We investigated stabilities of blue pigment extracted from Gardenia jasminoides at various conditions to check its applicability for beverages. Gardenia blue pigment with maximum absorption at 587 nm was obtained from the reaction of glycine and genipin (aglycone of geniposide). The blue pigment was found to be relatively unstable at acidic pH but very stable at alkaline conditions with half-life values of 102 days and 126 days at PH 9.0 and PH 11.0, respectively. The pigment also showed high thermal stability with half-life value of 55, 18, and 2 days at 50, 70, and 9$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. The addition of inorganic ions, sugars, and amino acids to model beverage containing this blue pigment increased retention rate at room temperature while addition of vitamin C decreased the stability. The sensory evaluation of the model beverage showed that inorganic ions and amino acids increased overall acceptability, indicating that the blue pigments of Gardenia jasminoides can be used as a natural colorant for leverage.

Basic characteristics of astaxanthin including solubility and stability were investigated. Astaxanthin showed a very poor solubility in water, but it was highly soluble in organic solvents such as acetone and acetic acid. The solubility of astaxanthin in acidic condition was 10-20 times higher than those in neutral and basic conditions. Astaxanthin was very unstable in acidic condition under UV irradiation and in the presence of oxygen. Also, heating even for a very short time accelerated the degradation of astaxanthin. In conclusion, it is required to enhance the water-solubility and stability of astaxanthin for industrial application in food and cosmetic area.

This study was performed to develop anti-obesity Phellineus linteus powder for application as food additives. P. linteus powders which contained anti-obesity lipase inhibitor were prepared by freeze drying and spray drying. Effects of various additives on the quality of their powders were investigated. 10% over addition of dextrin and gum-arabia was good in the rheological properties of their powders and optimal spray temperature was near $130^{\circ}C$. When their powders were sealed and storaged at room temperature for 6 months, its characteristics were not changed. Especially, changes of its colors was repressed by addition of 0.3 M oxalic acid, citric acid and ascorbic acid than those by non-treatment.

Rice flours produced by dry, wet, and semi-wet milling methods were used to investigate bread-making properties. Wet milled rice flours were produced by two different steeping temperatures of $25^{\circ}C$ and $55^{\circ}C$, properties of composite flour containing 70% rice flour and 30% wheat flour with the addition of vital wheat gluten were tested. Among rice flours, wet milled rice flour showed increased mixing time and dough stability determined by a mixograph. Wet milled rice flours produced higher loaf volume compared with dry of semi-wet milled rice flours. Wet-milled rice flour steeped at $55^{\circ}C$ appeared to produce good rice breads with relatively high loaf volume. Crumb hardness of bread prepared with wet milled rice flour was lower than the other breads and increased slowly during 3-day storage at $25^{\circ}C$.

Regarding physical absorption mechanism for fine particles(Dust), internal pore-bridging is a major parameter in porous media. In this paper, internal bridging pore system is invented through FA-based geopolymer and incorporated PLA (Polylactic Acid) fiber with biodegradability. With various mix proportions, compressive strength over 20MPa is obtained but PLA is little dissolved in the condition of NaOH 5mole and $30^{\circ}C$ of temperature, which was found that temperature rising accelerates PLA solubility. Within 24hours, beads type PLA is completely dissolved under $90{\sim}130^{\circ}C$ and NaOH 5~12mole of alkali. In room condition, geo-polymerization is limitedly occurs so that the internal pore after PLA dissolution is thought to be effective to absorption and storage of fine particles.

This study examines paraelectric $Bi_{1.5}Zn_{1.0}Nb_{1.5}O_7$ (BZN), which has no hysteresis and high dielectric strength, for energy density capacitor applications. To increase the breakdown dielectric strength of the BZN film further, poly(vinylidene fluoride) BZN-PVDF composite film is fabricated by aerosol deposition. The volume ratio of each composition is calculated using dielectric constant of each composition, and we find that it was 12:88 vol% (BZN:PVDF). To modulate the structure and dielectric properties of the ferroelectric polymer PVDF, the composite film is heat-treated at $200^{\circ}C$ for 5 and 30 minutes following quenching. The amount of ${\alpha}-phase$ in the PVDF increases with an increasing annealing time, which in turn decreases the dielectric constant and dielectric loss. The breakdown dielectric strength of the BZN film increases by mixing PVDF. However, the breakdown field decreases with an increasing annealing time. The BZN-PVDF composite film has the energy density of $4.9J/cm^3$, which is larger than that of the pure BZN film of $3.6J/cm^3$.

The experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of fruit skin spray of the lime fertilizer in 'Campbell Early' grapes. The T-N, P, K, Ca and Mg of fruit skin and cluster weight, berry weight, cluster length showed no difference between control and lime fertilizer. But soluble solids in fruit was reduced by fruit skin spray of liquid calcium fertilizer extracted from oyster shell after bagging(LCaB). The anthocyanin content of fruit skin was decreased by air-slaked lime(HCa) and LCaB treatment. Also, occurrence of fruit skin bloom was significantly reduced by HCa and oyster shell powder(OS-CaP) treatment. The berry firmness was significantly increased through liquid calcium fertilizer extracted from oyster shell(LCa) and HCa treatment. Conspicuously, berry elasticity was rather decreased by OS-CaP treatment. However, there was no difference of weight loss of fruit among treatments during room temperature storage.

Purpose: Generally, patients are noticed to store denture in water when removed from the mouth. However, few studies have reported the advantage of volumetric change in underwater storage over dry storage. To be a reference in defining the proper denture storage method, this study aims to evaluate the volumetric change and dimensional deformation in case of underwater and dry storage. Materials and methods: Definitive casts were scanned by a model scanner, and denture bases were designed with computer-aided design (CAD) software. Twelve denture bases (upper 6, lower 6) were printed with 3D printer. Printed denture bases were invested and flasked with heat-curing method. 6 upper and 6 lower dentures were divided into group A and B, and each group contains 3 upper and 3 lower dentures. Group A was stored dry at room temperature, group B was stored underwater. Group B was scanned at every 24 hours for 28 days and scanned data was saved as stereolithography (SLA) file. These SLA files were analyzed to measure the difference in volumetric change of a month and Kruskal-Wallis test were used for statistical analysis. Best-fit algorithm was used to overlap and 3-dimensional color-coded map was used to observe the changing pattern of impression surface. Results: No significant difference was found in volumetric changes regardless of the storage methods. In dry-stored denture base, significant changes were found in the palate of upper jaw and posterior lingual border of lower jaw in direction away from the underlying tissue, maxillary tuberosity of upper jaw and retromolar pad area of lower jaw in direction towards the underlying tissue. Conclusion: Storing the denture underwater shows less volumetric change of impression surface than storing in the dry air.

In order to increase the availability of filefish scrap, the ordinary and low salt sauce were prepared, and identified their taste compounds in their products. To process the filefish scrap sauce, chopped filefish scrap was mixed with koji, 25% brine, slat and glucose (25.0 : 65.0 : 12.5 : 7.0, w/w) and fermented at $25{\pm}4^{\circ}C$ for 120 days. The same process was also carried out to process the low salt sauce adding sorbitol, lactic acid and ethyl alcohol (7.0 : 0.7 : 9.0. w/w) instead of salt. While amino nitrogen and volatile basic nitrogen(VBN) of products were decreased, pH and reducing sugar were increased all alone the fermentation period. The major free amino acids of products at final stage of fermentation were glutamic acid, alanine, leucine, lysine and aspartic acid. And the contents of total amino acid in the ordinary and low salt sauce were 4126.6(mg/100m1 sauce), 4519.5(mg/100m1 sauce) after fermentation. Hypoxanthine was revealed as the major constituent among nucleotides and their related compounds through fermentation. Free amino acid-N in the filefish scrap sauces were from 56.3%(ordinary) to 60.7%(low salted) of extractive nitrogen. From the sensory evaluation, the quality of products from filefish scrap sauce were almost equal to sold soy sauce on the market.

The majority of food drying processes are based on the use of thermal energy. However, such methods may deteriorate the quality of the final product. Freeze-drying is one of the most useful processes for drying thermosensitive substances. Food that contains beneficial bacteria, for example, is susceptible to heat treatment, but during freeze-drying beneficial bacteria are preserved in these food items. The primary goals of this study were to develop yogurt snacks and to compare the viability of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in yogurt snacks under different freeze-drying temperatures. In addition, the survival of LAB during storage was investigated. Survival of LAB in freeze-dried yogurt snacks gradually decreased over 16 weeks of storage. LAB had a residual viability of 25.5% after 16 weeks of storage at room temperature. LAB survived better in freeze-dried plain yogurt snacks than in freeze-dried strawberry yogurt snacks during storage. Freeze-dried yogurt snacks contained 11.9% fat, 57.1% carbohydrate, and 18.7% protein. In conclusion, the viability of LAB in freeze-dried yogurt snacks depends on the temperature during freeze-drying: the higher the freeze-drying temperature, the lower the viability of LAB in yogurt snacks. The viability of LAB in yogurt snacks was also dependent on the moisture content and nutritional value.
