Seasonal variation in the contents of sugars (fructose, glucose, and sucrose) in the floret, leaf, and stem of broccoli were studied in ten commercial broccoli cultivars. Plants were grown in the spring and fall seasons in 2011. In both seasons, glucose was the major constituent, comprising about 50% of the total sugar content in the floret and leaf tissue of most cultivars, whereas the broccoli stem showed an unusual pattern of accumulation. Sucrose exhibited greater cultivar dependency as well as seasonal variation compared to fructose and glucose in floret and leaf tissues. The floret tissue had a higher total content of sugar in the spring compared to the fall due to an increase in glucose and fructose. However, most of the leaf and stem tissues of broccoli had a higher total sugar content in the fall compared to the spring. Furthermore, stem and leaf tissues possessed a relatively higher total sugar content compared to floret tissue in both seasons. 'Grandeur' broccoli contained a significantly greater amount of total sugar in both floret and leaf tissues in both seasons, whereas 'YuDoRi No.1' broccoli exhibited the highest total content of sugar in stem tissue. At overall, the results showed significant influences of genotype, plant part and growing season on sugar content in broccoli.

The quality of concentrated red ginseng extract, which was prepared from Korean red ginseng tails, was studied with respect to the changes in the ethanol concentration in the range of 0-90% and temperature of 70-10$0^{\circ}C$ during 1-5 times of extraction. Each extraction time was taken 8 hours at given temperature. The ratio of free sugars to total sugar changed significantly with the number of extraction and ethanol concentrations. An increase in reducing sugar and free sugars and a decrease in extracted soluble starch were fond as ethanol concentration increased. Extraction temperature was found little effect on extractability of sugars and their ratios. Analysis of free sugars in red ginseng extract identified 6 frdd sugars such as rhamnose, xylose, fructose, glucose, sucrose and maltose, including sucrose to be major.

The effect of homobrassinolide (HBL) on the nutrient value of Curcuma longa L. (turmeric) rhizome grown in Nizamabad, Telangana State, India was studied. Application of homobrassinolide (HBL) as foliar spray to turmeric plants on the 20^th, 40^th and 60^th day from sowing resulted in enhanced chemical composition of turmeric rhizome. Application of homobrassinolide (HBL) resulted in enhanced total sugars, principal ingredient curcumin, total poly phenol content, total flavonoid content, total tannin content, crude fat, crude fibre and essential oils (turmerone, zingiberene, cineole and p-cymene) present in the turmeric rhizome indicating the ability of homobrassinolide (HBL) as a potential plant growth regulator (PGR).

As recently many studies on the relationship between excessive sugar intake and chronic disease have been reported across the world, more attention to sugar intake has been paid. Sugars, called simple sugars, is a kind of carbohydrate and sum of monosaccharides and disaccharides. Sugars that are particularly related to health are added sugars or free sugars, which are added to food by processing or cooking. It is generally not to give satiety and increases energy density without other nutrients. Especially, the major food source of added sugar is sugar-sweetened beverages(SSBs), from which sugars are closely linked with health outcome. The total sugar intake in Korea is 61.4 g per day and it is almost half of those in the western countries such as the U.S. or Australia and it is within the recommendation level by the Dietary Reference Intakes for Koreans. However, when it is classified by age groups or food sources, sugar intake in adolescents and young adults are high and the sugar from processed foods is also high that would lead to high intake levels of added sugar. Particularly, the frequency of SSBs, the major food source of added sugar, is the highest among 20's. While the studies of excessive sugar intake with chronic diseases including obesity, type 2 diabetes, metabolic disease, cardiovascular disease reported in the Western populations, those in the Korean populations have just started. Given our dietary practice is very different from those in the western population, more prospective studies would be necessary to evaluate sugar intake by type or food source exactly and examine its relationship with chronic diseases in the Korean population.

