Physicochemical properties and fatty acid composition of 12 randomly selected Korean margarines were determined, which were stored within one month since manufactured. Average moisture and fat contents of margarines were 15.09% ana 77.92% respectively. Melting point was ranged from 33.23$^{\circ}C$ to 42. 13$^{\circ}C$. Acid value and peroxide value were very low. iodine value was ranging from 59.65 to 86. 05. As a result of cluster analysis using the data of fatty acid composition, margarines divided into two groups according to their package condition, soft and hard type, were also classified into the same two groups. This probably implies that the raw materials of margarines between two groups were not the same. O1eic acid (18:1) and palmitic acid (16:0) in soft and hard type margarines respectively were the highest. Linoleic acid (18 : 2) contents showed large differences among margarines. Most of the margarines had little linolenic acid (18:3) . Generally essential fatty acid contents of Korean margarines were higher than those of the past but they didn't reach the levels of margarines made in some foreign countries.

The species composition of plankton is essential to understand the material and energy cycling within marine ecosystem. It also provides the useful information for understanding the properties of marine environments due to its sensitivity to the physicochemical characteristics and variability of water masses. In this study we adopted metagenomics to evaluate eukaryotic plankton species diversity from coastal waters off Busan. Characteristics of water masses at sampling sites is expected to be very complex due to the mixing of various water masses; Nakdong River runoff, Changjiang diluted water (CDW), South Sea coastal water, and Tsushima warm current. 18S rDNA clone libraries were constructed from surface waters at the three sites off Busan. Clone libraries revealed 94 unique phylotypes from 370 clones; Dinophyceae(42 phylotypes), Ciliophora(15 phylotypes), Bacillariophyta(7 phylotypes), Chlorophyta(2 phylotypes), Haptophyceae(1 phylotype), Metazoa(Arthropoda( 17 phylotypes), Chaetognatha(1 phylotypes), Cnidaria(2 phylotypes), Chordata(1 phylotype)), Rhizaria (Acantharea(2 phylotypes), Polycystinea(1 phylotype)), Telonemida(1 phylotype), Fungi(2 phylotypes). The difference in species diversity at the closely located three sites off Busan may be attributed to the various physicochemical properties of water masses at these sites by the mixture of water masses of various origins. Metagenomic study of species composition may provide useful information for understanding marine ecosystem of coastal waters with various physicochemical properties in the near feature.

The effect of physical and chemical treatments to reduce staphylococcal phages was investigated. To determine impact of physical treatment on viability of phages, two staphylococcal phages (SAP84 and SAP89) were treated with multiple heat ($55^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$) and pH (pH4, 7, 10) conditions. Viability of SAP 84 was dramatically reduced at 60C and SAP 89 was completely inactivated at 60C within 25 min. Overall, the two phages were stable under all the pH conditions tested except for the SAP 89 at pH 10. Treatments, a 10% FAS (Ferrous Ammonium Sulfate) solution and various density of ethanol and sodium hypochlorite were used to reduce the two phages. SAP 84 was unstable in 50% and 70% ethanol. However, SAP 84 and SAP 89 showed high tolerance after exposure to 100 ppm of sodium hypochlorite which is known as an effective sterilizer. As soon as the two phages were treated with 10% FAS, which is used as a virucidal agent, they were inactivated and did not form any plaque. The result of this study provides additional evidence that staphylococcal phages can be controlled by various physicochemical treatments.

뼈 결정과 같이 결정도가 낮은 탄산 인회석 결정의 화학조성 및 구조는 순수 수산화인회석 과 물리적 및 화학적 성질에 있어서 매우 다르다. 극미세 결정으로 결정도가 매우 낮은 불완전 결정이며, 결정 표면은 매우 반응성이 높은 이온으로 구성되어 있어 유기분자나 세포와 활발히 반응할 수 있다. 이와 같은 뼈 결정의 특성을 고형 기질 표면에 불완전 결정도 인회석 박막을 형성시켜 생체재료에 재현하였다. 이 박막에는 뼈세포들이 잘 부착하였는데 특히 골모세포의 부착, 증식, 분화를 촉진하여 장차 이와 같은 뼈 탄산 인회석의 특성을 갖는 인회석을 생체이식 재료로 이용하므로써 우리 몸의 생리에 좀 더 가까운 인공 매식체를 개발할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Physical characteristics of a magneto-rheological(MR) fluid can be influenced by a magnetic field. MR fluid is a suspension of micrometer-sized magnetic particles in a base liquid such as oil. Therefore, the key issue is dispersion stability because density of micrometer-sized magnetic particles are different from that of oil. In the present study, dispersion stability and physical characteristics along chemical compositions of MR fluid are investigated. 216 kinds of MR fluids are made by using magnetic powder(#2), surfactant(#2), base oil(#2), functional additive(#3), density(#3) and viscosity(#3). From experimental results, SEM photograph, magnetic flux density, supernatant and sediment of 216 kinds of MR fluids are obtained.

Physicochemical and sensory characteristics of soybean sprouts from domestic and foreign soybean cultivars were investigated. 100-seed weights of domestic cultivars were much larger than that of Canadian cultivar and recommended cultivars were larger than traditional cultivars. Water absorption of soybeans increased sharply to initial 6 hrs during steeping, and did not change much thereafter. In all soybean cultivars 16 amino acids were detected and the contents of Asp, Glu, Lys and Arg were more than 50% of total amino acid contents. All soybean cultivars showed some difference in composition of fatty acids and the content of linoleic acid was highest. The contents of K and P were high and those of Fe and Zn were low. The compression force of hypocotyl after cultivation was the highest in Eunha and the lowest in Junjeori and the compression force of cotyledon was the highest in Danyeop and the lowest in Canadian cultivar. Qualitative discription analysis for cooked soybean sprouts and soups showed significant difference in 6 characteristics of yellowness of cotyledon, size of cotyledon and so on.

When crushing rocks to produce aggregates, solid stone dust or sludge is generated as a by-product. These by-products are classified as waste and are not utilized, and most of them are disposed of landfills. This by-product differs in mineral composition, chemical composition, and physical properties depending on the rock type and aggregate production process. Therefore, if a technology that can make good use of the inherent physical or chemical properties of by-products is developed, economic and environmental benefits can be achieved instead of disposal. In this study, stone dust and sludge were collected from domestic aggregate producers and physical and chemical properties were investigated by performing XRD mineral analysis, particle size analysis, and chemical analysis. In addition, the research trend was identified through a domestic and international research case studies on the use of stone powder and sludge.

The retention behaviors of poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate)s have been studied by thermal field-flow fractionation(ThFFF) with respect to effective separation and characterization of thermal diffusion coefficients($D_{\tau}$) as one of the physicochemical properties of polymers. The eight copolymers are different in vinyl acetate composition ranging from 25% to 70% and in molecular weight ranging from 110,000 to 285,000. The carrier solvents are THF, toluene and chlorobenzene which have different viscosities and thermal conductivities. It is shown that the retention of a copolymer is dependent on the type of the carrier, the molecular weight and chemical composition of the copolymer. The results show that the retention of a copolymer increases when either vinyl acetate composition or the molecular weight increase. $D_{\tau}$ values measured by experiments vary from 1.36∼5.97 $\cm^2/(s.K)$ depending on the copolymer composition and the type of the carrier solvent. These values increase $(r^2{\geq}0.928)$ with increase of weight % of vinyl acetate. THF is found to be the proper carrier solvent for separation of copolymers employed in this study due to the fact that a $D_{\tau}$ value greatly changes with variation of copolymer composition. From the above results, ThFFF can be used for separation of copolymers with similar molecular sizes but different compositions.
