The purpose of this study was to determine the optimum sodium concentration (0~8%), soaking time (4~20 min) and storage time (0~60 day) for preparation of persimmon jangachi with kochujang sauce using response surface methodology. Physicochemical properties (salinity, pH, Hunter's color value, cutting force, and sensory evaluation) of persimmon kochujang jangachi were analyzed during storage at $20^{\circ}C$ for 60 days. When the proximate composition of persimmon was analyzed, moisture content, crude protein content, crude lipid content, and crude ash content were 85.41%, 0.51%, 0.22%, and 0.20%, respectively. For persimmon kochujang jangachi manufactured with different sodium concentrations, soaking times, and storage times, salinity, pH, Hunter's color value of L, a, and b, color, flavor, taste, texture, and overall preference were represented by a quadratic model. Cutting force was represented by a linear model pattern. In conclusion, the optimal formulation for persimmon kochujang jangachi, as assessed by numerical and graphical optimization methods, was a sodium concentration of 6.91%, soaking time of 11.36 minutes, and storage time of 25.18 days.

The effect of sugar concentration, immersion time and temperature on water loss, solid gain or loss, and sugar molality of potatoes during osmotic concentration was analyzed by a response surface methodology (RSM), and those values were predicted by using a second degree polynomial regression model. Effect of osmotic concentration and blanching on vitamin C retention of air dried potatoes (6% MC: wet basis) was also evaluated. The most significant factor was sugar concentration for water loss, solid gain or loss, sugar molality, rate parameter and retention of vitamin C. Second and third factors were immersion time and temperature respectively. Water loss and solid gain were rapid in the first 10 min and then levelled off. A 44.6% of water loss was observed during osmotic concentration using a sugar solution $(60\;Brix,\;80^{\circ}C$) with 20 min of immersion time. Dried potatoes after osmotic concentration had higher vitamin C content than dried potatoes after blanching. Optimum regions for osmotic concentration process of potatoes were $60-70^{\circ}C$ of immersion temperature, 60 Brix of sugar solution and 16-20 min of immersion time based on above 30% of water loss and 50% of vitamin C retention.

Freezing is one of the main processes to extend the shelf life of foods. Before freezing, a thermal treatment is normally required to control the food quality. In this study, shiitake mushrooms were heated with boiling water and with superheated steam. After the thermal treatments, the samples were continuously frozen by an individual quick freezing (IQF) process, and put them into air-containing or vacuum packaging. Samples were stored at -12, -18 and $-24^{\circ}C$ for 24 weeks, and their physicochemical properties were determined. The lightness of the samples treated with boiling water and superheated steam was decreased by 12 and 15%, respectively, than that of the control. The hardness of all the samples rapidly increased after heat treatment. The contents of organic acids in the superheated steam treated samples were higher than those in the boiling water treated samples. Therefore, superheated steam treatment of samples may be a candidate thermal treatment to preserve frozen shiitake mushrooms.

In this study, the effects of varying the amount of water, soaking time at $25^{\circ}C$ and drying time after soaking at $45^{\circ}C$ on the induction of resveratrol were evaluated to optimize the soaking treatment by response surface methodology (RSM). After response surface regression (RSREG), the second-order polynomial equation was fitted to the experimental data. The analysis of variance showed that the model appeared to be adequate $(R^2=0.9547)$ with no significant lack of fit (p>0.1). From statistical analysis, amount of water and soaking time were found to be significant factors. On the other hand, drying time was not significant. Ridge analysis showed that the optimized parameters were $67.15\%$ for amount of water, 19.58 hr for soaking time, 65.56 hr for drying time. It was confirmed that resveratrol content was increased from $0.1\;{\mu}g/g$ to $4.55\;{\mu}g/g$ under the optimized conditions. In addition, the experimental values at the optimized condition agreed with values predicted by ridge analysis. The analytical method validation parameters such as accuracy, precision, and specificity were calculated to ensure the method's validity.

