Sodium lactateand sodium citrate, traditional food preservatives, were added to extend the shelf-life of the loow-salted Myungran-jeot, and various chemical and microbiological analyses were carried out with Muungran-jeot, and various chemical and microbiological analyses were carried out with Myungran-jeot femented at 1$0^{\circ}C$. pH was decreased in the beginning stage of fermentation and then increased, whereas the content of lactic acid was increased during fermentation. But, lactic acid production of the low-salted Myungran-jeot with preservative were lower than control. The NH$_2$-N content of the low-salted Myungran-jot with sodium citrate was increased in the beginning of fermentation and then decreased. Sodium citrate inhibited the productions of VBN and TMA during the fermentation of Myungran-jeot, whereas sodium lactate inhibited the productions of VBN and TBA. Sodium lactate inhibited the growths of proteolytic bacteris and fungi. The estimated shelf-lives of the Myungran-jeot with control, sodium lactate, and sodium citrate were about 11, 13, and 13 days, respectively.

Natural seasoning are trends of food industries to replace synthesized seasoning due to consumer preference. However, unexpected results can be happened in a point of sensory evaluation and physico-chemical properties by adding natural seasoning such as reduced flavor, color change and so on. Therefore, this study aimed to verify the potential of sea tangle Saccharina japonica extract fermented by lactic acid bacteria (STE) for myungran (pollock roe)-jeot instead of present synthesized seasoning. Among various STE concentration (0%, 5%, 10%, and 15%) in myungranjeot, there was no significant physicochemical changes in a point of crude lipid, pH, total acidity, salinity and color difference. Microbiological profiles was also not significantly different. The 10% STE-myungran-jeot showed higher ${\gamma}$-aminobutyric acid (GABA) content as 24.4 mg/100g at free amino acid analysis than other STE-myungran-jeot without decline of sensory properties. In overall, it revealed that STE could replace the synthesized seasoning and improve the quality of Myungran-jeot. The results suggest that STE can be useful to develop a Korean traditional fermented food.

To determine the shelf-life of low salted Myungran-jeot (low salted and fermented Alaska pollack roe), various chemical, microbiological and sensory analyses were carried out with Myungran-jeot stored at 10 days. The lactic acid content was slowly increased in the early stage of storage but then was rapidly increased with lengthening storage period, while pH was decreased during storage. The $NH_2-N$ content was steady at 10 days and peaked at 17 days. The production of VBN was increased to over $30mg\%$ at 19 days. In microbiological tests, the viable cell count and halotolerant bacteria were $1.5\times10^3\;and\;5.5\times10^3CFU/g$, respectively, at the initial state, but they slowly increased to $10^7 CFU/g$ at 17 days. Yeast or fungi did not appear on the surface of Myungran-jeot. Sensory evaluation showed that the original torture of Myungran-jeot in the mouth was a very important indicator for acceptability. Sensory characters and acceptability of Myungran-jeot at 17 days were not significantly different from those of the initial state. From these results, the estimated shelf-life of Myungran-jeot whom sealed with aluminum coated paper, was about 18 days in this study.

In order to extend the shelf-life of the low-salted Myungran-Jeot, before immersing alaska pollack roe, the salt solutions was adjusted to pH 7.0 and 4.7, respectively. pH during ripening was somewhat constant, whereas the content of lactic acid was slightly increased, and especially, that of pH 4.7 Myungran-Jeot was increased rapidly in the begining of fermentation period. $NH_2-N$ content of pH 4.7 Myungran-Jeot was increased with increasing fermentation period, whereas those of control and pH 7.0 decreased except the begining of fermentation period. The contents of TMA, TBA, and VBN of pH 4.7 were lower than those of control and pH 7.0. In addition, the mirrobial growth was significantly inhibited in pH 4.7 Myungran-Jeot. The estimated shelflives of control, pH 7.0, and pH 4.7 Myungran-Jeots were about 12, 12, and 16 days, respectively.

The biggest Problem of low-salted Jeot-gal is the reduction of its shelf-life. Chitosan, glucono $\delta-lactone, $ and sykeeper were added to extend the shelf-life of low-salted Myungran-jeot, and various chemical and microbiological analyses were carried out during fermentation at $10^{\circ}C.$ Sykeeper inhibited the increase in pH, and production of lactic acid, VBN, TMA, TBA, and the microbial growth, whereas enhanced the production of amino-N. But, chitosan and glucono $\delta-lactone$ had no significant difference from the control. The estimated shelf-life periods of low-salted Myngran-jeot fermented at $10^{\circ}C$ for control, chitosan, glucono $\delta-lactone, $ and sykeeper were about 14, 12, 16, and 19 days, respectively.

Alaska pollock roe is mainly used for the production of salt-seasoned and fermented seafood (Myungran-jeot). Alaska pollock roes with broken egg membrane are usually discarded as a waste product. In this study, the broken roes of Alaska pollock were salt-seasoned and stuffed into cellulose casing for commercial production. The chemical and microbial changes of the broken roes of Alaska pollock stuffed into cellulose casing fermented at 5 and $25^{\circ}C$, respectively, were analyzed at different ripening periods. On 5 week fermentation, pH decreased down to 5.60 and 5.10 at 5 and $25^{\circ}C$, respectively, but the amounts of lactic acid, amino-nitrogen, and volatile basic nitrogen increased continously as ripening period increased, higher at 25 than $5^{\circ}C$. The amounts of amino-nitrogen, 620 and 780 mg/100 g, were the highest on 3 week fermentation at $5^{\circ}C$ and on 1 week at $25^{\circ}C$, respectively. The numbers of total viable cell and lactic acid bacteria, $3.1{\times}10^6$ and $3.1{\times}10^5\;CFU/g$ at $5^{\circ}C$, and $1.9{\times}10^7$ and $2.8{\times}10^6\;CFU/g$ at $25^{\circ}C$, respectively, were the highest on 2 week fermentation.

About 75 strains which utilize cholesterol as sole carbon and energy source were isolated from 10 samples of Kimchi and 18 samples of fermented fish food (2 Ojingo-jeots, salt-fermented squid ; 5 Changran-jeots, salt-fermented pollack tripe ; 5 Myungran-jeots, salt-fermented Alaska pollack roe ; 3 Gajami-sikhae-jeots, fermented flat fish ; 2 Gul-jeots, salt-fermented oyster ; a Juneo-jeots, salt-fermented shad). Among them tested, the 3T6-5Mj strain isolated from Changran-jeot showed the highest activity on cholesterol degradation. The optimal composition of medium for the producing cholesterol degradation enzyme by 3T6-5Mj strain was 1.0 g/L NH4NO3, 1.0 g/L K2HPO4, 0.1 g/L MgSO4.7H2O, 1.0 g/L FeSO4.7H2O, 1 g/L NaCl, 5 g/L Trypton, 1 g/L Cholesterol, and 5 g/L Maltose at 30$^{\circ}C$, pH 7.5, and the enzyme production reached a maximum level at 140 hours of cultivation.
