Effect of soybean-curd whey on the dongchimi fermentation was investigated by measuring physicochemical and sensory characteristics during fermentation at 1$0^{\circ}C$. Dongchimi was prepared with various levels (0, 2, 5, and 10%) of soybean-curd whey. During fermentation, whereas salt concentrations of dongchimi liquid (1.1 ~ 2.0%) were similar among treatments, greater decrease in pH, but greater increase of total acidity, reducing sugar content, number of lactic acid bacteria and turbidity were observed in dongchimi with soybean-curd whey than those of control from the 2nd to the 9th day of fermentation. But at the 16th day of fermentation, acidity, turbidity and number of lactic acid bacteria of dongchimi with soybean-curd whey were similar to those of control. Reducing sugar content of soybean-curd whey addition groups maintained higher than that of control. The Hunter color L value decreased gradually and that of dongchimi with soybean-curd whey was lower than that of control. b value of control increased, but soybean-curd whey addition groups decreased during fermentation. Hardness and fracturability, determined by texture analyser, were higher in soybean-curd whey addition groups than control. Sensory evaluation showed that the scores of turbidity, sweet taste, savory taste, hardness and over-all preference were significantly higher in soybean-curd whey addition groups than control (p<0.05) ; the highest with 5% soybean-curd whey addition followed by 2% addition. dongchimi with 5% soybean-curd whey addition was the most preferable one with the score of 6.5.

This study was carried out to develop jelly food using dried persimmon. Jelly products were prepared with the ratio of 5, 10, 15, 20 and $25\%$ of dried persimmon extract. Quality characteristics of its products were investigated. Proximate compositions of jelly were $6.74\~14.03\%$ of moisture, $6.83\~7.53\%$ of crude protein, $0.62\~1.16\%$ of crude lipid, $2.61\~13.21\%$ of crude ash, respectively. Water activity and brix $(\%)$ of jelly products ranged from 0.678 and $56.66\%\;to\; 0.748\;and\;76.59\%$. The pH and total acidity of jelly products ranged from 5.30 and $0.06\%$ to 5.38 and $0.09\%$. In the Hunter's color values, L, a and b vaules of jelly products were increased, respectively. Major free-sugar and organic acid of jelly products were maltose ($753\~1,297mg/100g$) and malic acid (263mg/100g in $25\%$ dried persimmon jelly). Major mineral of jelly products was K ($69.64\~154.37mg/100g$). In the texture property, addition of dried persimmon extract decreased gumminess and chewiness. In sensory score of dried persimmon jelly, color, flavor, texture and sweetness of $15\%$ dried persimmon jelly were high score, taste and overall acceptance of jelly products were high score, respectively. Judging from research results of the jelly products, recommended substitution level for addition of dried persimmon extract in jelly was $10\~15\%$.

Japanese spotted mackerels(Scomber tapeinoephalus) were stored at $0^{\circ}C$ for 7days as the maximum, and then, they were stored again at $-3.5^{\circ}C$(partial freezing) or $-20^{\circ}C$(freezing), respectively. During storage by partial freezing, the fishes with a longer period of prestorage at $0^{\circ}C$ showed an earlier increase in the number of bacterial cells on their skin, however, it was not apparent in the freezing storage. K value of the fishes with 7 days of prestorage increased from 20% to 65.4% for 36 days of partial freezing storage, that of the fishes prestored for 0 and 4 days were 39.9% and 53.2% respectively. On contrastly, no drastic increase in K value was observed in the fishes of freezing storage. Content of volatile nitrogen of the fish muscle prestored for 4 days gradually increased from 10mg% to 29.4mg% and 17.2mg% during 36 days of partial freezing and 83 days of freezing storage respectively, that of the fishes with 7 days of prestorage showed no significant increase, moreover, it was decreased within early period of both of the storages. Free drip from the fishes with partial fleering was higher almost 5 times than that from the fishes with freezing, the highest free drip was observed from the fishes with 4 days of prestorage.

This convergence study analyzed the effectiveness of contrast agent reduction by normal saline solution dilution in the computed tomography of arteries of lower limb. 48 patients of 125 cc contrast agent and 30 patients of the same amount divided at a ratio of 7:3 for the contrast agent and normal saline solution were studied. The average attenuation coefficient(HU) and signal to noise ratio(SNR) of abdominal aorta, femoral artery, popliteal artery and posterior tibial artery at each image were evaluated quantitatively and the four criteria in the five point scale was conducted qualitatively by two radiologists and four radiological technologists. In the quantitative evaluation, both HU and SNR had high average score before dilation but there were no statistical significance by independent t-test(p>0.05). In the qualitative evaluation, there were a little differences in the average scores between 4.86~4.77 of original contrast agent and 4.83~4.67 of dilated contrast agent but there were no statistical significance(p>0.05). In the computed tomography of arteries of lower limb, the dilated contrast agent doesn't influence image quality and reduces overall contrast agent and lowers iodine content per unit of molecular therefore will contribute to decrease side effect of contrast agent.

