In this paper, proteolytic activity of the tissue extracts from the internal organs such as alimentary canal, pancreas, pyloric caeca, stomach, liver and spleen of mackerel, Scomber japonicus, and sardine, Sardinops melanosticta, was compared with each other under the optimum reaction condition. The proteinases distributed in alimentary canal, pancreas, pyloric caeca and spleen were active in alkaline pH range, but those in stomach were shown the activity in acid pH range, furthermore those in liver were exhibited the activity in acid, neutral and alkaline pH range. The proteinases distributed in the internal organs of both fish were stable at the heat treatment of $45^{\circ}C$ for 5 minutes. The proteinases from stomach and pyloric caeca of the two fish and those from pancreas of sardine were less stable than those from any other internal organs of both fish. Whereas the proteinases from spleen and neutral proteinases from liver were shown to be stable by the heat treatment at $55^{\circ}C$ for 5 minutes. The proteinases from pyloric caeca of both fish, and stomach, pancreas and spleen of mackerel were stable during the whole storage days at $5^{\circ}C$, but the other proteinases were slowly inactivated after 14 days of storage. The enzymes were seemed to be more stable in the storage at $-15^{\circ}C$ than at $5^{\circ}C$.

Candida lipolytica(C. lipolytica) FM5 was selected as one of the strong saprophytic yeasts isolated from mackerel (Scomber japonicus). The selected strain could produce extracellular proteolytic enzyme. The effective medium for production of proteolytic enzyme by C. lipolytica FM5 was TPPY broth containing Bacto-tryptone $0.5\%$, proteose peptone $0.5\%$, yeast extract $0.25\%$, NaCl $0.5\%$ and $CaCl_2\;0.2\%$. The pattern of proteolytic enzyme production by C. lipolytica FM5 was the almost same as that of growth curve of the strain. Namely, the enzyme production was begun from the early stage of exponential phase and it was reached the highest at the begining of the stationary phase of the yeast growth. The optimum toeperature of the produced proteolytic enzyme was $35^{\circ}C$ and its activity was not significantly changed by pH between 6.5$\~$9.0 and also it was not significantly affected by several kinds of cations such as $Ca^{2+},\;Cu^{2+},\;Fe^{2+}$ and $Mg^{2+}$ but it was affected negatively by some cations such as $Zn^{2+},\;Mn^{2+}$ and $K^+$.

The antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of grapefruit seed extract(GFSE), which was extracted with glycerine in the special schematic extraction apparatus, were investigated for handling and processing of fishery products. The effectivity of GFSE has been tried on sardine, mackerel and shrimp divided into six lots for each fishery product: control(no treatment) and five GFSE-treated samples. Samples were inoculated with Salmenella typhi, incubated for 24hrs at $30^{\circ}C$ in dextrose-tryptone broth medium and prepared for microbiological 8f chemical analysis and organoleptic assessment. The bacteriological analytical results with GFSE(250ppm) showed the reduction of $1.8\times10^6\to2.0\times10^4,\;1.9\times10^6\to1.8\times10^4$ and $1.6\times10^6\to2.7\times10^3$ in total bacterial count for sardine, mackerel and shrimp, respectively. The test results with GFSE(500ppm) showed a $100\%$ reduction of bacterial mackerel treated with GFSE(500ppm) was reduced to $1.1\times10^4$ and $9.0\times10^3$ respectively. Antioxidant effect of treatment with GFSE at 500ppm level for three products was significant. LSD test results on organoleptic parameter for the samples treated with various showed a significant influence on the appearance, odor and texture in which at concentration 500ppm level give the excellent scours compared to each control.

The authors carried out an experiment to investigate the responsive behavior of sea eel, Astroconger myriaster(BREVOORT) to chemical stimuli. The experimental tank was made in doughnut type by using FRP plates. The channel of tank was divided into three concentric troughs by using perforated plastic plates. The inside trough was used as influent part, the outside one as effluent part, and the middle one as the testing trough in which testing fish may be swimmable. The influent part was radially portioned into 12 sections so as to be 30 degrees of central angle. But a basin of any section in testing trough was diverged in the range of 45 degrees of central angle. The the testing trough are radially divided into eight zones. Water is supplied at the rate of 6.3l per minute from the central water tank set as high as 50cm in the center of doughnut, passed across the influent part, testing trough, effluent part and finally discharged by overflow pipes. The chemical substance to stimulate the sea eel was extracted from mackerel, shad and krill which are used as bait for fishing. The chemical substance was injected into any one of 12 hoses which supplies water from central water tank to the influent part at the rate of 2ml per minute. Sea eels used for the experiment were caught by pot in the coast of Chung-mu and accustomed to the tanks for 5 days before applying them to the experiment. The result obtained are as follows: 1. The rate of time length of sea eel's staying in the stimulated zone, as the extracts of mackerel, shad and krill were given to it, was observed as 7.9%, 30.9% and 11.4% respectively. It means that the extract from shad was the most effective of three in attracting sea eel. 2. To compare the effect of freshness of bait fish, the extracts were prepared from shad just killed, form the 24 hour-lapsed one and from the 48 hour-lasped one after killed. The rate of time length of sea eel's staying in the stimulated zone was 30.9%, 17.1% and 11.3% respectively. It means that the freshness is much effective in attracting olfactory fishes like sea eel.

