The unknown amount of thiolane retained on different soil matrix was characterized by employing an uniquely designed glass vessel, which was forced to purge the prepared slurry sample so that thiolane may diffuse into Tenax/charcoal tube. Thiolane can be recovered ranging from approximately 89 % at 1 ppm regardless of soil types, which was not consequently affected by potential biodegradation during sample preparation. For 5 ppm. thiolane is more recoverable up to 92 % for sand, whereas it was poorly recovered as low as 85 % for clay. It strongly suggests that controls should be considered when soil types varied in a concerned area. The technique was eventually capable of determination of thiolane for the samples taken from the site which led to be taken into consideration for proper site remediation.

This study was conducted to delineate plume occurred in hazardous waste disposal site. At first, CPT (Cone Penetrometer Test) rig and HydroPunch were used to collect depth-discrete groundwater samples in concerned area. However, it was not capable of sampling the groundwater due to the cone refusal where the residual clay are layered at nominal depth through the aquifer. Alternatively, a number of temporary wells were installed after each of locations was penetrated using a modified steel cone functioned by CPT rig. The samples taken from those of wells were characterized by GCMS and GCFID, which revealed that sulfolane and thiolane were mainly presented. Subsequent analyses performed for the samples taken from permanent nest piezometers consistently demonstrated that possible plume boundary can be presented in the study area where contaminants were found as low as detection limit or levels of not-detectable.

Changes in the odor components of Sergia Lucens during fermentation were studied by simultaneous distillation and extraction method. Forty seven components were identified by GC and GC-MS. Major cooked odor components of raw material were alkyl pyrazines and thialdine. Alkyl pyrazines, furfuryl alcohol, isoamyl alcohol and sulfide compounds, such as dimethylsulfide and dimethyltrisulfide increased during the period of fermentation. On the other hand, thialdine content decreased as the period of fermentation was extended. Sensory evaluation of cooked Sergia Lucens odor was carried out by GC-sniff analysis. The odors of GC effluents at the sniffing port were sniffed in order to find out the key compound of cooked Sergia Lucens odor components. The results of the GC-sniff analysis indicated that 2,5-dimethylpyrazine, 2,6-dimethylpyrazine and 2,3-dimethylpyrazine had dried or roast shrimp-like odor and thialdin had dried small sardine-like odor. The result showed that pyrazines and thialdine could play an important role in the formation of cooked Sergia Lucens odor.

Volatile flavor components, produced during the young (P-1), immature (P-2), mature (P-3) and old (P-4) growth stages, of shiitake mushrooms (Lentinus edodes), were extracted by simultaneous steam distillation and extraction (SDE), using a mixture of n-pentane and diethyl ether (1:1, v/v) as the extraction solvent. Analyses of the concentrates, by capillary gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS), led to the identification of 129, 129, 111 and 120 components in the P-1, 2, 3 and 4 stages, respectively. The major volatile compounds were l-octen-3-o1, 3-octanol, 3-octanone and 4-octen-3-one. Ethanol and ethyl acetate were also detected in large amounts. The characteristic volatile compounds found in shiitake mushrooms, such as dimethyl disulfide, dimethyl trisulfide and 1, 2, 4-thiolane, were at low concentrations in all samples. The amount of l-octen-3-o1 decreased as growth progressed, but concentrations of 3-octanone increased. The amount of 4-octen-3-ol decreased from P-1 to P-3, but was at a high concentrations in P-4. The concentration of 3-octanol gradually increased and reached its highest concentration in P-3, but decreased in P-4. The C8-compounds comprised 70.91, 64.09, 64.29 and 60.01 % in the P-1, 2, 3 and 4 stages, respectively, so decreased gradually with growth. The S-compounds were found in the highest concentrations in P-3.
