This study assessed the microbiological hazards of gloves worn during the shell shucking process of the oyster Crassostrea gigas, and we suggest an in situ method for minimizing microbial contamination. The study consisted of two groups, one in which the working gloves were periodically replaced (PRG) with new gloves, and another in which the gloves were not replaced (NRG). In the PRG group, gloves were replaced every 2 h during 8 h of processing. Food pathogenic bacteria Escherichia coli, Salmonella species, and Listeria monocytogenes were not found in any samples, including gloves and shucked oysters. However, Staphylococcus aureus (SA) was detected in some samples, and the contamination levels were correlated with the working time and the regular replacement of gloves. SA was not detected on gloves or oysters of the PRG group. However, it was detected in the range of <$15CFU/15cm^2$ to $2.9{\times}10^2CFU/15cm^2$ on gloves after 6 h of continuous work, and from <$15CFU/15cm^2$ to $2.23{\times}10^2CFU/15cm^2$ on oysters after 8 h. These results indicate that the SA contamination in shucked oysters originated from the working gloves, and that replacement of working gloves every 2-4 h will minimize SA contamination in oyster products.

This study investigated the IGF-1 signal in specific tissues using Pacific oysters artificially matured via water temperature elevation. Pacific oysters were subjected to water temperature elevation from March to June, and 20 were randomly sampled each month. The condition index (CI) and tissue weight rate (TWR) were examined by measuring shell length, shell height, shell width, and soft tissue weight. The IGF-1 signal in tissues (adductor muscle, digestive glands, gills, labial palps, mantle edges, and gonads) was analyzed by sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and Western blotting. From April to June, the TWR of females and males increased from 19.1±2.9 to 21.0±3.6 and 18.2±2.0 to 19.2±2.5, respectively, while the CI remained the same. The IGF-1 signal in each tissue differed. IGF-1 was expressed in the adductor muscle, while tyrosine was expressed in all tissues. The phosphor (p)-ERK and p-AKT activities were high in the adductor muscle, mantle edge, and gonads. IGF-1 signaling affected the growth and maturity of the Pacific oysters examined.

Butyltin and phenyltin residues were quantified in seawater and biota of the Chinhae Bay System, Korea in 1995. Butyltin compounds were detected in all seawater and biota samples, whereas phenyltin compounds were found only in the biota samples. Tributyltin (TBT) concentrations in seawater ranged from < 8-35 ng Sn/l. Tributyltin concentrations in Crassostyea gigas and Thais clavigera ranged from 95-885 and 23-414 ng Sn/g, respectively, Triphenyltin(TPhT) concentrations in each species ranged 155-678 and 46-785 ng Sn/g, respectively. Spatial distribution of TBT was closely related to boating and dry-docking activities. However, spatial distribution of TPhT was not consistent with that of TBT. The biological concentration factor for TBT in C. gigas was about 25000 that is four times greater than that of T. clavigera. Butyl- to phenyltin concentration ratio was greater than one in C. gigas, but that in T. clavigera was less than one. Major tissues of C. gigas also showed different accumulation patterns for butyl- and phenyltin compounds. Furthermore, 19 and 28% of total body burdens of TBT and TPhT were found in gonadal mass of C. gigas just prior to spawning.

