This study was conducted to investigate the usefulness of Perilla frutescens var. acuta as a natural spice. Volatile flavor components of dried Perilla frutescens var. acuta were extracted by supercritical fluid extraction method using diethyl ether as solvent. Essential oils were analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) and combined gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Identification of volatile flavor components was based on the RI of GC and mass spectrum of GC-MS. A total of 24 components, including 4 hydrocarbons, 3 aldehydes, 8 alcohols, 4 esters, 3 acids and 2 miscellaneous components were identified in the essential oils. L-Perillaldehyde was found to be the major volatile flavor component of dried Perilla frutescens var. acuta. The masking effects of Perilla frutescens var. acuta on meaty and fishy flavor were measured by sensory evaluation. Meaty flavor was significantly reduced with the addition of 0.05%, 0.1%, and 0.2% Perilla frutescens var. acuta. The addition of 0.1% and 0.2% powdered Perilla frutescens var. acuta also reduced the fishy flavor of mackerel.

Volatile flavor components in the Chinese quince fruits were trapped by simultaneous steam distillation-extraction method, and these were fractionated into the neutral, the basic, the phenolic and the acidic fraction. In the identification of carboxylic acids, the acidic fraction was methylated with diazomethane. Volatile flavor components in these fractions were analyzed by the high-resolution GC and GC-MS equipped with a fused silica capillary column. The total of one hundred and forty-five compounds from the steam volatile concentrate of the Chinese quince fruits were identified: they were 3 aliphatic hydrocarbons, 1 cyclic hydrocarbon, 4 aromatic hydrocarbons, 9 terpene hydrocarbons, 17 alcohols, 3 terpene alcohols, 6 phenols, 21 aldehydes, 7 ketones, 28 esters, 27 acids, 3 furans, 2 thiazoles, 2 acetals, 3 lactones and 9 miscellaneous ones. The greater part of the components except for carboxylic acids were identified from the neutral fraction. The neutral fraction gave a much higher yield than others and was assumed to be indispensable for the reproduction of the aroma of the Chinese quince fruits in a sensory evaluation. According to the results of the GC-sniff evaluation, 1-hexanal, cis-3-hexenal, trans-2-hexenal, 2-methyl-2-hepten-6-one, 1-hexanol, cis-3-hexenol, trans, trans-2, 4-hexadienal and trans-2-hexenol were considered to be the key compounds of grassy odor. On the other hand, esters seemed to be the main constituents of a fruity aroma in the Chinese quince fruits.

The comparison of the volatile flavor components from Korean and Japanese Satsuma mandarin (C. unshiu Marcov. forma Miyagawa-wase) peel oils, isolated by cold-pressing, was performed by gas chromatography, mass-spectrometry and gas chromatography-olfactometry (GC-O). Eighty-five volatile components were identified in each oil by GC and GC-MS. Forty-three components were detected in each oil by GC-O. The total amount of monoterpene hydrocarbons was 95.88% (Korean mandarin) and 95.29% (Japanese mandarin). Limonene, ${\gamma}$-terpinene, myrcene and $\alpha$-pinene were the main components of the cold-pressed oils from the both samples. The volatile composition of the Japanese mandarin was characterized by a higher content of sesquiterpene hydrocarbons, especially bicyclogermacrene, $\alpha$-humullene and valencene. The volatile composition of two samples can easily be distinguished by the percentages of aldehydes, ketones and esters, which were found at higher levels in the Japanese mandarin. The sweet and fruity flavor was stronger in the Korean mandarin oil while herbaceous flavor was stronger in Japanese sample. From GC-O data it is suggested that the sweet and fruity flavor of the Korean mandarin resulted from terpinolene and linalool, and the herbaceous note of the Japanese mandarin from $\alpha$-humullene, nepal, ι-carvone and perill aldehyde.

In order to retain or remove the flavor components of onions, this study was performed to investigate the effect of seaweeds and adsorbents on volatile flavor components of onion juice by testing a sensory evaluation, measuring the amount of pyruvate and thiosulfinate, and investigating the changes of volatile components by SPME/GC. The main flavor compounds in raw onion juice were dipropyl tetrasulfide, 1-propenyl propyl trisulfide, methyl propyl trisulfide, dipropyl trisulfide. Volatile flavor compounds in onion juice treated with tangleweed, brown-seaweed, laver and celite showed a relatively decreasing tendency compared to untreated onion juice, but most of volatile flavor compounds in onion juice treated with activated charcoal and ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$ were removed. The result of the sensory evaluation with various materials for masking onion flavor showed a significant difference at the p<0.05 level. The amount of pyruvate and thiosulfinate treated with tangleweed, brown-seaweed, laver and celite showed little difference compared to untreated onion juice, but the amount of pyruvate and thiosulfinate treated with activated charcoal and ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$ decreased largely compared to untreated onion juice. As a result of the study, onion juice treated with tangleweed, brown-seaweed, laver and celite showed the effect of preserving the pungent taste and masking the onion flavor. Activated charcoal and ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$added to onion juice might have a role in removing the onion flavor by adsorbing volatile flavor compounds in onion.

To produce a new tea with a good flavor and functional properties using green tea of low quality, naked barley and barley were selected to blend with the green tea. The simultaneous distillation extraction method (SDE) using Likens and Nickerson's extraction apparatus was used to extract the volatile flavor compounds from the samples. The concentrated flavor extracts were analyzed and identified by GC and GC-MS. The GC patterns of the flavor components in two parched barleys were very different. The main volatile flavor components in two of the samples were alkyl pyrazines. Compounds including 3-methylbutanal, 2-methylbutanal, dihydro-2-methyl-3(2H)-furanone, 2,5-dimethyl pyrazine, and 3-ethyl-2.5-dimethyl pyrazine were isolated from the naked barley. Compounds including thiophenes, thiazoles, sulfides, and pyrroles with burnt odor were isolated from the barley. The parched naked barley was better than barley for adding to green tea. The main aroma components of the green tea blended with the naked barley were hexanol, hexanal, trans-2-hexenal, ${\beta}$-ionone, ${\alpha}$-ionone, alkyl pyrazines, 3-methylbutanal, 2-methylbutanal, and furfural.
