Effects of the addition of single or blends of konjac flour (KF), carrageenan (CN), and soy protein isolate (SPI) into the sausage formulation were determined based on the physico-chemical and textural characteristics of low-fat comminuted sausage (LFS, fat <3%). LFSs had a pH range of 6.10 to 6.16, 77-79% moisture, <3% fat, and 13-15% protein contents, whereas regular-fat sausages (RFSs) had a pH value of 6.11, 62.5% moisture, 19.4% fat, and 11.9% protein. LFSs containing fat replacers were reduced (P<0.05) cooking loss (CL, %). KF alone or mixed with other hydrocolloids slightly improved the water-holding capacity, whereas CN increased (P<0.05) the gel strength, resulting in higher hardness values. Replacement of 6% lean meat with 1.5% SPI alone increased (P<0.05) yellowness (Hunter b value) and expressible moisture (EM, %). TPA values of KF+CN+SPI were the most similar to those of RFSs. These results indicated that triple addition of KF, CN and SPI at the ratio of 1 : 1 : 3 in LFS formulation improved functional properties, as compared to the low-fat control, and had textural characteristics most similar to those with RFSs.

정수공정은 "원수 -1 침사지 1 전염소 -1 전오존 -1 침전지 1 여과지 1 후오존 1 GAC 4 후염소 1 가정수"로 이루어져 있으며 전처리 공정으로 염 소와 오존을 주입하게 되는데, 여기서 전염소 처리 공정으로 인해 잔류 유리염 소가 수중의 유기물질과 반웅하여 유해성 유기염소 화합물 (i.e.. Trihalomethane, Haloacetonitriles, Chlorophenol 등)을 생성하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이러한 이유로 고도 정수처리 공정에서는 강한 산화력을 지닌 대체 산화 제로서 오존을 이용하고 있다. 전오존 처리공정은 OOC와 탁도 제거에 있어 응 집제 주입량을 감소시키는 것과 더불어 전오존 효과 (산화, 생분해 증대, 살균 등)를 얻을 수 있는 것으로 알려져 왔다. 그러나 낙동강과 같이 유기물이 많은 원수에 과다한 오존이 주입되면 수중 의 유기물이 저분자화 또는 응집이 어려운 오존 산화물로 변화하여 응집제의 소비가 많아지게 된다. 실제, 오존을 응집 효과에 대해서 pilot plant로 운전한 결과 전오존에 의해 입자성 물질의 제거 효율은 향상된 반면에 유기물 제거는 뚜렷한 효과를 볼 수 없었다고 보고되었다 (류, 1997). 본 연구에서는 물금 지역의 원수와 응집-침전 공정까지 거치는 각각의 처 리수에 대해서 전처리가 응집에 미치는 영향을 천연유기물질 (NOM)의 조성 변화로 파악하였다. 그 방법으로 천연유기물질 (NOM)을 XAD-1, -4 수지를 이 용하여 소수성 물질 (hydrophobic components)과 친수성 물질 (hydrophilic components)로 분리 및 농축하여 용존 유기물이 처리 과정에서 어떻게 변화하 는지를 조사하여 개선된 상수 처리 시스템을 설계하는데 기초 자료를 제공하고 수질 관리 분야에서도 적용하고자 하였다. 상수원수인 물금 지역의 소수성 물질(hydrophobic components)은 75~80%, 친수성 물질(hydrophilic components)은 30~33%정도의 분포를 보였고, 전염소 및 전오존 공정을 거친 처리수에서는 각각 62.2-62.8%, 43.9~49.0% 및 50~ 55%, 40~57% 정도의 분포를 보였다. 그리고 웅집-침전을 거친 처리수에서는 그 분포가 77~82%, 24-48%였다. 전주리 공정을 통하여 소수성 물질(byoghobic components)의 분포가 감 소하는 것을 볼 때 전염소 및 전오존 처리가 용존유기물의 응집에는 오히려 역 효과를 나타내는 것으로 판단된다. 것으로 판단된다.

ETA (ethanolamine), a pH control agent, has been used as an ammonia substitute in the secondary system of nuclear power plants since 2001. It is impossible to remove ETA from the wastewater treatment system in the nuclear power plant operating currently, because it is the non-biodegradable organics in terms of the environmental. The optimum process and chemicals for the removal of chemical oxygen demand (COD) & N with the field sample were investigated. More than 95% of Ammonium ions, contained much in wastewater, was removed with a diffused aeration system. COD could be removed over 90% through the process that includes the oxidation with mixed peroxidants (sodium persulfate/sodium percarbonate) followed by the physicochemical treatment with coagulants.

In the coagulation/sedimentation (C/S) process of the water treatment process, the inflow of massive algal bloom causes many problems including fouling of filter media. This study was conducted to find out the way to remove the algae's harmful effects by addition of pre-treatment prior to C/S process. Many Jar-tests were conducted such as (1) ACF (Algae Coagulation Flotation) process using natural algae coagulant (Water $Health^{(R)}$), (2) ACF + C/S process and (3) C/S process with a variety of conditions using cultured algae. The average values of turbidity were (1) 0.42 NTU for ACF process, (2) 0.13 NTU for ACF + C/S process and (3) 0.25 NTU for C/S process. It was shown that the treatment efficiency of ACF process could get low turbidity results, and ACF + C/S process could achieve more efficient results than those of C/S process. Any negative effects of ACF process to the efficiency of C/S process were not observed in ACF + C/S process. In order to reduce the unfavorable effects of algae, it was found out that the introduction of ACF process in the forms of (1) ACF or (2) ACF + C/S could be one of the effective and alternative solutions.