Effects of different application of nematicides (fosthiazate 5% G, ethoprophos 5% G, and diazinon 34% EC) for the control of Aphelenchoides fragariae in strawberry were evaluated in a greenhouse experiments. Mother strawberry (Fragaria grandiflora) cv. Yeohong were dipped in solution of nematicides (fosthiazate or ethoprophos at 2.5 g a.i./liter in $20^{\circ}C\;or\;46^{\circ}C$) for 10 min. and planted in a greenhouse for dipping treatment. For the compare, mother strawberry were dipped in hot water for 10 min. without chemicals. For soil treatment, fosthiazate or ethoprophos at 3 kg a.i./ha were mixed into soil. For foliar spray, diazinon at 3.4 g a.i./liter was sprayed at foliage until runoff. At 40, 80, and 100 days after planting, runners were harvested from each treatment and the rate of nematode infestation and the number of nematodes per plant were examined. After 100 days of planting, mother strawberry plants dipped in fosthiazate solution (2.5 g a.i./liter, $20^{\circ}C$) for 10 min. produced more number of healthy runners and reduced % of infected runner as much as 90% and also had fewer nematodes per runner. Fosthiazate was more effective than ethoprophos. Foliar application of diazinon was reduced A. fragariae populations only in early season. Hot water treatment and nematicide soil treatment were less effective.

Response surface methodology (RSM) was used for monitoring the changes of Hunter's color and organoleptic colors of roasted doraji tea with variations in threonine concentration of soaking solution and roasting condition. In soaking and roasting processes based on the central composite design with variations in threonine concentration of soaking solution, roasting temperature and roasting time, coefficients of determinations $(R^{2})$ of the models were above 0.87 (p<0.05) in Hunter's color parameters and organoleptic color. Hunter's color L value of roasted doragi tea was maximized in 0.09% threonine concentration of soaking solution, $142.37^{\circ}C$ and 21.94 min in roasting condition. Hunter's color a value of roasted doragi tea was maximized in 1.24% threonine concentration of soaking solution, $154.01^{\circ}C$ and 28.59 min in roasting condition, minimized in 1.67% threonine concentration of soaking solution, $137.61^{\circ}C$ and 24.62 min in roasting condition, Hunter's color b value of roasted doragi tea was maximized in 1.10% threonine concentration of soaking solution, $154.72^{\circ}C$ and 27.12 min in roasting condition. The maximum quality of organoleptic color of roasted doragi tea was soaked in 1.25% threonine concentration, and roasted at $141.81^{\circ}C$ for 34.14 min.

To determine physical and physiological factors for Liriodendron tulipifera L. somatic embryo germination, temporary immersion bioreactor (TIB) system was investigated. It was designed to immerse liquid media with plantlets so that it was able to adjust the immersion time. Immersion of 120 minutes every 4 hours and 60 minutes every 4 hours was found to be effective in germination (91.64%, 85.67%, respectively). However, hyperhydricity of the plantlets was higher in short immersion time (15 minutes every 6 hours) and long immersion time (120 minutes every 4 hours) (51.61%, 34.28%, respectively). Immersion of 60 minutes every 4 hours showed the lowest hyperhydric plantlets, and also it showed the lowest activities of abscisic acid (ABA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and catalase. The overall results implied that immersion time of media affected germination and growth of somatic embryo, and it was able to make use of germination and growth of L. tulipifera somatic embryos.

In the present study, immersion corrosion characteristics of Zn and Al thermal spray coating with sealer for the seawater heat exchanger are experimentally investigated. Total 8 coating types of Zn and Al thermal spray coating with silicone and epoxy sealer were tested with immersion corrosion testing in $80^{\circ}C$ 3.5%w NaCl solution and compared the corrosion characteristics between each coatings. To investigate the corrosion characteristics of the specimens, AC impedance, SEM, and thermal diffusivity were acquired and analyzed. As a result, on the surface of the specimens with silicone and epoxy sealer, blister did not occurred, so the sealers might be effective at increasing the corrosion resistance of the specimens immersed in the NaCl solution.

It was previously reported that cobalt(II) effectively suppresses the postharvest gravitropic response of snapdragon (Antirrhinum majus L.) (Kim et al. (1997) Agric. Chem. and Biotechnol. 40, 567-571). In this study, several factors affecting the suppression of the gravitropic response by cobalt ion were examined. When flower stalks of snapdragon were pretreated with several different cobalt salts, cobalt nitrate turned out to be the most effective not only in reducing the response but also in preserving the flower quality. We also tested the effects of various detergents which were added to cobalt(II) solution, finding that Tween-40 was the best among the tested with respect to the effectiveness as well as the flower quality. Based on these results, we optimized a protocol for the chemical treatment; that is, a suppressor solution containing 10 mM $CO(NO_3)_2$ and 0.05% Tween-40 was directly sprayed on the gravitropically sensitive region of cut flowers of snapdragon. The suppressor treatment gave rise to a significantly improved results when the flower stalks were stored at a lower temperature after the chemical treatment.
