Since Houttuynia cordata is well known as a medicinal herb, due to its antibacterial activity on various microorganisms, present investigation was performed to identify the flavor compounds for volatile essential oil. Volatile essential oil was collected by simultaneous distillation-extraction(SDE), and then the oil components were separated on HP-5 capilliary column$(25m{\times}0.25mm\; i.d.)$ and identified those components by GC-MS. Fifty two compounds were isolated from the volatile essential oil of Houttuynia cordata and forty four were positively identified by GC-MS. The volatile compounds were composed mainly of terpenoids(25 classes), aldehydes(7 classes), alcohols(4 classes), ketones(3 classes), acids(1 class) and miscellaneous compounds(4 classes). Of these, the major compounds were ${\beta}-myrcene$, ${\beta}-ocimene$, decanal, 2-undecanone and geranyl propionate.

Flavor components focused on the methyl pyrazines(2,3-dimethyl pyrazine, 2,3,5-trimethyl pyrazine, tetramethyl pyrazine) of microwave-roasted cocoa beans were determined and compared with those of conventionally-roasted cocoa beans. Domestic microwave oven was modified to design the microwave roasting system. Temperature measurement technique using thermocouple probes was developed to determine the center temperature of cocoa beans during microwave roasting. Microwave roasting was carried out under two different conditions. Under the first condition, roasting time was fixed to 30 min, while roasting temperature was varied to $110^{\circ}C,\;120^{\circ}C,\;130^{\circ}C,\;140^{\circ}C,\;and\;150^{\circ}C$ Under the second condition, roasting temperature was fixed to $130^{\circ}C$, while roasting time was varied to 5 min, 10 min, 20 min, and 30 min. Conventional roasting was done at $120^{\circ}C$ for 15 min as a reference. Amount of methyl pyrazines and their ratios were influenced by microwave roasting temperature and roasting time. The most suitable methyl pyrazine ratio of cocoa beans was obtained at $140^{\circ}C$ for 30 min of microwave roasting.

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.

Cooked soybeans were fermented with B. subtilis and B. natto for 48 hrs and 74 hrs. The odor concentrates of during these Chungkookjang fermentation were obtained with a simultaneous distillation and extraction system. The seperation and identification were carried out by GC and GC-MS. The main components of the cooked odor concentrate of soybeans were 3-methyl-1-butanol, 1-pentanol and 1-octen-3-ol etc.. In Chungkookjang (B. subtilis inoculation), 3-methyl-1-butanol, 1-pentanol and 1-octen-3-ol remained but alkyl pyrazines such as 2,5-dimethyl pyrazine, trimethyl pyrazine and tetramethyl pyrazine increased and those increased during the fermentation. In Chungkookjang(B. natto inoculation), 3-methyl-1-butanol, 1-pentanol and 1-octen-3-ol, main components of cooked soybeans decreased and alkyl pyrazines increased, especially, tetramethyl pyrazine remarkably increased during fermentation. From the result, it seems that alkyl pyrazines caused the characteristic odor of Chungkookjang and mask the beany odor.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the chemical components of Perilla leaf(frutescens Britton var. scuta Kudo) according to the making process, and to examine Hunter's color value and sensory evaluation of Jasosuksu by extraction time. Perilla leaves were prepared in three types; fresh leaf, dried leaf in the shade and roasted leaf after being dried in the shade in order to make Jasosuksu. The results of the research were as follows: Free sugars(sucrose, glucose, fructose) and organic acids(citric acid, tartaric acid, malic acid, succinic acid) were present in the fresh leaf, dried leaf and roasted leaf. $15{\sim}16$ kinds of amino acid including aspartic acid were determined in the fresh leaf, dried leaf and roasted leaf, and the major free amino acids were serine, aspartic acid, and glutamic acid. The major total amino acids of tile fresh leaf, dried leaf and roasted leaf were glutamic acid, histinine, and glycine. The major fatty acids of Perilla leaves were palmitic acid, linolenic acid, and linolenic acid. The content ratio of linolenic acid in fresh leaves was the highest, but that of palmitic acid was lower than that of dried leaves and roasted leaves. L value, a value, and b value of Perilla leaf were the highest in the roasted leaves followed by the order of dried leaves and fresh leaves. L value and b value of Jasosuksu extracted from roasted leaves were higher than Jasosuksu extracted from dried leaves. The preference of color, flavor, sweetness of Jasosuksu extracted from dried leaves was the highest when extraction time was 10 min. at $70^{\circ}C$, but that of Jasosuksu extracted from roasted leaves was the highest when extraction time was 15 min. at $70^{\circ}C$. The preference of color, flavor, taste of Jasosuksu extracted from roasted leaves was higher than that of Jasosuksu extracted from dried leaves.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of Bifidobacteria growth promoter BE0623 and a dietary fiber supplement, which included Bifidobacterium lactis BB12, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Streptococcus thermophilus, and Bifidobacterium lactis. In fermented milk containing BE0623, the viable cell count of Bifidobacteria significantly increased by about 45 to 75 times compared to the control, and the titratable acidity increased, whereas the pH decreased. All fractions obtained by isolating BE0623 had Bifidobacteria growth effect. Acacia dietary fiber is a pale yellow powder. It has a viscosity of 60 to 100 cPs and a pH between 4.1 and 5.0. Its general components are less than 10% moisture, more than 90% dietary fiber, and less than 4% ash. The optimal addition ratio of Bifidobacteria growth promoting material was determined to be 0.05%. The general components of the manufactured fermented milk were carbohydrate 17.85%, protein 3.63%, fat 3.00%, and dietary fiber 2.95%. During storage of the fermented milk for 24 days, its titratable acidity, viscosity, and sugar content all met the criteria. In addition, the viable cell counts of Bifidobacteria and lactic acid bacteria in the fermented milk were 1.7 × 10⁸ CFU·mL^-1 and 1.5 × 10⁷ CFU·mL^-1, respectively, and Escherichia coli was negative. There was no significant difference between the control group and the treatment group in the sensory evaluation of sweet, sour, weight, and flavor, and the preference for the treatment group was excellent. The acceptability of the fermented milk of the treated group according to the storage period was excellent in terms of color, flavor, and appearance.

