Phytoplankton samples, collected about twenty day interval on May of 1967, at same twenty-one stations located in the north-eastern Korea Strait were examined in an attempt to determine the specific distribution and abundance of phytoplankton. Water bottle samples preserved with neutralized formula were used for the phytoplankton study. In May, water temperature and salinity show both lower at the sea of Korea side than that of Japan side, and both indicate gradually higher to the sea of Japan side. Fourty-six species of diatoms and three species of dinoflagellates in early May, and thirty-six species of diatoms and six species of dinoflagellates in the May were detected. Among them thirty species of diatoms and two species of dinoflagellates were appeared commonly in both cruise. Chaetoceros curvisetus and Rhizosolenia castracanei were wide distributed species, and Leptocylindrus danicus was the most numerous species at this sea in May. In generally, the sea of Korea side was more rich in species and numbers of phytoplankton.

The effects of adding fish surimi to Appenzeller cheese on quality characteristics during ripening were investigated. Cheese samples were prepared with 1.0% surimi. Changes in chemical composition, lactic acid bacterial population, pH, non-casein nitrogen, non-protein nitrogen, water-soluble nitrogen, a consumer sensory evaluation test, chromaticity, texture, and proteolysis were monitored during ripening. The electrophoretic patterns of cheese proteins and the functional components originating from the surimi were investigated. Adding surimi did not affect the appearance or consumer sensory characteristics of the cheeses. Significantly higher amounts of crude fat and moisture were observed in the cheese supplemented with surimi than in cheese without added surimi.

This study analyzed the food safety in processing process of simple-processed fishery products. A total of 88 samples analyzed for the presence of pathogenic bacteria and physicochemical hazards. No major foodborne pathogenic bacteria, such as Salmonella sp., Listeria monocytogenes and Escherichia coli O157:H7, were detected in any of the samples. However, Bacillus cereus (12 samples, 13.6%) and Staphylococcus aureus (15 samples, 17.0%) were frequently detected in both the intermediate processing stages and the final products, although cell populations were not high. Very small amounts of heavy metals and histamine were detected in some samples, in quantities that did not exceed the safe guidelines according to Korean Government regulations. Similarly, no other physical hazards such as foreign material were observed in any of the samples. We concluded that there are no significant pathogenic bacteria or physicochemical food hazards in simply processed fish products from Korea. The present study strongly suggests that increased food sanitation measures should be implemented to decrease the prevalence of S. aureus in simple-processed fishery products.

The acute toxicities of two major anti-pathogenic veterinary medicines, i.e., ciprofloxacin and enrofloxacin, and six benzimidazole anthelmintics, i.e., albendazole, thiabendazole, flubendazole, febantel, fenbendazole, and oxfendazole, were evaluated with a marine bacterium, Vibrio fischeri, and invertebrate Daphnia magna. These veterinary medical products have been widely used for farm animals, but their impact on aquatic fauna has seldom been investigated. In general, daphnids responded as much as 3 orders of magnitude more sensitively to the tested pharmaceuticals than the microbes. For Daphnia, the most toxic product among the tested anthelmintics was fenbendazole, followed by flubendazole > albendazole ${\approx}$ febantel > thiabendazole > oxfendazole. Daphnids' EC50 values obtained from 48 to 96 hrs of fenbendazole exposure ranged from 2.7 to 6.3 ug/L. The mixture toxicity of the test pharmaceuticals was generally additive in nature and was well predicted by a concentration addition model. Using the predicted no effect concentrations (PNECs) of the benzimidazole derivatives estimated from this study, and predicted environmental concentrations (PECs) of these pharmaceuticals, the risk quotients of each anthelmintics were calculated. Most of the test anthelmintic compounds resulted in risk quotients greater than 1. Especially, risk quotient for fenbendazole was 2,791, which strongly indicates this compound might cause severe ecological consequences, should no future action be taken. This study is the first report on the aquatic toxicities and potential ecological risk of major anthelmintic and antimicrobial veterinary products in Korea. The result of this study provides information necessary for conducting more detailed ecological risk assessment of pharmaceutical products in ambient water and guiding proper management decision.

