Industrial-scale Ca-fortified Dangmyon was manufactured with added casein phosphopeptides (CPP) to increase Ca adsorption in the intestine. Very low P content in eggshell Ca (egg Ca) and Dangmyon could make it possible to indirectly measure CPP content in Dangmyon. Partitions of the whole P present in Dangmyon were made into sweet potato, egg Ca, and CPP. The CPP content was obtained by multiplying CPP per P by the amount of P partitioned into CPP. It was found that 88.46% of CPP was obtained. However, when milk Ca, which was much higher in P, was added to fortify Dangmyon with CPP, it was found that the CPP content was either under- or over-estimated. Care must be taken when a much higher content of P as a Ca source is selected using this method. It was discovered that the added Ca and CPP were retained after cooking at boiling temperature; therefore, Dangmyon could be an excellent Ca and CPP carrier for humans.

A feeding trial was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary carotenoid source and level on growth and skin color of red- and white-colored fancy carp Cyprinus carpio var. koi. Nine experimental diets (designated as CON, SP5, SP10, AS50, AS100, CA50, CA100, PA5 and PA10) were formulated to contain 5-10% Spirulina powder, 5-10% paprika powder, 50-100 ppm astaxanthin and 50-100 ppm canthaxanthin. The CON diet without supplementation of carotenoid source was considered as the control diet. Each experimental diet was fed to three replicate groups of fish (3.6 g/fish) to visual satiation three times a day for 8 weeks. Survival, growth and feed efficiency of fish were not significantly affected by dietary inclusion of carotenoid source and level (P>0.05). After 8 weeks feeding period, the values of $a^*$, $L^*$and $b^*$ of fish skin were significantly changed by dietary carotenoid source (P<0.05), but not carotenoid level. The $a^*$ value of fish fed the diets containing CA and PA was higher than control and SP diets (P<0.05). Based on the results of this study, it can be concluded that dietary inclusion of 50 ppm canthaxanthin or 5% paprika powder could increase the redness of red-and white-colored fancy carp fingerling.

The purpose of this study was to estimate radiation doses from 64-slice single source Computed Tomography(SSCT) coronary angiography(CA) and 128-slice dual source Computed Tomography(DSCT). With SSCT CA, the effective dose averaged approximately 13.86 mSv when two dose modulation was not. The mean effective dose for DSCT CA with retrospectively gated helical(RGH) technique was 11.87 mSv, when prospective ECG gating transverse(PGT) without dose modulation technique was 5.61 mSv. The one with dose modulation in PGT technique and flash mode were 3.04 mSv and flash mode was 0.98 mSv respectively. The lifetime attributable risk(LAR) of cancer incidence from SSCT RGH mode averaged approximately 1 for 1,176, and DSCT averaged 1 for 1,960(RGH mode), 1 for 3,030(PGT without modulation), 1 for 5,882(PGT with modulation). Because of CTCA is associated with non-negligible risk of cancer. Doses can be reduced by application PGT, FLASH than RGH using DSCT.

CaO ceramics were prepared by conventional sintering process and their hydration behaviors were evaluated by measuring weight increment on saturated water vapor pressure at ambient temperature. CaCO$_3$ and limestone were used as CaO source materials and $Al_2$O$_3$, MgO and SiO$_2$ were added as sintering agents. $Al_2$O$_3$ was a liquid phase sintering agent to increase densification and grain growth rates, whereas MgO and SiO$_2$, densification and grain growth inhibitors. Regardless of composition, all of the prepared CaO ceramics showed the improved hydration resistance as bulk density increased. Especially, when bulk density was more than 3.0 g/㎤, there was no weight increment after 120 h of hydration. Therefore, to decrease contact area between CaO and water vapor by increasing bulk density with the $Al_2$O$_3$ sintering additive was effective for the improvement of CaO hydration resistance.

Epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) is an important etiologic factor for the development of peritoneal fibrosis in CAPD patients. Mesothelial cells are main source of trans-differentiated fibroblasts under stress from the bioincompatible peritoneal dialysate. In our study there was no difference in dialysate TGF-${\beta}$ and VEGF between the low and high GDP groups during an initial 12 months. However, after adjusting with D-CA125, the low GDPs group showed a significantly lower D-TGF-${\beta}$/D-CA125 and D-VEGF/CA125 during the initial 12 months. Among the adjusted peritoneal growth factors for CA125, VEGF/CA125 and TGF-b/CA125 were factors significantly associated with greater EMT in this study. Adjustment of the peritoneal growth factor for effluent CA125 (surrogate for mass of HPMCs) revealed significant association with EMT suggesting that the fibroblastoid transition from HPMCs could be affected by the amount of intraperitoneal growth factors (TGF-b, VEGF) per unit mass of HPMCs. There was significant improvement in both cell score and D-CA125 at the sixth and 12th months after switching from a high GDPs solution to a low GDPs solution. Use of icodextrin solution in patients who had average peritoneal transport showed not only better systemic effects such as decreased glucose absorption via dialysate but also preservation of the peritoneum, including less EMT and high mesothelial bulk mass. In conclusion, Therapy with low GDP solution including icodextrin may positively impact preservation of the peritoneal membrane integrity and prevention of peritoneal fibrosis with time on PD.

