Color correction methods of chromaticity coordinates using Color Matching Function (CMF) were studied to develop a device-independent portable-type urine analyzer. The reflection spectra were measured for the degrees of 10 test items of the urine reagent strip (urine strip) to develop a portable-type urine analyzer. A computer simulation was performed to quantitatively distinguish the color reactions of the urine system, by using the spectral power distribution of Light Emitting Diode(LED), the reflection of a urine strip, and spectral sensitivity of a photodiode. To develop a device-independent system, chromaticity coordinates were modified to reduce the color deviations in the urine strip, by using the temperature compensation of LED and the color transformation by CMF. The experimental values obtained by developed urine system exhibited the accuracy above 95% for all color samples.

This paper presents an urine analyzer using color images of strip. An image sensor has been used to acquire an color images. The analyzer has a characteristics which takes a pictures of independent each pad responding to urine items all at once, and outputs the measured urine values by analysing an acquired pad colors. This device measures and analyses 11 urine items, and has a speed-up operation, light weight, small size, and makes accurate observations by processing the measured colors using processor. The urine analyzer transmits the urine items to peripheral devices, personal computers, hospitals, and another places by using a telegraph and a wireless interfaces.

We introduce Gaussian (or paraxial) optics that can be successfully applied to design, for use in a color analyzer, a non-imaging optical system on a measurement probe for LCD display. The color analyzer is used to decompose colored lights leaving from some measurement area on the LCD display to red, green, and blue. The color analyzer must include a condenser lens whose purpose is to gather colored lights to illuminate a small area on the sensor. In order to satisfy a reduction ratio between the measurement area and the sensing area with a non-imaging condition, a condenser lens is analytically treated by means of Gaussian optics so that good understanding of the non-imaging condenser lens is achieved as a good design is derived. As a result, the technique shows the necessity of analytical treatment in contrast to the design approach using only commercial software such as CODE-V, Light-Tools, and others. Of course, CODE V and Light-Tools are also utilized in this paper to confirm and complete the Gaussian optical design.

This study was conducted to develop a electronic circuit of primary color reaction for urine analyzer for measuring color response of urine strip. A primary color reaction system is equipped with the computer, electronic circuit, tray, detecting assembly and software. The determination of coefficient($R^2$) between reagent and color sensor were 0.9801(R), 0.9868(G) and 0.9837(B). To evaluate the system verification, we measured the primary color reaction of erythrocytes, Bilirubin, Urobilinogen, Ketones and Protein. We concluded that it is possible to use the developed the primary color reaction system for urine analyzer using u-health.

This research examines the engineering properties and color intensities of mortar containing different amounts of fly ash (0, 5, 10 and 20%) mixed at different water-to-binder ratios (w/b = 0.23, 0.47 and 0.59) and exposed at different temperatures (T = 25, 100, 200, 400, 600 and $800^{\circ}C$). Results show that there is greater mass loss on ignition with high w/b and higher temperatures. In addition, the color channel image analyzer (Windows software written in Delphi) is utilized to study the relationship between the curing temperature and intensity of three primary colors, red, green and blue (RGB), of the fly ash mortar specimens. The results show that the RGB intensities on the specimen surface increases from that at $25^{\circ}C$. The mortar specimen becomes white with increase in w/b but without the addition of fly ash. Moreover, for mortar specimens with greater content of fly ash, red on the specimen surface has the greatest increase in intensity at elevated temperature. Observation the variations in color on the specimen surface may help estimate the highest elevated temperatures that concrete structures can withstand.

A computer simulation was performed to distinguish quantitatively a color reaction in a urine analysis systems by using the spectral power distribution of LEDs, the spectral reflectance of a urine strip, and the spectral sensitivity of photodiode. The CIE tristimulus values and CIE chromaticity coordinates ware modified to be conformable with real color reactions in a urine strips. Results on color simulation showed a of real color in comparison with those obtained by Colorimeter CM2C(Color Savvy).

This study was carried out to make the new products of color moot as a functional food by variation of the color and flavor through addition of gamgyul, Daccus Carota Var. Sativa, Vitis vinifera, soy sauce, and Pimpinella brachycarpa N., respectively. For all the products, the color was observed by Colorimeter and the sensory evaluation was performed to evaluate their effectiveness and usefulness. The A$_w$ (water activity) test of color mooks has performed to examine their water activity individually. The A$_w$ of color moot was higher than that of the white one. The characters of texture of color mook as a function of the amount of the color and the flavor added were measured by a texture analyzer (XT-RA, Texturometer). By the TPA test, the rainbow and orange color mook examined were high in the springiness.

In this paper, intermediate cyan coupler was prepared by the reaction of 2-nitro-4, 6-dichloro-5-methylphenol with Pd(5wt%). The product was identified by using various analytical tools such as melting point, elemental analyzer, IR spectrophotometer and mass spectrometer. The reaction of intermediate cyan coupler with CD-3(color development agent) was shown cyan color.

The quality characteristics of bread prepared with the addition of dried persimmon peel powder(PPP) were investigated. Visco-elastic characteristics of dough and texture of bread added PPP was examined by rapid visco-analyzer and texture analyzer. The maximum viscosity of the dough with PPP was lower than that of control at 90$\^{C}$. Final viscosity after cooling to 50$\^{C}$, viscosity of control increased to 134 B.U., but that of the dough with PPP showed 13∼37 B.U. As more PPP was added, gluten formation and mixing time dough were longer. Adhesiveness, springness, cohesiveness and chewiness gradually increased as PPP content increased, while the hardness decreased. Lightness value decreased but redness and yellowness values increased with the addition of PPP, especially, the bread made by 15% PPP treatment showed dark brown color. In sensory evaluation of bread, score of color decreased significantly as more PPP was added but overall acceptability was not significant different(p<0.05) between control and 5% PPP treatment. It is considered that the addition of 5% was appropriate for bread making with PPP.
