Aspergillus niger No. PFST-38 was grown on complex media in 30L agitated fermentors at various aeration rates and stirrer speeds. We could correlate the mixing time as a function of the Reynolds number and the apparent viscosity, as follows. ${\theta}_M=2.95\;\NRe^{-0.52},\;{\theta}_M=1.88\;{\eta_a}^{0.57}$ Also, the effects of the apparent viscosity (${\theta}_a$), the impeller rotational speed (N), the air flow rate ($V_s$), and the mixing time (${\theta}_M$) on the oxygen transfer coefficient, $K_L a$ were determined experimentally, and equated as follows. $K_La=12.04N^{0.88}Vs^{0.71}{n_a}^{-0.83},\;K_La=30.2N^{0.88}Vs^{0.71}{\theta_M}^{-1.45}$ $K_La$ increased as the agitation speed and the air flow rate increased. The rate of $K_La$ increase was dependent more on the rotational speed of impeller than on the air flow rate. The glucoamylase production increased with the increase of the agitation speed upto at 500 rpm and increased with the increase of air flow rate upto at 1.0 vvm. The values calculated from the above equation confirmed that the experimental maximum production of glucoamylase was achieved when the $K_La$ and the apparent viscosity of the broth were $260\;hr^{-1}$ and 1800 cps, respectively.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of shrimp flour on quality characteristics of dumpling shell. Dumpling shell samples were prepared with wheat flour along with the addition of different amount of shrimp flour, followed by functional measurements and sensory evaluations. According to amylograph data, the composite shrimp flour/wheat flour samples had increased gelatinization temperature with increasing shrimp flour content, while initial viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$, viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$ after 15 minutes, and maximum viscosity were reduced. In terms of color values, L value decreased, but a and b values increased with increasing shrimp flour content. Furthermore, the addition of shrimp flour increased hardness and decreased chewiness in all samples. Overall, sensory evaluations proved that dumpling shell with 10% added shrimp flour was preferred over the other samples.

In general, simple fluid added mass method is used for the seismic and vibration analysis of the immersed structure to consider the fluid-structure interaction effect. Actually, the structural response of the immersed structure can be affected by both the fluid added mass and damping caused by the fluid viscosity. These variables appeared as a consistent matrix form with the coupling terms. In this paper, finite element formula for the inviscid fluid case and viscous fluid case are derived from the linearized Navier Stoke's equations. Using the finite element program developed in this paper, the analyses of fluid added mass and damping for the hexagon core structure of the liquid metal reactor are carried out to investigate the effect of fluid viscosity with variation of the fluid gap and Reynolds number. From the analysis results, it is verified that the viscosity significantly affects the fluid added mass and damping as the fluid gap size decrease. From the analysis results of eccentricity effect on the fluid added mass and damping of the concentric cylinders, the fluid added mass increase as the eccentricity increases, however the fluid damping increases only when the eccentricity is very severe.

The feed temperature has an effect on the performance during desalination of seawater by membrane separation. When the permeate flux intends to increase using the waste heat, it is necessary to analyze the effect of feed temperature precisely on the membrane performance. The experiments were carried out to investigate the performance of membranes by varying the seawater temperature from $10^{\circ}C$ to $60^{\circ}C$. The increase of permeate flux with increase of feed temperature was interpreted as the change of water viscosity and the membrane itself. While the increase of permeate flux could be predicted by the viscosity change in case of nanoflitration membrane, there exists 30% difference between the experiment data and the prediction by the viscosity change in case of reverse osmosis (RO) membrane, which seems to be due to 8% decrease of the pore size in 60caused by the contraction of membrane with the increase of temperature. Therefore, the desalination of seawater should be carried out within the range that the elevation of temperature does not cause the alteration of membrane itself even for the purpose of increasing the permeate flux.

As fermented milk has been regarded as health food, the consumption of fermented milk has been increasing significantly these days. But there is not sufficient information on the effect of fermented milk on oral health. We have investigated the effect of long-term intake of t\fermented milk on saliva in preschool children, Sixty-four healthy, unmedicated preschool children were included in this study and were divided into control, fermented milk, and milk groups. The experimental period was 210days. We investigated the number of slaivary S. mutans, lactobacilli, and Candida, salivary pH, viscosity, and the concentration of salivary IgA at the beginning of the experiment. We examined these parameters at 10, 60, 110, 160, and 210 days after. The obtained results were as follows : 1. There were increases in the numbers of slaivary S. mutans in all groups through the experimental period. But, there was no consistent and significant difference among groups. 2. There was no significant change in the number of salivary lactobacilli in the fermented milk group throughout the experimental period. 3. The numbers of salivary Candida in the fermented milk and milk groups showed less fluctuation than that of the control group through the experimental period. 4. There was no decrease of salivary pH in all groups through the experimental period. 5. There were increases in the values of salivary viscosity in all groups. But, there was no consistent and significant difference among groups. 6. There were no consistent and significant difference in the concentration of salivary IgA in all groups through the experimental period. 7. There were increases of dmfs rate in all groups. But, there were no significant difference within each groups.

