Radish roots were salted in 4 different salt concentrations (5, 10, 15, 20%) for 3 months followed by desalting. The effects of desalting process on salt concentration, Ca content, texture and sensory characteristics were investigated during 3 days of desalting period at $25^{\circ}C$. NaCl content in danmuji salted in lower NaCl concentrations decreased rapidly and a linear relationship was found between the decrease in NaCl content and the logarithmic value of desalting time. Changes in Ca content of danmuji also exhibited a similar trend to that of NaCl content. Hardness of radish root tended to increase wit an increase in desalting time up to 2 days of desalting and then decreased slightly at the 3rd day of desalting. The results of sensory evaluation revealed that regardless of salt concentration used acidic, salty odor and taste of danmuji decreased significantly during desalting, however, there was very little change in yeast-moldy odor and taste with the intensity being very low in danmuji salted in higher salt concentrations. Among the textural properties, the crispness of danmuji salted in 5, 10 and 20% NaCl concentrations increased up to 2 days of desalting and decreased slightly thereafter, whereas that of radish salted in 15% NaCl concentration increase continously during 3 days of desalting. Total acceptibility was best in danmuji salted in 20% NaCl concentration and desalted for 3 days.

In odor to improve preference to small red muscle fish such as saury, sardine, herring, etc., a new seasoning and conditioning process was experimented using kimchi seasoning ingredients and organic acids. The sensory profiles during 60 days of conditioning at $5^{\circ}C$ showed better results in dry salting than in wet salting. The additions of rice bran in dry salting gave advantageous effect on the sensory evaluation of conditioned saury with kimchi seasoning. The counts of remained fine bones and hardness of backbones after 60 days of conditioning were about $50\%\;and\;23\%$ in wet salted product, and $38\sim41\%$ and $11\sim14\%$ in dry salted product respectively, as compared to raw saury, The decomposition of protein to amino acids was more severe in wet salted product than in dry salted product. Histidine, leucine, glutamic acid, alanine, and valine in order were abundant in wet salted product, but histidine, glutamic acid, arginine, leucine, and alanine in order were contained plentifully in dry salted product.

Programmed cell death (PCD) is thought as a well-controlled process by which unwanted cells are selectively eliminated. During the last decade many researches have elucidated molecules and their interactions involved in cell death by using largely in vitro induction of cell death or survival signals in a more defined manner, While these critical information and novel findings provide us with clearer understanding of mechanisms underlying cell death, it does by no means explain how PCD occurs and which cells or tissues are affected during normal embryonic development in vivo. In this study, we used zebrafish to examine whether the PCD is occurring selectively or randomly in developing embryos by whole mount in situ TUNEL analysis with specific markers for neural cells. The result revealed that the degree and distribution of TUNEL staining varied considerably throughout gastrulation stage, and there was also a number of TUNEL-negative embryos. Most of TUNEL-positive cells were scattered randomly throughout the blastoderm. During the gastrulation stage about 75 % of the embryos analyzed exhibited more than 5 TUNEL-positive cells. As the dorsal epiblast begins to thicken rather abruptly near the end of gastrulation, TUNEL-positive cells were mainly located along the dorsal side. Although there were some variations in TUNEL staining during segmentation and pharyngeal stages, TUNEL staining continued to be localized to the central nervous system, and was also detected in the sensory organs, trigeminal ganglions, and the primary sensory neurons. High levels of the cell death in developing brain between 20-somite and prim-6 stages are thought to play a role in the morphogenesis and organization of the brain. At prim-16 stage, cell death is considerably reduced in the brain region. Dying cells are mainly localized to the prospective brain region where ectodermal cells are about to initiate neurogenesis. As development progressed, high levels and more reproducible patterns of cell death were observed in the developing nervous system. Intensive TUNEL staining was restricted to the trigeminal ganglions, the primary sensory neurons, and sensory organs, such as olfactory pits and otic vesicles. Thus, PCD patterning in zebrafish embryos occurs randomly at early stages and becomes restricted to certain region of the embryos. The spatio-temporal pattern of PCD during the early embryonic development in zebrafish will provide basic information for further studies to elucidate genes involved in. regulation of PCD largely unknown in vivo during vertebrate embryogenesis.

