Trimethylamine and dimethylamine contents of salted, hot-air dried, sun dried and boiled-dried samples of three commercial fishes, common mackerel, gizzard-shad and sardine, were analyzed and quantitatively compared at two different temperature conditions. The formation of both secondary amines was more rapid at $25^{\circ}C$ than at $10^{\circ}C$. And the content of dimethylamine in small sardine was comparatively higher than that in the other samples at both temperatures. Residual amounts of trimethylamine oxide of Halted common mackerel, gizzard-shad and boiled-dried small sardine were relatively higher than those of the other samples. Trimethylamine contents of sun dried samples were relatively higher than in the other samples, while those of boiled-dried small sardine was comparatively lower than those of the others. Dimethylamine content of sun dried samples were higher than those of the other samples, whereas those of boiled-dried small sardine and salted common mackerel were comparatively lower than those of the other samples.

The authors analyzed the daily catch data which were obtained from two different regions at the Southern Sea in Korea, Neungpo, Geoje island and Yangwhagum, Namhae island, during three or four years in 1978, 1981-1985, in order to know the fishing characteristics of the set net fisheries. The favorable fishing season was summer in the southern sea. The total catches during one year were greatly affected by those several day when the dominant species of fish were caught in large quantities. The dominant species of fish at Neungpo were little horse mackerel, sand lance, sardine, hair tail, spanish mackerel and common mackerel, and those at Yangwhagun were anchovy, little horse mackerel, sardine, spanish mackerel and gizzard shad, in order of catch. Especially, the little horse mackerel and the sardine appeared to make up very big schools at both Neungpo and Yangwhagum. The occurrence seasons of the dominant species were different by the region, but generally those were earlier at western part than at eastern part of the Southern Sea in Korea.

A method was developed to detect total mutagenicity of fried fish for S. typhimurium TA98, using Ames assay. Method described herein circumvented problems associated with the sample preparation for Ames assay, i.e., a multi-purification step of sample and interference with solvent residuals. Experiment A, the best method developed in the present study, consisted of two important steps: pH adjustment of the aqueous sample solution from fried fish samples to remove impurities, and simultaneous distillation extraction (SDE) for partially purified samples to remove volatile compounds from solvents. The procedure and results were described as below. Fillet of gizzard shad (Konosirus punctatus) fish sample fried for 10 min each side on the temperature-controlled fry-pan (210$\circ$C) was homogenized in an aqueous acidic solution (pH 2) with a homogenizer, followed by filtration through Celite. The tiltrate (pH 2), removed some impurities by extraction with chloroform:methanol (2:1, v/v) mixture, was adjusted pH to 10 and then centrifuged to remove precipitate. The ethylacetate extract from the tiltrate of pH 10 was rotoevaporated and purified by SDE apparatus for 2 hours. Experiment A revealed significantly higher revertants (1928 per 25 g fried sample) than other Experiment (B, C, or D) tested. Experiment A gave good results in the mutagenicity test of fried fish sample with few purification steps using only 25 g fried sample and 650 ml of solvents; and thus this method could be a useful tool for the screening the mutagenicity or antimutagenicity of other foods as well.

This study was designed to standardize the recipes of native local foods in Gijang region such as 'Miyeokseolchi', 'Molseolchi', 'Gijangumuk' and 'Seokbakji' and analyze their nutrients. The test recipe for each food was prepared according to the information obtained from the personal interview of Gijang natives and then applied to sensory evaluation. After that, CAN pro 3.0 was used for the nutritional evaluation. The results are as follows: Both Miyeokseolchi and Molseolchi were preferred with soybean sprouts added but Miyeokseolchi with fermented red pepper paste added. Gijangumuk was preferred with dissolved ceylon moss added, not filtered. Seokbakji was preferred with salt-fermented gizzard shad added. Nutrient analysis was performed according to the established standard recipe. In general, it appeared that energy content was low and amino acid contents such as glutamate, aspartic acid, leuicine and arginine were high. Major fatty acids in Miyeokseolchi and Molseolchi were a linoleic acid and Seokbakji has a palmitic acid and EPA.

Sea experiment for this study was carried out to develop a Trawl Escapement Net(TEN) using net material to improve the survival rate of undersized fishes that escaped from trawls in the Korean southern sea in May and November, 2005. Three kinds of Trawl Escapement Net(TEN) were examined to increase the escapement rate for fishes escaped from the TEN, and total catches in the codend and cover-net were investigated. The main catch species in the experimental fishing trials using a V shape TEN(A type) in May were Korean pomfret(Pampus echinogaster), slimy(Leiognathus nuchalis), gizzard shad(Konosirus punctatus), white croaker(Pennahia argentata) and smelt(Sillago sihama). In the experimental fishing trials using a V shape TEN with a protector for undersized fishes(B type) and a panel shape TEN with a protector(C type) in November, the main catch species were horse mackerel(Trachurus japonicus), sea pike (Sphyraena japonica), large-head hairtail(Trichiurus lepturus), kammal thryssa(Thryssa kammalensis), white croaker(Pennahia argentata), butterfish(Psenopsis anomala) and red gurnard(Lepidotrigla microptera). Most of large-sized fish species like Korean pomfret and Spanish mackerel could not escape through the TEN in the B type and C type. Catches of horse mackerel were highest in the experimental fishing of November and escapement rates for most fish species including horse mackerel were higher in the C type compared with B type.

