This study was conducted to investigate the influence of feeding illite(yellow soil component) on meat quality of pork. 40 pigs were fed with commercial formulated feed (control group) and 1% illite added feed(treatment group). Pigs grown up to 100~110kg of weight were slaughtered in commercial abattoir. After chilling for 24hours, samples were collected from M. longissimus dorsi muscle, and stored at $4\pm$$1^{\circ}C$ for analyses. The physico-chemical properties was determined during storage days as follows. Ultimate pH was not significantly different between control and treatment(pH 5.58 and 5.60, respectively). Water-holding capacity measured using filter paper press method of the treatment group was slightly higher than that of the control group. Cooking loss of treatment group were significantly lower than that of the control group at 1 and 7 days(p〈0.05). Shear force between control and treatment group was not different. L*- and a*-value were not significantly different between the two groups(p〉0.05), but b*-value of treatment group was lower than that of the control group(p〈0.05). The drip loss of all samples was increased with storage days, and that of the treatment group was significantly lower than that of the control at 1 and 3 day storage. Meat color measured using NPPC pork quality standards was not significantly different between the two groups(p〉0.05), but marbling content of the treatment group was significantly higher than that of the control group(p〈0.05). Sensory characteristics of, flavor taste and tenderness did not show significant differences(p〉0.05), but juiciness of the treatment group showed higher value than that of the control group(p〈0.05)

The physicochemical characteristics and chemical compositions of six Korean traditional soybeans were studied namely, cheongtae, seoritae, jinjoori, subaktae, yutae and huktae. The characteristics of imported soybean were also investigated for comparison. The average weight of one hundred-seed for huktae, which is normally used as nutritional supplement by adding to rice during cooking, was 43.1 g. The average whole length and long and short width for six varieties of the bean were $5.68{\sim}10.15\;mm$, $5.10{\sim}9.33\;mm$ and $4.30{\sim}7.48\;mm$, respectively. Color of cheongtae and subaktae were green, while that of seoritae, jinjoori, and huktae were black with yutae having yellow seed coat. Moisture, crude fat, crude protein and ash content of soybean seeds were all in the ranges of $8.5{\sim}11.5%$, $14.0{\sim}20.8%$, $38.0{\sim}49.2%$ and $4.2{\sim}5.0%$, respectively, showing differences among cultivars. Methionine, cysteine and histidine were the minor components of soybean protein and percentage of methionine to the total proteins showed significant varietal differences. Subaktae contained the highest content of methionine with 4.0 mg/g protein, while jinjoori the lowest with 1.8 mg/g protein. The main fatty acids of total lipid were linoleic, oleic and palmitic acids, which comprised over 80% of total fatty acids. Cultivar yutae had higher content of neutral lipid but lower content of glycolipid and phospholipid. Among the fatty acids, content of linoleic acid were the highest $(41.4{\sim}54%)$ and ratios of unsaturated fatty acid to the total fatty acid was $82.7{\sim}85.2%$. The main fatty acid of neutral lipid, glycolipid, and phospholipid was linoleic acid.

To investigate the changes of $NH_4-N$ in soil, nitrogen uptake by rice plant, nitrogen use efficiency and rice yield by the application of Latex Coated Urea(LCU) on direct seeding rice, rice was planted on paddy field, Jeonbuk series at the Honam area, from 1996 to 1997. Nitrogen in LCU applied as basal dressing in whole layer was dissolved almost untill non-productive stage. Thus, nitrogen deficiency symptom appeared and N in shoot was 1.75% showing 28.1 of SPAD value at heading stage. However percentage recovery of fertilizer N was higher in LCU than with urea application. Top dressing of urea at panicle initiation stage in addition to basal dressing of LCU, increased rice yield by 9%. Conventional split application of urea on the surface decreased the percentage recovery of fertilizer N to 56.9% of whole layer application plot.

Recently, the size of currently-researched components and devices reduces nano-scale. Thus, it is important and emphasizes the analyses of physical properties in nano scale. Especially, the mechanical properties are not over micro-scale components but nano-scale components with different characteristics that has been reported. However, most analytical methods for currently studying in nano-scale are related to spectroscopy and electronics, affected the limitation of viewing size that these methods give only average information. In this research, the representative nanotribology analyses, nano-indenter study the physical and mechanical properties of W-N thin film for nano region and nano depth within nano-scale that the thickness of W-N diffusion barrier has less than tens of nanometers. The Scanning probe microscopy (SPM) study the surface image. From these results, the hardness of W-N thin film underneath the nano-surface decreased from 57.67 GPa to 9.1 GPa according to the increase of nitrogen gas flow. The elastic modulus of W-N thin film underneath the nano-surface also decreased from 575.53 GPa to 178.1 GPa.

In this study, we investigated quality and fermentation characteristics in baechu kimchi containing 0(control), 5(GK5), 10(GK10), 15(GK15) and 20(GK20)% of shred garlic. Analysis was performed during fermentation at $4^{\circ}C$ for 42 days, every 7 days. The result showed significant changes in color value between control group and garlic added groups. Hunter's color L value was increased during fermentation whereas a and b value were decreased. Hardness of kimchi was higher in 15% and 20% garlic added groups than other groups. The pH decreased significantly during fermentation, while titratable acidity was showed reverse tendency during fermentation period. The reducing sugar content was decreased in all groups during fermentation period, which higher in GK10 and GK15 group than the others. But its remaining ratio was 19.7~22.3% and not showed significant difference in experimental groups at 42 days fermentation. The number of lactic acid bacteria was dramatically increased up to 6.13~7.60 log CFU/g at 7~14 days fermentation. The garlic was inhibited significantly the growth of lactic acid bacteria, but this was not showed significant difference between garlic added groups and control group, after 28 days fermentation. As a results, we suggest that addition of garlic increase the quality characteristics and storage properties of Kimchi, and not hinder quality of kimchi at addition level of 20% than salted baechu.

