A 10-week feeding experiment was conducted to determine the influence of several minerals from dietary mineral premix on growth and body composition in juvenile Korean rockfish. Three replicate groups of fish Initially averaging 4.2 g were fed one of the ten experimental diets. Korean rockfish muscle and casein as protein sources were used in the basal diet, and deleted one of each mineral (P, Ca, Zn, Mg, Fe, K, Mn, Se or all) in the control mineral premix, Weight gain, feed efficiency and nutrient retention in fish fed the diet not containing mineral premix were significantly lower than those in fish fed other diets (P<0.01). Weight gain in fish fed the diets deleted each mineral (P, Ca, Zn, Hg, Fe, K, Mn or Se) was lower than that of control diet (P<0.01), Feed efficiency and protein retention in fish fed the diets deleted each of P, Ca, Zn or Mn were lower than those ot control diet (P<0.01). Daily feed intake and lipid retention were not affected by dietary mineral premixes ( P>0.01). Proximate analysis and mineral contents in the whole body, muscle, liver or bone of fish fed the diets deleted each mineral were not different to control diet ( P>0.01). The data obtained in this study indicate that each of the P, Ca, Zn, Mg, Fe, K, Mn or Se is essential for normal growth of Korean rockfish.

A total of 76 surface sediment samples, collected from the Korean west coast and the eastern Yellow Sea areas, were analyzed for their elemental composition in order to understand the geochemical characteristics of these deposits. The analyzed elements included 9 major elements (Al, Fe, Na, K, Mg, Ca, Ti, P, Mn), 8 minor elements (Sr, Ba, V, Cr, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn), organic carbon and calcium carbonate. Contents of most analyzed elements, excluding K and Ba, were generally low compared to those of average crust. Contents of most elements, except K and Ca, also correlated with sediment grain size, though the degree of relationship varied widely from one element to another. For fine-grained sediments, a distinction could be made between those in the central Yellow Sea and those in the Keum Estuary based on their characteristic elemental composition: the former were rich in Fe, Na, K, Mg, Ca and V, and the latter in Mn, Co and Ni. The element/aluminium ratios, on the other hand, showed that the central Yellow Sea muds were enriched in Fe, Mg, V, Ni, Cu and Zn and depleted in K, Mn, Ba and Sr relative to the mud located near the Korean Peninsula. Based on the analysis of these results, as well as of the influences of particular mineral phases or pollution effects, we could suggest geochemical criteria which can be used in distinguishing muds from the two different sources, the Keum River and the Yellow River: the former by the higher Mn content and the latter by the higher Mg and V contents, relative to each other.

Pediococcus pentosaceus SA131 was isolated from jeotgal, is the bacteriocin producer against bovine mastitis pathogens, Streptococcus uberis E290, Enterococcus gallinarum E362, and Staphylococcus epidermidis ATCC 12228. The medium composition for pediocin SA131 production by P. pentosaceus SA131 was optimized using response surface methodology. Component of medium was studied as carbon source (glucose, fructose, lactose, glycerol, sucrose, maltose, and mannitol), nitrogen source (beef extract, yeast extract, peptone, malt extract, and tryptone), mineral and surfactant ($MgSO_4$, $KH_2PO_4$, $(NH_4)_2SO_4$, $MnSO_4$, NaCl, sodium acetate, and Tween 80). Through one factor-at-a-time experiment, glucose, fructose, yeast extract, malt extract, NaCl, $MgSO_4$, and Tween 80 were determined as the good ingredient. The effects of major factors for pediocin SA131 production were investigated by two-level fractional factorial designs (FFD). By a $2^4$ FFD, fructose, yeast extract, and $MnSO_4$ were found to be the important factors for the bacteriocin production. Subsequently, a $2^3$ central composite design (CCD) was adopted to derive a statistical model for optimizing the composition of the fermentation medium. The estimated optimum composition for the production of pediocin SA131 by P. pentosaceus SA131 was as follows; 0.13% fructose, 1% glucose, 1.8% yeast extract, 2.58% $MnSO_4$, 0.2% NaCl, and 0.2% Tween 80. The pediocin production under optimized medium was increased to 1,000 AU/mL, compared to the 400 AU/mL in MRS medium.

