For the development of functional jang-products, kanjang was prepared using barley bran. Optical density of barley bran kanjang was significantly high at 15 days after fermentation, and the amount of extract was $2{\sim}3$ fold higher than that of soybean kanjang. Among the flavor components identified in barley bran kanjang, the content of 2-furancarboxaldehyde was the highest, followed by 4-vinyl-2-methoxy-phenol, benzene-acetaldehyde, palmitic acid, and methyl-9,12-octadecadienoate. In barley bran and soybean mixtare (1 : 1) kanjang, the content of 2-furancarboxaldehyde was the highest, followed by benzeneacetaldehyde, diethyl phtalate, palmitic acid, and 2-chloroethyl linoleate. Flavor components detected in both barley bran kanjang and barey bran and soybean mixture kanjang were 2-furancarboxaldehyde, benzaldehyde, benzeneacetaldthyde, 4-vinyl-2-mehtoxy-phenol, 1-furfuryl-2-formy pyrrole, dimethyl-1,2-benzenedicarboxylate, diethyl phtalate, palmiticacid, dibutyl-1,2-benzenedicarboxylate, and di-(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate.

The bond strength is one of the most important factor in establishing long-term success of esthetic restorative dentistry. So, various restorative materials have been introduced to improve the esthetic and physical properties. Ormocer (organically modified ceramic) was developed as a result of such efforts. This study was performed to compare the shear bond strength of ormocer based adhesive with that of existing dentin adhesive. In this study $Admira^{(R)}$ and $Admira^{(R)}$ bond of the ormocer system are grouped together for ADM, Single $Bond^{(R)}$ which is an one-bottle adhesive and Z-250TM which is hybrid composite resin of BIS-GMA system for SIN, and $Definite^{(R)}$ of ormocer and Etch & $Prime^{(R)}$ 3.0 which is a self etching priming/ bonding agent for ETC. The results of this study were as follows. : (1) In the comparison of shear bond strength according to different adhesive system, shear bond strength was increased in the order of ETC group, SIN group, ADM group. There was no significant difference between ADM group and SIN group. However, there was a significant level of difference between ADM and ETC groups as well as SIN and ETC groups( p<0.05). (2) Examination by a scanning electron microscope showed a well established hybrid layer and resin tag in both ADM group and SIN group, while ETC group showed a minimal formation of the hybrid layer when compared with ADM and SIN groups. From the above results, it may be reasonable to start the clinical application of ormocer system, and it is recommended that ormocer system should be used along with an ormocer based adhesive because ormocer system showed the lower shear bond strength when it used with other existing self etching priming/bonding agent. The self etching priming/bonding agent showed relatively low shear bond strength, and it is considered that the further study should be needed.

The main goal of this study was to analyze the effect of process additives, i.e. maleated polypropylene (MAPP), and nucleating agent on the viscoelastic properties of different types of extruded polypropylene-wood plastic composites manufactured from either PP homopolymer, high crystallinity PP or PP impact copolymer using dynamic mechanical thermal analysis. And also, the esterification reaction between wood flour and maleated polypropylene, and its role in determining the mechanical properties of wood flour-polypropylene composites was investigated. The wood plastic composites were manufactured using 60% pine wood flour and 40% polypropylene on a Davis-Standard $Woodtruder^{TM}$. Dynamic mechanical thermal properties, polymer damping peaks(than ${\delta}$), storage modulus (E') and loss modulus (E") were measured using a dynamic mechanical thermal analyzer. XPS (X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy), also known as ESCA (Electron Spectroscopy for Chemical Analysis) study of wood flour treated with MAPP was performed to obtain information on the chemical nature of wood fiber before and after treatment. To analyze the effect of frequency on the dynamic mechanical properties of the various composites, DMA tests were performed over a temperature range of -20 to $100^{\circ}C$, at four different frequencies (1, 5, 10 and 25 Hz), and at a heating rate of $5^{\circ}C/min$. From these results, the activation energy of the various composite was measured using an Arrhenius relationship to investigate the effect of maleated PP and nucleating agent on the measurement of the interphase between the wood and plastic of the extruded polypropylene wood plastic composites.

