The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Torulaspora delbrueckii and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, as pure fermenters and mixed fermenters (simultaneous and sequential culture), on the production of non-volatiles and volatiles, and on the antioxidant activity in Golden Dried Longan juice and Golden Dried Longan wines. Alanine, arginine, glutamic acid, leucine, proline, and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) were the most prominent amino acids that were found in these wines. The Golden Dried Longan Wine fermented with monocultures of S. cerevisiae and T. delbrueckii produced a total volatile aroma content of 393.21 mg/l and 383.20 mg/l, respectively. Simultaneous culture of the two organisms produced the highest total volatile aroma content, that affected most volatile compounds including isobutanol, ethyl acetate, ethyl decanoate, ethyl heptanoate, ethyl hexanoate, ethyl pentanoate, isoamyl acetate, and isobutyl acetate. Of the four treatments, the sequential culture possessed the highest total phenolic content (5.80 mg gallic acid equivalents (GAE)/ml). In addition, the total phenolic content significantly correlated with the antioxidant activity of the Golden Dried Juice and Golden Dried Longan Wine. These results suggest that co-cultures of the two organisms used in the production of the Golden Dried Longan Wine may improve the intensity and complexity of its aroma.

Present study describes the optimization of disk type sorptive extraction using monolithic material (Mono Trap) for the analysis of volatile aroma compounds from Lantana camara L. in combination with gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Monolithic material sorptive extraction (MMSE) is a new sampling technique using a monolithic hybrid adsorptive disk (O.D. 10 mm, 1 mm thickness) made of high purity silica and activated carbon having a large surface area chemically bonded with octadecyl silane (ODS). The experimental parameters that may influence the MMSE efficiency have been optimized. Linearity, accuracy, precision and detection limits were evaluated to assess the performance of the proposed method. The method was validated with real plant samples of Lantana camara L. Twenty eight compounds including the main representative compounds of ${\alpha}$-curcumene and ${\beta}$-caryophyllene were found in analyzed samples. Results proved that proposed method could be used as a good alternative for the analysis for such volatile aroma compounds in plant samples.

Egg white mix (EWM) added with different ratios of cream $(10{\sim}15%,v/v)$ was fermented with Lactobacillus acidophilus (KCTC 2182) and changes of volatile aroma compounds during fermentation for 21 h were investigated. The amount of volatile aroma compounds between pre-fermented EWM, 15 h-fermented EWM, soft ice cream prepared from fermented EWM, and hard ice cream prepared from soft ice cream was compared. The results were as follows: (1) The amount of ethanol increased gradually until 9 h and increased rapidly to maximum value at 12 h and then decreased rapidly. The amount of acetone at 12 h was slightly higher, but it was not changed markedly during fermentation. Diacetyl was detected at 3 h and increased gradually to maximum value until 15 h and then decreased slightly. The amount of butanol was not changed markedly during fermentation. Acetoin was detected at 3 h and increased rapidly until 15 h and then increased gradually. (2) The amount of acetone, ethanol, diacetyl and butanol of pre-fermented sample, 15 h-fermented sample, soft ice cream and hard ice cream increased in proportion to the amount of cream added to EWM. However, the amount of butanol was relatively constant regardless of added cream ratio. The amount of volatile aroma compounds of soft ice cream was higher than that of other samlples, while that of pre-fermented sample was lower than that of other samples. Diacetyl and acetoin were not detected in pre-fermented sample.

Vinegar was prepared from corn produced in Gangwon province and changes to the major aroma components were investigated for acetic acid fermentation and ripening. The most prevalent volatile component in corn alcohol was determined to be 2-phenylethanol (accounting for 27% of total aroma components); the levels of 2-phenylethanol decreased to 15% after acetic acid fermentation. Principal component analysis of volatile compounds revealed that corn vinegar was distinguishable from corn alcohol. The highest content of total volatile components (50%) was acetic acid, followed by 2-phenylethanol and diethyl succinate. Ethyl phenylacetate and diethyl succinate had the highest odor activity value, and might contribute most profoundly to the aroma of corn vinegar.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of roasting degree of barley on aroma characteristics of boricha (barley tea) using solvent-assisted flavor evaporation-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and gas chromatography-olfactometry. Fifteen volatile compounds including pyrazine, ethylpyrazine, butyrolactone, and guaiacol were considered important volatile compounds, which are generated by roasting barley, because concentrations of those volatiles were significantly increased (p<0.05) as roasting degree of barley was darker. Guaiacol (smoky), furfuryl alcohol (burnt sugar), and furfural (caramel) were detected as aroma-active compounds of boricha with high intensity. Aroma intensity of aroma-active compounds in boricha increased with increase in roasting degree of barley. However, one unknown compound with burnt smell was detected as off-flavor in dark roasted barley. Therefore, it is implied that medium roasting of barley is desirable during boricha manufacturing. Furthermore, boricha manufactured with steamed barley contained more abundant volatile flavor compounds, which may lead to better aroma quality of boricha.

The volatile flavor components of buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench)-green tea were analyzed and identified. To make tea having good flavor and functional property, parched buckwheat (50%) was mixed with green tea (50%). The extraction of volatile flavor compounds of buckwheat-green tea was accomplished by a simultaneous distillation and extraction method using a Likens and Nickerson's extraction apparatus. The concentrated extract was analyzed and identified by gas chromatography and GC-mass spectrometry. The main volatile flavor components of buckwheat-green tea were compounds that originated from parched buckwheat and the green tea. The former were 15 pyrazines having roasted and nutty aroma and methylbutanals and furfural having sweet-aroma. The latter were nerolidol, linalool, indole, ${\beta}-ionone$ and geraniol etc having flower-like odor in green tea.
