A rice cultivar (Japonica type), Cheong-cheong, was used to examine the ability as a substrate for aflatoxin production. Brown rice samples were inoculated with Aspergillus parasiticus, stored at various conditions, and observed the production of aflatoxin $B_1$ during storage. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was performed to detect aflatoxin $B_1$ in the samples. A temperature of $28^{\circ}C$ favored the aflatoxin production in the samples. Remoisturizing brown rice to 15.8% encouraged the fungus to produce the aflatoxin significantly (p$B_1$ production in rice, and also indicated that other factors such as husking and storage periods were also risk determinants. This study provided evidence that rice could be an efficient medium for aflatoxin production.

토양수분(soil moisture)은 수문인자의 하나로서 토양 내에 함유된 물의 양을 의미하며, 그 총량은 미미하지만 대기와 지표면 사이에서 일어나는 복잡한 물순환과 에너지 교환을 이해하는데 있어 필수적이다. 현재 국내에서는 「수자원의 조사·계획 및 관리에 관한 법률」(이하 수자원법)에 근거해 토양수분량 관측이 이루어지고 있으며, 수자원 분야의 한국수자원조사기술원 외에도 농업, 임업 분야에서도 다양한 기관에서 지상관측소를 구축해 토양수분량을 측정하고 있다. 국내 지상관측소에서는 주로 지점규모(point scale)로 토양수분량을 관측하는 장비가 사용되고 있으며, 유전율식 장비인 TDR(Time Domain Reflectometry), FDR(Frequency Domain Reflectometry)이나 토양수분장력을 측정하는 장력계(Tensiometer)가 널리 쓰이고 있다. 수자원분야에서는 토양 내 수분의 양을 직관적으로 확인할 수 있는 유전율식 장비가 대중적으로 사용되고 있으며, 최근에는 우주선(Cosmic-Ray)으로부터 발생하는 고속중성자(Fast Neutron)를 통해 중규모 면단위(field scale) 토양수분량을 관측하는 장비인 CRNP(Cosmic-Ray Neutron Probe)에 대한 연구도 활발히 진행되고 있다. 이러한 장비는 주로 야외에 설치해 운영하고 있기 때문에 장비 훼손이나 전원공급의 어려움으로 결측이나 오측이 발생할 수 있다. 토양수분량 시계열자료의 결측이나 오측이 일반적인 감쇄기에 발생했다면 선형보간법으로도 간단히 보간할 수 있지만, 강우에 의한 상승기에 발생했다면 해당 강우사상에서의 토양수분량의 상한치를 알기 어려워 결측보간에 어려움이 있다. 본 연구에서는 토양수분량 시계열자료의 강우기간 결측을 보간하는 방법으로 누적분포함수 역변환 샘플링방법을 선택하였다. 연구에는 음성군(차곡리) 토양수분량 관측소 2021년 자료가 사용되었으며, 관측소 56개 지점 중 임의의 지점에 결측구간을 생성한 뒤 해당 지점과의 상관계수가 높은 지점의 누적분포함수를 이용해 역변환 샘플링 방식으로 임의 지점의 결측을 보간하고 그 결과를 기존값과 비교해 보간 방법의 정확도를 평가하였다.

As a result of resistant starch yield depending on heating temperature, moisture content, storage temperature and heating-cooling cycle with RSM (response surface methodology), high amylose corn starch (46%) was appeared higher than normal corn starch in the yield (22%). At the high amylose corn starch, optimum conditions for resistant starch formation were 6 times of heating-cooling cycle, 108$^{\circ}C$ heating temperature and 67% moisture content at the 2$0^{\circ}C$ storage temperature, which resulted in 25% yield with these experiment conditions. Affecting factor for the resistant starch formation was arranged according to heating -cooling cycle, moisture content, heating temperature and storage temperature. Raw corn starch granule was destructive and appeared a porous reticular structure by the resistant starch formation. Color became dark and increased yellowness by caramelization during heating processing. Heating-cooling processing was the result of decreased hardness, cohesiveness, springiness and gumminess.

Laboratory experiments were undertaken in mixing chamber to study the water-in-oil emulsion formation tendency, stability and formation rate of 16 crude oils. Arabian, Iran, Dubai, Isthmus and Daekyung crudes showed high emulsion formation tendency and had water contents of 80-90%. Emulsions of crude oils of middle East were very stable, while Isthmus and Daekyung sudes formed unstable emulsion. Emulsion formation tendency rate, and stability showed significant correlations with asphaltene content of crude oil. To evaluate the possibility of preventing mousse formation, inhibition ability of several dispersants and demulsifier was tested. They inhibited mousse formation at 0.1-0.2% concentrations (v/v). Emulsion inhibition by chemical treatment delayed the time of formation, but did not decrease water content. Demulsifying ability of dispersants and demulsifier was tested because biscous emulsion causes formidable problems in skimming, pumping and recovery operation. British demulsifier Alcohol 0 showed excellent emulsion breaking efficiency at 0.1% of emulsion Vol..

