Volatile compounds of porcine liver were collected by simultaneous steam distillation and extraction and steam distillation under reduced pressure. Volatiles were analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) and GC-mass spectrometry. Key aroma compounds of off-flavor in porcine liver were characterized using GC-olfactometry technique. Concentrates of cooked porcine liver had odor of a typical liver, fishy, and metallic off-flavor. Aroma concentrates showed over 90 peaks, of which 69 compounds were positively and/or tentatively identified. 1-Octen-3-one, 1-hexanol, (E)-2-nonenal, (Z)-4-decenal, (E,E)-2,4-heptadienal and (E,E)-2,4-decadienal were newly identified in this study. These compounds seem to be produced from unsaturated fatty acids of porcine liver by oxidation. 1-Octen-3-one (metallic), 1-hexanol (metallic) and (E,E)-2,4-heptadienal(fishy) have been implicated in fishy and metallic off-flavor in cooked porcine liver.

The aim of this study was to determine the effects of sous-vide cooking temperature on the triceps brachii of black goats. Triceps brachii of black goats (12 months) were sous-vide cooked at 55℃, 60℃, and 65℃. The samples were examined for color, scanning electron microscope photographs, sarcomere length, fiber cross-sectional area, cooking yield, shear force, sensory evaluation, and aromatic profile. The results showed that CIE a^*, CIE b^*, and chroma increased with increasing sous-vide cooking temperature. However, the cooking yield significantly decreased with increasing sous-vide cooking temperature, and the shear forces of the 60℃ and 65℃ samples showed no significant differences. For sensory evaluation, the 60℃ sample showed the highest scores for flavor, texture, and off-flavor. Furthermore, the 60℃ sample showed the significantly lowest value of octadienone (aroma characteristics of metallic) intensity (p<0.05). Therefore, sous-vide cooking of triceps brachii of black goats at 60℃ is effective in reducing off-flavor and improving tenderness.

Headspace solid-phase microextraction(HS-SPME) was used to isolate the off-flavor volatile compounds, which are formed during the oxidation of porcine liver and unsaturated fatty acids in porcine liver induced by iron. Three fibers for HS-SPME method development were tested, and the polydimethylsiloxane/divinylbenzene(PDMS/DVB) fiber was selected as providing the best detection of analyzed compounds. In the oxidized arachidonic acid, the major compounds identified were hexanal, 1-octen-3-one(metallic), (Z)-4-heptenal, (E)-2-octenal, 1-octen-3-ol(mushroom), (Z)-2-nonenal (cardboard-like), and (E,E)-2,4-decadienal(fatty, oily). In the oxidized linolenic acid, the major ones were (E,E)-2,4-heptadienal(fishy), (E,E)-3,5-octadien-2-one and (E,Z)-2,6-nonadienal. Moreover, those of th oxidized porcine liver with iron were hexanal, 1-octen-3-one, (Z)-4-heptenal, (E,Z)-2,4-decadienal and (E,E)-2,4-decadienal. These results showed that the fishy and metallic off-flavor in porcine liver were due to the oxidation of unsaturated fatty acids in porcine liver.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the change of volatile compounds in Dakgalbi cooked by charcoal broiling. Fresh deboned and marinated chicken meat was cooked by electric-pan frying or charcoal broiling and subsequently irradiated with a dose of 0, 10 and 20 kGy. Volatile components from Dakgalbi were analyzed using solid phase micro-extraction gas chromatography - mass spectrometry (SPME GC-MS) and identified through the comparison of mass spectrum database. SPME GC-MS analysis shows that a total of 32 volatiles were identified. Among them, aldehydes such as hexanal and octanal, which have relevance to off-flavors such as green, paint, metallic, bean and rancid were detected in Dakgalbi cooked by both methods. However, the contents were less detected in the Dakgalbi cooked by charcoal broiling than in the Dakgalbi cooked by electric-pan frying. Gamma-irradiation caused the change in the formation of these aldehydes in cooked Dakgalbi. The irradiation significantly increased the contents of hexanal and octanal in Dakgalbi cooked by electric-pan frying and a similar increase was found in Dakgalbi cooked by charcoal broiling. However, the contents of the off-flavors were much less in the latter. The results suggest that charcoal broiling might be more effective than electric-pan frying for the reduction of the contents of off-flavor such as hexanal and octanal increased in Dakgalbi by gamma-irradiation.

This study was conducted to determine the relative saltiness of $MgCl_2,\;K_{2}SO_4$ and KCl and evaluate the sensory characteristics of solutions and Kakdugi (Korean seasoned pickles of cubed radish roots) prepared with reduced amount of sodium chloride by replacement with varying levels of KCI. The relative saltiness of $MgCl_2$ and $K_{2}SO_4$, were $0.11{\sim}0.12(0.115)$ and $0.08{\sim}0.09(0.085)$ respectively, at the reference level of 0.5% NaCl. The relative saltiness of KCI varied from 0.52 to 0.76 as the reference level increased from 0.5 to 2.0% NaCl. The result of sensory evaluation on the mixed solutions of NaCl and KCI indicated that bitterness, metallic flavor and astringency increased with the increased levels of KCI. The addition of KCI slightly increased the firmness of kakdugi but there was no significant difference in firmness by the amount of substitution. Bitterness and off-flavor was enhanced with the increased levels of replacement especially when the level was higher than 50%. Saltiness, sourness and overall desirability decreased as the extent of the replacement increased. There were no significant difference in pH, acidity and firmness measured with Universal Testing Machine. The result of this study indicate that the replacement of NaCl with KCI at not more than 50% does not affect greatly the characteristics of kakdugi.
