  • Anticarcinogenicity of 12 kinds of colored rice cultivars was investigated in vitro with Ilpumbyeo as a control. Pigment and hexane fractions were prepared from the rice brans through extraction with 80% ethanol containing 0.5% TFA or n-hexane to use subsequent evaluation of their anticarcinogenic effect by determining inhibitory activity against DNA strand scission and tumor promotion, as well as antimutagenic activity using SOS chromotest system. Antimutagenic activity of the pigment fractions was revealed to decrease in order of LK1B4-12-1-1 > Sanghaehanghyulla > HP833-1-3-1-1 > Chokoto14 > Jagwangdo > Jajin > Kilmheugmi > Tiwan-Tsi-C > Heugjinmi > Linsia-Shoea-Dau > Suweon425 > Suweon415. The activity of the hexane fractions decreased in order of LK1B4-12-1-1 > Sanghaehyanghyulla>Ilpunibyeo > HP833-1-3-1-1 > Chokoto14 > Jagwangdo > Jajin > Linsia-Shoea-Dau >Tiwan-Tsi-C > Heugjinmi > Suweon425, Kilimheugmi > Suweon415. Results showed that inhibitory activity against DNA strand scission in the pigment fractions decreased in order of HP833-1-3-1-1 > Tiwan-Tsi-C > Jajin > Chokoto14 > Suweon425 > Heugjinmi > LK1B4-12-1-1 > Suweon415 > Jagwangdo > Kilimheugmi > Linsia-Shoea-Dau > Sanghaehyanghyulla. On the other hand, the activity of the hexane fractions decreased in order of LK1B4-12-1-1 > Suweon 415 > Kilimheugmi > Chokoto14 > Heugjinmi > Jajin > Suweon425 > Tiwan-Tsi-C > Sanghaehyanghyulla a Linsia-Shoea-Dau > Jagwangdo > HP833-1-3-1-1 > Ilpumbyeo.

  • This study assumes a bidimensional model of acculturation theory in order to understand the acculturation patterns of Korean-Americans and their fashion and shopping behavior. Bidimensional models of acculturation suggest that acculturating individuals may possess the components of both the heritage culture and the new, host culture. A combination of email and paper and pencil surveys was conducted with a convenience sample of Korean-Americans who are living in Seattle and vicinity area (n=108). The questionnaire included questions related to the respondents' and their parents' demographic information, the respondents perceived relationship with their parents, self-reported ethnic identification, ethnicity-related behaviors/attitudes, clothing involvement, shopping motivations, and fashion reference groups. The results support the bidimensional models of acculturation process as opposed to the linear model. Three different groups among Korean-Americans based on their ethnic identification pattern were found: a group with dominant Korean identity(Segregation group), a group with dominant American identity(Assimilation group), and a group with dual identity(Integration group). According to the results of MANOVA and subsequent Duncan and Scheffe tests, the Integration group showed distinct characteristics from Segregation group or Assimilation group, in terms of their ethnicity-related behaviors/attitudes, clothing involvement, shopping motivations, and fashion reference group influence.

  • The method of intestinal Ca absorption in rats was studied by injecting the test solution of $^{45}Ca$ into ligated ileal loops (an in situ closed gut sement technique). The amount of Ca absorbed was measured in regard to the amount of soluble $^{40}Ca$ and $^{45}Ca$ which disappeared from the ligated ileal loops for 30min, and appeared portal blood for 15 min after the injection. The 15~20cm ligated segment of mid ileum and the test solution containing $0.2{\sim}0.5{\mu}Ci$ $5{\mu}g$ Ca/0.5ml, pH 7.0, $37^{\circ}C$ are appropriate for this in situ closed gut segment technique which turn out to be highly available for study of Ca absorption. The rats fed casein diet absorbed more Ca by 2~5 times than the rats fed egg albumin diet.

