We have studied on the effect of hydrochloric acid on the hydrolysis of dried cuttlefish, sardine, shrimp, sea mussel and undaria taking various concentration of acid, heating at various periods at constant temperatures and under atmospheric pressure following results were obtained. 1. The addition of HCl increases hydrolysis ratio of marine products rapidly, having maximum point of its ratio at 30% of dried cuttlefish and shrimp, at 25% of sea mussel and undaria, at 15% of sardine. 2. Hydrolysis ratios of cuttlefish and shirmp, sea mussel and undaria, and sardine reach maximum values at 30% of HCl, 25% of HCl and 15% of HCl, respectively.

The present study investigated the feces production rate and fecal nitrogen production ratio of abalone, Haliotis discus hannai fed seaweed, Undaria pinnatifida. The abalone, with shell lengths of 3 cm, 5 cm, and 7 cm, were tested at temperatures of $12^{\circ}C$, $16^{\circ}C$, and $20^{\circ}C$ in a semi-recirculating aquaculture system. Under the given experimental conditions, the weight specific feces production rate (FPw) of the abalone increased with the decrease of shell length and the increase of temperature. The relationship of the FPw was. $FPw=-3.092+206.573/T - 1916.8/T^2+0.141L -0.037L^2(r^2=0.9412)$. In addition the abalone produced 17.8-22.5% of fecal material against ingested seaweed, Undaria pinnatifida, and $18.4-22.4\%$ of nitrogen ingested total nitrogen.

1.Each cells homogenized from Undaria were reacted in reaction micture to persue the phosphate metabolism in Undaria cell. Aliquots of the cells were taken out at the begin-ning and at intervals during the reaction, and analyzed for the content of total-P in various fractions of the cell constituents. 2.The P-contents in fraction of polyphosphate "B" decreased remarkably, while that in fraction of RNA polyphosphate "C" showed slow increase. 3.As well as in Chlorella cells, inorganic phosphates in DNA-P, protein-P, and lipid-P were transferred from polyphosphate, RNA-P turnovered from inorganic phosphate that is in cytoplasm, and RNA polyphosphate complex from polyphosphate, and it was suggested that inorganic phosphates in polyphosphate "B" could transformed into polyphosphate "A" & "C", and polyphosphate "C" into polyphosphate "A".

This study determined the effect of packaging and electron beam irradiation on the quality of dried Undaria pinnatifida. Samples were air or vacuum packaged and irradiated at 7 kGy. The dried Undaria pinnatifida had total viable cells and coliform counts of 5.51 and 4.40 log CFU/g in total, respectively, and counts of 5.56 and 4.19 log CFU/g in surface. These counts were reduced by 2-4 log cycles after irradiation. Irradiation increased the lightness and yellowness of the dried Undaria pinnatifida, but not the redness. In the sensory evaluation, there were no significant differences among samples. Therefore, electron beam irradiation improves the microbial safety and quality of dried Undaria pinnatifida.

Twelve morphological characters and the biochemical composition of Undaria pinnatifida f. distans sporophytes growing on the rocky shores of Jindo and Wando and on cultivation ropes in Kijang were measured to determine whether each population could be characterized by morphological features and biochemical composition. The goal of this study was to compare phenotypic variations between populations as they relate to environmental conditions. The sporophytes of the Kijang population were two times longer and 19 times heavier than those at Jindo. Sporophylls of the Jindo U. pinnatifida population were significantly smaller in length, width, frill number, and weight than those at Wando and Kijang. Kijang Undaria plants showed the highest contents of total protein, crude fiber, total amino acids, the amount of essential amino acids, the proportion of total unsaturated fatty acids, and eicosapentaenoic acid. However, the Jindo population showed the greatest content of carbohydrates, lipids, and minerals (Zn and Ca) of the three U. pinnatifida populations. In particular, Zn content of Jindo plants was 30 times greater than that of Kijang plants. Thus, the proximate composition, mineral composition, amino acids, and fatty acids of Undaria pinnatifida plants were distinguishable among the three representative Undaria populations evaluated. These results suggest that morphological and biochemical differences of the three U. pinnatifida populations can be attributed to differences in environmental conditions of their habitats.

