The purpose of our study was to determine the impact of rosemary extract in duck eggs, as determined by in vitro antioxidant capacity, lipid oxidation, fatty acid profiles, and flavor analyses. Three groups of salted duck eggs were compared: A control group and group enriched with 0.1% and 0.5% (w/v) rosemary extracts for 28 days of salting. In a time-dependent manner, the radical scavenging activity and reduction power of eggs with 0.5% (w/v) rosemary extract were significantly higher those of the control at 28 days after salting. The fatty acid profiles of salted egg were significantly affected by rosemary extract and salting time. Palmitic acid was the most abundant fatty acid in salted egg treated with rosemary extract, followed by linoleic acid and arachidonic acid. Furthermore, the treated eggs contained more docosahexaenoic acid than the control ones. And the treated eggs also have a considerable impact on the lipid oxidation process (primary and secondary oxidation). As a result, rosemary extract can be used as a natural antioxidant spice to prevent oxidation and extend the shelf life of eggs during storage. Furthermore, flavor research using solid phase microextraction - gas chromatography - mass spectrometry and an electronic nose demonstrated that adding rosemary extract to salted eggs could give them a distinct flavor.

Purge & Trap method was applied to perform more simple and rapid detection for analysis of volatile flavor compounds in milk. Maximal sampling of 30 mL milk for glass flask sparger was treated by He gas purging for 2 hours. Reported major volatile compounds were detected by GC-MS after 2 hours absorption and desorbed from Purge & Trap equipped with Tenax trap. Volatile flavor compounds were analyzed by Purge & Trap and GC-MS to investigate the changes of flavor components in milk between raw and deodorized milk. Fourteen volatile compounds including acetaldehyde, ethanol, 2-propanone, dimethyl sulfide, isobutanal, 3-methyl 2-butanone, 2-butanone, 3-methyl butanal, pentanal, 3-hydroxy-2-butanone, methyl disulfide, hexanal, and 2 others were detected. Six compounds such as ethanol, dimethyl sulfide, pentanal, 3-hydroxy-2-butanone, and methyl disulfide were completely eliminated after deodorization treatment. Four compounds such as 3-methyl 2-butanone, 2-butanone, 3-methyl butanal, and an unknown compound 81 (M/sup +/) were also decreased after raw milk was deodorized. The other four compounds such as acetaldehyde, 2-propanone, hexanal, and an unknown compound (M/sup +/) were not decreased.

The chemistry background of the Maillard reaction focused on pyrazines and factors affecting the reaction products were reviewed. The Maillard reaction, also called a non-enzymatic browning reaction, is quite complex and generates numerous reaction products. In processed foods, it is generally accepted as a key reaction to produce flavor components. Specially, pyrazines possess an important impact character on the roasted foods with other heterocyclic compounds. The Maillard reaction is initiated by condensation between reducing sugar and amino group, and N-glycosylamines are produced via Schiff base with dehydration of water. After the rearrangement of the N-glycosylamines, they follow transformation into deoxyhexosones which are reactive intermediates. Degradation and fragmentation are facilitated by rearranged compounds. By condensation, pyrazine, one of the final Maillard products, is generated as a relatively stable form to provide specific aromas. During the processes of the reaction, chemical or physical environmental parameters affect the formation of the products.

The volatile flavor components of Zanthoxylum pipperitum A.P. DC. produced in Korea and China were isolated using a Clevenger-type apparatus by steam distillation extraction, and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The yields of oils from Korean and Chinese Z. pipperitum A.P. DC. were 2.0 and 1.2% (w/w), respectively. From the two Z. pipperitum A.P. DC. oils, sixty and fifty-four volatile flavor compounds were tentatively identified, and they constituted 94.78 and 87.34% of the total peak area, respectively. Piperitone(p-menth-1-en-3-one) (13.48%) was the most abundant compound in the Chinese Zanthoxylum pipperitum A.P. DC. oil, followed by $\beta$-phellandrene, sabinene, terpinen-4-ol and linalool (each >5%). Whereas, the most abundant compound in the Korean Zanthoxylum pipperitum A.P. DC. oil was limonene (18.04%), followed by geranyl acetate, cryptone, citronellal, cuminal and phellandral (each >5%).

This study used importance-performance analysis of different attributes of Bulgogi to investigate Americans' interest in this food. The results of this study will help determine the potential of expanding its consumption in the American foodservice market. Questionnaires were distributed to 200 diners in Korean restaurants located in New York, U.S.A. from July 13 to Oct 8, 2009. A total of 172 copies were returned and analyzed in this study. Statistical analyses were conducted using SPSS 17.0. Of the total subjects, 74.4% were already familiar with Bulgogi and 69.2% had at least one experience trying it. Targeting the respondents who had eaten Bulgogi, preference and satisfaction toward the dish, as well as the intention to repurchase and recommend it to others, were examined, and scores were found to be very high at 4.53, 4.46, 4.26, and 4.47 points, respectively, on a 5-point scale. According to importance-performance analysis, the top five Bulgogi attributes in importance were taste, freshness, flavor, tenderness, and juiciness, and those for performance were freshness, flavor, taste, tenderness, and overall acceptability. However, sweetness and saltiness showed relatively lower performance and ease of purchase was noted as an attribute needing improvement. Therefore, American consumers' needs for Bulgogi should be met by enhancing its flavor, while maintaining the traditional taste, as well as by supplementing the channels providing Bulgogi.

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the sensory and instrumental quality of thawed beef steak prepared by searing and oven cooking. Beef purchased in the local market was divided into two groups; one group was cooked in a 180℃ oven until the internal temperature reached 60℃, and the other group was oven cooked until 35℃, then cooked in a 250℃ pan until the internal temperature reached 60℃. Despite a noticeable change in appearance due to the high temperature of the searing, there was no significant difference in juiciness, water content, and cooking loss between the searing-cooked and the oven-cooked steaks. However, in searing cooking, both scores of overall flavor and roast meat flavor were significantly higher than those of oven cooking. In the searing-cooked steak, the reducing sugar, which is a reactant of the Maillard reaction, was lower and Maillard-reaction products were higher than oven-cooked steak. From our results, it can be concluded that searing does not improve juiciness of the steak, but improves the flavor of beef steak due to higher levels of Maillard reaction products.
