This study was attempted to identify microorganisms in fermenting soybean curd residues (SCR). The changes in contents of free amino acids, nucleosides, reducing sugars, and oligosaccharides were also studied. The fermentation of SCR which was by change inoculation was carried out at $55^{\circ}C$ for 48 hrs. pH increased gradually during fermentation and isolated microorganisms were identified as Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus licheniformis. Moisture content decreased from 80.8% to 58.4% at 48 hrs of fermentation and other proximate composition did not show any changes during fermentation. The content of total free amino acids increased rapidly and the number and quantities of each amino acid analyzed also increased during the course of fermentation. Glutamic acid, phenylalaine, lysine and aspartic acid were rapidly liberated during fermentation. As to the changes of nucleotides, 5'-AMP little changed during the first 36 hrs but subsequently decreased to approximately 1/6 after 48 hrs of fermentation. On the other hand, 5'-IMP plus 5'-GMP did not show almost any change during the first 36 hrs but increased about 3.5 times at 48 hrs of fermentation. However, 5'-XMP was not detected. The reducing sugar level showed rapid and steady increase throughout the fermentation and that of stachyose plus raffinose decreased slightly. From these results, a possible way of utilization of fermented SCR was proposed as a substitute for soybean in meju preparation.

Characteristic chemical compositions of jujube wine using different preparation methods including fermentation were investigated. Fermentation for jujube wine started using whole fruit (JW1), seed-removed fruit (JW2) and whole fruit heated at $100^{\circ}C$ for 2 h and then extracted (JW3). The free amino acids and flavors were analyzed quantitatively by HPLC and GC-MS. A total of 18 amino acids were identified in all samples. The amount of total free amino acids was detected from 141-210 ppm (JW1), 147-342 ppm (JW2), and 336-362 ppm (JW3). Large amounts of proline, aspartate, glutamate, arginine and alanine were detected in jujube wine. Thirteen kinds of volatile compounds including six alcoholic compounds (ethyl alcohol, iso-butyl alcohol, n-butyl alcohol, iso-amyl alcohol, n-amyl alcohol, and phenethyl alcohol), four ester (ethyl acetate, hexyl acetate, ethyl caprylate, and phenethyl acetate) and three aldehydes (diethylacetal, furfural, and benzaldehyde) were detected. Ethyl alcohol (30.50-33.95% peak area), benzaldehyde (2.55-15.97% ratio), furfural (0.07-15.28% ratio), iso-amyl alcohol (1.04-14.73% ratio), and phenethyl acetal (0.78-9.28% ratio) were abundant in jujube wine.

Changes in weight, length, amino acids, organic acids and free sugars of soybean sprouts germinated with extract of Panax ginseng(PGE, 100∼400 ppm) were investigated. PGE increased the weight and length of soybean sprouts. Content of total amino acid in soybean sprout germinated at 100 ppm of PGE after cultivation for 3 days was the most abundant and then decreased by increasing the concentration of PGE. Content of aspartic acid was increased with culture time, but that of glutamic acid was shown to be an opposite trend. Content of total free sugar was increased by increasing culture time and not affected by concentration of PGE. Content of sucrose in control group during growth of soybean sprout was decreased, but sucrose contents in PGE groups were increased to 3 days and decreased thereafter. However, the other sugars were continuously increased for 4 days. Content of total organic acids was the most abundant in soybean sprouts germinated with 200 ppm of PGE and cultured for 3 days. Phytic acid was a major organic acid, showing the range of 45 to 60% for total organic acids. In conclusion, PGE as sprouting water of soybean was effective to increase of growth, contents of amino acids and organic acids in soybean sprouts, indicating that PGE accelerated the quality of soybean sprouts.

