Lipoxygenase(LOX) in soybeans is responsible for beany flavors which limit the wide utilization of soybeans to foods. This study was conducted to analyze beany flavor compounds of the normal Hwagkeumkong and LOX-deficient soybean cultivars, Jinpumkong which lacks L-2, L-3, and Jinpumkong 2 which lacks all L-1, L-2, L-3. Using the combination of dynamic headspace sampling and gas chromatography-mass selective detector(DHS-GC-MSD) for analyzing volatile compounds, hexanal and hexanol were identified in whole soy flour of all three soybena cultivars. Hwangkeumkong had more volatile compounds than Jinpumkong and Jinpumkong 2 in defatted soy flour. Hexanal and acetic acid were identified in soy milk of all three soybean cultivars but Hwangkeumkong had more volatile compounds than Jinpumkong 2. From the analysis with a static headspace sampling(SHS) and GC-MSD the major compounds were hexanal, acetic acid, 1-hexanol, and 1-octen-3-ol. The content of acetic acid was similar among three cultivars. But contents of hexanal and pentanal in Jinpumkong 2 were less than that of Jinpumkong and Hwangkeumkong. Using GC-FID, Jinpumkong 2 had less contents of hexanal and pentanol than Hwangkeumkong in whole soy flour and defatted soy flour. In this study, LOX-deficient soybean cultivars showed less hexanal, pentanol and other compounds than the normal Hwangkeumkong. However quite amount of beany flavor compounds were identified in Jinpumkong and Jinpumkong 2. So further studies are required to characterize LOX isozymes, to understand the mechanisms of beany flavors production, and to develop some other methods for removing beany flavor.

Several commercial cottonseed, corn and rapeseed oils were stored at $60^{\circ}C\;and\;70^{\circ}C$ with daily exposure of fluorescent light for 12 hours and evaluated their rancidity by headspace gas chromatographic analysis of pentanal and hexanal. The data of gas chromatographic analysis was compared with organoleptic flavor evaluation. For headspace gas chromatographic analysis, the volatile compounds were recovered by porous polymer trap and flushed into a fused silica capillary column at $250^{\circ}C$. Twenty-three GC peaks were identified on the basis of relative retention time of reference compounds and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The results showed that the contents of pentanal and hexanal were linearly increased during storage. A very simple linear relationship was found between organoleptic flavor scores and amounts of two volatile compounds with very high correlation coefficient. This results suggested the possible implication of pentanal and hexanal as an quality index for rancidity evaluation of cottonseed, corn and rapeseed oils.

The effect of fermentation of peanut milk with lactic acid bacteria on n-hexanal content was investigated. Changes in pH, titratable acidity and viable cell populations indicated that Streptococcus salivarius subsp. thermophilus was adapted better than Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus during fermentation. Analysis of headspace volatiles revealed that n-hexanal, which is one of the compounds responsible for undesirable green/beany flavor in peanut milk, completely disappeared as a result of fermentation. S. salivarius subsp. thermophilus was more effective than L. delbrueckii subsp,. bulgaricus in reducing the n-hexanal content. No significant difference was found in water sorption between fermented and unfermented peanut milk.

This study was conducted to examine decay incidence of citrus fruit treated with antifungal patches during short-term storage using 10 kg paper boxes at room temperature. It was investigated for 15 days in 'Iwasaki' and for 30 days in 'Miyagawa' treated with 200 mg/kg and 500 mg/kg patches of hexanal, carvacrol, and cinnamaldehyde alone or mixed. When it was treated with 200 mg/kg in 'Iwasaki, The decay rate of fruit was at 1.0% in carvacrol alone. In 'Miyagawa', The decay rate of fruit showed lower at cinnamaldehyde and hexanal+cinnamaldehyde mixture of 500 mg/kg than others. And also hexanal+cinnamaldehyde mixture of 200 mg/kg was twice lower than others. In conclusion, the mixed antifungal patches was more effective in reducing citrus fruit decay in citrus fruits than alone at room temperature.

In order to study the effects of blanching and germination of soybean on the quality of soymilk, the soybeans were differently treated as follow; (1) blanched for 5 min at $100^{\circ}C$, (2) germinated for 2 days at $25^{\circ}C$, (3) germinated for 2 days and then blanched for 5 min at $100^{\circ}C$. The qualities of various soymilks prepared from the treated soybeans were compared with those of soymilk from the untreated soybeans. Blanching of soybeans decreased yields, solid materials, viscosity, total protein, soluble nitrogen, and total sugar of soymilk but no effect on its free sugar contents, specific gravity, and pH. The blanching, however, improved the sensory properties and decreased the n-hexanal contents of soymilk to about 1/2.4. Germination of soybeans improved the yields, physical, chemical, and sensory properties and decreased the n-hexanal contents of soymilk to about 1/5. The germination plus blanching of soybeans showed kind of combined effects of germination's and of blanching's, resulting in the decrease of n-hexanal to about 1/10 and improvement in sensory properties of soymilk.

