Changes of volatile components in modified oleoresin red pepper during cooking at high temperature were investigated. Dried red pepper was milled to 100mesh of size particle and oily compounds were extracted by reduced pressure steam distrillation. The rest part was reextracted and concentrated. The extracts were combined. The same volume of water and 4% of polyglycerol condensed ricinoleate (PGDR) were added to the combined extract, and emulsified to make oleoresin red pepper 119 volatile compounds were separated from the dried red pepper and oleoresin and 35 components were identified in both samples. The major flavor compounds were identified to be 2-methoxy-phenol, 2, 6-bis(1, 1-dimethylethyl)-4-methyl-phenol, 1, 4-dimethylbenzene, thylbenzene, 1, 2-benzenedicarboxylic acid, 2-methoxyl-4-methylphenol, 4-ethyl-2-methoxy-phenol, and 5- methyl-2-furancarboxyaldehyde, and their transferal from raw red pepper to oleresin was low. 93 voltilie compounds were isolated after 3 hours cooking at 100 and 82 volitile compounds were separated after that at $150^{\circ}C$. Degeneration of volatile compounds was peculiarly proportional to the temperature of cooling. Capsaicin was relatively stable during cooking and remaining ratio after cooking at 100 and $150^{\circ}C$ was 84.7% and 73.3%. respectively. Oleoresin from red pepper had a little antioxidation effect at $100^{\circ}C$ cooking, but, antioxidation effect at $150^{\circ}C$ cooking was not shown due to degradation of capsaicin.

Thermal stability and quality change during storage of red pepper oleoresin were studied. Upon heat treatment, carotenoids in oleoresin from red pepper were more stable under nitrogen than air. In the thermal stabilities, the presence of air at $100^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours and 10 hours were 69.1% and 42.3%, respectively ; whereas, in the presence of nitrogen, 95.4% and 92.3%, respectively. In contrast, capsaicin was comparatively stable upon heat treatment in the presence of air. The retentions of capsaicin at $100^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours and 10 hours were 84.7% and 81.3% with air, those were 90.7% and 87.5% with nitrogen, respectively. Color appearance showed close relation to the stability of total carotenoids during 60 days storage at varying temperatures ; $5^{\circ}C,\;25^{\circ}C\;and\;40^{\circ}C$ were 69.4%, 48.0% and 35.1%, respectively. The degradation of total carotenoids during storage could be interpreted as a first order reaction. The activation energy obtained from the Arrhenius plot was 5.03 kcal/mole. Conversely, capsaicin was very stable under storage temperatures. More than 90% of capsaicin was remained upon completion of storage. In the mean time, pH of oleoresin was increased slightly as increasing storage temperatures.

This experiment was carried out to study the preparations of red pepper oleoresin, the effects of pH and heat treatment on the stabilities of capsanthin and capsaicin in oleoresin state, and the interacting effects of ascorbic acid, metal salts and EDTA on the stabilities of capsanthin in the oleoresin-linoleate aqueous model system. The results were as follows: 1. Acetone was the most effective solvent to extract capsanthin and capsaicin from red pepper powder. The yield of oleoresin extracted with acetone was 14.27%. 2. Capsaicin was more stable at high temperature than capsanthin in oleoresin state. Capsanthin and capsaicin in oleoresin state were comparatively stable in the range (ron) pH 3 to pH 8. 3. Ascorbic acid acted as a prooxidant on the capsanthin oxidation reaction at concentrations up to $10^{-3}M$, but acted as an antioxidant at $10^{-1}M$. 4. The addition of $Cu^{+2}M$ and $Fe^{+3}M$ ions at all concentration increased the prooxidant activity on the degradation of capsanthin in oleoresin state. 5. EDTA showed a strong antioxidation the stability of capsanthin in oleoresin state.

