Physicochemical and sensory properties of Kakdugi prepared with fermented northern sand lance sauce(Kakdugi-N) were compared with those of fermented anchovy sauce(Kakdugi-A) or shrimp(Kakdugi-S) through pH, acidity, reducing sugar content, color, microbial counts, TPA and sensory evaluation. The salt concentrations were similar among the treatments ranging 1.9 to 2.3%. Greater decrease in pH and reducing sugar content, and greater increase in acidity were observed in Kakdugi prepared with three kinds of fermented fish sauce than control. The greatest decrease in pH and reducing sugar content but the highest increase in acidity and lactobacilli counts were observed in Kakdugi-S, followed by Kakdugi-N and Kakdugi-A. Fermentation pattern of Kakdugi-N was similar to that of Kakdugi-A. The Hunter color L, a and b values increased gradually until day 11 and then decreased, and the a and b values of Kakdugi-N were similar to those of Kakdugi-A. The hardness and fracturability of Kakdugi determined by texture analyser, decreased during fermentation. Sensory evaluation showed that the score of overall acceptability was the highest in Kakdugi-S, followed by Kakdugi-N and Kakdugi-A.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the preferred methods for making summer kimchi as a basic research of making commercial kimchi. Questionnaire were collected from 590 housewives nationwide in Korea, and the data were analyzed by SPSS program. The results were as follows: (1) The average salting time of Chinese cabbage was 3~5 hrs when the combined method of dry and brine salting was used, regardless of the region. (2) Seven jeotkals (salt-fermented fishes) including anchovy, anchovy juice, shrimp, northern sand lance juice, hair-tail viscera, flatfish and yellow corvenia were mainly used in kimchi. Among them, anchovy and anchovy juice jeotkals were preferred to all others in Southern area (Busan, Gwangju, Gyeongnam, Gyeongbuk, Jeonnam), while shrimp jeotkal in Seoul, Gwangju, Jeonbuk, Chungnam and Jeju, and northern sand lance juice jeotkal in Daegu, Daejeon and Gyeonggi, respectively. In most regions, however, blending type of 2 jeotkals was used in kimchi. (3) Eleven ingredients such as red pepper, garlic, ginger, green onion, radish, leek, onion, carrot, sugar, sesame and MSG were used as basic components for making kimchi. In particular, MSG was used as a basic ingredient regardless of region and age. However, a standard taste for making kimchi was depended on housewife in this study.

To investigate availability of color value as quality standard for grading of salt-fermented fish sauces, the effect of storage period, dilution ratios, additives (glucose, MSG, IMP) and pigments (caramel and tar) on the changes of color value were measured by spectrophotomeky. The highest absorbance was scanned at 453 nm in fish sauces (anchovy and northern sand lance) without regard to storage periods, dilution ratios, pigments and additives. Absorbance at 453 nm was gradually increased during storage in fish sauces, and absorbance of northern sand lance sauce was higher than that of anchovy sauce during fermentation. There were almost no differences according to concentration of additives in fish sauces added additives during storage. But in case of fish sauces added pigments, absorbance increase of fish sauces added tar pigment was faster than that of caramel pigment during storage. The results suggest that color value is inadequate as quality standard for grading of salt-fermented fish sauces.

This study was conducted to understand the quality characteristics of 20 kinds of commercial salt-fermented anchovy & sand lance sauces by measuring their the chemical compositions and 9 biogenic amines (tryptamine, 2-phenylethylamine, putrescin, cadaverine, histamine, tyramine, serotonin, noradrenaline, spermine) contents. The commercial salt-fermented anchovy sauces contained $65.84{\pm}0.11{\sim}70.60{\pm}0.21%$ of moisture, $20.50{\pm}0.41{\sim}25.60{\pm}0.42%$ of salinity, $0.98{\pm}0.01{\sim}2.05{\pm}0.05%$ total nitrogen, and $1,011.77{\pm}0.00{\sim}1,724.56{\pm}9.72mg/100mL$ of amino nitrogen. Histamine was the major amine detected in salt-fermented fish sauces and it was varied from 421.27 to 1,507.18 mg/kg in salt-fermented anchovy sauces, whereas commercial salt-fermented sand lance sauces contained $67.87{\pm}0.28{\sim}69.63{\pm}0.17%$ moisture, $22.46{\pm}0.28{\sim}26.11{\pm}0.00%$ salinity, $0.92{\pm}0.01{\sim}1.71{\pm}0.05%$ total nitrogen, $878.20{\pm}0.00{\sim}1430.09{\pm}9.77mg/100mL$ amino nitrogen and 419.10~1,025.50 mg/kg histamine, respectively. These findings suggest that the products of salt-fermented fish sauces have pretty much the same in ingredient composition and meet domestic criteria but most those had high biogenic amine contents. Therefore, ingredient composition and biogenic amine content of commercial salt-fermented fish sauce products were practicable evaluation of the quality characteristics.

