In order to optimize the extract condition and improve physiological activity of the extract form Tricholoma matsutake, experiments related to extraction methods, totale yield, content of total soluble polysaccharide, SOD-like activity, total polyphenol amount, and volatile flavor compound and the others were carried out, results were obtained as following: Compare with traditional hydrothermal extraction method (Hot water extraction : HWEW), it illustrates that the low temperature extraction method which combines a supersonic waves and microwave (Supersonic microwave extraction : SMEW) causes of increasing the total yield, total soluble polysaccharide. As to the anti-oxident effect, SMEW method leds to increasing of the SOD-like activity, total polyphenol amount as well. Also, cytotoxic effect and growth inhibitory effect against cancer cell line are much higher in SMEW method than HWEW method, especially SMEW5 extracts treated by supersonic 15 min. and microwave 120W, 3 min. and 2 times. The main volatile flavor compound and infinitesimal volatile flavor compound both increase significantly by SMEW method. It is concluded the main components of the volatile flavor compounds extracted from Tricholoma matsutake are 1-octen-3-0l, Methyl cinnamate, 2-octeno1 et al. alcohol typies. Consequently, SMEW5 method is considered as the most effective one for anti-oxidant and is prior to any other methods. And the optimun conditions of this method are : supersonic waves (supersonic, 25KHz, 50W) 15 minutes, microwave spectroscopy (microwave, 2,450MHz, 120W) 3 minutes, and every treatment is performed once followed twice repeats.

This study evaluated the effects of two Korean traditional plant extracts (Diospyros kaki THUNB. leaf; DK, and Nelumbo nucifera leaf; NN) on the fermentation, functional and sensory properties of herbal yogurts. Compared to control fermentation, all plant extracts increased acidification rate and reduced the time to complete fermentation (pH 4.5). Supplementation of plant extracts and storage time were found to influence the characteristics of the yogurts, contributing to increased viability of starter culture and phenolic compounds. In particular, the increase in the counts of Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus was highest (2.95 and 1.14 Log CFU/mL respectively) in DK yogurt. Furthermore, supplementation of the plant extracts significantly influenced to increase the antioxidant activity and water holding capacity and to produce volatile compounds. The higher antioxidant activity and water holding capacity were observed in NN yogurt than DK yogurt. Moreover, all of the sensory characteristics were altered by the addition of plant extracts. Addition of plant extracts increased the scores related to flavor, taste, and texture from plain yogurt without a plant extract, as a result of volatile compounds analysis. Thus, the overall preference was increased by plant extracts. Consequently, supplementation of DK and NN extracts in yogurt enhanced the antioxidant activity and physical property, moreover increased the acceptability of yogurt. These findings demonstrate the possibility of using plant extracts as a functional ingredient in the manufacture of herbal yogurt.

Volatile flavor components in three grape(Vitis vinifera L.) varieties were extracted by SDE(Simultaneous steam distillation and extraction) method using the mixture of n-pentane and diethylether(1:1, v/v) as an extract solvent. Grapes of the following varieties were studies : Blackolympia, Campbell and Delaware. The volatile extracts were analyzed by GC-FID and GC/MS. The totals of 77, 72 and 74 volatile flavor components were identified in Blackolympia, Campbell and Delaware, respectively. (E)-2-Hexenal(20.36%), diethylacetal(18.03%), hexanal and ethyl acetate were contained as the main compounds of Blackolympia. In Campbell, ethyl acetate(30.81%) was relatively more abundant than other compounds and among functional groups, C$\_$6/ aldehydes and alcohols were major constituents of the extract. On the other hand, in Delaware, alcohols was the major constituent group and (E)-2-hexenal(21.07%) and (E)-2-hexena1-ol(19.43%) were the main compounds. All of three grape varieties contained a large amount of hexanal, (E)-2-hexenal, hexanol, (E)-2-hexen-1-ol, thus C$\_$6/-compounds proved to be major volatile components of grape and small amount of terpenols were only detected from Delaware.

This study was conducted to investigate physicochemical and functional properties of turnip. The concentrations of antocyanin in the rind of root was 3.24mg%, which was about 3.5 times higher than those in the flesh. Among free amino acids in each part of turnip, glutamic acid showed the highest concentrations(132.5mg%) in the root followed by alanine(25.0mg%), valine (23.3mg%), and serine (20.7mg%). Contents of minerals in the root of turnip were 395.7mg% for potassium, 187mg% for calcium, 53.6mg% for phosphate, and 40.7mg% for magnesium. According to dynamic heasdspace analysis, dimethyl disulfide was the most abundant flavor components from the juice of fresh turnip and other volatile components such as dimethyl trisulfide, 1 hexanal, 2 methyl 1 butamine, and 1 penten 3 ol were also identified. From the blanched turnip, however, 3 isothiocyanato 1 propene and 4 isothiocyanato 1 butene were mainly detected. Fresh and blanched turnips were extracted with water or 70% acetone to investigate percent yield. The concentrations of total polyphenols in the extracts of fresh turnip were higher than those of blanched turnip. The nitrite scavenging effects of water and 70% acetone extracts from fresh or blanched turnip were decreased as pH was increased. Between two water extracts, the 30oC water extracts showed the higher values of electron donating ability than 95$^{\circ}C$ water extracts.

