Twenty-four major ecological and physiolosical characters of the 54 accessions of taro(Colocasia antiquorum) were observed in the growing seasons of 1995 and 1996 in $Ch{\breve{o}}nju$, Korea. The average days to emergence of the 54 accessions were 21.7 and the accession which had the shortest days to emergence was Kurye #2. Petiole color of most accessions was green, except $Ich{\breve{o}}n$ #1, Iri #1, Puan #1 and Taiwan #1 which had purple petioles. All the accessions had cormels except Taiwan #1 which had long runners without cormels. Average yield of the accessions was 3,719 kg/10a and total carmel weight, average carmel number, average carmel and average corm weight were 787g/plant, 39.2/plant, 20.3g/cormel, and 263.6g/plant, respectively. Accessions $Ch{\breve{o}}ngju$ #1 and Wanju #1 showed superiority in the three important characters, total carmel weight/plant, average carmel weight, and corm weight. Multivariate analysis for the 24 characters indicated that petiole color and carmel type had relatively higher coefficient of variation, 56.8 and 44.4 %, respectively. Fifty four taro accessions could be classified into 11 groups with D(${\sqrt{D^{2}}$) value of 110 on the basis of phenotypical characteristics. Most accessions were inclued in Group II. The Group I in which Taiwan #1 was included was genetically the most distant from the other groups. Accessions with purple petioles were grouped into the three different subgroups in which green petiole accessions were not included, indicating high dissimilarity between the different petiole color accessions. All the accessions grouped into the Group VIII, $Ch{\breve{o}}ngju$ #1, Wanju #1, Wanju #3, and $Taech{\breve{o}}n$ #2, had higher bioogical yield. Some accessions collected from the same district showed a high dissimilarity by being classified into the different subgroups.

Vibrio vulnificus is a recently recognized halophilic organism that nay cause serious human infections. Patients infected with V. vulnificus often have a history of exposure to the sea, suggesting that the organism may be common inhabitant of marine environment. The purpose of this experiment is to investigate the distribution and bacteriological characteristics of V. vulnificus. The strain used in this experiment was isolated from sea water and sea products such as common octopus (Octopus variabilis), ark shell (Anadara broughtonii), blue crab (Ericheir japonica), and sea squirt (Synthia roretzi) collected in Pusan area from July to October in 1985. V. vulnificus was frequently isolated in August when temperature of sea water was around $26^{\circ}C$ and rarely isolated in October when temperature of sea water was around $18.5^{\circ}C$. The distinctive biochemical characteristics of V. vulnificus were ONPG hydrolysis positive and fermented lactose and not grown in peptone water contained $8\%$ NaCl. The optical density at 660 nm of the growth of V. vulnificus was reached maximum level after 8 hours of culture at $35^{\circ}C$ in brain heart infusion broth but that of V. vulnificus was little increased at $15^{\circ}C$ for 14 hours. Optimum temperature and pH for the growth of V. vulnificus were around $35^{\circ}C$ and 8.0. The specific growth rate and the generation time of V. vulnificus isolated from the samples were $1.21\;hr^{-1}$, 34 min at $35^{\circ}C$ and $0.61\;hr^{-1}$, 69 min at $25^{\circ}C$, respectively. V. vulnificus did not grow on eosin-methylene-blue agar, salmonella-shigella agar, deoxycholate agar but grew well on Endo agar, xylose-lysine-deoxycholate agar and hektoen enteric agar. On Endo agar, the colonies of V. vulnificus were red and achieved a diameter of 2 to 4 mm as a feature enabling differentiation of V. vulnificus from other Vibrio spp. V. vulnificus grow well on TCBS agar forming green colonies. V. vulnificus refrigerated at $4^{\circ}C$ exhibited a linear decline of its viablity as 1 log cycle in every 16 hours storage, while V. vulnificus freezed at $-18^{\circ}C$ almost became extinct.

These studies were carried out to investigate the quality of green tea processed by different 1st-pan-firing time and to select the best conditions of green tea processing. The results were as follows. At harvesting tea plant leaf, tea plants had 4 leaves, each leaf size was $6.4cm\;{\times}\;2.4cm$, and weight of 100 buds was 40.2g. The content of moisture of green tea was decreased with the prolongation of 1st-pan-firing time, and the yield of green tea at 10 min. pan-firing time was the highest value of 20.12%. After processing green tea, 1st 10 min. pan-fired one had much more contents of total nitrogen(TN 5.41%) and total amino acid(T.A.A; 3,282mg/100g) and less content of tannin(13.22%) and caffeine(1.64%) than the other treatments. The content of chlorophyll and vitamin C went down with the extension of 1st pan-firing period. Sixteen kinds of free amino acid including theanine as a good taste component of green tea were isolated and measured by HPLC. T.A.A contents were in the range of $2,447{\sim}3,192mg/100g$ and among various pan-firing methods, 10 min. 1st pan-fired one had the highest content of T.A.A. The taste-determinants such as theanine, aspartic acid, serine, glutamic acid and arginine in green tea liquor, occupied as much as $89.4{\sim}90.0%$ of T.A.A.s. Among these, theanine was more than 50%, Lightness and yellowness of green tea were increased with delay of pan-firing time, while green color appeared to be more distinct at 10 min. 1st pan -firing time than other treatments. Besides, it gained the highest score of sensory evaluation among them. These above results suggested that 10 min. pan-fired green tea was considered to be the best level as pan-firing time of green tea processing.

