This experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of red ginseng extract on the growth of Lactobacillus sp. (L acidophilus, L casei, L salivarius), Escherichia coli and Listeria monocytogenes in pH controled medium by $\beta-Glycerol\;PO_4$ buffer. The growth of Lactobacillus sp. was show a similar pattern in control and MRS broth with red ginseng extract $1.0\%$ but was remarkably show inhibiting in MRS broth with over $2.0\%$ red ginseng extracts. The growth of E coli was inhibited in Trypticase soy broth with $1.0\%$ red ginseng extracts. Also the growth of L monocytogenes was inhibited in Trypticase soy broth with $5.0\%$ red ginseng extract The growth of L acidophilus KCTC3150, L casei KCTC3189, L salivarius ssp. salivarius CNU27, and E coli KCTC1039, L monocytogenes KCTC3443 were remarkably inhibited in pH non-control medium and pH control medium with $10\%$ red ginseng extract These results was suggested to effect of inhibition of microorganisms growth not pH decrease by organic acid but another components in red ginseng extract.

We investigated the effects of dietary pearlzyme (mudflat-bacteria origin protease) on growth performance and development of digestive organs in broilers. Two hundred forty, 4 day-old female Ross broiler chicks were divided into 2 groups (control vs. pearlzyme) which were randomly housed in 8 pens with 15 chicks/pen. They were fed one of two diets containing pearlzyme at 0 or 0.1% for 4 weeks. Dietary pearlzyme resulted in significant increase in body weight during the first week of the experiment (p<0.05). With age, weight gain and feed efficiency continued to decrease reaching significant level during the last week. Mortality was 3.3% in control but not in pearlzyme during the entire period of the experiment. Dietary pearlzyme resulted in increased weight (p<0.05) in the ceca and rectum, and increased length in the ceca (p<0.05). However, there were tendencies to increase the weight of the gizzard (p<0.071) but to decrease the length of the small intestine (p<0.068). The results of the current study show that dietary pearlzyme affects weight gain and the development of digestive organs.

The dispersion/flocculation behavior of bentonite is a major concern in performance of drilling fluid. We studied the dispersion/flocculation characteristics of three commercial bentonites [two CMC (carboxymethyl cellulose) treated and one untreated] in waters of different pHs and salt concentrations. We also examined changes in the viscosity of bentonite suspensions in such waters as a major rheological property of drilling fluid. The dispersion/flocculation behaviors of bentonites were measured by two methods: colorimetric and light scattering method. Light scattering method allows estimating the floc diameter and flocculation rate. The dispersion and flocculation behaviors were diverse with the different bentonites and water qualities. In distilled water, all the bentonites were well dispersed up to first 10 minutes. After that, the CMC-bearing bentonites were flocculated. In salt waters, all the samples were flocculated and the flocculation rate is varied with salt concentration and polymer content. The volume of settled flocs decreased with increasing salt concentration. The flocculation rate and floc diameter increased with decreasing pH of solutions, whereas the volume of settled flocs increased with increasing pH of solutions. The bentonites of fast flocculation behavior had low viscosity. The results of the present study will be helpful in applying bentonites to drilling fluids in diverse environments.

This study was conducted to determine physiobiochemical basis of heterosis using rice hybrids such as Shanyou 63 (Zhenshan 97As Minhui 63) and Teyou 63 (Longtepu A Minhui 63) as compared with inbred rice like Milyang 23. Seed protein patterns of rice hybrid showed complementary genetic characteristics inherited from their parents. Hybrid rice had larger embryo and higher $\alpha$-amylase activity than those of inbred rice. The larger embryo of hybrid was significantly correlated with tillering ability and high number of low node tillers jplant increased by 60~70% in Shanyou 63, leading to higher productive tillers/plant which directly influenced on grain yield of hybrid rice. These characters were further supported by high chlorophyll content in hybrids. Exogenous application of GA$_3$ (0.02 ppm) on inbred rice like Milyang 23, increased significantly $\alpha$-amylase activity, but no effect of GA$_3$ on hybrid rice was observed, indicating that sufficient amount of GA$_3$ is endogenously present in hybrid rice, showing 1 to 3.5 fold higher activity of $\alpha$-amylase in hybrid rice, which trigger heterosis from the germinating stage. Further, activity of cytochrome c oxidase was 2.66 to 5.52 fold higher in hybrid rice than that of inbred rice, indicating that rice hybrids have very active metabolism reflecting vigorous growth starting from the germinating stage, in turn leading to higher tillering ability.

Blast furnace slag doesn't have self-hydraulicity and it needs stimulants such as alkali to hydrate. Therefore using recycled aggregates erupted calcium hydroxides and blast furnace slag acquiring alkali stimulate could make a complementarily use of a recycling architectural material possible. In this study, we have discussed about characters of blast furnace slag and recycled aggregate firstly, and make recycled aggregate mortar and concrete using blast furnace slag for the experiment. The experiment is about mortar and concrete using recycled aggregate as a substitutional material of blast furnace slag. In this experiment, I replace blast furnace slag and aggregate with recycled aggregate. Conclusions through the test results analysis are as follows. And then, we added field experiment using concrete with composited materials.

