Alcohol fermentations were carried out to confirm the capacity of ethanol production from glucose, starch and soluble starch(dextrin) by Schwanniomyces castellii NRRL Y-2477. Schw. castellii NRRL Y-2477 was able to produce the 63.9g/l ethanol using 94% subtrate from 150g/l-glucose medium. The direct alcohol fermentation of starch having the maximum solubility of 20g/1 at $30^{\circ}C$ yielded 9.1g/l ethanol upon complete depletion of starch, whereas 34.5g/1 ethanol was produced by utilizing 82% of 100g/1 soluble starch medium. The fermentation of 150g/1 soluble starch produced 52.1g/l ethanol using about 79% of substrate. Thus, it was found that the limiting step of direct alcohol fermentation of starch by Schwanniomyces castellii NRRL Y-2477 was a hydrolysis of starch.

Kimchi is well Down for its taste and health function. However, recently Kimchi consumption has been falling because of its salty taste, spice flavor and pungency. This study was aimed to prepare a less salty and more mildly flavored Kimchi with the addition of tomato which contains a red color similar to that of the hot pepper used in traditional kimchi preparation has functionality. The pH, total acidity, color, texture, microbes, sugar, salt, Na and K content of the tomato kimchi were measured. The total amount of phenolic compounds of the tomato kimchi was five times higher than that of traditional kimchi without tomato. A sensory evaluation of the tomato kimchi demonstrated its higher acceptability in overall color, fresh flavor and hot taste but no difference in acidity compared to the traditional kimchi.

This study was carried out to examine the quality characteristics of Doenjang manufactured with or without soaking Meju in brine according to salt concentrations (8 and 12%) during fermentation for 6 months. The moisture content and salinity of Doenjang fermented for 6 months were 54.9-60.3% and 7.8-12.5%, respectively. Doenjang using soaking Meju in brine had higher pH and lower titratable acidity than that using non-soaking Meju. The reducing sugar content in all samples was increased until 2 months and then decreased regardless of soaking Meju, especially that of non-soaking 8% Doenjang was the highest. The 8% low-salt Doenjang was shown the highest amino-type nitrogen content, especially the soaking Doenjang was higher than the non-soaking Doenjang. ${\alpha}$-amylase activity of all samples during fermentation were continuously decreased from 0.91-0.94 Unit/g to 0.01-0.06 Unit/g, especially the 8% soaking Doenjang was shown the highest activity after 2 months. Total bacterial count of the soaking Doenjang at the 6 months was in range of 7.8-8.0 log CFU/g and that of the non-soaking Doenjang was in range of 7.2-7.5 log CFU/g. By taste analysis, the 8% soaking Doenjang was shown the similar taste pattern with commercial Doenjang. In conclusion, the 8% low-salt Doenjang manufactured with soaking Meju in brine was a suitable concentration in order to reduce salt intake.

Doped ceria의 전기전도도는 도핑 원소의 종류와 양에 큰 의존성을 가지고 특정 조성에서 최대 전도도 값을 가지며 높은 dopant 농도에서는 전기전도도는 감소한다. 이런 현상은 dopant와 산소 빈자리 사이의 회합 형성과 관련이 있다고 알려져 있다. 그러나 Gd 이온이 도핑된 ceria의 경우 주된 회합종이 (2G $d_{Ce}$ $V_{o}$ )인지 (G $e_{Ce}$ $V_{o}$ ) 인지는 명확하게 알려져 있지 않다. 본 연구에서는 회합분포가 전기전도도에 미치는 영향을 연구하기 위해 결함의 회합종과 분포가 다른 3가지 경우에 대해서 시뮬레이션을 행하였다. 분자동력학법을 이용하여 다양한 온도와 다른 회합분포의 경우에 대해 산소 확산계수가 계산되어졌으며, 계산된 산소 확산계수는 실험적으로 결정된 bulk 전도도로부터 얻어진 산소 확산계수와 비교되어졌다. 그 결과 (2G $d_{Ce}$ $V_{o}$ )와 (G $e_{Ce}$ $V_{o}$ ) 회합이 공존하며 이들이 통계학적으로 이항 분포를 가지는 경우가 실험적으로 보고된 값과 가장 일치하는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

