This study was conducted to minimize the deterioration of dried kiwifruit quality. Osmotic dehydration was carried out as pretreatment before drying. After the kiwifruits were pretreated under optimized osmotic dehydration conditions, they were dried by three drying methods(hot air drying, vacuum drying, freeze drying). Hot air drying and vacuum drying were superior to freeze drying in the drying speed. But vacuum and freeze drying preserved more vitamin C than hot air drying. Also, osmotic dehydrated kiwifruit kept better quality than nontreated kiwifruit. Diffusion coefficient which describes moisture transfer, was high in drying process pretreated with osmosis. The changes of vitamin-C followed the second-order reaction rate equation with high RE, respectively.

In this study, the effect of spray-drying conditions and surfactant addition on the spray-drying yield, morphological characterization, size distribution and re-dispersity in water of spray-dried lignocellulose nanofibril (LCNF) were investigated. The freeze-dried LCNF after solvent exchange had linear fiber morphology with a diameter of 70-300 nm, and the spray-dried LCNF showed rod-like particle morphology. The spray-drying yield and particle size of spary-dried LCNF at $140^{\circ}C$ was highest and smallest, respectively. As LCNF concentration and blowing rate decreased and increased, respectively, the spray-drying yield and particle size were increased. The highest spray-drying yield was found at distearyl dimethyl ammonium chloride (DDAC) addition of 10 phr at $140^{\circ}C$. As the particle size decreased and the DDAC content increased, filtration time of spray-dried LCNF in water was decreased and increased, respectively.

Chemical properties of barley leaf were investigated using different drying methods. Moisture contents of barley leaf were 75.22%, 7.54%, 2.57%, 6.74% and 8.91% for samples dried using raw, hot-air dryer, freeze dryer, shade dryer, vacuum freeze dryer and microwave dryer, respectively. Mineral contents were high Ca, Mg, Na, P, and K in barley leaf regardless of drying methods. Organic acid contents were oxalic acid, acetic acid, citric acid and fumaric acid with no differences between drying methods. Contents of vitamin C were 142.56 mg%, 629.23 mg%, 598.48 mg%, 657.62 mg% and 724.34 mg% for samples using raw, hot-air dryer, freeze dryer, shade dryer, vacuum freeze dryer and microwave dryer, respectively. Chlorophyll contents of barley leaf dried by hot-air dryer and shade dryer were higher than in that of freeze dryer and microwaves dryer. b-values were lower in freeze dryer than in that of other dried methods.

The hydrolyzed-lactose milk for the lactase-deficient subject is sweeter than whole milk, and some subjects dislike its taste. To overcome this shortcoming the dried liposomes containing ${\beta}$-galactosidase to digest lactose in milk after drinking were prepared and examined the possible application of this dried liposomes to the lactase-deficient subjects. To improve the stability of conventional liposome suspension, the dried liposomes in the presence of trehalose were prepared by the dehydration-rehydration vesicles method. Small unilamellar vesicles, prepared with egg phosphatidyl cholesterol, and cholesterol, were mixed with ${\beta}$-galactosidase solution and then ;up[jo;ozed. The freeze-dried liposome was rehydrated and centrifuged. The resultant multilamellar vesicles were mixed with trehalose(4g/g lipid) and then lyophilized to produce final dried liposome. Trehalose increased the entrapping efficiency of liposomes by 3 fo1d compared to the liposomes without trehalose (13% vs. 46%).

In a conventional sense, dried-spermatozoa are all dead and motionless due to the lost of their natural ability to penetrate oocytes both in vivo and in vitro. However, their nuclei are completely able to contribute to normal embryonic development even after long-term preservation in a dried state when the dried-spermatozoa are microinjected into the oocytes. In this sense, dried spermatozoa must still be alive. Thus, defining spermatozoa as alive or dead seems rather arbitrary. Several drying method of sperm including freeze-drying, evaporative/convective-drying and heat-drying were represented in this review. Although the drying protocol reported here will need further improvement, the results suggest that it may be possible to store the male genetic resources.

