Fifteen free fatty acids including myristic acid were isolated and identified from red ginseng processed from CA and MA stored fresh ginseng. Linoleic acid (80%) and palmitic acid (10.5%) content were the major components accounting for more than 90% of the total free fatty acid. The contents of free and identified fatty acids were not greatly changed in all the treatments. Especially when preservative was treated, the change of free fatty acid was quite stable over the control. Each fraction of neutral, glyco- and phospholipid was constant in terms of quantities before and after the treatment. Key words Controlled atmosphere, modified atmosphere, fresh ginseng, red ginseng, fatty acid.

Chemical composition, free amino acid and fatty acid composition of wild and cultured cockle clam were studied. 1. The content of crude protein was higher in Anadara suberenata thanthat ini Anadara granosa. The contents of crude protein and ash increased after boiling. 2 Free amino acid composition of Anadara granosa was similar to that of Anadara suberenata. Both glutamic acid and aspartic acid among free amino acid were the most abundant in cockle clam. Next, leucine, arginine and lysine were abundant in order. They all composed of approximately 50%^ of total amino acid content. Whereas the contents of cystine and methionine were poor. 3. In cockle clam the major fatty acids consisted of C16 :0, C18: 0, C18 ;1 and C18:3 in order. The level of C16 :0 was the highest in lipids. The levels of C18 : 0 and C14 :0 were higher in Anadara granosa than those in Anadara suberenata, while the levels of C16 :0, C18 :3 and C16 : 1 were higher in Amadara suberenata than those in Anadara granosa.

The purpose of this study was to compare differences in the main food components between Korean and imported quinoa from Peru, the U.S., and Thailand. Proximate composition of Korean quinoa showed highest crude protein and crude ash, while Korean quinoa had lowest moisture. Total amino acid content was higher in Korean quinoa than in imported quinoa. Fatty acid content was highest in quinoa cultivated in the U.S. and Wonju. Quinoa cultivated in Wonju was rich in palmitic acid, lignoceric acid, linoleic acid, eicosadienoic acid, erucic acid, and nervonic acid. Mineral content was higher in Korean quinoa than in imported quinoa. Quinoa cultivated in Wonju showed highest contents of P, Mg, Zn, while quinoa cultivated in Hongcheon showed the highest content of Na. Citric acid was found the major organic acid in quinoa. Citric acid content was highest in quinoa imported from the U.S. and lowest in quinoa cultivated in Hongcheon. Among free sugar, raffinose and glucose contents were highest in quinoa cultivated in Hongcheon, The results of this study show Korean quinoa has high contents of protein, amino acids, fatty acids, minerals and free sugar, offering essential amino acids in an excellent balance.

Feasibility of surface plasmon resonance (SPR) method to evaluate soybean frying oil quality was evaluated. Free fatty acid value, p-anisidine value, conjugated dienoic acid content, conjugated trienoic acid content, peroxide value, iodine value, total polar compound (TPC), ratio of unsaturated fatty acid to saturated fatty acid, refractive index, dielectric constant, smoking point, and L, a, and b of Hunter color system were selected as parameters related to conventional evaluation of soybean frying oil quality. SPR scale mapped with conventional quality parameters well described free fatty acid value, conjugated dienoic acid content, dielectric constant, TPC, and b of Hunter color system, as shown by correlation and linear regression analyses.

The contents of total lipids and their components of brown rice grain were studied for 5 colored rice cultivars, 1 aromatic rice cultivar and 1 normal rice cultivar grown in Korea. The total lipid contents ranged 2.04 to 4.69% based on total dry weight. The Tohoku #149 showed the highest content which was followed by Hansanheukmi and Sanghaehyang-hyeolna. The lowest content were observed in three cultivars, Heuknambyeo, Hyangnambyo and Dongjinbyeo which showed no difference among cultivars. The main classes of the total lipid were triglyceride, diglyceride, free sterol, free fatty acid and sterol esters in all cultivars examined. The ratio of triglyceride in total lipid was high in colored rice and aromatic rice compared to Dongjinbyeo which is normal rice cultivars, but the ratio of diglyceride was high in Dongjinbyeo. The major fatty acid compositions in the cultivars examined were linoleic acid, oleic acid and palmitic acid. There was a varietal difference in fatty acid composition, for example, erucic acid was detected in aromatic and colored rices cultivars, while none of this compound was found in Dongjinbyeo.

This study was carried out to determine the lipid content and neutral lipid compositions of Japonica and indica rice bran oils. The average content ratio of neutral lipids, g]ycolipids and phospholipids were 89.5 : 4.0 : 6.5 in japonica rice bran oil and 93.7 : 2.6 : 3.7 in Indica rice bran oils, respectively. It was seen that the neutral lipid content was significantly higher in JAponica rice bran oil, while the contents of glycolopods and phospholipids were significantly higher in japonica rice bran oils. The neutral lipids consisted of esterified sterol, triglyceride, free fatty acid, free sterol, diglyceride and monoglyceride. Triglyceride was the highest (48.7-49.7%) among the neutral lipids. Major fatty acids of rice bran oils were oleic (39.65-43.68f)), linoleic (32.62-39.42%) and palmitic acid (16.54-18.83%). The linoleic acid content was higher in Japonica rice bran oils than in indica rice bran oils.

Changes in taste components of Backilju, an traditional alcoholic beverage of Korea, were investigated. Ethanol(17%) was the most abundant, and then isoamylalcohol(23mg%) and methanol(8mg%) were also detected in a small amount in Backilju. Major non-volatile organic acids were lactic and malic acid, followed by citric, fumaric and succinic acid. Arginine, phenylalanine and glutamic acid were major free amino acids and essential amino acid content was 230∼560 mg%, which was 45∼48% of total free amino acids. The major fatty acid of total lipid was palmitic acid(37∼43%). It has been found that the Backilju contained more free amino acids and alcohols than other Korean Yokjus.

This study was undertaken to determine the effects of fish oil supplementation with low dose on the lipid content and fatty acid composition of breast milk. Among 18 lactating women who were exclusively breast-fed their babies, 6 were in control group and 12 were in fish lil groups. The subjects in fish oil groups were supplemented with 1.96g/d or 3.92g/d of fish oil for 2 weeks from 10 to 12 weeks of postpartum. All subjects consumed their usual diet at home. Breast milk samples were collected at the final day of experiment. By fish oil supplementation, the concentrations of triglyceride, cholesterol, free fatty acid and phospholipid as well as total lipid in breast milk tended to increase, but not significant. There was no dose-dependent response. The fatty acid composition of breast milk was not changed by fish oil supplementation. These results suggest that low dose of fish oil supplementation may increase of lipid content, but does not affect on the fatty acid composition of breast milk.

The effects of gamma-irradiation on the nutritional components of some Korean soybean-based fermentation foods were studied. Doenjang (soybean paste), kochujang (red pepper paste) and chungkukjang were prepared, irradiated at 0, 5, 10 and 20 kGy, and their compositions of free amino acid, free fatty acid and organic acid were determined. Compositions of free amino acid and free fatty acid in gamma irradiated sample were stable compared to non-irradiated control. Content of citric acid and succinic acid increased, while that of malic acid decreased in the gamma irradiated chungkookjang, but there were no significant changes in organic acid composition in organic and kochujang.
