The enzymatic hydrolysate of skipjack tuna cooking drip with good functionality was prepared by incubation with Alcalase for 30 min. For the preparation of functional seasoning sauce with enzymatic hydrolysate (SSE), the additives, such as concentrated enzymatic hydrolysate (100 mL), yeast extract powder (0.7 g), lactose (0.4 mL), liquid smoke (0.3 g) and sea tangle powder (1.4 g), were added to the enzymatic hydrolysate and boiled before filtration. The proximate composition of SSE was 11.8% for crude protein, 5.77 for pH and 11.9% for salinity. The SSE was higher in the crude protein, while lower in the salinity than commercial seasoning sauce. ACE inhibitory activity ($IC_{50}$) and antioxidative activity (PF) of SSE were 6.2 mg/mL and 1.14, respectively, which were superior to those (9.9 mg/mL in IC50 and 0.91 in PF) of commercial seasoning sauce. The free amino acid content (1,905.2 mg/100 mL) and taste value (58.65) of SSE were higher than in those (712.7 mg/100 mL and 34.30, respectively) of commercial sauce. Total amino acid content of SSE (10,965 mg/100 mL) was higher than that (4,818 mg/100 mL) of commercial sauce. The major amino acids of SSE were glutamic acid (12.2%), proline (11.0%), histidine (10.7%) and glycine (9.9%). The results suggested that SSE could be commercially sold.

For the improvement on the quality and functionality of red tanner crab cooking drip, the preparation of hydrolysates from red crab cooking drip using commercial enzymes (Alcalase, Flavourzyme, Neutrase and Protamex) was attempted and its taste, nutritional and functional characteristics were also investigated. According to the results of heavy metal contents and proximate composition, red tanner crab cooking drip (RTCCD) could be used as a food resource. From the results of the trichloroacetic acid soluble index (TSI), angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) inhibiting activity and antioxidative activity, RTCCD hydrolysates incubated with Alcalase for 2 hrs was superior to the other one-step hydrolysates. There were no differences in the ACE inhibiting activity and antioxidative activity between one-step hydrolysates, which was incubated with Alcalase for 2 hrs, and two-step hydrolysates sequentially incubated with Alcalase and other enzymes. Alcalase-treated hydrolysates was similar in proximate composition and Hunter color value, while high in free amino acid content compared with crab cooking drip. Total amino acid content of Alcalase-treated hydrolysates was 11.9 g/100 mL and the major amino acids were glutamic acid (10.2%), proline (10.1%) and glycine (10.7%).

For the use of antarctic krill as a fond protein source its compositional characteristics were investigated as the first part of the work includes other subjects such as processing of drill paste, concentrates, and fermented or seasoned product. In general composition of fresh frozen and preboiled frozen krill on board, the contents of crude fat and free amino nitrogen were higher in the former than in the latter which contained a high amount of ash. VBN was rather high as much as 37.6 and $26.4\;mg\%$ in both fresh frozen and preboiled krill. The pH of drill homogenates was 7.1 to 7.2 in both cases. Such a low pH might be attributed to a long term storage and temperature fluctuations during frequent transshipping. The amino acid competition of fresh frozen krill meat showed relatively high amount of glutamic acid, aspartic acid, lysine, proline, and leucine while methionine, histidine, serine, tyrosine, and phenylalanine were lower. Among the essential amino acids lysine and leucine were higher and methionine was lower. In tile composition of free amino acid proline, lysing, arginine, and alanine were higher comparatively to the contents of histidine, aspartic acid, serine, and threonine. It is noteworthy for nutritional qualification that tile essential amino acids particularly as lysine were abundant similarly to that of fishes. Heavy metal contents of krill meat 0.039 to 0.048 ppm as Hg, 0.06 to 0.11 ppm as Pb, less than 0.32 ppm as Zn, 0.008 to 0.012 ppm as Cd, 0.61 to 0.68 ppm as Fe, 0.87 to 1.37 ppm as Cu, and nondetective as Cr. A high Cu content seems to be resulted by tile blood pigment of crustacea. The ratio,1 of edible portion to non-edible portion were 37:63 in fresh frozen and 42:58 in preboiled frozen krill respectively. Release of drip after thawing was more in fresh frozen than in preboiled frozen drill marking $36\%$ and $24\%$ of both respectively.

To obtain a value-added product from the non-toxic brown-backed toadfish Lagocephalus gloveri (pufferfish), we developed a retort pouched pufferfish soup (RPS) and characterized its processing conditions and quality metrics. We found that the most appropriate manufacturing process for the RPS consisted of detoxifying and cold-water dipping the pufferfish flesh, blanching it, and adding it to the retort pouch along with other ingredients (hot-water extract of pufferfish head and carcass, radish, bean sprouts, and garlic), after which the pouch was sealed, sterilized (120℃, F₀ value 7.5-10 min.), cooled, and inspected. The moisture, crude protein, and total volatile basic nitrogen contents of the RPS were 97.2%, 1.3% and 7.7 mg/100 g, respectively. The total free amino acid content was 903.2 mg/100 g, and the main free amino acids were glutamic acid, taurine, lysine, glycine, threonine, alanine, arginine, proline, and hydroxyproline. Sterilizing the RPS for up to F₀ value 10 min. did not cause any major problems in terms of chemical or sensory qualities. This RPS has good storage stability and organoleptic qualities compared with similar commercial pufferfish soups and is suitable for commercialization as a value-added instant seafood soup.

