Abstract
$\phi$-meson mass in nuclear matter ($m_{\phi}^*$) is investigated using an effective Lagrangian of $\phi$ interacting with octet baryons. $m_{\phi}^*$ decreases by a few \% in nuclear matter due to the current conservation and effective nucleon/hyperon masses. Its implication to the p-A and A-A collisions are briefly discussed.