  • The purpose of this study was to explore the direction of application and quality management plan of science curriculum of elementary and middle school according to the 2009 revised curriculum. In order to do this, nationwide survey was administered. The subject was 126 elementary school teachers and 88 middle school science teachers. It was founded that teachers had negative opinion on the introduction of the grade cluster system. They considered that it was appropriate to link the contents of Science subject with Practical Arts(Technology Home Economics) subject by similar topic. Science classes were implemented without changing the number of class hours in most schools. They recognized the necessity of differentiated instruction in science classes, but they seldom applied the differentiated instruction. And they suggested that the teaching-learning materials, evaluation materials and contents be provided to apply the STEAM. This study designates the following strategic supports for the effective implementation of 2009 revised science curriculum; 1) the science teachers training program to provide useful information for understanding and teaching the 2009 revised science curriculum, 2) the teachers' community in the school, 3) the development and provision of the feasible STEAM plans.

  • The purpose of this study was to compare the anthropometry, nutrient intakes, dietary - related behaviors and health - related behaviors of male workers that were divided according to their alcohol consumption. The mean height, weight and BMI of all subjects were 172.0$\pm$5.8 cm, 67.8$\pm$9.3 kg and 22.9$\pm$2.6 kg/$m^2$, respectively. The WHR was higher in the heavy drinking group than in the other groups(p<0.01), while the other anthropometric indices were not significantly different among the three groups. The calorie intake was highest(p<0.001) in the heavy drinking group(3,270.4$\pm$686.5 kcal), followed by moderate(2,602.8$\pm$415.8 kcal) drinking group and light drinking group(2,341.5$\pm$449.4 kcal). As alcohol consumption increased, there was a decrease in the percent of energy derived from carbohydrates and lipids, while there was an increase in the percent of energy derived from proteins and alcohol(p<0.001). The heavy and moderate drinking groups had a highers intake of protein compared to the light drinking group, and the heavy drinking group had a higher intake of lipid compared to the light and moderate drinking groups(p<0.01). The intakes of vitamin $B_2$, niacin and phosphorus were lower in the moderate group than the other groups(p<0.01). The average MAR(Mean adequacy ratio) was 1.44$\pm$0.35 and the intake of all nutrients, except for folic acid, was much higher than the Korean RI(Recommended intake). The fruit intake frequency and sleeping hours were the lowest in the heavy drinking group(p<0.05) and the subjects preferred the following order of food products when they drink: meat(42.5%), fish & shellfish(30.0%), fruit & vegetable(22.5%) and others(5.0%) as a side dish. The average rates of smoking and exercise for all the subjects were 77.5% and 67.5%, respectively. The results of this study showed that heavy alcohol drinkers were more prone to abdominal obesity and related chronic degenerative diseases, indicating the need for extensive nutritional education for heavy alcohol drinkers.

  • High-protein rice flour (HPRF) was prepared by an enzymatic process using ${\alpha}-amylase$ and g1ucoamylase without cooking Process and the feasibility of HPRF as infants foods was tested. Rice flour slurry was treated with 0.25% ${\alpha}-amylase$ and 0.5% glucoamylase at $55^{\circ}C$ for 24hrs. After saccharification, the digested rice slurry was centrifuged and the precipitated paste, was then heat-dried to obtain HPRF. The protein content of the HPRF was 20.8%. On the other hand, the supernatant of glucose enriched solution was decolourized, deionized and then isomerised to furctose at $60^{\circ}C$ for 100min by using immobilized glucose isomerase column. The high-fructose solution (HFS) contained 56% glucose, 42% fructose and 2% oligosaccharide. The nutritional quality of the HPRF was compared with milk protein and soybean protein in weight gain, feed efficiency ratio (FER), protein efficiency ratio (PER) and liver weight. HPRF was almost the same in all items with milk and soybean protein, but significantly superior to rice flour group.

  • Jangkimchi is a kind of Kimchi which is made with soy-sauce instead of salt. Occasionally, when sugar is added to Jangkimchi for condiment, the kimchi juice becomes viscous. In this study. the nature of the viscous material and the condition for producing viscous property in Kimchi juice were investigated. HPLC analysis showed that the viscous material in Jangkimchi is polysaccharide composed of glucose. Sucrose was more effective in forming viscous juice than glucose and the viscosity increased with the addition of sucrose up to 10%. Soy-sauce also played a role in increasing the viscosity of Kimchi juice compared with salt. Aerobic fermentation condition was found to be another factor to make the juice viscous. The population of Leuconostoc mesenteroides, well-known producer of viscous dextran was not different in the Kimchi juice prepared with the addition of sucrose from that without sucrose, which implys that the Jangkimchi preparation methods such as addition of sucrose and soy-sauce would do some effects on the production of viscous material in Jangkimchi.

