Two feeding trials were conducted to investigate the effects of several dietary additives on growth and feed utilization of juvenile flounder. In the first experiment, three replicate groups of juveniles (average weight 1.5 g) were fed diets with or without wasabi extract and chitosan for 7 weeks. Survival rate, weight gain, protein efficiency ratio, hepatosomatic index and condition factor were not affected by the different dietary additives (P>0.05). Feed efficiency of fish fed the wasabi extract diet was significantly higher than that of fish fed the control diet (P<0.05). Daily feed intake of fish fed the wasabi extract diet was significantly lower than that of fish fed the other diets (P<0.05). In the second experiment, three replicate groups of juveniles (average weight 1.4 g) were fed diets with or without Pophyra powder for 7 weeks. Survival rate and weight gain were not significantly affected by dietary Pophyra powder (P>0.05). Feed efficiency and protein efficiency ratio of fish fed the Pophyra diet were significantly lower than those of fish fed the control diet (P<0.05). The results of these experiments suggest that feed efficiency of juvenile flounder may be improved by dietary supplementation with wasabi extract.

The purpose of this study was to process extraction and separation for polyglucose porpyran from pophyra yezoensis as high yield. The acidic porphyran solution was extracted with 0.1~1N of ${\alpha},{\beta}$-dichloromaleic acid or ${\alpha}$-chloromaleic acid of 2% solution as organic acid instead of inorganic acid at $60^{\circ}C$ and then porphyran was collection of high yield to acidic solution and it was neutralization treated with 0.1N of $d-Ca(OH)_2$ solution and the mixture was conversion to porphyran salt form and treated with a shell powder of ouster and then added of ethanol as precipitator. It recovery porphyran contained of violet purple laver coloring matter was obtained as a crystalline and used for the next step without future purification to prepare of porphyran laver jam. so, The resulting porphyran and porphyran jam was characterized by it component and physical properties.
