Recently, food industries are increasingly interested in launching ethnic foods in the global market, but communicating sensory information to target consumers has been complicated due to the ambiguity and complexity of Korean sensory descriptors. This study was conducted to elicit various multidimensional sensory descriptors and their definitions using focus group interviews (FGI). Two consumer groups, consisting of 10 panelists in their 20s and 10 panelists in their 30-40s respectively, participated in the FGI. A total of 14 commonly used multidimensional sensory descriptors, including gamchilmat (감칠맛), gaeun (개운), goso (고소), gusu (구수), kkal-kkeum (깔끔), neu-kki (느끼), dambaek (담백), birin (비린), siwon (시원), sikeum (시큼), ssapssarae (쌉싸래), eolkeun (얼큰), jjapjoreum (짭조름), and kalkal (칼칼), were elicited. Their definitions showed that these descriptors not only were constructed using several sensory elements but also contained hedonic connotations. Descriptors such as gaeun, siwon, and kkal-kkeum were more closely associated with overall sensory impressions, including aftersensations and post-ingestive effects rather than sensory concepts. As individuals tend to weigh different elements to construct the concept for each multidimensional descriptor, further studies are required to identify elements consisting of these descriptors to develop better test methods and gain a clearer understanding of the sensory profiles of Korean foods.

The species composition and distribution of catches by dredge gear in the Yeongil Bay, Korea were investigated on aseasonal basis from February to November, 2015. Total catches consisted of 44 species and 35 families. They were 13 species of fish, 10 species of crustacea, 5 species of echinodermata, 5 species of gastropoda, 4 species of cephalopoda and 3 species of bivalvia. Major catch species was shellfish and had seasonal variations in catch. In spring and winter, the catch of ark shell (Scapharca broughtonii) was increased. Adversely, the catch of admas venus clam (Callithaca adamsi) increased in sunmmer and autumn. Species diversity indices was high as the value of 1.99 in spring, and low to the value of 0.34 in summer. In addition, multi dimentional scaling (MDS) indices also was high in spring as the value of 1.99. In summer, the index was low as the value of 0.34. Similarity analysis based on species data was transformed by fourth root. With the result of cluster analysis and MDS analysis, species was divided into two groups. The first group as Group A consists of winter and spring species and another was Group B made of species in summer and winter.

To investigate the characteristic of age and growth, samples of Megangulus venulosus were collected monthly by dredge in the coastal waters of Gangneung, Korea from January to December 2014. The age of M. venulosus was estimated by measuring the ring radius on the shell. Because the relationship between shell lengths and ring radii in each ring group was regressed well, each ring was considered as an annual growth ring. Based on the monthly variation of the marginal index (MI) of the shell length, it is assumed that the ring of this species was formed once a year during September and November. From the parameters calculated using the average length when the year ring was formed, the estimated von Bertalanffy growth equation were SLt=236.3(1–e–0.061(t+0.184)) in age.

Species composition and bycatch rate of the catches by dredge with bycatch reduction device to reduce bycatch were estimated around Yeongil Bay, Korea at June, 2015. Total catches were collected 31 species as Chordata 10 species, mollusca 8 species, arthropoda 6 species, echinodermata 5 species, sipunculida 1 species, annelida 1 species during the experiment at the Yeongil Bay. The dominant species were Scapharca broughtonii, Callithaca adamsi, and Atrina pectinata and they reached 79.9% of the total catch. The catch rate of Scapharca broughtonii and Callithaca adamsi was 69.6% and 10.4% respectively. The rate of bycatch was 20.1%, consisted with Echinodemata 13.0%, Chordata 3.6%. The catch of ordinary dredge was 27 species 1,307 number 85,052g and that of dredge with escapement device was 21 species 1,690 number 91,648g. In conclusion, the dredge gear with bycatch reduction device has higher catch rate of target species and lower bycatch rate to non–target species than ordinary one.

