Experiment was conducted to establish the standard of quality evaluation in Korean cultivated peony roots. free sugars, free amino acids, organic acids and aromatic components, which were generally considered to be information components of five sensory test in peony roots, were examined. As free sugars, sucrose, glucose and fructose were identified in peony roots. $\gamma-aminoisobuturic$ acid, arginine and other 16 kinds of free amino acids were found in peony roots. The major organic acids of peony roots were oxalic acid, citric acid and malic acid. Eugenol and other 10 aromatic components were identified in peony roots by GC/MSD.

Soybean sprout is a year-round traditional vegetable that is easily produced and relatively inexpensive in Korea. In addition, the sprout is known as a good source of protein, vitamins and minerals. The quality of the soybean sprout has been mainly evaluated only by its appearance like length, width, color, and the others without considering any odor or taste attributes. We studied the chemical factors affecting taste of soy sprouts cultivated with 5 recommended soybean cultivars through evaluation of chemical constituents in relation to their sensory characteristics. Correlation coefficient among the chemical constituents and sensory characteristics of soybean sprout showed that the linolenic acid and Ca contents were positively correlated with total acceptability of soybean sprout and histidine, aspartic acid, and serine showed a negative association with beany odor of soybean sprout. Multiple regression analysis was done to formulate selection criteria for good taste of soy sprout. The estimation of step-wise regression analysis conducted by 47 chemical components for major quality-related characteristics showed that linolenic acid and mineral contents were the main components increasing the acceptability of soybean sprout.

This study aims to find the taste compounds of wild loach, Misgurnis mizolepis, which is important fresh-water fish in this country. In order to elucidate the origin of the taste of wild loach meat, free amino acids, organic bases, nucleotides and their related compounds, organic acids, sugars and minerals were analyzed, and then followed by organoleptic test of synthetic extract prepared on the basis of the analytical data. Sensory evaluations of synthetic extracts prepared by omitting each extractive components were carried out by a triangle difference test, and changes in taste profile were assessed. In free amino acid composition, histidine, threonine, glycine, lysine, alanine were abundant. IMP and AMP were dominant in the wild loach in content. Total creatinine and butyric acid were abundant. As for the minerals, $Na^+,\;K^+,\;Cl^-\;and\;PO_4^{3-}$ were found to be the major ions. From the results of omission test of synthetic extracts the major components which contribute to produce the taste were arginine, glutamic acid, valine, aspartic acid, IMP, succinic acid, $Na^+,\;K^+,\;Ca^{2+}\;Mg^{2+}\;Cl^-\;and\;PO_4^{3-}$.

In order to elucidate the taste compounds of wild eel, Anguilla japonica, free amino acids, nucleotides and their related compounds, organic bases, sugars, organic acids and minerals were analyzed, and then followed by organoleptic test of synthetic extract prepared on the basis of the analytical data. Taste panel assessments of synthetic extracts prepared with each extractive component omitted were carried out by a triangle difference test, and changes in profile were assessed. In free amino acid composition, lysine was dominant occupying $25\%$ of total free amino acid. The other abundant amino acids were glycine, arginine, alanine and histidine. From the results of analysis of nucleotides, IMP was dominant showing about $70\%$ of total nucleotides while ATP, ADP, AMP, inosine and hypoxanthine were low in content. Among organic bases total creatinine was abundant. The amount of betaine was 24 mg/100 g. The main organic acid were butyric acid, valeric acid and succinic acid. As for the sugars, glucose and inositol were 1-2 mg/ 100g in content. $K^+,\;Na^+,\;PO_{4}^{3-}\;and\;Cl^-$ were found to be the major ions. From the results of omission test the major components which contribute to produce the taste were glycine, serine, glutamic acid, IMP, $Na^+,\;K^+,\;Cl^-,\;PO_{4}^{3-}$, lysine, alanine, isoleucine, aspartic acid and creatinine.

