  • Streptococcus (Strep.) agalactiae is one of the major pathogens of bovine mastitis and is the main cause of subclinical infection. This study attempted to develop a rapid PCR diagnosis procedure using milk samples collected on filter paper disks. Chromatographic filter paper was employed as the preservation media and kept at room temperature for one to four weeks. The revival rate of Strep. agalactiae kept on dried filter paper disks was affected by the pretreatment preservation time. The revival test suggested that not all the bacteria in artificially contaminated milk samples on the filter paper disks could be recovered. After that, a PCR based on the 16-23S intergenic spacer region of Strep agalactiae was performed. The results distinguished the strep. agalactiae from major pathogens of bovine mastitis at a $2{\times}10^2$ colony forming units (CFU)/ml level, which showed similar sensitivity to the results from liquid milk samples. The results also showed that milk samples collected on filter paper disks could be kept at room temperature for one to four weeks with little negative effect on sensitivity and specificity. The field test showed that the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity was 96.15% and 98.60%, respectively. In conclusion, the protocol will provide a rapid and economic procedure for the detection of bovine mastitis.

  • The purpose of this paper is to estimate economic value of multi-functionality roles including landscape and so on, which grassland in Jeju possesses, using Dichotomous Choice Contingent Valuation Method (DC-CVM). Grassland is life cultural heritance of regional residents in Jeju. It has functions like development of favorable landscapes, maintenance of cultural heritage, and recreation/relaxation. Expectation from regional visitors shows that the existence and inheritance value of grassland is higher than we expected. According to the research that we had done from the people that had agreed to contribute grassland. moreover the public commercial value of grassland was not only $397{\sim}419$ billion won but also it will increase an economic gain in every year in Jeju. Therefore, preserving grassland that has multi-functional roles and values can lead to huge economic value in the future in Jeju. Moreover, farm households which are located in the grassland conservation area would be supported $15{\sim}31$ billion won in every year for grassland conservation but it is only $4{\sim}8%$ of the economic value of grassland i.e. $3,971{\sim}4190$ billion won. Thus, grassland preservation policy and plan can raise green-tour commercial value of Jeju area as a long-term inside measurement. Those will have to be propelled continuously.

  • Oriental melon has been increased in production amount, but its processed food was not made in spite of the fact that shelf-life of the fresh fruit is short. This study was carried out to develop a dried product with no use sulfur treatment. Fresh melons were peeled, cut into 6 pieces, and soaked to the following pretreatments soaking in sugar syrup(SS), sodium chloride(SC), ascorbic acid(AA) and sodium polyphosphate(SP). After preatreatments the melon pieces were dried by hot air drying at 5$0^{\circ}C$ for 9 and 12 hours, and the dried melons were air blown at $25^{\circ}C$ for 1 day. The dried samples were evaluated for moisture content, texture, rotor, and sensory quality. The moisture content of dried melons soaked in SS and SC were lower than those that were soaked in AA and SP after hot air drying. The melons dried for 12 hours were high in hardness, gumminess, chewness and adhesiveness and excellent in sensory evaluation compared to 9 hours. The "L" value of SS was higher and the "a" value was lower in Hunter color. And SS treatment inhibited browning of the dried melon and improved sensory characteristics in color, flavor, texture and taste. Sucrose concentration had no significant effect on color, hardness and sensory score in banal product. The combination of SS with SP represented a highly effective antibrowning treatment for the dried melon and the product was kept in good color for 3 months at room temperature.at room temperature.

  • Nowadays, the constructions of dams are being issued by the public due to the preservation and protection of nature considered more important than development. These social phenomenon can not be evitable due to arguing the both attitudes, preservation and development of nature. However, There are possibilities to make an agreement with the compromise between the two sides. The common goals of the attitudes are concerning human beings and their life quality. In this atmosphere, the exhibition hall of dams is very important to lead the agreement of both groups because the spaces not only provide contents to compromise by showing positive factors of dams, but present condition of using water as natural resources. The purpose of this study is based on the effect of the applied media in an exhibition hall as presenting education and enlightenment factors. To examine the effect, this study categorizes the existing media by communication types firstly. Secondly, based on the categorization, existing media of each dam exhibition hall are analyzed by numerical way. Thirdly, the general characteristics of applied media are defined by integrating the spatial contents and media. The data from the study are effective to provide the basic data for following design works for the exhibition space.

  • The stowage effects of Satsuma mandarin(Citrus unshiu Marc. var. miyagawa) were investigated by selecting various pretreatmnents; non-tested, wax-coating, paper packaging, 0.02mm cryovac film packaging. Weight loss of film packaging was the lowest among that of others, but decay radio was increased highly at late stages of storage. Soluble solids, moisture content of peel and total sugar were maintained almost constant, but acid content, vitamin C and firmness were reduced gradually during storage at room temperature. For 100 days storage, losses from weight and decay of ton-treated, paper packaging, wax-coating and film packaging were 15.9%, 18.5%, 17.4% and 12.9%, respectively. Acid content was decreased loom 1.28% to 0.81∼0.91% after 100 days storage. Ethylene evolution was increased in a degree after 65 days storage, and the amount was increased repidly afer 115 days. it seemed to be derived from decayed fruits and physiological activities. CO2 content of inner part of fruits was increased between 40∼100 days after storage. Optimum storage period of early variety of Satuma mandarin was regarded for 100days on the basis of appeareance and taste.
