Abstract

During the process of curing of the tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L. ) leaves the concentration change of Nonvolatile organic acids and Higher fatty acids of the flue-cured tobacco leaves was observed. The contents of Nonvolatile organic acids in flue-cured tobacco leaves were as follows, malic> oxalic>malonic>citric>succinic acid. Higher fatty acids was linolenic>Palmitic>oleic >stearic$\geqq$linoleic acid, Citric acid content of last curing time was increased about 4~5 times in compare to before curing tobacco. It was concluded that significant changes of three variety flue-cured tobacco but a significant difference was observed in the composition of Daegu gold variety.
