Textures of claystones of the Cheonunsan Formation in the Hwasoon area have been studied using optical microscope and electron microprobe. Microscopic images were observed under the optical microscope using the transmitted polarizing light from thin sections and under the electron microprobe using the back-scattered electron beam from the polished sections. Identification of minerals were made using X-ray diffraction analysis and chemical analysis by electon microprobe. Textural analyses show that the original sedimentary claystones rich in aluminium were subjected to metamorphism by which they changed to the metamorphosed claystone consisting mainly of chloritoid, quartz, andalusite and illite. Later intensive hydrothermal kaolinization of this metamorhosed claystones resulted in the formation of high-aluminous claystones rich in kaolinite exhibiting various complicated replacement textures.

To standardize the recipes for healthy fast food market potentiality, a sensory acceptability analysis, instrumental texture analysis and nutritional evaluation were performed on Korean style mung bean pancake (MPC) and modified MPC containing squid meat and soybean. Optimal ingredient formulation was revealed to be 34% mung bean, 49% pork and 17% vegetables for traditional MPC, and 21% pork, 66% squid meat and 13% soybean for modified MPC, using response surface methodology. Flavor and hardness correlated highly with overall acceptability, rather than appearance and color of traditional MPC. Higher squid levels raised adhesiveness, springiness and resilience of modified MPC, but the higher soybean levels decreased these textural attributes. Protein, lipid and total calories of modified MPC were lower than those of traditional MPC. Degree of gelatinization of modified MPC was superior to traditional MPC.

Interrelationship between results of large deformation (texture profile analysis, TPA) test and small deformation (creep) test on ohmic heated surimi gel, water-bath heated surimi gel, and commercial fish gel products (kamabokos) was examined. Creep test revealed ohmic heated gels have higher elastic modulus and viscosity values than water-bath heated ones, with differences of elastic modulus and viscosity between ohmic and water-bath heated gels being 18 and 28.5%, respectively. These differences were reflected in the higher hardness, cohesiveness, and chewiness values of ohmic heated gels in TPA. In TPA test, the differences of hardness and chewiness between ohmic heated gel and water-bath heated gel were 29.3 and 38.7%, respectively. It was concluded that with proper experimental design, the small deformation creep test which gives molecular level deformation data can be related to the large deformation TPA test indicating the sensory textural properties.

To find the best way to distinguish sand dunes from urban building and rural patches, textural analysis has been performed in Kimnyeong sand dune, Jeju. An aerial photo was re-sampled into one-meter. Homomorphic filters were applied to the original sub-scene and then high-pass filtered one. The entropy filtered one proves to be the best extraction method after high pass filtered-homomorphic filters in urban areas. The spectral values of sand dune area were similar to open land in rural area. In contrast, the texture values of sand dune area are more homogeneous than those of open land in rural area.

For the past decade, the full-field digital mammography has been widely used for early diagnosis of breast cancer, and computer aided diagnosis has been developed to assist physicians as a second opinion. In this study, we try to predict the breast cancer using both mediolateral oblique(MLO) view and craniocaudal(CC) view together. A skilled radiologist selected 35 pairs of ROIs from both MLO view and CC view of digital mammogram. We extracted textural features using Spatial Grey Level Dependence matrix from each mammogram and evaluated the generalization performance of the classifier using Support Vector Machine. We compared the multi-view based classifier to single-view based classifier that is built from each mammogram view. The results represent that the multi-view based computer aided diagnosis in digital mammogram could improve the diagnostic performance and have good possibility for clinical use to assist physicians as a second opinion.

Meat emulsions containing 0, 15, 30 and 45% of soy protein isolate(SPI), Na-caseinate(Na-CN) and their mixtures were prepared in order to determine the effect of these non-meat proteins on the physical properties and their sensory quality in emulsion type sausage. It was found that SPI was better fat stabilizer and better binder than Na-CN. The mixtures of SPI and Na-CN didn't exert any significant effect on emulsion stability. From the texture profile analysis by using Instron two-cycle compression tests, decrease in the substitution levels and increase in the ratio of SPI/Na-CN resulted in a significant increase in the textural values of hardness, adhesiveness, gumminess, chewiness. The finished products showed that the substituted product for 15 % meat protein had higher textural values than the unsubstituted product. The sensory quality evaluated for the final products showed no significant difference between the SPI substituted product for 15 % meat protein and the unsubstituted product. However, all of the substituted products for 15 % meat protein and some of those for 30 % substitution with SPI and 67 % SPI received higher scores than average.

