To investigate the effects of Pichia anomala SKM-T and Galactomyces geotrichum SJM-59 on Baechu kimchi fermentation, lyophilized yeasts were added to Baechu kimchi and co-cultured at room temperature ($20{\pm}2^{\circ}C$) for 7 days. Desirable pH and acidity levels appeared by 3 days of fermentation in both the control culture and that with added G. geotrichum SJM-59. Furthermore, the culture with G. geotrichum SJM-59 sustained a desirable pH and acidity level until 5 days of co-culture. The pH of the culture with P. anomala SKM-T decreased slowly and was significantly higher than that of control throughout the experimental period. As fermentation time increased, the acidity of the culture with P. anomala SKM-T increased gradually. However, this culture maintained a desirable acidity level throughout the experiment. The number of lactic acid bacteria in the culture with P. anomala SKM-T was higher than in the culture with G. geotrichum SJM-59, or the control culture, throughout the experiment. The highest LA/TM ratio appeared after 3 nays of fermentation in the control culture, and on the 5 day of the yeasts added co-cultures. On sensory evaluation, no differences were detected between control and the culture with G. geotrichum SJM-59 arter 3 days of fermentation. The co-cultures with yeasts received high marks in umami taste. The co-culture with P. anomala SKM-T showed better texture properties than did the control culture. It was considered that fermentation times were delayed by addition of G. geotrichum SJM-59 or P. anomala SKM-T to Baechu kimchi fermentation.

An improved detection of radiation-induced paramagnetic faults was developed to identify the irradiation status of basil and clove. The effectiveness of different sample pretreatments, including freeze-drying (FD), oven-drying (OD), alcoholic-extraction (AE), and water-washing and alcoholic-extraction (WAE), were examined. All non-irradiated samples showed a single central signal ($g_0$=2.006), whereas radicals representing two additional side peaks ($g_1$=2.023 and $g_2$=1.986) with a mutual distance of 6 mT were detected in the irradiated samples. AE and WAE produced the best results for irradiated clove in terms of intensities of radiation-specific ESR signals and their ratios to the central signal. However, FD provided the highest intensities of radiation-specific ESR signals for basil, whereas their ratios to the major signal were better in the cases of AE and WAE. Signal noise, particularly due to $Mn^{2+}$ signals, was observed, whereas it decreased in AE and WAE pretreatments. Based on our results, AE and WAE can improve the detection conditions for radiation-specific ESR signals in irradiated samples.

Recently, since atopic dermatitis is sensitive to skin irritation, it has been suggested that the development of a patch that can effectively exhibit adhesion and absorption to a specific local area while minimizing skin irritation, and capable of appropriate drug release should be given priority. In this study, we tried to develop a hydrogel patch that minimizes skin irritation, adheres effectively to a specific area, and promotes absorption. The atopic patch was formulated into a super-absorbent hydrogel sheet using a freeze drying method. Cell viability assay was carried out using keratinocytes (HaCaT cell) and fibroblasts (L929 cells). In order to investigate the physical properties, FT-IR, FE-SEM, porosity analysis and swelling behavior were investigated. As a result, the newly prepared HA-Dex hydrogel patch was verified by biocompatibility and physical evaluation. In addition, the manufactured hydrogel patch has sufficient moisture absorption capacity and can relieve itching of atopic skin, and is expected to be applied to various drug delivery products for the treatment of atopic dermatitis in the future.

This study was performed to evaluate physico-chemical properties and antioxidant activity of pork patties with tomato powder as affected by water solubility. Fresh tomatoes were homogenized and dried in a $60^{\circ}C$ oven. Dried tomato powder was added to double deionized-water and stirred. The soluble and insoluble portions were collected by freeze-drying. Thus, total dried powder (T1) and water soluble (T2) and insoluble powders (T3) were prepared for the experiment. Pork patties containing 0.5% water insoluble powder had the highest redness and yellowness values among the treatments (p<0.05). Thiobarbituric acid reactive substance values of pork patties containing 0.5% dried tomato powder were lower than those of the control (p<0.05) and not different from those of the reference (0.01% BHT). Total bacteria and Enterobacteriaceae (VRB) tended to increase with increasing storage time from 0 to 14 d; however, these values were not statistically different among treatments. These results suggest that lipid oxidation may be suppressed by adding tomato powder to pork patties; thus, tomato powder could be used as a natural antioxidant in meat products as a partial replacement for synthetic antioxidants.

In this study, spherical monodispersed cerium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG : $Ce^{3+}$) phosphor particles were synthesized via homogeneous precipitation method using the mixed solution of yttrium nitrate, cerium nitrate, aluminum nitrate, ammonium aluminum sulfate, and urea as a precipitant. During the process of precursors of monodispersed YAG : $Ce^{3+}$, aluminum ions which form spherical aluminum compounds precipitated first and yttrium compounds precipitated onto the surface of the existing spherical aluminum compounds. Drying process using lyophilization could obtain monodispered spherical YAG : $Ce^{3+}$ particles compare to using oven. The thermal calcination process of YAG : $Ce^{3+}$ precursors under the temperature of $1200^{\circ}C$ for 6 h was enough to obtain 400~500 nm sized YAG particles with pure YAG phase.