본 연구는 새만금 간척지에서 비닐하우스 작물 재배 가능성 검토를 위해 녹색꽃양배추를 대상으로 일일 관수량을 달리하여 관수량에 따른 토양 염농도 및 생육특성 등을 조사하여 관수량에 의한 재염화 억제효과를 알아보고자 수행하였다. 수확기의 표토의 평균 토양 EC 는 1.5 및 3.0mm·day-1 처리구에서 각각 10.9 및 11.5dS·m-1 였으며 6.0mm·day-1 처리구에서 5.1dS·m-1로 1.5 및 3.0mm·day-1 처리구보다 52~56% 낮게 나타나 점적관수 량에 따른 제염효과를 확인할 수 있었다. 화뢰의 무게는 6.0mm·day-1 처리구에서 주당 371.3g으로 1.5 및 3.0mm·day-1 처리구의 60.9g 및 129.1g보다 높은 값을 나타냈다. 50%의 수량감소를 보이는 토양 EC는 7.6dS·m-1였으며 점적관수에 의한 토양 제염효과는 6.0mm·day-1 처리에서 30~40cm 깊이까지 나타났다. 따라서 새만금간척지에서 녹색꽃양배추 재배시 점적관수에 의한 토양 재염화 억제를 위해서는 6.0mm·day-1 수준의 관수량으로 총 422mm의 물량이 필요할 것으로 예측된다. 그러나 염류의 이동은 토양 이화학적 특성 및 계절적 요인 등 여러 가지 환경요인에 영향을 받으므로 간척지 비닐하우스에서 점적관수에 따른 염류의 이동특성에 관한 추가적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

매년 증가하고 있는 풍해에 대한 대책으로서의 내풍설계는 필수적이다. 사과나무 지주시스템의 내풍설계를 위해서는 우선적으로 사과나무에 작용하는 풍하중을 파악해야 하고, 이를 위해서는 사과나무의 항력계수 산정이 필요하다. 기존 항력계수 산정 방법에서 발생할 수 있는 실험적 오차 등의 문제점을 보완하고자, 하중 측정 장치의 제작을 통한 풍하중 직접 측정 및 이를 통한 항력계수의 역추정 과정을 수행하였다. 풍속이 증가할수록 항력계수는 감소하며 점차 수렴하는 경향을 나타냈으며, 풍속 30m/s 일 때, 전면적 기준 약 0.176, 순면적 기준 약 0.356 의 값을 갖는 것으로 나타났다.

This study attempted to find an efficient method for the preparation of high-purity galactooligosaccharides (HP-GOS) using β-galactosidase and yeast fermentation. GOS prepared using Lactozym 3000L showed the greatest enhancement in total GOS of the six β-galatosidases tested. GOS alone achieved 51% conversion of initial lactose. GOS production was enhanced by fermentation with commercial yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae); its concentration reached 71% after 36h fermentation with 8% yeast. Component sugar analysis with HPLC indicated that HP-GOS fermented with S. cerevisiae showed significantly increased levels of 4’/6’-galactosyllactose and total GOS as well as a significantly decreased glucose level. HP-GOS facilitated the growth of Lactobacillus sp. (L. acidophilus and L. casei) and Bifidobacterium sp. (B. longum and B. bifidum). In sum, high-purity GOS has been successfully produced through both an enzymatic process and yeast fermentation. GOS encourages the growth of bacteria such as Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium that may be beneficial to human gastrointestinal health.

