This study was performed to examine the effects of Curcuma aromatica (CA) and orange rind on the quality and sensory score of flying fish $Cypselurus$ $agoo$ $agoo$ roe treated with electrolyzed water during frozen storage ($-18^{\circ}C$). The pH was decreased with increasing amounts of CA extract added to flying fish roe and during frozen storage. The flying fish roe treated with CA extract showed increased yellowness, as compared to flying fish roe with no CA extract added and untreated with electrolyzed water (untreated). The flying fish roe containing CA extract maintained greater hardness than did untreated flying fish roe. The volatile basic nitrogen and trimethylamine contents of treated flying fish roe were lower than those of untreated flying fish roe during frozen storage. The results of volatile organic compound tests showed that the contents of alcohol, acid and ketone compounds in flying fish roe treated with CA extract and orange rind were relatively decreased, but the limonene content of treated flying fish roe was increased compared to that of untreated flying fish roe. In sensory evaluation, flying fish roe containing 0.05 and 0.1% of CA were preferred over others. In conclusion, CA and orange rind increased the quality and sensory scores of flying fish roe treated with electrolyzed water.

Flying fish Cypselurus agoo roe is a popular food ingredient due to its abundant nutrition, unique texture, and flavor. It contains high levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids, protein, and minerals such as calcium, phosphorus, potassium, and vitamins (A, B₁, B₂, B₆, and niacin), making it a highly utilized food ingredient. Additionally, it is widely used as a raw material for food and cooking in several countries. After harvesting, flying fish roe is dried and transported to processing plants, where it performed a re-moisturizing process. However, the conventional re-moisturizing process is time-consuming and results in some loss of quality. Thus, this study investigates the conditions required for the re-moisturization of flying fish roe including the composition of the immersion solution, immersion time, and conditions that could minimize damage to the roe. The results suggest a reasonable composition of immersion solution to minimize damage to flying fish roe and the most appropriate immersion time for re-moisturization. These results may provide valuable insights for the industry to enhance the quality of re-moisturized flying fish roe, leading to an increase in its market value and demand.

Due to decreased supplies of marine resources and byproducts, new processing technologies for the development of analogs for natural fishery products are becoming increasingly important in the fishing industry. In the present study, we investigated the optimal processing conditions for flying fish roe analogs based on alginate hydrogels. Optimized processing of these analogs was performed by response surface methodology. The optimal processing conditions for the flying fish roe analogs (based on sphericity) were at a sodium alginate concentration of 2.41 %, calcium chloride solution curing time of 40.65 min, calcium chloride concentration of 1.51 %, and a reactor stir speed of $254{\times}g$. When the experiment was performed under these optimized conditions, the size (mm), sphericity (%), and rupture strength (kPa) of the analogs were $2.2{\pm}0.12$, $98.2{\pm}0.2$, and $762{\pm}24.68$, respectively, indicating physical properties similar to their natural counterparts.

The present study was conducted to elucidate effects of heat, salt and hydrocolloid treatments on flying fish Cypselurus agoo roe analogs prepared using calcium alginate gel. The changes in size, sphericity and rupture strength of the analogs as affected by treatments of heat, sodium chloride and hydrocolloids were investigated. The size (mm), sphericity (%), and rupture strength (kPa) of the analogs were $2.2{\pm}0.1$, $98.2{\pm}0.2$, and $74.7{\pm}1.7$, respectively. When the analogs were heated at $95^{\circ}C$ in water, the size was slightly decreased. The rupture strength by curing with 2% sodium chloride was slightly increased. Sphericity didn't show significant differences by sodium chloride and heat treatment. The rupture strength of the analogs was slightly decreased by heat treatment, whereas remarkably decreased by curing with sodium chloride. In order to prevent a remarkable decrease in rupture strength of the analogs by curing with sodium chloride, the analogs were treated with hydrocolloids such as xanthan gum, gum guar, glucomannan, pectin and gelatin. The hydrocolloids treated analogs showed an increment in size and no significant changes in sphericity. On the other hand, the rupture strength of the hydrocolloids treated analogs exhibited remarkable increase than that of untreated ones.

