Enzymes have been used in practical applications as diverse as brewing and industrial fermentations, detergent, analytical determinations and recombinant DAN technology. As processing aids, enzymes have been used in the manufacture of food products to improve their quality, solubility and stability for centuries. About 50％ of the enzyme used as industrial processing aids are pretenses which have been used in a number of industrial applications including laundry detergents, chill proofing, meat tenderizing, fermented sauces, and the production of pharmaceuticals.

As a part of investigation for utilizing anchovy more effectively as a food source, this work was undertaken the changes in keeping quality and taste compounds in the extracts from rapid fermented anchovy sauce during storage at room temperature. Rapid fermented products was made of chopped anchovy, water, koji and soybean protein isolate (20:10:2:1, w/w) thorough hydroxazine for 6 hours at $50^{\circ}C$. The liquified anchovy sauce extracts, contained 15% salt(w/w), were stored for 60 days at room temperature. The changes in pH, acidity, amino nitrogen and contents of taste compounds of the products were negligible during storage. The viable cell counts and histamines of the products were less than 30(colony/e extracts), 7.2-21.8(mg/100g extracts) during storage predominant free amino acids showed in the extracts from products were alanine, glutamic acid, histidine, lysine, leucine, valine and the total contents of those free amino acids were 60.4-64.3% of total free amino acids at final stage of storage. The major nucleotides and their related compounds of the products were revealed hypoxanthine, which were 69% over the total nucleotides and their related compounds. Using the omission test, the major taste compounds in the products were revealed free amino acids, nucleotides and their related compounds. The non-volatile organic acids, total creatinine, betaine, and TMAO were seemed to act an auxiliary role in taste of the extracts from rapid fermented anchovy sauce.

Fermented fish (jeotkal) has been used as a method of preserving perishable fish and marine products. Recently, however, high salted jeotkal (20% and more) has avoided from consumer by reasons of organoleptic quality (high salinity), health value (degenerative chronic disease), and hygienic safety. Among these jeotkals, meanwhile, sikhae (lactic acid fermented fishes) has been traditionally favored in the eastern coastal area of Korea, which contain below 10% of salt content with acidic range (pH4∼5).

The fatty acid composition of lipids extracted from 18 kinds of salted and fermented sea foods which have been consumed in Korea were examined. The lipid contents of salted and fermented sea foods showed wide difference (0.8-11.9%) depending on species and portions of raw materials. In fatty acid composition of salted and fermented sea foods prepared with whole fishes, the saturated fatty acid was the most predominant component, and the major fatty acids were 16:0, 18:1, 22:6, 16:1 and 20:5. In case of salted and fermented products prepared with gills, roe or intestines, the polyenoic fatty acid was the main component, the major fatty acids were 18:1, 16:0, 22:6, 20:5, 16:1 and 18:3. In these products the composition ratios of 20:5 and 18:3 were higher, and that of 16:0 and 16:1 were slightly lower as compared with salted and fermented whole fish products. And in case of salted and fermented crustacea and mollusk, the polyenoic fatty acids such a 22:6 and 20:5 were the most predominant component, the abundant fatty acids were 22:6, 16:0, 20:5, 18:1 and 16:1. Judging from results, salted and fermented sea foods were abundant of the highly unsaturated fatty acids such as 20:5, 22:6 inspite of the long fermentation periods.

Jeotgal, salt- fermented sea food, is a kind of Korean traditional foods. We carried out hazard analysis on Changran (stomach and intestine of Alaska pollack) Jeotgal and squid Jeotgal through the whole processing procedures at H Co. located at Guryongpo from April 2000 to September 2001. During this studying period, we educated employee regularly and analyzed hazards on the whole process and then could conclude that pathogenic bacteria and metal particles were most important hazards in Jeotgal. Metal particles in end-product will be eliminated by laser detector before packaging. But bacteria must thoroughly manage through the whole process. Bacteriological qualities of the end products were much improved after education for the employees and by effort for HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point) program introduction. Pathogenic bacteria such as pathogenic Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp., coagulase positive Staphylococcus aureus and Vibrio parahaemolyticus were not detected from not only raw materials but also end products. The falling bacteria in the places such as thawing area, packaging area, seasoning area, fermenting room, subsidiary materials room and storage room were less than 30 CFU per plate for 30 minutes during working time. But those were increased more than 10 times during the resting time. It means that special measures are needed during the break time such as lunch time or exchanging working teams.

