The study was carried out to evaluate the antioxidant activity of grape seed extracts by measuring acid value, peroxide value (POV), thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS value) and electron donating ability by 1,1-dipheny1-2-pycryl hydrazil (DPPH) method. Total phenol content of freeze dried crude solvent extracts increased in the order of ethanol>acetone>hot water. Among extracts, the total phenol content of 70% ethanol extract of grape seed (GSE) was the highest, 51%. Besides the total phenol, the other major components of GSE were crude carbohydrate (29.63%), crude protein (3.38%) and crude lipid (2.84%). The acid values of crude rice bran oil containing GSE or several antioxidants at the concetration of 0.01% were 52.3 for the control, 0.5 for GSE, 2.3 for dibutyl hydroxytoluene (BHT), 45.0 for tertiarybutyl hydroxy quinone (TBHQ), 29.9 for tocopherol and 37.7 for ascorbic acid. The POVs for linoleic acid methyl ester in the presence of 0.01% antioxidants were 1220 meq/kg in control, 55 meq/kg in GSE, 104 meq/kg in BHT, 952 meq/kg in tocopherol and 71 meq/kg in GSE, 37% in BHT, 37% in tocopherol and 52% in ascorbic acid. The electron donating abilities by DPPH in the presence of 0.01% antioxidants were 95.3% in GSE, 75.0% in BHT, 96.3% in tocopherol and 98.2% in ascorbic acid. These results indicated that the antioxidants activities of GSE were significantly higher than those of several antioxidants compared.

Physicochemical and organoleptic properties were investigated in starch extracted from acorn gamma-irradiated for insect control. Hunter's color L, a, and b values were unchanged upon irradiation at 0.25 to 10 kGy. Scanning electron microscopic observation revealed no changes with gamma irradiation at 1 kGy, that is effective for disinifestation, whereas 10 kGy resulted in some clefts on the starch surface. X-ray diffraction analysis showed patterns of both amorphous and crystalline regions were not different among the treatment groups. Water-binding property, swelling power, solubility, and gelatinization patterns of starch were influenced by irradiation dose, but 1 kGy dose was not detrimental to the physicochemical properties. Textural parameters of acorn gel were relatively stable, but significant reductions were found in hardness, adhesiveness, and chewiness in samples irradiated at 3 kGy or higher. Rrsults revealed that irradiation at 1 kGy or lower could be applied for insect control without causing apparent changes in physicochemical and organoleptic properties of acorn starch.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of fluoride application on the aspect of shear bond strength of three aesthetic restorative materials to dentin. One light-cured composite resin(Palfique Esterite) and two light-cured glass ionomer cements(Fuji II LC and Compoglass)were used in this study. 120 permanent molars were used for this study. The teeth were extracted due to the origin of periodontal disease. The crowns of all teeth were removed, and the remaining roots were embedded in epoxy resin. The mesial or distal surfaces of roots were ground flat to expose dentin and polished on wet 320-, 400-, and 600 grit SIC papers for a total of 120 prepared flat root dentin surfaces. The prepared samples were divided into six groups. Group 1, 3, and 5 were control groups and group 2, 4, and 6 were experimental groups. Sixty samples for experimental groups were treated with 2% NaF solution for 5 minutes. Group 1 and 2 were bonded with Plafique Esterite, group 3 and 4 were bonded with Fuji II LC, and group 5 and 6 were bonded with Compoglass. After 24 hours water storage at $37{\pm}1^{\circ}C$, all samples were subjected to a shear to fracture with Instron universal testing machine(No.4467) at 1.0 mm/min displacement rate. Dentin surfaces treated with each conditioners before bonding and interfacial layers between dentin and aesthetic restorative materials were observed under Scanning Electron Microscope(Hitachi S-2300) at 20Kvp. The data were evaluated statistically at the 95% confidence level with ANOVA test. The result were as follows; 1. Among the control groups, group 1 showed strongest bond strength and group 3 showed weakest. 2. Among the experimental groups, group 2 showed strongest bond strength and group 6 showed weakest. 3. Statistical analysis of the data showed that pretreatment of dentin with 2% NaF solution significantly decreased the bond strength of three aesthetic restorative materials to dentin(P<0.05). 4. SEM findings of fluoride treated dentin surfaces (2, 4, 6 group) demonstrated dentin surfaces covered with fluoridated reaction products. 5. Except group 4 and 6, resin tags were formed in all groups.

