Volatile aromatic compounds collected from raw and roasted mugwort (Artemisia asictica nakai) leaves by the Tenax trap and some major volatile compounds were separated and identified by GC-MS. The identified compounds were tested for the antimutagenic and mutagenic activities against aflatoxin B$_1$(AFB$_1$) using their authentic compounds. Six compounds (myrcene, cineole, camphor, caryophyllen, coumarin, and farnesol) showed antimutagenic activities, but 2-pyrrolidine and thujone showed mutagenic activities. 1-Acetylpiperidine formed during roasting mugwort leaves exhibited mutagenic activities. When the mutagens and antimutagens were mixed, the mixture reduced the mutagenicity of AFB$_1$. These results suggested that the extract of mugwort leaves is not mutagenic and so the mugwort leaves might be used as a food and as medicinal sources without mutagenicity.

This study was carried out to find the possibility of use of Solid Phase Microextraction (SPME) for extracting the volatile aroma compounds in the five aromatic plants (Agastache rugosa O. Kuntze, Mentha arvensis Linne, Thymus quinquecostatus Celakovsky, Elsholtzia splendens Nakai, Schizonepta tenuifolia Briquet) belongs to the Labiatae. In the result of the analysis, the volatile aroma compounds were mainly composed monoterpene alcohol (linanol, menthol, ${\alpha}-terpineol$, borneol), monoterpene ketone (limonene, menthone) and sesquiterpene (trans-caryophyllene,${\delta}-cadinene)$. The volatile aroma compounds of Agastache rugosa O. Kuntze and Mentha arvensis Linne were extracted by SPME more identified than the SDE. However, Schizonepta tenuifolia Briquet more identified by the SDE and in Elsholtzia splendens Nakai similar to the SDE. Especially, the SPME showed the sesquiterpene contents was more than the SDE. The major volatile aroma compounds were difference but the composition of those between the SPME and the SDE showed no difference. Within the results, the SPME showed the most convenient and a rapid extraction method to analysis of the volatile aroma compounds.

In the present work, the distribution characteristics of ambient volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were investigated at high temporal resolution from a monitoring station located in a mid-eastern area of Seoul. A total number of 587 samples were collected during December 2002 to January 2003. The measurements of VOC were conducted by a combination of on-line air sampling and thermal desorption unit (TDU) coupled with capillary GC/FID analysis. A total of five aromatic compounds (BTEX: benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, m, p-xylene, and o-xylene) were measured routinely at hourly intervals during the whole study period. The mean concentrations of BTEX measured in our study period were found in the order: toluene (8.99 $\pm$5.38 ppb) > benzene (0.92$\pm$0.52 ppb) > m, p-xylene (0.51$\pm$0.34 ppb) > 0- xylene (0.48$\pm$0.35 ppb) > ethyl benzene (0.43$\pm$ 0.32 ppb). The BTEX concentrations were generally higher during the daytime than the nighttime, exhibiting certain patterns on a weekly basis. Results of our analysis indicate that the unusually high concentrations of toluene, while showing good correlations with other VOCs, can be a good indicator of air pollution in the study area.

Maillard reaction flavors had been tried by using krill hydrolysate and precursors in order to develop Teriyaki sauce with the reaction flavors. Also, the study for applying krill to Teriyaki sauce had been tried by using krill instead of eel bones. To make boiled-type and grilled-type reaction flavors, krill hydrolysate was used with other precursors such as serine, glucose and glucosamine. In the dynamic analysis of headspace volatile compounds, 20 mL reaction flavor was analyzed by the combined system of purge & trap, automatic desorber, gas chromatography and mass selective detector. Three kinds of Teriyaki sauce were developed with reaction flavor, krill and eel bones, and their products were evaluated by 10 items of cooked vegetables, cooked potatoes, boiled shrimp, grilled shrimp, fishy smell, pungent aroma, burned smell, sweety aroma, chemical smell, mud smell and preference. In the results of headspace analysis, 35 and 33 volatile compounds were identified from grilled-type and boiled-type reaction flavors. Grilled-type had sulfur-containing, aliphatic compounds, alcohols, ketones, pyrazines, and other aromatic compounds, and grilled-type had aldehydes, furans, other nitrogen-containing compounds. In the sensory evaluation of Teriyaki sauce, the items of roasted shrimp and sweety aroma showed significant differences for grilled-type application to Teriyaki sauce. The above results show the possible application of grilled-type reaction flavor to Teriyaki sauce.

