  • A new perilla cultivar, 'Bomnaeyeop 1 ho' was developed by, Kangwon National University in 2008. Its characteristics were investigated three times from 2006 to 2008 under optimal condition of cultivation. 'Bomnaeyeop 1 ho' can be characterized by dark green leaf color and tall plant height. This cultivar has more number of flower cluster and ear per cluster compare to 'Saeyeupsil' control. From result of GC/MS analysis, main compounds consist of perilla ketone, beta-caryophyllene and myristicin in 'Bomnaeyeop 1 ho' cultivar.

  • Myristica fragrans Houtt is commonly known as "nutmeg", it produces two spices: mace and nutmeg. Mace and nutmeg are strongly aromatic in nature and known as jowzabuwa and javetri/bisbasah respectively in the Unani system of medicine. M. fragrans was used as early as 700 BCE by Indian, however, ancient Greeks and Romans were not aware of it. Later Arab traders introduce M. fragrans into Europe followed by Portuguese and Dutch merchants. Mace is very useful medicine in the Unani system of medicine because of its therapeutic uses in salasal al-bawl (urinary incontinence), amrad-i-qalb (cardiac diseases), amrad-i-dimagh (central nervous system), zo'fe bah (sexual debility), amrad al-rahim (uterine diseases), and su-i-hazim (indigestion). The most important constituents of mace essential oil are ${\alpha}-pinene$, sabinene, myrcene, limonene, 1,8-cineole, terpinen-4-ol, myristicin, ${\gamma}-terpinene$, and safrole. The seed and mace extract of nutmeg contain quite high tannins, flavonoids, and terpenoids. Mace has pharmacological functions such as antibacterial and antifungal, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antidiarrhea, antioxidant, chemoprotective, neuropharmacologic, and antidiabetic properties. To explore the correlation between the traditional uses and the same proven by recent researches, a comprehensive review is highlighted in this paper. Further, pharmacological activities which are not reported in classical texts are also discussed.

  • The purpose of this work was to study the effect of roasting temperature on the production of volatile compounds in Chinese-style pork jerky. The pork jerky was roasted by far-infrared grill at $150^{\circ}C$ or $200^{\circ}C$ for 5 min. The analysis of volatile compounds using a Likens-Nickerson apparatus coupled to a gas chromatograph and a mass spectrometer enabled us to identify 21 volatile compounds. The results showed that the volatile compounds coming from pork jerky can be divided into two groups in accordance with their possible origins. The first group of volatile compounds derived from oxidation of lipid included hexanal, ethylbenzene, nonanal, benzaldehyde, 2,4-decadienal, 1-octen-3-ol, octadecanal, and 9-octadecenal. The second group of volatile compounds generated from degradation of natural spices included 1,8-cinene, 4-terpineol, ${\alpha}$-terpineol, e-anethole, methyl-eugenol, panisaldehyde, elemol, eugenol, methyl-isoeugenol and myristicin. Significant differences (p<0.05) were found between 2 different roasted temperatures at levels for all volatile compounds.

  • This study was carried to investigate the effect of illite addition on the growth, bioactive components and volatile compounds of leaf on Saururus chinensis Baill cultivation in greenhouse. Illite addition on Saururus chinensis Baill cultivation resulted no significant effects on the aerial part. However, the root part was highest in 5% illite addition group. Crude oil and ash amount increased as illite additives was increased. Ca of inorganics and free sugars contents were highest in 5% and 20% illite addition, respectively. Hyperoside and isoquercetin of available component on leaf were highest in 5% illite addition group, 4.02mg/g and 4.31mg/g, respectively. The volatile compounds in Saururus chinensis Baill leaf cultured with illite addition amounts were isolated by solid-phase microextraction fiber (polydimethysiloxane $65{\mu}m$) and identifed by gas chromatogtaphy mass spectrometry. As the results, the 22 volatile compounds were identified from in Saururus chinensis Baill leaf and major volatile compounds were the ${\alpha}$-cadinol (18.50%), myristicin (16.46%), methyl-9-methyl-tetradecanoate (10.22%), and ${\gamma}$-muurolene (9.75%). Especially, the content of ${\alpha}$-cadinol was highest in 5% illite addition group and ${\gamma}$-muurolene on overall illite addition group was lower than no addition group.

  • The physical properties of essential oil of nutmeg extracted in different methods (SDE, Solvent, $CO_2$) were investigated and also the components of essential oil were analyzed using G.C. and G.C./ Mass. Solvent extraction yield was 23% and was higher than those of SDE extraction and $CO_2$ extraction. From the analysis result and physical properties of nutmeg oil, it was conformed that the nutmeg used In this experiment was similar to East Indies type. The content of sabinene was 3.6-14.1%, 28.4-48.7% for myristicin, 1.2-2.1% for elemicin, and 3.6-5.6% for safrole. The camphene was identified in SDE extracts but not in $CO_2$ extracts. The volatile components of SDE extracts and solvent extracts contained large amount of monoterpene and terpene alcohol but $CO_2$ extracts aminly contained aromatic compounds.
