To develop a value-added low-salt fermented seafood with a long shelf-life, we prepared seasoned low-salt fermented Omandungi Styela plicata supplemented with fermentation alcohol (SOE). The SOE was produced by washing and dewatering shelled Omandungi, followed by cutting and salting for 24 h at 0±1℃. The salted Omandungi was seasoned and fermented with garlic, ginger, monosodium glutamate, red pepper, sesame, sorbitol, and sugar, for 7-8 days at 0±1℃. After adding 3-5% fermentation alcohol, the seasoned fermented Omandungi was packed in a polyester container. The salinity, volatile basic nitrogen content, and viable cell count of SOE were 4.8%, 22.1-22.2 mg/100 g, and (1.2-1.9)×10³ CFU/g, respectively. Compared with the control, addition of 3-5% fermentation alcohol inhibited the decrease in freshness, texture degradation, and growth of residual bacteria. Additionally, the SOE showed good storage stability and organoleptic qualities when stored at 4±1℃ for 40 days. The total amino acid content of SOE was 2,186.0 mg/100 g, mainly comprising glutamic acid, aspartic acid, lysine, and phenylalanine. The free amino acid content was 189.0 mg/100 g, and mainly included taurine, glutamic acid, methionine, alanine, and proline.

Squid jeotgal is a very popular traditional, salted, and fermented seafood in Korea. Due to the development of a distribution structure, a lot of imported squid jeotgal has recently entered Korea. In this study, we analyzed and compared the microbial contamination levels of domestic and imported squid jeotgal. The total viable bacterial count in domestic and imported jeotgal was 5.20 and 5.38 log CFU/g, respectively. The highest contamination level was 6.94 log CFU/g in one of the imported squid jeotgal samples. Coliforms were not detected in domestic jeotgal but were detected at 50% with 2.21 log CFU/g in imported jeotgal. Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus were not detected (ND: <1 log CFU/g) in both domestic and imported jeotgal. All samples of jeotgal were negative for Bacillus cereus and Clostridium perfringens. The microbial contamination levels determined in the current study may be utilized as primary data to execute microbial risk assessments on domestic and (or) imported jeotgal.

Verotoxin-1 (VT-1) or Shiga-like toxin 1 (Stx-1) is produced by enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) and is an AB5 holotoxin with a strong inhibitor of protein synthesis. VT-1 is a type 2 ribosome-inactivating protein (RIP) that has been shown to have cytotoxic and anticancer potential by inducing necrosis, apoptosis, and cell cycle arrest, making it a promising antitumor candidate. Here, we tested the cytotoxicity of VT-1 on CaCo2 and NCM425 cell lines and the results showed that VT-1 was more potent on CaCo2. Morphological changes were also evaluated on the cellular level and the results showed that VT-1 caused a decrease in viable cell count, altered cell membrane permeability, and an increase in total nuclear intensity. On the other hand, VT-1 displayed a lesser impact on mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and cytochrome c release. On the expression of caspases 3 and 9, VT-1 exhibited an insignificant effect on both which alongside the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and cytochrome c results, might indicate that CaCo2 suffered from the necrosis process as a mechanism of cell death after exposure to VT-1.

The optimum dosage of quicklime in producing organic fertilizer using livestock wastes vith a greater than 80% water content was analysed. After one day had elapsed to allow for the organic fentilizer to dry, the quicklime dosage and the composition of the organic fertilizer were analysed. Any from done to the organic fertilizer was also assessed. The amount of the quicklime required to stabilize livestock wastes was determined by water content of livestock wastes. For J farm(slurry style) of which livestock wastes have 94.6% of water concentration, less than 3% of total amount of livestock wastes, for H farm (scraper style) of which livestock wastes have 85% of water concentration, less then 4% of total livestock wastes and Y farm(traditional style) of which livestock wastes have 80% of water concentration, less then 5% of total livestock wastes. Generally, in order to pack the organic fertilizer, water containing quicklime0stabilized livestock wastes should be less than 35%. It takes 9 days to keep this water content for the wastes from H and Y farms(less than 85% in water content), and 12 days for the wastes from J (94.6% in water content). According to the classification standard for compost constitution by Higgins, the crude fertilizers from all 3 farms had high grade $K_2O$ and CaO, the middle grade T-N and middle or low grade $P_2O_5$. Stabilization by quicklime is known to inhibit bacterial decomposition of organic matter and the activity of pathogenic organisms. In this study, more then 99.99% of coliform group, fecal group and viable cell count were reduced. Our results indicate that livestock wastes of greater 80% water content could be used to produce organic fertilizer without the addition of a material for moisture control.

