The effects of two levels (1.4 vs 2.8%) of fresh garlic on lipid oxidation and microbial growth in pork patties were evaluated. Hunter color (L, a, b), pH, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), oxidative volatile compounds, total bacteria and Enterobacteriaceae in the pork patties with or without fresh garlic were measured during storage at $4^{\circ}C$. Addition of fresh garlic decreased redness (a), while increased pH and yellowness (b) values of the fresh pork patties were observed, regardless of the levels added. The TBARS values of the pork patties were increased with the addition of fresh garlic (p<0.05). Similar results were observed in oxidative volatile compounds. A total of 13 volatile compounds were detected in the patties (5 sulfur-containing compounds, including allyl mercaptan, allyl methyl sulfide, diallyl sulfide, methyl-(E)-propenyl-disulfide, and diallyl disulfide, and the 8 other oxidative compounds, including 1-pentanol, hexanal, 1-hexanol, heptanal, (E)-2-heptenal, 1-octen-3-ol, (E)-2-octenal and nonanal). Fresh garlic accelerated development of oxidative products in the pork patties, especially hexanal and the total oxidative volatile compounds. However, the addition of 1.4 and 2.8% of fresh garlic inhibited the growth of total bacteria and Enterobacteriaceae, indicating low total bacterial counts and Enterobacteriaceae than the controls.

Effects of jeotkal (salted-fermented seafoods) addition on acid production, growth of lactic acid bacteria, sensory properties, and volatile odor components of kimchi were investigated. Changes in pH and acidity of kimchi added with myulchi-aekjeot, kanari-aekjeot, and aekche-Jukjeot were similar to, whereas those of saeu-jeot sample on 0, 2, and 4 days of ripening were slightly different, those of control sample. Changes in pH and acidity of jogae-jeot sample during whole ripening period were markedly different from those of other samples. Numbers of lactic acid bacteria of all samples on 0 and 4 days were $1.8-2.6{\times}10^{5}\;and\;1.0-2.5{\times}10^{9}\;CFU/mL$, respectively. Overall acceptability and taste of kimchi added with jeotkal except jogae-jeot were higher than those of control sample, with saeu-jeot-added kimchi showing the highest scores. Eight volatile odor components were identified in 6-day-ripened kimchi samples, and those of saeu-jeot sample were slightly higher than those of other samples. Diallyl sulfide and methyl propyl disulfide were produced in 6-day-ripened samples. Ethanol, methyl allyl sulfide, and dimethyl disulfide concentrations increased, whereas that of allyl mercaptan decreased in 6-day-ripened samples compared to unripened ones.

A diffusion - precipitation method was developed to determine acid volatile sulfide (AVS) concentrations in freshwater sediments. This method uses silver nitrate as a sulfide trap solution and the concentration of trapped sulfide is determined gravimetrically. The proposed diffusion - precipitation method is more rapid and less expensive than previously developed purge- and - trap methods. Spiked sodium sulfide recoveries using this method $(97\~120\%)$ were similar with a previously developed diffusion - absorption method $(93.8\~115\%)$ and about $20\%$ greater than a previously developed purge-and-trap method $(74.6\~105\%)$. Detection limit of this method $(0.1\;{\mu}mole\;S\;g^{-l})$ was comparable with that of diffusion-absorption method $(0.06\;{\mu}mole\;S\;g^{-l})$ and purge-and-trap method $(0.05\~0.5\;{\mu}mole\;S\;g^{-l})$.

The study was carried out to find the effect of freeze drying on the volatile organic components in garlic (Allium sativum L.). The volatile organic compounds from fresh and freeze dried garlic were extracted by simultaneous steam distillation and extraction (SDE) method and identified with GC/MS analysis. A total of 42 and 32 compounds were identified in fresh and freeze-dried garlic, respectively. Sulfur containing compounds in the garlic samples were detected as the major compounds, and alcohols, aldehydes and esters were detected as minor compounds. Diallyl disulfide, diallyl trisulfide, allyl methyl disulfide and ally1 methyl trisulfide were the main sulfur compounds in fresh and freeze dried garlic. The amount of sulfur containing compounds were decreased freeze-drying but methyl propyl trisulide, 3- allylthiopropionic acid, cyclopentyl ethyl sulfide etc. were increased. The others, non- sulfur containing compounds such as ethyl acetate, ethanol, 2-propenol, 2- propenal and hexanal were increased in freeze-dried garlic. Consequently, the total amount of volatile organic compounds in garlic became lower during freeze-drying from 853.42 mg/kg to 802.21 /kg, and the composition of major components were nearly same in fresh and freeze-dried garlic.

