In this study, development of the pine needle flavor oils and their application to foods, especially to traditional Korean foods, were investigated. The pine needle flavor oils were prepared by the autoclaving method, and their volatile flavor components(VFCs) were determined by capillary gas chromatographic method The major flavor components of the pine noddle flavor oil were a -pinene 31.1%, pentane 9.8%, tricyclene 7.5%, camphene 6.8%, hexanal 6.2%, propane 6.0%, ${\beta}$-pinene 5.6%, limonene 3.9%. The acceptability of the pine needle flavor oils, sensory evaluation including a preference test and quantitative descriptive analysis(QDA), of the pine needle flavor oil, a sesame oil, and a blended oil (pine needle flavor oil : sesame oil 50 : 50 v/v) was carried out. The blended oil and sesame oil showed much higher preference scores than the pine needle flavor oil, and blended oil was almost as acceptable as sesame oil(P ＜ 0.05). The results seem to indicate that blended oil can be used as a unique substitution for sesame oil in some foods, especially in some traditional Koran food.

The differences of nutritive components in muscle and viscera of local and Israeli strains of common carp were examined. The crude lipid content in muscle was higher in the local carp than in the Israeli carp, but that in viscera was lower in the local carp than in the Israeli carp. There was no appreciable differences of crude protein and ash in viscera between local and Israeli carp. The distribution patterns of the total amino acid profiles for both local and Israeli carp were very similar. The principal amino acids were aspartic acid, glutamic acid, leucine and Iysine. They were 42 percent of total amino acids. Taurine and histidine were important part of free amino acids. Eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid content in the polar lipids were high in both strains.

It was performed to find out difference of the nutritional contents between chungjung chicken meats grown chemicals free and general chicken meats. The chungjung chicken was eat and given feeds of good quality mixed living microbial agent, power of ginseng leaves and by-product of extract liquefied sea foods from fishes producted clean area of the Western Sea, including plentiful calciums, amino acids, docosahexanoic acid(DHA) etc. Addition of they improved chungjung chicken yields and meat quality compared to general chicken given feeds mixed antibiotic etc. Also, chungjung chickens eaten miced type develop resistance to in disease. There were significant trend in crude proteins, calciums, crude lipids contents, and unsaturated fatty acids between the chungjung chicken meats and the general chicken meats. The crude proteins and calciums contents were higher in the chungjung chicken meats than the general chicken meats, but the crude lipids contents were higher in the general chicken meats than that. Also, contents of the n6 fatty acids and n3 fatty acids in chungjung meats were higher than that. Especially, contents of DHA in the chungjung chicken meats were detected higher than the general chicken meats. Therefore, the results from this experiments will provide a information for the nutritional knowledge of the 'white meats', especially the clean chicken meats.

The composition of Chinese ceramic shards has been the subject of analysis in Europe, beginning in the 18th century, and in China from the 1950s. Scientific studies of traditional Korean shards commenced in the United States and Germany in the 1980s, and studies within Korea began in the 1990s. From analysis of a large systematically collected dataset, the composition of porcelain produced during the Kory. dynasty, including 21 celadon and 10 whiteware groups, was characterized and compared with that of Chinese ceramics. The average composition of the body and glaze of several shards (usually three to five) from each group was determined, enabling comparisons between groups. The results show that the majority of groups were derived from mica-quartz porcelain stone, which was commonly used in Yuezhou, Jingdezhen, and other southern Chinese kilns. The composition of glazes includes clay and flux components; the latter were typically wood ash and limestone, initially as burnt but later as crushed forms. The earliest of the Kangjin glazes contained substantially less titanium oxide than did the Yuezhou glazes, which were typically formulated from body material and wood ash. The present study provides a comparative framework for the growing number of analytical investigations associated with excavations occurring in Korea.

To investigate the constituents of antimutagenic factor from brown rice, methanol extracts were fractionated into ether, ethylacetate, buthanol and aqueous fractions. The ether fractions showed distinct antimutagenic effect and active spot were selected by silica gel chromatography. The specific activity of active spot decreased with isolation of the active components from the methanol extract. Qualitative analyses of the active spot by using various spraying reagents revealed that ninhydrin and orcinol did not develop colored reactions. But, ferric chloride, 2,7-dichlorofluorescein, antimony pentachloride, phosphomolybdic acid, bromothymol blue and rhodamine 6G led to colored reactions. These results suggested that the consitituents of active material were neither polar nor nitrogen-containing compounds and that they may contain phenolic compounds and fatty acid derivatives. Main compounds of the active spot were analyzed to be o-hydroxy benzyl alcohol(saligenin), octanoic acid(caprylic acid), 9,12-cis-octadecadienoic acid(linoleic acid), 11-cis-octadecenoic acid(oleic acid), hexadecanoic acid(palmitic acid), 1H-indole-2-carboxylic acid and 1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid(phthalate) in GC/Mass spectrum, and antimutagenicity of these active compounds using standard regeant was reconfirmed in S. typhimurium reversion assay.

This study was conducted to compare and analyze the active and general components between mulberry leaf tea (MLT) and fermented mulberry leaf tea (FMLT). Among the general ingredients, the crude lipids of FMLT contained higher than that of MLT, while the level of carbohydrates was higher in the MLT. Although free sugar of FMLT was a lower concentration than MLT, the value of maltose was higher in the MLT. In FMLT, maltose was not analyzed but small amount of lactose was analyzed. In addition, the level of total free amino acid of MLT was higher than that of FMLT. The level of glutamic acid was highest in MLT, while that of cystine was highest in FMLT. The value of $\gamma$-aminobutyric acid (GABA) was greater in the derivatives of amino acids, and the content was similar for both MLT and FMLT. FMLT also contained a lower level of unsaturated fatty acids than MLT. In addition, the content of total mineral was higher in FMLT, and the level of K was the highest and similar in both teas.

A survey of the available methods for the determination of piperine was made, and a new method, developed based upon alkaline hydrolysis at about $140^{\circ}C$ followed by colorimetric determination of the liberated piperidine. Piperidine on treatment with p-nitrophenyl diazonium fluoborate reagent gives a red colored complex which has an adsorption maximum at 530nm. The method measures the total pungency in pepper and applicaple to piperine of black pepper and oleoresin of black pepper. The advantage of the present method is that the pungent compounds can be determined in micro samples.
