  • This study aimed to develop appropriate temperature management practices and provide scientific evidence to support the development of sell-by-date guidance for eggs. Washed and unwashed eggs were subjected to storage under six different scenarios, and both types of eggs were stored at temperatures up to 35℃ to evaluate the sell-by-date. Despite temperature fluctuations or continuous storage at 30℃ for 5 days, subsequent storage at 10℃ resulted in significantly higher Haugh unit and yolk index on day 15. These results indicate that refrigerating eggs from retail sales until consumption is effective for egg quality management, despite the exposure of up to 35℃ during distribution. In terms of sell-by-date evaluation, washed eggs retained class B quality for an additional 37 days beyond the recommended sell-by-date at 15℃, which is above the regulated storage temperature. However, unwashed eggs maintained class B quality for approximately 20 days at 30℃-35℃, emphasizing the need for sell-by-date guidelines for unwashed eggs. This study is the first to provide appropriate egg-handling practices based on the actual distribution environment in Korea.

  • With the rapid growth of mobility technology, the industrial sector is demanding storage devices that can reliably process data from various equipment and sensors in vehicles. NAND flash memory is being utilized as a storage device in mobility environments because it has the advantages of low power and fast data processing speed as well as strong external shock resistance. However, flash memory is characterized by data corruption due to long-term exposure to high temperatures. Therefore, a dedicated system for temperature management is required in mobility environments where high temperature exposure due to weather or external heat sources such as solar radiation is frequent. This paper designs a dedicated temperature management system for managing storage device temperature in a mobility environment. The designed temperature management system is a hybrid of traditional air cooling and water cooling technologies. The cooling method is designed to operate adaptively according to the temperature of the storage device, and it is designed not to operate when the temperature step is low to improve energy efficiency. Finally, experiments were conducted to analyze the temperature difference between each cooling method and different heat dissipation materials, proving that the temperature management policy is effective in maintaining performance.

  • Fluorine-doped ($SnO_2$:F) thin films obtained by pyrosol deposition method have been exposed to R.F. excited pure hydrogen plasma under the following conditions; substrate temperature of 200$^{\circ}C$, $H_2$ pressure of 1 Torr, R.F. input power of 50 mW/$\textrm{cm}^{2}$, $H_2$ flow rate of 30cc/min and exposure time of 15-600 seconds. It is found that the sheet resistance of the films remains unchanged or rather slightly reduces for initial exposure time of 30-60 seconds, but increases sharply with further increasing the exposure time. The optical transmittance of $SnO_2$:F films slows a rapid fall with increasing exposure time except for a film obtained with a solution having $CH_3OH/H_2O$ mol ratio of 2.65, its degradations at the exposure time of 30-60 seconds are about 7-15%. In addition, the exposure of the films to hydrogen plasma atmosphere leads to remarkable changes in the microstructure and chemical composition, which should be attributed to the reduction of $SnO_2$ to SnO and to elemental Sn.

  • As part of a balanced testing battery, subchronic inhalation studies on rats are performed to ensure that proposed cigarette modifications do not increase the toxicity of smoke and to demonstrate any instances where a modification may actually contribute to harm reduction. For subchronic inhalation studies with aerosols, the OECD suggests an exposure regimen of 6 hours/day (OECD Guideline 413, 1981), but alternative regimens have also been published: 1 hour/day and $2{\times}1$ hour/day. The aim of this study was to validate a rodent nose-only exposure system for the assessment of inhalation toxicity of cigarette smoke. In this study, cigarette smoke exposure system is consisted of cigarette smoke generator, smoke concentration adjusting system, and 20-port nose-only exposure system. Male SD rats were exposed for 35 days ($2{\times}1$ hour/day) to 3R4F Reference cigarette smoke and analysed major monitoring items of OECD Gudeline 413. WTPM, was measured in the test atmosphere, respiratory function (Buxco Biosystems) during exposure, postexposure urinary exposure biomarkers and alveolar neutrophiles in BAL fluid (Day 35) were evaluated. Validation demonstrated steady WTPM ($257{\pm}20ug/L$, $502{\pm}27ug/L$) and spatial uniformity (<10%). Nose port temperature ($22{\sim}26^{\circ}C$ and RH (45~75%) were acceptable over 35 days. Reductions in respiratory rate and minute volume and increase in the neutrophiles in BALF and the urinary exposure biomarkers were observed cigarette smoke dose dependently. This validation and 35-day inhalation study has shown that the rodent nose-only exposure system may be useful in the inhalation toxicity assessment of cigarette smoke.

