Yogurt was prepared from skim milk added with 1, 2, 4 or 6% of rice- or skim milk powders and commercial lactic acid bacterial starters. Changes in pH, titratable acidity, viable cell counts, viscosity, organic acid contents and carbohydrates during fermentation were monitored and its sensory evaluation was also performed. The optimum level of additives such as rice- and skim milk powders for yogurt manufacture was selected. Fermentation properties of yogurt added with rice and skim milk powders were studied. The control yogurt reached pH 4.5 after 10 hours of fermentation, whereas the samples added with 4 or 6% rice powders reached pH 4.5 in 6 hours and those added with skim milk powder reached in 8 hours. After 4 hours of fermentation, the control yogurt reached a titratable acidity at 1.0 %, whereas other samples exceeded 1.0%. After 4 hours of fermentation, the viable cell counts in the samples added with 4% rice powders were the highest. At the level of 4% rice powders, the curd viscosity decreased. Except for the sample added with 6% skim milk powders, all the samples produced higher lactic acid during fermentation, and galactose level in yogurt was the highest when added with 4% rice powder or 6% skim milk powder. In overall sensory evaluation using 5 parameters, the sensory scores of all the yogurts were not significantly different. However, the sample added with 4% skim milk powders was the best for color and overall acceptability. The sample added with 4% rice powders was the best for the flavor and texture. From this experiment, the optimun level of additives such as rice or skim milk powders was selected to be 4%.

This discussion presents the results obtained from the implementation of a self-discovery career program using photo diaries and picture books. The program was conducted with 34 college students in 2015 during the 2nd semester of the liberal arts class. The program guided college students, who are faced with career decisions before employment, with information that helped them to understand their individual characteristics. Therefore, they could identify the jobs they aspired for or would be successful in based on that information. At this time, we believed that literature that is based on the essence of human life would be helpful. As a result, college students understood their personality type through the 1 st, 2nd, and 3rd stages of the self-development process and recognized the aspects of themselves which they had previously misunderstood, which they did not know, and which they already knew. This aided them in their career exploration. Therefore, the results showed that although self-discovery career programs based on literature are in their nascent stage, they facilitate college students in their career exploration.

In this paper, 2-dimensional backtracking method for ultrasonic signals. Ultrasonic sensors are a common technology used in industrial fields as many studies have been conducted on distance measurement and indoor location tracking using transmission and reception devices in pairs. A method for tracking a signal of an arbitrary ultrasonic transmission device on a 2D plane using only a receiver of an ultrasonic signal is proposed. In order to track the ultrasonic signal, the receiver receives the signal by making at least three. The three receivers may calculate a direction and a distance using a time difference in which the ultrasound reception sound is reached. The existing method of tracking signal sources using ultrasonic waves has a problem of time synchronization of devices because the transceivers must be paired or installed independently for each sensor. In order to solve this problem, the distance of the ultrasonic receiver is minimized, and it is configured as one device. The sensor installed as one device may be processed by one operator, thereby solving the time synchronization problem. To increase time difference accuracy, high-speed 32-bit timers with high time resolution can be used to quickly calculate and track distances and directions.

An engineering scale test, which is called KENTEX, was carried out to understand and to analyze the coupled thermal, hydrological and mechanical phenomena in the engineered barrier system(EBS) of Korean reference disposal system. Using the experimental data obtained from KENTEX, the water saturation processes in bentonite could be analyzed. From the comparison between the model calculation using ABAQUS and the experimental results, the difference of the water content between them in the unsaturating part was large because the drying phenomena due to moisture redistribution by the temperature gradient could not be included in the model. In the saturating part, the difference of the water content between them was decreased gradually and showed to be small in the full saturation. And the time of about 95% saturation could be estimated about 500 days from the model calculation and experimental results. Also it could be known that the moisture redistribution in the unsaturated part could not be affected on the saturation time of bentonite in the repository. Therefore, it is considered that this model could be used to quantitatively predict the water saturation time in bentonite as EBS for the disposal system.

Effects of soaking time and particle size on physicochemical properties of nonwaxy rice flour were investigated. Nonwaxy rice grains were soaked at $4^{\circ}C$ for 0, 1, 12, and 24 hr, dried at room temperature, and milled, Resulting flours were passed through 45-mesh ($<355{\mu}m,\;IL45$) and 100-mesh ($<150{\mu}m\;IL100$) sieves and separated into $<40{\mu}m\;and\;40-100{\mu}m$ series. IL45 series showed higher amount of large particles ($40-100{\mu}m$) than IL100 series. As the soaking time increased, protein and ash contents decreased, and amylose content, water-binding capacity, swelling power, and solubity of nonwaxy rice flours increased. Swelling power and solibility of nonwaxy rice flours also increased between $65-85^{\circ}C$. Water-binding capacity, swelling power, and solubility of IL100 series were higher than those of IL45 series. 12 hr-soaked nonwaxy rice flour pastes showed higher peak viscosity and breakdown but lower setback and visicosity at $95\;and\;50^{\circ}C$ than 1 hr-soaked ones. X-Ray diffractograms of nonwaxy rice flours were not affected, whereas surface appearance was affected, by soaking time and particle size.

