Free and total amino acids of before and after the heating of the small shrimps were analysed quantitatively, in order to confirm the role of amino acids as important precursors of cooked odor components. Differences of free amino acids contents of the three samples were slightly reconized but free amino acids contents of all sample decreased as about half by heating, It seems that decreased amino acids participate In volatile components of the Small Shrimps. (Sergia lucens Hancen, Euphausia Surperba and Euphausia pacifica Hancen). The amino-carbonyl model reaction was carried out, in order to confirm formation mechanism of volatile compounds of the small shrimps during cooking. The model systems constituted by diluted solutions. of glucose and amino acids (proline, taurine and betaine) the most containing in small shrimps. The volatile odor concentrates of model system were obtained by simultaneous distillation and extraction with Nickerson's apparatus. The odor concentrates of model systems(I, III) had not small shrimp-like odor and main compounds were 1,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2-acetopyridine and 2-acetyl pyridine. In model system II, hetero ring nitrogen and sulfur compounds identified in small shrimps were not did.

The etching solution for slimming of glass substrates was manufactured and HF was used as the main ingredient of wet etching solutions. Various types of strong acids such as HCl, HNO₃, H₂SO₄, amino acids and carboxylic acids such as citric acid, and etched solutions, respectively, were used to measure the etching rates and changes in surface shape of the glass. Regardless of the type of strong acids, the etching rate of the glass increased linearly as the added amount increased, and the sludge removal effect of the glass surface was also shown. The etching solution containing HCl showed more efficient results than other strong acids in the etching rate and the effect of removing sludge. The addition of carboxylic acid did not significantly affect the variation of etching rate, but had the effect of removing sludge. However, if amino acids were added, changes in etching rate and sludge removal were not significant.

This study was carried out to investigate the changes in antioxidant activity, and the isoflavone and free amino acid content in fermented tofu of the ingredients of kimchi (red pepper, garlic, ginger, and anchovies) and lactic acid bacteria (Pediococcus acidilactici KL-6) during 24 weeks of fermentation at $20^{\circ}C$. The total polyphenol content of various types of fermented tofu such as the control (tofu with kimchi ingredients mixture), tofu and kimchi ingredients with lactic acid bacteria (TL), and tofu in pre-fermented kimchi ingredients with lactic acid bacteria (TPL) ranged from 156.34 to 165.17 mg/g, showing that TPL was significantly higher in terms of fermentation time (6 weeks) compared to others. The DPPH free radical scavenging activity of TPL (84.11%) was higher than that of the control (76.68%) and TL (78.95%) after 12 weeks fermentation at $20^{\circ}C$. The changes of nitrite scavenging activity and SOD-like activity in the tested tofu showed the same tendency as the DPPH free radical scavenging activity during 14 weeks fermentation TPL showed statistically significant levels of increased antioxidant activity, so we compared the isoflavone and free amino acid content. The isoflavone and free amino acid content of TPL was 2.34 mg/g and 20.81 mg/g after 14 weeks fermentation, respectively.

Free sugar, organic acid, naringin, hesperidin and inorganic elements change of six varities of Cheju citrus fruits; Citrus natsudaidai, C. grandis, C. platymamma., C. sudachi, C. aurantiun and C. unshiu Marc. var. miyagawa by harvest date were investigated. Changes in free sugar of citrus fruits on the different harvesting stages and varieties showed a little differencies. The content of sucrose, glucose and maltose in citrus juice were $44.9{\sim}66.0%,\;15.7{\sim}25.7%\;and\;17.5{\sim}30.1%$, respectively. As the fruits were matured, free sugar was increased, but organic acid was decreased gradually. The major organic acids from the fruit juice were citric acid, malic acid and oxalic acid. Citric acid content exceeded 90%, oxalic acid ranged less than 3.58% and malic acid ranged $0.98{\sim}9.45%$ in total organic acids. Both naringin and hesperidin content showed markedly high in immature fruits, and in rind compare to fruit juice. Naringin and hesperidin content decreased as peel coloration progressed. It was estimated that fully matured fruits would be useful for making processed products, which lead to less turbity and less bitterness.

