The effects of salt solution and chlorella on the quality of canned oyster, Crassostrea gigas, were evaluated to obtain basic data regarding the processing of two canned oyster products. In canned oyster processing, the shucked oyster meat was steamed for 20 min and then drained. Then, each can (301-3) was filled with 90 g boiled oyster in 60 mL 1.5% salt solution for the control samples or 30 mL 1.5% salt solution and 30 mL chlorella culture medium for the experimental samples. All canned products were sealed using a vacuum seamer and then sterilized to Fo values of 6-12 min in a steam retort system at 118℃. The viable bacteria count, proximate composition, pH, salinity, yield, volatile basic nitrogen (VBN), amino-nitrogen, thiobarbituric acid (TBA), mineral, color value, free amino acid levels, hardness, and sensory evaluation of the two canned products were measured under various sterilization conditions. There were no significant differences in the physical or chemical factors and little difference in the overall acceptance of the control and experimental samples.

This study was carried out to establish rational methodologies for the use of pesticide formulations to be sprayed after water-dilution. Hardness and electric conductivity of six major river water and ground water sampled from 52 sites in major rice-growing areas across the country ranged from 5 to 324 ppm(av. 90 ppm) and from 0.038 to 1.078 dS/m(av. 0.265 dS/m), respectively, which are acceptable for diluent water of pesticides. The pH changes in pesticide spray solutions with time after preparation mainly depended on the pH of the water used for pesticide dilution. The surface tensions of pesticide spray solutions reduced slightly with time after preparation, irrespective of kinds of pesticide formulations. Suspensibility of WPs became worse with an increase in the hardness and salt concentrations of diluent water, even though the degree was negligible. Emulsion stability of ECs became worse with an increase in hardness and salt concentrations of diluent water. Degradation rates of the active ingredients of pesticide spray solutions 3 days after preparation were less than 5%, regardless of mixing or non-mixing of two or more pesticides. Consequently, the spray solutions of most pesticides were usable until two to three days after preparation unless physical properties deteriorated. The tank-mixing order of EC and WP formulations did not make any differences in all the physical properties of pesticide spray solutions. However, the proper order for the tank-mixing of compatible pesticides was WP, WG, SC, EC, and SL, because the order is easy to prepare the pesticide spray solutions. The efficacy of pesticide spray solutions on the respective target pathogens and insect pests of rice plants three days after preparation was recorded over 95% of that of 0 day, which was almost the same as that of the solutions applied punctually after preparation.

Kimchi was investigated with regard to the sensory properties depending on ethnic group and processing conditions, and to the relationship between its sensory attributes. Sensory panel scores of American in sourness, pungency and crunchiness were significantly higher than those of Korean. The opposite result was performed in sweetness. There were no significant differences between American and Korean in sensory properties of saltiness, hardness and toughness. Salt content in brine was significantly related to saltiness of kimchi at p<0.001. Sensory panel scores of saltiness in kimchi made with 10, 15 and 20% salt solution appeared to be 4.5, 5.8 and 7.1, respectively. Mean values of toughness were 5.7 at 3 days of aging and 4.5 at 10 days. There were no relationship among sensory properties between taste attributes and textural terms of kimchi.

This study investigated the effects of NaCl replacers (KCl, $CaSO_4$, and $MgSO_4$) on the quality and sensorial properties of pork patty. In the characteristics of spray-dried salt particles, KCl showed the largest particle size with low viscosity in solution. Meanwhile $CaSO_4$ treatment resulted in the smallest particle size and the highest viscosity (p<0.05). In comparison of the qualities of pork patties manufactured by varying level of Na replacers, $MgSO_4$ treatment exhibited low cooking loss comparing to control (p<0.05). Textural properties of KCl and $MgSO_4$ treatments showed similar pattern, i.e., low level of the replacers caused harder and less adhesive texture than those of control (p<0.05), whereas the hardness of these products was not different with control when the replacers were added more than 1.0%. The addition of $CaSO_4$ also manifested harder and less adhesive than control (p<0.05), but the textural properties of $CaSO_4$ treatment was not affected by level of Ca-salt. Eventually, sensorial properties indicated that KCl and $CaSO_4$ influenced negative effects on pork patties. In contrast, $MgSO_4$ showed better sensorial properties in juiciness intensity, tenderness intensity as well as overall acceptability than control, reflecting that $MgSO_4$ was an effective Na-replacer in meat product formulation.

The metallurgical and mechanical characteristics, toughness and corrosion resistance of dissimilar welds between super duplex stainless steel UNS S32750 and carbon steel ASTM A516Gr.70 have been evaluated. Three heat inputs of 21.12, 24.00, 26.88kJ/cm were employed to make joints of dissimilar metals with flux cored arc welding(FCAW). Based on microstructural examination, vermicular ferrite was formed in the first layer of weld at low heat input(21.12kJ/cm) and $Cr_{eq}/Ni_{eq}$ of 1.61 while acicular ferrite was formed in last layer of weld at high heat input(26.88kJ/cm) and $Cr_{eq}/Ni_{eq}$ of 1.72. Ferrite percentage in dissimilar welds was lowest in the first layer of weld regardless of heat inputs and it gradually increased in the second and third layers of weld. Heat affected zone showed higher hardness than the weld metal although reheated zone showed lower hardness than weld metal due to the formation of secondary austenite. Tensile strengths of dissimilar welds increased with heat input and there was 100MPa difference. The corrosion test by ferric chloride solution showed that carbon steel had poor corrosion resistance and pitting corrosion occurred in the first layer(root pass) of weld due to the presence of reheated zone where secondary austenite was formed. The salt spray test of carbon steel showed that the surface only corroded but the amount of weight loss was extremely low.

