This study is an experimental study on the single group pre-post test design for the effects of the aroma inhalation method with roll-on on stress, pain, depression and blood pressure of the elderly. 33 elderly people who met the selection criteria participated among the elderly using the senior citizen clubs located in S city, Gyeonggi-do. The data collection period was from November 14, 2022 to December 19, 2022. A questionnaire consisting of stress, pain, depression, and blood pressure was measured before and after the aroma roll-on inhalation intervention. The components of aroma essential oil included Marjoram, Geranium, Peppermint and Orange sweet that were diluted in Jojoba oil which was the carrier oil. The aroma inhalation method with roll-on was carried out 3 times day for 4 weeks. In the result of this study, the aroma inhalation method with roll-on were statistically significant differences in stress(t=2.63, p=.013), pain(t=2.46, p=.019), and systolic blood pressure(t=3.01, p=.005) of the participants. Therefore, aroma roll-on therapy is expected to be available as a useful nursing intervention method for reducing stress, relieving pain, and managing blood pressure in the elderly using the senior citizen clubs.

This study was conducted to compare the volatile components of lamina(cutter group) and midrib of flue-cured tobacco leaves by two analytical methods, Curie-Point pyrolysis and Purge & Trap headspace technique. The pyrolysis of lamina and midrib part of tobacco leaves was performed at the temperature of $330^{\circ}C$, $650^{\circ}C$, and $920^{\circ}C$ by Curie-Point Pyrolyzer, and 33 compounds were identified in the pyrolyzates by GC/MSD. The composition of the components identified showed a quite difference between lamina and midrib. However, the amount of the pyrolyzed products from the both of lamina and midrib was increased with temperature increase except that of acetic acid, furfural, and nicotine. The content of phenolic compounds including phenol, 4-methyl phenol, and 3-methyl phenol was higher in midrib than in lamina, while that of furan compounds such as 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran, 5-hydroxymethyl furfural, was high in lamina. Interestingly, acetamide, 2-propenamide and 3-acetoxy pyridine were not defected in the pyrolyzates of lamina. By Purge & Trap headspace technique, 28 volatile components were identified in both lamina and midrib. The composition of the identified compounds and their chromatograpic patterns also showed the complete difference between the two. The content of solanone, $\beta$-damascone, $\beta$-damascenone, and megastigmatrienones, key components of tobacco aroma, was much higher in lamina than in midrib. The results indicate that lamina contains much more carbonyl compounds known to enhance the smoke taste of cigarette, whereas midrib takes nitrogenous and phenolic compounds, which are known to cause a deteriorate effect of smoke such as irritation.

Volatile flavor components in five varieties, Bekdo, Chundo, Yumung, Daegubo and Hwangdo, of peach (Prunus persica L.) were extracted by SDE (Simultaneous steam distillation and extraction) method using the mixture of n-pentane and diethylether(1:1, v/v) as an extract solvent. Analysis of the concentrate by capillary gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry led to the identification of 83, 85, 70, 74 and 66 components in Bekdo, Chundo, Yumung, Daegubo and Hwangdo, respectively. Aroma patterns (29 alcohols, 27 ketones, 18 aldehydes, 9 esters, 5 ethers, 3 acids, 6 terpene and derivatives, and 26 miscellaneous) were identified and quantified in five cultivars. Ethyl acetate, hexanal, o-xylene, (E)-2-hexenal, hexanol, (E)-2-hexen-1-ol, benzaldehyde, r-decalactone and r-dodecalactone were the main components in each samples, though there were several differences in composition of volatile components. Beside C$\_$6/ compounds, a series of saturated and unsaturated r- and $\delta$-lactones ranging from chain length C$\_$6/ to C$\_$l2/, with concentration maxima for r-decalactone and r-dodecalactone, were a major class of constituents. Lactones and peroxidation products of unsaturated fatty acid (i.e. C$\_$6/ aldehydes and alcohols) were major constituents of the extract.

Thirty-one units of pure rosemary essential oil (EO) in domestic and foreign distribution markets were collected. Aromatic components of these samples were analyzed and antioxidant activity was measured. As the result, major aromatic components were identified such as ${\alpha}$-pinene, camphene, ${\beta}$-pinene, 1.8-cineole, verbenone and borneol. Major components of rosemary EO were different according to countries. Essential oil from France had good quality. Essential oil cultivated and extracted in South Korea had more content than the collected essential oil in components of ${\alpha}$-pinene and camphene. Only 16% of the total 31 unit samples satisfied the content of 9 ingredients presented by ISO. The quality of EDA was shown as 4.8-96.0%, remarkable differences per specimen. A total of 31 units, only 13% of EO showed more than 60% antioxidant activity. Difference of antioxidant activity did not correspond with specific component. Essential oil from Swiss had high antioxidant activity.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of cigarette papers, flax and wood, on the delivery of mainstream smoke. The main components of cigarette papers were cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, and pectin. Lignin contents, known as precursor of smoke's phenolic compounds, of the flax and wood cigarette papers were 5.8% and 10.6%, respectively. The pyrolysis products of cigarette papers were similar by the profile of total ion chromatogram. But, the area % of some components, such as 1,3-cyclopentanedione, 3,5- dimethyl cyclopentane-1,2-dione, 2-hydroxy-3-methyl-2-cyclopentenone, dihydro-2(3H)-furanone, 3-methyl-2(5H)-fruanone, and 5-methyl-2-furaldehyde delivered through pyrolysis of the flax cigarette paper were higher than that of wood cigarette paper. Otherwise, the area % of some components, such as 2-methyl-cyclopentene-l-one), 2,3-butanedione, 2-cyclopentene-l-one, and 5-hydroxy-2-methyl-furaldehyde, 2-furaldehyde delivered through pyrolvsis of the wood cigarette paper were higher than that of flax cigarette paper. To identify the difference between two cigarette papers, we used the cigarette column filled with the cut cigarette paper instead of the cut tobacco leaf. The amounts of semi-volatile fraction delivered from flax cigarette paper was more than that of wood cigarette paper. But, by using the cut tobacco, there was no big difference of delivery amount between flax and wood cigarette papers. Also, aroma of TPM by collecting from brening cut tobacco wrapped in flax and wood papers showed a different pattern by the electonic nose system. Although the difference between two cigarette papers by using the cut tobacco was smaller than that of cut cigarette paper, this result indicated that the fax and wood had the different effects on the delivery of smoke components as shown in the sensory test results.

