The rheological properties of exopolysaccharide(EPS-R) produced by marine bacteria Hahella chjuensis KCTC 2395 was investigated. EPS-R solution showed a characteristic non-Newtonian behavior fluid properties. In aqueose dispersions of EPS-R 1%, consistency index(K) and flow behavior index(n) were 1,410 cp and 0.73. EPS-R solution was pseudoplastic fluid by power-low model. Rheological propertie of EPS-R was found to be influenced by the concentration of salt, pH, temperature and ionic compounds.

Xanthomonas sp. EPS-1으로부터 생산된 다당류 EPS-1 용액의 농도가 0.04(g/dl)일 때, 비점도는 0.137, 환원 점도는 3.425, 상대점도는 1.137, 고유점도는 3.209임을 알 수 있었다. 겉보기 점도는 온도상슴에 따라 낮아졌으나 다시 온도를 증가하였을때는 서서히 증가하였다. 열처리 후에도 물성은 거의 변화지 않았으며, 응집성은 좋지 않았으나 locust bean gum과의 혼합효과는 우수하였다.

주로 탄화수소화합물로 구성된 EPS(Expended poly styrene)는 뛰어난 단열성능, 경제성, 건식공법의 시공편리성으로 단열재로 많이 사용되지만 화재에 취약한 단점이 있다. 최근 EPS패널의 다양한 난연화를 통해 난연EPS패널제품이 개발되고 있고 시장에서의 사용이 증가되고 있다. 그러나 가짜 난연EPS제품의 사용이 사회적 문제가 되고 있는 것도 현실이다. 본 연구에서는 난연EPS와 일반EPS가 성분이 다른점을 이용하여, 현장에서 시공되고 있는 시료의 진위여부 판단을 위해 X-선형광분석기(XRF)를 사용한 원소분석을 시도하였다. 분석결과 매우 간단한 방법으로 시료의 진위여부를 확인할 수 있었으며, 따라서 현장에서 사용될 수 있는 분석법으로 적용가능성에 대하여 고찰하였다.

The effects of packaging conditions on freshness extension of squash (Cucurbita moscata) were investigated during 7-day storage at 2$0^{\circ}C$. Weight loss of squash packed with corrugated paperboard box (control) was 5.5%, and those of LDPE (low density polyethylene, Ф0.02 mm), LDPE (Ф0.04mm) film and EPS (expanded polystyrene) box were 0.9%, 0.8%, and 1.1%, respectively. Firmness of EPS was 11% higher than that of control, chlorophill content of squash packed with EPS box was 18.9% higher, and total ascorbic acid content of squash packed with EPS box was 29.4% higher than that of control. Quality of packed squash was not different between EPS packages and LDPE packages. Decay of control was 1~2 pieces per box, but was not found in the LDPE, EPS box. Preferences in overall appearences of LDPE, EPS box was better than those of control.

Recycling of dredged soils as construction materials is experimently discussed in this paper. The strength of light-weighted soils(LWS) consisting of expanded polystyrene(EPS), dredged soils and cement is characterized by uniaxial and triaxial compression tests with varying initial water contents of dredged soils, the EPS volume and cement contents, and expanded ratio of EPS. Test results show that the strength of light-weighted soils increases with adding cement contents, whereas the strength increases with decreasing initial water contents of dredged soils and expanded ratio of EPS. It was, however, found that increasing the EPS volume makes a lower the strength of light-weighted soils.