Characteristics of six commercial samjangs were analyzed such as proximate composition, free amino acids, organic acids and free sugars. Also color, taste and odor were evaluated by 36 panelists. They were composed of moisture content 41.4-48.4%, crude protein 9.2-10.4%, crude fat 2.2-3.4%, pH 5.3-5.7, amino nitrogen 194.0%-375.6 mg% and sodium chloride 7.7-9.1%. Total free amino acids of samjangs were 975.89-2304.98 mg%. Glutamic acid was the highest amino acid among free amino acids as 231.7-788.01 mg%. Proline, arginine, alanine and lysine were higher than other free amino acids while histidine, cystine and methionine were lower than other. Eleven free amino acids including glutamic acid were the highest in samjang (B) which contained more doenjang than any other makers did. Total organic acids were 401.01-640.27 mg%. 69.65-269.07 mg% of succinic acid was the highest among organic acids. Lactic acid was the highest in samjang (F) which was home made. Total free sugars was the highest in samjang (A) which contained more wheat flour than any other makers did it. Glucose was 9.30-23.99% and fructose was nd-2.69%. The result of proximate composition showed a different pattern comparing with that sensory evaluation. Samjang (A) which contained less salt showed the highest overall acceptability while samjang (F) which contained more dark color, more salt was the lowest one among the samples.

This thesis is to analyze the ingredients of five-fruit tea depending on extraction time as a basic experiment for quality improvement and industrialization of traditional Korean beverage. According to extraction time, the acidity of the tea is 2.4% at 30 minutes, 2.3% at 50 minutes and 1.7% at 70 minutes, and soluble solid is 0.22 g, 0.31 g and 0.41 g. The pH of five-fruit tea, which is 4.70, 4.85 and 4.98 at each time, and total sugar is 54.01 m9, 108.82 m9 and 142.92 mg as extraction time increases. The total amount of free sugars is 1.14 mg, 1.36 mg and 2.17 mg, and glucose, surcose and fructose which are 98.2%, 92.6% and 92.6% of the whole percentage occupy the most part of free sugars. The total free amino acids content increases to 84.94 mg, 99.67 mg and 120.40 mg. The five kinds of amino acids like serine, glutamic acid, threonine, proline and alanine amount to 94.5%, 93.6% and 94.7% at all. she variation in the percentage of free amino acids content in accordance with extraction time is as follows : threonine, extracted for 50 minutes, is reduced considerably and glutamic acid decreases gradually as extraction time increases. When proline is extracted for 50 minutes, it's rate of increase Is most high.

This investigation was designed to determine the influence of drying methods on the free amino acids and free sugars in red pepper and to study the browning mechanism of brown-colored red pepper. Three different drying methods were employed: 1) Sun-drying at $25{\sim}28^{\circ}C$ for 15 days, 2) Drying in oven at $60^{\circ}C$ for 49 hours, and 3) Drying in oven at $90^{\circ}C$ for 8 hours. Dried and ground peels were used for the analysis of free amino acids and free sugars. The results were as follows; 1. Sixteen kinds of amino acids i.e. asparagine, methionine, and cystine etc. were identified. Total amino acid content of the sun-dried sample was not different from that of the fresh sample, but the samples dried at $60^{\circ}C$ and $90^{\circ}C$ in the oven were decreased to 24.9% and 67.4% respectively. Of amino acids identified, methionine, lysine and aspartic acid were decreased in all treatments. Especially, methionine ana aspartic acid were decreased rapidly to 71.8% and 73.3% , respectively. 2. Three kinds of free sugars i.e. glucose, fructose and sucrose were identified. The total content of free sugars was significantly decreased in each treatment. Among the reducing sugars, glucose was rapidly decreased; 65.9% for the glucose of sample dried at $90^{\circ}C$ in the oven. 3. At the higher drying temperature, the darker red color was found. Brown-color appeared at $90^{\circ}C-drying$ showed appreciable losses in carotenoid content, but the major color seems to be due to the large increase in browning compounds. 4. It was assumed that increased browning compounds of red pepper were due to the Maillard reaction which is a nonenzymatic browning process.
