Mackerel Scomber japonicus is an excellent source of vitamins (A, D and B₁₂), omega-3 fatty acids, dietary protein and minerals. This study was conducted to prepare mackerel-based processed seafood products such as grilled product with super-heated (GM), tang (TM) and salad with sweet potato (SSM) using mackerel as senior-friendly seafoods and to examine their quality characteristics. The hardness of GM, TM and SSM were 240.3×1.0³, 21.7×1.0³ and 7.4×1.0³ N/m², respectively. The viscosity of SSM was 25,450 m·Pas. The nutritional content of mackerel-processed products was within the senior-friendly standard specifications for protein, vitamin C, vitamin B₂ (riboflavin) and vitamin B₃ (niacin) ing GM, protein, vitamin B₃ and calcium for TM, and protein, vitamin D, vitamin B₂ and vitamin B₃ in SSM. All the mackerel-processed products were safe as senior-friendly seafoods, since digestibility rates were 81.5% for GM, 87.9% for TM and 93.5% for SSM. The physical, nutritional and the sanitation results indicated that senior-friendly seafoods classified of the mackerel-processed products was step 1 for GM, step 2 for TM and step 3 for SSM according to the Korean Food Code and Korean Indusrty Standards.

This study was conducted to prepare braised product with soy sauce (BP), rose gratin (RG) and white mousse (WM) using Japanese Spanish mackerel Scombermorus niphonius as senior-friendly seafoods with different physical and nutritional properties and to examine their quality characteristics. The hardness of BP, RG and WM were 428.0×10³, 46.9×10³ and 16.0×10³ N/m², respectively. The nutritional values of BP, RG and WM are 17.8, 9.1 and 18.5 g, respectively, for protein; 11.86, 23.32 and 13.35 ㎍ RAE, respectively, for vitamin A; 1.27, 0.49 and 0.17 ㎍, respectively, for vitamin D; 45.21, 12.79, and 35.54 mg, respectively, for vitamin C; 0.17, 0.13 and 0.23 mg, respectively, for riboflavin; 4.28, 2.94 and 3.65 mgNE, respectively, for niacin; 19.6, 104.0 and 48.1 mg, respectively, for Ca; 441.6, 271.1 and 250.1 mg, respectively, for K; 0.20, 0.80 mg and undetection, respectively, for dietary fiber. Escherichia coli was undetected in all the products. These results indicated that the products be classified as steps 1 for BP, step 2 for RG and step 3 for WM of senior-friendly seafoods based on the KS, and as nutritional and physical properties-improved senior-friendly seafoods based on the Food Code.
