In succession to the previous paper, the present study was directed to investigate the nonvolatile organic acids composition in raw and belied-dried products of oyster, sea-mussel, baby clam and hen clam by gas liquid chromatography. The results obtained are summarized as follows : In four kinds of the samples examined, eight kinds of organic acids were identified and determined in oyster, sea-mussel and baby clam, and nine kinds in hen clam. The major organic acids in oyster were pyroglutamic, succinic and malic acid which was $94.2\%$ of total quantity of organic acid, and those in sea-mussel, baby clam and hen clam were succinic and malic acid which were $90.8\%,\;89.7\%\;and\;86.4\%$ of total acids, respectively. The most abundant organic acid in sea-mussel, baby clam and hen clam was succinic acid that was $80.6\%,\;84.9\%\;and\;73.2\%$ in total acids, repectively. And that of oyster was pyroglutamic acid which marked $38.8\%$ in total acids, and the next one was succinc acid marked $34.4\%$. In the total quantity of organic acid, the highest was 913.0 mg/100g in oyster which showed 4.5 times as much as in hen clam, followed by 478.4 mg/100g in sea-mussel, 246.3mg/100g in baby clam, and the least was 201.2 mg/100g in hen clam. The decreasing rate of total quently of organic acids by boiled-dried procersing was the highest in oyster, $54.7\%$, followed by $46.5\%$ in sea-mussel, $37.1\%$ in hen clam and $29.4\%$ in baby clam. The decreasing rate of each organic acid shelved much difference according to the samples examined, in general, great in malic, fumaric and proglutamic acid ana less in succinic, lactic and oxalic acid.

Some taste compounds such as nucleotide and their related compounds, trimethylamine oxide (TMAO), trimethylamine (TMA) and total creatinine of sea mussel and baby clam during drying at 40, 50 and 60^{\circ}C$ and storage at low temperature$(4^{\circ}C)$ and room temperature$(20^{\circ}C)$ were investigated. Six kinds of nucleotide and their related compounds such as adenine triphosphate (ATP), adenine diphosphate (ADP), adenine monophosphate (AMP), inosine, adenosine and hypoxanthine were analyzed. The contents od adenosine in raw sample was high in sea mussel and baby clam. The contents of ATP, ADP and AMP decreased, while those of inosine and hypoxanthine increased during drying and storage periods. The contents of TMAO, TMA and total creatinine were low in sea mussel and baby clam. TMAO and total creatinine decreased but TMA increased during drying and storage periods. The rate of change was high in room temperature storage and for long storage periods than that of low temperature storage and for short storage periods.

In this study oxidative deterioration of dried sea mussel and baby clam stored at $4{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ and $25{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ were investigated. Acid value of samples were higher at $25^{\circ}C$ than those at $4^{\circ}C$ throughout the storage period. And it was higher in dried baby clam than in sea mussel regardless of storage temperatures. Peroxide value of dried sea mussel and baby clam stored at $25^{\circ}C$ tended to decrease after 30 and 60 days, respectively. Thiobarbituric acid and carbonyl value of samples stored at $4^{\circ}C$ were higher than those stored at $25^{\circ}C$ throughout the storage period. In case of sea mussel, However they were lower stored at $4^{\circ}C$ than at $25^{\circ}C$ in 30 days. Amino nitrogen increased until 60 days and then decreased in all samples. Fluorescence intensity associated with interaction between carbonyl compound and amino compound was increased with storage temperature and time but it decreased slowly after 60 days.

To evaluate lipid oxidation in dried shellfish during storage, brown pigment formation and composition of fatty acid were determined. Levels of brown pigment formation occurred at $25^{\circ}C$ were higher than those occurred at $4^{\circ}C$ throughout the storage period. Especially, the formation content of lipophilic brown pigment was 9$\~$10 times higher than that of hydrophilic brown pigment in all samples. Fatty acid composition of total lipid (TL) in fresh sea mussel and baby clam were $34.21\%$ and $32.83\%$ in saturated fatty acid, $19.50\%$ and $20,83\%$ in monoenoic acid, and $46.29\%$ and $46.79\%$ in polyenoic acid, respectively. The prominent fatty acids were 16:0, 16:1 and 20:5 in TL of the both samples. During storage, the contents of saturated fatty acid and monoenoic acid were slightly increased but that of polyenoic acid was decreased. In sea mussel, the content of polyenoic acid was higher in phospholipid (PL) than in neutral lipid (NL), while saturated fatty acid and monoenoic acid content were higher in the latter. The ratios of polyenoic acid/saturated fatty acid (P/S) in NL was similar in all samples. But the ratio of P/S in PL was higher in baby clam ($1.81\%$) than that in sea mussel($1.42\%$).
