Ten healthy wome 2-~25 years participated in a 5-week metabolic study to investigate the daily riboflavin requirement of Korean women. Three daily menu and meal patterns were used. Low riboflavin(LR) diet provided riboflavin at a level of 0.71mg / 1000Kcal based on food composition table. High riboflavin(HR) diet provided 1.14mg / 1000Kcal. The riboflavin status was assessed by erythrocyte glutathione reductase activity coefficient(EGRAC) and urinary exretion of riboflavin. Mean EGRAC of LR period and HR period were 1.17+0.08 and 1.01+0.03, repectively. There were discrepanices of riboflavin content of experimental diet between chemical analysis and calculation by Korean food composition table. Urinary riboflavin excretion of subjects was acceptable over the whole study period. It appeared that 0.71mg / 1000Kcal is requirement of riboflavin to maintain EGRAC withing normal range. Thus, it is suggested that current recommendation of 0.6mg / 1000Kcal of riboflavin intake may not be adequate as RDA level in Korea.

The relative Arrhenius parameters for t-butoxy radical decomposition (log $A_d$, $E_d$) and hydrogen abstraction of t-butoxy radical from hydrogen donor (log $A_d$, $E_d$) by competitive method were obtained as follows: for cyclohexane; log $A_a/A_d$ = -4.17 mole/l and $E_d-E_a$ = 9.01 kcal/mole, for isobutane; log $A_a/A_d$ = -5.70 mole/l and $E_e-E_a$= 11.0 kcal/mole. From the reported Arrhenius parameters for t-Butoxy radical decomposition reactions the parameters for t-Butoxy radical reactions with isobutane and cyclohexane are estimated to be log $A(l/mol{\cdot}sec)$ = 8.4, $E_a$ = 4.3 kcal/mol and $log A (l/mol{\cdot}sec)= 9.9,\;E_a$ = 6.3 kcal/mol, respectively.

The purpose of this study was to assess the physical activity level of Korean farmers to establish estimated energy requirements during the off-season. Subjects were 90 healthy males (n = 25) and females (n = 65). Body weight, height and body fat and muscles of subjects were measured. The prevalence of obesity among farmers was 56.7% according to the BMI. The farmers spent about 18 hours 7 minutes (75.5%) in sleeping and resting. The farmers spent about 19 hours 56 minutes (83.1%) out of 24 hours (one day) in "sedentary activities" and spent about 3 hours 56 minutes (16.4%) in "light activities". Physical activity level (PAL, activity coefficient) of female farmers was 1.42 which was not significantly higher than that (1.37) of male farmers. Estimated energy requirements (EER) for farmers who were different in age groups and gender were calculated. For example, the EERs for male and female farmers were 2190 kcal/day and 1712 kcal/day, respectively. The daily energy intakes of male and female farmers were 1803 kcal/day and 1610 kcal/day, respectively. The EER of male farmers was 2190 kcal/day which was significantly higher than that (1803 kcal/day) of the recommended daily energy intake of male farmers. The results of this study suggest that estimated EER of farmers should be modified according to seasonal workload and energy balance of farmers should be evaluated to prevent obesity.

현재 RPF 생산공정에서 생산된 RPF는 약 7,500~8,500kcal/kg 의 높은 열량을 지니고 있다. 이러한 특성으로 연소시 소각로 내부의 온도가 부분적으로 급격히 상승하여 적정온도조절이 어렵고, 로내 장치들의 내구성이 저하되는 등 문제가 발생하고 있다. 또한, RPF에 포함된 비교적 높은 농도의 염소 함량(0.8~1.8% wt)으로 인해 다량의 대기오염물질이 발생되는 단점이 나타나고 있다. 따라서, 이러한 문제점들을 개선하기 위해 RPF의 개질이 필요하며 본 연구에서는 슬러지와 RPF를 혼합하여 열량, 성형성, 염소함량등을 고려하여 최적의 혼합비율을 선정하였다. J하수처리장에서 발생하는 하수슬러지를 이용하여 5, 15, 25, 30, 35%를 RPF 성형공정에 혼합하여 실험하였다. 5% 혼합시 발열량은 약 6,300~6,800kcal/kg, 염소농도는 0.8~1.6%(wt), 15% 혼합시 발열량은 5,500~6,000kcal/kg, 염소농도는 0.7~1.4%(wt), 25% 혼합시 발열량은 5,200~5,900kcal/kg, 염소농도는 0.6~1.1%(wt), 30% 혼합시 발열량은 5,000~5,700kcal/kg, 염소농도는 0.6~1.0%(wt), 35% 혼합시 발열량은 4,800~5,200kcal/kg, 염소농도는 0.4~0.6%(wt)으로 나타났다. 각 혼합비율에서 관찰된 성형성은 5~25% 혼합까지는 성형된 RPF와 유사하게 일정한 크기 및 강도를 유지 할 수 있었으나, 25% 이상 혼합시 분말형태의 가루가 많이 발생되며 강도가 약해져 쉽게 부스러지는 문제점등이 나타났다. 연료의 개질 형태나 성형성등을 고려하였을 때 슬러지 혼합비율이 약 15~25% 정도가 최적 혼합비율인 것으로 나타났다.

