Conidial germination of Septoria glycines Hemmi, brown spot fungus of soybean, was studied by slide germination test. Poor conidial germination of S. glycines was observed on sterile distilled water, but potato dextrose agar(PDA) and distilled water floated with soybean leaf disc furnished a satisfactory medium for conidial germination. Exogenous supply of carbon source was essential for conidial germination, while phosphorous and potassium were not evident as that for carbon. Soluble starch was the most suitable as a carbon source for conidial germination and followed by D-glucose, D-galactose and lactose in that order. Maximum germination was attained in the $5\times10^{-2}mol$. concentration of glucose. Germination was decreased with increment of conidial concentration and was almost completely suppressed in the density of 10,000 conidia per $mm^2$. It suggested existing a self-inhibitor(s). Non-washed conidia germinated more than washed conidia and this was obvious when the conidia density was over $2\times10^3$ conidia per $mm^2$ on the dry agar block.

This study was carried out to elucidate suitable supplementary nutrition for Neolentinus lepideus cultivation. The main substrate for cultivation was douglas fir sawdust, and supplementary materials for experiment were corn meal, corn hull, corncob, beet pulp, and potato starch. The higher amount of total nitrogen source was showed in corn meal (0.45%) than any other nutritive materials. Incubation ratio and cultivation period showed the best 97% and the shortest 43 days on medium with corn meal substrate. The fruit body yield and biological efficiency on medium with 10% corn meal were highest 122 g/1 kg and 35%, respectively. Factor analyses concerning fruiting yield showed total nitrogen source (r = 0.95) and crude fat (r = 0.65). These results are recommended that N. lepideus cultivation is corn meal material as the source of the supplementary nutrition and total nitrogen source as the factor of fruiting body yield on the Douglas fir sawdust medium.

For identifying the cause of the difference from the texture of mealy potatoes-Namjak and soomi- and soggy Potatoes-Daeji and Dowon-, starch and pectic substances and their relating materials were analyzed, and polygalacturonase(PG) activity was measured. The shape and size of Namjak and soomi starch granules were circular and diameter ranged from 0.02 to 0.024 mm. In the meanwhile, Daeji and Dowon had two sizes of starch granules; larger one tend to be oval in shape and diameter of longer side ranged from 0.04 to 0.045 mm, that of narrower side ranged from 0.02 to 0.03 mm and smaller one was rather circular in shape and average deameter was below 0.005 mm. Oval shaped potato starch grancules under polarized light showed dark cross of V-shape, whereas circular granules showed cross shape. Total sharch contents of Namjak and soomi were higher than that of Daeji and Dowon. The changes of pectic substances were the decrease of the insoluble pectin and the increase of the soluble pectin, and the reduction of the total pectic substance content after cooking. This phenomena were more prominent in Namjak and Soomi than in Daeji and Sowon. PG activities of Namjak and Soomi were greater than Daeji and Dowon. Calcium contents of Namjak and Soomi were lower than Daeji and Dowon. Phytic acid contents of Namjak, Soomi, Daeji and Dowon were 0.093%, 0.096%, 0.078%, and 0.081%, respectively. Hardness of Namjak and Soomi were less than Daeji and Dowon. The mealy potatoes had higher starch contents, higher tendency to pectin solubilization, higher PG activities, lower calcium contents and less hardness than the soggy Potatoes.

The study is to observe the time trend variation in the blood lead concentration of Korean teenage groups and to examine the changes in the daily lead intake from intake amount(g) by food groups as an influencing factor. A total of 1,540 subjects are participants in the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) in 2011, 2012, 2014, 2016, and 2017. The blood lead concentrations were 1.25㎍/100ml in 2011 survey, 1.16㎍/100ml in 2012, 1.17㎍/100ml in 2013, 1.05㎍/100ml in 2016, and 0.84㎍/100ml in 2017. The time trend decrease in food intake amount appeared mainly in the plant food groups such as grains, potatoes and starch, pulses, mushrooms, vegetables, and fruits. And the milk and dairy products of the animal food group also showed a decreased trend. The decrease in the intake amount of these food groups can be an influencing factor in the decrease in lead concentration in the blood.

