This study was conducted to examine decay incidence of citrus fruit treated with antifungal patches during short-term storage using 10 kg paper boxes at room temperature. It was investigated for 15 days in 'Iwasaki' and for 30 days in 'Miyagawa' treated with 200 mg/kg and 500 mg/kg patches of hexanal, carvacrol, and cinnamaldehyde alone or mixed. When it was treated with 200 mg/kg in 'Iwasaki, The decay rate of fruit was at 1.0% in carvacrol alone. In 'Miyagawa', The decay rate of fruit showed lower at cinnamaldehyde and hexanal+cinnamaldehyde mixture of 500 mg/kg than others. And also hexanal+cinnamaldehyde mixture of 200 mg/kg was twice lower than others. In conclusion, the mixed antifungal patches was more effective in reducing citrus fruit decay in citrus fruits than alone at room temperature.

Volatile organic components from onions stored in the different decay conditions were extracted by SDE apparatus and analyzed by GC-FID and GC/MS. Components of 115, 143, 123 and 137 were identified in fresh onions, decayed onions without heating, half-decayed and complete-decayed onions after heating, respectively. These components included esters, aldehydes, ketones, alcohols and sulfur-containing compounds. Dimethyl trisulfide, dimethyl disulfide, dipropyl trisulfide and 3,5-diethyl-1,2,4-trithiolane were the main sulfur-containing components in fresh onions and decayed onions without heating. As spoilage of onions, the concentrations of sulfur-containing components of volatile extracts significantly decreased. Apart from sulfur-containing components, volatile organic components in half-decayed and complete-decayed onions after heating were mainly composed of esters, aldehydes, ketones and alcohols. Ketones of volatiles in complete-decayed onions after heating were high relatively.

Thirty-three bacterial and fungal strains were isolated from the rotten soybeans and soybean sprouts to isolate pathogenic microorganisms which cause soybean sprouts rot during soybean sprouts cultivation. In pathogenicity tests of the isolates on soybean sprouts, two isolates(K-17 and K-28) caused soybean sprouts rot and were identified as Erwinia carotovora and Fusarium sp., respectively. To isolate antagonists aganist K-17 and K-28 pathogens, bacteria were isolated from various soybean-cultivated soils and screened by the inhibition zone method. A bacterial isolate(J-232) which inhibited growth of both pathogens was identified as Pseudomonas fluorescens and further examined. The culture filtrate of P. fluorescens J-232 (dilution rate of 500 times) inhibited the growth of Erwinia carotovora K-17 and Fusarium sp. K-28 both on potato dextrose agar medium and on soybean sprouts cultivated in vessel. The development of soybean sprouts rots was observed during cultivation by inoculation of soybean seeds with culture filtrate of both pathogens. The combined inoculation of soybean seeds with culture filtrate of antagonistic bacterium and that of pathogens prevented soybean sprouts rot, and the growth of soybean sprouts was similar to that of control. The soybean sprouts inoculated with antagonists culture filtrate alone did not develop soybean sprouts rot, and the growth of the seedlings was shown to be slightly promoted as compared with that of control.

Putrefactive microorganisms from infected onion bulbs collected at several areas were isolated and identified. The infecting microorganisms were mostly the species of Botrytis, Fusarium, Penicillium, Ericinia and Pseudomonas, among which the last was not pathogenic to onion bulbs. Fumigation of onion bulbs with Tetrachloroisophthalonitrile cut down decay rate by half of the control and the onion bulbs stored at 80% RH showed slow decay rate than those stored at 90% RH. The decay of onion bulbs was mainly caused by molds and the portions of them were 78-85% of Botrytis, 11-17% of Fusarium and 3-5% of Penicillium.

Numerous discussions on the KORUS FTA has been centered around issues on trade in goods, services, or dispute settlement mechanisms. On the other hand, little attention has been given to Chpater 21 of the KORUS FTA on transparency, especially Article 21.6 which states about anti-corruption. Article 21.6 and the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act shares the common purpose to prevent corruptive business practice, and they show similarities in many aspects. The FCPA enforcement has dramatically increased over the past ten years by the U.S. Department of Justice and Securities Exchange Commission stretching its jurisdiction to foreign nationals and companies. Korean business professionals and corporations are exposed to both Article 21.6 and the FCPA on corruption issues. Thus, it is imperative to understand Article 21.6 to be equipped with anti-corruption compliance programs. This paper examines the FCPA and Article 21.6 through comparative analysis and proposes appropriate measures for Korea to take.

