Pasting properties of 35 traditional (Japonica) and 23 high-yielding (J/Indica) rice varieties having various hydration rates at $23^{\circ}C$ were investigated. Amylograms showed that high-yielding rice varieties had higher values for peak (P), hot-paste (H) and cold-paste (C) viscosities than those for traditional rice varieties. P had a highly negative correlation with H/P, C/P and C/H. P of traditional rice varieties was positively and negatively correlated with protein amylose contents, respectively. However, H and C showed no correlation with protein or amylose content. No correlation was observed between amylograph indices and hydration rate of rice grain.

The acute toxicity of an insecticide cartap to several species of freshwater animals was evaluated in the laboratory with special reference to the species specificity, effects of water temperatures and pH values. The aquatic animals tested were the Carassius auratus L., Aphyocypris chinensis $G{\"{U}}NTHER$, Misgurus anguillicaudatus CANTOR, Moina macrocopa STRAUS. The susceptibility of aquatic animals to cartap was different with the species of animals. At the water temperature of $25^{\circ}C$ and pH 7, TLm values of the insecticide to the C. auratus L., A. chinensis G. and M. anguillicaudatus were 0.88, 0.26 and 0.13 ppm in 48 hours, respectively, and to Moina macrocopa S., 306 ppm in 3 hrs. In the case of the three species of fish, TLm 48 values were significantly decreased with rise in temperature. In the case of water flea, where TLm value was 107 ppm at $20^{\circ}C$, there was no consistent response to temperature change, with the highest figure at $25^{\circ}C$ than at either 20 or $30^{\circ}C$. and the susceptibility of C.auratus L. and A. chinensis G. greatly decreased with the increase of pH in water. The toxicity to M. anguillicaudatus and M. macrocopa was significantly higher at pH 9 than at pH 6 or 7. In conclusion, the toxicological reactions of the freshwater animals to cartap were variably influenced by the water temperatures and pH values of water and species of animals.

This study was carried out to examine that pepsin-hydrolyzed bovine lactoferrin has applicabilities which are market milk and dairy products. The stability of pepsin-hydrolyzed bovine apo-lactoferrin and the change of its antibacterial character has been studied under various method for pasteurization (LTLT; 65$^{\circ}C$ / 30min., HTST ; 75$^{\circ}C$ / 15sec., UHT ; 135$^{\circ}C$ / 3sec.) and pH Values (pH 2.0, pH 4.0, pH 6.8). The ehated samples were assayed for minimal bacteriocidal concentrations (MBCs) and bacteriocidal effect against E. coli. The results obtained were summarized as follows: After fractionation of pepsin-hydrolyzed bovine lactofeerin by gel filtration. several peptide fractions were found that had strong antibacterial activity. SDS-PAGE showed that the one of these fractions with strong antibacterial activity, which had a molecular mass a range of 30∼33KDa. The MBCs for pepsin-hydrolyzed bovine lactoferrin fraction No. 2 against E. coli required to cause complete inhibition of growth varied within the range of 200∼400 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml, depending on heat treatments and pH conditions. The peptide fraction No. 2 showed strong bacteriocidal activity against E. coli at LTLT and HTST treatments under acidic pH conditions. and was reduced activity at UHT treatment under pH 6.8 condition.

In this paper, we prove that if $f^nf'\;-\;P$ and $g^ng'\;-\;P$ share 0 CM, where f and g are two distinct transcendental meromorphic functions, $n\;{\geq}\;11$ is a positive integer, and P is a nonzero polynomial such that its degree ${\gamma}p\;{\leq}\;11$, then either $f\;=\;c_1e^{cQ}$ and $g\;=\;c_2e^{-cQ}$, where $c_1$, $c_2$ and c are three nonzero complex numbers satisfying $(c_1c_2)^{n+1}c^2\;=\;-1$, Q is a polynomial such that $Q\;=\;\int_o^z\;P(\eta)d{\eta}$, or f = tg for a complex number t such that $t^{n+1}\;=\;1$. The results in this paper improve those given by M. L. Fang and H. L. Qiu, C. C. Yang and X. H. Hua, and other authors.