  • AES was used to study oxygen adsorption due to the oxygen exposure at 300\ulcorner temperature and segregation of impurities due to annealing on polycrystal copper surface. The intensity of peak of CuM2, 3VV and CuL3 VV increased with annealing time and the peak of CKLL increased after Ar ion bombardment. The effect of oxygen adsorption on copper surface at 300\ulcorner was verified by the decreased of peak of CuM2, 3VV and CuL3 VV as oxygen exposure increase. The binding energy of copper atoms gradualy shifts from 0.7eV to 1.5eV of copper atoms gradually shifts from 0.7eV to 1.5eV after a oxygen exposure. After the oxygen exposure, the width at half the height of CuM2, 3VV is larger 2V*C/S by the effect of chemical liaison of the copper aton with oxygen atom.

  • Photoinhibition of photosystem (PS) n was induced in primary leaves of 25 day-old peppers grown $100\;{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1},\;at\;25^{\circ}C$. The modulation of PSII functionality in vivo was induced by varying both irradiance ($0-3000\;{\mu}molm^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$) and duration (0-70 min) of light treatment. The functionality of PSII was investigated in terms of photochemical efficiency of PSII (Fv/Fm) and quantum yield of $O_2$ evolution, and expressed as a function of photon exposure [$mol\;photons{\cdot}m^{-2}$, the product of irradiance and duration of light treatment (Bell and Rose, 1981)]. Contrary to the linear decline of Fv/Fm ratio showing 50% decreases by absorption of $10\;mol\;photons{\cdot}m^{-2$, quantum yield of $O_2$ evolution decreased biphasically with increasing photon exposure, showing 50% decreases by absorption of $5.5\;mol\;photons{\cdot}m^{-2}$. Treatment of low temperature at $15^{\circ}C$ for 30 min alone did not affect the functionality of PSII, but high temperature ($45^{\circ}C$) significantly inactivated PSII activity. However, when Jeaves of pepper were subjected to low or high temperature in the presence of light, PSII was substantially photoinactivated. These results suggest the presence of different photoinhibitory mechanisms at low and high temperature.rature.

  • The present experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of simulated heat stress on digestibility and methane ($CH_4$) emission. Four non-lactating crossbred cattle were exposed to $25^{\circ}C$, $30^{\circ}C$, $35^{\circ}C$, and $40^{\circ}C$ temperature with a relative humidity of 40% to 50% in a climatic chamber from 10:00 hours to 15:00 hours every day for 27 days. The physiological responses were recorded at 15:00 hours every day. The blood samples were collected at 15:00 hours on 1st, 6th, 11th, 16th, and 21st days and serum was collected for biochemical analysis. After 21 days, fecal and feed samples were collected continuously for six days for the estimation of digestibility. In the last 48 hours gas samples were collected continuously to estimate $CH_4$ emission. Heat stress in experimental animals at $35^{\circ}C$ and $40^{\circ}C$ was evident from an alteration (p<0.05) in rectal temperature, respiratory rate, pulse rate, water intake and serum thyroxin levels. The serum lactate dehydrogenase, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase activity and protein, urea, creatinine and triglyceride concentration changed (p<0.05), and body weight of the animals decreased (p<0.05) after temperature exposure at $40^{\circ}C$. The dry matter intake (DMI) was lower (p<0.05) at $40^{\circ}C$ exposure. The dry matter and neutral detergent fibre digestibilities were higher (p<0.05) at $35^{\circ}C$ compared to $25^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$ exposure whereas, organic matter (OM) and acid detergent fibre digestibilities were higher (p<0.05) at $35^{\circ}C$ than $40^{\circ}C$ thermal exposure. The $CH_4$ emission/kg DMI and organic matter intake (OMI) declined (p<0.05) with increase in exposure temperature and reached its lowest levels at $40^{\circ}C$. It can be concluded from the present study that the digestibility and $CH_4$ emission were affected by intensity of heat stress. Further studies are necessary with respect to ruminal microbial changes to justify the variation in the digestibility and $CH_4$ emission during differential heat stress.

  • The main object of this paper is to investigate the effects of high temperatures on the physical and mechanical properties of natural sand concrete(NSC) and crushed sand concrete(CSC). Test samples were exposed to high temperature ranging from $200^{\circ}C$ to $800^{\circ}C$. After exposure, various tests were conducted. Color image analysis and weight losses were determined and compressive strength test and splitting tensile strength test were conducted. The results indicated that weight losses increased as exposure temperature increased with comparable decreasing rate. The results also showed that compressive strength and splitting tensile strength and modulus of elasticity decreased as exposure temperature increased. The results also showed that residual compressive strength of NSC decreased more drastically than that of CSC at $200^{\circ}C$ and $400^{\circ}C$. Residual splitting tensile strength of NSC decreased more than that of CSC at $200^{\circ}C$, while NSC and CSC showed comparable residual strength ratio at $800^{\circ}C$.