이매패류의 소화맹낭은 고도로 발달된 리소솜 시스템을 지니고 있어 소화작용과 함께 오염물질의 해독과 배출작용을 담당한다. 따라서 소화맹낭의 리소솜 시스템은 환경변화에 민감하게 반응한다고 알려져 있다. 이 연구에서는 동결절편을 이용한 조직학적 방법으로 조간대에 서식하는 참굴 소화맹낭의 리소솜 활동을 측정하였다. 참굴은 2010년 6월 광양만 내만의 초남대교, 차면리와 외만의 신덕리, 평산리 조간대에 서식하는 굴을 채집하였다. 제작된 동결절편을 이용하여 lysosomal membrane stability(LMS) 및 lipofuscin(LF) 축적, neutral lipid(NL) 축적, 소화맹낭 위축도(digestive gland atrophy, DGA)를 평가하였다. 비만도 및 소화맹낭 위축도는 내만에 서식하는 참굴이 다른 지역에 비해 유의적으로 낮았다(P<0.05). LMS는 내만이 외만에 비해 짧은 리소솜 막 불안정화 시간을 보였지만 지역별 통계적인 유의차는 없었다. LF 축적은 내만에 서식하는 참굴이 유의적으로 높은 축적을 보였지만(P<0.05), NL 축적의 경우 외만에 서식하는 참굴이 유의적으로 높은 축적을 보였다(P<0.05). DGA와 LF의 경우 내만과 외만에서 뚜렷한 차이를 보였고, 이는 환경오염의 수준과 관련 있을 것으로 사료된다. 따라서 이 두 가지 분석항목은 연안환경평가에서 좋은 biomarker로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Pacific oysters Crassostrea gigas are a popular shellfish in the Republic of Korea. However, due to their abundant moisture and nutrient content, oysters are susceptible to microbiological growth and biochemical changes, which lead to quality degradation. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) in maintaining the quality of raw oysters during storage. Microbiological and physicochemical parameters such as pH, glycogen content, soluble protein, turbidity, and volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) were analyzed for oysters stored under various gas compositions and storage periods. The results showed that there was no significant increase in viable cell count in MAP oysters after six days in MAP oysters. Moreover, the physicochemical quality of non-MAP oysters deteriorated rapidly, whereas the quality of MAP oysters were maintained during storage. This study suggests that MAP can be an effective technique for maintaining the freshness of raw oysters during distribution and storage, and may also be useful for extending the shelf-life and maintaining the quality of other seafood products.

To evaluate the culture conditions in oyster-farming waters, chemical and biological measurements were made in seawater and oysters from six bays around Tongyeong in November and December 2003. Nutrient levels in the seawater were higher in the western area than in the eastern area, in contrast to particulate organic matter and dissolved oxygen levels. The mean total polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon ({\sum}PAH) content of the oysters was 194.5-375.9 ng/g dry weight, with four-ring compounds constituting 34.1%-79.6% of PAH. Despite wide temporal variations, a "western > eastern" spatial distribution of PAH was apparent. These low concentrations of PAHs indicate that Tongyeong waters are pristine in terms of PAH contamination. Among the hemocytic biomarkers, only lysosomal activity was significantly reduced in Hansan-Goje Bay, but did not correlate closely with PAH content. This finding indicates that the impact of PAH on cultured oysters is negligible around Tongyeong waters.

(1) 통영시 관내 북만해역의 굴양식장군의 8개 조사양식장에서 $1994\~1996$년까지 매월 1회씩 굴 시료를 채취하여 양식굴의 집단생태학적 특성치를 조사하고, 굴 육질의 지방산조성을 분석하여 얻은 자료를 토대로, DHA 함량조성과 굴의 집단생태학적인 몇가지 특성간의 관련성을 검토하였다. (2) 굴의 지질중 DHA 함량조성은 연중 $0\~25\%$ 범위로 변동하였으며, 6월에 최저치를 나타내었고, 11월에 최고치를 나타내었다. (3) DHA함량조성과 굴의 사망계수 및 성장계수와의 사이에는 관련성이 나타나지 않았다. (4) 11월의 DHA 함량조성과 수확시 개체군의 크기사이에는 강한 (+)상관성이 인정되었고, 수확시 개체육 중량과의 사이에는 (-)상관성이 인정되었다. (5) 굴에 있어서 DHA는 산란기에 생식소의 성숙과 방출에 에너지원으로 다량 소모되는 것으로 보이며, 북만해역에서 11월의 DHA 함량조성은 수확시의 집단크기의 선행지수로 사용해 봄직하고, 체중과의 역 관련성을 잘해 석 하면 밀도효과를 유추할 수 있을 것으로 고찰되었다.

Shucked oysters were soaked in an equal weight of salt water and stored at $3^{\circ}C$ for 7 days. Changes in the free amino acid content of the whole body and in the adductor muscle were evaluated by a practical distribution method. With the exception of aspartic acid and tyrosine, no significant changes in free amino acids or ammonia were observed in whole-body shucked oysters during the storage period. In contrast, the majority of free amino acids in the adductor muscle decreased significantly. Most of these free amino acids were detected in considerable amounts in the surrounding salt water after 7 days of storage. Both the weight of the whole body and the salinity of the surrounding salt water decreased significantly during the storage period. These results suggest that free amino acids were eluted from the cutting surface of the adductor muscle and indicate that the free amino acid content per shucked oyster and in the adductor muscle, decreases during cold storage.
