본 연구는 소비자의 친환경 농산물에 대한 반응과 친환경 농산물 구입의향에 미치는 영향요인을 체계적으로 규명하기 위해 경험적 통계학적 분석을 시도함으로써 소비 확대와 친환경 농업정책 수립을 위한 시사점을 발견하는데 목적을 두었다. 소비자들의 친환경 농산물에 대한 인식의 정도와 주요 구입처, 친환경 농산물의 단점, 친환경 농산물을 구입하지 않는 이유 등 구입 실태에 대한 것은 설문조사를 통하여 살펴보았고 이를 토대로 친환경 농산물 구입의향에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 살펴보기 위하여 가설을 설정하고 그 가설을 검증하기 위해서 ANOVA분석, 상관분석으로 변수들의 관계를 살펴보았으며, 다중회귀분석을 통하여 가설을 검증하였다. 친환경 농산물에 대한 소비자 성향 분석 결과 친환경 농산물에 대한 구입이 있는 소비자는 전체 응답자의 88.2%였으며, 채소류를 가장 많이 소비하는 것으로 나타났다. 구매이유는 건강이나 질병치료를 위해서가 많았으며, 대부분 소비자들이 친환경 농산물의 가격이 높아 구입이 어렵다는 의견도 많았다. 그리고 일반농산물과의 선호도에서는 85.8%가 친환경 농산물에 대해 긍정적으로 생각하고 있었으며, 장래에도 가격이 저렴하고, 재배 유통과정이 확실하면 계속 구입하겠다는 의견이 89.3%로 나타났다. 따라서 친환경 농산물에 대한 소비자 의향에서 나타난 친환경 농산물의 소비 저해 요인을 최소화하고 소비를 확대시키기 위해서는 재배 및 유통 과정을 투명하게 소비자에게 알려 소비자가 신뢰할 수 있도록 철저한 품질인증 관리와 함께 관행재배 농산물이 유사 판매되지 않도록 하며, 잔류 농약으로부터 안전한 건강식품이라는 것을 소비자에게 인식시키는 일이 무엇보다 중요할 것으로 생각된다. 그리고 친환경 농산물 판로를 다양하게 하고, 고소득층이 사는 지역을 대상으로 일반 생필품과 함께 친환경 농산물을 구입할 수 있는 장소를 확대하는 한편, 생산 및 유통 판매 과정에서 발생되는 비용이 절감시켜 지나치게 높은 가격으로 판매되지 않도록 하여 친환경 농산물이 일반 농산물보다 더 비싸게 받아야 하는 이유를 소비자가 납득할 수 있도록 근거를 제시하는 등 소비 확대 노력이 전개되어야 할 것으로 생각된다.

1993년 지하수법 제정 이후 정책은 지하수 보전관리를 우선하고 보조수원으로 제한적으로 활용하는데 초점을 두어왔으나, 최근 인구 증가, 물 수요 증가, 균등 분배 및 기후 변화 등으로 지하수댐, 강변여과 등의 개발 정책을 중요시 하게 되었다. 인구의 증가, 물 환경의 변화 및 위해성 증가 등은 물 산업이 급격히 증가하는 요인으로 작용하여 왔으며 물 산업의 투자 규모는 지속 증가할 것으로 전망되고 있다. 그 동안 국내 지하수 시장은 일반 개인 관정 개발과 먹는샘물이 주도해 왔으나, 최근에는 지질학 기원의 차별화된 지하수 특성을 활용한 신규 사업 영역(건강, 의학 등)으로 확대되고 있다. 향후 지하수 분야가 물 산업 클러스터 내의 핵심으로 자리 잡고 정보통신기술 및 의학 등과 연계한 연구 및 기술 개발을 적극 추진하여 공공 지하수 개발, 지하수 활용의 다변화 등이 적극 추진되어야 할 것이다.

