This research expands investigations into the biomass resource potential associated with California's food processing industry by surveying industries within a two county region in the San Joaquin Valley, California, USA. A previous survey conducted in 2005 for the Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD) quantified residue and waste generation from food processors and food preparation businesses in the Sacramento region. The present survey investigates residue and waste streams from food processors located in Merced and Stanislaus Counties. Sixty food processors were identified to participate in the survey, of which 49 responded (82%) and data were acquired for 38 (63%) (6 facilities closed or moved, 8 decided not to participate). Within the two counties, total annual waste among survey respondents amounted to 24,044 dry tons of high moisture (${\geq}$60%) food residuals, 5,358 dry tons of low moisture (<60%) food residuals; and 23.7 million $m^3$ of wastewater containing 38,814 tons of biochemical oxygen demand ($BOD_5$). The total potential electric power generation from these food residues was estimated at approximately $7\;MW_e$. Total solid waste resource included in the survey response was estimated at about 10% of statewide residue generation for processors falling within the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) System Major Group 20 (Food and Kindred Products) categories.

According to a survey conducted recently, consumers are feeling the anxiety to food, it can be seen that the extent to which feels uneasy about pesticide residues among them in particular is high. Foods that are commercially available, is set (pesticide residue standards, acceptable daily intake daily (ADI), non-toxic amount) residual acceptable standards of pesticides so as not to give the damage to human health. However, in the case of consumers of general knowledge on Standards for pesticide residues is not sufficient, anxiety over food safety still exists. Therefore, in this study, as can be easily understood and accurate information to consumers a general basic knowledge on the safety of food is insufficient is related to food safety, was utilizing the graphic display of a one-dimensional you are trying to provide information providing method. As a result, in the display method is utilized to provide the information on food existing for, from the form of the information by utilizing the graphs and characters, using a graphical display showing the criteria for pesticide residues in one dimension it was found that the display shows how to readily appreciate the most accurate and safety standards regarding pesticide residues.

For the use of salmon frame in zero emission, the snack using residues of salmon Gomtang was prepared and investigated on the food component characterization. According to the results of volatile basic nitrogen, water activity and sensory evaluation, the optimal substitution ratio of residues was 15% based on the mix. Total amino acid content was higher in the snack (14.8 g/100 g) with 15% residues than in snack (9.8 g/100 g) without residues. The major amino acids of the residues-added snack were aspartic acid (9.9%), glutamic acid (14.7%) and proline (9.5%). The snack with 15% residues were enriched in the mineral (calcium and phosphorus) and polyunsaturated fatty acid (20:5n-3 and 22:6n-3) compared to those of snack without residues.

Ethoxyquin (EQ, 1,2-dihydro-6-ethoxy-2,2,4-trimethyl-quinoline) is quinoline-based antioxidant used in the animal feed and food industry to protect the raw materials and final products against oxidation. In recent years the use of synthetic antioxidants in fishmeal ingredients carry-over to farmed fish fillets has received increasing attention in food safety. This study was conducted to develop an analytical method to determine EQ in aquatic products. The analytes were confirmed and quantified via liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) in the positive ion mode using multiple reaction monitoring (MRM). The sample was extracted with 1 N HCl (in case of flatfish extracted with 1 N HCl containing 10% acetonitrile). Then, solid phase extraction (SPE) was used for the cleanup. Standard calibration curves presented linearity with the correlation coefficient ($r^2$) > 0.99, analyzed at 0.005-0.2 mg/kg concentration. The developed method was validated according to the Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC) guideline. The limits of quantitation for EQ were 0.01 mg/kg. Average recoveries ranged from 81.3% to 107%. The repeatability of measurements, expressed as the coefficient of variation (CV, %), was below 10%. The analytical method was characterized with high accuracy and acceptable sensitivity to meet CODEX guideline requirements and would be applicable to analyze the EQ residue in aquatic products.

Characteristics and properties of gelatin from goat skin pretreated with NaOH solutions (0.50 and 0.75 M) for various times (1 to 4 days) were investigated. All gelatins contained ${\alpha}$-chains as the predominant component, followed by ${\beta}$-chain. Gelling and melting temperatures of those gelatins were $23.02^{\circ}C$ to $24.16^{\circ}C$ and $33.07^{\circ}C$ to $34.51^{\circ}C$, respectively. Gel strength of gelatins increased as NaOH concentration and pretreatment time increased (p<0.05). Pretreatment for a longer time yielded gelatin with a decrease in $L^*$-value but an increase in $b^*$-value. Pretreatment of goat skin using 0.75 M NaOH for 2 days rendered the highest yield (15.95%, wet weight basis) as well as high gel strength (222.42 g), which was higher than bovine gelatin (199.15 g). Gelatin obtained had the imino acid content of 226 residues/1,000 residues and the gelatin gel had a fine and ordered structure. Therefore, goat skin gelatin could be used as a potential replacer of commercial gelatin.

This study was carried out to establish Korean total diet study (TDS) model for estimating pesticide residue in food samples. In addition, pesticide residues of food samples were monitored by setting the standards of established Korean total diet study model. For monitoring, first step were selection of total 102 species food samples, second step were selection of total 70 species food samples, and third step were selection of total 12 representative diet and 109 species food samples. Ninety-eight pesticides were analyzed using $GC-{\mu}ECD$, GC-MS, and LC-MS/MS after QuEChERS sample preparation method. The residue levels in detected food samples were below the maximum residue limit (MRL). Establishment of the Korean total diet study model means providing safe food for consumers, secure the safety of food samples and provide ongoing information to agricultural producers about use of pesticides.

Antibiotic residues are undesirable in milk and milk products for a number of reasons. In particular, they can have harmful effects on public health and harm to the manufacturer of the cultured milk products, e.g. MRSA etc. Although government regulatory agencies and the dairy industry have been successful in decreasing the presence of high concentrations of antibiotic residues, violations still occur and lead to contaminated products. As a result, several rapid and reliable methods for the detection of antibiotic residues have been developed, including microbiological and instrumental analysis methods. The conventional methods are time consuming, but recent improvements have allowed for better detection time, sensitivity, and accuracy. An example of an advanced detection instrument is the biosensor, which has several applications in food and environmental science, e.g. food-born pathogen detection, antimicrobial residues etc. In the present review, the recent trends in the methods used to test for antibiotic residues in milk and dairy products, as well as their specific applications, have been discussed.