Ten commercial activated carbons (ACs) prepared from four different sources (bamboo, wood, peat, and coal) were evaluated for their adsorptive efficiency of six volatile compounds (isoamyl alcohol, hexanal, furfural, ethyl lactate, ethyl octanoate, 2-phenyl ethanol) which were dissolved in a 30% alcoholic model solution. These six volatile compounds are frequently found in alcoholic beverages and possibly contribute to physiological hangover due to their high concentrations. They are also generally regarded as off-flavor compounds at certain levels in alcoholic beverages such as whisky and vodka. Two hundred mL of 30% alcoholic solutions containing these six volatile compounds were treated with 0.2 g of ACs while stirring for 16 hr; the treated solutions were then measured for their adsorptive efficiencies (or removal efficiencies) by gas chromatographic analysis using two different sampling methods (direct liquid injection and headspace-solid phase microextraction). The adsorptive efficiencies of the ACs varied depending on the identity of the volatile compounds and the source material used for making the ACs. Ethyl octanoate, 2-phenyl ethanol, and hexanal were removed at high efficiencies (34-100%), whereas isoamyl alcohol, ethyl lactate, and furfural were removed at low efficiencies (5-13%). AC prepared from bamboo showed a high removal efficiency for isoamyl alcohol, aldehydes (hexanal and furfural), and 2-phenyl ethanol; these major fusel oils have been implicated as congeners responsible for alcohol hangover.

An objective method for measuring rancidity in soybean oil was developed based on the volatile contents obtained by headspace gas chromatographic analysis. Apparatus for headspace volatile cold trapping-thermal desorption was described, designed to collect and analyze volatiles of soybean oil. Samples of commercially processed soybean oil were stored under controlled condition and then evaluated for flavor by a eight member trained panel and for volatile contents by headspace gas chromatographic analysis. Twenty-three GC peaks were identified on the basis of relative retention time of reference compounds and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The volatile compounds identified were autoxidation products of principal unsaturated fatty acids of soybean oil. The simple linear regressions of flavor score with the pentanal or hexanal contents in aged soybean oil gave correlation coefficient of 0.990 and 0.994. respectively. Pentanal and hexanal contents could be used as a potentially useful index for predicting flavor scores of soybean oil.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of beany flavor elimination and the acceptability of tofu prepared with blanched soybean. The results were as follows: 1. The content and me total protein of soymilk prepared with blanched soybean were decreased comparing with those of soymilk prepared with raw soybean. But the yield of tofu was not changed by blanching the soybean. 2. The beany flavor(hexanal, 1-hexanol, and pentanoI) was decreased but the toasted nutty flavor(ethanol and propanol) were increased by blanching the soybean. 3. By heating of soymilk, most of volatile compounds was disappeared, but ethanol, hexanal and 1-hexanol were remained. The hexanal content of tofu prepared with raw soybean was eleven times higher than that of tofu prepared with blanched soybean. 4. The color of tofu prepared with blanched soybean was more yellower than that of control group. At the lower temperature of blending, the texture of tofu was more smooth and elastic. 5. The tofu prepared with blanched soybean was more tasteful.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the change of volatile compounds in Dakgalbi cooked by charcoal broiling. Fresh deboned and marinated chicken meat was cooked by electric-pan frying or charcoal broiling and subsequently irradiated with a dose of 0, 10 and 20 kGy. Volatile components from Dakgalbi were analyzed using solid phase micro-extraction gas chromatography - mass spectrometry (SPME GC-MS) and identified through the comparison of mass spectrum database. SPME GC-MS analysis shows that a total of 32 volatiles were identified. Among them, aldehydes such as hexanal and octanal, which have relevance to off-flavors such as green, paint, metallic, bean and rancid were detected in Dakgalbi cooked by both methods. However, the contents were less detected in the Dakgalbi cooked by charcoal broiling than in the Dakgalbi cooked by electric-pan frying. Gamma-irradiation caused the change in the formation of these aldehydes in cooked Dakgalbi. The irradiation significantly increased the contents of hexanal and octanal in Dakgalbi cooked by electric-pan frying and a similar increase was found in Dakgalbi cooked by charcoal broiling. However, the contents of the off-flavors were much less in the latter. The results suggest that charcoal broiling might be more effective than electric-pan frying for the reduction of the contents of off-flavor such as hexanal and octanal increased in Dakgalbi by gamma-irradiation.