BACKGROUND: The analytical method was established for determination of fungicide chinomethionat in several animal commodities using gas chromatography (GC) coupled with electron capture detector (ECD). METHODS AND RESULTS: In order to verify the applicability, the method was optimized for determining chinomethonat in various livestock products including beef, pork, chicken, milk and egg. Chinomethionat residual was extracted using acetone/dichloromethane(9/1, v/v) with magnesium sulfate and sodium chloride (salting outassociated liquid-liquid extraction). The extract was diluted by direct partitioning into dichloromethane to remove polar co-extractives in the aqueous phase. The extract was finally purified with optimized silica gel 10 g. CONCLUSION: The method limit of quantitation (MLOQ) was 0.02 mg/kg, which was in accordance with the maximum residue level (MRL) of chinomathionate as 0.05 mg/kg in livestock product. Recovery tests were carried out at two levels of concentration (MLOQ, 10 MLOQ) and resulted in good recoveries (84.8~103.0%). Reproducibilities were obtained (Coefficient of variation <5.2%), and the linearity of calibration curves were reasonable (r²>0.995) in the range of 0.01-0.2 ㎍/mL. This established analytical method was fully validated and could be useful for quantification of chinomathionat in animal commodities as official analytical method.

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is a key component in the biogeochemical cycling in freshwater ecosystem. However, it has been rarely explored, particularly complex river watershed dominated by natural and anthropogenic sources, such as various effluent facility and livestock. The current research developed a new analytical method for TOC/TN (Total Organic Carbon/Total Nitrogen) stable isotope ratio, and distinguish DOM source using stable isotope value (δ¹³C-DOC) and spectroscopic indices (fluorescence index [FI] and biological index [BIX]). The TOC/TN-IR/MS analytical system was optimized and precision and accuracy were secured using two international standards (IAEA-600 Caffein, IAEA-CH-6 Sucrose). As a result of controlling the instrumental conditions to enable TOC stable isotope analysis even in low-concentration environmental samples (<1 mgC L^-1), the minimum detection limit was improved. The 12 potential DOM source were collected from watershed, which includes top-soils, groundwater, plant group (fallen leaves, riparian plants, suspended algae) and effluent group (pig and cow livestock, agricultural land, urban, industry facility, swine facility and wastewater treatment facilities). As a result of comparing characteristics between 12 sources using spectroscopic indices and δ¹³C-DOC values, it were divided into four groups according to their characteristics as a respective DOM sources. The current study established the TOC/TN stable isotope analyses system for the first time in Korea, and found that spectroscopic indices and δ¹³C-DOC are very useful tool to trace the origin of organic matter in the aquatic environments through library database.

As for the increasing demanding on the development of direct-ecological landfill monitoring methods, it is needed for critically defining the condition of landfills and their influence on the environment, quantifying the amount of enzymes and bacteria mainly concerned with biochemical reaction in the landfills. This study was thus conducted to understand the fates of contaminants in association with groundwater quality parameters. For the study, groundwater was seasonally sampled from four closed unsanitary landfills(i.e. Cheonan(C), Wonju(W), Nonsan(N), Pyeongtaek(P) sites) in which microbial diversity was simultaneously obtained by 16S rDNA methods. Subsequently, a number of primer sets were prepared for quantifying the specific gene of representative bacteria and the gene of encoding enzymes dominantly found in the landfills. The relationship between water quality parameters and gene quantification were compared based on correlation factors. Correlation between DSR(Sulfate reduction bacteria) gene and BOD(Biochemical Oxygen Demand) was greater than 0.8 while NSR(Nitrification bacteria-Nitrospira sp.) gene and nitrate were related more than 0.9. A stabilization indicator(BOD/COD) and MTOT(Methane Oxidation bacteria), MCR(Methyl coenzyme M reductase), Dde(Dechloromonas denitrificans) genes were correlated over 0.8, but ferric iron and Fli(Ferribacterium limineticm) gene were at the lowest of 0.7. For MTOT, it was at the highest related at 100% over BOD/COD. In addition, anaerobic genes(i.e., nirS-Nitrite reductase, MCR. Dde, DSR) and DO were also related more than 0.8, which showing anaerobic reactions generally dependant upon DO. As demonstrated in the study, molecular biological investigation and water quality parameters are highly co-linked, so that quantitative real-time PCR could be cooperatively used for assessing landfill stabilization in association with the conventional monitoring parameters.

By the standards and specifications for hygiene products, three test methods for formaldehyde are specified for each item type of hygiene product. After derivatization using acetylacetone and 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (2,4-DNPH), formaldehyde is analyzed by spectrophotometer and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Validation of the three test methods was performed on tissue, diaper lining and waterproof layer, and panty liner products. The results of linearity (R²), limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), recovery rate (%) and reproducibility (%), showed that all three methods are suitable for analyzing formaldehyde in hygiene products. After derivatization with 2,4-DNPH and cetylacetone, formaldehyde was analyzed at 0, 3, 6, 9, 24 and 48 hours by HPLC. Formaldehyde derivatized with 2,4-DNPH showed no statistically significant change in formaldehyde peak area over time (P>0.05). But, acetylacetone-derivatizated formaldehyde showed a negative correlation coefficient (r) over time (P<0.01). We investigated the residual amounts of formaldehyde in 205 hygiene products distributed in Busan. Among 74 disposable diaper products tested, 73 had low concentrations of formaldehyde (0.13-29.87 mg/kg). Moreover, formaldehyde was not detected in any of 78 tissue, 27 disposable paper towel, 12 disposable dishcloth, 7 paper cup, one brand of paper straw and 6 disposable napkin products.
