Adoxophyes spp. are the major rests of a pear. The larvae attack both leaves and fruits. (Z)-9-tetradecenyl acetate (Z9-14:Ac), (Z)-11-tetradecenyl acetate (Z11-14:Ac), (E)-11-tetradecenyl acetate (E11-14:Ac) and 10-methyldodecyl acetate (10me-12:Ac) have been reported as the sex pheromone components of the genus Adoxophyes. Our objective was to determine the difference in sex pheromone composition of three different A. spp. populations each from Cheonan, Sangju, and Naju area orchards in Korea. Gas chromatography (GC) analyses of pheromone gland extracts of virgin females confirmed the presence of two compounds (Z9-14:Ac and Z11-14:Ac) in Cheonan and Sangju populations, and four compounds (Z9-14:Ac, Z11-14:Ac, E11-14:Ac and tome-12:Ac) in Naju population. The Z9-14:Ac and Z11-14:Ac were detected in the ratio of 80:20 in the Cheonan population and 3:97 in the Sangju population. Females of Naju population produced sex pheromone blend consisting of Z9-14:Ac, Z11-14:Ac, E11-14:Ac and 10me-12:Ac at a ratio of 31:62:6:1. Field trapping tests in pear orchards with Z9-14:Ac and Z11-14:Ac indicated that maximum captures of the male were obtained with traps baited by 80:20 in Cheonan, 10:90 in Sangju, and 30:70 in Naju. These results suggest that there are remarkable geographical variations in the sex pheromone composition of A. spp. in pear orchards in Korea, and taxonomic classification of these species must be carefully assessed.

In hyperspectral remote sensing, linear spectral mixture model is a common procedure decomposing into the components of a mixed pixel and estimating the fraction of each end-member. Although linear spectral mixture model is frequently used in geology and mineral mapping because this model is simple and easy to apply, this model is not always valid in forest and urban area having rather complex structure. This study aims to analyze possible error for applying linear spectral mixture model. For the study, we measured laboratory spectra of mixture sample, having various materials, fractions, distributions. The accuracy of linear mixture model is low with the mixture sample having similar fraction because the multi-scattering between components is maximum. Additionally, this multi-scattering is related to the types, fraction, and distribution of components. Further analysis is necessary to quantify errors from linear spectral mixture model.

This study was conducted to determine the appropriate mixing ratio of Koji and rice Doenjang. Brown rice Doenjang (BR) was prepared with three different ratios of cooked soybean to brown rice Koji [1.5:1 (BR-1); 2:1 (BR-2); and 3:1 (BR-3)], and polished-rice Doenjang (PR) was prepared with cooked soybean and polished-rice Koji (2:1). The components related to the quality of Doenjang were analyzed during 60-day aging. No significant differences were found in the moisture and salt contents between the brown rice Doenjang and the polished-rice Doenjang. The pH, titratable acidity, and bacteria cells increased at 20-30 days aging time, and decreased thereafter. The reducing-sugar and ethyl alcohol contents, on the other hand, increased at 10-20 days previously. These analytical values of the physicochemical and microbiological characteristics increased with the increase in the percentage of koji in each Doenjang. The amino-nitrogen and free-amino-acid contents showed the highest levels in BR-1: 887.6 and $4047.0{\pm}1.5$ mg%, respectively. The ${\gamma}$-aminobutyric-acid (GABA) contents slightly increased with increasing aging time. In the color of Doenjang, the lightness and yellowness increased along with the aging time, but the redness decreased as the aging time increased. These results showed that BR-1 processed the fermentation the fastest compared with the others. Moreover, the reducing-sugar, ethanol, and free-amino-acid contents as palatable components increased rapidly until 30 days aging time.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the properties of Seolgiddeok by mixed ratio of jujube powder and sugar. The proximate composition, water holding capacity, Hunter's color values, texture, and sensory evaluations were examined in this study. The results are as follows. Among the proximate composition of the Seolgiddeok that was made of different ratio of Jujube powder and sugar, moisture content of the control group was 43.93%. As the amount ratio of Jujube powder increased, moisture content slightly increased, and content of crude protein and crude ash was higher. The water holding capacity of Seolgiddeok by mixed ratio of jujube powder and sugar was lower as the amount ratio of Jujube powder increased. The L value, which is Hunter's color values of Seolgiddeok by mixed ratio of jujube powder and sugar, was the highest in the control group. The a and b value was the lowest in the control group and became high as the amount ratio of the jujube powder increased. As amount ratio of jujube powder increased, the hardness, the springiness, the cohesiveness, the gumminess, and the chewiness, of Seolgiddeok became high, but adhesiveness became low. In a sensory evaluation of Seolgiddeok by mixed ratio of jujube powder and sugar, the preference of texture, mouth-feel, and appearance was the highest in the control group. The preference of color, flavor and overall preference were the highest in Seolgiddeok by mixed ratio of jujube powder of 75.0g and sugar 57.6g.