Marine bacterial strains were isolated trom coastal regions of Goa and screened for the strains that produce the highest amount of mucous expolysaccharide (EPS). Our screening resulted in the identification of the strain Vibrio furnissii VB0S3 (hereafter called VB0S3), as it produced the highest EPS in batch cultures during the late logarithmic growth phase. The isolate was identified as VB0S3 based on morphological and biochemical properties. Growth and EPS production were studied in mineral salts medium supplemented with NaCl (1.5%) and glucose (0.2%). The exopolymer was recovered from the culture supernatant by using three volumes of cold ethanol precipitation and dialysis procedure. Chemical analyses of EPS revealed that it is primarily composed of neutral sugars, uronic acids, and proteins. Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy revealed the presence of carboxyl, hydroxyl, and amide groups, which correspond to a typical heteropolymeric polysaccharide, and the EPS also possessed good emulsification activity. The gas chromatographic analysis of an alditol-acetate derivatized sample of EPS revealed that it was mainly composed of galactose and glucose. Minor components found were mannose, rhamnose, fucose, ribose, arabinose, and xylose. EPS was readily isolated from culture supernatants, which suggests that the EPS was a slime-like exopolysaccharide. This is the first report of exopolysaccharide characterization that describes the isolation and characterization of an EPS expressed by Vibrio surnissii strain VB0S3. The results of the study contribute significantly and go a long way towards an understanding of the correlation between growth and EPS production, chemical composition, and industrial applications of the exopolysaccharide in environmental biotechnology and bioremediation.

EPS 포장상자가 도마토를 포장시 기존의 골판지 상자에 비해 어느정도 신선도 유지효과 기능이 있는지의 여부를 분석하고 일반적인 MA 포장재인 LDPE 포장과도 비교하고자 도마토를 포장하여 $25^{\circ}C$에 저장하면서 골판지상자와 0.02와 0.04mm 두께의 LDPE 필름, EPS 상자로 포장한 것들과 신선도 유지효과를 비교하였다. 저장 7일 후 중량감소는 대조구는 5.9%, EPS 상자는 1.1%의 중량감소가 나타났고, 비타민C도 EPS 포장구가 대조구 보다 20% 높게 유지되고 있었고 산도와 가용성 고형물함량도 EPS와 LDPE 포장구가 대조구보다는 변화가 적은 것으로 나타났으며, 대조구는 위조현상과 도마토의 표면 색상이 붉게 변하여 상품성이 떨어지는 것으로 나타났다. EPS 포장구는 LDPE 포장구와는 신선도가 비슷하게 유지되고 있었고 대조구인 골판지 상자보다는 품질이 잘 유지되고 있어 EPS 포장상자를 도마토 포장상자로 활용가능성이 확인되었다.

The aim of this study was to compare the fouling characteristics of Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) secreted by Chlorella vulgaris with the case of Bacterial-MBR (BMBR), Microalgal-MBR (MMBR) for advanced wastewater treatment using the Laboratory scale, in order to suggest a method to minimize fouling in MMBR by identifying the effects of amounts and compositions of EPS secreted by C. vulgaris and bacteria in the activated sludge on fouling. Contrary to expectations, fouling occurred relatively severely in the MMBR from the beginning of the operation than in the BMBR. Reasons for such a fouling pattern were considered to be the effect of C-EPS, which accumulates on the membrane surface of MMBR 30 times more than that on the membrane surface of activated sludge (BMBR). In this respect, according to the results of this experiment and a comparative review of several previous studies, it was confirmed that unlike activated sludge, in which the ratio of P-EPS was relatively higher than that of C-EPS, in case of C. vulgaris, the ratio of C-EPS to P-EPS was relatively higher than that in case of activated sludge. This was presumed to be the main cause of the significant fouling phenomenon in MMBR. However, an increase in TMP with increasing C-EPS concentration was not observed.

This paper validates new type electric power steering (EPS) system which is driven by a uni-direction rotational motor and two electromagnetic clutches. The assist motor of the new type EPS produces a torque for assisting the steering in only one direction and two electromagnetic clutches transmit the assist torque to the pinion gear in either left or right direction with respect to the steering rotation. In order to evaluate the static and dynamic characteristics of the new type EPS, the EPS has been modeled by using the well known customized software such as MSC.ADAMS and MSC.CarSim. The ADAMS software has been used to investigate the static characteristics of the proposed system. ADAMS, however, can not describe dynamics of a vehicle and perform the simulation under the various road conditions. Thus the dynamic characteristics of the vehicle including the EPS are analyzed very well by using the CarSim software. A sinusoidal steering input command is applied to the propose EPS system in order to evaluate the static characteristics, while the double lane changes are applied to the vehicle with the EPS in order to evaluate the dynamic performance. Through a series of simulations, we can conclude that the propose EPS shows the stable dynamic characteristics when the rotational direction is changed.