Among animals, the rabbit is known to be affected most sensitively by dietary changes and to be most susceptible to atherosclerosis. The exact reason is still unknown as to whether the primary cause is intrinsic (tissue itself) or extrinsic such as a blood factor which could be influenced by various dietary means. It is of utmost importance to check the nutritional quality of rabbit meat before it is accepted and adapted as a daily food item. To evaluate nutritional quality of rabbit meat, studies on various aspects of lipid components were carried out in comparison with other animal meats such as beef, pork and chicken also included in the study was the question whether the cooking and storage conditions influence the composition of fatty acids and cholesterol level. Some results and findings are listed below: 1. The content of linoleic acid (18 : 2), one of the essential fatty acids, was much higher in rabbit meat compared to the other meats. The Percentages of this Polyunsaturated fatty acids, was much higher in rabbit meat compared to the other meats. The percentages of this polyunsaturated fatty acid in terms of total fatty acids were $37.3{\pm}3.7$, 5.9, 14.5, and 21.9% for rabbit, beef, pork, and chicken respectively. The degree of unsaturation was high not only in meat but also in liver and adipose tissue of rabbit. The values of iodine number, the indication of degree of unsaturation, were known to be $102{\sim}107$, $32{\sim}47$, $46{\sim}67$, and $55{\sim}77$ for rabbit, beef, pork, and chicken respectively. Such a high proportion of this polyunsaturated fatty acid contained in rabbit meat could be harmful due to their Peroxidation effect. 2. A small amount of lower (short chain) fatty acids was isolated from rabbit tussues, which were not observed in other animal's tissues. The significance of this small amount of short chain fatty acids contained in rabbit meat remained an open question. 3. The concentration of total cholesterol in rabbit meat was similar to that of otherr but the content of esterified cholesterol was higher in rabbit meat. This was probably due to the perference of cholesterol to esterify with unsaturated fatty acids. By roasting the percentage of Polyunsaturated fatty acids was decreased while saturated palmitic acid was proportionally increased. 4 The composition of fatty acids were affected more by dry heat than moist heat. More research should be pursued to improve methods of preservation and storage to prevent possible peroxidation and rancidity problems of rabbit meat. In the meantime, the public should be informed to eat fresh rabbit meat and not to store it for a long period of time. This study was supported by the Ministry of Science and Technology in Korea.

Whereas NIR spectroscopy has been applied in agriculture for more than 20 years, few studies refer to those plant substances occurring only in smaller amounts. Nevertheless there is a growing interest today to support efficiently activities in the production of high-quality medicinal and spice plants by this fast and non-invasive method. Therefore, it was the aim of this study to develop new NIR methods for the reliable prediction of secondary metabolites found as valuable substances in various plant species. First, sophisticated NIR methods were established to perform fast quality analyses of intact fennel, caraway and dill fruits deriving from single-plants [1]. Later on, a characterization of several leaf drugs and the corresponding fresh material has been successfully performed. In this context robust calibrations have been developed for dried peppermint, rosemary and sage leaves for the determination of their individual essential oil content and composition [2]. A specially adopted NIR method has been developed also for the analysis of carnosic acid in the leaves of numerous rosemary and sage gene bank accessions. Carnosic acid is an antioxidative substance for which several health promoting properties including cancer preservation are assumed. Also some other calibrations have been developed for non-volatile substances such as aspalathin (in unfermented rooibos leaves), catechins (in green tea) and echinacoside (in different Echinacea species) [3]. Some NIR analyses have also been successfully performed on fresh material, too. In spite of the fact that these measurements showed less accuracy in comparison to dried samples, the calibration equations are precise enough to register the individual plant ontogenesis and genetic background. Based on the information received, the farmers and breeders are able to determine the right harvest time (when the valuable components have reached their optimum profile) and to select high-quality genotypes during breeding experiments, respectively. First promising attempts have also been made to introduce mobile diode array spectrometers to collect the spectral data directly on the field or in the individual natural habitats. Since the development of reliable NIRS methods in this special field of application is very time-consuming and needs continuous maintenance of the calibration equations over a longer period, it is convenient to supply the corresponding calibration data to interested user via NIRS network. The present status of all activities, preformed in this context during the last three years, will be presented in detail.

Although the human body is a biological subject with definite and distinctive physical features, its actualization and perception differs among societies. The aesthetics of the human body are based on diverse cultural perceptions that must be considered prior to design development. This study establishes the foundations of newly adopted concepts of beauty that are presumed to have been established in the first half of the twentieth century that continue to affect our mindset even now. The research includes human figures in the articles of women's magazines and cosmetic advertisements in the early $20^{th}$ century. The results are as follows: First, the change of perception in the human body: Instead of being a subject of preservation, the body has become a subject of sculpture with emphasis on health in the 1920's and on beauty in the 1930's. The recognition of the importance of the body has created intensive attention on physical training and an increased sense of hygiene. The body exposed to the public perceives itself through the eyes of others that alter one's own perception of oneself as well as become a target of evaluation. There is an additional emphasis on the exotic eroticism of a passive subordinate. Western culture became the standard for modernization along with the dissociation of traditional standards and values. Through the effect of education and western thinking, the awareness of women's rights and self-appreciation was developed. Second, ideal beauty can be summarized as follows: Unprocessed natural beauty was extolled as ideal in the 1920's, but the 1930's, it highlighted big eyes and an aquiline nose that are the characteristics of western women. Taking care of one's appearance was recognized as an important value for every social class. Cosmetics and skin care treatments promised soft and white skin. In contrast to western cosmetics, dark and shiny hair was highly favored. Exercising and traveling, differing seasonal and regional skin treatments were also widely accepted. In its initial stages, the research had originally assumed that the beginning of the twentieth century would be a time in which traditional concepts of beauty and new, westernized aesthetics coexisted. However, as the research progressed, it was clear that the idea of beauty had already adopted occidental ideals by that time. Thus, it seems necessary to continue the study on the shifting paradigms of beauty that must have occurred in the nineteenth and late twentieth century.

