Response surface methodology was used for monitoring extraction conditions, based on quality properties of old pumpkin extracts. Hunter's color L value of extracts was maximized at 101℃, 2.6 hr and decreased gradually after maximum point. The polynomial equation for Hunter's color L value showed 10% of significance level and 0.8799 of R². Hunter's color a value was minimized at 117℃, 3.9 hr and R² of polynomial equation was 0.9852 within 1% significance level. Hunter's color b value and ΔE value increased as the extracting temperature and time increased. Extraction yield of old pumpkin was maximized at 110℃, 4 hr and increased in proportional to the extracting temperature and time, but decreased after 113℃ and 2 hr. Viscosity of pumpkin extracts were maximized at 120℃, nearly 3 hr. R² of polynomial equations for yield, viscosity and sugar content were 0.9532, 0.9812 and 0.8869, respectively. Optimum ranges of extraction conditions for quality properties of old pumpkin were 102∼109℃, 2.5∼3.5 hr, respectively. Predicted values at the optimum extraction condition agreed with experimental values.

This study was conducted to investigate the quality change of beef muscle, which was thawed by different thawing rate in order to utilize it as fundamental data for establishing optimal and thawing condition. Chilled beef round which was purchased at a commercial market was used. The samples were frozen for 30min(time required to pas through the maximal ice forming zone, -1$^{\circ}C$∼-7$^{\circ}C$) and the thawing conditions were 3.9cm/hr, 0.21cm/hr, 0.13cm/hr. Thawing losses of rapidly thawed meat(3.9cm/hr) were significantly(p＜0.05) lower(6.10%), but cooking and total losses were the highest as 48.17% and 56.44%, respectively(p＜0.05). Characteristics such as color, flavor, texture and overall quality at different the thawing rates showed similar scores, but slightly increased after storage for 24hr. Juiciness of rapidly thawed meat was significantly(p＜0.05) higher than that compared to the other thawing rates.

This study was conducted to observe quality characteristics of whole soybean meju fermented with germinated soybean (Glycine max: Hwanggeumkong). The germination rate after 24 hr was $23.0{\pm}1.2%$, then increased rapidly to $90.2{\pm}1.3%$ at 36 hr of germination, and finally reached a level of $99.4{\pm}0.3%$ at 60 hr of germination. It was confirmed that the total isoflavone content immediately after soaking was 100.1 mg%, increasing during the beginning of the germination process; it continued to increase to 114.0 mg% by 24 hr of germination, but decreased thereafter. The isoflavone content at 60 hr of germination was 101.6 mg%. A total of 6 organic acids were detected, and total organic acid content ranged from 963.1-1,145.3 mg%. Differences based on the degree of germination in the raw material were insignificant. The free amino acid levels of the whole soybean meju made from non-germinated soybeans and from soybeans that had germinated 48 hr were 2,580.9 and 2,519.7 mg%, respectively. The content of glutamic acid was highest followed by aspartic acid, lysine, leucine, and proline.

Recently automatic equipment has been well popularized for the erythrocyte sedimentation rate, a widely used test, but no standard quality control has been established yet. Thus, we are going to report a case that established and applied a quality control method using the TEST 1 automatic analyzer. For internal quality control, we adopted the repeatability test through comparison with daily mean check, with a manual method using patients' specimens and with the results of a test on the previous day. In order to set the tolerance standard for each quality control method, we compared the results of 50 specimens that showed a wide range of ESR results and examined correlation and differences according to result. After setting the tolerance standard, we applied the standard at tertiary university hospitals for 120 days and investigated positive rates and re-examination rates. If the tolerance standard was exceeded, the cause was also identified. We selected a specimen of below 25 mm/hr (T1), one between 26-50 mm/hr (T2) and one of over 51 mm/hr (T3) at random. The correlation between the manual method and the automatic method was quite high (r=0.98), and it is found appropriate to set based on differences in result values below 25 mm/hr, the upper limit of the reference value, and based on differences in the percentage of result values above 25 mm/hr. Accordingly, we set the criteria for rejection above 10 mm/hr and above 20%. When the criteria were applied in the laboratory, 1.7% of specimens in the range of T1, 8.3% of those in the range of T2 and 7.5% of those in the range of T3 were rejected. Because all the rejected ones fell within the tolerance limit in re-examination calibration verification was not carried out. With the wide popularization of erythrocyte sedimentation rate analyzers that can carry out a lot of tests quickly using automatic methods, it is necessary to improve the reliability of test results by establishing internal quality control policies. We expect that an agreed standard quality control method may be established based on the method proposed in this study.

