A method to detect 37 volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in surface water was described based on headspace solid-phase micro extraction and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. VOCs in water were vaporized for 30 min at 40 $^{\circ}C$ in a headspace vial and adsorbed on 85 ${\mu}m$ carboxen-polydimethylsiloxane. Under the established condition, the lowest quantification limit was 4.1-96 ng/L by using 4.0 mL water sample, and the relative standard deviation was less than 15% at concentrations of 0.05 and 0.50 ${\mu}g/L$. The detection limits meet lower concentration than 1/10 of the water quality criteria for VOCs established by the US EPA or Germany. The LOQ is a sensitivity which the monitoring for the establishing water quality criteria requires. When the proposed method was used to analyze the target compounds in sixteen surface water samples and total 16 VOCs were detected in surface water samples collected from Gum-River. Maximum concentrations of VOCs detected were not exceeded the EPA or Germany guidelines in any of the samples.

In this study, VOCs of black gel pen inks was screening to identify individual characteristic of gel pen inks. Detected VOCs was total 20 species(isopropylalcohol, 2-methyl-2-propanol, 2-butanone, hydrazinecarbothioamide, benzeneacetic acid (ethyl ester), benzeneacetic acid, dimethoxymethy-silane, 2,2-dimethoxybutane, tetrahydro-2-methyl-furan, 1,2-ethanediol, silicic acid (tetramethyl ester), 1,2-propanediol, propyleneglycol, 3-ethyl-3-hexanol, 1,1-dipropoxy-propane, 2-butoxy-ethanol, 2,2'-oxybisethanol, 1-butyl-benzene, 2-pyrrolidinone, 2-(2-butoxyethoxy)-ethanol). We detected 2,2-dimethoxybutane (3.02~47% ratio) and tetrahydro-2-methyl-furan (1.19~52.19% ratio), 1,2-ethanediol (52.83~95.84% ratio). In case of manufacturer, manufactured ink was able to discriminate between Japan and Korea by distinct characteristics (Japan: 1,2-ethanediol, 52.83~95.84%, Korea: 1,2-propanediol, 76.17~93.51%). The results of this study indicated that distinct characteristic about manufacturers and brands could make a classifring tool of inks for identification of between gel pen inks.

This study compared the quality characteristics, including aroma, of M. longissimus from five Korean native black barrows(64 kg, KNP) and five modem genotype barrows($Landrace{\times}Yorkshire{\times}Duroc$, 114 kg, MGP), during vacuum packaged-chilling. The samples were vacuum packaged, stored at $2{\pm}0.3^{\circ}C$ for 12 days, and then subjected to quality measurement. The KNP had higher fat content than did MGP(p<0.05), but KNP contained lower C14:0, C18:3 and C20:5 concentrations than did MGP(p<0.05). The KNP showed lower pH values(p<0.05) and water-holding capacities than did MGP, and were redder in color than MGP during storage. The TBARS increased more quickly in KNP than in MGP samples during storage. In texture, KNP showed firmer muscle tone than did MGP during storage(p<0.05). Various aroma compounds including 3-methyl-l-butanol, 2-ethyl hexanol and m-xylene were detected with SPME-GC/MS after 12 days of storage, and aroma patterns of KNP and MGP, obtained with an electronic nose, differed during storage.

Although instant coffee is less palatable than freshly brewed coffee, it is widely consumed primarily due to its convenience. Frequently, instant coffee is consumed in the form of a coffee-mix. It contains coffee creamer or dried skim milk, and sugar in addition to soluble coffee. The aim of this study was to investigate the volatile aroma compounds (VACs) of instant black coffee mixed with coffee creamer or dried skim milk by Gas Chromatography-Headspace-Solid Phase Microextraction (GC-HS-SPME) and sensory evaluation. A total of 16 different coffee samples including instant black coffee and coffee mixes with coffee creamer or dried skim milk, were chosen for this study. The coffee samples contained several common VACs such as pyrazine, pyridine, and pyrrole. Sensory evaluation indicated that the flavor intensity of coffee mix was less pronounced than that of instant black coffee alone. Coffee creamer and skim milk had little distinctive aroma per se; however, they significantly contributed to the flavor profile of coffee mixes, suggesting that coffee creamer and skim milk acted as flavor modifiers in coffee mix.

Lipoxygenase is the enzyme responsible for the formation of $C_6$-alcohols and $C_6$-aldehydes ($C_6$-compounds), which are well blown contributors to various types of 'green odor' In green tea. Changes in lipoxygenase activity and volatile compounds of green tea leaves were monitored daily during early growing season. The enzyme activity was spectrophotometrically measured using linoleic acid as a substrate. The volatile compounds were extracted through Solid Phase Micro-Extraction, and were subjected to GC and GC-MS analyses. Results showed that lipoxygenase activity and levels of $C_6$-compounds concomitantly increased or decreased during the early growing season, probably caused by the fluctuation in the daily temperature; increase in temperature led to the increase in enzyme activities and $C_6$-compound levels, whereas leaves plucked too early had low volatile compound levels. In this study, optimum plucking time of tea leaves for the production of high quality green tea with a wellbalanced aroma was determined.

