This study was carried out to construct cold-tolerance characteristics. The RILs were developed from progenies of a cross between cold-susceptible Tongil-type rice variety, Milyang 23 and cold-tolerant Japonica rice variety, Stejaree 45 by single seed descent methods. The 175 RILs $(F_8)$ were evaluated for cold tolerance traits by field screening under cold-water irrigation. Frequency distribution of RILs in leaf discoloration, heading delay, culm length reduction and number of spikelets reduction displayed nearly normal distributions with transgressive segregations to either side of parents, while the spikelet fertility reduction and panicle exsertion at low-temperature showed the more or less skewed continuous distribution toward the susceptible parent. Higher heritabilities over $60\%$ were observed in leaf discoloration, spikelet fertility reduction, panicle exsertion, while relatively lower heritabilities less than $40\%$ were observed in culm length reduction, number of spikelets reduction and grain yield reduction. Some cold-tolerance RILs were selected effectively by cold water irrigation, which are expected to be good materials in breeding program for cold tolerance.

Effects of temperature, discoloration, and conditioning on garlic compositions before and after storage were examined. Proximate composition, soluble solids, pH, organic acids, and total sugars of all samples were not significantly different. Sugar contents were sucrose > fructose > glucose, and included such fructooligosaccharide as 1-kestose, 1-nystose, and 1-F-fructosyl nystose. Allicin contents in control, green discolored, and conditioned garlics were 647,9, 613.8, and 648.0 mg%, respectively. Thirty-two flavor compounds were identified by GC/MSD, including 11 sulfide compounds, 5 acids, and 3 aldehydes. Contents of sulfur compounds, including disulfide(di-propenyl), 2-thiophene methanethiol, thiophene, 3,4 dihydro-3-vinyl-1,2-dithiin, and 2-vinyl-4H-1,3-dithin, and water-soluble pectins in low temperature-stored garlic were higher than those in control, and decreased by conditioning or inducing green discoloration. These results show sulfur compounds and water-soluble pectins accumulated in low temperature stored-garlic, and are then converted into green pigments by alliinase in disintegrated garlic tissues.

The purpose of study was to investigate the effect of carbon dioxide laser on demineralization inhibition and rehardening of primary tooth enamel according to its power and irradiation time. 2mm diameter circle on the primary enamel surface was irradiated by defocused $10.6{\mu}m$ superpulse carbon dioxide laser at 6 Watt 2 seconds or at 3 Watt 8 seconds, before or after demineralization by Coca-Cola for 24 hours. Enamel surface change was measured by the Diagnodent. The results were analyzed with the former study results of 3 Watt 4 seconds and 6 Watt and 4 seconds. Diagnodent scores increased significantly after demineralization of irradiated enamel at 6W 2s or 3W 8s (P<0.05). Among the four groups, only 6W 4s group showed obvious demineralization inhibition effect. Diagnodent scores reduced significantly after 6W 2s or 3W 8s irradiation of demineralized enamel(P<0.05). Among the four groups, 6W 4s showed nearly complete rehardening effect, and the other groups showed partial effect. Tooth discoloration only occurred at 6W 4s. It seemed that caries inhibition and tooth discoloration depend on laser power more than total irradiation energy.

Responses of Pospam-injected chestnut and pine trees to drill wound were examined. Pospam was injected into the stem by just filling up the drill wound in September 10, 1993. The diameter of the injection wound were 0.5 and 1cm. DBH of chestnut trees and pine trees injected were 10, 15, 20 and 10, 20, 30cm, respectively. The results of tree response were examined in June, 1994. None of them showed any symptom of decay by the time. However, sapwood under the bark was remarkably discolored. The discoloration was more severe in 1cm-injection wound than in 0.5cm one. The severity of discoloration was not differed between species and among DBH applied. The sapwood split was longer in 1cm-injection wounded trees than in 0.5cm trees and longer in chestnut trees than in pine trees. From the split, callus grew out and almost closed the splits. In the trunk injection tested, the damage was mare severe in 1cm injection wound of chestnut trees than in any other combination.

The Unhyungung Water Container in the possession of the Seoul Museum of History in Korea is consisted of a calcareous marble developed laminated bedding and numerous argillaceous veinlets. This monument should need to conservation treatment because of black discoloration and seriously numerous cracks. Vertical and horizontal cracks in the monument are developed following stratification and argillaceous veinlets that are relatively low coherence between the rock materials. We have proved that the material inducing discoloration on the surface is carbon which is formed by deposited organic matters. As the result of the ultrasonic measurements, although highly surface weathering degree, the physical properties of the Unhyungung Water Container is confirmed slightly weathered state. The depths of cracks in the monument are calculated at maximum 60mm in some cracks completely penetrating into the wall and at minimum 9mm in the other crack. The cracks, developed following veinlet, are revealed that there penetrate from an outer wall to an inside wall for the monument. And most depths of cracks, developed following stratification, are calculated 20 to 30mm. This result will offer a significant data for conservation of the Unhyungung Water Container.

