The biodegradable bacteria for fats and oils were isolatcd from soil and wastewater. The isolated strain was designated as LW-27 which had high COD removal rate and biodegr2idability on fats and oils, and was identified as pseudomonas chlrorapihis. The cell viability of LW-27 which produced by vacuum drying at $45^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours was 82%. When the wastewater was mixed with LW-27 agent (0.1g/ day) on the activated sludge unit, the removal rates of COD, BOD and n-hexanc extract of the effluents were about 92.9%, 94.8% and 98.0%, respectively.

This study was performed to investigate the influence of dietray food from the three CHinese medicinal herbs(Mugwort, Dried organge peel and Duchung) on lipi d metabolism in rats. Male rats of Sprague-Dawley strain were divided into four dietary groups(Cellulose (CL), Mugwort(MW), Dried organge peel9OP), Duchung(DC)) after three weeks of hyperlipidemic dieting and were fed ad libitum each of the experimental diets for six weeks. The fiber sources of the experimental diets were prepared by drying and milling mugwort, orange peel, duchung and cellulose. Each of the Fiber sources was mixed into the diet to achieve 10g% levels of total dietary fiber. Levels of apparent fat absorption exhibited a significant decrease in the MW and DC groups. The OP group also showed a decreasing trend, but to a lesser extent. The levels of serum total lipid were not significantly different among the four experimental groups. Total serum cholesterol levels were significantly lower in the OP grop that in both the CM and MW group. Serum TG and LDL-cholesterol levels were significantly higher in the DL group than other groups. Serum HDL-cholesterol levels were significantly levels were significantly lower in the CL group than in the other groups. Total lipid and total cholesterol in liver were significantly higher in the CL group than in the other groups. Total lipid and total cholesterol in feces displayed a significantly increase in the MW and DC groups when compared with the CL group. The OP group also showed an increase compared to the CL group.

The aim of the work described in this paper is to develope a constitutive model for the prediction of an unsaturated Soil and to confirm the application of the model, which is composed of the elastic and plastic part in consideration of the matric suction and the net mean stress. From test results, volume changes and deviator stresses are analyzed at each state and their relationships are formulated. And the application of the model to silty sands is con- firmed by the comparison between test and predicted results. During drying-wetting and loading-unloading processes for isotropic states, the agreement between predicted and test results are satisfactory. And predicted deviator stresses are well agreed with test results in shearing process. Overall acceptable predictions are reproduced in high confining pressure. Usefulness of the model is confirmed for the unsat- urated soil except volumetric strain, which is not well agreed with the test results due to deficiency of dilatancy of the model in low confining pressure. It is, therefore, recom- mended to study the behavior of dilatancy for an unsaturated soil.

This paper proposes a model for simulating concrete shrinkage taking into account aggregate restraint. In the model, concrete is regarded as a two-phase material based on shrinkage property. One is paste phase which undergoes shrinkage. Another is aggregate phase which is much more volumetrically stable. In the concrete, the aggregate phase is considered to restrain the paste shrinkage by particle interaction. Strain compatibility was derived under the assumption that there is no relative macroscopic displacement between both phases. Stresses on both phases were derived based on the shrinking stress of the paste phase and the resisting stress of the aggregate phase. Constitutive relation of paste phase was adopted from the study of Yomeyama, K. et al., and that of the aggregate phase was adopted from the author's particle contact density model. The equation for calculating concrete shrinkage considering aggregate restraint was derived from the equilibrium of the two phases. The concrete shrinkage was found to be affected by the free shrinkage of the paste phase, aggregate content and the stiffness of both phases. The model was then verified to be effective for simulating concrete shrinkage by comparing the predicted results with the autogeneous and drying shrinkage test results on mortar and concrete specimens.

The aim of the work described in this paper is to develope a constitutive model for the prediction of an unsaturated clayey soil and to confirm the application of the model. To this end a series of suction controlled isotropic and triaxial compression tests are conducted on clayey soils. Matric suction is controlled by the axis translation technique using high air entry ceramic disk. Total volume change, air and water volume changes are measured by the device made for the experiment. The specimens are compacted by dynamic compaction using a half of Proctor compaction energy with the water contents of 5% drier than the optimum moisture contents. From test results, volume changes and deviator stresses are analyzed at each state and their relationships are formulated. And the application of the model to clayey soils is confirmed by the comparison between test and predicted results. During drying-wetting and loading-unloading processes for isotropic states, the agreement between predicted and test results are satisfactory. And predicted deviator stresses are well agreed with the test results in shearing process, but volumetric strain is not well agreed with the test results in high suctions.

This study was performed to investigate the influence of dietary fibers from the whole foods on the serum lipid level and bowel function in rats. The fiber sources of experimental diets were prepared by drying and milling of cereal(rice bran), vegetables(Korean cabbage, radish), fruit(apple), and sea weeds(laver, sea tangle). Each of fiber sources was mixed into the diet to make the 5% level of total dietary fiber. Male rats of Sprague-Dawley strain were blocked into 8 groups : FF, CC, CE, V1, V2, ER, S1, and S2. The animals were fed ad libitum each of experimental diets for 4 weeks. Serum triglyceride level was not significantly different among groups. The laver group showed the lowest level in the serum total cholesterol. The Korean cabbage group showed the highest level in the serum HDL cholesterol. The longest transit time was observed in the fiber free group and the shortest transit time was observed in the sea tangle group. Absorption rates of calcium were especially lower in the Korean cabbage and the sea tangle groups than the other groups. Magnesium and phosphorus absorption rates were influenced by SDF(Soluble Dietary Fiber) intake and TDF(Total Dietary Fiber) intake, respectively. Mucosa weight in the small intestine showed the tendency to increase by increasing of IDF (Insoluble Dietary Fiber) intake. especially the Korean cabbage group was the heaviest. The activity of maltase in the mucosa of small intestine was the lowest in the radish group.

This study aimed to establish the optimum culture conditions for Mozzarella cheese by using Streptococcus macedonicus LC743, a strain selected for its immunomodulatory activity. For process optimization, 1.0% and 2.0% strain was inoculated and incubated at $32^{\circ}C$ and $35^{\circ}C$, respectively. The general components, bacterial count, total solids, yields, and immunomodulatory activity of the Mozzarella cheese were investigated. When the strain was inoculated at 2.0% and incubated at $32^{\circ}C$, the product quality and immunomodulatory activity was optimal and required minimal processing time. Therefore, 2.0% of S. macedonicus LC743 starter culture was added to milk at $32^{\circ}C$, after pasteurization at $63^{\circ}C$ for 30 min, and agitated for 4~5 min after addition of $230{\mu}L/kg$ of rennet. Curd was made by setting the milk 25~35 min after addition of 0.01~0.02% calcium chloride. The curd was cut at 0.1~0.12% acidity (81 min later) and after heating the cheese to up to $43^{\circ}C$. Whey was removed at an acidity of 0.17~0.18% by agitation for 53 min. Next, cheddaring for 210 min up to an acidity of 0.6~0.65%, stretching at $72{\sim}75^{\circ}C$, and molding at $65{\sim}70^{\circ}C$ were performed, and the product was allowed to cool down to $5^{\circ}C$. Salting was done with a solution of $18{\sim}20^{\circ}B{\acute{e}}$ at $12^{\circ}C$ for 20 min and drying occurred at 80~90% relative humidity at $10^{\circ}C$ for 2~3 days.
