Ba is the most useful element to get the $Ba(Ra)SO_4$ precipitate. However, when the high concentrations of ions such as sulfate, calcium are existed in the leachate of phosphogypsum stack, it is difficult to get the $Ba(Ra)SO_4$ precipitate. Since this reason, the developed method for the Ba coprecipitate using EDTA was performed to determine the $^{226}Ra$ concentration in the high sulfate sample. The average concentration of $^{226}Ra$ in a leachate of phosphogypsum using this method was 0.102 $Bq{\cdot}kg^{-1}$ and the minimal detectable activity is 3.4 $mBq{\cdot}kg^{-1}$. The $mBq{\cdot}kg^{-1}$ method was 0.102 $Bq{\cdot}kg^{-1}$ and the minimal detectable activity is 3.4 $mBq{\cdot}kg^{-1}$. The $^{226}Ra$ stock solution and the CRM (Certified Reference Material) were analyzed to verify this method. In analyzed $^{226}Ra$ stock solution, bias with added concentration was approximately 1% and the correlation curve between $^{226}Ra$ concentration in simulated standard sample and measured $^{226}Ra$ concentration showed good agreement with a correlation coefficient ($R^2$) of 0.99. In analyzed CRM, maximum bias with reference value was 5.8% (k=1) and the analytical results were in good agreement with the reference value.

In this study, an optimization for the production of water emulsion was designed by adding an extract of wheat sprout, which is known to contain a large amount of antioxidants. The central composite design of reaction surface analysis method (CCD-RSM) was used for the optimization process. The amount of emulsifier, emulsification time, and added amount of wheat sprout extract were selected as independent variables based on our preliminary experiments. The mean droplet size (MDS), viscosity, and emulsion stability index (ESI) were set as the responses to evaluate the stability of the emulsion. For each independent variable, the P-value and coefficient of determination were evaluated to verify the reliability of the experiments. From the result of CCD-RSM, optimum conditions for the emulsification were determined as 23.6 min, 7.7 wt.%, and 3.9 wt.% for the emulsification time, amount of emulsifier, and amount of sprout, respectively. From the optimized condition obtained, MDS, viscosity, and ESI after 7 days from reaction were estimated as 252.3 nm, 616.7 cP, and 88.7%, respectively. The overall satisfaction was 0.9137, which supported the validity of the experiments, and the error rate was measured at 0.5% or less by advancing the experiments. Therefore, an optimized process for producing an emulsion by adding the malt extract was designed by the CCD-RSM.

La_0.7-xCe_xSr_0.3MnO₃ specimens were fabricated by a solid state reaction method and structural and electrical properties with variation of Ce⁴⁺ contents were measured. All specimens exhibited a polycrystalline rhombohedral crystal structure, and the (110) peaks were shifted to low angle side with increasing the amount of Ce⁴⁺ contents. As Ce⁴⁺ ions with different ion radii and charges are substituted with La³⁺ ions, electrical properties are thought to be affected by changes in the double exchange interaction between Mn³⁺-Mn⁴⁺ ions due to distortion of the unit lattice, a decrease in oxygen vacancy concentration, and an increase in lattice defects. Resistivity gradually decrease as the amount of Ce⁴⁺ added increased, and negative temperature coefficient of resistance (NTCR) properties were shown in all specimens. In the La_0.5Ce_0.2Sr_0.3MnO₃ specimens, electrical resistivity, TCR and B-value were 31.8 Ω-cm, 0.55%/℃ and 605 K, respectively.

This study examined how much chicken meat was in sausage made with pork. Both real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and internal standard addition were used. Fifty ng of chicken DNA was added to the sausages as an internal standard. The addition of standard DNA increased the amplification efficiency of PCR and confirmed the possibility of quantitative analysis. A QIAamp DNA Micro Kit was used to improve the DNA recovery and amplification efficiency. The density of template DNA and primer were suitable for $3.0{\sim}5.0{\mu}L$ and $0.5{\mu}L$, respectively. Each DNA of pig and chicken was diluted in 10-fold from steps 50 ng to 0.05 ng. The detection limit of both pig and chicken meat was more than 0.05 ng and the correlation coefficient of the standard curve was at least 0.98. The result of the quantitative analysis after heat treatment of 3 samples of pigs and chickens mixed at 70:30 showed a 5.7% difference (64.3:35.7) between the expected value and measured value. The quantitative value was changed by affecting the DNA according to the heat treatment ($70^{\circ}C$, 10 min). An analysis of the pork and chicken content in sausages showed that it was difficult to detect chicken meat and the quantitative value of DNA according to the Ct value was very low. On the other hand, when adding standard material (50 ng of chicken DNA) to the sausages, the Ct value decreased gradually with increasing chicken mixing ratio. Thus, the mixing ratio of chicken in sausages could be estimated.

