Chemical and microbial properties of Northern sand lance, Ammodytes personatus, sauce fermented at $15^{\circ}C$ with fermentation accelerating agents, koji, enzyme, and squid viscera, were analyzed. Total creatine content of Northern sand lance sauce with squid viscera increased up to 2 months of ripening and decreased gradually thereafter, while that with koji or enzyme, and control, increased up to 3 months of ripening and then decreased slowly. TBA values of all samples increased sharply during early ripening, followed by slight decrease. Free amino acid content with all agents increased continuously as fermentation progressed. Major free amino acids of Northern sand lance sauce were glutamic acid, alanine, valine, leucine, and lysine. Total viable cell counts with all agents also increased during early ripening and then decreased. Total viable cell count of Northern sand lance sauce with squid viscera was the highest followed that with koji, enzyme, and control. Northern sand land sauce manufactured with koji showed the most acceptable sensory evaluation result, followed by that with squid viscera.

Chelating agents to sand lance fish sauce for the prevention of precipitate formation were applied. The precipitates consisted of crude protein (74.4%), ash (18.7%), and other components (6.9%). Sand lance sauce was mainly composed of glutamic acid (3.69 mg/g), alanine (2.96 mg/g), and lysine (2.64 mg/g). However, there was an increase in the amount of hydrophobic amino acids, phenylalanine, isoleucine, and leucine, in the precipitates. Sodium ions were not detected in the precipitate; rather, the main elements were Mg ($1.98{\times}10^4\;{\mu}g/g)$, K ($1.36{\times}10^4\;{\mu}g/g)$, and Ca ($6.66{\times}10^2\;{\mu}g/g)$. In HPLC analysis, fish sauce was composed of 2 main peaks with molecular weights of 85.5 and 528.4 Da, respectively. However, the precipitate contained one peak with a molecular weight of 1,513.5 Da. The addition of 0.2% malic acid and citric acid caused 55 and 70% prevention of the precipitate, respectively. Citric acid was the most effective chelating agent and efficiently prevented precipitation in the fish sauce.

To develop the rapid processing of northern sand lance sauce by thermoase, the rapid fermentation conditions and quality of fermented sauce were investigated gated The recommendable condition of rapid fermentation were determined as follows: thermoase concentration, fermentation time and fermentation temperature were $0.2\%$, 9hr and $60^{\circ}C$, respectively. The northern sand lance sauce fermented rapidly showed light brown color. The sweet amino acids were higher in the rapid fermented-sauce than commercal fermented sauce although the content of total nitrogen, amino nitrogen and total amino acids were low in it. Hereafter we suppose that the rapid fermented sauce by thermoase will be wide usable because it can use the salted northern sand lance in short time.

In order to establish the exact determination method of amino nitrogen in fish sauces, we compared the amino-nitrogen content in salt-fermented sand lance sauces according to the measuring methods and investigated influencing factors on the procedure of measuring. Amino-nitrogen content was increased in both sand lance sauce during fermentation periods and commercial sand lance sauces. Amino-nitrogen in fermented sand lance sauces for 12 months occupied 88.7% and 75.2% for the trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid(TNBS) method and the Copper-salt method, compare to the Formol method. The ratio of amino-nitrogen/total nitrogen in fermented sand lance sauce for 12 months was higher than in commercial sand lance sauces. The determination of amino-nitrogen by the TNBS method was influenced by concentration of salt in sand lance sauce. The amino-nitrogen content was the highest in the Formol method and followed by the TNBS method and the Copper-salt method without the influence of heating time and monosodium glutamate(MSG) concentration. We concluded that the determination of amino nitrogen in fish sauces was correct to measure with the TNBS method.

Fish sauce is a traditional Korean fermented seafood and has been used as a condiment since long time ago. Northern sand lance sauce was manufactured with koji, enzyme, and squid viscera of fermentation accelerating agents, and ripened at $15^{\circ}C$. Moisture contents of all samples decreased gradually as fermentation progressed. Crude protein contents increased rapidly up to 1 month-fermentation and then increased slightly up to 5 month. Northern sand lance sauce with squid viscera was the highest in the contents of protein and lipid. The ash content increased gradually during the fermentation periods, while pHs decreased. TMA contents increased up to 3 month-ripening and then decreased slightly. Amino nitrogen content of Northern sand lance sauce with squid viscera increased as fermentation progressed and was the highest among all samples. VBN contents increased up to 5 month-ripening and that of Northern sand lance sauce with squid viscera was the higher than others.

This study was conducted to enhance the protein quality of wheat flour extrudates with the addition of fish sauce by-products and dried biji. The experimental design was used to determine the optimum ratio of each ingredient. The compositional and functional properties of test extrudate were measured, and these values were applied to the mathematical models. A canonical form and trace plot showed that the influence of each ingredient on the mixture final product. Protein content of extrudate was increased by the addition of the dried biji, and bending failure stress of extrudate became hardened due to interaction effects between dried biji and pacific sand lance sauce by-product. Also, the addition of dried biji decreased ash and salt contents. An optimum formulation was obtained as 15.83 : 44.17 : 40% with numerical and 15.74 : 44.26 : 26.40% with graphical method (pacific sand lance sauce by-product : dried biji : wheat flour). Based on the growth performance, feed conversion efficiency was slightly lower than control group, but the protein content in feed extrudate increased to a large extent compared to that mixed with wet biji.

This study investigated changes in the physicochemical and microbiological properties of fermented fish sauces based on the pacific sand lance Ammodytes personatus during fermentation according to rice koji treatments and salt contents. In total, six fish sauces were prepared, with rice koji treatment for 24 or 72 h before salt addition, and salt contents of 10 or 20%, including two controls to compare the response to different salt contents without koji treatment. The initial pH values of the sauces with koji treatments were notably lower than those of the controls. Over the 10 months of fermentation, the amino nitrogen contents of the sauces with 10% salt were higher than those with 20% salt, while the volatile base nitrogen value was also increased. In the microbial community, the initial numbers of lactic acid bacteria and mold were higher in the sauces with koji treatment than in the controls. After 8 months of fermentation, the free amino acid and organic acid contents were higher in the sauces with koji treatment than in the controls. Although the fermentation rate was affected to a greater extent by salt contents, the rice koji treatment also exerted a positive effect on the acceleration of fermentation.

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 quality characteristics of 15 kinds of the commercial northern sand lance, Ammodytes Personatus sauce (CNS) of korean traditional salt-fermented fish sauces were evaluated comparing to the traditional northern sand lance, Ammodytes Personatus sauce (TNS). The ranges of chemical compositions of the CNSs were $66.5\~71.0\%$ moisture, $19.3\~24.6\%$ ash, $4.7\~12.0\%$ crude protein, and the pH and salinity were $5.56\~6.47\%,\;24.0\~32.9\%$, respectively. Total nitrogen, amino nitrogen, total free amino acid and total ATP related compounds (sum of ATP$\~$IMP, HxR, Hx and uric acid) were in the ranges of 0.781$\~$ 1,918 g, 445.9$\~$1037.9 mg, 3,258.9$\~$6:562.6mg in 100 ml CNSs, and 4.766$\~$8.989 $\mu$mol in 1 ml CNSs. The CNSs were higher in content of moisture, TMAO, TMA and pH, but lower in content of crude protein, salinity, total nitrogen, amino nitrogen, total ATP related compounds, absorbance at 453 nm and total free amino acid than the TNSs, Both CNS and TNS samples were rich in free amino acids, such as glutamic acid, lysine, alanine, leucine, valine, aspartic acid and isoleucine in the order.

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.