It has recently been reported that methanol fuel has been used in the product carrier with established duel fuel engine, which has been greatly reducing emissions of $CO_2$, NOx and SOx from the engine. However, to use methanol alone as fuel oil in a general diesel engine, design modification of cylinder head is needed because the ignition aid device or the duel fuel injection system is needed. On the other hand, only if the mixer is installed on the fuel oil supply line, diesel oil - methanol blending oil can be used as fuel oil for the diesel engine, but there is a problem of the phase separation when two fuels are mixed. In this study, diesel oil and methanol were blended compulsorily in preventing the phase separation with installing agitators and a fuel oil boost pump on fuel line of a test engine. Also, cylinder pressure and fuel consumption quantity were measured according to engine load and methanol blending ratio, and indicated mean effective pressure, heat release rate and combustion temperature obtained from the single zone combustion model were analyzed to investigate the effects of latent heat of vaporization of methanol on combustion stability and characteristics. As a result, the combustion stability and characteristics of 10% methanol blending oil are closest to the those of diesel oil, and it could be used as fuel oil in existing diesel engines without deterioration of engine performance and combustion characteristics.

The pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas has a desirable taste and flavor that differs from those of other fish and shellfish. In order to develop a high value-added product from individually quick-frozen oyster extract (IQFOE), we prepared an oyster granular flavor seasoning (OGS) from IQFOE and characterized its qualities. The OGS was prepared by granular molding and fluidized bed drying with inosine monophosphate (IMP, 0.1%), yeast extract powder (1.4%), tangle extract powder (0.6%), monosodium glutamate (MSG, 5.0%), microcrystalline cellulose (0.6%), lactose (27.5%), salt (33.0%), spray-dried IQFOE (22.5%) as a powdered materials, and IQFOE ($Brix\;25^{\circ}$, 7.0%), soy sauce (0.4%) and water (1.7%) as a liquid materials. The moisture, crude protein, pH and salinity of the OGS were 3.4%, 12.5%, 6.50 and 32.0%, respectively. Especially, the OGS revealed very higher amino-N content (1,856.0 mg/100 g) than that (1,291.2-1,610.2 mg/100 g) of other commercial flavor seasonings. In taste-active compounds, free amino acid contents was 1,359.0 mg/100 g, and major ones were glutamic acid, taurine, hydroxyproline, glycine, lysine, phosphoserine, proline in order. And OGS showed good organoleptic qualities for taste, odor and general preference compared with commercial flavor seasonings on a local market.

To develop a value-added product from individually quick-frozen oysters Crassostrea gigas (IQFO), we prepared a retort pouched oyster soup (RPOS) from IQFOs and characterized its processing conditions and quality metrics. We found that the most appropriate manufacturing process for the RPOS consisted of half-thawing and washing raw IQF oysters, blanching, adding them to the retort pouch along with other ingredients (base soup stock, IQF oyster extract, radish, bean sprouts, garlic, and red pepper), sealing, retort sterilization ($120^{\circ}$, F0-value 10 min.), cooling, and packaging inspection. The moisture, crude protein, pH and salinity of the RPOS were 91.0%, 2.8%, 6.20 and 0.9%, respectively. The total amino acid content of the RPOS was 2,163.8 mg/100 g, and the main amino acids were glutamic acid, aspartic acid, leucine, proline, lysine and arginine. The primary inorganic ions were Na, K, S and Zn. In taste compounds, total free amino acid content was 313.4 mg/100 g, and the main free amino acids were glutamic acid, taurine, proline, hydroxyproline, aspartic acid, glycine, alanine, valine, lysine and arginine. This RPOS has good storage stability and organoleptic qualities compared with commercial retort pouched shellfish soup, and is suitable for commercialization as a value-added instant seafood soup.
