This study was designed to investigate the health promotion effect of fermented milk and historical story of Korean dairy products from the ancient period to present. Although the origin of fermented milk is Europe, the recede of fermented milk was founded in far-east and middle east areas at BC 4C. After the spread of fermented milk to Korea and Japan. The consumption of fermented milk in Korea was dramatically increased to 14.2 kg per person in 1997. Health promotion effect of fermented milk can be devided to 5 major effected improvements of intestinal microflora, anticancer, cholesterol assimilation anti-pathogenic activity. Fermented milk reduced the level of ${\beta}$-glucornidase and nitroreductase to 50% and it provides anticancer activity by cell wall an polysaccharides. Fermented milk has cholesterol assimilation activity ca. 54${\sim}$40% (B. longum, Str. thermophillus). Anti-pathogenic activity of fermented milk was significant. It appeared that Sal. ser. typhimurium was more susceptible than 5. coli 0157 at low pH fermented milk. Viable cells of E. coli 0157 were not dramatically decreased in most of fermented milks tested, but in general, Sal. ser. typhimurium was drastically decreased in most of the fermented milks.

Present work was undertaken to investigate the origin of milled wood lignin(MWL) in the wood cell wall using immunocytochemical techniques, which can provide the information on the localization of specific antigens(MWL in the present study) to be examined. Spruce MWL dissolved in DMSO and emulsified with Freund adjuvant was injected directly into the mouse spleen. The animals were boostered at two-week intervals after the initial immunization. Blood samples were purified in standard procedures. The characteristics of antibodies against MWL were tested by indirect ELISA. Visualization of MWL was carried out using conventional indirect immunogold-labelling methods on the ultrathin sections of spruce wood. Immuno-TEM observations showed that the immunogold probes were selectively attached to secondary cell walls of spruce wood. The most intense labelling was frequently observed in the S2 layer. In contrast, gold labelling in the lignin-rich regions, such as middle lamella and cell corner was not found. The immuno-TEM provides an indication that spruce MWL originates from the S2 layer.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes of hardness and microstructure of Dongchimi cooked with various sources of sugar(xylitol, xylose, sugar, pear juice). It was fermented at $10^{\circ}C$ for 60 days. The changes of pH in Dongchimi used different kinds of sugar decreased in all samples during the fermentation period, and then showed a slow decrease after 12 days of fermentation. The total acidity of Dongchimi using xylitol arrived slowly at the best tasting condition($0.3\sim0.4$ point) compared with other conditions. The changes of salt content were showed high as compared with other test conditions in 0 day, the day of fermentation. At the early stage of fermentation, the changes of turbidity of Dongchimi using sugar, pear juice were showed high as compared with those of Dongchimi using xylitol, xylose for $5\sim15$ days of fermentation. The maximum cutting force of Chinese radish Dongchimi showed the highest value among al at the 25 th day of ripening and then decreased gradually. The maximum cutting force of Dongchimi using sugar showed the lowest. The calcium and magnesium contents of Dongchimi juice and Chinese radish Dongchimi juice using xylitol were observed high at the early stage of fermentation and showed the highest value during the fermentation period. The microstructure showed disintegration appearance of middle lamella and cell wall during the fermentation period.

In recent, the collapses of cut-slope is gradually increased due to the heavy rains accompanied by typhoon. Specially, many cut-slope failures and landslides was happened to Goheung, Yeosu, Suncheon region, Jeonranamdo in the middle of September 2007. The slope of investigation is width 20 m, height 22 m, and the circular failure was occurred. The parent rocks of the slope are pyroclastic rock, namely andesite, andesitic tuff et al. and the weathering grade is completely weathered to residual soils owing to rapid weathering process and has the existence of fault zone and mafic dyke. Also, lots of extension cracks are presented and the hydrologic condition is very deteriorated. As a result of the limit equilibrium analysis, the safety factor is 1.09(in dry season) and 0.64(in wet season). For the stabilization of the cut-slope, we decided to use the retaining wall, anchors and drainage apparatus.

The method of reinforced earth walls has grown remarkably and the frequency of utilization has been increased on a national scale thereafter introduced in the middle 1980s in Korea. Furthermore the construction case of the extensive Geosynthetic-Reinforced Segmental Retaining Walls had been increased. Currently, the design criterion of FHWA and NCMA mainly used in Korea suggest determining the horizontal distance of the upper/lower retaining wall based on the study results of the internal stability and the external stability of Segmental Retaining Walls but in many cases are not suitable for the actual situation in Korea. Therefore, in this study reviewed the design criterion of Geosynthetic-Reinforced Segmental Retaining Walls, performed the internal and external stability in Paju, Gyeonggi-do based on the design criterion of FHWA and NCMA, suggested the modified design criterion of FHWA with analyzing the results, and performed the stability analysis for the internal and external stability and the compound failure. Moreover for the confirmation of the modified FHWA design standard, the suggestion and the analysis of the numerical analysis approaching method using shear strength reduction technique were performed and the design cases utilized the modified FHWA design standard based on the study analysis were introduced.