The food quality characterization and safety Japanese flying fish roe (JFF-R), capelin roe (C-R), Pacific herring roe (PH-R) were investigated. The size of JFF-R was 1.48-1.93 mm, which was longer than those of C-R and PH-R. The moisture content of JFF-R imported from Peru (JFF-R-P) was 70.3%, which was higher than that of JFF-R imported from China (JFF-R-C) (67.4%), while was lower than that of JFF-R imported from Indonesia (JFF-R-I) (83.3%). However, the salinity of JFF-R-P was 13.6%, which was lower than that of JFF-R-C, while was higher that of JFF-R-I (1.8%). The moisture contents and salinities of the other fish roes were 80.4% and 3.2%, respectively, for capalin roe, and 65.4% and 20.0%, respectively, for Pacific herring roe. According to the results of pH, volatile basic nitrogen content, heavy metal content, viable cell count and coliform group, the fish roes could be used as sanitary sources for preparation of seasoned JFF-R. The major fatty acids of fish roes were 16:0 (27.8-30.5%), 18:1n-9 (7.2-8.0%), 20:5n-3 (5.6-8.2%) and 22:6n-3 (22.0-25.6%) in JFF-R, and 16:1n-7 (6.7-9.3%) as well as these fatty acids in C-R and PH-R. Total amino acid contents of fish roes ranged from 9.44 g/100 g to 10.39 g/100 g and their major amino acids were aspartic acid, glutamic acid, leucine and lysine. The mineral content of JFF-R were higher than those of the other fish roes expected for zinc of JFF-R-I. According to the results of sensory evaluation, the color and texture of JFF-R-P were superior to those of the other fish roes. No difference was, however, found in flavor, among JFF-R-P and the other fish roes.

In this study, seafood products (n=26) sold on sushi buffet restaurants in the city of Wonju were monitored by analyzing sequences of DNA barcode markers (cytochrome c oxidase subunit I and 16S ribosomal RNA genes). NCBI BLAST database was screened with the barcode sequences analyzed as a query for species identification. The BLAST search revealed that fifteen samples (58%) analyzed were consistent with their labeling information; however, the ingredients used in seven samples (27%) were not compliant with their label information. In the case of these mislabeled products, ingredients for sutchi catfish sushi and cherry bass sashimi were identified as Pangasianodon hypophthalmus and Lampris guttatus, respectively. For Japanese flying-fish roe sushi and Pacific herring roe sushi, roe of Mallotus villosus was used as an ingredient. Amphioctopus fangsiao and A. membranaceus were used in octopus sushi and soybean-marinated squid products, respectively. This monitoring result can contribute to the protection of consumer rights and the reduction of fraudulent practices in the food industry.

There is a limitation to estimate vitamin $B_{12}$ intake due to a lack of data on vitamin $B_{12}$ content in many Korean foods. In this study, vitamin $B_{12}$ content was determined in some seaweeds, fish, and shellfish and their product that are consumed in Korea using a modified microbioassay with Lactobacillus delbruecki ATCC 7830. Dried laver and dried seasoned and toasted laver contained very high levels of vitamin $B_{12}$ (66.8 and $55.2-71.3\;{\mu}g$/100 g, respectively. Sea lettuce and seaweed fulvescene also contained high vitamin $B_{12}$ content of 5.47-9.41 and $6.46-7.20\;{\mu}g$/100 g, respectively, whereas sea mustard and sea tangle contained low levels of vitamin $B_{12}$; vitamin $B_{12}$ was not detected in seaweed fusifome. Pacific saury, trout, sea-bass, or squid contained 12.01, 2.00, 0.49 and $2.33\;{\mu}g$ vitamin $B_{12}$/100 g, respectively. Ochellatus octopus, and naked sand lance contained 0.72-1.43 and $3.68\;{\mu}g$ vitamin $B_{12}$/100 g, respectively. Dried Alaska pollack con-tained $0.19-2.64\;{\mu}g$ vitamin $B_{12}$/100 g. Shellfish such as little neck clam and small ark shellfish contained high levels of vitamin $B_{12}$ of $30.5-40.5\;{\mu}g$/100 g, and mussel and abalone contained 17.71 and $7.82\;{\mu}g$/100 g, respectively. Of unique Korean traditional fermented seafood products, salt-fermented products of squid ($2.91\;{\mu}g$/100 g), clams ($34.31\;{\mu}g$/100 g), Ala-ska pollack roe ($9.98-12.02\;{\mu}g$/100 g), hairtail guts ($4.58\;{\mu}g$/100 g) or small shrimp ($0.58-1.55\;{\mu}g$/100 g), and fish sauce from anchovies ($1.52-1.78\;{\mu}g$/100 mL), sand eel ($0.22-0.24\;{\mu}g$/100 mL) or small shrimp ($0.19-0.78\;{\mu}g$/100 mL) were analyzed. A few commercial brands of flying fish roe ($0.73-1.73\;{\mu}g$/100 g), canned tuna ($0.40\;{\mu}g$/100 g), and fried fish paste ($0.25-0.69\;{\mu}g$/100 g) were also analyzed. In conclusion, vitamin $B_{12}$ content in these foods, chosen considering the Korean food culture, should contribute to improve the present vitamin $B_{12}$ food database. It may be helpful to estimate vitamin $B_{12}$ intake more correctly than before, and provide additional information for dietary education related to vitamin $B_{12}$ and meal management.
