Volatile aroma concentrates of four oyster mushrooms cultivated in Korea were obtained by the simultaneous distillation-extraction method. The volatile components were identified by the combined capillary gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and compared with the of retention data on GC of those authentic compounds. About 54 volatile compounds were identified in each of the four edible oyster mushrooms. The main compounds in Pleurotus ostreatus ASI 201 were 1-octen-3-ol, 3-octanone, 3-octanol, in Pleurotus sajor-caju, 1-octen-3-ol, 3-octanone, 1,5-octadien-3-one, 3-octanol, in Pleurotus florida-ostreatus-ostreatus, 1-octen-3-ol, n-hexanol, 3-octanone, 3-octanol, phenol, and in Pleurotus ostreatus (Ae-Neutari), 1-octen-3-ol, n-pentanal, n-hexanol, n-pentanol, 3-octanone, 3-octanol, 1,5-octadien-3-one, respectively. The mushrooms worked were rich in an alcohols and carbonyl compounds containing $C_8$ compounds. The peak area ratio of $C_8$ compounds in aroma concentrates were 56.60% in Pleurotus ostreatus ASI 201, 72.46% in Pleurotus sajor-caju, 54.84% in Pleurotus florida-ostreatus-ostreatus and 35.85% in Pleurotus ostreatus (Ae-Neutari ), respectively.

Sea lettuce(Monostrima nitidum) were treated with several alkali agents on condition with water blanching at 9$0^{\circ}C$ for 10 min., and followed by drying and powdering, thus, the power samples treated and the not treated were then allowed to be stored at $25^{\circ}C$, dark place for 5 months. The sea lettuce powder samples were evaluated for green color intensity and volatile flavor at a month intervals. The green intensity of the samples were measured by using Hunter-lab colorimeter, therefore, the decoloration of greenness were seen in both of the samples treated and the not treated, but there were slight inhibitory effects on decoloration in the treated with alkali agents, especially in the treated with KHCO$_3$.The volatile flavor of the samples were collected by simultaneous distillation-extraction, and then the 31 flavor compounds were separated on HP-5 capillary column(25m$\times$0.25mm i.d) and identified by using GC-MS. From these results, it was presumed that the characteristic impact flavor compounds were $\beta$-cyclocitral, $\beta$-cyclohomocitral, ionene, $\alpha$-ionone and $\beta$-ionone. The total content of the characteristic impact flavor compounds decreased in the samples treated with alkali agents more alkali agents more than in the not treated, but lee decrease was observed in the treated with KHCO$_3$.

Volatile compounds of porcine liver were collected by simultaneous steam distillation and extraction and steam distillation under reduced pressure. Volatiles were analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) and GC-mass spectrometry. Key aroma compounds of off-flavor in porcine liver were characterized using GC-olfactometry technique. Concentrates of cooked porcine liver had odor of a typical liver, fishy, and metallic off-flavor. Aroma concentrates showed over 90 peaks, of which 69 compounds were positively and/or tentatively identified. 1-Octen-3-one, 1-hexanol, (E)-2-nonenal, (Z)-4-decenal, (E,E)-2,4-heptadienal and (E,E)-2,4-decadienal were newly identified in this study. These compounds seem to be produced from unsaturated fatty acids of porcine liver by oxidation. 1-Octen-3-one (metallic), 1-hexanol (metallic) and (E,E)-2,4-heptadienal(fishy) have been implicated in fishy and metallic off-flavor in cooked porcine liver.

The essential oils from whole plant, flower, seed, stem and leaves of domestic chamomile were extracted by simultaneous distillation-extraction and analyzed by GC/ MSD/IRD and retention index matching. The experimental results revealed the presence of over 31 volatile components. Major components were chamazulene, bisabolol, bisabolol oxide A, B. The contents of these major components which possess the pharmacological effects were found to be flower(75.1%), seed(76.6%), stem and leaves(10.09%), whole plant (48.9%), respectively, in domestic chamoile oil, whereas found to be flower(49.2%) in foreign chamomile oil. These results suggest that the usefulness of domestic chamomile is promising because of high contents of these four major components which posses pharmacological effects.