The chemical composition of fish feeds(mackerel, gizzard shad, shrimp and formula feed) were analyzed and compared with those of untreated and irradiated (5 kGy) feeds, and the effects of gamma irradiation (5 kGy) and butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA, 200ppm) on feeds spoilage were investigated by determination of thiobarbituric acid (TBA) value and peroxide value for 14 days at $20^{\circ}C$, $4^{\circ}C$ or $-20^{\circ}C$. Crude protein, crude lipid, crude fiber, crude ash and nitrogen free extract were not significantly changed by gamma irradiation with the dose of 5 kGy. Immediately gamma irradiation increased the initiative oxidation of feeds as expected. But BHA was found to be greatly effective in minimizing the radiation-induced peroxidation (p<0.05). The TBA value and peroxide value increased with the elapse of the storage period. The level of lipid oxidation was increased depending on the rise in storage temperature. But the additions of BHA inhibited the lipid oxidation (p<0.05).

Apparent digestibility coefficients (ADCs) of dry matter, crude protein, crude lipid, nitrogen-free extract, energy and essential amino acids in animal-based feed ingredients were determined for olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus). A reference diet (RF) was formulated to contain 1.0% chromic oxide (Cr₂O₃) as an inert indicator. Nine test diets were formulated to contain RF and one of the feed ingredients (pollock meal [PM], jack mackerel meal [JMM], anchovy meal [AM], cod meal [CM], sardine meal [SM], sand eel meal [SEM], tuna meal [TM], meat meal [MM] and squid liver meal [SLM]) at a 7:3 ratio in each diet designated as PM, JMM, AM, CM, SM, SEM, TM, MM and SLM, respectively. Olive flounder, averaging 150 ± 8.0 g, were stocked at a density of 25 fish per tank in 400-L fiberglass tanks attached with fecal collection columns. Feces were collected from triplicate groups of fish one time a day for four weeks. Dry matter and crude protein ADCs of CM and SEM were significantly higher than the other tested ingredients. Lipid ADCs of JMM, CM and SEM were significantly higher than the other test ingredients. Energy ADCs of CM and SEM were significantly higher than that of the other tested ingredients. The availability of amino acids in CM was generally higher than the other animal protein sources. PM exhibited the lowest amino acid availability among the treatments. Interestingly, MM exhibited significantly higher nutrient digestibility than several marine-based ingredients. However, CM and SEM are seeming to be highly digestible and effective to use in olive flounder diet compared to the other tested ingredients. Overall, the results of this study provide information about the bioavailability of nutrients and energy in animal feedstuffs to apply when formulating cost-effective practical feeds for olive flounder.

The purpose of this research is to separate and quantitate selenium species in some food samples with HPLC-ICP-MS. Cation exchange chromatography showed efficient separation only for inorganic Se species while reversed phase ion pair chromatography showed good separation for both inorganic and organic Se species. $C_8$ column ($Symmetryshield^{TM}\;RP_8$, 3.5 ${\mu}m$, $4.6{\times}150$ mm) was used with optimum condition of 5% methanol mobile phase, 0.05% of nonafluorovaleric acid ion pairing reagent. Five standard Se species of Se(IV), Se(VI), SeCys(selenocystein), SeMet(selenomethionine) and Se-M-C(seleno methyl cystein) were separated successfully under the optimum condition (mobile phase; 5% methanol, ion-pairing reagent; 0.05% nonafluorovaleric acid, flow rate; 0.9 mL $min^{-1}$). To extract Se species, microwave assisted and enzyme-assisted extraction methods were studied. In enzyme-assisted extraction method, protease I for garlic, protease I plus trypsin for pork and mackerel, and protease XIV for tuna showed the best extraction efficiency. With the optimum condition for each sample, it was found that mostly inorganic Se, SeCys and SeMet are present in the sample studied ranging from few ${\mu}g$ $g^{-1}$ to few tens of ${\mu}g$ $g^{-1}$.
