In order to provide orange sac for off-season processing of sac-suspended orange juice, orange was treatee into intermediate production of orange sac and segment, stored at 2$0^{\circ}C$ during 3 months for assessment of sac-quality providing various processing conditions. Lowering the pH of syrup and sterilization temperature reduced the deterioration of sac quality in terms of intensity and destruction of sac. Sugar content of syrup had little relation with intensity of orange sac at pH 6.5, whereas in the range of pH 3.0~3.8, the increase of sugar content increased intensity of sac. The storage of segment form maintained better quality than that of sac form. The absorbance of syrup was linearly inverse to sac intensity. The deterioration of sac quality may be related to effulence of some materails in sac. Sac product sterilized at below $65^{\circ}C$ had possibility to be contaminated by microbes.

This study was carried out to develop new varieties which are dwarf and tolerant to winter cold in the Aurantioideae by intergeneric crossing. to do that, the reciprocal crosses of Hwanggeumyooza and trifoliate orange, yooza and trifoliate orange were done and in vitro immature ovule culture of their hybrid was carried out .The callus formation from immature ovule was good in order of Hwanggeumyooza, Hwanggeumyooza $\times$ tifoliate orange, yooza, and trifoliate orange and best at 1 to 3 mg/L NAA+0.5mg/L zeatin on MT medium. In vitro germination percentage of 20week old hybrid of Hwanggeumyooza $\times$ tifoliate orange and trifoliate orange $\times$ Hwanggeumyooza were 41.3% and 37.7, respectively. The phenotype of hybrid (95%) of Hwanggeumyooza $\times$ trifoliate orange and that (100%) of trifoliate orange $\times$ Hwanggeumyooza were similar to that of trifoliate orange. After Hwanggeumyooza was pollinated by pollens of trifoliate orange, the pollen tubes grew on stigma after 3h of pollination and entered into micropyle after about 24~28 h. One gamete in pollen was fused with polar nuclei after 2 days and other one fused with egg nucleus at 3days after pollination. The fruit set percentage by intergeneric crossing was 14.0% in Hwanggeumyooza $\times$ trtfoliate orange and 17.5% in trifoliate orange $\times$ Hwanggeumyooza. The fruit set percentages of Hwanggeumyooza. and trifoliate orange were 34.2% and 39.5% by artificial self-fertilization, 34.2% and 39.5% by artificial cross fertilization, 3.1% and 1.4% by parthenocarpy and 13.0% and 3.0% by natural fertilization, respectively. The somatic and gametic chromosome numbers of Hwanggeumyooza, yooza, and trifoliate orange were 2n=18 and n=9.

Objectives: Controversy regarding the relationship between exposure to Agent Orange and disease has progressed for more than four decades, both at home and abroad. Recently, the allegation by US veteran Steve House of the burial of Agent Orange at the US Army base Camp Carroll located in Waegwan-eup, Korea, has emerged. We reviewed published articles and reports related to Agent Orange. Methods: Articles and reports were collected online using the keywords 'agent orange' and 'health' and then reviewed. Results: A number of epidemiologic studies have reported disease outcomes due to exposure to Agent Orange, while others were unable to establish a link to the injuries of veterans of the Vietnam War. This can be explained by the fact that accurate exposure assessment should be carried out since exposure misclassification in epidemiologic studies can affect estimates of risk. In the case of the burial of Agent Orange at Camp Carroll, an exposure pathway could be through underground water supplies, which differs from the cases of Vietnam and Seveso in Italy. Conclusion: There still remains a dispute among academics regarding the relationship between exposure to Agent Orange and disease, although Agent Orange is a highly toxic chemical. This dispute indicates that accurate exposure pathway and exposure assessment is needed.

In this study, the experiments for surface enhancement of silver mirror substrates were done, where we checked the characteristics of silver surface made by Tollen's method. The surface enhancement of Methyl orange was analyzed by silver surfaces. We observed the Surface Enhanced Raman Spectra of Methyl orange. The assignments of the vibrational bands shown in SERS spectra are given based on both literature and the semi-empirical calculations at the PM3 methods. We deduced that the adsorption orientation of Methyl orange was little tilted parallel to the silver surfaces by using of the surface selection rules.

In order to provide orange sac for off-season processing of sac-suspended orange juice, orange was processed into intermediate form of orange sac or segment, stored at $20^{\circ}C$ and after 5 months of storage the intermediate product was finally processed into sac-suspended orange juice. Adaptability of various process and packaging was assessed. Pasteurized orange sac and segment could be relatively stable in view of microbiological spoilage during 5 months of storage. Between pasteurization methods of hot fill process and each of in-pouch or in-can process, there is no difference in quality of preliminary processed product during storage and final sac-suspended orange juice. In packaging method, metal can gave the best result and the next was 3 ply (PE/AL/PET) pouch and the last 2 ply (PE/PET) pouch. Storage in segment form was superior to sac storage. Sensory evaluation revealed better scores in final product processed from stored orange sac or segment than in control (initially processed sac-suspended orange juice) except 2 ply packaged sac.