Effects of fungicides on the mycelial growth of Botrytis cinerea isolated from ginseng leaves were investigated by an agar dilution method. By using a agar dilution method, it was investigated the effect of fungicides, procymidone, carbendazim and the mixture with both of carbendazim and diethofencarb, on the mycelial growth of Botrytis cinerea isolates, which were isolated from infected leaves of ginseng in 2005 and 2006. With MIC (minimum inhibiton concentration) of procymidone against B. cinerea, pathogens were divided into two groups. While one showed the low MIC between 0.8 and $4.0{\mu}g/ml$, the other showed higher MIC above $20{\mu}g/ml$. In terms of the inhibition ratio of mycelial growth at the indicated concentration of procymidone, isolates of B. cinerea were divided into three groups; the sensitive, the intermediate resistant, and the resistant group. Each group was differentiated by $EC_{50}$; the sensitive group showed below $2.0{\mu}g/ml$, the intermediate resistant group between 2.0 to $5.0{\mu}g/ml$, and resistant group above $5.0{\mu}g/ml$. Compared with the ratio of resistant isolates of B. cinerea in 2005, the ratio in 2006 increased from 19.3% to 27.5%. Furthermore, the average $EC_{50}$ value of them increased from $10.0{\mu}g/ml$ in 2005 to $237.3{\mu}g/ml$ in 2006. The ratio of isolates showing the multiple resistance between procymidone and carbendazim was 40.2%, whereas the ratio was 4.0% showing the multiple resistance in the mixture.

Spectral gain variation characteristics of the silica-based erbium doped fiber amplifiers is investigated in the 1545-1557 nm wavelength region. For a given length of the erbium doped fiber, the gain($G_0$) with minimum spectral gain variation is uniquely determined. The spectral gain imbalance DG is nearly proportional to the difference between G0 and the operating gain(G) with the proportional constant of 0.1-0.2 dB/dB. For the gain flattened EDFA at the input power of -20 dBm/ch. and the gain of 21 dB, the output power and the optical signal to noise variations after 12 cascaded EDFAs were 5 dB and 3 dB, respectively.

The critical micelle concentration (CMC) and counter-ion binding constant (B) of the pure cationic surfactants (DTAB, TTAB, CTAB), nonionic surfactants (Tween-20, Tween-40, Tween-80), and their mixed surfactants (TTAB/Tween-20, TTAB/Tween-40, TTAB/Tween-80) in aqueous solutions of 4-chlorobenzoic acid were determined by using the UV/Vis absorbance method and the conductivity method from 284 K to 312 K. Thermodynamic parameters (${\Delta}G^o{_m}$, ${\Delta}H^o{_m}$, and ${\Delta}S^o{_m}$), associated with the micelle formation of those surfactant systems, have been estimated from the dependence of CMC and B values on the temperature and carbon length of surfactant molecules. The calculated values of ${\Delta}G^o{_m}$ are all negative within the measured range but the values of ${\Delta}H^o{_m}$ and ${\Delta}S^o{_m}$ are positive or negative, depending on the length of the carbon chain and surfactant.