This study was devised to elucidate whether soused shrimp exhibits a digestive action on boiled pork meats. and the mechanism by which sousing with a high concentration of sodium chloride preserves nutrients in foods for a prolonged pe\ulcornerriod. Protease was isolated from soused shrimp using a combination of ammonium sulfate fractionation. DEAE - cellulose ion exchange chromatography and gel filtra\ulcornertion. The isolated protease had specific activity of 1.560 units. 210 purification fo\ulcornerld with an yield of 38%. Its optimum pH and temperature were 8.0 and $43^{\circ}C$ respectively. The molecular weight of the enzyme was 35.000. The Km value of the enzyme for casein was 1.6 x $10^{-6}$ M The e=yme required the presence of cu\ulcornerpric ion to exhibit its full activity. Eighty eight percent of the enzyme activity was in\ulcornerhibited by 3.5M NaCI showing a reversibly linear decrease of the enzyme activity as NaCI concentration increased. The nature of the inhibition by NaCl was rever\ulcornersible and noncompetitive. The protease activity in soused shrimp was well preser\ulcornerved with the elapse of time at least in part due to NaCI induced suppression of autodigestion. The enzyme was denatured by acid easily. i.e. 1% of the original activity remained after staying at pH 2 for 10 minutes. which is within the norm\ulcorneral range of pH of the human stomach. Soused shrimp was observed to be one of those containing the highest protease activity compared with the other soused foo\ulcornerds such as soused oyster. squid. clam. and Pollack intestine with respect to spec\ulcornerific activities of dialized 1:4 whole homogenates(w/v) in 5 mM sodium phospha\ulcornerte - 2.4 mM j3 - mercaptoethanol buffer. pH 8.0. Casein and boiled meats including pork, beef, and chicken appeared to be the good substrates for the protease. Casein was the best. Therefore. the ingestion of boiled meats including pork together with soused sh\ulcornerrimp would help digestion of boiled pork in human not only by increasing appe\ulcornertite also by the direct proteolytic digestion of boiled meats by soused shrimp to\ulcorner some extent. And a high concentration of sodium chloride inhibited the protease activity reversibly in a remarkable degree, which ensued in a significant retardat\ulcornerion of autodigestion of protein in foods by proteases, and hereby contributed to the preservation of foods for an extended period.

우리가 일반적으로 인식하고 있는 자연자원의 하나인 산림이 제공해 주는 중요한 기능은 공기 정화기능과 그 속에서 인류에게 휴식과 휴양활동을 가능하게 해 주는 보건기능이라고 할 수 있다. 하지만, 근래에 들어 사람들이 누리고 있는 자연환경의 중요성은 인식하지만 어느 정도의 가치가 있는지에 대한 질문에는 쉽게 대답하기 곤란하다. 그 이유는 환경재가 시장에서 거래되지 않는 공공재이기 때문에 거래 가격이 형성되지 않기 때문이다. 그렇기 때문에 현재 통화가치로 측정하기도 쉽지 않으며, 이 가치측정을 위한 아이디어들이 경제학자들 사이에서 탐구되어 왔다. 대표적인 환경재의 가치추정을 위한 방법은 조건부가치측정법(Contingent Valuation Methods: CVM)이며, 수학, 통계학, 경제학의 발달과 이들 학문과의 융합과정에서 다양한 추정방법들이 연구되어지고 시도되어 왔다. CVM에서 주로 사용하는 측정방법은 단일경계와 이중경계에서의 로짓과 프로빗 방법이며, 이 네가지 추정액을 비교하기 위해 본 연구가 수행되었다. CVM 추정액은 단일경계에서 의 로짓 중앙값이 가장 낮은 추정치가 도출되었으며, 이중경계에서의 프로빗 평균값이 가장 높은 추정치가 도출되었다. CVM을 통한 환경재의 추정금액과 추정방법의 선행연구가 몇몇 있었으나 부분적으로만 비교하는데 거쳤으나, 본 연구는 1,123부의 설문지를 통하여 네 가지 분석방법과 금액을 비교하여 제시하였다. 본 연구의 도출된 결과는 차후의 추정액과 추정방법의 비교를 위한 기초자료로 사용될 것으로 기대된다.