The authors analyzed the daily catch data which were obtained from two different regions at the Southern Sea in Korea, Neungpo, Geoje island and Yangwhagum, Namhae island, during three or four years in 1978, 1981-1985, in order to know the fishing characteristics of the set net fisheries. The favorable fishing season was summer in the southern sea. The total catches during one year were greatly affected by those several day when the dominant species of fish were caught in large quantities. The dominant species of fish at Neungpo were little horse mackerel, sand lance, sardine, hair tail, spanish mackerel and common mackerel, and those at Yangwhagun were anchovy, little horse mackerel, sardine, spanish mackerel and gizzard shad, in order of catch. Especially, the little horse mackerel and the sardine appeared to make up very big schools at both Neungpo and Yangwhagum. The occurrence seasons of the dominant species were different by the region, but generally those were earlier at western part than at eastern part of the Southern Sea in Korea.

S-Adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) is a bioactive material used in the treatment of depression, osteoarthritis, and liver disease. To obtain lactic acid bacteria (LAB) producing high concentrations of SAM, LAB were isolated from commercial kimchi and from prepared kimchi products that contained shrimp jeotgal (fermented salty seafood) or sand lance jeotgal or that were fermented at 5 or $10^{\circ}C$, respectively, when pH was 4.2 to 4.8 and titratable acidity 0.6 to 0.9. Among the 179 LAB strains isolated from the fermented kimchi products, the genus Leuconostoc produced the highest intracellular level of SAM (1.58 mM) and Lactobacillus produced the second highest level (up to 1.47 mM) in the strain culture. This is the first study to quantify SAM in LAB isolated from fermented kimchi prepared by a general kimchi recipe. Ultimately, the selected strains (Leuconostoc mesentroides subsp. mesenteroides/dextranicum KSK417, L. mesentroides subsp. mesenteroides/dextranicum KJM401, and Lactobacillus bifermentans QMW327) could be useful as starters to manufacture fermented foods containing high levels of SAM.

This study was conducted to investigate in vivo and in vitro digestibility in juvenile Atlantic Bluefin tuna Thunnus thynnus. In vivo digestibility was compared between four experimental diets to determine the optimum dietary inclusion level of an enzyme-treated sardine fish meal (EFM) and sardine fish meal (FM). The experimental diets were as follows; EFM75 (75% EFM), EFM60 (60% EFM and 15% FM), FM75 (75% FM) and SL (frozen sand lance) as a raw fish feed. Feces of Bluefin tuna (90.3 g) were collected both by siphoning from a 700 L cage and by dissection in 69 ton concrete rearing tanks. For the siphoning method, protein digestibility was higher in the tuna fed SL diet than that of other groups. The lowest protein digestibility was observed in FM75. For the dissection method, protein digestibility was higher in tuna fed EFM75 diet than that of other groups. The lowest protein digestibility was observed in the EFM60 group. In vitro digestibility was compared in six protein sources to find an alternative source of EFM for the tuna feed. The highest in vitro digestibility was observed in EFM (92%) followed by low temperature FM (72%), meat meal (65%), feather meal (60%), sardine fish meal (57%) and poultry by-product meal (55%).

This study conducted to investigate the quality of commercial fish sauce and determine the grade of them by measuring the chemical compositions and biogenic amines. The commercial salt-fermented anchovy sauce contained 65.84-70.94% (mean : 68.39%) of moisture, 22.19-25.43% (24.22%) of salinity, 5.4-6.1 (5.8) of pH, 0.76-1.61%(1.18%) of total nitrogen, 478.52-924.66 mg/100 g (702.05 mg/100 g) of amino nitrogen and 584.59-1593.52 mg/kg of histamine. Whereas commercial salted-fermented sand lance sauces contained 66.63-71.99% (68.73%) of moisture, 23.9-25.5% (24.57%) of salinity, 5.5-6.4(6.16) of pH, 0.64-1.46% (1.07%) of total nitrogen, 433.51-1006.67 mg/100 g (665.36 mg/100 g) of amino nitrogen and 194.01-1839.68 mg/kg of histamine. Correlation of TN, AN and VBN containing nitrogen was high, but there was no significant correlation between these results and histamine. In total nitrogen content, 6 of the 20 fish sauces were less than Korea Food Standard. The eight samples were less than the amino nitrogen regulation of Korean Industrial Standard (KS). And 14 fish sauce were exceeded by 68% for moisture content standard of Korean Industrial Standard.