Volatile components of fresh apricot (Prunus armeniaca var. ansu Max.) were isolated by simultaneous distillation-extraction at two different pH values of 3.1 and 7.0 and by headspace trapping method. The volatiles were analyzed by GC and GC-MS. A total of 80 components were identified in the three aroma concentrates, including 9 naphthalene derivatives that were not previously reported in apricot. Of components identified in native pH (3.1) sample, the major components were aliphatic $C_6$ aldehydes and alcohols, monoterpene alcohols, benzyl alcohol, ${\beta}-phenylethyl$ alcohol and naphthalene derivatives, while those in neutral pH(7.0) sample and headspace volatiles were aliphatic $C_6$ aldehydes and alcohols. Simultaneous distillation-extraction at pH 3.1 was significantly increased the concentration of n-hexanal, trans-2-hexenal, cis-3-hexen-1-ol, linalool oxide, linalool, ${\alpha}-terpineol$, nerol, geraniol, benzyl alcohol, ${\beta}-phenylethyl$ alcohol and naphthalene derivatives. These results demonstrate that above the components are present in glycosidically bound forms in apricot.

BACKGROUND:The Aromatic rice which is characterized by the flavor of Nurungji when cooked rice, and consumption is increasing recently. The purpose of this study was to investigate the physicochemical characteristics and aroma components of five aromatic rice cultivars according to transplanting time. METHODS AND RESULTS: Quantitative analysis of protein, fat, fatty acid and essential amino acid for five aroma rice cultivars(Hyangmibyeo 2 ho, Aromi, Mihyang, Aranghyangchal, Heughyang)and transplanting time was analyzed by crude protein analyzer, gas chromatography (GC), liquid chromatography (LC) and viscosity analysis was done by using rapid viscosity analyzer (RVA). The content of 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline (2AP) was determined by gas chromatography mass spectrometer. (GC-MS) As a result, the average protein and lipid contents were 6.5% and 2.4%, respectively. The content of essential amino acid showed the highest content at 104.4mg/g. There was no significant change in normal nutrients during the transplanting time. By RVA, cv.Hyangmibyeo 2 ho showed the highest peak and total setback viscosities and lowest breakdown viscosity in early transplantation. The content of 2AP in flavor varieties and transplanting time was quantitatively analyzed by GC-MS. Among the cultivars, Aromi showed the highest 2AP contents at $66.7{\mu}g/100gin$ normal transplanting time. CONCLUSION: cv.Aromi and Hyangmibyeo 2 ho were excellent physicochemical properties and 2AP components contents amongaromatic rice cultivars tested. Theiroptimaltime to transplant was at the beginning of June in the area of Miryang.

This study determined the effect of refrigerated and thermal storage on the volatile profile of commercial aseptic soymilk. Volatile components in commercial aseptic soymilk stored either under refrigerated ($4^{\circ}C$) or thermal ($55^{\circ}C$) conditions for 30 days were periodically analyzed by combined solvent-assisted flavor evaporation-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (SAFE-GC-MS). The concentrations of most of the volatile components, including aldehydes, ketones, alcohols, acids, nitrogen- and sulfur-containing compounds, alkylfurans, furan derivatives and phenolic compounds, were affected to a greater extent by thermal storage compared with refrigerated storage. Profound increases in some volatile compounds with low odor detection thresholds, such as hexanal, octanal, (E)-2-octenal, (E,E)-2,4-decadienal, 1-octen-3-ol, 3-ethyl-2,5-dimethylpyrazine, 2,3-diethyl-5-methylpyrazine, 2-pentylfuran, 4-hydroxy-2,5-dimethyl-3(2H)-furanone, dimethyl trisulfide, guaiacol, 4-vinylguaiacol and 4-vinylphenol, were observed in thermal stored soymilk. The volatile profile changes caused by thermal storage may influence the aroma quality of thermal-stored aseptic soymilk.

Headspace solid phase trapping solvent extraction (HS-SPTE) and GC-MS was applied for the characterization of volatile flavors from fennel, anise seed, star-anise, dill seed, fennel bean, and Ricard aperitif liquor. Tenax was used for HS-SPTE adsorption material. Recoveries, precision, linear dynamic ranges, and the limit of detection in the analytical method were validated. There were some similarities and distinct differences between fennel-like samples. The Korean and the Chinese fennels contained trans-anethole, (+)-limonene, anisealdehyde, methyl chavicol as major components. The volatile aroma components from star anise were characterised by rich trans-anethole, (+)-limonene, methyl chavicol, and anisaldehyde. Additionally, principal component analysis (PCA) has been used for characterizing or classifying eight different fennel-like samples according to origin or other features. A quite different pattern of dill seed was found due to the presence of apiol (dill).