일반적으로 phthalate esters의 전처리방법에는 액액추출법(liquid-liquid extraction), 고상추출법(Solid-phase Extraction, SPE), 고상미세추출법(Solid-phase micro extraction, SPME) 등의 분석방법이 있다. 그 중에서 본 연구에서는 SPE를 이용하여 간편하고 정확성이 높으며, 적은 양의 유기용제를 사용하여 전처리함으로써 2차적인 환경오염을 줄일 수 있다는 점에서 다른 전처리 방법보다 유용하다고 할 수 있다. 검출감도 측면에서 phthalate esters의 경우는 구조적으로 안정적인 편이나 페놀류의 경우 hydroxy group 때문에 GC/MS 분석시 유도체화 과정이 필수적인데 이번 연구에서 사용한 BSTFA/TMCS는 비교적 쉽고 빠르게 유도체 화할 수 있다는 이점이 있다. 더 많은 연구가 필요하겠지만 앞서서의 결과에서도 알 수 있듯이 전반적으로 검출한계가 0.05$\sim$0.5 $\mu$g/L 정도로 높고, 4-nonyl phenol을 제외하고 80% 이상의 양호한 회수율을 나타낸 것으로 미루어 보아 phthalate esters, phenols의 효율적인 동시분석이 가능함을 알 수 있다.

Fermented seasoning pastes were prepared by Aspergillus oryzae and Bacillus subtilis using three edible insects, Tenebrio molitor larvae (TMP), Gryllus bimaculatus (GBP), and Bombyx mori pupa (SPP), with soybean (SBP) as a negative control. Volatile compounds were extracted by the headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) method and confirmed by gas chromatograph-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). In total, 121 volatiles from four samples were identified and sub-grouped as 11 esters, 18 alcohols, 23 aldehydes, 5 acids, 10 pyrazines, 2 pyridines, 7 aromatic hydrocarbons, 10 ketones, 19 alkanes, 9 amides, 4 furans and 3 miscellaneous. TMP, GBP, SPP and SBP had 48, 54, 36, and 55 volatile compounds, respectively. Overall, 2,6-dimethylpyrazine and trimethylpyrazine were found by a high proportion in all samples. Tetramethylpyrazine, a main flavor of doenjang, a Korean fermented seasoning soybean paste, was identified as one of the major compounds in TMP, SPP, and SBP. SBP had benzaldehyde, hexanal, n-pentanal, and aldehydes and SPP with pyrazines.

The current study was designed to optimize solid phase microextraction (SPME)-GC-MS conditions for extraction and analysis of volatile components for Hanwoo beef and to establish a tentative database of flavor components. Samples were taken from Hanwoo longissimus muscle (30 mon old steer, $1^+B$ carcass grade) at 24 h postmortem. Results indicated that the optimum adsorption time for $75{\mu}m$ CAR/PDMS fiber was 60 min at $60^{\circ}C$. Thermal cleaning at $250^{\circ}C$ for 60 min was the best practice for decontamination of the fiber. A short analysis program with a sharp oven temperature ramp resulted in a better resolution and higher number of measurable volatile components. With these conditions, 96 volatile compounds were identified with little variation including 22 aldehydes, 8 ketones, 31 hydrocarbons, 12 alcohols, 8 nitrogen- and sulfurcontaining compounds, 5 pyrazines and 10 furans. A noticeable observation was the high number of hydrocarbons, aldehydes, ketones, alcohols and 2-alkylfurans which were generated from lipid decomposition especially the oxidation and degradation of unsaturated and saturate fatty acids. This implies that these compounds can be candidates for flavor specification of highly marbled beef such as Hanwoo flavor.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the change of volatile compounds in Dakgalbi cooked by charcoal broiling. Fresh deboned and marinated chicken meat was cooked by electric-pan frying or charcoal broiling and subsequently irradiated with a dose of 0, 10 and 20 kGy. Volatile components from Dakgalbi were analyzed using solid phase micro-extraction gas chromatography - mass spectrometry (SPME GC-MS) and identified through the comparison of mass spectrum database. SPME GC-MS analysis shows that a total of 32 volatiles were identified. Among them, aldehydes such as hexanal and octanal, which have relevance to off-flavors such as green, paint, metallic, bean and rancid were detected in Dakgalbi cooked by both methods. However, the contents were less detected in the Dakgalbi cooked by charcoal broiling than in the Dakgalbi cooked by electric-pan frying. Gamma-irradiation caused the change in the formation of these aldehydes in cooked Dakgalbi. The irradiation significantly increased the contents of hexanal and octanal in Dakgalbi cooked by electric-pan frying and a similar increase was found in Dakgalbi cooked by charcoal broiling. However, the contents of the off-flavors were much less in the latter. The results suggest that charcoal broiling might be more effective than electric-pan frying for the reduction of the contents of off-flavor such as hexanal and octanal increased in Dakgalbi by gamma-irradiation.
