Egg white mix (EWM) added with different ratios of cream $(10{\sim}15%,v/v)$ was fermented with Lactobacillus acidophilus (KCTC 2182) and changes of volatile aroma compounds during fermentation for 21 h were investigated. The amount of volatile aroma compounds between pre-fermented EWM, 15 h-fermented EWM, soft ice cream prepared from fermented EWM, and hard ice cream prepared from soft ice cream was compared. The results were as follows: (1) The amount of ethanol increased gradually until 9 h and increased rapidly to maximum value at 12 h and then decreased rapidly. The amount of acetone at 12 h was slightly higher, but it was not changed markedly during fermentation. Diacetyl was detected at 3 h and increased gradually to maximum value until 15 h and then decreased slightly. The amount of butanol was not changed markedly during fermentation. Acetoin was detected at 3 h and increased rapidly until 15 h and then increased gradually. (2) The amount of acetone, ethanol, diacetyl and butanol of pre-fermented sample, 15 h-fermented sample, soft ice cream and hard ice cream increased in proportion to the amount of cream added to EWM. However, the amount of butanol was relatively constant regardless of added cream ratio. The amount of volatile aroma compounds of soft ice cream was higher than that of other samlples, while that of pre-fermented sample was lower than that of other samples. Diacetyl and acetoin were not detected in pre-fermented sample.

Cooked rice was prepared by the conventional cooking method being used among Korean families. The bottom layer (very slightly roasted and charred) and upper layer of the cooked rice in a cooking vessel were collected separately in order to determine the chemical changes and volatile carbonyl formation occurring in rice during the cooking process. Amino acids, especially free amino acid contents were reduced with the decrease of reducing sugar in rice after cooking. A little change was shown in the fatty acid composition of lipid fractions, however, decreased iodine values and increased fatty acid values were observed after cooking process. Volatile carbonyl compounds from cooked rice were isolated and 8 carbonyls of them were identified. A significant difference of relative composition of the identified carbonyls was found between the upper layer and bottom layer of cooked rice. Generally, the cooked rice obtained from the bottom layer had shown a little more changes in chemical composition and a stronger browning flavour than those of the upper layer of cooked rice.

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.

Sesame oils are partially mixed with other vegetable oils due to high price in a Korean market. To find out authentic sesame oil, a mass spectrometer-based electronic nose (MS-based E-nose) was used. Sesame oil (Se) was blended with soybean oil (So) or corn oil (Co) at the ratio (Se:So, Se:Co) of 97:3, 94:6, 91:9, 88:12 and 85:15, respectively. Intensities of each fragment from sesame oil by MS-based E-nose were completely different from those of soybean oil or corn oil. The obtained results were used for discriminant function analysis (DFA). Volatile organic components (VOC) of soybean oil or corn oil were similar to those of fresh air and DFA plot indicated a significant separation of pure sesame oil and pure other oil. The group of the mixed oil was seperated with that of sesame oil in DFA plot and the added amount of soybean oil to sesame oil was correlated with discriminant function first score (DF1). MS based E-nose system could be used as an efficient method to investigate the purity of sesame oil.

To provide scientific information for processing of value-added products from onion, volatile flavor compounds were compared in onions harvested in 6 regions, such as Muan (Jeonnam), Buan (Jeonbuk), Andong (Gyeongbuk), and 3 regions of Gyeongnam around Changnyeong (Yueo, Jangma, Seongsan). A total of 51 compounds were detected in samples by solid phase microextraction (SPME)/GC/MSD and they consisted mainly of sulfur-containing compounds (20), aldehydes (4), ketones (5), esters (11), aromatic hydrocarbons (4), nitrogen containing compounds (2), and miscellaneous compounds (5). The sulfur-containing compounds were the major compounds with ranges of $62.6{\sim}80.3%$ of total volatiles, regardless of harvested regions. The amounts of 5 sulfur containing compounds known as having antioxidant activity (2,4-, 2,5-dimetylthiophene, 2-vinyl-1,3-dithiane, 5-methoxy thiazole, and 3,5-diethyl-1,2,4-trithiolane) were the highest in Andong and followed by Yueo, Jangma, Buan, Seongsan, and Muan. However, onions from Buan region had the highest amounts of 5 sulfur-containing compounds known as having anticarcinogenic activity ((Z)-, (E)-methyl propenyl disulfide, (Z)-, (E)-propenyl propyl disulfide, and di-2-propenyl disulfide), followed by Yueo, Andong, Jangma, Seongsan, and Muan.
