The safety of pufferfish (Lagocephalus gloveri) liver oil and the contents of some nutritional components were examined to obtain important information on their use as high valued functional foods. Pufferfish liver oil was extracted by the hot-water method using $1\%$ NaOH solution to remove toxic compounds, and then purified using a general purifying method of fish oil. Any extraordinary clinical symptoms were not observed from all groups administrated with pufferfish liver oil throughout the test period. None of the rats died when administrated the highest concentration of 10 mL/kg of the pufferfish liver oil. Vitamin A content was 114.2 ppm, as a retinal equivalent in the oil extracted using hot-water, but the content was higher (169.3 ppm) in oil extracted using n-hexane. Vitamin D and E were not detected in ppm in oil extracted using hot-water. Vitamin D in the pufferfish liver oil extracted using n-hexane was also undetected, but vitamin E was at 32.5 ppm. Among the 18 minerals detected, the sodium content was the highest at 253.5 ppm, followed by 13.9 ppm ofpotassium, 1.5 ppm of calcium, 0.2 ppm of magnesium, and other trace minerals. The contents of EPA and DHA were $0.8\%\;and\;14.8\%$, respectively, in the pufferfish liver oil extracted using hot-water. Considering these results, there is potential that pufferfish liver oil could be used as a functional food.

Chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) meat oil contained high amounts of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) compared to oils extracted from other tissues of the fish. EPA and DHA occupied more than 25% of the total fatty acids in chum salmon meat oil. The main lipid classes in the meat oil were triacylglycerides and phospholipids. The major fatty acids of the molecular species composition of phosphatidylcholine isolated from the meat oil were DHA and EPA. DHA and EPA were the major molecular species in the phosphatidylcholine of chum salmon meat oil, representing 44% and 17%, respectively.

We studied the effects of aged total petroleum hydrocarbons (aged TPH) on the survival of allochthonous diesel-degrading Rhodococcus sp. strain YS-7 in both laboratory and field investigations. The aged TPH extracted from a crude-oil-contaminated site were fractionized by thin-layer chromatography/flame ionization detection (TLC/FID). The three fractions identified were saturated aliphatic (SA), aromatic hydrocarbon (AH), and asphaltene-resin (AR). The ratio and composition of the separated fractions in the aged TPH were quite different from the crude-oil fractions. In the aged TPH, the SA and AH fractions were reduced and the AR fraction was dramatically increased compared with crude oil. The SA and AH fractions (2 mg/l each) of the aged TPH inhibited the growth of strain YS-7. Unexpectedly, the AR fraction had no effect on the survival of strain YS-7. However, crude oil (1,000 mg/l) did not inhibit the growth of strain YS-7. When strain YS-7 was inoculated into an aged crude-oil-contaminated field and its presence was monitored by fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), we discovered that it had disappeared on 36 days after the inoculation. For the first time, this study has demonstrated that the SA and AH fractions in aged TPH are more toxic to an allochthonous diesel-degrading strain than the AR fraction.

A feeding trial was carried out to investigate the effect of various fish meals as dietary protein source on growth, feed utilization and body composition of Juvenile flounder. Ten experimental diets were prepared to contain different fish meals: 4 kinds of white fish meal (WM-1, 2, 3, 4), 3 kinds of herring meal (HM-1, 2, 3), mackerel meal (MM), WM mixture and HM+MM mixture. Dietary energy and protein levels were designed to be isocaloric ($3.8 kcal g^{-1}diet$) and isonitrogenous ($46\%$) by adjusting the levels of fish meal, wheat flour and squid liver oil. Three replicate groups of fish (initial mean weight: 11.1 g) were hand-fed to visual satiety two times daily for 7 weeks. Survival was not significantly different among all groups. Weight gain of fish fed the HM-1 and HM-3 diets was the highest, but not significantly different from that of fish fed the either WM-2 or HM+MM diets. The lowest weight gain was found in fish fed the W-1 and WM-3 diets. Feed efficiency and protein efficiency ratio of fish fed the WM-2, HM-1, HH-3, MM and HM+MM diets were significantly higher than those of fish fed other diets. Daily feed intake of fish fed the WM-3 diet was highest, but not significantly different from that oi fish fed the either WM-4 or WMM diet. Significant differences were found in contents of moisture, crude protein, crude lipid and ash of whole body of fish. The results of this study indicated that growth of flounder can be affected by dietary fish meal source and quality, and WM-2, HM-1, HM-3 and HM+MM mixture are considered as useful dietary fish meal sources under these experimental conditions.

