To develop natural crab-like flavorants from red snow crab Chionoecetes japonicus cooker effluent (RSCCE), the flavor was analyzed during the concentration of RSCCE up to $40^{\circ}Brix$. Using solid phase microextraction (SPME)/gas chromatography (GC)/mass selective detection (MSD), 30 volatile flavor compounds were detected in four RSCCE samples (10, 20, 30, and $40^{\circ}Brix$). These comprised 12 aromatic compounds, 5 N-containing compounds, 2 5-containing compounds, 2 alcohols, 2 aldehydes, and 7 miscellaneous compounds. The amounts of all volatiles except alcohols and aldehydes increased significantly with the concentration (p<0.05). Of the volatiles detected, the most abundant was a dimethyl trisulfide with an odor like onion/cooked cabbage. Of the N-containing compounds (nutty, roasted peanut-like odor), 2-ethyl-5-methylpyrazine was the most abundant, followed by 2,5-dimethylpyrazine and 2-methyl-5-isopropylpyrazine in that order (p<0.05). The N- and S-containing compounds with characteristic odors detected in this experiment are thought to play a positive role in RSCCE during concentration.

Volatile compounds in salt fermented anchovy on the market were analyzed by vacuum simulta neous distillation solvent extraction/gas chromatography/mass spectrometry/olfactometry(V SDE/ GC/MS/O) and aroma extract dilution anlaysis(AEDA). Predominant odorants(Log3FD$\geq$8) in sample were ethyl methylbutanoate(candy like/sweet) and 2 ethyl 3,5 dimethylpyrazine(nutty/baked potato like). Besides these compounds, 6 odorants such as ethyl 3 methylbutanoate(sweet/floral/ candy like), 3 methylbutanal(dark chocolate like), (Z) 4 heptenal(rancid/fish like), (methylthio) propanal(soy sauce /baked potato like), (E,Z) 2,6 nonadienal(melon /cucumber like) and (E,E) 2,4 decadienal(fatty/cooked soybean like) were potent in odor value of salt fermented anchovy. Seven amino acids having high taste value in sample were glutamic acid, aspartic acid(sour and umami taste), lysine, alanine(sweet), histidine, valine, and methionine(bitter).

This study examined how chicken breed affects consumer behavior. The breeds evaluated were a Korean native chicken (KNC) and a commercial broiler (CB). Consumer behavior was measured by evaluating sensory attributes (taste, odor, and texture) and purchase behaviors [satisfaction, purchase intention, and willingness to pay (WTP)]. The sensory evaluation was conducted using healthy Korean consumers (n=100). The chicken was cooked in baeksuk (Korean traditional chicken soup), which is a seasonal summer health food in Korea. The participants evaluated sensory attributes and purchase behaviors between blinded samples of baeksuk (CB) and unblinded samples of baeksuk (KNC). The sensory evaluation involved chicken breasts and legs. The participants considered KNC as having a more umami taste, a chewier and juicer texture, and a less metallic odor than CB. Moreover, when participants were given KNC breed information, they expressed higher satisfaction, purchase intention, and WTP. The results of this study contribute to consumer behavior literature by revealing the effects of breed information on consumer sensory perceptions and purchase behaviors. Furthermore, the findings provide evidence that branding KNC is one way to increase its demand and low market share while contributing to sustainable consumption.

This study investigated the proximate compositions and sensory attributes of fresh and boiled soybean sprouts. The sensory attributes of cooked soybean sprouts (Kongnamulmuchim) were also assessed after boiling and seasoning. Proximate compositions were analyzed from the total sprout, cotyledon and hypocotyl without hair root. Soybean sprouts cultivated with four recommended soybean cultivars (Nokchae bean, Dawon bean, Seonam bean and Pungsannamul bean) in a lab and then used for analysis. Carbohydrate, protein, lipid and ash contents were lower, while moisture was lower, in the cotyledon than in the hypocotyl of fresh soybean sprouts, regardless of the bean type. Each soybean sprout showed different contents of chemical constituents in total sprout, cotyledon, and hypocotyl parts. Sensory attributes such as odor, flavor, and overall acceptability were evaluated. Each panels showed a response on a 9-point rating scale. The acceptability of fresh soybean sprouts was negatively correlated with beany and grassy tastes, but positively correlated with nutty and sweet tastes. The acceptability of boiled soybean sprouts was negatively correlated with beany and grassy flavors, and positively correlated with nutty odor and flavor. In addition, acceptability of cooked soybean sprouts (Kongnamulmuchim) was positively correlated with nutty and sweet flavors. The beany and grassy flavors limited acceptability of fresh soybean sprouts, whereas the prominence of nutty flavor might contribute to acceptance of boiled and cooked soybean sprouts.

