  • Changing concepts in fishery science increasingly are recognizing depletion of traditional stocks, utilization of alternate(non-traditional) species, demand for high quality products, and a total resource utilization approach. Innovative practices are occurring in fisheries processing wherein solid and liquid discharges are no longer treated as 'waste,' but rather as valuable feedstocks for recovery of a variety of value-added ('value enhanced') by-products. Among these are protein hydrolysates, soluble proteins and amino acids, proteolytic enzymes, flavor and flavor extracts, pigments, and biopolymers such as chitosan. Properties and applications of this deacetylated derivative of chitin are noted. Crustacean processing by-products are discussed in terms of their serving as materials for generation of natural flavors and flavor extracts, and products such as fish sauces using contemporary enzymatic techniques. Various food and feed applications of fisheries processing by-products are illustrated with increased usage seen in formulated diets for an expanding aquaculture market. Examples are given of aquaculture becoming increasingly significant in global fisheries resource projections. Critical issues in the international seafood industry Include those of seafood quality, processing quality assurance (HACCP), and recognition of the nutritional and health-related properties of fisheries products. A variety of current seafood processing research is discussed, including that of alternate fish species for surimi manufacture and formulation of value-added seafood products from crawfish and blue crab processing operations. Increasing emphasis is being placed on international aspects of global fisheries and the role of aquaculture in such considerations. Coupled with the need for the aquatic food industry to develop innovative seafood products for the 21st century is that of total resource utilization. Contemporary approaches in seafood processing recognize the need to discard the traditional concept of processing 'waste' and adapt a more realistic, and economically sound, approach of usable by-products for food and feed application. For example, in a period of declining natural fishery resources it is no longer feasible to discard fish frames following fillet removal when a significant amount of residual valuable flesh is present that can be readily recovered and properly utilized in a variety of mince-based formulated seafood products.

  • This study was carried out to investigate the rancidity of deep frying foods (cuttlefish and swetpotato) in Incheon city. The samples were collected from 3 snack corners in market, and at 10, 14 and 18 o'clock. The Acid Value, Peroxide Value and TBA value of the fried products were determined and Sensory Evaluation was also performed. The results are as follows: 1. The range of Acid Value was 0.73~1.91 on cuttlefish and 0.33~1.03 on sweetpotato. There was no significant difference in all samples by times and places. 2. The range of Peroxide Value was 3.26~8.23 on cuttlefish and 3.45~11.63 on sweetptato. There was no significant difference in all samples by times and places. 3. the range of TBA Value was 50.03~132.27 on cuttlefish and 30.63~112.83 on sweetpotato. The TBA Value of the products in department store at 18 o'clock more less than mat at 10 o'clock. 4. The Acid Value and TBA Value of sweetpotato was more less than those of cuttlefish. 5. In sensory evaluation, mere was no significant difference by times but significant difference by places on all items. 1) In greasy taste, the first one among cuttlefish products was mat of department store and last one was market product which was much more greasy taste. Among sweetpotato products, the products of department store and near-college were more less greasy man market product. 2) In flavor and overall quality, the product of department store was better than near-college and market products on all samples, 3) In color, the products of department store and near-college were more light man market products on all samples. 4) There was correlation between color and flavor, and overall quality flavor. The flavor and color of products have the effect on the overall quality of products.

  • The antioxidant and cholinesterase inhibitory activities of the acetone and dichloromethane ($CH_2Cl_2$) extracts of the by-products (heads, shells, and tails) of Pandalus borealis, Pandalus hypsinotus, and Pandalopsis japonica belonging to the family Pandalidae were investigated and their bioactivities were compared. The antioxidant and cholinesterase inhibitory activities of the organic solvent extracts of three shrimp by-products were evaluated using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-Azino-bis[3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid] ($ABTS^+$) radical scavenging activities, reducing power and xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitory activity assays and Ellman's colorimetric method. The extracts of P. hypsinotus exhibited the highest antioxidant and cholinesterase inhibitory activities. The acetone extracts showed more potent activities toward antioxidant and cholinesterase inhibition compared with the $CH_2Cl_2$ extracts. Furthermore, the total carotenoid contents of the acetone extracts were higher than those of the $CH_2Cl_2$ extracts. Thus, the carotenoid contents may affect antioxidant and cholinesterase inhibition. Our results suggest that the shrimp by-products could act as a nutraceutical agent to prevent oxidative stress and Alzheimer's disease.

  • This study aims to analyze the effect of product information quality and source credibility on product arousal in fresh food website. Despite fresh food websites are selling products with various feature, prior studies have focused on consumer behavior for fresh food website characteristics or specific products without considering the feature of the products. Consumers' attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors vary depending on the feature of the product. In other words, depending on the category of product, the decision making process that consumers purchase products can be differ. So, we classify products considering the feature of these products to examine the effect of information quality and source credibility on product arousal into experience goods and search goods. We surveyed 288 consumers having experience of purchase in fresh food website and verified the hypothesis through One-way ANOVA by classifying the information quality and the source credibility as high level and low level. As a result, there was a difference in product arousal according to the product information quality level and the source credibility level for each product category exposed to the fresh food website. In experience goods, source credibility have a more important effect on product arousal than product information quality, and in search goods, product information quality have a more important effect on product arousal than source credibility.

