In this study, we investigated the feasibility of non-destructive determination of internal quality factors of Fuji apple fruit using near infrared(NIR) reflectance spectroscopy and developed the calibration models. As the reference methods, refractometer, titration and texture analyzer for sugar content, acidity and firmness were used, respectively. Samples were scanned from 1100∼2500nm with InfraAlyzer 500C spectrometer and SESAME software was used for data analysis. A multiple linear regression(MLR) analysis was performed to develop the calibrations. The correlation coefficient(R) and standard error of prediction(SEP) were as follows; 0.91, 0.41$^{\circ}$Brix for sugar content, 0.90, 0.04% for acidity and 0.84, 0.094 kg for firmness, respectively. This study shows that NIR spectroscopy can be used to evaluate the sugar content acidity and firmness of apple fruit with acceptable accuracy.

The carpophores of three Korean mushrooms, Coriolus versicolor, Pleurotus ostreatus, and Lentinus edodes were respectively extracted with hot water and the extract were dialyzed through Visking tube. They were found to contain an antinumor activity against sarcoma 180 implanted in mice. The components of these aqueous extracts were found to be polysaccharide and protein by color reactions including anthrone and Lowry-Folin tests. The hydrolysis of the polysaccharide with 3% HCI-MeOH and trimethylsilylation yielded four monosaccharides : glucose, mannose, galactose and xylose which were identified by G. L. C. After hydrolysis of protein with 6N HCL, fourteen to seventeen amino acids including aspartic and glutamic acids were detected by an amino acid analyzer.

Disposable, amperometric glucose sensor was constructed using platinised carbon paste electrode. The sensor response was studied by amperometry and cyclic voltammetry applying sample solutions on the strip-type electrode. Platinization of screen-printed carbon paste electrode effectively improved the electrochemical reversibility of a mediator and the analytical characteristics of the sensor. The heterogeneous rate constant for $[Fe(CN)_6]^{4-/3-}$ was $1.45\times10^{-2}cm{\cdot}s^{-1}$. An applied potential of 0.3V vs. Ag/AgCl resulted in the best selectivity for glucose. The apparent Michaelis-Menten constant for glucose on the strip sensor, $K_m^{app}$, was 24.5 mM. To evaluate the analytical performance of the glucose sensor strip, a correlation study was performed with the NOVA S.P, Ultra M analyzer for 30 serum samples containing $80\~297mg/dL$ of glucose: the correlation coefficient value was 0.983. It can be seen that the strip sensor has satisfactory precision and accuracy.

Glycyrrhiza uralensis (licorice root) is very useful medicinal herb because of strong anti-inflammatory and anti-wrinkle effect. Therefore, it is widely used in functional cosmetics. However, it is insoluble and easily decomposed by light, heat, oxygen, etc. In this study, we first prepared NanoSolve-Licorice (30-50nm) using Glycyrrhiza uralensis and propylene glycol! hydrogenated lecithin/caprylic/capric triglyceride/glycerin/water system with microfluidizer. And then, NanoSolve-Licorice and porous PMMA are dispersed in ethanol. Finally, we could get a stabilized system with high-pressure homogenizer (1,000 Bar, 3 passes). According to HPLC measurement for glabridin content, our system is more stable compared with general liposome ones. Capsulated licorice has an enhanced anti-inflammatory effect on account of excellent skin penetration. We also evaluated our final product through image analyzer, particle size analyzer, FF-TEM and chromameter.

Uniform and optimum sized silver nanoplates were synthesized through the liquid phase reduction method by using silver nitrate solution as a starting chemical, dimethylformmide (DMF) as a reducing solvent, and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as reducing and surfactant agents. Synthesized and also film samples were characterized by using SEM, TEM, UV-Vis-NIR spectroscopy, particle size analyzer (PSA), and XRD. Triangle nanoplates with the size of 100~200 nm were found from the sample synthesized at $70^{\circ}C$ for 72 h using silver nitrate, DMF and 26 wt% PVP. The sample could reflect near-infrared light because it showed the maximum absorbing peak at about 1,000 nm. When the content or particle size of silver nanoplates increased in coating solutions, the transmittance decreased and the reflectance increased in film samples.

Hydroxyapatite (HAP) containing hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC) as a cationic surfactant was prepared by a precipitation method. X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and micropore physisorption analyzer were used for characterizing the crystal phase, morphology and specific surface area of HAP and CTAC-HAP. After thermal treatment, the specific surface area of both pure HAP and CTAC-HAP were reduced. The sharp rod morphology of CTAC-HAP was changed into a round shape with a smaller aspect ratio after the heat treatment. The morphological change by thermal treatment was also observed in pure HAP. Therefore, the morphological change and decrease of the specific surface area suggested that pores from the removal of CTAC during thermal treatment were not retained.

Plasma polymerized organic thin films were deposited on Si(100) glass and metal substrates using thiophene and ethylcyclohexane precursors by PECVD method. In order to compare electrochemical properties of the as-grown thin films, the effects of the RF plasma power in the range of 30~100 W. AFM showed that the polymer films with smooth surface and sharp interface could be grown under various deposition conditions. Impedance analyzer was utilized for the determination of I-V curve for leakage current density and C-V for dielectric constants, respectively. To obtain C-V curve, we used a MIM structure of metal(Al)-insulator(plasma polymerized thin film)-metal(Pt) structure. Al as the electrode was evaporated on the thiophene films that grew on Pt coated silicon substrates, and the dielectric constants of the as-grown films were then calculated from C- V data measured at 1MHz. From the electrical property measurements such as I-V and C-V characteristics, the minimum dielectric constant and the best leakage current of thiophene thin films were obtained to be about 3.22 and $1{\;}{\times}10^{-11}{\;}A/cm^2$. However, in case of ethylcyclohexane thin films, the minimum dielectric constant and the best leakage current were obtained to be about 3.11 and $5{\;}{\times}10^{-12}{\;}A/cm^2$.

A tiny dust found at the balcony of the Institute indicated about 8,0000 counts per minute by T.G.C.-2 Geiger-Muller tube (1.8mg/$cm^2$ window-thickness) at the distance of 2cm from the window. The main fission fragments, as identified by the present analysis, are 12.5day Ba-140 and 33.1 day Ce-141. The gamma energies were determined using $2"{\times}2"$ NaI(Tl) scintillation detector connected to RCL-256 channel pulse heigt analyzer. The beta energies were evaluated by Feather plot.

In this study, sensitizing dye was prepared by the reaction of 2-methyl-3-sulfopropyl-4, 5-naphthothiazolium(inner salt) with triethyl orthoformate in the presence of triethylamine. The product was identified by using various analytical tools such as Elemental analyzer, IR spectrophotometer, UV-Vis spectrophotometer, $^1H-NMR$ spectrometer, TGA and DSC. Therefore, it was concluded that naphthothiazolo carbocyanine dye can be used as red-sensitizing dye for the spectral sensitization of photographic emulsion.
