  • To assess South Korean commercial tomato cultivars, regular and cherry tomato cultivars were grown in the greenhouse and evaluated for color attributes, titratable acidity, pH, total soluble solids, carotenoids (lycopene and ${\beta}$-carotene), total phenols, flavonoids, vitamin C, and antioxidant activity. Significant differences (p < 0.05 using Duncan's multiple range test (DMRT)) were observed in the levels of most phytochemicals, quality parameters, and antioxidant activity among the twenty South Korean tomato cultivars tested. Lycopene and ${\beta}$-carotene contents varied significantly (p < 0.05 using DMRT), from $0.95mg{\cdot}100g^{-1}$ to $5.12mg{\cdot}100g^{-1}$ and $0.65mg{\cdot}100g^{-1}$ to $3.56mg{\cdot}100g^{-1}$ of fresh weight, respectively. ${\beta}$-carotene contents exhibited the highest genetic variation (59.2%), followed by naringenin (52.8%) and other phytochemicals. Most of the cherry tomato cultivars had statistically higher levels (p < 0.05 using DMRT) of carotenoids, phenols, flavonoids, vitamin C, and antioxidant activity compared to the regular tomato varieties, suggesting their higher nutritional value. Lycopene content was highest in the cultivars YoYo, Jicored, Titi-Chal, TY-Endorphin, and Rubyking. Cultivars Rubyking, TY-Endorphin, and Titi-Chal also showed relatively higher antioxidant activities in three assays: 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), and ferric ion reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assays. All the antioxidants, except luteolin, were positively correlated with antioxidant activities; the highest correlation was observed between total phenol and antioxidant activities, followed by the correlation between rutin and vitamin C. Cultivars identified to have superior nutritional status would be useful in tomato breeding programs to further improve quality and health benefits of tomatoes for the fresh and processed markets.

  • Development for extraction method of sea tangle was investigated with addition of sucrose, NaCl, EDTA-2Na, SHMP, and hydrolysis with commercial polysaccharide hydrolyzing enzymes. The total solids and protein yields were significantly increased by enzymatic hydrolysis or addition of NaCl and EDTA-2Na during boiling. The extract prepared by enzymatic hydrolysis followed by 2 hrs of boiling in 1.5% NaCl solution was significantly improved in solids and protein yield from 24.1% and 13.9% of 2 hrs of water boiling to 44.6% and 32.2%, respectively. The combined method increased the amino-nitrogen content but reduced the turbidity and viscosity. Extracts with a high intensity of total and seaweed-like taste as revealed by sensory evalution were obtained by combined method.

  • The studies of isolation and physiological characteristics of mesophilic or thermophilic bacteria from thermophilic oxic process (TOP) treating Chinese restaurant wastes were conducted. Chinese restaurant wastes were consist of moisture; 75.8%, solids; 24.2% and ash; 0.49%. The volatile solid was about 99% of total dry solids. In wastes used in this experiment, there was content of crude protein; 4.47%, crude lipid; 3.56%, free sugar, 0.4% , crude starch; 10.34% and crude fiber 3.14%, respectively. And then it has about 4,970 kcal/kg-dry solid of Chinese restaurant wastes. From TOP treating the chinese restaurant wastes, 37 strains of mesophilic or thermophilic bacteria were primarily isolated using medium used for the isolation and among them 6 strains of thermophilic and 7 strains of mesophilic bacteria were selected by testing the activities of amylase, cellulase, protease and lipase. TB-1, TB-9 as thermophilic bacteria and MB-15-1, 15-2, MB23 as mesophilic bacteria having strong enzyme activity were selected among isolated strains. All selected strains reduced nitrate to nitrite and they utilized glucose, manose, manitol, and maltose as carbon source. From these MB15-2 was identified as Bacillus cereus, TB1, Bacillus licheniformis and TB9; Bacillus schlegelii.

  • Animal carcasses have always been and continue to be a major burden in animal production. The main aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of thermophilic anaerobic digestion for animal carcasses. A batch test using ground meat and organ as the model substrate showed that animal carcasses arehighly biodegradable at thermophilic anaerobic condition. The volatile solids (VS) destruction and $CH_4$ yieldranged from 52.7 to 58.5% and from 220 to 243 mL/g VS, respectively, at initial substrate VS in the range of 1.5~7.7%. However, high ammonia concentration inhibited continuous operation at substrate VS above 2.5%. As ammonia is formed during the degradation of proteineous organic materials, the major constituent of animal carcasses, the only way to reduce the ammonia concentration would be dilution. Co-digestion with other waste stream without high nitrogen content is recommended as an economically feasible approach for thermophilic digestion of animal carcass.

