The purposes of this study were to estimate the microbial and physicochemical quality of vegetable dishes without heat treatment such as sengchae, a traditional Korean vegetable dish, and to suggest a safer method of preparation. Platycodon sengchae and vegetable salad were monitored from the ingredient to final product before serving while storing at different temperature (4, 10$^{\circ}C$) and period (1, 2, 4, 7 days) at foodservice establishments. The results showed that the storage temperature pH, Aw, moisture content, and microbial loads are the important factors affecting the quality of vegetable dishes without heat treatment, and a thorough hygienic management from the purchase to the preparation of the dishes is needed to secure the quality of prepared foods in the foodservice establishments.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of after-treatment equipment and thermal storage devices for a heat recovery and combustor-type $CO_2$ generator fuelled a kerosene. To reduce the levels of harmful exhaust gases produced by a $CO_2$ generator, a catalyzed particulate filter(CPF) has been selected as an after-treatment device, by considering back pressure and exhaust gas temperature. The CO conversions of the catalyzed SiC filter(full plugging) were 92%, and the concentration of PM(particulate matter) was near ambient. A thermal recovery device was used to recover 13% of the heat energy from the exhaust gas through heat exchangers installed on the exhaust line of the $CO_2$ generator. 69% of the moisture within the exhaust gases was removed by condensing water, in order to minimize excessive humidity within the greenhouse.

Rice and waxy rice starches were adjusted to 27% of moisture and heated at $100^{\circ}C$ for 16hours, respectively. After the treatment, their gelatinization properties were investigated. The initial gelatinization temperature, obtained by transmittance and amylogram, of Akkibare and Taebaek starches were $60{\sim}65^{\circ}C$ but those of waxy rice and the U.S.A. rice starches were $55{\sim}60^{\circ}C$ and $70{\sim}75^{\circ}C$, respectively. The gelatinization temperatures of heat-moisture treated starches were higher than those of the untreated starches. Viscosities at each temperature and the highest viscosity reduced by some degrees after the treatment. DSC thermograms of all starches showed single endotherm and the gelatinization enthalpies were $2.26{\sim}2.63\;cal/g$. The gelatinization enthalpy tended to decrease after the treatment. Transmittance and viscosity by alkali showed in this order; Akkibare and Taebaek starches>waxy starch>the U.S.A. rice starch. The heat-moisture treated starches increased viscosities in every starch. Transmittance in alkali solution of Akkibare, Taebaek and waxy rice starches decreased. but that of the U.S.A. rice search increased.

As a study for the verification of heat treated wood according to ISPM No. 15, the spectroscopic characteristics of the heat treated wood surface were analyzed. Various functional groups were observed on the IR spectrum, but it was difficult to find any particular difference between wood species, heat treatment time and storage period. HBI (hydrogen-bonding intensity) shows the change of the heat treated wood according to the storage time, but the change of wood with the heat treatment time was hard to be observed. On the PCA score plot, however, it was possible to sort the wood according to the heat treatment time of 60 minutes or 90 minutes in the species. The standards for classification of heat-treated wood in PCA were aromatic rings in lignin and C-H bending in cellulose, and these components were able to classify heat-treated wood by ISPM No. 15.

The required energy for the heat treatment of pine log was evaluated in this study. A proper heat treatment of pine log infected by pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus) can prevent spreading of the infection by pinewood nematode and make the infected pinewood valuable again. The FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations) heat treatment standard for various types of infected wood for which a heat treatment of the core part of the wood is necessary is 30 minutes at $56^{\circ}C$, taking into account the international standards for phytosanitary measures (ISPM No. 15). In this study, the energy consumption during the heat treatment was separated into two kinds of energy, initial energy for heating kiln drier and to reach set point temperature and relative humidity and the required energy supplementing heat loss. The initial required energy per unit time is greater than that during the treatment. The energy consumption per unit time varied little during the heat treatment. As a result, the set point relative humidity with set dry bulb temperature and density of wood dependent on moisture content are very important factors to change energy consumption in the experiment. The heat treatment at higher temperature and higher humidity levels requires more energy consumption but less treatment time. It is expected that a more effective energy program could be planed for the heat treatment of pine log through this study.

Nylon 6 staple ultramicrofiber(UMF, 0.074) and regular staple fiber (Regular, 2.0d) were annealed at In, 130, 160 and $180^\circ{C}$ under tension free for 10 min and U min. The treated fibers were dyed with Acid Red 18 and Blue n3. They were adjusted at PH 5.0 of dye bath in buffer solution of $CH_3COOH/CH_3/COONa(0.1mo1/1)$. Liquor ratio was kept at 1000:1. Dyeing rate of UMF annealed at $100^\circ{C}$ was decreased, but was increased for regular nylon. Also dye equilibrium of UMF at $100^\circ{C}$ was increased for Acid Red 18, but was decreased for Acid Blue 83. The intensities of X-ray diffraction peaks of UMF increased with increasing annealing temperature. Also the crystallinity of heat-sotted fibers by DSC thermogram was well agreed with the tendency of density Amino end group, moisture regain and water absorbency were decreased with increasing annealing temperature.

