The purpose of this study is to develop value-added functional gruels by adding ginseng powder and fresh ginseng to Tarakjuk which is Korean traditional soup. The results of this study are summarized as follows. Tarakjuk with ginseng powder showed the decrease in the moisture level significantly($\alpha$=0.001) when the amount of ginseng powder added was increased. Tarakjuk with fresh ginseng showed the increase in the moisture level significantly($\alpha$=0.001) when the amount of ginseng was increased. The lightness decreased when the amount of ginseng added increased. Redness and yellowness also tend to increase when the amount of ginseng added was increased. pH and sugar content ratio were not significantly different between the two samples. Tarakjuk with ginseng powder showed the decrease in spreadability when the amount of ginseng powder added raised, and Tarakjuk with fresh ginseng showed the opposite result, so we could figure out that increasement of Tarakjuk spreadability made the decrease of viscosity, and the decrease of spreadability made the increasement of viscosity. The result of acceptance test showed GPT1.0, and FGT3.0 acceptance was the highest. In conclusion, Tarakjuk with 1% ginseng powder and Tarakjuk with 3% fresh ginseng were the optimum for all characteristics when produced.

We prepared extracts from bark, leaf and fruit of Sorbus commixta Hedl using by water and ethanol. To test for mutagenicity and antimutagenicity on extracts, we used Rec assay and Ames test. The result of Rec assay, the extracts of the Sorbus commixta Hedl did not show a DNA-damage activity. The results of Ames test were provided that extracts of Sorbus commixta Hedl showed $43{\sim}73\;%$ antimutagenic activities. In the inhibition ratio of the growth of several human cancer cells (A549, HepG2, MCF7), 91% of MCF7 cell growth, 94% of A549 cell growth and 91% HepG2 cell growth were inhibited by adding 1mg/ml of fruit ethanol extracts, bark ethanol extracts and fruit ethanol extracts, respectively. There was a little cytotoxicity on human normal hephatocyte (WRL68), extracts(1mg/ml) showed over the 70% survival.

The cement industry brought very severe environment problems with massive carbon dioxide during its production. To solve this problem, attempts on Alkali-Activated Slag (AAS) concrete that perfectly substitutes industrial by-products such as ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) for cement are being actively made. AAS concrete is possible to have high strength development at room temperature, however, it is difficult to ensure the working time due to the fast setting time and the loss of workabillity because of the alkali reaction. In this study, the early age properties of alkali activated slag mortar are investigated to obtain the fundamental data for AAS concrete application to structural members. The water-binder ratio (W/B) was fixed at 0.35 and sodium hydroxide and waterglass as alkali activator was used. The compressive strength, the flow and the ultrasonic pulse velocity were measured according to the type of superplasticisers, which were naphthalene(N), lignin(L), melamine(M) and PC(P), up to a maximum of 2 percent by the mass of GGBFS. The results showed that adding melamine type of superplasticizer improved the fluidity of AAS mortar without decreasing the compressive strength, while naphthalene and polycarbonate type of superplasticizer had little effect on the fluidity of AAS mortar.

In this study, among 10 medicinal plants extracted with 50%-ethanol, antimicrobial activities measured by paper disc method were showed in Scutellaria baicalensis (Sb) on Leu mesenteroides and in Phellodendron amurene (Pa) on Lac. plantarum and Leu. mesenteroides. While 0.05∼0.2% of Pa extracts showed also relatively strong growth inhibition of both strains of lactic acid bacteria cultured in MRS broth for 24 hours at 3$0^{\circ}C$, Sb extract at concentration of 0.1% showed similar inhibitory effect on Leu mesenteroides to that of 0.05% of Pa extract. Addition of 0.02∼0.04% of Pa extracts to kimchi lowered effectively extents of pH decrease and acidity increase, and numbers of lactic acid bacteria and total bacteria compared to those of control during fermentation at 4$^{\circ}C$. This extending effect on fermentation period was obtained by adding 0.04% in case of Sb. Mixed extracts of Pa and Sb (Pa-Sb) by ratio 1 : 1 delayed also fermentation of kimchi at 0.03∼0.04%. In sensory evaluation kimchi containing 0.04% of Pa extract were less sour than kimchi containing 0.02% of Sb extract and/or control at late stage of fermentation.

Objectives: This study investigates the current state of consuming breakfast among elementary school students residing in Malang, East Java, Indonesia, and to identify factors that influence breakfast behavior. Methods: The research model was set up as per the health belief model, and slightly modified by adding the subjective normative factors of the theory of planned behavior. The survey was conducted from July 17 to August 15, 2017 using a questionnaire, after receiving the permission PNU IRB (2017_60_HR). Results: The subjects were 77 boys (49.4%) and 79 girls (50.6%) suffering from malnutrition with anemia (21.2%) and stunting ratio of Height for Age Z Score (HAZ) (11.5%). Furthermore, moderate weakness (14.8%) and overweight and obesity (12.3%) by Body Mass Index for Age Z Score (BMIZ) were coexistent. According to the results obtained for breakfast, 21.8% did not eat breakfast before school, with 18.8% of the reasons for skipping breakfast being attributed to lack of food. Even for subjects partaking breakfast, only about 10% had a good balanced diet. The average score of behavioral intention on eating breakfast was 2.60 ± 0.58. The perceived sensitivity, perceived severity, perceived benefits, and self-efficacy of the health belief model correlated with breakfast behavior. Of these, self-efficacy (β=0.447, R²=0.200) and perceived sensitivity (β=0.373, R²=0.139) had the greatest effect on breakfast behavior. Mother was the largest impact person among children. Conclusions: In order to increase the level of breakfast behavior intention among children surveyed in Indonesia, we determined the effectiveness by focus on education which helps the children recognize to be more likely to get sick when they don't have breakfast, and increase their confidence in ability to have breakfast on their own. We believe there is a necessity to seek ways to provide indirect intervention through mothers, as well as impart direct nutrition education to children.