PbWO$_4$ can be densified at 85$0^{\circ}C$ and it shows fairy good microwave dielectric properties; dielectric constant($\varepsilon$$_{r}$) of 21.5, quality factor(Q $\times$f$_{0}$) of 37,224 GHz, and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency($\tau$/suf f/) of -31ppm/$^{\circ}C$. Due to its low sintering temperature, PbWO$_4$ can be used as a multilayered chip component at microwave frequency with high electrical performance by using high conductive electrode metals such as Ag and Cu. However, in order to use this material for microwave communication devices, the $\tau$$_{f}$ of PbWO$_4$ must be stabilized to near zero with high Q$\times$f$_{0}$. In present study, PbWO$_4$ was modified by adding TiO$_2$, B$_2$O$_3$, and CuO in order to improve the microwave dielectric properties without increasing the sintering temperature. The addition of TiO$_2$ increased the $\tau$$_{f}$ and $\varepsilon$$_{r}$, due to its high rr(200ppm/$^{\circ}C$) and $\varepsilon$$_{r}$(100). However, the addition of TiO$_2$ reduced the Q$\times$f$_{0}$ value. When the mot ratio of PbWO$_4$ and TiO$_2$ was 0.913:7.087, near zero $\tau$$_{f}$(0.2ppm/$^{\circ}C$) was obtaibed with $\varepsilon$$_{r}$=22.3, and Q$\times$f/$_{0}$=21,443GHz. With this composition, various amount of B$_2$O$_3$ and CuO were added in order to improve the quality factor. The addition, of B$_2$O$_3$ decreased the $\varepsilon$$_{r}$. However, increased Q$\times$f$_{0}$ and $\tau$$_{f}$. When 2.5 wt% of B$_2$O$_3$ was added to the 0.913PbWO$_4$-0.087TiO$_2$ ceramic, $\tau$$_{f}$ =8.2, $\varepsilon$$_{r}$=20.3, Q$\times$f$_{0}$=54784 GHz. When CuO added to the 0.913PbWO$_4$-0.087TiO$_2$ ceramic, $\tau$$_{f}$ was continuously decreased. And $\varepsilon$$_{r}$ . and Q$\times$f$_{0}$ were increased up to 1.0 wt% then decreased. At 0.1 wt% of CuO addition, the 0.913PbWO$_4$-7.087Ti0$_2$ Ceramic Showed $\varepsilon$$_{r}$=23.5, $\tau$$_{f}$=4.4ppm/$^{\circ}C$, and Q$\times$f$_{0}$=32,932 GHz.> 0/=32,932 GHz.X>=32,932 GHz.> 0/=32,932 GHz.

The microwave dielectric properties of $Zn_3Nb_2O_8\;with\;V_2O_5$ addition were investigated. The addition of $V_2O_5$ enhanced the sinterability of $Zn_3Nb_2O_8$, which resulted in high density of $Zn_3Nb_2O_8$ ceramic greater than 95% of the theoretical value when sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours. X-ray diffraction analysis of sintered $Zn_3Nb_2O_8$ ceramic showed no second phase with $V_2O_5$ addition. Dielectric permittivity(${\varepsilon}_r$) and quality factor($Q{\times}f$) varied with both density at different sintering temperature and $V_2O_5$ addition. Dielectric permittivity, quality factor and temperature coefficient($T_{cf}$) of the two mole of $V_2O_5\;added\;Zn_3Nb_2O_8$ that was sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ were 21.4, 40,000, $-54ppm/^{\circ}C$, respectively.

In this study, we optimized fermentation conditions for burdock vinegar by response surface methodology. We confirmed the fermentation characteristics and major components of burdock vinegar. Alcohol fermentation of burdock extract added with 15% apple concentrates for vinegar production was performed. Consequently, 6.4% alcohol was produced after 5 days of fermentation. Central composite design was applied to investigate the effects of two independent variables, fermentation time (5~17 days; X1) and fermentation temperature ($26{\sim}34^{\circ}C$; X2), on fermentation of burdock vinegar. Fermentation conditions were optimized using characteristics of fermentation broth as a dependent variable. Acetic acid contents of dependent variables were 3.85~4.73% during acetic acid fermentation. The correlation coefficient ($R^2$) of the derived equation from the response surface regression for acetic acid contents was 0.9850 with significance level of 1%. Arctiin contents of all fermentation samples were 0.37~0.50 mg/100 mL, with an $R^2$ value of 0.8380 and significance level of 5%. We elicited a regression equation for each variable and superimposed the optimum area of fermentation conditions for characteristics and effective constituent contents of the fermentation broth. The predicted values for the optimum fermentation conditions for burdock vinegar were at $31^{\circ}C$ and 16 days.

Stability of sodium borohydride solution during storage was studied. In order to enhance the $NaBH_4$ stability, NaOH and KOH were added to the $NaBH_4$ solution. The effect of concentration of the borohydride and alkaline solution, temperature and materials of storage vessels on the rate of borohydride hydrolysis was investigated. The rate of hydrogen evolution decreased as the concentration of alkaline increased due to increase of $NaBH_4$ stability in the solution. The stability of $NaBH_4$ solution decreased when the borohydride concentration raised from 10 to 15 wt% and then increased when the $NaBH_4$ concentration increased above 15 wt% due to increase in the pH of the concentrated solution. The activity coefficient of hydrolysis of $NaBH_4$ solution(NaOH 3.0 wt%, $NaBH_4$ 25 wt%) was 115.1 kJ/mol and this value was 1.5~4.0 times higher than that of hydrolysis of $NaBH_4$ solution with catalyst. The borohydride solutions in glass and stainless-steel vessel were more stable than the solution in plastic(PE) vessel.