In this paper, we designed and fabricated the EM wave absorber consists of Sendust and Mn-Zn ferrite for suppressing EM wave noise from PCB in ISM(Industrial, Scientific and Medical) band of 2.4 GHz. We fabricated several samples in different ratios of Sendust to Mn-Zn ferrite with CPE(Chlorinated Ploy-ethylene) as binder and confirmed that optimum composition ratio of absorbing materials was Sendust. Mn-Zn ferrite : CPE=70:5:20 wt.%. The absorbing abilities were simulated according to different thickness of EM wave absorber as the function of material constants calculated by measured data. Measured absorption ability was analyzed and compared with simulated result. The simulated result agree well with the measured ones. As a result, the developed EM wave absorber with thickness of 0.85 mm has absorption ability of 5.4 dB at 2.4 GHz and over 3 dB in frequency rage of 1.4$\sim$4.1 GHz.

The crystal structure of arc melted $ZrV_{x}Mn_{1-x}Ni_{1.0},\;ZrV_{x}Mn_{0.8-x}Ni_{1.2},\;ZrV_{x}Mn_{0.6-x}Ni_{1.4}$ alloys which are known to have AB2 type Laves structure was investigated. They had mixed phases of C14 and C15. The radius ratio ($r_{A}/r_{B}$) of atoms in A site to that of B site was found to be an important parameter in explaining the omposition dependence of the crystal structure The C15 structure showed a linear increase with the ratio in as-cast conditions. However, the annealed alloys revealed a definite ratio at which the stability of both phases are divided distinctly. The composition of the alloys could be closely controlled by maintaining the argon pressure in the chamber over 1 arm during arc melting. In contrast, the alloy ingot melted in VIM showed a significant loss of hln.

The electromagnetic properties and thermal behavior of Mn-Zn ferrite cores used for the blocking filter in he Power Line Communication(PLC) application were investigated as the function of additives. The highest density and permeability of 4.98 g/㎤) and 8,221 respectively were obtained to the specimen with composition of MnO 24 mol%, ZnO 25 mol% and Fe$_2$O$_3$ 51 mol% added MnO$_3$ 400 ppm, SiO$_2$ 100 ppm and CaO 200 ppm since the uniform grains were organized and the microstructures were compacted through reduction of pores. The permeability was increased up to 13,904 as temperature of specimen increased to 11$0^{\circ}C$, however, it was decreased precipitously under 100 over 11$0^{\circ}C$. The exothermic behavior was observed in the frequency range from 1 kHz to 1 MHz that the maximum temperature of specimens became 102$^{\circ}C$ at 1 MHz. In the consequence, the Mn-Zn ferrite core developed by this research will maintain the stable electromagnetic properties since the temperature of ferrite core rose to 93$^{\circ}C$ in the range of 10 kHz to 450 kHz bandwidth qualified for PLC.

The properties of electrical resistance of Mn-Co-Ni-Fe oxide-based therrnistor with various Fe contents in sintering process at 1200 to 1400℃ for 4 hours in air atmosphere for fabricating therrnistor materials were investigated. The results were as follows: all samples showed single cubic spinel crystal structures in all region. The electrical conductivinity is the highlest thermistor sintered at 1300℃ for 4 hours. In general when the Fe content is increased except F-2, the resistivity increases and relatively the conductivity decreases. Particularly F-2 composition exhibited the highlest electrical conductivity(1.4x $10^-3$$Ω$cm) and relatively low B constant(2906K)

With varying rapid thermal annealing (RTA) temperature, luminescence properties of $Zn_{0.75}Mg_{0.25}S:Mn$ thin film deposited by RF-magnetron sputtering technique were investigated. In this study, $Zn_{0.75}Mg_{0.25}S:Mn$ thin film phosphor showed more red emission than those of the previous studies when annealed around 600 or $650^{\circ}C$. Although all samples were deposited from identical source composition, a main peak wavelength of photoluminescence spectra of $Zn_{0.75}Mg_{0.25}S:Mn$ shifted toward shorter wavelengths depending upon increase of RTA temperature. The same dependence of wavelength on RTA temperature was also observed in cathodoluminescence as well as electroluminescence measurements. It was revealed that the change of the luminescence properties were originated from structural changes in $Zn_{0.75}Mg_{0.25}S:Mn$ thin film phosphor from cubic to hexagonal phases analyze using conventional X-ray pole figure mapping. The phase transition would be the origin of luminescence property changes with respect to RTA temperature.
