  • Kojic acid production by Aspergillus flavus strain S44-1 using sucrose as a carbon source was carried out in a 250-mL shake flask and a 2-L stirred tank fermenter. For comparison, production of kojic acid using glucose, fructose and its mixture was also carried out. Kojic acid production in shake flask fermentation was 25.8 g/L using glucose as the sole carbon source, 23.6 g/L with sucrose, and 6.4 g/L from fructose. Reduced kojic acid production (13.5 g/L) was observed when a combination of glucose and fructose was used as a carbon source. The highest production of kojic acid (40.2 g/L) was obtained from 150 g/L sucrose in a 2 L fermenter, while the lowest kojic acid production (10.3 g/L) was seen in fermentation using fructose as the sole carbon source. The experimental data from batch fermentation and resuspended cell system was analysed in order to form the basis for a kinetic model of the process. An unstructured model based on logistic and Luedeking-Piret equations was found suitable to describe the growth, substrate consumption, and efficiency of kojic acid production by A. flavus in batch fermentation using sucrose. From this model, it was found that kojic acid production by A. flavus was not a growth-associated process. Fermentation without pH control (from an initial culture pH of 3.0) showed higher kojic acid production than single-phase pH-controlled fermentation (pH 2.5, 2.75, and 3.0).

  • Based on the supply status statistics of new renewable energy according to public obligation system, current status of overall application centered on solar heat, solar ray, and geothermal heat as energy sources that can be applied to buildings may be analyzed as follows. (1) After the public obligation system, the investment costs on the total construction costs by years were between 5.21% and 7.12%: they were 7.12% in 2004, where the system was initially implemented; and they were gradually declined from 2005 to 2011, 5.76% in average. The ratio of equipment investment per energy sources in the total construction costs was 5.9%, which was slightly more than the obliged ratio. The order of investment costs per energy source was solar ray, geothermal heat, and solar heat. (2) Among the 1,433 sites in the plan of new renewable energy installation based on the public obligation system, "for cultural & social use" was most in target institution, and facilities for education & research was most in use classification, followed by public working, culture & rally, and sports. The number of facilities applied according to the case for planning installation per use classification of the target institution was between 1.1 and 1.5, or 1.4 in average of energy source. Conclusively, the authors of this study investigated overall current status of new renewable energy supply from the analysis of statistic data, and it may be needed of further supplementation of various examinations by visiting investigation and interviews with practitioners based on classification of use of target institutions.

  • Despite the economic downturn, the amount of clothing being discarded is increasing due to the fast fashion. The purpose of this study is to propose a fashion sharing service development to settle the rational consumption culture along with the abandoned clothes problem. Shared fashion rental service has attracted as a solution to environmental problems not only when clothes are incinerated but also in manufacturing process, but there is a lack of precedent research. Therefore, this study is meaningful in that it has developed two development plans based on the results of analysis of service case based on three factors by Rachel Botsman. First, active community development. Second, it is the creation of goods through activation of the shared economy. In this study, there are limitations that can't be proved through actual application, so more research is needed through empirical studies on actual users in the future.

  • Modern society has been transformed into a digital emotional society that could gradually be seen, felt, and enjoyed by the diversification of personal consumption desires due to digital development. Accordingly, in fashion, an original fashion sense that arose out of classical and conventional thinking has become important and there is an increasing interest in patchwork quilts. The purpose of this study lies in contributing to the development and utilization of creative and emotional fashion design by expanding the mental changes that have emerged in modern society to creative areas after analyzing the classification and expression characteristics of the type cases of patchwork quilt techniques expressed in modern fashion. In addition, it is meaningful to examine how the expressive characteristics of patchwork quilts are expressed in the digital emotion era. This study paralleled literature research and empirical case studies. In the scope and method of research, the theatrical research was centered on literature data. For visual data, website photos were collected, limited to women's clothing among the collections from Fall & Winter 2014 to Spring & Summer 2017. After drawing the expression types of patchwork quilts extracted from the previous research based on the design formative factors, the fashion-related expert group analyzed the expressive characteristics of 501 photographs in which the patchwork quilt of the designer clothing collection were reflected. As a result of analysis, the expressive types appeared in the order of diversification of techniques and materials, extended dual images, new formative composition, and reconstruction of traditional patchwork. In this study, the expressive characteristics of patchwork quilts expressed in contemporary fashion are analyzed and drawn as variability, compromise, convergence, and playfulness. Through this, it is hoped that this study can be used variously in the development of fashion design by expanding the interpretation of costume culture.