This study was carried out in order to investigate oxidative deterioration during dehydration at $40^{\circ}C,\;50^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$ of sea mussel and baby clam. Moisture content was decreased with drying temperature and time. Sea mussel was dehydrated more rapidly than baby clam that had Harder muscle tissue. Both samples were not reached to Aw 0.62 in case of 10 hrs drying at $40^{\circ}C$, But it reached within 8 hrs in sea mussel and 10 hrs in baby clam at $50^{\circ}C$, respectively. Even if $60^{\circ}C$ could speed up drying, it caused to form more free fatty acid, peroxide, thiobarbituric acid and brown pigments. Lipophilic brown pigment was 10 times higher than hydrophilic and actively increased in all samples. fluorescence intensity was also increased with drying temperature and time. Particularly, it was higher sea mussel than baby clam more or less.

We prepared puffed instant Nuroong-gi samples using a microwave and investigated the physicochemical characteristics of the products. The quality of Nuroong-gi prepared using a microwave was compared with that of noodles prepared in a steam cooker and pressure cooker in terms of moisture content, color, water binding capacity ratio, viscosity, sedimented volume of insoluble solids, turbidity, and sensory evaluation. The moisture content of Nuroong-gi prepared in a microwave was similar to that of steam cooker and pressure cooker samples. The color (lightness) of steam cooker-prepared noodles was greater than that of noodles cooked using other modes. The water binding capacity ratio fell with increasing microwave cooking time. The viscosity of noodles prepared using a microwave was higher than that of pressure cooker samples and lower than that of steam cooker noodles. The sedimented volume of insoluble solids and turbidity increased with a rise in cooking temperature. Nuroong-gi prepared in a microwave scored higher in sensory evaluation tests than did steam cooker or pressure cooker samples. These results indicate that Nuroong-gi preparation using a microwave is very efficient.

오일 변압기 내부의 절연물은 절연지, 프레스보드, 광유 또는 식물유가 주로 사용되고 있다. 사용 기간과 과부하 조건에 따라 열화정도가 달라질 수 있으며, 내부 절연물의 열분해 및 가수분해로 인해 수분은 자연스럽게 생성될 수 있다. 생성된 수분은 절연을 약하게 하는 주된 요인으로 작용해 기기의 고장 또는 정전을 초래할 수도 있다. 본 논문에서는 변압기 내부 절연물의 주파수응답 특성과 절연상태 값을 바탕으로 변압기 내부를 전기적 소자로 등가화하였다. 그 후 등가화된 회로를 이용해 회복전압법의 원리에 따라 EMTP 프로그램을 활용해 분극특성을 모의하였다. 실제 측정 값과의 비교를 위해 보고된 문헌의 데이터를 활용하였고, RVM을 이용한 실측값과 유사한 결과를 얻게 되었다. 따라서 본 시뮬레이션에 활용된 전기적 소자값을 변경함으로서 내부 절연물의 열화정도에 대한 기대 파형을 예측할 수 있는 유용한 도구로 활용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Effects of soil moisture and temperature on the degradation rate of imazamethabenz were studied in two soils, a Declo sandy loam soil with 1.5% organic matter and pH of 8.0, and a Pancheri silt loam soil with 2.1% organic matter and pH of 7.7. Soils were incubated for 12 weeks under controlled conditions. Treatments were a factorial arrangements with combinations of three soil moistures (45, 75, 100% of field capacity) and two soil temperatures (20, 30C). Imazamethabenz degradation followed first-order kinetics for all soil moisture-soil temperature combinations. Imazamethabenz degradation rate was proportional to increase of soil moisture and temperature. Soil moisture effect on imazamethabenz degradation was greater when soil moisture was increased from 45 to 75% of field capacity (half-life decreased 2.6 fold) than when moisture increased from 75 to 100% of field capacity (half-life decreased 1.2 fold). Imazamethabenz degradation occurred more rapidly in the Pancheri silt loam than the Declo sandy loam soil. Formation of imazamethabenz acid from imazamethabenz followed a quadratic trend for most soil-moisture-soil temperature combinations. Imazamethabenz acid formation initially increased at earlier stages, but later gradually decreased. In most cases, increasing soil moisture and temperature appeared to accelerate it's acid breakdown to other metabolites.

The effect of water potential ($\psi_W$) and temperature on mycelial growth and sclerotial production of Sclerotium cepivorum was determined in potato dextrose agar(PDA) and potato dextrose broth (PDB) adjusted to different $\psi_W$ with NaCI, KCI, sucrose or polyethylene glycol (PEG) at 15, 20 and $25^{\circ}C$. the growth of mycellium was not significantly af. fected by $\psi_W$ values between -1,970 and -2,240J/Kg, but severely decreased lower than -2,240J/Kg. Dry weight was slightly increased at $\psi_W$values between -450 and -2,240 J/Kg. The reduction of dry weight wasslower than the reduction of mycelial growth as the $\psi_W$ decreased. The mycelial growth and dry weight were more severely influenced on PEG amended media than on other osmotica amended media. About 50% reduction of mycelial growth and dry weight was occurred about -1,000 and -2240 J/Kg, respectively. The production of sclerotion of sclerotial production occurred between -450 and -810 J/Kg. Sclerotium was not produced lower than -2,240 J/Kg. Mycelial growth and sclerotial production was better at $25^{\circ}C$ as the $\psi_W$ decreased than at $20^{\circ}C$ which is optimal temperaturein the undmended media. The influence of $\psi_W$ on mycelial growth and sclerotial production of S. cepivorum adjusted with NaCl, KCI sucrose or polyethylene glycol showed similar patterns.
