Objectives : The purpose of this study was to investigate the composition of Rehmannia glutinosa's essential oils with Rehmanniae Radix herbal acupuncture Methods : I obtained the essential oils of Rehmannia Radix by hydrodistillation extraction method and supercritical fluid extraction(SFE) method, and then I analyzed those by GC/MS(gas chromatography/mass spectrum). Results : 1. With GC(gas chromatography) and GC/MS(gas chromatography/mass spectrum) analysis. I identified 9 compounds in the Rehmanniae Radix's essential oil obtained through the SFE method. The main compounds were as follows : Hexachloroethane(2.24%), N-Butyl-benzenesulfonamide(2.05%), hexadecanoic acid(1.93%), hexadecanoic acid, ethyl ester(3.49%), 9,12-Octadecadienoic acid(z,z)(2.70%), (9E)-9-Octadecenoic acid(6.14%), ethyl linoleate(4.43%), ethyl oleate(5.80%). 2. I failed to get Rehmanniae Radix's essential oil obtained through the hydrodistillation method. 3. With GC(gas chromatography) and GC/MS(gas chromatography/mass spectrum) analysis. I identified 4 compounds in the Rehmanniae Radix's essential oil obtained through the hydrodistillation method. The main compounds were as follows : Ethylbis(trimethylsilyl)amine(1.04%), 2-(Trimethylsiloxy)benzoic methyl ester(2.65%), Hexadecanoic acid trimethylsilyl ester(12.61%), octadecanoic acid, trimethylsilyl ester(6.28%).

This study investigated the chemical composition of Cirsium japonicum var. ussurience Kitamura essential oil and the quantitative changes of major volatile flavor compounds according to the harvesting season. The essential oils obtained by the method of hydrodistillation extraction from aerial parts of C. japonicum var. ussurience Kitamura were analyzed by GC and GC-MS. Sixty-four volatile flavor compounds were identified in the essential oil from C. japonicum var. ussurience Kitamura harvested in May 2012; hexadecanoic acid (49.31%) was the most abundant compound, followed by 6,10,14-trimethyl-2-pentadecanone (13.72%), phytol (13.40%) and 9-hexadecenoic acid (4.16%). Eighty-three compounds were identified in the essential oil from the plant harvested in October 2012; phytol (40.56%), hexadecanoic acid (17.69%), 6,10,14-trimethyl-2-pentadecanone (13.71%), and caryophyllene oxide (4.15%) were the most abundant compounds.

Cellular fatty acid composition of eight strains, indluding six strains of Comamonas terrigena, and two type strains of Pseudomonas acidovorans, and P. testosteroni was determined by gas-liquid chromatography. Almost the same composition was found in all the strains tested, and hexadecanoic acid, hexadecenoic acid, and octadecenoic acid were accounted more than 70% of total fatty acid. However, P. testosteroni differed from C. terrigena and P. acidovorans by the presence of comparatively large amonuts of 2-hydroxy-hexadecanoic acid, and C. terrigena contained three to eight times as much tetradecanoic acid in P. acidovorans and P. testosteroni. According to the similarity values calculated on the basis of fatty acid composition, C. terrigena strains were divided into three groups differentiated in the requirement of growth factors, and C. terrigena, P. acidovorans, and P. testosteroni strains occupied separate position each other in the dendrogram.

This study investigated the volatile flavor composition of essential oils from Solidago virga-aurea var. asiatica Nakai with different harvesting area. The essential oils obtained by the hydrodistillation extraction method from the aerial parts of the plants were analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) and GC-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Ninety-five (91.61%) volatile flavor compounds were identified in the essential oils from the S. virga-aurea var. asiatica Nakai harvested in Koheung, Jeolanamdo. The major compounds were hexadecanoic acid (29.22%), 7-hexyl eicosane (9.12%), spathulenol (7.701%), 3,8-dimethyl decane (6.48%), caryophyllene oxide (4.52%) and α-copaene (4.23%). Fifty-seven (97.43%) volatile flavor compounds were identified in the essential oils from the S. virga-aurea var. asiatica Nakai harvested in Seoguipo, Jejudo. The major compounds were 2-carene (40.95%), α-copaene (10.77%), α-muurolene (5.81%), and spathulenol (3.11%). The chemical composition of the essential oils was significantly different in quality and quantity with the different harvesting area. The quantitative variations of hexadecanoic acid, 7-hexyl eicosane, spathulenol, 3,8-dimethyl decane, caryophyllene oxide, 2-carene, and α-copaene according to different harvesting area can serve as a quality index of the S. virga-aurea var. asiatica Nakai essential oils in food industries.

