The purpose of this study was to isolate lactic acid bacteria, useful in the fermentation industry from Hahyangju Nuruk. Five strains were isolated, and identified as Lactobacillus based on growth inhibition by 10% (v/v) alcohol at pH 4.0. Isolated strains were identified to species, and named Lactobacillus plantarum L-3, L. sakei L-10, and L. curvatus strains L-8, L-11, and L-12. Morphological characteristics, physiological data, carbohydrate fermentation patterns, and 16S rRNA sequence data, were all used to characterize the bacterial isolates. L. plantarum L-3 showed the highest lactic acid productivity of all isolates, but grew only poony in the presence of 10% (v/v) alcohol at pH 4.0. The other strains exhibited lower lactic acid productivity than did L. plantarum L-3 and did not grow in the presence of 10% (v/v) alcohol at pH 4.0. The optimal temperature and pH for lactic acid production were $30^{\circ}C$ and pH 6.0 7.0, respectively. The lactic acid productivity of L. plantarum L-3, L. sakei L-10 and the three L. curvatus strains L-8, L-11, and L-12 were (% v/v of culture supematant) 1.55, 1.0, 1.06, 1.0, and 0.99, respectively, at $30^{\circ}C$ and pH 6.0. While L. plantarum L-3 suffered growth inhibition in the presence of 10% (v/v) alcohol, growth of the other strains was inhibited at 8% (v/v) alcohol.

Sik-hae is a traditional and well-liked salt-fermented seafood with a low salt concentration in Korea. However, it is challenging to find data on market degradation. This study was conducted to investigate sensual characteristics, such as taste, odor and color, of 10 types of commercial Sik-haes [flounder (5 type), Alaska pollock (2 type), black edged sculpin, anchovy, and sandfish] as basic data for developing new products. The salinities of the commercial Sik-haes were significantly difference in the range of 3.0-6.7%. The pH and total acidity of 10 types of commercial Sik-haes were 4.45-5.24 and 0.84-1.46 g/100 g, respectively. The amino acid nitrogen and free amino acid contents, and total taste value were 72.0-333.0 mg/100 g, 425.6-1,726.4 mg/100 g and 17.0-115.9, respectively. According to the taste value, the major taste-related amino acids were aspartic acid and glutamic acid. Volatile basic nitrogen content and Hunter redness value of commercial Sik-haes were 24.5-80.9 mg/100 g and 10.9-28.5, respectively. However, food-grade additives, such as citric acid and monosodium, are occasionally used in commercial Sik-haes to achieve a lower pH or enhance flavor and aroma.

The various culture conditions of Trichoderma viride(ATCC 3454) and Phanerochaete chrysosporium(ATCC 26921) with glucose-pepton medium, Mandels medium, YMG medium for wood degradable enzyme were examined. Mycellium of the two species grew profusely on glucose-pepton medium. Maximum fungal growth was observed about 10days. But CMCase, Fpase, laccase activity in the culture medium with glucose-pepton was not detected. When grown in fermenter culture using Mandels medium, Trichoderma viride produced CMCase and Fpase. Its CMCase activity was 0.15 lU/ml and Fpase activity was 0.3 IU/ml within about 4-6days. Phanerochaete chrysosporium grown in a YMG medium gave the best enzyme activity when they were grown under stationary culture with an atmosphere of 100% oxygen. Levels of laccase activity of 3.0 mull were achieved in stationary culture under 100% oxygen. The enzyme condensation by ultrafiltration method caused a 2-fold(cellulase) and 6-fold(laccase) as compared to control activity.

In this study, the carbonation characteristics of concrete according to the mixture of OLED waste glass were evaluated. Replacement capacities of OLED waste glass were 0%, 10%, 20%, and 30% of cement, and they were named OG 0, OG 10, OG 20, and OG 30. As a result of the compressive strength test, OG 0 without replacing OLED waste glass showed high intensity until the 14th. However, the higher the replacement rate of OLED waste glass, the higher the compressive strength of 28 days. In addition, the speed of carbonation was faster with the higher the replacement rate of OLED waste glass, and the accelerated carbonation experiment was about three times faster than the natural carbonation test. In conclusion, the carbonation characteristics of OLED concrete are expected to be positive in terms of atmospheric CO2 absorption.

A 4 week experiment was designed to study the effects of replacing corn with Chinese brown rice or adding different amylase in brown rice basal diet on growth performance and apparent fecal digestibilities of nutrients in growing pigs. One hundred and eight cross-bred pigs (Duroc${\times}$Landrace${\times}$Large White), weighing an average of $18.35{\pm}0.12kg$, were randomly assigned to 6 treatments with 6 replications per treatment. Diet in treatment 1 was corn-soybean meal basal diet, and in treatment 2, 3 and 4, corn was replaced by brown rice on rates of 33.3%, 66.7% and 100% respectively on the basis of treatment 1. And diets in treatment 5 and 6 were similar to treatment 4 except two kinds of amylases, glucoamylase and ${\alpha}$-amylase, were added respectively. The brown rice used in this experiment was husked from one kind of early, long grain, non-glutinous rice (ELGNR, indica rice) in southern China. The results indicated that there was a slight improvement in growth performance of pigs in brown rice treatments (p>0.05). The blood urea nitrogen value in treatment 2 was lower than that in treatment 1 (p<0.05). The differences of apparent fecal digestibilities of most nutrients were significant (p<0.05) except CP. Digestibilities of GE, OM and DM in treatment 4 were the best and digestibility of crude fat in treatment 5 appeared best (p<0.05). Contrast results between treatment 1 and treatment 2 to 4 indicated that the digestibility of GE, OM and DM increased significantly with the replacing rates of brown rice (p<0.05). Contrast results between treatment 4 and 5 indicated that adding glucoamylase in brown rice diet increased growth performance slightly (p>0.05) but not for digestibilities. This experiment shows a positive effect of brown rice on growth performance, especially on nutrient digestibility.

This study was conducted to determinean optimal soaking solution for inhibiting the texture softening of shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei pressured at high temperature (S-P/HT) in a retort, and also to optimize concentrations of 0.5% calcium chloride (CC) and 5.0% potato starch (PS) for preparation of a mixed solution (MS) and soaking time (ST) in the MS. On the basis of the results of expressible drip (4.6%), water holding capacity (95.1%), hardness (18.4 N/cm²) and sensory texture (7.2 score), the MS was found to be the optimal soaking solution for inhibition of texture softening under S-P/HT conditions, The concentrations of CC (X₁, %), PS (X₂, %), and ST (X₃, min) were selected as independent variables, and hardness (Y₁), springiness (Y₂) and sensory texture (Y₃) were selected as dependent variables. The optimal conditions of X₁, X₂, and X₃ were 0.51%, 6.34%, and 364 min, respectively. Under the optimal conditions, the experimental values of Y₁, Y₂ and Y₃ were 18.3±0.8 N/cm², 4.4±0.3 mm and 7.7±0.2, respectively, which did not diffr significantly from the predicted values (P>0.05). In conclusion, the optimized models of X₁, X₂, and X₃ for the preparation of S-P/HT using CC-PS were suitably fitted.