This study was designed to investigate the effects of dietary protein and calcium levels on Ca, Fe, Cu, Zn and Mg accumulation of the tissue of the Pb-administered rats. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were assigned to a 3$\times$3$\times$2 factorial design with 3 levels of protein (40%, 15%, 6%), 3 levels of Ca (1.2%, 0.6%, 0.12%) and 2 feeding periods (3 and 7 weeks). The control group was included separately. The rats were exposed to the drinking water containing 2,000ppm of lead. Calcium contents in serum, liver and femur were decreased with Pb administration. Calcium contents in serum and femur were reduced with dietary protein and Ca levels. Level of serum Fe showed no significant difference with Pb administration in the rats fed the high Ca diet. Iron content in liver was not affected by the lead when the rats fed the diet containing high protein and Ca. Level of serum Cu was lower in the Pb added groups than in the control group and tended to be reduced with decreasing dietary protein and Ca levels. Copper content in liver was not affected by the lead when the rats fed the high Ca diet. Level of serum Zn was decreased in the low protein-low Ca group. Magnesium content in serum was decreased with Pb administration when the rats fed the diet containing low protein and Ca. However, magnesium content in liver was reduced with Pb administration and affected only by dietary protein level.

Seedlings of 6 tree species were treated with artificial acid rain and acid mist (pH 5.0, 4.0, 3.0) and ground water (pH 6.5), to select $SO_2$-resistant tree species. The growth variable, leaf injury rate and chlorophyll content were measured and compared among the various pH levels. Seedling height of Rosy multiflora decreased with deceasing pH levels of artificial acid rain and was tallest at control plot, but that of Ailanthus altissima was tallest at pH 5.0 plot. For the seedlings of Robinia pseudoacacia, Magnolia obovata and Wistaria floribunda, top and root dry weights per seedling at pH 5.0 plot were higher than those at control plot. Leaf injury rate(injured leaf area and injured leaf rate) increased with decreasing pH levels of artificial acid rain, the changes of leaf chlorophyll content was slightly different among tree species. Leaf chlorophyll content of Rosa multiflora, measured during the period July to September, decreased with decreasing pH levels of artificial acid rain. Leaf chlorophyll content of Magnolia obovata increased on July, but decreased severely on September, with decreasing pH levels, of artificial acid rain.

In this study, chiffon cakes were prepared with wild grape powder. Different amounts of the wild grape powder were tested (3%, 6%, 9%, and 12%) to determine the optimal amount. Rice chiffon cake was evaluated for quality characteristics, antioxidant properties, and sensory evaluation. The specific gravity of control batter was 0.48 g/mL, and it decreased with increasing amounts of wild grape powder, whereas viscosity showed the reverse effect. The pH of batter and cake decreased with increasing amounts of wild grape powder. The moisture content significantly increased with increasing amounts of wild grape powder, and the water activity of cakes was not significantly different between samples from 0.905~0.908. For color, lightness and yellowness deceased with increasing amounts of wild grape powder, whereas redness showed the reverse effect. For texture, hardness, fracturability, gumminess, and chewiness significantly increased with increasing amounts of wild grape powder. Total polyphenol content, DPPH radical scavenging activity, and ABTS radical scavenging activity significantly increased with increasing amounts of wild grape powder. In the sensory evaluation, the control sample showed the highest scores for color, flavor, softness, and overall acceptability. Based on these results, wild grape powder could be considered as a functional material, and 6% wild grape powder is the optimum level for manufacture of rice chiffon cake.

This experiment was carried out to commercialize an irrigation control system by finding out problems and solving them in application of a nutrient supply system through this experiment. Its efficiency had been tested through hydroponic cultivation of tomato and cucumber using this system in the farmer's plastic house (1-2W, 20a : Yanggyo-ri, Oseong-myeon Gyeonggi-do) from November. 2006, too. In the first cultivation, tomato seeds (cultivar Coco, Takii Seed Co. Japan) were sowed on November 8, 2006, and transplanted on January 8, 2007. and then, in the second, cucumber (Chuichong, Nongwoo Seed Co.) were cultivated in the same plastic house (sowing date : June 27, transplanting date : July 13). In the third, another cucumber cultivar (Jo-woon, Dongbu-hannong Seed Co.) were cultivated (sowing date : September 5, transplanting date : September 23). All of seedlings were transplanted on perlite bag ($W340{\times}L1,200{\times}H150mm$, 40L). By using this system, 971 boxes (5 kg/box) of tomato were produced and sold, and then total income was 5,466 thousand won per 10a. On the second cultivation, total amount of cucumber production was 489 boxes (50 ea/box), and total income was 7,380 thousand won. On the third cultivation, total amount of production was 67 boxes (100 ea/box), and total income was 1,854 thousand won. On the other hand, this system saved irrigated water by 50% ($4,000{\rightarrow}2,000L/10a/day$) in tomato cultivation, and by 44%($4,500{\rightarrow}2,500L/10a/day$) in cucumber cultivation. It also saved cost of nutrients by 50% in tomato ($1,648{\rightarrow}824thousand\;won/10a$), and 44% in cucumber ($1,648{\rightarrow}725thousand\;won/10a$). Furthermore this irrigation system maintained moisture content in perlite bag stable during cultivation period. Therefore, this system was successfully applied on farmer's greenhouse without a problem and can be commercialized for farmers.