  • This study investigated the recognition and preference of native local foods in area by students living in Jeonju. Statistical data analysis was completed using the SPSS 10.0 program. The recognition of native local foods was generally poor: Among 56 kinds of native foods only Jeonjubibimbab, Jeonjukongnamulkukbob and Sunsoonsabockbunjasul were highly recognized, whereas the other native foods (such as Pungchyunjangaguvi. Namwonchuatang, Jeonjukongnamulkukbob, Sunsoonsabockbunjasul, Pungchyunjangaguyi, Namwonchuatang, Minmulgokiajuk etc.) were very poorly recognized by students. About $48.6\%$ of the students acquired the knowledge on cooking the native local foods from their mother or grandmother. About half of the students had eaten the native local foods in a restaurant, but not at home. The reasons to eat the native local foods were 'curiosity', 'favorite' and 'consider about health and nutrition'. The most common frequency of consumption of the native foods by the students was once a month($24.0\%$). However $74.9\%$ of the students did not eat local foods because they did not have a opportunity to eat them. About $49.1\%$ of the students responded that the 'unknown cooking method' was an important problem for the further development for native local foods. Most of the students($97.3\%$) responded, somewhat hypocritically, that native local foods were a very important part of our culture, so they must be maintained. In conclusion, the further development of native local foods was dependent on the cooperation with different institutions (e.g. marketing of local mass media, local events, family education).

  • The synergistic effect on phosphate solubilization of single- and co-inoculation of two phosphate solubilizing bacteria, Burkholderia anthina PSB-15 and Enterobacter aerogenes PSB-16, was assessed in liquid medium and green gram plants. Co-inoculation of two strains was found to release the highest content of soluble phosphorus ($519{\mu}g\;mL^{-1}$) into the medium, followed by single inoculation of Burkholderia strain ($492{\mu}g\;mL^{-1}$) and Enterobacter strain ($483{\mu}g\;mL^{-1}$). However, there was no significant difference between single inoculation of bacterial strain and co-inoculation of two bacterial strains in terms of phosphorous release. The highest pH reduction, organic acid production, and glucose consumption were observed in the culture medium co-inoculated with PSB-15 and PSB-16 strains rather than that of single inoculation. Based on the plant growth promotion bioassay, co-inoculated mung bean seedlings recorded 9% and 8% higher shoot and root growth, respectively, compared to the control. Therefore, in conclusion, co-inoculation of the strains B. anthina and E. aerogenes displayed better performance in stimulating plant growth than inoculation of each strain alone. However, considering the short assessment period of the present study, we recommend engaging in further work under field conditions in order to test the suitability of these strains as bio-inoculants.

  • Women are playing an increasing role in the society amid the increase in the age at first marriage, reduced family size, and the weakening solidarity among family members. Gold Miss is a newly coined word which reflects the change in the value of women in the wake of the individualism and pluralism amid the structural change. Gold Miss means a new X generation that is sensitive to the latest fashion and trend with high purchasing power and self-attainment goal. They do not spare any effort to invest in themselves, lead the new culture and set the cultural trend that goes beyond the simple consumption, and come into the spotlight both socially and economically. The outcome of the analysis on the Gold Miss fashion which was revealed in the mass media indicated that the fashion was the instrument to express their own images and personalities. Though they may be some difference depending on the occupation, personality, values, and others, they pursue sophisticated, intellectual, and emotional office-look that takes the trend and personality into account. In addition, they prefer business casual attire, and pursue the total fashion with perfection which uses the gorgeous bright and vivid color, daring color, accent color arrangement and accessories. The Gold Miss fashion implies the self-identity, high-end feature, and embody the symbolism of information, which the analysis on the feature and fashion of Golden Miss indicated.
