Cheese is a nutritious food with various balanced nutrients, such as proteins, peptides, amino acids, fats, fatty acids, vitamins and minerals. Domestic cheese varieties and quality need to be improved to prevent imported cheese. To develop those cheeses, search for previous works and research for new products are needed. In cheese ripening of hard cheese, such as Cheddar or Parmesan cheese, is ripened for 2 to 24 months at 2 to 16$^{\circ}C$ to develop desired cheese flavor and body characteristics. Long time with low temperature to ripen the cheese requires high expenses. So accelerated cheese ripening is a good potential for saving in industry. Methods for acceleration of cheese ripening are temperature control, addition of bacteria or enzymes. To develop the functionality of cheese, addition of microencapsulated various probiotics and nutrients, such as iron, removal of cholesterol by crosslinked ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin, lowering blood cholesterol and serum glucose by nanopowdered functional materials et al. are necessary. Therefore, this review focused on the functionality of cheese, such as the acceleration of cheese ripening, microencapsulated probiotics and iron, and cholesterol removal.

42세 여자 환자로 유방암으로 인한 항암치료를 위해 왼쪽 쇄골하정맥으로 완전 거치형 정맥도관(totally implantable venous catheter)을 삽입하였다. 삽입 직후 단순 흉부 방사선 사진상 도관에는 특이 소견이 없었다. 환자는 3개월 후 4번째 항암치료를 위해 입원하였으나 도관을 통해 피가 역류되지도 않고 주입되지도 않았다. 단순 흉부 방사선 사진상 도관이 쇄골 밑을 지나는 부위에서 완전 절단되어 있었다. 경피적 방법으로 도관의 원위부위를 성공적으로 제거한 후 환자는 퇴원하였다.

Caval syndrome은 감염된 다수의 심장사상충이 우심방, 우심실을 포함한 우심계와 대정맥으로 이동하여 삼첨판의 움직임을 물리적으로 방해하고 폐동맥으로 가는 혈류의 장애를 유발하여 생명을 위협하는 질환이다. 이 질환의 치료를 위해 외과적인 사상충의 제거가 필요하다. 본 증례는 modified extraction brushes를 이용한 새로운 방법의 심장사상충 제거 방법에 대한 보고이다. 본 연구에서 새롭게 만들어진 사상충 제거 카테터를 사용하여 caval syndrome에 감염된 두 마리의 개를 성공적으로 치료하였다. 비록 새로운 시술법의 적용이 단지 두 증례에 불과하지만, 본 시술법은 심장 사상충 치료를 위한 외과적 제거방법 중 하나로 선택할 수 있다.

Liver functions in diffuse parenchymal liver disease such as cirrhosis of the liver depend largely on the effective hepatic blood flow rather than on the individual cell functions. Clinical methods of measuring the hepatic blood flow were developed recently by the application of colloidal disappearance rate. In order to correlate the radiogold disappearance rate to conventional biochemical liver function tests, 21 normal subjects and 80 cases of cirrhosis of the liver were studied with both methods. The results are summarized as following: 1. The validity of external counting method to measure the blood disappearance rate of colloidal radiogold was confirmed by in vitro counting of the serial blood samples. 2. The blood disappearance rate of collidal radiogold was essentially the same. as the liver uptake rate of colloidal radiogold in normal and cirrhotic subjects with various degrees of functional disturbance. And it seemed there was no serious extrahepatic removal of the colloidal radiogold. 3. The disappearance rate of colloidal radiogold was not significantly changed by the posture change, but was enhanced by ingestion of 500 ml of water. 4. The disappearance rate of colloidal radiogold was not influenced by single dose of Telepaque, while BSP retention was increased after Telepaque. 5. The mean disappearance half time of colloidal radiogold in normal subjects was $2.49{\pm}0.391$(S.D.) minutes. The mean normal disappearance rate constant (K value) was $0.285{\pm}0.0428$(S.D.)/minute. 6. The colloidal radiogold disappearance half time was abnormally prolonged (over 3.2 min.) in $87.7{\pm}3.68$(S.D.) % of cirrhotic subjects. 7. In patients of liver cirrhosis the blood disappearance rate of colloidal radiogold correlated well to serum albumin and globulin levels and BSP retention which were considered to reflect functions of hepatic parenchymal cells. There was, however, no correlation between colloidal disappearance rate and thymol turbidity test, serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase, and serm alkaline phosphatase activities. The latters were considered to be associated with the activity of liver disease.

