Morels (Morchella spp.) are valuable medicinal and edible mushrooms. In this study, chemical profiles of aromas and lipophilic extracts of black morel (Morchella importuna) grown in China were analyzed by gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy, along with the evaluation of antioxidant and antimicrobial activities for the lipophilic extracts. Sixty-five compounds in total were identified from the aromas, and 1-octen-3-ol was the main component for aromas of fresh (34.40%) and freeze-dried (68.61%) black morels, while the most abundant compound for the aroma of the oven-dried sample was 2(5H)-furanone (13.95%). From the lipophilic extracts, 29 compounds were identified with linoleic acid as the main compound for fresh (77.37%) and freeze-dried (56.46%) black morels and steroids (92.41%) as the main constituent for an oven-dried sample. All three lipophilic extracts showed moderate antioxidant activities against 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl and 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) with the IC50 values ranging 7.56~17.52 mg/mL and 5.75~9.73 mg/mL, respectively, and no obvious antimicrobial activity was observed for lipophilic extracts. The drying methods affect the chemical profile of black morel, and freeze-drying was favorable for retaining nutrients and morel smell. This is the first report on the aroma and lipophilic extracts of M. importuna grown in China.

This experiment was conducted to investigate changes of the components in steamed and roasted green tea after 10 min, 20 min and 30 min of heat treatment of heat treatment at $110^{\circ}C$. Vitamin C and tannin were determined by spetrophotometry. Total nitrogen, water-soluble nitrogen and water-soluble non protein nitrogen were determined by Kjeldahl analysis system. Aromas were identified by gas chromatography. After heat treatment, contents of most compounds decreased. Tannin and caffeine decreased a little bit, while vitamin C decreased considerably. There were both decreases and increases in aromas. Aromas which increased were geraniol, trans-2-hexenol, linalool, $\alpha$-ionone and $\beta$-ionone. From these results, it was concluded that the highest quality of green tea was one steam- treated for 10 min at $110^{\circ}C$.

Aromas of sulfur-containing volatiles from two vegetable varieties of Cruciferae Brassica oleracea and the suppression of undesirable sulfurous aromas of cruciferous vegetables by sulfhydryl oxidase of caraway seeds were examined. Aroma components were separated by gas chromatography equipped with a dual flame photometric detector The volatile sulfides produced from cabbage and broccoli varied. in the relative quantities and rates of production. according to the amount of caraway seeds added and incubation time. The amount of methanethiol and dimethyl disulfide in the cabbage and broccoli with caraway seeds was far less than those in the cabbage and broccoli. Removal of methanethiol and dimethyl disulfide was proportional to the amount of caraway seeds added, and was remarkable with 2.5% aqueous slurries of caraway seeds added.

Truffles are the fruiting bodies of ascomycete fungi that form underground. Truffles are globally valued, culturally celebrated as aphrodisiacs, and highly sought-after delicacies in the culinary world. For centuries, naturalists have speculated about their mode of formation, and in cultures surrounding the Mediterranean Sea, many species have been prized as a delectable food source. Truffle fruiting bodies form underground and emit a variety of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Truffle volatiles are believed to have evolved to attract animals that disperse their spores. The main VOCs identified from truffles include sulfur compounds, such as dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and dimethyl disulfide (DMDS); in addition, 1-octen-3-ol and 2-methyl-1-propanol have been found in most truffle species. Humans use pigs and dogs trained to detect truffle VOCs in order to find these prized subterranean macrofungi. Truffles have pharmacological potential, but until more reliable cultivation methods become available their high price means they are unlikely to see widespread use as medicinals.

The aroma component of Hallabong peel has been characterized by GC-MS with two different extraction techniques: solid-phase trapping solvent extraction (SPTE) and headspace solid-phase microextraction (HSSPME). Aroma components emitted from Hallabong peel were compared with those of other citrus varieties: lemon, orange and grapefruit by SPTE and GC-MS. d-Limonene (96.98%) in Hallabong was the main component, and relatively higher peaks of cis- ${\beta}$-ocimene, valencene and -farnesene were observed. Other volatile aromas, such as sabinene, isothujol and ${\delta}$-elemene were observed as small peaks. Also, principal components analysis was employed to distinguish citrus aromas based on their chromatographic data. For HSSPME, the fiber efficiency was evaluated by comparing the partition coefficient ($K_{gs}$Kgs) between the HS gaseous phase and HS-SPME fiber coating, and the relative concentration factors (CF) of the five characteristic compounds of the four citrus varieties. 50/30 ${\mu}$m DVB/CAR/PDMS fiber was verified as the best choice among the four fibers evaluated for all the samples.