The treatments of Tteokgalbi studied were: control (no antioxidants); (T1) ethanol extracts of Bacillus polyfermenticus SCD (5%); (T2) ascorbic acid (0.06%); (T3) ascorbic acid (0.03%) + ethanol extracts of B. polyfermenticus SCD (2.5%). The pH of T1, T2, and T3 samples was significantly (p<0.05) lower than that of the control for up to 3 days of storage. Thereafter T1, T2 and T3 had a significantly higher (p<0.05) pH value than the control during storage. TBA values were significantly lower (p<0.05) in all treated samples relative to the control. The TBA value of the control rapidly increased after 6 days of storage, whereas the TBA values of the test samples did not sharply increase. T3 samples treated with vitamin C and Bacillus polyfermenticus SCD had a higher TBA value than T1 and T2 samples. The VBN values of T1, T2 and T3 sampleswere lower than that of the control (p>0.05). VBN values of the ground pork meat samples significantly increased (p<0.05) with storage time. The total microbial counts of each sample significantly increased with storage time (p<0.05). The $a^*$ values of T1 and T3 samples containing added vitamin C were significantly higher (p<0.05) than that of the control and T2 samples during storage. The $b^*$ value of T2 samples was significantly higher (p<0.05) than that of other ground pork meat products during storage.

The toxicity values heavy metals were evaluated by immobilization and chronic reproduction impairment tests, using Daphnia magna. Acute tests were evaluated by the inhibition of their mobilization after 24hrs without food addition. The tests of reproductive impairment were investigated for 21 days by food addition and exchange or water. The effect of each concentration was assessed by Probit analysis and t-test. The results obtained from this study were as follows : 1) The change of pH and DO was not significant in the acute tests, while, in the reproductive tests, pH was increased by 0.3~1.4 and DO also increased. 2) The $E_iC_{50}$ values of immobilization to Daphnia magna in artificial fresh water were $0.030mg/{\ell}(Cu),\;0.054mg/{\ell}(Cd),\;0.12mg/{\ell};(Cr),\;0.74mg/{\ell}(Pb),\;3.4mg/ {\ell}(As)$ and the $NOE_iC$ values were $0.010mg/{\ell}(Cu),\;0.018mg/{\ell}(Cd),\;0.010mg/{\ell}(Cr),\;0.10mg/{\ell}(Pb),\;and\;$1.8mg/{\ell}(As)$. 3) The $E_rC_{50}$ values of reproductive impairment to Daphnia magna were $13.8\mu\textrm{g}/{\ell}(Cu),\;2.9\mu\textrm{g}/{\ell}(Cd),\;15.5\mu\textrm{g}/{\ell}(Cr),\;61.7\mu\textrm{g}/{\ell}(Pb),\;759\mu\textrm{g}/{\ell}(As)$, and $NOE_rC$ values were $0.95\mu\textrm{g}/{\ell}(Cu),\;$0.54\mu\textrm{g}/{\ell}(Cd),\;1.2\mu\textrm{g}/{\ell}(Cd),\;$7.4\mu\textrm{g}/{\ell}(Pb),\;110mu\textrm{g}/{\ell}(As)$. The results of tests using OECD artificial culture water were more sensitive than natural water for culturing. The presented data show that an artificial culture water is suitable in the experiment of bioassay for assessing the toxicity of marterials.

Prefried chicken patties were irradiated at dose levels of 0, 2, and 4 kGy using $Co^{60}$ source and stored at $3{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ and $-10{\pm}1^{\circ}C$, separately for the evaluation of color and sensory characteristics. Irradiation dose of 4 kGy slightly darkened the internal color of chicken patties. Except for the internal portion of the frozen samples, an increase (p<0.05) in Hunter 'L' values was observed for both the surface and interior of patties during storage. Upon refrigerated storage, Hunter 'a' values, both on the surface and internally, decreased as the storage period progressed. Only storage period affected (p<0.05) the Hunter 'b' values of patty surfaces and interiors. No difference (p<0.05) in odor, taste, color, and texture of the patties was observed for irradiation dose and storage period as evaluated by triangle tests except between 2 kGy and 4 kGy irradiated samples before forzen storage.