In order to investigate the composition of dried layer, Porphyra yezoensis cultured at the south coast of Korea, the dried laver was analyzed separately for extractive nitrogen, free and combined amino acids, ATP and related compounds and quaternary ammonium basis using specimens collected monthly from January to April 1998. The extractive nitrogen contents of dried layer extracts were $976\~1,196\;mg/100\;g$ (on dry basis). Twenty-eight to thirty-one kinds of free amino acids were found in the dried laver extracts and their total amounts were 5,648-6,845 mg/100 g (on dry basis). The extracts were rich in free amino acids such as alanine, glutamic acid, taurine, phosphoserine and aspartic acid. Eighteen to twenty-two kinds of combined amino acids from oligopeptides were found in the extracts and their total amounts were $1,194\~1,406\;mg/100\;g$ (on dry basis). The amounts of ATP and related compounds were $111.6\~195.5\;mg/100\;g\;(3.30\~6.00{\mu}mol/g$ on dry basis). Homarine was detected in all samples but glycinebetaine, $\beta$-alaninebetaine and $\gamma$-butyrobetaine disappeared during processing, TMAO was detected in all samples but low TMA was found in some. During processing of dried layer, P. yezoensis, free amino acids, ATP and its related compounds were increased but the other constituents such as combined amino acids, TMAO and TMA and betaines were decreased in all specimens.

For effective utilization of skipjack (Katsuwonus pelamis) cooking juice (SCJ), the SCJ was hydrolyzed with 0.5% neutrase at $50^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr, and the degree of hydrolysis was estimated to be 66.0% at this reaction condition. The hydrolysate was treated with charcoal and filtered under reduced pressure. The extract powder was prepared from the filtrate in a spray-dryer. The major free amino acids of the extract Powder were taurine (526.3 mg/100 g), glutamic acid (375.8 mg/100 g), phenylalanine (315.9 mg/100 g), and alanine (283.6 mg/100 g), and their content accounted for 55.4% of the total free amino acids (2,711.5 mg/100 g). Among the nucleotides and their related compounds, inosine was the major component with 76.29 mole/g. The content of betaine-N, total ceatinine-N, TMAO-N, and TMA-N were 72.2, 51.2, 10.3, and 6.9 mg/100 g, respectively. From the omission test, it was concluded that the major taste compounds of the extract powder were believed to be free amino acids such as glutamic acid and alanine. Organic acids and nucleotides and their related compounds acted an auxiliary role in the taste of the extract powder.

This study was conducted in order to investigate the effect of different drying methods on free amino acids and dipeptide contents, Warner-Bratzler shear force and sensory property of beef jerky products. The drying methods used for this study were sun-drying, shade-drying and hot air-drying methods. The sun-dried beef jerky had the highest free amino acids (277.45 mg/100 g) followed by shade-dried (206.43 mg/100 g) and hot air-dried (111.88 mg/100 g) ones, whereas the amount of dipeptides were the highest in the shade-dried beef jerky followed by sun-dried and hot air-dried ones. The fatty acid composition of the beef jerky was not shown any difference among the beef jerkies with 3 different drying methods. The color $L^*$-value of the beef jerky was lower in the hot-air dried, while the $a^*$-value was higher in the sun-dried one. The shade-dried jerky showed a lower $b^*$-value. The shear force of beef jerky was lower when it was either sun-dried or shade-dried than when it was hot air-dried. Sensory evaluation revealed that hot air-dried beef jerky scored lower than the sun-dried and shade-dried ones (p<0.05). Therefore, using either the sun drying or shade drying methods is more desirable than using the hot air drying method when manufacturing beef jerky for superior physicochemical qualities.

Free amino acids and volatile compounds of fresh garlic and its liqueur were investigated to search elution profile of those components as basic data for development of garlic liqueur. The garlic was soaked in 20% alcohol solution and then sampled every week for 5 weeks. The major free amino acids were L-aspartic acid, L-glutamic acid, L-arginine, L-alanine, L-proline, L-asparagine and L-serine. Neutral amino acids such as L-threonine, L-proline, L-valine and L-leucine, and aromatic amino acids such as tyrosine and phenylalanine were eluted over 80% of those content in fresh garlic after 3 weeks of soaking, but acidic, basic and sulfur containing amino acids were below 80% even after 5 weeks. Sulfide compounds such as diallyl trisulfide, diallyl disulfide, methyl allyl disulfide, 2-vinyl-4H-1,3-dithi in, 3-vinyl-3,4-dihydro-1,2-dithiin, 3,5-diethyl-1,24-trithiolane, isobutyl isothiocyanate and diallyl sulfide were identified as major volatile compounds of fresh garlic by using GC/MS. Among volatile compounds of fresh garlic, allyl alcohol, diallyl disulfide, 3,5-diethyl-1,2,4-trithiolane, diallyl trisulfide and 3,4-dimethoxy furan were eluted to liqueur, but those compounds except 3,5-diethyl-1,2,4-trithiolane were lowered in liqueur during soaking. Furfural, 5-methylfurfural, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, dimethyl pyrazine, furfuryl alcohol, 3-hydroxy-2-bytanone and 2,3-dihydro-3,5-dihydroxy-6-methyl-4H-pyr-an-4-one were generated newly and their content increased in liqueur during soaking.
