The effect of organic acids on growth and heat resistance of Listeria monocytogenes Scott A were investigated. The growth of L. monocytogenes was inhibited in Tryptic Soy Broth(TSB) with 0.1 or 0.2% of acetic , tartic , propionic , citric and lactic acid at 35$^{\circ}C$, respectively. The growth of l. Monocytogenes did not occur in TSB with 0.2% of acetic acid or propionic acid during 48h of incubation. The heat resistance of L.monocytogenes was affected by kind of organic acid, ph and heating substrate. L.monocytogenes showed more heat resistant in TSB with various organic acids than in 0.1M sodium phosphate with the same organic acids. Heat resistance decreased as pH of heating substrate decreased . Surface-adherent microcolony was more heat resistant than planktonic cell of L. monocytogenes. Propionic and lactic acids more affected on heat resistance of L.monocytogenes than acetic , tartaric and citric acids.

This study aimed to investigate the effect of amino acid additives to weaned piglet diets on the pH and volatile fatty acids of pig slurries. A total of 135 weaned 22 -day-old piglets (Yorkshire x Landrace x Duroc) were used in this 56-d study. The three dietary treatments were as follows: (1) Control as a basal diet, (2) 1% amino acid additive and (3) 2% amino acid additive. Both pH and acetic acid values at 71 and 78 days were significantly different in all treatment groups (p<0.05). In addition, significant differences in propionic acid values were observed among treatment groups at 64 and 78 days (p<0.05). However, pH, acetic acid, and propionic acid values did not differ between 1% and 2% amino acid treatment groups. In conclusion, adding 1% and 2% amino acid to weaned piglet diets reduced the pH, acetic acid and propionic acid contents of pig slurries by acting as a probiotic. This may help formulate increase management strategies for improving the pig housing environment.

The main objective of this study is the improvement of the interfacial adhesion of RHF-polypropylene (PP) bio-composites through NaOH and acetic acid treated RHF. After manufacturing of untreated and NaOH and acetic acid treated RHF filled PP bio-composites, the effect on interfacial adhesion of bio-composites was investigated. Tensile strength of the bio-composites made from treated RHF with NaOH and acetic acid was higher than that of the untreated bio-composites. The RHF surface before and after NaOH and acetic acid treatment was clearly confirmed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) micrograph. It was found that both treatments result in a removal of impurity materials of RHF surface by SEM micrographs. The chemical structures of untreated and NaOH and acetic acid treated RHF were confirmed by fourier transform infrared (FTIR). The crystallization structure and crystallinity of non-treated, NaOH and acetic acid treated RHF were investigated by wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS).

Effect on iron dissolution from iron sauce pans treated with the acetic, malic, citric acid and concentration(0. 0.02. 0.04. 0.1, 0.2, 0.4. 1.0, 2.0, 4.0%) of acidity, boiling times(0, 10. 20, 30, 40, 50, 60mins.) and temperature(5, 20, 40. 60, 80, 10$0^{\circ}C$) of acidity solution and in new and used sauce pans was investigated. As acetic acid concentration increases, iron content has increased. Iron dissolution concentration from iron sauce pan for boiling in malic acid increased more than that of acetic acid and citric acid. At above 6$0^{\circ}C$, as temperature increases, concentration of iron dissolved from iron sauce pan has increased. As boiling time increases, concentration of iron dissolved from iron sauce pan has also increased. Concentration of iron by repeated use has increased. And iron concentration has dissolved in large amount from new pan rather than used pan. Concentration of iron with distilled water by repeated use has increased only slightly. But 1% acetic acid has dissolved in large quantities.

Liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) can be used for the recovery of acetic acid from black liquor prior to bioethanol fermentation. Recovery of value-added chemicals such as acetic-, formic- and lactic acid using LLE from Kraft black liquor was studied. Acetic acid and formic acid have been reported to be strong inhibitors in fermentation. The study elucidates the effect of three reaction parameters: pH (0.5~3.5), temperature ($25{\sim}65^{\circ}C$), and reaction time (24~48 min). Extraction performance using tri-n-octylphosphine oxide as the extractant was evaluated. The maximum acetic acid concentration achieved from hydrolyzates was 69.87% at $25^{\circ}C$, pH= 0.5, and 36 min. Factorial design was used to study the effects of pH, temperature, and reaction time on the maximum inhibitor extraction yield after LLE. The maximum potential extraction yield of acetic acid was 70.4% at $25.8^{\circ}C$, pH=0.6 and 37.2 min residence time.

