An investigation in search of the best oxidizing agent for smoke generators using rice chaff as a combustible carrier was carried out. Smoke rods formulated with active ingredients (AIs) such as inorganic oxidizing agents, glue, and powdered rice chaff, showed constant and high burning rate and high smoking rate on 11 kinds of pesticides. Sodium chlorate was the most suitable oxidizing agent for smoke rod. Even though the sodium chlorate content of the formulation showing the highest smoking rate of AI was variable to pesticides, the smoking rate appeared to increase as the burning rate increased. Active ingredients in smoke generator using rice chaff as a combustible carrier were stable for 60 days when stored at $50^{\circ}C$. An apparatus designed for smoke trapping was useful to collect smoked active ingredients.

In order to study the effect of formulation type on the burning characteristics of smoke generator, fenarimol smoke generators containing the powdered rice chaff as a combustible carrier were prepared by molding the kneaded mixtures into various shapes. Smoke generators containing wood flour as a combustible carrier were also prepared and compared with smoke generators containing rice chaff. All the fenarimol smoke generators moulded into powders, granules, and rods continuously burned out when the sodium chlorate content exceeded 11%. Regardless of their types, the highest smoking rate of fenarimol was observed with more than 13% of sodium chlorate. The smoking rate of active ingredient followed with the increasing order of powder (64.5%) < granule (78.4%) < rod (90.9%). The smoke rod was robust, easy to ignite, and showed the highest smoking rate among the tested formulations. When the mixture of wood flour and anti-flame agent was used as a combustible carrier, the burning rate was so slow that wood flour formulation seemed to be more suitable to a slow-burning fumigant rather than smoke generator.

Smoke rods were prepared for 2 insecticides and 5 fungicides using powdered rice chaff as a combustible carrier, and their burning characteristics were investigated. The distribution of active ingredient was investigated after the application of the granular smoke generator containing fenarimol in the connected vinyl plastic house growing cucumber. The protective effects of fungicide smoke generators were evaluated against cucumber gray mold (Botrytis cinerea) and tomato late blight (Phytophthora infestans), and compared with commercial wettable powders. Smoke rods containing powdered rice chaff showed high smoking rates of AI that were higher than commercial smoke pellets. The deposition of fenarimol on the ground of vinyl plastic house was $26.2{\pm}7.7\;ng/cm^2$ when averaged from 9 sites, and application uniformity was found. Also, the protective effects of 5 fungicidal smoke rods against plant diseases were so similar to the commercial wettable powders with no phytotoxicity that smoke rod formulations containing rice chaff as a combustible carrier could be used as an effective formulation for pesticides.

This study was conducted to observe the effects of dried tobacco leaf smoke on controlling aphids in a laboratory and a greenhouse. Insecticidal activity of tobacco smoke against Aulacorthum solani in an acrylic cage was higher when a burley cultivar, rather a flue-cured cultivar, was used. Mortality of A. solani, Aphis gossypii, and Myzus persicae was 63.9%, 94.4%, and 97.2%, respectively, after 50mg of tobacco smoke on their host plants in an acrylic cage. Mortality of M. persicae after tobacco smoke was used was higher in eggplant than in Chinese cabbage. When 100 g and 200 g of flue-cured tobacco were smoked in a $100m^2$ greenhouse for 2 h, the control values against A. solani were 28.9% and 95.4%, respectively; the control value after 14 h of smoking was more than twice the value after 2 h of smoking. The control value against A. gossypii was more than 80% after tobacco smoke was used in a greenhouse in an organic cucumber farm. Tobacco smoke can be an effective control against aphid pests in greenhouses if an appropriate amount of tobacco and smoking time on the basis of the greenhouse conditions are used.

Changes in proximate composition and protein quality were determined to find out appropriate processing conditions of the seasoned and smoked squid(Neon flying squid, Ommastrephes bartrannii). Moisture and crude protein contents were severely reduced (p<0.05), while increasing of fat and ash contents were not apparent. Seasoning and smoking contributed iii enhancing TBA value. Trypsin inhibitor(Tl) content was not increased severely after those processing steps. TI content checked in the all steps of squid processing was not correlated with the TBA value of squid in the same processing step. An improved digestibility and protein efficiency ratio(PER) were observed in the all products except with steak(mechanically soften product) in vitro enzymatic digestibilities of both raw Neon flying squid meats(mantle and arm) were significantly inferior(p<0.05) to other squid species.

This study was accomplished that analysis of seven polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in smoked or nonsmoked processing foods by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with fluorescence detection. The calibration line was constructed with injected different levels of standard concentration. Limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification(LOQ) showed higher linearity ($r^{2}$=0.998) reasonably, and recovery exhibited 0.033-0.666 $\mu$g/kg, 0.108-2.217 $\mu$g/kg and 69.31-90.14%, respectively. As a result, the samples using smoked tuna as smoked materials contained seven PAHs with different range from 0.256 to 0.486 $\mu$g/kg. The benzo[a]pyrene, indicator of PAHs, was detected to below the LOQ in two samples. Concentrations of benzo[a]pyrene in three samples were below the 2 $\mu$g/kg which is the limit of regulation. Smoked tuna sauces were detected from 0.321 to 0.552 $\mu$g/kg and not detected in drying powders. PAHs of smoked meat products were ranged from 0.720 to 2.027 $\mu$g/kg and are higher than concentration of tuna smoked samples. PAHs were very low in non-smoked foods including mustard, herb, and roasted meats.

