The red ginseng marc was roasted at various conditions and its organo-leptic properties and flavor components were investigated. Scorched-rice odor and roasted odor and the roasted red ginseng marc powder were much stronger than those from the unroasted red ginseng marc powder while earth odor, old-rice odor, metalic off-odor and woody odor were much weaker than those from the unroasted red ginseng marc. Savory odor and scorched-rice odor as well as savory taste and astringent taste from the water-extract of red ginseng marc roasted at $200^{\circ}C$ were stronger, but smoky odor, woody odor, biner taste and rough taste were weaker than those roasted at $230^{\circ}C$. Seven kinds of pyrazines, two kinds of carbonyl compounds, seven kinds of acids, two kinds of esters, five kinds of phenolic compowlds, maltol and six other compounds were identified as flavor components in distillate from red ginseng marc roasted at $200^{\circ}C$ for twenty minuties. Of them pyrazines and maltol are thought to be compounds which have characteristic odor such as roasted odor and/or scorchedrice odor in the roasted red ginseng marc.

Background: Emerging reports suggest the potential for adverse health effects from exposure to emissions from some additive manufacturing (AM) processes. There is a paucity of real-world data on emissions from AM machines in industrial workplaces and personal exposures among AM operators. Methods: Airborne particle and organic chemical emissions and personal exposures were characterized using real-time and time-integrated sampling techniques in four manufacturing facilities using industrial-scale material extrusion and material jetting AM processes. Results: Using a condensation nuclei counter, number-based particle emission rates (ERs) (number/min) from material extrusion AM machines ranged from $4.1{\times}10^{10}$ (Ultem filament) to $2.2{\times}10^{11}$ [acrylonitrile butadiene styrene and polycarbonate filaments). For these same machines, total volatile organic compound ERs (${\mu}g/min$) ranged from $1.9{\times}10^4$ (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene and polycarbonate) to $9.4{\times}10^4$ (Ultem). For the material jetting machines, the number-based particle ER was higher when the lid was open ($2.3{\times}10^{10}number/min$) than when the lid was closed ($1.5-5.5{\times}10^9number/min$); total volatile organic compound ERs were similar regardless of the lid position. Low levels of acetone, benzene, toluene, and m,p-xylene were common to both AM processes. Carbonyl compounds were detected; however, none were specifically attributed to the AM processes. Personal exposures to metals (aluminum and iron) and eight volatile organic compounds were all below National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)-recommended exposure levels. Conclusion: Industrial-scale AM machines using thermoplastics and resins released particles and organic vapors into workplace air. More research is needed to understand factors influencing real-world industrial-scale AM process emissions and exposures.

This study is for investigation of indoor conditions with air contamination after occupation 120 households in brand-new apartments by measuring the concentration of VOCs and carbonyl compounds. It has been found that TVOC (total volatile organic compounds; TVOCs) were $688.61{\mu}g/m^3$ after moving in. And formaldehyde, toluene, m, p-xylene, acetone and ethylbenzene were $158.56{\mu}g/m^3$, $146.58{\mu}g/m^3$, $69.28{\mu}g/m^3$, $63.80{\mu}g/m^3$ and $29.65{\mu}g/m^3$, respectively. The mean concentrations of indoor air pollutants tend to decrease along an increase dwelling period. But, the mean concentration of d-limonene increased from 2 months to 10 months. Also, toluene, ethylbenzene, m, p, o-xylene amounted to 38.8 % among VOCs studied, this ratio tend to decrease along with and increased dwelling period.

Each molecular weight (Mw) fraction of melanoidins prepared from a D-glucose and glycine system, i. e., Mw below 1,000, Mw between 1,000 to 5,000 and Mw above 5,000 and nondialyzable and ozone-treated melanoidins were reacted with heat-induced mutagens such as Trp-P-1, Trp-P-2, Glu-P-1, Glu-P-2 and IQ at $37^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. The inhibitory effects of the melanoidins on the mutagens increased with increasing molecular weight. The reducing ability ana antioxidative activity of melanoidins also increased in proportion to the increase in molecular weight, whereas the mutagenic inhibitory effect decreased on reduction of the melanoidins with sodium borohydride. It was also observed that a part of Trp-P-1 was adsorbed to melanoidin molecules. On modification of amino groups of these mutagens with carbonyl compounds derived through the Maillard reaction such as diacetyl and glyceraldehyde, their mutagenic activities were remarkably suppressed. Accordingly, it is speculated that the mutagenic inhibitory action of melanoidins is due to their reducing ability and antioxidative activity, and electrostatic binding and carbonyl groups of the melanoidin molecules.

MMPs (Matrix metalloproteinases) are enzymes playing an important role to turnover and remodel main protein compositions of extracellular matrix. MMP-2 and MMP-9 of MMPs having a catalytic domain which is apart from a hemopexin-like domain part, are different from the other MMPs pertaining fibronectinlike domain close to hemopexin-like domain. It was reported that the development of MMP-9 restrainer can prevent the transfer of liver cancer. In this study, MMP-9 restrainers were extracted and purified from Hovenia dulcis Thunberg. The each fractionary part was examined to investigate the inhibitory effect on MMPs. Three compounds, compound A and B eluted with ethyl acetate (EA) and compound C with methanol, were identified by $^1H$ and $^{13}C$ NMR, GC/MS, and FT-IR. Compound A is considered as a kind of catechine type compound having a benzene ring substituted by hydroxyl and methoxyl groups. Compound B and C are nobiletin type compound pertaining a carbonyl group. Compound A, B and C showed 76%, 66% and 71% of inhibition effect on MMP-9 at 1.0% concentration, respectively. Compound A showed the best inhibition effect on MMP-9.