Volatile flavor components of Codonopsis lanceolata were extracted by gas co-distillation (GCD), solvent extraction/fractionation (SEF), and headspace sampling (HSS) methods. The extracts were analyzed by dual-capillary gas chromatography-retention index (GC-RI) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(GC-MS). The two extracts prepared by SEF and HSS gave more similar fragrance to the Codonopsis lanceolata than the GCD extract. The GC profiles of the SEF and HSS extracts were similar to each other except for differences in peak areas. The extract prepared by SEF gave a sweet note while the extract prepared by HSS gave a green note. The GCD extract began to give a burnt note of herb medicine with prolonged distillation. Rapid extraction of flavor components from Codonopsis lanceolata was possible in several short steps by SEF and HSS methods compared to GCD. GC-MS and GC-RI were used for peak identification. GC-RI was more effective for identification of isomers, and polar FFAP column was more suitable for identification of polar compounds. From Codonopsis lanceolata we identified 35 volatile flavor constituents, 24 of which have not been previously reported by simultaneous distillation extraction method $^{(5)}$. trans-2-Hexanal, cis-3-hexen-1-ol, trans-2-hexen-1-ol, and hexanol were considered key components of the green note and 1-octen-3-ol, the component of the fresh note. Esters, including amyl propionate, seem to be responsible for the sweet note particular to Codonopsis lanceolata.

This study was performed to develop natural spices and functional foods using Cheongung (Cnidium officinale) which is one of the Korean medicinal plants. The volatile flavor patterns of Cnidium officinale were detected by electronic nose with 6 metal oxide sensors, and the principal component analysis was carried out. The volatile flavor components of Cnidium officinale were isolated by simultaneous steam-distillation extraction with pentane and diethylether (1 : 1), and essential oils were analyzed by capillary GC and GC/MS. The free radical scavenging activity of ethanol and methanol extracts from Cnidium officinale was measured by using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and compared with ${\alpha}-tocopherol$ as reference. The principal component analysis showed the difference of principal components between fresh and drying samples. Eighty-five volatile flavor components (643.64 ppm) from fresh Cnidium officinale were identified and the major components were butyl phthalide, sabinene, neocnidilide. Sixty-four volatile flavor components (218.15 ppm) from hot air dried one were identified and the major components were butyl phthalide, sabinene, 3-N-butyl phthalide. And 73 volatile flavor components (784.15 ppm) from freeze dried one were identified and the major components were butyl phthalide, sabinene, ${\beta}-selinene$. The free radical scavenging activity of methanol cold extract (500 ppm) of freeze dried Cnidium officinale was higher than other samples. And methanol and ethanol cold extracts (above 250 ppm) of freeze dried sample were higher than ${\alpha}-tocopherol$ $25\;{\mu}M$ (22.34%).

Pine twigs with buds were cut into $2{\sim}3\;mm$ long pieces and about 18g was used for each experiment. Pressure and temperature ranges employed were $100{\sim}300\;bar$ and $35{\sim}55^{\circ}C$, respectively. Volatile compounds of extracts were isolated and identified by gas chromatography and mass selective detector. Twenty three compounds from the extracts were identified. Limonene and ${\beta}-pinene$ were found to be the major components with $32.6{\sim}43.4%$ being limonene. Extracts obtained by supercritical fluid extraction were lower in monoterpene and higher in oxygenated terpenoids than those by steam distillation and solvent extraction (SDE). Sensory evaluation showed that the pine flavor extracted using supercritical carbon dioxide was much better in quality than that of SDE. In conclusion, it was found out that supercritical fluid extraction can successfully be applied to extract high quality flavor from pine.

The study was conducted to identify volatile flavor compounds in concentrated onion extracts ($Oniwell^{TM}$) during storage at $30^{\circ}C$ for 150 days. A total of 23 compounds was detected in samples by solid phase microextraction (SPME)/GC/MSD, consisting mainly of 9 sulfur-containing compounds, 5 carbonyl compounds, 4 furans, 2 aromatic compounds and 3 miscellaneous compounds. The sulfur-containing compounds were major compounds with ranges of 75.8~67.3% of total volatiles. In particular, dimethyl trisulfide, with a cooked cabbage-like odor, was 50.1~42.1% of the total amount of sulfur-containing compounds. Two compounds, dimethyl disulfide (fresh garlic/green onion-like) and methylpropyl disulfide (garlic salt-like), were significantly increased with longer storage periods (p<0.05). Four furans (furfural, 2-acetylfurn, 5-methyl-2-furfural, furfurylalcohol), known as thermally generated flavors, ranged from 14.2~12.9% of total volatiles, and the amounts of 4 aldehydes (2-, 3-methylbutanal, benzaldehyde, phenylactaldehyde) derived from lipid oxidation during heat treatment were followed in that order. Accordingly, it was estimated that these 3 groups including sulfur-containing compounds, furans and aldehydes played key roles in flavors in concentrated onion extracts ($Oniwell^{TM}$) during storage.