Three sheep fitted with cannulas in the rumen and the caecum were used in a $3{\times}3$ Latin square design to study the changes in ruminal and caecal microbial populations and their metabolite composition with ammoniated rice straw feeding. The 3 diets contained either 80% untreated rice straw (UTS) or ammoniated rice straw (ATS) and 20% formula feed. These were a control diet (C), a urea supplemented diet (U) containing urea at 1.1% and an ammoniated rice straw diet (AT). Data were analyzed by analysis of variance and means separated by the Student Neumann Kuel's multiple comparison. AT feeding increased ruminal bacterial counts, in particular cellulolytic bacterial counts (p < 0.05) which were 1.8, 2.4 and 7.0 (${\times}10^6/ml$ ruminal fluid) for C, U and AT, respectively. There was an increasing tendency (p < 0.10) in ruminal fungal population with U; values were 2.0, 5.2, 3.1 (${\times}10^3/ml$ ruminal fluid) for C, U and AT, respectively. Ruminal protozoa counts were not significantly (p > 0.05) altered with diets. Caecal total viable bacterial count with AT was about thrice the value with C. Total VFA concentration in the rumen was significantly increased (p < 0.025) (7.7 mmol/dl for C and 8.2 mmol/dl for AT) and correspondingly, pH lowered when AT was fed. Sheep on AT tended to produce less acetate and more butyrate in the rumen without significance (p > 0.05). Similar to the rumen, total VFA concentrations of 4.4, 3.8 and 5.2 mmol/dl were detected, respectively, for C, U and AT. Caecal ammonia-nitrogen concentrations were about six-fold of that in the rumen, though there were no differences (p > 0.05) among treatments.

우리나라의 전통적인 젓갈류는 염도가 지나치게 높고 제조 방법이 단순하고 비위생적으로 생산되는 경우가 많아 고품질 젓갈 제품의 생산을 위해서는 새로운 공정 개발이 필요한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구는 명란을 액 염지법으로 염도를 8%로 줄이고 진공 숙성기법으로 맛을 강화시켜 새로운 명란 젓갈을 제조하였다. 또한 저염 젓갈의 저장성을 높이기 위하여 진공 발효시켜 저장하면서 숙성 형태별 숙성 기간에 따른 이화학적 성분의 변화를 조사한 결과 명란 젓갈의 수분, pH 및 염도 변화는 숙성 기간이 경과함에 따라 큰 차이 없이 감소하는 경향이었고 수분은 무진공(상압) 숙성시에 약간 더 감소하는 것으로 나타났으며 휘발성 염기 질소(VBN) 및 구성 아미노산의 함량은 숙성형태에 상관없이 숙성이 진행됨에 따라 약간씩 증가하였고 VBN의 함량이 상압숙성에서 높은 경향이었고 총 구성아미노산은 진공 숙성시에 더 많게 나타났다. 총균수 역시 어느 정도 증가했다가 다소 감소하는 경향은 비슷하나 진공 숙성에 비해 상압 숙성시에 높았다. 이상의 결과로 볼 때, 명란젓갈의 숙성시 진공처리는 전반적인 젓갈의 숙성을 지연시켜주며 젓갈의 품질 유지 기간에도 효과적으로 나타났다.
