This study was conducted to investigate 1he quality characteristics of 1he soybean anchovy sauces added with medicinal herbs, Saururu chinensis Baill. and Houttuynia cordata Thunb. and fermented for 4 months. The total nitrogen content of 1he soybean anchovy sauce increased with the fermentation time showing the highest values in the sauce with Houttuynia cordata Thunb.. The contents of total sugar and reduced sugar were high in the order of the sauces with Houttuynia cordata Thunb.(sauce T), with Saururu chinensis Baill.(sauce B), and control. The content of salt decreased much more in the sauces with medicinal herbs. After 4 months of fermentation, pH was lowered from 5.86 to 5.27 in control, to 5.38 and 5.54 in sauce B and sauce T, respectively. Generally the total aerobic bacterial count increased until 3 months of fermentation and then decreased, and the addition of medicinal hems reduced the count especially showing apparent reduction in the sauce T. During the fermentation, total protease activity generally increased with the highest value in the sauce T. In the changes of nucleotides and their related compounds, the contents of AMP, ADP, and ATP were increased and hypoxanthine decreased during the fermentation, and IMP produced after 3 months. The soybean anchovy sauce B had 1he highest IMP and the lowest hypoxanthine after 4 months. The content of total amino acids increased showing 177.1 mg% and 134.7 mg% in the sauce B and sauce T respectively compared with 171.2 mg% of control. The contents of glutamic acid and aspartic acid were 29.2 mg% in sauce B and 34.3 mg% in sauce T, which were higher compared with 25.9 mg% of control. The fermented soybean anchovy sauce had 1he functionality of ACE inhibition with 70.5% (control), 72.5% (sauce B) and 81.6% (sauce T). In the results of sensory evaluation, the sance T scored the highest and the sauce B was preferred to control.

The optimal conditions of enzymatic hydrolysis for preparation of rapid salted and fermented anchovy sauce (SFAS) using various pretenses such as trypsin, chymotrypsin, crude enzyme from squid liver and viscera, Alcalase, Neutrase and Protamex were studied. SFAS prepared with squid viscera had higher level of VBN (173.6 mg/100 g) when stored for 70 days than other samples, and peroxide values were almost equal among all samples during fermentation period. Total amino acids and nonprotein nitrogenous compounds remarkably increased as SFAS treated with Alcalase or Protamex which exhibited higher the hydrolysis rate of $57\%$ at 60 day than others. The optimal pHs of trypsin, chymotryosin, Alcalase, Neutrase and Protamex on anchovy actomyosin were 7.5, 6.5, 6.5, 7.0 and 5.0, respectively. Optimal temperatures of trypsin, chymotryosin, Alcalase and Neutrase were 55, 45, 60 and $55^{\circ}C$, respectively. Otherwise, Protamex activity increased as temperature increased from 20 to $70^{\circ}C$. Protamex had higher $K_m$ (3.545) and $V_{max}$ value (2.688) than others. Protamex affected less by NaCl had $52.5\%$ activity at the fermentation condition of $20^{\circ}C$ and $25\%$ NaCl. Protamex appeared to be very effective for the hydrolysis of crude actomyosin from ancnovy.

Fermented anchovy pickle isone of the favorite sea food in Korea made from anchovy (Engraulis japonica) and salt. Lipid oxidation and proteolysis in the salted anchovy were rapidly occured at the early stage of ripening and the rate of proteolysis seemed to be sligtly delayed with the ripening. The major fatty acids in the raw anchovy were saturated of acids $C_{16:0}$, $C_{18:0}$ and $C_{14:0}$ while most of unsaturated acids were $C_{22:6}$, $C_{18:1}$and $C_{16:1}$ and they marked 30.8% ana 48.7% to the total fatty acids, respectiyely. When the pickle was ripened for 91 days, $C_{14:0}$$C_{16:0}$ acids were greatly increased, whereas $C_{22:6}$, $C_{20:5}$ and $C_{20:1}$acids were decreased. The main fatty acids of lipids of the anchovy pickle were $C_{16:1}$ and $C_{18:1}$ (30%). Amino acid composition of the HCl hydrolysates of raw anchovy showed big·her contents of glutamic acid, Iysine, aspartic acid, leucine and alanine while the contents of tryptophan, methionine, tyrosine, serine and phenylalanine were the lower. In free amino acid composition, the raw anchovy contained much of histidine, alanine, leucine, Iysine and arginine, and the anchovy pickle ripened for 91 days showed higher levels in the contents of lysine, leucine, glutamic acid, alanine and aspartic acid. In the ripened anchovf pickle aspartic acid, glycine, glutamic acid, isoleucine and valine incressed whereas thistidine decreased.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of anchovy sauce fermented using Nuruk to maintain a unique flavor, reduce fishy smell, and improve the fermentation rate. Six kinds of fermented fish sauces, including the control, fermentation using traditional Nuruk; SH Koji (Fs-A), JJ Koji (Fs-B), GJ Koji (Fs-C); and fermentation with improved Nuruk; Aspergillus luchuensis (Fs-D) and Aspergillus oryzae (Fs-E), were prepared. Samples were collected at 15 days intervals with 10% Nuruk added to raw anchovy and fermented at 25o C for 60 days. The free amino acids, especially glutamic acid content and amino nitrogen, were the highest in Fs-C, reflecting the high protease activity of Nuruk C (GJ). Regarding overall sensory evaluation, the control was the lowest, whereas Fs-C was highly evaluated among the sample groups. The addition of Nuruk not only shortened the fermentation period, but also increased the overall sensory level by adding umami and reducing fishy odor.

The myeolchi-jeot samples were divided into different groups with or without the supplementation with biogenic amines. Subsequently, the samples were placed in an oven at $80^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr to allow the chemical reaction to proceed, and then were analyzed for N-nitrosamine contents using GC-TEA. N-nitrosamine was not detected in any of the myeolchi-jeot samples which had been treated with/without sodium nitrite. On the other hand, the yield of N-nitrosopyrrolidine from 1,000 mg/kg of putrescine and spermidine in the myeolchi-jeot samples (treated with 5 mg/kg of sodium nitrite) was 0.002 and 0.014%, respectively. N-nitrosamine was not produced from any other biogenic amines like, histamine, tyramine, cadaverine and spermine. In addition, curing and heating were the factors which influenced the formation of N-nitrosamine during the nitrosation of biogenic polyamines. For the formation of N-nitrosamine in the food systems, treatment with sodium nitrite and heating at appropriate temperature along with the satisfied supplementation of biogenic polyamines are required.

To investigate difference of components changes in salt-fermented anchovy, Engaulis japonicus sauce during 18 months fermentation by tank size, various chemical properties were examined at 2$\~$3 months intervals. The contents of total and amino nitrogen, total ATP related compounds increased gradually during 18 months of fermentation, and showed higher content in salt-fermented anchor sauce produced by large tank scale (LTS) product than those of small tank scale (STS) product during fermentation. Hypoxanthine and uric acid were the most abundant in ATP related compounds, ranging from $81.1\%$ to $90.4\%$, The cross point of inosine (HxR) + hypoxanthine (Hx) and uric acid was faster in LTS with 10.3 months fermentation than in STS with 12.6 months fermentation. After 18month of fermentation, the LTS was rich in free amino acids, such as glutamic acid, alanine, aspartic acid, valine, Iysine in that order. On the other hand, the STS was rich in free amino acids, glutamic acid, aspartic acid, alanine, vsine, valine in that order. Absorbance at 453 nm were higher in STS than in STS, but was no difference the rate of increase during fermentation.
