Polymeric composites can be subjected to a wide variety of environmemtal conditions in practical use. One of most important conditions to be considered in the stuctural design using such materials is the miisture envirnment. Thus the moisture effect on interlaminar fracture toughness $G_IC$ and $G_IIC$ of CFRP(carbon fiber reinforced plastic) composed of carbon fibers and epoxy resin is studied in this paper. Specimens were first processed in 25, 50, $80^{\circ}C$ flesh water and $25^{\circ}C$ sea water for various periods of time. After that, the water absorption and fracture toughness tests were performed under laboratory atmosphere. As result, the specimen processed in $80^{\circ}C$ flesh water indicates the highest misture absorbing capability, the second in $50^{\circ}C$ flesh water, the third in $25^{\circ}C$ sea water, and the specimen in $25^{\circ}C$ flesh water does the lowest. The interlaminar fracture toughness $G_IC$ increases, approaches to the maximum, and decreases as the immersion time increases. In case of interlaminar $G_IIC$, the value of the specimen processed in $80^{\circ}C$ flesh water turns out to be higher than others. In addition, the scanning electron micrographs(SEM) of fracture surfaces were also examined in order to explain the mechanism of fracture.

Objectives : In Huangdineijing(黃帝內經), there are many uncertain terms to express body structures, for example, Yuk(肉, flesh). The purpose of this study is to define the meaning of Yuk(肉, flesh) and relevant terminologies. Methods : To define the meaning and origin of Yuk(肉) character and relevant terminologies, examples in Huangdineijing(黃帝內經), Seolmunhaeja(說文解字) and other important references are investigated. Results : Yuk(肉) character has etymologically meant meat, and afterwards it has got meaning of flesh. In the main two terms derived from Yuk, Giyuk(肌肉) means flesh, and Bunyuk(分肉) means muscles in anatomical knowledges. Also Yuk has been the most important etymological word that means body, among the five parts of body[五體], Geun(筋, tedndon and ligament), Maek(脈, blood vessel), Yuk(肉 flesh), Pi(皮, skin) and Gol(骨, bone) to contribute to making basic meanings of those characters. Conclusions : It is necessary to make clear the definitions of many Korean medical terminologies especially in anatomical knowledges to be helpful for systematic management of terminologies.

This paper is about to analyse Merleau-Ponty's notion of flesh on textual evidences through the structure of perception and to apply this result to his theory of the others. In the first place, we study what he thinks of philosophical investigation and thus of the essence of philosophy. With this process, we find out that perception is more important than reflection in philosophical investigation. Differently from the objective or objectivistic viewpoint, the truth of perception is revealed to go beyond distinction between consciousness and object. This truth refers to reversibility which Merleau-Ponty thinks to be the ultimate truth. The reversibility of perception leads to chiasms which reveal and unreveal the beings. In the final analysis, the flesh as reversibility is the Being in the beings. When it comes to the problem of other minds, we are confirmed through the movement of flesh that self-presence is the presence to the differentiated world, namely the others.

To improve the utility of apple, apple flesh (Malus domestica cv. Fuji), pomace and peels were dried and then extracted using solvents (water, 70% and 100% ethanol). The contents of polyphenols, flavonoids, ascorbic acid, ursolic acid and antioxidant activities were measured as extracted from the apple flesh, pomace and peel. The content of polyphenols was the highest in the apple peel when 100% ethanol was extracted. The content of flavonoids was about 3~8 times higher in apple peel than those of flesh and pomace, and 70% ethanol extract was the highest content. Ascorbic acid content was the highest in apple peel as well as flavonoid content. The content of ursolic acid in the apple flesh was not detected in water and ethanol extraction. In the case of apple pomace and peel, ursolic acid was not detected in water extract but it was detected when ethanol was extracted. The content of ursolic acid was highest in the apple peel. In the case of antioxidative activity, DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging ability showed the highest ability when apple peel was extracted with 70% ethanol.

To observe the functionality of Fuji apples, this study compared and analyzed the general and anti-oxidative components of apples based on production region. This study found that DPPH radical scavenging activities among parts of apple from the Chungju region were 82.84% in peels, 26.98% in peel-flesh, and 18.89% in apple flesh, and these values were lower than those from other regions (P<0.01). Antioxidative was 48.64% in the apple core, which was higher than those in peel-flesh and apple flesh. ABTS radical scavenging activity was highest (79.80%) in peels of apples from the Andong region, whereas values in peel-flesh and apple flesh were highest in apples from the Yesan region (P<0.01). For antioxidative activities in the apple core, apples from the Chungju region showed more than twice the value (52.34%) of other regions. Phenol contents in peels were significantly high [12.03 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/g] in apples from the Muju region, whereas phenol contents in peel-flesh were high (6.01 mg GAE/g) in those from the Andong region. Antioxidative activity in apple flesh was significantly high (5.57 mg GAE/g) in apples from the Yesan region. For antioxidative activities in the apple core, apples from Chungju region showed a relatively high value (6.53 mg GAE/g) (P<0.01), although values were low in apple peel, peel-flesh, and apple flesh. For the combined amount of flavonoids, values in apples from the Yesan region were high in apple peel, peel-flesh, and apple core [56.23 mg quercetin equivalent (QE)/g (P<0.01), 4.05 mg QE/g (P<0.05), and 4.00 mg QE/g (P<0.01), respectively], whereas flavonoid content in apples from the Andong region was high in apple flesh [4.35 mg QE/g (P<0.01)]. The results show that anti-oxidative activities were relatively higher in apple peel than flesh.