The anticoagulant activities of fucoidan fractions extracted from Sporophylls of Undaria pinnatifida, Laminaria religiosa, Hizikia fusiforme and Sargassum fulvellum were studied to assess the relationship between chemical characteristics and the activities. Crude fucoidans extracted with diluted HCl solution (pH 2.0) at $65^{\circ}C$ were precipitated with cetylpyridinum chloride and then fractionated by dissolving the precipitated complex with increasing $CaCl_2$, concentrations (1.0 M, 1.5 M, 3.0 M). The anticoagulant activities of the fractions with respect to activated partial thromboplastin (APTT) increased with increase in their sulfate content and Undaria finnatifida Fr-3.0 fraction, prepared by dissolving with 3.0 M $CaCl_2$ solution, exhibited the highest activity. The Undaria finnatifida Fr-3.0 fraction was further modified with pronase and laminase. The pronase and laminase treatment decreased protein and glucose content and the APTT activity was higher than that or parent Undaria finnatifida Fr-3.0 fraction. The pronase and laminase modified Undaria finnatifida Fr-3.0 was composed of fucose, galactose, mannose, sulfate, uronic acid in the approximately molar ratio of 1.00 : 1.30: 0.03 : 2.70 : 0.08.

When fed on one of the six isonitrogenous (45%) and isolipic (8%) feed containing 5 or 10% Undaria, 2% wasabi leaf, 2% wasabi stem and 0.5% herb (Obosan) for a period of 8 weeks, 95-98% juvenile flounder survived. Growth, feed efficiency and condition factor of the flounder fed on diet containing 0.5% herb were significantly (p<0.05) higher than those fed on diet supplemented with 10% Undaria. There was no significant (p>0.05) differences in moisture, crude protein, lipid and ash of the flounder receiving the different diets. The flounder fed on diet supplemented with 10% Undaria had the highest moisture but the lowest lipid in liver. Hematological parameters such as red blood cell, hematocrit and hemoglobin and serum constituents such as glucose, total cholesterol and glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase of the flounder fed on the diets varied but no specific trend became apparent. Lysozyme activity in the serum of the flounder fed on diet supplemented with 5% Undaria and the herb, as well as nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) reduction of macrophage in the head kidney of the flounder fed on diet containing the herb and 2% wasabi stem were significantly (p<0.05) higher than those receiving control diet. Briefly, the herb supplementation promoted growth and that of Undaria and wasabi stem enhanced non-specific immune response.

We investigated the antioxidant and hepatoprotective effects of extracts from the Undaria pinnatifida and Costaria costata against ethanol-induced oxidative damage. The total polyphenol and flavonoid contents were highest in the 70% ethanol extract from Undaria pinnatifida and Costaria costata. Also, the radical scavenging activity of DPPH (IC₅₀ 0.33± 0.21, 0.48±0.47 mg/ml) and ABTS (IC₅₀ 0.34±0.30, 0.47±0.17 mg/ml) in the 70% ethanol extract was higher than that of the hot water and 10% ethanol extracts. To determine the hepatoprotective effects of extracts in ethanol-induced oxidative damage, cell viability was measured using an MTT assay. In the pre-treatment of Undaria pinnatifida and Costaria costata hot water extracts, the concentration-dependent increased the cell viability compared with the ethanol treated cells (73.95%) by 89.91~97.63% and 84.99~90.54%, respectively. The data suggests that 70% ethanol extracts have antioxidant activity and hot water extracts exhibit hepatoprotective effects. Therefore, Undaria pinnatifida and Costaria costata may be considered potential agents for control ethanol-induced liver damage.

Water temperature data of National Fisheries Research and Development Institute[NFRDI] during periods of 1990 to 2007 were analyzed to investigate the effect of the water temperature on catches of anchovy and Undaria Pinnatifida in coastal of Busan, Korea Our findings indicated that the catches of anchovy and Undaria Pinnatifida were controlled by various oceanographic conditions, mainly water temperature. The appearance of warmer water at stratification above depth. higher anchovy catches and cooler water at stratification below depth, higher Undaria Pinnatifida production.
