  • The residue after hot water extraction of blue crab, Portunus trituberculata, was hydrolyzed for utilizing the byproducts as seasonings. The acid(5N HCl) hydrolyzates were then neutralized with $Na_2CO_3$, 5N NaOH or 5N NaOH hydrolyzate, while the alkali hydrolyzates (5N NaOH) were also neutralized with 5N HCl or 5N HCl hydrolyzate. The total nitrogen and formol nitrogen contents increased, and the platability of the hydrolyzates was also enhanced by neutralization. The released amino acid contents from the neutralized hydrolyzates with $Na_2CO_3$, 5N NaOH and 5N NaOH hydrolyzate were $2,274mg\%,\;2,105.0mg\%$ and $2,683.5mg\%$, respectively. Amino acid contents from the neutralized hydrolyzates with 5N HCl and 5N HCl hydrolyzate were $1,352.5mg\%$ and $2,498.8mg\%$, respectively. In the decolorization of hydrolyzates using decolorization agent, powdered active carbon showed good decolorizing effect. Powdered active carbon decreased total nitrogen and formol nitrogen contents in direct relationship to the increase in its concentration. The effective concentration of active carbon used as decolorization agent showed as $1\~2\%$ of the crab hydrolyzate. Salt contents could be decreased at 37 brix by desalination method such as the evaporation of the hydrolyzate contents.

  • The purpose of this study was to determine the efficacy of Aster koraiensis Nakai as a natural health food source. To accomplish this, the general and antioxidative contents of A. koraiensis were measured. Total contents of carbohydrates, crude protein, crude lipid, and ash were 72.15%, 13.49%, 5.09%, and 9.27%, respectively. Caloric content of A. koraiensis was 349.70 kcal, while total dietary fiber was 49.79%. Total proteins consisted of 18 different kinds of amino acids. Contents of essential and non-essential amino acids were 4.6 and 5.5 g/100 g, respectively. Regarding mineral contents, P was the most abundant mineral, followed by K, Ca, and Na. Therefore, A. koraiensis is an alkali material. Total phenol contents of the hot water and 80% ethanolic extracts of A. koraiensis were $87.7{\pm}5.01$ and $112.4{\pm}3.41$ mg GAE/g, respectively. Total flavonoid contents of the hot water and 80% ethanolic extracts were $86.6{\pm}3.71$ and $95.1{\pm}8.00$ mg RE/g, respectively. The DPPH radical-scavenging activity and reducing power of the 80% ethanolic extract of A. koraiensis were higher than those of the water extract. Therefore, the general nutrients and antioxidant bioactive materials in A. koraiensis are potential materials for health foods.

  • Trienzyme digestion (AOAC Official Method 2004.05) procedure using protease, ${\alpha}$-amylase, and chicken pancreas conjugase was evaluated to determine its usefulness in the microbiological quantitation of total folate in foods. Folate values obtained by alkali hydrolysis (Korean Food Standards Codex) were compared to those obtained by the trienzyme method for four certified reference materials (CRM) representing diverse matrixes. Trienzyme treatment increased measurable folate from most CRM compared to levels found after alkali hydrolysis. The largest increases were observed with CRM 487 (pig liver, 5.8-fold) and CRM 121 (whole meal flour, 3.1-fold) after trienzyme digestion. Using trienzyme digestion method, total folate contents of raw and blanched edible plants were determined. Eleutherococcus senticosus ($146.9{\mu}g/100g$) showed the highest total folate content, followed by Aster glehni F. Schmidt ($142.8{\mu}g/100g$) and Ledebouriella seseloides H. Wolff ($140.4{\mu}g/100g$) on a wet weight basis. Blanching of samples resulted in an insignificant decrease in folate content for five samples and 11~63% reduction for nine samples. Our finding suggests that trienzyme digestion method is accurate for the determination of food folate in leafy vegetables.