Appropriate numerical models for the simulation of off-gas flow in hot area of the vitrification plant have been developed in this study. The models have been applied to analyze the effect of design parameters of real plant and numerical analyses have been performed for CCM(Cold Crucible Melter), pipe cooler and HTF(High Temperature Filter). At first, the effect of excess oxygen and the ratio of oxygen distribution on combustion characteristics in the CCM has been studied. Next, solidification behavior of radio nuclide in the pipe cooler has been numerically modeled and scrutinized. Finally, flow pattern in accordance with the location of off-gas entrance of the HTF has been compared.

The purpose of this study is to analyze and compare the life cycle cost of window glass with insulation film and regular glass, to verify an economical window construction method. As an approach method, the thermal performance data of each type of glass was measured using Window 6.3 and ECO2-OD Simulation Program, applied it to the case building to calculate the air conditioning and heating maintenance costs and LCC, and compared the economic feasibility. As a result, installing an additional insulation film prevents the solar heat penetration in the summer, so it reduces the cooling cost, on the other hand, it increased heating cost in winter. From the life cycle cost perspective, the effect of cooling cost reduction does not counterbalance the increase in heating cost and the additional cost from film installation and repair; therefore, the installation of insulation film may not be a proper method.

Traditional doenjang was fermented in different vessels, and its quality characteristics were investigated during ripening. Fermentation vessels used were dark brown glaze pot, dark brown glaze pot with glass lid and plastic box. Water content of doenjang decreased during fermentation, with doenjang pepared in dark brown glaze pot with glass lid showed the highest water content reduction. Water-soluble nitrogen content $(4.56{\sim}5.80%)$ was the highest at 8 months fermentation and amino type nitrogen content continuously increased until 12 months, with doenjang in dark brown glaze pot higher than those in plastic box. Sensory evaluation revealed the quality of doenjang fermented in plastic box was significantly lower than others after 4 months.

Dynamic changes of free sugar and amino acid in the mixture of red bean paste sediment by corn syrup concentration and heating conditions were monitored. Glucose and fructose contents of red bean paste increased with an increasing blown color intensity. Amino acid content was affected by the heating temperature, increased with an increase in browning color intensify. Browning color intensity of each samples increased up to $95^{\circ}C$, but decreased above $95^{\circ}C$. This result was the same tend as changes of glucose and amino acid. The result of correlation coefficients among free sugar amino acid and browning color intensity show that increase in browning color intensity was not correlated directly with changes of free sugar and amino acid content. It seems that the contents of free sugar and amino acid resolved from saccharides and protein were much mote than contents nea for browning reaction.

By means of constant- pressure molecular dynamics simulations, we studied the liquid- glass- crystalline transition of a system composed of Lennard- Jones particles with periodic boundary conditions. Atomic volume and enthalpy were calculated as functions of temperature during heating and cooling processes. The Wendt- Abraham ratio derived from radial distribution function and the angular distribution function characterizing short range order were analyzed to distinguish between liquid, glass and crystalline states. A liquid phase resulting from a slow heating of an initial fee crystal amorphized on fast quench, but it crystallized on slow quench. When slowly heated, the amorphous phase from fast quench crystallized into an fee structure. A system with free surface was shown to melt from the surface inward at a lower temperature than bulk system and to have a strong tendency for crystallization even during a fast quench from a liquid state.

Outdoor cultivation experiment was conducted with artificial seeds using free-living gametophytes and zoospores of Ecklonia cava to develop FLG (free-living gametophyte) seeding technique. Growth of thalli between FLG and zoospore seeding groups was compared monthly from May to October 2009 at culture farm in Wando, Korea. In September 2009, thalli in the FLG seeding experimental group were $35.9{\pm}0.8$ cm in length, $24.1{\pm}2.62$ g in weight, $2.32{\pm}0.26$ kg $m^{-1}$ in biomass and $22.0{\pm}2.8$ individuals $m^{-1}$ in density. There were no significant differences in length, weight, biomass and density between FLG and zoospore seeding group. Therefore, the FLG seeding technique could replace the zoospore seeding method which would eventually contribute in restoration and conservation of natural resources.
