Large quantities of by-products—such as fish frame, head, skin and viscera—are generated during seafood processing, and these by-products are not utilized extensively. Therefore, sea rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss (SRT) frame muscle (FM) jerky was prepared by grinding SRT-FM, followed by mixing with seasoning, forming and drying. The nutritional and microbiological characteristics of the SRT-FM jerky were then investigated. The proximate composition of the SRT-FM jerky was 19.1% moisture, 38.7% crude protein, 7.9% crude lipid and 4.4% ash. The viable bacterium count of the SRT-FM jerky was 3.9 log CFU/g, and Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus were not detected. The total amino acid content of SRT-FM jerky was 37.3 g/100 g, and the major amino acids were aspartic acid, glutamic acid, leucine and lysine. Based on the recommended daily intake of fish jerky (100 g), the most abundant mineral was potassium. The fatty acid composition of the SRT-FM jerky was 26.2% saturated acid, 34.5% monoenoic acid and 39.3% polyenoic acid, and the major fatty acids were 16:0, 18:1n-9, 18:2n-6, 20:5n-3 and 22:6n-3. These results suggest that SRT-FM jerky has high nutritional value.

For an effective use of fish by-products from the skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis) canning manufactures, the changes of chemical properties of skipjark tuna viscera silage by the processing method during storage were investigated. The acid treated skipjack tuna viscera silage (ASS) were higher in the contents of moisture, lipid, protein and mineral but lower in the contents of carbohydrate and polyunsaturated fatty acids than those of fermented skipjack tuna viscera silage (FSS) by L. bulgaricus, KCTC 3188 and L. plantarum, KCTC 1048. Especially, the contents of total n-3 fatty acids in FSS increased remarkably during storage. The dominant amino acids in ASS and FSS were glutamic acid (Glu), aspartic acid (Asp), leucine (Leu), glycine (Gly) and alanine (Ala). And the contents of tryptophan (Trp) decreased by $30\%$ in ASS and $5\%$ in FSS in comparision with that of raw skipjack tuna viscera after 42 days of storage. The concentration of vitamin $B_1\;and\;B_2$ in FSS increased gradually during storage but the concentration of vitamin $B_2$ in ASS decreased. In the organoleptic evaluation, ASS gave a grayish brown color and a fishy odor. On the other hand, FSS had reddish brown color and sour taste by the production of lactic arid during storage.

Oysters are the most abundantly harvested type of shellfish in Korea. As export of this marine product increases, oysters have greatly contributed to an increase in fishing income. As the oyster aquaculture industry has rapidly grown since the late 1990s, issues of oyster-shell processing that occur in production processes have re-emerged as important topics in the oyster industry. The amount of oyster shells harvested in 2019 is estimated to be approximately 300,000 tons. With reductions in demand for pyrolytic fertilizer and feed, which are currently the greatest sources of demand, unprocessed shell quantities have doubled compared to 2018, causing them to be an issue once more. Such oyster-shell processing also incurs great costs, and a total of forty-six billion three hundred fifty million Korean won (46,350,000,000 KRW) has been provided from 2009 to 2020 for the use of oyster shells as a resource. According to current Korean laws, oyster shells are considered to be industrial waste if more than 300 kilograms are sent out in a day. Collection and processing must be conducted by a waste-consignment company. Consequently, there are many limitations to the use of oyster shells in Korea as a resource. However, in Japan, only oyster-shell waste is regulated by waste-processing As a result, local governments may apply exceptions when utilized as organic matter. Consequently, in Japan, oyster shells are being used as resources in more diverse fields than in Korea. This study observes the conditions and problems of oyster-shell processing in Korea and attempts to find new domestic oyster-shell resource solutions in light of Japan's recycling practices.

Since 1976 the catches of sardine increased rapidly in Korea. However due to the poor facilities of preservation, most sardine landed was used only for fish meal as feeds. The aims of this study are to investigate the processing of sardine as a protein. concentrate and to solve related problems under our particular circumstances. Using the ethyl alcohol and isopropyl alcohol, the storage effect for further processing, the optimum processing conditions of sardine protein concentrate and amino acid composition of the product were determined. The utilization of sardine protein ,concentrate as a supplement of bread and noodles was also studied. Chopped sardine meat could be stored in isopropyl and ethyl alcohol without significant deterioration as a raw material for tile further processing. High qualify sardine Protein concentrate could be produced by the method, that is five times five minutes extraction with isopropyl or ethyl alcohol at $80^{\circ}C$ under adequate mixing. In the first step of the extraction, the solvent was added as much as 10 times tile sample amount and the equal volume of additional solvent was also used for the second to fifth step extraction. In the products extracted using isopropyl alcohol and ethyl alcohol, the yields of sardine protein concentrate were $21.2\%$ and $20.3\%$ respectively, and the dry basis contents of protein in the two products were $80.5\%$ and $75.8\%$, the lipid being $0.22\%$ and $0.27\%$ respectively. Isoproyl alcohol was superior to superior alcohol for the extraction of fresh sardine. In amino acid composition of sardine protein concentrate, no difference was found between the products of isopropyl and ethyl alcohol extraction except a little difference in the amount of amino acid between them. In the supplementation of bread and noodles, taste panel showed that supplemented bread and noodles were well accepted when $3\%$ of wheat flour was replaced by sardine protein concentrate.