The impregnation of solid foods into the surrounding hypotonic or hypertonic solution was explored as a method to infuse NaCl in pork loin cube without altering its matrix. Mass transfer kinetics using a diffusive model as the mathematical model for moisture gain/loss and salt gain and the resulting textural properties were studied for the surrounding solutions of NaCl 2.5, 5.0, 10.0 and 15% (w/w). It was possible to access the effects of brine concentration on the direction of the resulting water flow, quantify water and salt transfer, and confirm tenderization effect by salt infusion. For brine concentrations up to 10% it was verified that meat samples gained water, while for processes with 15% concentration, pork loin cubes lost water. The effective diffusion coefficients of salt ranged from 2.43×10^-9 to 3.53×10^-9 m²/s, while for the values of water ranged from 1.22×10^-9 to 1.88×10^-9 m²/s. The diffusive model was able to represent well salt gain rates using a single parameter, i.e. an effective diffusion coefficient of salt through the meat. However, it was not possible to find a characteristic effective diffusion coefficient for water transfer. Within the range of experimental conditions studied, salt-impregnated samples by 5% (w/w) brine were shown with minimum hardness, chewiness and shear force.

The objective of this study was to compare effects of two different aging methods on physical, chemical, and microbial traits of pork loin: Dry and wet-aged meat was hung in the cooler at 8±1℃ and 85±2.1% humidity for 14 days, while wet-aged meat was immersed in a 3.5% salt solution of brine in vacuum pouches. On day 7, pH and moisture content were higher in dry-aged loins than in wet-aged, while drip loss and total plate counts (p<0.05) were lower on day 14. As aging continued, the pH and drip loss of dry-aged loins decreased, while their total plate counts and water holding capacity (WHC) increased (p<0.05). After 7 and 14 days of aging, redness in dry-aged loins was higher than that in wet -aged muscles (p<0.05). On day 14 of aging, hardness, chewiness, and adhesiveness were lower in dry-aged pork loin as compared to those in wet-aged samples (p<0.05). Consequently, the results suggested that dry and wet aging methods differently affects meat quality traits of pork loin.

Characteristics (salt concentration, weight loss, soluble solid content, moisture content, pH, textural properties) of kakdugi radish cube (2$\times$2$\times$2 cm) were evaluated during salting. Four different radish cultivars harvested in spring were immersed into 5, 10 or 15% brine (radish : brine - 1 : 2) at 15$^{\circ}C$ for 5 hr. The time required to reach the optimum salt concentration (3.0%) was different among cultivars; in 10% brine solution, 5 hr for ‘Bakbong’and ‘9621’, and 4 hr ‘Bagkwang’ and ‘Housebommu’, in 15% brine, 3 hr for ‘Bakbong’and ‘9621’, and 2 hr for ‘Bagkwang’and ‘Housebommu’. While the highest value of weight loss of kakdugi radish cube was observed with ‘Bagkwang’, the lowest, ‘Bakbong’. There was a decrease of pH of kakdugi radish during salting ; while ‘Bakbong’ showed little change in pH, ‘Bakbong’and ‘Housebommu’ showed large decrease of pH. Hardness and fracturability decreased during salting; the highest value of hardness was observed with ‘Bagkwang’, the lowest, ‘Bagkwang’. ‘Bakbong’ has the lowest moisture content, but the highest soluble solid content, while ‘Bagkwang’and ‘Housebommu’ have the highest moisture content, but the lowest soluble solid content. There was a similarity of characteristics of kakdugi radish cube between two cultivars, ‘Bagkwang’and ‘Housebommu’.

In this study, we investigated for natural rubber foam to replace petrochemical-based neoprene foam. Experiments were conducted on vulcanization system and 2-step foaming process of natural rubber. The vulcanization system were EV(Efficient Vulcanization Cure), Semi-EV(Semi-Efficient Vulcanization Cure) and CV(Conventional Vulcanization Cure). In the 2-step foaming process, first molding temperature was 140℃, times were 15, 20, 25, and 30minutes, and the second molding temperature was 160℃, the times 5, 10, 15, and 20minutes. The cure and viscosity characterization were evaluated by oscillating disc rheometer (ODR) and mooney viscosmeter. Various mechanical characteristics, including hardness, tensile strength, elongation at the point of rupture, and tear strength, were quantified. Subsequently, an assessment of alterations in these mechanical attributes was conducted post-immersion in a NaCl solution. In addition degree of volume change was measured after immersing the NR foam in NaCl solution and the low-temperature permanent compression set was evaluated at 4℃. And expansion ratio and shrinkage ratio of NR foam were evaluated for 28 days. As a result the EV vulcanization system showed the least change in physical properties before and after salt water immersion, and the lowest shrinkage ratio for 28 days. In addition it was confirmed that the 2-step foaming optimum condition differed depending on the appropriate vulcanization condition.
