The monoclonal antibody against a novel protein, which was induced in the roots of rice seedlings treated with NaCl, was produced. Oryzea sativa L. cv. Annapruna grains were sown on clean sands and grown for 10days and then the seedlings were soaked in 50mM NaCl aqueous solution. In 48hrs of the NaCl treatment, the roots were collected and homogenated with liquid nitrogen and extraction buffer. The homogenate was centrifuged and to the supernatant 75％ ammonium sulfate was added to pre-cipitate proteins. From these proteins a novel protein was purified through DEAE-ion chromatography and FPLC(Phenyl column). This protein appeared as a single band in the native electrophoresis. Using this protein as antigen, monoclonal antibody was produced. Five cell lines that secreted antibodies specifically bound to this protein were constructed.

This study was conducted on a sampling of 700 mixed college students from seven different schools nationwide by written questionnaire to evaluate the value system of convenience foods among Korean college students. Korean students put value on the following categories of convenience foods in order; convenience, taste, price, appearance, appliance to daily life, variety, locality, nutritional value, originality, improvement required, cleanliness and tradition. Significant differences between the sexes occurred in categories as cleanliness and convenience, since females considered convenience foods as convenient but not so clean (safe to eat). This study also conducted factor analysis on 24 individual convenient foods. Noodles laid emphasis on nutritional value; where refrigerated foods, ready to eat (RE) side dishes, on-the-spot kimbab, and sandwiches focused on cleanliness. Noodles. cereal, and instant soup focused on price. Frozen pizza, noodles, retort, RE meat, ham, fish cakes were dependent on locality and traditionality. Noodles, instant food, and packed kimchi scored highly on convenience. Frozen fried rice, retort, instant porridge, instant rice, RE meat, cereal, instant soup, and RE side dishes on consumption on a regular basis. Cereal, refrigerated foods, and RE side dishes laid emphasis on taste. Noodles, instant rice, cereal, ham, and RE side dishes focused on variety. Retort, RE meat, ramen, cereal, ham, and on the spot sandwiches looked to originality, while canned foods was recognized as ‘needing improvement’.

In this study, we examined food intake, sodium intake, and satiety rate for different methods of consuming soup. Healthy young women (n=50) participated in this study. The subjects ate cooked rice and soup using a method that they preferred and then they were assigned into separate intake groups based on how they consumed their rice and soup. One group consisted of women that ate their soup and cooked rice separately (separate intake group, n=30). The second group consisted of the women who mixed the rice and the soup prior to consumption (mixed intake group, n=20). The mixed intake group consumed significantly more food (p<0.001) and sodium (p<0.05) than the separate intake group. Because of the high water content and ease of swallowing for the mixed intake method, the eating rate of the mixed intake group (42.5 g/min) was significantly higher than that of the separate intake group (28.8 g/min) (p<0.01). However, despite consuming 79.5 g more food at lunch, the rates of satiety were not significantly different before and after eating between the mixed intake and separate intake group. Therefore, eating rate, consumption norms and concept of "clean one's bowl" may influence food intake and sodium intake. Although more studies are needed, these data suggest eating cooked rice and soup separately may help to control obesity and hypertension.

The outbreaks of blast, bacterial blight and viral diseases have been increasing in early maturing rice cultivating areas in the central northern regions, recently. As the occurrence of sudden insects pests and disasters increases due to global climate warming, it is urgent to develop a variety of disaster-tolerant, high-quality varieties in response. This study was carried out to elucidate the characteristics of early-maturing, high-quality and multiple disease resistant rice variety, Cheolweon109 that was adapted to cultivation in the mid-mountainous regions of the central northern regions. Cheolweon109 was derived from a cross between Suweon546, medium maturing variety, and Sangju44 which is early maturing and resistant to blast, bacterial blight and rice stripe virus. The heading date of Cheolweon109 was July 30, 3 days later than Odae. The culm length of Cheolweon109 was 79 cm, which was about 5 cm taller than Odae, and the ripening ratio was 85.1%, which was 10% higher than that of Odae. This variety had 5.54 MT/ha of milled rice productivity, which was 99% of the Odae. Although Cheolweon109 was tall, it was strong against lodging. It was strong against bacterial blight (K1, K2, K3 race), rice stripe virus, and the pre-harvest sprouting which rate was 2.4%. The appearance of the grains of rice was clean, the glossiness was 70.6, and the head rice ratio was 95.3% high. Because Cheolweon109 had superior disease resistance, disaster resistance, and high quality than Odae, it was expected that can be used to expand the diversity of early maturing and high-quality rice varieties in central northern regions.