This study is to determined the activation energy from TGA experimental data for the bituminous and anthracite coals of three kinds which are being used in the domestic coal-fired power plants. TGA experimental data indicate that the weight loss temperature of bituminous coal is 200$^{\circ}C$ higher than that of anthracite coal. Activation energy of bituminous coal is in the range of 14∼20 Kcal/mole compared with 37∼55 Kcal/mole of anthracite coal. A reduction of particle size of coals results in the decrease of activation energy and activation energy has a good correlation with the weight loss percent of coal in the TGA experiment. Addition of CaCO$_3$ on anthracite coal caused to decrease the activation energy of 1∼23 Kcal/mole while activation energy of bituminous coal do not change significantly.

PURPOSE: This study examined the effectiveness of an active lifestyle on the HRV and fitness of the older female adults. METHODS: Eighty female older adults (72.68±3.78 years) were sampled from a senior wellness institute. Accelerometers were distributed to each participant to have the device attached to them for one week, and the physical activity data (Energy expenditure in Kcal) of each participant were analyzed. Participants were divided into 3 groups (<1,000 Kcal vs 1,000 to 1,500 Kcal vs ≥1,500 Kcal) based on the amount of weekly physical activity. Before and after data analysis, the HRV was measured at resting state and the Senior Fitness Test was performed. RESULTS: One way ANOVA showed a significant difference in the HRV between the three groups. Group A (≥ 1,500 Kcal) was superior in HF and HF/HF + LF whereas Group C (<1,000 Kcal) showed high level of LF, LF/HF, and LF/HF+LF. The same statistics revealed significant differences in fitness. Most of the fitness variables were superior in Group A and B compared to Group C. Significant correlations were observed between physical activity and both HRV and in fitness. CONCLUSION: Theses results suggest that an active lifestyle may be an effective intervention for the prevention of both cardiometabolic disorder and improvement of the fitness level in older female adults.

Molecular orbital calculations at the ab initio, AM1, and PM3 levels have been carried out to investigate the lactam-lactim tautomerism of 1,2,4-triazolidine-3,5- dione(1) and 1,3,4-oxa(or thia)diazolidine-2,5-dione(2, 3). Most stable tautomer in 1 compound has been calculated to be a dilactam 1a and next one is lactam-lactim 1b. The relative energies between 1a and 1b are 4.1~12.6 kcal/mol depending on computational methods. The optimized 1a structure at ab initio level is in good agreement with X-ray structure. While the stabilities of 2 tautomers are in order of 2a>2b>2c, the stabilities of 3 tautomers are dependent on methods. According to 3-21G basis set, 3a tautomer is more stable by 4.9 kcal/mol over 3b tautomer. In contrast, the heat of formation of 3a at AM1 is higher by 2.71 kcal/mol than 3b.

Fragmente dsarcoplasmic reticulum of rabbit skeletal muscle was prepared and biochemical properties of its ATPase activity were studied. The ATPase of the fragments could be distinguished as $Mg^++ - ATPase and (Mg^++ - Ca^++)$-ATPase. The activity of $(Mg^++ - Ca^++)$-ATPase was predominant over that of $Mg^++$-ATPase in the temperature range of $0 \\sim 40^\\circ C$ and in the pH 6.4$\\sim$7.6. At higher temperatures the predominance of $(Mg^++ - Ca^++)$-ATpase was far greater. The apparent energies of activation were 14 kcal/mole for $Mg^++$-ATPase, 21kcal/mole for $(Mg^++ - Ca^++)$-ATPase, and 18kcal/mole for total ATPase. Changes in pH and Mg concentration did not alter the energies of activation of these ATPases. The Km values of these ATPases were found to be 0.36 mM for $Mg^++$-ATPase, 2.20 mM for $(Mg^++ - Ca^++)$-ATpase, and 0.86 mM for total ATPase.

Objective: The objectives were to investigate correlations between energy digestibility (digestible energy [DE]:gross energy [GE]) and various fiber types including crude fiber (CF), total dietary fiber (TDF), soluble dietary fiber (SDF), insoluble dietary fiber (IDF), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), and acid detergent fiber (ADF), and to develop prediction equations for estimating DE in feed ingredients and diets for growing pigs. Methods: A total of 289 data with DE values and chemical composition of feeds from 39 studies were used to develop prediction equations for DE. The equations were validated using values provided by the National Research Council. Results: The DE values in feed ingredients ranged from 2,011 to 4,590 kcal/kg dry matter (DM) and those in diets ranged from 2,801 to 4,203 kcal/kg DM. In feed ingredients, DE:GE was negatively correlated (p<0.001) with NDF (r = -0.84), IDF (r = -0.83), TDF (r = -0.82), ADF (r = -0.78), and CF (r = -0.72). A best-fitting model for DE (kcal/kg) in feed ingredients was: 1,356 + (0.704 × GE, kcal/kg) - (60.3 × ash, %) - (27.7 × NDF, %) with R² = 0.80 and p<0.001. In diets, DE:GE was negatively correlated (p<0.01) with NDF (r = -0.72), IDF (r = -0.61), TDF (r = -0.52), CF (r = -0.45), and ADF (r = -0.34). A best-fitting model for DE (kcal/kg) in diets was: 1,551 + (0.606 × GE, kcal/kg) - (22.1 × ash, %) - (25.6 × NDF, %) with R² = 0.62 and p<0.001. All variables are expressed as DM basis. The equation developed for DE in feed ingredients had greater accuracy than a published equation for DE. Conclusion: All fiber types are reasonably good independent variables for predicting DE of swine feeds. The best-fitting model for predicting DE of feeds employed neutral detergent fiber as an independent variable.