In this study, the physical properties of the medium and changes in the wood chemical composition of the sawdust were investigated during the cultivation of oak mushroom sawdust bags, and the following results were obtained. After inoculation, the weight of the medium decreased during the incubation period. It is determined that this is not due to evaporation of moisture containing the medium or decomposition of sawdust, but to decomposition of rice bran, a low molecular substance added to the medium. It was confirmed that the moisture content of the medium was steadily increased during incubation, and it was estimated that the organic substrates such as rice brane in the medium was decomposed by mycelium, and water, one of the decomposition products of organic substrates, caused an increase in the moisture content of the medium. Along with the increase in the harvest of oak mushrooms, the proportion of organic substances such as holocellulose and lignin, the main components of the wood cell wall of sawdust, steadily decreased. In particular, the degradation characteristics of the wood cell wall component of shiitake, which is a white rot fungi, were confirmed by higher lignin reduction rate than that of holocellulose. On the other hand, ash, which is an inorganic material, increased with an increase in the number of mushroom harvests. The increase in the amount of ash in the medium may have been due to the decrease in the organic matter content such as holocellulose and lignin.

Lipid soluble ginseng extract was administered by oral route in doses of 600 mg/patient daily in cancer patients over 2 months and 6 months. The administration of ginseng extract in cancer patients maintained the ratio of CD4/CD8 and number of the natural killer cell in the normal range during the administration period. Also its administration showed a positive effect on tumor values in 87.5% of patients in 2 month-group and in 50% of patients in 6 month-group, as determined by various cancer markers. Liver and kidney functions maintained normal condition during administration period of 6 months. Although there was no statistical significance, these data suggest that lipid soluble ginseng extract may be useful as an adjuvant therapeutic agent and nutritional supplement for the improvement of immune function and health in cancer patients. This study would provide the basis for the research in which the antitumor and immunopotential activity of lipid soluble ginseng extract for cancer patients are evaluated in formal clinical trial with statistically significant patient number.

An experiment was conducted to determine the effects of feeding extruded-floating (EP), slow-sinking (SP), fast-sinking (FP) or moist (MP) prepared with two different levels of fish meal, respectively, on the growth, feed efficiency and body composition in Korean rockfish (Sebastes schlegeli). Triplicate groups of the 50 fish averaging 75g were fed each of the following diets : high fish meal (72% in diet)-EP, low fish meal SP, low fish meal-FP and low fish meal-MP for 15 weeks. Dietary fish meal levels or pellet types did not influence weight gain, feed efficiency and bo요 composition of the fish (P>0.05). Findings showed that each of EP, SP or FP can by used as a practical type of diet for Koran rockfish.

In the ancient iron-making process, a slag former was often added so that iron and other minerals in the ore could be smoothly separated. However, there are insufficient data for judging whether a slag former was added. Thus, in this study, we conducted a smelting experiment to understand the material characteristics of a steel structure that differed depending on the addition of a slag former. It was found that the steel structure produced in the first experiment had a total Fe content of 39.45-52.94 wt%, which decreased to 34.89-38.92 wt% in the second and third experiments. CaO compounds such as calcite, gehlenite, and hercynite appeared, in addition to iron oxides, after the addition of a slag former. As a result of an assessment of whether a slag former was added by comparing the ratio between the components, it was found that the ratio of $CaO/SiO_2$ was 0.42. From a comparative analysis of $Al_2O_3/SiO_2$ and $CaO/SiO_2$, it was judged that the ratio of $Al_2O_3$ and $SiO_2$ can be utilized as an index to judge similar systems of smelting process (ore, furnace wall, and fuel).

The principal objective of this study was to evaluate the immune activity of Mosidae and the physiochemical characteristics of brown rice Dasik prepared with Mosidae (Adenophora remotiflora) powder. We assessed the effects of Mosidae ethanol extract (MEE) on the production of IL-6T, IL-12 and TNF-$\alpha$ by peritoneal exudate macrophages (PEMs) using ELISA. We also determined general compositions, and conducted Hunter's color values, sensory evaluation, and the mechanical characteristics of Mosidae Dasik stored at room temperature ($20^{\circ}C$). With MEE treatment, ILI-6 (75% of LPS: positive control), IL-12 (35.7% of LPS) and TNF-$\alpha$ (27.32% of LPS) were proliferated at a dose of $1000{\mu}g/mL$. In the general compositions of the samples, fat contents of Mosidae Dasik significantly decreased (p<0.05). The more Mosidae powder was added to the samples, the more was the luminance, and Hunter's a and b were significantly decreased (p<0.05). As more Mosidae powder was added to the samples, springiness score was significantly decreased, but the score of hardness, gumminess and chewiness were increased (p<0.05). The results of sensory evaluation showed that there were significant differences in the color, taste and overall quality of the samples (p<0.05), but there was no significant difference in texture. We note that, among the samples evaluated herein, Mosidae stimulates some kinds of cytokines from machrophage and 1% Mosidae Dasik (MPD1) for the best commercial value.

This excperiment was conducted to investigate relation on seed dormancy and vi-viparous germination with sucrose content, fatty acid composition and abscisic acid content of rice seeds. The following results were obtained by this experiment. Sucrose content of brown rice harvested at 20 and 40 days after heading was higher in Japonica and Sare type varieties than in Tongil and Indica type rices. Positive relationship was found be-tween sucrose content of brown rice and viviparous germination rate of rice varieties tested.J aponica and Sare type rice varieties showed low proportion of oleic acid and higher proportion of linoleic acid in brown rice harvested at 20 and 40 days after heading than Tongil and Indica rices tested. Viviparous germination was negatively correlated with the proportion oleic acid and positively with that of linoleic acid. Abscisic acid content in hull of rice seeds stored for 30 days at 25/15$^{\circ}C$ fluctuation temperature condition was decreased more rapidly than 4$^{\circ}C$, and Japonica varieties tested showed lower con-tent of abscisic acid in rice hull than Tongil and Indica varieties used.
