Microwave-assisted process (2,450MHz), which is known as a more environmental-friendly process with economic advantages than the current extraction methods, was investigated to pre-establish the extraction conditions for soluble ginseng components used for the processing of ginseng products. The extractions of soluble ginseng components showed optimum conditions, such as 60 mesh in particle size, 1 : 10 (g/mL) in the sample to solvent ratio, and less than 100 watts in energy efficiency. Under these conditions using along with 60% ethanol for 5 min, the overall yield of ginseng extracts was about 83%. Most soluble components including saponins were extracted by repeating five times of microwave-assisted extraction.

Volatile flavor components of kochujang made from a glutinuous rice by traditional method were analyzed by using purge and trap method during fermentation, and identified with GC-MSD. Fifty-one volatile components including 19 alcohols, 13 esters, 7 acids, 3 aldehydes, 1 alkanes, 2 ketones, 2 amines, 1 benzene, 1 alkene, 1 phenol and others were found in kochujang made by traditional method. The number of volatile components detected immediately after making kochujang were 22 and increased to 41 components after 30 day of fermentation. The most number 51 of volatile components were found after 120 day of fermentation. Twenty-two volatile components were commonly found through the fermentation period such as acetic acid ethyl ester, ethanol, butanoic acid ethyl ester, 1-butanol, 2-methyl-1-propanol, 3-methyl-1-butanol, butanoic acid and ethenone. Peak area(%) of 1-butanol was the highest one among the volatile components at immediately after mashing while ethanol showed the highest peak area after 30 day of fermentation. Although the various types of peak areas of volatile components were shown in kochujang during the fermentation days, acetic acid-ethyl ester, ethanol, butanoic acid-ethyl ester, 1-butanol, 3-methyl-1-butanol and 2-methyl-1-propanol were mainly detected during fermentation. Those might be the major volatile components in kochujang made by traditional method.

The purpose of this study was to figure out the characteristics of dietary habits and lifestyles related to the development of insulin resistance syndrome(IRS). The participants in this study were 595 adults with one or more abnormal data from a health examination and 215 normal adults. When IRS was defined as a condition in which the subjects have 2 or more abnormalities among obesity, hyperlipidemia, hypertension and hyperglycemia, the prevalence rate was 37.8%. We classified the 595 adults by the number of components of IRS components they had, the higher age and obesity index they had. Total cholesterol and glucose levels in the blood were also positively related to the number of IRS components. IRS subjects tended to practice less habitual drinking and more exercise and weight control. Coffee consumption and dining out frequency were also lower in the IRS group. An analysis of food habits by odds ratio indicated that total food score was better in the IRS group. However, it appeared that food habits such as \"frequent snacking\" and \"never rejecting offered foods\" need to be improved in IRS subjects. Other undesirable food habits were related to the consumption of eggs, dairy products, fried foods, garlic and onion. Dietary intake of Ca, Fe, riboflavin, Vit A, and energy were less than 75% of the Korean recommended allowance for more than half of the subjects. Nutrient intake was lower, Ca/P ratio from food intake was worse in the IRS group. Our results indicated that nutrition counseling for IRS need to be focused on balanced food intake to supply sufficient amount of each nutrient.nt of each nutrient.

Globefish, Fugu xanthopterus, known to have a severe toxin, is one of the favorite food in Korea and Japan when the toxic part is removed. In this paper, the effect of cooking on the composition of nitrogenous components in the extractives from globefish cooked investigated and the changes of the taste compounds originated from the nitrogenous components in the extractives were discussed. When the sample fish was analysed for general composition, drip amount and pH by the different methods of thawing, the method effective method was the running water thawing. Total nitrogen content in raw globefish and the frozen globefish was not different, and the nitrogen content was increased with the heat treatment. It seemed that the nitrogen content was higher in the extract from the boiled globefish than that of the steamed globefish. Taurine, lysine, glycine and alanine were occupied about 70% of the total free amino acids. Total free amino acid content was higher in the extracts from the frozen sample than those from the raw sample. The amount of free amino acids was increased when the globefish soup cooked under the direct-heat cooking than in the microwave oven-heat cooking. Among nucleotides in the extracts from the thawed and cooked fishes, IMP and inosine contents were increased, and the both components were decreased with the heating time and by the heating method. Tne content of total creatinine-nitrogen were 50% of the total nitrogen content of the extracts, but the concentration of glycinebetaine, TMA and TMAO were only a few amounts. It could be concluded that total creatinine components, including free amino acids such as taurine, lysine, glycine and alanine, and IMP might be the important components contributing to the taste of the cooked globefish.