The objectives of this study were to characterize the quality of soy kefir made with soymilk in combination with fructose (5%, 10%) and one of the extracts from orange (10%, 15%) and grape (5%, 10%) with differently adjusted amounts as defendant variables. The lactic acid bacteria, yeast and total microbial counts of soy kefir were respectively $1.3{\times}10^7$ CFU/ml, $1.6{\times}10^8$ CFU/ml, $1.5{\times}10^8$ CFU/ml, soy kefir was propered to drink. pH of soy kefir mixed by orange and grape extracts was decreased significantly according to add fructose 5%. Acidity became significantly high when orange and grape extracts were added, which means acidity showed similar tendency in the opposite direction. The saccharinity of soy kefir was not significantly in orange extract, but soy kefir added fructose 10% was high more than fructose 5% in grape extract. In sensory evaluation, soy kefirs added orange extract 15%, fructose 5% and grape extract 10%, fructose 5% were estimated highly on color, astrigent taste, sour taste, mouth feel and overall quality.

Several US veterans stationed in Korea have told the press that around 250 fifty-five gallon drums of herbicides, including Agent Orange, were buried at Camp Carroll in 1978. Joint Korean-US Agent Orange investigation and environmental and health studies were started in July 2011. Korean soldiers and military personnel who served in Vietnam during 1964-1973 or near the demilitarized zone in Korea during 1967-1970 were exposed to dioxincontaminated Agent Orange. The joint Korean-US Agent Orange investigation team found that herbicides, pesticides, solvents and other chemicals -not Agent Orange- were buried at Camp Carroll. However, there remains the possibility that Agent Orange was stored and buried at Camp Carroll or other military camps in Korea. Adverse health effects have not been clearly explained despite a number of health studies among veterans in Korea with potential Agent Orange exposure. Although the Korean government has been compensating veterans and military personnel with 18 presumptive-service-connected-diseases and their offspring with three diseases, there are many veterans, military personnel and civilians who require the government°Øs support. The environmental study on contaminated sites and health studies among veterans and civilians were initiated three or four decades after possible Agent Orange contamination and exposure. Several toxic chemicals, including dioxin-contaminated Agent Orange, could remain in the environment and could have hazardous effects on the health of exposed people for more than several decades. Further environmental investigations and health studies are needed to ensure public safety and health, and government support should be guaranteed for people potentially exposed to these toxic chemicals.

Highly quantum efficient and multi-color emissible polymer light emitting devices have been realized utilizing poly (1-dodecyloxy-4-methyl-1, 3-phenylene)(2, 5"-terthienylene)(hereafter, mPTTh polymer) as an emitting layer and tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (Alq3) as an electron transport layer. A single layer EL device of mPTTh polymer emits orange-colored light. EL efficiency increases as the thickness of Alq3 layer increases, but the emission color becomes visually broad when the Alq3 layer thickness is greater than 30nm since the relative peak intensity of green EL from Alq3 layer grows. EL color is changed from orange to greenish orange as the thickness of Alq3 layer grows. EL color is changed from orange to greenish orange as the thickness of Alq3 layer increases. EL efficiency of the double layer device was greatly enhanced by 3000 times compared with that of a single layer device. Alq3 layer in device acts as a hole blocking electron transporting layer and an emitting layer as a function of the thickness of Alq3 layer.ayer.

Most of orange peels are disposed from orange juice manufacturing process. Thus, our purpose is to utilize these orange peels as fermentation substrate. We have investigated culture conditions and factors influencing citric acid production by an isolated strain, Asp. niger. Citric acid production was much higher in semisolid culture than in submerged culture and the particle size of ground orange peels was favored at 20 mesh in semisolid culture. The optimal pH and temperature were 4.5-5.0 and 3$0^{\circ}C$ respectively and the temperature cycling at 35$^{\circ}C$ for 20 hrs durig exponential phase, 1$0^{\circ}C$ for 4 hrs and 3$0^{\circ}C$ during stationary phase showed higher citric acid production than did at fixed temperature, 3$0^{\circ}C$. The addition of NH$_4$NO$_3$0.2%, MgSO$_4$7$H_2O$ 0.1%, methanol 2.5%, ethanol 1.5%, to culture medium promoted citric acid production but the addition of trace metal ions as nutrients had not effect on the acid production in orange peel medium. Under the optimal culture conditions, maximum yield of citric acid was 80.4% in solid medium. Almost of all original components of citrus peel was consumed by Asp. niger during fermentation.