Total twenty cultivars of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) were grown at Gangneung where is located in low land of Korea. Their tubers were harvested from 100 to 120 days after planting, and over 150 g of tubers were selected for quality evaluation. Dry matter, starch, amylose in starch, ascorbic acid, protein, individual sugars and mineral were analyzed and mealiness of cooked potatoes were also evaluated by panel test. Dry mater content was the highest in 'Haryeong', 'Jayoung' and 'Shepody', and the biggest starch granules were observed in 'Jayoung' and 'Sinnamjak'. In addition, the content of amylose was highest in 'Haryeong', 'Chudong' and 'Goun'. Mineral content showed the slight difference between cultivars, but it's tendency was not clear. Vitamin C content was highest in 'Jayoung' as 62.5 $mg{\cdot}100g^{-1}$ FW, and 'Chugang' exhibited the highest content of protein. Sugar content was lower in cultivars for single one than double cropping. The lowest sugar content was observed in 'Atlantic' and 'Namseo' among cultivars for single cropping, and in 'Goun' for double cropping. As a result of analysis for quality factors, we could select nine cultivars ('Atlantic', 'Gahwang', 'Gawon', 'Goun', 'Hareong', 'Irish Cobbler', 'Jasim', 'Jayoung' and 'Shepody') with high dry matter content and low reducing sugar as a cultivar group for processing. Additionally, seven cultivars ('Chugang', 'Gawon', 'Goun', 'Hareong', 'Irish Cobbler', 'Jasim' and 'Seohong') with high mealiness and amylose content and five cultivars ('Atlantic', 'Chudong', 'Gahwang', 'Jopung' and 'Jowon') with low mealiness and amylose content were classified as groups for boiled or steam cooking and for soup or pot dishes, respectively.

Megagametophyte tissues of Pinus densiflora were subjected to study the inheritance of acid phosphatase (ACP), alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and catalase (CAT) isozymes by starch gel zone-electrophoresis. At least three or four zones were segregated for ACP isozyme. However, as one isozyme of ACP-A zone was separated clearly, only that isozyme was analysed. Five isozyme phenotypes (A1-A5), observed in ACP-A zone, were segregated to a simple Mendelian ratio, suggesting that these are controlled by five codominant alleles existed at ACP-A locus. Two zones of activity were segregated in the gels after staining for ADH, the more anodal zone (ADH-A) of the two was invariant in our materials. Three isozyme phenotypes (B1-B3) were observed in ADH-B zone and these variants showed a 1:1 segregation pattern, suggesting that each variant is controlled by three codominant alleles at ADH-B locus. A total of five isozyme phenotypes, composed of multiple bands, were observed in CAT isozyme. The segregation of these phenotypes in heterozygous trees did not show any significant deviation from a 1:1 segregation. Therefore, the genetic control of CAT isozyme in Pinus densiflora seeds seems to be based on a single locus (CAT-A) with Five codominant alleles ($A_1-A_5$).