To establish optimum drying methods for Korean yam, freeze drying, cool air drying and hot air drying methods were compared by determining some quality criteria. The native color, odor, taste and viscosity of raw yam were preserved by only freeze drying at less than $40^{\circ}C$. The native white color of yam changed to brown and odor and taste of yam decreased largely by cool air drying and hot air drying. Especially cooked and roasted flavor was developed in hot air dried yam. The viscosity of cool and hot air dried yam was about half than that of freeze dried yam. Conclusively freeze drying method was shown optimum to preserve quality properties of yam such as viscosity, color, odor and taste. The physical properties of yam powder such as dispersiveness and solubility was the best in $40{\sim}60{\;}mesh$ particle size.

The changes in physicochemical properties of cooked rice stored in an electric rice cooker at different temperature (63, 66, 69 and $72^{\circ}C$) were investigated. The growth of thermophilic bacteria was gradually increased in all samples with storage time up to 6 hours and increased rapidly afterward. The bacterial growth rate was higher during storage at low temperature than at high temperature, and the bacterial number generally reached the maximum at 18 hours of the storage. The number of bacteria in sample stored at $63^{\circ}C$ was increased to $10^6$ CFU/g after storage for 6 hours. The heat treatment at 6 hours of storage decreased the bacterial number to $10^5 $ CFU/g at 8 hours of storage. Bacterial number was gradually increased with storage time after the first heat treatment. When the sample was reheated after 8 hours of storage, the bacterial number was reduced to the level at which off-odor was not detected after storage for 24 hours. During the storage, moisture content of heat-treated sample was lower than that of sample stored at $63^{\circ}C$ but higher than that of sample stored at $72^{\circ}C$. The L value of heat-treated sample was higher than that of the sample stored at $72^{\circ}C$, but lower than that of the sample stored at $63^{\circ}C$. The b value showed an opposite trend to the L value with regard to the storage temperature. Changes in texture were not remarkable during the storage for the sample heat-treated and stored at low temperature. The occurrence of off-odor and browning was depressed in the heat-treated sample, and the texture and overall eating quality were more acceptable than the samples stored at low temperature.

A strain producing soybean paste flavor was isolated from traditional Korean soybean paste. The isolate was identified as Bacillus subtilis PM3. The neutral fraction representing the traditional soybean paste aroma was obtained from the whole volatile components produced by B. subtilis PM3 in cooked soybean. Each separated peak from the neutral fraction of gas chromatogram was identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) and Kovat's retention index, and the aromas of each peak were investigated by a sniffing test with the exercise panel. The twenty-nine components, including six character impact compounds and twelve components of flavors of Korean soybean paste, were confirmed. Some regions of gas chromatogram represented the soybean paste odor. It has been confirmed that traditional Korean soybean paste can be manufactured with the strain B. subtilis PM3.

In the results of sensory evaluation, beef steak was preferred with the highest overall acceptability while lamb steak was less preferred than pork in flavor and overall acceptability. Sensory tests were conducted to examine whether taste, aroma, or texture is the dominant contributor to people's ability to identify the animal species of meat. The meat samples used were beef, pork, and lamb. Panelists wearing eye masks ate cooked pieces, patties, and heated soups prepared from the meats of these 3 species with and without pinching their noses to regulate the aroma sensation. The results led us to the conclusion that aroma is the most important contributor to the identification of lamb meat, with texture being the 2nd most important contributor. The contribution of taste appeared much smaller than that of aroma and texture. A sensory evaluation of lamb steaks with added herbs or herbal vegetables showed that steak with ginger and rosemary was preferred as having the significantly highest overall acceptability. It was also more preferred au 3 kinds of steak with added garlic and mint, garlic and rosemary, and ginger and mint in appearance, taste and flavor, although there was no significant difference. In difference test, odor was least noticeable in lamb steak when ginger and rosemary were added. Its taste gained the highest preference level, although the difference was not significant. A sensory evaluation that measured the effect of herbs and herbal vegetables on lamb steaks showed that steak with ginger and rosemary had the significantly highest overall acceptability. The second most preferred was beef steak, which had most significantly preferred in taste, and which ranked lower than lamb in flavor with no significant differences. The difference test showed lamb steak with ginger and rosemary scored the least odor and the highest level of palatability.

This study was designed to evaluate the sensory characteristics and consumer preference of dog meat foods as compared with beef ones. The sensory evaluation was conducted by a 10-member trained panel and 109 persons ranging in age from 23 to 59 participated in the consumer research. The results were summarized as follows: 1. The sensory characteristics. 1) In case of the meats boiled in water, it did not show any significant differences between dog and cow's meat in color as well as off-flavor. On the contrary, the other characteristics such as odor, tenderness, juiciness and oiliness of dog meat were evaluated stronger than those of beef. 2) when the meats were cooked as Tang (a kind of soup), the dog meat did not show any significant differences from beef not only in color and off-flavor but also in odor. 2. The consumer preference. 1) It appeared that consumers somewhat preferred beef Tang to dog meat Tang. However, they rated dog meat Tang as the 'neither liked nor disliked' food on an average. 2) Male consumers showed higher preference than female did for the dog meat tang. On the overall, dog meat foods are regarded to have some desirable sensory characteristics and can be acceptable to most people.
