The flavor constituents and functionality of small kingfish were studied as affected by two stage enzyme hydrolysis (TSEH). Total free amino acid contents in water extract, autolytic extract and TSEH of small kingfish were 541.3 mg%, 8,245.3 mg% and 6,636.6 mg%, respectively. Major free amino acids in TSEH were hydroxyproline, glutamic acid, proline, leucine, phenylalanine, lysine, arginine. As for nucleotides and other bases, IMP, TMAO and total creatinine were principal components in TSEH. And the major inorganic ions in TSEH were Na, K, P, Cl and $PO_{4}$. Also TSEH of small kingfish revealed very higher Angiotensin-I converting enzyme inhibition effect than those of water and autolytic extract.

Effects of cooking and drying methods on the taste component and microstructure of shrimp, Metapenaeus joyneri, were investigated. The nucleotides and their related compounds of fresh shirmp such as ATP, ADP, AMP, IMP, inosine and hypoxanthine were detected. AMP was detected as a trace amount in fresh shrimp, however, it increased up to $23.5{\sim}45.7{\mu}$ moles with cooking and drying due to the decomposition of ATP and ADP to AMP during cooking and drying. The major component of the free amino acids of fresh shrimp was arginine followed by glycine, lysine, proline and alanine. These free amino acids contents were 70% of the total free amino acids. One hundred grams of fresh shrimp contained 1,198mg (dry basis) of the total free amino acids. However, for hot air and freeze dried cooked shrimps it was decreased down to 342mg (dry basis) and 503mg (dry basis), respectively. It might be due to the dissolution of soluble amino acids during cooking. Hot air-and freeze-dried fresh shrimps was higher in hardness and brittleness but lower in cohesiveness and gumminess than hot air-and freeze-dried ones with boiling and microwave heating. Freeze dried shrimp had softer myofibril texture than hot air dried one. At the same time, more dense and multiporous structure in the tissue could be obtained from the hot air and freeze drying, respectively, after microwave heating of shrimps.

In this study, eel, puffer and snake head fish, which are widely taken and highly valued for processing into baked fish, soup or fish juice were studied by classifying them into wild fish and cultured fish, and evaluated in terms of taste. The samples were gathered in the area including Kimhae, Samchonpo and Haman in Kyungsangnam-do, Kangsu-Gu in Pusan and Bukcheju-Gun in Cheju-do. Proximate compositions, the content of nucleotides and their related compounds, total and free amino acids, organic acids and fatty acids of the fishes were analysed. Generally, as for the compositions, wild fish had a higher crude fat content and a lower moisture content as compared with cultured fish, while there was no great difference between them in terms of crude protein and ash contents. Nucleotides and their related compounds including ATP, ADP, AMP, IMP, HxR, Hx were detected, and the amounts of which were nearly the same with respect to the growth conditions. IMP content was high in all of the samples, while ATP content was extremely low. Total 17 amino acids were detected from the samples, and most of the samples had high contents of glutamic acid, aspartic acid, lysine, leucine, glycine, alanine and arginine, and low contents of cystein, isoleucine and methionine. As for the other amino acids, generally same level of contents were detected for each samples. In cases of eel and snake head fish, the wild fish had higher total amino acid contents in comparison with cultured fish. And the result to the contrary was obtained for the case of puffer. Sample fishes had nearly the same compose distribution of free amino acid though the contents of which were a little different according to the samples. Each sample had high contents of taurine, hydroxyproline, glutamic acid, glycine, cystathionine, ${\beta}-aminoisobutyric$ acid and lysine. Total organic acid contents of cultured fish was higher than that of wild fish. All fishes commonly had high contents of lactic acid, iso-valeric acid, oxalic acid and fumaric acid. High levels of $C_{16:0},\;C_{16:1},\;C_{18:1(cis)},\;C_{18:3},\;and\;C_{22:6}$ were shown in all of the samples and ${\omega}-3$ polyunsaturated fatty acid content of cultured fish was higher than that of wild fish, and as for the essential fatty acid, wild fish has higher content in comparison with cultured fish.

Optimum conditions to prepare a yeast extract with rice protein hydrolysates(rh) were investigated. The yeast extract was obtained at the level of 2.3 g/L from the yeast culture medium($30^{\circ}C$, 48 hr) composed of 5% rh and glucose( 3%, w/w). Within the extract, RNA was contained at the level of 188.1 mg/g and the levels of GMP and IMP as nucleotides were $650.33{\pm}48{\mu}g/g$, $69{\pm}21{\mu}g/g$, respectively. When Rrh(Residual rice protein hydrolysate by $Delvolase^{(R)}$) was supplemented into a yeast extract, the savory taste like umami of the mixture was found to increase noticeably based on the measurements by taste sensing system as well as sensory test. It is assumed that soluble peptides in Rrh could play an important role in improving the overall taste of yeast extract by enhancing its umami taste. Therefore, the yeast extract supplemented with Rrh could be used for manufacturing a high value-added natural seasoning ingredient.

This study investigated the strains and fermentation characteristics of used to ferment a mixture of rice and soybeans to manufacture low-salt doenjang for flavoring. The soybean and rice mixture was fermented using three selected strains of Aapergillus oryzae and Bacillus sp. The changes in quality of the fermented products were found to be dependent on the aging period. Therefore, the strain and a suitable aging period were seleted based on the increases in AN, total sugar, and reducing sugar. The fermented products were prepared and mixed, using the selected or commercially available strains (the sample and control, respectively), to create low-salt doenjang. Following this, their characteristics were compared. The sample had a higher content of taste-related ingredients(free amino acid, nucleic acid-related substances) than the control. Using the selected strain to ferment a rice and soybean mixture will thus be expected to enhance the flavor of industrially produced seasoned doenjang.

HPLC separation of ionic samples tends to be more complicated and difficult to understand than that of non-ionic compounds. On the other hand, band spacing is much more easily manipulated for ionic than for neutral samples. Ion-suppression RP-HPLC method was used with organic modifier and aqueous buffer solution. In this work, five mononucleotides of cytidine-5-monophosphate (5-CMP) disodium salt, uridine-5-monophosphate disodium salt (5-UMP), guanosine-5-monophosphate disodium salt (5-GMP), inosine-5-monophosphate disodium salt (5-IMP), and adenosine-5-monophosphate disodium salt (5-AMP) were examined. Acetic acid and sodium phosphate were used as buffers, and methanol as an organic modifier. A new relationship between the retention factor and the buffer concentration at a fixed modifier content (5% of methanol) could be expressed by following: K = (k(sub)-1 + k(sub)0 (k(sub)B/k(sub)S)/(1 + (k(sub)B/k(sub)S) C(sub)B(sup)a), where C(sub)B was the concentration of buffer. Using this relationship, the calculated values closely matched the experimental data. The derived relationship showed that as the buffer concentration increased, the retention factor approached a certain value, and this was buffer dependent.
