Liquefied natural gas(LNG) is natural gas that has been converted temporarily to liquid form for ease of storage and transport it. Natural gas is the worlds cleanest burning fossil fuel and it has emerged as the environmentally preferred fuel of choice. In Korea, the demand of this has been increased since the first import from the Indonesia in 1986. LNG takes up about 1/600th the volume of natural gas in the gaseous state by cooling it to approximately $-162^{\circ}C(-260^{\circ}F)$. The reduction in volume therefore makes it much more cost efficient to transport and store it. Modern LNG storage tanks are typically the full containment type, which is a double-wall construction with reinforced concrete outer wall and a high-nickel steel inner tank, with extremely efficient insulation between the walls. The insulation will be installed to LNG outer tank for the isolation of cryogenic temperature. The insulation will be installed in the base slab, wall and at the roof. According to the insulation's arrangement, the different aspects of temperature transmission is shown around the outer tank. As the result of the thermal & stress analysis, by the installing cellular glass underneath the perlite concrete, the temperature difference is greatly reduced between the ambient temperature and inside of concrete wall, also reducing section force according to temperature load.

The effect of Ganoderma lucidum extract on Saccharomyces cerevisiae growth and physiology has been investigated. S. cerevisiae was inoculated in Henneberg solution medium into which 0, 0.1, 0.5 or 1.0% extracts of G. lucidum were added respectively and it was fermented at $30^{\circ}C$ for 5 days, respectively. Cell number of S. cerevisiae has increased according to the concentration as in order of distilled water(Dw) extracts 1.0% added>ethanol(Et) extracts 1.0% added>Dw extracts 0.5% added>Et extracts 0.5% added>Dw extracts 0.1% added>Et extracts 0.1% added group compared to control group(extracts 0% added) and in Dw extracts 1.0% added group the number has increased than those of control group after the fermentation of 72 hours. Weights of dried yeast cell have increased in each treated group than those of control group and it increased about 1.7 times in each Dw 1.0%, Et 1.0% group than those of control group after fermentation of 120 hours. The more the extracts of G. lucidum was added, the more alcohol levels increased during fermentation. The rate of carbon dioxide production per G. lucidum extract medium was faster than those of control group as G. lucidum extract was increasingly added.

Nine kinds of hydroxypropyl celluloses (HPCs) with degree of substitution (DS) and molar substitution (MS) ranging from 2.10 to 2.71 and 2.3 to 6.7, respectively and seven kinds of fully butanoated HPCs (BPCs) based on the HPCs with $2.3\;{\le}\;MS\;{\le}\;6.7$ were synthesized, and the molecular characteristics of HPCs and the thermotropic liquid crystalline properties of the derivatives were investigated. MS was nearly equal to DS for small value of DS, but it became exceedly larger than DS for $DS{\gtrsim}1$, showing that in the later stages of reaction, propylene oxide preferentially adds to the side chains rather than the main chain. All the derivatives formed enantiotropic cholesteric phases with right-handed helical structures. The glass and clearing transition temperatures of both HPCs and BPCs were decreased with increasing MS. The optical pitches (${\lambda}_m'S$) of BPCs, as well as HPCs themselves, increased with increasing temperature. However, the ${\lambda}_m'S$ of both HPCs and BPCs at the same temperature increased with increasing MS. Moreover, the temperature dependence of ${\lambda}_m$ of HPCs was weaker than that of BPCs, suggesting that the helical twisting power of the cellulose chain highly depends on the length and chemical structure of the side chain introduced in cellulose chain.

Microcapsules were prepared by coacervation method using acetone/liquid paraffin system to control the ripening of kimchi. Eudragit E100, which was soluble at below pH 5.0 in aqueous solution, was used to make microcapsules to be sensitive to acidity of kimchi. The microcapsules with Eudragit E100 containing grapefruit seed extract (GFSE) showed the highest yield of 92.13%, the size of microcapsules was decreasing as increasing the amount of aluminium stearate, a dispersing agent. Morphology of the microcapsules determined by scanning electron microscopy showed spherical forms. GFSE, encapsulated antimicrobial agents, was quickly released at acidic buffer (pH 4,5,6) within 1 storage day. However, 70% of encapsulated GFSE in Eudragit E100 microcapsules was continuously released at pH 7 till 3 days, and it was sustained till 9 days. Characteristics of kimchi containing microcapsules of GFSE were analysed with ripening period. Decease of pH in kimchi was retarded with the added GFSE microcapsules till 2 days of fermentation, but GFSE did not affect pH in kimchi after 3 days. Total numbers of microorganisms and lactic acid microorganisms in kimchi were decreased with increasing the amount of the added GFSE microcapsules, however, the effect of controlled released GFSE from pH sensitive Eudragit E100 microcapsules was hard to detect. These results suggest the possibility of pH sensitive microcapsules for high qualify of kimchi.

