracts from leaf, stem and root of Orostachys japonicus and ethanol extracts form stem and root of Orostachys japonicus was shown. However, ethanol extract of Orostachys japonicus leaf showed the highest antimicrobial activity. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of ethanol extracts was determined to range from 0.05 to 0.1% in leaf of Orostachys japonicus against gram positive bacteria and yeast. Antimicrobial activity of ethanol extracts was stable by heating at $121^{\circ}C$ for 15 min, and not affected by pH $2{\sim}10$ except for B. subtilis. These findings suggest ethanol extract from leaf of Orostachys japonicus may be useful as natural preservative.

Sensory and consumer science is one of the four core sciences in food science training. In early years, this field of studies are focused on providing food technologists information of sensory attributes of food for quality control and product optimization, and referred as sensory evaluation or sensory science interchangeably. Yet, during the last decades, its scope has been much broadened looking at sensory properties of food not just as product attributes but consumer-perceived properties, emphasizing human experience. Attentions are increased for sensory fundamentals(sensory psychology and physiology) and multidisciplinary integration of theories and measurement methods for improving satisfaction of consumers' sensory experience and promoting healthy eating and wellbeing. The Sensory Evaluation(SE) division of Korean Society of Food Science and Technology(KoSFoST) has recently changed its name to Sensory and Consumer Science(SCS) division in order to address such evolution of the field and sensory professional's role.

The anti-inflammatory effects of Sargassum fulvellum water extracts (SFWE) were investigated using lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory response in this study. To examine the potential anti-inflammatory properties of SFWE, the NO, TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-6, IL-$1{\beta}$, and cell proliferation were measured. It was confirmed that the NO and TNF-${\alpha}$ secretion were significantly suppressed when SFWE was added to LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. Moreover, the expression of IL-6 and IL-$1{\beta}$ cytokines was suppressed by SFWE in a dose-dependent manner. Especially, IL-6 inhibition activities were over 50% at 1% of SFWE. The cytotoxicity of SFWE and the proliferation of macrophages was measured by MTT assay. As a result, there was no cytotoxicity in the macrophage proliferation treated with SFWE compared to the control. In conclusion, these results suggested that the SFWE may have significant effects on inflammatory factors and can be a potential anti-inflammatory therapeutic materials.

In this study, the physicochemical changes related to fishy smell were determined by storing high hydrostatic pressure (HHP)-treated mackerel (Scomber japonicus) meat in a refrigerator for 20 days. The inhibition of crude urease activity from Vibrio parahaemolyticus using HHP treatment was also investigated. The mackerel meat storage experiment demonstrated that production of trimethylamine (TMA) and volatile basic nitrogen (VBN), the main components of fishy smell, was significantly reduced on the 20th day of storage after the HHP treatment compared to the untreated mackerels. The results demonstrated that the increased ammonia nitrogen rates in the 2000, 3000, and 4000 bar, HHP-treated groups decreased by 23.8%, 23.8%, and 31.0%, respectively, compared to the untreated groups. The enzyme activity of crude urease was significantly reduced in the HHP-treated group compared to that in the untreated group. Measurement of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in mackerel meat during storage indicated that the content of ethanol, 2-butanone, 3-methylbutanal, and trans-2-pentenal, which are known to cause off-flavor due to spoilage, were significantly reduced by HHP treatment. Collectively, our results suggested that HHP treatment would be useful for inhibiting the activity of urease, thereby reducing the fishy smells from fish and shellfish.