  • As a number of people using the internet for their shopping steadily rises, it is increasingly important for retailers to understand why consumers decide to buy products via online or offline. The main purpose of this study is to develop and test a model that enhance our understanding of how consumers respond future online and offline channels for their purchasing. Rather than merely adopting statistical models like most other studies in this field, the present study develops a model that combines double-cohort method with multinomial logit model. It is desirable if one can adopt an overall encompassing criterion in the study of consumer behaviors form diverse sales channels. This study uses the concept of cohort or aging to enable this comparison. It enables us to analyze how consumers respond to online and offline channels as people aged by measuring their shopping behavior for an online and offline retailers and their subsequent purchase intentions. Based on some empirical findings, this study concludes with policy implications and some necessary fields of future studies desirable.

  • Growth retardation and a variable degree of body disproportion are recognized features of malnutrition, and mild and moderate protein-calorie malnutrition(PCM). Among the various body measurements suggested to assess the prevalence of all grades of PCM as judged by growth retardation and by body disproportion, the 'mid-upper-arm circumference'-abbreviated to 'arm-circumference' has been suggested as a potential useful simple field index for the assessment of PCM showing that the measurement would give composite information simultaneously on three important effects on PCM-deficit in the muscle protein reservoirs, availability of calorie stores in the form of subcutaneous fat, and growth failure. And this is selected because of its easy accessibility, and less involvement with clinical edema. This study is conducted to make a comparison between the percentage of Korean weight for age standards and the percentage of mid-upper-arm circumference for age standards of 175 preschool children aged $3{\sim}72$ months who are selected among the low-income residents in Seoul. In this study, a comparison is made between the results obtained by expressing the observed weight of the child as a percentage of Korean standard, referred to as 'weight-for-age' and the observed arm-circumference expressed as a percentage of the age-specific arm standard of Jelliffe, referred to as 'arm-for-age'. All the measurements were taken following the techniques described by Jelliffe. The left mid upper arm was measured using a glass-fibre tape and the Fairbanks Morse beam balance was used for weighing. 80% level of weight for age Korean standard and 85% level of arm for are Jelliffe standard were used as an upper borderline limit for PCM. Comparing the 80% weight-for-age and the 85% arm-for-age standard as an upper limit for PCM, for children aged $3{\sim}72$ months, results in 84.6% agreement with the sensitivity of 86.4% and its specificity of 83.5%. If arm circumference alone had been measured and judgement made on this basis, then only 5.1% of the children would have been 'wrongly' classified. And there is a moderately close correlation between arm circumference and weight for age as the data in Table 4 shows. The problem therefore lies in the standard for arm circumference in normal children and in determining what is the lower limit of normal. Once this is clearly difined, one can rely more confidently on arm circumference measurements alone for the nutritional assessment of early childhood.

  • This study focuses on the 'invention technique and practical experience' unit to observe how the colleague mentoring class has its effect on self-efficacy. For this, we have selected experimental group and comparative group and proceeded the experiment. For five classroom hours of the 'technique of invention and practical experience' unit, each group was assigned different method to do the experiment. The experimental group was applied with the colleague mentoring method and the comparative group was applied with the self study method. To observe the differences of how it effects on one's self-efficacy, the questionnaire was distributed before and after class. Then, it was verified for the meaningful differences between the two groups. To summarize, the results are as follows. First, for self-efficacy experiment, the questionnaire before the experiment showed that there were no differences found between two groups. However, the questionnaire collected after the experiment showed great differences. The group with the colleague mentoring showed more meaningful differences at p<.05 significance level than comparative group. Furthermore, by observing the before and after questionnaire, it was found that both groups showed statistically meaningful differences at p<.05 significance level, but the experimental group showed greater self-efficacy improvements than comparative group. Second, when further examining the self-efficacy, the activity start expectation, activity continuation expectation, activity performance expectation, and experience recovery expectation showed the statistically meaningful differences at p<.05 significance level. According to the above results, it can be stated that the colleague mentoring class has more positive effects on the self-efficacy than self-study class. Summing up, the colleague mentoring class is more effective than self-study for fostering student's self-efficacy.