We have demonstrated expression of bacterial genes transferred into cells of Populus nigra ${\times}$ P. maximowiczii by A. tumefaciens strain 6044 (pGA 472). We determined the optimum concentration of kanamycin sulfate for effective selection of punctured leaf transformed using Agrobacterium binary vector pGA 472 containing a neomycine phosphotransferase gene (NPT-II) which confers kanamycin resistance. The combination of cefotaxime (200mg/l) and carbenicillin (300mg/l) showed good performance of discarding Agrobacterium from inoculated punctured leaf. A relatively low concentration (10mg/l) of kanamycin sulfate inhibited callus and shoots induction from punctured leaf. Number of shoots regenerated from co-cultured punctured leaf was 3.0 on MS basal medium supplemented with 10 mg/l kanamycin sulfate, while that of not co-cultured punctured leaf was none. The regeneration rate was 10% from the punctured leaf co-cultured on MS medium with 10 mg/l kanamycin. Regenerated shoots are developing from micropropagation for Southern blot analysis and inheritance of the kanamycin resistance trait (NPT-II).

All-solid state lithium rechargeable thin film batteries were fabricated with the configuration of$Cu_{0.5}V_2O_5/Lipon/Li$ using sequential thin film techniques. Copper vanadium oxide thin films and Lipon thin films were prepared by DC reactive dual source magnetron sputtering and RF magnetron sputtering, respectively. According to XRD analysis, we found out that copper vanadium oxide thin films were amorphous. The electrochemical behaviour of them was examined in half cell system using EC : DMC(1:1 in IM $LiPF_5$) liquid electrolyte. The ionic conductivity of Lipon thin film was $1.02\times10^{-6}S/cm$ at $25^{\circ}C$ and $Cu_{0.5}V_2O_5/Lipon/Li$ cell showed that the discharge capacity was about $50{\mu}Ah/cm^2{\mu}m$ beyond 500cyc1es.

The gel polymer electrolyte(GPE) were prepared by in-situ thermal cross-linking reaction of homogeneous precursor solution of perfluorinated phosphate-based cross-linker and liquid electrolyte. Ionic conductivities and electrochemical properties of the prepared gel polymer electrolyte with the various contents of liquid electrolytes and perfluorinated organophosphate-based cross-linker were examined. The stable gel polymer electrolyte was obtained up to 97 wt% of the liquid electrolyte. Ionic conductivity and electrochemical properties of the gel polymer electrolytes with the various chain length of perfluorinated ethylene oxide and different content of liquid electrolytes were examined. The maximum ionic conductivity of liquid electrolyte was measured to be $1.02\;{\times}\;10^{-2}\;S/cm$ at $30^{\circ}C$ using the cross-linker($PFT_nGA$). The electrochemical stability of the gel polymer electrolyte was extended to 4.5 V. The electrochemical performances of test cells composed of the resulting gel polymer electrolyte were also studied to evaluate the applicability on the lithium polymer batteries. The test cell carried a discharge capacity of 136.11mAh/g at 0.1C. The discharge capacity was measured to be 91% at 2C rate. The discharge capacity decreased with increase of discharge rate which was due to the polarization. After 500th charge/discharge cycles, the capacity of battery decreased to be 70% of the initial capacity.

Purpose: Candida albicans can cause mucosal disease in many vulnerable patients. Also they are associated with denture-related stomatitis. Electrolyzed water is generated by electric current passed via water using various metal electrodes and has antimicrobial activity. The aim of this study was to investigate antifungal activity of electrolyzed water on C. albicans biofilm. Materials and Methods: C. albicans was cultured by sabouraud dextrose broth and F-12 nutrient medium in aerobic and 5% $CO_2$ condition to form blastoconidia (yeast) and hyphae type, respectively. For formation of C. albicans biofilm, C. albicans was cultivated on rough surface 6-well plate by using F-12 nutrient medium in $CO_2$ incubator for 48 hr. After electrolyzing tap water using various metal electrodes, the blastoconidia and hyphal type of C. albicans were treated with electrolyzed water. C. albicans formed blastoconidia and hyphae type when they were cultured by sabouraud dextrose broth and F-12 nutrient medium, respectively. Results: The electrolyzed water using palladium electrode (EWP) exhibited antifungal effect on blastoconidia of C. albicans. Also, the EWP significantly has antifungal activity against C. albicans biofilm and hyphae. In the electrolyzed water using various metal electrodes, only the EWP have antifungal activity. Conclusion: The EWP may use a gargle solution and a soaking solution for prevention of oral candidiasis and denture-related stomatitis due to antifungal activity.

Protoplast-source meterial and enzyme strength had a significant influence on protoplast yield from hybrid poplar, Populus alba ${\times}$ P. grandidentata. The yield of protoplasts from in vitro culture of 1 month-old plantlets was more than that from greenhouse grown 4 month-old stock plant. In vitro cultured plantlets regulary produced more viable protoplasts with E-I enzyme solution (0.5% cellulase and 0.1% macerase) than those with E-II enzyme solution (1.0% cellulase and 0.2% macerase) after overnight incubation. The mean yield of protoplasts from in vitro cultured plantlets was $4{\times}10^6$ with E-I enzyme solution. Cell division was observed in these protoplast cultures after 7-10 days. Protoplast-derived hybrid poplar cells survived over 3 weeks in culture and some continuous cell divisions were evident. Other aspects associated with protoplasts from in vitro cultured plantlet are also discussed.
