A study on the color changes of fish meat during drying was conducted using fishes with different lipid contents, such as Alaska pollack as lean fish, conger eel as white fleshed fatty fish, and sardine as dark fleshed fatty fish. The fish meat was dried in a forced air dryer for 20 hours at 40, 55 and $70^{\circ}C$, The air velocity was 0.4 m/sec and the relative humidity of air was controlled to a constant value in the range of 10 to $50\%$. The color changes were evaluated with the brown color densities developed by lipid oxidation and Maillard reaction. The predominant reaction for the brown color developed during drying was lipid oxidation, The more the lipid content of fish and the higher the drying temperature were, the more violent the oxidative reaction of Lipid was. The rate of lipid oxidation during drying at 40 and $55^{\circ}C$ was affected by the relative humidity of air and was the slowest around $30\%$. But no remarkable influence of relative humidity on the rate of lipid oxidation could be confirmed during drying at $70^{\circ}C$. It seemed that the rate of lipid oxidation at higher temperature was more sensitive to the temperature than the relative humidity of air. Maillard reaction showed not so significant influence on the color changes of fish meat during drying. The rate of reaction was increased with increasing relative humidity of air in the range of 10 to $50\%$.

Effects of sera from several fish species on monolayer formation, viability and functions of catfish hepatocytes were investigated to establish a primary hepatocyte culture system for screening endocrine disruptors. Hepatocytes of Korean catfish (Silurus asotus) were attached and formed monolayer using the media supplemented with their own serum or sera from eel and tilapia, but not with fetal bovine serum (FBS). The amount of fish sera (0.5~3%) for monolayer culture of the catfish hepatocytes was less than 1/10 of FBS (5~20%) that is commonly used for primary culture of hepatocytes of other species. The results indicate that FBS can be replaced with sera from some fish species and the fish sera are more effective than FBS in maintaining the shape and functions of the hepatocytes. The primary culture of catfish hepatocytes was maintained monolayer with fish sera for at least 10 days, which makes possible to be used for screening the activities of endocrine disruptors. In conclusion, the primary culture system of hepatocytes with fish sera in the present study could be a useful tool for screening and studying endocrine disruptors.

Extensive acquirement of drug resistance to traditional antibacterial agents poses a serious problem to eel aquaculturists. To collect the basic information for new drug development in the future, we assessed the in vitro antibacterial efficacy of 14 new quinolones with 75 isolates of Edwardsiella tarda from local aquaculture tanks of Anguilla japonica. Of all tested quinolones under development or marketed for human use, DU-6859 was most potent with its $MIC_{50}$ value of $0.05{\mu}g$/ml in broth microdilution assay. The drugs whose $MIC_{50}$ values ranged from 0.2 to $0.78{\mu}g$/ml were T-3762, Bay-y3118, ciprofloxacin, norfloxacin, ofloxcin and tosufloxacin. The weakest group of drugs, with their $MIC_{50}$ being 1.56-$3.13{\mu}g$/ml, were difloxacin, sparfloxacin, fleroxacin, Q-35, amifloxacin, lomefloxacin and enoxacin. The number of resistant strains, when arbitrarily defined with their MICs of $\geq6.25{\mu}g$/ml, was : 3 to T-3762, 3 to Bay-y3118, 44 to difloxacin, 16 to sparfloxacin, 13 to ciprofloxacin, 19 to fleroxacin, 36 to Q-35). 31 to amifloxacin, 5 to norfloxacin, 13 to ofloxacin, 31 to lomefloxacin, 41 to enoxacin, 12 to tosufloxacin and 0% to DU-6859, respectively. This information can be taken into consideration for the future development of fisheries antibacterial quinolones.

Vitelllogenin(Vg) is a sex specific protein appearing in the blood of sexually maturing female fish as well as other oviparous vetebrates. It is synthesized in the liver in response to estradiol-l7$\beta$(E$_2$). Although E$_2$ is a main induce. of Vg synthesis, other hormonal requirements have also been reported to be important in Vg synthesis(lazier et al., 1996; Peyon et at., 1997). (omitted)

The present paper deals with the measurement of the environmental radioactivity at the Kori nuclear Power Plant site area for the Period of six years from December 1970 to December 1976. Gross alpha activity was measured in samples of airborne particulate. Gross beta measurement was performed on soil, water, airborne perticulate, pine needle, precipitation, fallout (gummed acetate paper) and various foodstuffs. Radioactivities of strontium-90 and cesium-l37 were determined by means of radiochemical analyses in samples of spinach, cabbage, barley, rice in terrestrial food, sea eel, shell fish, dulse, green laver in marine product and milk, and of fallout (cloumn), Furthermore, tritum was also analyzed in water sample of well, stream and sea by electrical enrichment.

