Objectives : The aim of this study was to evaluate the pH and buffering capacity in some commercial fermented milks in Korea. Methods : The study was carried ouf from June to August, 2012. In 35 liquid type, 79 condense-stirred type and 71 condense-drink type fermented milks, available on the market, pH and buffering capacity were measured. Titration(with NaOH) was used to determine the buffering effect of each fermented milk. They were titrated with 1 M sodium hydroxide, added in 0.1 milliliters increments, until the pH reached about 5.5 and 7.0. Results : The average pH of tested fermented milks was $4.08{\pm}0.27$. The average pH values of fermented milks were $3.64{\pm}0.22$ in liquid type, $4.14{\pm}0.12$ in condense-stirred type, and $4.22{\pm}0.17$ condense-drink type. The average buffering capacity (pH 5.5) of tested fermented milk was $2.40{\pm}0.54$. The average buffering capacity (pH 5.5) of liquid type fermented milk was $2.37{\pm}0.33$, condense-stirred type fermented milk was $2.77{\pm}0.46$ and condense-drink type fermented milk was $2.01{\pm}0.42$. The average buffering capacity (pH 7.0) of tested fermented milks was $4.00{\pm}0.87$. The average buffering capacity (pH 7.0) of liquid type fermented milk was $3.11{\pm}0.36$, condense-stirred type fermented milk was $4.78{\pm}0.55$ and condense-drink type fermented milk was $3.58{\pm}0.59$. Conclusions : The average pH of tested fermented milks in this study was lower than pH 4.5. The type of fermented milks was an important factor for selection of fermented milk which is related with enamel erosion.

IETF proposed the Fast Handover mechanism to reduce the latency during which the mobile node is effectively disconnected from the Internet. However, the Fast Handover mechanism did not resolve packet loss and packet disordering problem. In this paper, we propose buffering mechanisms to resolve above problems in the Fast Handover mechanism. Though the simulation, we showed that packet loss and disordering problem have been absolutely resolved. In addition, our proposal reduced about 27$\%$ of the delay time by the buffering mechanism.

This study investigated the relation between stressful life events and adjustment in elementary school children, with particular emphasis on the potential main and stress-buffering effects of social support and social problem solving skills. 4-6 graders (N=170) completed the Social Support Appraisals Scale(SSAS) and social problem solving skills task. The SSAS is a 31-item measure that taps the child's perceptions or appraisals of family, peer, and teacher support. Their parents provided ratings of stress in the child's environment and ratings of the child's behavioral adjustment. Teachers provided ratings of the child's behavioral and academic adjustment. Hierarchical multiple regression analyses and graphic display were used to analyze the data. The major findings were that (1) The results for parent-rated problems supported a stress-buffering model for family support and problem solving. (2) The results for teacher-rated problems were consistent with the stress-buffering model of social support. (3) The results for grade-point average supported a main effect model for problem solving. peer support, and family support. In addition, teacher support had the strongest stress-buffering effect on grade-point average.

In this paper, we address the channel zapping time problem of video streaming services based on HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) on smart Over-The-Top Set-Top Boxes (OTT STBs). Experimental analysis of the channel zapping time, show that smart OTT STBs inevitably suffer from the accumulated zapping time through channel change request, Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) leave/join, synchronization delay, video buffer delay, and STB processing delay when providing HLS services. As a practical solution for the zapping time reduction, an adaptive buffering method is proposed. The proposed method exploits two adaptive buffers added to the basic HLS player. These two adaptive buffers are responsible for constantly buffering previous and next channels relative to the current channel. Implementation and test results show that a stable zapping time less than one second can be achieved even under diverse video bitrate changes and varying network conditions by the proposed adaptive buffering method.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of simulated acid solution(SAS) on acid buffering capacity, chlorophyll content and butrient leacking in 4 herb species(Petunia hybrida Vilm, Gomphrena globosa L. Celosia cristat L. Salvia officinallis L) . The acid buffering capacity in the leves was increased in the treatment of pH 3.0 in Celosia L., whereas it was increased at pH 4.0 in Petunia Petunia hybrida Vilm. and Gomprean globosa L.. But, the acid buffering capacity of the leaves did not work at ph 2.0 treatment in 4 herb species. With decreasing pH level, the chlorophyll content of Petunia hybrida Vilm. and Gomphrena globosa L. Was markedly decreased than that of Gelosia cristata L. and Savia officinalis L. As the pH levels decreased from 5.6 to 2.0 the nutrient leaching from leaves was significantly increased in 4 herb species. In pH 4.0 and 5.6, the concentrations of nutrient leaching from leaves were higher in Perunia hybrida Vilm. and Gomphrean globosa L. than Gelosia cristata L. and Salvia officinalis L., Based on the results, there was a great differences in response to SAS among the 4 herb species. Im general, Gelosia cristata L. and Salvia officinalis L. represented a higher tolerance to SAS Petunia hybrida Vilm, and Gomphrena globosa L..

Korea Government promotes the installation of buffering retention facility to protect the water environment and prevent the environmental contamination event by toxic materials. Although the buffering retention facility is very important to protect the natural environment through the retention of accidental pollution and initial runoff, much study has not been done to suggest the guide line for the design of the facility. In this study, we suggested the rational items for the design of buffering retention facility based on many experts after we investigated and compared the previous results of many design materials.

IETF proposed Fast Handover mechanism tn reduce the latency during which the mobile node is effectively dusconnected from the Internet. In this paper, we propose three buffering strategies and a bicasting strategy to resolve packet loss and packet disordering problems in Fast Hangover mechanism. Through Java-based simulation we show thats, packet loss and disordering problems have been resolved by our proposal. As the result the buffering and bicasting strategies can reduce the handover delay caused by packet loss and packet disordering, in addition.

This research was conducted to investigate effects of acid buffering capacity and soil component in treatment of phenanthrene using electrokinetic-Fenton process. In Hadong clay of high acid buffering and low iron oxide content, it was difficult to oxidize phenanthrene due to shortage of iron catalyst and scavenger effect of carbonate minerals. The desorbed phenanthrene conductive to Fenton oxidation was transported toward cathode by electroosmotic flow. However, in Youngdong illitic clay, oxidation of phenanthrene near anode readily occurred compared to Hadong clay due to high iron content and low acid buffering capacity.

In order to understand the buffering behavior of hygroscopic fabric under subzero conditions, microclimates of the wool and PET clothing system were measured and compared. Vertical type Man-Clothing-Environment simulator was used to measure the microclimate at the environmental temperature of -10$^{\circ}C$. Buffering capacity was quantified by calculating from the depth and width of the hyperbolic curve of the graph. Hydrophilic wool fabrics showed better buffering capacity at the transient state than hydrophobic PET fabrics; which is attributed to the heat of sorption.

The purpose of this study is to examine the relation between parental strain and marital adjustment of employed mothers after their transition to the parenthood, and to investigate buffering effect of social support on the relation. The parental strain variables (physical strain and emotional strain) appear to be significant predictors of marital adjustment for employed mothers with first baby. The analysis on interaction effect indicates that social support can be a positive buffering indicator. A comparison reveals that mothers with high physical strain have significantly higher marital adjustment than those with low strain. But in the context of high social support, the difference of marital adjustment between the two mothers is reduced.