We prepared flocculated detritus-like organic marine snow originating from various organisms by fermentation using microorganisms; this fermented organic material was fed to the leptocephali of the eel (Anguilla japonica) to investigate whether or not such organic matter was an appropriate food source for the larvae. A strain was isolated from a biofloc technology system used to culture fish, and seven types of organic material from hen's egg, eel muscle, tuna muscle, lugworm, shrimp, manila clam, mussel, and sea squirt were fermented using isolated bacteria (Bacillus sp.). The fermented matter did not show any specific form and was larger than $10-20{\mu}m$ but no more than $100{\mu}m$ in size. Four diets (A-D) were prepared using the various fermented products, and the larvae were fed the prepared food from 20 days after hatching. The leptocephali fed the A, B, and C diets survived until 37, 39, and 37 days after hatching, respectively. However, the leptocephali fed the D diet survived for 60 days after hatching. The protein content of each diet was very similar, but the n-3 HUFA concentration in the D diet was approximately twice as high as that of the others.

This study was performed to provide the optimal conditions of quantitative analysis for free amino acid in fermented protein foods. The water extractable free amino acid from dairy fermented foods was extracted effectively at $75^{\circ}C$ for 40 min., while it were extracted from fermented soy products at $40^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours. A close results of free amino acid content to those from amino acid analyzer were obtained using OPDA method with lysine standard after deproteinizing with 1% picric acid. 95% ethanol used as a deproteinizing reagent could give a comparable results to those from picric acid treatment in determining free amino acid content using OPDA method. Therefore, ethanol treatment was more recommendable than picric acid treatment which has some troubles in removing excess picric acid through Dowex resin column. The most desirable precipitation method for free amino acid determination using TNBS method was 95% ethanol treatment among the various deproteinizing procedure. The copper salt method was not suitable owing to its lacking reproducibility and pronounced discrepancy in determining free amino acid.

Saeujeot (salted and fermented shrimp) and kimchi are traditional Korean fermented foods. Even though shrimp have often induced severe allergic reactions in sensitized individuals, few studies have investigated the allergenicity of shrimp. The aim of this study was to observe the changes of pH and allergenicity of raw shrimp (Acetes japonicus) and saeujeot in cabbage kimchi during fermentation using competitive indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (Ci-ELISA). Fermentation was carried out at different temperatures (25, 15, and $5^{\circ}C$). The pH of cabbage kimchi added with raw shrimp or saeujeot slowly decreased at lower temperature ($5^{\circ}C$) at the end stage of the fermentation process. The binding ability of serum obtained from patients allergic to raw shrimp against shrimp tropomyosin and saeujeot in kimchi rapidly decreased during longer fermentation periods and higher temperature ($25^{\circ}C$). In conclusion, the allergenicity of both raw shrimp and saeujeot in kimchi decreased during fermentation but the decrease in allergenicity of saeujeot was greater than observed for raw shrimp.

Objective: The influence of konjac gel level on fermentation process and product qualities were assessed to evaluate the feasibility of using it as fat analog in Northeastern Thai fermented sausage (Sai Krok E-san). Methods: Five treatments of fermented sausages were formulated by replacing pork backfat with 0%, 7.5%, 22.5%, and 30% konjac gel. The changes in lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and important physicochemical properties of samples were assessed during 3 days of fermentation. After the end of fermentation at day 3, water activity ($a_w$), instrumental texture, color, microbial counts, and sensory evaluation were compared. The best product formulation using konjac for replacing pork back fat were selected and used to compare proximate composition and energy value with control sample (30% pork backfat). Results: An increase in konjac gel resulted in higher values of LAB, total acidity, and proteolysis index with lower pH and lipid oxidation during 3 days of product fermentation (p<0.05). It was noted that larger weight loss and product shrinkage during fermentation was observed with higher levels of konjac gel (p<0.05). The resulting sausage at day 3 with 15% to 30% konjac gel exhibited higher hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess, springiness, and chewiness than control (p<0.05). The external color of samples with 22.5% to 30% konjac gel were redder than others (p<0.05). Mold, Salmonella spp., Staphylococcus aureus, and Escherichia coli in all finished products were lower than detectable levels. Product with 15% konjac gel had the highest scores of sourness linking and overall acceptability (p<0.05). Conclusion: The product with 15% of konjac gel was the optimum formulation for replacing pork backfat. It had higher sensorial scores of sourness and overall acceptability than control with less negative impact on external appearance (product shrinkage) and weight loss. Moreover, it provided 46% fat reduction and 32% energy reduction than control.