This study was conducted to evaluate extraction properties of crude saponin and ginsenosides, and their effects on sensory properties of emulsified pork sausage. Non-dried ginseng root was boiled in 0 (e.g., 100% distilled water), 20, 40, 60, 80 or 100% ethanol, and powdered by a freezing dry method. Weight of dried powder for the 0% ethanol extraction was 20% of initial non-dried ginseng weight, while $20{\sim}80%$ and 100% ethanol extractions resulted in approximately 15 and 10% of their initial weights, respectively. On the other hand, crude saponin content in the dried powder was linearly increased for a higher ethanol content where 100% ethanol extraction resulted in 123.52 mg/g. LC/MS analysis of crude saponin for quantifying ginsenosides showed that Rb1, Rb2 and Rc were significantly (p<0.05) higher levels for both 80 and 100% ethanol extractions. In the case of Rg1 ginsenoside, 60, 80 and 100% ethanol extractions resulted in significantly (p<0.05) higher levels. Emulsified pork sausages containing 0, 1 or 2% ginseng extracts were smoked or non-smoked and their sensory characteristics and preference were evaluated. Smoking process significantly (p<0.05) decreased juiciness and tenderness, but the treatment significantly (p<0.05) improved flavor and consumer preference. It was particularly noticed that a 2% addition of ginseng extract prevented the adverse effects of smoking process on juiciness and tenderness while the 2% addition significantly (p<0.05) improved consumer preference. The current results implied that addition of ginseng extract in emulsified pork sausage could improve sensory quality.

니트로소디메틸아민이 발암성 물질이라는 것이 1954년 Barnes와 Magee에 의해 발견된 이래 이것이 지금까지 학자들에게 관심의 대상이 되고 있는 이유는 발암력이 강하여 극미량으로도 생체내에 암을 유발시킬 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 대부분의 발암성 물질이 신체의 특정기관에 발암작용을 나타내는데 비해 이 물질은 신체의 여러 부위에 암을 유발시킬 수 있다는 점 그리고 이 물질이 햄, 소시지, 베이컨, 알코올음료, 김치 및 어류 가공품 등 어려 가지 식품에 널리 분포되어 있다는 사실 등을 들 수 있다. 니트로소 화합물은 구조로 보아 티트로소아민과 니트로소아미드로 구분되는데 전자는 제 2급 아연이 산화질소 유도체와 반응하여 생성된 니트로소 유도체이과 후자는 오소, 아미드 등이 치환된 니트로소 유도체로서 화학적인 성질이나 생물학적인 작용이 상이하다. 즉 니트로소아민은 식품에서 안정한 화합물인 반면에 대부분의 니트로소아미드는 불안정하다. 지금까지 연구된 바에 의하면 3백 여종의 니트로소 화합물에 대하여 동물실험을 행한 결과 발암성이 90% 이상 인정되었다. 식품 중 니트로소 화합물의 전구물질 중 질산염과 아질산염은 식품의 가공 저장 및 조리과정 중 니트로화의 된 전구물질인데 이는 육가공품의 색소고정, Cl. Botulinum에 의한 식중독 방지 및 풍미의 향상을 위하여 수 세기 동안 식품첨가제를 사용되어 왔으며, 유럽이나 미국 등지에서는 아직도 육가공품에 아질산염의 첨가가 논란의 대상이 되고 있다. 식품 중 니트로소 화합물에 대한 북유럽 식품 3천여 점을 분석한 결과 검출된 니트로소 화함물은 니트로소디메틸아민이 대부분이며 맥주에서 66%로 검출률이 가장 높았고 다음으로 염지육 및 치즈의 순 이었다. 조리한 일본산 해산 식품 중에 니트로소디메틸아민이 최고 313$\mu$g/kg, 캐나다산 해산 건조 식품에서는 67$\mu$g/kg, 홍콩산 염건어에는 1,400 $\mu$g/kg , 훈연어류에는 N-nitrosothiazolidine이 13,700 $\mu$g/kg , 우리 나라 해산 식품 중 니트로소디메틸아민은 건조가오리, 동결건조명태, 건조오징어, 굴비 및 소건새우 등에서 2.8~86.0 $\mu$g/kg 으로서 비교적 높은 양이 검출되었을 뿐 아니라 이들 식품을 조리할 경우 3.6~13배 증가하였다. 또한 김치와 젓갈류 중에서도 니트로소디메틸아민이 검출된다는 연구가 있다. 식품 중 니트로소 화합물의 생성율 억제시키기 위하여 최근 20여년간 연구된 바를 요약하면 아스코르브산과 같은 억제제의 첨가, 가공방법 및 조리방법의 개선이 비교적 바람직한 방법으로 인정되고 있다. 위의 방법을 적용하여 베이컨을 조리한 결과 낮은 온도에서 오랜 시간 가열하는 것이 높은 온도에서 짧은 시간 가열한 것보다 니트로화 반응이 훨씬 낮았고 또 마이크로웨이브로 조리하는 것이 니트로소아민을 최소화 시키는 방법이었다. 염지육은 아스코르브산이나 토코페롤 등의 니트로화 억제제를 첨가할 경우 니트로소 화합물이 현저히 감소 하였는데 이는 산화질소의 소거 능력이 우수하기 때문인 것으로 밝혀졌다. 가공방법의 개선으로서는 가공시 식품을 공기에 노출시킬 경우 특히 직화로 가열된 공기에 노출되면 니트로소아민의 생성이 매우 높은 것으로 보고되어 있는데 그 대표적인 예로 맥아를 직화로 건조할 경우 맥주 중에 니트로소 화합물이 훨씬 높은 양이 검출된다고 보고되어 있다. 대체로 식품의 가공 조리 및 저장 중 니트로소화합물에 대한 메커니즘은 상세히 밝혀져 있으나 생체내에서의 생성이나 억제 등에 대한 연구는 아직도 미흡한 실정이라이 분야에 대한 연구가 절실히 요구된다.
