This study was aimed to provide safety management guidance by evaluating the microbial quality of cooked dried-seafoods in school foodservice operations. Nineteen seafood items were collected from six elementary schools, those were dried-anchovy, dried-seaweed and dried-fish, which were classified as cooking process. The temperatures at receiving and after cooking were measured and the analyses of cooking processes and microbial quality were performed. The temperatures of all foods after cooking were higher than the temperature limit of $74\^circC$. The number of total aerobic bacteria and S. aureus in dried-anchovy over the limit of $10^5$ and even the level of S. aureus was found to be unsatisfactory. The count of total aerobic bacteria was 2.1x$10^8$ CFU/g and the number of total aerobic bacteria after cooking was over the limit in one school. The level of E. coli (3.1x$10^3$ CFU/g) was over the limit at one school and the number of S. aureus (1.2×$10^4$ CFU/g) was considered as unacceptable. Dried- tangle and green laver were contaminated with total aerobic bacteria showing the over the limit. The numbers of total aerobic bacteria in dried- filefish, pollack and squid were 4.3x$10^6$, 3.4x$10^6$-3.9x$10^7$ and 4.6x$10^5$-4.1x$10^7$ CFU/g, respectively, which were in acceptable or unsatisfactory level. The E. coli in dried- filefish and pollack were over the limit. The total aerobic bacteria levels, 4.6x$10^5$-1.5x$10^6$ CFU/g in dried-pollack and 8.0x$10^5$-2.2x$10^7$ CFU/g in dried-squid, were over the limit after cooking except dried-filefish. The E. coli levels, 4.3x$10^3$ CFU/g in dried-filefish and 2.5x$10^2$ CFU/g in dried-pollack, were over the limit of $10^2$ CFU/g. The numbers of Enterobacteriaceae were either acceptable (3.3x$10^3$ CFU/g) or unsatisfactory (1.6x$10^4$ CFU/g) level in dried-pollack. S. aureus was unsatisfactory level (6.5x$10^4$ CFU/g) in dried-filefish while unacceptable in dried-pollack both before and after cooking. Unacceptable levels of S. aureus, 2.4x$10^4$ and 1.3x$10^5$ CFU/g were found from two schools, respectively. These results suggest that the contamination of raw materials and the seasonings added after cooking should be controlled to manage the microbial safety of cooked dried-seafoods.

Lipid characteristics of 6 species of fish frame (armored weasel-fish, AW; chum salmon, CS; spanish mackerel, SM; common mackerel, CM; conger eel, CE and skipjack tuna, ST) were studied by determining total lipid (TL) contents, lipid classes, and fatty acid composition. The highest yield of bone was obtained from ST frame (64.2%), followed by CS frame (57.9%), CE frame (54.6%), A W frame (41.6%), SM frame (41.7%), and CM frame (32.6%). The highest neutral lipid content was also found in total lipid (TL) from SM bone (23.3 g/100 g), followed by TL from CE bone (21.5 g/100 g), CS bone (16.0 g/100 g), and CM bone (15.5 g/100 g), while those from ST and A W bones were 7.2 g/100 g and 0.4 g/100 g, respectively. The prominent lipid classes of neutral lipids (NL) from all fish bones and muscles were triglyceride (TG), however, which was much lower in AW than in other fishes. The percentages of EPA and DHA in NL from fish bone were in the descending order of CS (29.3%), ST (27.1%), AW (27.0%), CM (25.7%), SM (21.6%), and CE (14.9%). Based on the lipid characteristics, the CS frame was the best resource for extraction of a functional lipid.

Nonliving Absidia coerulea and Thraustochitrium sp. were used as biosorbents to remove lead and cobalt that are one of representative pollutant in wastewater and radioactive liquid waste. The optimum pH range for maximum lead and cobalt removal was increased 6.5~11.4 and 8.6~12.0 for Absidia coerulea and 4.2~10.5 and 8.9~11.6 for Thraustochitrium sp. to compared to biosorbent-free control, pH of 8.4~11.2 and 10.5~11.5, respectively. With 1 g biosorbent/L at initial solution pH 5.0. Absidia coerulea and Thraustochitrium sp. took up lead from aqueous solutions to the extent of 104 and 125 mg/g biomass, respectively, whereas Absidia coerulea and Thraustochitrium sp. at initial pH 6.0 took up only 2 and 20 mg/g biomass of cobalt, respectively. For initial 500 mg Pb/L at initial pH 5.0. optimum amount of biosorbent for maximum lead uptake was 0.2 g/L for Absidia coerulea and Thraustochitrium sp., whereas optimum 3.0 g biosorbent/L was needed for initial 200 mg Co/L at initial pH 6.0. Absidia coerulea and Thraustochitrium sp. had higher adsorption capacity for lead than that of cobalt.

For the production of 6-hydroxynicotinic acid from nicotinic acid, bacteria capable of assimilating nicotinic acid as a sole carbon, nitrogen and energy source were isolated from soils. Among them, SH-007, newly isolated strain having the best acitivity of nicotinic acid hydroxylase was selected and identified as Pseudomonas sp. The specific acitivity of nicotinic acid hydroxylase of Pseudomonas sp. was highest when the strain was cultured at $30^{\circ}C$ for 24 hrs in the medium (pH 7.5) containing 2 g nicotinic acid, 1 g $(NH_4)_2SO_4$, and 0.5 g peptone per liter. The addition of 1.5 g/l of nicotinic acid into the 24 hrs incubated culture medium resulted in the 12% higher specific acitivity of nicotinic acid hydroxylase than that of the non-added control after further 18 hrs incubation. In the 6-hydroxynicotinic acid production through the reaction with resting cells, 2.22 g/l of 6-hydroxynicotinic acid was produced from 2 g/l of nicotinic acid after incubation of 3 hrs under optimum conditions, which correpsonds to 98.2% of theoretical 6-hydroxynicotinic acid yield.