Objectives : JiaoTeng-Yuan(교등원) is said to be a prescription for preservation of health in $\ulcorner$HuaTuo.ZhongZangJing (화타.중장경)$\lrcorner$. It is known to have the effect of Bu-Shen (보신: strengthening kidney) and Yi-Shou (익수: prolonging the span of one's life). This study investigates whether JTY is effective on inhibition of oxidation stress. Methods : Sprague-Dawley rats (12-week-old, weight $300{\pm}20g$) were divided into 3 groups. The normal group (n=8) was injected with PBS (1ml/body, s.c) subcutaneously behind the neck. The control group (n=8) was injected with D-galactose (50mg/kg, 1ml PBS/body, s.c) to induce pathological animals. The JTY group was injected with the same treatment as the control group, and fed containing JTY (10%). All groups were treated 1 time per day for 6 weeks. After the rats were sacrificed anti-oxidant enzyme (SOD, CAT, G-px) activity, GSH quantity of RBC and tissue (heart, liver and kidney), and plasma Vit-C quantity were examined. Also, the MDA levels of liver and kidney, lipofuscin of heart and endurance of erythrocyte membrane were measured. Results : In the JTY group, RBC's SOD activity decline was halted by 21 % of the normal level, compared to the control group, G-px activity (unit/g of Hb) increased significantly, compared to the normal group, and the level of Vit-C in plasma increased by 16%. Heart's SOD activity was kept at the same level as that of the normal group; and CAT activity decline was halted by 26%. Kidney's CAT and G-px activities were kept at the same level as that shown in the normal group, implying the existence of a halting effect. Liver also showed a slight halting effect against the decline of anti-oxidant ability, but the effect was not significant (${\alpha}=0.05$). A comparison between the levels of peroxide in SD rats showed that the level of TBARS in plasma increased significantly in the control group and that it was normal in the JTY group. The livers in the JTY group, compared to those in the control group, showed 36% halting effect of the normal level while their kidney's indicated the level significantly lower than the normal level. Heart's lipofuscin increased significantly in the control group, but was alike in both the JTY and the normal groups. Endurance of erythrocyte membrane (%) decreased significantly in the control group while it was kept at the similar level in both the JTY and the normal groups, indicating the halting effect. Conclusions : This study suggests that JTY is effective to defend oxidation stress caused by D-galactose in the animals. It showed that the anti-oxidant ability was maintained and strengthened. On the other hand, it reduced the level of peroxide in animals. In sum, JTY appeared to have the equilibrium normal physiological function in SD rat.

Benign lung tumors have been considered as relatively rare disease, which comprise approximately 8 to 15% of all solitary pulmonary lesions that are detected radiographically. We clinically analized 30 cases of benign lung tumors underwent the operation from Jan. 1970 to Aug.1991 in the department of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, Catholic University Medical College. We adopted the classification presented by the World Health Organization[WHO], modified from Liebow, and added benign mesothelioma. There were 11 males & 19 females ranging in age from 2 years to 68 years old % the mean age was 38 years old. Of all 30 benign lung tumors, hamartomas [14 cases, 49%] were the most common & followed by hemangiomas [9 cases, 30%], 3 cases of benign mesotheliomas % a case of teratoma, papilloma, arteriovenous malformation and inflammatory pseudotumor. 14 cases of tumors were asymptomatic & were incidentally detected by plane chest x-ray In other cases, chief complaints at admission were coughing, chest discomfort, dyspnea, hemoptysis, and fever. Diagnosis were made by pathological examination; exploratory thoracotomy in 23 patients[76.7%], bronchoscopy in 4 patients and percutaneous needle aspiration biopsy in 3 patients. Precisely, preoperative diagnosis for confirmation of benign lung tumor was made only in 7 cases[23.6%]. Tumors were located on Rt.side[24 cases], especially Rt. middle lobe, and Lt.side[6 cases]. Operation methods were as follows: 21 cases [70%] of lobectomy, 2 cases of segmentectomy, 2 cases of wedge resection, 1 case of pneumonectomy, 1 case of bronchotomy, 2 cases of wedge resection, 1 case of pneumonectomy, 1 case of bronchotomy removal of the endobronchial hamartoma which located at the rt. main stem bronchus and 3 cases of complete resection in benign mesotheliomas. There were no operative death. The post operative complications were developed in 3 cases; post pneumonectomy empyema, wound infection and atelectasis. In conclusion, benign lung tumors must be histologically diagnosed to confirm of benignity and to provide limited resection for preservation of the lung tissue, whenever possible.
