Rheological properties of waxy and non-waxy rice starch solutions were evaluated with a narrow gap rotational and Cannon Fenske viscometers. The gelatinized rice starch solutions containing 0.2-1.0% starch displayed pseudoplastic flow behavior. At higher starch level, degree of pseudoplasticity of waxy rice starch solutions increased, while that of non-waxy rice did not changed apparently. The consistency coefficient (K) of non-waxy rice starch solutions increased with increasing gelatinization temperature, but waxy rice starch solutions remained constant, and in alkaline aqueous solutions both of them showed increasing K values. The value of K increased exponentially with an increase in concentration. The effect of the temperature on the viscosity of the solutions followed Arrhenius' type equation, and the activation energies were in the range of 3.675-3.775 kcal/g-mol that were near to that of pure water. The changes of reduced viscosity with concentration were followed Huggin's equation and the values of intrinsic viscosity and interaction coefficient were 0.78-1.59 dl/g and 0.67-2.75, respectively.

The present experiments were undertaken to find out the effects of ova and cummulus cells on the motiliy and movement of mouse sperms in a capillary tube modified from the microtube culture system (Cho, 1974). The results obtained were as follows: 1. The motility of the mouse sperms cultured in vitro was decreased gradually as the culture period was prolonged or the concentration of sperms was diluted with the culture medium. 2. The ova whose cummulus cells were removed have some effects of reducing the sperm motility, but this effect seems to disappear at 8 hours of culture, whereas ova-cummulus cells complex showed a motility supprression effect only after 8 hours of culture. 3. Cummulus cells or ova-cummulus complex stimulated the movement of the sperm through a capillary tube by some degree. It is, therefore, assumed that cummulus cells secrete some factors which induce the movement of the sperm toward them.

Immobilized cells of Aspergillus niger was employed to produce citric acid by fermentation of milk factory waste water. A. niger ATCC 9142 as a citric acid production strain was cultured for 3 days and was entrapped with Ca-alginate bead about 2.5∼3.5 mm. The optimal pH and temperature were estimated to be 3.0 and $30^{\circ}C$, respectively. Dilution rate for fermentation was calculated to be $0.025 h^{－1}$ . Maximum amount of citric acid was obtained at 4.5 g/$\ell$ with the optimized fermentation condition. The yield of citric acid produced by immobilized A. niger ATCC 9143 was 70.3%. The yield was increased by 20% with immobilized cell, compared to that of the shake flask culture. Hence, the milk factory waste water is worthy to be used for the substrate of citric acid fermentation.

Rheological properties of gelatinized chestnut starch solution were investigated with a narrow gap rotational viscometer. The starch solutions at 1.2-1.8% concentration showed pseudoplastic behaviour with yield stress. At higher concentrations (1.65 and 1.8%), the starch solution showed more pseudoplastic tendency and time-dependent characteristics. Values of yield stress were small and independent of concentrations 1.2, 1.35 and 1.5%. Significant increase of yield stress was observed at 1.65% concentration. Consistency index was exponentially dependent on concentration and temperature. The activation energy for 1.65% starch solution was about 5 Kcal/g.mol.

Acetic acid bacteria strains were isolated from a variety of fermented foods and fallen fruits. Among them, the strain MAK88, whose acetic acid fermentation ability, acid-tolerance, and alcohol-tolerance were high, was selected and identified as Acetobacter orientalis. A seed culture of A. orientalis MAK88 was inoculated into onion juice, and the optimum conditions of acetic acid fermentation was investigated. The optimum initial concentration of ethanol in onion juice was 5% (v/v) and in that condition, acidity was 4.31% at 144 h of fermentation. The optimum initial concentration of acetic acid was 1% and the final acidity was 5.32%. The optimum fermentation temperature was determined to be $28^{\circ}C$. The most appropriate preparation method of onion juice was to heat the onion at $121^{\circ}C$ for 15 min and produce juice with pressure followed by filtering, and then sterilization at $121^{\circ}C$ for 15 min. Prepared onion juice was used for fermentation without dilution.

By reviewing relatively recent theory of coercive control, which considers gender as a key concept to conceptualize domestic violence, this article explores battered women's experiences with police responses and institutional law enforcement. Using data and interviews from Korea Women's Hotline, this article analyzes the effects of state intervention which fails to support battered women and sends a message to the community that domestic violence is not such a serious crime. Specifically, this study found some problematic responses and attitudes of police and legal system: first, police is equating domestic violence with physical attacks or serious harms. Second, police and law enforcement personnel blame victims based on her gender performance or gender roles. Third, by individualizing the problem of domestic violence, state intervention ignores important structural factors that cause and perpetuate it. Finally, police and the justice system disempower and discourage battered women by exacerbating victim's fears and risks. Viewing domestic violence as a liberty crime, this study concludes that enhanced understanding of the nature of domestic violence only can contribute to solving the problem and protecting women's human rights.

The demand for probiotic products has been steadily increasing, and Lactobacillus strains are widely used and are currently the most popular probiotics. Optimizing culture conditions for Lactobacillus production for use as probiotics will enhance their profitability by reducing production costs and time. Statistical analysis using response surface methodology revealed the following optimal sets of independent variables: 22.55 h (cultivation time), 25℃ (cultivation temperature), and 3.41% (w/w, prebiotics concentration) for Lactobacillus acidophilus; 24 h, 30.86℃, and 2% (w/w) for Lactiplantibacillus plantarum; 66.67 h, 35℃, and 3.41% (w/w) for Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus. Actual outcomes using predicted optimal conditions for Lactobacillus strains have been confirmed to closely match predicted results. This study will provide valuable guidelines for high yield Lactobacillus production.

The distribution patterns of Chromophoric Dissolved Organic Matter (CDOM) and the chemical characteristics of CDOM in the Seomjin river estuary were investigated in March, June and July 2012 in order to determine the spatial and temporal variability of CDOM along the salinity gradient considering the effects of mixing, nutrients and Chl a. The average CDOM values were $1.0{\pm}0.3m^{-1}$, $1.3{\pm}0.4m^{-1}$, and $1.4{\pm}0.3m^{-1}$ in March, June and July, respectively. A high concentration of CDOM (greater than $1.5m^{-1}$) was found at the head of the river which decreased towards the river mouth to as low as less than $0.5m^{-1}$. The average concentrations of CDOM increased from the dry season (March and June) to the wet season (July), and the average slope values ($S_{300-500}$), which were used as indicators of CDOM characteristics and sources, were in the range of $0.013-0.018m^{-1}$. The CDOM and $S_{300-50}$ values showed that not only the concentration of CDOM but also the chemical properties of DOM clearly changed between upstream and downstream in the Seomjin river. CDOM and FDOM showed a negative correlation with salinity ($R^2$ > 0.8), and CDOM was positively correlated with FDOM. Furthermore, the mixing pattern of CDOM was confirmed as conservative for all seasons. The main environmental factors influencing the concentration of CDOM was confirmed as conservative for all seasons. The main environmental factors influencing the concentration of CDOM were salinity (mixing) and water temperature, which meant the dilution of low CDOM seawater, was the controlling factor for the spatial distribution of CDOM. Increases in water temperature seemed to induce the production of CDOM during summer (June and July) through the biological degradation of DOM either by microbial activity or photo-degradation.