현재까지 우리나라 벼 재배에서 sulfonylurea계 제초제들에대한 저항성 잡초로 보고된 잡초들은 간척지 벼 재배지에서물옥잠이 처음으로 확인된 다음 일년생 잡초 10초종, 다년생잡초 4초종이 발생하여 모두 14종이다. 그리고 2009년Acetolactate Synthase 및 Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase 억제제들에 대한 강피가 저항성으로 처음 보고되었다. 저항성 잡초 발생 초창기에는 sulfonylurea계 제초제들에 대한 저항성초종들인 광엽 및 방동사니과 잡초들 중에서 하나의 저항성 잡초 초종이 논에 주로 우점하였으나 현재에는 한 논에 여러 가지 잡초 초종들이 함께 복합적으로 우점하고 있다. 저항성 잡초 생체중 50%를 억제하는 약제 농도(GR50)는 저항성 잡초가 감수성 잡초 보다 훨씬 높았다. Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase 및 AcetolactateSynthase 억제제들에 대한 저항성 강피도 GR50은 감수성 강피 보다 훨씬 높게 나타났다. 우리나라 벼 재배지에서제초제 저항성 잡초들의 우점 원인은 잡초 생태적 및 제초제작용기작 측면으로 구분할 수 있다. 잡초 생태적 측면에서는종자생산량과 생육이 빠른 잡초들이 저항성으로 변이한다. 제초제 작용기작 측면에서 저항성잡초 발생의 주원인은 약효가길고 선택성이 매우 좋은 sulfonylurea계 제초제들의 높은 선호 때문이다. 국내 논에서 sulfonylurea계 제초제들의 사용 비율은 약 96%이다. 벼 직파재배지에서 Acetolactate Synthase 및Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase 억제제들의 계속적 사용은 저항성강피 발생을 가능하게 하였다. Sulfonylurea계 제초제들에 대한 저항성 물옥잠의 acetolactate synthase 활성을 50% 억제하는 제초제 농도인 I50은 감수성 물옥잠에 비해 훨씬 높았는데이것은 흡수 및 이행에 의한 차이보다는 Acetolactate Synthasegene의 돌연변이(mutation) 때문인 것으로 나타났다. 즉Acetolactate Synthase gene amino acid 197번째 proline이serine로 치환되었기 때문이다. 저항성 잡초 관리를 위하여 벤조비싸이크론(benzobicyclon) 등은 물달개비 및 올챙이고랭이를 함께 관리하는 것이 가능하다. 또한 Acetolactate Synthase및 Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase 억제제들에 대한 저항성 강피의관리는 메페나세트(mefenacet) 등이 2.5엽기까지 가능하다. 그리고 우리나라 벼 재배지에서 제초제 저항성잡초들을 방제하는데 적지 않은 난관들이 있다. 첫째, 지금까지 저항성 발생제초제들인 Acetolactate Synthase 및 Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase억제제들의 판매량이 늘고 있기 때문에 저항성 잡초들은 꾸준히 발생하고 번질 것이다. 둘째, 미국 등의 선진국들과 같은연구인력 및 기관이 많이 부족하다.

Experiments for catch and cluster analysis on the catch by gillnet for the Pacific herring were conducted using traditional nylon net (PA) and developing biodegradable net (PBS) with different monofilaments of #2 (=0.23 mm) and #3 (=0.28 mm) in diameter between 2011 and 2012, and of #2, #2.5 and #3 in 2013 in the eastern coastal waters of Samcheok, Korea. The total catch during the experiments was 3,337kg in weight and 16,757 individuals in number. Though the catch ratio of the Pacific herring in 2011 and 2012 was 97.4% and 98.7%, respectively, that of the Pacific herring in 2013 was 73.6% as the biggest and followed by goldeye rockfish (8.6%), black edged sculpin (8.4%), atka mackerel (7.2%) and Alaska cod (1.0%). The ANOVA analysis on the total catch in relation to net material showed that there was not statistically significant difference at the 5% level between nylon net (PA) and biodegradable net (PBS) (p=0.91). With the cluster analysis on the catch in relation to net material (PA, PBS) and twine thick (#2, #3), it showed the influence of net material on the catch was greater than that of twine diameter in this experiment. From the test of homogeneity on the catch by the gillnet with PA and PBS in which several species were caught in 2013, there was not statistically significant homogeneity in relation to net material (p<0.005). That meant the traditional gillnet of nylon (PA) was more efficient than the biodegradable (PBS) gillnet to catch several kinds of fish, however the PBS gillnet was better than the PA gillnet to catch the target Pacific herring.

