To expand the utility of barley the experiments on the extrusion characteristics of barley flour for snack processing were carried out and the effects of the extrusion conditions on the quality of the extrudates were investigated. The optimum moisture content of barley flour for snack processing was 20%. The moisture content and the density of the extrudates decreased with increasing extrusion temperature and decreasing die size. The die swell ranged from 0.98 to 2.18 according to various extrusion conditions and decreased with increasing temperature above $150^{\circ}C$. The lightness, redness and yellowness increased at higher temperature. The water absorption index and the water solubility index showed their maximum values at $180^{\circ}C$.The gelatinization degree of the extrudates increased with increasing temperature. The fracture fore, Young's modulus and maximum fiber stress decreased, but the deformation to fracture increased, with increasing temperature and decreasing die size. The yield force in puncture test showed lower values at higher temperature. The size and the fraction of the air cells increased with increasing temperature and decreasing die size. The optimum extrusion conditions of barley for snack processing were at the temperature of $180^{\circ}C$, with the die size of 4.5mm when processed at 160 rpm.

The study was conducted to investigate the possibility that epigenetic DNA methylation causes tree phenotypic variation in autotetraploids through evaluating the phenotypic variation and DNA methylation in autotetraploids occurred spontaneously from diploid trifoliate orange. Chromosome analysis confirmed that fourteen trifoliate orange trees of selected by flow cytometry were tetraploids (2n = 4X = 36) without any aneuploids. Chromomycin A3 staining determined that these trees were all autotetraploid with doubled chromosome set. Tree phenotypes, such as tree height and width, branching number, length, and angle, internode length, and leaf characteristics, varied in the autotetraploids. Chlorophyll indices were diverse in the autotetraploids, but photosynthetic rates were not significantly different. In addition, a wide range of variation was observed in stomatal density and guard cell length. Analysis of global cytosine DNA methylation showed that there was a variation of the methylation level in autotetraploids. More than half of 14 autotetraploids had at least 2 times higher methylation level than diploid trifoliate orange. The results indicate that tree phenotypic variation in autotetraploids might be related to global DNA methylation for reducing gene redundancy.

This study is aimed to identify the method to use the CaO-$Al_2O_3$ system of rapidly cooled steel making slag (RCSS) as the environment-friendly inorganic accelerating agent by analyzing its physical and chemical properties. The fraction of rapidly cooled steel making slag is distinguished from its fibrous, and the contents of CaO and $Fe_2O_3$ are inversely proportional across different fractions. In addition, as the content of CaO decreased and the content of $Fe_2O_3$ increased, the loss ignition tended to become negative (-) and the density increased. The pore distribution by mercury intrusion porosimetry is very low as compared to the slowly cooled steel-making slag, which indicates that the internal defect and the microspore rate are remarkably lowered by the rapid cooling. To analyze the major minerals the rapidly cooled steel-making slag, XRD, f-CaO quantification and SEM-EDAX analysis have been performed. The results shows that f-CaO does not exist, and the components are mainly consisted of $C_{12}A_7$ and reactive ${\beta}-C_2S$.

Mesoporous Pt-Au alloy films were successfully fabricated on ITO-coated glass by electrodeposition method using tri-blockcopolymer (P123) as a templating agent. The electrolyte consisted of 10 mM hydrogen hexachloroplatinate ($H_2PtCl_6$), 10 mM hydrogen tetrachloroaurate ($HAuCl_4$), and proper amount of P123. For comparison, control samples were electrodeposited without $HAuCl_4$ and P123. Film composition was determined by EDS(Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy), and the mesoporous structure was confirmed by TEM(Transmission Electron Microscopy). SEM(Scanning Electron Microscopy) was utilized to examine surface morphology, and it was observed that the addition of P123 affected the particle growth, resulting in the significant change of surface morphology. Methanol oxidation and CO oxidation were carried out to investigate electrocatalytic activities of synthesized samples. It was observed that the catalytic activity was strongly dependent on the film compositions. Compared with nonporous electrode prepared without P123 templating, mesoporous films prepared with P123 templating showed much higher catalytic activities and stability for both methanol oxidation and CO oxidation. These enhanced electrocatalytic activities were due to the high surface area and facilitated charge transfer of mesoporous films.