Quality characteristics of mul-kimchi prepared using eastern deep seawater added with $0.1\%$ chitosan-ascorbate (CA) were investigated during fermentation for 12 days at $10^{\circ}C$, in an effort to effectively utilize the eastern deep seawater in Korea. Four water sources were considered for preparation of mul-kimchi; (1)distilled water added with $1\%$ mineral salt (DW), (2) eastern deep seawater (containing $6\%$ salt) diluted to $1\%$ salt concentration with distilled water (ED), (3) DW+CA (DW-CA), and (4) ED+CA (ED-CA). Juice of mul-kimchi prepared with ED-CA as a water source showed higher PH and antioxidant activity, and lower acidity, total microbe numbers, turbidity and alcohol insoluble substance compared with those Prepared with other three water sources. The former also showed higher overall acceptability compared with the latter. This study demonstrated the possibility of use of eastern deep seawater added with chitosan-ascorbate as a water source for extension of shelf-life of mul-kimchi.

A field experiment was conducted to find out the effects of liming (soil pH) and sources of N on the chemical constituents of soil and leaf lamina of burley tobacco. Treatments consisted of liming (nonliming, liming to soil pH 5.5 and 6.5) as the main plot and N sources［compound fertilizer of containing 3.9% $NH_4-N$ and 6.1% $NH_2-N,\;NaNO_3,\;(NH_2)_2CO\;and\;(NH_4)_2SO_4$］as the sub-plot. The soil pH was high in $NaNO_2$ plot, while low in $(NH_4)_2SO_4$. But the differences of Ca concentration in top soil among N sources were not detected. The $NO_3-N$ concentration in top soil was high in high limed and $NaNO_3$ plot. The $NO_3-N$ content of leaf (lamina) at 75 days after transplanting was high in $NaNO_3$ plot and CaO con-tent of leaf at 45 days after transplanting was high in high limed plot. But neither liming nor N source had effect on the contents of total nitrogen, $P_2-O_{5}\;and\;K_2O$ of leaf during growing season. There was no significant differences in total alkaloid and total nitrogen contents of cured leaf (lamina) to liming and N source. But when the source of N was $NaNO_3$, the content of total alkaloid was increased by adding lime. When the source of N was $(NH_4$)_2SO_4$, the content of $K_2O$ in cured leaf was high while CaO was low. But neither liming nor N source had effect on the contents of $P_2-O_{5}$ and MgO in cured leaf.

It was hypothesized that variations within the range of usual calcium(Ca) and sodium(Na) intakes of Korean influence bone mineral density(BMD) in healthy premenopausal women The relationship of nutrient intake urinary excretion physical activity and circulating IGF-1 level with spine({{{{ { L}_{2 } }}}}-{{{{ { L}_{4 } }}}}) and femur BMD was determined in 47 normal premenpausal women. There was a positive relationship between BMD of the lumbar spine and body weight. The BMD of femoral neck was positively correlated with Ca and protein intakes from animal source and circulating IGF-1 level. There was a negative relationship between femur BMD and both Na intake and urinary excretion. The complex interrelations between femur BMD regression analysis, From this analysis. Ca intake from animal origin was the only significnat Premenopausal women of femur BMD. In the basis of femur BMD three groups were divided Premenopausal women of femur BMD$\leq$0.84g/cm2 showed depressed Ca intake of animal origin in later and early life and enhanced urinary Na excretion compared to women of femur study suggests that dietary Ca is a major constituent affecting femur BMD because of a decrease in net Ca absorption and an increase in urinary Ca loss.

Geochemical and isotopic analyses were carried out to investigate hydrochemical characteristics, source of carbon species in the carbonated waters in South Korea. Most Korean carbonated waters from different geologic settings are characterized by a Ca-HCO$_3$type with a relatively low pH range from 5.3 to 6.3 (avg. 6.0). The concentrations of cations and anions in the carbonate waters are in the order of Ca$^{2＋}$>Na$^{＋}$>Mg$^{2＋}$>Si$^{4＋}$>Fe$^{2＋}$>K$^{＋}$ and HCO$_3$$^{－}$>SO$_4$$^{2－}$>Cl$^{－}$, respectively. The HCO$_3$$^{－}$ ion is more enriched in the carbonated water from the sedimentary rock and granitic rock of Mesozoic age in the Gyungsang basin(GII) and the Precambrian metamorphic rock and Jurassic granitic rocks of the Gyunggj massif in the Gangwon province(GⅠ) than those of the meta-sedimentary rock and granite in the Ogcheon zone(GⅢ). Based on the oxygen and hydrogen isotopic data, the carbonated waters are derived from the meteoric water, showing apparent latitude and altitude effects. The $delta$$^{13}$C values of carbon species in the carbonated water are in between -6.23 and 0.0 $textperthousand$, suggesting inorganic source of carbon originated from the carbonate mineral and carbonate rock in the aquifer.
