This study tested customer preferences for "Fuji" apples stored using functional modified atmosphere film (30m) for 16 weeks at $0^{\circ}C$. Customers were 20-60 years of age and lived in either Seoul or Geochang. The freshness, texture, chewiness, and purchase attractiveness of apples in film packaging were judged to be significantly higher than control apples by those aged 20-29 years. The freshness, sourness, flavor, and purchase attractiveness of apples in film packaging were judged to be significantly higher than control apples by those aged 30-39 years. The flavor and sweetness of apples in film packag ing were judged to be significantly higher than control apples by those aged either 40-49 or 50-59 years (${\alpha}=0.05$). In the overall preference tests, apple freshness (P=0.0011), apple flavor (P=0.0002), and apple purchase attractiveness (P=0.0018) of apples in film packaging were judged to be significantly better than control apples by all age groups (those aged 20-59 years).

Objective: This experiment investigated the effects of dietary supplementation with conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) on the serum components, laying hen productivity, lipid composition of egg yolk, egg flavor and egg quality. Methods: Healthy 28-week-old Hy-Line white laying hens (n = 480) were divided randomly into 4 groups, 6 replicates/group, 20 birds/replicate. The 30-day experimental diets included 0% (control), 0.4%, 0.8%, and 1.6% CLA. Some serum indices of the birds, and egg production, quality, fatty acid composition, egg quality were measured. Results: The dietary supplementation with 0.4%, 0.8%, and 1.6% CLA did not significantly affect the laying rate and feed intake, as well as calcium ion and phosphorus ion concentration in serum (p>0.05). However, the CLA had significantly increased the strength of eggshell, decreased the odor, flavor, and taste of egg yolk, deepened the color of egg yolk, increased saturated fatty acids and polyunsaturated fatty acids, and reduced the monounsaturated fatty acids (p<0.05). On the other hand, the dietary supplementation with 1.6% CLA had significant effects on feed/gain, and improved serum hormones. Dietary supplementation with 0.4% and 0.8% CLA can significantly enhance the activity of alkaline phosphates. Conclusion: CLA has no effect on production performance, but does enhance the lipid content of the egg yolk and the strength of the eggshell.

This study was conducted to investigate the changes in chemical, microbial, sensory characteristics and volatile flavor components of wooung(burdock, Arctium lappa, L) kimchi during fermentation at 15$^{\circ}C$, Three types(A, B, C) of wooung kimchi were prepared. Sample A was prepared with basic ingredients, in the other hand, sample B was prepared with all sorts of ingredients. These samples were mixed after salting the sliced burdock with 4% brine for 30min. Sample C was prepared mixing with all sorts of ingredients after blanching the sliced burdock with 2% vinegar solution. pH decreased slowly until 3 day, and then decreased rapidly for 4~7 days in all samples. Total acidity increased gradually in all samples. The changes of pH and total acidity were the sample C and were the greatest in sample B. The reducing sugar contents decreased slowly until 7 day, and decreased rapidly for 8~14 days in sample A and B, and at 10 day in sample C, respectively. The numbers of lactic acid bacteria and total bacteria of sample B were much greater than those of other sample. In sensory evaluation, sample B exhibited the best scores and sample C showed the worst scores in all characteristics. The major volatile components in wooung kimchi were identified as ethanol, hexanal, 2-hexenal, disulfide dl- 2-prophenyl, zingiberene and $\beta$-sesquiphellandrene. The relative amounts of hexanal, 1-hexanol and ethanol were decreased, while the relative amounts of acetic acid ethyl ester, 3-htdroxy-2-butanone and acetis acid were increased gradually during fermentation.

The changes in the chemical composition of yeast extracts during autolysis and their effect to the sensory quality were studied with baker's yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The amounts of extracted solids, proteins, amio-N. amino acids, especially glutamic acid, alanine and lysine, increased by the autolysis time up to 48 hrs. The results of sensory evaluation made by the multiple paired comparision test and Duncan's test indicated a significant difference is taste by the time of autolysis. In the profile test, the flavor character notes expressed by the panel were 17 different characters, 11 in aroma and 6 in taste. The character notes and the intensity of flavor changed with the time of autolysis. The sharp and beany flavor of the extracts which was autolyzed for 4 hours turned into meaty and worty flavor by 48 hours of autolysis. A proper arrangement of the flavor characters in the quantitative descriptive chart could provide a weighted value of the flavor grade. The aroma grade index and the taste grade index correlated to the amplitudes of the profile test.

The flavor extracts of Mideoduck muscle and its juices were concentrated by simultaneous distillation and extraction (SDE) and solid-phase microextraction (SPME) methods. Each component present in the extracts was identified with GC and GC-MS by the n-paraffin hydrocarbon retention index and standard MS library data system. By SDE, $371.3\;{\mu}g/g$ of hexanal, $80.1\;{\mu}g/g$ of 1-tridecanol, $72.1\;{\mu}g/g$ of (Z)-4,5-dimethylhex-2-en-4-ol with other alcohols, aldehydes and acids were present in the flavor extracts, with the alcohols having the highest composition and being the most important factor in Mideoduck muscle flavor. By SPME, 9 alcohols, 1 acid, 1 aldehyde, 1 hydrocarbon, 1 ester, 1 amine and 2 ketones were detected in the extracts, with alcohol such as 1-nonanol, 1-decanol and 1-tridecanol as the major components. In SPME, the muscle sample, consisting of $31.6\;{\mu}g/g$ of 1-nonanol, $20.3\;{\mu}g/g$ of (E)-2-butenedioic acid dibutylester, and $26.7\;{\mu}g/g$ of heptadecanoic acid made up the 62.1% of total flavor extracts of Mideoduck muscle. The results of the SPME methods were similar to the composition of the raw material flavor of the sample even at a low concentration.

