A reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography method with electrospray ionization and detection by mass spectrometry is described for the simultaneous determination of doxifluridine and its active metabolite 5-flu-orouracil (5-FU) in monkey serum. The method has greater sensitivity and simpler process than previous published methods with good accuracy and precision. A proper liquid/liquid extraction was used to extract simultaneously doxifluridine and 5-FU which has considerable difference in the polarity. Extracts were analyzed using LC/MS/MS providing a short analysis time within 5 min. The lower limit of quantification was validated at 10.0 ng/ml of serum for both doxifluridine and 5-FU. Accuracy and precision of quality control (QC) samples for both analytes met FDA Guidance criteria of ±15% for average QC accuracy with coefficients of variation less than 15%. The method will be applicable for preclinical studies and bioequivalence studies.

We investigated the quality of vaporized liquid of water-boiled pine needle in the aspects of drinking conformity and aroma characteristics. As a result, there was no hazardous component in the assessment for 45 types of ingredients. Especially, inorganic components such as arsenic (As), lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), and cadmium (Cd) which are harmful to human body were not detected. Additionally, we observed that other ingredients were present within the standard level suitable for drinking. The total 34 volatile components of the vaporized liquid of water-boiled pine needle were identified by dynamic head-space method. Fenchol, bomeol $\beta-fenchyl$ alcohol and bomyl acetate were the major volatiles and composed of 6.7, 13.1, 26.6 and $16.2\%$ of total volatiles, respectively.

The quality characteristics of Yakju and survival rate of yeast were investigated by modifying the drying method for the cold adapted yeast strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae Y297 (SCY297). Viability and fermentation characteristics of the freeze-dried, air blast-dried, and liquid SCY297 cultures were compared after storing them at $25^{\circ}C$. In addition, 5% skimmed milk, ${\alpha}$-lactose, or trehalose was added as a protective agent for examining the effects of drying methods. During the 15-week storage period, the liquid and freeze-dried SCY297 cultures containing a protective agent showed a survival rate of 80%. However, the air blast-dried SCY297 culture showed 80% survival rate only in the skimmed milk supplemented group. Compared to the untreated cells, the acidity and amino acidity of Yakju prepared using freeze-dried or air blast-dried cultures of SCY297 increased by 2 fold and 5.7 fold respectively, while the alcohol content decreased by 5.07%. Compared to the untreated cells, the pH and amino acidity of Yakju prepared using the liquid culture of SCY297 increased by 1.5 fold and 2.5 fold respectively. Although the alcohol content decreased by 2.9%, decrease rate was lower than that observed for the freeze-dried and air blast-dried yeast cultures. Therefore, the results of this study showed that using a liquid starter culture was more advantageous than using the conventional solid culture.

This study was activity of ${\alpha}-amylase$, glucoamylase of liquid Nuruk prepared using liquid Nuruk (NK) and Aspergillus kawachii (AK), Aspergillus niger (AN), Aspergillus oryzae (AO), Monascus kaoliang (MK). To investigate the relationship between the enzymatic activity and the total sugar content of liquid Nuruk depending on the types of Nuruk molds and the degree of rice-polishing. The activity of ${\alpha}-amylase$ depending on the types of Nuruk molds was shown to be 8.82, 8.72 units/mL in AN and AK treatments in brown rice liquid Nuruk at 24 hours after incubation, as the degree of rice-polishing increased, the activity of ${\alpha}-amylase$ was significantly lower (p<0.05). When brown rice was incubated in AN, it showed 8.83 units/mL at 48 hours after incubation, which was the highest activity, but there was no significantly difference (p<0.05), as the degree of rice- polishing was higher, the activity of ${\alpha}-amylase$ was lower. The activity of glucoamylase depending on the degree of rice-polishing showed 3,013 units/mL in AO treatment in brown rice liquid Nuruk at 24 hours after incubation, and the enzymatic activity was significantly higher (p<0.05). As the degree of rice-polishing increased, the activity of glucoamylase decreased, so liquid brown rice Nuruk showed the highest enzymatic activity, liquid white rice Nuruk was the lowest enzymatic activity. The highest enzymatic activity appeared in liquid Nuruk with brown rice at 48 hours after incubation. The activity of ${\alpha}-amylase$, glucoamylase showed higher enzymatic productivity as the degree of rice-polishing was lower, and there was an inverse correlation with the total sugar content.

In this study, the physical and sensorial properties of the meat analog were studied for the purpose of improving sensory preference and mimicking animal meat. The meat analog was made with different types of liquid materials such as oil, water, lecithin, polysorbate 80, or the emulsion of these components. At the aspect of density, the sample mixed with oil was higher than the sample mixed with water. Cooking loss value was higher at the sample with water than the sample with oil and this was the result opposite to the liquid holding capacity analysis. Also, texture profile analysis result showed that the samples with medium chain triglycerides (MCT) oil only showed the highest values in all attributes except for adhesiveness. Principal component analysis was carried out to analyze sensorial properties and it showed that the overall acceptance was high when the juiciness and softness increased. This result was highly related with the addition of emulsion. Therefore, emulsion technology can be a good candidate for improving the quality of meat analog and for mimicking the taste of animal meat.

In this study, processing of dried products of adcidian , Haocynthia roretzi, were investigated, which has been cultured in the south and east coast of Korea in recent years. Raw ascidians were shucked , gutted, soaked and then drained. Seven kinds of dried ascidian meats were prepared : boiled in 5% slat solution for 10 min and hot-air dried (A)-sun dried (B) or hot-air dried (C) after soaking for 1 min in 0.2% NaHSO3 solution , sun dried (D) or hot -air dried (G) after treating for 15 sec in 5% liquid smoke solution, and sun dried (E) or hot -air dried (F) after blanching for 30 sec in boiling 5% salt solution added with 0.2% NaHSO3. The moisture contents, water activity of the products showed little change and VBN gradually increased during storage at 25 $\pm$2$^{\circ}C$. The TBA and POV values of the liquid smoked dried ascidian (product D, G0 were considerably lower than those of others, In fatty acid composition 22 : 6 , 20 : 5 : 16: 0 and 18 : 1 acid were predominant. Conditions adopted in products D and G had a good antioxidative effect on highly unsatuated fatty acids during the storage. The contents of inosine and AMP of products were higher than those of other nucleotide and their related compounds. Judging from the results of chemical experiments and sensory evaluation, the sample A, D and G were most desirable and they could be preserved more than 120 days at room temperature(25$\pm$2$^{\circ}C$).

As a first step toward identifying a new method for testing sea snail tissue for toxins, and thus prevent food poisoning due to the ingestion of contaminated snails, we measured the tetramine [$(CH_3)_4N^+$] contents of sea snails from the Korean coast using both liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and ion chromatography. For tetramine tested, good linearity ($r^2$ = 0.9996) was observed between the amounts in the injected samples and the peak areas of standard toxins, which ranged from 0.1 to 100 ng. The recovery (%) of tetramine from spiked tissue and mid-gut gland samples ranged from 84.0 to 95.3%. The quantitative results for tetramine using this method were in good agreement with the theoretical values. LC-MS/MS has both high sensitivity and selectivity, which makes it possible to measure trace quantities of tetramine in samples.
