To enhance the utilization of garlic shoots as food material, the nutritional and volatile flavor com pounds were investigated for garlic shoots, both cold and warm region type garlic shoots. Proximate composition of cold and warm region type was as follows, respectively; crude protein 2%, crude lipid 0.4%, crude ash 1.1% and 1.5%, crude fiber 1.3% and 1.5%. The major fatty acids of 2 varieties of garlic shoots were linoleic, palmitic and linolenic acid, and their desaturation ratio of them was comparatively high, showing 73.7 and 66.8%, respectively. Free sugars were composed of glucose, sucrose, fructose, arabinose and sorbitol. In the total amino acid analysis, the major amino acids were glutamic acid and aspartic acid. The volatile flavor compounds of fresh garlic shoots extracted by hexane and Likens-Nikerson steam distillation apparatus were identified to be methyl-2-propenyl disulfide, diallyl disufide, propenyl propyl disulfide, di-2-propyl-trisulfide, 2-vinyl-1,3-dithiane, and 2-vinyl-4H-1,3-dithiin. Hexane was more effective than steam distillation for extraction of volatile components of garlic shoots.

In the present study, yakju was developed added with 100~400 g of meoru (Vitis coignetiae). We analyzed the volatile flavor compounds and investigated the sensory properties of meoru yakju. The volatile flavor compounds were isolated from in fusions by Porapak Q column adsorption. The concentrated flavor extract was analyzed and identified by GC (gas chromatography) and GC-MS (gas chromatography-mass spectrometry) analyses. Thirty-five compounds, including five alcohols, nine esters, seven acids, four hydrocarbons, three ketones, and seven other compounds, were identified. The total number and content of volatile flavor compounds in control yakju were the highest, but they decreased as the amount of added meoru increased. On the other hand, yakju containing 200 g of meoru was characterized by the highest content of ester compounds, and it was the most preferred in terms of flavor, color, taste, and over all acceptability. Based on these results, addition of 200 g of meoru to 1,715 g of control yakju was determined to be the optimal condition for making meoru yakju.

The identification of volatile constituents in foods is important in creating flavor compounds to improve the flavor of foods. This study was conducted to identify the flavor compounds in soybean sprouts cultivated with 4 different types of soybean seeds. A total of 52 flavor compounds were identified and composed mainly of alcohols (16), aldehydes (17), ketones (10), acids (2), furans (2), and miscellaneous compounds (5). Sprouts cultivated with Dawonkong and Orialtae showed 46 flavor compounds whereas Pungsannamulkong and Nokchaekong was 49 and 50. In total flavor compounds contents, Orialtae was the highest (19.3 mg/kg RC) and followed by Pungsannamulkong (15.83 mg/kg RC), Dawonkong (13.2 mg/kg RC), and Nokchaekong (11.3 mg/kg RC) in that order. Two groups including alcohols and aldehydes were detected high amounts in which their ratio were analyzed 32% and 51% in total flavor contents, respectively. It may be responsible for flavor in soybean sprouts. In case each flavor compound content, 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde was detected the major compound and hexanol, 1-octen-3-ol, and hexanal that the main compounds in lipid oxidation of soybean products were identified the main volatile flavor compounds in soybean sprouts.

Volatile flavor compounds of radish fermented by lactic acid bacteria were extracted using solid-phase microextraction (SPME) and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). A total of 45 volatile flavor compounds were identified. The volatile flavor compounds in unfermented radish mostly consisted of sulfur-containing compounds (95.85%) and aldehydes (2.61%). While the composition ratio of volatile flavor compounds in radish fermented for two days changed to sulfur-containing compounds (75.53%) and acids (11.12%). As the fermentation period was increased, the contents of dimethyl disulfide, dimethyl trisulfide, diallyl sulfide, diallyl disulfide, and diallyl trisulfide, which have unique garlic and scallion flavor, decreased, and acetic acid and 1-hexanol, which have a sour and fruity flavor, increased. These changes in volatile flavor compounds seemed to have affected the flavor characteristics of fermented radish.

Parched mugwort tea was manufactured from mugwort (Artemisia asicatica nakai) leaves by traditional green tea preparation method. Volatile flavor compounds were collected by Tenax GC and they separated on DB-5 capillary column ($60m\;\times\;0.25mm$ i.d.) Fifty eight compounds were isolated and identified by GC-MS from the volatiles. Eleven compounds incucluding benzaldehyde, pinene, myrcene, cineole, 2-phrrolidinonoe, camphor, thujong, 1-acetylpiperidine, caryophyllene, coumarin, and farnesol among the compounds identified were considered as important compounds contributing mugwort-like flavor to the parched mugwort tea. The mixture of these eleven authentic compounds could reproduce aroma of mugwort leaves harvested in April. As results, the concentrations of these eleven flavor compounds in parched mugwort tea may indicate the strength of mugwort-like aroma of the tea.

This study was performed to examine the effects of ${\gamma}$-irradiation on the volatile flavor compounds of dried leeks (Alliums tuberosum R.). Volatile compounds of dried leeks were extracted using simultaneous steam distillation and extraction (SDE), and analyzed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Forty-one, 51, 45, and 42 compounds were tentatively identified in control, 1, 3, and 10 kGy irradiated samples, respectively. The constituents of flavor compounds in irradiated dried leeks were similar to non-irradiated samples. However, the intensities of the peaks were clearly different between them. Sulfur-containing compounds were detected as dominant compounds in all samples and their amounts decreased after ${\gamma}$-irradiation. ${\gamma}$-Irradiation reduced the total concentration of volatile compounds from leeks by 23.19, 15.09, and 30.23% at 1, 3, and 10 kGy doses, respectively.

The study of health promoting and disease preventing compounds in food or by themselves, so called nutraceuticals or functional foods, has become a major field of research in food science. Natural flavor compounds are usually present in food, essential oils, spices, and herbs. These compounds can produce aroma, not only by themselves, but also in combination with other compounds. Today, however, greater interest is being paid to the health promoting properties of natural flavor substances rather than their flavoring properties. In fact, a number of naturally occurring flavor compounds that possess health promoting and disease preventing properties have been extensively studied and identified. The beneficial properties of natural volatile flavor compounds as well as non-volatile substances in spices and herbs discussed in this review include antioxidant, anticarcinogenic, anti-inflammatory, and immune enhancing activities.

Volatile flavor compounds of optimal Maillard reactions (MR) derived with the addition of precursors (AP), control (without AP) and raw as anchovy Engraulis japonicus sauce residue were identified and comparatively analyzed using solid phase microextraction/gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (SPME/GC/MS). MR was produced by adding 1% (w/w) glucose and mixed amino acids (threonine 0.543%, glutamic acid 0.194%, glycine 0.382%, w/w) to raw (100 g of anchovy sauce residue and 100 mL of distilled water), and heating at 110 ℃ for 2 h. Among 65 flavor components detected, 7 compounds were produced through Maillard reaction to change in content. A total of 7 volatile flavor compounds, including 2-methylbutanal, 3-methylbutanal, dimethyl disulfide, methylpyrazine, dimethyl trisulfide, methional, and 2-furanmethanol, tended to increase in the order of raw, control, and MR, but methylpyrazine was not detected in control. Amounts of 2-methylbutanal, 3-methylbutanal, dimethyl disulfide, methylpyrazine, dimethyl trisulfide, methional, and 2-furanmethanol having positive odors (dark chocolate-, garlic-, hazelnut-, cooked potato-like) were 11.04, 50.15, 3.25, 8.38, 4.60, 9.59, and 3.08 times higher, respectively, in MR than those in raw.
