The purpose of this study was to monitor the current nutrition labeling practice on the packaging of the processed foods providing consumers with reliable nutrition information, which has been considered as a useful aid for food selection and a potent educational tool for nutrition in a daily life. The 2,214 processed foods purchased at the a wholesale market in July, 2003, were divided by food categories issued from the 2003 food codes and assessed in the terms of the nutrition composition labeling and nutrition claims. Nutrition composition labeling was found on 533 out of the 2,214 processed foods items. The findings of this study were as follows : Milk and dairy products had 66.4% of nutrition composition labeling, which was the largest percentage among the food categories. Tables format (71.3%) is the most widely used type of nutrition labeling. The title of nutrition composition labeling used the most widely was nutrition composition (71.3%). Nutrition composition included many different ways of expression, such as a table of nutrition composition, and indication of nutrition composition, etc. The expression unit of the nutrition composition labeling was use per 100g or 100mL (40.5%). The processed foods with nutrition claims were 18.0% (399 items). Nutrition claims were divided into two categories: nutrient content claims and nutrient comparative claims. The most frequently used nutrient content claims were contained (43.9%) and more or plus in the nutrient comparative claims (16.0%).

The purpose of this study was to explore the consumers' purchasing pattern and dissatisfaction with the quality of the jean pants. A total of 695 men and women completed the questionnaire. The questionnaire for the survey measured consumer's jean pants purchasing pattern and dissatisfaction for quality. The results of this study showed that men bought higher priced jeans. Women in their twenties purchased and worn jeans frequently and men and women in age 20s mainly bought jeans at wholesale stores or department stores; but, majority of subjects in their thirties bought jeans at discount stores. Consumer's dissatisfaction with the quality of jean pants was significantly different among the groups by age, gender or their pursuing buying benefit. The men and women in age 30s were dissatisfied with harshness of the denim fabric. The subjects, who highly concerned on the aesthetic value, were dissatisfied with the inconsistence color of the jean pants after washing. Men and women who valued the functional performance of jean pants, were dissatisfied with low sweat absorbancy of jean pants material. The results of this study showed that the consumer's buying pattern for jean pants were differentiated by their age and gender. These results imply that jean pants manufacturers should develop jean pants to meet the needs of their target market. The jean pants, which were manufactured for discount stores, should be made of fabrics with good sweat absorbancy and soft hand. The fashion jean pants, which were targeted for women seeking aesthetic values, should be improved to maintain color consistency of the fabric.

Purpose The recent concern over environmental problems such as greenhouse gas emission and fine dust contributes increasing interest in renewable energies. However the intrinsic characteristics of renewable energies, intermittent and stochastic generation, might cause serious problems to the stability and controllability of power grid. Therefore countermeasures such as virtual power plant (VPP) must be prepared in advance of the spread of uncontrollable distributed renewable energy resources to be one of major energy sources. Design/methodology/approach This study deals with the design concept of the VPP platform. we proposed as a technology solution for achieving the stability of power grid by guaranteeing a single power profile combining multiple distributed power sources with ICT. The core characteristics of VPP should be able to participate in the grid operation by responding to operation instructions from the system operator, KPX, as well as the wholesale electricity market. Findings Therefore this study includes energy storage device(ESS) as a controllable component as well as renewable energy resources such as photovoltaic and wind power generation. Based on this configuration, we discussed core element technologies of VPP and protype design of VPP solution platform according to system requirements. In the proposed solution platform, UX design for the integrated control center and brokerage system were included as well as ancillary service function to respond to KPX's operation instruction with utilizing the capability of ESS. In addition, a simulator was suggested to verify the VPP operations.

