Characteristic chemical compositions of jujube wine using different preparation methods including fermentation were investigated. Fermentation for jujube wine started using whole fruit (JW1), seed-removed fruit (JW2) and whole fruit heated at $100^{\circ}C$ for 2 h and then extracted (JW3). The free amino acids and flavors were analyzed quantitatively by HPLC and GC-MS. A total of 18 amino acids were identified in all samples. The amount of total free amino acids was detected from 141-210 ppm (JW1), 147-342 ppm (JW2), and 336-362 ppm (JW3). Large amounts of proline, aspartate, glutamate, arginine and alanine were detected in jujube wine. Thirteen kinds of volatile compounds including six alcoholic compounds (ethyl alcohol, iso-butyl alcohol, n-butyl alcohol, iso-amyl alcohol, n-amyl alcohol, and phenethyl alcohol), four ester (ethyl acetate, hexyl acetate, ethyl caprylate, and phenethyl acetate) and three aldehydes (diethylacetal, furfural, and benzaldehyde) were detected. Ethyl alcohol (30.50-33.95% peak area), benzaldehyde (2.55-15.97% ratio), furfural (0.07-15.28% ratio), iso-amyl alcohol (1.04-14.73% ratio), and phenethyl acetal (0.78-9.28% ratio) were abundant in jujube wine.

This study was focussed to compare the concentrations of the volatile oil components of flue-cured tobacco grown by two types of nitrogen-ammonium and nitrate-under vinyl mulching. The results were summarized as follows; 1. The content of nicotine was lower and reducing sugars degraded from starch was higher content in $NO_3-N$ application than $NH_4-N$. 2. The concentrations of furfural, benzyl alcohol, and phenethyl alcohol in the cured leaf were not different between $NH_4-N$ and $NO_3-N$ treatments. 3. Some of the important flavour components-linalool, solanone, damascenone, neophytadiene, and oxyolanone + megastigmatriene-one - had much higher concentrations in $NO_3-N$ than $NH_4-N$ application. 4. In conclusion, nitrate nitrogen was more favorable to decrease nicotine and to increase some important flavour components of cured leaf than ammonium nitrogen.

In our ongoing search for bioactive compounds originating from the endemic species in Korea, we found that the hexane and EtOAc fractions of the MeOH extract from the root of Dystaenia takeshimana (Nakai) Kitagawa (Umbelliferae) showed cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and 5- lipoxygenase (5-LOX) dual inhibitory activity by assessing their effects on the production of prostaglandin $D_2\;(PGD_2)$ and leukotriene $C_4\;(LTC_4)$ in mouse bone marrow-derived mast cells. By activity-guided fractionation, five coumarins, viz. psoralen (2), xanthotoxin (3), scopoletin (4), umbelliferone (5), and (+)-marmesin (6), together with ${\beta}-sitosterol$ (1), were isolated from the hexane fraction, and two phenethyl alcohol derivatives, viz. 2-methoxy-2-(4'-hydroxyphenyl)ethanol (7) and 2-hydroxy-2-(4'-hydroxyphenyl)ethanol (8), three flavonoids, viz. apigenin (9), luteolin (10), and cynaroside (11), as well as daucosterol (12) were isolated from the EtOAc fraction using silica gel column chromatography. In addition, D-mannitol (13) was isolated from the BuOH fraction by recrystallization. Two of the coumarins, scopoletin (4) and (+)- marmesin (6), the two phenethyl alcohol derivatives (7, 8) and the three flavonoids (9-11) were isolated for the first time from this plant. Among the compounds isolated from this plant, the five coumarins as well as the three flavonoids showed COX-2/5-LOX dual inhibitory activity. These results suggest that the anti-inflammatory activity of D. takeshimana might in part occur via the inhibition of the generation of eicosanoids.

Traditional static headspace and headspace solid-phase microextraction(SPME) techniques were compared for their effectiveness in the extraction of volatile flavor compounds from the headspace of persimmon vinegar. The adsorption condition of SPME fiber for equilibrated headspace vapor was selected as $80^{\circ}C$ and 20 min. Total FID response for volatiles of persimmon vinegar was exactly higher such as total peak area $18.18{\times}10^6$ in SPMEGC technique than total peak area $1.35{\times}10^6$ in static headspace-GC. The major volatiles in persimmon vinegar were acetic acid, ethyl acetate, 3-hydroxy-2-butanone, ethanol, phenethyl alcohol. From static headspace-GC technique, 3 acids, 3 aldehydes, 5 alcohols, 9 esters and 1 ketone were identified. From SPME-GC technique, total 34 compounds including 6 acids, 7 aldehydes, 6 alcohols, 9 esters, 2 hydrocarbones, 1 ketone, 3 others were detected. Also the ratio for benzaldehyde, phenethylacetate and phenethylalcohol were higher in SPME-GC.

In this study, the volatile compounds in 24 commercial Korean black raspberry wines were isolated by headspace solid-phase microextraction and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). A total of 43 volatile components, including 15 esters, 12 terpenes, 7 alcohols, 4 acids, 3 ketones, and 2 aldehydes, were identified. Ethyl esters and alcohols such as ethyl acetate, ethyl octanoate, isoamyl alcohol, and phenethyl alcohol were the most represented groups among the quantified volatiles. In particular, various terpenes such as DL-limonene, linalool, alpha-terpineol, and myrtenol were identified. The differences in volatile components among the 24 black raspberry wines and possible sample grouping were examined by applying principal component analyses to the GC-MS data sets. The first and second principal components explained 43.9% of the total variation across the samples. No apparent sample groupings were observed according to manufacturing locations. The samples KU, BH, SR, and MO showed higher overall levels in the concentrations of terpenes originating from black raspberry, while other samples such as BB and HB, showed higher in ethyl ester and alcohol contents produced by yeast fermentation, respectively.

To investigate the effect of Acetobacter on qualities of potato vinegars, potato vinegars were produced through acetic acid fermentation using 3 Acetobacters such as Acetobacter sp. PA97, Acetobacter sp. PA96 and Acetobacter pasterianus JK 99. There were little difference in pH(2.90∼3.09) and total acidities(5.30∼5.60%) of 3 potato vinegars. However potato vinegar(II) fermented by Acetobacter sp. PA96 showed a little difference in color values with other potato vinegars. Except acetic acid in each potato vinegars, the contents of citric acid, oxalic acid, succinic acid were high in potato vinegar(I), malic acid in potato vinegar(II) and lactic acid in potato vinegar(III). The contents of glutamic acid alanine, histidine and proline were high in all potato vinegars. The major volatile components in 3 potato vinegars were acetic acid, isoamyl acetate, isobutyl acetate, 3-methyl-1-butanol, 3-methyl-butanoic acid and phenethyl alcohol. Also composition ratio of volatile components was a little difference among 3 potato vinegars.

The solubilization sites of some phenyl alkanols such as phenol, benzyl alcohol, phenethyl alcohol, 3-phenyl-1-propanol solubilized in 0.2 M aqueous sodium dodecylsulfate micelle solution was studied by two dimensional heteronuclear correlation spectroscopy (2D C-H COSY). The results show more quantitative and clear solubilization sites in the SDS micelle than previous results using $^1H$-NMR spectrum integration. We found that most of the phenyl alkanols penetrate into the core of SDS micelle, and the insertion depth was 6.5∼7.0 methylene units from ${\alpha}$-methylene.
