Physicochemical properties of Gugija-sugar leaching were investigated by adding sugar ratio on Gugija (Lycii fructus) raw fruit. Gugija were prepared by parboiling ($40{\sim}50$ sec at $85^{\circ}C$) and unparboiling. Gugija-sugar leaching were leached after preserving (5 months at $5^{\circ}C$) Gugija-sugar mixture (20, 40, 60, 80 and 100% sugar based on raw Gugija). The yield increased with UPRGSL-4 (Gugija-sugar leaching adding 80% sugar) having the highest yield at 77.5%; in contrast, total acidity decreased with increasing ratio of sugar. The main organic acids of raw Gugija are tartaric acid (0.63%), citric acid (0.57%), malic acid (0.54%) and succinic acid (0.3%). Citric acid and succinic acid decreased with increasing ratio of sugar but malic acid and tartaric acid increased on Gugija-sugar leaching. Polyphenolics and betaine content of unparboiling Gugija-sugar leaching decreased as increase ratio of sugar but in term of used Gugija amount, betaine content of each Gugija-sugar leaching was equal to raw Gugija. Also, parboiling Gugija-sugar leaching decreased quickly with increasing ratio of sugar, especially PRGSL-4 and PRGSL-5 (parboiling Gugija-80 and 100% sugar leaching, respectively) was not determined. 15 types of free amino acids were detected in raw Gugija; the total content was 601.6 mg/100 g and the highest amino acid among them was serine, 218.1 mg/100 g. In PRGSL-4 prepared by parboiling, 9 kinds of free amino acid were detected and the total content was 383.3 mg/100g. Also, in UPRGSL-4 (unparboiling Gugija-80% sugar leaching), all 17 kinds were detected and its total content was 705.7 mg/100 g.

Changes of free sugar on Gugija-sugar leaching were investigated by adding sugar on Gugija (Lycii fructus) raw fruit. Gugija were prepared by parboiling ($40{\sim}50$ sec at hot water of $85^{\circ}C$) and unparboiling. Gugija-sugar leaching were leached after preserving (5 and 10 months at $5^{\circ}C$) Gugija-sugar mixture (ratio of raw Gugija and sugar, 1:0.2, 1:0.4, 1:0.6, 1:0.8, and 1:1/w:w). Soluble starch content of Gugija-sugar leaching increased with increasing ratio of sugar without reference to parboiling treatment, having the highest content, 2.5% at UPRGSL-4 (unparboiling Gugija:sugar, 1:0.8 leaching). Maltose content increased with increasing ratio of sugar in PRGSL, being the highest at 12.66% in PRGSL-5 (parboiling Gugija:sugar, 1:1 leaching) at 10 months leaching periods. Most of the sucrose went out of existence with increasing leaching periods; content was 4.22% on PRGSL-5 and 1.36% on UPRGSL-5. Content of glucose and fructose increased with increasing ratio of sugar; glucose content was 7.86% on PRGSL-4 and 26.22% on UPRGSL-5, at 10 months leaching periods. Fructose content was 18.46% on PRGSL-5 and 22.51% on UPRGSL-4 at 10 months leaching periods. Contents of sorbitol and glycerol increased with increasing ratios of sugar.
