Changes in taste components of Backilju, an traditional alcoholic beverage of Korea, were investigated. Ethanol(17%) was the most abundant, and then isoamylalcohol(23mg%) and methanol(8mg%) were also detected in a small amount in Backilju. Major non-volatile organic acids were lactic and malic acid, followed by citric, fumaric and succinic acid. Arginine, phenylalanine and glutamic acid were major free amino acids and essential amino acid content was 230∼560 mg%, which was 45∼48% of total free amino acids. The major fatty acid of total lipid was palmitic acid(37∼43%). It has been found that the Backilju contained more free amino acids and alcohols than other Korean Yokjus.

As the experimental results of membrane application for the production and recovery of volatile fatty acids, suspended solids concentration, the number of acid producing bacteria and organic acid concentration increased with membrane coupling in the fermenter. The application of membrane for the efficiency increase of solid-liquid separation and fermentation made the number of acid producing bacteria increase in the fermenter, thus acid forming rate showed higher value than that of membrane-free fermenter. Membrane-coupled fermenter was believed to be an effective technology for the improvement of recovery efficiency of volatile fatty acids from organic sludge.

Organic acids and fatty acids of four different Kochujang prepared with different mashing methods were determined by HPLC and GC. Citrate, malate, lactate, succinate, formate, oxalate and acetate were identified. Citrate was found as a major organic acid ($450{\sim}565$ mg%) followed in decreasing order by lactate and malate. Total organic acid content of Meju Kochujang was the highest at the initial fermentation time, while that of koji Kochujang was higher than any other one after 90 days of fermentation. There was a little change of total acid among the treatments. Oleic acid was a major fatty acid ($68.59{\sim}75.38%$) during the fermentation of Kochujang. There was no significant change of fatty acids during the fermentation and among the treatments.

As a preliminary experiment to investigate the effect of ozone sterelization on the ginseng powder, the changes of fatty acid composition and organic acid content and sensory properties in ginseng powder treated with ozone was investigated. Ginseng powder was treated with 0.5 ppm ozone for 24 hours and 48 hours, respectively. With increase in ozone treatment time, the content of crude lipid and increase. Contents of unsaturated fatty acid-linolenic acid, linoleic acid, and oleic acid, etc.-decreased with ozone treatment time, whereas saturated fatty acid or same number-stearic acid-increased odor, bitter taste, roasted taste and sweet taste were thiner with ozone treatment times, but pungent taste was thicker with those treatment. These changes of ordors and tastes of ginseng powder with ozone treatment were predicted by oxydation of lipids, flavor components and saponins.

This study was carried out to investigate the changes of free sugars, non-volatile organic and fatty acids in flue-cured leaf tobacco during aging. The threshed leaf tobacco(B1O and C1L) produced in 2002 crop year was aged for 21 month in warehouse of Oc-Cheon Leaf Tobacco Processing Factory. The leaf tobacco were sampled at three month intervals for analysis of free sugars, non-volatile organic and fatty acids. The major free sugars of flue-cured were glucose and fructose regardless of tobacco grades. After aging period of 21 months, the contents of glucose and fructose showed a tendency to slightly decrease, and there was no appreciable change in the contents of sucrose in B1O and C1L grades. The major compound of non-volatile organic acid and fatty acid were malic, oxalic and citric, linolenic, linoleic and palmitic acid regardless of tobacco grade. After aging period of 21 months, the contents of malic, malonic, oxalic and fumaric acid showed a tendency to slightly decrease, whereas succinic acid was slightly increased, and maleic acid was not changed in B1O and C1L grades. The decreases in fatty acid contents in B1O and C1L grade tobacco loaves after 21 month aging were 16.5% and 9.8%, respectively. The decreases in linolenic acid contents in two grades were the highest, showing 22.1% and 12.0% reduction after 21 month aging.

Field experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of stalk position, compound fertilizer application rate (N-P2O5-K2O : 10-10-20 : 75, 100, 125kg/03), paddy and upland soil and varieties, NC82 &KF103, on nonvolatile organic and higher fatty acids of flue-cured tobacco. Followed by stalk position, malic, citric, malonic and succinic acid contents were significantly increased with higher stalk position, but oleic and linoleic acid contents were decreased with higher stalk position. The higher application rate of compound fertilizer results in increasing citric, malic, malonic and succinic acid contents, but the contents of higher fatty acids were not significantly influenced by fertilizer application rate. The cured leaf cultivated in paddy soil was higher citric and malic acid contents than in upland soil, but the contents of higher fatty acids have no difference between paddy and upland soil. The variety of KF103 was higher citric and linoleic acid contents than that of NC82, but the contents of higher fatty acids have no difference between varieties.