Effect of kochujang (Korean red pepper soybean paste) on the reduction of body weight and lipid levels of adipose tissues and serum were investigated in the rats fed a high-fat diet. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed for four weeks with diets containing either a normal diet (ND, based on the AIN-76TM diet), high fat diet (HFD, supplemented with 20% corn oil in ND), CK diet (10% commercial kochujang in HFD), TK I diet (10% 0 day (non-) fermented traditional kochujang in HFD), TKII diet (10% 6-month fermented traditional kochujang in HFD), or RPP diet (3% red pepper powder in HFD). CK, TK I and TKII in the diet significantly reduced the body weight gain compared to the control (HFD), whereas red pepper powder had no such effect. TKII supplementation in the high-fat diet reduced epididymal and perirenal fat pad weight significantly (p<0.05). Liver total lipid was lower in TKII diet group than other kochujang and RPP diet groups. TKII and CK decreased the content of triglyceride in epididymal and perirenal fat pad that increased by high-fat diet. The cholesterol content of the perirenal fat pad was the lowest in the TKII diet group. TKII was also effective in lowering serum cholesterol level. These results indicated that properly ripened (fermented for 6-month) traditional kochujang exhibited more suppressive effects on body fat gain and lipid levels of adipose tissue and serum than RPP, commercial kochujang and the kochujang without fermentation.

Porphyromonas endodontalis, an anaerobic Gram negative cocobacillus which was known to be associated with the infected root canals and periapical lesions, is very difficult to culture and to detect by the traditional method in that it requires much time to induce the specific black pigmentation, and it is very sensitive to oxygen and the antibiotics added in the culture medium. In this study, the nucleotide sequences of the 'probe h' (0.73kb), one of the specific DNA probes top. endodontalis (ATCC 35406) which had been developed by our department, was determined and then a pair of primers for PCR amplification was fabricated to identify P. endodontalis. The plasmids containing 'probe h' were purified by $Wizard^{TM}$ Midipreps DNA Purification System (Promega Corp.), and the nucleotide sequences of the 'probe h' were determined by the dideoxy chain termination method using TaqTrack Sequencing System (Promega Corp.) and detected by fluorescent labelling method. The sense/antisense PCR primers were designed with computer software (Lasergene, DNASTAR Ind. PCR was done with a programmable GeneAmp PCR System 2400 (Perkin Elmer-Cetus Co.). Each sample containing the whole genomic DNA of P. endodontalis and other black-pigmented Bacteroides was itailly denatured at $94^{\circ}C$ for 5 min and then subjected to 30 cycles, each of them consisting of 60s at $94^{\circ}C$, 60s at $60^{\circ}C$, and 90s. at $72^{\circ}C$. The amplified DNA was resolved electrophoretically in a 1.0 % agarose gel in 1X TAE buffer, stained with EtBr, and photographed on a UV transilluminator. The results were as follows : 1. The nucleotide sequences of 'probe h' (743 base pairs) were obtained by dideoxy chain termination method, and from that results the specific primers to P. endodontalis (ATCC 35406), 'Primer H1/ Primer H2', were designed. 2. It has been found that 'Primer H1/H2' could detect P. endodontalis (ATCC 35406) using PCR. 3. The PCR system with this primers may be a powerful technique to amplify the specific sequences of 'probe h' of P. endodontalis (ATCC 35406) that produce distinct identification of it from other black-pigmented Bacteroides, and this could help us to determine the nature of periapical disease.