This study aimed to determine the anti-obesity effect of adding Wolfiporia extensa Ginns (W) to fermented pollack skin products in an obesity-induced animal model. The experimental groups were the normal diet group (C), high-fat diet group (HF), dried pollack skin (H1), fermented pollack skin (H2), and W of 0.1 (F2-WL), 0.3 (F2-WM), and 0.5 (F2), respectively. It was confirmed that adding W to fermented pollack skin reduced blood triglycerides, total cholesterol, and LDL levels, while increasing HDL levels. Wolfiporia extensa Ginns was effective in controlling weight and improving blood lipids in a dose-dependent manner. In histological analysis, findings of fatty liver induced by a high-fat diet were improved by the addition of H2 and W. Size and density of fat globules in the epididymis were decreased. In addition, the concentration of TNF-α was increased in the high-fat diet group, but decreased by the addition of fermented pollack skin and W. In conclusion, adding fermented dried pollack skin and Wolfiporia extensa Ginns was effective for weight control and blood lipid improvement. Thus, the use of by-products in functional foods is expected to have a high value in the future.

Gamma irradiation was applied to dried pollack to improve its microbiological quality and evaluate quality stability of irradiated samples. Thermoluminescence (TL) properties of minerals separated from irradiated samples were measured for possible use in identifying irradiation treatment. Dried pollack was packaged in commercial unit (PVC film, 0.06 mm thickness) and stored at $15{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ for 6 months. Samples showed over $10^4\;CFU/g$ in total aerobic bacteria or yeasts&molds, which increased during storage, reaching $10^6-10^7\;CFU/g$ at 3rd month of storage. Irradiation at 3 kGy was effective for improving hygienic quality for 6 months, keeping microbial population under 20 CFU/g. Gamma irradiation at 3 kGy or less did not significantly influence physicochemical quality attributes, such as browning, TBA value, volatile basic nitrogen, trimethylamine, and sensory properties, whereas storage time remarkably induced quality changes of dried pollack. TL analysis was proved suitable for identifying irradiated from non-irradiated samples over 6 months of storage.

This study was performed to evaluate the quality characteristics of functional Dasik prepared with a mixture of freeze-dried mealworm (Tenebrio molitor) powder and dried pollack powder along with assessment of the general and fatty acid compositions of mealworms. General compositions, except for moisture content of freeze-dried mealworm powder, were higher than those of raw mealworms. The ratios of saturated fatty acids and unsaturated fatty acids of freeze-dried mealworm powder and raw mealworms were 1:3.31 and 1:3.19, respectively. Amounts of oleic acid, which was the most abundant among unsaturated fatty acids, of freeze-dried mealworm powder and raw mealworms were 41.12 and 37.84%, respectively. For color values, greater content of freeze-dried mealworm powder in functional Dasik resulted in lower L and b scores, whereas a value increased. In the case of mechanical properties, greater content of freeze-dried mealworm powder resulted in significant reduction of hardness, chewiness, and gumminess. In the case of sensory evaluation, color, taste, and overall quality of DPMD50, which was prepared with a 1:1 ratio of freeze-dried mealworm powder and dried pollack, were the highest. It was concluded that DPMD50 is a nutritious combination of edible insects and fish for protein fortification for growth and the elderly.

This study is aimed to investigate the structure of world pollack markets and the position/competitiveness or Korea for WTO/NAMA Negotiation. First or all, it is clearly pointed out that many limitations and problems are inherent in FAO statistics that is widely utilized to investigate the structure of international seafood markets. Especially, it is impossible to find not only the data for Russia that is the top production and export country of pollack, but also the data for importing/exporting countries for pollack. In order to make up for these problems, the data for export and import of major countries are collected and analyzed. The results of analysis show the followings. First, it is clearly investigated that classification of fish products are different for countries. Second, it is understood the structure of international pollack market in actuality. The pollack market is segmented by frozen, fresh, dried, fillet, roe, surimi, etc. In addition, the pollack market has grown as much as 600,000 tons in amount and $1.2billion in value. Third, competitiveness of Korea in international pollack markets is measured quantitatively. It shows that Korea has low RAC index and TSI index, but high RMI index. Thus, it is identified that Korea becomes the largest pollack importing country. Fourth, the partial equilibrium analysis on pollack import market of Korea indicates that the frozen pollack has both price elasticity and substitution elasticity, while the fresh pollack has income elasticity.

