To quantitatively evaluate the total phenolics, total flavonoids, and antioxidant capacity in the leaves, bulbs, and roots of fresh Allium hookeri, they were extracted using various solvents including water, aqueous methanol (20, 40, 60, and 80%; v/v), and absolute methanol. The leaves had the highest levels of total phenolics (240.4-276.6 mg gallic acid equivalents/100 g) and total flavonoids (9.7-34.1 mg catechin equivalents/100 g). The highest antioxidant capacities of 78.7- 103.4 mg vitamin C equivalents (VCE)/100 g, 24.4-59.0 mg VCE/100 g, and 1,798.8-2,169.7 mg VCE/100 g in the leaves were also observed using 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), and oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assays, respectively. The total phenolics had a higher linear correlation with antioxidant capacity than the total flavonoids. In general, 60% (v/v) aqueous methanol extract had higher levels of total phenolics and flavonoids, and higher antioxidant capacity than any other solvents used. This study suggested that A. hookeri might be a good source of phenolics and antioxidants.

This study was conducted to determine the effects of dietary swine manure and food waste on feeding and drinking behaviours in broiler chicks. A total of 240 birds with 40g of initial weight were randomly assigned in the 8$\times$3 randomized complete block design and 10 birds per replicate. Extrusion recycled feeds(ERF) were prepared by extruding a mixture of 40% swine manure+40% food waste(FW)+20% corn. The birds assigned to one of the 8 dietary regimens; 0, 10, 30, 40% ERF of 20, 40, 60% FW in the place of a commercial boiler starter diet. Video recording were made after one week of adaptation period to the regimen. The tapes were played in a slow motion to examine feeding and drinking behaviour. Feeding and drinking times were greater in the day time at the night. Feeding times peaked at 4 hour intervals. Drinking time increased about 2 times on FW feeding compared to the other treatment groups. The results indicated that feeding and drinking behaviour could be influenced by the dietary regimens and that FW feeding increased drinking. The data also suggested that the FW could replace within 40% of broiler starter diet.

The Helium cooled ceramic reflector(HCCR) test blanket module(TBM) has been designed and developed to participate the ITER(International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) test blanket program in Korea. The TBM was one of the main objectives for developing ITER for proving the tritium self-sufficiency and the heat transfers to produce the electricity with the breeding blanket concept. Among the TBM components, the first wall(FW) was the most important component in safety since it was directly faced a high level of a heat and fast neutrons from the plasma side and could protect the others components inside TBM. In this paper, the FW has been designed through the thermo-mechanical analysis considering ITER operation conditions. With the developed simple models, the stress limit analysis based on RCC-MR code which is the nuclear power plant design codes in France was evaluated for the allowable design criteria. The results showed that the designed FW model satisfied $1.5S_m$ or $3S_m$ of the allowable stress($S_m$) in RCC-MR code at the maximum stress region in the FW.

To investigate the effect of seaweed (SW) addition on anaerobic co-digestion of food waste (FW) and sewage sludge (SS), batch experiments were conducted at various substrate concentrations (2.5, 5.0, 7.5, and 10.0 g volatile solids (VS)/L) and mixing ratios ((FW or SS):SW = 100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75, and 0:100 on a VS basis). The effect of SW addition on FW digestion was negligible at low substrate concentration, while it was substantial at high substrate concentrations by balancing the rate of acidogenesis and methanogenesis. At 10 g VS/L, $CH_4$ production yield was increased from 103 to $350mL\;CH_4/g$ VS by SW addition (FW:SW = 75:25). On the other hand, SW addition to SS enhanced the digestion performance at all substrate concentrations, by providing easily biodegradable organics, which promoted the hydrolysis of SS. $k_{hyd}$ (hydrolysis constant) value was increased from 0.19 to $0.28d^{-1}$ by SW addition. The calculation showed that the synergistic $CH_4$ production increment by co-digesting with SW accounted for up to 24% and 20% of total amount of $CH_4$ production in digesting FW and SS, respectively.

The objective of the present study was to compare of the effects of four molting methods on performance of laying hens. In total, 120 White Leghorn layers (62 weeks of age) were used. The four molting methods consisted of 10 days of feeding and the first 3 days of water withdrawal (FW1, 2) followed by ad libitum access to a layer diet 1 and 2 from day 11; 28 days of restricted feeding (NFW1); 28 days without withdrawing their feed (NFW2). Egg production of postmolt decreased until $3{\sim}4$ days at FW1 and FW2 treatments and until $16{\sim}18$ days at NFW1 and NFW2. 50% recovery of egg production were 7, 6, 7 and 5 week at FW1, FW2, NFW1, and NFW2 treatments, respectively. At day 14 of postmolt, the weight of livers, hearts, and oviducts decreased at molting treatments (P<0.05). Egg quality was improved on egg weight, eggshell thickness, eggshell break strength, and Haugh unit except egg yolk color (P<0.05).

