  • The present study was aimed to estimate the effect of ensiling period and bacterial inoculants on chemical compositions and fermentation characteristics on rye silage harvested at delayed stage. Rye (Secale cereale L.) was harvested after 20 days of heading stage (29.4% dry matter, DM). The harvested rye forage was applied with different inoculants following: applications of distilled water (CON), Lactobacillus brevis (LBB), Leuconostoc holzapfelii (LCH), or mixture of LBB and LCH at 1:1 ratio (MIX). Each forage was ensiled into 20 L mini bucket silo (5 kg) for 50 (E50D) and 100 (E100D) days in triplicates. The E50D silages had higher in vitro digestibilities of DM (IVDMD, p<0.001) and neutral detergent fiber (IVNDFD, p=0.013), and lactate (p=0.009), and acetate (p=0.011) than those of E100D, but lower pH, lactic acid bacteria (LAB), and yeast. By inoculant application, LCH had highest IVDMD and IVNDFD (p<0.05), while MIX had highest lactate and lowest pH (p<0.05). The CON and LCH in E50D had highest LAB and yeast (p<0.05), whereas LBB in E100D had lowest (p<0.05). Therefore, this study concluded that LCH application improved the nutrient digesbility (IVDMD and IVNDFD) of lignified rye silage, and longer ensiling period for 100 days enhanced the fermentation characteristics of silage compared to ensiling for 50 days.

  • Raising seedlings is important for fruit crops and is especially significant for strawberries as it accounts for 80% of their cultivation. However, there are few studies on raising seedlings of strawberries by hydroponics. Since strawberries show clear differences in growth characteristics based on cultivar, it is necessary to develop suitable fertilizer formula, concentration and pH for each cultivar, and also to examine the amount of nutrient feeding appropriate for each medium type. A key to raising seedlings of strawberries by hydroponics is the development of strategies to manage the concentration of nutrient solution. The mother plants of 'Daewang' strawberries were planted on hydroponics benches filled with cocopeat on March 28, 2012. Three nutrient solution treatments were employed during the term of raising seedlings: a type that supplied EC $0.6dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ nutrient solution for 30 days and only water for 20 days [0.6 (30) + 20]; a type that supplied EC $1.2dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ nutrient solution for 30 days and only water for 20 days [1.2 (30) + 20]; and a type that supplied EC $1.2dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ nutrient solution for 50 days [1.2 (50)]. The plants were then planted on hydroponics benches filled with cocopeat on September 20, and managed with EC $0.6-0.8dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ strawberry nutrient solution developed by Yamazaki. After planting, shoot growth, flowering rate and fruit quality of the first cluster were investigated. The petiole length, leaf length, leaf width and crown diameter showed the highest grown in the [1.2 (50)] treatment, followed by [1.2 (30) + 20], and then [0.6 (30) + 20], indicating that the higher concentration of nutrient solution was preferable for raising seedlings. However, the growth differences among treatments gradually disappeared as growth continued, and the crown diameter especially grew to exhibit almost no difference at all among treatments. The point of flowering came first in [0.6 (30) + 20], followed by [1.2 (30) + 20] and then [1.2 (50)]. The [0.6 (30) + 20] treatment showed much earlier flowering than other treatments, which implies that low-concentration nutrient solution may be beneficial to the flowering of 'Daewang' strawberries while raising seedlings. There was no statistically significant difference among treatments in fruit length, fruit diameter and fruit firmness. Fruit weight in [1.2 (50)] treatment was significantly higher than other treatments. However, soluble solids of fruit was the lowest in [1.2 (50)] treatment. Together, the results of this experiment imply that it is better to supply EC $0.6dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ solution for 30 days and then supply only water for 20 days to adequately manage concentration of nutrient solutions during the period of raising seedlings of strawberries by hydroponics.

  • Innovative capacities and performance are essential for the growth of the IT industry and the development of the Korean economy. Global R&D centers are important sources of innovation in the IT industry. In order to identify the structure of the innovation environment of global R&D centers in IT industry, we conducted a field survey of 50 global R&D centers and 50 global R&D policy experts in IT industry. According to the empirical results obtained using the Linear Structure Model, it is suggested that, first, with regard to a short-term IT global policy, the direction of the Korean government's policy should act as a trigger to connect the research domain and the market domain; second, the government policy should act as a facilitator to connect the development domain and the research domain in the mid-term period; and, finally, the government's R&D policy should serve as a disseminator to connect technological capability and the market space domain in the long-term perspective. For an effective way of internationalizing innovation, IT policy planners should regard global IT R&D centers as the important components of national innovation system and encourage the effective involvements by them in the process of IT industrial innovation.