The Gwugonsiuebang is a book of Korean woman's life in the Yi dynasty which published I 1653 by Mme. Jang. I have studied the food habits of the Yi dynasty that wrote in Gwugonsiueband as following. The staple foods are Guksu (wheat vemicell as like western noodles) 5, Mandu (bun stuffed with seasoned meat and vegetables) 6 kinds in this book. the side dishes are Guk (soup) 8, J'm (steamed meat or fish) 6, chae6, Nooruemi 5, Hyae (sliced raw fish) 3, Jockpyun (jellied beef soup) 3, Jockgall (salted sea food) 2, Jock (skewer or broach) 2, jihee 2, Sun (Steaming of stuffed vegetable) 1, Bockuem (saute) 1, Jon (pan fried fish) 1, Gui (meat or fish grilled with seasoning) 1, and the other 13 kinds. The desserts are D,ock (Korean rice cake) 11, jabgwa 8, Beverages 5 kinds and Jungwa 1 kind. The alcohol and fruits wine are 51 kinds. The alcohol and fruits wine are 51 kinds. The seasonings are Soybean sauce, oil, Sesamol oil, pepper, Ginger, Garlic, Vinegar, Wine, Salt, Bean paste etc. Raw materials of Guksu, Mandu, D'ock, Jabgwa, Beverage, Wine, vinegar are all carbohydrates. It shows that a tendency of Korean people too much take a carbohydrates. Now and then, there are no special difference of winter over pass for vegetables, fruits, dried beef, dried fish and salt fishes. In yi dynasty, there are 62 kinds of table ware and cooking kitchen utensils, but many of them come to uselessness. 19 kinds of measuring unit are very non-scientific because that is not by weight but by bulk or volume. There are many food making terms which are 198 kinds of prepared cooking term, 11 kinds of cutting term and 20 kinds of boiling term. And 10 kinds of expression of taste can see this book.

This study was carried out to investigate the influences of dietary levels, ratios and sources of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) on the growth and fatty acid compositions of juvenile olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus. Sixteen diets containing five levels of EPA (0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, 2.0%, and 4.0%), five levels of DHA (0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, 2.0% and 4.0%), three ratios of EPA/DHA (75/25, 50/50 and 25/75), two levels of squid liver oil (5% and 10%) and a control diet containing 5% soybean oil were hand-fed to triplicate groups of fish (average weight, $9.7{\pm}0.3g$) for 8 weeks. Survival, specific growth rate, feed efficiency and protein efficiency ratio of fish were not affected by dietary EPA and DHA levels or ratios. Also, the dietary treatment had no significant effect on the lipid and protein contents of muscle and whole body of fish. A corresponding increase in the EPA and DHA contents of fish occurred with increasing EPA and DHA levels in their diets. Our results suggest that juvenile olive flounder require a dietary EPA level of approximately 0.32% in the presence of 0.74% DHA for suitable survival and growth, and that EPA and DHA levels in fish muscle can increase to as much as 32% and 53%, respectively, of the total fatty acid content.

There is increasing awareness of the devastating socio-economic cost of cardiovascular disease. As a result there have been a lot of extensive researches both on basic mechanisms involved and on the areas of epidemiology and clinical trials. Now, it is being generally accepted that dietary n-3 fatty acids abundant in marine products, may reduce the incidence of cardiovascular disease. Fish oil, with its complement of n-3 fatty acids, has been shown to have diverse and sometimes potent actions on cells of the blood and vasculature, which may explain some of its positive effects on vascular disease. However, the appropriate intake of n-3 fatty acids has not been established. This may vary with desired effects, the duration of ingestion, the type of seafood or fish oil and amount of other fatty acids, especially nf fatty acid being consumed in the diet, Although the beneficial effects have been extensively studied, little is known about potential adverse effects with excessive intake of n-3 fatty acids. Thus, it is needed to study on the possible unfavorable effects including genetic effects.

This study was designed to observe the effect of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) supplementation on body fatness, fat cell sizes and leptin levels in male Sprague Dawley rats. Following weaning, forty rats were divided into 4 groups beef tallow (BT), fish oil (FO). beef tallow with CLA supplementation (BTC), and fish oil with CLA supplementation (FOC) group. For four weeks, all rats were fed experimental diets containing 12％ of total dietary fat (w/w) with or without 1％ CLA. After 4 weeks, the animals were sacrificed; the total carcass fat, plasma leptin levels, epididymal fat pad weights and fat cell sizes in adipose tissue were measured. CLA supplementation did not significantly affect the rat's body weights, total body fat, epididymal fat pad weights, and fat cell sizes. CLA also did not have a significant effect on plasma leptin levels. These results suggest that CLA supplement was not an effective way to reduce the body weights of male Sprague Dawley rats.

Peroxidative stimuli mediated by high polyunsaturated fatty acid administration in rats induced in vivo lipid peroxidation and resulted in increased urinary excretion of a number of lipophilic aldehydes and related carbonyl compounds. These secondary lipid peroxiation products, measured as 2, 4-dinitrophenylhydrazine deritives, were detected and identified by the newly developed HPLC method. The identified urinary lipophilic nonpolar aldehydes and related carbonyl compounds were butanal, butan-2-one, pentan-2-one, hexanal, hex-2-enal, hepta-2, 4-dienal, hept-2-enal, octanal, and oct-2-enal. Lipophilic polar aldehydes such as 4-hydroxyhex-2-enal and 4-hydroxyoct-2-enal were also identified. A polyunsaturated fatty acid diet containing n-3 fatty acids generally caused high levels of urinary excretion of lipophilic aldehydes and related carbonyl compounds in rats than a normal diet. Significantly increased secondary lipid peroxidation products were hexanal, hepta-2, 4-dienal, octanal, 4-hydroxyhex-2-exal, 4-hydroxyoct-2-enal, and a number of unidentified compunds.