To develop health functional gluten-free rice madeleines added with pine needle, rice flours were prepared by adding different contents (0.6, 1.2, and 1.8% on rice flour basis) of freeze-dried pine needle powder (PP) and extract (PE, by pressing pine needles). The preparation, textural and sensory properties, and antioxidative activities of rice madeleines were investigated. The antioxidative activities of rice madeleines added with PP and PE were higher than those of the control and were significantly different from each other. The specific volume of rice madeleines added with PE was higher than that added with PP. Lightness and yellowness decreased with increasing PP or PE content, whereas redness showed the reverse trend. Textural properties were also significantly different according to pine needle type and content. Hardness values of rice madeleines added with 1.2 and 1.8% PP or 1.2% PE were reduced compared to that of control. Hardness values increased while other textural properties decreased during storage. In the sensory test, color, flavor, and taste scores increased with increasing PP or PE contents, whereas flavor and overall quality scores were highest in rice madeleine added with 1.2% PP. Based on these results, pine needle powder addition improved antioxidative activities and overall quality.

The exo-polysaccharide producing microorganism, Aureobasidium pullulans IMS-822, was isolated and identified from soil. The viscosity-average molecular weight of exo-polysaccharide was calculated as $8.9{\times}10^5$ by Mark-Houwink equation. The sugar component of exo-polysaccharide was determined as glucose by HPLC analysis. The IR spectra indicated that the exo-polysaccharide has an absorption peak at 890 $cm^{-1}$ for the ${\beta}-configuration$ of D-glucan. The $^{13}C$ NMR signal at ${\delta}$ 86.62 ppm arose from the substituted C-3 of glucose. The signal at ${\delta}$ 72.11 ppm was assigned to C-6 of branched ${\beta}-(1{\to}3)-D-glucosyl$ residues. Viscosity and Congo red reaction indicated that {\beta}-(1{\to}3)(1{\to}6)-glucan$ produced by A. pullulans IMS-822 has a highly ordered hydrogen-bond dependent conformation in aqueous solution, which collapses in strong alkaline solution.

In order to develop novel food products or additives using transglutaminase (TGase), some physicochemical and morphological understandings are needed. Raw skim milk was adjusted to pH 5.5, 7.0, and 8.5, and each was treated with microbial TGase for 0, 1, 2, 4, and 8 hours, for the protein structure observation using scanning electron microscope (SEM), The particles of untreated raw skim milk were small and evenly associated. After adjustment of pH to 5.5 and treatment of TGase for 1-hour, the protein particles aggregated widely in a bigger form than that of control. Under the same condition for 2 hours, the particles associated and clustered. The particles gathered widely and became a number of small spherical forms after 4 hours. After 8 hours, they made larger forms than the result of 1-hour treatment, and the aggregation broadened. Under the pH 7.0 and 8.5 conditions with TGase-treatment, the protein Particles fractionated and associated into the bigger masses at 1 hour point, but each piece slowly became smaller and more fractionated until treated time reached 4 hours. After 8 hours, the fragmented protein particles aggregated into larger forms as those on the pH 5.5 condition. In general, the electron microscopical forms of the samples adjusted to pH 5.5 showed smaller than those of pH 7.0 or pH 8.5, It is suggested that the protein particles and textural behavior were influenced by pH, TGase, and reaction time.

Response surface methodology was used for monitoring changes in physicochemical properties with heating condition of ginseng which was sliced and freeze-dried. As heating temperature and time increased, soluble solid content decreased and browning color increased. Also, acidic polysaccharide and total phenolics increased with the increase in heating temperature and time. Heating condition for maximum soluble solid content was 146.05$^{\circ}C$ in heating temperature and 18.16 min in heating time. Maximum value of crude saponin content was 64.40 mg/g in 160.00$^{\circ}C$ and 20.00 min. Crude saponin content was influenced by heating time but the other properties were influenced by heating temperature.

This study focus on the surface deterioration diagnosis based on the material characteristics of Taean Dongmunri Maaesamjonbulipsang(rock-carved standing triad Buddha Statue) and the weathering environment analysis. Rock materials of the triad Buddha is coarse-grained biotite granite which is composed mainly of quartz, K-feldspar, plagioclase, biotite and muscovite. The triad Buddha was serious surface irregularity(13.5%), exfoliation(12.3%) and discoloration(46.6%), and the physical characteristics using ultrasonic velocity appeared fourth grade (0.59, highly weathered). Korean style wooden shelter of the triad Buddha(closed type) maintained high humidity environment (daily mean; 86.6%) than exterior environment, and appeared the possibility of deterioration by freezing-thawing because the temperature showed below zero temperatures in winter. The shelter was changed from closed-type to open-type to relieve the moisture problem recently. But the moisture problem is yet to be solved because surface water flowing along northern wayside is flowed into triad Buddha. Therefore, environmental control will need to stop inflow of water into triad Buddha.
