Chicken surimi from mechanically deboned chicken meat was prepared with 0.2% oleoresin spices such as rosemary, thyme, sage, mace, marjoram, and bay. Samples were stored at -18$\^{C}$ for 14 weeks to observe quality change including lipid oxidation, color and textural properties. The pH of surimi decreased from pH 7.44∼7.58 stored at 1 day to pH 7.03∼7.13 stored at 14 weeks. The control surimi showed higher level of pH during storage periods. Color stabiilty of surimi decreased during frozen storage both in control and oleoresin added surimi. Control surimi comparatively maintained higher color stability during frozen storage because of higher L* and a* values, and lower b*. On the contrary, the marjoram addition significantly decreased L* and a* value, and increased b* value compared with other oleoresins. Therefore, the color of surimi seems to be affected original color of oleoresin spice itself. Gel strength showed loser level in oleoresin added surimi than control surimi. Oleoresin spices inhibited lipid oxidation significantly because less thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance(TBARS) were accumulated in oleoresin added surimi than control surimi. Sage was the most effective in minimizing lipid oxidation in frozen surimi as TBARS of sage added surimi stored for 14 weeks maintained only 42% compared with that of control. In conclusion, the 6 kinds of oleoresin in this experiment retarded oxidative rancidity in chicken surimi but there was no beneficial effect on the surface color and gel strength.

We used fluorescence detector to analyse total aflatoxins (G1, G2, B1, B2) with TFA (Trifluoroacetic acid) derivation method and PHRED (Photochemical reactor enhanced detection) method. PHRED method was superior in reproduction and convenience, but TFA derivation method was superior in selectivity and sensitivity. The recovery rate of aflatoxin B1, B2, G1 were more than 80%, and G2 was more than 70%. The detection limit of B1, B2, G1 and G2 were respectively 0.05, 0.05, 0.2 and $0.1\;{\mu}g/kg$. Confirmed method was used to analyse total aflatoxins in total 316 items as 9 kinds 137 dried fruits and 10 kinds 179 spices. By the result, Aflatoxins were detected in 27 dried fruits (19.7%) and in 87 spices (48.6%).

The superoxide dismutase(SOD)-like activities for 26 kinds of herbs and spices and 10 kinds of instant curry products were determined by measuring their abilites to reduce nitroblue tetrazolium. All samples showed the SOD-like activities. Rosemary, cassia, tarragon, allspice, oregano, bay leaves, basil, marjoram, thyme and star anise had higher activities than $10^5\;unit/g$ and clove had highest activity of $232,143{\pm}19.989\;unit/g$. The SOD-like activities for 10 kinds of instant curry products were in the range of $400{\sim}700\;unit/g$ when measured after heat treatment at $100^{\circ}C$ for 10 min. The water extracts of spices, herbs and curries were obtained by heat treatments of $25^{\circ}C$ for 60 min or $100^{\circ}C$ for 10 min, and their nitrite scavenging activity was measured at different pH conditions(1.2, 4.2 or 6.0). The nitrite scavenging activities were higher at acidic pH. However, the effects were not different from two heat treatments. The water extracts from cassia, bay leaves, allspices, oregano, staranise, rosemary, clove and tarragan had high nitrite scavenging activity(>90%) when they were measured at pH 1.2, and those from clove was highest $(97.58{\pm}0.88%)$. The pure curry used as raw materials for instant curry products had the nitrite scavenging activity in the range of $50{\sim}60%$ at pH 1.2 and the activity was not changed during the aging period$(0{\sim}12weeks)$. The ten brands of instant curry products had the nitrite scavenging activities of $12{\sim}28%$ at pH 1.2

Accumulated photon counts in immediate measurement after irradiation of marjoram, basil and thyme were shown to be below 625$\pm$162, 577$\pm$178 and 1261$\pm$640 Pc, respectively. The accumulated photon counts increased linearly with increasing irradiation doses up to 5 kGy and slightly increased from 5 kGy to 10 kGy. This trend was similar after storage periods. According to storage conditions, the difference of the accumulated photon counts was net clearly observed. The accumulated photon counts of irradiated spice samples decreased with increasing storage periods. The rate of decrease was higher in 5 and 10 kGy irradiated samples than that in 1 kGy, and in room conditions than that in darkroom conditions. The photon counts of the irradiated spice samples measured for 120 s were higher than those measured for 60 s. The irradiated spice samples showed higher photon counts than those of unirradiated samples in both room and darkroom conditions during all the storage periods. These results indicate that detection of irradiation was still possible after 24 weeks, although the PPSL signal of all spice samples decreased with increasing storage times.

PALFAZE is one of ZE. ZE is One of the Chinese Sause. Especially PALFAZE is made from eight materials and used for the slices raw fish or raw meat. At first ZE was made from pickled vegitables that minced, or added vineger, some spices. But later when the garic-growing was spreaded it was changed to be made from minced garic, ginger mixed in vineger or added some spices, starch. Especially PALFAZE is made from garic, ginger, salt, vineger, mamanufactured plum, dried orange rind, boild chestnut, boiled rice.

Recently, consumer's demand for natural preservatives is increasing because of residual toxicity, mutagenicity and etc. of synthetic preservatives and th study of natural preservatives is being done. In this study, antimicrobial activity of spices was investigated. Fungi occurred in bread and d noodle without mustard after 3days and 4days, respectively. However, they didn't occured in bread and noodle with mustard ball. Temperature of the water used in mixing-up mustard powder didn't affect antimicrobial activity of mustard. Fungi occurred in bread with cinnamon, Japanese pepper or horseradish after 4days, 4days or 6days, respectively. However, there wasn't the occurrence of fungi in bread with mustard after 8days, yet. Mustard and horseradish of extracts by water of spices had a strong antimicrobial activity. But the extracts by ethanol had 1ow antimicrobial activity.

The purpose of this work was to study the effect of roasting temperature on the production of volatile compounds in Chinese-style pork jerky. The pork jerky was roasted by far-infrared grill at $150^{\circ}C$ or $200^{\circ}C$ for 5 min. The analysis of volatile compounds using a Likens-Nickerson apparatus coupled to a gas chromatograph and a mass spectrometer enabled us to identify 21 volatile compounds. The results showed that the volatile compounds coming from pork jerky can be divided into two groups in accordance with their possible origins. The first group of volatile compounds derived from oxidation of lipid included hexanal, ethylbenzene, nonanal, benzaldehyde, 2,4-decadienal, 1-octen-3-ol, octadecanal, and 9-octadecenal. The second group of volatile compounds generated from degradation of natural spices included 1,8-cinene, 4-terpineol, ${\alpha}$-terpineol, e-anethole, methyl-eugenol, panisaldehyde, elemol, eugenol, methyl-isoeugenol and myristicin. Significant differences (p<0.05) were found between 2 different roasted temperatures at levels for all volatile compounds.

This study was performed to investigate antimicrobial effects and their actions of the ethanol extracts of 12 spices against Lactobacillus plantarum and Leuconostoc mesenteroides, which are related to Kimchi fermentation. The cardamon, thyme, and cumin ethanol extracts among 12 spices showed antimicrobial activities against Lac. plantarum, not against Leu. mesenteroides through paper disc method. The growth of Lac. plantarum was inhibited in MRS broth containing each extracts of cardamon (>4%), thyme (>4%) and cumin (>1%). SDS-PAGE and transmission electron micrographs showed that the cell walls and membranes were disrupted and the cytoplasmic components were leaked in strains treated with ethanol extracts.