  • As a result of life-style changes, consumer's concerns of food have shifted from calories and nutrition to health and convenience. Fresh-cut products are one such new direction for fruit and vegetable consumption. In this study, the vitamin C, mineral, and pesticide contents of various fresh-cut products were analyzed. According to sensory evaluations, the key reason for a lower than expected overall acceptability of many fresh-cut products is that they are likely to have browning and can easily lose their freshness. Also, the sensory evaluation showed that shriveling, the degree of browning, softening around the cut edge, and off-flavors were the primary factors affecting the quality of fresh-cut products. As a nutritional factor of quality, vitamin C content was not practical with regard to fresh-cut lettuce because the level was very low. For product safety, residual pesticides were detected in the fresh-cut products, but the results showed that all items were under permitted levels and considered safe. In evaluation of the microbial levels of the fresh-cut market products, the levels of viable cells, mold, yeast, coliform bacteria, and enterobacteriaceae were not significantly different based on the summer and winter seasons. The levels of S. aureus and Listeria spp. in the products were higher during the summer season than the winter.

  • The Hongseong-Gun school food service center (Hongseong SFSC) that is managed directly by local government is supplying local environmentally friendly foods from 2014. This study aimed to analyze a case on Hongseong SFSC and to propose improving directions. Hongseong SFSC showed higher supply ratio (67.4%) of local environmentally friendly foods compared to the other centers. The operation effects of this center are reliably price of farmer's products, increased consumption of local agri-products, school food confidence, and so on. But there are many problems on this operation. Improvement directions of SFSC for local food system are as follows: Firstly, the supply range of foodstuffs is needed to establish quality standards to increase foodstuffs quality. Secondly, guidelines for creating a fair commission fee structure should be established. Thirdly, the contract issues between the center and schools need to be resolved by governance system. Fourthly, local environmentally friendly agricultural cultivation and cropping systems are required to establish reliably supply of farmer's products.

  • Salmonella Enteritidis is responsible for causing foodborne diseases upon consumption of egg products. While cases of S. Enteritidis isolation from eggs have been reported in other countries, no such cases have previously been reported in Korea. In this study, we report the first isolation and identification of S. Enteritidis from domestically distributed eggs in Korea. Eggs were collected from eight countrywide grocery stores during different seasons between 2011 and 2012. Egg contents and washing solution of egg shells were incubated in buffered peptone water, and the enriched broth was further enriched in tetrathionate broth and Rappaport-Vassiliadis. The secondary enriched broth was streaked on xylose lysine desoxycholate agar. The suspected colonies were confirmed to S. Enteritidis by a biochemical test, serotyping, and PCR test. Genetic relatedness among the isolates was analyzed using Diversilab Salmonella kit. Three strains of S. Enteritidis were isolated from egg contents and egg shells collected from grocery stores of the Eumseong-city in the fall of 2011. All three stains showed resistance to chloramphenicol, streptomycin, nalidixic acid, and ampicillin by the disk diffusion method. In addition, the isolates showed more than 99% DNA homology, indicating that they were presumably identical strains. Therefore, there is a requirement to monitor and control against S. Enteritidis from eggs in Korea.

  • Plant cell walls consist of a variety of chemical constituents such as cellulose, humicelluloses, pertins, lignin, glycoproteins, etc. These components are strongly linked through hydrogen , covalent, ionic and hydrophobic bondings, which thus confers the self-protection capability on plants. Some processing by-products (hulls, brans, pomaces) of cereal, fruits and vegetables are very limited in further utilization due to their compact structural rigidity. In view of the fact that the plant cell walls are essentially composed of dietary fiber components , solubilization of the strong intermolecular linkage s can contribute to increasing the soluble dietary fiber content and thus diversifying the functional and physiological role of plant cell walls as dietary fiber sources. This article reviews the chemical constituents of cereals, fruits & vegetables and brown seaweeds with reference to their intermoleuclar linkages. An particular emphasis will be placed on the solubilizing phenomena of rigid plant cell walls by extrusion and the resulting change of functional properties. It is suggested that underutilized food resources, typically exemplified by various food processing by-products and surplus seaweeds, can be successfully modified toward improved functional performance by extrusion.

  • To support beneficial effects of makgeolli for human health, we investigated for the presence of 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoic acid (DHNA), a bifidogenic growth stimulator (BGS), from commercial makgeolli products. Among eleven makgeolli products (A~K), four showed positive peaks for DHNA in high performance liquid chromatography analysis. Makgeolli product A in particular contained the highest concentration of DHNA (0.44 ppm), as confirmed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Furthermore, BGS activity of the makgeolli product A was higher than those of products in which DHNA was not detected. These results indicate that makgeolli can be a good source for DHNA and that DHNA-enriched makgeolli could be developed by modifying manufacturing procedures and controlling its microbiota.