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of acid treatment of fluoride applied dentin surface with various concentrations of phosphoric acid for various periods of time on dentin bonding. Dentin specimens prepared from freshly extracted bovine mandibular anterior teeth were divided into fluoridated and nonfluoridated groups. Specimens of nonfluoridated group were pretreated with 10% phosphoric acid for 15 seconds. Those of fluoridated groups were treated with 2% sodium fluoride or 2% stannous fluoride solution for 5 minutes and stored in $37^{\circ}C$ distilled water for 3 days, followed by phosphoric acid treatment. The concentrations of phosphoric acid were 10%, 32% or 50% and the treatment periods of time were 15, 30 or 60 seconds. All the specimens were bonded with All Bond$^{(R)}$ 2 and Bisfil$^{TM}$ composite resin. After bonded specimens were stored in $37^{\circ}C$ distilled water for 24 hours, tensile bond strengths of each specimens were measured and the pretreated dentin and the fractured dentin surfaces were examined under the scanning electron microscope. The results were as follows : The tensile bond strengths from the fluoridated groups were significantly lower than those from the nonfluoridated group when the concentrations of phosphoric acid and the treatment periods of time were equal in all the groups (p<0.05). In general, the higher the concentration of phosphoric acid and the longer the treatment period of time for acid etching on the fluoride applied dentin surface, the higher were the bond strength values. Recovery of bond strength of the dentin bonding agent was better in the NaF applied group than in the $SnF_2$ applied one. SEM findings of NaF applied and $SnF_2$ applied dentin surfaces demonstrated reaction product-covered and partially or completely obstructed dentinal tubules. SEM findings of dentin surfaces fluoridated for 5 minutes followed by etching showed wider tubular openings and more clean dentin surfaces when dentin was etched with higher concentration of phosphoric acid for longer period of time. On the SEM observations of the fractured dentin-resin interface, the etched specimens of fluoridated group showed an adhesive failure mode when the concentration of phosphoric acid and the treatment period of time were same as in the nonfluoridated group. As the concentration of phosphoric acid and the treatment period of time increase during acid etching, the cohesive failure area increased. However, excessive acid etching caused adhesive failure.

일반적인 다목적댐은 홍수 발생 시 본댐으로 유입되는 부유쓰레기 및 잡목 등을 차단하기 위하여 댐 상류에 차단망을 설치하여 1차적으로 사전 방지하고, 홍수기 이후 선박으로 부유물을 수거하여 재활용, 소각 등으로 처리하는 시스템이다. 그러나 본 연구의 대상인 한탄강댐은 홍수조절용 댐으로서 수위 변화 폭이 매우 크고 정상 조건(비 홍수기)시는 대규모 홍수터가 드러나기 때문에 댐 유지관리 방법이 상이하며 한탄강 본류 구간은 하폭과 수심 등 하도의 불규칙성과 만곡부에서 유수의 흐름이 한쪽으로 쏠리는 편기 현상이 발생하는 등 복잡한 수리현상으로 인하여 부유쓰레기의 분포를 판단하기 어려운 지역이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 부유쓰레기의 유동을 모의하기 위하여 HEC-HMS 모형과 $Vflo^{TM}$ 모형을 활용하여 본류와 지류의 빈도별 홍수량 분석을 실시하고, EFDC 3차원 동수역학 모형을 적용하여 홍수조절용지 내 부유쓰레기의 유입 경로 및 정체 구역을 분석하여 효과적인 쓰레기 처리 방안을 제시하고자 하였다. 분석 결과, 소규모 빈도 홍수(2년, 5년)의 경우 중 상류 지류의 부유쓰레기는 거의 유동하지 못하고 하도의 만곡의 영향을 받아 부분적으로 높은 밀도로 고착될 것으로 모의되며, 특히 본류와의 합류점 부근에 도달한 부유쓰레기는 유로 폭이 급확대되어 유속이 거의 없는 사수역 구간으로 변함에 따라 본류 배수위 영향으로 불규칙하게 맴돌다가 고착되는 것으로 모의되었다. 중규모 홍수(25년, 50년)의 경우, 상류부의 부유쓰레기의 분포는 소규모 홍수 시와 유사한 패턴을 보였으나 중류부에서 홍수파가 본류 하도를 월류하여 홍수터로 넓게 범람하는 지역에서는 소규모 홍수 시 본류 하도 양안에 분포하던 부유쓰레기가 홍수터 쪽으로 밀려가서 고착되는 경향을 보였다. 대규모 홍수(100년, 200년)의 경우, 댐과 인접한 분석 구간 하류부는 댐 배수위의 영향을 가장 크게 받으며 수심이 깊어 흐름이 가장 정체되는 구간으로 본류와 지류 모두 다량의 부유쓰레기가 분포할 것으로 분석되었다. 분석 구간 중류부는 홍수 규모가 증가함에 따라 넓은 홍수터로 침수범위가 급격하게 증가하며 이에 따라 부유쓰레기가 분포할 수 있는 면적이 크게 증가할 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 분석 구간 상류부는 협곡을 이루고 있어 홍수규모가 증가하더라도 침수범위와 부유쓰레기의 분포면적에 큰 변화가 없을 것으로 분석되었다. 본 연구 결과를 바탕으로 댐의 치수 문제가 발생하지 않도록 효과적으로 수거 처리 할 수 있는 부유쓰레기 적치장 및 차단 시설의 적정 설치 위치를 파악하였다.