Recently, according to increase in production of pond snails resulting from the widespread organic farming, organic farmers are showing a lot of interests in the promotion of consumption and extending the market of pond snails. This study was performed to suggest the process of product development of the ready-to-eat pond-snail Mandu as a health food, to show the results of market test of the pilot product, and to investigate the change of the sensory characteristics during storage periods. For the market test of pond-snail Mandu, the survey was developed and delivered to consumers. The questionnaire consisted of 3 parts such as respondents demographic characteristics, customer's perception of pond-snail Mandu before tasting, and customer's perception of that after tasting. And the market test was carried out with university students, welfare institution residents and apartment residents in the Seoul and Gyeonggi areas. As a result of the test, the most important purchasing factors were determined in the order of taste (49.5%), hygienic quality (12.5%), nutritional value (10%) and price (9%). And only 4.2% of respondents selected brand name as an important purchasing factor. After tasting pond-snail Mandu, consumers had suggested the better taste (t=6.986, p<0.000) and price (t=2.082, p<0.05) than those of before tasting. In response to favorable impression of pond-snail Mandu, 54.5% of total respondents evaluated positively. The favorable impressions came from iron-rich Mandu (27.6%), high protein and nutritious Mandu (24.4%), calcium-rich Mandu (17.9%), diet Mandu (13.3%), and delicious Mandu (12.5%) respectively. Sensory characteristics of pond-snail Mandu were evaluated by professional panels in terms of the softness of Mandu skin, chewiness, moistness, toothpacking, color, aroma, saltiness, and degree of plain, taste, and aftertaste. The evaluation of sensory characteristics on a 7-point scale, showed that softness of mandu skin (4.44) and aftertaste (4.11) got a low scores. The statistical difference of the tastes (p>0.05) was not founded by storage period of 7, 14, 21 and 28 days. Based on the result, the improvement of these characteristics are desired in developing the pond-snail Mandu. Research method applied to this study can be useful for developing a new product.

We has been researched physicochemical, sensory and microbiological characteristics of salt-fermented shrimps after making them with different kinds of salts such as domestic or imported and purified or solar salt. Physicochemical characteristics of salt-fermented shrimps on color, salinity and pH which was made by 6 kinds of salt did not show any difference in the overall processing. However, in case of amino-N content, it showed the higher level of its contents at the process of Korean solar salt comparing to other. In case of microbiological, the total viable cells was detected most from the Australian solar salt during the initial stage of fermentation, but after 12-week of fermentation, the Chinese solar salt showed the largest number of total viable cells. Also, it found the Korean solar salt contained the lowest level of coliforms, while it found the highest level of coliforms contents in Chinese solar salt. However, there were no significant differences of microbiological characteristics from the salt-fermented shrimp made with 6 kinds of salt(p<0.05). As a result of sensory quality on salt-fermented shrimps, domestic salts was higher than imported. But there were no significant difference of sensory quality from the salt-fermented shrimps made with 6 different kinds of salt(p<0.05).

This study was investigated for the purpose of obtaining basic data for application to the canning process of salt-fermented anchovy Engraulis japonica fillet using tomato paste. The salt fermented anchovy fillet was prepared by fermenting anchovy fillet with salt 15% at $5^{\circ}C$ for 15 days and then cold air drying the salt-fermented anchovy fillet for 1 h at $16{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. The dried salt-fermented anchovy fillet 85 g was filled with 60 g of tomato paste sauce (tomato paste 42%, gum guar 1.0%, salt 2.0%, starch syrup 2.0%, cooking wine 1%, water 52%) and seamed by vacuum seamer in 301-3 can, then sterilized at Fo 9 and 11 min in a steam system retort at $121^{\circ}C$, respectively. The factors such as chemical composition, pH, total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N), amino-N, color value (L, a, b), texture profile, thiobarbituric acid (TBA) value, sensory evaluation and viable bacterial count of the canned salt-fermented anchovy fillet were measured. Texture value of the product sterilized at Fo 11 min was higher than at Fo 9 min condition. In both sterilized cans, the viable bacterial counts were not detected. There was no remarkable difference in physicochemical between sterilization conditions. As a result of sensory evaluation, most sensory evaluation inspector judged that it was difficult to distinguish the sensory difference of both products sterilized at Fo 9 min and at 11 min. The results showed that sterilization of Fo 9 min was more desirable than that of Fo 11 min to prepare canned salt-fermented anchovy fillet using tomato paste sauce, because this condition is more economical.