Analytical method of carbofuran (2,3-dihydro-2, 2-dimethyl-7-benzofuranyl methyl carbamate) residues and its persistence in rice seeds, rice seedlings, rice plants and soils were studied by gas-liquid chromatographic analysis using electron capture detector. 1. The effective column material for clean-up is Florisil (5% $H_2O$)+Alumina (4% $H_2O$)+absorbent mixture with rinsing the first 300l of eluants to remove impurities in the column materials. 2. The method of applying an gelatin encapsulated carbofuran to the root zone of rice plant is the longest persistence in its residues. 3. By seed treatment, no carbofuran residues were detected in rice seeds and seedlings. 4. The amounts of carbofuran residues in rice seedlings is in proportion to the soaking time of rice seedlings in carbofuran solution rather than the concentration of the chemical. 5. Applying carbofuran by root zone has the higher and the loger residual effect than broadcast. 6. Persistence of carbofuran in the high clay content soil is longer than in the low clay content soil. 7. No carbofuran residue was detected in rough rice at havesting time.

Phylogenetic and amino acid sequence analysis indicated that rice allene oxide synthase-1 (OsAOS1) is CYP74, and is clearly distinct from CYP74B, C and D subfamilies. Regio- and stereo-chemical analysis revealed the dual substrate specificity of OsAOS1 for (cis,trans)-configurational isomers of 13(S)- and 9(S)-hydroperoxyoctadecadienoic acid. GC-MS analysis showed that OsAOS1 converts 13(S)- and 9(S)-hydroperoxyoctadecadi(tri)enoic acid into their corresponding allene oxide. UV-Visible spectral analysis of native OsAOS1 revealed a Soret maximum at 393 nm, which shifted to 424 nm with several clean isobestic points upon binding of OsAOS1 to imidazole. The spectral shift induced by imidazole correlated with inhibition of OsAOS1 activity, implying that imidazole may coordinate to ferric heme iron, triggering a heme-iron transition from high spin state to low spin state. The implications and significance of a putative type II ligand-induced spin state transition in OsAOS1 are discussed.

The objectives of this study were to determine the recognition of food waste, school lunch leftovers and satisfaction toward school lunch in middle school students in Seoul. Four hundred students were surveyed beginning April, 2007. The results are summarized as follows. The primary means in which students learned about environmental pollution were 'video media' (54.7% males, 39.2% females) and 'by teachers' (23.2% males, 33.0% females). The primary effects on food habits after participating in the school lunch program were 'having a balanced diet' (23.3%) in the females, and 'decreased intake of junk food' (24.9%) in the males. The serving sizes for cooked rice, soup, and meat were higher in the females (3.46, 3.46, and 2,91, respectively) than the males (3.18, 3.29, and 2.73, respectively). The primary school lunch leftovers for one week were cooked rice (4.55), meat (4.35), kimchi (3.84), fish (3.60), vegetables (3.38), and soup (3.08). Importance-performance analysis of the school lunch meal indicated that good taste had high importance, but low performance. Nutritional balance, food safety, cleanliness of tableware and supplies, clean uniforms of employees, and cleanliness of the dining area had both high importance and performance.

Concrete, as a construction material, needs suitable reinforcement for tensile region due to weak tensile strength. Many researches on cement reduction have been attempted for $CO_2$ emissions during cement clinker production. In this paper engineering properties of concrete enhanced with polypropylene fiber (PPF) and rice husk ash (RHA) are evaluated. Fiber volume ratios of 0.125~0.375 and RHA replacement ratio of 0~20% are considered for concrete mixture. Lots of test including compressive, split, flexural and the related crack width, impact energy, and pull out test are performed and the results are evaluated considering the fiber ratios, fiber length and RHA replacement. Fiber and RHA ratios have dominant effects on tensile and compressive characteristics respectively, and the concrete with 0.125% of PPF and 10% of RHA shows the most effective enhancement for engineering properties. Appropriate addition of RHA and PPF are very effective both for engineering property enhancement and clean technology.

This study was performed to assess the microbiological quality of kimbap (rice balls rolled in laver) prepared in two conditions (normal condition or clean, sanitized condition) and to support a practical application to identify critical control points (CCPs) in the preparation and cooking processes of kimbap. Kimbap, raw materials of kimbap, utensils (knives, cutting board, and kimbal which is made of bamboo), and hands of food handlers were examined microbiologically. Airborne microbes in the kitchens were also evaluated. Escherichia coli, Salmonella and Staphylococcus aureus were not detected in all samples. The aerobic bacteria and coliform bacteria levels of all samples in clean, sanitized condition were much lower than those in normal condition. More aerobic bacteria and coliform bacteria were counted in unheated raw materials of kimbap than in heated raw materials. In both conditions, the levels of airborne microbes of the kitchens were satisfactory. The aerobic bacteria and coliform bacteria of kimbap prepared in clean, sanitized condition were one hundredth levels of those of kimbap prepared in normal condition. However, fecal coliforms were detected even in the kimbap prepared in clean, sanitized condition. The results indicate that microbiological contamination of kimbap may be mainly originated from the contaminated unheated raw materials, utensils, and hands of food handlers, and also possible cross-contamination during preparation. The CCPs for kimbap preparation and cooking were handling of unheated raw materials, cleaning and sanitizing utensils, and hand washing of food handlers.
