Electron microscopy of the tremolite-actinolite series amphiboles from the naturally occurring asbestos locality showed the morphological diversity including fibrous, acicular, and prismatic. Very thin, long, and flexible fibers of constant width form ropy bundles or mats. Acicular particles are slightly thick, long, elastic, and easily separated from the bundle of parallel rods. Acicular fragments of lower aspect ratio are formed during the crushing of the amphibole prism. Morphological features of the amphiboles are different depending on their localities and vary in a specimen. Morphological continuum between amphibole fiber and prism requires the establishment of reliable identification criterions and sample preparation protocol based on the relation between carcinogenicity and morphological features.

According to the nuclear safety regulation policy including the administration of radionuclides in low level radwastes, the evaporator bottoms were mixed with cement to form a stable solidification for identifying the recovery possibility of the C-14. The chemical oxidation method was applied for the extraction of C-14 from the cement waste form. The emitting beta ray of the C-14 extracted from the radwastes was measured with the liquid scintillation counter and calculated by using the quenching correction curves. Only the beta emitting radioactive nuclides of the C-14 in the radwastes was showed the radioactivities with the range of $2.7E+00\;{\sim}\;3.07E+02$ Bq/g.

The effects of the different protein source on serum cholesterol levels were studied in SD strain male rats. Fish protein prepared by the method of SUZUKI from Alaska Pollack (Theragra chalcogramma) was compared with casein and soybean protein isolate. Each protein source was incoporated into a cholesterol-free diet in order to provide a protein level of 20% for 2 weeks. The result obtained are as followed: Concentration of total-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, total-cholesterol/HDL-cholesterol and triglyceride in rats fed with fish protein group were significantly lower than those of rats fed with casein and similar to those of rats fed with soybean protein. In addition, it was shown that the ratio of Lys/Arg and Gly/Met+Cys of fish protein was close to that of soybean protein.

This study aimed to enhance the quality and sensory acceptability of dak-galbi sauce made from general tomatoes, plum tomatoes and canned tomatoes and find the most preferred quality characteristics and tomato type for the production of dak-galbi sauce. Dak-galbi sauce was blended with different concentrations of tomatoes (0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%). As the amount of a tomato addition increased, the moisture contents, L-values, a-values and B-values significantly(p<0.001) increased while salinity, sugar contents and viscosity decreased. The attribute difference test showed that significant differences in such properties as color intensity, pungent flavor, pungent taste, mouthfeel were observed with more tomatoes added. Based on the results of this study, the optimal tomato content for maximizing the overall quality of dak-galbi sauce was 10~20% of general tomatoes or 20% of plum and canned tomatoes. More various kinds of dak-galbi sauce are expected to be developed through this study.

The purpose of this study is to develop fresh pasta added with superjami, which had a high C3G (cyanidin-3-glucoside). Making fresh pasta with wheat flour and superjami(0, 10, 20, 30, 40%) was done, followed by the mechanical test(moisture content, color value, weight, volume, texture, tension) and the sensory analysis(attribute difference test, preference test). Results are as follows. Moisture content of fresh pasta and cooked pasta was the highest in SP40, and the scores of cooked pasta was much higher than those of fresh pasta. L, a and b value decreased as the ratio of superjami powder. Hardness, chewiness and tension force decreased, while weight, volume, adhesiveness and tension distance increased as the ratio of superjami powder. Attribute difference test showed that color intensity, superjami flavor, savory flavor, superjami taste, savory taste, graininess and after swallow were intense as superjami powder was added. The preference test showed that SP20 containing 20% of superjami powder was the most preferable in flavor, taste, texture and overall quality. Therefore, this was taken as the optimal superjami powder contents for maximizing the overall quality of fresh pasta.

Frost heave, a significant engineering aspect of frozen ground, leads to various damages in Korea during the winter. Both the United States and Japan, encompassing regions with frozen ground, have actively researched frost heave and possess standardized experimental methods. Particularly, the Japanese Geotechnical Society (JGS) has introduced a frost heave standard testing method, offering the advantage of relatively simple specimen preparation and experimental procedures. However, issues persist regarding the ambiguous engineering interpretation of frost heave test results and the lack of clear criteria for frost heave susceptibility assessment. This paper presents laboratory testing results following the JGS testing method on sand and silt mixtures using a triaxial temperature-controllable cell, and thoroughly analyzes the frost heave rate calculation process. Furthermore, it evaluates the applicability of frost heave susceptibility criteria proposed in the United States to frost heave rates based on the JGS testing method.