Based on the act.ivity report for the coastal fisheries resources conducted from 1982 to 1989 by West, East Research Institute of Fisheries, some other reports from Korea Rural Economics Institute and etc., and the questionnaire results for the senses of fishermen, the fishing efficiency and conditions of by - catch of small fish in winged stow net were analized, and then some ways to prevent from by - catch of small fishes were suggested in this paper. The nationwide conditions of Permission and Disposal in winged stow net fishery arc that number of cases of coastal winged stow net fishery has dropped to 757 by 1994 while it was 961 in 1991 and that the number of cases of a sectional winged stow net fishery on the contrary has increased to 302 by 1994 while it was 11 in 1991. Regardless of region, catch per net by year in general has been on gradual increase in 1982 through 1989, but that showed decrease in 1994. From the view of region, the proportion of by - catch of shrimps and blenny is higher in Kyonggi, Chungnam with West Sea and that of anchovy and blenny is higher in Chonbuk, Chonnam, Kyongnam with South Sea. The average proportions of by - catch of small fish for 5 years from 1985 to 1989 are 86.9% for sand lance, 69% for anchovy, 63% for big eyed herring, 51% for blenny, 22% for Southern rough shrimp and 19% for akiami paste shrimp, hence sand lance and anchovy are highly by - catch effective while shrimps is not. Ways to prevent the over fishing of small fish in winged stow net fishery includes reduction of fishing frequency during April and August through November, the very season for small fish, use of meshes large enough for small fish to go through and assignment of fishing area to other than habitats of stationary fish.

There is a limitation to estimate vitamin $B_{12}$ intake due to a lack of data on vitamin $B_{12}$ content in many Korean foods. In this study, vitamin $B_{12}$ content was determined in some seaweeds, fish, and shellfish and their product that are consumed in Korea using a modified microbioassay with Lactobacillus delbruecki ATCC 7830. Dried laver and dried seasoned and toasted laver contained very high levels of vitamin $B_{12}$ (66.8 and $55.2-71.3\;{\mu}g$/100 g, respectively. Sea lettuce and seaweed fulvescene also contained high vitamin $B_{12}$ content of 5.47-9.41 and $6.46-7.20\;{\mu}g$/100 g, respectively, whereas sea mustard and sea tangle contained low levels of vitamin $B_{12}$; vitamin $B_{12}$ was not detected in seaweed fusifome. Pacific saury, trout, sea-bass, or squid contained 12.01, 2.00, 0.49 and $2.33\;{\mu}g$ vitamin $B_{12}$/100 g, respectively. Ochellatus octopus, and naked sand lance contained 0.72-1.43 and $3.68\;{\mu}g$ vitamin $B_{12}$/100 g, respectively. Dried Alaska pollack con-tained $0.19-2.64\;{\mu}g$ vitamin $B_{12}$/100 g. Shellfish such as little neck clam and small ark shellfish contained high levels of vitamin $B_{12}$ of $30.5-40.5\;{\mu}g$/100 g, and mussel and abalone contained 17.71 and $7.82\;{\mu}g$/100 g, respectively. Of unique Korean traditional fermented seafood products, salt-fermented products of squid ($2.91\;{\mu}g$/100 g), clams ($34.31\;{\mu}g$/100 g), Ala-ska pollack roe ($9.98-12.02\;{\mu}g$/100 g), hairtail guts ($4.58\;{\mu}g$/100 g) or small shrimp ($0.58-1.55\;{\mu}g$/100 g), and fish sauce from anchovies ($1.52-1.78\;{\mu}g$/100 mL), sand eel ($0.22-0.24\;{\mu}g$/100 mL) or small shrimp ($0.19-0.78\;{\mu}g$/100 mL) were analyzed. A few commercial brands of flying fish roe ($0.73-1.73\;{\mu}g$/100 g), canned tuna ($0.40\;{\mu}g$/100 g), and fried fish paste ($0.25-0.69\;{\mu}g$/100 g) were also analyzed. In conclusion, vitamin $B_{12}$ content in these foods, chosen considering the Korean food culture, should contribute to improve the present vitamin $B_{12}$ food database. It may be helpful to estimate vitamin $B_{12}$ intake more correctly than before, and provide additional information for dietary education related to vitamin $B_{12}$ and meal management.