This study was performed to compare the changes of quality in citron(Citrus junos Sieb) juice between sampleII stored at 5$^{\circ}C$ for 1 year after extraction and sampleI made from raw citrons by the belt-pressing extraction method. Compared with sampleI, the soluble solid of sampleII was decreased more than 1$^{\circ}$brix, and the moisture increased 3%. The acidity reduced from 5.83 to 5.23 at the pH rose from 2.68 to 2.84. Although it decreased more than 50% in vitamin C and over 20~30% in amino acid, the changes of the other proximate components, amino nitrogen and free sugar content were very little at the range 0.1~1.0%. Volatile compounds in citron juices between sampleI and II were analyzed by GC and GC-MS. Sample I and II showed about 70 of volatile compounds. But only 13 compounds were identified by mass spectrometer. Major volatile compounds were aromatic compounds of limonene, terpinene, terpineol and terpinolene. Amounts of volatile compounds in citron juices depended on the storage period. The recovery of volatile compounds of citron juices, reduced 30~50% after storage for 1 year and the trace component disappeared during storage. The sensory characteristics including color, aroma, taste and overall acceptability and sugar recipe were not significantly.

Korean ginseng (Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer) has been used as an important medicinal plant in the Orient for a long time. It has been claimed that ginseng has many beneficial bioactive effects on human health, such as antitumor, antistress, antiaging and enhancing immune functions. Red ginseng possibly have new ingredients converted during steaming and dry process from fresh ginseng. Kujeungkupo method which means 9 repetitive steaming and drying process was used for the processes of green tea, Polygonatum odoratum, and Rehmanniae radix preparata. In this study, ingredient conversion of ginseng by 9 repetitive steaming and drying process were investigated measuring conversion efficiency of brown materials, crude lipids, crude proteins and aromatic compounds. Brown materials, as an antioxidant, in red ginseng were produced through non-enzymatic reaction by heat. Repetitive steaming and drying treatments on ginseng root contiunously increased the content of brown materials and the chromaticity. Crude lipids were degraded by heat and converted into volatile aromatic ingredients. Crude lipids were degraded and decreased by 0.52% after the 5th and 7th. Crude proteins were also decomposed and converted to amino acid. Crude proteins after the 9th treatment were decreased by more than 85% as increased times of treatments. A bicyclogermacrene as aromatic material was decreased as increased treatment times, while but a aromatic caramel was increased.

To develop a new detection method using irradiation-induced volatile marker compounds of red pepper powder (RP), the volatile compounds of irradiated RP (0, 1, 3, 5, and 10 kGy) were analyzed by purge and trap (P&T)/solid phase microextraction (SPME)/gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) methods. A total of 51 and 31 compounds were detected in IRP by SPME and P&T methods, respectively. Among these, 25 compounds, which were composed of 4 hydrocarbons, 7 aldehydes, 1 ketone, 3 alcohols, 4 aromatic compounds, 2 esters and 4 miscellaneous compounds, showed irradiation dependent manner with significant positive correlation (p<0.01 or p<0.05) between irradiation dose and relative concentration. However, all compounds except 1,3-bis(1,1-dimethylethyl)benzene were not suitable as marker compounds because of their low determination coefficients ($R^2$<0.80) between irradiation dose and their concentrations, and detectablilty in nonirradiated sample. Therefore, only one compound, 1,3-bis(1,1-dimethylethyl)benzene, was tentatively identified as a volatile marker compound to detect irradiated RP.
