Objective: This experiment was to determine proper physical traits in the diet for goats by investigating the effects of physically effective neutral detergent fiber (peNDF) content on dry matter intake (DMI), digestibility, and chewing activity in black goats fed with total mixed ration (TMR). Methods: Six growing wethers of Korean native black goats (Capra hircus coreanae) aged 8 months and weighing between 26.9 kg and 27.1 kg ($27.03{\pm}5.05kg$) were used in this experiment. Three diets of varying peNDF content were obtained by original TMR (T1), 12,000 rpm grinding (T2), and 15,500 rpm grinding (T3) of the same TMR diet. The $peNDF_{1.18}$ content of the experimental diets was 23.85%, 21.71%, and 16.22% for T1, T2, and T3, respectively. Results: Average daily gain (ADG) was higher in T2 group compared to those of the control and T3 groups, but ADG and DMI were not affected by the dietary particle size and peNDF content. Also, there was no difference between apparent nutrient digestibility of dry matter, crude fiber, ether extract, neutral detergent fiber, and acid detergent fiber. Although there was no significant difference, rumination and total chewing time were associated with decreased peNDF content. Conclusion: The feeding of peNDF-based TMR showed no impact on apparent nutrient digestibility and nitrogen balance. Further studies are required with a wider range of dietary peNDF level and particle size to better identify the effect of dietary peNDF and particle size on chewing activity and performance in goats.

습식분쇄의 최적조건을 얻고자 부형제 종류, 농도, 습식 분쇄시 rotor speed, bead size, feed rate, 분쇄회수를 달리하여 분쇄한 결과, 부형제로는 gum arabic을 사용하여 5%의 농도로 첨가할 때 가장 좋은 분쇄효과를 나타내었다. Rotor speed를 달리하여 습식분쇄한 결과, rotor speed가 증가할수록 좋은 결과를 나타내어 4,000 rpm에서 가장 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 원료와 직접 부딪혀 분쇄를 하게 되는 bead는 0.4 mm의 크기를 사용하였을 때 가장 작은 사이즈로 분쇄되는 것으로 나타났다. 분쇄가 이루어지는 chamber내에 원료를 공급하는 비율에 따른 결과에서는 40 L/h 의 속도로 공급했을 때 가장 작은 입도분포를 보였다. 분쇄회수에 따른 영향은 횟수에 따라서는 8회 이상으로 분쇄하였을때 0.6 $\mu$m이하의 입도분포가 90% 이상으로 나타나 10회를 분쇄하였을때 가장 좋은 효과를 나타내었다. 연속운전과 비연속운전의 비교에서는 연속운전이 더 효율적이었으며 부형제 종류에 따른 영향은 gum arabic을 첨가하여 분쇄하였을때 가장 우수한 결과를 나타내었다. 따라서 적절한 농도와 종류의 부형제 사용과 rotor speed, bead size, feed rate, 용매와의 혼합비의 최적공정을 수립한 습식 분쇄기술로 초미세액상칼슘의 제조가 가능하였고, 습식분쇄기술을 식품가공기술로 활용할 수 있는 가능성을 확보하였다.

