This study was carried out to determine the effect of storage condition, such as temperature or relative humidity (RH) in home-style refrigerator, on the change of quality traits and storage characteristics of Hanwoo M. longissimus to find out the condition for prolongation of shelf-life with maintaining the meat quality for consumers. Samples were sliced in $1{\pm}0.2cm$ thickness, and packed in foamed polystyrene tray with linear low-density polyethylene (LLD-PE) film to simulate the pre-packed Hanwoo loin sold in retail market, then stored in home-style refrigerator ($5^{\circ}C$/17% RH, Control), and chambers of $5^{\circ}C$/55% RH (T1), $5^{\circ}C$/85% RH (T2), and $-1^{\circ}C$/99% RH (T3), respectively. Quality traits (color, pH, water holding capacity, shear force and grilling loss) and storage characteristics (thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, volatile basic nitrogen and total microbes) were measured at 1, 4, 7, 14 and 21 days after storage. Lightness of Hanwoo loin stored in T1, T2 and T3 were higher than that of control until 14 days of storage, however at the end of storage (21 days) control showed significantly higher than other treatments (p<0.05). Redness and Yellowness of Hanwoo loin samples stored in T1 and T3 were significantly higher than others during all storage period (p<0.05). The water holding capacity (WHC) of control was significantly higher than others until 14 days of storage (p<0.05), however, Hanwoo loin stored in T2 was the highest ($63.64{\pm}7.62kg/cm^2$) at 21 days of storage. Hanwoo loin stored in T1 showed significantly lower shear force than others during all storage period (p<0.05). There was no consistent tendency in pH and grilling loss during storage in all treatments. Hanwoo loin stored in T1 showed lower TBARS value than others during storage period, however there was a rapid increase to $0.34{\pm}0.27mg$ malonaldehyde/kg meat at 21 days of storage. And, all the treated samples (from T1 to T3) showed significantly lower VBN values at 21 days of storage (p<0.05). The population of total aerobic microbes were significantly increased in all treatments as storage period increasing, and the population of T3 ($2.28{\pm}0.57logCFU/g$) was the lowest at 21 days of storage (p<0.05). From those results, it could be predicted the better storage condition to maintain the meat quality and prolong the shelf-life of Hanwoo loin by lowering the temperature and adjusting the humidity about 55%.

This study set out to make sponge cake a product of confectionery and bakery to expand the uses of rice bran and conducted a preliminary experiment to revise and supplement the addition of rice bran. The study sought to determine the level of added rice bran, 0~20%, by taking into account the taste, color, and marketability of rice bran in order to provide basic data for the possibilities of new product development and increase the usage of rice bran. As for the general composition, moisture, protein, fat, carbohydrate, and ash content comprised 9.50%, 15.51%, 18.12%, 48.17%, and 8.70% of the rice bran powder respectively. The pH of the dough decreased significantly with increased levels of rice bran. The specific gravity of the dough tended to rise significantly with the addition of rice bran. The group of 0% rice bran powder recorded the highest score of brightness, whereas the group of 20% rice bran powder scored lowest in terms of brightness. While there were significant differences between the control and experiment groups, no significant differences were found among the addition groups. Hardness also showed a tendency to significantly increase. The sensory evaluation results indicate that the group of 0% rice bran powder recorded the highest overall preference score at 5.00 and that the group of 20% rice bran powder had the lowest overall preference score at 2.87. The results also suggest that 10% rice bran powder sponge cake could be helpful in improving physical quality.