Six reagents (water, citric acid, phosphoric acid, oxalic acid, acetic anhydride and maleic anhydride) were evaluated for their effectiveness is degumming rice bran oil. All chemical reagents tested were found to be significantly more effective than water in removing phosphatides from crude rice bran oil. Especially acetic anhydride and phosphoric acid were effective in reducing phosphorous levels (92.5% and 93.3% removeal, respectively). Nonhydratable phospholipids, lysophosphatidyl choline, were removed more effectively by the chemical reagents than by the water degumming. The major phospholipid(PL) components were phophatidyl choline. Oleic, linolieic and palmitic acids were the major fatty acids of PL in rice bran acetone insolubles(AI). The AI recovered by acetic anhydride degumming produced the most stable emulsions. However, the AI obtained from phophoric acid or oxalic acid treatments had very poor emulsifying properties.

Two new prodrugs of lonazolac, lonazolac acetic acid ester and lonazolac argininate, were prepared and examined for physicochemical properties and biopharmaceutical characteristics. The prodrugs were stable in solid state and lonazolac argininate showed higher dissolution rate than lonazolacca in both artificial gastric and intestinal juices. These prodrugs have higher analgegic effect than that of lonazolac-Ca in mice, and increased anti-inflammatory activities in rats. In addition, ulcerogenic effects and acute toxicity of these prodrugs were lower than those of lonaaolac-Ca. Lonazolac acetic acid ester showed larger area under the plasma concentration-time curves (AUC) than that of lonazolac. Therefore, it was suggested that these prodrugs of lonazolac have advantages over lonzolac-Ca for not only enhanced bioavailability but also decreased ulcerogenic and toxic effects.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of various organic acids on microbial characteristics and Salmonella typhimurium in pork loins. Fresh pork loins were sprayed with various organic acids such as lactic acid, citric acid and acetic acid at various concentrations (0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2%). After spraying, the samples were packaged by HDPE film under air and stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for 14 days, and analyzed. Microbial deterioration of pork loins during the aerobic cold storage was delayed by organic acid spray. The bactericidal effect of acids increased with the increasing concentration. However, the inhibitory activity of organic acids during the storage varied with the kinds and concentrations of the acids. As for total plate counts, acetic acid was found to have the highest bactericidal activity, whereas citric acid was found to be the most inhibitory for coliform and S. typhimurium.

A greenhouse experiment was conducted to evaluate the composition of organic acids on the bioavailability of heavy metals in the rhizosphere of corn (Zea mays L.) over 12 weeks after treatment of biosolids. After planting the plants were sampled at 12th week and analyzed for heavy metals in shoot and root and organic acids in the rhizosphere. Results showed that biomass yields of Zea mays L. grown on biosolids-treated media were significantly higher than those grown on standard media. The effect of biosolids on biomass yields of Zea mays L. was in order of Riverside ${\approx}$ Los Angeles ${\approx}$ MWRDGC > Milorganite > Nu-earth > standard media. Metal uptake by Zea mays L. was closely related with the contents contained on biosolids treated. In the plot treated with Nu-earth the uptake of Cd and Zn by shoot was significantly higher than those at the plots treated with other biosolids. The uptake patterns of Cd and Zn by root were similar to those of shoot. The uptake of Cr and Ni was significantly higher with application of Nu-earth over other biosolids. In all cases, the major organic acids in the rhizoshpere were lactic, acetic, propionic, butyric, and oxalic acids. Other organic acids were glutaric and succinic and occasionally, pyruvic and tartaric acids were also found. And the organic acid compositions did not vary significantly with the treatments of biosolids. Butyric and acetic acids were distinctively dominant both in the standard and the biosolids treatments.

Growth inhibition of Compylobacter jejuni ATCC 33291 was observed in the presence of various preservatives at various temperatures. The addition of ethanol (0.5% to 5%), hydrogen peroxide (0.05%), acetic acid (1%), propionic acid, benzoic acid, and sorbic acid showed strong antibacterial activities against C. jejuni at pH 5.5 or 6.5. The addition of 1% acetic acid and lactic acid were most effective at $42{\circ}C, followed by $25{\circ}C$ and $4{\circ}C$. This indicated that the inhibitory effect was temperature dependent. In the chicken model system, the practical death rate of C. jejuni in the FBP-media with 1% acetic temperatures ($4{\circ}$C$, $25{\circ}$C, and $42{\circ}$). Therefore, precaution has to be taken in the use of organic acids as a disinfectant in the chicken slaughterhouse.
