This study investigated the effects of silver diamine fluoride (SDF) and potassium iodide (KI) treatments on the acid resistance of dentin exposed to secondary caries. Sixteen bovine dentin specimens with artificially induced caries were assigned to the following four groups: untreated negative control, untreated positive control, SDF-treated (SDF), and SDF and KI-treated (SDFKI). Multispecies cariogenic biofilms containing Streptococcus mutans, Lactobacillus casei, and Candida albicans were cultured on the specimens for 28 days, except for the negative control group. Specimens from the negative control group were stored in phosphate-buffered saline for that period. After a cariogenic biofilm challenge, the degree of demineralization was evaluated using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). As a result of data analysis using micro-CT, the demineralization depths of the negative control, positive control, SDF, and SDFKI groups were 149.0 ± 7 ㎛, 392.0 ± 11 ㎛, 206.0 ± 20 ㎛, and 230.0 ± 31 ㎛, respectively. The degree of demineralization was significantly reduced in the SDF and SDFKI groups compared with that in the untreated positive control group. There were no significant differences between the SDF and SDFKI groups. This study confirmed that SDF and SDFKI treatments increase the acid resistance of dentin to secondary caries. KI did not significantly affect the caries-arresting effect of the SDF.

This experiment was carried out to elucidate the behavior of nutrition absorption and the acid tolerance, on varying soil pH levels, of Pinus thunbergii, Pinus densiflora, Pinus rigida, PInus koraiensis, Larix leptolepis and Abies holophylla which are 6 month old seedlings through examinations of the absorption behavior, the acid and alkali tolerance of N,P,K, Ca and Fe in the sand culture media with artificially controlled pH. 1. The increase rate of dry matter conditioned by the behavior of nutrition absorption in a strong acidic condition (pH3) was found in the following decreasing order of Pinus rigida, Pinus thunbergii. This order, therefore, can also be said to apply to the case of acid tolerance. 2. The increase rate of dry matter in a strong alkaline condition (pH9) was found in the following decreasing order of Pinus thunbergii, Pinus rigida, Pinus densiflora, Pinus koraiensis, Abies hoplohylla, Larix leptolepis. This order, therefore can be said to apply to the case of alkali tolerance. 3. Considering the absorption behavior of K and Ca, it is possible to decide the tolerance of acid from the absorption behavior and it can be said that if the absorption quantity is K>Ca the acid tolerance is strong and vice versa. 4. Considering the ratio of K:Fe and Ca:Fe in this experiment, a strong acid tolerance shows a higher ratio of K/Fe and vice versa. And also a strong acid tolerance shows a lower ratio of Ca/Fe and vice versa. It is therefore possible to decide the acid tolerance from the absorption behavior of K, Ca and Fe. 5. Of the tree species subjected to this experiment, Pinus thunbergii was the strongest in both acid and alkali tolerance. 6. In spite of that in all species the dry weight in the root is smailer than that in the top, the quantity of Fe contained in the root was larger than that in the top.

The Leuconostoc paramesenteroides dominated at refrigeration temperature range was isolated from kimchi, and improved its growth properties by mutation for competitive growth against Lactobacillus plantarum at lower pH. It was found that the minimal pH for the wild type Leuconostoc paramesenteroides Pw growth was pH 4.5 adjusted with HCI and pH 5.0 adjusted with organic-mixture (lactic acid:acetic acid=1:2), respectively. The mutant P-100 could grow in pH 4.0, 4.5, respectively, in MRS broth. Two strains Pw and P-100 were added into kimchi as starter and compared the quality characteristics of kimchi. The total acceptability of Pw and P-100 inoculated kimchi were evaluated better than that of control kimchi (no starter added) by sensory test and extended the optimal pH range of kimchi up to about 2.2, 2.5 times, respectively. In kimchi added P-100, the succinic acid was more abundant than others and the total number of Lactobacillus plantarum was down about 2.5 times in contrast to control kimchi.

Fourteen strains out of fifty six strains of lactic acid bacteria isolated from Kimchi showed a resistance to artificial gastric juice. In particular, lactobacilli AK 3, AK 7, BK 28, and DK 37 showed a strong resistance and their viable cell counts of the initial stage were no change after the 2 hours cultivation in an artificial gastric juice. All five lactic acid bacteria were used as starters in producing yogurts. The physicochemical characteristics of yogurts were examined. The original pH, titratable acidity, visicosity and viable cell counts of yogurts were $3.78{\sim}4.32,\;0.96{\sim}1.41%,\;1,659{\sim}2,348\;cps\;and\;1.1{\times}10^9{\sim}2.1{\times}10^9cfu/mL$, respectively. The ${\beta}-galactosidase$ activity reached maximum at 48 hr, and reduced gradually during incubation.

Ni기 초내열합금을 사용하는 터빈엔진의 효율향상 및 다양한 초고온함금에 대한 관심이 높아지면서, 이를 대체할 수 있는 초고온합금으로 Mo기지 복합재료에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있는 가운데 실질적으로 Mo 합금은 취약한 산화성으로 인하여 내산화성이 문제가 되고 있다. Mo-Si-B합금이 초고온에 노출될 경우 산화물의 점도가 매우 낮아 산화층을 형성하기 곤란하고, 저온에서는 산화층이 합금을 보호하지 못한다고 알려져 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 Mo-Si-B 합금기지에 Si 확산코팅을 수행하여 내산화성을 높이고자 하였다. $1,100^{\circ}C$와 $800^{\circ}C$의 온도에서 시간에 따른 코팅 층의 두께 및 성장거동을 속도론적으로 고찰하였고, 내산화성을 평가하였다. 코팅된 시험편의 XRD 및 SEM 분석 및 무게측정 결과 내산화성이 크게 개선된 것으로 나타났으며, 내산화성에 대한 기구를 고찰하였다.

본 연구는 생균제로 이용할 수 있는 균주개발을 목적으로 돈분에서 성장능력과 내산성이 우수한 Candida sp. 를 분리하였고, API kit를 이용하여 동정하였을 때 Candida utilis로 확인되었다. Candida utilis는 cellulase, phytase활성이 높은 것으로 관찰되었으며, PDB배지에서 18시간 배양시 $6.5{\times}109\;cfu/ml$로 최대로 성장하는 것으로 나타났다. 또, pH 1.5에서도 약 22%의 미생물수($1.34{\times}107\;cfu/ml$)가 잔존하여, 내산성이 강한 것으로 나타났다. 또, $60^{\circ}C$이상의 고온에서는 사멸하였으나 정상적인 생체온도에서는 열 안전성이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과로부터 분리한 Candida utilis는 생균제 및 단세포단백질 생산에 충분히 이용가치가 있는 것으로 확인되었다.
