This study was performed to obtain the basic data on physiological responses of low water temperature stress of the cultured Pacific abalone, Haliotis discus hannai. Abalones were exposed at low water temperatures of $7^{\circ}C$ and $4^{\circ}C$. We have investigated survival rate, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and total protein (TP) in the abalone by the exposure times (0, 3, 6, 12, 24, 72, 120, 168 and 216 hours). Survival rate of the abalone at $7^{\circ}C$ experiment was 90.8%, whereas at $4^{\circ}C$ experiment was 0% after exposure 10 days. SOD activity was significantly increased until 12 hours after exposure to $4^{\circ}C$, and then was recovered to starting level after 24 hours. However, there was no significant difference between control ($12^{\circ}C$) and $7^{\circ}C$ experiments. TP was significantly increased until 216 hours after 24 hours at $4^{\circ}C$ experiment, but $7^{\circ}C$ experiment showed no significant differences compared to control ($12^{\circ}C$) experiment. Therefore, H. discus hannai was acclimated in low water temperature stress at $7^{\circ}C$, but at $4^{\circ}C$, all abalone died possibly because they exceed the limits of defense ability to too low temperature.

Of the several methods proposed for decreasing toxicity of Paralytic shellfish poison(PSP) from intoxicated shellfish, heat treatment has been most popular, although a large percentage of the incidents of PSP illness have been related to the ingestion of cooked shellfish. The purpose of this study was to determine the kinetics of PSP destruction at various temperatures. The homogenate of intoxicated blue mussel(Mytilus edulis) was heated at temperature ranging from $90\;to\;121^{\circ}C$ and toxicities measured in samples heated for various time intervals. The rate constant(k) per second was $3{\times}10^{-4},\;at\;90^{\circ}C,\;4.98{\times}10^{-4},\;at\;100^{\circ}C,\;7.38{\times}10^{-4},\;at\;116^{\circ}C,\;and\;8.38{\times}10^{-4},\;at\;121^{\circ}C,\;$. By the Arrhenius equation, the decimal reduction time(D-value) was $121min.\;at\;90^{\circ}C,\;82min,\;at\;100^{\circ}C,\;58min.\;at\;116^{\circ}C\;and\;53min.\;at\;121^{\circ}C$. The z-value, activation energy($E_a\;and\;Q_{10}$) was $72^{\circ}C,\;3.9{\times}10^7(J/kg\;mol)$ and 1.39, respectively.

Vacuum deposited 4,4',4"-tris(N-(2-naphthyl)-N-phenylamino)-triphenylamine (2-TNATA), used as a hole injection (HIL) material in OLEDs, is placed as a thin interlayer between indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode and a hole transporting layer (HTL) in the devices. C60-doped 2-TNATA:C60 (20 wt%) film was formed via co-evaporation process and molecular ordering and topology of 2-TNATA:C60 films were investigated using XRD and AFM. The J-V, L-V and current efficiency of multi-layered devices were characterized as well. Vacuum-deposited C60 film was molecularly oriented, but neither was 2-TNATA:C60 film due to the uniform dispersion of C60 molecules in the film. By using C60-doped 2-TNATA:C60 film as a HIL, the current density and luminance of a multi-layered ITO/2-TNATA:C60/NPD/$Alq_3$/LiF/Al device were significantly increased and the current efficiency of the device was increased from 4.7 to 6.7 cd/A in the present study.

Changes in cooking properties of kidney beans A (reddish purple), B (mosaic), and C (pale yellow) during storage at $4^{\circ}$, $20^{\circ}$ and $30^{\circ}C$ for 5 months were examined. The weight and volume gains of raw beans during soaking at $30^{\circ}C$ were the greatest in kidney bean A followed by B and C, which were decreased from 3 months storage at $30^{\circ}C$. The weight gain, solid loss and hardness of cooked beans at $100^{\circ}C$ for 40 min decreased from 3 months of storage at $30^{\circ}C$ in all samples. The amylograms of whole kidney bean flours showed no peak and continuous increase of viscosity during heating. The kidney bean A showed the higher values in all reference points than kidney beans B and C which had similar amylogram patterns.

