Changes in the contents of sugar, organic acid, free amino acid and uncleic acid-related compounds of leaf mustard-Kimchi during fermentation at 5~7$^{\circ}C$ were investigated. The leaf mustard-Kimchi was formulated with 4kg leaf mustard, 120g garlic, 80g ginger, 540ml salted anchovies, 1kg green onion, 200g red pepper powder, 200g ground red pepper, 60g whole sesame and 600ml glutinous rice paste. Changes in pH and acidity were relatively slow. Major free sugars were glucose(0.13%) and maltose(0.42%), and residual sugars(0.03-0.04%) were also detected after 32 days of fermentation. Major free amino acids containing more than 26.5mg% were proline, glutamic acid, alanine and histidine. Contents of total free amino acids increased from 244.8 to 397.2mg% by 24 days of fermentation. Of non-volatile organic acid, lactic acid was the most abundant(119.3mg%), and its content increased markedly after 10 days of fermentation. Other organic acids(below 53.1mg%) observed were malic, oxalic and citric acid. Contents of nucleic acid-related compounds were high in the order of hypoxanthine(22.8mg%), IMP(8.3mg%) and GMP(6.9mg%). Hypoxanthine content increased by 10 days(27.3mg%) and decreased thereafter, while the others decreased gradually during the overall period of fermentation.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of various combinations of sugars, amino acids, and fatty acids (oleic/linoleic aicds) on volatile compounds of low-fat sausages (LFSs) to have similar characteristics to those with regular-fat counterparts (RFC). The addition of glucose or fructose alone in LFC increased the concentrations of myristicine, pentadecanal and octadecanal, as compared to RFC. In addition, LFSs containing lysine alone had higher concentration of myristicine, as compared to those with RFC. Without the addition of both oleic and linoleic acids, LFS containing glucose in combination with various amino acids, such as alanine, aspartic acid, cysteine, and lysine, had higher concentration of myristicine, as compared to RFC. Furthermore, myristicine content (ppm) of LFSs was different from those of RFC, regardless of the concentration of lysine in combined with glucose or fructose. LFSs containing oleic and linoleic acids with the combination of glucose/glycine or glucose/alanine had the most similar volatile compounds to those of RFC. These results indicated that volatile compounds isolated from smoked LFSs containing sodium caseinate as a fat replacer and the multiple combinations of sugar, amino acids, and fatty acids had the most similar volatile compounds to those of RFC.

The chemical components of 5 domestic wheats(Kru, Suwon 257, Eunpa, Chokwang and Tapdong), Australian standard white wheat(ASW) and dark northern spring wheat(DNS) were determined in terms of amino acids, sugars and minerals for whole wheat and white wheat flour of 70% milling yield. The protein content of whole Eunpa and Tapdong was approximately 15%, and reduced its content approximately 1% after milling compared to that of whole wheats. The high levels of glutamic acid and proline were observed in domestic wheats. The limiting amino acid of domestic wheat was higher than that of ASW, but lower than that of DNS. Especially, Suwon 257 and Tapdong exhibited the higher limiting amino acid content than other domestic wheats. Glutamic acid and proline content increased, while lysine and threonine was decreased after milling. In general, whole wheat exhibited the higher levels of arabinose and xylose, and the lower level of glucose than flour. The results also showed domestic wheat contained the higher amount of arabinose and xylose than the foreign wheats. Domestic wheat and flour possessed the higher amount of mineral such as P, K, Na and Ca than ASW and DNS, while Al and Si were similar to others.

Changes in amino acids, organic acids and free sugars of soybean sprouts cultivated with extract of Glycyrrhiza glabra(GGE) during growth of 4 days were investigated. GGE was utilized as sprouting water of soybean and adjusted to 100 ppm, 200 ppm, 300 ppm and 400 ppm. Content of total amino acids of soybean sprouts cultivated with GGE was the most abundant, when soybean sprouts were cultivated for 3 days with 100 ppm of PGE. Content of aspartic acid was increased according to culturing days, but glutamic acid was shown to be a opposite trend. Content of total free sugar of soybean sprouts cultivated with GGE was lower than those of control group, and then increased by increasing of culturing days within GGE groups with same concentration. Sucrose of all groups during growth of soybean sprouts was decreased, but the other sugars were increased. Content of total organic acids was increased by increasing of culturing days and was the most abundant in soybean sprouts cultivated with 200 ppm of GGE among same groups. In conclusion, GGE as sprouting water of soybean was effective to increase of contents of amino acids and organic acids in soybean sprouts, indicating that GGE accelerated the quality of soybean sprouts.
