The authors studied the viability and pH of Lactobacillus casei which was isolated from the Yakult in terms of its storage temperature time(days). The following results have been obtained: (1) The viability test to Lactobacillus casei under storage in 4$\circ$C temperature condition in 35 days, has shown that the original population of $4.0\times 10^8$ organisms was decreased to $0.1\times 10^8$, under storage in 10$\circ$C temperature the organisms to $0.08\times 10^8$, in room temperature the organisms to $0.009\times 10^8$, and in 35$\circ$C temperature the organisms to $0.0009\times 10^8$. The correlation coefficient of storage period (days) and number of bacterial viability were significant as r=0.956(p<0.01) in 4$\circ$C, r=-0.999 (p<0.01) in 100C, r=0.975(p<0.01) in room temperature and r=-0.923(p<0.01) in 35$\circ$C. (2) The pH test to Lactobacillus casei unde.r storage in 4$\circ$C temperature condition for 35 days has shown that the original pH of 3.54 were acidified to 3.35, under storage in 10$\circ$C temperature the pH were acidified to 3.20, in room temperature the pH were acidified to 3.15, and in 35$\circ$C temperature the pH were acidified to 3.0. The correlation coefficient of variation of pH between storage period (days) and temperature were significant as r=-0.972(p<0.01) in 4$\circ$C, r=-0.922 (p<0.01) in 10$\circ$C, r=-0.963 (p<0.01) in room temperature and r=-0.953 in 35$\circ$C.

In this work we deposited Pentacene thin film by OMBD at the various substrate temperatures, deposition rate and the various annealing temperatures for the fabrication of organic TFT and investigated the electrical and film surface characteristics such as sheet resistance, contact resistance and conductance Film thickness were measured by $\alpha$-step and the sheet resistance, contact resistance and conductance were extracted from the relation between the distance of the contacts and the resistance. During the film deposition the substrate temperature was held at 3$0^{\circ}C$, 4$0^{\circ}C$, 5$0^{\circ}C$, 6$0^{\circ}C$, 8$0^{\circ}C$ and 10$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. After the film deposition, Au contact was deposited by thermal evaporation. For the effect of annealing, the thin film was annealed in the nitrogen environment at 10$0^{\circ}C$ and 14$0^{\circ}C$ for 10 seconds, respectively. Film surface characteristics at the vatious substrate temperatures were measured by AFM. The crystallization of thin film was improved as the substrate temperatures were increased and the maximum gram size was 4${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The conductivity of thin film was found to be 7.40 $\times$10$^{-7}$ ~ 7.78$\times$10$^{-6}$ S/cm and the minimum contact resistance was 2.5324 ㏁.

A long term feeding trial was conducted to study the effects of different dietary vitamin C levels on growth and its tissue distributions in juvenile Korean rockfish, Sebastes schlegeli. Prior to the start of feeding trial, fish were fed the basal diet supplementing no L-ascorbic acid for four weeks to minimize their body reserves of vitamin C. Then fish were divided into six groups with triplicates and given one of the laboratory semipurified diets supplementing either 0, 25, 50, 75, 150, or 1500 mg L-ascovbic acid (AA)/kg diet $(C_0,\;C_{25},\;C_{50},\;C_{75},\;C_{150},\;&\;C_{1500})$. Fish fed the $C_0$ diet had lower percent weight gain, feed conversion ratio, specific growth rate, and protein efficiency ratio than did fish fed the other diets (P<0.05). After 28 weeks of feeding trial, tissue AA concentrations of fish fed $C_0$ diet were lower than those of fish fed $C_{1500}$ diet (P<0.05). A large amount of total tissue Ah may be reserved in muscle, but the unit AA concentration seemed to be higher in brain than did the other tissues. The growth performances of fish fed $C_{25}$ diet were not different compared to those of fish fed $C_{50}-C_{1500}$ diets (P>0.05), and diet analysis of vitamin C showed that the $C_{25}$ diet had 65 mg AA/kg diet. Therefore, the present long-term study may suggest that the dietary vitamin C requirement is approximately 65 mg AA/kg diet in juvenile Korean rockfish.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of green tea catechins on the antioxidative defense enzyme activity of kidney in diabetic rats. Sprague-Dawley male rats weighting 100$\pm$10g were randomly assigned to one normal and three STZ-induced diabetic groups; catechin free diet(DM-0C group), 0.25% catechin diet(DM-0.25C group) and 0.5% catechin diet(DM-0.5C group). Diabetes was induced by intravenous of 55mg/Kg body weight of STZ in sodium citrate buffer(pH 4.3) after 4 weeks feeding of experimental diets. Rats were sacrified at the 6th day of diabetic states. Superoxide dismutase(SOD) activity in kidney was decreased by 25% and 20% in DM-0C and DM-0.25C groups compared with normal group, DM-0.5C group was not significantly different when compared with normal group. Glutathione peroxidase(GSHpx) activity in kidney was were no significant differences the diabetic groups compared to normal group. Xanthin oxidase(XOD) activity was increased by 110% and 63% in DM-0C and DM-0.25C groups compared with normal group, DM-0.5C group was not significantly different when compared with normal group. The contents of superoxide radical(O$_2$)in kindney were 116% and 33%, respectively, higher in DM-0C and DM-0.25C groups than normal group. DM-0.5C group and normal groups were similar levels in their superoxide radical contents of kidneys. Levels of TBARS(thiobarbituric acid reactive substance) in kidney were increased by 62% in DM-0C group, when compared with normal group, but those of DM-0.5C group were similar to that of normal groups. These results indicate that free radical generation system was weakened and free radical scavenger system was enhance in kidney of STZ-induced diabetics rats by dietary catechin. Thereby it may reduce renal disorders such as oxidative damage and aging of tissue.