This experiment was conducted to select suitable cultivars and evaluate growth characteristics to get basic information for sprouting peanut. On sprouting peanut, it showed a rapid increase in trans-resveratrol content that has effects on anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, blood-sugar-lowering and other beneficial cardiovascular in mouse. For this experiment, characteristics of peanut sprouts were tested in 37 cultivars grown for 7 days at $26^{\circ}C$ temperature. There were a lots of variations in the growth characteristics among cultivars as followers : The range of 100 grain weight was 56 to 142 g, hypocotyl length was 4.3 cm to 5.8 cm, diameter of hypocotyl was 5.0 to 8.0 mm, epicotyl length was 0.8 cm to 4.6 cm, seedling ratio per seed number was 84% to 100%, weight per seedling was 4.9 g to 8.4 g, the rate of hypocotyl cleavage was 0% to 46%, the content of trans-resveratrol was $22.5\;{\mu}g/g$ to $88.2\;{\mu}g/g$ and sprout yield was 360% to 820%. The selection points considered were high sprout yield, high seedling rate, high resveratrol content, low brownish cotyledon, no hypocotyl cleavage, and fat hypocotyl etc. The best cultivar selected was 'Jokwang' that showed 7.8 mm diameter, clean cotyledon color, 100% seedling rate, 0% hypocotyl cleavage, $63.3\;{\mu}g/g$ resveratrol, and 820% sprouting yield. This cultivar was expected to be of use as a new food and nutraceutical material. Relationship between growth characteristics showed that root length had significant positive correlations with epicotyl length, resveratrol content and sprouting yield but negative correlations with hypocotyl diameter and cleavage. Hundred grain weight showed negative correlations with resveratrol content, seedling rate and sprouting yield but positively correlated with curved hypocotyl rate and hypocotyl cleavage positively. This result showed small grain seed will be more appropriate for sprouting peanut.

This study was conducted to evaluate the feeding value of ascidian tunic shell the effects of its dietary supplementation on laying performance, egg-yolk pigmentation, egg-shell strength and egg taurine content. A total of 168 brown layers at the age of 29wks in commercial cage were fed for 4 wks with 7 different diets containing ascidian tunic shel1(AST) at varying levels of 0$\sim$5% Dm or 0% AST with 100ppm carophyll red. No differences were found in egg production and weight among the treatments indicating that ascidian tunic shell did not adversely affect the laying performances. Adding the ascidian tunic shell to the diets increased egg-yolk pigmentation compared to the control and resulted in simillar or better effect on egg-yolk pigmentation compared to 100ppm carophyll red. The data suggest that ascidian tunic shell may be used as feed ingredients in layer diet enrichment of egg-yolk pigmentation in the place of carophyll red(chemical pigment). Specific gravity and breaking strength of egg shell were significantly increased by the adding ascidian tunic shell to the diet, suggesting that ascidian tunic shell may be used as feed ingredients for increasing egg shell strength. Also taurine content of egg was significantly increased with increasing supplementation of ascidian tunic shell to the diet(p<0.05). Therefore, ascidian tunic shell may be used as feed ingredients in laying hen diet to improve egg quality such as egg-yolk pigmentation, egg-shell strength and egg taurine enrichment.

This study was carried out to determine the effect of storage condition, such as temperature and relative humidity (RH), on the change of sensory properties and free fatty acid composition of pre-packed Hanwoo loin (Musculus longissimus) until $21^{st}$ day of storage. The Hanwoo loin was sliced in $1.0{\pm}0.2cm$ thickness and each of the sliced pieces was packed in a foamed polystyrene tray with linear low-density polyethylene (LLD-PE) film to simulate the pre-packed Hanwoo loin sold in retail market, then stored in home-style refrigerator (Con; $5^{\circ}C$, 17%RH), and temperature and RH controled chambers (T1; $5^{\circ}C$, 55%RH, T2; $5^{\circ}C$, 85%RH, and T3; $-1^{\circ}C$, 99%RH), respectively. The sensory characteristics of pre-packed Hanwoo loin during storage in different conditions were measured on raw or after cooking. After 21 days of storage, the loin stored in T3 showed significantly high color and acceptability scores ($7.46{\pm}1.07$, $7.06{\pm}1.36$, respectively) on raw loin, and flavor and acceptability scores ($7.16{\pm}0.90$, $6.90{\pm}0.92$, respectively) on cooked loin than those of others (p<0.05). The concentration of 12 fatty acids of pre-packed Hanwoo loin during storage in different conditions were analysed. The concentration of oleic acid (C18:1, $39.92{\pm}3.22%$), palmitic acid (C16:0, $28.20{\pm}2.42%$), and stearic acid (C18:0, $12.59{\pm}2.79%$) was high in Hanwoo loin on $1^{st}$ day of storage. The concentration of palmitic acid of Hanwoo loin stored in T2 was increased significantly after $4^{th}$ day of storage (p<0.05), and the concentration of myristic acid(C14:0) of Hanwoo loin stored in treated chamber (T1 to T3) was significantly higher than Con after $14^{th}$ day of storage (p<0.05). The concentration of linolenic acid (C18:3) of Hanwoo loin was decreased significantly after $4^{th}$ day of storage in all tested storage conditions (p<0.05). However, there was no significant or consistent change in the concentration of oleic acid (C18:1) during storage period in every Hanwoo loin stored in tested conditions. Although, the concentration of total monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) was decreased in Con and T2 (p<0.05), there was no consistent change in the monounsaturated fatty acids to saturated fatty acids ratio (MUFA/SFA) during storage period (p>0.05). From those results, it was considered that storage condition affects on the sensory acceptability and fatty acid composition of pre-packed Hanwoo loin as storage period was increased.

