This study was intended to observe the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of anchovy added kimchi during fermentation at 4$^{\circ}C$ for 4 weeks. Salting of Chinese cabbage for 10 hours at 10% brine solution was turned out to be appropriate organoleptically for kimchi preparation. Salt content of all kimchies prepared in this study was below 2%. The changes of pH and acidity during fermentation was slow in raw anchovy added kimchi compared to other kimchies. The content of vitamin C was not changed significantly through the fermentation period, whereas the content of reducing sugar was increased at the early stage of fermentation and subsequently decreased as fermentation proceeded. The number of lactic acid bacteria was the highest in raw anchovy added kimchi. The content of calcium and phosphorus were higher in anchovy powder added kimchi and raw anchovy added kimchi than control. In the early stage of fermentation, the major pigments of kimchi were the chlorophyll and carotenoid, but in the later stage of fermentation, the color of Chinese cabbage became greenish brown as chlorophyll was converted to pheophytin. In sensory evaluation test, raw anchovy added kimchi received high score at the early stage of fermentation and anchovy powder added kimchi at the late stage of fermentation, respectively.

The effects of raw anchovy, salted raw anchovy (20% salt+anchovy), 6- and 12-month fermented anchovy (20% salt added) on the N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG)-induced mutagenicities were evaluated using Salmonella assay and the SOS chromotest. The methanol extracts from raw, salted and the fermented anchovy (FA) sample increased the revertants of Salmonella typhimurium TA100 at the level of $0.125{\sim}5\;mg/plate$ in Ames test. The salted raw anchovy extract induced the largest number of the revertants. All the FA extracts had comutagenic effect on the MNNG. Twelve-month FA juice exerted the lowest comutagenic activity among the FA samples. The comutagenicity of 12-month FA was due to the synergistic effect of salt and histidine which teem in FA. Thus the Ames test using histidine requiring mutant, S. typhimurium, is not appropriate to determine the mutagenicity of FA which is rich in histidine. In SOS chromotest using E coli, raw, salted and fermented anchovy extracts did not show any mutagenicity in the absence of MNNG. The raw and fermented anchovy samples blocked the SOS response of E. coli PQ37 induced by MNNG, while raw salted anchovy increased the SOS induction factor. Twelve-month FA juice showed higher antimutagenic effects than 6-month FA samples (both solid and liquid). The ripened (12-month) FA along with raw anchovy in the SOS chromotest exhibited antimutagenic activity.

This study conducted to investigate the impact of raw material freshness on the quality and hygienic safety of anchovy fish sauce and suggest the importance of raw material freshness to make high-quality and hygienic anchovy fish sauce by measuring the chemical compositions and histamine. To devide the raw material's freshness levels, raw anchovy was left for 24 hours and was sampled every 4 hour(Group I-VII). As a result, the levels of VBN(volatile basic nitrogen) and histamine increased as time passed each contents were 16.29-87.65 mg/100 g and 6.14-1499.63 mg/100 g respectively. As fish sauce fermented for 18 months, the contents of VBN were 205.31-270.51 mg/100 g and histamine were 120.54-1707.22 mg/100 g, respectively. These results means the levels of VBN and histamine of raw materials are significantly associated with the hygiene of anchovy fish sauce. To investigate the reason of different contents of histamine at each fish sauce, bacteria from each groups were isolated and identified. At group V-VII those the lowest three groups, Leconostoc mesenteroides ssp. cremoris was identified and that produced the highest content of histamine 22.88-101.69 mg/kg and the others produced histamine 3.79-20.2 mg/kg. This means that fish sauce made by low freshness materials contain bacteria have strong ability to make histamine from histidine. Therefore, the freshness of raw material influences the hygiene and safety of fish sauce, and it is most important to manage the freshness of raw material to make the high quality and hygienically safe fish sauce.

The effects of processing and frozen storage conditions on the quality of anchovy Engraulis japonica fried surimi gels were investigated. Protein content decreased after surimi gel processing from 19.6% (raw meat) to 12.1% (kamaboko) due to the added ingredients and change in water content. Lipid content decreased from 2.8% (raw meat) to 1.3% in minced and 0.5% in surimi, but fried kamaboko showed a 6.9 % lipid level. Thiobarbituric acid values and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances levels were highest in kamaboko samples, 89.5 and 1.9 mg/g solid, and increased gradually with storage time to 101.8 and 4.6 mg/g solid, respectively. In vitro protein digestibility increased from 79.2% in raw anchovy to 88.5% in kamaboko samples. Levels of trypsin inhibitor decreased gradually with processing and during storage time from 2.43 in raw anchovy to 0.31 mg/g solid in the kamaboko sample after 60 days of frozen storage. No noticeable changes in total essential amino acid was observed during processing conditions. Computed protein efficiency ratio for kamaboko was highest (2.59) compared with whole anchovy (1.96), minced (1.94) and surimi (2.50). Fresh fried anchovy kamaboko showed similar values of hardness, springiness, gumminess and chewiness to commercial surimi gel, but a higher values were seen for fracturability and adhesiveness, and lower values for cohesiveness and resilience. The frozen and thawed anchovy kamaboko showed higher values for all of these rheological parameters compared with fresh and commercial kamaboko. Anchovy kamaboko showed the lowest lightness (62.9) and redness (0.16) and similar yellowness (11.9) compared with commercial kamaboko. Frozen storage and vacuum packaging were effective maintaining the shelf life of anchovy kamaboko within 30 days, but were not effective after 45 days due to fat oxidation.

