The objective of this study was to investigate Alaska pollock Theragra chalcogramma roe grade distribution among blocks and its nutritional components by grade. M grade roe was predominantly distributed in blocks labeled as L and M (52.1 and 82.8%, respectively), and S grade roe was mainly found in blocks labeled as S (98.6%). Products labeled as containing KB and KC grade roe contained 77.1 and 65.5% normal roe, respectively. Among the five roe grades (L, M, S, G, and Off), total amino acid content was higher in normal roe than in abnormal roe. The major amino acids found in normal roe were leucine, aspartic acid, and glutamic acid, whereas G and Off grade roe contained leucine and glutamic acid, but not aspartic acid. The calcium, phosphorus, potassium, and iron contents of the five roe grades were within the ranges 13.0-20.0, 314.4-392.0, 124.1-157.7, and 1.7-2.2 mg/100 g, respectively. The five roe grades contained total fatty acid contents of 765-1,252 mg/100 g, with no significant differences among grades. The major fatty acids were 16:0, 18:1n-9, 20:5n-3, and 22:6n-3.

This study was conducted to use fundamental data about functional foods based on pigmented rice varieties-2 types of normal rice, 6 types of black rice-to analyze changes in chemical component activity during germination. The results are summarized as follows: Germination rates of the pigmented rice varieties were the highest at $30^{\circ}C$. There was a tendency for crude protein contents to increase under the influence of germination periods, and the crude protein contents were the highest on the $6^{th}$ day. Crude fat contents were the highest on days 6-8. Nevertheless, the crude fat contents in pigmented rice decreased during the first 2 days, and subsequently, the contents increased steadily. Crude fiber contents were the highest on the $8^{th}$ day. However, there was no meaningful tendency. Sucrose, glucose, and fructose contents in the pigmented rice increased during germination. In normal rice, glucose content increased up to the $8^{th}$ day. It was higher than that of brown rice. However, sucrose and fructose contents showed no meaningful tendency. There was a general tendency for GABA, alanine, glutamic acid, asparagine, aspartic acid, and lysine contents in the pigmented rice to increase under the influence of germination periods. Aspartic acid and asparagine contents were shown to decrease, compared with that in pre-germinated normal rice. In all varieties, lysine was detected from the second germination day onwards, and on the $6^{th}$ day after germination, its contents were 6.24 mg/100 g and 15.58 mg/100 g in normal rice and pigmented rice, respectively.

This study was carried out to investigate the changes on the components of salted eggplant(shikibu) during storage. The contents of total and reducing sugars were decreased during storage, and the tendency of decrease was lower in the salted eggplants of vacuum packing storage than in the salted eggplants of rice bran immersion storage. The contents of acetic and malic acid were higher than other organic acids. The content of acetic acid was increased during storage, but malic acid was decrease. The major amino acid were valine, leucine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid. The content of essential amino acids was increased during storage. Aspartic acid, alanine, cystine and proline were high content of free amino acids. The contents of phosphoserine, taurine, Y-aminoisobutyric acid and hydroxyproline were higher than others. Posphoserine content was decreased during storage, but Y-aminoisobutyric acid was increased to 5 times of fresh eggplant at 20 days of storage.