Objective: To estimate the association between ABCG2 C421A polymorphism and response to imatinib in chronic myeloid leukemia. Methods: A systematic review was conducted to evaluate the effect of ABCG2 C421A polymorphism on imatinib response. The databases of PubMed, Embase, Web of science, CINAHL with FullText, and Cochrane Library were searched for all published studies from inception to December 2015. The following terms were used with functions of 'AND' and 'OR': 'chronic myeloid leukemia', 'CML', 'drug transporter', 'ABCG2', 'BCRP', 'polymorphisms', 'SNPs', and 'imatinib'. The studies reporting the association between ABCG2 polymorphism and imatinib response were evaluated. Results: A total of 7 studies were included in the present meta-analysis. The pooled analysis showed that ABCG2 c.421CC genotype was significantly associated with poor response to imatinib under the dominant model (CC vs CA+AA; OR: 0.56; 95% CI: 0.41, 0.77; p = 0.0004). The subgroup analysis of Asian studies demonstrated a significantly lower response in c.421CC genotype than in c.421CA or c.421AA genotype (OR: 0.52; 95% CI: 0.37, 0.73; p = 0.0002). In subgroup analyses of 5 studies, the patients with the c.421CC genotype exhibited higher risk for worse response than the patients with c.421CA or c.421AA genotype (heterozygote codominant model: CC vs. AC; OR: 0.49, 95% CI: 0.33, 0.73; p = 0.0006; homozygote codominant model: CC vs AA; OR: 0.43; 95% CI: 0.25, 0.75, p = 0.003). Conclusion: The ABCG2 c.421CC genotype was significantly associated with poor response to imatinib compared to the c.421CA and c.421AA genotypes in chronic myeloid leukemia, especially in Asian patients.

This study was carried out to determine the effect of treating with salt-fermented shrimp on quality of pig meat. The treated pig meats were stored at 4$^{\circ}C$, 1$0^{\circ}C$, 2$0^{\circ}C$ or 4$^{\circ}C$ after placing 2$0^{\circ}C$ for 35 hours, respectively. Meat tenderness was improved more at 2$0^{\circ}C$ storage than at 1$0^{\circ}C$ and 4$^{\circ}C$ storage. However, in water holding capacity, the meat stored at 4$^{\circ}C$ was increased more than them of 1$0^{\circ}C$ and 2$0^{\circ}C$. Cooking loss was decreased more at 4$^{\circ}C$ than the other storage temperatures. When meat color observed, it was good at the early stage of storage but went down to the worse gradually. According to the result of SDS-PAGE, myofibrillar proteins were degraded more after treated with salt-fermented shrimp than the control. Among them, titin-I was especially degraded after 2 days at 4$^{\circ}C$ storage even though it was degraded after 1 day at 1$0^{\circ}C$ and 2$0^{\circ}C$ storage. These results suggest that salt-fermented shrimps cause to improve the quality of pork meats by increasing the meat color, meat tenderness and water holding capacity at the early stage of storage.

