The ultrastructure in the beef muscle of the electro-magnetic resonance and air blast freezing during the frozen storage, and the changes in the quality characteristics after thawing were evaluated. The size of ice crystal was small and evenly formed in the initial freezing period, and it showed that the size was increased as the storage period was elapsed (p<0.05). The beef stored by the electro-magnetic resonance freezing showed the size of ice crystal with a lower rate of increase than the air blast freezing during the frozen storage. The thawing loss of beef stored by the electro-magnetic resonance freezing was significantly lower than the air blast freezing during frozen storage (p<0.05), and it showed that the thawing loss of the round was higher than the loin. Water holding capacity decreased as the storage period became longer while the electro-magnetic resonance freezing was higher than the air blast on 8 month (p<0.05). As a result of sensory evaluation, the beef stored by the electro-magnetic resonance freezing did not show the difference until 4 months, and it showed higher acceptability in comparison with the beef stored by the air blast freezing. Thus, it is considered that the freezing method has an effect on the change in the ultrastructure and quality characteristics of the beef.

The published works on steam curing effect have been generally concentrated on the subject, "compressive strength". However a practical test for durable steam curing concrete products has not been performed in domestic. In this study, the maximum temperature of steam is considered as a major variable to investigate the freezing and thawing resistance of the steam curing concrete. All of the specimen were cured for 24 hours which included presteaming 4 hour. Finally we found that the most effective curing condition is the case of one-day and 14-day specimens after the 24 hours steam curing at $74^{\cire}C$ degree curing temperature. It is also found that the durability of one-day samples are much weaker than those of 14-day samples. Consequently, we can conclude that the samples that produced immediately after a steam curing are more possible to deteriorate from the freezing and thawing environment.vironment.

본 연구에서는 초음파 속도 측정 실험을 이용하여 동결 융해 작용을 받는 시멘트 모르타르의 동탄성 계수 및 공극 구조 변화를 평가하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 초음파 속도는 동결융해 시험 중 매 30cycle마다 시편을 꺼낸 후 측정하였으며, MIP를 이용한 porosity 분석도 수행하였다. 초음파 속도 측정 결과를 이용하여 동탄성계수를 계산한 결과 300cycle 이후 약 13%가 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. porosity는 초기에 대비해서 약 30%가량 증가하였으며, 초음파 속도 측정으로부터 계산된 porosity는 MIP를 통해 측정한 porosity와 약 5~30% 차이를 보였지만 유사한 증가 경향을 보이는 것으로 확인되었다. 이를 통해 초음파 속도 측정 결과를 이용하여 시멘트 모르타르의 porosity 변화를 예측하는 것은 타당한 방법으로 볼 수 있으며, 이를 이용하여 확산계수 등 내구성 평가 지수를 예측할 수 있는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

In the present study, we examined the effect of straw size on spermatozoa motility, viability, acrosome integrity, mitochondrial membrane potential, and plasma membrane integrity after freezing-thawing. Hanwoo semen was collected from three bulls and diluted with an animal protein-free extender, divided into two groups, namely, 10 million spermatozoa in 0.25 mL and 20 million spermatozoa in 0.5 mL straw, and cryopreserved. In Experiment 1, the motility and motility parameters of the frozen-thawed spermatozoa were evaluated. After freezing-thawing, the spermatozoa motility parameters fast progressive, straight line velocity, and average path velocity were compared between the 0.25 mL straw and 0.5 mL straw groups. They were 35.2 ± 1.0 and 32.3 ± 0.7%, 34.6 ± 0.7 and 31.8 ± 0.5 μm/s, 51.4 ± 1.3 and 47.1 ± 1.1 μm/s, 0.25 mL straw and 0.5 mL straw groups, respectively. In Experiment 2, the viability, acrosome membrane integrity, and mitochondrial membrane potential of the frozen-thawed spermatozoa were assessed. After freezing-thawing, the percentages of spermatozoa with live, intact acrosomes and high mitochondrial membrane potential were compared between the in 0.25 mL straw and 0.5 mL straw groups. They were 48.0 ± 2.6% and 35.6 ± 2.8% between the 0.25 mL straw and 0.5 mL straw groups. In Experiment 3, the plasma membrane integrity of frozen-thawed spermatozoa was compared. After freezing-thawing, the plasma membrane integrity was higher for the in 0.25 mL straw group than the 0.5 mL straw group. They were 62.0 ± 2.2 and 54.1 ± 1.3% between the 0.25 mL straw and 0.5 mL straw groups. In conclusion, our results suggest that freezing semen in 0.25 mL straw improves the relative motility, viability, and acrosomal, mitochondrial membrane potential, and plasma membrane integrity of Hanwoo bull spermatozoa.

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the morphological aspects of testicular tissue before and after freezing-thawing by light and transmission electron microscopy. Methods: Tissue biopsies were carried out on mouse testis for freezing. Samples in medium containing 20% glycerol were frozen by computer-controlled freezing program. The effect of freezing-thawing on the structural change of testicular tissues were examined by light and electron microscopy. Results: The freezing-thawing procedure had no significant effect on tubular diameter. However, it caused folding of the lamina propria, and notable damage to Sertoli cells, spermatogonia and spermatocytes. The cells were detached, desquamated from the basal lamina and had increased vacuolization. Round spermatids, elongated spermatids and spermatozoa were less affected, and most of them maintained their normal structure. Conclusions: The structure of spermatogonia, spermatocyte and basal compartments in seminiferous epithelium was significantly altered by freezing-thawing procedure of mouse testicular tissues. Thus, we need to develop a more reliable method for the cryopreservation of testicular tissues.
