An experiment was conducted to observe the 5% CCFZ solution penetration depth through ray parenchyma and ray tracheid of Larix kapempferi. Moisture content was adjusted 28% for both sapwood and heartwood. Even though the moisture content was same, heartwood was 1.3 times less permeable than sapwood and the difference was found statistically significant. Due to anatomical differences between ray parenchyma and ray tracheid, ray parenchyma was about 1.3 times more permeable than ray tracheid. Penetration speed was high initially and it decreased rapidly in course of time.

In ordo. to develop the natural food preservative agent, freeze dried dandelion (Taraxcum platycarpum) was extracted with several solvents, and antimicrobial activity was investigated. The methanol extract obtained from the dandelion exhibited antimicrobial properties against five strains such as Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria monocytogenes, and Vibrio parahaemolyticus. The methanol extract at the concentration of 2000 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml completely inhibited the growth of B. subtilis, E. coli, L. monocytogenes and V. parahaemolyticus. Antimicrobial activity of the ethylacetate fraction from the methanol extract of dandelion was the strongest fraction compare to those the other solvent fractions such as n-hexane, chloroform, n-butanol and water. The ethylacetate fraction showed the inhibitory effect at the concentration of 0.5 mg/disc on the growth of the food spoilage microorganisms.

In order to improve decaying properties of the plywood, the effectiveness of the Malenit treatment on the shear strength and decaying properties of the plywood has been investigated. The results are as follows. 1. No decrease of the shear strength of the plywood has shown despite of plywood treatment with Malenit right after plywood made or veneer treated with the same preservative prior to plywood manu. factured. 2. The effectiveness of Malenit treatment on decaying property of the plywood has shown much greater than that of the untreated plywood and red pine sapwood. 3. Weight decreases of the test specimens due to the infection of the different fungi have seen in different ways. If fungi infected weight decreases of the specimens are different in it's degree due to the fungi.

A new colloidal silver (Ag) system is present in which a fine colloidal Ag is in situ deposited onto functionalized porous poly (ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) (poly (EGDMA)) microspheres. The effectiveness of Ag deposition was investigated considering the surface characteristics of poly (EGDMA) microspheres. The result reported in this study illustrates that the control of surface area and surface functionality (in this study, a hydroxyl group) of poly (EGDMA) microspheres is an important factor that determines practically the degree of deposition of colloidal Ag. The x-ray analysis showed that Ag nanoparticles were dispersed evenly inner and outer surfaces and had a face center cubic (fee) phase. In the preservative efficacy test, the Ag-containing poly (EGDMA) microspheres had a powerful anti-bacterial activity, showing a high potential for a new preservative in cosmetic industry.

A bacterium strain called Bacillus coagulans was isolated from an industrial wastewater drainage and selected for its antimicrobial activities against bacteria and fungi. Characterization studies strongly suggested that this strain is Bacillus coagulans. Antimicrobial activity was found against gram-positive, gram-negative bacteria and yeast strain. Maximal activity was observed after 24 h when incubated at $30^{\circ}C$ and pH 8. The activity was found to be stable at $75^{\circ}C$ for 30 min and at pH range of 2-12. Analysis of the antimicrobial compound by SDS-PAGE suggested a molecular mass of approximately 7.5 KDa. The substance was characterized as a bacteriocin, because of its proteinaceous nature and low molecular weight. Our bacteriocin could potentially be used as a food preservative, because of its thermostable property and broad antimicrobial spectrum.

The effect of condensates of phosphates on the preservative activity of the food additives, using eight micro-organisms, has been studied by the agar dilution method. It was found that condensates of phosphates increased the food preserving action of almost all of preservatives and they acted as a synergist for the action of almost all of preservatives. Disodium dihydrogen prrophosphate acted as the strongest synergist in the experiment. But sodium tripolyphosphate anhydrous, sodium poly-phosphate, sodium tripolyphosphate and sodium hexametaphosphate acted as a inhibitor for action of some preservatives on some orgnisms. The preservatives were sodium dehydroacetate (DHA), potassium sorbate and NaNO$_{2}$ etc. The action of sodium meta-phosphate on the preservatives produced a mean difference by their origins. It was supposed that such a difference was produced by the difference of amount of impurities that were contained in sodium metaphosphate, It was also supposed that the does of the preservatives could be reduced by addition of condensates of phosphates, acting as a synergist for the action of almost all of the preservatives.

In order to develop a natural food preservative, Korean plants were extracted with an ethanol and then antimicrobial activity was tested. The antimicrobial activity of the alcohol extract from the sample(Juniperus chinensis, Arundinaria simonii, Pinus densiflora, Artemisia princeps var. orientalis) was so high as to use for a food preservative. It was found that it had the antibacterial effect against a broad spectrum of saprogenous Bacillus sp. such as Bacillus subtilis KCTC 1021. Spraying them to the Ham, it was improved 2 days in its storage period compared to the control.

The rust fungi are biotrophic fungal pathogens that cause serious disease on Perilla leaves in Korea. The effect of some commonly used chemical preservatives (sorbic acid, D-sorbitol, propionic acid and benzoic acid) against Perilla rust was investigated in this study. Results of this investigation showed that all the preservatives were effective against Perilla rust except benzoic acid. There was no growth of rust spores on the Perilla leaves treated with 0.1% of preservative even after 21 days of preservation. However, 0.01% of preservative also showed remarkable reduction of rust spores on the Perilla leaves as compared to the control groups. Thus, the results of this study indicated that the chemical preservatives used might be useful to control the growth of rust fungi on Perilla leaves.

The production of emulsion sausage generally contain nitrite as a curing agent for preservative effect and color as well as flavor development. This investigation describe a study on the inhibitory effect of chitosan against some spoilage bacteria and substitution effect of nitrite in sausages. Among of the chitosan, M.W. 120KDa of chitosan has shown an antimicrobial effect. When 0.2% of chitosan and half of normal nitrite content were added to sausage, effect of preservative quality was same that added to normal content of nitrite in sausages. Sausage added to 0.5% of chitosan has been a good storage property even though without nitrite. The growth of most of bacteria was inhibited 80% or more at 0.01~0.2% of chitosan. These results indicated that M.W. 120KDa of chitosan as a natural material could provide sausage protection and very reduced or substituted amount of nitrite against spoilage bacteria.

Shoulder impingement syndrome is cause by the collision of acromion, acrominoclaviclar joint, coracoacromino ligament, coracoid process and synovial sac, biceps brachiialis tendon, rotator cuff muscle. Treatment for Shoulder impingement syndrome is genetally classified into two different methods; preservative method and operational method. Operational method includes rotator cuff sutura, anterior acromioplasty, arthroscope decompression. Preservative method includes rest, medicinal therapy, physical therapy. Physical therapy concentrates on pain control, functional recovery and prevention of disease progress. It is also important for physical therapy to maintain the strength of rotator cuff. Strengthening rotator cuff decreases the collision and helps the stability of shoulder joint. In conclusion, it must be aware that shoulder impingement syndrome and some other shoulder problem demand different treatment, which results in a better outcome.