This study was performed to examine the effects of electron beam irradiation on volatile flavor components of Shingo pear (Pyrus pyrifolia cv. Niitaka) and on their changes according to storing period following irradiation. Volatile flavor components in pear were extracted using simultaneous steam distillation and extraction (SDE) apparatus and analyzed by GC/MS. 46 components were identified in control whereas 45, 44, 48 and 51 components were identified in irradiated samples by electron beam at 0.25, 0.5, 1, and 3 kGy, respectively. Hexanal, n-hexanol, and (E)-2-hexenal were identified as the major volatile flavor components of all samples. The characteristic volatile flavor components of irradiated pear by electron beam were similar to those of control, and their effects depending on irradiation source were not different. In addition, there was no noticeable change in volatile flavor components of pear with storage at $4^{\circ}C$ for 30 days or with irradiation. Sensory evaluation indicated that the consumer receptiveness tended to be higher at a low level of radiation dose under 1 kGy than control, albeit not significant. Therefore, electron beam irradiation at low level of radiation dose under 1 kGy could be considered as an effective method to exterminate vermin and thus to improve the shelf-stability of pear without deterioration.

The effects of vinegar, alcohol and ascorbic acid on the color, microorganism, sensory properties and flavor pattern of minced ginger (MG) were investigated during storage for 28 days at $30^{\circ}C$. The values of L (lightness), a (redness) and b (yellowness) of the control (T-0) and all the treatments changed slightly at the initial stage of storage, however the elapse of time accelerated the changes. The total bacterial counts of T-0 showed $5.37{\times}10^7\;CFU/g$ at the initial stage, but the MG-treatments decreased the bacteria above 4 log compared to T-0. It was showed that the additives were effective for inhibition of the growth of microorganism. Sensory properties of flavor intensity test showed no significant difference between T-0 and MG-treatments (p < 0.05). The result of volatile flavor contents of electronic nose analyzer (ENZ) showed that MG-treatments (T-I, T-II, T-III) was recognized stronger than non-treatment at the initial stage, but the change of flavor compound were stabilized soon regardless of type or quantity of additives during total storage period at $30^{\circ}C$.

An attempt was made in this study to analyze flavor compounds and investigate storage stability of essential oil from garlic distillation. Optimum ratio of solvent between pentane and dichloromethane to get essential oil from garlic distillation was 2 to 1. The yield of essential oil was 0.35%(w/w) in ground garlic(${\phi}\;0.8mm$) and 0.07%(w/w) in whole garlic. From garlic essential oil six components : dimethyl sulfide, diallyl sulfide, methyl-1-propenyl disulfide, diallyl disulfide, allyl methyl sulfide and diallyl trisulfide were identified with GC and GC/MS, and diallyl trisulfide, diallyl disulfide and allyl mothyl sulfide were found to be major volatile components. Quality deterioration of garlic essential oil hardly occurred during storage for 60 days, at $5^{\circ}C$ and $25^{\circ}C$.

Zanthoxylum schinifolium and Zanthoxylum piperitum A.P. DC. belong to the Rutaceae family and are perennial, aromatic, and medicinal herbaceous plants. In this study, their aroma compounds were isolated by steam distillation extraction using a Clevenger-type apparatus, and then further analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatograph/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The yields of the essential oils from Z. schinifolium and Z. piperitum AP. DC. were 2.5 and 2.0%(w/w), respectively, and the color of their oils was quite similar, a pale yellow. From the distilled oil of Z. schinifolium, 60 volatile compounds which make up 87.24% of the total composition were tentatively identified, with monoterpenes predominating. $\beta$-Phellandrene (22.54%), citronellal (16.48%), and geranyl acetate (11.39%) were the predominantly abundant components of Z. schinifolium. In the essential oil of Z. piperitum AP. DC., 60 volatile flavor components constituted 94.78% of the total peak area were tentatively characterized. Limonene (18.04%), geranyl acetate (15.33%), and cryptone (8.52%) were the major volatile flavor compounds of Z. piperitum A.P. DC.

This study was carried out to find a cholesterol removal rate, flavor development, and bitter amino acid productions in Cheddar cheese treated with -cyclodextrin (${\beta}-CD$): 1) Control (no homogenization, no ${\beta}--CD$), and 2) Milk treatment (1000 psi milk homogenization, 1% ${\beta}-CD$). The cholesterol removal of the cheese were 79.3%. The production of short-chain free fatty acids (FFA) increased with a ripening time in both control and milk treated cheese. The releasing quantity of short-chain FFA was higher din milk treated cheese than control at 5 and 7 mo ripening. Not much difference was found in neutral volatile compounds production between samples. In bitter-tasted amino acids, milk treatment group produced much higher than control. In sensory analysis, texture score of control Cheddar cheese significantly increased, however, that in cholesterol-reduced cheese decreased dramatically with ripening time.