This study attempted to establish the basic data for ensuring the safety of dried Alaska pollack. The changes of such compounds in the curse of drying as cholesterol, malonaldehyde, 7-ketocho-lesterol, 7$\alpha$-, 7$\beta$-hydroxycholesterol and 25-hydroxycholesterol were analyzed. The contensts of cholesterol decreased rapidly in the samples durint sun, hot-air and frozen drying and the decreased levels of cholesterol in dried products were about 134.0~191.3mg/100gas compared with 307.1mg/100g in raw samples. 4.8~6.1$\mu\textrm{g}$/100g in dried samples. In the raw samples, oxidized cholesterols were not detected hydroxycholesterol(34.1~41.7$\mu\textrm{g}$), 7$\beta$-hydroxycholesterol(26.8~40.2$\mu\textrm{g}$/g) and 25-hydroxycholesterol(0.3~1.3$\mu\textrm{g}$/g) were detected. Frozen drying was formed to be the most effective to minimize the formation of oxidized cholesterol in Alaska pollacks.

Hwangtae, dried Alaska pollack, is a major storage product in the fish processing industry. Hwangtae is prepared by removing the internal organs and drying outdoors during the cold witner months by allowing it to thaw during the daytime and re-freeze at night under sub-zero ($-10^{\circ}C$) conditions and gradually dry from December until the next April for around 5 months from Myungtae. In this study, ground Hwangtae was hydrolyzed using two proteolytic enzymes (pepsin and alcalase) which produced five soluble active peptides from Hwangtae (yellowish dried Pollack, Theragra chalcogramma) protein. Two different peptides with strong antioxidative activity were isolated from the hydrolysate using consecutive chromatographic methods of Sephadex G-25 gel, ion-exchange chromatography on a Sepharose-Sephadex C-25 gel, and high-performance liquid chromatography. The isolated peptides, APO1 and APO2, were composed of 16 and 13 amino acid residues, respectively. Both peptides contained a Gly residue at the C-terminus and the repeating motif Gly-Pro-Hyp. The peptide with a molecular weight less than 1,000 Daltons (APACE) obtained from enzymatic hydrolysates of Hwangtae exhibited the highest ACE inhibitory activity. The APACE peptides was composed of 4 amino acid residues (Gly-Leu-Leu-Pro). These results suggest that Hwangtae hydrolysates could be a good source of peptides with ACE inhibitory activity. Biochemical analysis indicated that two 70 kDa peptides (APG1 and APG2) isolated from the hydrolysate had gelatinoytic activity, which was shown to be a calcium dependent protease type as showed by gelatin SDS PAGE.

Fish sauce is a liquid form of salt-fermented fish and has played an important role in Korean dietary life. Fish sauce was manufactured by utilizing Alaska pollack scrap from Himedara(seasoned and dried Alaska pollack tail) processing . In addition, the effects of squid viscera as a fermentation enhancer were also evaluate.Ph of Alaska plllack scrap sauce with squid viscera was lower than that of control over the entire fermentation process. Squid viscera acceleraged the production of amino-nitrogen, VBN , TBA and free amino acids, and the degradation of IMP and Inosine. The addition of squid viscera and koji at 5% concentration, respectively , also accelerated the digestion of Alaska pollack scrap and was similar to the results of squid viscera at 10% concentration.

Changes in lipid components of pollack meat during sun-drying and effects of NaCl on lipid oxidation were examined. TBA values and peroxide values of sun dried pollack(SD), salted and sun dried pollack (SS) were 0.142 and 14.8 meq/kg, 0.226 and 20.0 meq/kg after sun-drying, respectively. Raw pollack contained 6.12% total lipid consisted of 2.42% neutral lipid(NL) and 3.70% phospholipid(PL) as dry basis, and there were $47{\sim}65%$ decrease in PL content during sun-drying. The NL class of raw pollack mainly consisted of triglyceride(TG), sterol(ST)+diglyceride(DG), hydrocarbon(HC)+sterol ester(SE), and main components in PL class were phosphatidylcholine(PC), phosphatidylethanolamlne(PE) and phosphatidylserine(PS). The contents of TG, ST+DG, PC and PE decreased, while those of free fatty acid, HC+SE, sphingomyelin and lysophosphatidylcholine increased markedly during sun-drying. The major fatty acids of TL in raw pollack, PD and SD samples were generally 22:6, 16:0, 20:5, 18:1 and 18:3; 20:5 decreased markedly during sun-drying, while saturates and monoenes such as 16:0, 18:0 and 18:1 increased slightly. And remaining ratios of polyunsaturated fatty acids of TL, NL and PL in SD and SS samples were 81.1%, 92.5%. 73.3%, and 74.6%, 74.1%, 45.4%, respectively. The results of changes in lipid components during sun-drying showed that sodium chloride catalyzed the lipid oxidation of pollack meat during drying processing.