In order to determine chemical components of onion flesh and peel, general nutrients, vitamin C, and total flavonoids were measured. Onion peel showed less moisture (14.3%) and no vitamin C compared to onion flesh. Onion peel contained more amounts of total flavonoids compared to onion flesh. In addition, the inhibitory effects of solvent extracts from onion flesh and peel on $H_2O_$-induced oxidative stress and growth of cancer cell lines (AGS human gastric adenocarcinoma and HT-29 human colon cancer cells) were investigated. Acetone with methylene chloride (A+M) and methanol (MeOH) extracts from onion flesh and peel appeared to significantly reduce the levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) (p<0.05) and a greater antioxidant effect was observed in onion peel. Among fractions, 85% aq. methanol showed a higher protective activity against oxidative stress in both flesh and peel and there was no effect in the water and hexane fractions. The growth of cancer cells exposed to medium containing extracts and fractions from onion flesh and peel was inhibited dose-dependently. The growth of AGS was inhibited more in both flesh and peel compared to HT-29, and onion peel was more effective than onion flesh. Among fractions, 85% aq. methanol showed the greatest effect on growth inhibition in both flesh and peel. $IC_{50}$ values of 85% aq. methanol fraction from onion flesh and peel on AGS were 0.04 and 0.03 mg/ml, respectively, while those on HT-29 were 0.23 and 0.04 mg/ml. From our results, 85% aq. methanol fraction had an inhibitory effect against oxidative stress and growth of cancer cells, suggesting that it may contain biological active compounds.

The cell membrane properties in relation to flesh browning of Fuyu persimmon fruits during CA storage were studied. Compared to intact fruits, the flesh tissue of browned fruits showed higher rate of electrolyte leakage, indicating incresed membrane permeability. It could be assumed that the increased membrane permeability results in 1eakage of phenolic compounds from vacuole and their oxidation by contacting with PPO, inducing finally the development of flesh browning. In addition, lower content of fatty acids and higher saturation rate of them were found in browned fruits. In conculusion, it was suggested that the inhibited fatty acid metabolism and fatty acid saturation during CA storage cause membrane Permeability to increase.

In this study, we conducted an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) so as to compare antidiabetic activities of general potatoes, purple-flesh potatoes, and potato pigments in rats at various concentration levels. After allowing the rats to abstain from food for 12 hours, 10%/20% general potato, purple-flesh potato, and potato extract was orally administered to rats at 100 and 500 mg/kg concentrations. The blood glucose level was measured after an hour. Then, immediately, 1.5 g/kg of sucrose was administered through the abdominal cavity and the blood glucose measured after 30, 60, 120, and 180 minutes. 20% purple-flesh potato group and 10% general potato group, both 100 and 500 mg/kg, showed a significant concentration-dependent decrease in blood glucose levels after 30 minutes. The 100 mg/kg potato pigment group also showed a statistically significant decrease after 30 minutes. In conclusion, administration of 10% general potato, 20% purple-flesh potato, and potato pigment can reduce blood glucose level in an OGTT using rats.

Physiological characteristics of five new apple cultivars from the Korean apple breeding program were evaluated as a function of harvest time and storage after harvest. Internal ethylene concentration (IEC), flesh firmness, soluble solids concentration (SSC), and titratable acidity (TA) were measured in 'Summer Dream', 'Summer King', 'Green Ball', 'Picnic', and 'Hwangok' apples at harvest, during shelf life at $20^{\circ}C$, and one day after cold storage at $0.5^{\circ}C$ in air. IEC increased during shelf life in 'Summer Dream', 'Summer King', and 'Green Ball' but not in 'Picnic' or 'Hwangok', regardless of harvest time. Flesh firmness decreased towards harvest time and decreased gradually with time in cold storage only in the former three cultivars. In turn, IEC increased during cold storage in the first three cultivars but not for the last two cultivars, irrespective of harvest time. Changes in SSC and TA did not consistently relate to harvest time or storage period but TA tended to decrease as IEC increased. Furthermore, IEC was negatively correlated with flesh firmness except in the 'Green Ball' cultivar but the significance level was much greater in 'Summer Dream' and 'Summer King' (p < 0.0001) than in 'Picnic' (p < 0.01) or 'Hwangok' (p < 0.05) cultivars. Flesh firmness was positively correlated with TA in the first three cultivars but not in the last two cultivars. Overall, the results indicate that cultivars for which IEC increased after harvest had reduced flesh firmness and TA after storage.