Fischer Tropsch reaction is one of the interesting topic for renewable and clean energy. Polymerization of carbon monoxide or carbon dioxide with hydrogen over metal supported catalyst can produce long chain hydrocarbons. Synthetic liquid hydrocarbons are promising alternative to fossil fuels. This research work has been focused on the synthesis of Fe based catalyst for Fischer Tropsch reaction. Mesoporous silica (MS) support prepared by a precipitation method using two different washing solution, distilled water (DW) and acid in ethanol solution (ET), and different calcination temperature. Then, Fe/MS was prepared by an incipient wetness impregnation method. All of samples were systematically characterized using various physical and chemical techniques. TEM and XRD analysis were used to ensure that the cubic Ia3d mesostructure is stable after calcination. FTIR spectra are useful to ascertain the existence of template in the support. TPR studies were also used to understand the nature of Fe species and their reducibility. The results reveal that washing the support with distilled water and calcination at $550^{\circ}C$ can efficiently remove the triblock copolymer templates. The existence of template in the support affects the textural properties of all catalyst investigated.

A survey aiming to find out the chemical and textural properties of commercial fermented soy bean curd called sufu was conducted. Sixteen brands of plain sufu produced in the Northern or the Southern part of China were collected and examined for their crude protein, crude fat, texture profiles, free amino acids, and free fatty acid contents. Twenty-one free amino acids were extracted and derivatized using a commercial kit followed by separation and analyzed by the gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Similarly, ten free fatty acids were extracted using alumina, eluted, separated and analyzed. The content ranges of crude fat and protein were 22~36% and 31~38%, respectively. In texture profile analysis, ranges of the texture parameters were 131~493 g (hardness), 0.4~0.5 (cohesiveness), -137 to -50 gs (adhesiveness), 0.6~1 (springiness), 47~220 g (gumminess) and 32~177 g (chewiness). Twenty-one different free amino acids, especially alanine, glycine, $\alpha$-aminobutyric acid, valine, leucine, allo-isoleucine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid and lysine in large amount, as well as ten fatty acids in total, notably linoleic acid (9-octadecanoic acid), oleic acid (9,12-octadecadienoic acid), linolenic acid (9,12,15-octadecadienoic acid), hexadecanoic acid and octadecanoic acid were found. This information provides important quality reference ranges for product developers and manufacturers to optimize and produce the plain sufu.

The objective of this study was to seek the best recipe for making Gamdanja. Gamdanja is a kind of rice cake made from persimmon extract and winy flour, with a little salt mixed into the waxy flour. The method involved boiling the persimmon extract and beating in the waxy rice powder until all the waxy flour had been added. The procedure was as follows: Gamdanja containing different ratios of ingredients, such as persimmon extract (23, 23.5 and 24 hrs) and waxy rice flour (160 and 180g). The most desirable recipe was determined after sensory examination and mechanical tests using texture, moisture content and colorimeter measurements. The results of the sensory evaluation showed that Gamdanja made using persimmon extracted for 23.5 hrs, with the additional of 160g of winy flour gave the higher scores for QDA profile, chewiness, delicacy and after swallowing preference than the other ratios. The results of the acceptance test also showed that the Gamdanja made using the persimmon extracted for 23.5 hrs with 160g of waxy rice flour was the best mix in every respect, such as for color and overall acceptability. In the textural analysis of Gamdanja, the hardness, adhesiveness, gumminess and chewiness were increased by the additiong of furtherway lour. The moisture content of Gamdnja with persimmon extracted for 23 hrs was higher an those extracted for 23.5 and 24 hrs. The L-, a- and values of Gamdanja were increased with decreasing waxy flour. The sensory and mechanical examinations showed the overall quality of Gamdanja had positive correlations with delicacy and color, but negative correlations with hardness, adhesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness. As a result of these tests, the most desirable recipe for the Gamdanja was persimmon extracted for 23.5 hrs with the additional of 160g of waxy rice flour, containing $1\%$ salt and a moisture content of $45.87\%$.

The objectives of this study were to investigate the quality of ginseng makgeolli during the fermentation and aging period, and to develop Jeungpyun manufactured by ginseng makgeolli. Four different amounts of ginseng powder (0, 2, 4 and 6 g) were added to the filtered mash which was fermented for 4 days at $24^{\circ}C$ and then aged for 6 days at $4^{\circ}C$ The quality of Jeungpyun batter containing 0, 2, 4 and 6% ginseng during fermentation, and the sensory, color and textural characteristics of ginseng Jeungpyun were analyzed. The pH of jeungpyun batter without ginseng was lower than the other batters. During 4 hours of fermentation of the batter at $30^{\circ}C$, the pH of the batter significantly decreased. The expansion volume of the batter without ginseng increased 4.11 times after 4 hours of fermentation, whereas batters with 2, 4, and 6% ginseng increased 1.70 times. The L value of Jeungpyun decreased by increasing the concentration of ginseng However the a and b values of Jeungpyun significantly increased with an increase in the concentration of ginseng. The results of the sensory evaluation showed that Jeungpyun with 2% ginseng had the highest flavor, taste and overall acceptability scores. In the textural analysis, the hardness of Jeungpyun increased by increasing the concentration of ginseng after 6 days of storage at $20^{\circ}C$. This study showed that Jeunpyun containing 2% ginseng was the optimum addition level.
