Volatile components of green tea were isolated by purge and trap headspace method and were analyzed by GC and GC/MSD. And ten headspace volatiles were compared with volatiles isolated by simultaneous distillation-extraction(SDE) method. A total of 99 components were identified in the green tea volatile components, from which 88 components were identified in the headspace volatiles, contained 20 alcohols, 30 hydrocarbons, 21 aldehydes, 10 ketones, 2 acids and 5 miscellaneous components. The major components were low boiling components, such as methyl butanal(3.1%), 1-penten-3-ol(5.48%), 2-penten-1-ol(2.89%), hexanal(5.77%), heptanal(1.90%), and ere 2,4-eptadienal(4.28%), linalool(2.27%), 2,6-dimethyl cyclohexanol(2.57%), $\alpha$-pinene(1.52%), caryophyllene(1.70%), and carbonyl compounds, such as $\alpha$-ionone(2.62%), $\beta$-ionone(2.98%), $\beta$-cyclocitral(2.0%). On the other hand SDE volatiles, from which 64 components were identified, contained 16 alcohols, 16 ydrocarbons, 15 aldehydes, 10 ketones, 3 acids and 4 miscellaneous components.

The aim of this study was to investigate the change of volatile aroma compounds in kimchi during fermentation, before and after drying process. Also, the encapsulation effect of cyclodextrin on volatiles during the drying process was examined. GC-MS was used for detection and identification of volatile compounds. During kimchi fermentation, in the early stage, dimethyl sulfide, carbon disulfide were detected as major compounds and after 7 days several sulfur compounds, dimethyl disulfide, methyl 2-propenyl disulfide, allyl methyl sulfide, and di-2-propenyl disulfide bacame the major volatiles. After vacuum-drying, the kimchi powder lost 11 compounds but still retained 13 volatiles of which major compounds were dimethyl sulfide, acetaldehyde and methanethiol. In order to keep volatiles in kimchi powder along with the drying process, 0.25-1.0% cyclodextrin was added in kimchi and dried-kimchi was prepared by using vacuum dryer. Cyclodextrin acted as an encapsulation agent for aroma compounds and it resulted in less loss of volatiles during drying process. Addition of cyclodextrin will permit industry-scale production of dried-kimchi powder with less loss of aroma compounds.

New simple methods for the Isolation of sesquiterpenes from Panax ginseng were developed. First, volatile compounds were isolated by simultaneous distillation and extraction (SDE) with 30% methanol and $\alpha$-hexane instead of water and ethyl ether/pentane (1:1). Secondly, head space volatiles in U-shaped tube at 7$0^{\circ}C$ were passed through C18 Sep-Pak by nitrogen gas streaming and the adsorbed volatiles were fluted by $\alpha$-hexane. TLC analysis showed that the volatile concentrates consisted mainly of terpenes when colored by vanillin-sulfuric and. GC/MS data revealed that approximately 30 sesquiterpenes of molecular weight 204 occupied 81.1% or more of the volatile concentrates isolated by those two newly developed methods. Among these, alloaromadendrene, germacrene B, isocaryophyllene, $\alpha$-neoclovene, ${\gamma}$-muurolene, $\beta$-panaslnsene, and $\alpha$-humulene were identified as being major sesqulterpenes by authentic samples or literatme search Key words : Panax ginseng, volatile compound, sesquiterpene, isolation, new method, GC/MS.

We report an evaluation of the immunostimulatory effect of propolis volatiles from a stingless honeybee. We studied 34 elderly residents at a special nursing home. Twenty-one subjects were treated with propolis, 8 with $Binch\hat{o}$ charcoal and 5 subjects acted as controls. Subjects treated with either propolis or Bincho charcoal were housed in rooms separated from the other non-study residents in the nursing home. The effects of each treatment on natural killer (NK) cell activity and lymphocyte levels were examined after 2 months and then for a longer period. The results indicated that NK cell activity was significantly improved to that within the normal range only after propolis treatment.