This study carried out to scanning and select the antimicrobial pharmaceuticals which were suppress the rottening of fresh ginseng. We are isolated 20 kinds of microorganisms from rotten ginseng. In these of the microorganisms, five bacteria, fresh ginseng root-rottening, are identified to Pseudomonas putida, Pseudomonas putida biotype A, Bacillus spp, Enterobacter cloacae, and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Particularly. Bacillus spp was rapidly rotted the ginseng root, compared with the others. The antimicrobial activity were tested with 19 kinds of water extracts, and 34 kinds of essential oils. The water extract of Terminaliae Fructus, and Schiandra chinensis are strongly inhibited the growth of bacteria causing the ginseng root-rottening. And 5 kind of essential oils are inhibited bacteria. It was regarded that the water extract of Terminaliae Fructus has weekly water insoluble and polar antimicrobial components.

Because insect visitors was different depending on decomposition stage, dipterans occurred on chicken carcasses depending on postmortem intervals were compared by abandoned sites and decomposition from a serial study on arthropod occurrence from carcasses as forensic indicator. Species occurrence and decomposition of carcasses were different depending on abandoned sites (forest hill, open field, stream, greenhouse and roof), seasons (spring, summer, fall and winter), and situation (burying and non-burying). Development of carcass decomposition was faster at all sites in summer, carcass in greenhouse in winter, and unburied carcasses. Although visiting time of blow flies (Calliphoridae) (Phaenicia sericata, Lucilia illustris, Lucilia sp., Chrysomyia pinguis, and Chrysomyia megacephala) was different depending on abandoned season, their adults were generally collected from carcasses within 2 days. However, there were no visited flies at fresh stage of buried carcasses. The flesh flies (Sarcophagidae) were collected from all sites and seasons, and much faster from unburied carcasses than buried carcasses. Those were collected earlier from carcasses in greenhouse than other sites and occurrence was also shorter. In greenhouse, occurrence time of flesh flies were different depending on season; spring and summer - from fresh to active decay stage, fall - fresh to active decay stage, and winter - advanced decay to remains stage. Calliphora lata, Tricerotopyga calliphoroides, and Aldrichana grahami were dominant species and occurrences were different from other flies. These flies were active mainly from fresh to active stage. Larvae of sarcophagid flies were occurred earlier than those of calliphorid flies on buried carcasses.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of environmental conditions of air temperature and relative humidity, varieties, and water content of leaves at harvesting time on the occurrence of barn rot during curing of burley tobacco. The curing environmental condition was combined with 4 air temperatures ranging from 25$^{\circ}C$ to 40$^{\circ}C$ and 3 different relative humidities. The harvested leaves with 3 different water contents were cured during the rainy season in curing barn. Barn rot occurred the most at 30$^{\circ}C$, and reduced at 25$^{\circ}C$ and remarkably decreased at above 35$^{\circ}C$. But no barn rot was observed at 40$^{\circ}C$. In influence of relative humidity, the percentage of rotten leaves was highest at 100% RH and remarkably reduced at lower RH. Among two varieties, KB 101 was rotted smaller than Burley 21 under the all temperature and relative humidity conditions, however those considerably showed no difference. The rate of disease development increased in the lower leaves more than in the upper leaves. In the water content of leaves at harvesting time, 29.5% of the rotten leaves was observed at W.S.D. (water saturation deficit) 10.3%, but no barn rot was found at W.S.D. 6.4%.

Twenty-six cabbage rot samples were collected from markets and main cabbage-growing areas in Korea and isolates of pathogenic bacteria were obtained from the collection. According to their bacteriological characteristics and pathogenicity, the majority of rot bacteria were identified as Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora. Pseudomollas cichorii. P. viridiflava and Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestri. Among these four species, E. carotovora subsp. carotovora and X. campestris pv. campestris were found to cause serious damage to cabbage production throughout Korea. Two species of the causal bacteria were sometimes isolates from a single cabbage rot sample and it suggest that the mixed infection of the two bacteria be occurred under field condition.

Seventy nine swollen commercially canned grapes and peaches were collected from wholesale and retail outlets in Seoul area for the investigation of the causes of their swell. Hydrogen generation and microbial spoilage were the only two common causes of can swelling. Nevertheless, the spoilage profile of the two products was different. Seventeen out of twenty one canned peaches were spoiled by microorganisms, while the rest of five were swollen due to hydrogen generation. In contrast, fifty one out of fifty eight canned grapes were swollen due to hydrogen generation, while the rest of seven were spoiled by microorganisms. Seventeen yeast and five bacterial strains were isolated and only the yeasts were identified to their genera and species. Saccharomyces cerevisiae was the most frequently isolated spoilage yeast, closely followed by Torulopsis stellata. Candida parapsilosis, Pichia kluyveri, Pichia membranaefaciens, Torulopsis globosa and Torulopsis lactis-condensi were also isolated but with lower frequencies.