  • Granitic rocks in the Cheongsan area cosist of three plutons-Baegrog granodiorite, Cheongsan porphyritic granite, and two mica granite. Amphilboles from the Baegrog granodiorite belong to the calcic amphilbole group and show compositional variations from magnesio-hornblende in the core to actinolitic hornblende in the rim. Biotites from the three granites represent intermediate compositions between phlogopite and annite. Muscovites from the two mica granite are considered to be primary muscovite in terms of the occurrence and mineral chemistry. Each granitic rock reveals systematic variation of major oxide contents with $SiO_2$. Major oxide variation trends of the Baegrog granodiorite are fairly different from those of Cheongsan porphyritic granite and two mica granite. The latter two granitic rocks are also different with each other in variation trends for some oxides. Thus three granitic rocks in the Cheongsan area were solidifield from the independent magmas of chemically different, heterogeneous origin. The granitic rocks in the area show calc-alkaline nature. The whole rock geochemistry shows that the Baegrog granodiorite and Cheongsan porphyritic granite belong to metaluminous, I-type granite, whereas the two mica granite to peraluminous, I/S-type granite. The opaque mineral contents and magnetic susceptibility represent that the granitic rocks in the area are ilmenite-series granite, indicating that each magma was solidified under relatively reducing environment. The tectonic environment of the granitic activity in the area seems to have been active continental margin. Alkali feldspar megacryst in the Cheongsan porphyritic granite is considered to be magmatic, judging from the crystal size, shape, arrangement, and distribution pattern of inclusions. The petro-graphical characteristics of the Cheongsan porphyritic granite can be explained by two stage crystallization. Under the smaller degree of undercooling the alkali feldspar megacrysts rapidly grew owing to slow rate of nucleation and fast growth rate. At the larger degree of undercooling the nucleation rate and density drastically increased and the small crystals of the matrix were formed.

  • Changes of cell wall components and softening enzyme during the preparation of persimmon pickles with soy sauce and soy paste were investigated. The contents of alcohol insoluble substance and cell wall extracted from persimmon pickles in soy sauce and soy paste were gradually decreased to the 20th day of storage and then decreased rapidly, but the contents of water soluble material extracted from persimmon pickles in soy sauce and soy paste was increased during the storage time $(0{\sim}50\;days)$. The contents of lignin, pectin and acid-soluble hemicellulose of persimmon pickles in soy sauce and soy paste were decreased during the storage, but contents of alkali-soluble hemicellulose was increased. The contents of cellulose almost did not change during storage of pickles. The hardness of persimmon pickles in soy sauce and soy paste was gradually increased up to the 30th day of storage and then decreased. The activities of polygalacturonase and pectinesterase as softening enzyme in persimmon pickles with soy sauce and soy paste increased during storage. And ${\beta}-galactosidase$ activity was slightly increased to the 30th day of storage and after increased rapidly.

  • Mineral composition and chemical properties of Hwangto (reddish residual soil) that used in feeding of cattles at Iksan, Jeollabuk-do, Korea were examined according to particle size separation such as gravel, sand, silt, coarse clay and fine clay. Mineral composition analyses reveal that gravel and sand are mainly composed of quartz and feldspars and that kaolin mineral and illite are dominant in clay and silt. Iron oxides are mainly included in fine clay. According to chemical analyses of major elements, Al, Fe and $H_2O$ contents are increased with decreasing of particle size. This trend well agrees with increase of clay minerals in smaller particles, Chemical analyses of trace elements indicate that contents of Zn, Rb, Sr, Ba, Pb significantly differ with particle sizes. Ba and Sr are included in feldspars since these elements are abundant in sand containing abundant feldspars. Pb and Sm are abundant in sample before particle size separation, but the contents are significantly decreased after separation. Therefore, most of these elements appear to be existed as removable phase. Nb, La, Th, Ce are more abundant in silt. The contents of all the other trace elements tend to be increased in smaller particles containing more clay minerals. The contents of changeable cations and teachable elements in acid and alkali solutions are high in clay samples. All the above results indicate that using the portion of smaller particle of Hwangto for livestock feed rather than bulk Hwangto can improve cation exchangeable capacity, ion leaching capacity and sorption properties.