This study developed gasiogapidduk to increase the functional value and flavor of traditional Baiksulgi by adding gasiogapi powder. Powdered nonglutinous rice was mixed with powdered leaves (1%, 2%, 3%), powdered stems roots (1%, 3%, 5%), and powdered freeze-dried root extracts (5%, 10%, 15%) of Acanthopanax senticosus, known as the second ginseng, in order to find the combination ratio optimal to the senses. Sensory evaluation and texture characteristic evaluation of gasiogapidduk were used to develop a functional rice cake appealing to the largest number of people. Sensory evaluation consisted of evaluating color, smell, taste and texture, preference quality which reflects overall appeal. Texture characteristics were evalauated on hardness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, springiness and gumminess. As a result, AE5 mixed with 5% powdered freeze-dried Acanthopanax senticosus extract proved to be the most desirable in both sensory evaluation and texture characteristics.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the stability and efficacy of biologic membrane made of freeze-dried cartilage as a barrier to facilitate guided bone regeneration in experimental non-healing bone defects in the rat mandible. Nine adult Sprague-Dawley rats (400-500g) were used in experiment. 5.0mm in diameter were created on the mandibular angle area by means of slow-speed trephine drill. In microscopic examination, dynamic immature bone forming at 2 weeks and its calcification at 4 weeks were observed. The membrane made of lyophilized cartilage taken from human costal cartilage seems to be very effective for guided bone regeneration as a biologic membrane and the scaffold for attachment of cells or local drug delivery system of growth factor, which may meet the ideal requirement of a barrier membrane and graft materials.

Heavy metal adsorptions of four streptomycetes were compared with each other, Among the test strains, Streptomyces viridochromogenes showed the most efficient metal binding activity, which was carried out by cell wall as well as freeze-dried mycelium. An order of adsorption potential (zinc > copper > lead > cadmium) was observed in single metal reactions, whereas this adsorption order was disturbed in mixed-metal reactions. The metal adsorption reactions were very fast, pH dependent and culture age-independen, suggestive of a physico-chemical reaction between cell wall components and heavy metal ions. The metal tolerant stains presented the weakest adsorbing activity, indicating that the metal biosorption was not the basis of the metal tolerance.

Objective : Epidural fibrosis and adhesion are the main reasons for post-laminectomy sustained pain and functional disability. In this study, the authors investigate the effect of irradiated freeze-dried human amniotic membrane on reducing epidural adhesion after laminectomy on a rat model. Methods : A total of 20 rats were divided into two groups. The group A did not receive human amniotic membrane implantation after laminectomy and group B underwent human amniotic membrane implantation after laminectomy. Gross and microscopic findings were evaluated and compared at postoperative 1, 3 and 8 weeks. Results : The amount of scar tissue and tenacity were reduced grossly in group of rats with human amniotic membrane implantation (group B). On a microscopic evaluation, there were less inflammatory cell infiltration and fibroblast proliferation in group B. Conclusion : This experimental study shows that implantation of irradiated freeze-dried human amniotic membrane reduce epidural fibrosis and adhesion after spinal laminectomy in a rat model.

Clinical assessment of bone-graft healing in the maxillofacial region is generally limited to clinical evaluation, radiographs, and biopsy. Sequential interpretation of osseous repair, more sensitive than with conventional radiography is possible with a non-invasive, non-destructive radionuclide method. Technetium-99m radionuclide bone scan was used in the evaluation of the progress of osteogenic activity in autologous iliac bone graft and freeze-dried bone allograft of dog's mandible. Bone scan was performed at 1wk, 2wk, 4wk, 6wk, and 8wk after grafting. In autologous graft the activity ratio for the graft bone remained greater than that of the host since 2자 after grafting; however, in lyophilized allograft the activity ratio for graft bone was greater than that of the host at 6자 after grafting.