In order to investigate the effect of different yeasts (La Parisienne (LP), Y18-2, Y54-3, Y90-2, Y90-9 and Y272-7) from nuruks on the quality of Glutinous rice wines, physicochemical properties and volatile flavor components were evaluated. Glutinous rice wines prepared with different yeasts were analyzed for ethanol, pH, total acid, amino acid, soluble solid, coloring degree, UV absorbance, reducing sugar, organic acid, free sugar and volatile compounds. After fermentation for 17 days, the ethanol contents ranged from 13.40 to 14.50%, while the total acid levels were from 0.33 to 0.44%. The amino acid contents in six samples ranged from 0.13 to 0.18%, while soluble solid contents ranged from 12.1 to $14.7^{\circ}Bx$. The glutinous rice wine prepared with LP showed the highest level of coloring degree, soluble solid and reducing sugar among six samples. Organic acid contents of the glutinous rice wine prepared with LP had the highest levels of lactic acid and acetic acid, while the glutinous rice wine prepared with Y90-9 had the highest level of succinic acid. In all glutinous rice wines tested, the most abundant free sugars were glucose followed by maltose. Volatile flavor components in the glutinous rice wines were identified by using GC-MSD. Nineteen esters, ten alcohols, eight acids, one aldehyde and one miscellaneous compound were identified in the glutinous rice wines. Using relative peak area, it was found that other than ethyl alcohol, hexadecanoic acid ethyl ester was the major component, predominantly found in the range of 2.73-10.41%. Phenylethyl alcohol, isoamyl alcohol, ethyl oleate, ethyl linoleate and tetradecanoic acid ethyl ester were some of the major volatile components present through the fermentation, respectively. Overall, it was shown that different yeast strains from nuruks greatly affected chemical and volatile characteristics of the glutinous rice wines.

The suwey on the consumption pattern of Korean traditional soy sauce and commercial soy sauce was performed. 55.8 percentage of surveyed house makes Korean traditional soy sauce domestically, But its frequency in actual use is lower than commercial soy sauce. The use of Korean traditional soy sauce and commercial soy sauce was different depending on the kinds of food. Korean traditional soy sauce is mainly used for kinds of soup, and commercial soy sauce is predominantly used for hard-boiled foods and Chapchae. Korean traditional soy sauce is known as our typical fermented food and has special flavor. But its main factors of special flavor were not well established yet. So the authors have investigated the main components of Korean traditional soy sauce for its typical taste. Five samples o$.$ere selected from'Kyung-ln'area. The sensory charac teristics of Korean traditional soy sauce itself were very different with that of cooked food added with Korean traditional soy sauce. The hard-boiled mackerel cooked with commercial soy sauce was prefered than Korean traditional soy sauce. And soups and seasoned vegetables cooked with Korean traditional soy sauce were profered. By stepwiEe regression analysis and correlation analysis, sensory overall acceptability mainly depends on specific gravity, salt content and amino nitrogen content (R'=0.94). And total nitrogen content was highly coirelated with overall acceptability (r=0.91).

As a part of basic investigation for utilization of canned food processing by-products, a food components of the canned oyster processing waste water such as boiled and released water(BRW), wash water(WW) were investigated and compared with hot-water extracts from oyster. From the results of measuring heavy metal conte수, viable cells and coliform group, the canned oyster processing waste waters might not invoke health risk in using food resource. The contents of taste compounds (free amino acids, ATP related compounds, TMA (O) and total creatinine) of BRW and WW accounted for about 254% and 95%, respectively, in comparison with those of control (hot-water extract from oyster). The BRW showed a very high content of salt in comparing to the WW and control. In descending order, the values of whiteness index was WW, control and BRW. Sensory scores for color, oyster flavor intensity and saline taste were not significantly different between WW and control. But, BRW had the highest score in oyster flavor intensity, while had the lowest score in color and saline taste. But, the color and saline taste of BRW might be able to control by some pretreatment (concentration and drying in mild condition, desalination and recipe control etc). These results indicated that BRW and WW generated from various step during canned oyster processing could be a potential food resource by controlling of saline taste and color intensity.
