Various extraction procedures were investigated using reference materials and samples to evaluate extraction efficiency and effectiveness. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) was used to measure total arsenic and to quantitate arsenic species when coupled to an HPLC (high pressure liquid chromatography). Arsenic species were extracted from rice flour (NIST SRM 1568a) with water/methanol mixtures using accelerated solvent extraction (ASE). Total arsenic extraction efficiency ranged from 42 to 64%, for water and various methanol concentrations. From spinach (NIST SRM 1570), freeze-dried apple, and rice flour (NIST SRM 1568a), arsenic species were extracted with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) at 100 ${^{\circ}C}$. Total arsenic extraction efficiency was 90% for spinach, 75% for freeze-dried apple, and 83% for rice flour. Enzymatic extraction with alpha-amylase and sonication resulted in extraction efficiency of 104% for rice flour, 98% for freeze-dried apple, and 7% for spinach. Chromatograms of arsenic species extracted by the optimum extraction methods were obtained, and the species were quantified. Arsenite (As(III)), arsenate (As(V)), dimethylarsinic acid (DMA), and monomethylarsonic acid (MMA) were found in the apple sample, and DMA and As(V) in the rice flour sample. As(V) and MMA were found in three herbal dietary supplement samples.

Fire blight in apple and pear orchards, caused by Erwinia amylovora, is a global problem. Ongoing outbreaks have occurred since 2015. In 2020, 744 orchards were infected compared with 43 orchards in 2015 in Korea. When are insufficient. In Korea, all host plants in infected orchards are buried deeply with lime to eradicate the E. amylovora outbreak within a few days. Apple trees with infected trunks and branches and twigs with infected leaves and infected blooms were collected from an apple orchard in Chungju, Chungbuk province, where fire blight occurred in 2020. We used these samples to investigate the population density and internal distribution of E. amylovora on infected branches and twigs during early season infections. Infected branches and twigs were cut at 10 cm intervals from the infected site, and E. amylovora was isolated from tissue lysates to measure population density (colony-forming unit [CFU]·mL^-1). The polymerase chain reaction was performed on genomic DNA using E. amylovora specific primers. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was performed to detect E. amylovora in asymptomatic tissue. The objective of these assays was to collect data relevant to the removal of branches from infected trees during early season infection. In infected branches, high densities of greater than 10⁶ CFU·mL^-1 E. amylovora were detected within 20 cm of the infected sites. Low densities ranging from 10² to 10⁶ CFU·mL^-1 E. amylovora were found in asymptomatic tissues at distances of 40 - 75 cm from an infection site.

The gaseous and particulate emissions from agricultural crop residues burning were investigated. The test residues included white soybean stem, pepper stem, apple branch, peach branch, pear branch, grape branch, sesame stem, perilla stem, and barley stem. Particulate emissions were dominated by fine particles (< $0.1{\mu}m$ in size). The highest $PM_{2.5}$ Emission factors were from barley stems (35.2 g/kg), and the lowest from pepper stems (7.9 g/kg). Emission factors for CO, NO, and VOCs were 146~305 g/kg, 4.94~15.02 g/kg, 27.4~353.3 g/kg, respectively. Benzene played an important role in VOCs emissions from biomass burning.

A green biosynthesis method is described for the preparation of Polyaniline (PANI)-cerium dioxide ($CeO_2$) nanocomposites in different media via in-situ oxidative polymerization procedure. The effect of various media including use of HCl, Lemon Juice, Beverage, White Vinegar, Verjuice and Apple vinegar extracts on the particles size, morphology as well as the conductivity of $PANI-CeO_2$ nanocomposites was investigated. The electron-withdrawing feature of $CeO_2$ increases doping level of PANI and enhances electron delocalization. These cause a significantly blue shift of C = C stretching band of quinoid from $1570cm^{-1}$ to $1585cm^{-1}$. The optical properties of the pure material and polymeric nanocomposites as well as their interfacial interaction in nanocomposite structures analyzed by UV-visible spectroscopy. The DC electrical conductivity (${\sigma}$) of as-prepared HCl doped PANI and a $PANI-CeO_2$ nanocomposite measured by a four-probe method at room temperature was studied.

