This study was conducted to measure and analyze the changes in paraspinal muscles of acute and chronic low back pain patients using MRI, and to provide clinical basic data for diagnosis and treatment for low back pain. For this purpose, 20 patients with acute low back pain frome August 2012 to January 2013 which occurred within 12 weeks, and 20 patients with chronic low back pain that progressed over 12 weeks, were chosen as subjects, and their MRI measurements were compared with one another. As a result, in relation to in the fatty degeneration ratio of the left spine and right spine, there were significant differences in erector spinae and multifidus(p<.001), and in relation to the Fat Infiltration ratio between all the groups, there were significant differences in psoas major, erector spinae and multifidus between the acute low back pain patient group and the chronic low back pain patient group(p<.001). In the post-hoc test, multifidus and erector spinae in the acute low back pain group and chronic low back pain group showed the highest Fat Infiltration ratio. The serious Fat Infiltration of multifidus and erector spinae in the chronic low back pain group led to weakened strength of muscles that stabilize the spine. In conclusion, it is considered that this study would present important data and basis in making acute and chronic low back pain patients pay more attention to multifidus and psoas major during rehabilitation exercise, and selecting a rehabilitation exercise program.

The principal objective of this study was to evaluate the physicochemical characteristics of brown rice Dasik prepared with different 5 levels(0, 25, 50, 75, 100%) of modified potato starch powder. We assessed the general compositions, Hunter's color values, the mechanical characteristics, and conducted a sensory evaluation analysis of brown rice Dasik at room temperature($20^{\circ}C$). The more modified potato starch powder composition was increased, the content of ash, protein and fat were significantly decreased(p<0.05). We noted that the luminance of samples were increased the more modified potato starch powder composition was increased, but in Hunter's a and b values were decreased. With regard to the mechanical properties of the Dasik samples, we noted significant differences in hardness, gumminess, chewiness but no differences in springiness, cohesiveness and adhesiveness were detected. The more modified potato starch powder composition was increased, the more the score of hardness, gumminess and chewiness were higher. The results of sensory evaluation showed that there were significant differences on the color, sweetness, mouth-feel, chewiness, overall quality of the Dasik samples(p<0.05). The score of brown rice Dasik with 50%(w/w) modified potato starch(BM2) in color, mouth-feel, chewiness, overall quality were significantly increased than those of other samples.

식품 냉동은 식품에서 열을 빼앗아 식품내의 수분을 액체에서 고체로 상변화시키는 방법 즉, 식품의 온도를 저하시켜 조직내의 자유수를 병결정화 함으로써 미생물 성장과 효소 활성의 억제로 식품의 품질저하를 최대한 방지하는 데 목적을 지닌 품질보존의 수단으로 식품의 장기 보존을 위한 가장 안전한 방법 중의 하나로 알려져 있다. 이와같이 동결식품이 정확히 처리되었으면 식품 본래의 향미, 색, 조직감 및 영양가가 신선상태 그대로 유지되어야 할 것이다. 그러나 식육의 경우 냉동냉장시 드립발생, 단백질 변성 및 지방산화 등을 초래함으로써 품질이 저하하게 된다. 특히, 식육의 변성과 연관된 생화학적 반응은 -2$0^{\circ}C$ 이상의 동결온도에서도 액상으로 잔존하는 식육내에 있는 수분 때문에 일시적으로 정지되거나 감소되지만 저장기간의 경과에 따라 점차적으로 진행이 지속된다.

Haw (Crataegus pinnatifida Bunge) has been used in traditional medicine for treating various ailments such as obesity and digestive trouble in Far East countries, including Korea. The present study was carried out to investigate the effects of feral haw on hepatic functional enzymes in dyslipidemic rats. Four groups of male rats (Sprague Dawley strain) were fed different diets for 5 weeks: NND (normal-nondyslipidemic diet) group, NNDH (normal-nondyslipidemic diet + haw extract) group, CDD (control-dyslipidemic diet) group and DDH (dyslipidemic diet + haw extract) group. ALP (alkaline phosphatase), LDH (lactate dehydrogenase), AST (aspartate aminotransferase) and ALT (alanine aminotransferase) activities were significantly higher in the CDD group than the NND group. However, haw extract supplement significantly reduced hepatic functional enzyme activities compared to the CDD group. Lipid deposition of the DDH group decreased compared to the CDD group. The size of adipose tissue decreased significantly in the DDH group compared to the CDD group. These results suggest that feral haw could be used as a food resource and functional food material.

