The objective of this study was to manufacture the sea water cooling apparatus for fish hold storage to extend the freshness of fish. Using the sea water cooling apparatus manufactured, it makes observations on the physicochemical and sensual properties of mackerel such as ATP and its related compounds, K-value, VBN, TMA, TBA, salt-concentration and skin color through storage. The results of this investigation showed that the values of physicochemical properties such as ATP and its related compounds, K-value, VBN, TMA, TBA increased gradually during storage in sea water cooling apparatus manufactured and the changes of skin color was inhibited also. From these results, it could be suggested that developed sea water cooling apparatus is effective in shelf-life extension of fishes.

The powder and liquid products of seasoned and smoked skipjack tuna (Euthynus pelamis) was manufactured by using small skipjack tuna (1-2 kg, 20-30 cm) captured in the East Sea, Korea. Smoking was done three times at $80^{\circ}C$ for 8 hrs to decrease the moisture content below $15\%.$ The seasoned and smoked skipjack tuna powder with liquid smoke showed the lower pH than the control. The pH, VBN, amino nitrogen content, and TBA value were increased slowly as storage period was increased at room temperature. Liquid smoke decreased the production of animo nitrogen and VBN. Vacuum packaging was efficient for inhibiting the deterioration and the microbial growth of the seasoned and smoked skipjack tuna powder product.

The purpose of this study was to develop a real-time sensor for beef freshness. Contents of biogenic amines (BA), saccharides and proteins were highly related with freshness on the beef meats. Relations of those chemical contents and NIR spectra were studied. Tyramine showed the best correlation coefficient at 1250nm. Correlation between VBN (volatile basic nitrogen) and K value, which were both freshness measurement method, was determined by the PCR (principle component regression). The correlation model had the values of $R^2=0.989$ and SEC=1.78, respectively. The model was validated at $R^2=0.963$ and SEP=2.285, respectively.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of medicinal plants with additives on storage characteristics of sausage. The water activity of the sausage with the additives tended to decrease with the storage time: the highest value was shown in the Angelica added sausage samples, in both cases added with dried powder as well as with extracted powder. The Paeonia extract powder added sausage had the lowest pH value. The herbal plant added sausages showed the lowest cooking and storage losses among all. The values of TBA (thiobarbituric acid value) and VBN (volatile basic nitrogen) increased with storage time, but the values of the sample with the extract powder additive were lower than those of the freeze-dry powder additive. Total plate counts of bacteria increased with storage time fur all samples, but those for the samples with Pueraria, Platycodon, Angelica, Bupleurum and Paeonia additives exhibited lower values than the control. From the above results, the sausages with medicinal plant additives showed the superior storage safety and quality characteristics.

Commercially distributed salted and fermented anchovy sauces in Korea were purchased from six different companies. Microbiological, chemical, rheological and sensory analyses were carried out to evaluate the quality and safety and to provide basic information of the products. The salinity of every product was lower than of regulatory standard. All samples tested had acceptable in moisture content and pH. However, wide range of amino nitrogen (AN), volatile basic nitrogen(AN), volatile basic nitrogen (VBN), and trimethylamine (TMA) contents were observed. One product among tested had lower level of AN than regulatory standard. Pathogenic microorganisms were also detected from the samples, therefore sanitation procedure will be needed to ensure safety. From the results, AN, VBN, and viscosity were highly correlated to sensory scores, suggesting that these values can utilized as a standard method to evaluate quality of the salted and fermented anchovy sauce.

This study focused on the characteristics of manure in five beef cattle farms and two breeding farms in Hanwoo centered in Gyeongsangbuk-do province. The results of analysis and evaluation are as follows; First, the pH of manure in all the farms in this study was within the appropriate range of 8.81 to 9.45. Second, the dry matter content varied from 44.7% to 70.5% for all the farms. Third, the total nitrogen content in all the farms was 2.05-3.04%, which is higher than the reported range; however, it could play a role as a soil improvement agent when used as compost. Fourth, although the exact range of ammonia-N (VBN) content was not reported, results analyzed in all the farms showed that the level of impact on the environment was insignificant. In conclusion, soil and environment improvement effects are expected to be effective if the manure at Hanwoo farms in the Gyeongbuk area are used as compost through appropriate management.

To improve the low content of crude protein and low quality fermentation of napiergrass silage, ensiling with phasey bean was examined. Napiergrasses, (Pennisetum purpureum cv. Merkeron), hybrid napiergrass (Pennisetum purpureum${\times}$ Pennisetum typhoides) and phasey bean (Macroptilium lathyroides cv. Murray) were cultivated in Fukuoka, Japan. The first growth of napiergrasses and phasey bean were harvested at 90 days of age and chopped into about 1 cm lengths. The mixing levels of phasey bean with napiergrasses were 0, 25, 50 and 75; 700 g of plant materials were ensiled into a laboratory silo (1.0 litre. polyethylene container) and incubated for 30 days. After opening silos, pH, total nitrogen (TN), volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) and organic acids (lactic acid: LA, acetic acid: AA, butyric acid: BA) were determined. The experiment was a factorial design of $2{\times}4$ with 3 replicates. The data were analyzed statistically by two-way analysis of variance. Without inclusion of phasey bean, lower quality was observed for hybrid silage than for Merkeron silage. The inclusion of phasey bean at the rate of 25% increased DM and TN, and decreased pH value, VBN/TN, AA and BA in both Merkeron and hybrid napiergrass silages. The value of pH, TN, VBN/TN, AA and BA were not significantly different among 25, 50 and 75% mixing levels of phasey bean. LA production increased significantly with the increase in phasey bean mixing level in both hybrid and Merkeron silages. At all mixing levels of phasey bean, LA production did not show significant differences between Merkeron and hybrid silages.

This study was performed to investigate the changes in meat quality characteristics of the sous vide cooked chicken breast during refrigerated storage at 4℃ for 14 d between before and after sous-vide cooking. Cooking loss and shear force were significantly increased, whereas expressible drip was significantly decreased along with reduction in the water holding capacity in both of two groups. Redness of meat juice was significantly (p<0.05) increased during storage, and considerably increased in the refrigerated samples after sous-vide cooked at the 7 to 10 d. The thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) was significantly increased and was higher in the refrigerator stored chicken breast samples after sous-vide cooking. The volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) value was significantly increased in both groups, but the VBN value of the stored raw meat sample before sous-vide cooking was increased at an early storage, while the VBN value of the stored sample after sous-vide cooking was increased gradually in this study. Total viable counts and coliform counts were significantly decreased during storage, and coliforms were not detected after 7 d of storage in both groups. Salmonella spp. was not detected during the whole studied period. The outcome of this research can provide preliminary data that could be used to apply for further study of chicken breast using sous-vide cooking method that could be attractive to consumers.

TTI was applied to monitor the quality changes of fish displayed at a mock store. Chilled fishes were displayed with TTI on a styrofoam box filled with crushed ice. The ice was periodically refilled to maintain the fish freshness. The color of TTI and the qualities of mackerel and Alaska pollack were measured during displaying. VBN and Pseudomonas spp. were used as the quality factors of mackerel and Pollack, respectively. The spoilage time was regarded as when the factors reached their critical levels. The fishes were spoiled when the color of TTI reached an end-point. It was therefore found out that it is possible to predict the fish spoilage by observing the TTI color change.