Although instant coffee is less palatable than freshly brewed coffee, it is widely consumed primarily due to its convenience. Frequently, instant coffee is consumed in the form of a coffee-mix. It contains coffee creamer or dried skim milk, and sugar in addition to soluble coffee. The aim of this study was to investigate the volatile aroma compounds (VACs) of instant black coffee mixed with coffee creamer or dried skim milk by Gas Chromatography-Headspace-Solid Phase Microextraction (GC-HS-SPME) and sensory evaluation. A total of 16 different coffee samples including instant black coffee and coffee mixes with coffee creamer or dried skim milk, were chosen for this study. The coffee samples contained several common VACs such as pyrazine, pyridine, and pyrrole. Sensory evaluation indicated that the flavor intensity of coffee mix was less pronounced than that of instant black coffee alone. Coffee creamer and skim milk had little distinctive aroma per se; however, they significantly contributed to the flavor profile of coffee mixes, suggesting that coffee creamer and skim milk acted as flavor modifiers in coffee mix.

차의 풍미의 차이는 차잎 자체가 가자고 있는 화학성분 조성의 차이와 가공방법의 차이에 기인하고, 차잎의 화학성분은 차나무의 훔종, 토질, 기후, 재배기술과 시비 등에도 영향을 받는다. 차의 특유한 맛의 주성분은 주로 카테킨과 아미노산류이다. 단맛과 감칠맛은 주로 아미노산 때문이지만 당류도 어느 정도 기여한다. 카테킨류에 의한 최근의 연구결과를 보면 노화를 방지하는 1)항산화 작용 2) 항종양, 발암 억제작용 3) 콜레스테롤 량의 조정 4)고혈압과 혈당 강하작용 5)항균작용과 해독작용이 있다.

To reduce the astringent taste of lotus root, the effects of various treatment methods such as drying, soaking, steaming and roasting on the physicochemical properties and sensory characteristics were investigated. The following process conditions were selected: 1) drying (D), 2) soaking followed by drying ($SK{\rightarrow}D$), 3) steaming followed by drying ($ST{\rightarrow}D$), 4) drying followed by roasting ($D{\rightarrow}R$), 5) soaking and then drying followed by roasting ($SK{\rightarrow}D{\rightarrow}R$), 6) steaming and then drying followed by roasting ($ST{\rightarrow}D{\rightarrow$}. The tannin content of the lotus root was lowest when it was treated by steaming followed by drying ($ST{\rightarrow}D$). The astringent taste of lotus root was reduced by steaming, and the roasted taste was improved by roasting in terms of sensory and flavor characteristics. Consequently, lotus root treated by steaming and then drying followed by roasting ($ST{\rightarrow}D{\rightarrow}R$) showed the highest preference with respect to astringent and roasted taste.

This study attempts to develop a mass production product standardized by the application of high pressure extraction cooking(HPEC) in order to suggest a desirable direction for the development of salt contained standardized chicken stock. In our experiment on chicken stock with varying its salt content, the total free amino acid content was highest in S3, which contained 0.3% of salt In addition, when the total content of free amino acid was divided into the contents of essential amino acid, palatable amino acid, and other types of amino acid, they showed the same distribution as the total content of free amino acid. In addition, the total content of palatable amino acid was highest among the specimens. In the results of investigating the palatability of chicken stock according to salt content, saltiness increased with the increase of the salt content, but no significant difference was observed in preference for saltiness. It is believed to have come from the difference in the sensory evaluators' preference for saltiness, and it shows that the salt content has an effect on sweet taste, delicate taste, fishy smell, and color. In particular, specimen 83, which contained 0.3% of salt, showed the highest content of palatable amino acid, and the highest level of delicate taste in sensory tests, suggesting the correlation between palatable amino acid and delicate taste.

멍게류는 분류학적으로 무척추동물과 척추동물의 중간에 위치한 원색동물문(原索動物門)에 속하는 생물로서, 전세계적으로 약 2,000여종이 서식하고 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 멍게류 중 산업적으로 가치가 있는 종은 우렁쉥이(Halocynthia roretzi)로서, 그 특유의 향기 및 맛으로 인해 우리나라와 일본 등지에서 생선회와 더불어 즐겨 먹고 있는 수산식품이다. 우렁쉥이의 식품학적 특징으로는 특유의 맛과 trans-2, cis-7-decadien-1-ol 등과 같은 포화 및 불포화 1급알코올 등을 주로한 취기성분을 들 수 있는데, 이를 기호적으로 이를 즐기는 사람이 있는 반면 극히 싫어하는 사람도 있다.
