This study examined chemical characterization in commercial dark-fleshed fish (mackerel Scomber japonicus, Japanese Spanish mackerel Scomberomorus niphonius, and Pacific herring Clupea pallasii) to determine their suitability for use as raw materials for seafood products. The volatile basic nitrogen (VBN), heavy metal, radioactivity, polychlorinated biphenyl (PCBs), benzo[a]pyrene, and histamine concentrations were measured. The VBN in all of the dark-fleshed fish was less than 20 mg/100 g, which is the limit for raw materials for seafood processing. Except for mackerel based on the lead (Pb) standards of the European Union (EU), Taiwan, and CODEX, and all fish based on the cadmium (Cd) standards for China and the EU, the commercial dark-fleshed fish were free from total mercury (Hg), Pb, and Cd based on domestic and foreign standards. The radioactivity, polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB), benzo[a]pyrene, and histamine concentrations of the commercial dark-fleshed fish all adhered to the domestic and foreign standards. The commercial dark-fleshed fish tested could all be used as raw materials for seafood products, except for some exported products.

Seasonal catch distributions of large purse seines and daily landings of coastal set nets were analyzed to understand the migration path of the Spanish mackerel Scomberomorus niphonius around Korean waters. The Spanish mackerel start to move toward the coastal region in the South and West Sea in May for spawning and stay until July, when spawning finishes. Afterwards, they start to migrate to the East China Sea and the southern East Sea and are found irrespective of the onshore and offshore regions. Therefore, they disappear from the offshore region during the spawning season in June and July, and a new recruitment population of age 0 begins to inflow into the coastal fishing grounds in the South Sea and West Sea in August, one month earlier than in the Japanese coastal region of the East Sea.

This study was used samples, mackerel (Scomber japonicas), Japanese Spanish mackerel (Scomberomorus niphonius), alaska pollock (Theragra chalcogramma), yellow croaker (larimichthys crocea) known as some of the major species fisheries products in Korea We were investigated temperature change during thawing processing, water holding capacity, drip loss, extractive-nitrogen and viable cell count by various thawing methods, thawing at the room temperature (TRT), hot-air thawing (HAT), aeration thawing (AT), high-frequency thawing (HFT). The temperature changes have taken 2~3 hours in HFT and 24 hours by TRT. The expressible drip loss was 0.47~0.87 g/100 g in HFT, 1.91~4.42 g/100g in TRT, 1.31~4.93 g/100g in HAT, and 2.01~4.59 g/100g in AE. The water holding capacity was higher samples thawing by HFT than other thawing methods. Extractive-nitrogen was 276~452 mg/100 g in HFT, 177.21~420.27 mg/100 g in TRT. Viable cell count was $10^2$ to $10^3$ in HFT, $10^3$ to $10^5$ in other thawing methods. The processing speed and uniformity by HFT was minimized the risk of product degradations (drip losses, deterioration of sensorial, chemical and physical characteristics, bacteria growth, etc.), thus helping to preserve at its best the product quality than those by thawing methods. Therefore, HFT was expected to make high-quality thawing products anticipate future thawing technology

This study analyzed the content of eight biogenic amines (BAs), including histamine, in 198 fishery products (121 school-meal products and 77 distributed products) in Korea in 2019. Changes in BA content according to time, temperature, and salt treatment in Japanese Spanish mackerel, chub mackerel, and salmon were also observed. The average histamine content of 198 fishery products was 0.4±2.3 mg/kg, and all were within histamine criteria (200 mg/kg or less). As a result, the margin of exposure (MOE) was calculated to evaluate the risk of fishery products, and school-meal fishery products were evaluated as safe with a MOE of 1 or more. At 30℃, the histamine content of the fish increased rapidly to 144 mg/kg (Japanese Spanish mackerel, 36 h), and 308 mg/kg (chub mackerel, 24 h). When the Japanese Spanish mackerel, chub mackerel, and salmon were stored at 4℃, histamine was not detected for 3 days, and it was not detected for 14 days at -20℃. The BA content (histamines, etc.) of salt-treated Japanese Spanish mackerel and chub mackerel was lower than that of fish not treated with salt.

