This study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of high a)z pre-treatment (60, $100\%$ for 3, 6, 12 hr) on quality of 'Hikawa Hakuho' peach fruits. High a)z treatment inhibited the respiration and ethylene production, especially with long tenn treatment for more than 6 hr. Discoloration of peel, softening and decay were reduced by high $CO_2$ treatment $CO_2$ concentration of $60\~100\%$ did not affect soluble solids content and titratable acidity of fruits. $CO_2$ treated fruits, however, showed higher sweetness score compared with control. As the $CO_2$ concentration and treatment duration increased from 60 to $100\%$ and from 3 to 12 hr, respectively, the efficacy on quality increased. Fruits treated with $100\%\;CO_2$ for 3 hr and $60\%\;CO_2$ for 12 hr, however, showed very low flavor score due to the residual $CO_2$ in flesh. High $CO_2$ injury was not noted at any $CO_2$ levels tested in this study. Above results suggest that $60\%\;CO_2$ treatment for 6 hr resulted in as good control of respiration, ethylene production, decay, discoloration and softening without off-order.

Discoloration of canned boiled oysters during storage is one of the serious problems which affect the quality of the products as well as the nutritive value. Usually the factors influencing the quality of canned boiled oysters are the process of pretreatments and the storage temperature of the products. In the present work, the changes of the total chlorophylls and carotenoids in the meat and the viscera of oysters were determined in order to make certain the procedure of the discoloration. In addition, the amino-N and the available lysine as factors of the nutritive value were also checked. In case of treatment with additives, direct addition of syrups containing additives just before seaming or soaking boiled oysters into the solution of additives seemed to have mild effects on retardation of discoloration. The migration of carotenoids from the viscera into the meat was faster than that of chlorophyll resulting in yellowing of the Products preceded greening caused by the chlorophylls. Treatment with $0.5\%\; Na_{2}EDTA\;of\;2.5\%$ brine retarded discoloration and available lysine loss of the Products while sodium-polyphosphate accelerated them. It was probably due to that sodium-polyphosphate could affect the softening or breakdown of the muscle of oysters. But most of all, storage temperature of canned boiled oysters seemed to be the major factor influencing the discoloration and nutritive loss of the products.

The Cheonjeon-ri petroglyph is inscribed with shale formation belonging to the Daegu Formation of the Gyeongsang Supergroup in the Cretaceous of the Mesozoic Era. This rock undergoes thermal alteration to become hornfels, and has a high hardness and dense texture. Rock-forming minerals have almost the same composition as quartz, alkali felspar, plagioclase, calcite, mica, chlorite and opaque minerals, but calcite is rarely detected in the weathered zone. The petroglyph forms a weathered zone with a certain depth, and there is a difference in mineral and chemical composition between weathered and unweathered zones, respectively. The CaO contents of the weathered zone were reduced by more than 90% compared to that of the unweathered zone, because calcite reacted with water and dissolved. As a result of calculating the surface weathering depth for the petroglyph with the transmission characteristics of X-rays, depth of the parts in falling off and exfoliation showed a depth of about 0.5 to 1 mm, but the weathering depth in most areas was calculated to be about 3 to 4 mm. This can be proved by the contents and changes of Ca and Sr. The surface discolorations of the petroglyph are distributed with different color density, and the yellowish brown discoloration is alternated with a thin biofilm layer, showing a coverage of 79.6%. Therefore, periodic preservation managements and preventive conservation monitoring that can effectively control the physicochemical and biological damages of the Cheonjeonri petroglyph will be necessary.

The bacterial density of partially processed horticultural crops in the commercial market was relatively high probably due to improper handing or processing. Between crops, the bacterial density was low in peeled garlic and ranged above $10^8cfu{\cdot}g^{-1}fw$ in other crops. Especially in brake fern, the bacterial density was the highest and non food materials such as packing strips were found. There was difference in the effects of ozone-treated water washing treatment between crops. In root crops such as burdock and lotus root, ozone showed positive effect on preventing discoloration as well as lowing bacterial density resulting in the increase of marketing period. Any positive effect was not found when sliced crops were treated over 5 min at $0.3mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ of dissolved ozone. In lettuce slices, leaf tissues were severely discolored and rapidly soften at $0.3mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ for 2 min dipping. Ozone was highly effective on inhibiting bacterium propagation and off-flavor. This effect was more stronger in Fischer ligulariata than brake fern, probably due to the difference of tissue thickness. Results indicated that ozone-treated water washing had a strong potential to improve the market quality of partially processed horticultural crops including dried wild greens and sliced root crops.

Plasticizers, which are added to plastics, can cause exudation, which means that the plasticizer comes out from surface of the plastics. This causes the surface of plastic artworks to become sticky, and this allows dust and pollutants to become attached to the surface. Therefore, in this study, the degradation characteristics and chemical cleaning methods of each type of plasticizer are evaluated using PVC specimens. To evaluate the degradation characteristics and chemical cleaning methods, microscopic observation, chromaticity and weight measurement, and FT-IR spectroscopy were performed. The results showed that PVCs containing different plasticizers have different degradation patterns. Especially, the PVC containing TOTM showed discoloration and exudation. In the evaluation of the chemical cleaning methods, ethyl alcohol and KOH solution showed good effects, but their stability was not good. Surfactant was found to have a good cleaning effect and stability as a cleaner for exudated plasticizers.

The formation of carbonyl group was dominant to other functional groups. Concentrations of both carboxyl and peroxide groups were found to rapidly reach low steady state values that increased slightly with increa-sing temperature and relatice humidity. Since the deg-radation of cellulose samples was in the initial stage and the conversion of glycosidic bonds and hydroxyl groups were very small, it was found that changes in the physical and chemical properties could be fitted to a first-order reaction model.

Absorption spectra of photochromic spironaphthoxazine dye in various solvents were examined and exhibited a positive solvatochromism. The positive solvatochromism of this dye strongly suggests that the structure of open chain forms is keto type structure, 4a. The effect of structural change on the electronic spectra, on replacement of the C=C bond by C=N bond, is discussed.

주택외간의 품격을 좌우하는 요소인 지붕에 주로 사용되는 자재는 기와이다. 과거에는 주로 재래식 한식기와가 사용되었지만 지금은 거의 사용되지 않고 양식기와인 스패니시 기와가 보편적으로 사용되고 있다. 그 이유는 외장재로 많이 사용되는 자재들과 가장 잘 어울리기 때문이지만 외벽에 돌이 사용된 경우에는 천연슬레이트가 더 적합하다. 최근에는 컬라아스팔트 슁글이 지붕재로 각광을 받고 있는데 미려한 외관을 만들 뿐만 아니라 방수효과도 뛰어나기 때문이다. 또 한 장두장 이상 겹쳐져 시공되기 때문에 내구성도 강하고, 강인한 글래스매트나 다공성 원지를 심재로 특수개질 아스팔트를 합쳐 채색된 돌입자로 표면을 처리하여 내후성 · 내변색성도 강하다. 무게도 기와의 1/5이 안돼 구조체의 하중부담을 줄여 안정성을 기할 수 있다. 이외의 지붕재로 금속제품, 유리, 태양열 주택의 집열판 등 부분적인 지붕으로 사용되는 것으로가 한때 유행했던 콘크리트 슬라이브 등을 들 수 있다.
