Differences in the number of Platypus koryoensis (Murayama) (Coleoptera: Platypodidae) trapped in different trap types, colors and positions on the trunk were evaluated to develop a monitoring trap for Platypus koryoensis, a known vector of Korean oak wilt disease. The experiments were conducted in an oak forest located in Gwangtan-myeon, Paju-si, Gyeonggi-do, Korea using two types of trap: sticky trap and multi-funnel trap. Trapping efficiency of the two trap types was not significantly different. Trapping efficiency of the sticky trap was not affected by four trap colors: yellow, black, white and transparent. The number of beetle caught was higher in the traps facing the upper slope than the lower slope regardress of trap type. Our results showed that both traps type are useful for monitoring Platypus koryoensis.

The matured female and male of A. signifer differed in external morphology and body color. There were significant differences in PAD, PAB, PMP and PQR between matured female and male. Green color was very widely distributed in whole as nuptial color, that is similar to green and cyan color in the body part, yellow color in the ventral part and red and yellow color in the tail part. The nuptial organ of A. signifer was formed in a cluster on the horny substance of both sides above the mouth. There were 25~30 nuptial organs in a side. The nuptial organs disappeared with crumbling down from middle part of nuptial organ after spawning period. The nuptial organs disappeared mostly in September as non spawning period and a part of the nuptial organs remained as a vestige in the edges of both sides.

These experiments were carried out to study the factors affecting quality and textural characteristics in the preparation of artificial gluten meat (AGM). Effects of amounts of ingredients on properties of AGM were summarized as follows: 1. The more amounts of water increased, the higher L and b values became, and AGM, therefore, became bright and yellow in color. The more increased the amount of water, the more decreased shear force, hardness and chewiness, but the water holding capacity increased. The 100% of water added sample approached to raw beef in L value, $\Delta$0E, hardness and chewiness. 2. The mixing ratio of walunt and com oil more affected on color than on texture, and the proper ratio was 30% of walunt and 10% of oil. 3. In the case of interactions of oil and water, water amounts affected more on color, shear force, chewiness and the water holding capacity than on oil. AGM mixed with the ratio of 10% of oil and 100% of water approached to raw beef.

TLC condition was developed for its simple separation and quantitative analysis of lactic acid. Rapid and clear separation of lactic acid by silica gel TLC plate was obtained by using nitromethane : 1-propanol : $H_2O$ (2 : 5 : 1.5, v/v/v) and a suitable dipping solution of 40 mg bromocresol purple in 100 mL 5% ethanol (pH 10.0). The lactic acid was shown as a bright yellow spot on a light cinnabar background. The quantitatively detectable concentration range of lactic acid was between 0.5 and 4% with 99.4%, confidence. Quantitative TLC analysis result was confirmed with HPLC and with enzymatic Quantitative analysis methods (by using lactate dehydrogenase).

Two strains, each of Tremella fuciformis and Hypoxylon sp. were isolated and their mycelial properties were investigated. T. fuciformis produced yeast-like conidia and dikaryotic mycelia from white to yellow color. The diameter of the hyphae was $1.5\;to\;3.0\;{\mu}m$, and septa with clamp connections were present. Secondary mycelia with clamp connections could produce fruitbodies on sawdust medium when the environmental conditions were suitable for fructification. The symbiotic fungus, Hypoxylon sp. produced white feather-like mycelia. But the color of old mycelia was changed to light yellow or light brown and pigmented the culture medium from light brown to brown or very dark green. Generally it did not produce conidia, but in a special case it produced conidia of which color was yellow green to grass green and of which shape was sub-elliptical with the size of approximately $3\;to\;5\;{\mu}m$.

The purpose of this study is to assess a fire-damaged concrete structure using a digital camera and image processing software. To simulate it, mortar and paste samples of W/C=0.5(general strength) and 0.3(high strength) were put into an electric furnace and simulated from $100^{\circ}C$ to $1000^{\circ}C$. Here, the paste was processed into a powder to measure CIELAB chromaticity, and the samples were taken with a digital camera. The RGB chromaticity was measured by color intensity analyzer software. As a result, the residual compressive strength of W/C=0.5 and 0.3 was 87.2 % and 86.7 % at the heating temperature of $400^{\circ}C$. However there was a sudden decrease in strength at the temperature above $500^{\circ}C$, while the residual compressive strength of W/C=0.5 and 0.3 was 55.2 % and 51.9 % of residual strength. At the temperature $700^{\circ}C$ or higher, W/C=0.5 and W/C=0.3 show 26.3% and 27.8% of residual strength, so that the durability of the structure could not be secured. The results of $L^*a^*b$ color analysis show that $b^*$ increases rapidly after $700^{\circ}C$. It is analyzed that the intensity of yellow becomes strong after $700^{\circ}C$. Further, the RGB analysis found that the histogram kurtosis and frequency of Red and Green increases after $700^{\circ}C$. It is analyzed that number of Red and Green pixels are increased. Therefore, it is deemed possible to estimate the degree of damage by checking the change in yellow($b^*$ or R+G) when analyzing the chromaticity of the fire-damaged concrete structures.

The objective of this study was to investigate the content of phenolic compounds and their contribution to antioxidant activity in the seed coats, dehulled and whole black and yellow soybeans. The total phenolic and total anthocyanin contents were analyzed. FRAP, DPPH and ABTS assays were carried out to determine the antioxidant activities. The 100-seed weight and color values were also analyzed. Black seed coats had significantly greater total phenolic and total anthocyanin contents as compared to whole beans, dehulled beans, and yellow seed coats. Moreover, black seed coats exhibited the highest antioxidant activity among the samples, regardless of the utilized method. The antioxidant activities determined in all assays positively correlated with the total phenolic ($0.980{\leq}r{\leq}0.991$) and anthocyanin contents ($0.990{\leq}r{\leq}0.997$) as well as among themselves ($0.992{\leq}r{\leq}0.996$). It is anticipated that the information generated from this study will help support the development of soybean products for improving health.

Pyropia yezoensis is one of the most extensively cultivated seaweeds used as food in Korea. However, the quality and yield of Pyropia farms are frequently affected by outbreaks of thallus discoloration. The objective of this study was to develop a simple and rapid method to evaluate P. yezoensis discoloration caused by nutrient deficiencies. A colorimeter was used to quantify the color of P. yezoensis in nutrient deficient media over 10 days. Quantitative values of lightness (L), redness (a), and yellowness (b) measured with a colorimeter were used as indicators of P. yezoensis discoloration. The vacuoles of P. yezoensis were observed at 4 days and swelled gradually from 6 days onward. The three colorimeter parameters L, a, and b values showed significantly different values with culture period. The lightness (L) value was darker initially, and continued to lighten over culture period. The yellowness (b) value increased, but the redness (a) value decreased throughout this study. The a/b ratio and redness (a) values from the colorimeter were important P. yezoensis color change indicators. The discoloration group of P. yezoensis had quantitative values for parameters of L above 70, a below 2.6, and b above 15.0. The results of this study showed that quantitative colorimetric measurements can be used as tools for simple and rapid detection of P. yezoensis discoloration.
