Kimchi was fermented in permeability-controlled polyethylene containers, in glazed onggi (Korean ethnic earthenware) or glass bottles at $5^{\circ}C$ for 8 weeks. During 4 weeks of storage, kimchi fermented in the permeability-controlled container showed a stable fermentation pattern, in terms of changes in pH and acidity, compared with kimchi fermented in the other containers. With respect to changes in bacterial counts, kimchi fermented in polyethylene containers showed vigorous multiplication of lactic acid bacteria, especially Lactobacillus sp., but slow growth of total aerobic bacteria. The springiness of kimchi fermented in the polyethylene containers was optimal (about 10% more than that of glass bottle-fermented kimchi), and the overall acceptability and hardness of container-fermented kimchi were excellent upon sensory evaluation. The DPPH radical-scavenging activity of kimchi fermented in polyethylene containers was also greater (91%) than that of kimchi fermented in glazed onggi (73%) or glass bottles (63%). The $O_2$ and $CO_2$ permeabilities of the polyethylene containers were higher (458 and $357\;mmol\;h^{-1}\;m^{-2}\;atm^{-1}$, respectively) than were those of the other containers; the permeability ratio was 0.8. Glass bottles showed no permeance. The results indicate that permeability-controlled polyethylene containers may be used for kimchi fermentation.

Polymer bags, metallic canisters, and glass bottles have been used as containers for analyzing the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in air. In this study, various sampling containers were compared to investigate the short-term stability of VOCs, that is, from the time they are sampled to the time they are analyzed. Polyvinyl fluoride (PVF), polypropylene (PP), polyester aluminum (PE-Al) bags, canisters, and glass bottles were used as sample containers. A 100 nmol/mol standard gas mixture of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, m-xylene, styrene, and o-xylene was used for the VOC comparison. Changes in the concentrations of samples stored for 10~20 day in each container were measured using a thermal desorption-gas chromatograph-flame ionization detector (TD-GC-FID). As a result, VOCs stored in a canister and two kinds of amber glass bottles have shown immaterial decreases in concentration in one week, and more than 80 % of the initial concentration was maintained for two weeks. In the case of polymer bags, the concentration of all VOCs, except benzene and toluene, were remarkably decreased below 70% of the initial concentration in one day. Particularly, ethylbenzene, xylene, and styrene have shown dramatic decreases in concentration below 30 % of the initial concentration in all polymer bags in one day.

Objectives This study was designed to examine antimicrobial effects of Fermented Coptidis rhizoma and Lonicerae Flos against pathogens. Methods Lactobacilli MRS broth was added to 200mL glass bottle containing 20% herb powder(w/v) followed by 30 minute sonication and then shaking at 70 rpm in $70^{\circ}C$ water bath for 3 hours in order to extract fermented herb. Fermented herb extract was autoclaved at $121^{\circ}$ for 15minutes. $2{\times}10^7$ CFU/mL subcultured bacteria was inoculated and cultured for 24 hours and centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 5 minutes. After transferring to 15 mL conical tube, the viable cells were counted. Results and Conclusion Fermented Coptidis rhizoma and Lonicerae Flos both showed antimicrobial effect on pathogens especially when Fermented Coptidis rhizoma was experimented against Staphylococcus aureus.

To analyse reception dishes of Choson Dynasty the author studied historic book-Youngjeob Dogam Bansunsek Euigwae (1609, 1626, 1634 year) in which the daily reception dishes for Chinese envoy in Choson Dynasty were described. The results obtained from this study were as follows. 1. The daily food items for reception of Chinese envoy were refined rice wine, rice, large fish, fish, Zogi, Driedjogi, mullet, pork, beef, chicken, egg, salt, soysauce, sweet soy sauce, refined soy sauce, sesame oil, vinegar, bean curd, stone leek, parsley, ginger and gaslic etc. 2. The daily tablewares used for reception of Chinese envoy were ricebowl (bari), small bowl of porcelain (boa), water bowl (daejeop), soup bowl (tang gi), plate (jeopsi), small dish (jong gi), small earthen ware jar (dong hae), jar (hang), pottery (ong gi), wine glass (jan), water cup, chopsticks, kettle, cauldron, bottle, table, knife, napkin, dish towel, brazier, washbowl and meter etc.