Freeze storage technique is widely used for food processing to keep freshness and quality of the product. This technique was applied to fresh, unshelled groundnut to develop a new type of product which could maintain fresh taste and nutritive values even after several months of storage. The groundnut varieties, Daepungtangkong, Daekwangtangkong and Sindaekwangtangkong were grown at the experimental field of NCES in 1996. Immatured pods or groundnut were harvested around 20 to 3o days before full maturity, washed, and steamed at 100$^{\circ}C$ for 5 min. to stop enzyme activity. After vacuum packing (at -760mmHg for 10 min.) with 0.08mm polyvinyldichloride film, the pods were immediately frozen at -70$^{\circ}C$ for 24h and transfered at -20$^{\circ}C$ for long-term storage. Physico-chemical properties of frozen vegetable groundnut were investigated at 2 months after storage and compared to those of conventionally dried groundnut. After 2 months storage, the thawed kernels were very palatable with softness and fresh taste. Acid value and hardness (measured as the compression force on the probe of a texture analyzer) were much lower in frozen vegetable groundnut than those in the air-dried ones. Presence of free sugars is one of the important factors affecting groundnut taste, and the free sugar contents were considerably decreased in the frozen vegetable groundnut compared to freshly harvested groundnut. But in dried groundnut no free sugar was detected.

Cold-air drying was conducted for a steamed pumpkin-sweet potato slab to improve its quality, convenience, and preference as a snack. A steamed pumpkin-sweet potato slab was dried from 10 to $25^{\circ}C$ for 48 h, and its moisture content, color, texture, and taste at different drying temperatures and drying times were evaluated. The lowest moisture content was 4.98%, at $25^{\circ}C$. The lightness decreased, but the other color values (a, b, and ${\Delta}E$) increased with the increasing drying temperature and drying time. The reducing sugar and soluble solid ranged from 98.7 to 194.75 mg/g and 19-70 $^{\circ}Brix$, respectively. The highest hardness of the steamed pumpkin-sweet potato slab was 23.88 $kg_f/cm^2$, and the springiness and cohesiveness were 91.15 and 98.36% when it was dried at $25^{\circ}C$ for 48 h. The sensory evaluation score was high at $10^{\circ}C$, 40 h and at $25^{\circ}C$, 24 h. The optimum drying condition was predicted at $19^{\circ}C$, 32 h via response surface methodology (RSM).

In order to examine the relationship of fruit abscission and ethylene evolution in 'Jojuro' and 'Imamuraaki' pear trees, the thinning chemicals, ${\beta}$-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA), O, O-dimethyl-O-(3-methyl-4 nitrophenyl) posphorothioate (MEP), 1-naphthyl N-methyl carbamate (carbaryl), and 2-chloroethyl phosphonic acid (ethephon) were applied. Concurrently the effect of calcium acetate on the control of fruit abscission were examined when calcium acetate was added to ethephon and carbaryl. 1. All the applied chemicals (MEP, NAA, carbaryl and ethephon) was effective to abscise fruits in 'Jojuro', and MEP and carbaryl in 'Imamuraaki's. 2. The application of ethephon increased the ethylene evolution but other chemicals did not increase it. 3. There were no significant differences in total sugar contents of fruits by MEP, NAA, carbaryl and ethephon treatments. 4. When the calcium acetate was added to the ethephon and carbaryl, the thinning effects were offsetted. 5. The rate of defoliation due to ethephon treatment was controlled by addition of calcium acetate at 0.1~0.25 M. It was clarified that fruit abscission induced by thinning chemicals except ethephon was not directly related to ethylene production and that degree of fruit thinning can be regulated by addition of calcium acetate to thinning chemicals.

Physicochemical and sensory characteristics of turnip pickle prepared with different pickling spices were investigated. Turnip root slices(4${\times}$1${\times}$0.5 cm) were salted with NaCl and CaCl$_2$, and then soaked into pickling solution added to commercial (pickle P) or manufactured (pickle M) pickling spice, and then stored at 2$0^{\circ}C$. Throughout the whole storage periods, the acidity, pH, saltiness and reducing sugar content of two pickles were 3.1∼3.5%, 1.4∼1.7, 0.2∼0.6% and 25.2∼30.4 mg/mL, respectively. There were no significant differences between two pickles in saltiness, anthocyanin, reducing sugar content, color(Hunter L, a and b value) and hardness. However, acidity of pickle M was higher than that of pickle P throughout the storage time. Sensory results showed that the best edible time was the 14th day of storage, and at that time, scores of pickle M was higher in 리avor(7.3 and 6.9), taste(7.8 and 5.4) and over-all preference(8.0 and 6.1) than those of pickle P, and pickle M maintained good sensory qualities until 28th day of storage, compared to pickle P(p<0.05).
