This study was conducted to improve functional properties of salmon frame extracts using various commercial enzymes (Alkalase 2.4 L FG, Flavourzyme 500 MG, Neutrase 0.8 L and Protamex 1.5 MG). The ACE (angiotensin I converting enzyme) inhibitory activity was the highest ($IC_{50}=0.67mg/mL$) in the product incubated with Neutrase for 4 hrs (N4-treated hydrolysates) among the various extracts incubated with commercial enzymes for different times. However, antioxidant activities of all salmon frame extracts were less than 15%. There were no significant differences in the proximate composition and sensory evaluation of the fish odor and taste. However, N4-treated hydrolysate was improved in the extractive-nitrogen content and transmission compared to the other enzymatic hydrolysates. When compared to commercial Gomtang products, N4-treated hydrolysate was also high in protein, extractive-nitrogen, total amino acid, and calcium contents, while low in taste sensory score. There were no differences in transmission and sensory score on the fish odor between N4-treated hydrolysates and commercial Gomtang.

In order to elucidate the taste compounds of Korean catfish, Parasilurus asotus, free amino acids, nucleotides and their related compounds, organic bases, sugars, organic acids and minerals in the extracts of Korean catfish were analyzed, and then evaluated by sensory test of synthetic extract prepared on the basis of the analytical data. Taste panel assessments of synthetic extracts prepared with each extractive component omitted were carried out by a triangle difference test, and changes in taste profile were assessed. In free amino acid composition, glycine was dominant occupying $25\%$ of total free amino acids. The other abundant free amino acids were lysine, taurine and alanine. Judging from the result of analysis of nucleotides, IMP was dominant showing about $70\%$ of total nucleotides while ATP, ADP, AMP, inosine and hypoxanthine were low in content. Among organic bases, total creatinine was abundant and its nitrogen content occupied more than $50\%$ of the total extractive nitrogen. The amount of betaine was 18mg/100g and trace amount of trimethylamine and trimethylamine oxide were detected. The main organic acids were succinic, butyric, propionic and valeric acid. On the other hand, oxalic, fumaric, maleic, tartaric and citric acids were analyzed in trace. As for the sugars, glucose was found to be the most abundant monosaccharide. Extremely small amounts of fructoae, inositol were also detected and ribose and arabinose were trace in content. $K^+,\;Na^+,\;PO_{4}^{3-}$ and $Cl^-$ were found to be the major ions and small amount of $Ca^{2+}$ were defected. The synthetic extract, prepared with about 40 pure chemicals based on the analytical data satisfactorily revealed the natural taste of the original extract except slight difference in meaty taste and mildness. From the results of omission test the major components which contribute to produce the taste were serine, IMP, succinic acid and $PO_{4}^{3-}$.

Abiotic-stressed tobacco stems as a non-wooden biomass were analyzed for their chemical characteristics. Light-stressed tobacco stems (LST) have a relatively high nitrogen concentration, much more extractive content, and a similar amount of lignin and higher contents of acid sugars than those of Non stressed tobacco (NST). It also has low cellulose crystallinity and a high degree of condensation. Guaiacyl units having a lower molecular weight distribution consist of rich lignin. Tension stressed tobacco (TST) growth differentiation under tensile stress was significantly different between normal tissue and cell walls, with the exception of the slightly higher cellulose crystallinity observed for.

This research aimed at investigating the changes of volatile basic nitrogen, amino nitrogen and lipids during the fermentation of 6 month Anchovy cured under room temperature with various treatments(20, 30 and 40% salted) and examing the optimum condition of Anchovy sauce. The results are summerized as the V.B.N which increased with the curing period of anchovy from 14 mg% to 90～107mg% in 180 days curing at 20% salt level. Amino nitrogen in minced anchovy was higher than in whole anchovy during fermentation and the content of Extractive Nitrogen in the curing anchovy containing 20% of salt, kept the highest amount in 60 curing days. As a rule, minced anchovy showed more rapidly increased than whole anchovy. The lipid in curing anchovy containing 20% and 30% of salt has already been oxidized in 30 days while the lipid of anchovy cured with 40% salt prolonged the initial stage to 45 days. During fermentation, peroxide value and acid value showed constant increasing, while thiobarbituric acid began to decrease after 120 days curing. Among the non-polar lipids, linolenic acid, linoleic acid and erucic acid was decomposed by 24.5%, 22.2%, and 20.0%, respectively. It was noticed that the decomposition of polar lipid was retarded by higher salt content.

In order to investigate the content and seasonal variation of the extractive components including taste compounds, free amino acids, nucleotides and related compounds, quanternary ammonium bases, and guanidino compounds of ascidian collected from the south coast of Korea were determined bimonthy from April to October in 1990. The extractive nitrogen was composed of $60{\sim}62\%$ as free amino acids, $12{\sim}16\%$ as betaines, $5{\sim}9\%$ as nucleotides, and others as trimethylamine oxide(TMAO) and total creatinine. The muscle of ascidian was rich in such free amino acids as taurine, proline, glutamic acid, glycine and glycinebetaine. Most of nitrogenous compounds in the extractives showed a marked seasonal variation with a maximum in summer or autumn. AMP content was relatively high among nucleotides. Succinic acid, malic acid, lactic acid and pyroglutaric acid were the major organic acids in ascidian. The results of omission test suggested that the taste of ascidian is attributed to mainly free amino acid, betaines, nucleotides and nonvolatile organic acid in order.

In order to establish the processing conditions for salt-fermented liquefaction of anchovy(Engrulis japonica), changes in the amino acid composition from oligopeptides during fermentation periods were analyzed. Experimental sample A: chopped whole anchovy, adding 20% water, heating at $50^{\circ}C$ for 9 hrs and then adding 10% NaCl. Sample B: chopped whole anchovy, adding 20% water, heating at $50^{\circ}C$ for 9 hrs and then adding 13% NaCl. Sample C: chopped whole anchovy adding 13% NaCl. Sample D: whole anchovy adding 17% NaCl. The total amino acids from oligopeptides in fermented liquefaction of anchovy increased in early fermentation period and reached highest level, and then they declined irregularly during fermentation. Their maximum amounts were just after heating at $50^{\circ}C$ for 9 hrs in sample A, after 15 days in sample B, and after 60 days in samples C and D. The fermented liquefaction of anchovy extracts were rich in glutamic acid, aspartic acid, proline, glycine, alanine, lysine and valine. However, the contents of most amino acids fluctuated by the experimental specimens and fermenting periods. Among them glutamic acid was the most abundant amino acid which was occupied $0.6{\sim}27.7%$(average 24.0%) in the content of total amino acids from oligopeptides. The contribution of the amino acid composition from oligopeptides to extractive nitrogen was occupying average 20.8 and 17.5% in rapid- and low salt-fermented liquefaction(sample A, B and C) and traditional fermented liquefaction(sample D), respectively.
