This study compared the meat quality of sea rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss frame muscle (S-FR-TY) and fillet (S-FI-TY) with the frame muscle of freshwater rainbow trout (F-FR). There was a difference of < 1% in the proximate composition of S-FR-TY vs. S-FI-TY, and of S-FR-TY vs. F-FR. The Hunter a value of F-FR-TY was lower compared with that of F-FR cultured in Jecheon (F-FR-JC), but higher than that of F-FR cultured in Pyeongtaek (F-FR-PT). However, no difference in the Hunter a value of S-FR-TY compared with any other F-FR was observed. The odor intensity of S-FR-TY was lower compared with that of F-FR, while the taste of S-FR-TY was milder than that of S-FI-TY, but stronger than that of F-FR. Although its total amino acid content was lower, the essential amino acid content of S-FR-TY was higher compared with S-FI-TY; the potassium content of S-FR-TY was also significantly greater. S-FR-TY contained high levels of nutritional and functional components, such as anserine, lysine, threonine, and eicosapentaenoic and docosahexaenoic acid. These results suggest that S-FR-TY could be used as a resource of canned food or fish jerky for children.

This study compared the food quality of salmonid fishes according to the species, country of origin, and separated part, such as fillet and frame. The proximate composition of chum salmon from Norway (CS-N) was 74.4% moisture, 19.5% crude protein, 4.2% crude lipid, and 1.2% ash. These values were within roughly 1% for the other salmon species. There was no significant difference (at P<0.05) in the Hunter a value of salmon muscle according to sepatated parts. However, there was a significant difference (P<0.05) in Hunter a value of salmon muscle according to the species and country of origin. There were significant differences in odor intensity and hardness of the salmon according to the species. The major free amino acid in all of the salmon muscles was anserine, which ranged from 61.3 to 73.0%. The taste value was the highest for salmon imported from Alaska (CS-A), followed by pink salmon, CS-N, and muscle separated from the frame (AS-C). In the taste value of all salmon muscles, the major amino acid was glutamic acid. The total amino acid content of salmon muscles ranged from 18.36 to 19.64 g/100 g, and the major amino acids were glutamic acid and aspartic acid. There were differences in the mineral contents, including Ca, P, K, and Fe, and fatty acid composition of salmon muscle according to species.

Objective: This study was conducted to determine reduction of various odorous materials from a swine farm equipped with a continuous pit recirculation system (CPRS) with aerobically treated liquid manure. Methods: The CPRS is used in swine farms in South Korea, primarily to improve air quality in pig houses. In this study, CPRS consists of a manure aerobic treatment system and a fit recirculation system; the solid fraction is separated and composted, whereas the aerobically treated liquid fraction (290.0%±21.0% per day of total stored swine slurry) is continuously returned to the pit. Four confinement pig barns in three piggery farms were used; two were equipped with CPRS and the other two operated a slurry pit under the slatted floor. Results: All chemical contents of slurry pit manure in the control were greater than those of slurry pit manure in the CRPS treatment (p<0.05). Electrical conductivity and pH contents did not differ among treatments. The biological oxygen demand of the slurry pit treatment was greater than that of the other treatments (p<0.05). Total nitrogen, total phosphorus, and ammonia nitrogen contents of the slurry pit treatment were greater than those of other treatments (p<0.05). Odor intensity of the CPRS treatment was lower than that of the control at indoor, exhaust, and outside sampling points (p<0.05). The temperature and carbon dioxide of the CPRS treatment in the pig barn was significantly lower than those of control (p<0.05). All measured odorous material contents of the CPRS group were significantly lower than those of the control group (p<0.05). Conclusion: The CPRS application in pig farms is considered a good option as it continuously reduces the organic load of animal manure and lowers the average odorant concentration below the threshold of detecting odorous materials.

This study was conducted to compare the sensory and enzymatic properties of Israeli carp Cyprinus carpio muscle (ICM) according to size [normal large (NLF) and small fish (NSF)], part [ventral (VM) and dorsal muscles (DM)], and commercial value [NLF, recessive (RF), or deformed fish (DF)]. There was not difference in salty of all samples. The sourness was stronger in NLF and DM than in NSF, RF, and DF, and VM, respectively. The umami of ICM showed no size-associated differences; however, those of DM, and DF and RF, were superior to those of the VM and NLF, respectively. The sweetness was also stronger in NLF than in NSF and RF, and in DM than VM. The sweetness of DF didn't differ compared to those of NLF and RF. The intensity of fish odor was weaker in NSF or DF than that in NLF, and was higher in DM than in VM. The color of ICM was bright in NSF and DF compared to NLF. Enzyme activity was very low in the muscles and high in viscera. Therefore, ICM could be used as a material for seafood products, regardless of size, part, and commercial value; however, the issue of lipid oxidation must be considered.

In this study, the emission patterns of reduced sulfur compounds (RSC) were investigated using four different types of food samples (boiled egg, milk, canned meat and strawberry) between fresh and decaying stages. To this end, the concentrations of RSCs were measured at storage days of 0, 1, 3, 6, and 9 under room temperature. Four sulfur compounds ($H_2S$, $CH_3SH$, DMS and DMDS) were selected as target compounds along with two reference compounds ($CS_2$ and $SO_2$). Their concentrations were quantified using GC-PFPD equipped with thermal desorption (TD) system. The boiled egg showed the highest concentration of $H_2S$ (3,655 ppb) at D-1, while $CH_3SH$ reached its maximum value of 64.4~78.5 ppb after 3 days. In milk samples, concentration of $CH_3SH$, DMS, and DMDS went up to 487, 16.3, and 578 ppb, respectively with the progress of decay (D-9). In case of canned meat, concentration of $H_2S$ and $CH_3SH$ peaked in the beginning (D-0) such as 345 and 66.6 ppb. In case of strawberry, $CH_3SH$ and DMDS showed the maximum concentrations 135 and 50.5 ppb at D-1, respectively. The olfactometry dilution-to-threshold (D/T) ratio by air dilution sensory (ADS) test showed similar patterns when sum of odor intensity (SOI) was derived via conversion of odorant concentration data. The results of this study confirm that the time of strong RSC emissions is distinguished for each food type between fresh (e.g., strawberries) and decaying conditions (e.g., milk).