Microstructure of milk powder and cheese made from milk powder were observed by electron microscope. Freeze dried milk powder showed apple-like appearance. The cheese made from freeze dried milk powder had relatively flat surface and homogenous deposit in compare with classical processed cheese. Imported milk powder also indicated similar surface as well as freeze dried milk powder, however, the cheese made from imported milk powder had somewhat coarse surface structures with the spaces between casein matrix and deposit. Commericial milk powder showed irregular shape in size and coagulum which were possibly denatured in the course of drying. The cheese made from commercial powder indicted irregular and small deposit and porous structure. The porousity of the cheese seemed to be influenced by the degree of heat treatment. Denatured protein would be less dispersive than native in presence of polyphosphates. Fat globule and protein micelle of cheese made from skim milk powder get very adjacent to each other and showed compactness of micelles. It is thought that melting mechanism of skim milk powder was different from the melting of typical processed cheese.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of phenobarbital(PB) on hepatotoxic effect of carbon tetrachloride($CCl_4$) which induces centrilobular necrosis in liver. Rats were injected intraperitoneally $CCl_4$ dissolved in olive oil by a dose of 0.4mg/kg. For change related to PB pretreatment, rats were injected $CCl_4$ 0.4mg/kg after PB pretreatment. The liver samples were taken in 6, 12, 24, 48, 72, and 120 hours after $CCl_4$ and/or FB injection. Extracted liver tissue was examined with light and electron microscopes. The results were sumarized as follows : 1. Light microscopic findings : In $CCl_4$ group, centrilobular necrosis developed from 6 hours after injection, was the most severe in 48 hours, and recovered after 72 hours. In addition to necrosis, fatty change and pale cell change were accompanied. In PB-$CCl_4$ group, necrosis occurred from 6 hours after $CCl_4$ injection and continued to 72 hours, and the degree of necrosis was more severe than that of $CCl_4$ group and pale cell change was decreased. 2. Electron microscopic findings: In $CCl_4$ group, the early principal change was clumping and vesicular dilatation of endoplasmic reticulum. In PB-$CCl_4$ group, the degenerative change of endoplasmic reticulum was aggrevated and the mitochondria also revealed severe degenerative change. According to the results, it was revealed that $CCl_4$ hepatotoxicity primarily began with the damage of endoplasimic reticulum, then damage of other cell organelles and cell necrosis followed, and these cytotoxic effects were aggrevated by PB pretreatment.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of pH adjustment and the addition of cryoprotectants on the storage properties of chicken breast surimi. Surimi as a control was prepared with Alaska pollack by two times of washing treatment and addition of cryoprotectants(4% sugar, 5% sorbitol and 0.3% polyphosphate). Three types of surimi were manufactured by different cryoprotectant conditions(T1: 5% sorbitol+0.3% polyphosphate, T2: 4% sugar+5% sorbitol+0.3% polyphosphate, T3: 2% salt+4% sugar+5% sorbitol+0.3% polyphosphate) and frozen after adjusting the surimi to pH 11.0. The amino acid and saturated fatty acid composition were significantly higher in the control. EAA(essential amino acid), FAA(amino acid in relation to flavor), SAAA(amino acid in relation to saccarinity) and FRAA (fragrant amino acid) were significantly higher in the control. The TBARS(thiobarbituric acid reactive substances) and VBN(volatile basic nitrogen) were increased with storage times. TBARS and VBN values were significantly higher in the control and T3 than the other treatments. The VBN was significantly higher in control and T3 than other surimi samples. Chicken breast surimi adjusted to pH 11.0 had higher in microorganisms than the control, and T1 sample had the highest total plate count. Sensory evaluations were significantly higher in the control and T3 than the other samples. Especially, the overall acceptability of T3 was similar to the control.