Medical insurance and health care delivery system enabled Korean people to get the necessary medical service, but it caused increased needs for medical service, and resulted in the occurence of some problems such as a lack of manpower and medical facilities. In order to solve these problems, many countries, which already had medical insurance system had developed home care system and it has been regarded effective both in reducing costs and in increasing the rates of turnover of bed. Recently, Korea has included home nursing care in its health care delivery system, and some models of the hospital based home nursing care had been tried and its effects had been evaluated. So, author tried to run a home nursing care for the Cesarean section mothers and evaluate Its effects both in the mother's health and costs. This study was designed as a Quasi-experimental study. Subjects were thirty mothers who got Cesarean section operation in hospital in Seoul. Experimental group consisted of 15 volunteers, and control group were selected by means of matching technique. Data were gathered from February 1st to March 26th by two assistants who were trained by author. Experimental group were discharged on the 4th day after their operation, and got nursing care and assessment about their home three times on the 5th, 6th, and 7th day. Control group stayed in the hospital until 7th day as usual and were checked on the same day as above mentioned To evaluate the state of physiological recovery, vital signs, H.O.F, presence of edema in the legs, bathing, appetite, sleep, presence of pain or discomfort in the breasts, amount of lochia, color of lochia, defecation urination. To compare incidence of complication in experimental group with that in control group, specific assessment was done such variables as smell of lochia, presence of inflammation of operation wound, dizziness, and presence of immobilization in the extremities. The activities of daily living were checked Satisfaction of nursing were checked To calculate costs, author asked subjects to specify expenditure including hospital charge, traffic enpenses, and food expenses. The results were as fellows. 1. On effectiveness of home nursing careThere were n significant differences between experimental and control group in incidence of abnormal symptoms and any complication. The number of taking a bath [POD #5 P=0.001, #6 P=0.0003, #7 P=0.001] and the degree of appetite [POD #5 P=0.03, #6 P=0.02, #7 P=0.013] were significantly higher in experimental group than in control group. Contrary to author's expectation, the degree of the activities of daily living in experimental group was not higher than that of control group. All of the experimental group said they were satisfied with the home nursing care. 2. Cost analysis 1) Hospital charge of experimental group was lower than that of control group. ［P=0.009］ By taking home nursing care, average period of hospitalization was shortened to 3.1 days, and family members could save 22.8 hours. Total amount of money saved by early discharge was 3,443,093 Won. It is estimated that total amount of money saved by early discharge in a year will be 40,398,956 Won. 2) Home nursing care charge of 15 mothers was 1,781,633 Won. It is estimated that total amount of money Saved by it in a year Will be 20,904,493 Won. It was lower altogether than hospital charge of the three days which is 5th, 6th, 7th day of operation. The average cost of single home visit was calculated 10,940 Won. It took 87 minutes per round and it costed 1,017.3 Won. The average hour of home care was 39.0 minutes. 3) It is expected that early discharge can bring forth the increase of hospital income. On the condition that the rate of running bed is 100%, the expected increase of hospital income will be 202,374, 026 Won in a year. Suggestions for further study and nursing practice are as follows : 1. For the welfare of patients and the increased rates of running bed, home nursing care system should be included in the hospital nursing care system. 2. Studies to test effect of home nursing care on the patients with other diseases are needed. 3. Establishment of law on the practice of home nursing care is strongly recommended.