In this study, we developed transdermal direct drug delivery device using micro-needle painlessly. We has fabricated micro-needle that is 130 ${\mu}m$ thickness and 250 ${\mu}m$length with 10 ${\mu}m$ spiral groove for rolling down drug. Head part of micro-needle device is composed of 20ea micro-needles, an on-off valve and a protective cap. Glass bottle for containing drug is connected to head part of micro-needle device. We examined the puncture characteristic testing using porcine skin and drug delivery testing using porcine, rat skin with Indian Ink.

The effect of different containers on preservation of the fresh produces of banana, non-astringent persimmon, strawberry, cherry tomato and enoki mushroom was evaluated by storage test at controlled chilled temperature. Korean earthenware containers (onggi) glazed and/or unglazed were compared with plastic box and chinaware (or glass bottle). Glazed onggi was effective in preserving banana, persimmon and cherry tomato, while there was only marginal or little benefit with strawberry and enoki mushroom. The positive effect of glazed onggi on the freshness keeping for these ethylene-sensitive commodities is reasoned to come from adsorption of ethylene by the onggi, which needs to be tested by further study.

The objective of this research was to create a new probiotic candy with good flavor and healthy benefits by using the response surface method and a sequential quadratic programming technique. The endpoint was to increase the varieties of dairy products and enhance their market values. In this study, milk was mixed with yogurt cultures (Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophilus) and probiotics (L. paracasei, Bifidobacterium longum) and incubated at $37^{\circ}C$ for 20 h. The samples were blended with lyoprotectants (galactose, skim milk powder and sucrose), freeze dried and then mixed with sweeteners (lactose and xylitol) to improve the texture for forming tablets. The processing conditions were optimized in two steps: the first step constructed a surface model using response surface methodology; the second step optimized the model with a sequential quadratic programming procedure. Results indicated that skim milk inoculated with L. delbrueckii subsp. Bulgaricus, S. thermophilus, L. paracasei subsp. paracasei and B. longum and blended with 6.9% of galactose, 7.0% of sucrose and 8.0% of skim milk powder would produce a new probiotic candy with the highest viability of probiotics and good flavor. A relatively higher survival of probiotics can be achieved by placing the probiotic candy product in a glass bottle with deoxidant and desiccant at $4^{\circ}C$. These probiotic counts remained at 106-108 CFU/g after being stored for two months.

Put four different kinds of Jangdongsi, Pasi, Gamsi, and Taebongsi etc. into glass bottle(Fig. 1) of 1150ml and after modulated constitution of air girding this, by means of $CO_2$ the keep in cold storage on $0{\sim}5^{\circ}C$. The results are as follows : 1. $CO_2$ non-addition group was not changed it's own color to four months regardless of kind of persimmons 2. $CO_2$ added test group by double quantity of container was not more rapidly discoloration. 3. One - half quantity of test group added double, same, one-half and one of fifth quantity of container was the most effect, $CO_2$ as the same kind in S. T. P. 4. Taebongsi of test group of four different kinds added one-half quantity of $CO_2$ was maintained effectually possible it's natural color till seven months. 5. In taste, non-addition of $CO_2$ existed astringency taste but addition of $CO_2$ showed sweet taste like a Gamsi since two months of storage.

Inquiring activities on the acoustic phenomena have been carried out by using a sound card installed in a personal computer. A sound card is cheaper and more accessible to the students than the precision equipment such as a function generator or an oscilloscope. The students record the sounds from various acoustic phenomena to the sound card. Then they analyze the frequency spectrums of that sounds by using a program. Inquired phenomena include beat by two tuning forks, sound from Rijke tube, pouring sound, breaking of a wine glass and pop-up sound of a wine bottle. Through these activities students perform quantitative analysis of various phenomena due to superposition, resonance and standing wave.
