Visiting k-combinations of a set S which has n elements is the general representation of many engineering problems. The performance of algorithms visiting all combinations, however, dramatically degrades with growing cases and the time to evaluate each combination. This paper presents the method to enhance the performance of these algorithms by a CUDA method. The experimental results show that the parallel algorithm running on GPU is approximately 900 times faster than the serial algorithm running on CPU.

Conditions for production, fusion and reversion of protoplasts of Aspergillus niger were investigated, and an attempt was made to enhance fusion frequency. Auxotrophic mutants and morphological mutants were induced by U.V. irradiation $(9.9\;erg/mm^2,\;13min)$ on Aspergillus niger. Maximum yield of protoplasts was obtained from 21 hr cultured mycelia by using 1% driselase in 0.6 M KCl or 0.6 M $NH_4Cl$ as osmotic stabilizer. The optimal temperature for mycelium digestion was $30^{\circ}C$, and the optimal pH was 6.0. Protoplasts produced at different digestion period showed heterogeneity in size and vacuole content. Maximal frequency of protoplasts reversion was obtained on 0.6 M KCl stabilized agar medium at pH 5.0. Reversion frequencies of protoplasts produced for 3 hr and 1 hr mycelial digestion were 8.0% and 15.3%, respectively. The optimal concentration of PEG(m.w. 6000) for protoplast fusion was 30%, and that of $CaCl_2$ was $1{\sim}50\;mM$. The optimal pH and period for the reaction of PEG solution were 8.0 and 10 minutes, respectively. Fusion frequencies between auxotrophic protoplasts produced for 3 hr-mycelial digestion were $0.06{\sim}0.42%$, and those for 1 hr-mycelial digestion were $0.09{\sim}0.54%$.

Microwave-assisted extraction (MAE), which is known as less time and less solvent than current extraction methods, was applied to hydrocarbons extraction from irradiated soybean. Among the transported agricultural products, soybean was selected as representative samples for possible application of irradiated treatment and identification of radiation-induced markers. Using 4 kGy-irradiated soybean, different microwave extraction conditions (extraction time and microwave power) were applied and the changes in hydrocarbon concentrations were monitored. The predicted optimum extracted condition for hydrocarbon analysis of soybean was found to be microwave extraction with a microwave power of 97 W and extraction time of 2.2 min. This extraction time was significantly lower compared to the common extraction time of 12-24hr.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of Photochemotherapy using a combination of erythrosine and standard halogen dental curing lights on the viability of Streptococcus mutans in the biofilm phase. To investigate the optimum treatment parameters, the researchers controlled the concentration of erythrosine, light irradiation time and the treatment time of erythrosine. The higher concentration of erythrosine (0, 10, 20, 40, 80 M) in the presence of light irradiation created greater effects in reducing the viability of S. mutans. The results showed a statistically significant difference among the antimicrobial effects in 20, 40, 80 M erythrosine. The higher irradiation time of light (0, 5, 15, 30, 60, 75s) in the presence of erythrosine showed greater effects in reducing the viability of S. mutans. There was statistically significant difference in 30, 60, 75 seconds. The higher treatment time of erythrosine (0, 1, 2.5, 5min) in the presence of erythrosine created greater effects on reduction of S. mutans viability. Statistically significant differences were found between 2.5 and 5 minutes of erythrosine treatment time. The results of this study showed that the photochemotherapy on S. mutans using erythrosine and the halogen dental curing lights conventionally used in dental clinics is effective in the condition of 20-40 M erythrosine concentration, irradiation time over 30 seconds, and erythrosine treatment time over 2.5 minutes.

In this study, proteolytic enzymatic treatment conditions for Korean red ginseng were examined to increase the extraction yield. Commercially available proteases were screened to obtain high protein and carbohydrate yield. The optimal dosage and reaction time for Alcalase, the chosen protease, were found to be 2.0% (w/w) and 1.5 h, respectively. Treatment with optimal conditions of Alcalase increased solid yield, total phenolic content and gensenosides content by 57.6, 81.8, and 33.8%, respectively, over levels in non-treated Korean red ginseng. Antioxidative activities evaluated by free radical scavenging activity, cation radical scavenging activity and reducing power were exactly similar between Alcalase-treated and non-treated extracts.

A facile synthesis of 4-(aminomethyl)cyclohexanecarboxylic acid (AMCA) from recyclable methyl 4-formylbenzoate (MFB) was described. In particular, we investigated the best process variables such as catalyst, hydrogen pressure, reaction temperature, and reaction time for AMCA conversion from AMBA through hydrogenation reaction. The best conditions were found to be as follows: the catalyst as [5% Pd/C, 5% Pt/C, 5% Rh/C (1 : 1 : 1)] which is a composite catalyst, the pressure as 30 bar, the reaction time as 8 hours and the reaction temperature at $130^{\circ}C$. Under the condition, a 90% yield (purity 99.9%) for the mass production of AMCA was achieved.

The nutritional requirement and cultural condition such as carbon and nitrogen sources, cultural temperature, initial pH, cultural time and aeration for the production of endocellular cytosine deaminase from Aspergillus fumigatus IFO 5840 were investigated. The cultural broth giving maximum cytosine deaminase yield was found to consist of 2% glucose as a carbon source and 1% yeast extract and 0.1% peptone as a nitrogen source. Optimal initial pH of the culture broth was pH 8.5 and the enzyme production in the cell usually reached a maximum after 28 hours of cultivation in the 500ml shaking flask containing 100ml broth at $30^{\circ}C$. The endoenzyme production of the used strain was inhibited by inorganic nitrogen, but activated by orgainc nitrogen, yeast extract.

This study was investigated the changes of the properties of matter such as the gel formation of the combined fish based on the mixed rate between the ocean jumbo squid and Alaska pollock surimi, and compared the relationships between the gel formation and water holding capacity. The changes of the gel formation based on 20 min fish grinding time and $2.5\%$ salt concentration according to the mixed rate was thought as the optimal addition limit. There was no significant function of gel product more than $20\%$ Jumbo squid meat. The more squid meat in the mixed meat could make the lower breaking stress but 7:3 rate of pollock : squid could retain breaking strain. The effect of the moisture content on mixed fish meat was studied and the drastic decrease of the gel formation and water holding capacity was indicated in $78\%$.

Protease-catalyzed liberation of sialyloligosaccharide from raw egg yolk was investigated in biphasic system, water-immiscible hexane system. Biphasic system 1, in which water was the continuous phase, was better than the opposite biphasic system ll in sialyloligosaccharide liberation. The optimal conditions of temperature, water content and reaction time were $30^{\circ}C$, 20% and 12 hours, respectively. Protease activity was strongly influenced by the amount of water present in the reaction mixture. The liberation of sialyloligosaccharide was accelerated by protease pre-treatment at $30^{\circ}C$ in 0.2 M NaCl solution, prior to addition of hexane (Biphasic system I).

For effective utilization of apple pomace, protopectinase(PPase) produced from Bacillus subtilis IFO 12113 was used for pectin extraction from apple pomace. Optimal conditions for enzyme treatment were found at $60^{\circ}$, pH 7.8, 48 hours with 20 : 1 ratio of substrate to enzyme. The yield of extracted pectin from water-alcohol insoluble pectin by enzyme at optimal condition was 34.3%. The purity and methoxyl content of extracted pectin by PPase at optimal condition were measured as 52.9% and 2.75%, respectively. Intrinsic viscosity and average molecular weight of extracted pectin by enzymatic method were 0.178 ml/g and $4.9{\times}10^3$, respectively.