Copolyimide membranes of different chemical structure based on pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA)/methylendianiline(MDA) were prepared by varying their chemical compositions with adding meta-phenylendiamine (MPD), para- phenylendiamine (PPD), 2,4,6- trimethyl-1,3-phenylenediamine(TriMeMPD) as a co-monomer. The $N_2$ and $O_2$ permeation properties are qualitatively correlated to specific free volume and intersegmental distance of membrane. The partial replacement of MDA with MPD or PPD caused in the PMDA/MDA based membranes increase in density, and decrease in free volume, d-spacing, consequently resulted in decreased permeability coefficient. In the case of TriMeMPD, opposite results were observed. In all membranes, the permeability coefficients were pressure independent, and membranes which have high permeability coefficient showed low $N_2/O_2$ ideal separation factor as an usual manner. The permeability coefficient also increased with temperature and $N_2/O_2$ ideal separation factor decreased. The increase ratio of the $N_2$ permeability coefficient was larger than that of $O_2$.

This study was carried out to develop a continuous process for recovering phosphorus in swine slurry. Magnesium chloride ($MgCl_2$) was used in the test as a magnesium source and the pH was regulated by adding NaOH and aerating. The results showed that the recovery rate of soluble phosphorus (SP) has increased with the molar ratios increased. In case of pH regulated with NaOH, the recovery rates of SP with molar ratio of 1:1.5 were over 95% from both farms. The removal of ammonia-nitrogen was at levels of $4{\sim}9%$. With aeration treatment, the SP recovery rate was 66% and the removal rate of ammonia-nitrogen was 15%. The treatment of NaOH to increase pH showed better SP recovery efficiency than the aeation treatment. However, in case of ammonia-nitrogen removal, the treatment of aeration showed better results than the NaOH treatment.

A feeding trial was carried out to investigate the effect of dietary complex probiotics on performance. egg qualities and intestinal microflora in laying hens. Three hundred twenty ISA Brown laying hens, 34 weeks of age, were randomly allotted to four dietary treatments containing 0, 0.1, 0.2 and 0.4% complex probiotics for 12 weeks. There were four replicates per treament. Total egg production, soft and broken egg number tended to improve as dietary complex probiotics increased, but was not significantly different. Average egg weight was significantly higher in the 0.1% and 0.2% complex probiotics than the control(P<0.05). Daily egg mass also increased by adding complex probiotics compared to that of control, but was not statistically different. No significant difference was found in feed intake and feed conversion ratio. Eggshell breaking strength and thicknes were not significantly different, whereas yolk color was significantly lower in the supplemental 0.2% probiotics than the comtrol at 12 weeks of age(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in Haugh unit. Total number of cecum Lactobacillus and naerobes were significantly higher in the complex probiotics than control(p.0.05). However, the number of ileal Lactobacillus and naerobe were not significantly different. It was concluded that dietary complex probiotics could improve the egg weight and intestinal beneficial microbes.

This experiment was conducted to find out the possibility for reducing herbicidal dose of the recommended herbicides in combining with the plant growth regulator "chlorflurenol" at the Yeongnam Crop Experiment Station, from 1981 to 1982. Chlorflurenol itself exhibited weed suppression effect against Monochoria raginalis Presl., Rotala indica Koehne, Cyperus difformis L., Lindernia procrembens Philcox, etc. and its effect increased as the concentrations of chlorflurenol increased from 100 to 1,000 ㎖/㏊. Combination of chlorflurenol with butachlor or thiobencarb, showing synergistic effect, reduced their recommended herbicidal rates by 50 to 75%, showing 90% of weed control rate, stic but combined treatment between chlorflurenol and bentazon showed an antagonistic effect since bentazon had poor control ability to Echinochloa crusgalli Beauv. An application of chlorflurenol showed no significant effect on rice growth, in terms of dry weight, but it resulted in the decrease in the ratio of leaf blade to other non-photosynthetic organ.

This study was carried out to compare the biological activities of Epjmedium koreanum Nakai grown wild in Korea and China. The antioxidative effect of E. koreanum Nakai-extracts grown wild in Gangwondo was 78%, which was higher than that in China as 71%. The inhibition ratio of growing cancer cells was estimated as 89, 91 and 86% for human liver, lung and breast cancer cell lines, respectively in adding 0.1 g/l of ethanol extracts of E. koreanum grown in Korea. The hepatoprotective effect and Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) inhibiting effect of Korean one were also observed as 124 and 87%, respectively, which were also higher than those produced in China. There was not much difference between Korean and Chinese one in inhibiting ${\alpha}-glucosidase$ activities in all ranges of supplement. It was proved that most effective extraction solvent was mixed type as water and ethanol (1:1, v/v) to have higher biological activities from both Korean and Chinese ones.