This study investigated the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of yanggaeng prepared with various amounts of Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten powder (as ratios of 1%, 3%, 5%, 7% to the total materials). According to the results, the pH of yanggaeng decreased significantly with the addition of Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten powder (p<0.001). Increasing the amount of Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten powder in the yanggaeng tended to increased $^{\circ}Brix$ value (p<0.01). For color values, lightness (L) values were reduced by increasing the amount of Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten powder, redness (a) and yellowness (b) while values were increased significantly (p<0.001). Texture measurement scores in terms of hardness, springness, and Adhesiveness for yanggaeng showed that sample groups were lower than those of the control group. Cohesivene and chewiness were higher in the additive group than in the control group. Antioxidant activities, evaluated by DPPH radical scavenging capacity, Nitrites cavenging activity, and total phenolic substances content increased when increased the amount of Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten powder (p<0.001). Results of descriptive analysis showed that by increasing the amount of Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten powder, some attributes such as the intensity of the color, sweet, hardness and chewiness increased (p<0.01). It concluded that yanggaeng containing Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten can be prepared with good sensory properties and antioxidant activities, and the addition of 3% Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten powder was found to be ideal. Sensory evaluation scores in terms of color, odor, taste, texture, and overall preference of groups with 3% of Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten powder did not show any significant differences when compared to the control group. Based on the above results, this study suggests that the addition of 3% Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten powder may be the best substitution ratio for yanggaeng.

The surge in online seafood consumption has increased parcel delivery, leading to a need to implement effective preservation methods. As the cold chain system is not fully established in Korea, styrofoam boxes and cold packs are commonly used for low-temperature seafood distribution. The impact of cold packs on product preservation depends on the number utilized. Herein, the freshness of vacuum-packed frozen fish fillets (Paralichthys olivaceus and Scomber japonicus) stored at 25±0.5℃ for up to 84 h was measured. Chemical (pH and volatile base nitrogen), microbiological (viable cell count), and physical (odor intensity) properties were assessed using 2 or 4 cold packs in a styrofoam box. Four cold packs yielded lower values, indicating superior freshness, and extended fish freshness by approximately 12 h compared with two cold packs. Therefore, it is recommended to use a minimum of 4 cold packs (-350 g/cold pack) in a styrofoam box for distributing approximately 300 g of frozen fish fillets at room temperature during the summer, considering an average delivery period of 2 days in Korea.

To evaluate the effect of Ulmus davidiana powder on rice dasik, Ulmus davidiana dasik was made after supplementation with Ulmus davidiana powder(0, 3, 6, 9 and 12%(all w/w)). The proximate component of Ulmus davidiana powder was 7.49% moisture content, 2.33% crude protein, 0.84% crude fat, 14.09% crude fiber and 8.50% crude ash. The moisture content of samples were significantly(p<0.05) lower than that of dasiks with Ulmus davidiana powder. The pH values were significantly decreased with increased Ulmus davidiana powder(p<0.05). The lightness(L-value) was significantly decreased as Ulmus davidiana powder increased(p<0.05). Redness(a-value) of dasik with Ulmus davidiana powder was significantly higher than that of the control group. However redness was decreased with the amount of increased Ulmus davidiana powder. The yellowness(b-value) decreased significantly as Ulmus davidiana powder increased(p<0.05). In the mechanical evaluation, hardness in the groups with Ulmus davidiana powder increased significantly(p<0.05). Adhesiveness of the control group was lower than that of the groups with Ulmus davidiana powder. Springness in the control group was lower than that in the groups with Ulmus davidiana powder. But no significant difference in cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness among groups was found. The intensity of color, odor and astringency of dasik with Ulmus davidiana powder significantly increased as the amount of supplementation increased(p<0.05). And the preference of flavor with 12% Ulmus davidiana powder was significantly lower than that of the control group. In conclusion, rice dasik with less than 9% of Ulmus davidiana powder would be most proper in taste and overall acceptability.

Thai-Native×Anglo-Nubian goat meat cooked by grilling (GR), sous vide (SV), and microwave (MW), was compared to fresh meat (Raw) in terms of flavor development. Non-volatile [i.e., free amino acids, nucleotide-related compounds, taste active values (TAVs) and umami equivalency, sugars, lipid oxidation, Maillard reaction products] and volatile compounds, were investigated. Notably, inosine monophosphate and Glu/Gln were the major compounds contributing to umami taste, as indicated by the highest TAVs in all samples. Raw had higher TAVs than cooked ones, indicating that heat-cooking removes these desirable flavor and taste compounds. This could be proportionally associated with the increase in aldehyde, ketone, and nitrogen-containing volatiles in all cooked samples. GR showed the highest thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (1.46 mg malonaldehyde/kg sample) and browning intensity (0.73), indicating the greatest lipid oxidation and Maillard reaction due to the higher temperature among all cooked samples (p<0.05). In contrast, SV and Raw exhibited similar profiles, indicating that low cooking temperatures preserved natural goat meat flavor, particularly the goaty odor. The principal component analysis biplot linked volatiles and non-volatiles dominant for each cooked sample to their unique flavor and taste. Therefore, these findings shed light on cooking method selection based on desirable flavor and preferences.