Home-made soy sauces with or without Hovenia dulcis Thunb (Hutgae) originated from different parts such as fruits, stems, and twigs were prepared according to the Korean traditional procedure. Soy sauces supplemented with Hutgae were evaluated for their activities of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging (DPPH) and alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), free amino acid profiles, and sensory quality. All soy sauce types containing Hutgae had a strong DPPH activity as compared to the general type of soy sauce without Hutgae (GSC). Among Hutgae groups, DPPH activities of soy sauce supplemented with Hutgae stems was higher than that of soy sauces with either Hutgae fruits or twigs. ADH activities of soy sauces with Hutgae ranged from 14% to 55%, thus indicating that the functional activity of Hutgae was not altered during soy sauce preparations. Total free amino acid content of GSC was 295.5 mg%, and that of soy sauce with Hutgae fruits (346.8 mg%) was the highest when compared to Hutgae stems (272.3 mg%) and Hutgae twigs (225.6 mg%). In amino acid profiles, aspartate, arginine, histidine, and lysine levels were higher in soy sauces with Hutgae compared to GSC, whereas isoleucine, leucine, and phenylalanine levels were lower. Particularly, high levels of aspartate, glutamate, threonine, and lysine were presented in Hutgae twigs, whereas for Hutgae fruits and Hutgae stems, the levels of serine, glycine and arginine, and proline and methionine were high, respectively. According to sensory evaluations, Hutgae stems were preferred than GSC, due to the lower offensive smell and higher umami tastes. These findings demonstrate that soy sauce with Hutgae stems has potential protective effects against hangovers, improves the taste, and implies a possible functional ingredient.

New application of rice was carried out by coating the rice with the mixture solution of ginseng and chungkukjang water extract The physicochemical characteristics of the coated rice were investigated. Moisture content of uncoated (15.26%) and coated rice$(15.57\sim15.66%)$ was not different significantly. The contents of crude protein, crude fat, and crude ash of the coated rice were higher as much as $4.28\sim11.82%\;8.47\sim47.46%$, and $11.54\sim42.31%$ than those of control, respectively. As total free amino acids in coated rice were increased by augmenting the amount of the extract, total free amino acids according to rate was increased to $3.1\sim7.8$ times. The major amino acids in the coated rice was alanine$(19.56\sim39.88\;mg%)$, leucine$(5.14\sim17.66\;mg%)$, and proline$(9.98\sim16.82\;mg%)$. Of those amino acids, alanine and $\gamma-aminobutyric$ acid in only coated rice were detected to the level of $19.56\sim39.88\;mg%$ and $7.78\sim12.36\;mg%$ respectively. The calcium amount of coated rice was increased to 15% to 20%. As increasing the coating rate, hardness, cohesiveness, chewiness, and brittleness of coated rice were decreased, but springiness was increased. Before cooking, the color of coated rice appeared yellow and after cooking turned to the light yellow. The color intensity was increased feasibly as increasing the coating rate. The sensory characteristic of rice coated manufactured by adding 15% of the extract was best and found to be similar to that of the control.

This study was performed to investigate the effects of high pressure/high temperature (HPHT) treatment on the recovery efficiency and characteristics of porcine placenta hydrolysates. The placenta hydrolysates were characterized by solubility, free amino acid contents, gel electrophoresis, gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and amino acid composition. Placenta was treated at 37.5 MPa of pressure combined with various temperatures (150, 170, and $200^{\circ}C$) or various holding times (0, 30, and 60 min at $170^{\circ}C$). Insoluble raw placenta collagen was partially solubilized (> 60% solubility) by the HPHT treatment. Free amino group content of placenta collagen was increased from 0.1 mM/g collagen to > 0.3 mM/g collagen after HPHT treatment, reflecting partial hydrolysis of collagen. The molecular weight ($M_w$) distribution showed evidence of collagen hydrolysis by shifting of $M_w$ peaks toward low molecular weight when treated temperature or holding time was increased. Alanine (Ala), glycine (Gly), hydroxyproline (Hyp), and proline (Pro) contents increased after the HPHT treatments compared to a decrease in the others. In particular, the increase in Gly was obvious, followed by Hyp and Pro, reflecting that placenta hydrolysates were mainly composed of these amino acids. However, increasing temperature or holding time hardly affected the amino acid compositions. These results indicate that the HPHT treatment is advantageous to hydrolyze collagen derived from animal by-products.

Powder-type dried pollack was added to Kimchi, the groups were stored at 4$^{\circ}C$, respectively, physicochemical, microbiological, and sensory properties of the Kimchi were examined according to the stored durations. The pH appeared to have almost similar values in the early stages of the fermentation. Generally, the groups with the additional powder-type dried Pollack had high pHs in the later stages of the fermentation. For the changes in the acidity, until the optimum edible period was reached, the groups with the additional powder-type dried Pollack required longer than those groups with additional fluid anchovy sauce. With regard to the salinity, there were no significant differences between the respective groups. For changes with regard to the reducing sugar, from the early to late fermentation stages, the greatest content was shown in the no additional protein source group, however, after the optimum edible period, there were no significant differences between the treated groups. In the case of free amino acids, the total quantities of Serine, Glycine, Threonine, Proline and Alanine, which all have a sweet taste, were usually found to have increased too almost twice those in the control groups, on the addition of 0.80% powder-type dried Pollack to the Kimchi. As a result of examining the microbiological properties, the time spent reaching the maximum numbers was longer in the additional powder-type dried Pollack groups. Similarly, the maximum numbers of lactic acid bacteria also appeared at the same time, but the difference between the treated groups was small, compared with the total numbers of microorganisms. As a result of the sensory evaluation, the treated groups generally gained better evaluations for several items. corresponded to the addition of 0.65% powder-type dried Pollack.