Fuel characteristics of sewage sludge as required for the fluidized bed incinerators have been evaluated. Sewage sludge is basically a solid fuel with high percentage of moisture. Moisture content of the fuel directly affects the heating value of the fuel and the exhaust gas composition. When the sludge of transported into the incinerator, sludge cake is subject to the mixing, break-up and heat-up. Fluidization process would enhance these physical processes. The sludge fuel could then undergo the moisture evaporation and devolatilization process. Subsequent oxidation of volatiles as well as the remaining char would then follow. Sludge samples are characterized with high percentage of volatiles out of total combustibles. Quantitative understanding of above listed subprocesses would certainly help in the utilization of fluidized bed incinerators. A limited set of fuel characterization tests including calorimetric analysis, proximate analysis, elemental analysis and thermogravimetric analysis were conducted for the selected sludge samples. The measurement reasults of sludge samples were reported along with some published data. Limited experience in the actual incinerator plant is also presented.

The volatile aroma constituents of Chrysanthemum zawadskii var. latilobum K. were separated by hydro distillation extraction (HDE) method using a Clevenger-type apparatus, and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The yield of C. zawadskii var. latilobum K. flower essential oil (FEO) was 0.12% (w/w) and the color was light green. Fifty-five volatile chemical components, which make up 88.38% of the total aroma composition, were tentatively characterized. C. zawadskii var. latilobum K. FEOs contained 27 hydrocarbons, 12 alcohols, 7 ketones, 4 esters, 1 aldehyde, 1 amine, and 3 miscellaneous components. The major functional groups were terpene alcohol and ketone. Borneol (12.96), (${\pm}$)-7-epi-amiteol (12.60), and camphor (10.54%) were the predominant volatiles. These compounds can be used in food and pharmaceutical industries due to their active bio-functional properties.

Analysis of pultrusion process for the thermosetting composites containing volatiles was performed. Degree of cure, amount of volatile evolved and pulling force were calculated for the processing variables such as die temperature and pulling speed. Cure kinetics was modeled from the data obtained by DSC(Differential Scanning Calorimeter). The volatile evolution kinetics was modeled from the data by DSC as well as TGA(Thermo Gravimetric Analyzer). The cure kinetics and volatile evolution kinetics models were incorporated into the energy equation. The resulting governing equation was solved using finite element method. Pulling force was calculated through the analysis of pressure developed inside the pultrusion die. Experiments were performed and the data were compared with the calculated results. Good agreements were observed.

The volatiles formed from the reactions of L-ascorbic acid with L-alanine at 5 different pH (5, 6, 7, 8, or 9) and $140{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr was performed using solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (SPME-GC-MS) analysis were identified to be 25 different kinds. The reaction between L-ascorbic acid and L-alanine led mainly to the formation of pyrazines. Many of these were alkylpyrazines, such as 3-ethyl-2,5-dimethylpyrazine, 2,5-dimethylpyrazine, 2-ethyl-5-methylpyrazine, 3,5-diethyl-2-methylpyrazine, methylpyrazine, 2-ethyl-6-methylpyrazine, and 2,3-diethyl-5-methylpyrazine, other compounds identified were furans, phenols, benzoquinones, 2,4,6-trimethylpyridine, and 2-methylbenzoxazole. The studies showed that furans, such as furfural and benzofuran were formed mainly at acidic pH. In contrast, higher pH values could promote the production of pyrazines.

The formation mechanism of void defect which deteriorate composite's property is various according to each composite process. In this paper, void formation and growth mechanism is analyzed by thermal analysis and GC/MS. We made a vacuum chamber for observing pressure effect. Thermal analysis has been done in various condition. Elements of volatiles during resin curing were turned out by GC/MS. The most of volatiles of polyester were composed of styrene (over 80%) and a small quantity of toluene. In case epoxy resin, butyl glycidyl ether was the main element of volatiles (over 90%). We concluded that the original sites of void growth existed in resin and they were eliminated by vacuum and heating process. And the growth of void was influenced by water, diluents, solvent, and reactants in resin.