Antagonistic microorganisms from rhizosphere soil were isolated, identified, and applied successfully as the biocontrol agents of damping-off caused by Rhizoctonia spp. Rhizosphere antagonists isolated from rhizosphere soil were identified as Trichoderma viride, T. harzianum, T. hamatum, T. polysporum, Gliocladium sp., Pseudomonas fluorescence, P. stutzeri, P. cepacia, Enterobacter sp., Serratia sp. and Erwinia herbicola. Of these, the most promising ones in vitro were T. virdie, T. harzianum, Gliocladium sp., Serratia sp., P. stutzeri, and P. cepacia. These above six antagonists were efficient in reducing disease incidence to $40{\sim}70%$ when the reselected rhizosphere antagonists preparations were applied to the soil at $10^6$ propagules per gram. Among six antagonists, T. viride was the most promising biocontrol agents against R. solani isolates in soil. The suppressive effect was more evident in steam-sterilized soil than in non-sterilized field soil.

Currently, in South Korea, because of reducing the construction period or treating wasted water, there are some cases of missing wet curing for concrete structure even though for high strength concrete. This air curing conditions is considered to cause increased possibility of compressive strength decrease, and increasing drying or autogenous shrinkages. As a solution of shrinkage of concrete, The authors' research team conducted the research on improving durability of concrete with decreasing autogenous shrinkage by adding the oil or fat to induce the saponification. Therefore, in this research, the influence of curing method on compressive strength, shrinkage on evaporation rate of high strength mortar including high volume supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) was evaluated depending on various curing methods such as air curing, drying after painting emulsified refined cooking oil (ERCO), and drying after 7 and 28 days' wet curing. The experimental result showed the air curing method caused approximately 50% of decreased compressive strength and 1.9 times of increased shrinkage rather than the 28-day-wet curing method, thus it was known that the wet curing significantly influences on performance of high strength mortar using high volume SCMs. However, the ERCO painting curing caused decreased performance of concrete rather than drying after 7 days curing while it caused improved performance of concrete than entire period air curing.

For safe and easy disposal of prochloraz wastewaters after used as rice seed disinfectant in Korean farms, this experiment was carried out. By addition of several agricultural materials commonly utilizing in farmers, removal effect of prochloraz from waste solution was also investigated. When rice seeds after soaking in diluted prochloraz solution were rinsed with water several times, prochloraz was removed $9.2\sim10.6%$ at the first rinse and less than 3 % at the fourth rinse. A half life of prochloraz was $4\sim5$ days in aqueous system. Hydrolysis of prochloraz was more rapidly in alkali solution than neutral and acidic one at $25^{\circ}C$ and $35^{\circ}C$. By the irradiation under $5530J/cm^2$ using xenone lamp, prochloraz was photo-degraded to 87.7% in aqueous system. The removal efficiency of prochloraz by addition of several agricultural materials were as follows: 93.6% by lime, 90.7% by composed pig manure, 89.4% by activated charcoal, 78.0% by straw ash, 70.3% by sandy loam soil, 47.0% by zeolite and 24.1 % by rice straw. When prochloraz solution was sprayed on the field soil, it was dissipated upto 90% within 35 days.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of a by-product feed-based silage (BF silage) feeding on behavior patterns of growing Hanwoo steers. A total of 10 Hanwoo steers (11 months old, 302kg of body weight) were assigned to 2 dietary treatments: the control (concentrate mix + free access to rice straw), and the treatment (concentrate mix + free access to BF silage). The behavior patterns were observed for 48 hours. The intakes of dry matter (DM) and neutral detergent fiber (NDF) of the treatment group were higher than those of the control group. Eating time, ruminating time and resting time were not different between the control and treatment. But, the intake time per kg DM was higher for the control than treatment. The number of bolus, total chewing frequency, number of ruminating per bolus and number of bolus per minute were not different between the control and treatment. But the chewing frequency per bolus was higher in the treatment than control (p<0.05), and feed value index was lower in treatment than control (p<0.05). Frequencies of drinking and defecating were not different between the two groups, but the frequency of urinating was higher for the treatment (p<0.05) than control. Eating rate, ruminating efficiency and chewing efficiency were much higher in the treatment group than control (p<0.05). These results indicate that the replacement of conventional rice straws with the BF silage (physically effective NDF, about 25%) did not affect the ruminating behaviors of Hanwoo steers significantly.

Low-fat sausages (LFS) containing various levels (0, 0.3, and 0.6%) of activated lactoferrin (ALF) which was prepared by dialysis to chelate irons of native lactoferrin, were manufactured and measured the physicochemical and textural properties, and shelf-life effect during refrigerated storage ($8^{\circ}C$). LFSs contained 72-16% moisture, 1-2% fat, 12-14% protein and a pH range of 6.04-6.08. No differences in physico-chemical and textural properties were observed with the increased ALF (p>0.05). Microbial growth of Listeria monocytogenes (LM), which inoculated at the levels of $10^4$ CFU/g, was increased with increased storage time. ALF at the amount of 0.6% slightly inhibited the microbial growth on the LFS (p<0.05), as compared to those of LFSs without ALF, however it had lower antimicrobial activity than those of 3.3% sodium lactate. These results indicated that the addition of ALF at the level of 0.6% affected the antibacterial activity of LFSs, resulting in the suppression of microbial growth in LFSs without quality defects.
