Kimchi power made by kimchi fermentation and freeze-drying was added to Western foods of sauce, soup, pizza, cracker and bread. Flavor qualities of the processed fusionfoods were evaluated by analyzing volatile compounds and sensory evaluation. The optimum condition of kimchi fermented for the best flavor quality of freeze-drying was the ranges of pH4.0${\sim}$pH4.7 and acidity 0.5${\sim}$0.8. The number of volatile compounds identified from extracts of the freeze-dried kimchi powder was 24, which contained 7 alcohols, 5 esters, 5 acids, 3 sulfur-containing compounds, 2 aldehydes, 1 oxygen-containing and 1 other. Among the identified compounds, the most abundant compound was eugenol(39.40%), followed as the order of dodecanoic acid(4.91%), acetic acid(1.70%), methyl 2-propenyl disulfide(1.52%), hexanal(1.51%) and 2-pentylfuran(1.18%). These compounds affected the flavor quality of kimchi powder.

The striped fruit fly, Bactrocera scutellata, infests pumpkin flowers. Males are attracted to raspberry ketone (RK) and feed the attractant. This study was conducted to determine essential techniques to develop a male annihilation technique (MAT) of this insect pest. Effective attractants were screened in laboratory and field conditions. Both males and females were responsive to methyl eugenol (ME) in laboratory, though no flies were attracted to ME traps in field conditions. In contrast, cuelure (CL), which is a chemical derivative of RK, was effective to attract males of B. scutellata in both laboratory and field conditions. However, RK was equivalent or superior to CL when they were formulated in a form of wax dispenser. A pyrethroid insecticide along with the attractant was effective to attract and kill B. scutellata. Funnel trap was useful for MAT to confirm and count dead flies. These results indicate that MAT against B. scutellata consists of RK and bifenthrin in a wax type formulation, which is installed to a funnel type of trap. These essential factors would be useful to develop MAT applicable to control B. scutellata in fields.

Population of fruit flies was monitored by using methyl eugenol trap during 2010-2011 in Yezin, Myanmar. Population numbers were analyzed with meteorological factors including rainfall, temperature, relative humidity and duration of sunshine. Samples of mango, guava, and jujube fruits were collected from orchards. The fruits were kept in containers so that the species of flies infesting the fruit could be identified when the adult insects emerged and to assess damage caused by fruit flies. Regression analyses indicated that populations of fruit flies were observed to be positively correlative with rainfall, minimum temperature and relative humidity, and negatively correlative with the duration of sunshine. Eleven species of fruit flies, Bactrocera arecae, B. carambolae, B. correcta, B. dorsalis, B. kandiensis, B. latilineola, B. malaysiensis, B. neocognata, B. raiensis, B. verbascifoliae, and Carpomya vesuvina, were identified. B. correcta and B. dorsalis were the most abundant and accounted for 29.3% and 28.6% of total emerged adults in the different fruit samples. The highest percentage of fruit damage was observed on guava ($59{\pm}15.4$), followed by mango ($35.5{\pm}12.1$) while the lowest was recorded on jujube ($18.5{\pm}7.9$).

Asarum sieboldii has been used for treatment of fever, pain, common cold, and chronic sinusitis in Korea. In this study, we performed quantification analysis of seven major constituents including aristolochic acid I, aristolochic acid II, ${\alpha}$-asarone, ${\beta}$-asarone, elemicin, methyl eugenol, and safrole in the 70% ethanol extract of Asarum sieboldii and its solvent fractions, n-hexane, ethylacetate, n-butanol, and water ones using a ultra-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometer(UPLC-ESI-MS) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometer(GC-MS). Regression equations of seven components were acquired with $r^2$ values >0.99. The values of limit of detection(LOD) and quantification(LOQ) were 0.1-3.9 ng/mL and 0.3-11.7 mg/mL, respectively. The amount of the seven compounds in Asarum sieboldii were not detected -143.66 mg/g. The established LC-MS/MS and GC-MS methods will be helpful to improve quality control of Asarum sieboldii.

Gumiganghwal-tang has been used for the treatment of common cold for a long-time. We developed an accurate and sensitive high performance liquid chromatography-diode array detection (HPLC-DAD) and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry method for the simultaneous determination of ferulic acid, baicalin, bergapten, methyl eugenol, glycyrrhizin, oxypeucedanin, wogonin, nodakenin, atractylenolide III, imperatorin, and atractylenolide I in Gumiganghwal-tang samples. The analytes were separated on a Shiseido C18 column ($5{\mu}m$, $4.6mm\;I.D.{\times}250mm$) with gradient elution with acetonitrile and 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid. Eleven compounds were quantitatively determined by HPLC-DAD and identified by LC-MS data. We also validated this method. The calibration curves of all the compounds showed good linear regression. The limits of detection and the limits of quantification ranged from 0.04 to 0.63 and from 0.12 to $1.92{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. The relative standard deviation values of intra- and inter-days of this method represented less than 2.9%. The recoveries were found to be in the range of 90.06 - 107.66%. The developed method has been successfully applied to the analysis of Gumiganghwaltang samples. The established HPLC method could be used to quality control of Gumiganghwal-tang.

