A disease that manifested severe anemia of the gills occurred in the olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus), which was cultured for 5-6 months with a recirculation water system in the laboratory. Microscopic observations showed immature parasite in the gills and mature adults in the oral cavity. The matured parasite was 5.60-9.32 (7.42) mm in total length, with 4 pairs of clamps on the pedunculated haptor, which was separated from the body proper by a long isthmus. From the morphological observations of the larvae, it was identified as Neoheterobothirum hirame belonging to the monogenea. The average hematocrite of infected fish was 10.3 ± 2.8%, significantly lower than that of normal flounder 31.4 ± 4.2%. Histopathologically, fish infected with N. hirame exhibited reduced numbers of erythrocytes in blood vessels of the gill filament and lamellae, reduced red pulp area of the spleen, and hepatocyte atrophy. From the above results, the cause of severe anemia in olive flounder was identified as N. hirame infection. This study shows an example where the growth of pathogens can be a problem in the recirculation system due to low water exchange rate.

Angiotensin converting enzyme(ACE) inhibitory activity of Kimchi added with salted-fermented fish products(SFFP), such as salted-fermented anchovy(SFA), salted-fermented anchovy sauce(SFAS), low salt-fermented anchovy sauce(LSFAS), salted-fermented small shrimp(SFS), low salt-fermented sandlance sauce(LSFSS) and their alternatives, such as oyster hydrolysate(OH), Alaska pollack hydrolysate(APH) and sea-staghorn extract(SSE) were studied during fermentation at $20^{\circ}C,\;10^{\circ}C\;and\;4^{\circ}C$. ACE inhibitory activities of Kimchi samples added with SFFP were increased until some fermentation period and then kept similarly constant levels at every fermentation temperature. Similar tendencies were occurred in amino nitrogen (AN) content. ACE inhibitory activities of Kimchi samples added with SFFP alternatives rapidly increased in 1st or 2nd day fermentation and then very slowly increased but AN contents showed roughly constant levels $(400{\sim}600\;mg/100\;g)$ in every fermentation temperature. Kimchi added with LSFAS had higher ACE inhibitory activity (>80%) with elevated level of AN (>600 mg/100 g) among the tested Kimchi samples. Kimchi samples added with SFFP alternatives also showed comparable activity to Kimchi added with SFFP This study shows that Kimchi added with SFFP and their alternatives is a good source as a functional food.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the change of hematology and serum chemistry values on Sprague-Dawley rats, while used krill (Euphausia superba) meal diet for 5 weeks. Seven-week-old male rats were divided into four groups (n=6) and fed experimental diets containing three different krill meal contents and control group; 10.0% krill meal (G10), 20.0% krill meal (G20), 30.0% krill meal (G30), and control group (GC). Concentrations of non-esterified fatty acid (NEFA), blood urea nitrogen (BUN) in serum were significantly lower in the G10, G20, G30 than GC group (p<0.05). Statistically significant differences, at the confidence level of 95%, for the creatinine, uric acid, electrolyte (T-Ca) parameters in the sera were observed in G20 group, G30 group. The concentration of electrolyte (Pi) in serum was no significant difference among the groups (p<0.05). The results indicate that a krill meal diet was effectively reduce the NEFA.

The patterns of fatty acid composition of lipid extracted from eight species of edible marine benthic algae; i. e. two species of green, five of brown and one of red algae, were investigated quantitatively by using gas liquid chromatography. The total lipid contents in average of the algae were $1.51\%$ in the green algae, $2.81\%$ in brown algae and $1.02\%$ in red algae respectively. Upon analyzing fatty acid composition, green algae contained the highest proportion of $C_{16:0}$ acid and comparatively higher content of $C_{18:1},\;C_{18:2}\;and\;C_{18:3}$ acids than the other algae. In brown angae, $C_{16:0}$ acid content was highest, but not more than that of green algae, and $C_{14:0},\;C_{18:1}$ acids were higher than other $C_{16:1},\;C_{18:2}\;and\;C_{18:3}$ acids while the content of $C_{18:0}$ acid was very low. Red algae showed low content of $C_{14:0},\;C_{18:1},\;C_{18:2}\;and\;C_{18:3}$ acids, but the content of $C_{16:0}$ acid was high as a major component. In regard to the composing patterns of carbon number of fatty acid of algae; i. e. $C_{14},\;C_{15},\;C_{16},\;C_{18}\;and\;C_{22}$ and $C_{22}$ acids, the green algae contained $C_{16}$ and $C_{18}$ acids, the brown algae $C_{16},\;C_{18},\;and\;C_{22}$ and $C_{22}$ acids, and the red algae $C_{15},\;C_{16}$, and $C_{18}$ acids as the major component.

