This study was performed to investigated the contamination levels of harmful heavy metals were sampled from Aug. 1 to Aug. 31, 1997, at 9 areas in Cheonbuk area. The heavy metal contents were determinated by ICPS(Inductively Coupled Plasma Spectrometer) method. The levels of total lead, cadmium, aluminum, iron and copper were determined and the results were summarized as follows: The minimum and maximum values(ppm) of 9 areas of Carassius auratus were Pb: 2.03~6.19, Cd: 0.06~ 0.76, Al: 8.84~23.5, Zn: 10.68~48.71, Cu: 0.60~1.51ppm. Among the five heavy metals contents, the highest was zinc and the lowest was cadmium. The results showed that the contents of Pb, Cd, Al, Zn and Cu in Carassius auratus were lower than the FAO/WHO maximum allowance.

This paper presents the image feature extraction method and the image classification technique to select the harmful image flowed from the Internet by grade of image contents such as harmlessness, sex-appealing, harmfulness (nude), serious harmfulness (adult) by the characteristic of the image. In this paper, we suggest skin area detection technique to recognize whether an input image is harmful or not. We also propose the ROI detection algorithm that establishes region of interest to reduce some noise and extracts harmful degree effectively and defines the characteristics in the ROI area inside. And this paper suggests the multiple-SVM training method that creates the image classification model to select as 4 types of class defined above. This paper presents the multiple-SVM classification algorithm that categorizes harmful grade of input data with suggested classification model. We suggest the skin likelihood image made of the shape information of the skin area image and the color information of the skin ratio image specially. And we propose the image feature vector to use in the characteristic category at a course of traininB resizing the skin likelihood image. Finally, this paper presents the performance evaluation of experiment result, and proves the suitability of grading image using image feature classification algorithm.

However, the contents of harmful trace elements of Sodium Carbonate, Food Yellow No.5, Food Blue No.1, Food Red No.2 and Alkalies added in noodles are significantly higher than the other food additives. The obtained results are as follows ; 1) Sodium Carbonate contained Cadmium; 16.73 ug/g and Lead ; 61.55 ug/g. 2) Food Yellow No. 5 contained Cadmium: 1.67ug/g and Lead; 23.46 ug/g. 3) Food Blue No. 1 contained Cadmium; 1. 16 ug/g and Lead; 23.46 ug/g. 4) Food Red Ho. 1 contained Cadmium; 1.91 ug/g and Lead 23.08 ug./g. 5) Alkalies added in noodles contained Cadmium; 6. 11 ug/g and Lead; 53.85 ug/g.

ABSTRACT$.$Seven species of mushrooms (Sarcodon asparatus, Agaricus bisporus. Calocybe gambosa, Len tin us ,edodes.Ramariabotrytis.Pleurotus ostreatus and Tricholoma matsutake) produced in Korea were investigated on their mineral contents mainly by using Inductively coupled plasma-technique. The obtained results are summerized as follows: 1) Fe, N a and Zn are relativel highly contained in almost all mushrooms tested in this study. 2) Harmful elements such as Cd, Hg. Pb and As, were found only in trace amounts. 3) Sb, Se and Sn were not detected in all mushrooms.hrooms.

Korea Marine Environment Management Corporation (KOEM) has waste oil facilities in 13 ports to collect and treat waste oil, bilge, etc. from ships based upon the Marine Environment Management Act of Korea and MARPOL 73/78 convention. Those facilities were designed and have been operated simply to discharge water under the level 15 ppm of oil contents. However, bad smells occurred from rotten organic matters in waste water and direct discharge of harmful substances to receiving water caused civil appeals. Therefore, KOEM tried to develop new process for treatment of oily waste water from ships, which could mitigate harmful substances, save cost, calm down civil appeals and contribute to marine environment preservation. This process consists of 3 steps to remove oil contents via gravity variation at first, $O_3$ input to contact water and organism deposition by inputting condensate deposits. Then finally upper water will be discharged, and the deposited substances in the bottom will be compressed through spinning machine to transfer to the designated contractors for treatment of wastes. This is very effective and innovative in that it could reduce 3 or 4 steps compared with existing process and mitigate not only waste oil concentration but also hard resolving materials such as colloid, ABS, phosphorus, nitrogen and bad smells. This method is expected to minimize bad smells and harmful gases, to save more than 10% of maintenance cost, and to arrange the good base for garbage treatment business dealing with waste water and bad smell.

For evaluating the cigarette smoke quality of nonblended and commercial cigarettes, four modified smoke quality indexes were deduced from considering the reactivity of the thiol group in cystine (SH value) with the cigarette smoke constituents, and from the maximum limited contents of tar. nicotine, and carbon monoxide for the less harmful cigarettes. These results were discussed with respect to correlation coefficients between the indexes and tar/nicotine ratio which had been known reliable for smoke quality evaluation. Among the three indexes, the SH/[(N/O.6) +($\frac{C+T}{8}$)] index was found to be the most reliable and applicable.

This study was performed to survey and evaluate the contents of pH, total acidity, caffeine, harmful metals (Pb, Cd) and total polyphenol in coffee extraction. In total, coffee bean. Total fifty coffee samples were analysed. A 5 g portion of roasted ground coffee samples were extracted in coffee-maker with 100 mL of distilled water and the extraction were used in all experiments. The pH range was 4.72~5.25 (mean value = 4.99). According to increase of the roasting temperature, the pH were shown a tendency to increase. The contents of total acidity was 0.72~2.25% (mean value = 1.59%). According to increase of the roasting temperature, the contents of total acidity were shown a tendency to decrease. The contents of harmful metals (Pb, Cd) in coffee extractions were determined by ICP. The average contents of Pb and Cd were 0.0112 and 0.0011 mg/kg, respectively. The contents of caffeine in coffee extractions were determined by HPLC, the range of detection was 0.51~20.28 mg/mL (mean value = 12.29 mg/mL). According to increase of the roasting temperature, the contents of caffeine were shown a tendency to increase. The contents of total polyphenol in coffee extractions were determined by spectrophotometer, the range of detection was 18.88~43.90 mg/mL (mean value = 31.94 mg/mL). According to increase of the roasting temperature, the contents of total polypenol were shown a tendency to decrease.

We collected the samples of stream sediments from primary channels in order to establish natural background of major and minor elements for geologic units in the Gurye area. Stream sediments samples having no possibility of contamination effect and representing drainage basins composed of uniform geology, were collected from April to May in 1999, the chemical analysis of which was carried out. The tolerable level was used to investigate the enrichment degree of harmful elements. The contents of Ni and Cr exceeded the tolerance level in some sections. The tolerance level excess of those elements was regarded as the effect of the metamorphic rock which constituted the bed rock of the area. In order to identify the comprehensive enrichment pattern, the tolerable level was used in calculating the enrichment index. The enrichment index of harmful heavy metals showed that Granite gneiss area is 0.39, Porphyroblastic granite gneiss area 0.32, Biotite gneiss area 0.42, Migmatitic gneiss area 0.41, Tuff area 0.30, Andesite area 0.46, Conglomerate area 0.42, and Granite area 0.26. Those results showed that natural background of Gurye area had not been exposed to harmful heavy metal elements.