Purpose: The objective of this study was to examine the association of temperature-fluctuation with freshness quality in various foods. Methods: We investigated the effects of storage conditions on antioxidant activities of cherries and romaine lettuce during storage at $0.7{\pm}0.6^{\circ}C$, $1.2{\pm}1.4^{\circ}C$, and $1.6{\pm}2.8^{\circ}C$. Cherries and romaine lettuce were stored for a period of 9 days and 7 days, respectively. We also analyzed the effects of storage conditions on fresh quality of beef and salmon during storage at $-0.3{\pm}0.8^{\circ}C$, $-0.6{\pm}2.3^{\circ}C$, and $-1.5{\pm}4.4^{\circ}C$. Both of them were stored for a period of 14 days. Results: The amount of water loss was highest in beef, and the microbial count was also the highest at $-1.5{\pm}4.4^{\circ}C$. In the case of salmon, there was no difference in water loss according to storage, and TBA value was significantly increased at $-1.5{\pm}4.4^{\circ}C$. Moisture retention was the highest at $0.7{\pm}0.6^{\circ}C$ in both romaine lettuce and cherry samples. The contents of polyphenol and flavonoid were significantly higher in cherries, and content of polyphenols in romaine lettuce was significantly higher at $0.7{\pm}0.6^{\circ}C$ (p < 0.05). DPPH activity decreased in the order of $0.7{\pm}0.6^{\circ}C$ > $1.2{\pm}1.4^{\circ}C$ > $1.6{\pm}2.8^{\circ}C$ over 7 days. Conclusion: The results indicate that temperature-fluctuation may affect qualities of foods stored in a refrigerator.

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of root zone warming on rhizosphere temperature of Oriental melon (Cucumis melo L. var. Makuwa) in winter season. Root zone was warmed by hot water flowing through pipe set at 35cm depth from the ridge. Treatments of minimum soil temperature at 20cm depth were 17, 21, $25^{\circ}C$, and non-warmed from Jan. 18 to Apr. 18. The results are summarized as follows. 1. The cumulative soil temperature for 1 month after planting oriental melon was 441, 558, 648, and 735$^{\circ}C$ at control, 17, 21, and $25^{\circ}C$ plot, respectively. 2. As soil temperature was higher, air temperature in tunnel was higher. The lowest temperature in control plot at night was 9.5$^{\circ}C$, 11.$0^{\circ}C$ in 17$^{\circ}C$ plot, 13.5$^{\circ}C$ in 21$^{\circ}C$ plot, and 16.5$^{\circ}C$ in $25^{\circ}C$ plot, respectively. 3. The xylem exudate amount of control plot for 24 hours just after basal stem abscission was 8.1$m\ell$. It was 1.2 times higher in 17$^{\circ}C$ plot, 1.3 times higher in 21 $^{\circ}C$ plot, and 4.8 times higher in $25^{\circ}C$ plot than in control plot at 30 days after planting. The xylem exudate amount at 67 days after planting of control plot was 10.4$m\ell$, those of 17, 21, $25^{\circ}C$ plots were 1.1, 3.2, and 3.3 times as compared to control plot. 4, Early growth in leaf length, stem diameter, leaf number and leaf area for 30 days after planting were better in higher temperature plots than in control plot. Particularly, the increase of leaf area was striking in higher temperature plots. Leaf area of control plot was 279.5$\textrm{cm}^2$ for 30 days after planting, 153.4% in 17$^{\circ}C$ plot, 745.6% in 21$^{\circ}C$ plot and 879.4% in $25^{\circ}C$ plot were increased as compared to in control plot.

Effects of K2SO4 and Na2SO4 on C3S formation and its microstructure were investigated. C3S formation was not influenced by addition up to 6.0wt% of K2SO4 as SO3 base, however it was prevented by only 1.0wt% of Na2SO4 addition. C3S prevention by added Na2SO4 was the reason why C2S stabilized by Na+ and SO42- could not react to C3S. Added K2SO4 appeared as K2SO4, however added Na2SO4 appeared as the form of Na2xCa3-xAl2O6, (Na0.8Ca0.1)SO4 and Na2SO4 in interstitial phase.

This study presents experimental results of heat transfer characteristics of P.C.M. during outward melting process in a vertical cylinder. The experiment was carried out in six conditions, i. e., three different inlet temperature($7^{\circ}C,\;4^{\circ}C\;and\;1^{\circ}C$) and two directions of working fluid(upward and downward). Melting P.C.M. produced a bell-shaped phase change interface. When the inlet temperature was $7^{\circ}C$, the lower region remained at $4^{\circ}C$ until the temperature of upper region reached $4^{\circ}C$. This was due to the state of maximum density of the lower region. When the direction of the working fluid in the case of $7^{\circ}C$, inlet temperature, was upward, the rate of melting and the total melting energy were higher than when it's direction was downward. But the rate of melting and the total melting energy appeared higher value as it's direction was downward when the inlet temperature is $4^{\circ}C$ and $1^{\circ}C$.
