The optimal conditions of enzymatic hydrolysis for preparation of rapid salted and fermented anchovy sauce (SFAS) using various pretenses such as trypsin, chymotrypsin, crude enzyme from squid liver and viscera, Alcalase, Neutrase and Protamex were studied. SFAS prepared with squid viscera had higher level of VBN (173.6 mg/100 g) when stored for 70 days than other samples, and peroxide values were almost equal among all samples during fermentation period. Total amino acids and nonprotein nitrogenous compounds remarkably increased as SFAS treated with Alcalase or Protamex which exhibited higher the hydrolysis rate of $57\%$ at 60 day than others. The optimal pHs of trypsin, chymotryosin, Alcalase, Neutrase and Protamex on anchovy actomyosin were 7.5, 6.5, 6.5, 7.0 and 5.0, respectively. Optimal temperatures of trypsin, chymotryosin, Alcalase and Neutrase were 55, 45, 60 and $55^{\circ}C$, respectively. Otherwise, Protamex activity increased as temperature increased from 20 to $70^{\circ}C$. Protamex had higher $K_m$ (3.545) and $V_{max}$ value (2.688) than others. Protamex affected less by NaCl had $52.5\%$ activity at the fermentation condition of $20^{\circ}C$ and $25\%$ NaCl. Protamex appeared to be very effective for the hydrolysis of crude actomyosin from ancnovy.

The objective of this study was to analyze bacteriological and chemical hazards in minimally processed commercial fish products, including Hwangtae (freeze-dried pollock), dried anchovy, fermented anchovy sauce, and salted and dried yellow croaker. Escherichia coli counts from all samples were below the regulation limits of the Korean Ministry of Food and Drug Safety Standards on Quality of Seafood and Seafood Products (Food Code). However, the food poisoning bacterium Staphylococcus aureus was detected at levels above $1.0{\times}10^2$ colony forming units (CFU)/g in Hwangtae, dried anchovy, and salted and dried yellow croaker, which are commonly ingested without heating and pose bacteriological hazards. The detection of S. aureus, an organism indicative of poor personal hygiene, which can be introduced by employees and multiply during distribution, indicates the necessity of improving the sanitary control of minimally processed commercial fish products. Histamine was not detected from dried anchovy or salted and dried yellow croaker, but was detected at some of the highest levels in fermented anchovy sauces. This result suggests that efforts to reduce the amount of histamine in fermented anchovy sauces are required.

The properties of Puchu(Allium odorum L.)kimchi prepared with different methods were investigated by measuring organoleptic and microbiological properties up to 43 days at 10$\^{C}$ right after preparation. Five conditions of making Puchukimchi included: the addition of salt (treatment A), soybean sauce (treatment B), soybean sauce and perilla seed powder (treatment C), anchovy sauce (treatment D), anchovy sauce and glutinous rice paste(treatment E). Sensory evaluation showed high scores in the appearance, smell, sour taste, good taste, savory taste, texture, and overall acceptability of Puchukimchi prepared with soybean sauce(treatment B). However, treatment C had the best score in good taste. In the intial stage of fermentation, treatment C had higher total microbial counts than others, but in the final stage, treatment E had higher counts than others. Treatment A had less total microbial counts than others throughout the fermentation. The maximum numbers of lactic acid bacteria in other treatments were in the order of treatments A>B>D. In the final stage of fermentation, treatment B had the least number of lactic acid bacteria composed of Pediococcus, Streptococcus, Leuconostoc and Lactobacillus. Streptococcus reached the maximum level at the 8 th day of fermentation, and the number of Lactobacillus was increased with the lapse of fermentation time. It was shown that fermentation patterns of Puchukimchi were influenced by the preparation methods used.

The objective of this study was to investigate the sensory quality attributes for the development of soy sauce containing Hutgae(Hovenia dulcis Thunb). Aqueous extracts of Hutgae were prepared from different parts such as trunk, twig, and fruit. These extracts were used for determining the antioxidant effect by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH) radical scavenging activity and sensory evaluation. Hutgae twig and fruit extracts had a strong DPPH scavenging effect compared to Hutgae trunk extract. In sensory analysis, high intensities of roast smell, bitter taste, and astringent taste were observed in Hutgae twig extract, whereas those of sweet smell and sweet taste were predominated within Hutgae fruit extract. Hutgae trunk and fruit extracts obtained higher overall acceptability. Various seasoning items such as anchovy, dried-pollack, katsuobushi, shiitake, radish, and kelp were used to determine the suitable type of soy sauce containing Hutgae extracts regarding the different parts. Hutgae fruit and trunk extracts were evaluated for use as a good source of seasoned soy sauce, and the dried-pollack and radish among the seasoning items were well-matched with Hutgae extracts. From these results, soy sauce containing Hutgae trunk and fruit extracts added to dried-pollack soup may be used as a functional seasoning in order to remove hangovers.

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.

The effect of fermentation period on the accumulation of 55,600 dalton polypeptide was analyzed by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) as a quality parameter of anchovy sauces. Also, proximate compositions, total nitrogen contents, amount of specfic pepited and isoelectric point(pI0 were investigated during fermentation periods. Total nitrogen contents significantly increased until 18 months. Polypeptide of 55,600 and 46,900 dalton on SDS-PAGE and pI 5.2, 5.6 and 6.0 on isoelectric focusing were identified in all the samples. Especially, the amount of 55,600 dalton had no important change during fermentation periods, and it had a high correlation with dilution degree of anchovy sauces diluted with water. The results could be suggest that the amonts of 55,600 dalton polypeptide will be index for quality estimation of commerical anchovy 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.

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.

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.

This study was conducted to examine the effects of fish sauces from shrimp and anchovy and chitosan on the changes in pH, acidity, texture, and pectin fraction during Kimchi fermentation. Also, we conducted sensory evaluation on the textural properties of various Kimchis. The results were as follows: During fermentation, pH was decreased in the order of fermented anchovy sauce, fermented shrimp and control. And acidify was increased in the same order. But the addition of chitosan retarded the decrease in pH and increase in acidity. The compression force of various Kimchis during fermentation was decreased in the rder of fermented anchovy sauce, fermented shrimp, control and the addition of chitosan. During fermentation, hot water soluble pectin (HWSP) of control, fermented shrimp and fermented anchovy sauce increased whereas HCI soluble pectin (HCISP) in there treatments decreased. On the while, HWSP decreased and HCISP increased by addition of chitosan. Sensory score for the texture parameters such as hardness, crispness and chewiness of various Kimchis after the 3rd and 5th days of fermentation showed that hardness, crispness and chewiness were higher in chitosan treatment than in other treatments. The pH and acidity, compression force of Kimchis were appeared to be most highly correlated with crispness, showing that pH and compression force gave positive correlation and acidity gave negative correlation with crispness respectively. From the above results, chitosan addition was observed to infuluence the textural properties of Kimchi and their pectic substance.
