A method was developed to detect total mutagenicity of fried fish for S. typhimurium TA98, using Ames assay. Method described herein circumvented problems associated with the sample preparation for Ames assay, i.e., a multi-purification step of sample and interference with solvent residuals. Experiment A, the best method developed in the present study, consisted of two important steps: pH adjustment of the aqueous sample solution from fried fish samples to remove impurities, and simultaneous distillation extraction (SDE) for partially purified samples to remove volatile compounds from solvents. The procedure and results were described as below. Fillet of gizzard shad (Konosirus punctatus) fish sample fried for 10 min each side on the temperature-controlled fry-pan (210$\circ$C) was homogenized in an aqueous acidic solution (pH 2) with a homogenizer, followed by filtration through Celite. The tiltrate (pH 2), removed some impurities by extraction with chloroform:methanol (2:1, v/v) mixture, was adjusted pH to 10 and then centrifuged to remove precipitate. The ethylacetate extract from the tiltrate of pH 10 was rotoevaporated and purified by SDE apparatus for 2 hours. Experiment A revealed significantly higher revertants (1928 per 25 g fried sample) than other Experiment (B, C, or D) tested. Experiment A gave good results in the mutagenicity test of fried fish sample with few purification steps using only 25 g fried sample and 650 ml of solvents; and thus this method could be a useful tool for the screening the mutagenicity or antimutagenicity of other foods as well.

Fried-fish snacks containing surimi are a popular seafood product in Asia. To prepare fried-fish snacks, various ingredients are added to surimi. Among them, starch is important for producing snacks of desirable texture and taste. We investigated the physicochemical properties of fried-fish snacks containing arrowroot, potato, sweet potato, corn, and tapioca starches. The fried-fish snack with arrowroot starch showed the highest drying rate; after drying for 3 hours, the water content was unchanged. None of the starches affected the total volatile basic nitrogen values of the fried-fish snacks, which were approximately 1.5 mg/100 g, indicating freshness. The fried-fish snacks with corn and arrowroot starches had the highest brightness (L) values and the fried-fish snack with tapioca starch, the lowest L value. The hardness value of the fried-fish snack with tapioca starch was significantly higher than that of the other fried-fish snacks. In the sensory evaluation, the fried-fish snacks with arrowroot starch showed the best overall acceptance.

The effect of pan frying method was evaluated for proximate composition of selected fish species Pampus argenteus, Lethrinus nebulosus and Acanthopagarus arabicus which were determined by standard procedures. Proximate compositions found in the frying fillets were different to the raw fish samples. The moisture content seems to decrease in all fried samples. The reason of moisture loss at the time of frying produced is excessive protein amount in fried fish as compare to raw fish. Protein content seemed to increase in Pampus argentus > Lethrinus nebulosus and >Acanthopagrus arabicus in their particular fried form. The outcomes shown that protein content was in the ranges of 14.83-25.07 g/100g in fried samples, while the fat content was between 3.76-9.77 g/100 g. The energy content was the highest in the fried fish Lethrinus nebulosus (236 kcal/100 g), Pampus argentus (161 kcal/100 g) and Acanthopagrus arabicus (135 kcal/100 g). The information achieved in this study would be very important to fish consumers, processors and nutritionists to academically increase their awareness regarding the nutrients contents in selected fish species.

In order to establish quality indices of commercial fish paste products, the contents of starch in fried fish meat pastes, crab meat analogs and steamed kamaboko were investigated, and significant correlation between starch and texture was also evaluated. from the results, the starch contents in fried fish meat pastes, crab meat analogs and steamed kamaboko were $16.5\sim20.6\%,\;12.4\sim17.3\%\;and\;8.1\sim8.7\%$, respectively. Two texture profiles such as hardness and elasticity had significantly correlation (p<0.01) with starch contents. Namely, the hardness had significantly positive correlation in fried fish meat pastes (r=0.78) and in crab meat analogs (r=0.71), respectively. Elasticity also had significantly negative correlation in fried fish meat pastes (r=-0.99).

This study was conducted to develop food for the elderly, which are well-shaped and easy to chew and swallow. The amounts of water and gelatin were adjusted to facilitate breaking down of the food with the tongue. In the aging society, it is necessary to support the development of a variety of products that can ease the intake functions of swallowing and chewing, while complementing with the essential nutrients supplements; such products can be actively commercialized in the elderly industry. Various types of food, for elderly with difficulties in chewing and swallowing, were used for sensory assessment. Sensory panel consisted of 10 dietitians (10 women) in nursing care facilities. The sensory optimal composite recipes were determined by central composite design (CCD). The sensory measurements were significantly different in the appearance (p<0.01), saltiness (p<0.01) and overall quality (p<0.01). The optimum formulation of pan fried flat fish, calculated by numerical and graphical method, was 8.54 g of salt and 6.34 g of olive oil. Moisture content, hardness, and adhesiveness of pan fried flat fish were 84.77%, 250, and -1.20, respectively. The result showed that easily chewable and swallowable pan fried flat fish for the elderly will have sufficient competitiveness, considering its safety, taste, and preference. This study may provide the basic materials for the development of easily chewable and swallowable foods for elderly.

The effects of ethanol extract of onion (EEO) on the qualify of fried fish paste were investigated. EEO was added at 0, 1, 3 and 5% level. Quality attributes including moisture content, pH, acid value, TBA value, volatile basic nitrogen, color value, viable cell count and sensory evaluation were analyzed. Moisture content was not changed by addition of EEO. Increasing the amount of EEO, pH, acid value and TBA value of fried fish paste tended to decreased but volatile basic nitrogen increased. L-value was decreased and a-value and b-value were increased by addition of EEO. Viable cell count was decreased by addition of EEO. In sensory evaluation, the higher amount of EEO obtained higher favorite score in flavor and taste, and 3% EEO had the best score in overall acceptance. These results suggest that EEO can be applied to fried fish paste for the purpose of high quality and functionality.

To help reduce high intake of sodium in the Korean diet, sodium-reduced fried fish cakes (SRFFCs) were prepared and evaluated with regard to color, textural properties, and sensory attributes as indicators of quality. The quality characteristics of 30% SRFFCs were not notably different from those of full sodium FFCs; however, substitution of sodium with potassium altered the color and decreased consumer acceptance on sensory evaluation items. These results suggest that the SRFFCs that will be accepted by consumers can be prepared without compromising the quality.

We made sand-lance meat paste containing 0.1-0.5% propolis to improve the quality of the product. The quality characteristics were analyzed by the acid value, peroxide value, volatile basic nitrogen, pH, viable cell count, and sensory evaluation. The fried sand-lance meat paste made with added propolis had a lower acid value, peroxide value, and volatile basic nitrogen content after frying compared to the control prepared with potassium sorbate. The antioxidant and antispoiling effect of propolis on the fried fish meat paste increased with the amount of propolis added. The fried sand-lance meat paste made with 0.2% added propolis was very acceptable. In addition, the bitter taste of the sand-lance meat paste containing 0.2% propolis was blocked by adding 2% sweet amber powder to the paste.