본 시험은 자가제조 TMR 농가의 TMR 배합기 운용실태와 국내에서 생산 이용되고 있는 TMR을 대상으로 TMR 배합소에서 생산되는 20개 유통 TMR과 농가에서 직접 제조하여 이용하는 20개 자가 TMR의 입자도를 Penn State Particle Size Separator를 이용하여 측정하여 TMR 입자도의 분포를 측정한 결과, 자가 TMR 배합기를 이용하여 TMR을 제조하는 농가의 1일 총 배합에 소요되는 시간은 48.6${\pm}$28.0분으로 나타났으며, 자가 TMR 농가의 보유 배합기 형태는 2오거가 55.5%로 가장 많았고, 여름철 및 다른 계절에 1일 2회 배합하는 농가가 44.4 및 22.2%였다. 자가 TMR 농가의 배합기 가동시간별 상위 체에 남아 있는 비율이 21.5~25.6%, 중간 체에 남아 있는 비율이 16.0~25.8% 그리고 바닥 체에 남은 사료의 비율은 52.8~61.4%로 많은 차이가 있었다. 자가 및 유통 TMR의 입자 길이가 19mm 이상인 사료의 비율이 각각 24.9${\pm}$1.4 및 26.2${\pm}$1.7%, 입자 길이가 8~19mm미만인 사료의 비율이 각각 22.8${\pm}$1.0 및 12.8${\pm}$1.2% 그리고 입자 길이가 8mm 미만인 사료의 비율이 52.3${\pm}$1.7 및 61.0${\pm}$1.5%였다. 이는 자가 TMR과 유통 TMR 모두에서 8~19mm미만 범위에 있는 입자는 Penn State Separator에서 추천하는 비율보다 각각 82.6%, 100%가 낮은 것으로 나타났는데, 이는 전체적으로 국내에서 생산 이용되고 있는 TMR의 입자도가 긴 것과 짧은 것의 적절한 조화가 이루어지지 않고 있음을 알 수 있다. 따라서 TMR을 급여하고 있는 농가에서 TMR중 입자도가 적정한지를 평가하기 위한 가장 기본적인 일은 우군의 반추행동을 모니터링하는 일이다. 즉, 전체 우군중 사료를 섭취하고 있는 소를 제외하고 휴식중에 있는 소들중 반추를 하고 있는 소가 40%가 안된다면 전체적으로 입자도가 너무 적거나 조사료의 비율이 너무 낮지 않은지 검토하여 배합시간을 조정하거나 배합비를 재조정해 주어야 할 것이다.

The effects of starting composition, sintering temperature and porosity on the mechanical properties of hydroxyapatite ceramics were investigated. The hydroxyapatite powder were prepared by precipitation method using Ca(NO3)2.4H2O and (NH4)2.HPO4. The obtained powders were Ca-deficient hydroxyapatites and as the Ca/P mole ration in the initial solution was increased, the particle size of the precipitates was decreased, and the decomposition of hydroxyapatite to $\beta$-TCP was controlled. The porosity, as well as Ca/P mole ratio in starting composition and sintering temperature, plays major role in the mechanical properties of dense hydroxyapatite ceramics.

The extraction of panaxynol and panaxydol from Korean ginseng was found to be op-timal at 55$^{\circ}C$ for the shaking method, 80$^{\circ}C$ for the soxhlet method, and 65$^{\circ}C$ for the supercritical extraction method. The amount of extracted panaxydol and panaxynol, and their increased over a period of 12 h with the shaking method. The soxhlet method produced an extract with the largest panaxydol/panaxynol ratio. A reduced particle size enhanced extraction, however the ration of panaxydol/panaxynol decreased. Swelling in water was found to be detrimental for the extrac-tion of panaxydol and panaxynol.

An experiment was conducted to determine the effects of diets containing coarse-texture rice straw and small particle size alfalfa pellets as a part of total mixed ration (TMR) on milk productivity and chewing activity in lactating dairy cows. Sixteen multiparous Holstein dairy cows ($670{\pm}21kg$ body weight) in mid-lactation ($194.1{\pm}13.6$ days in milk) were randomly assigned to TMR containing 50% of timothy hay (TH) or TMR containing 20% of rice straw and 30% of alfalfa pellet mixture (RSAP). Geometric mean lengths of TH and RSAP were found to be 5.8 and 3.6, respectively. Dry matter intake, milk yield and milk composition were measured. Moreover, eating and ruminating times were recorded continuously using infrared digital camcorders. Milk yield and milk composition were not detected to have significant differences between TH and RSAP. Dry matter intake (DMI) did not significantly differ for cows fed with TH or RSAP. Although particle size of TH was larger than RSAP, eating, ruminating and total chewing time (min/d or min/kg of DMI) on TH and RSAP were similar. Taken together, our results suggest that using a proper amount of coarse-texture rice straw with high value nutritive alfalfa pellets may stimulate chewing activity in dairy cows without decreasing milk yield and composition even though the quantity of rice straw was 40% of TH.