Bias-dependent noise models of $0.2\mu\textrm{m}$ gate length P-HEMT's which are scalable with gate width are proposed. To predict S-parameters of the P-HEMT's the intrinsic parameters except for $\tau$ subtracted the offsets introduced in this paper are normalized to the gate width and then scaled. The small-signal model parameters are expressed as fitting functions of the drain current to $\textrm{I}_{dss}$ ratio and gate width. In addition, to estimate accurately noise parameters the noise temperature $\textrm{T}_{g}$ of the intrinsic resistance, the equivalent noise conductance $\textrm{G}_{ni}$ of the gate current noise source, and the equivalent noise conductance $\textrm{G}_{no}$ of the drain current noise source are adopted as the noise model parameters. The extracted values of $\textrm{T}_{g}$ are nearly independent of drain current and gate width and their average is around the ambient temperature. The extracted values of $\textrm{G}_{ni}$ are small enough to be neglected to the circuit characteristics. From the comparison of the noise model with only $\textrm{G}_{no}$ and that having $\textrm{T}_{g}$, $\textrm{G}_{ni}$ and $\textrm{G}_{no}$ to the measured data it is fund that even the former model is in good agreement with the measured noise parameters. Thus, from a practical point of view the noise model having only the drain current noise source is confirmed as a scalable bias-dependent model.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary supplementation of ${\beta}-1,3$ glucan on growth and immune responses in juvenile olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus fed the white fish meal based diets for 6 weeks. Five experimental diets supplemented with ${\beta}-1,3$ glucan at 0, 0.01, 0.025, 0.05, 0.1 % (Control, $G_{0.01},\;G_{0.025},\;G_{0.05}\;and\;G_{0.1}$, respectively) of diet on a dry-matter basis. Five experimental diets were formulated to be isonitrogenous and isocaloric to contain 50.0% crude protein and 16.7 kJ available energy $g^{-1}$. Fish averaging $3.2{\pm}0.1\;g\;(mean{\pm}SD)$ were randomly distributed in each aquarium as triplicate groups of 15 fish. Weight gain (WG, %), specific growth rate (SGR, %), and feed efficiency (FE, %) of fish fed $G_{0.1}$ diet were found significantly higher than those of fish fed Control, $G_{0.01},\;G_{0.025}\;and\;G_{0.05}$ diets (P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference among the fish fed control, $G_{0.01},\;G_{0.025}$. Chemiluminescent responses (CL) of fish fed $G_{0.1}$ diet were significantly higher than those of fish fed the other diets. Serum lysozyme activities of fish fed $G_{0.05}$ and $G_{0.1}$ diets were higher than those of fish fed control, $G_{0.025}$ and $G_{0.05}$ diets. Fish fed $G_{0.1}$ diet showed a significantly lower cumulative mortality than did fish fed control diet throughout the challenge test (P<0.05). These results suggested that based on growth rate, feed efficiency, non-specific immunity and protection against microbial infections the optimum dietary ${\beta}-1,3$ gulcan could be greater than 0.05% but less than 1.0% in juvenile olive flounder, Paralichthys oilvaceus.

In order to maximize the RNA accumulation and biomass production is Saccharomyces cerevisiae MTY62, a high-content RNA yeast strain, batch and fed-batch cultures were performed. Among the feeding modes of fed-batch cultures examined, the intermittent feeding mode R\`(IFB-lV), in which 50 ml of 40% molasses and 20% com steep liquor (CSL) solution was intermittently fed for 5 times, resulted in the cell concentration of 33.8 g- dry cell weight/1 and the RNA concentration of 5221 mg-/l, and RNA content of 153 mg-RNA/g-dry cell weight. The constant fed-batch with feeding mode III (CFB-III), in which the feeding rate of 40% molasses and 20% CSL solution was stepwisely decreased from 48 mph (9-13 h), to 24 mph (13-21 h), and to 18 ml/h (21∼ 48 h), gave the highest cell concentration of 42.7 g-dry ceil weigh71 and R7IA concentration of 5536 mg-RNA/1, which were about 2.4-fold and 1.9-fold increased levels, respectively, compared to the results of batch culture. However, the RNA con- tent of 130 mg-RNA/g-dry cell weight of the fed-batch was lower than that of the batch culture (171 mg-RNA/g-dry cell weight) and other fed-batch cultures. When the specific growth rates in the fed-batch cultures were increased, the RNA contents increased. This result indicates that the RNA content is adversely proportional to the cell concen- tration. However, at the same specific growth rate, the RNA content was maintained at higher level in the intermit- tent fed-batch than in the constant fed-batch culture.