Volatile flavor components in powdered Katsuobushi were simultaneous trapped by steam distillation-extraction method, and these were fractionated into the neutral, the phenolic, the acidic and the basic fraction. Volatile flavor components in these fraction were analyzed by the high-resolution GC and GC-MS equipped with a fused silica capillary column. The whole steam volatile concentrate consisted of $48\%$ neutral fraction(NF), $35\%$ phenolic fraction(PF), $12\%$ acidic fraction(AF) and $5\%$ basic fraction(BF). Thirty components such as 8 hydrocarbons, 8 aldehydes, 6 furans, 5 alcohols and 3 ketones were identified from NF. And sixteen components such as phenol, guaiacol, dimethoxy phenol, eugenol in PF, twelve components such as propionic, butanoic, isopentanoic, n-hexanoic, heptanoic, octanoic acid in AF, ten components such as 2,6-dimethylpyrazine, 2-nethylpyridine, 2,4-dimethylthiaBole in BF were identified. NF and PF gave a much higher yield than others and were assumed to be indispensable for the reproduction of aroma of powdered Katsuobushi. It was also identified eight components of volatile carbonyl compounds such as ethanal, propanal, butanal, pentanal by 2,4-DNPH method.

As for red pepper seasoning oil (RPSO), seasoning oil (SO) and pine needle oil (PNO), various organic solvent extracts from rosemary powder and tocopherol are treated as control group. At this time, amounts that are treated were all 1,000 ppm. It was observed by AV (acid value), POV (peroxide value) and carbonyl compounds content of the stored samples during 3 months at 60${\pm}$2$^{\circ}C$ incubation. Tocopherol was shown to be pro-oxidant than the antioxidant in all seasoning oil samples. Icreasing effect of storage stability of chloroform/MeOH extract was the most superior one. Final result of icreasing effect of storage stability from the determinated data was as follows. The storage stability of solvent system by AV and POV analysis was in the increasing order of chloroform/MeOH extract> ethyl alcohol extract>hot water extract>ethyl acetate extract>acetone extract>none treating group> tocopherol treating group, POV was chloroform/MeOH extract>ethyl alcohol extract ${\geq}$ ethyl acetate extract> acetone extract ${\geq}$ hot water extract>none treating group>tocopherol treating group and by carbonyl compound content analysis was in the increasing order of chloroform/MeOH extract>ethyl acetate extract>ethyl alcohol extract>hot water extract>acetone extract>none treating group>tocopherol treating group.

Protective effect of skin by antioxidative dietary buchu (Chinese chives, Allium tuberosum Router), was evaluated in ICR mice fed diets containing 2% or 5% buchu for 12 months. Lipid peroxidation and protein oxidation in skin, with or without ultraviolet B (UVB) irradiation, activities of antioxidative enzymes, total glutathione concentrations, and non-soluble collagen contents were measured. Dietary buchu decreased significantly in TBARS and protein carbonyl levels in skin compared to the control group, and were lower in those fed 5% than 2% buchu diet group. ICR mice exhibited an age-dependent decrease in antioxidative enzyme activities and total glutathione concentrations on the control diet, but in the groups fed buchu diet the enzyme activities and glu-tathione concentrations remained at youthful levels for most of the study. SOD, glutathione peroxidase, and catalase activities as well as total glutathione concentrations increased with time in the skins of the mice fed buchu diets. Lipid peroxidation and protein oxidation provoked by UVB irradiation on ICR mice skin homogenates were also significantly inhibited by dietary buchu. The buchu diets also decreased the formation of non-soluble collagen in mice skin, compared to the control group. These results suggest that antioxidative components and sulfur-compounds in buchu may confer protective effect against oxidative stress resulting from aging and exposure to ultraviolet irradiation.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of cigarette filter on in vitro cytotoxicity of cigarette mainstream smoke from the cigarette. In this work, we used 3 types of cigarettes included non-filtered 2R4F cigarette, cellulose acetate-filtered 2R4F cigarette, and carbon dual-filtered 2R4F cigarette which was made from original 2R4F by replacing with an acetate filter containing carbon. The cytotoxicity of both the cigarette smoke condensate (CSC), which was collected in Cambridge filter pad, and the gas/vapor phase (GVP), which was bubbled through in phosphate-buffered saline in a gas-washing bottle, was determined using a neutral red uptake assay with CHO-K1 cells. With regard to cytotoxicity when calculated on an equal puff basis, the cytotoxicity of CSC from the filtered cigarettes was lower than that of the non filtered cigarette. Also, $EC_{50}$ vlaue of GVP from carbon filter cigarette was 40.9 puff/L, indicating the cytotoxicity to be $20\%$ lower than that of the CA filter cigarette. The cytotoxicity of the GVP was correlated to the several vapor phase components (formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, acetone, acrolein, crotonaldehyde and MEK). In conclusion, carbon filter, which significantly reduced the amount of carbonyl compounds in mainstream cigarette smoke, results in significant reductions in the cytotoxicity potential of the smoke.
