Recently, as the interest in makgeolli has increased and its products have become more diverse, the need to analyze the flavor of makgeolli has emerged. In this study, we analyzed the volatile flavor components in commercial makgeolli using an electronic nose. Discrimination function analysis suggested differences in flavor characteristics of commercial makgeolli depending on sterilization and type of fermentation starter. According to the variable importance point scores determined by partial least squares-discriminant analysis, it was revealed that sterilization, nuruk, and yeast profoundly influence the contents of ethyl acetate (fruity scent), acetaldehyde (strong odor) and isoamyl acetate (fruity scent), respectively. This result is expected to be a valuable stepstone to the characterization of makgeolli.

Donkey in China is well known for its draft purpose and transportation; however, donkey meat has attracted more and more consumers in recent years, yet it lacks sufficient information on its flavor components compared to other main meats. Therefore, in this study, volatile flavor compounds in neck meat of donkey, swine, bovine, and sheep were classified by electronic nose, then confirmed and quantified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography were used to quantify free fatty acid, amino acid, and flavor nucleotide. A total of 73 volatile compounds were identified, and aldehydes were identified as the characteristic flavor compounds in neck meat of donkey, bovine, swine and sheep in proportion of 76.39%, 46.62%, 31.64%, and 35.83%, respectively. Particularly, hexanal was the most abundant volatile flavor. Compared with other neck meat, much higher unsaturated free fatty acids were present in donkeys. Furthermore, neck meat of donkeys showed essential amino acid with highest content. Thus, special flavor and nutrition in donkey neck meat make it probably a candidate for consumers in other regions besides Asia.

Seasoning oils(SO) were manufactured by direct fire method(DFM) and autoclaving method(AM) using sunflower seed meal. The SO manufactured by DFM is stronger than that by AM for Lovibond color and flavor strength. The flavor strength of 2 kinds SOs were lower than sesame oil as a control group. But acid value of SOs were superior than sesame oil, 0.452, 0.463 and 1.987, respectively. The level of Lovibond color for 2 kinds of sample seasoning oil was similar. Composition and contents of total volatile flavor components were determined from their essential oils of sesame oil and 2 kinds sample seasoning oils. As a result, total volatile flavor contents of sesame oil was 1,300.6 ppm, and that of seasoning oil samples were 697.8 ppm, 648.2 ppm, respectively. Major volatile flavor components of seasoning oil were 2-butanone, hexanal, methyl pyrazine etc. In contrast, major volatile flavor component of sesame oil was pyrazines, but that was not a major component of 2 kinds of sample seasoning oils.

The volatile flavor components in mash of nonglutinous rice Takju brewed with or without addition of the starter were determined by GC and GC-MS using polar column. Various kinds of volatile components including alcohols(10), esters(9), organic acids(2) and aldehydes(7) were found in mash of nonglutinous rice Takjus. At the beginning stage of fermentation, 3 to 7 volatile flavor components were detected. The number of volatile flavor components were increased to 26 of to 28 after 16 days fermentation. Early in the brewing, just 3 kinds of flavor components including ethyl acetate, ${\beta}-phenylethyl$ acetate and acetic acid were detected in mash of nonglutinous rice Takju without the addition of the starter, when starter is added additional compounds of alcohol including ethanol were detected, which is suggested to be the effect of flavors originated from the starter. The common flavor compounds through the entire process of fermentation in mash of nonglutinous rice Takju were ethyl acetate, ${\beta}-phenylethyl$ acetate and acetic acid. The relative amount(peak area %) of flavor components were changed with the fermentation period, but the major volatile flavor components were ethyl alcohol, iso-amyl alcohol, hexenyl alcohol, ethyl acetate, ${\beta}-phenylethyl$ acetate and ${\beta}-phenylethyl$ alcohol. The relative amount(peak area %) of ethyl alcohol was the highest in mash of nonglutinous rice Takju with addition of starter. When the starter was not added in the mash of nonglutinous rice Takju, any alcoholic components were not detected in the early stage of fermentation. But the percent of peak area hexenyl alcohol was the highest after 16 days fermentation. Especially few sorts of ester were detected in mash of nonglutious rice Takju without addition of starter by 3 days fermentation.

This study was to evaluate the biological activity of flavor components extracted from E. ciliata and E. splendens in order to survey the possibility applicable to tobacco and food industry. Flavor components were extracted with dividing into three parts; essential oil, absolute, oleoresin. In the nonenzymatic lipid peroxidation system, the inhibition rate($\%$) of essential oil were $67.3\;\pm\;20.7\%,\;58.1\;\pm\;19.3\%$ at the concentration of 50 ${\mu}g/mL$ of E. ciliata and E. splendens, respectively. The inhibition rate($\%$) of the oleoresin in E. ciliata was higher than one in E. splendens. In the enzymatic lipid peroxidation system, the inhibition rate($\%$) of essential oil and oleoresin was$14.28\;\pm\;2.38\%,\;and\;65.93\;\pm\;0.01\%,\;and\;was\;22.58\;\pm\;2.84\%\;and\;40.73\;pm\;6.04\%$. The oleoresin of two species were showed above $90\%$ of the inhibition rate($90\%$) against autooxidative lipid peroxidation system. $EC_{50}$ values in neutral red uptake assays 24 h of exposure times were $23.3\;{\mu}g/mL,\;341.0\;{\mu}g/mL\;and\;17.2\;{\mu}g/mL$ in essential oil, absolute and oleoresin from E. ciliata respectively, and were $46.4\;{\mu}g/mL,\;681.7\;{\mu}g/mL\;17.6\;{\mu}g/mL$ in three extractions of E. splendens. Oleoresin of two species showed high rate in the cytotoxic effect by neutral red uptake assay. Absolute and oleoresin did not show antibiotic and mutagenic activity. On the contrary, essential oil with over 500 ug/plate showed antibiotic and mutagenic activity in Ames test. Essential oil and oleoresin have a prolongating effect the ciliostasis of rat trachea. This results indicate that flavor components extracted from E. ciliata and E. splendens can be considered to be toxicological safe and to be the possibility applicable the cigarette, food and drug industry as a flavor for expectoration.

This study investigated the quality characteristics and volatile flavor components of aronia wine (Aronia melanocarpa (0~100%)). After 12 days of fermentation, the alcohol contents of aronia wines ranged between 9.0~12.0%. The pH level and total acidity of aronia wines were 3.20~3.68 and 0.57~0.76 g/100 mL, respectively. The organic acid analysis of wine containing 100% aronia, revealed malic acid content at 3.70 mg/mL, followed by tartaric acid, lactic acid, and citric acid. As the aronia content increased, both the total polyphenol content and the antioxidant activity (the DPPH radical scavenging activity) also significantly increased. The total polyphenol content was the highest in the wine with 100% aronia (461.33 mg%), and the antioxidant activity showed the highest values in the wine with 100% aronia (91.91%). Volatile flavor component analysis of aronia wines identified 8 alcohols, 12 esters, 4 ketones, and 7 other compounds. In the sensory evaluation, the color, flavor, and taste of wine with 20% aronia showed higher values than other aronia wines. Based on the results of the present study, we suggest that 20% aronia is most beneficial in improving the quality as well as sensory characteristics of the wine.
