The essential oil was extracted by steam distillation from the aerial part of erect bur-marigold (Bidens tripartita L.), one of the noxious weed in paddy field. The composition of the essential oil was analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The fragrance of the essential oil was green, herbal, oily, spicy. There were 42 constituents in the essential oil：17 hydrocarbons, 6 alcohols, 6 acetates, 5 N-containing compounds, 3 ethers, 3 ketones, 1 lactone and 1 S-containing compound. Major constituents were ${\alpha}$-phellandrene (22.50%), ${\alpha}$-pinene (22.21%), 2,4-dimethyl (2,5-dimethylphenyl) methyl ester benzoic acid (15.11%), limonene (10.66%), ${\beta}$-pinene (35.43%), and ${\beta}$-cubebene (5.27%). The $IC_{50}$ value in MTT assay using HaCaT keratinocyte cell line was 0.018%. However, attachment of patch with 0.1% of the erect bur-marigold essential oil for 24 hr did not show any skin toxicity. Overall results of this study suggest that the essential oil of erect bur-marigold could be used as a source for the development of perfumery industrial products.

Changes in the flavor of muskmelons stored at different temperatures were examined to judge aroma patterns during storage. A mass-spectrometry based electric nose was used to distinguish the subtle differences in the muskmelon's volatile compounds. The data were used for a discriminant function analysis (DFA), and then the partial least square algorithm was used for a quantitative analysis. Volatile components in the muskmelons increased with storage, and the first discriminant function score (DF1: $r^2$=99.88%, F=3072.5) moved from a positive position to a negative position as the storage period increased. The proper point of maturity was anticipated as the $28^{th}$ day at 0$^{\circ}C$, $21^{st}C$ day at 4 and 7$^{\circ}C$, and $14^{th}$ day at 10$^{\circ}C$. Also, using the DF1 score we could predict the general tendency (vitamin C, stem moisture, acidity) of the muskmelons. The electronic nose revealed that the major volatile compounds that changed during storage of the melons were ethyl ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, nonanol, dodecanoic acid, hexadecanoic acid and tricosane. The amount of volatile compounds detected increased during storage.

In this study, the degree of rancidity and trans fatty acids formation was assessed in Soybean oil(SBO), Corn germ oil (CGO), Canola oil(CNO) and Olive oil(OLO). All samples treated under various conditions were analyzed in order to determine their physicochemical characteristics(RI: Refractive index, Tocopherol, AV: Acid Value, IV: Iodine Value) and total trans fatty acid contents via GC. The results were as follows: The AV of corn germ oil was the highest (0.49$\pm$0.01 and 0.72$\pm$0.04 respectively) among the 4 kinds of oils at $170{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ and $210{\pm}2^{\circ}C$. The IV of olive oil was the lowest(88.7$\pm$0.6 and 89.2$\pm$0.5) among the 4 kinds of oils at $170{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ and $210{\pm}2^{\circ}C$. The trans fatty acid contents of the soybean oil, corn germ oil, canola oil and olive oil, respectively(in g/100) increased from 0.41, 0.60, 0.44 and 0.11 prior to heating to 0.84, 1.36, 0.94 and 0.81 after 7 hours. Catechin and BHT reduced trans fatty acid formation by 0.5-15.5% under all treatment conditions. In particular, Catechin exerted a more profound inhibitory effect on trans fatty acids formation than that did BHT.

Phenolic acids of white ginseng were extracted and fractionated into free, esterified, and insoluble-bound forms. The contents of individual phenolic acids in different forms were quantified by gas liquid chromatography. Nine different phenolic acids as free, esterified, and insoluble-bound forms were identified in white ginseng. Total phenolic compounds in different forms of extracts was 0.309% (free form), 0.230% (esterified form) and 0.138% (insoluble-bound form), respectively. Total phenolic acid contents in free, esterified and insoluble-bound form were 889.3, 356.8, 1,176.9 mg/100g fraction, respectively. Ferulic acid was the predominant phenolic acid, representing 63.7% and 50.9% of total phenolic acids in esterified fom and insoluble-bound form, respectively. While caffeic acid was only detected in esterified form. At 10 mg/ml insoluble-bound form quenched 95.9% ABTS free radicals generated from 2,2-azobis(2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride (AAPH). Also, electron donating ability and lipid peroxidation inhibitory activity of insoluble-bound fom were higher than other fraction. All phenolic acid fractions scavenged over 80% of hydroxyl radical at 10 mg/ml.

Anchovy oil was extracted using supercritical carbon dioxide ($SCO_2$) and organic solvents. Extraction was carried out at temperature range from 40 to $60^{\circ}C$, and pressure range from 15 to 25 MPa. The flow rate of $CO_2$ (22 $gmin^{-1}$) was constant entire the extraction period of 1.5 h. The fatty acid composition of anchovy oil was analyzed by gas chromatography (GC). The main fatty acids of anchovy oil were myristic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, palmitoleic acid, EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). In addition, the oil obtained by $SCO_2$ extraction contained a higher percentage of polyunsaturated fatty acids especially EPA and DHA comparing to the organic solvent extracted oil. The oxidative stability of oils extracted from Anchovy by $SCO_2$ extraction was compared to those extracted by organic solvents. Results showed that the storage periods of oils obtained by $SCO_2$ extraction were longer than those of organic solvents extraction.

