An 8-week of growth feeding trial was conducted to evaluate effects of the experimental extruded pellet (EP), commercial EP and raw fish-based moist pellet (MP) for growing flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus). Three replicate groups of the fish average weighing 43.5 g were fed four experimental diets (EP1, EP2, EP3 and EP4), four commercial diets (EP5, EP6, EP7 and EP8) and MP. Weight gain of fish fed the EP2, EP3 and EP4 was the highest among treatments, but not significantly different to that of fish fed the EPl, EP7 and MP. Feed efficiency and protein efficiency ratio of fish fed the MP were the lowest among treatments, but daily feed intake and daily protein intake of fish fed the MP were the highest among treatments. Moisture, lipid and ash contents of whole body were affected by diets, but protein content was not affected by diets. It is concluded that the dietary formulations used in the EP2, EP3 and EP4 can be applied in the practical exuded pellet feeds for growing flounder of 42-108g size.

It was tested the possibility that EPA and DHA could be separated from fish oil fatty acid ethyl ester(FAEE) in the supercritical carbon dioxide rectification method. Experiments were carried out in the 1800mm tall and temperature gradient packed rectification column at the pressure of 100bar and carbon dioxide flow rate of 52.43NL/min. Experimental results showed that this method was useful to separate the FAEE by the relative volatility of the components. The maximum attainable concentration of EPA, DHA and both of them in product were 41%, 43% and 57% respectively in this rectification column using raw fish oil feed.

A 15-week growth trial was conducted to evaluate the economical feed formulations for Korean rockfish (Sebastes sehlegeli). Three replicate groups of fish averaging 33 g were fed one of 8 isoproteic ($49\%$) and isolipidic ($8\%$) diets containing various practical ingredients such as fish meal, meat meal, feather meal, blood meal, soybean meal, corn gluten meal, and wheat flour with or without supplemental essential amino acids. A control diet with white fish meal and brown fish meal as the only protein sources was included. Practical ingredients were substituted from $40\%$ up to $65\%$ for portions of the fish meals in the control diet. Essential amino acids (EAA) were added to the diets for balancing EAA composition of each dietary protein source. In addition, these experimental diets were compared with raw fish-based moist pellet containing $50\%$ frozen horse mackerel and $50\%$ commercial binder meal. Results indicated that animal and plant protein sources could substitute for fish meal up to $55\%$ in diet without any adverse effects on growth and chemical composition of fish. Fish growth, body composition, nutrient utilization, and cost of fish production are discussed in relation to nutritional values of the dietary protein sources.

This study was conducted to compare an experimental extruded pellet (EP) and raw fish-based moist pellet (MP) on growth performance, whole-body and dorsal muscle composition, and textural properties of dorsal muscle for olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus. Four groups of 8,000 fish (initial mean weight $27.1{\pm}0.05g$) per concrete tank ($10{\times}10m$) were fed the experimental diets for 16 months. After the feeding trial, no significant differences were observed in final mean body weight, weight gain, specific growth rate, feed intake, survival, and condition factor between EP and MP groups. However, feed efficiency of fish fed the EP was significantly higher than that of fish fed the MP. Moisture content in the whole-body of fish fed the MP was significantly higher than that of fish fed the EP. Significantly higher contents of polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) in whole-body and dorsal muscle were observed in fish fed the EP compared with fish fed the MP. Any notable differences in amino acid contents or textural properties of the dorsal muscle were not observed in fish fed either the EP or the MP. The results of this study indicated that the EP could be developed to replace MP for the market size of production in olive flounder without the adverse effects on growth performance. Formulation of the EP could be used as a practical feed for olive flounder.

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the long term effects of dehulled soybean meal (DHSM) as fish meal (FM) replacer in the diet for olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus, for 42 wk at a commercial fish farm. The four experimental diets were MP (moist pellet based on raw fish), $DHSM_0$ (fish meal based dry pellet), $DHSM_{30}$ (30% fish meal was replaced by DHSM) and COMD (commercial dry pellet). Fish were fed one of the four diets containing 50% crude protein and 16.7 kJ available energy/kg diet for 42 wk. Fish averaging $3.20{\pm}0.04g$ ($mean{\pm}SD$) were initially distributed to each tank as a group of 6,000 fish reared in a flow-through system. At the end of the experiment, average body weight of fish was $315{\pm}9.3g$ ($mean{\pm}SD$) ). Weight gain (WG) and feed efficiency (FE) of fish fed MP, DHSM0 and DHSM30 showed no significant difference among the diet treatments. However, WG and FE of fish fed MP were significantly higher than those of fish fed COMD (p<0.05). Specific growth rate (SGR), protein efficiency ratio (PER) and survival of fish fed all diets were not significantly different among the dietary treatments. Therefore, these results indicate that DHSM could replace up to 30% white fish meal with amino acid supplementation in olive flounder diets for long-term feeding practice at the commercial farm.

