Endo- and exoproteases were used to hydrolyze Alaska pollack processing scrap. In 2 stage hydrolysis, the optimal conditions by Protamex were: temperature, $45.8^{\circ}C$; pH, 6.73; enzyme concentration, 0.11%; time, 105.5 min, whereas those by Flavourzyme were: temperature, $42.0^{\circ}C$; pH, 6.54; enzyme concentration, 0.28%; time, 20.4 hrs. But, the optimal conditions of 1 stage hydrolysis by equal proportion of Protamex and Flavourzyme were: temperature, $52.9^{\circ}C$; pH, 6.3; enzyme concentration, 0.46%; time 10.9 hrs. The contents of carbohydrate and ash were higher in the 2 stage hydrolyzate than the 1 stage, while that of crude lipid was in the reverse order. There were no significant differences in the contents of moisture and crude protein between both methods. The contents of total creatine and IMP, and viable cell counts were higher in the 1 stage hydrolyzate than the 2 stage, while the contents of TMAO, TMA, and Hx was in the reverse order. But, there were no significant differences in the contents of amino-N and color between both methods. The free amino acid contents of the 1 and 2 stage hydrolyzate were 2,741.77 and 3,529.47 mg/100 mL, respectively.

High Temperature-cooking conditions of cultured fishes(loach, crucian carp, bastard halibut, and jacopever) were optimized by response surface methodology(RSM), and plastein products were prepared using enzymatic hydrolysis. Four models were proposed with regard to effects of time(t), temperature(T), and water/fish meat (w/f) ratio on the amount of 0.3M TCA soluble fractions. The model coefficients were ranged from p<0.0001 for jacopever to p<0.0433 for bastared halibut. Cooking conditions for 60% hydrolysis were optimized at 1) 14$0^{\circ}C$ except for crucian carp(136$^{\circ}C$); 2) 10.08 hours(loach), 7.25 hours(crucian carp), 9.85 hours(ba-stard harlibut), and 9.37 hours(iacopever); 3) 1:1(w/f) ratio except for the crucian carp(1.1:1). When protein hydrolyzates were employed for the plastein synthesis, optimum plastein-reaction conditions were determined to be pH 9.0 with chymotrypsin for the loach and crucian carp hydrolyzates, pH 9.0 with papain for the bastard halibut hydrolyzate, and pH 11.0 with trypsin for the jacopever hydrolyzate. Plastein reaction could be performed in water at concentration up to 20%(w/f).

The potential antioxidative activity of water-soluble enzymatic hydrolyzates from a kelp, Ecklonia cava was evaluated by free radical scavenging and lipid peroxidation assays. To prepare water-soluble hydrolyzates from E. cava the seaweed was enzymatically hydrolyzed by five carbohydrases (Viscozyme, Celluclast, AMG, Termamyl and Ultraflo) and five proteases (Protamex, Kojizyme, Neutrase, Flavourzyme and Alcalase). Among all the hydrolyzates, Celluclast hydrolyzate effectively scavenged free radicals released from DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2- pricrylhydrazyl) and recorded around 73% scavenging activity at the concentration of 4 mg ${\cdot}ml^{-1}$. This hydrolyzate was thermally stable and DPPH radical scavenging activity remained 80% or higher at heating temperatures of 40 and 60$^{\circ}C$ up to 12 h and around 80% at 100$^{\circ}C$ up to 8 h. AMG and Ultraflo hydrolyzate inhibited the lipid peroxidation of fish oil as that of $\alpha$-tocopherol. These results suggested that an enzymatic extraction will be an effective way for the production of a potential antioxidant from seaweeds.

In order to reduce long preparating time for alkali pretreated B-type gelatin, enzyme pretreatment was tried on flounder(Limanda aspera) skin for I-type gelatin. The optimal extraction conditions of the B-type gelatin were 9 folds of added water with material(w/w), 3 hrs of extraction time, $60^{\circ}C$ of extraction temperature and pH 5. The maximum amount of I-type gelatin was extracted at $60^{\circ}C$ for 3 hrs using water controlled to pH 6.0(material : water= 1:9, w/w). The yields of the B- and E-type gelatin were $64.2\%\;and\;59.2\%,$ respectively. The B-type was superior to the B-type in physical properties such as jelly strength, viscosity and electric conductivity. Molecular weight of B-type was so far larger than that of the E-type due to different pretreatment method. Hydrolysis ratio of the E-type was higher than that of the B-type because of its molecular weight. Results suggest that B-type product would be better than I-type as fish skin gelatin but E-type was desirable in hydrolyzate preparation.

To obtain a basic data of Korean geoduck(Panope japonica A. Adams) for fast food manufacturing, contents of proteinous compounds, nucleic acid and related compounds were analysed, and monthly changes of proximate compositions and freshness changes during frozen storage have been studied. The edible portions were $29.92\%$ in 3 years old samples and $38.04\%$ in 5 years old ones, respectively. The moisture and protein content showed the highest level from March to April and those of lipid and glycogen showed the highest level in July. Taurine, glycine, alanine and glutamic acid were the major free amino acid in 5 years old samples harvested in July and taurine content showed the highest level among free amino acids. Glutamic acid was the most abundant amino acid among the amino acids of protein hydrolyzate in 5 years old sample(96.6mg/16g-N). Leucine and lysine were revealed as relatively higher content(8.35 and $7.70\%$). From the analytical results on VBN, TMAO, TMA and $NH_2-N$, blanching at $95^{\circ}C$ for 2 mins was effective to maintain the quality of geoduck during frozen storage. Total creatine content was not changed in blanched geoduck.
