To investigate effective constituents of the many taste components in ordinary Korean soy sauce, we analyzed free amino acids, organic acids, free sugars and saline as taste components in ordinary Korean soy sauce, and determined sensory score of the ordinary Korean soy sauce taste with 45 persons of the trained pannels. The relationships between original data transformed with variables and sensory score of the ordinary Korean soy sauce were analyzed by stepwise multiple regression analysis. Eighty five percents of the ordinary Korean soy sauce taste is affected by twenty one kinds (Isoleucine, Leucine, Valine, NaCl, Lactic acid, Alanine, Phenylalanine, Tartaric acid, Sugar(\ulcorner), Proline, Malic acid, Glycine, Tryptophan, Arginine, Glutaric acid, Maltose, Histidine, Glucose, Fructose and Serine) of the taste components by stepwise multiple regression analysis of original data. Eighty one percents of the ordinary Korean soy sance taste is affected by sixteen kinds (Lactic acid, NaCl, Fumaric.Succinic acid, Tyrosine, Tartaric acid, Glycine, Malonic acid, Malic acid, Tryptophan, Glutaric acid, Methionine, Histidine, Cysteine, Maltose, Fructose and (Glutamic acid) of the taste components by stepwise multiple frgression analysis of original data transformed with square root. Eighty five percents of the ordinary Korean soy sauce taste is affected by nineteen kinds (Fumaric.Succinic acid, Lactic acid, Phenylalanine, NaCl, Tyrosine, Sugar(\ulcorner), Tartaric acid, Leucine, Glutaric acid, Methionine, Glycine, Tryptophan, Histidine, Proline, Cysteine, Glutamic acid, Maltose, Threonine and Oxalic acid) of the taste components by stepwise multiple regression analysis of original data transformed with logarithm.

Hedera rhombea (HR) has been used for treatments of hemorrage, chronic catarrh, jaundice, lithisis and convulsion. This study was done to isolate active compounds that have protective effect on liver damage. BuOH and EtOAc fractions of HR recovered serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT), glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT) and ${\gamma}-glutamyltranspeptidase$ (${\gamma}-GTP$) activities in CCl4 treated rats. We isolated 7 phenolic compounds from BuOH and EtOAc fractions, which were identified as 3-caffeoyl quinic acid, 3,4-di-O-caffeoyl quinic acid, 3,5-di-O-caffeoyl quinic acid, 4,5-di-O-caffeoyl quinic acid, caffeic acid, methyl 3,4-di-O-caffeoyl quinic acid and methyl 3,5-di-O-caffeoyl quinic acid by chemical and spectral analysis. These compounds reduced significantly serum GOT and GPT elevated by CCl4 treatment in rats, and 3-caffeoyl quinic acid, 3,5-di-O-caffeoyl quinic acid and caffeic acid also showed mild inhibitory activity against human immunodeficiency virus.

As a part of studies on the development of a Gugisuen(Lycium chinense M.), which is one of the unutilization of waste resources, we investigated the composition of fatty acid and amino acid according as picking period and varieties of Gugisuen. The chemical components of Gugisuen were as follows : 1. Proximate composition of Gugisuen were Cheongyang native had the highest contents of crude lipid, crude protein, total sugar, and the contents of crude protein, total sugar, and reducing sugar was the highest picked on June 20. 2. The contents of $P_2O_5$, $K_2O$, CaO, MgO, Cu, and Mn were higher in Cheongyang native than that of other varieties. And mineral contents of Gugisuen picked on May 10 were the highest. 3. The major fatty acids were linoleic, linolenic acids, and these unsaturated fatty acids composed about 50% of total fatty acids. Fatty acid compositions between each varieties were not significant, and those components were the highest in Gugisuen picked on May 10. 4. Eighteen amino acids were identified from Gugisuen, glutamic acid, the highest content was $10.05\sim10.94%$ and these contents increased in the order to aspartic acid > glycine > alanine > leucine > lysine. The contents of serine, arginine, methionine, cystine-2 and isoleucine were higher in late harvest time and glutamic acid and tryptophane were higher in early harvest time.

An attempt was made to find out the possibility of utilizing water-melon seed as resources of food fats and protein. The water-melon seed contained 40.40% of crude fat and 28.36% of crude protein. The lipid fraction obtained by silicic acid column chromatography was composed of about 97.35% neutral lipid, and the main components of neutral lipid by thin layer chromatography were triglyceride(50.40%), diglyceride(21.84%) and sterol(11.48%). The predominant fatty acids of total and major lipid classes were linoleic acid(55.30-67.85%), palmitic acid(12.07-28.12%) and oleic acid(9.06-16.40%), whereas stearic acid and linolenic acid were detected as small amounts. The salt soluble protein of watermelon seed was highly dispersible in 0.02M sodium phosphate buffer containing about 0.7M $MgSO_4$, and the extractability of seed protein was about 27%. Glutamic acid and arginine were major amino acids, and the essential amino acids such as lysine, threonine, valine, methionine, isoleucine, leucine and phenylalanine were also detected. The electrophoretic analysis showed 6 bands in water-melon seed protein, and the collection rate of the main protein fraction purified by sephadex G-100 and G-200 was 52.4%. The amino acids of the main fraction protein were also mainly composed of glutamic acid and arginine. The molecular weight for the main protein of the water-melon seed was estimated to be 120,000.

Amino acid composition in grain of Korean native rice core collections was evaluated to identify the useful genotypes for quality enhancing rice breeding and value-added food development. Large variations were found in the contents of 16 amino acids among 388 genotypes tested with 14.9% of the minimum coefficient of variation (CV), and the contents of methionine and histidine showed the highest CV and the second high, respectively. The average values of total amino acid, total essential amino acid, lysine and threonine contents of Korean native rice collections were almost similar with those of cultivating japonica rice, Saechucheong. Among 388 native core collections Baekkokna, Daesona and Saducho were identified as high amino acid germplasm in total amino acid, total essential amino acid, lysine and threonine contents. And Seoksanjo and Sodujo were identified as low amino acid collections. Rice collections showing purple apiculus color tended to distribute in lower serine, proline, glutamic acid, glycine, alanine, valine, leucine, phenylalanine, arginine, and total amino acid contents compared with those of yellowish apiculus color collections. The glutinous rice collections showed the tendency of higher contents of serine, glutamic acid, alanine, valine and leucine compared with those of non-glutinous collections.

Stereoselective synthesis of the optically active bicyclo [4.2.0] octanone 5 was accomplished using intramolecular olefin-keteniminium salt[2+2]cycloaddition of the amide 4 as a key step. This important chiral synthon was prepared starting from readily available L-glutamic acid via an efficient 8-step sequence.

After cell removal from fermentation broth the supernatant containing poly (${\gamma}-glutamic acid$) (${\gamma}-PGA$) was concentrated by ultrafiltration in order to reduce the amount of organic solvents such as methanol, ethanol, propanol required for the recover of ${\gamma}-PGA$ with precipitation. The concentration and volume reduction of cell-free solution by ultrafiltration could reduce 3 times the amount of ethanol for the recover of ${\gamma}-PGA$ from cell-free fermentation broth.