Due to decreased supplies of marine resources and byproducts, new processing technologies for the development of analogs for natural fishery products are becoming increasingly important in the fishing industry. In the present study, we investigated the optimal processing conditions for flying fish roe analogs based on alginate hydrogels. Optimized processing of these analogs was performed by response surface methodology. The optimal processing conditions for the flying fish roe analogs (based on sphericity) were at a sodium alginate concentration of 2.41 %, calcium chloride solution curing time of 40.65 min, calcium chloride concentration of 1.51 %, and a reactor stir speed of $254{\times}g$. When the experiment was performed under these optimized conditions, the size (mm), sphericity (%), and rupture strength (kPa) of the analogs were $2.2{\pm}0.12$, $98.2{\pm}0.2$, and $762{\pm}24.68$, respectively, indicating physical properties similar to their natural counterparts.

The effect of EDTA or BHA pretreatment upon the color preservation of canned surf clam meat during canning and storage was studied. The steamed surf clam meat was soaked in BHA solution, $0.1\%$ BHA in $5\%$ salt solution, or EDTA solution, $0.5\%\;Na_2$ EDTA in $5\%$ salt solution, for 30 minutes. The pretreated surf clam meat was packed in a round enameled can that is 223.2 ml by volume and sterilized for 75 minutes at $110^{\circ}C$. The canned products were stored for one year at room temperature. The EDTA treatment of surf clam meat appeared effective on color preservation during processing. After three month storage, the samples showed little color change comparing with those right after processing. After one year storage, EDTA or BHA treated samples showed better color preservation as compared with control.

The cooked surf clam meat was treated with BHA or EDTA, and then dehydrated by means of hot-air dehydration or sun drying. The dehydrated products were packed in glass bottle and stored for three months in the dark place. After three month storage, the pigment loss and water absorbing capacity of dehydrated products were compared with those of directly after dehydration. Both of the sun dried and hot-air dehydrated surf clam products showed a great deal of pigment loss during storage. The BHA treatment prior to dehydration of surf clam meat had good effects on the pigment retention, and the EDTA treatment had a weak effect on it during storage. The rate of rehydration of dehydrated surf clam products had markedly decreased during storage. And it could be seen that there was little difference among the rate of rehydration of the BHA or EDTA treated product and untreated one during storage.

The production of distilled soju by fermenting nonsteamed rice was evaluated using commercial enzyme products. White koji and modified nuruk had alpha-amylase activities of 31.90 U/g and 3,532.71 U/g, respectively, and gluco-amylase activities of 698.32 U/g and 4,899.58 U/g, respectively. The enzyme products had activities of 5,604.15-225,182.00 U/g and 13,517.41-120,822.41 U/g, respectively. At enzyme concentrations of >800 mg/L, the Chung-moo-purified enzyme had an alcohol productivity of ≥19%. Nurukzyme R400, Sanferm Yied, and Diazyme X4 exhibited alcohol productivities of >19% at concentrations of >600 mg/L. The alcohol content of the vacuum distillates was 41.31%-44.86%. The volatile component with the alcohol content adjusted to 25% was analyzed and principal component analysis was performed. The volatile components in white koji, Diazyme X4, and Sanferm Yield were similar. The modified nuruk treatment group had a relatively high ethyl lactate content compared to the white koji treatment group. The Nurukzyme R400 treatment group had high contents of butyric acid and ethyl butyrate. The Chung-moo-purified enzyme was characterized by a low component content. Thus, when enzyme products were used in nonsteamed rice fermentation, no effect on the alcohol productivity and quality of vacuum distilled soju was observed, suggesting that it can replace white koji and modified nuruk.

In the production of organic Panax ginseng, the morphological changes were confirmed by providing general water and microbubble water, respectively. Analysis of seedling ginseng treated with general water and bubbles water revealed that many seedlings were formed in the seedling treated with bubble water, and about 15% weight increase occurred in the growing period. The growth rate of stem, leaf, and root was about 15% higher than that of all. Taken together, the growth of seedling cultivation using bubble water was about 15% overall. In order to process ginseng, the dried ginseng was higher in dry weight than the general water seedling seedlings grown in bubble water. This suggests that more processed products will be produced per unit weight at the time of producing the processed products at the farm, which can directly increase the farm income.

To evaluate the possibility of using a by-products of skipjack canning as a food or feedstuff, the proximate composition, total and free amino acids, total lipid composition, and nucleotide related compounds were analyzed. The crude protein was highest in dark muscle, while lipid was highest in head. The important total amino acids in by-products were founded to be glycine, glutamic acid, alanine and histidine. The important free amino acids from dark muscle and head were taurine, histidine and anserine. The amounts of histidine, anserine and carnosine in dark muscle was higher than those of cooking drips, head, and raw vicera. The major fatty acids in by-products were palmitic, stearic, oleic and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). The inosine and hypoxanthine were important nucleotide related compounds in by-products. The results suggests that by-products from skipjack can be used as food sources and feedstuffs especially for marine fish culture.