Background: The prognostic value of human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2/neu) for survival of patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) is still ambiguous. We therefore performed a meta-analysis to evaluate its prognostic significance. Materials and Methods: We searched the MEDLINE and EMBASE databases for published literature investigating associations between HER-2/neu status and overall survival of patients with CRC. A meta-analysis was performed using a DerSimonian-Laird model and publication bias was investigated by Begg's and Egger's tests. Subgroup analysis was also conducted according to the study design type, study quality score, cut-off value for HER-2/neu overexpression, publication region, patient number and publication year. Results: A total of 17 eligible studies involving 2,347 patients were identified for this meta-analysis. The combined hazard ratio (HR) was 1.31 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.96-1.79), suggesting that HER-2/neu overexpression was not significantly associated with overall survival of patients with CRC. However, subgroup analysis revealed that HER-2/neu overexpression had an unfavorable impact on survival when the analysis was restricted to subgroups of study quality score ${\leq}5 $(HR=1.56, 95%CI: 1.17-2.10), Asian patients (HR=1.74, 95%CI: 1.22-2.49), patient number ${\leq}106$ (HR=1.57, 95%CI: 1.01-2.44), publication year before 2003 (HR=1.59, 95%CI: 1.02-2.49), and prospectively designed study (HR=3.62, 95%CI: 1.42-9.24). The effect disappeared in subgroups of study quality scores > 5 (HR=0.69, 95%CI: 0.33-1.44), non Asian patients (HR=1.14, 95%CI: 0.77-1.70), patients' number > 106 (HR=1.07, 95%CI: 0.67-1.72), publication year after 2003 (HR=1.13, 95%CI: 0.76-1.69), and retrospectively designed study (HR=1.22, 95%CI: 0.89-1.67). Conclusions: Our meta-analysis suggests that HER-2/neu overexpression might not be a significantly prognostic indicator for patients with CRC. Further studies are required to confirm these results.

A total of 135 F2 finishing pigs (65 barrows and 69 gilts) from resource population (Large White${\times}$Meishan) were slaughtered at about 87.8 kg BW. Contents of inosine acid (IMP) and carnine (HR) in muscle were assayed by HLPC and genetic parameters for IMP content and HR content were estimated using full sibs model. There was significant sex effect on IMP content(p<0.05), $3.561{\pm}0.077mg/g$ for gilt and $3.287{\pm}0.085mg/g$ for barrow. Heritability estimates for IMP and HR content were 0.127 and 0.357, respectively. The phenotypic correlation between IMP content and HR was 0.335, pH (A) 0.024, water lose rate (WLR) -0.069, intramuscular fat (IMF) -0.214, average marbling score (MARB) -0.143, average backfat measurements (AVBF) -0.084 and average color value (CV) -0.156, respectively. The result indicated that inosine acid content in meat might be retained or slightly improved by reducing backfat depth in pig breeding.

This study seeks to determine the effect of the application of accounting information system (AIS), internal control system, and human resource (HR) competency on the quality of local government financial statements (FS). This study uses agency theory and compliance theory. Agency theory is used to explain that there is a link between the society as the principal and the government as the agent. Compliance theory is a theory, which states that every agency is obliged to comply with regulations because the law-drafting authority has the right to dictate behavior. The population in this study were employees of the financial division of local government organizations in one of the districts in Central Java, Indonesia. The total samples in this study was 106 respondents. The data used are primary data taken from distributing questionnaires to respondents. The method of analysis used to test the hypothesis was multiple linear regression analysis. The results of hypothesis testing indicate that HR competency has an effect on the quality of FS; however, the application of AIS and internal control system has no effect on the quality of FS. The implication of this research underlines the importance of HR competency to improve the quality of local government FS.

농업용수 수질기준을 초과하는 부영양화된 농업용저수지의 수질개선을 위해 갈대를 이용한 지하흐름 인공습지를 적용하였다. 처리수량이 많고 처리대상 농도가 비교적 낮은 저수지 오염특성상 인공습지의 운영은 수리학적 부하율이 높은 체류시간 6시간 ~ 72시간으로 운영하였다. 체류시간에 따른 수질 항목별 유출농도는 농업용수 수질기준보다 낮게 감소되었으며, 정화효율은 BOD와 COD, SS와 Chl-a는 체류시간 24시간 조건에서 높은 정화효율을 보여 주었으며, 그 이상의 체류시간 연장에서는 정화효율의 뚜렷한 증가를 보이지 않았다. 반면, 질소와 인은 체류시간이 증가할수록 정화효과가 현저히 증가하여 질소는 체류시간 72시간에서, 인은 48시간에서 최고의 정화효율을 나타내었으며, 질소의 정화효과가 특히 우수하게 나타났다. 따라서 저농도의 농업용수 수질개선을 위한 지하흐름습지는 질소 등 오염물질의 정화효과가 우수하고, 용지매수비용의 절감, 모기 등 병충해방지, 친수공간의 안전성 등 이점이 많으므로 넓은 면적의 인공습지 적용시 일부구간에 지하흐름습지의 적용을 검토해 볼 수 있다. 그러나 설치비용상승 및 유지관리 문제 등 여러 가지 측면의 고려가 필요할 것이다.