The objectives of this study were to compare the aroma characteristics and antioxidant activity of raw and heated garlic ($130^{\circ}C$, 2 hr) from different cultivation areas (Danyang, Seosan, Uiseong Namhae, Namdo, Daeseo and China). The volatile compounds were extracted by simultaneous steam distillation extraction and identified with gas chromatography/mass spectrometer. The major volatile compounds of raw garlic were sulfur compounds such as diallyl disulfide, methyl-2-propenyl trisulfide, di-2-propenyl trisulfide etc. After heating, the major volatile compounds were allyl mercaptan, methyl pyrazine, 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dithiane, 2-propenyl propyl disulfide, allyl methyl sulfide, allyl alcohol, and allyl sulfide etc. The DPPH radical scavenging activity (EDA, %) of volatile compounds from raw garlic and heated garlic was increased in a dose-dependent manner. The antioxidant activities (EDA, %) of volatile compounds from raw garlic cultivated in Danyang, Namhae and China were 20.07, 34.62, and 9.71% respectively. After heating, these values were increased to 79.90, 93.59, and 77.26% respectively. Results showed that heat treatment significantly enhanced the antioxidant activities (EDA, %) of the garlic.

The formation of volatile fatty acids(VFAs) and changes in pH, oxidation and reduction potential(Eh) and acid volatile sulfide(AVS) with the addition of yellow clay were investigated using microcosm systems to examine the effects of yellow clay dispersion on the anaerobic decomposition of Cochlodinium polykrikoides in marine sediments. The acetate concentration reached a maximum by day 4 and was 1.2-1.8 fold less in the sample treated with yellow clay compared to the untreated sample (224-270 vs. 333 uM). The formate concentration reached a maximum by day 1 and was 1.3-2.8 fold less in the sample treated with yellow clay compared to the untreated sample (202-439 vs. 563 uM). The propionate concentration reached a maximum by day 2 and was 1.5-1.8 fold less in the sample treated with yellow clay compared to the untreated sample (32.6 vs. 57.2 uM). After the amounts of acetate, formate and propionate peaked the levels dropped dramatically due to the utilization by sulfate reducing bacteria. The Eh of the samples treated with yellow clay was similar to the untreated sample on day 0 but was higher in the sample treated with yellow clay(140-206 mV) from days 4 to 17. AVS started to form on day 3 and this was sustained until day 6, and 1.2-2.2 fold less was produced in the sample treated with yellow clay compared to the untreated sample (40.2-69.3 vs. 83.2-93.8 mg/L). Accordingly, during the anaerobic decomposition of C. polykrikoides in marine sediments, yellow clay dispersal seems to suppress the reduction state of Eh and the formation of volatile fatty acids(acetate, formate and propionate) used as an energy source by sulfate reducing bacteria, indicating that this process controls the production of hydrogen sulfide that negatively affects marine organisms and the marine sediment environment.

Kimchi was prepared with 5, 10 or 20%(w/v) Chinese radish and ripened at $20^{\circ}C$ for 3 days. Acid production and growth of lactic acid bacteria, sensory properties, and several volatile odor components in kimchi were examined. The effects of freeze-drying on the quality of kimchi were also studied. The pH of the control (kimchi prepared without Chinese radish) was 4.31 and gradually decreased as the amount of Chinese radish increased. The acidity of the control was 0.673% and gradually increased as the amount of Chinese radish increased. Viable counts of lactic acid bacteria in the samples did not differ significantly from the control. The pH of freeze-dried/rehydrated kimchi slightly decreased as the amount of Chinese radish increased while its acidity gradually increased. The viable count of lactic acid bacteria of freeze-dried/rehydrated kimchi did not differ significantly as the amount of Chinese radish increased. Overall acceptability and taste of kimchi and freeze-dried/rehydrated kimchi generally improved by the addition of 10% or 20% Chinese radish. Six volatile odor components including ethanol and five sulfur-containing components (SCC) were identified from unripened kimchi, and the level of two SCCs increased as the amount of Chinese radish increased. Eight volatile odor components, ethanol and seven SCCs, were identified from ripened kimchi and the level of five SCCs increased as the amount of Chinese radish increased. Diallyl sulfide and methyl trisulfide were newly detected from the ripened samples, but not from the unripened kimchi. Freeze-drying substantially reduced all of the volatile odor components from kimchi. Five volatile odor components including ethanol and four SCCs were identified from the freeze-dried/dehydrated samples.