  • In this study, we evaluated the changes of fruit quality indices during fruit development and ripening in Korean new pear cultivar 'Wonhwang' and 'Whasan' to determine appropriate harvest time and to enhance the marketability. The fruit of each cultivar harvested from 100 days after full bloom (DAFB) to 135 and 150 DAFB in 'Wonhwang' and 'Whasan', respectively. The fruit growth of both cultivars showed a typical single sigmoidal pattern. Flesh firmness of two cultivars decreased continuously with fruit development and ripening, reaching a final level of about 2.6 kgF at harvest stage. The starch content of fruit sap was much higher in the fruits of early development stage than the later stage of fruit ripening. In 'Wonhwang' pears, the starch level decreased coincide with fruit ripening (130 DAFB), while that of 'Whasan' decreased from very early stage of fruit development (120 DAFB), 30 days before full ripe. 'Whasan' pear showed much lower acidity level of about 0.13% during fruit development and ripening period compared with that of 'Wonhwang'. Therefore, the ratio of soluble solids to total acidity (TSS/acid) increased gradually with fruit development and ripening, reaching a final level of 80 and 98 in 'Wonhwang' and 'Whasan', respectively. There were no climateric rise of fruit respiration during fruit ripening periods in two oriental pear cultivar. The changes of skin color difference including hunter vale $a^*$ which means loss of green color occurred only after onset of ripening in two cultivars.

  • This research examined the treatment efficiency and methane production rate in treating slurry-type swine waste using UASB (upflow anaerobic sludge blanket) reactor. The UASB reactor was operated at an organics volumetric loading rate (VLR) of $2.6-15.7kgCOD/m^3/day$. A stepwise increase of the VLR resulted in a temporary deterioration in the COD removal rate in UASB reactor but recovered quickly. The COD removal rate were 65-70% for VLR up to $5 kgCOD/m^3/day$. When organics VLR was $10kgCOD/m^3/day$, the COD removal rate decreased sharply and there was loss of 17.537g of the seeding biomass due to sludge washout. This result indicated that the UASB system cannot be adapted to more than $10kgCOD/m^3/day$ of VLR. As the organic load increased from 2.6 to $15.7kgCOD/m^3/d$, the biogas production rate varied from 3.2 to 10.8 L/d and the methane conversion rate of the organic matter varied from 0.30 to $0.23m^3CH_4/kg\;COD_{removed}$. The methane content showed the range of 70.1-81.5% during the experimental period. The volatile solids (VS) removal efficiency was similar at the low VLR (< $5 kgCOD/m^3/day$), but it decreased sharply at the high VLR (> $5 kgCOD/m^3/day$). The VS reduction rate was, moreover, large those of COD. The result shows that hydraulic retention time above 2 days is essential in case of treating wastewater containing 1% of solids.

  • The Ni-base superalloy GTD111 DS is used in the first stage blade of high power land-based gas turbines. Advanced repair technologies of the blade have been introduced to the gas turbine industry over recent years. The effect of the filler metal powder on Transient Liquid Phase bonding phenomenon and tensile mechanical properties was investigated on the GTD111 DS superalloy. At the filler metal powder N series, the base metal powders fully melted at the initial time and a large amount of the base metal near the bonded interlayer was dissolved by liquid inter metal. Liquid filler metal powder was eliminated by isothermal solidification which was controlled by the diffusion of B into the base metal. The solids in the bonded interlayer grew from the base metal near the bonded interlayer inward the insert metal during the isothermal solidification. The bond strength of N series filler metal powder was over 1000 MPa. and ${\gamma}'$ phase size of N series TLP bonded region was similar with base metal by influence of Ti, Al elements. At the insert metal powder M series, the Si element fluidity of the filler metal was good but microstructure irregularity on bonded region because of excessive Si element. Nuclear of solids formed not only from the base metal near the bonded interlayer but also from the remained filler metal powder in the bonded interlayer. When the isothermal solidification was finished, the content of the elements in the boned interlayer was approximately equal to that of the base metal. But boride and silicide formed in the base metal near the bonded interlayer. And these boride decreased with the increasing of holding time. The bond strength of M series filler metal powder was about 400 MPa.

  • Surface color, water extract color and soluble solids of the roasted barley resulted from the various roasting conditions were determined to establish the optimum roasting conditions. The correlation coefficients between the surface color of the roasted barley and its ground was in the range from 0.957 to 0.994, and which showed the internal color being well represented that of surface of the roasted grain. The degree of roasting was determined maim by the roasting temperature, rather than by the total heat energy input during roasting. The maximum yield of the water soluble solids was 68% and obtained from the barley roasted at $232^{\circ}C$ for 25 minutes. The readings of Y-value of the roasted whole barley was a good index to judge and control the degree of roasting.

  • To produce mulberry-leaf tea abundant in ${\gamma}$-aminobutyric acid (GABA), mulberry leaves were subjected to two distinct anaerobic conditions ($N_2$ and vacuum) for 12 h before the manufacturing process. Subsequently, changes in the GABA content as well as that of other components were measured. In anaerobically treated mulberry leaves, GABA content markedly increased by 436-472% compared with the control, while the glutamic acid content decreased. However, few changes were observed in the contents of the general components (moisture, carbohydrate, lipid, protein, and ash) and water-soluble solids. Free sugar, catechin, and total phenol content decreased after anaerobic treatment. However, the sensory test scores were not different between the control and anaerobically-treated samples. Consequently, tea products, manufactured post nitrogen gas or vacuum treatment of leaves after harvest, showed functional properties without sensory loss.
