The current study investigated the effects of the most suitable modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) on the physicochemical, microbiological, and sensory properties of fermented dry sausages during 45 days of refrigeration (4℃) storage period. Treatments were vacuum-packed (control), 25% CO₂/75% N₂ (MAP1), 50% CO₂/50% N₂ (MAP2), 70% CO₂/30% N₂ (MAP3), and 100% CO₂ (MAP4). All MAP samples regardless of their CO₂ composition significantly (p<0.05) decreased in pH, a_w, total plate count, and lactic acid bacteria count values as compared to the vacuum-package during storage. The Enterobacteriaceae count in all MAP packaging was significantly (p<0.05) lower than the vacuum-packed samples and counts in MAP3 and MAP4 samples were markedly (p<0.05) lower than all other treatments in prolonged storage of 15 and 45 days. Based on the thiobarbituric acid reactive substance content at day 15 and 30 storage time, treatments are ranked as follows: Vacuum-packed>MAP1>MAP2>MAP3>MAP4. The a^* of MAP4 was higher than all other treatments. In the final storage days, no variation was exhibited (p>0.05) among treatments in lactic acid aroma and sourness, and MAP2 samples had the lowest (p<0.05) overall acceptability. The use of MAPs with an increase in the CO₂ from MAP1 to MAP4 samples can help in better microbial inhibition than vacuum package, and 70% CO₂/30% N₂ (MAP3) and 100% CO₂ (MAP4) were effective to maintain several quality parameters (a_w, pH, microbial inhibition, stability against lipid oxidation, and instrumental color traits) and extend the shelf life of dry fermented sausage.

Changes in quality characteristics of boiled-dried anchovy during storage under different packaging conditions for 6 months were studied. For the packaging trials, kraft paper (KP), kraft paper laminated with 0.03 mm polyethylene film (KP/PE) and 0.1 mm polyethylene film with nitrogen gas substitution ($N_2$ gas) were employed. In case of KP, the reaction of thiobarbituric acid, browning rate of lipid oxidation and Hunter color values of L, a and b were remarkably higher than those packaged in KP/PE or $N_2$ gas. Judging from organoleptic evaluation boiled-dried anchovy could be preserved in acceptable condition for 6 months at $5^{\circ}C$in all packaging cases and, at room temperature, 3 months in KP and 4 months in KP/PE or $N_2$ gas. From the standpoint of quality stability by packaging methods, it was concluded as good in sequence as $N_2$, gas, KP/PE and KP. The results suggest that the quality of boiled-dried anchovy be well preserved by packaging with inert gas ($N_2$ gas) or impermeable material to vapors and oxygens.

[ $Si_3N_4$ ] composites have been extensively studied for engineering ceramics, because it has excellent room and high temperature strength, wear resistance properties, good resistance to oxidation, and good thermal and chemical stability. In the present work, carbon short fiber reinforced $Si_3N_4$ ceramics were fabricated by hot press method in $N_2$ atmosphere at $1800^{\circ}C$ using $Al_2O_3\;and\;Y_2O_3$ as sintering additives. Content of carbon short fiber was $0\%,\;0.1\%\;and\;0.3\%$. The composites were evaluated in terms of density, flexural strength and elastic modulus through the 3-point bending test at room temperature. Also, The wear behavior was determined by the pin on disk wear tester using silicon nitride ball. Experimental density and flexural strength decreased with increasing content of carbon fiber. But specific modulus increased with increasing content of carbon fiber. In addition, friction coefficient and specific wear loss decreased with increasing content of carbon short fiber by reason of interfacial defects between matrix and fiber.

The thermal barrier coating must withstand erosion when subjected to flowing gas and should also maintain good stability and mechanical properties while it must also protect the turbine component from high temperature, hot corrosion, creep, and oxidation during operation. In this study we investigated the influence of subsurface layer, $Al_2O_3$ or NiCrCoAIY bond coat layer, on the indentation damage behavior of YSZ thermal barrier coating layers deposited by electron beam physical vapor deposition (EB-PVD). The bond coat is deposited using different process such as air plasma spray (APS) or spray of high velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) and the thickness is varied. Hertzian indentation technique is used to induce micro damages on the coated layer. The stress-strain behaviors are characterized by results of the indentation tests.

Changes in pigments of freeze dried grasshopper in refrigerator were determined to asses the storage stability. In storage at $5^{\circ}C$, chlorophyll contents were drastically decreased but pheopytins were increased. The degradation of chlorophylls get under controlled with vacuum package. The pigments extracted from 98 days stored samples were fractionated by silicic acid column and obtained 3 portions (3a, 3b and 3d). These portions were compared Rf values (0.75, 0.56, 0.50, respectively) and absorption spectra (408, 666nm; 419, 651nm; 433, 655nm, respectively) with that of standard and were identifed pheophytin a and b and 'changed' chlorophyll a. Especially, pheophytins a and b were great strength accelerated to lipid oxidation.