Porous metallic glass compact (PMGC) are developed by electro-discharge sintering (EDS) process of gas atomized Zr41.2Ti13.8Cu12.5Ni10Be22.5 metallic glass powder under of 0.2 kJ generated by a 450 μF capacitor being charged to 0.94 kV. Functional iron-oxides are formed and growth on the surface of PMGCs via hydrothermal synthesis. It is carried out at 150oC for 48hr with distilled water of 100 mL containing Fe ions of 0.18 g/L. Consequently, two types of iron oxides with different morphology which are disc-shaped Fe2O3 and needle-shaped Fe3O4 are successfully formed on the surface of the PMGCs. This finding suggests that PMGC witih hydrothermal technique can be attractive for the practical technology as a new area of structural and functional materials. And they provide a promising road map for using the metallic glasses as a potential functional application.

본 연구는 한국 뮤지컬의 시장현황을 살펴보고, 변화양상에 따른 특징을 추출해 내어 발전방안을 연구하고자 한다. 그동안 ‘전욕극장의 건립’, ‘지자체 공연장 활성화’ 등 하드웨어의 비약적인 발전으로 뮤지컬 시장은 2014년 기준 연간 3천억 원 이상의 규모로 성장하게 되었다. 이러한 시장변화 가운데 해외 시장 진출이 두각을 나타내면서 한국 뮤지컬 시장의 범위 확대에 대한 분석을 필요로 하는 시점에 이르렀다. 연구방법으로는 2008년부터 2013년까지 6년간 전체 뮤지컬 시장의 매출 규모를 추정하여 분석하였으며, 특히 가장 많은 변화를 보여 준 2011년부터 2013년까지 3년간의 뮤지컬 시장의 주요 이슈와 성장을 이끈 변화요인을 중점적으로 분석하였다. 시장현황의 정량적 조사에 대한 비교 분석으로 공연 전문가 그룹 10인의 포커스 인터뷰를 통한 정성적 조사를 병행해 한국 뮤지컬 시장현황에 대한 진단, 시장 확대를 위한 해외진출의 제언, 향후 뮤지컬 시장의 발전과 전망 등에 대해 집중적으로 듣고 세부 항목별로 분류해 보았다. 본 논문은 2013년 이후 성장세가 둔화되고 있는 한국 뮤지컬 시장의 한계를 인지하고 그 대안을 제시하고자 하며, 해외로의 시장 확대와 더불어 해외 유입 관객까지도 끌어들일 수 있다면 뮤지컬 산업화는 가속화할 것으로 내다본다.

(PDDA/SiO2) thin films that consisted of positively charged poly (diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA) and negatively charged SiO2 nanoparticles were fabricated on a glass substrate by an applying voltage layer-by-layer (LBL) self-assembly method. In this study, the microstructure and optical properties of the (PDDA/SiO2) thin films coated on glass substrate were measured as a function of the applied voltage on the Pt electrodes. When 1.0 V was applied to a Pt electrode in a PDDA and SiO2 solution, the thickness of the (PDDA/SiO2)10 thin film increased from 79 nm to 166 nm. The surface roughness also increased from 15.21 nm to 33.25 nm because the adsorption volume of the oppositely charged PDDA and SiO2 solution increased. Especially, when the voltage was applied to the Pt electrode in the SiO2 solution, the thickness increase of the (PDDA/SiO2) thin film was larger than that obtained when using the PDDA solution. The refractive index of the fabricated (PDDA/SiO2) thin film was ca. n = 1.31~1.32. The transmittance of the glass substrate coated by (PDDA/SiO2)6 thin film with a thickness of 106 nm increased from ca. 91.37 to 95.74% in the visible range.