The safe operation of electro railways is greatly dependant on its protective systems. The system so-called Fault Protection Wire(FW) is now widely adapted to protect in AT feeding systems. It is connected between the feeder and trolley circuit to return the fault current to autotransfonmers at substation. This paper computed the distribution of fault currents at FW in the system and also evaluated the safety from electric shock when ground fault or flashover occur in the feeding system. The results show FW is useful to protect power supply network from fault in electric railways

Paprika is a popular vegetable with high visual appeal and desirable flavor, the health benefits of which are increasingly attracting interest. In this study, the physical qualities, antioxidant content, and activities of six mini paprika cultivars were investigated. Both the edible part (flesh) and the by-products were studied. The average total phenolics and total antioxidant activities were higher in the flesh than in the by-products. The total flavonoids of the flesh and the byproducts were 16.41 and 37.80 mg/100 g FW, respectively. "YW glory" and "Raon yellow" flesh had the highest (245.52 mg/100 g FW) and lowest (179.96 mg/100 g FW) total phenolics among the six cultivars, respectively. However, the "RD glory" cultivar showed the highest total phenolic content (232.70 mg/100 g FW) among the by-product samples. The total phenolics in the flesh and by-products were highly correlated to the ABTS radical scavenging activity, with R=0.961 and 0.984, respectively.

This work was carried out to investigate the effect of the induced molting with low-protein and energy diet on the postmolt performance of layers. Eighty White Leghorn layers (61-old-wk) with over 80% egg production were used for 12 weeks in this work. Treatments were non-molt control (CO), fasting treatment for 10 days (FW), molt treatment with low-protein and low-energy molting diet for 3 weeks (LO), and molt treatment with standard molting diet for 3 weeks (ST) as 4 treatments (2 replications/treatment and 10 birds/replication). Body weight (BW) loss was 26.5% of initial BW at 2 week in FW treatment, and was 17.3% and 14.2% in both LO and ST treatments (P<0.05). Layers in molting treatments were fed with commercial layer diet after completion of molting since BW of layers was recovered for 7 weeks. Heart weight ratio was shown as 0.47, 0.43, 0.46 and 0.46% at CO, FW, LO and ST treatments, respectively, and liver weight ration of body weight was shown as 2.56, 1.30, 1.47 and 1.52%, respectively. Thus, those of molting treatments decreased compared to non-molt control (P<0.05). Oviduct weight ratio were shown as 3.95, 1.17, 1.54 and 1.67%, respectively, and similar with the results of liver (P<0.05). Feed intake decreased at LO and ST treatments during molting period and increased from the 5th week compared to control. Egg production decreased at 1 week in molt treatment and stopped at 2 week in FW, 3 week in LO, and 4 week in ST treatments. The birds started to lay egg at 4 week in FW and at 5 week in LO and ST treatments. Egg production was recovered until 50% at 6 week in FW and was recovered as 66.1 and 71.6% at 8 week in LO and ST treatment, respectively. Egg weights were similar among all treatments. Eggshell thicknesses were 0.41, 0.47, 0.46 and 0.46 mm at CO, FW, LO and ST treatment, respectively, but the higher in molt treatments than control (P<0.05). Eggshell breaking strength was 3.83 and 3.81 kg/$cm^2$ in FW and LO treatment, respectively, and high compared to control. However, eggshell breaking strengths were 3.54 and 3.78 kg/$cm^2$ and were not statistically different. Haugh units were 75.6, 81.1, 80.6 and 79.9 in 4 treatments and high in molt treatment. Finally, dietary low-protein and low-energy may induce molt as few effect on performance of layers.

Methanotrophic communities from freshwater wetland (FW), seawater wetland (SW), forest (FS), and landfill soils (LS) around Seoul of South Korea, were characterized using comparative sequence analyses of clone libraries. Proportions of Methylocaldum, Methlyococcus and Methylosinus were found to be greater in FW and SW, while Methylobacter and Methylomonas were more notable in FS and Methylocystis and Methylomicrobium more prominent in LS. Lag periods behind the initiation of methane oxidation significantly varied amongst the soils. Methane oxidation rates were greater in $FW{\geq}LS{\geq}SW>FS$ (p<0.05). Thus, the environmental setting is a significant factor influencing the communities and capabilities of methanotrophs.

Recently more dairy farmers are interested in the utilization of stretch film for wrapping silage material. Most of stretch film are imported from abroad and one domestic product was developed, but its quality has not yet been tested. Therefore this study was executed to offer basic data on this material to the farmers. Measured items were tensile load, extension ratio, and tear propagation strength of stretch films. Comparisons were made among the white color of domestic product(Kw), and white(Fw), black (Fb) and green color(Fg) of foreign products. The result were summarized as follows: 1. Tensile loads of lengthwise direction in stretch films were 557.4, 377.4, 282.6 and 398.4kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ in Kw, Fw, Fb and Fg, respectively, and tensile loads of width direction were 415.9, 418.1, 360.2 and 433.0kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ in Kw, Fw, Fb and Fg, respectively. 2. Extension ratios of lengthwise direction were 650, 462.5, 512.5% and 537.5% in Kw, Fw, Fb and Fg, respectively, Extension ratios of width direction were 930, 962.5, 950 and 1,000% in Kw, Fw, Fb and Fg, respectively. 3 Tear propagation strength of lengthwise direction 187.9, 148.9, 157.3 and 142.8kgf/cm, and tear propagation strength of width direction were 141.4, 129.8, 140.4 and 106.6kgf/cm in Kw, Fw, Fb and Fg, respectively. 4. In the light transmittance, there was no difference between white and green color stretch film, but it was very low in black one. Therefore, it is thought that research on quality of roll bale silage treated with each stretch film would be needed.
