Growth curves of seven strains of lactic acid bacteria isolated from Kimchi were graphed during cultivation at 1$0^{\circ}C$, 2$0^{\circ}C$, 3$0^{\circ}C$ and 4$0^{\circ}C$ in filter sterilized Chinese cabbage juice, and then lag time and generation time at each conditions were calcurated. At 3$0^{\circ}C$, the lag time of Leu. mesenteroides subsp. dextranicum was 168 min(minutes), Leu. mesenteroides subsp. mesenteroides 204 min, Leu. paramesenteroides 612 min, Lac. bavaricus 258 min, Lac. homohiochii 228 min, Lac. plantarum 270 min and Lac. brevis 264 min. And at this temperature, the generation times of Leu. mesenteroides subsp. dextranicum and Leu. mesenteroides subsp. mesenteroides were all 36 min, Lac. bavaricus 33 min, Lac. homohiochii 39 min, Lac. plantarum 66 min, Lac. brevis 42 min and Leu. paramesenteroides 162 min. As cultural temperature was lowed from 3$0^{\circ}C$ to 1$0^{\circ}C$, all strains showed remarkable prolongations in lag time and in generation time, and the prolongations were most conspicuous in Lac. plantarum. At 1$0^{\circ}C$, 2$0^{\circ}C$ and 3$0^{\circ}C$, both the lag time and the generation time of Leu. mesenteroides subsp. mesenteroides were shorter than those of Lac. plantarum. But at 4$0^{\circ}C$, this pattern was completely inverted. As a whole lower temperatures were more favorable for the growth of Leu. mesenteroides subsp. mesenteroides, while higher temperatures were for Lac. plantarum.

This study was comparised physical properties of waxy black rice and waxy rice. In case of physical properties of kernels, weight, length, length/width ratio and volume of waxy black rice were higher than those of waxy rice but width and density were very similar. Moisture gain of kernels of waxy black rices was increased continuously to 40 min. at various soaking temperatures ($20{\sim}50^{\circ}C$) and the water uptake rate constants ($k_0$) of waxy black rices during storage at $20{\sim}50^{\circ}C$ were also increased. The water uptake rate constant ($k_0$) of waxy rice ($0.058\;min^{-1/2}$) was the more fast than that of waxy black rice ($0.033\;min^{-1/2}$) during storage at $4^{\circ}C$. Also hardness reduced rate constant($-k_0$) of waxy rice ($0.048\;min^{-1}$) were the more fast than that of waxy black rice ($0.022\;min^{-1}$) about two times.

Background: Endocrine disruptors are exogenous substance, interfere with the endocrine system, and disrupt hormonal functions. However, the effect of endocrine disruptors in different species has not yet been elucidated. Therefore, we investigated the possible effects of $17{\beta}$-estradiol (E2), progesterone (P4), genistein (GEN) and 4-tert-octylphenol (OP), on capacitation and the acrosome reaction in bovine, mouse, and porcine spermatozoa. In this in vitro trial, spermatozoa were incubated with $0.001-100{\mu}M$ of each chemical either 15 or 30 min and then assessed capacitation status using chlortetracycline staining. Results: E2 significantly increased capacitation and the acrosome reaction after 30 min, while the acrosome reaction after 15 min incubation in mouse spermatozoa. Simultaneously, capacitation and the acrosome reaction were induced after 15 and 30 min incubation in porcine spermatozoa, respectively. Capacitation was increased in porcine spermatozoa after 15 min incubation at the lowest concentration, while the acrosome reaction was increased in mouse spermatozoa after 30 min (P < 0.05). E2 significantly increased the acrosome reaction in porcine spermatozoa, but only at the highest concentration examined (P < 0.05). P4 significantly increased the acrosome reaction in bovine and mouse spermatozoa treated for 15 min (P < 0.05). The same treatment significantly increased capacitation in porcine spermatozoa (P < 0.05). P4 significantly increased capacitation in mouse spermatozoa treated for 30 min (P < 0.05). GEN significantly increased the acrosome reaction in porcine spermatozoa treated for 15 and 30 min and in mouse spermatozoa treated for 30 min (P < 0.05). OP significantly increased the acrosome reaction in mouse spermatozoa after 15 min (P < 0.05). Besides, when spermatozoa were incubated for 30 min, capacitation and the acrosome reaction were higher than 15 min incubation in E2 or GEN. Furthermore, the responsiveness of bovine, mouse and porcine spermatozoa to each chemical differed. Conclusions: In conclusion, all chemicals studied effectively increased capacitation and the acrosome reaction in bovine, mouse, and porcine spermatozoa. Also we found that both E2 and P4 were more potent than environmental estrogens in altering sperm function. Porcine and mouse spermatozoa were more responsive than bovine spermatozoa.