This study was conducted to evaluate the application effects of phospho-gypsum fertilizer (PGF) as reclamation material in the newly reclaimed paddy fields located in Goheung and Youngam, Jeonnam province in Korea. The PGF used in this experiment was produced by Namhae Chemical Co. as the name of Soil-Saver$^{TM}$. Prior to rice transplanting, the PGF was applied as soil amendment as the amount of $3,000kg\;ha^{-1}$. The PGF increases rice plant height and number of tiller at the heading stage by 119.9 cm and 9.1, respectively, in Youngam area. The harvest index of brown rice increased up to 5 and 13% more in the PGF applied paddy field from both sites than in the non-application of PGF at paddy field before rice transplanting, and the ripening ratio in increased in both sites to 81 and 90%. Protein content of brown rice was also greater than in the non-application of PGF at the both sites. For the effects of the reclamation by PGF in the paddy field soils, we found that PGF reduced exchangeable Na to 18 and 28% for both sites, respectively, and increased exchangeable Ca and $SO_4$. And we found relatively higher amounts of $K_2O$, CaO and MgO in the rice plants from both sites applied with PGF.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of a computer-aided detection (CAD) system used with automated breast ultrasonography (ABUS) for suspicious lesions detected on breast MRI, and CAD-false lesions. Materials and Methods: We included a total of 40 patients diagnosed with breast cancer who underwent ABUS (ACUSON S2000) to evaluate multiple suspicious lesions found on MRI. We used CAD ($QVCAD^{TM}$) in all the ABUS examinations. We evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of CAD and analyzed the characteristics of CAD-detected lesions and the factors underlying false-positive and false-negative cases. We also analyzed false-positive lesions with CAD on ABUS. Results: Of a total of 122 suspicious lesions detected on MRI in 40 patients, we excluded 51 daughter nodules near the main breast cancer within the same quadrant and included 71 lesions. We also analyzed 23 false-positive lesions using CAD with ABUS. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of CAD (for 94 lesions) with ABUS were 75.5%, 44.4%, 59.7%, and 62.5%, respectively. CAD facilitated the detection of 81.4% (35/43) of the invasive ductal cancer and 84.9% (28/33) of the invasive ductal cancer that showed a mass (excluding non-mass). CAD also revealed 90.3% (28/31) of the invasive ductal cancers measuring larger than 1 cm (excluding non-mass and those less than 1 cm). The mean sizes of the true-positive versus false-negative mass lesions were $2.08{\pm}0.85cm$ versus $1.6{\pm}1.28cm$ (P < 0.05). False-positive lesions included sclerosing adenosis and usual ductal hyperplasia. In a total of 23 false cases of CAD, the most common (18/23) cause was marginal or subareolar shadowing, followed by three simple cysts, a hematoma, and a skin wart. Conclusion: CAD with ABUS showed promising sensitivity for the detection of invasive ductal cancer showing masses larger than 1 cm on MRI.
