This study was designed to measure the amount of formaldehyde in the disposable napkins of eighteen (18) different products. It was aimed to investigate the actual situation of the napkin consumption and to relate it to the amount of formaldehyde measured. The degree of recognizability on the harmfulness of formaldehyde was also studied. The amount of formaldehyde was measured by means of the Acetyl Acetone method. The actual situation of consumption and the recognizability of the formaldehyde were investigated by questionnaire. in the survey, the subjects was 12~53 years old and lived in Seoul Kyoungki-city. The statistical methods used were simple frequency and chi-square. The results obtained from this study were as follows; 1) Among eighteen (18) different disposable napkins, all was found to have less amount of formaldehyde than the japanese regulation. 2) From the survey on the actual situation of consumption, most resondents (66.1%) experienced the dermaptological problem after using the disposable napkins. 3) The recognizability of formaldehede was very low. The recognizability on the harmfulness of formaldehyde was low too, which represented the consumers had least or no knowledge about the formaldehyde release problem.

To Know the factors required to make best quality of steamed rice with large amount of rice, several organizations that serve meals were surveyed. Factor that mostly influence the amount of water to the amount of rice is a kind or rice. In the case of good quality rice, when the amount of rice is more than 10cups, the ratio of water to rice is 0.9 and that of poor quality rice is 0.7 Average ratio is 0.8 Therefore, ordinarily with the ratio of 0.8, good quality of steamed rice can be made. Washed rice should be used to measured the of rice. To make a good quality of steamed rice with large amount of rice, center part of the boiling rice should be stirred generously several times to equalize the temperature.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of employment related factors on household savings for precautionary purposes when controlling for financial security and to compare the results between the two different economic periods. A conceptual framework was developed based on the precautionary saving theory, the family stress theory, and previous empirical studies. As a self-insurance, a measure of security funds were developed and used as the dependent variable. Using data on working households in the 1992 and the 1998 Survey of Consumer Finances (SCF), a MLE estimation was conducted on the pooled data. The 1992 and 1998 data were used to reflect periods of economic recession and expansion, respectively. The results suggested that factors representing resources played the most significant role in determining the amount of security funds. Some of the employment related factors, preferences, financial security, and race were also significantly affected the amount of security funds. The results suggested that stable employment conditions were important for households to accumulate security funds. Households with more human resources and financial resources had a larger amount of security funds than those that had less human and financial resources. From the findings, implications for research, policies, and financial educators had been suggested.

Adenosine deaminase (ADA) has been utilized as the label in devising a potentiometric homogeneous assay for riboflavin and riboflavin binding protein (RBP). The proposed homogeneous assay method employs an ADA-biotin conjugate as the signal generator and an avidin-riboflavin conjugate as the signal modulator in the solution phase. The catalytic activity of the ADA-biotin conjugate is inhibited in the presence of an excess amount of the avidin-riboflavin conjugate, and the observed inhibition is reversed in an amount proportional to the concentration of RBP added. When the analyte riboflavin is added to this mixture of ADA-biotin, avidin-riboflavin and RBP, the activity of the enzyme conjugate is re-inhibited in an amount proportional to the concentration of riboflavin. Since the enzyme label used in this system is ADA, an ammonia-producing enzyme, a potentiometric rather than photometric detection scheme is used to monitor the enzymatic activity in the assay.

Currently, since the total energy amount has been increased continuously, the effort for energy efficiency of apartment building is necessary. Although the previous studies have been focused on the issue. Almost studies are about the simulation by applying the energy analysis tools and a lack of studies have been conducted the data analysis about real city gas amount of apartment building. Therefore, the objective of this study is to analyze the city gas consumption difference according to the exclusive dwelling in apartment building. To address this issue, the descriptive, correlation, analysis of variance (ANOVA) statistics are used in this study. As a result, in the case of annual total amount, the city gas is increased as the size of the exclusive dwelling area is increased. In the future, the findings of this study can be used as a basic material to develop the prediction model of city gas in apartment building.

Water soluble hydroxyalkyl methycellulose ethers are used in a variety of applications incluing building industry as a supplementary agent used for incresing adhesives, water retention capacity, workability and viscosity modify. Water retention capacity(WRC) is the capability to contain water in the ploymer chain under condition of being mixed with cement. In general, the WRC is affected by the viscosity, the adding amount, the particle size, the rate of dissolving and the amount of substituted chemical in cellulose ethers. In the other words, WRC is increased as higher the viscosity, more adding amount, finer the particle size and longer the dissolving time of cellulose ethers. This thesis investigated each factor that effect the WRC, particularly the relation between degree of substitution(DS), molar of substitution(MS) and WRC. It is observed that WRC is not nearly affected by DS of cellulose ethers, but is changes proportionally as MS increases in the narrow range(0.10~2.25)

While theories of portfolio selection have been developed very little is known about how individuals actually go about constructing their asset potfolios. This study investigates empirically the characteristics of household's assets and which factor associated with risky and safe asset amount. Data used in this study consisted of 2,164 households and the statistics employed to analyze the data are univariate procedure Logit analysis and OLS. The results of this study were as follows: Among 2,164 households 505 housholds(23.3%) had risky assets. Average risky asset amount is 8,351,500 won and average safe asset amount is 7,086,900 won. Region education and occupation of household head home ownership transfer and other income and total expenditure had significant effects on either and other income and total expenditure had significant effects on either household having risky asset or safe asset. Financial income transfer and other income and total expenditure had significantly p sitive relation with the risky asset amount. Whereas age and the occupation of household head the sense of economic wellbeing earned financial tranfer and other income and total expenditure had significantly positive relation with safe asset amount.

Due to the demolition of old structures, primarily buildings, an amount of discharged construction wastes are increased. From the construction wastes, recycled aggregate can be used as a useful resource for concrete. However, its application to structural member is very limited. In this experimental study, the compressive strength of spun-concrete using recycled aggregate was investigated. Coarse aggregate was replaced with $100\%$ of the recycled coarse aggregate, and recycled fine aggregate was replaced with various amount. According to the test results, the specimen of spun-concrete showed uniform compressive strength regardless the amount of replaced recycled fine aggregate.
