Objective: The aims of this study were to select one strain of Lactobacillus plantarum (L. plantarum) for a potential indigenous safe starter culture with low level antibiotic resistant and low biogenic amine production and evaluate its effect on biogenic amines reduction in Moo som. Methods: Three strains of indigenous L. plantarum starter culture (KL101, KL102, and KL103) were selected based on their safety including antibiotic resistance and decarboxylase activity, and fermentation property as compared with a commercial starter culture (L. plantarum TISIR543). Subsequently, the effect of the selected indigenous safe starter culture on biogenic amines formation during Moo som fermentation was studied. Results: KL102 and TISIR 543 were susceptible to penicillin G, tetracycline, chloramphenicol, erythromycin, gentamycin, streptomycin, vancomycin, ciprofloxacin and trimethoprim (MIC90 ranging from 0.25 to $4{\mu}g/mL$). All strains were negative amino acid-decarboxylase for lysis of biogenic amines in screening medium. For fermentation in Moo som broth, a relatively high maximum growth rate of KL102 and TISIR543 resulted in a generation time than in the other strains (p<0.05). These strain counts were constant during the end of fermentation. Similarly, KL102 or TISIR543 addition supported increases of lactic acid bacterial count and total acidity in Moo som fermentation. For biogenic amine reduction, tyramine, putrescine, histamine and spermine contents in Moo som decreased significantly by the addition KL102 during 1 d of fermentation (p<0.05). In final product, histamine, spermine and tryptamine contents in Moo som inoculated with KL102 were lower amount those with TISIR543 (p<0.05). Conclusion: KL102 was a suitable starter culture to reduce the biogenic amine formation in Moo som.

The present survey was conducted to provide basic information on Hanwoo calf management. Eight hundred and sixty-two Hanwoo breeding farms from all nine provinces were surveyed via personal interviews. The percentages of farms categorized by herd size were 30.5%, 32.8%, 26.0% and 10.7% for <50 heads, 51-100 heads, 101-200 heads, and >200 heads, respectively. More than 50% of farms offered calf starter at 6-10 days of age, showing that calf starter was offered relatively at an earlier age. Calf starter was replaced every three days by 30.1% of farms. The percentages of farms replacing starter weekly (19.2%) were even higher than those of replacing starter daily (18.8%), suggesting that the frequency of replacing starter needs to be increased to maintain starter freshness and to increase starter intake. About one-third of farms offered forage at 6-10 days of age and 21% of farms offered even at 1-5 days of age although it has been well known that forage does not contain either nutrient density or nutrient profile necessary to stimulate rumen papillae development, especially before weaning. Furthermore, about half of farms used rice straw with calf starter. Water was offered relatively at an earlier age (1-5 days of age) by 55% of farms. Deciding when to wean calves should be based on starter intake rather than age but less than 50% of farms decided weaning age by starter intake. In conclusions, to reduce weaning age of Hanwoo calves by rapid rumen papillae development it is necessary to provide fresh starter and water by increasing frequency of starter replacing and water trough cleaning and not to feed forage before weaning.

Five strains of psychrotrophic lactic acid bacteria which had been isolated from kimchi were inoculated as kimchi starters, and then their effects were investigated during fermentation at $8^{\circ}C$. The initial numbers of Gram negatives and coliforms in no-starter-inoculated kimchi were $4.0{\times}10^{6}CFU/ml\;and\;3.2{\times}10^4CFU/ml$ respectively, while these of lactic acid bacteria were only $1.6{\times}10^3CFU/ml$. Starter-inoculated kimchi showed sharp decreases in Gram negatives and coliforms from initial stage, but no-starter-inoculated kimchi showed slow increases in those bacteria in the early stage, and sharp decreases after 10 days. It took 10 days in no-starter-inoculated kimchi, $4{\sim}6$ days in Leuconostoc-inoculated kimchi and 2 days in Lactobacillus-inoculated kimchi for lactic acid bacteria to reach stationary phase of growth. No-starter-inoculated kimchi required 10 days to reach optimum ripened state, while all starter-inoculated kimchi samples required 4 days. The inoculations of all these starters did not cause over acidifications. Remarkable softening occurred in Leu. dextranicum-inoculated kimchi in 6 days, but did not in the rest. Except the Leu. paramesenteroides-inoculated kimchi, the qualities of Leuconostoc-inoculated kimchi were as good as those of no-starter-inoculated kimchi, but those of Lactobacillus-inoculated kimchi were not so good.

