Characteristics of volatile components in the hydrolysates of Wasabia japonica, horseradish and mustard were investigated by using the head-space gas chromatography. R
g value, (peak area of ipropyl isothiocyanate/that of 3-butenyl isothiocyanate)×100, x value, (peak area of n-butyl isothiocyanate/that of 3-butenyl isothiocyanate)×100, and y value, (peak area of i-propyl isothiocyanate/that of sec-butyl isothiocyanate)×100 were calculated from the peak areas of volatile components detected. R
g value had the tendency of Wasabia japonica_??_mustard>horseradish, x value had Wasabia japonica >horseradish>mustard, and y value had mustard>Wasabia japonica>horseradish. Relation between R
g value, x value and y value derived from the mixture of two materials among above three materials and weight of material in the mixture showed the regular curves, respectively. Accordingly, the miximg ratio in the mixture of two materials could be determined by using above the regular curves. Various fat containing mustand flours showed also the regular R
g and y values, respectively.