Gamcheon Harbor was developed to cope with increased freight demand of Busan port and supplement function of the north port. Because container wharf is opened to 1997 as well as general wharf, present maximum 50,000DWT class containerships have been incoming and outgoing. However, In Gamcheon port, small size ships such as fishing boats, miscellaneous boats account for 50 percent of the traffic and a public marine products wholesale market that is building on the north wharf will open in 2008. Therefore, it needs to grasp future year traffic volume before establishing operation plan for port management. Also, analysis on crossing situation risk is required because the breakwater entrance in Gamcheon Harbor is narrow and the crossed passing of ship is ever-present at breakwater front. Thus the traffic volume in the future was presumed and quantitative analysis was achieved on crossing situation though simulations with the traffic volume.

This study was conducted to investigate the recognition, utilization, preference and application of kimchi, as well as to evaluate the recognition and requirement for commercial kimchi to university students. A questionnaire was answered by 180 (44.0%) male and 229 (56.0%) female university students in Daegu. The methods used to analyze the items were frequency analysis, Chi-squared tests and t-tests. Most of the respondents reported that they liked kimchi and had a preference for ripened kimchi In addition, most students were likely to cook kimchi by pan-broiling which indicates that the development of kimchi designed for pan-broiling may lead to an increase in the intake of kimchi. The recognition and utilization of commercial kimchi abutted through wholesale market very much, and were buying The marketing points that could most increase the sales of kimchi appeared to be 'hygiene' and 'standardization of taste and ageing' for male students 42 (23.7%) and 'hygiene' for female students 94 (41.4%) (p<0.01). All students responded that among marketing techniques for the sale of kimchi, diversification of taste, and increasing the recognition of kimchi were the most important parameters for aggressive globalization of the sale of kimchi. Therefore, the consumption of kimchi will increase in response to changes a dietary life style and activation is a plan getting done, and it is thought consumption of a kimchi to reflect these results well.

A soft rot of fruits caused by Rhizopus stolonifer occurred on cherry tomato in Jinju City Agricultural Products Wholesale Market, Korea. The disease infection usually started from wounding after cracking of fruits. At first, the lesions started with water soaked and were rapidly softened and diseased lesion gradually expanded. The mycelia grew vigorously on the surface of fruits and formed stolons. Colonies on potato dextrose agar at $25^{\circ}C$ were white cottony at first, becoming heavily speckled by the presence of sporangia and the browinish black, and spreading rapidly by means of stolons fired at various points to the substrate by rhizoids. Sporangia were $82.7{\times}196.7{\mu}m$ in size and globose or sub-globose with somewhat flattened base. The color of sporangia was white at first and then turned black with many spores, and never overhanging. Sporangiophores were $2.6{\sim}5.8{\times}12.3{\sim}24.2{\mu}m$ in width, smooth-walled, non-septate, tight brown, simple, long, arising in groups of $3{\sim}5$ from stolons opposite rhizoids. Sporangiospores were $8.2{\sim}18.8{\mu}m$ long, irregular, round, oval, elongate, angular, and browinish-black streaked. Columella was $64.1{\times}136.3{\mu}m$. brownish gray, and umberella-shaped when dehisced. The causal organism was identified to be R. stolonifer. This is the first report of Rhizopus soft rot on cherry tomato caused by R. stolonifer in Korea.

The distribution channel of meat by-products from the pig farm to the final consumer can include a meat processor, wholesale market, wholesaler, retailer, and butcher shop. Bacterial contamination at any of these steps remains to be a serious public health concern. The aim of this study was to evaluate the distribution channel and microbial characteristics of pig by-products in Korea. Upon evaluation of pig by-products in cold storage, we found that the small and large intestine were significantly (p<0.05) higher in pH value compared to the heart and liver. The total plate counts were not significantly different among offals until cold storage for 7 d. The coliform count after 1 d of cold storage was significantly (p<0.05) higher in small and large intestine than in the other organs. The coliform count of heart, liver, and stomach showed a higher coliform count than small and large intestine until 7 d of cold storage. As determined by 16S rRNA sequencing, contamination of major pig by-products with Escherichia coli, Shigella spp., and other bacterial species occurred. Therefore, our results suggest that a more careful washing process is needed to maintain quality and hygiene and to ensure the safety of pig by-products, especially for small and large intestine.