The sediment samples were collected from Seonakdong River and were analyzed for sulfide species such Acid Volatile Sulfide(AVS) and Elemental Sulfur(ES) and Chromium Reducible Sulfide(CRS). Then characteristics of the formation of sulfide species were investigated for six selected samples. Finally the relationship between environmental factors and sulfate reducing rate(SRR) was investigated using two selected samples. Concentrations of AVS and CRS were relatively high, which suggests that organics input to the sediments has been continued until recently and that potential of heavy metals leaching from the sediments is low. SRR in the sediments was closely related to fraction of fine particles(silt+clay) and also to dissolved organic carbon content of the sediment(DOCsed). The dependences of environmental factors such as organic content, temperature, sulfate concentration on the SRR was relatively strong in the selected experiments conducted with the samples from Noksan gate and Daejeo gate samples. The environmental factor dependencies were stronger in the Noksan gate samples than in the Daejeo gate samples, which is probably due to higher surface area of the Noksan gate sediments.

Volatile flavor compounds in Alaska pollack sik-hae during fermentation at 5$^{\circ}C$ were analyzed by liquid-liquid continuous extraction (LLCE) and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) methods. Sixty five volatile compounds were detected in Alaska pollack sik-hae during fermentation. These compounds were composed mainly of 11 S-containing compounds, 13 alcohols, 13 acids, 4 aldehydes, 4 ketones, 6 terpenes,4 aromatic compounds and 10 miscellaneous compounds. Among these, 9 S-containing compounds (3-(methylthio)-1-propene, dimethyl disulfide, diallyl sulfide, methylallyl disulfide, methyl-(E) -propenyl disulfide, dimethyl trisulfide, 2 diallyl disulfide isomers and diallyl trisulfide), 2 acids (acetic acid and butanoic acid), 2 ketones (2, 3-butanedione and 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one) and 2 esters (ethyl formate and ethyl acetate) were significantly increased during fermentation (p<0.05), and these compounds were suspected to affect on the odor of Alaska pollack sik-hae.

This study investigated the behaviour of sulfur species after the early diegenetic reduction of sulfate from pore solution in an anoxic intertidal flat deposit in the Banweol area of Kyeong-gi Bay, west coast of Korea. A total of seven sediment cores were collected during 1990∼1992 and were analyzed for their solid-phase sulfur species (acid-volatile sulfur, element sulfur, pyrite sulfur) as well as for chemical components in the pore solution, such as sulfate, ammonium, hydrogen sulfide, phosphate and Fe ion. The pore water sulfate oncentration was found to decrease rapidly downward from the sediment surface, while that of hydrogen sulfide, ammonium and phosphate showed and increase. The dissolved iron concentration in pore water, on the other hand, was found high in the surface layer of sediment, but fell sharply below this layer. these characteristic profiles of pore water sulfide and iron concentrations suggest that some reaction occurs between dissolved iron and sulfide ions, leading to the formation of various sulfide minerals in the sedimentary phase. The amount of inorganic sulfur species in the sediment increased downward, and showed a maximum of up to 7.9 mg/g. among the three species analyzed, acid-volatile sulfur (AVS) was dominant comprising more than 50% of the total. The amount of pyrite sulfur was greater than that of element sulfur. This implies that the formation of pyrite was restricted in this environment. the limited amount of element sulfur in this deposit may have discouraged the active formation of pyrite.