To evaluate the effects of surimi substitution to spent laying hen crushed breast meat on the quality of the Cremi during storage, this study was conducted. Spent laying hen breast meat was crushed using a silent cutter, which is normally adapted to the sausage process. The Cremis were manufactured by the addition of 5 or 10% CSBM and separated to three different groups including control and 5 (05CM) and 10% crushed meat (10CM) treatments. All cremis were packaged and stored at $10{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ for 3 weeks, and the analysis for the determination of physicochemical and sensory properties of cremi was conducted on week 0 and 3 of storage only. Moisture content was significantly differed depending on storage days and both 05CM and 10CM had high moisture content as compared to that of control (p<0.05). In addition, TBARS was lowered when surimi was substituted up to 10% CM as compared to cremis manufactured by the addition of 5% CM. The cremis sampled from 05CM and 10CM treatments had low in CIE $a^*$, in contrast showed high in CIE $b^*$ than control (p<0.05). The substitution of surimi to CM did not influence on sensory characteristics even though shear force and gel characteristics were affected (p<0.05). In conclusion, the results indicate that although significantly lowered shear force and gel characteristics were determined in 05CM cremis (p<0.05), trained sensory panels did not recognize the differences of 5 or 10% CM addition. Therefore, it seems that the substitution of surimi up to 10% CM may be secured and economically considerable.

The gamma irradiation process was performed to prolong a shelf-life of peaches and the effects of a gamma irradiation on the nutritional, physiochemical and sensory characteristics of peaches were evaluated during a post-irradiation storage at $4^{\circ}C$ and $25^{\circ}C$. Nutritional, physiochemical and sensory characteristics of peaches were stable at 1 kGy of an irradiation, a recommended dose for fruits and vegetables by CODEX, and the viable cell counts of contaminated microorganisms were reduced by 2 decimal reduction, at this dose. After a 1-week storage at ambient condition, the microbiological quality of the 1 kGy irradiated peach was stable, while all the non-irradiated peaches were deteriorated Furthermore, cold storage enhanced the shelf-life of the gamma irradiated peach and the nutritional and physiochemical characteristics of the peaches were comparatively stable up to 6 weeks. Right after gamma irradiation, the sensory evaluation results were not different in any of the samples, and the sensory quality of the irradiated peaches was adequate for a 4-week storage at $4^{\circ}C$. Our results suggested that gamma irradiation at 1 kGy can be used to enhance the shelf-life of peach without a significant loss in the quality attributes, especially upon cold storage after radiation treatment.

In this study, the vacuum distillation process for producing non-alcoholic red wine was optimized via response surface methodology. As a result of optimizing the responses (alcohol content, yield) for independent variables (operating time, boiling point, and temperature difference), 1% alcohol content and 81.15% yield were obtained at an operating time of 24.5 min, boiling point of 65℃, and temperature difference of 8℃. To investigate the physicochemical and sensory properties, non-alcoholic wines with different boiling points (bp 25℃, bp 45℃, and bp 65℃) and a blended wine (4.2% of control wine added) were prepared. As the boiling point increased, the alcohol content decreased, and CI (color intensity) and Hue increased. Blended wine exhibited the highest value and bp 65℃ showed the lowest value in terms of sensory properties. In conclusion, distillation at a low boiling point and blending control wine could be used to prepare non-alcoholic wine with a high preference.