The chemical compositions of the essential oil of Valeriana officinalis roots obtained by steam distillation method were analyzed by GC-MS. The 16 constituents were identified in the V. officinalis oil, and the most abundant compounds were patchouli alcohol (18.69%) and ${\beta}$-gurjunene (15.26%). Acaricidal effects of the V. officinalis oil were evaluated against Tyrophagus putrescentiae, Haemaphysalis longicornis larva and H. longicornis nymph by contact bioassay. The $LD_{50}$ values against T. putrescentiae, H. longicornis larva and H. longicornis nymph were 28.01, 178.26 and $207.98{\mu}g/cm^2$, respectively. Agar disc diffusion bioassay showed the antibacterial activity of the V. officinalis oil against foodborne pathogens, especially L. monocytogenes. These results showed that the essential oil of V. officinalis roots derived from USA has a potential for development as acaricide and antimicrobial.

Multi-agent systems can be utilized in various real-world cooperative environments such as battlefield engagements and unmanned transport vehicles. In the context of battlefield engagements, where dense reward design faces challenges due to limited domain knowledge, it is crucial to consider situations that are learned through explicit sparse rewards. This paper explores the collaborative potential among allied agents in a battlefield scenario. Utilizing the Multi-Robot Warehouse Environment(RWARE) as a sparse reward environment, we define analogous problems and establish evaluation criteria. Constructing a learning environment with the QMIX algorithm from the reinforcement learning library Ray RLlib, we enhance the Agent Network of QMIX and integrate Random Network Distillation(RND). This enables the extraction of patterns and temporal features from partial observations of agents, confirming the potential for improving the acquisition of sparse reward experiences through intrinsic rewards.

When extracting semi-volatile components of herbal medicines using hot water vapor, some substances may react with water vapor or oxygen, and some volatile substances may be lost, when using an organic solvent extraction method has the disadvantage that it may contain a non-volatile material and residual organic solvent. In addition, it is inefficient to separate semi-volatile substances from herbal medicines into each single component and conduct biological activity research for each component to determine the effective ingredient, and some components may be lost in the separation process. In this study, semi-volatile substances evaporated under two pressure-reduced conditions in Chinese herbal medicines such as Cnidii Rhizoma, Aucklandiae Radix and Amomum Fructus were separated by cooling with liquid nitrogen. Those were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) to identify the components, and this method may be used to study biological activities at the cellular level. The substances separated under reduced pressure, essential oil obtained by simultaneous distillation extraction (SDE) method and substances by using solid phase micro-extraction (SPME) from Cnidii Rhizoma, Aucklandiae Radix and Amomum Fructus were analyzed by GC-MS. In the case of Cnidii Rhizoma and Aucklandiae Radix, there were some differences among the essential oil components obtained by SDE and those identified by low temperature capture (CT) and SPME method, these were believed to be produced by some volatiles reacting with water or oxygen at the boiling point temperature of water.

Aroma components of Ookjook tea made from Polygonatum involucratum Maxim roots were collected and identified. The extraction of aroma compounds was accomplished by a simultaneous distillation and extraction method using a Likens and Nickerson's extraction apparatus. The concentrated extract was analyzed and identified by GC and GC-MS. The most abundant aroma components of this tea were furanic compounds including 2-furfural, 2-methyl-dihydro-3(2H)-furanone, 2-acetylfuran and 5-methylfurfural. These compounds seem to be originated from the thermal degradation of carbohydrates during the roasting process. Alkylpyrazines and acids including propionic acid increased slightly during the period of manufacturing process of Ookjook tea. Furanic compounds originated from the thermal degradation of carbohydrates and alkypyrazines from aminocarbonyl reaction seemed to be the important contributors to the aroma of the Ookjook tea.