The effect of dietary fish oil ( mackerel oil : MO, eel oil : EO) on energy utilization in rats was studied with measurements of various tissue lipoprotein lipase( LPL ) and live and heart mitochondrial respiration. Fatty acid composition of mitrochondrial inner membrane matrix was also investigated. Dietary fat level was 10%( w/w) and reference groups were fed soybean oil (SO), repeseed oil ( RO) and beef tallow( BT ). Activity of LPL was about 60% higher in post-heparin plasma and 2 to 3 times higher in adipose tissue of BT group than fish oil or vegetable oil group. But there was no significant difference between fish oil and vegetable oil groups. Inclusion of EO above 2% (w/w) in dietary fat with fille oil of BT, markedly reduced both post -heparin plasma and adipose tissue LPL. Effects of MO and EO were not different in adipose tissue LPL, but EO was more effective than MO, in reducing post -heparin plasma LPL when mixed fat with varying amount of fish oil was used. Hepatic mitochondria isolated from fish oil-fed group showed the lowest rate of respiration but had P/O ratio comparable to SO and BT groups. On the other hand, cardiac mitochondria of fish oil group showed no difference in all the mitochondrial respiration parameters observed RO group had lowest P/O ratio both in hepatic and cardiac mitochondria. Fatty acid compositions of mitochondrial lipid differ between SO, RO, BT and MO groups, notably in the content of $C_{22:1}$ fatty acid.

Infectious Pancreatic Necrosis Virus (IPNV) is one of the most important pathogens for inland fish farming and had been first reported in Korea from returning adult chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) at hatcheries on the east coast. During the past years, several viruses identified as IPNV were isolated not only from chum salmon, but also from gold fish (Carassius auratus), eel(Anguilla japonica), and rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri). An isolate, coded DRT, from fingerlings of pan-cultured rainbow trout in Daechung Dam showed different serotype from three known reference serogroups of IPNV such as VR-299, Sp, and Ab. Antisera to three of these serotypes, however, partially neutralized the infectivity of this isolate. Anti-Sp type was rather effective than either anti-VR-299 or anti-Ab, implying DRT could be more closely related to Sp. DRT has been purified and its RNA genome segments were compated showing that the isolate does not belong to any of known serogroups even with some common antigenicity.

The aim of this study was to acquire level on the occurrence of five fluoroquinolones(FQs) residue among cultured eels in Jeonbuk province. Samples were collected from the four local area(Kunsan, Gochang, Wanju and Osu) and surveyed on the distribution of FQs residual level in edible muscle using HPLC method. A total of 90 samples of eel was monitored for detection of the FQs residue. Among them, 30 eels(33.3%) were detected the FQs single or paired, respectively. The detection ratios were showed Osu(40%, 8/20), Gochang(33%, 13/44), Wanju(30%, 6/20) and Kunsan(30%, 3/10) in order, respectively. The ratio was equivalent to over 30% of overall in sampled area. The most frequently detected FQs were perfloxacin(PF) followed by enrofloxacin(EF), ciprofloxacin(CF), ofloxacin(OF) and norfloxacin(NF). Eight different combinations of FQ residual patterns were observed as single(5 type, 21%) or as paired(3type, 12,5%) respectively and frequently encountered patterns were PF(37%) and PF-EF(23%). The residual level of FQs was evaluated in the range of 1-75 ug/kg and the most prevalent levels of FQs was found in 1-25 ug/kg(35 fish, 85%) followed by 26-50 ug/kg(5 fishes, 11%) and 51-75 ug/kg(1 fishes, 3.3%). These results could be possible that the cultured eels were mostly exposed with PF, EF and CF, and might be treated with a variety of fluoroquinolones for prevention of bacterial disease.

I have studied historical transition process of fisheries industries, fisheries Institute in abreast of developing fisheries industries of west coast of Korea since 1910 year with regard to the Gogunsan Is. The results were summarized as follows. In 1910 year, fishery industry has been carried out shifting fishing gear e.g set-net in shallow waters, small stow net, small seine net adapting to the tophorgrapical feature, shape of coast, oceanic condition, however, the fishing gear and fishing method were undeveloped, so that, Japanese fishermen had been exploited fisheries resources penetrating the fishing ground. Most important species were lot of captured croaker, cod, spanish mackeral, sea abream, herring in coastal sea. nowaday, squid, anchovy, shrimp, crab, pompret were much captured. The species were captured in 18 century were not captured. It is rarely than that period. Fishereis aquatic culture had been not farmed till 1960 year, but sea laver, shrimp, crab, had been breeded 1970 year also, the fresh water fish e.g. eel, cat-fish had been breeded activately. The fisheries processing industry were composed of salt. icing, dry, method. the salted fish industry had been prevailed at Gangyng, Kwangchon, Kunsan, Julpo comparatively. The fisheries institute had been established at Kunsan at first, but institute established in other region had been abolished in a short time. This phenomenon was related with development of fisheries resources. The western coast fisheries industries had been wasted of decreasing of fisheries resources, variation of environment. Accordingly, the study of preserving the marine resources. educated man power who engaged in fisheries field have to accomplish. Sea was dying with reason of loss of mud in west coast factory waste, waste of life the increase of accident of sea polluted, each illegal fishing industry physical and chemical reason etc. in this respect, Kusan maritime college, fisheries developing agency, institute have to take important role for developing fishing industry.