The influence of fiber content of hay (low-fiber 47% NDF and high-fiber 62% NDF of DM) and concentrate level (high 50% and low 20% of ration DM) on chewing activity, passage rate and nutrient digestibility were tested on four restrict-fed (11.1 to 13.7 kg DM/d) Holstein cows in late lactation. Aspects of ruminal fermentation and digesta particle size distribution were also investigated on two ruminally cannulated (100 mm i.d.) cows of the same group of animals. All digestion parameters studied were more affected by the fiber content of the hay and its ratio to non structural carbohydrates than by the concentrate level. Giving a diet of high-fiber (62% NDF) hay and low concentrate level (20%) increased chewing activity but decreased solid passage rate and total digestibility of nutrients due to a limited availability of fermentable OM in the late cut fiber rich hay. A supplementation of high-fiber hay with 50% concentrate in the diet seems to improve the ruminal digestion of cell contents, whilst a depression of the ruminal fiber digestibility was not completely avoided. Giving a diet of low-fiber (47% NDF) hay and high concentrate level (50%) reduced markedly the chewing and rumination activity, affected negatively the rumen conditions and, consequently, the ruminal digestion of fiber. A reduction of the concentrate level from 50 to 20% in the diet of low-fiber hay improved the rumen conditions as reflected by an increase of the ruminal solid passage rate and of fiber digestibility and in a decrease of the concentration of large particles and of the mean particle size of the rumen digesta and of the faeces. Generally, it can be summarised that, (i) concentrate supplementation is not a strategy to overcome limitations of low quality (fiber-rich) hay, and (ii) increase of the roughage quality is an effective strategy in ruminant nutrition, especially when concentrate availability for ruminants is limited.

Roughage feeds were produced from Hyun-aspen (Populus alba $\times$ p. glandulosa) by steaming-defibration and steaming-explosion. The objectives of this work were to find proper conditions for the treatment of Hyun-aspen by analyzing the compositional change and digestibility and to investigate the change of physical properties of exploded woods. The results of this work were as follows; 1. The method of steaming-de fibration gave the best producing rate of feedstuffs when the chips were steamed (9kg/$cm^2$ under the pressure) for 10 minutes. The yield and the digestibility of feedstuffs were 84.2% and 38.1%, respectively. It is the merit of this method that feedstuffs manufactured by this method was uniformity in particle size, and facilities of fiberboard factory could be used directly, 2. For defibration of the chip by explosion, the proper condition was steamed under the pressure (20kg/$cm^2$) for 4 minutes. The yield and the digestibility of feedstuffs were 93.4% and 68.1%, respectively. The feedstuffs produced under these conditions had higher nutritional quality than rice straw and this method was considered as the best for making feedstuffs from Hyun-aspen chip. But it is defect that exploded feedstuffs was ununiformity in particle size and had unique odor. The physical properties of the feedstuffs were investigated by a light microscope and a TEM. The feedstuffs produced under the low pressure (20 kg/$cm^2$) still maintained the structure of fibers. However, the feedstuffs produced under the high pressure (28 kg/$cm^2$) resulted in higher de fib ration than these prepared under the low pressure. The highly defibrated feedstuffs recombined with solublized lignin. The crystallinity of feedstuffs was increased by 10% and micelle width increased double after treatment.

A preparation of $Ni_xMn_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ nanoparticles produced via the reduction of Nickel nitrate hexahydrate, Manganese (II) nitrate hexahydrate and Iron nitrate nonahydrate with hydrazine in Igepal CO-520/cyclohexane reverse micelle solutions was investigated. Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM), X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Vibration Sample Magnetometer (VSM) analyses showed that the resultant nanoparticles increased the molar ration of water to Igepal CO-520 as the concentrations of Nickel nitrate hexahyrate, Manganese (II) nitrate hexahydrate and Iron nitrate nonahydrate increased. The average size of the synthesized particles calcined at $600^{\circ}C$ for 2hrs was in the range of 20 nm to 30 nm, and the particle distribution was broadened. The phase of the synthesized particles was crystalline, and the magnetic behavior of the synthesized particles was superparamagnetism. The effect of the synthesis parameters of the molar ratio of water to surfactant and the calcination temperature was discussed.
