The purpose of this study was to analyze the chemical components of Perilla leaf(frutescens Britton var. scuta Kudo) according to the making process, and to examine Hunter's color value and sensory evaluation of Jasosuksu by extraction time. Perilla leaves were prepared in three types; fresh leaf, dried leaf in the shade and roasted leaf after being dried in the shade in order to make Jasosuksu. The results of the research were as follows: Free sugars(sucrose, glucose, fructose) and organic acids(citric acid, tartaric acid, malic acid, succinic acid) were present in the fresh leaf, dried leaf and roasted leaf. $15{\sim}16$ kinds of amino acid including aspartic acid were determined in the fresh leaf, dried leaf and roasted leaf, and the major free amino acids were serine, aspartic acid, and glutamic acid. The major total amino acids of tile fresh leaf, dried leaf and roasted leaf were glutamic acid, histinine, and glycine. The major fatty acids of Perilla leaves were palmitic acid, linolenic acid, and linolenic acid. The content ratio of linolenic acid in fresh leaves was the highest, but that of palmitic acid was lower than that of dried leaves and roasted leaves. L value, a value, and b value of Perilla leaf were the highest in the roasted leaves followed by the order of dried leaves and fresh leaves. L value and b value of Jasosuksu extracted from roasted leaves were higher than Jasosuksu extracted from dried leaves. The preference of color, flavor, sweetness of Jasosuksu extracted from dried leaves was the highest when extraction time was 10 min. at $70^{\circ}C$, but that of Jasosuksu extracted from roasted leaves was the highest when extraction time was 15 min. at $70^{\circ}C$. The preference of color, flavor, taste of Jasosuksu extracted from roasted leaves was higher than that of Jasosuksu extracted from dried leaves.

As the world population growth and economy develops, the importance of eco-friendly organic waste resource treatment and up-cycling increases. Black soldier fly (BSF) (Hermetia illucens) treats organic waste resources that allows it to be recycled as a feed resource. In this study, we analyzed the nutrients composition, amino acid, and fatty acids of BSF larvae fed three agricultural by-products, namely apple pomace, mandarin waste, and oriental melon waste (mainly generated in South Korea). The highest BSF larvae crude protein and amino acid content was obtained in those fed mandarin waste compared with the other two diets (apple pomace and oriental melon waste). BSF larvae fed apple pomace had the highest crude fat, fatty acid, and lauric acid content compared with the other BSF larvae. Furthermore, all crude protein and fat content of BSF larvae fed the three agricultural by-products exceed that of the original agricultural by-products.

The application of sludge wastes into agricultural fields has been increasing annually in Korea. In particular, sewage sludge application has been widely accepted in decades. Sewage sludge application aid in the recycling of essential nutrients and act as a source of organic matter improving the structure and water-holding properties of the soil. The efficient use of sludge wastes, however, requires an individual assessment of waste products. This study assessed the biological characteristics of organic waste-treated lysimeter soils and develop its indicator to assess the soil health of organic waste-treated lysimeter soils. Several analytical techniques more recently developed such as restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP), phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA), and community level substrate utilization (CLSU) fingerprints allow for detailed analyses of soil microbial communities. PLFA and RFLP was, therefore, used in the study to characterize the microbial communities in soil without the need to isolate individual fungi and bacteria. PLFA, RFLP and CLSU have been utilized to assess microbial characteristics of the lysimeter soils with four different sludge wastes for eight consecutive years. Each of these methods was analyzed for a different aspect of soil microbial characteristics. The study would disclose those methods yielded highly reproductive results for each soil and allow distinguishing the soils based on the structures of specific geneand PLFA-pools more than CLSU fingerprints. PLFA methods, especially, revealed the same relative similarities of the treated soils based on cluster analysis of the biological characteristics. Pig manure compost-treated soil, however, was only the same relative resemblance among the three methods. These results indicated that PLFA easily assessed the biological soil characterization.