Food waste in school foodservices is an important factors in managing expense and in evaluating the acceptance of served meals. This study was undertaken to investigate the management of food waste and the opinion of dietitians in one hundred fourty nine elementary school foodservices, in Pusan, Korea. When serving places were compared, the classroom generated more leftover and plate waste than those of lunchroom(p<0.05). In rank for generating raw waste, the residue from vegetables was the highest in first order. Fruit, eggs, fish, and shell fish also left the most raw waste, respectively, in descending order. The residue that generated the most plate waste in the first and the second order was from soup and pot stew, and vegatables side dishes, respectively. The treatment process of food waste which was the most common in school foodservices was the fertilization by processing machine in order to make recyclable fertilizer(52.1%). Food waste at 30.8% of foodservices was processed for live stock feed. At 92.3% of investigated foodservices, food waste water was drained through a round net basket. Before treating as a waste, food residue was recycled at only 41.9% of foodservices. The main utilization of food residue was the production of soap from used oil. Most dietitians in school foodservices recognized that treating food waste was not so inconvenient, although, the problems of odor and hygiene were not solved. They also thought that the liquid residue(54.1%) and oil(30.4%) among food waste were primarily responsible for resulting environmental pollution.

This study was conducted to evaluate of improving extruded pellet (EP) for growth of juvenile flounder by comparing with raw fish-based moist pellet (MP) diet. Two replicate groups of 80 fish per each tank (initial weight of $36.0{\pm}1.2 g$) were fed one of the three EPs (EP1, EP2 and CEP) and (MP for 16 weeks. Survival was not significantly affected by experimental diets (P>0.05). Weight gain of fish fed the MP was not significantly different from that of fish fed the EP1 & EP2 (P>0.05), but that of fish fed CEP was significantly lower than that of fish fed MP (P<0.05). Specific growth rate of fish fed the CEP was significantly lower than those of fish fed EP1, EP2 and MP (P<0.05). Feed efficiency of fish fed the EP1 was significantly higher than those of fish fed CEP and MP (P<0.05), but not significantly different from those of fish fed EP2 (P>0.05). The Contents of crude protein and crude lipid in whole body were significantly different among all groups (P<0.05). Therefore, these results strongly suggest that EP1 & EP2 diets could be developed to replace MP diet for flounder without adverse effects on growth performance.

Changes of nucleotides and their related compounds in raw, cooked and frozen fish muscle were studied with HPLC. Red sea bream(cultured and wild) and flounder(cultured, cultured with Obosan(equation omitted) and wild) were used for this study. In nucleotides, contents of ATP was similar to that of IMP and some of H$\times$R(inosine) and H$\times$(hypoxanthine) were existed in fresh muscle. ATP was decomposed rapidly and contents of IMP became different between cultured and wild fish after 6 hours. The content of IMP was lower in the cultured red sea bream(3.39$\mu$ mole/g) and flounder(3.17$\mu$ mole/g) than in the wi1d red sea bream(7.31$\mu$ mole/g) and flounder(5.03$\mu$ mole/g). But, the flounder cultured with Obosan contained the largest amounts of IMP After 24 hours, K values of cultured fish muscle(27.7%, 28.2%) were higher than that of wild ones(22.8%, 24.3%). The K value of cultured flounder fed with 0.3% Obosan(equation omitted)(25.7%) was between cultured and wild flounder. IMP was the one which existed the most in cooked and frozen muscle. Amounts of H$\times$R and H$\times$ were more in cooked and frozen muscle. than in raw muscle. From these results, we could suggest that the wild one was more palatable and fresher than the cultured one and the palatability of cultured one seemed to be improved depanding on the feed.

Effects of raw material composition, feed moisture and process temperature on chemical, physical and sensory properties of extrudates produced by a single-screw extruder from the mixtures of rice flour, isolated soy protein and file fish were evaluated through response surface methodology (RSM). Nitrogen solubility index (NSI), integrity index (II), rehydration ratio (RR), density, and the external appearance were measured as indices of physicochemical and sensory properties of extrudates. RR was negatively correlated with density (R=-0.742, p<0.0l). Increased amounts of rice flour in feed mixtures resulted in increased RR. The extrudate prepared from the mixtures of ISP, rice flour and file fish showed the highest sensory score at which extrusion temperature was 13$0^{\circ}C$ or above.

Aquaculture production of Hounder has been increased in the last decade in Korea. However, moist pellet primarily made of raw fish has been used as feed for flounder. Therefore, for further expansion of flounder farming, it is essential to employ practical formulated feeds which can support reasonable growth. Several studies on nutrition (Lee et al., 2000) and utilization of some plant protein source as a substitute for fish meal (Kikuchi, 1999) have been conducted for flounder diets. (omitted)
