In this study, we evaluated black pepper seed and white pepper seed for the following compounds: piperine content was determined by HPLC, and volatile oil content was determined via the Soxhlet method in before/after heat-treated samples, and total volatile material contents were determined via the SDE(Linkens-Nikens type simultaneous steam distillation and extraction apparatus) method. As a result, differences were noted in the black and white pepper seeds according to the constituent components, growing district, and whether the species was indigenous to Indonesia or India. We concluded that the differences in taste were attributable to the differences in the volatile material contents in black and white peppers. We also assessed these three determination results, and found that they were directly correlated. The volatile oil contents were determined by the Soxhlet method, which was a rapid, simple, and accurate method. We concluded that this method should prove to be an effective determination method in the quality control of black and white peppers.

Agricultural soil samples collected from 121 sites (plastic film house 59, up-land 30 and orchard 32 sites) were evaluated by steam distillation and GLC-ECD analysis for organochlorine pesticides (${\gamma}-BHC$, heptachlor, p,p'-DDE, dieldrin, p,p'-DDD, and p,p'-DDT) in Jeollanam-Do area. Total residues of organochlorine pesticide in orchard, plastic film house and up-land were 0.415, 0.234 and 0.156ppm, respectively. Ninety-four percent of total residue was p,p'-DDT and its homologues (p,p'-DDE and p,p'-DDD). ${\gamma}-BHC$ was detected in all soil samples at $trace{\sim}0.050ppm$ range. Residue levels of organochlorine pesticide increased in the order of p,p'-DDE, ${\gamma}-BHC$, heptachlor, dieldrin, p,p'-DDT and p,p'-DDD.

Allelopathic activity of the volatiles from leaves of Perilla frutescens an Artemisia asiatica was determined on the basis of bioassay, which tested germination and seedling growth of radish, rice, mung bean and lettuce. Seedling growth was more inhibited by phytotoxic volatiles than germination. Volatile components collected by headspace cold trapping-Tenax GC adsorption were analyzed by GC-MS. Fifteen volatile components in P. frutescens and 15 components in A. asiatica were identified. By steam distillation-extraction, 4 flavor components in P. frutescens and 10 components in A. asiatica were identified. The inhibitory activity of the fractions, obtained by steam distillation-extraction, was determined by virtue of bioassay on radish. Volatile allelochemicals of the most active fraction, neutral fraction, isolated from P. frutescens contained 9 components. In A. asiatica, 24 volatile allelochemicals were identified.

This investigation was primarily carried out to establish the optimum conditions for the separation of sorbic acid, as an enzyme inhibitor, from dry mountain ash berries. The berries were crushed to $35{\sim}40\;mesh$, and leached with water to produce a reddish juice, which was concentrated to syrup after evaporation. Parasorbic acid was separated from the syrup by steam distillation in the presence of acid. In this study, the optimum experimental results for separation of parasorbic acid were obtained as follows : (1) the most applicable leaching time of the dry ash berries was about 6 hours at room temperature and less than 4 hours at $40^{\circ}C$ and (2) in steam distillation, after removal of malic acid, addition of 30 ml of sulfuric acid per 50 ml of syrup extracted from 100 g of the ash berries was very adequate. The purity of sorbic acid obtained experimentally through the isomerization technique was qualitatively examined by spectrophotometeric, paper chromatographic, and melting point measurements.

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.

Volatile flavor compounds of Chamaecyparis obtuse essential oil were extracted by simultaneous steam distillation extraction (SDE) and supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) and analyzed by GC-MS. A total of 48 and 50 components were identified in essential oil by SDE and SFE, respectively. Monoterpenes, oxygenated monoterpenes, sesquiterpenes, oxygenated sesquiterpenes, and diterpenes in essential oil by SDE were 37.24, 10.9, 9.61, 0.22, and 0.22%, respectively. In the case of SFE, they were 19.1, 23.3, 22.66, 1.31, and 10.57%, respectively. Antioxidant activities were increased with the increase of essential oil up to $80{\mu}L/mL$, irrespective of extraction method. Especially, when the essential oil concentration extracted by SDE was increased from 20 to $80{\mu}L/mL$, the antioxidant activity was increased from 10.5 to 55.1%. However, over $80{\mu}L/mL$ of essential oil, an equilibrium state was maintained. In the case of essential oil extracted by SFE, it was decreased compared to that of SDE. For the improvement of atopic dermatitis, various cosmetics such as an ato-cide soap, ato-cide spray, and ato-cide lotion containing essential oil extracted by SFE were tested. About over 90% was useful for the improvement of atopic dermatitis after 4 weeks of clinical trial targeting 40 female adults. These results demonstrate that ato-cide soap, ato-cide spray, and ato-cide lotion containing essential oil extracted by SFE could be used in functional cosmetics.

The purpose of this study was to analyse the volatile components of Thymus magnus Nakai extracted by different extraction methods and reproduce scent close to original plant based on the results. For this purpose, the essential oil of T. magnus was extracted by supercritical fluid extraction (SFE), water and steam distillation (WSD) and simultaneous steam distillation and extraction (SDE) methods. The compositions of the essential oil were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Consequently, linalool (0.1%) and trans-sabinene hydrate (0.9%) contents in the essential oil extracted by SFE method of $40^{\circ}C$ - 400 bar condition were relatively higher than compositions of the essential oil extracted by different conditions. The contents of borneol (3.82%), terpinen-4-ol (0.3%) and caryophyllene oxide (2.2%) were relatively higher at $50^{\circ}C$ - 400 bar and the contents of ${\beta}$-bisabolene (5.88%), 1-octen-3-ol (0.31%), caryophyllene (2.91%), p-cymene (2.04%) and ${\gamma}$-terpinene (0.52%) were extracted relatively higher at $50^{\circ}C$ - 300 bar. The compositions of the essential oil extracted by SFE method of $50^{\circ}C$ - 200 bar condition contained relatively higher contents of thymol (77.63%) and carvacrol (5.65%). The contents of ${\alpha}$-bisabolol (0.17%), caryophyllene (6.46%), cis-${\alpha}$-bisabolene (1.52%) and ${\beta}$-bisabolene (20.65%) in the essential oil extracted by WSD method were relatively higher than compositions of the essential oil extracted by SFE method, and by SDE method we couldn't obtained essential oil. The results of this study could be utilized to reproduce scent close to original scent of T. magnus.