Volatile flavor compounds of optimal Maillard reactions (MR) derived with the addition of precursors (AP), control (without AP) and raw as anchovy Engraulis japonicus sauce residue were identified and comparatively analyzed using solid phase microextraction/gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (SPME/GC/MS). MR was produced by adding 1% (w/w) glucose and mixed amino acids (threonine 0.543%, glutamic acid 0.194%, glycine 0.382%, w/w) to raw (100 g of anchovy sauce residue and 100 mL of distilled water), and heating at 110 ℃ for 2 h. Among 65 flavor components detected, 7 compounds were produced through Maillard reaction to change in content. A total of 7 volatile flavor compounds, including 2-methylbutanal, 3-methylbutanal, dimethyl disulfide, methylpyrazine, dimethyl trisulfide, methional, and 2-furanmethanol, tended to increase in the order of raw, control, and MR, but methylpyrazine was not detected in control. Amounts of 2-methylbutanal, 3-methylbutanal, dimethyl disulfide, methylpyrazine, dimethyl trisulfide, methional, and 2-furanmethanol having positive odors (dark chocolate-, garlic-, hazelnut-, cooked potato-like) were 11.04, 50.15, 3.25, 8.38, 4.60, 9.59, and 3.08 times higher, respectively, in MR than those in raw.

In the anchovy boat seine fishing boat, it is necessary to select other aquatic organisms other than live anchovies, which are the target species of catch. By making a rotating roller sorter using hydraulic pressure, the anchovy sorting amount was compared and the sorting accuracy of the rotary roller sorter, and the discharge speed of butter fish and jerry fish according to the number of roller revolutions were analyzed. The rotating roller sorter increases the weight of the sorted raw anchovy by 54%, 74% and 91.5% compared to the round bar fixed type, so it can reduce the required time by an average of 73.2%. As a result of converting the sorting accuracy to the weight of pure anchovies excluding the catch weight, the round bar fixed type was 89%; however, the average of the rotating roller sorter was 97.7%. Thus, the sorting accuracy of the rotary roller sorter was further improved by about 8.7%. The roller speed moved 7% at 300 rpm, 7.5% at 600 rpm, and 16% at 900 rpm, so butter fish were discharged overboard 10% faster than jelly fish on average. In addition, the average feed speed of butter fish and jelly fish is 1,400 mm/s when the roller rotation speed is 300 rpm, 1,480 mm/s at 600 rpm, and 1,850 mm/s at 900 rpm. A Φ58 mm roller rotates once it moved about 1.23 mm. In the future, a follow-up study of quantitative evaluation is needed targeting more non-target fish species of anchovy boat seine.

In order to investigate the composition, seasonal and regional variation of extractive nitrogenous components in the raw anchovy (Engraulis japonica) harvested from June 1991 to June 1992 at Nam-hae and Ki-jang in the southern coast of Korea, the contents of extractive nitrogen (EN), free amino acids (FAA), oligopeptides (OP), ATP and its related compounds (ARC), quaternary ammonium bases, and guanidino compounds were measured. The EN contents of raw anchovy were $444{\~}773\;mg/100\;g$. Thirty-four kinds of FAA were found and their total amount were $1,049{\~}2,079\;mg/100\;g$. Histidine, taurine, alanine, leucine and glutamic acid were the major free amino acids in the anchovy extracts. The amount of ARC was average $5.02\;{\mu}mol/g$, and IMP was the major compound among them, who and creatine contents in the extracts or raw anchovy were average 164 and 229 mg/100 g, respectively. The contents of glycinebetaine,${\brta}-alaninebetaine,\;{\gamma}-burobetaine$, homarine, TMA, and creatinine were extremely small. As for the regional and seasonal disparities, the Nam-hae samples contained more EN, FAA, OP, betaines and creatine than the Ki-jang samples. On the other hand the Ki-jang samples contained more ARC and TMAO. The spring samples contained more EN, FAA, OP, ARC and betaines than the autumn samples. On the other side the autumn samples contained more TAMO and creatine.

We investigated the changes of chemical compositions during fermentation of salted anchovy by salting methods for the purpose of establishment of processing condition. Dehydration of anchovy meat occurred remarkably by dry salting compared with that by brine salting and salinity was higher in anchovy by brine salting than by dry salting. Dehydration and salinity were increased in more anchovy fermented at $20^{\circ}C$ than at $5^{\circ}C$. Total nitrogen content was lower in anchovy by brine salting than by dry salting. Amino nitrogen increased remarkably during fermentation of salted anchovy at $20^{\circ}C$, while increased slightly at$5^{\circ}C$. Amino nitrogen showed maximum value on 120 days in dry salting and on 30 days in brine salting at $20^{\circ}C$, respectively. The changes of VBN were similar to the changes of amino nitrogen. The brine salting accelerated hydrolysis of anchovy meat compared with that of dry salting at $20^{\circ}C$, and the hydrolysis were suppressed at $5^{\circ}C$, The POV increased rapidly in dry-salted anchovy than brine-salted anchovy. We suggested that the appropriate processing condition of salted anchovy is to ferment for 5-6 months at $5^{\circ}C$ by addition of $25\%$ salt after pre-salting of raw anchovy.