Barley kernel discoloration (KD) leads to substantial loss in value through downgrading and discounting of malting barley. The objective of this research is to investigate fungal distribution and varieties resistance to KD in Korean two-rowed barley. Several fungal organisms including Alternaria spp., Fusarium spp., Aspergillus spp., Epicoccum spp. and Rhizopus spp. were isolated from Korean two-rowed barley representing KD. The symptoms of KD were brown and black discolorations of the lemma and palea. The most frequently detected fungal species was Alternaria spp. which exhibited 69.1% and 72.2% in 2011 and 2012, respectively. Epicoccum spp., Fusarium spp., and Aspergillus spp. were also detected. Fusarium spp., primary pathogen of barley head blight, were rarely occurred in the 2011 and their occurrence increased to 4.7% in 2012. Twenty cultivars of Korean two-rowed barely were evaluated to KD. The average percentage of KD was 8.0-36.0% in 2011 and 5.2-36.6% in 2012. Two cultivars ('Sacheon 6' and 'Dajinbori') showed KD of 6.2% to 8.8% and determined resistant, however 'Samdobori' and 'Daeyeongbori' demonstrating KD of 22.2-36.6% were highly susceptible. 'Jinyangbori', 'Danwonbori', 'Sinhobori' and 'Kwangmaegbori' showing KD of less than 15% were moderately resistant cultivar.

Objectives: This study evaluated color differences (${\Delta}Es$) and translucency parameter changes (${\Delta}TPs$) of various computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) blocks after immersion in coffee. Materials and Methods: Eight CAD/CAM blocks and four restorative composite resins were evaluated. The CIE $L^{\ast}a^{\ast}b^{\ast}$ values of 2.0 mm thick disk-shaped specimens were measured using the spectrophotometer on white and black backgrounds (n = 6). The ${\Delta}Es$ and ${\Delta}TPs$ of one day, one week, and one month immersion in coffee or water were calculated. The values of each material were analyzed by two-way ANOVA and Tukey's multiple comparisons (${\alpha}=0.05$). The ${\Delta}Es$ after prophylaxis paste polishing of 1 month coffee immersion specimens, water sorption and solubility were also evaluated. Results: After one month in coffee, ${\Delta}Es$ of CAD/CAM composite resin blocks and restorative composites ranged from 1.6 to 3.7 and from 2.1 to 7.9, respectively, and ${\Delta}TPs$ decreased. The ANOVA of ${\Delta}Es$ and ${\Delta}TPs$ revealed significant differences in two main factors, immersion periods and media, and their interaction except for ${\Delta}Es$ of TEL (Telio CAD, Ivoclar Vivadent). The ${\Delta}Es$ significantly decreased after prophylaxis polishing except GRA (Gradia Block, GC). There was no significant correlation between ${\Delta}Es$ and water sorption or solubility in water. Conclusions: The ${\Delta}Es$ of CAD/CAM blocks after immersion in coffee varied among products and were comparable to those of restorative composite resins. The discoloration of CAD/CAM composite resin blocks could be effectively removed with prophylaxis paste polishing, while that of some restorative composites could not be removed.

Chloride, which is one of the main deterioration factors in reinforced concrete structures, can degrade the performance of the structure due to chloride-induced corrosion of steel. Chloride content at steel depth or the rate of chloride penetration is necessary to determine deterioration of reinforced concrete or to calculate initiation time of steel corrosion caused by chloride attack. Chlorides in concrete are generally identified with typical two methods including chloride profiling using potentiometric titration method and discoloration method using AgNO₃ solution. The former is advantageous to estimate chloride penetration rate (diffusion coefficient in general) with measured chloride contents directly, but it is laborious. In the case of latter, while the result is obtained easily with the range of discoloration, the error may occur depending on workmanship when the depth of chloride ingress is measured. This study shows that chloride penetrated depth is evaluated with the results obtained from discoloration method through image analysis, thereby the error is minimized by workmanship. In addition, the effect of micro-crack in concrete is studied on chloride penetration. In conclusion, the depth of chloride penetration was quantified with image analysis and as it was confirmed that chlorides can rapidly penetrate through micro-cracks, caution is especially required for cracks in concrete structure.

Intrinsic discoloration of permanent anterior teeth is a continuing esthetic problem. Tetracycline ingested during amelogenesis has long been recognized as predisposing factor in intrinsic staining. Methods for restoring original tooth color have included (1) complete PFM crown coverage (2) porcelain laminate veneers (3) direct bonding of composite resin, and (4) bleaching. In the case of tetracycline-stained upper anterior teeth, We authors, obtained the satisfactory results by means of gingivectomy, preliminary bleaching and porcelain laminate veneer restoration.