In order to obtain the basic information for new food product development from pheasant, wild duck(chhungdung), and Ogol fowl, which are called as special poultry, general components,fatty acid amino acid and minerals composition were analyzed. 1). The general compositions were 71.2-74.1% of water, 23.3-26.4% of protein, 1.0-2.4% fat, and 1.1-1.4% of ash in the pheasant, 73.8-76.4% of water, 18.6-19.6% of protein, 2.7-6.8% of fat, and 0.8-1.6% of ash in the wild duck, and 71.4-72.3% of water, 20.8-22.7% of protein, 1.9-6.3% of fat, and 1.0-1.2% of ash in the Ogol fowl, repectively. 2).In the pheasant and wild duck meat, the composition of unsaturated and saturated fatty acid were 60-64%,36-40%, respectively, and olec, palmitic, linolec, and stearic acid were most abundant in this order. But, in Ogol fowl, 72-76% and 24-28% were belong to the unsaturated fatty acid, respectively. 3). Amino acid contents in its order of relative amount were glutamic acid, alanine, aspatic acid, and glycine for the pheasant, glutamic acid, glycine, alanine, and aspatic acid for the wild duck, and lysine, glutamic acid, and aspatic acid for the Ogol fowl, repectively. 4).The mineral composition in the pheasant and wild duck were potassium, phosphorus, sodium, magnesium, and calcium, but in the Ogol fowl, potassium, sodium, magnesium, phosphorus, calcium were the most abundant in this order, repectively.

Rice cultivars of Goami2 (G2), Baegjinju (BJJ), and Sulgaeng (SG) with different amylose contents were developed by mutation breeding via N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU) treatment to Ilpumbyeo (IP), high japonica rice. They were identified by different appearances such as grain size, color, and shape. In this experiment, the compositional and physical qualities of those cultivars were examined. The G2 rice classified as a high-amylose rice cultivar was significantly higher in its non-digestable carbohydrates contents. Linoleic and oleic acid were composed of 70~75% of all fatty acids composition regardless of milled and brown rice, except G2 rice in which palmitic acid was the major fatty acid followed by linoleic acid and oleic acid in order. Major amino acids were aspartic acid, glutamic acid, and hydroxy lysine. It was found that cysteine contents were higher in the cultivars of endosperm mutant rice. The DSC analysis revealed that enthalpy was the highest in BJJ followed by SG, IP, and G2 rice. The lowest enthalpy of G2 might be attributable to the higher amylose content. Ilpumbyeo in its cooked rice form showed the highest in Toyo value and less in hardness, but G2 was vise versa. Results of gelatinization and cooked rice properties suggest that G2 was less suitable for cooked rice, but has a potential for functional ingredients from nutritional point of view. The BJJ and SG could be used for traditional cooking as well as for processed foods.

Bangah (Agastache rugosa O. Kuntze), one of the wild plant grown in Korea and used for deodorizing some of the fish foods because it's strong and unique flavor, was determined for chemical composition in leaf, flower and stem. The highest protein content of 14.7% was found in leaf and lipids was in the range of $5.25{\sim}7.74%$. Total sugar content in leaf and flower were 27.53% and 14.86%, reducing sugar content were 11.80% and 2.75%, respectively. Fifteen fatty acids in bangah were identified and the major fatty acids were linolenic, palmitic, lauric and linoleic acids. Seventeen total amino acids were determined in leaf and flower. Glutamic acid, aspartic acid and leucine were high in each portion. The major free amino acids were histidine, serine, proline and glutamic acid. Most of minerals were high in leaf and flower than those in stem of bangah except for Ca and Fe. Especially K was higher in leaf and flower than stem by 4 times.

Changes in contents of general components of comfrey cultured in Korea were experimented and amino acids were analyzed by thin layer chromatography (T.L.C.) and gas chromatography (G.L.C.). The results obtained were as follows; 1. General components of comfrey such as moisture, fat, protein, carbohydrate, crude fiber and total ash were 13.20, 2.22, 22.30, 37.62, 9.38 and 15.06%. respectively, after 60 days growth. 2. The root of comfrey after 60 days contained 6.03% of alanine, 2.24% valine, 10.77% arginine, 2.96% glycine, 4.08% histidine. 1.54% isoleucine, 0.58% cystein, 1.72% methionine, 7.55% aspartic acid, 7.81% glutamic acid and 4.65% lysine in the gas chromatographic analysis of amino acid composition 3. The crude protein was decreased after 60 days of growth whereas the contents of carbohydrate, crude fiber and total ash were increased. 4. The total amount of amino acids in root was greater than that in leaf of comfrey.
