The aim of this study was to investigate the physicochemical characteristics of hand drip, Aeropress, espresso, Moka, Mukka, and Brikka coffee brews. Espresso showed higher antioxidant activity, total solids, caffeine, chlorogenic acid, total phenolic compounds, and trigonelline concentrations compared to the other coffee brews studied. In terms of extraction efficiency, Brikka and Mukka showed higher total solids, as well as caffeine and chlorogenic acid contents, whereas drip coffee brew showed higher trigonelline content than other coffee brews. Meanwhile, principle component analysis (PCA) was conducted based on the aroma profile by e-nose. Samples were gathered into distinct groups that represented their brewing methods. Despite the similarity in brewing principle between Moka and other high-temperature brewing methods (i.e., Mukka and Brikka), the location of Moka coffee brew was closer to that of espresso in PCA, which was consistent with the PCA result conducted by e-tongue.

본 연구에서는 rheometer를 이용하여 식용유 함량을 75, 80, 85%로 달리하여 제조한 3종류의 마요네즈의 정상유동특성과, 진폭을 작게 한 전단변형하에서의 동적유동특성을 광범위한 전단속도와 frequency 영역에서 측정하였다. 이들 결과로부터 정상유동특성의 전단속도 의존성 및 동적점탄성의 frequency 의존성을 조사하였다. 마요네즈는 항복응력과 shear-thinning 및 thixotropy성을 지니고 있었으며 이들 성질은 식용유 함량이 증가할수록 강화되었다. 점탄성의 측정결과 광범위한 frequency 영역에서 G'값은 G"값보다 매우 크게 나타났으며 G'과 G"의 frequency 의존성을 나타내는 척도인 n'과 n"은 각각 0.10, 0.20이었으며 G"이 G'보다 frequency 의존성이 더 큰 것으로 나타났다. 한편 75, 80, 85% 마요네즈의 부피평균직경은 각각 3.89 μm, 3.04 μm, 3.15 μm로 식용유 함량이 75%인 경우가 가장 크게 나타났다.

In order to develop a protective carrier scaffolder for the external usage of medical and hygienic materials, three essential protective elements existing in nature, i.e., algin, cellulose, and calcium phosphate apatite, were investigated. The algin is a main skeletal component of sea weeds, the cellulose is of vegetables, and the calcium phosphate apatite is of vertebral animals. In the present study we select the agarose which is a derivative from algin, the cellulose fiber obtained from skin of sea squirt, calcium oxide purified from shell powder, and tricalcium phosphate apatite purchased commercially. Consequently, the agarose-cellulose hybrid was made by the hydrogen bonds intermediating the calcium phosphate apatite between agarose and cellulose molecules. As the calcium phosphate apatite is formed by the addition of calcium hydroxide into tricalcium phosphate solution, we used calcium oxide to accelerate the hybridization between the agarose and calcium phosphate apatite and also between the cellulose and calcium phosphate apatite. In the phase contrast microscopic observation the agarose-cellulose hybrid showed more compact matrix structure than the mixture of agarose and cellulose. The agarose-cellulose hybrid showed increased storage modulus but decreased loss modulus in Rheometer test compared to those of the other materials tested in this study, representing that the agarose-cellulose hybrid has the highest elasticity among them and similar water capacity to agarose. The agarose-cellulose hybrid showed the strongest antimicrobial effect in bacteria killing assay than the other materials, and also it showed a potent blood clotting effect but no immunological hypersensitivity on the human skin. From the above results we presumed that the nobel material, agarose-cellulose hybrid, is a compact scaffolding matrix which has proper elasticity, high capacity to hold substrates, and antimicrobial and blood clotting property potent enough to carry the bio-medical and hygienic materials for external treatment safely.

This study was conducted to develop a new RBC process available for the effective removal of organic matters and nitrogen in sewage. The RBC process for the oxidation organic compounds and nitrification was designed to occur at the 1st-stage and next-stage RBC respectively. Then nitrified water was recycled to the denitrifying RBC located at the lower part of the 1st-stage RBC. Some results were summarized as follows. 1. The loading limitation was represented as $60g{\cdot}COD/gm^2/day$ in experiment of simultaneous removal of organic matter and nitrogen. The maxmum COD % removal was 85% at the load $35g{\cdot}COD/m^2/day$. 2. The $NO_3-N$ % removal was approximately 80% at the load $60g{\cdot}COD/m^2/day$ and the maximum $NO_3-N$ remaval rate was $3.9g{\cdot}COD/m^2/day$ and the overall C/N ratio of 11.0 as required to achive 80% of $NO_3-N$% removal. 3.$NO_3-N$ removal rate was rapidly decreased above the load $7g{\cdot}NH_4{^+}-N/m^2/day$ and the maximum $NO_3-N$ removal rate was $3.7g{\cdot}NO_3-N/m^2/day$. 4. Irrespective of the recycle ratio, the COD % removal at the system of 2-stage RBC unit was nearly constant as 89% while the maximum one in the 1st-stage unit was 77% in the case of 50% recycle. 5. The maximum COD % removal in the 3-stage RBC system was 93% while 1st-stage one being 80%, under the $NH_4{^+}-N$ load of $7.4g/m^2{\cdot}d$. Also maximum percentage of nitrification and denitrification was 69% and 41% respectively, under the same $NH_4{^+}-N$ load.

브라질 몬테알레그레 커피와 에티오피아 시다모 커피를 약배전, 중배전, 강배전으로 볶아 색도, 총 페놀 함량, 카페인, 클로로겐산 함량을 분석하였다. 총 페놀함량은 3.06~3.31%, 카페인 함량은 0.81~1.11%로 배전과정 중 큰 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 브라질 커피의 클로로겐산 함량은 2.15%(약배전)에서 1.32%(강배전)으로 감소하였고, 에티오피아 커피의 클로로겐산 함량은 2.27%(약배전)에서 0.49%로 감소하였다. DPPH와 ABTS 라디칼 소거능은 약배전 시료와 강배전 시료간에 큰 차이를 나타내지 않았다. GC를 기초로 한 전자코를 이용하여 배전 정도에 따른 향기패턴을 분석한 결과 향기패턴의 차이를 잘 구분할 수 있었다. 전자혀 분석기술을 이용하여 각기 달리 배전한 시료를 분석한 결과 신맛과 단맛은 배전이 진행됨에 따라 감소했다. 전자코와 전자혀 분석기술은 배전과정 중에 향기와 맛을 평가하는데 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