To investigate optimum temperature for storage of fresh ginseng (Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer), the quality of the ginseng was compared during its storage at $-3^{\circ}C$, $-1.5^{\circ}C$ and $0^{\circ}C$. The deterioration rate of fresh ginseng stored at $-3^{\circ}C$ was the lowest for 8 weeks after storage. The rate was rapidly increased after that time and the rate at $-3^{\circ}C$ was higher than that of fresh ginseng stored at $-1.5^{\circ}C$ or $0^{\circ}C$ after the 12th week of storage. The deterioration severity of the fresh ginseng stored at $0^{\circ}C$ was much higher than that of the ginseng stored at $-1.5^{\circ}C$ and $-3^{\circ}C$. The weight loss of fresh ginseng ranged from 0.7---- to 1.6---- after 16th week; it was the lowest in the ginseng stored at $-1.5^{\circ}C$ and similar in fresh ginseng stored at $0^{\circ}C$ and $-3^{\circ}C$. The number of viable cells and molds in the fresh ginseng stored at $-3^{\circ}C$ was smaller than the fresh ginseng that was stored at other temperatures for 12 weeks, but did not differ with different storage temperatures after the 14th week of storage. The surface color of the fresh ginseng at $0^{\circ}C$ or $-1.5^{\circ}C$ was changed little while the discoloration of fresh ginseng at $-3^{\circ}C$ was relatively great. The electrolytic leakage from the rhizome of the fresh ginseng stored at $-3^{\circ}C$ was higher than that of the rhizome stored at $-1.5^{\circ}C$ and $0^{\circ}C$. The overall sensory quality of the fresh ginseng dropped below 3.0 in the S-point scale after the 10th week of storage at $-3^{\circ}C$ and after the 14th week of storage at $-1.5^{\circ}C$ and $0^{\circ}C$ (p<0.05).

The effect of WC or NbC addition on various properties of Ti(C0.7N0.3)-Ni cermets was investigated. The microstructure oj Ti(C0.7N0.3)-xWC-20Ni showed a typical core/rim structure, irrespective of the WC content, whereas the structure oj Ti(C0.7N0.3)-xNbC-20Ni was different and was dependent on the NbC content. The hardness (HV) and the fracture toughness (KIC) had a tendency to increase marginally, while the coercive force (HC) and the magnetic saturation $(4{\pi}{\sigma})$ decreased gradually with an increase in WC or NbC content in the systems studied. In addition, increasing WC content in Ti(C0.7N0.3)-xWC-20Ni system, decarburization was retarded, while denitrification was accelerated

Development and reproduction of the cotton caterpillar, Palpita indica, were investigatedunder different temperatures (15 .O, 17.5, 20.0, 22.5, 25 .O, 27.5, 30.0, 32.5, and 35 .O$^{\circ}$C). Duration fromegg to pre-adult of the cotton caterpillar were ranged from 68.6 days at 175$^{\circ}$C to 19.7 days at 35.0% (3.5times shorter growth period compared with that at 17S$^{\circ}$C). At 15.0$^{\circ}$C, cotton caterpillar eggs developedto the last larval instar but were not able to go through the pupal stage. The lower developmentalthreshold temperatures and degree-days of egg, larva, pupa, and complete development were 13.4, 10.6,11.6, and 11.5"C and 55.3,251.5, 138.3, and 479.8 degree days, respectively. The hatching, pupation andemergence rates were higher at 25.0eC and 27.5"C compared with other temperatures. The survival ratefrom the hatched larva to adult was the highest at 27.5"C. The preoviposition and the adult longevity were11.5 and 30.6 days at 17.5"C and 1.5 and 9.2 days at 35.0$^{\circ}$C, respectively. The mean fecundity perfemales was greater at 25.0$^{\circ}$C and 27.5"C compared with other temperatures. Mean generation time indays (T) was shorter on higher temperature. Net reproductive rate per generation (R,) was the lowest atthe highest temperature as well as at the lowest, and it was 199.1 which was the highest at 27.5"C. Theintrinsic rate of natural increase (r,) was highest at 30.0$^{\circ}$C as 0.148. As a result, optimum ranges oftemperature for P. indica growth were between 25.0-32.5"C .emperature for P. indica growth were between 25.0-32.5"C .t;C .