A soluble dietary fiber, $\beta$-glucan, contained in oat and barley has nutritional benefits such as hypocholesterolemic effects and influences blood glucose regulation. The contents of $\beta$-glucan in both cereals range from 3 to 7% with the exception of a certain barley genotype which contains up to 16% $\beta$-glucan. $\beta$-Glucan is distributed mainly in the cell walls of endosperm and the distal (bran) portion of kernel. Various procedures have been developed for increasing the extraction yield of $\beta$-glucan. Oat gum prepared with weak alkali extractionand alcohol proecipitation following protein removal usually contains 80% $\beta$-glucan.The most commonly used method for $\beta$-glucan quantitiation is an enzymatic procedure combining lichenase plus $\beta$-glucosidase followed by measuring the amount of glucos released by glucose oxidase-peroxidase treatment. The increase in foam-and emulsion-stabilizing capacity of $\beta$-glucan is due to the increase in viscosity of the aqueous phase. Therefore, $\beta$-glucan shows great potentials as a thickener and a stabilizer.

Separating of the facial nerve caused by compression near the blood vessels that cause the blood vessels and surgery when the hemifacial spasm, facial spasms, will disappear. These impacts have occurred very rarely and seen in this paper as facial spasms due to a brain tumor. The size of a brain tumor grows, which will put pressure on the surrounding facial spasm. Treated hemifacial spasm symptoms disappear through the removal of a brain tumor that occurs because saw.

Localized mesothelioma is a primary pleural tumor that induces hypoglycemia rarely. We experienced a case of the localized mesothelioma that induced hypoglycemia. The patient was 70 year-old man who was admitted to Severance Hospital because of general weakness and mental confusion in morning before breakfast. He was found to have low level of fasting blood sugar and C-peptide, but had normal serum insulin level. After excision of the tumor, the patient was free from symptoms of hypoglycemia, and fasting blood sugar level was returned to normal range. The most likely speculation of causing hypoglycemia by the mesothelioma was thought to be that the tumor did not secrete insulin itself but the undetectable insulin-like substance and/or antigluconeogenic substances. During the follow up, 5 months after surgical removal of tumor, the patient was in a good condition without symptoms of hypoglycemia.

Medical catheter tubes are disposable devices that are inserted into the body cavities such as the pleura, trachea, esophagus, stomach, urinary bladder, ureter, or blood vessels for surgical procedures. Each hole of the inner tube is called a lumen, which is used as a passage for drug injections, waste discharge, polypus removal, blood transport, or injection of a camera or sensor. The catheter tube is manufactured by extrusion. The flow in the inner extrusion die affects the thickness and diameter of the tube. In the current study computer simulation of flow in an extrusion die for catheter tubing was performed. Velocity, pressure, shear rate, and shear stress were investigated and the die design was examined.

To evaluate the diagnostic value of pulmonary perfusion scan, we obtained 99mTc MAA per-fusion lung scan from 25 cases of airway foreign bodies. The results were as follows. 1) Significant changes in blood gases were not observed after the establishment of regional hypoperfusion caused by airway foreign body. 2) Near total or total defect was noted on perfusion scan from most of the airway foreign body. 3) There was correspondance of findings of perfusion lung scan and duration of airway foreign body. 4) After the removal of airway foreign bodies, perfusion scan abnormalities were reversed in parallel with the recovery of pulmonary blood flow. We concluded that pulmonary perfusion scan may be valuable for detection of foreign body and reversible hypoperfusion.

Millerozyma farinosa (formerly Pichia farinosa) is halotolerant yeast mainly found in food and ubiquitous in the environment. It was a rare yeast pathogen, but it has recently emerged as a cause of fungemia in immunocompromised patients. Optimal therapy for invasive fungal infection by this pathogen remains unclear. We report a case of catheter related blood stream infection caused by M. farinosa in a 71-year-old patient who recovered successfully after removal of the central venous catheter and treatment with micafungin.