Lipids in Bush Clover (Lespedza bicolor) seed were extracted with the mix ture of chloro-form-methanol (2 : 1, v/v) and then fractionated into neutral lipids, glycolipids and phospholipids by silicic acid column chromatography. Components and fatty acid composition of each fraction were determined by thin layer and gas chromatographies. The results were summarized as follows. In Bush Clover seed, the contents of neutral lipids, glycolipids and phospholipids were 71.75%, 23.26% and 4.99% respectively. Triglycerides(61.90%) and free fatty acids(22.04%) were the major components among the neutral lipids. Esterified sterols, free sterols, diglycerides and monoglycerides were the minor components. The major components of glycolipids were monogalactosyl diglycerides(38.19%) the others were esterified steryl glycosides, cerebrosides and digalactosyl diglycerides. The major components of the phospholipids were phosphatidyl cholines(36.46%), phosphatidyl inositols(21.52%) and phosphatidyl ethanolamines(17.29%). The major fatty acid of total lipid, neutral lipids and glycolipids were linoleic acid, linolenic acid, oleic acid and palmitic acid. On the other hand, predominate fatty acid of phospholipids were linoleic acid, palmitic acid, linolenic acid and stearic acid.

Physicochemical properties of the green tea component enriched mushroom (Flammulina velutipes) were investigated. The yield of mushroom was highest with green tea powder untreated sample and the yield was decreased by the addition of green tea powder. However, hardness was increased by the addition of green tea powder. Analysis of catechins and caffeine in mushrooms showed that catechins were not transferred into mushrooms, whereas caffeine content was increased. The content of total polyphenol in mushroom was not affected by the addition of green tea powder and crude catechins. Analyses of aroma patterns using the electronic nose based on GC with SAW sensor showed that new peaks occurred from 3 to 6 sec in green tea added mushroom. This study showed that functional components and quality of mushroom were possibly improved by incorporating green tea powder in growth medium.

Effects of roasting on physical (weight, volume, density and color) and chemical properties (total phenol, caffeine, chlorogenic acid and antioxidant properties) of three Arabica coffee beans (Brazil Bourbon, Indonesia Mandheling and Kenya Tatu) were investigated. A steady weight loss, volume increase, and bean density decrease were observed during the roasting process. The $L^*$, $a^*$, and $b^*$ values tended to decrease as the roasting temperature and time increased. Caffeine level was approximately 0.73% in green beans, and increased to 40-67% for darker roasts. Green beans contained the highest chlorogenic acid content, which decreased as the roasting temperature and time increased. The light- and medium-roasted coffee showed the highest total phenolol contents. The antioxidant activities were measured using DPPH and ABTS. The light-roasted coffee beans showed the highest antioxidant activities, and an approximately 36-51% loss in antioxidant activity was observed after further roasting. The flavor patterns of roasted coffee beans were analyzed using an electronic nose system based on gas chromatography. This analysis demonstrated that an electronic nose system can be applied to identify the green bean variety and the degree of roasting.

The chemical composition and content of essential oils extracted by ASTM standard D 889-93 method from the leaves of thirty introduced varieties in Perilla frutescens Britton var. japonica $H_{ARA}$ was investigated and compared. The oil was analysed by gas chromatography. More than forty compounds were found and thirteen compounds were identified. The major three constituents representing about $56{\sim}88%$ of total oil were shown caryophyllene and 2 unknown oils in 25 varieties. The chemical composition and content had much differences in each of varieties. This result seemed to be corresponding to introduce that varieties had diverse essential oils.

In order to elucidate the action mechanism of prochloraz and triadimefon, the mycelia of the Valsa ceratosperma were treated with the compounds in vitro. Analysis by GLC of the sterol extract from Valsa ceratosperma mycelia revealed one major peak and two minor peaks. Their relative retention time(RRT) relative to chloresterol were 1.29, 1.48 and 1.82, The compounds with RRT 1.29 and RRT 1.82 were identified as ergosterol and 24-methylenedihydrolanosterol by GC/MS, respectively. Five ppm of prochloraz and triadimefon applied to mycelia caused decrease in ergosterol content, whereas increase in 24-methylenedihydrolanoserol content in mycelia. The longer treatment time and the higher concentrations of the chemicals resulted in the greater decrease in ergosterol and the greater increase in 24-methylenedihydrolanosterol. Based on the analysis, it is considered that the two chemicals inhibit the ergosterol biosynthesis in Valsa ceratosperma by blocking C-14 demethylation as found previously in other fungi arid yeasts.