To standardize quality characteristics of commercial doenjang prepared by traditional method, general components, organic acids, amino acids and fatty acid composition were investigated. Moisture, crude protein, crude lipid, titratable acidity (expressed as milliliter of 0.1 N NaOH), acid value and salinity were 54.7%, 13.8%, 8.0%, 14.4mL, 45.7mg/g and 11.8%, respectively. The content of amino type nitrogen was 345.3mg% (w/w) in the range of 207.6 to 443.5mg% being 1.1~2.2-fold for all samples. Average value of Hunter color for L(lightness), a(redness) and b(yellowness) were 37.4, ＋9.7 and ＋21.3, respectively. Browning index value(expressed as optical density at 425 nm) of water-soluble compound(2.58) was above 7.1 times higher than that of the water-insoluble compound(0.38). Total contents of free and total amino acid were 3.81 and 9.72%, respectively, and then the former(1.1~3.7 times) was more different in all samples tested than that of the latter(1.1~2.0 times). Among amino acids, glutamic acid was abundant and its content of free and total amino acids was 0.57 and 1.24%, respectively. Of organic acids, lactic acid was the most abundant being 0.34%(average) and ranged from 0.15 to 0.86%. Linoleic acid(52.17%, as area%) was the highest content of the total fatty acids. Unsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids were 83.89 and 61.189%, respectively. Polyunsaturated fatty acid was markedly different among all samples and ranged from 51.52 to 64.91%.

The compositions of non-volatile organic acids, mineral, fiber and fatty acids of leaf mustard were investigated. Non-volatile organic acid contents were higher in leaf than in leaf stalk. Of non-volatile organic acids assayed malic acid was the most abundant in both leaf (79.1 mg%) and leaf stalk (46.4mg%), followed by L-ascorbic, oxalic, citric and succinic acids. Mineral contents were also higher in leaf than in leaf stalk. Both leaf and leaf stalk contained calcium most, followed by magnesium, sodium, iron, zinc and copper. It has also been found that leaf mustard contains more iron than any other Cruciferous vegetables reported. The major fatty acid of total lipid was $\alpha$-linolenir acid (63.2% in leaf, 55.3% in leaf stalk). The ratios of polyun-saturated fatty acids to saturated fatty acids (P/S ratio) were 4.1 in leaf and 2.9 in leaf stalk. The content of pectic substances, in terms of alcohol-insoluble solid, of leaf was 9.4% which was 1.4-fold higher than that of leaf stalk. Of pectic substances, hot soluble pectins (HWSP) were present most and followed by sodium hexametaphosphate soluble (HXSP) and HCI soluble pectins (HSP). Total dietary fiber content of mustard leaf was 2.68% and in general, higher content of total dietary fiber than leaf had. Neutral detergent fiber content was higher than acid detergent fiber, and cellulose was higher than hemicellulose by 2.1-fold in leaf stalk.

As a series of studies on improving quality of seasoned-dried Pacific saury, fatty acid compositions and taste compounds of the seasoned-dried saury treated with liquid smoke (T2 product) were examined during storage, comparing with control (C, seasoning only). In the both samples, the major fatty acids were 22:6n-3, 16:0, 22: In-11I, 20: In-11, 18: In-9, 14:0, 20:5 n-3 and 16:1n-7. The contents of saturated fatty acids in C and T2 increased with increasing storage period, while those of polyunsaturated fatty acids decreased. After drying, the contents of 7 non-volatile organic acids contents detected in this study decreased, and the others of non-volatile organic acids, except for malic and citric acids, in both C and T2 decreased with storage period. The contents of nucleotides and their related compounds in both C and T2 decreased with increasing storage period. The content of total free amino acids in raw sample was 556.96 mg/100g and increased up to 895.77 mg/l00 g and 958.40 mg/100g in C and T2, respectively, after drying, and total contents of free amino acids in both C and T2 somewhat decreased after 60 days of storage.

This study was conducted June 2011 at Gamo Lagoon, after tsunami of March 2011, to estimate food sources and utilization. The results show that the tsunami affected the sediment properties by changing the physical environmental alterations. The fatty acids of the gut content of Nuttallia olivacea mostly comprised the same organic matter found in the sediment. Fatty acids in the tissues showed mainly diatoms, bacteria, and dinoflagellates. That is, most of the food sources (i.e., diatoms, bacteria, dinoflagellates, macroalgae, and terrestrial organic matter) probably pass through the digestive system unharmed; however, terrestrial organic matter, which is refractory to biochemical degradation, indicated a different assimilation trend between the gut content and the tissue. This result suggests that input of labile organic matter from the sediment may control selective metabolism in N. olivacea. From these results, although the physical environment of sediment characteristics by tsunami changed, the food utilization of N. olivacea suggested a better assimilation of selected components from the gut content, irrespective of physical alteration.