The pysicochemical and bacteriological properties of yogurts made by single or mixed cultures of L. bulgaricus FRI025 and S. thermophilus CHI were investigated. L. bulgaricus FRI025 which was isolated from raw milk was selected as starter culture among 22 strains of lactic culture by measuring viscosity, flavor, growth and acid production ability. The acid production and number of viable cell were increased by using L. bulgaricus FRI025 and S. thermophilus CHI together in ratio of apporximately 1:1. The pH, titratable acidity, viable cell number and viscosity of yogurt were 4.08, 1.14%, $2.5{\times}10^{10}/ml$ and 2100 cp after 9 hours incubation at $40^{\circ}C$, respectively. The pH and viable cell number were decreased on the other hand titratable acidity and viscosity were increased after 7 days of storage at $4^{\circ}C$. The changes of quality did not show significantly after storage. The selected starter was much higher than commercial yogurt starter in the acid production and growth of starter. The yogurt nanufactured with selected starter was better than with commercial yogurt in sensory evalution such as taste, texture, flavor and overall acceptability.

Gul jeotgals (GJs) were prepared using solar salt aged for 3 years. One sample was fermented using starters, such as Bacillus subtilis JS2 and Tetragenococcus halophilus BS2-36 (each $10^6CFU/g$), and another sample was fermented without starters for 49 days at $10^{\circ}C$. Initial counts of bacilli and lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in non-starter GJ were found to be $3.20{\times}10^2$ and $7.67{\times}10^1CFU/g$ on day 0, and increased to $1.37{\times}10^3$ and $1.64{\times}10^6CFU/g$ on day 49. Those of starter GJ were found to be $2.10{\times}10^5$ and $3.30{\times}10^7CFU/g$ on day 49, indicating the growth of starters. The pH values of GJ were $5.93{\pm}0.01$ (non-starter) and $5.92{\pm}0.01$ (starter) on day 0 and decreased to $5.78{\pm}0.01$ (non-starter) and $5.75{\pm}0.01$ (starter) on day 49. Amino-type nitrogen (ANN) production increased continuously during fermentation, and $407.19{\pm}15.85$ (non-starter) and $398.04{\pm}13.73$ (starter) mg% on day 49. Clone libraries of 16S rRNA genes were constructed from total DNA extracted from non-starter GJ on days 7, 21, and 42. Nucleotide sequences of Escherichia coli transformants harboring recombinant pGEM-T easy plasmid containing 16S rRNA gene inserts from different bacterial species were analyzed using BLAST. Uncultured bacterium was the most dominant group and Gram - bacteria such as Acidovorax sp., Afipia sp., and Variovorax sp. were the second dominant group. Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (day 7), Bacillus velezensis (day 21 and 42), and Bacillus subtilis (day 42) were observed, but no lactic acid bacteria were detected. Acidovorax and Variovorax species might play some role in GJ fermentation. Further studies on these bacteria are necessary.

An electronic starter using MOSFET is developed to take advantage of ideal preheating and starting features which can extend the lifetime of fluorescent lamps. The preheating curcuit of the developed electronic starter is consisted of three parts - a full wave rectifier curcuit, an FET switching curcuit, and a timer curcuit for the gate switching. The curcuit allows sufficient preheating current flow before the starting to protect lamp filaments, nevertheless it shortens the Preheating time and enables a single pulse ignition at the peak level of the line voltage. Experimental results show that fluorescent lamps of 20-40W range can be initiated within rather short time of $1{\sim}1.5sec$ with preheating current of 0.6A. The electronic starter withstands more than 70.000 cycles switchings without noticeable blackening due to anode spot. These features provide Proper evidences for the advantage of direct replacement with the new starter.

Antimutagenic activity of crushed kimchi fermented with starter under various conditions such as temperature(5-20$^{\circ}C$), salt concentration(2-10%), addition rate of starter (0-20%) was investigated. The kimchi was fermented with crushed Chinese cabbage without salting, red pepper powder, crushed garlic, crushed ginger, anchovy juice and starter. Well fermented kimchi juice(fermented at 10$^{\circ}C$ for 15 days) and sterilized radish juice was used as a source of lactic acid bacteria and starter medium, respectively. Antimutagenic activity showed the highest in the crushed kimchi fermented at 15$^{\circ}C$ for 15 days, 4% salt concentration, 5% starter added, respectively. The inhibition rate of mutagenic activity of the kimchi against S. typhimurium TA98 induced by NQO and S. typhimurium TA100 induced by MNNG was 56.41% and 60.11%, respectively. And the inhibition rate of the kimchi juice showed 56-60% per 100ul.

Due to the need for improved fuel consumption and the trend towards increasing the electrical content in automobiles, integrated starter generator (ISG) systems are being considered by the automotive industry. In this paper, in order to change the conventional generator of a vehicle, a belt driven integrated starter generator is considered. The overall ISG system, the design considerations for the claw pole type AC electric machine and a low voltage very high current power stage implementation are discussed. Test data on the low voltage claw pole type machine is presented, and a large current voltage source DC/AC inverter suitable for low voltage integrated starter generator operation is also presented. A metal based PCB (Printed Circuit Board) power unit to attach the 4-parallel MOS-FETs is used to achieve extremely high current capability. Furthermore, issues related to the torque assistance during vehicle acceleration and the generation/regeneration characteristics are discussed. A prototype with the capability of up to 1000 A and 27 V is designed and built to validate the kilo-amp inverter.
