The aim of this study was to observe the changes in allergenicity of saeujeot (salted and fermented shrimp) using a competitive indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (Ci-ELISA). The fermentation conditions tested for saeujeot consisted of various temperatures (25, 15, and $5^{\circ}C$) and salt concentrations (25, 15, and 10%). When saeujeot was fermented at a low salt concentration and high temperature, the binding ability of mAb and shrimp-allergic patient serum to allergen was significantly decreased. In particular, the binding ability of mAb to allergen in saeujeot fermented with 10% salt at $25^{\circ}C$ for 5 days decreased to 5%. Also, the binding ability of shrimp-allergic patient serum to allergen in saeujeot fermented for 5 days with 10% salt at $25^{\circ}C$ was 8%. In conclusion, the binding of mAb and shrimp-allergic patient serum to tropomyosin in saeujeot decreased with longer fermentation periods, lower salt concentrations (10%), and higher temperatures ($25^{\circ}C$).

Stress response to the seawater acclimation in coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) smolt was investigated. Salt concentration of rearing water was gradually increased for 3 days from freshwater to seawater (30 ppt salt level). The changes of serum concentrations of cortisol as a primary stress indicator, and as secondary indicators, glucose (GLC), lactate (LAC), triglyce.ide (TG), cholesterol (CHOL), sodium ion $(Na^+)$, chloride ion $(Cl^-)$ and enzyme activities (alanine aminotransferase, ALT: aspartate aminotrasferase, AST; lactate dehydrogenase, LDH) were quantified during the acclimation experiment. Among them, cortisol, LAC, TG, CHOL, ALT, AST concentrations showed rapid increase at the first exposure to the 10ppt salt level (day 1), and began to decrease to the constant values after day 2 of adaptation at 20ppt salt level. However, LDH concentration tended to decrease during the whole experimental period. $Na^+\;and\;Cl^-$ showed slight decrease at day 1, and increased to a little bit higher values after day 2 rather than those in freshwater. All the fishes started on taking a food after day 4 of seawater adaptation. From these results, to reduce osmotic shock inducible stress to fish in seawater acclimation, gradual increase of salt levels is recommended.

Although disinfection in drinking water treatment plants provides a safer water supply by inactivating pathogenic microorganisms, harmful disinfection by-products may be formed. In this study, the disinfectant, chlorine, was produced on-site from the electrolysis of salt (NaCl), and the by-products of the disinfection process, bromate and chlorate, were analyzed. The provisional guideline levels for bromate and chlorate in drinking water are $10{\mu}g/L$ and $700{\mu}g/L$, in Korea, respectively. Bromide salt was detected at concentrations ranging from 6.0 ~ 622 mg/kg. Bromate and chlorate were detected at concentrations ranging from non-detect (ND) ~ 45.3mg/L and 40.5 ~ 1,202 mg/L, respectively. When comparing the bromide concentration in the salt to the bromate concentration in the chlorine produced by salt electrolysis, the correlation of bromide to bromate concentration was 0.870 (active chlorine concentration from on-site production: 0.6-0.8%, n=40). The correlation of bromate concentration in the chlorine produced to that in the treated water was 0.866.

This study was conducted to develop the fermentation kinetic modeling for the prediction of pH and acidity changes in kimchi at isothermal and nonisothermal fermentation temperatures(0~15$^{\circ}C$) and salt concentrations(1.5~4.0%) using the traditional two-step method and alternative one-step method. The calculations of the two-step method of pH and acidity change during fermentation followed the pattern of the first order and zero order, respectively. The reaction rate constant of pH by the first order was increased from 0.008 {TEX}$day^{-1}${/TEX} to 0.017 {TEX}$day^{-1}${/TEX} by increasing the temperature from $0^{\circ}C$ to 15$^{\circ}C$ at 2.75% of salt concentration, and was decreased from 0.013 {TEX}$day^{-1}${/TEX} to 0.010 {TEX}$day^{-1}${/TEX} by increasing the salt concentration from 1.5% to 4.0% at 5$^{\circ}C$. For the pH and acidity of Kimchi, the zero order had a higher correlation than the first order to the estimate of the kinetics parameters by the one-step method. The {TEX}$E_{a}${/TEX} ranges of pH and acidity were 61.057~66.086 and 62.417~68.772 kJ/mole with different temperatures and salt concentrations. This one-step method had smaller and more realistic estimates of error(p〈0.05). The effective temperatures, {TEX}$T_{eff}${/TEX}, with 0~15$^{\circ}C$ of square function type of 12 hr intervals were 12.85, 11.48 and 12.46$^{\circ}C$ as increasing the salt concentration, 1.50, 2.75 and 4.00%, respectively. The {TEX}$T_{eff}${/TEX} were higher values than the mean temperature(7.5$^{\circ}C$).