The objectives of this study were to examine the effect of early short-term temperature conditioning on metabolic rate and calpain/calpastatin system and to compare variations in metabolic rate and calpain/calpastatin system between Hanwoo and Holstein beef. Longissimus thoracis et lumborum of the right carcass from 3 Hanwoo and 3 Holstein bulls were removed within 30 min of exsanguinations, cut into three pieces, and then temperature conditioned until 3 h postmortem (PM) at 2, 16, and $30^{\circ}C$, respectively. Rigor values (R-values; $R_248$, $R_250$, and $R_258$), pH, muscle temperature, glycogen content, $\mu$- and m-calpain activities, and calpastatin acitivity were measured at 1, 3, 9, and 24 h PM, respectively. Hanwoo beef had higher muscle temperature, faster metabolic rate at early PM stage in R-values, and lower $\mu$-calpain activity than Holstein beef (p<0.05). The $30^{\circ}C$ treatment maintained muscle temperature of $30^{\circ}C$ until 3 h PM and resulted in faster pH decline at 3 and 9 h PM (p<0.05) than other treatments. The $16^{\circ}C$ had higher (p<0.05) muscle temperature at 3 h PM than the $2^{\circ}C$, but no difference in all other traits was observed between the $2^{\circ}C$ and the $16^{\circ}C$. Early shortterm temperature treatment used in this study was not sufficient to effectively activate calpain/calpastatin system. Correlations among all traits except m-calpain and muscle temperature were generally high (r>0.60; p<0.001). Among R-values, $R_258$ had higher correlations with other metabolic traits than those of $R_248$ and $R_250$. These data suggest that early PM metabolic rate, $\mu$-calpain activity, and calpastatin activity may be closely related to each other. Variations in metabolic rate and $\mu$-calpain activity at early PM stage between Hanwoo and Holstein beef may imply variations in meat quality between both breeds.

An experiment has been carried-out on physiological responses in Saanen, Anglo Nubian and Toggenburg goats at different body weights and feed intakes during treadmill exercise at $30{^{\circ}C}$ environmental temperature (ET). The results showed that respiration rate (RR) was significant between time ${\times}$ breed interaction (p < 0.01), with values for the Anglo Nubian being least, while the Saanen was intermediate. With time, RR differed significantly, and after 1 h the respective RR were 238, 221 and 303/min in the Saanen, Anglo Nubian and Toggenburg. With time the rectal temperature (Tr) increased gradually and after 1 h exercise mean values were 40.8, 41.3 and $40.7{^{\circ}C}$ in the Saanen, Anglo Nubian and Toggenburg respectively. Rump skin temperature (RTs) values differed significantly between Anglo Nubians and Toggenburgs, with the differences averaging 0.3, 0.6, 0.4 and $0.4{^{\circ}C}$ after 15, 30, 45 and 60 min exercise respectively. With breed, highest loin skin temperature (LTs) values were in the Anglo Nubian, with an overall mean of $37.9{^{\circ}C}$ (p < 0.05).

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of filling and packaging temperatures on the quality changes of retorted Samgyetang during storage. The samples were manufactured after filling the broth maintained either at $50^{\circ}C$ (T1) or $85^{\circ}C$ (T2) into pouch and followed by sterilizing them at $120^{\circ}C$ for 65 min under the F value of approximately 8.0. The samples were stored at $25^{\circ}C$ up until 6 months and various physic-chemical parameters including pH, oxygen ratio in the headspace of package, residual dissolved oxygen concentration in the broth, acid value, volatile basic nitrogen value (VBN), apparent viscosity, spreadability of porridge, and sensory attributes were analyzed periodically at month 0, 1, 3, and 6, respectively. During storage time, the dissolved oxygen concentration and acid values of T2 samples tended to increase slower than T1 (p<0.05). Between T1, and T2 samples, significant differences were observed for pH and dissolved oxygen concentration over the storage period while acid values and VBN values were significantly different from 3 months (p>0.05). Contrarily, no apparent differences were observed between two samples in the apparent viscosity, spreadability of porridge, and sensory attributes over the storage period (p>0.05).