The objective of this study was to provide fundamental information on fish swimming behavioral properties. Acoustic data was collected at nighttime from the $10^{th}$ to $12^{th}$ March, 2016 near Yokji Island in the South Sea of South Korea, and was analyzed using the fish track technique. This technique is to identify groups of single targets, which shows a pattern of systematic movement. As a result, the differences of the behavioral properties such as depth, swimming speed, vertical direction, horizontal direction, tortuosity, and depth change among days were minor; however, statistical results (Welch analysis of variance) showed significant difference between days. Especially, the target strength (TS) of the $11^{th}$ were significantly different from the $10^{th}$ and $12^{th}$. It could be assumed that gizzard shad, which was the dominant species from the catch on the $11^{th}$ March, might have affected this difference. The correlation between TS and other properties was very week. The significant difference seemed even small differences of average values because of the large data volume.

The lipids of ten major fishes caught in Korean seas were analyzed for fatty acid composition and for the content of $\omega-3$ polyunsaturated fatty acids. The major fatty acids present were hexadecanoic acid $(14{\sim}24%)$, hexadecenoic acid $(4{\sim}13%)$, octadecenoic acid $(8{\sim}29%)$, eicospentaenoic acid $(4{\sim}18%)$ and docosahexenoic acid $(6{\sim}33%)$. The ${\omega}-3$ polyunsturated fatty acids ranged from 18% to 48% of the total fatty acids depending on the species. The content of eicosapentaenoic acid was relatively high in sardine, gizzard shad and atka fish on the basic of fresh body weight, while that of docosahexaenoic acid was highest in hair tail and followed by atka fish and sardine.

The chemical composition of fish feeds(mackerel, gizzard shad, shrimp and formula feed) were analyzed and compared with those of untreated and irradiated (5 kGy) feeds, and the effects of gamma irradiation (5 kGy) and butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA, 200ppm) on feeds spoilage were investigated by determination of thiobarbituric acid (TBA) value and peroxide value for 14 days at $20^{\circ}C$, $4^{\circ}C$ or $-20^{\circ}C$. Crude protein, crude lipid, crude fiber, crude ash and nitrogen free extract were not significantly changed by gamma irradiation with the dose of 5 kGy. Immediately gamma irradiation increased the initiative oxidation of feeds as expected. But BHA was found to be greatly effective in minimizing the radiation-induced peroxidation (p<0.05). The TBA value and peroxide value increased with the elapse of the storage period. The level of lipid oxidation was increased depending on the rise in storage temperature. But the additions of BHA inhibited the lipid oxidation (p<0.05).

Wild and cultured fish including olive flounder, sea bass, rock bream, yellowtail, gray mullet, gizzard shad, black rockfish, red seabream and squid were collected from a fish market located on the coast of Korea, and the antibiotic content of their muscle was investigated. Tetracycline group antibiotics were not detected in the 108 individuals of 9 species of wild fish. However, oxytetracycline (OTC) and tetracycline(TC) were detected in some samples of the 111 individuals in 7 cultured live fish species. The detected ranges of OTC and TC were ND~ 0.06 and ND~ 0.03, respectively. Five different fluoroquinolone antibiotics were also tested for, but were not detected in the wild fish species. Only small amount of criprofloxacin(ND~0.029 mg/kg) were detected in a few cultured fish samples. Oxolinic acid was not detected in either wild and cultured fish samples. Results showed that even very low levels of antibiotics could be detected by the testing methods used. Antibiotics were identified in a few fish samples but levels were far below the maximum allowable limits of the Korean Food Code, and the safety of fish being sold in markets, with regard to antibiotic levels, was confirmed.

Nowadays, two types, Yumhae and Sikhae methods, remained as traditional seafood fermentation methods in Korea. In this study, flavor compounds in two types of salt-fermented fishes made by Yumhae method such as anchovy Engraulidae sp., shrimp Caridea sp., squid Decapodiformes sp., big eyed herring Clupea sp., gizzard shad Dorosoma sp. and hairtail Trichiurus sp., and made by Sikhae method such as Alaska pollack Gadus Chalcogrammus and squid. Volatile compounds detected in all salt-fermented fishes were composed mainly of aldehydes (45), ketones (39), alcohols (45), acids (12), esters (47), N-containing compounds (43), aromatic hydrocarbons (37), S-containing compounds (26), furans (10), and miscellaneous compounds (40) in salt-fermented fishes made by Yumhae method. Meanwhile, alcohols (47), terpenes (38), S-containing compounds (22), carbonyl compounds (19 aldehydes, 18 ketones), esters (13), and acids (14). Aroma-active compounds were identified by Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry/olfactometry and aroma extract dilution analysis in salt-fermented anchovy, shrimp and tuna (Thunnini sp.) sauce. Ethyl 2-methylbutanoate (candy/sweet) and 2-ethyl-3,5-dimethylpyrazine (nutty/baked potato-like) were predominant odorants in salt-fermented anchovy, whereas dimethyl trisulfide (cooked cabbage/soy sauce-like), 2-ethyl-3,5-dimethylpyrazine, and (E,E)-2,4-heptadienal (fatty/grainy) in salt-fermented shrimp, and dimethyl trisulfide, 3-methylbutanal (dark chocolate-like), and 3-methylthiopropanal (baked potato-like) in tuna sauce.