본 연구는 염 농도 별 나문재의 생장과 식물체 내의 무기 이온과 아미노산 함량, 광합성 효율 등을 조사하여 염농도에 따른 나문재의 생리적 특성을 구명하고자 실시하였다. 나문재의 초장, 분지수, 건물중을 조사하였을 때, 50 mM에서 최적의 생육 상태를 보였고 50~100 mM의 염농도 범위에서 생육이 양호하였다. 식물체 내 무기이온의 함량은 염농도가 높을수록 Na 이온의 함량은 증가하였고, K, Ca, Mg 이온의 함량은 감소하였다. 식물체 부위별 무기이온의 함량은 Na 이온의 함량은 지하부보다 지상부에서 더 높게 나타났다. 염농도에 따른 식물체의 유리아미노산 함량을 보면, proline을 제외한 glycine 등의 16종의 아미노산은 공통적으로 생육에 최적 염농도인 50 mM에서 함량이 가장 낮게 나타났으며, proline은 정반대로 50 mM에서 현저히 높은 함량을 보였다. 염농도에 따른 광합성 효율은 50 mM에서 가장 높았으나 400 mM의 높은 염농도에서도 광합성효율의 저하는 크지 않았다. 결론적으로, 나문재의 생육에 최적 염농도는 50 mM이었지만, 염농도 변화에 따른 식물체 내의 무기이온, proline 등의 아미노산 함량의 변화, 그리고 고염조건에서도 광합성 효율을 유지할 수 있는 생리적 특성으로 0~400 mM의 넓은 범위의 염농도에서도 생육이 가능하여, 염농도의 변이가 큰 신간척지에 적합한 염생식물로 판단된다.

A hydroponics experiment was performed to study the physiological and biochemical changes in Moroccan barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) varieties cultivated under salt stress conditions. Four barley varieties were grown under exposure to three salt concentrations, including 0, 200, and 300 mM NaCl. The ANOVA for both salt stress-sensitive and resistant varieties indicated that salt treatment represented the main source of variability in all studied traits. Salt treatment significantly reduced root and shoot dry weight (RDW and SDW), relative water content (RWC), and chlorophyll content (Chl a, Chl b, and Chl T). However, increases in electrolyte leakage (EL) along with proline and total soluble sugar (TSS) contents were recorded. In addition, large variations in all measured traits were found between varieties. The 'Massine' and 'Laanaceur' varieties displayed relatively higher RDW and SDW values. The 'Amira' and 'Adrar' varieties showed lower RWC values and Chl contents than those of the controls indicating their relative sensitivity to salt stress. Principal component analysis revealed that most of the variation was captured by PC1 (72% of the total variance) which grouped samples into three categories according to salt treatment. Correlation analyses highlighted significant associations between most parameters. Positive relationships were found between RDW, SDW, RWC, Chl content, and soluble proteins contents, while all of these parameters were negatively associated with EL intensity, proline content, and TSS content. The results from this study showed that the 'Massine' and 'Laanaceur' varieties were relatively salt-tolerant. These two salt-tolerant varieties present a good genetic background for breeding of barley varieties showing high salt tolerance.

This study analyzes guidelines to select optimum number of grids to represent behavior of a given water system appropriately. The EFDC model was chosen as a 3-D hydrodynamic and water quality model and salt was chosen as a surrogate variable of pollutant. The model is applied to an artificial canal that receives salt water from coastal area and fresh water from a river from respective gate according to previously developed gate operation rule. Grids are subdivided in vertical and horizontal (longitudinal) directions, respectively until no significant changes are found in salinity concentrations. The optimum grid size was determined by comparing errors in average salt concentrations between a test grid systems against the most complicated grid system. MSE (mean squared error) and MAE (mean absolute error) are used to compare errors. The CFL (Courant-Friedrichs-Lewy) number was used to determine the optimum number of grid systems for the study site though it can be used when explicit numerical method is applied only. This study suggests errors seem acceptable when both MSE and MAE are less than unity approximately.

Recognition thresholds for NaCl, sucrose, citric acid, and caffeine, as well as the pleasant concentration of NaCl were assessed in 176 males and 312 females aged 50-88 years. Furthermore, relationships among taste sensitivities, taste preferences, and lifestyles were examined. The taste solutions were presented one after the other in ascending order using the sip-and-spit method. For the recognition thresholds of the 4 basic tastes, women perceived significantly lower concentrations than the men. However, the pleasant concentration of NaCl did not show a gender difference. Sensitivities for the 4 basic tastes did not decrease with age in the men, but they did significantly decrease with age for the women, especially for those above 70 years. For men, regular exercise was positively correlated with sensitivities for sour taste and bitter taste, and physical activity was negatively correlated with the pleasant concentrations of NaCl. For women, who had more physical activity, sensitivities for sweet taste and sour taste were lower compared to the others. This study indicates that the sensitivities for 4 basic tastes in water diminished with age, but pleasant salt concentration did not change with age. Further research on pleasant NaCl concentration is required to determine factors affecting salt preference, in order to decrease salt intake in the elderly.
