The contents of organic acid in Korean apple juice were analyzed by HPLC using YMC-peak ODS-AQ column and enzymatic assay. Model apple juices were prepared at the laboratory and commercial apple juices were purchased from the market. Individual organic acid contents were as follows: DL-malic acid 62~402mg%, L-malic acid 48~360mg%, citric acid 1.81~15.74mg%, fumaric acid nd~0.50mg%. Together, these tests gave useful information about the quality and authenticity of a particular apple juice smaple. The presence of D-malic acid was a clear indication of adulteration because this isomer did not occur naturally. Fumaric acid and citric acid levels above trace amounts were also inconsistent with pure apple juice.

In order to predict the chromatogram for organic acid in ion chromatography, Langmuir isotherm parameters were obtained by Retention Time Method (RTM) and moment method. Ion chromatography analysis for formic acid was performed and compared with theoretically predicted profiles under isocratic condition. Band profiles were estimated with the equilibrium-dispersive model of chromatography using a PDEsolver Macsyma . The relationship between the characteristics of chromatogram and the variable operating condition in chromatography such as the flow rate, ionic strength and injection volume was studied. Satisfactory agreement was observed between the experimental and the estimated chromatograms with parameters obtained form the moment method.

The organic acids in 3 kinds of medicinal herbal extracts were screened and compared each other according to their organic acid contents by an efficient gas chromatographic method. It involves solid-phase extraction of organic acids using Chromosorb P with subsequent conversion to stable tert-butyldimethysilyl derivatives for the direct analysis by capillary column gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Total of 24 organic acids were reproducibly identified from 3 kinds of herbal extracts. When the GC profiles were simplified to their retention index spectra, characteristic patterns were obtained for each herb sample. As expected, three kinds of herbal extracts showed three distinct patterns.

This study attempted to set up reasonable extraction time of Omija that was put in water for the various components to soak out. Changes of free sugars, organic acids, reducing sugar, total acid and tannin in Omija with various extraction times were investigated (together with the analysis of each components in Omija fruit). 1. High Performance Liquid Chromatography showed fructose, glucose, and sucrose to be the major free sugars of the Omija fruit. Free sugars and reducing sugar value in Omija beverage increased gradually in according with the extraction time, and marked 75.6% per total free sugars and 82.1% per total reducing sugar at 12 hours. 2. Gas Chromatography showed lactic acid, oxalic acid, fumaric acid, levulinic acid, succinic acid, malic acid, citric acid and pyroglutamic acid to be the major organic acids of the Omija fruit. Organic acids and total acids value in Omija beverage increased gradually on proportion to extraction time, and marked 97.0% per total organic acids at 9 hours and 79.0% per total acids at 12 hours. 3. Tannin content in Omija beverage was increased when extraction time was longer but it showed a low percentage as compared with the reducing sugar and total acid. Tannin content marked 48.8% per total tannin at 12 hours. 4. Sensory evaluation revealed that !1 hours of extraction produced the best quality products based in taste, flavor, color and over-all acceptability, considering the data, it seems possible to conclude that the optimum of time for extraction of Omija to water is 9 hours.

Nonvolatile organic acids were determined in raw Chinese cabbage, Kimchis fermented at $6^{\circ}{\sim}7^{\circ}C$ and at $22^{\circ}{\sim}23^{\circ}C$. Total acids were isolated by ion-exchange chromatography and quantitative determination of individual acids was performed by silicic acid partition column chromatography. Acids were identified qualitatively by paper chromatography. Palatability of Kimchis was evaluated by nine pannels. Results were as follows: Maleic, fumaric, lactic, succinic, malonic, oxalic, glycolic, malic, citric, tartaric, sulphuric and phosphoric acid were found in raw Chinese cabbage. Kimchis fermented at $6^{\circ}{\sim}7^{\circ}C$, and at $22^{\circ}{\sim}23^{\circ}C$. In raw Chinese cabbage, most of organic acids were in salt form and malic acid was highest in amount. In Kimchi fermented at $6^{\circ}{\sim}7^{\circ}C$, the amount of lactic acid and succinic acid was higher than that in Kimchi fermented at $22^{\circ}{\sim}23^{\circ}C$, and, tartaric, oxalic, malic, malonic, maleic, glycolic and fumaric acids were less than those in Kimchi fermented at $22^{\circ}{\sim}23^{\circ}C$. Kimchi fermented at $6^{\circ}{\sim}7^{\circ}C$ had a more flavorous sour taste than Kimchi fermented at $22^{\circ}{\sim}23^{\circ}C$. It is assumed that large amount of lactic acid and succinic acid in Kimchi fermented st $6^{\circ}{\sim}7^{\circ}C$ have a connection with flavorous sour taste.