As the regulation of total phosphorus (T-P) concentration in biologically treated sewage effluent is reduced to 0.2~2 mg/L, flocculation process is recommended to remove T-P. In this study, the performance of Ti-salt coagulant was investigated in terms of dosage and pH in removing phosphorus and the collected sludge after Ti-salt flocculation was calcined to produce titania for effective sludge recycling. The flocculation performance was carried out using two methods: sedimentation and air floatation. Both methods were feasible to apply for Ti-salt flocculation. Ti-salt flocculation was effective in reducing phosphorus concentration in sewage effluent, which showed similar performance of alum ($Al_2(SO_4)_3$). The calcined sludge was recycled to titania which is the widely used metal oxide. Titania produed from Ti-salt sludge indicated similar characteristics of commercially-available P-25 in regard to photocatalytic activity and surface area. Therefore, this can be easily adopted to titania application by replacing P-25.

Noodles were made from composite flours based on barley or sweet potato/wheat flour and their quality was assessed to obtain the following results. 1) In noodle sheet and dried noodle formation, barley flour could substitute 100% and sweet potato flour, 70% of wheat flour and their textural characteristics were improved by addition of glyceryl monostearate and sodium polycrylate. 2) Textural parameters such as hardness, cohesiveness and gumminess of noodle sheet and dried noodle were decreased by admixture of barley of sweet potato flour whereas they were increased by use of the additives. Noodle sheet required hardness over 6.2 and gumminess over 430 while dried noodle needed hardness over 6.8. 3) In cooked noodle, replacement of wheat flour and use of additives tended to lower the textural parameters. With respect to the cooking quality, barley flour could substitute 60% and sweet potato flour, 40% of wheat flour. 4) In organoleptic evaluation of cooked noodle with respect to its color, taste and texture, 20% replaced composite flour was not different significantly at 5% level from wheat flour and the quality defect was mainly due to discoloration of the product.

For the development of the chitosan industry in Korea, the catch of red snow crabs caught on the east coast is rapidly decreasing. Therefore, it is urgent to develop raw materials that can replace the red snow crab as the top priority to solve the supply and demand problems, as well as wastewater treatment costs account for a large proportion of the cost of chitosan. In order to solve the problems, continuous research on biological extraction methods such as enzymatic extraction and microbial fermentation will increase production efficiency and lower unit cost as well as chemical extraction methods. Further efficient manufacturing method can be established. Establishing of novel techniques is indispensable for production of high-purity chitosan and the ability to regulate and separate the molecular weight, as well as joint research with industry, academia and research institute for the research and development of high-functional chitosan derivatives.

Yacon syrup, which contains fructooligosaccharides (FOS), was used as a substitute for sugar to make functional healthy sponge cake. Regarding characteristics of sponge cake with various yacon syrup concentrations, height and volume decreased while moisture content increased with increasing yacon syrup concentration. Sponge cake with increasing yacon syrup content showed a greater green-yellowish color. Springiness, cohesiveness, hardness, and brittleness decreased with increasing yacon syrup concentration. Hardness values of cakes made with 100% sugar (YS 0) and yacon syrup substitute for 10% sugar (YS 10) were not significantly different. Overall acceptance of sponge cake decreased with increasing yacon syrup content, whereas those of YS 0 and YS 10 were not significantly different. For storage period, moisture content of sponge cake with increasing yacon syrup concentration decreased during storage, whereas the decreasing moisture content was less than that of YS 0. The color of sponge cake with various yacon syrup concentrations did not change significantly during storage. Springiness and cohesiveness decreased during storage. Hardness increased with storage period, whereas that of sponge cake made with yacon syrup was lower than that of YS 0. In conclusion, sponge cake made with YS 10 is the best to make sponge cake with high consumer acceptance, reduced sugar content, and FOS.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Anti-Thrombotic Activities and Cardiovascular Improvement of Fermented Garlic Extracts. The incidence of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) is increasing rapidly in developed countries, with CVDs now representing the leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Natural products and ethnomedicines have been shown to reduce the risk of CVDs. Garlic is a medicinal plant used throughout the world for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antiplatelet activities. We hypothesized that fermented preparations of these products may possess stronger antiplatelet effects than the non-fermented forms owing to the increased bioavailability of the bioactive compounds produced during fermentation. Therefore, we compared these compounds via in vitro and ex vivo platelet aggregation assays by using standard light transmission aggregometry and ex vivo granule secretions from rat platelets. We found that fermented preparations exerted more potent and significant inhibition of platelet aggregation both in vitro and ex vivo. Likewise, ATP release from dense granules of platelets was also significantly inhibited in fermented preparation-treated rat platelets compared to that in non-fermented preparation-treated ones. We concluded that fermented preparations exerted more potent effects on platelet function both in vitro and ex vivo, possibly as a result of the increased bioavailability of active compounds produced during fermentation. We therefore suggest that fermented products may be potent therapeutics against platelet-related CVDs and can be used as antiplatelet and antithrombotic agents.