Experiments were disigned to define and optimize efficiency of a system whereby pig follicular oocytes could be matured and fertil ized in vitro. The pig oocytes removed from 1- 2 mm and 3-7 mm follicles were cultured in vitro in the mKRB(-BSA) solution containing estrous sow serum (ESS), FCS or dialyzed pig follicular fluid for 24 to 48 hr at 37$^{\circ}C$. The oocytes matured in vitro were evaluated after epididymal spermatozoa-oocyte incubation for 24 hr for pronucleus formation. 50-60% of the oocytes reached metaphase II during 36 to 48 hr of culture. There was no differernce in oocyte matura¬tion between two groups of follicular size but meiosis was slightly faster in the 3-7 mm follicular oocytes. The oocytes matured in mKRB (-BSA) plus 5% ESS, 15% FCS or dialyzed follicular fraction showed slightly higher maturation rates than the control mKRB. in vitro fertilization, pronucleus formation, tended to be increased when mKRBi-BSA) plus 5% ESS or 15% FCS was used for oocyte maturation and in vivo -capacitated spermatozoa were inseminated, respectively. It is concluded that ESS, FCS and dialyzed pig follicular fluid may be effective factors for in vitro maturation and fertilization of pig follicular oocytes.

The effect of molar substitution (MS, 0.030-0.118) on the dynamic rheological properties of hydroxypropylated rice starch pastes (5%, w/w) was investigated by small-deformation oscillatory measurements during aging. The magnitudes of storage (G#) and loss (G") moduli measured at $4^{\circ}C$ before aging increased with an increase in MS in the range of 0.030-0.118, while those of tan ${\delta}$ (the ratio of G"/G#) decreased. The G# values of hydroxypropylated rice starches, as a function of aging time (10 hr) at $4^{\circ}C$, increased rapidly at the initial stage, and then reached a plateau region at shorter aging times. However, for the native starch, the plateau values were not observed for G# after a long aging time. Increasing the MS resulted in a decrease in plateau values. The rate constant (K) for structure development during aging was described by first-order kinetics. The K values of hydroxypropylated rice starches at 0.086 and 0.118 MS were much lower than the K value at 0.030 MS.

This study was conducted to isolate antilisterial strains of the Bifidobacterium isolates from the infant feces. The bifidobacteria were isolated anaerobically on BL agar and screened for their inhibitory activity on the MRS-cysteine medium against three foodborne pathogens: Listeria monocytogenes, Bacillus cereus, and Staphylococcus aureus. Among the 52 bifidobacterial isolates, 5 strains(A24, Bl, B6, B10, and Bl2) were finally selected based on their stronger antilisterial activity against Listeria monocytogenes than other isolates tested. Morphologically, all the isolates were typically shown Y-and V-shaped under electron microscopic examination. Each isolate was primarily subjected to identification by a polymerase chain reaction(PCR) using a genus-specific primer designed for targeting the 16S rRNA gene sequence, and confirmed the primary identification data using an API-kit(Biomeriuex, France), commercially available product for identification based on biochemical and physiological traits. Of the isolates with antilisterial activity, strain A24 was finally confirmed as the Bifidobacterium longum A24.

In this study, we have examined the monthly combustion characteristics of Quercus variabilis, a representing Quercus Spp. in Korea, using its living leaves over the period of from June to October. As a result, we were able to identify that their moisture content was about 114%~155%. The leaves of Quercus variabilis collected in October showed the lowest moisture content and nonflaming ignition temperature. The leaves of July showed the fastest flaming ignition time of 27s while those from September showed the longest persistence of flame with 105s, and also showed the highest total heat release amount. There was a noticeable difference in each month of the above period regarding total heat release amount and total smoke release amount with a gradual increase from June to October. The maximum smoke density was a bit higher in October leaves but there was no significant monthly difference. In addition, July leaves were shown to reach the maximum value in the shortest time of 795s.

The adsorption of nickel(Ni) from sulfuric acid solution was carried out by ion exchange method. A series of batch tests in synthetic solutions were carried out using Lewatit Monoplus TP 220 resin. The following experimental parameters, such as temperature, shaking rate, reaction time, pH, resin dosage and concentration of nickel ions etc. were investigated to establish the effective optimum conditions of nickel adsorption. The solution pH(2.0~5.0) and shaking rate had little effects on the adsorption of nickel and adsorption time of 72hours was required to reach equilibrium. The experimental results show a good agreement with Feundlich isotherm and pseudo-second order reaction. The adsorption behavior of Ni obtained from synthetic solution was compared with that of waste electroplating solution. Elution of nickel from loaded resin increased with increase in $H_2SO_4$ concentration.