Dried tobacco leaf debris infected with tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) was subjected to heat treatment (6$0^{\circ}C$~10$0^{\circ}C$) with or without addition of moisture and to room temperature for natural decay to examine the periods of time required for the inactivation of PMV in the inoculum source. Wet conditions (60% moisture content of the debris) for heat treatment were more efficient than dry conditions to inactivate the virus at 7$0^{\circ}C$~10$0^{\circ}C$, and which decrease of temperature, the time needed for the viral inactivation increased greatly. At 6$0^{\circ}C$ and 7$0^{\circ}C$, the temperaturein a compost heap during the actively decomposing period, it takes about 15 days or more for the complete inactivation of the virus. However, considering the decrease of the viral infectivity during the decomposition, a shorter period of time will be required to inactivate TMV in the conditions mentioned above, suggesting that a well decomposed organic manure containing tobacco leaf debris may not have infective TMV and may not provide a potential inoculum source.

Chinese-style pork jerky is a typical intermediate moisture meat product obtained by curing, drying and roasting pork samples. The chemical, physical and microbiological characteristics of pork jerky were evaluated throughout processing. The moisture content varied from 72.5% to 23.4 or 19.6% and aw varied form 0.97 to 0.74 or 0.72 in accordance with processing steps. The pork jerky roasted at $200^{\circ}C$ had higher shear value than roasted at $150^{\circ}C$ because the moisture content and aw of the former sample was lower than the later sample. The nitrite losses during whole processing steps amount to nearly 50%. The TBA value of pork jerky varied from 0.34 to 9.25 or 9.83 mg of malonaldehyde depended on processing steps. The VBN value of pork jerky ranging from 0.25 to 22.4 or 23.5 mg/kg depended upon processing steps. The ATPase activity of myofibrillar proteins during processing steps were partly or entirely denatured by the heat-drying or heat-roasting treatment. A gradual decrease in microorganism count during processing of pork jerky was also observed.

Rice bran, treated with heat or ${\gamma}-radiation$, was stored at $-15^{\circ}C,\;4^{\circ}C,\;37^{\circ}C$ and room temperature to determine its lipid stability by monitoring the changes in moisture, free fatty acids (FFA) and peroxide value (POV). Initial moisture content of rice bran was 14% and decreased with time. The higher storage temperature, the more moisture loss. The moisture content became 9% after 80 days of storage at $37^{\circ}C$. The initial FFA of rice bran was 2.5% which increased with time except the samples stored at $-15^{\circ}C$. The higher storage temperature, the more FFA was produced, by 9 times the initial FAA after 80 days of storage at $37^{\circ}C$. POV increased about twice the initial value after 80 days of storage at $-15^{\circ}C,\;4^{\circ}C$, and room temperature, and 5 times at $37^{\circ}C$. Rice bran was treated with heat at $70^{\circ}C,\;90^{\circ}C\;or\;105^{\circ}C$ and stored for 2 weeks at $30^{\circ}C$: The higher the heat treatment temperature and the longer the heat treatment time, the more moisture was lost. The not show any significant changes. Irradiation at $1{\sim}30\;kGy$ and subsequent storage for 4 weeks at $5^{\circ}C\;or\;30^{\circ}C$ caused negligible changes in moisture content. The FFA contents of rice bran irradiated up to 10 kGy were almost similar to these of nonirradiated one when measured just after irradiation. The samples irradiated at 30 kGy were 1.5 times higher in the FFA contents than nonirradiated ones. But there was little influence of irradiation doses on the FFA contents during storage. Irradiation caused the increase in POV of rice bran. resulting in 4 times increase in case of 30 kGy irradiated sample. During the storage, however, the POV of irradiated rice bran decreased significantly.

In this study, green Larix kaempferi lumber was heat-treated by using superheated steam (SHS) at a pilot scale and then various physico-mechanical properties of the heat-treated wood were evaluated and compared with the properties of conventional hot air (HA) heat-treated wood. Decay resistance of brown rot fungi and compressive strength parallel to the grain of the SHS heat-treated wood without occurrence of drying check from green lumber were increased. On the other hand, density, equilibrium moisture content, shrinkage, and bending strength of the SHS heat-treated wood were lower than those of the conventional HA heat-treated wood. Because heat transfer and thermal hydrolysis of SHS heat treatment was accelerated by a large amount of water, the effect of SHS heat treatment on the physico-mechanical properties was higher than that of HA heat treatment at the similar conditions of temperature and time. From the results of this study, because green lumber can be heat-treated without occurrence of cracks or checks by using SHS and similar heat treatment effect on the physico-mechanical properties of wood can be produced despite a low temperature or short time of heat treatment, it is expected that heat time and energy consumption could be reduced by using SHS.