Antimicrobial activity of Sancho (Zanthoxylum schinifolium) was investigated. Methanol extract of dried Sancho was fractionated to hexane, chloroform, ethylacetate, butanol, and aqueous fractions. Chloroform fraction among these fractions showed the highest inhibitory effect on the microorganisms such as Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus and Lactobacillus plantarum at 1000 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$. Chloroform fraction was further fractionated into 4 fractions by silica gel column and thin layer chromatography (TLC). The fraction 3 on TLC exhibited the highest antimicrobial activity. In the 2nd fractionation, subfration 2 was identified as hexadecanoic acid by MS, $^1$H-NMR and IR.

Oil was extracted from cashew nuts. The physicochemical parameters of the oil were determined. A chromatographic assay of the oil was carried out using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry. Seventeen compounds were detected: Phenol, Phenol 2-methyl-, Cyclohexene 4, 4-dimethyl-, m-Fluoro-2-diazoacetophenone 4-dimethyl-, Tetradecanoic acid, Phenol 4-octyl-, n-Hexadecanoic acid. Others are 9, 12-Octadecadienoic acid (Z, Z) - methyl ester, Hexadecanoic acid methyl ester, Methyl stearate, Dodecanoic acid methyl ester, 9, 12, 15-Octadecatrienoic acid methyl ester, 9, 12, 15-Octadecatrienoic acid (Z, Z, Z)-, Oleic acid, Octadecanoic acid, Tetracosanoic acid and 9-Octadecenoic acid methyl ester. Among the components are omega three and omega six essential free fatty acids. The rheological profiling and flow properties of cashew nut oil were determined using a Programmable Rheometer. Cashew nut oil exhibits slight dilatant behaviour at the low end of shear rate. The long chain and high molecular weight of its constituents controlled its rheology. Long-chained 9-Octadecenoic acid methyl ester, 9, 12-Octadecadienoic acid (Z, Z) - methyl ester, Tetracosanoic acid and methyl stearate, coupled with their high molecular weights are responsible for the shear thickening effect observed. Two models, Carreau-Yasuda and Ostwald-de Waele Power Law were employed to fit the rheological data. The Carreau-Yasuda model followed well the data.

The aroma concentrates from mold fermented sausages were isolated by steam distillation and simultaneous steam-distillation-extraction(SDE). methods. Quantitative estimation of the aroma concentrates in mold fermented sausages was carried out by using GC-MC. Mold fermented sausages were manufactured into two types. The first was manufactured with starter culture containing Lactobacillus plantarum and Staphylococcus carnosus(LP). The second was manufactured with starter culture containing L. curvatus and S. carnosus(LC). The aroma concentrates containing hexanoic acid and 2-butyl-2-octenal were identified in mold fermented sausages immediately after manufacture. After 28 days, the volatile flavor components from LP and LC were determined to be 14 (trimethylsilylester of hexadecanoic acid and 2-methyl-3-octanol, etc.) and 16 substances(hexadecanoic acid and 1-hexadecanol, etc.), respectively. The distribution of aroma concentrates in LP and LC was different, but their panel test placed them in similarity.

The volatile flavor compounds of the essential oils from Ixeris dentate (Thunb.) Nakai and I. stolonifera A. Gray were investigated. The essential oils were extracted by hydro distillation extraction method. Ninety-three volatile flavor components were identified from I. dentate (Thunb.) Nakai essential oil. Hexadecanoic acid(33.73%) was the most abundant compound, followed by (Z,Z,Z,)-9,12,15-octadecatrienoic acid(18.59%), 6,10,14-trimethyl-2-pentadecanonel(10.39%) and phytol(5.21%). Ninety-seven volatile flavor components were identified from the essential oil of I. stolonifera A. Gray. Hexadecanoic acid was the most abundant component(39.7%), followed by (Z,Z,Z)-9,12,15-octadecatrienoic acid(12.63%), 9,12-octadecadienoic acid, ethyl ester(12.36%), pentacosane(5.2%) and 6,10,14-trimethyl-2-pentadecanone(3.18%). The volatile composition of I. dentate (Thunb.) Nakai was characterized by higher contents of phytol and phthalides than those of I. stolonifera A. Gray. The volatile flavor composition of I. stolonifera A. Gray can easily be distinguished by the percentage of sesquiterpene compounds against I. dentate (Thunb.) Nakai essential oil.