The cholesterol lowering effect of vegetables fermented by Lactobacillus plantarum HY7712 was evaluated in rats fed high fat/high cholesterol diet. SD Rats were randomly divided into three groups, then fed a normal diet (ND), a highfat high-cholesterol diet (HFCD), or HFCD and vegetables fermented by HY7712 (VFLAB) for 5 weeks, and the biomarkers in the blood, liver, and feces of rats were measured. Antioxidant status such as SOD, CAT, GSH/GSSG, and MDA was significantly deteriorated in HFCD compared with ND (p<0.01) but was improved in VFLAB to the level of ND. In addition, the level of MDA in VFLAB was significantly decreased in comparison with HFCD (p<0.05). Total cholesterol, LDLcholesterol, and atherogenic index (AI) were significantly increased in HFCD, but significantly decreased in VFLAB (p<0.05). In addition, administration of a HFCD diet increased the fecal bile acid in rats and the concentration of fecal bile acid was higher in VFLAB than in HFCD. In conclusion, the vegetables fermented by L. plantarum HY7712 improved antioxidant status and hypercholesterolemia induced by HFCD diet, which may be due to the synergic effect of lactic acid bacteria and fermented vegetables.

The dredge gear is dragged along the bottom of the sea to catch targeted edible bottom dwelling species. Species composition and ecological index of the catches of dredge were estimated around Gangneung coastal fishing ground by dredge with different mesh size and tooth space from July to December 2013. Eight different types of dredge including four different tooth space (24.7 mm, 29.9 mm, 34.9 mm, 40.1 mm) and four different mesh size(15.5 mm, 32.7 mm, 51.1 mm, 060.0 mm) were used in the experiment. During the experiment, total catches were collected 31 species as sipunculida 1 species, mollusca 13 species, annelida 3 species, arthropoda 8 species, echinodermata 4 species and others 2 species. The dominant genus were mollusca and echinodermata while the dominant species were Megangulus venulosus, Pseudocardium sachalinensis, Schaphechinus brevis. The richness index was ranged 1.29-1.72, evenness index was 0.6-0.65 and diversity index was 1.65-1.83 according to the tooth space and mesh size of dredge. Richness index, diversity index were high at tooth space 34.9 mm dredge and ecological index showed decreasing tendency with the increasing of mesh size of dredge. Cluster and MDS analysis, based on a Bray-Curtis and similarity matrix of fourth root transformed data of number of species and wet weight, showed division into four different groups as four different tooth space (Group A), four different mesh size Group B (51.1 mm, 60.0 mm), Group C (32.7 mm) and Group D (15.5 mm).

Experiment was set up to analyze bycatch and discards situation including snow crap Chionoecetes opilio of whelk trap. Four types of trap were used: drum type trap with PE net; drum type trap with PBS net; cylinder type trap with PE net; and cylinder type net with PBS net. Three funnels were attached in drum type trap and two funnels were used in cylinder type trap. A fleet of traps was consisted with one hundred traps. 25 traps of each type were set on a line in repeated sequence. Field experiments were conducted with 6 fishing operations in the Uljin waters, East Sea in July 2014. Catch of target whelks were 173,261 g and catch rate was 48.7% of total catch, while bycatch were 182,571 g, 51.3% of tatal catch. The catch rate of bycatch was 2.6% higher than that of target catch. Bycatch weight of snow crap was the highest as 142,987 g and formed about 40.2% of total catch, followed giant octopus, Enteroctopus dofleini, 31,762 g (8.9%). Bycatch rate of cylinder type trap was 2.3 times higher than that of drum type trap. Discard rate (discard/(discard+landing)) was 43.6%. Discard rate was the highest at cylinder type trap with PBS net as 63.1%, followed cylinder type trap with PE net as 47.9%, drum type trap with PE net as 33.4%, the lowest at drum type trap with PBS net as 22.1%.