A curd yogurt was prepared from milk added with skim milk powder of four kinds of cereal. The effect of cereals at 2%(w/v) level on acid production by lactic acid bacteria in milk was investigated. The effect of cereals on quality of curd yogurt (apparent viscosity, sensory property) was also examined. Addition of cereals markedly stimulated acid production by lactic acid bacteria. Among three organisms tested, L. acidophilus produced more acid than others. Apparent viscosity of curd yogurt added with corn was the highest while that with barley was the lowest. Curd yogurt fermented with L. acidophilus showed characteristics of thioxotropic flow. Apparent viscosity of curd yogurt added with cereal markedly increased between 6 and 24 hours of fermentation. Sensory property of curd yogurt added with wheat was judged as better than reference sample, but that with barley was lodged as the worst among all samples.

Busuge is conventional snack food in Korea which is made from steeped glutinous rice. The effect of the steeping time on total acidity, viscosity, canons, phosphorus and raising power of glutinous rice was investigated. Total acidity was increased from 0.3 to 1.02% by steeping for 20 days at $10^{\circ}C$. Viscosity was increased from 25.5 to 32.4 cP after 14 days steeping and thereafter decreased to 23.5 cP. K, Na, Ca, Mg and P were leached 68, 67, 85 and 16% on 20 days steeping, respectively. K, Na and P were leached in the initial period, and Ca, Mg in the middle period of steeping. Raising power was increased according to the acidity increase and leaching of Ca, Mg and inorganic phosphorus during steeping. However, influence of the former on raising power was greater than the after.

The aim of this study was to compare the effect of seawater to that of conventional salt (NaCl) on the technological properties of chicken emulsion sausages in a model system. Chicken sausages were prepared with seawater at three levels (10%, 15%, and 20%) in iced water (10%, 5%, and 0%, respectively) or with iced water (20%) and salt (1.2%). There was no difference in pH values and fat loss from emulsion stability between the two treatments. In general, with an increase in the amount of seawater, the water holding capacity (cooking yield and water loss), protein solubility (total and myofibrillar protein), and viscosity were increased. The addition of 20% seawater induced greater (p<0.05) water holding capacity, protein solubility, and viscosity compared to the control sample treated with salt, which was accompanied by an increase in the level of myosin heavy chain protein of samples with 10% and 20% seawater. Furthermore, addition of at least 15% seawater increased all of the main textural properties except for cohesiveness along with the moisture of sausage, whereas the fat and protein contents were decreased. Based on these results, the addition of ≥15% seawater to chicken breast sausage can induce equivalent or enhanced technological properties to those induced with salt, including water holding capacity, protein solubility, viscosity, and textural properties.

The effect of solid content on the physicochemical properties of rice porridge after reheating. The concentration of rice porridge was classified as solid content (12%, 10%, and 8%) by traditional Korean cooking methods. For reheating, packed rice porridge was boiled in water for 3 min and then cooled at room temperature ($25^{\circ}C$). The viscosity, soluble solid content and reducing sugar content of the rice porridge increased according to the solid content, while the blue value decreased. After reheating, the viscosities ($25^{\circ}C$) of all rice porridges decreased to 2.9-8.4%, compared to those of freshly made rice porridge, whereas the soluble solid content and reducing sugar content increased inversely according to the solid content of rice porridge. The SDI (starch digestion index) increased according to the solid content, whereas SDS (slowly digestible starch) the lowest in the solid content 12% porridge. Based on these results, it is favorable that the viscosity decrease after reheating was to be considered to ready-to eat rice porridges preparation.

The effect of aminosiloxane modifier on the chemorheological properties of ortho-cresol novolac epoxy/phenol novelac/triphnylphosphine resin system was investigated aat different isothermal curing temperatures. By adding the aminosiloxane to the resin system, not only conversion rate and conversion were increased but also glass transition temperature was promoted. Critical conversion and gelation time obtained at the crossover point between storage and loss moduli were reduced and thus the viscosity was increased by the aminosiloxane. $C_1$ and $C_2$ in the WLF equation calculated from the glass transition temperature as a function of conversion and measured viscosity were found to vary with the curing temperature. By applying the change of glass transition temperature with conversion, $C_1$ and $C_2$ to WLF equation, it was possible to predict accurately the viscosity change with isothermal curing reaction.