This research investigated the physicochemical properties and antioxidant activities of hot air-dried red mustard (Brassica juncea L.) leaf (HR) and freeze-dried red mustard leaf (FR). Crude protein content was highest in FR, and crude fat and carbohydrate contents were highest in HR. However, moisture and crude ash contents were not significantly different between the two drying methods. Total free sugars were higher in HR compared with FR. Sucrose, fructose, and glucose were the major free sugars in both HR and FR. Contents of essential and non-essential amino acids were higher in HR compared with FR. The major organic acid of FR was malic acid, and the major organic acid of HR was malic acid. The contents of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids were higher in HR than in FR. Total mineral contents were higher in FR (10,187.22 mg%) compared with HR (9,815.80 mg%). Major minerals were K, Ca, and Na in the two drying methods. The contents of vitamins C and E in HR were higher than those in FR. Total polyphenol contents showed no significant difference between the two methods. However, total flavonoid contents in HR were higher than in FR. The $IC_{50}$ values of FR and HR in ABTS assay were 0.89 mg/mL and 0.65 mg/mL, respectively. The results of all experiments suggest that HR and FR can be natural candidates as a rich source of antioxidants for further chemical investigation.

Gums, resins and gum-resins represent a variety of plant exudates that are highly prized and are extensively used in various industries. The usage of water soluble gums is growing at faster rate as they are excellent suspending agents, dispersants stabilizing agents, emulsifiers and gel forming agents. The gums are made up of carbohydrate polymers, composed of sugar units glycosidically condensed to form large molecules. Resins are non-volatile products, and oxidative products of terpenes or fatty acids, and are of greater commercial importance. They are soluble in water and contrasted with gums, soluble in organic solvents only.

A surface acoustic wave(SAW) sensor for the detection of odorants has been constructed by depositing various phospholipids and fatty acids onto the surface of the SAW device. Applying the Langmuir-Blodgett technique. it was possible to deposit the optimal number of layer which was found to be between 10 and 20. The characteristics of a SAW device operating at 310 MHz deposited with phosphatidyl choline were analysed. Menthone, amylacetate, acetion, and other organic gases sho7\\\\`ed different affinities to the coated lipids. An explanation is given for differant odorant affinities based on the monolayer properties of phospholipids. The identification of odorants depending on the type of lipid used for coating is discussed in terms of a comparison of their normalized resonant frequency chi It pat terns. Using a number of different lipid-coated SAW devices. odorants can be identified by a computerized pattern recognition algorithm.

Mass cultivation of microalgae is necessary to achieve economically feasible production of microalgal biodiesel. However, the high cost of nutrients is a major limitation. In this study, corncob extract (CCE) was used as an inorganic and organic nutrient source for the mass cultivation of Chlorella vulgaris (C. vulgaris). Chemical composition analysis of CCE revealed that it contained sufficient nutrients for mixotrophic cultivation of C. vulgaris. The highest specific grow rate of C. vulgaris was obtained at pH of 7-8, temperature of $25-30^{\circ}C$, and CCE amount of 5 g/L. In the analysis using various growth models, Luong model was found to be the most suitable empirical formula for mass cultivation of C. vulgaris using CCE. Analysis of biomass and production of triacyglycerol showed that microalgae grown in CCE medium produced more than 17.23% and 3% more unsaturated fatty acids than cells cultured in Jaworski's Medium. These results suggest that growing microalgae in CCE-supplemented medium can increase lipid production. Therefore, CCE, agricultural byproduct, has potential use for mass cultivation of microalgae.

A surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensor for the detection of odorants has been constructed by depositing various phospholipids and fatty acids onto the surface of the SAW device. The characteristics of a SAW device operating at 310 MHz deposited with silicon monoxide were analyzed. Menthone, amylacetate, acetoin, and other organic gases show different affinities to the coated lipids. An explanation is given for different odorant affinities based on the monolayer properties of phospholipids. The identification of odorants depending on the tkpe of lipid used for coating is discussed in terms of the similarity of their normalized resonant frequency shift patterns. Using a number of different lipid-coated SAW devices, odorants can be identified by a computerized pattern recognition algorithm.

Aerobic sequencing batch reactor (SBR) was used to treat screened dairy wastewaters. The study examined the production of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and volatile fatty acids (VFAs) in the aerobic SBR and raw manure effluent storage over 35 days. The reduction of total VFAs in the aerobic SBR was over $59\%$ removal than that of the raw manure. Acetic acid production in the aerobic SBR and the raw manure effluent storage were kept 138 and 286 mg/L. The propionic acid in the aerobic SBR was 1.9 mg/L, while the raw manure effluent storage was 68 mg/L, respectively. The concentrations of VOCs in the aerobic SBR reactor and effluent fill down remarkably than the raw manure storage. The results confirmed that the aerobic biological treatment is an essential requirement for minimizing odor problems.