The feasibility of stimulating in situ aerobic cometabolic activity of indigenous microorganisms was investigated in a trichloroethylene (TCE)-contaminated aquifer. A series of single-well natural drift tests (SWNDTs) was conducted by injecting site groundwater amended with a bromide tracer and combinations of toluene, oxygen, nitrate, ethylene and TCE into an existing monitoring well and by sampling the same well over time. Three field tests, Push-pull Transport Test, Drift Biostimulation Test, and Drift Surrogate Activity Test, were performed in sequence. Initial rate of toluene degradation was much faster than the rate of bromide dilution resulting from natural groundwater drift, indicating stimulation of indigenous toluene-oxidizing microorganisms. Transformation of ethylene, a surrogate probing overall activity of TCE transformation, was also observed, and its transformation results in the production of ethylene oxide, suggesting that some tolueneoxidizing microorganisms stimulated may express a orthomonooxygenase enzyme. Also in situ transformation of TCE was confirmed by greater retardation of TCE than bromide after the stimulation of toluene-oxidizing microorganisms. These results indicate that, in this environment, toluene and oxygen additions stimulated the growth and aerobic cometabolic activity of indigenous microorganisms expressing orthomonooxygenase enzymes. The simple, low-cost field test method presented in this study provides an effective method for conducting rapid field assessments and pilot testing of aerobic cometabolism, which has previously hindered application of this technology to groundwater remediation.

Fe$_3$O$_4$ particles, prepared by a sol-gel method, were examined for their structural characteristic, particle shapes and sizes, and their magnetic properties. Two different chemical compositions (using a mol rate Fe$^{2+}$/Fe$^{3+}$ = 1/2 and only Fe$^{2+}$) and 2-methoxyethanol were used for making proper solutions. And the solutions were refluxed and dry in a dry oven and the samples were fired at 200$\sim$600$^{\circ}C$ in the N$_2$ atmosphere. The formation of single-phased spinel ferrite powders was identified with the X-ray diffraction measurement as they were fired at above 250$^{\circ}C$. The result of scanning electron microscopy measurement showed the increase of annealing temperature yielded the particle size increased. The magnetic transition was observed using the Mossbaur spectroscopy measurement. As the ferrite, prepared with the chemical composition (Fe$^{2+}$/Fe$^{3+}$ = 1/2), was fired at 250$^{\circ}C$, 78% of the ferrite had a ferrimagnetic property and 22% of the ferrite was non-magnetic. In case of preparing the sample with only Fe$^{2+}$ and annealed at 200$^{\circ}C$, it had a single phased spinel structure but its particle size was too small to be ferrimagnetic. The annealing temperature above 250$^{\circ}C$ made powders a spinel structure regardless of the preparation method. They had a typical soft magnetic property and their saturation magnetization and coercivity became larger as the annealing temperature increased.

Escherichia coli O157:H7 causes hemolytic uremic syndrome and hemorrhagic colitis in humans. The objectives of this study were to produce monoclonal antibody(MAb) against E. coli O157:H7 and to develop an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) for the rapid detection of E. coli O157:H7 in agri-stockbreeding. The characterization of MAb produced from hybridoma cell (HKEC 4G8-5) was validated by ELISA and Western blot. The produced MAb was specific to E. coli O157:H7 and showed weak cross-reaction to Staphylococcus aureus. The detection limit of ELISA based on 4G8-5 MAb was $10^5\;cell/mL$. Although the ELISA could not detect E. coli O157:H7 in the meat and sprout samples inoculated with $1{\times}10^1\;cell$/10 g without enrichment, the same samples after enrichment for 6 hr were confirmed to be positive by ELISA. These results indicated that the ELISA combined with short enrichment (6 hr) is useful tool for rapid screening of E. coli O157:H7 in various samples.