The present study was performed to obtain data that could be used to popularize yakju(Korean traditional rice wine) by surveying how well rice wine goes with pairing foods. The survey was given to 302 men and women living in the Seoul and Gyunggi areas and work in the food service industry. The Jeon group, Gui group, Jeongol and Jjigae group, Pyeonyuk and Bossam group, and Muchim group were selected as menu items that go well with available rice wines. The survey aimed to identify foods that go well with four rice wines with different sensory characteristics. The survey results showed that both men and women replied that rice wines with Nuruk aroma and Nuruk taste go well with the Jeon group, rice wines with sour and flower aromas and common characteristics go well with the Muchim group, and rice wines with sweet and fruit tastes go well with the Muchim group. However, men and women had different opinions on rice wines having ginseng, soil, and herbal medicine aromas. Men replied that such rice wines go well with grilled meat, whereas women replied that these rice wines go well with Pyeonyuk and Bossan groups.

Forests are valuable natural resources for people living around the mountains. In particular, the comfortable feeling or healing is one of the most important benefits obtained from forests. This healing can be possible by many aspects of forests, including the landscape, natural sounds, anions, and pleasant aromas. We focused on the volatile organics from forest causing pleasant aromas, phytoncides. Twenty phytoncides were monitored from February to September in a national tree garden (BaekDoDaeGan SooMokWon). Five sites were monitored two times per month and 20 phytoncides were detected. Borneol showed the highest annual average concentration and the order of concentration was borneol > mycene > sabinene > limonene > α-pinene. The average phytoncide concentration was relatively high in spring and summer season when the trees were physiologically active. Daily monitoring showed that the afternoon hours had higher concentrations of phytoncides than the morning hours, which may be due to the stabilized atmospheric conditions at the sites. Among the five sites, coniferous forests gave higher phytoncide emissions than broadleaf tree forests. The current study showed that forests produce several phytoncides that cause a healing effect and a forest bath may be beneficial to the health of visitors to forests.

This study was conducted to investigate the physicochemical compositions in the root, stem and fruit of A. chilsanensis. The contents of crude fat were 2.09, 2.51 and 7.94%, and crude proteins were 11.50%, 7.18% and 10.17%, respectively. Crude ash levels were 11.07, 6.85 and 6.38%, respectively, and it was higher in root than stem or fruit. The contents of reducing sugar were 18.90, 10.70 and 24.05 g/100 g in the root, stem and fruit of A. chilsanensis. As a result of color measurement, L value (lightness) of stem, a value (redness) of fruit and b value (yellowness) of root were high, respectively. The content of free sugar was high in all root, stem and fruit, in order of fructose, glucose and sucrose. Acanthoside-D, the main factor of A. chilsanensis, was 18.95 mg/100 g in stem, 8.10 mg/100 g in root and 2.85 mg100 g in fruit. Free amino acid in stem was 955.26 mg/100 g, which was 4.5 times higher than in stem and 8.5 times higher than in fruit. Natural aromas were identified by GC/GC-MS. Natural aromas such as $\alpha$-pinene, $\beta$-pinene, 3-carene and D-limonene were detected in A. chilsanensis.

In this study, wild sesame leaf aromas (WSLA) were extracted and the extracted aromas were entrapped in porous potato starch micelles. The entrapped aromas did not evaporate, even by heated water treatments, and remained until a physical treatment such as chewing. Thus, the entrapped WSLA starch was used to make precooked instant noodles in order to mask or/and reduce an unpleasant raw flour flavor. The efficiencies of the flavor entrapment were analyzed using gas-chromatography equipped with solid phase micro-extraction (SPME), as well as by sensory evaluation. The highest yield of the porous potato starch was shown as 82.4% at an inlet temperature (IT) of $170^{\circ}C$, an exhaust temperature (ET) of $90^{\circ}C$, and a feeding rate (FR) of 40 mL/min. In the porous starch made by IT at $200^{\circ}C$, ET at $100^{\circ}C$, and FR at 50 mL/min, the entrapment efficiency was 68% by GC analysis; this starch also had the highest WSLA and consumer acceptability, but the lowest raw flour flavor, according to the sensory evaluation results.