This study was to compare the geological occurrences and geneses of the Myogi, Tsukinuno, Dobuyama and Kawasaki bentonite deposits distributed in the Tertiary sedimentary basins of NE Japan, and to compare the mineralogical and physicochemical properties of their bentonites. The Japanese bentonite deposits are mainly distributed in the Green-tuff region which was formed in Neogene. The shape of ore body of the Myogi, Tsukinuno and Kawasaki deposits formed by the diagenesis are layered and stratiform. In contrast to this, the Dobuyama deposit formed by hydrothermal alteration shows the cone shape. The mineralization age of four deposits are 1.8 ～ 21 Ha from Early Miocene to Pliocene. The Dobuyama bentonite with the highest montmorillonite content shows the highest surface area, CEC, MB adsorption, and strengths. The Tsukinuno bentonite with a little high montmorillonite content is characterized by strong alkalinity, high viscosity and swelling. The Kawasaki bentonite, the Na-Ca mixed type, shows higher viscosity and swelling than the Ca-type Dobuyama bentonite. The Myogi bentonite with the lowest montmorillonite content shows the properties of low viscosity, In adsorption, strengths and a little high CEC and surface area. The high CEC and surface area of this deposit is due to the sufficient occurrence of zeolite. A strong dispersion in the Na-type bentonite and a strong flocculation in the Ca-type bentonite took place, and both the types show a slow flocculation with time. The physicochemical properties of the bentonite are mainly controlled by the montmorillonite content, interlayer cations, and impurity minerals such as zeolite. But bentonites inconsistent to this factors are sometimes occurred. This is maybe due to the crystal chemistry such as layer charge of montmorillonite and crystal morphology of montmorillonite such as aspect ratio.

This study examined the adhesiveness of beneficial intestinal bacteria to whole-grains using confocal scanning laser microscopy (CLSM), to demonstrate the prebiotic effects of whole-grains, and to develop prebiotic puffed snacks with these whole-grains. CLSM has been used to observe the adhesiveness of Lactobacillus acidophilus, which belongs to beneficial intestinal bacteria, to whole-grain powders using optical sectioning techniques. The enhanced effects on the growth of beneficial intestinal bacteria with the hot water grain extract were verified using an indirect count method. Finally, a puffed snack was produced with the prebiotic effect and the quality was evaluated by checking the chromaticity and degree of hardness. As a result, L. acidophilus exhibited adhesive ability to whole-grain powders and growth of selected beneficial intestinal bacteria were improved significantly. The Hunter L value of the developed puffed snack increased when seasoning was added. The hardness of the puffed snack with seasoning was higher than that of the control. The results of a sensory evaluation showed that the puffed snack with seasoning was highly rated in the overall preference compared to the control.

This study was conducted to investigate the quality characteristics of noodles prepared with the addition of nanofiltered (NF) powder of sunmul. Noodles were prepared with different levels $(0\%,\;1.5\%,\;3\%\;and\;5\%,\;w/w)$ of NF powder and physico-chemical properties were examined. Results of rapid visco analyzer showed that peak, trough, final viscosity and set back decreased as the NF powder level increased. The weight and volume of cooked noodles increased with the addition of NF powder. Turbidity of soup also increased as the amount of NF powder increased, indicating higher cooking loss. The color of wet and cooked noodles became greenish yellow as the NF powder level increased. Hardness, springiness, gumminess and brittleness of cooked noodles decreased with the increasing amount of NF powder. Results of sensory evaluation showed that noodles prepared with up to $3\%$ addition of NF powder was considered to be as acceptable as noodles prepared without NF powder.

The juice of garlic (Euichun variety) was extracted and concentrated by heating at 90$^{\circ}C$, by using a rotary vacuum evaporator at 45$^{\circ}C$, or by freezing at -50$^{\circ}C$ until the volume was reduced to 70% of the original's. The concentrated garlic juice was packed into 15 ml test tubes wrapped with aluminum foil and kept at 4$^{\circ}C$ or 25$^{\circ}C$ for 60 days. Changes of browning, microbiological and sensory characteristics of the concentrated garlic juices were monitored every 10 days. The specific gravity and viscosity of the prepared juices decreased in the juices concentrated at 90$^{\circ}C$, 45$^{\circ}C$ and -50$^{\circ}C$ in order. Browning of the concentrated garlic juices was slower during the storage at 4$^{\circ}C$ than at 25$^{\circ}C$. Browning occurred rapidly in the juice concentrated at 45$^{\circ}C$ during the storage, especially at 25$^{\circ}C$. The numbers of mesophilic and psychrotrophic bacteria in the juices did not increase significantly during the storage, which means the garlic juices had good shelf-life. The CFUs/ml of garlic juice concentrated at 90$^{\circ}C$ were lower about 1 to 2 log cycles than those in other concentrated juices. The juice concentrated at 90$^{\circ}C$ showed the weakest garlic odor and the strongest cooked odor among the juices. The juice concentrated at -50$^{\circ}C$ had the freshest odor, especially stored at 4$^{\circ}C$, but the juice concentrated at 90$^{\circ}C$ had lowest score in fresh odor. Brown color was dark in the juice concentrated at 45$^{\circ}C$ and green color of all the juices did not change significantly during the storage.
