The void content of carbon fiber reinforced composite laminates was determined by the ultrasonic nondestructive technique. The ultrasonic immersion, through-transmission method developed stresses the utilization of spectral analysis and frequency dependence of the attenuation due to porosity. The measured attenuation shows approximately linear behavior over the frequency range investigated. The linear relationship between the void content and the attenuation slop (d $\alpha$/df) is found to hold, but the constant of proportionality is quite different for samples with different pore morphology. The void volume fraction determined by the attenuation slope agreed very well with that obtained by the acid digestion analysis.

This study was carried out to investigate the characteristics of Hericium erinaceus sulgidduk. The moisture content of Hericium erinaceus powder sulgidduk showed no significant difference between the added Hericium erinaceus powder and control groups. The L value decreased as the Hericium erinaceus powder concentration increased. The 'a' and 'b' color values were increased significantly when the amount of Hericium erinaceus powder was increased. The hardness, cohesiveness, chewiness and gumminess decreased with increasing Hericium erinaceus powder addition. From the sensory evaluation, Hericium erinaceus sulgidduk with the additions of 3 and $6\%$ Hericium erinaceus powder were the most preferred with regard tochewiness, softness and overall acceptability. These results indicated that Hericium erinaceus sulgidduk with the addition of 3 and $6\%$ Hericium erinaceus powder have the best quality.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of oriental medicinal plant extracts added to chocolates on the moisture content, color, radical scavenging activity and sensory characteristics. The oriental medicinal plant extracts were added at a weight percentage of 0, 4 and 8%. As the ratio of the extracts in the chocolates increased, the moisture content, color, and radical scavenging activity increased. In sensory evaluation, significant differences (p<0.05) were shown in taste, bitterness, and overall acceptability depending on the addition of oriental medicinal plant extracts but there were no significant differences in chocolate aroma and texture.

In spite of the well confirmed advantages of wilting on the fermentation quality, wilting silages are difficult to make at optimum dry matter content. The prolonged wilting, especially in humid condition, result in lower water soluble carbohydrate (WSC) contents, extensive protein breakdown and sometimes higher total volatile fatty acid (VFA) during wilting an ensilage. Apart from difficulty of controlling moisture content, another problem associated with wilted silages is different evaluation on the potential productivity. In temperature climate of Asia, therefore further researches on the effects of wilting on the silage fermentation and potential productivity seen to be necessary.

Sensory evaluation method was used to develop a type jujube tea the organoleptic properties were evaluated with regard to the optimum sugar content, clarity, drinking temperature and fruit pulp content of the jujube tea. Clarified jujube tea extracted from 25% by weight of dry jujube fruits and 75% water was preferred to those from 15%, 20% and 30% jujube fruites although those from 20% and 30% were not significantly different at 5%level. In spite of the average acceptability score of cloudy jujube tea with 5% of added fruit pulp was not significantly different from that of clarified one, the more fruit pulp in the tea products the worse its acceptability. Cold jujube tea was preferred to warm and hot ones, but these were not significantly different.

Nutrient evaluation of sago fibre showed that the fibre has potential and could be utilized as feed for ruminants. However, as a source of nutrients, it has limitations arising from low intake, digestibility, crude protein and minerals content. The present study showed that the sago fibre is low in crude protein (3.3%) and high in neutral detergent fibre (72.5%) and acid detergent lignin (25.8%) contents. Treatment of sago fibre with urea increased the crude protein content from 3.3 to 16.7%. Both urea and sodium hydroxide treatment decreased the neutral detergent fibre level from 72.5 to 59 and 56.5%, respectively. Rumen degradation of sago fibre by nylon bag showed that both urea and sodium hydroxide treatments increased dry matter and organic matter disappearance of the fibre significantly. In vivo digestibility of 2% urea treated sago fibre was 47.5% and intake of the fibre was 1.57% of body weight of the lamb.

Visual observation and subjective assessments lack the objective evaluation of laser therapy effects of the epidermal pigmented lesions. In this study, we proposed the two methods; One is CIE(Commission International d'Eclairage) $L^*,\;a^*,\;b^*$ coordinate system($L^*$ : brightness, $a^*$ : red(+) $\sim$green(-) content, $b^*$ : yellow(+) $\sim$blue(-) content), and the other is the relative color difference measurement. And we applied these two methods for quantitative evaluation of the laser therapy effects.

Development of chocolate products to improve the quality and sensory properties with Saengmaeg-san powder (SP) was attempted. Effects of SP on color, viscosity, total phenol compound content, radical scavening activity and sensory characteristics. In color, lightness value was increased than milk chocolate without SP Also viscosity was significantly higher than chocolate without SP.Total polyphenol content of Saengmaeg-san chocolate was 191.52 mg/1 OOg and Dpph scavenging activity was 87.06%. Results of sensory evaluation, significant different (p < 0.05) were shown in softness, sweet taste, sour taste, bitter taste, texture and overall acceptability depending on the addition of SP.

This study compared the characteristics of consomme prepared by homeskill(Consomme A) and quantity food production skill(Consomme B) as well as by the main ingredients of Consomme. The highest portion of amino acids in Consomme was arginine, followed by glutamic acid and alanine. In sensory evaluation, Consomme A prepared with chicken meat and Consomme B with mixed beef & chicken were most preferred. This result showed that higher total amino acid content gave better sensory scores. There was a significant correlation between the turbidity of sensory evaluation and the color b value. Turbidity and viscosity of instrumental measurement were also significantly correlated.

Aluminum source in an Al-Fe coating reacts with molten carbonate and develops a protective $LiAlO_2$ layer on the coating surface during operation of molten carbonate fuel cells (MCFC). However, if aluminum content in an Al-Fe coating decreases to a critical level for some reasons during MCFC operation, a stable and continuous $LiAlO_2$ protective layer can no longer be maintained. The aluminum content in an Al-Fe coating can be depleted by two different processes; one is by corrosion reaction at the surface between the aluminum source in the coating and molten carbonate, and the other is inward-diffusion of aluminum atoms within the coating into a substrate. In these two respects, therefore, the decreasing rate of aluminum concentration in an Al-Fe coating was measured, and then the influences of these two aspects on the lifetime of Al-Fe coating were investigated, respectively.