  • The purpose of this study is to determine the possibility of using Codonopsis lanceolata leaves as natural health food source. To accomplish this purpose, the contents of general and antioxidative nutrients of Codonopsis lanceolata leaves were measured. The contents of carbohydrate, crude protein, crude lipid and ash were 65.09%, 18.02%, 1.34% and 9.72%. And the calories of Codonopsis lanceolata leaves were 288.36 Kcal. The protein contained total 16 different kinds of amino acids. The contents of essential and non-essential amino acids were 5,906.41 mg and 7,551.56 mg, respectively. K was the most mineral followed by Ca, P, and Mg, which means Codonopsis lanceolata leaves are alkali material. Total phenolic contents of Codonopsis lanceolata leaves were 1.87 mg/g, and total flavonoids contents were estimated as 1.87 mg/g. Based on the above results, we deemed that the Codonopsis lanceolata leaves might have potential antioxdant activities. The general nutrients and other antioxidatant bioactive materials in Codonopsis lanceolata leaves were also potential materials for good health food. It is expected that a follow up study of Codonopsis lanceolata leavesthrough developing processed food and evaluation of their functional properties would provide useful information as a source of medicinal foods.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of recycled aggregates powder (RP) contents on recycled aggregates (RA) using fly-ash (FA) mortar in a condition of zero cement targeting earth filling materials, and the results can be summarized as follows. First, there was a tendency that as RP contents increased, W/B and air contents increased also. In the case of compressive strength, the strength was hardly developed at the early age, which was prior to 14 days; however, with the starting point of 14 days of age, strength of around 1.5~2.0 MPa was developed when it arrived at 28 days. At a curing temperature of $20^{\circ}C$, the more RP contents increased, the more the compressive strength increased in comparison with FA 100% at all levels except RP 100 %, showing the highest compressive strength at RP 25 %. At a curing temperature of $35^{\circ}C$, the temperature-dependence appeared to be large, as the RP contents were decreased compared to the curing temperature of $20^{\circ}C$. In addition, based on SEM analysis, this study was able to confirm that a pozzolanic reaction formed by an alkali stimulus of RA with the lapse of certain days even in 100 percent FA, causing the densification of tissues, and with RP 25%, hydrate was created the most densely by the hydration of unhydrated cement particles and pozzolanic reaction of FA.

  • This study was conducted to elucidate the shelf-life and quality changes in relation to biochemical components in leaf lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.). The shelf-life of leaf lettuce at room temperature was 2 to 3 days. But it was extended to 3 weeks by packaging in a 0.01 mm thick polyethylene film sack when stored at $3^{\circ}C$. The ascorbic acid contents of fresh leaf lettuce was 25 mg per 100 gram fresh weight. The acid at room temperature was almost destroyed after 4 days storage. But the contents of ascorbic acid at $3^{\circ}C$ maintained about 50 to 60% of the initial level in packaging of polyethylene film sack after 8 days storage. The content of chlorophyll was greatly decreased at room temperature but no significant changes were found at $3^{\circ}C$. The changes of total sugar and reducing sugar contents during storage were not very different between treatments. The contents of alkali soluble protein and free amino acid gradually increased in the treatments of polyethylene film sack packaging during storage in general, but the contents decreased after the increase in control treatment. Nucleic acid content, peroxidase and polyphenoloxidase activities were measured and discussed in relation to the leaf senescence.

  • We have investigated the photocatalytic activity for the decomposition of methyl orange on the pure $LaCoO_3$ and metal ion doped $LaCoO_3$ perovskite-typeoxides prepared using microwave process. In the case of pure $LaCoO_3$ and cesium ion doped $LaCoO_3$ catalysts, the formation of the perovskite crystalline phase was confirmed regardless of the preparation method. From the results of UV-Vis DRS, the pure $LaCoO_3$ and cesium ion doped $LaCoO_3$ catalysts have the similar absorption spectrum up to visible region. The chemisorbed oxygen plays an important role on the photocatalytic decomposition of methyl orange and the higher the contents of chemisorbed oxygen, the better performance of photocatalyst.