Twenty-five compounds were isolated from the methanolic extract of Geum japonicum (Rosaceae), and their structures were identified as eleven triterpenoids [ursolic acid 3-acetate (2), cecropiacic acid 3-methyl ester (3), pomolic acid 3-acetate (5), ursonic acid (6), ursolic acid (7), pomolic acid (8), corosolic acid (9), euscaphic acid (11), arjunic acid (16), tormentic acid (18), 23-hydroxytormentic acid (21)], two saponins [rosamultin (22) and kaji-ichigoside $F_1$ (23)], two megastigmanes [blumenol A (14) and (+)-dehydrovomifoliol (15)], three flavonoids [apigenin (13), isoquercitrin (17) and tiliroside (24)], two ellagic acid derivatives [3,3'-di-O-methylellagic acid (12) and ducheside B (25)] and five others [eugenol (1), emodin (4), vanillic acid (10), gallic aldehyde (19), salidroside (20)]. The chemical structures of these compounds were identified on the basis of spectroscopic methods and comparison with literature values. This is the first report of the eleven compounds, 2~6, 10, 15, 16, 20, 23, and 25 from the genus Geum, as well as the first report of apigenin (13) and 3,3'-di-O-methylellagic acid (12) from G. japonicum. The antioxidant properties of 22 isolates (1~11, 14, 16~25) were evaluated by the intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) radical scavenging using 2',7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DCF-DA) assay. Among them, isoquercitrin (17) showed significant scavenging activity, and gallic aldehyde (19) and ducheside B (25) showed weak scavenging activity.

The effects of ingredients added (first cutting ingredients vs. both first and second cutting ingredients), and cooking method (smoking vs. boiling) on product quality and volatile compounds were examined for low-fat and regular-fat sausages. Regular-fat sausages had slightly higher pH values (6.2-6.3) than those (6.1-6.2) of low-fat counterparts. However, the pH values of the sausages were not significantly affected by the different ingredients and cooking methods (p>0.05). Approximately 30 volatile compounds were identified from these comminuted sausages. The headspace concentrations of 4-methyl-1-[1-methylethyl]-3-cyclohexen-1-ol, ${\alpha}$- terpenyl acetate, eugenol, trans-caryophyllene and myristicine were lower in low-fat and regular-fat sausages containing the first cutting ingredients alone, than in those with both cutting ingredients. The volatile compounds of the smoked comminuted sausages were mostly phenols and hetero-compounds, and a lot of volatile compounds were shown before the retention time (RT) of 30 min. However, not many volatile compounds were detected in the boiled sausages prior to the RT of 30 min.

The insecticidal activity of the constituents of cinnamon essential oils and structurally related compounds against both the nymphs and adults of the citrus flatid planthopper Metcalfa pruinosa was examined using a direct-contact application. The toxicity of the cinnamon oil constituents and 21 (E)-cinnamaldehyde related compounds regarding the nymphs of M. pruinosa was evaluated using a leaf-dipping bioassay. Based on 24 h $LC_{50}$ values, hydro-cinnamic acid ($1.55mg/cm^2$) is the most toxic compound, followed by geranic acid ($1.59mg/cm^2$). The $LC_{50}$ values of 11 of the compounds including cinnamaldehyde are between $1.60mg/cm^2$ and $4.94mg/cm^2$. Low toxicities and no toxicity were observed with the other 15 ($5.24mg/cm^2$ to $13.47mg/cm^2$) and two compounds, respectively. Also, the toxicities of the cinnamon oil constituents and 21 cinnamaldehyde related compounds regarding the M. pruinosa adults were evaluated using a direct-spray method. The toxicity of eugenol (10.81 mg) is the most toxic compound for the adults of M. pruinosa, followed by geranic acid (30.68 mg). The $LC_{50}$ values of nine of the compounds including cinnamaldehyde are between 59.16 mg and 96.70 mg. Low toxicities and no toxicity were observed with the other 15 (105.44 mg to 255.76 mg) and three compounds, respectively. The spray formulations that comprise cinnamon bark and cinnamon green leaf oils resulted in 82.3% and 82.9% mortalities, respectively, toward the M. pruinosa adults in a ginseng field. Global efforts to reduce the level of highly toxic synthetic insecticides in agricultural environments justify further studies on cinnamon oils to ascertain whether the corresponding active principles can act as insecticides, when they are applied as a direct spray with contact action, for the control of M. pruinosa populations.

Volatile flavor components in three varieties (shingo(niitaka), mansamgil (okusankichi) and chuwhang pears) of Pear (Pyrus pyrifolia N.) were extracted for 24 hours with pentane-diethylether (1 : 1, v/v) using the LLEP (liquid-liquid extraction & perforation). Neutral fraction was separated from the extract and then analyzed by GC-FID and GC/MS equipped with a fused silica capillary column (Carbowax 20M, HP). Individual components were identified by mass spectrometry and their retention indices. The totals of 52, 47 and 22 volatiles were identified in shingo, mansamgil and chuwhang pears, respectively. Ethyl acetate, propyl acetate, hexanal, 1-hexanol, ethyl butanoate, ethyl-3-hydroxy butanoate, ethyl-2-hydroxy propanoate were the main components in each samples, though there were several differeces in composition of volatile compounds. Total contents of volatile components isolated in shingo, mansamgil and chuwhang pears were 6.972, 2.776 and 2.653 mg/kg of pears.