  • The present study was conducted to elucidate the body modulating function of fermented seafood products. Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) acts in blood pressure regulation, converting angiotensin I to the potent vasoconstrictor angiotensin II and inactivating the vasodilator bradykinin to raise blood pressure. Salted and fermented anchovy which is one of the traditional fermented seafood in Korea was tested for inhibitory activity against ACE. ACE inhibitory activity of salted anchovy during the period of fermentation was increased with the elapse of fermentation days until fermentation of 60 days, but thereafter decreased inversely. When the fermented product was extracted with $50\%$ ethanol, the ACE inhibitory activity was the highest. And the ACE inhibitory activity was proportion to the content of $50\%$ ethanol soluble peptide-nitrogen of the fermented product. From the profiles of gel permeation chromatography on a Bio-Gel P-2 of $50\%$ ethanol soluble fraction obtained from salted and fermented anchovy fermented for 60 days at an ambient temperature, the higher activity fractions were C'($IC_{50}=97{\mu}g\;protein/ml$) and D'($IC_{50}=65{\mu}g\;protein/ml$). Amino acid analysis showed that the large quantify of threonine, glutamic acid, lysine for C' and serine, proline for D', respectively.

  • This paper describes the design and fabrication of an MMIC variable gain LNA for 5GHz wireless LAN applications, using 0.5${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ gate length GaAs MESFET transistors. The advantages of high gain and low noise performance of E-MESFETS and excellent linear performance of D-MESFETS are combined as a cascode topology in this design. Behavioral model equations are derived from the MESFET nonlinear current voltage characteristics by using Turlington's asymptote method in a cascode configuration. Using the behavioral model equations, a 4${\times}$50${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ E-MESFET as a common source amplifier and a 2${\times}$50${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ D-MESFET as a common gate amplifier are determined for the cascode amplifier. The fabricated variable gain LNA shows a noise figure of 2.4dB, variable gain range of more than 17dB, IIP3 of -4.8dBm at 4.9GHz, and power consumption of 12.8mW.

  • The structure of a high-power gain-flattened long wavelength band (L-band) optical amplifier was optimized, which was implemented for 64-channel wavelength division multiplexed optical signals with a channel spacing of 50 GHz. The output characteristics of this L-band amplifier were measured and analyzed. The amplifier of the optimized two-stage amplification configuration had a flattened gain of 20 dB within 1 dB deviation between 1570 and 1600 nm for -2 dBm input power condition. The noise figure under this condition was minimized to within 6 dB in the amplification bandwidth. The gain flattening was realized by considering only the characteristics of gain medium in the amplifier without using additional optical or electrical devices. The proposed amplifier consisted of two stages of amplification stages, each of which was based on the erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) structure. The erbium-doped fiber length and pumping structures in each stage of the amplifier were optimized through experiments.

  • A kojic acid derivative, kojic acid 7-O-$\beta$-D-tetraacetylglucopyranoside(KTG) was synthesized. Regio-and stereo-selective glycosylation at 7-postion in kojic acid with $\beta$-D-pentaacetylglucose was achieved with high yield(80%) by the use of Lewis acid and organic base in nonpolar solvent. KTG was hydrolyzed in methanol by the aid of sodium methoxide to give kojic acid 7-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside(KGP). KGP is freely soluble in water and soluble in methanol and ethanol. Its structure was comfirmed by $^1$H-NMR and $^{13}$ C-NMR. Tyrosinase activity inhibition of KGP was measured with mushroom tyrosinase compared with ascorbic acid, kojic acid and arbutin. KGP showed higher tyrosinase inhibition activity($IC_{50}$/=33.3 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml) than ascorbic acid(63.2 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml) and arbutin(91.8 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml) but lower inhibition activity than kojic acid(8.3 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml). To test free-radical scavenging activity, we used 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH) as a free-radical source. Free-radical scavenging activity of KGP was very low($SC_{50}$/>1000 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml) compared with ascorbic acid($SC_{50}$/=2.68 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml) and arbutin($SC_{50}$/=180$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml). Melanin formation inhibition of KGP was measured in B16 melanoma, compared with kojic acid, arbutin and Vitamin C. Inhibition activity of KGP for melanin formation was not found within test concentrations.

  • A modified design that can reject the nth harmonic components in the Wilkinson power divider is presented. After adding transmission lines of electrical lengths determined by suppression terms between two transformers of the traditional design, a solution of the modified Wilkinson divider can be found. Experimental results show the second and third harmonic suppression to be -45.3 dB and -46.4 dB, respectively, while maintaining the conventional performance at the fundamental frequency.