Natto is a Japanese tradiational food made from whole soybeans by the fermentation of Bacillus natto. This study was attempted to improve the taste of Natto, garlic(2%) and red pepper oleoresin(0.2%) were added. Conventional Natto(N-1), garlic Natto(N-2), red pepper oleoresin Natto(N-3), garlic and red pepper oleoresin Natto(N-4) were prepared. Volatile flavor components, fatty acid, organic acid, pH and titratable acdity in all samples were investigated. The experimental results revealed the presence of 62 volatile components in conventional Natto. Among there, the major flavor compounds were identified to be 2, 5-dimethylpyrazine, trimethyl-pyrazine, 2, 6-bis91, 1-dimethylethyl) phenol. Seventy-one volatile compounds were detected in N-2, and major compounds were identified to be methyl-2-propenyl disulfide, 2, 6-bis(1, 1-dimethylethyl)phenol and 2, 5-dimethylpyrazine. The amounts of volatile compounds, 2-methyoxyphenol and 1, 2-benzenedicarboxylic acid increased by addition of garlic, where as, 1,2 -propanediol, 1-hexanol and 2, 5-dimethylpyrazine decreased. The compounds, 4, 5-dihydroxy-5-propyl-1H-pyrazole, 1, 1, 3-trimethylcyclopentane were identified in N-3. The compounds, such as trimethylpyrazine, 3-ethyl-2,5-dimethylpyrazine increased by addition of red pepper oleoresin, whereas 1,2-propanediol, 1-hexanol and 2,5-dimethylpyrazine decreased. Fatty acid compositions were mainly consisted of linoleic acid(43.66~55.89%) and followed by oleic, palmitic, linolenic, stearic, arachidic, myristic acid. The organic acids we4re identified to be citric(28.2~30.6), acetic(50.0~73.3) and pyroglutamic acid(2.1~3.7).

Microwave-assisted extraction (MAE, 2,450 MHz), which is known as a rapid and more environmental-friendly process than current extraction methods, was applied to oleoresin extractions from dried pepper. As fundamental parameters of MAE, optimum conditions were found, such as 60 mesh in particle size of the sampes, 1:10(g/mL) powders was high at lower concentrations of ethanol, whereas capsanthin content remarkably increased at more than 75% of ethanol concentration. The results showed that MAE of oleoresin and capsanthin from red pepper powders was successful in 3 to 5 min of the extraction time.

The antioxidant effect of capsaicin, the pungent principle of red pepper and oleoresin extracted from red pepper was investigated by measuring TBA(Thiobarbituric acid) value and hydroperoxide value using CL-HPLC(Chemiluminescence-high performance liquid chromatography) during storage at $30^{\circ}C$. The antioxidant activity of capsaicin and oleoresin was compared with erythorbate already used. The antioxigenic effect of capsaicin and oleoresin was very effective to the preservation of ground bacon belly meat. Especially, oleoresin have a remarkable effect to prevent the peroxidation of ground bacon belly meat. Capsaicinoids were known as the main additives in Korea, but the antioxidant activity of meat products has not been reported. So, we suggest that capsaicin, especially, oleoresin combined with other natural antioxigenic substances as like tocopherol may be effective to prevent the oxidation of ground bacon belly meat.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Natto supplementation on lipid metabolism in rats. Male rats were fed on casein(CON group), steamed soybean(SS group), conventional Natto(N-1 group), garlic(2%) added Natto(N-2 group), red pepper oleoresin(0.2%) added Natto(N-3 group) and galic(2%) and red pepper oleoresin(0.2%) added Natto(N-4 group) as a protein source for 4 weeks. Serum and liver cholesterol levels were significantly lower in the experimental groups than in the control group. Especially, dietary N-2, N-3 and N-4, compared with CON, reduced markedly the concentration of serum cholesterol. The concentration of serum HDL-cholesterol was higher markedly in the N-4 group than in the control group. The concentration of serum triglyceride was significantly lower in the N-1, N-2, N-3 and N-4 groups than in the control group. Garlic and red pepper added Natto fed groups(N-2, N-3, N-4) showed more excreion of fecal bile acid when compared with those values of casein fed group. The results indicate that spice added Natto supplementation may have more beneficial roles in lipid metabolism through reduced cholesterol levels and increased fecal bile acid excretion.

A new method for the quantitative determination of capsaicinoids in microcapsule has been developed. Among seventeen solvents tested for solubilizing wall material (gum arabic and modified starch) of microcapsule, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was selected as an optimal solvent. The most appropriate mixing ratio of microcapsule to DMSO for solubilizing wall material was 1 to 10(w/v). Appropriate carriersolubilizing temperature and time were $55^{\circ}C$ and 30 min, respectively. Also conditions for extracting oleoresin from the solubilized microcapsule were studied. The mixing ratio of ethanol to DMSO was optimal at 8 to 1(v/v). Optimized vortexing time was 5 min at 40㎐. Pecipitant was obtained by centrifugation at 21000 rpm for 15 min. The precipitant was reextracted with ethanol. The extracted supernatants were combined and adjusted to final volume of 25 ml. Extracted solutions were analyzed for quantitation of total capsaicinoids by employing HPLC and for quantitation of total carotenoids by spectrophotometric method. This method can be used to monitor changes of capsacinoid during manufacturing or storage of red pepper oleoresin microcapsule powder.