The effects of reinforcement on the horizontal and vertical deformations of geosynthetic reinforced retaining walls are investigated under a well-known seismic load (San Jose earthquake, 1955). Retaining walls are designed with internal and external stability (with appropriate factor of safety) and deformation is chosen as the main parameter for describing the wall behavior under seismic load. Retaining walls with various heights (6, 8, 10, 12 and 14 meter) are optimized for geosynthetics arrangement, and modeled with a finite element method. The stress-strain behavior of the walls under a well-known loading type, which has been used by many previous researchers, is investigated. A comparison is made between the reinforced and non-reinforced systems to evaluate the effect of reinforcement on decreasing the deformation of the retaining walls. The results show that the reinforcement system significantly controls the deformation of the top and middle of the retaining walls, which are the critical points under dynamic loading. It is shown that the optimized reinforcement system in retaining walls under the studied seismic loading could decrease horizontal and vertical deformation up to 90% and 40% respectively.

Successful middle ear surgery requires the availability of al safe, effective bonding material. Side effect caused by synthetic materials have led to the use of biologic adhesive. However, they carry the risk of transmission of infectious diseases if they are prepared from pooled human blood. The adhesive strength of ammonium sulfate fibrin adhesive produce an adhesive strength that is half that of the homologous commercial product. It is, however, good enough for use in several otolaryngological operations, tympanoplasty, facial nerve repair, reconstruction of ossicles, reconstruction of posterior wall of ear canal and obliteration of frontal sinus and mastoid antrum using bone dust.

Children's museum has roles of the characterized place for children as well as the museum for education. Therefore, specific color selection especially for children is one of the most important points to be considered. This study is the short investigation on various interior color systems of children's museums in Korea. In case of Children's Museum in National Museum of Korea, each exhibition area is apparently divided by adopting colors in accord with the subject of each space. Middle color in that museum generally gives stability, and clear color and accent color give better perception and vitality Children's folk Museum has adopted Korean traditional colors, O-Bang Colors, which have indicated Korean tradition for ages. All sections in Incheon Children's Museum are spatially divided, but similar colors of ceiling, wall, and floor give boring atmosphere. Since original colors of furniture in Science section distract attraction of children, proper color selection should be required for better reaction from children. Therefore, this research is aiming for detailed investigation in color system of children's museum and the proper interior color planning of the next children's museums with their main purpose for children in the future.

Ultrastructural and cytochemical studies of the root hair cell and the trichoblast were undertaken with light and electron microscopes to clarify the type of root hair, fine structure and the activities of acid phosphatase and ATPase. The root hair was differentiated from the middle portion of the cell, and perpendicularly to the long axis of the cell. Consequently, the type of root hair comes under the panicoid type. In the trichoblast, nucleus and cytoplasm are located in the vicinity of cortex. On the contrary, after the root hair is formed, they migrate to the apical region of the root hair, and the basal region of the root hair is filled with numerous vacuoles. Cell walls of actively growing root hairs are subdivided into two layers on the basis of the arrangement of cellulose microfibrils. New cell wall of the root hair is presumptively formed from Golgi complex-derived vesicles. Activity of acid phosphatase appeared on tonoplast, plasma membrane, and nuclear envelope, whereas ATPase activity appeared on the plasma membrane, heterochromatin, and mitochondrial cristae.

A dash panel plays an important role to protect noise as well as heat. Meanwhile, it is also the most important path that transfers energy to the interior cavity, so that some of noises are transferred via air and its structural vibration becomes a major issue. From the viewpoint of NVH performance, simplified structures analogues to the dash wall are dealt with. Stiffeners, damping sheets and sound packages attached to a flat panel are taken into account as design variables. Structural radiation characteristics(thus, structure borne) such as radiation efficiency and radiation power are mainly discussed. For the case when an excitation is applied on a frame that surrounds the panel, it is shown that the radiation efficiency increases by attaching a stiffener to the panel, which is similarly found from the case when a panel is directly excited. It seems more effective to attach damping sheets along the boundary area of the panel rather than its middle area. The radiation efficiency of sound packages may make a dominant contribution to transmission loss as well as sound radiation. Experimental work was carried out to verify the results based on the simulation study.