The development of an enzymatic biosensor for dopamine determination based on multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and peroxidase obtained from the crude extract of burley tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) was proposed. Peroxidase catalyzes the oxidation of dopamine to dopamine quinone. The influence on the response of analytical parameters of biosensors such as enzyme concentration, dopamine concentration, pH, and phosphate buffer solution concentration were investigated. The analytical parameters obtained, including sensitivity, linearity, and stability, were investigated. The proposed method for dopamine determination presented good selectivity even in the presence of uric acid and ascorbic acid. The sensor presented a higher response for dopamine in 0.010 M phosphate buffer at pH 6.50, with an applied potential of -0.15 V. The detection limit of the electrode was 2.7×10⁻⁶ M (S/N = 3) and the relative standard deviation of the measurements, which were repeated 10 times using 5.0×10⁻² M dopamine, was 1.3%.

Milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) is a lipid carrier in mammals including humans that consists mainly of polar lipids, like phospholipids and glycolipids. In this study, a process to enrich polar lipids in commercial butter and whey powder, including polar lipids of MFGM, was developed. WPC (whey protein concentrate) 60 was selected as the most suitable raw material based on the yield, phospholipid, protein, and lactose content of the polar lipid fraction obtained by ethanol extraction of two WPC (WPC60 and WPC70) and two buttermilk (A and B). After fractionation under optimum conditions, the polar-lipid enriched fraction from WPC60 contained 38.56% phospholipids. The content of glycolipids, cerebroside, lactosylceramide, ganglioside GM3, ganglioside GD3, was 0.97%, 0.55%, 0.09%, and 0.14%, respectively. Rancimat results showed that the oxidation stability of fish oil increased with an increase in the polar-lipid fraction by more than 30 times. In addition, the secretion of IL-6 and TNF-α decreased in a concentration-dependent manner after treatment of RAW 264.7 cells with 0.1 to 100 ppm of the polar lipid fraction. In this study, polar lipid concentrates with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity, were prepared from milk processing by-products. The MFGM polar lipid concentrates made from by-products are not only additives for infants, but are also likely to be used as antioxidants in cooking oils and as active ingredients for functional foods.

Electrochemical, in situ electrochemical scanning tunneling microscope (EC-STM), and attenuated total reflectance-FTIR (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopic methods were employed to investigate the preparation of atomically flat Si(111)-H surface in ammonium fluoride solutions. Electrochemical properties of atomically flat Si(111)-H surface were characterized by anodic oxidation and cathodic hydrogen evolution with the open circuit potential (OCP) of ca. -0.4 V in concentrated ammonium fluoride solutions. As soon as the natural oxide-covered Si(111) electrode was immersed in fluoride solutions, OCP quickly shifted to near -1 V, which was more negative than the flat band potential of silicon surface, indicating that the surface silicon oxide had to be dissolved into the solution. OCP changed to become less negative as the oxide layer was being removed from the silicon surface. In situ EC-STM data showed that the surface was changed from the initial oxidecovered silicon to atomically rough hydrogen-terminated surface and then to atomically flat hydrogenterminated surface as the OCP moved toward less negative potentials. The atomically flat Si(111)-H structure was confirmed by in situ EC-STM and ATR-FTIR data. The dependence of atomically flat Si(111)-H terrace on mis-cut angle was investigated by STM, and the results agreed with those anticipated by calculation. Further, the stability of Si(111)-H was checked by STM in ambient laboratory conditions.

An animal fat is an attractive biodiesel energy source for its high stability against oxidation and low incomplete combustion ratio due to the high heating value and cetane value. However, it requires a refinery process because of the high content of saturated acid and impurity which increas the boiling point. In this study, the optimum biodiesel synthetic process of lard is suggested. Indeed, we demonstrate new biodiesel production processes to alter conventional process of heating and mixing by applying ultrasonic energy. While the optimum reaction temperature and mole ratio of methanol and lard, when using conventional mixing and heating process, were $55^{\circ}C$ and 12, respectively, the reaction time were reduced to 30 minutes by applying ultrasonic irradiation power of 500 W. The new process applying ultrasonic irradiation yielded synthetic biodiesel properties as followings: 3.34 cP of the viscosity, 37.0 MJ/kg of the caloric value and below 0.25 mgKOH/g of the acidic value, which satisfy biodiesel quality criteria.