A 10-week feeding experiment was conducted to determine the influence of several minerals from dietary mineral premix on growth and body composition in juvenile Korean rockfish. Three replicate groups of fish Initially averaging 4.2 g were fed one of the ten experimental diets. Korean rockfish muscle and casein as protein sources were used in the basal diet, and deleted one of each mineral (P, Ca, Zn, Mg, Fe, K, Mn, Se or all) in the control mineral premix, Weight gain, feed efficiency and nutrient retention in fish fed the diet not containing mineral premix were significantly lower than those in fish fed other diets (P<0.01). Weight gain in fish fed the diets deleted each mineral (P, Ca, Zn, Hg, Fe, K, Mn or Se) was lower than that of control diet (P<0.01), Feed efficiency and protein retention in fish fed the diets deleted each of P, Ca, Zn or Mn were lower than those ot control diet (P<0.01). Daily feed intake and lipid retention were not affected by dietary mineral premixes ( P>0.01). Proximate analysis and mineral contents in the whole body, muscle, liver or bone of fish fed the diets deleted each mineral were not different to control diet ( P>0.01). The data obtained in this study indicate that each of the P, Ca, Zn, Mg, Fe, K, Mn or Se is essential for normal growth of Korean rockfish.

An 18-week growth trial was conducted in flow-through aquarium system to investigate the effects of several additives in formulated diets on the growth and body composition of juvenile abalone (Haliotis discus hannai). Four replicate groups of abalone averaging 150 mg were fed one of four isonitrogenous ($33.8\%$) and isolipidic ($5.8\%$) diets containing $5\%$ squid meal, $0.5\%$ attractant, $1\%$ herb or $0.5\%$ lecithin. In addition, these formulated diets were compared to commercial diet. Survival rate and shell growth of abalone were not significantly affected by the different dietary additives and commercial diet (P>0.1). Body weight gain of abalone fed the diet containing herb was higher than those of abalone fed the diets containing squid meal or lecithin and commercial diet (P<0.1). Moisture, protein, lipid and ash contents of soft body were not influenced by dietary additives and commercial diet (P>0.1). The results suggest that herb as additive in this formulated diet can improve weight gain of abalone.

A 15-week feeding trial was conducted to investigate the effect of formulated diet or macroalgae (Undaria pinnatifida) on the survival, growth and body composition of juvenile abalone (Haliotis discus hannai) under the different rearing environmental conditions (four shelter types and two water temperatures). Water temperature was maintained to $16.4^{\circ}C$ by heated and $13.7^{\circ}C$ by not heated natural sea water. The survival rate, weight gain and shell growth of abalone were affected by diet and water temperature (P<0.001). Survival rate of abalone fed the formulated diets was higher than that of abalone fed the Undaria pinnatifida at natural sea water (P<0.05), but this value was not influenced within abalone stocked at heated sea water in each shelter group (P>0.05). Weight and shell growth of abalone fed the formulated diets were significantly higher than those of abalone fed the Undaria pinnatifida at each temperature or shelter (P<0.05). Moisture, lipid and ash contents of the soft body were mainly affected by feeding diet than temperature or shelter (P<0.05). This study indicate that formulated diet used in this experiment could improve the growth of abalone independent of water temperature or shelter. and heated water could show a better growth of abalone in winter season.

Ecological study of the Cynoglossus joyneri was conducted based on the specimens from the western coast of Korea from 1992 to 1994. Ecological characteristics of this species such as gonadal development, occurrence of larvae, stomach contents, and environmental conditions were investigated. Few larvae of Cynoglossus joyneri occurred in Kunsan coast. This coast is influenced by the freshwater input of the Mangyong and Kum River, especially during the summer. Therefore, the larvae of C. joyneri were considered to be spawned and grown during their early life stage in the high saline water in outer bay. Spawning occur from June to September, having the peak spawning period from July to August. Biological minimum size of matured fishes containing mature oocytes is about 143.5mm in total length, which requires about 20 months after hatching. The ranges of total length by age are as follows : 0-ring group(floating stage), 30~70mm ; 1-ring group, 49.0~133.0mm 2-ring group, 128.6~167.0mm ; 3-ring group, 169.0~202.0mm ; 4-ring group, 200.7~240.0mm. The major food items of young fish under 8cm were copepods and invertebrate larvae, and those of adult fishes were annelids(polychaets) in winter, and bivalves and shrimps in summer and autumn. Therefore, it can be assumed that the population of C. joyneri could be reduced due to the decrease of food organisms caused by the continuous reclamation activities in the inner bays of the west coast of Korea.