The purpose of this study was to observe the changes of acidity of resin cement(Time Line), glass ionomer cement(GC Fugi Lining LC), zinc phosphate cement(Fleck's zinc cement). zinc oxide eugenol cement(Sultan,Chemists.) in vivo and in vitro. Class I cavities with 3mm depth were prepared on the occlusal surfaces of 20 recently extracted human Mn. molar teeth and 20 human Mn. 3rd molar teeth in oral cavity. The prepared cavities were divided into 4 groups of each 5 teeth using the above 4 cavity liners. Each cement was mixed in accordance with manufacturer's direction at the room temperature of $23^{\circ}{\pm}5^{\circ}C$ and filled into the cavity in a width of 1 mm. The microelectrode of pH meter was inserted into the prepared cavity which was filled with mixed cement, and the acidity of cement was measured for 3 days from the beginning of cement mix in vitro and in vivo. The measured acidity was then statistically analyzed by ANOVA. The results were as follows. 1. In vitro, the pH of zinc oxide eugenol cement was statistically lower than that of the three other groups at 2min, 4min, 6min, 8min, 10min, 12min, 18min, 20min. (p<0.05). 2. The pH of zinc oxide eugenol cement in vivo was statistically higher than that in vitro at 16min,16min, 20min(p<0.05). 3. The pH of zinc phosphate cement in vivo was statistically higher than that in vitro at 4min, 20min(p<0.05). 4. In vitro and in vivo, there was no significant difference in the pH between the resin cement and the glass ionomer cement(p>0.05). 5. The initial acidity was not high, but almost neutral in all kinds of the cements.

This paper deals with robust control problems of linear systems with matched nonlinear uncertainties. In order to handle the uncertainties, a Lyapunov min-max control approach can usually be adopted. By the way, the min-max control input is required to be switched and provokes chattering phenomena which limit the practical implementation. The magnitude of switching control input which cause chattering is dependent on the size of uncertainties. In this paper, it is shown that the magnitude of the min-max control input can be made small using a well-known disturbance observer technique and only considers the disturbance observing errors. The chattering phenomena can be reduced as small as possible by selecting a high diturbance observer gain. The simulations show that the min-max control with a disturbance observer can reduce chattering phenomena much smaller and guarantee much better robust performance rather than the one without a disturbance observer.

The local preconditioning method has both robust convergence and accurate solutions by using local flow properties for parameters in the preconditioning matrix. Preconditioning methods have been very effective to low speed inviscid flows. In the viscous and turbulent flows, deterioration of convergence should be overcame on the high aspect ratio grids to get better convergence and accuracy. In the present study, the local time stepping and min-CFL/max-VNN definitions are applied to compare the results and we propose the method that switches between two methods. The min-CFL definition is applied for inviscid flow problems and the min-CFL/max-VNN definition is implemented to viscous and turbulent flow problems.

In order to know the effect of atuoclaving on the heavy metal removal using chitosan, lead removal capacities and removal rates by various chitosans in aqueous solution were compared according to the various autoclaving time. The lead removal efficiencies and removal rates by the autoclaved chitosan were found to be on the order of 15 min(98％) ＞ 10 min(95％) ＞ 30 min(83％) ＞ 5 min(53％) ＞ 60 min(47％) ＞ 0 min(22％) chitosan. The molecular weight of chitosan was decreased by the increase of autoclaving time. Therefore, the heavy metal removal capacity was not well correlated to the molecular weight. Langmuir isotherm was well fitted to experimental results of equilibrium adsorption on chitosan. In order to examine the process of lead removal by the autoclaved chitosan, TEMs, SEMs and FT-IR analyses were used. The surface of autoclaved chitosan was much more porous and the lead removal was mainly occurred on the surface of chitosan. The structure of autoclaved chitosan was same as that of controlled chitosan.

This study was conducted to investigate the changes in physico-chemical characteristics of beef tenderloin steak by oven roasting at different internal temperatures. 1. Cooking time required for the internal temperatures of 60, 70 and $80^{\circ}$ of steaks were 15min, 23min and 28min, respectively, and standing time of cooked beef steaks were 10.5min at $60^{\circ}$, 9.4min at $70^{\circ}$ and 8.5min at $80^{\circ}$, respectively. 2. Total losses and evaporation losses were larges in cooked steaks at $60^{\circ}$ and $70^{\circ}$ than that of $80^{\circ}$ cooking. Total losses were 14.5% by cooking at $60^{\circ}$, 23.3% at $0^{\circ}$ and 26.6% at $80^{\circ}$ respectively. As internal temperature of meat was increased, moisture and fats content was decreased and protein content of meat was not changed.

Let ($M^3$, $g$) be a 3-dimensional closed Sasakian spin manifold. Let $S_{min}$ denote the minimum of the scalar curvature of ($M^3$, $g$). Let ${\lambda}^+_1$ > 0 be the first positive eigenvalue of the Dirac operator of ($M^3$, $g$). We proved in [13] that if ${\lambda}^+_1$ belongs to the interval ${\lambda}^+_1{\in}({\frac{1}{2}},\;{\frac{5}{2}})$, then ${\lambda}^+_1$ satisfies ${\lambda}^+_1{\geq}{\frac{S_{min}+6}{8}}$. In this paper, we remove the restriction "if ${\lambda}^+_1$ belongs to the interval ${\lambda}^+_1{\in}({\frac{1}{2}},\;{\frac{5}{2}})$" and prove $${\lambda}^+_1{\geq}\;\{\frac{S_{min}+6}{8}\;for\;-\frac{3}{2}&lt;S_{min}{\leq}30, \\{\frac{1+\sqrt{2S_{min}}+4}{2}}\;for\;S_{min}{\geq}30$$.