Warts and barks of apple trees were vector of White rot. Two devices removing warts and barks for the use of pest control on apple trees were developed and evaluated in this study, and their results are as follows ; 1. A total of 148 warts were examined to determine the average size. About 35 percent of the examined warts were 6~8mm long, 4~8mm wide and 4~6mm thick in size. About 30 percent of the examined warts were 4~6mm long, 2~4mm wide and 6~8mm thick in size. 2. Seventy-one percent of the examined barks removed were 4~8mm in thickness. 3. A blade with 30 degree of cutting angle required 3 to 22 percent less cutting energy than those with 15 and 45 degrees of cutting angles. 4. The cutting torque decreased from 31 N-cm to 12 N-cm with an increase of cutting speed from 26cm/s to 104cm/s for a feeding speed of 0.31 mm/s with the blade angle of 30 degrees. 5. The cutting torque increased from 6N-cm to 32N-cm with an increase of branch diameter from 6mm to 14mm for a feeding speed of 0.31 mm/s with the blade angle of 30 degrees. 6. Two devices mounted on a mower for removing warts and barks were evaluated and proved effective.

본 연구는 갈색날개매미충의 기계유유제 처리 방법별 부화율과 산란에 의한 사과 열매의 품질 변화에 대해 조사하였다. 기계유유제 처리 효과를 보면 기계유유제 20배를 도포한 것이 평균 0.57%로 가장 적은 부화율을 보였고, 분무한 가지에서는 평균 1%의 부화율을 보였다. 기계유유제를 50배 도포 처리시 부화율이 약 35%를 보인반면 분무처리는 약 77%를 보여 편차를 고려하면 무처리와 차이가 없는 것으로 보인다. 홍로와 후지 품종에서 갈색날개매미충이 산란한 결과지와 산란되지 않은 결과지에 이듬해 사과 열매가 결실되어도 과실의 품질 차이는 통계적 유의성은 없었다. 또한 갈색날개매미충의 산란에 의한 가지의 부러짐도 없었고, 결과지 생육도 통계적 유의성은 없었다.

펙틴에서 곁사슬의 정도가 다르게 제조된 사과펙틴과 토마토펙틴을 이용하여, 낮은 층밀림속도에서부터 높은 층밀림속도까지 적용이 가능한 유변학적 모델을 구하고자 하였다. 지수법칙모델, Cross 모델, Carreau 모델을 실험값에 비교하여 본 결과, Carreau 모델이 가장 적합하였다. 모델식에서 얻어진 층밀림속도 0에서의 점도$({\eta}_0)$는 곁사슬의 정도가 큰 사과펙틴의 경우에는 곁사슬이 많은 sample II가 적은 sample I보다 크게 나은 반면에 곁사슬이 적은 토마토 펙틴은 큰 차이를 보이지 않았으며, 그 값은 사과펙틴보다 크게 나타났다. 모델식의 계수를 펙틴농도에 대한 지수함수로 표현하여 펙틴에서 곁사슬의 영향을 살펴보았다. 즉, 곁사슬이 많은 사과펙틴은 토마토펙틴에 비해 유변학적 성질이 큰 차이를 보이고 있으며 모델로 설명할 수 있다.

Purpose: The Korea Oral Biobank Network (KOBN) was established in 2021 as a branch of the Korea Biobank Network under the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to provide infrastructure for the collection, management, storage, and utilization of human bioresources from the oral cavity and associated clinical data for basic research and clinical studies. Methods: To address the need for the unification of the biobanking process, the KOBN organized the concept review for all the processes. Results: The KOBN established standard operating procedures for the collection, processing, and storage of oral samples. Conclusions: The importance of collecting high-quality bioresources to generate accurate and reproducible research results has always been emphasized. A standardized procedure is a basic prerequisite for implementing comprehensive quality management of biological resources and accurate data production.

In Korea, kiwifruit is grown within a limited region on the southern coast where the climate is warm. Since the yellow - fleshed kiwifruit variety, 'Hort16A', first became commercially available, we have focused on breeding additional yellow - fleshed kiwifruits. Here, we describe the cultivar 'Goldone', which originated from 'Red Princess' and is characterized by red coloration around the fruit core. Conventional field crosses were performed in 2003, and permission for final release of 'Goldone' was obtained in 2011. This cultivar is very productive, with an average fruit weight of 129 g, which is 39% heavier than that of the cultivar 'Hayward'. 'Goldone' is harvested in late October, approximately 165 - 170 days after anthesis. In general, 'Goldone' has approximately eight flowers per fruiting shoot; these flowers must be thinned before blooming for commercial production. 'Goldone' was registered at the Korean Seed & Variety Service in 2014 for plant variety protection rights (grant no. 4835).