Ohmic heating uses electric resistance heat which occurs equally and rapidly inside of food when electrical current is flown into. In other study, we researched about soybean protein's characteristic changes by ohmic heating. Nevertheless treated same temperature, denaturation of soybean protein were accelerated by ohmic heating than conventional heating. In this time, we studied thermal property change of potato starch by ohmic heating besides conventional heating. For this purpose, potato starch was heated at same subgelatinization temperature by ohmic and conventional heating. And thermal properties were tested using DSC. Annealing of starch is heat treatment method that heated at 3~4% below the gelatinization point. DSC analysis results of this study, the $T_o$, $T_p$, $T_c$ of potato starch levels were increased, whereas $T_c{\sim}T_o$ was narrowed. This thermal property changes appear similar to annealing's result. It is thought the results shown in this study, because the heating from below the gelatinization point. 6, 12, 24, 72, and 120 hours heating at $55^{\circ}C$ for potato starch, $T_o$, $T_p$, $T_c$ values continue to increased with heating time increase. The gelatinization temperature of raw potato starch was $65.9^{\circ}C$ and the treated starch by conventional heating at $55^{\circ}C$ for 120 hr was $72^{\circ}C$, ohmic was $76^{\circ}C$. The gelatinization range of conventional (72 hr) was $10^{\circ}C$, ohmic was $8^{\circ}C$. In case of 24 hours heating at 45, 50, 55, 60, $65^{\circ}C$ for potato starch, the result was similar to before. $T_o$, $T_p$, $T_c$ values continue to increased and gelatinization range narrowed with heating temperature increase. In case of conventional heating at $60^{\circ}C$, the results of gelatinization temperature and range were $70.1^{\circ}C$ and $9.1^{\circ}C$. And ohmic were $74.4^{\circ}C$ and $7.5^{\circ}C$. When viewed through the results of the above, the internal structure of starch heated by ohmic heating was found that the shift to a more stable form and to increase the homology of the starch internal structure.

This study was performed to investigate the effective components of media of Pleurotus eryngii for bottle cultivation and several alternative material for reducing cost and smooth supply. The results show that Potato starch, Cocoa shell, Corn gluten feed, Soybean flour(solvent extracted), Cottonseed hull, Poultry manure can be replaced in Bean curd dregs of basal substrates. Especially addition of Soybean flour at 2~8% and Poulty manure at 2% in place of Bean curd dregs is effective for mycelial growth of P. eryngii, Also Pine sawdust appears that can be replaced by Softwood sawdust and addition of softwood sawdust at 25.2% is most effective. Addition of $CaCO_3$, at 2~3%, $K_2CO_3$, at 0.2%, $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$ in 0.1%, $MnSO_4{\cdot}5H_2O$ in 0.05% is effective for mycelial growth of P. eryngii, Activation materials used in this study have not enough benefit for mycelial growth in the financial aspect.

Addition of starch syrup, table sugar, potato powder, skim milk powder an parched soybean powder to melon flesh was suitable as fermented melon base. The manufacturing process of fermented melon was as follows: Pasteurization for 10 min at $95^{\circ}C$, use of 1% starter culture, fermentation for 12 hours at $35^{\circ}C$ and ripening for 3 days at $8^{\circ}C$. The growth and acid production of Pediococcus acidilactici among several starter cultures were most active for the first 12 hours, but such activities were disappeared during ripening. In the case of Lactobacillus plantarum, the activities were not high during fermentation, which, however, increased during ripening. Throughout the whole manufacturing process, the fermented melon with a mixed culture of P. acidilactici and L. plantarum showed more cell number of each bacterium and higher titratable acidity than that with single cultures. Also P. acidilactici surpressed the growth of L. plantarum during ripening.

This study was carried out to diminish the formation of scale in boilers which is one of the defect elements when they are operating. The defect relating to scale can cause a fatal impact on the explosion of boilers due to the overheating of their tubes, or it can affect the flow of water inside boilers with its bad circulation and result in a disparity of water inside the equipment. Heat transfer in the scale is low comparing to the boiler material, so it can lead to energy losses and has also impact on the global warming. In 2005, the Korean government introduced a system which requires boiler users to install the equipment which can prevent or eliminate the formation of scale to improve the management of water quality in boilers. The study on the techniques for preventing or eliminating the formation of scale started in 1821 and since then subsequently there have been lots of similar studies. The first one was about the scale reduction using potato starch. Since an ultrasonic scale preventer developed by a scientist from a Russian acoustic institute was introduced in1993, a variety of equipment of this kind have been disseminated in Korea. There has been a need to demonstrate the condition for the best performances of such equipment. Boilers are mostly composed of the main body and 288 the tube with a circular curved surface. I carried out a demonstration study on a circular tube which affects the scale defect the most among the boiler components. As a result of it, I found out the fact that the ultrasonic wave needs to reach a certain level of sound pressure and frequency to affect the formation of scale.