This study was conducted to evaluate the menu of a Japanese restaurant in a first class tourism hotel. The calculations used for the menu analysis were conducted using MS Excel 2003. Several previous studies have been conducted to analyze menus. For example, Pavesic used of the weighted contribution margins (WCM) and potential food cost (PFC%) to evaluate menus, while Kasavana & Smith used the mix margin (MM%) and unit contribution margin (CM) to evaluate menus. The menu engineering method focused on the customer's viewpoints, while the Cost/Margin analysis method considered the manager's viewpoints. The menus that need continuous keeping Kasavana & Smith (Star) and Pavesic (Standard) included 'Assorted sashimi with side dishes (big), 'Lunch box special', 'Tempura course', 'Broiled Spanish mackerel and side dishes', 'Shrimp tempura', 'Special sushi', 'Seafood Udong', 'Buckwheat noodles'. The results of this study should increase customer satisfaction and profits at the Japanese Restaurant.

This study was assessed the menu satisfaction and preferences of high school boarding students in Gyeongggido. Data collection was carried out through surveys given to 300 high school boarding students; a total of 274 were usable. Statistical analyses were done using the SAS package program (version 8.2 for Windows). The results of this study are summarized as follows: 54.0% of respondents were freshman and 46.0% were sophomores: and 52.9% of respondents were male and 47.1% were female. According to the results of the menu satisfaction survey, males and females significantly differed on appropriate food temperature, freshness of food, harmonic combination of menu, menu variety, quality of ingredients, appearance of food, and frequency of supplied nutrition information. A significant difference regarding menu satisfaction was also found between grade level. First grade students were more satisfied than second grade students. Moreover, menu preferences were significantly high for omelet-rice, fried rice, pork-on-the-bone soup, deep-fried chicken, fruit salad, spicy chinese cabbage salad kimchi, chinese cabbage kimchi, and all desserts. On the other hand, pumpkin and rice porridge, beef and rice porridge, barley rice, soft tofu stew, soybean paste soup, braised japanese spanish mackerel, and sauteed squash were not significantly preferred. The results showed that high school boarding students' menu preferences differed depending on gender, grade, and boarding period. In conclusion, the results of this study should provide dieticians information for improving menu planning. In addition, foodservice satisfaction of the boarding school students can be improved by continuous menu improvement.

Experimental fishing was carried out to investigate the survival rate of fishes discarded after hauling from the trawl and to develop the fishing gear and method for fisheries management which can improve the survival rate of young fishes escaped from the trawl codend in offshore korean southern sea and off Cheju Island of Korea. The young fishes were bred in fish cage on the board to measure the sustainable survival time for fishes escaped from grid panel and codend. The obtained results are summarized as follows' 1. Japanese flying squid(Todarodes pacjficus), mitra squid(Loligo chinesis), hair-tail( Trichiurus lepturus), john dory(Zeus japonicus), spanish mackerel(Scomberomorus niphonius), redlip croaker (Pseudosciaena polyactis) and blackthroat seaperch(Doederliinia berycoides) were dead instantly after hauling. 2. Survival rate of tiger shark(Galeocerdo cuvier), conger eel (Conger myriaster), red skate (Dasyatis akajei), black scraper(Navodon modestus) and japanese fan lobster(Ibacus ciliatus) might be high after discarding because they survived for long hours in fish cage. 3. Blotched eelpout(Zoarces gili) escaped from the escapement device(grid) was dead within 6 hours in the water tank installed on the board but 97% of tiger shark and 72% of conger eel survived over 72 hours. 4. Red skate escaped from trawl codend was dead within 60 hours in the water tank installed on the board but sustainable survival time of 25% of octopus(Paroctopus dofleini) and 100% of black scraper was over 72 hours. 5. Compared with the survival rate of rosefish(Helicolenus higendorfi) escaped from the escapement device(grid) and trawl codend, all of the rosefish escaped from the grid was dead within 7.2 hours but 8.3% of the rosefish escaped from the codend survived over 72 hours. 6. In comparison with the survival rate of japanese fan lobster survived over 72 hours, survival rate of japanese fan lobster escaped the codend was much higher as 75% than 33% of japanese fan lobster escaped from the grid.