The goal of suction denture is to enhance retention of dentures by the formation of negative pressure between the denture base and the underlying tissue and sealing around the denture by the mucosa. This patient has been converted to a completely edentulous state after the extraction of residual teeth. Fabrication of suction denture was planned because it was estimated that the conventional compete would be hard to achieve retention due to the absorption of residual ridge and lack of sublingual fold. Through appropriate clinical and laboratory technique such as preliminary impression on the mandibular rest position, provisional vertical dimension determination with Centric Tray^® (Ivoclar Vivadent AG, Schaan, Liechtenstein), closed mouth definitive impression and jaw relation record using individual tray with Gnathometer M^® (Ivoclar Vivadent AG, Schaan, Liechtenstein), artificial teeth arrangement considering stability of the denture, and proper polymerization technique that minimizes polymerization shrinkage, restoring the patient with suction denture resulted in satisfaction throughout the function and asesthetics.

The degradation characteristics of cross-linked lactide/hyaluronic acid (LA/HA) membranes were investigated for purpose of applying to tissue engineering. The lactide/hyaluronic acid cross-linked with 1,3-butadiene diepoxide (BD) and 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethyl aminopropyl) carbodiimide (EDC) was degradated in deionized water in water bath at $37^{\circ}C$. As the LA/HA mole ratio or crosslinking agent concentration decreased, the degradation rate of the crosslinked membranes increased. In order to investigate the structure change of the membrane in the degradation process, the control sample and 3, 6, 9 days-degradated samples were analysed by the nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. In case of the membranes crosslinked with EDC, the HA-EDC bonding structure was degradated slowly whereas the HA-LA bonding structure was degradated quickly and dissappeared completely after 6 days. In case of the membranes crosslinked with BD, all the crosslinked bonding structure degradated slowly. The HA-BD bonding structure maintained its original state about 89, 83% in case of 3, 6 days-degardated samples respectively whereas the HA-LA bonding structure maintained its original state about 83, 65%. The scanning electron microscopy of the degradated membranes showed that the pore density in the surface, and the structure in the surface and cross section, of the before and after-degradation membranes did not change greatly, so the membranes was shown to be applied to materials for tissue engineering.

In order to investigate the effects of substrate bias voltage on the formation of$ZnS-SiO_2$ protective film in phase change optical disk by R.F. magnetron sputtering method, thin dielectric film was formed on Si wafer and Corning glass by using ZnS(80mol%)-$SiO_2$(20mol%)t arget under argon gas. In this study, the Taguchi experimental method was applied in order to obtain optimum conditions with reduced number of experiments and to control numerous variables effectively. At the same time this method can assure the reproducibility of experiments. Optimum conditions for film formation obtained by above method were target RF power of 200 W. substrate RF power of 20 W, Ar pressure of 5 mTorr. sputtering time of 20 min.. respectively. The phase of specimen was determined by using XRD and TEM. The compositional analysis of specimen was performed by XPS test. In order to measure the thermal resistivity of deposited specimen, annealing test was carried out at $300^{\circ}C$ and $600^{\circ}C$. For the account of void fraction in thin film, the Bruggeman EMA(Effective Medium Approximation) method was applied using the optical data obtained by Spectroscopic Ellipsometry. According to the results of this work, the existence of strong interaction between bias voltage and sputtering time was confirmed for refractive index value. According to XRD and TEM analysis of specimen, the film structure formed in bias voltage resulted in more refined structures than that formed without bias voltage. But excess bias voltage resulted in grain growth in thin film. It was confirmed that the application of optimum bias voltage increased film density by reduction of void fraction of about 3.7%.

In order to make the electroconductive $Si_3N_4$-TiN composities, the Si-Ti(N) compacts were nitrided at $1450^{\circ}C$ for 20hours, and then they were post-sintered by a gas-pressure-sintering technique at 1TEX>$1950^{\circ}C$ for 3.5 hours. As starting powders, commercial si powder of about $10\mu\textrm{m}$, two types of Ti powders of 100 and 325 mesh, and fine-sized TiN of $2.5\mu\textrm{m}$ powders were used. In the $Si_3N_4$-TiN sintered bodies used Ti powders, the relative density and fracture strength and electrical conductivity are low due to the existence of large amounts of coarse pores. However, in the $Si_3N_4$-TiN composite used TiN powder, the fracture toughness, fracture strength and electrical resistivity were $5.0MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$, 624MPa and $1400{\omega}cm$, respectively. The dispersion of TiN particles in the composite inhibited the growth of $Si_3N_4$ in the shape of rod and made strong strain field contrasts at the $Si_3N_4$-TiNinterfaces. It was recognized that microstructural control is required to improve the electrical conductivity and mechanical properties of $Si_3N_4$-TiN composites by dispersing TiN particles homogeneously.
