This study assessed the utility of netted melon ‘Top Earl’s’ and cantaloupe melon ‘Alex’ as functional fruits by analysing their moisture content, vitreous sugar, folic acid, citric acid, and beta-carotene levels. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used to analyse the free sugar, folic acid, citric acid, and beta-carotene levels. The moisture content was not significantly different between ‘Top Earl’s’ and ‘Alex.’ The glucose, sucrose, and fructose contents were three, two, and one-and-a-half fold higher in ‘Alex’ than in ‘Top Earl’s.’ Moreover, citric acid was approximately three times higher in ‘Alex’ than that in Top Earl’s.’ However, the folic acid content was higher in ‘Top ‘Earl’s’ than ‘Alex,’ and the amount was 124 μg / 100 g FW and 112 μg / 100 g FW respectively. ‘Beta-carotene was undetectable in ‘Top Earl’s,’ whereas it was 1000 μg / 100 g FW in ‘Alex.’ β-carotene, a substance that is converted in the body into vitamin A and acts as an antioxidant, is an important component in healthy food. These results suggested that the cantaloupe melon ‘Alex’ has a higher free sugar content and functional ingredients, such as antioxidants, including citric acid and beta carotene, than the netted melon ‘Top Earl’s.’

국가기관과 기업은 정비사를 양성을 위한 고등학교부터 대학교, 기업 훈련센터 같은 교육기관을 만들어 숙련된 정비사로 훈련시키려고 많은 노력을 하고 있다. 하지만 교재를 이용한 이론교육과 현장에서 사용하지 않는 장비를 이용한 실습교육으로는 제대로 된 정비교육을 진행하지 못하며 특수 장비를 활용한 교육이나 위험한 상황을 가정한 정비의 교육은 매우 위험하여 영상이나 사진으로 교육을 진행하고 있었다. 최근에는 VR과 AR을 접목하여 단순정비에서 특수정비까지 시뮬레이션으로 안전하게 상황을 체험하고 문제를 해결하는 효과적인 교육 시뮬레이션이 연구되고 개발되는 사례가 많이 있다. 본 논문에서는 다누리 VR과 DisTi Engine, Remote AR을 비교분석하고, 유니티 엔진 기반으로 외부에서 전달된 정보를 기반으로 콘텐츠를 디바이스 화면에 최적화하여 출력하는 AR API 를 소개하고, VR 디바이스인 HTC Vive의 컨트롤러와 HMD의 정보를 실시간으로 수집하고 수집된 정보를 파일에 저장하는 VR API를 구현한 사례를 소개했다. 본 연구에서 구현한 API를 사용하면 콘텐츠를 제작할 때 도움을 줄 수 있을 것이다.

식품에서 발견되는 곤충이물은 제조단계와 유통, 소비단계 유입으로 대별된다. 식약처 발표에 따르면 2016년 5332건 이물신고 건수의 34.3% 인 1830건이 곤충이물이며 이중 조사, 판정 불가 56%, 제조단계 6.5%를 제외한 49.4%가 소비, 유통 단계에서 유입된 것으로 조사되었다. 유통, 소비단계에서의 곤충 이물 유입은 전 지구적인 기후변화와 소비자 트랜드 변화, 유통, 물류 시스템 변화 등의 요인과 결합되어 지속적으로 증가되고 있으나 제품 생산 후 제품이 물류센터, 특약점, 도, 소매점과 같은 다양한 환경에 노출되고 소비자 사용 시 다양한 원인으로 인해 발생되기 때문에 근본적인 원인 제거는 불가능 하다. 따라서 현재로써는 방충포장을 통해 곤충오염 리스크를 줄이는 방안이 가장 효과적일 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 유통 중 제품으로 유입되는 곤충을 제어하기 위해 생산비 증가와 식품 안전에 미치는 영향을 고려하여 천연식물 추출물을 활용한 방충박스포장소재를 개발하고 이를 약 770만 제품박스에 적용한 결과 소비자 해충클레임이 65%정도 감소하는 것으로 조사되었다.

There exists very little information on the ultrastructure of substance P immunopositive (+) fibers in the human dental pulp, which may help in understanding the mechanism for substance P associated pulpal inflammatory pain. To address this issue, we investigated the presence of substance P+ fibers in the human dental pulp by light- and electron-microscopic immunohistochemistry. Light microscopy revealed that substance P+ fibers ran within neurovascular bundles in the radicular pulp and in the core of coronal pulp. They were also frequently present in the peripheral pulp. Substance P+ fibers showed beads like swellings interconnected by thin axonal strand, in a manner similar to bouton en passants and interconnecting axonal strand in the spinal cord. Electron microscopy revealed that almost all the substance P+ axons were unmyelinated. The axonal swellings of the substance P+ contained numerous clear round vesicles (40-50 nm in diameter) and many large dense-cored vesicles (80-110 nm in diameter) as well as many mitochondria. The vesicles and mitochondria were rarely observed in the thin axonal strand interconnecting the swellings. Intimate interrelationship or synaptic structure between the swellings of substance P+ axon and nearby pulpal cells or axons was not found. These findings suggest co-release of substance P and glutamate from the substance P+ pulpal axons and its action on nearby structures in a paracrine manner.

Recently, there is an increasing the pavement distresses such as rutting with an increase in heavy vehicles on the road in Mongolia. Rutting is the longitudinal depression in the wheel path in asphalt pavements and it causes a hydroplaning and severe safety concern for users. This study aims to develop paving material that can prevent rutting on the road pavement by improving the durability of the asphalt mixture in Mongolia. Therefore, this study was carried out using the technique of reinforcing the material by adding fibers to conventional asphalt mixture. Fibers have been used to reinforce various materials for many decades in various parts of the world. It is generally understood that asphalt is strong in compression and weak in tension. Adding fibers with high tensile strength can help increase the strength of a mixture[1]. A mixture of glass fibers was used in this study to evaluate the performance characteristics. In coordination with the City of Ulaanbaatar, The test section selected in this study was Peace Avenue in Ulaanbaatar. The test section was a bus lane with severe rutting by heavy vehicles. The designated road test section performed cutting and overlay using five asphalt mixtures: Glass Fiber-reinforced Asphalt, Hot Mix Asphalt(10mm, 19mm), Polymer Modify Asphalt(2 types). The performance survey was conducted after the summer. As a result, No noticeable cracks were observed in glass-reinforced mixture section and the rut-depth of the glass-reinforced mixture is lower than other mixtures[2].

In order to improve the durability of the asphalt pavement, the glass fiber reinforced asphalt which reinforces the aggregate and the binder in three - dimensional form by adding glass fiber to the asphalt mixture has been studied and the durability improvement effect of the asphalt pavement has been confirmed. Porous pavement has been increasingly applied due to reduced traffic accidents and noise reduction, but durability problems such as aggregate stripping and pot-hole are emerging. This study evaluated the durability enhancement effect by adding glass fiber to the porous mixture. The cantabro loss ratio and the indirect tensile strength test were performed to evaluate the performance of the glass fiber reinforced porous mixture. The glass fibers were added to the mixture using PG76-22 and PG64-22 binder and not to the mixture using PG82-22 binder. The mixture using the PG76-22 binder was added 1.4% (PEGS 0.6%, Micro PPGF 0.2%, Macro PPGF 0.6%) glass fiber based on the weight of the mixture. The mixture using the PG64-22 binder was added 1.4% (PEGS 0.6%, Micro PPGF 0.2%, Macro PPGF 0.6%) and 2.1% %(PEGS 0.9%, Micro PPGF 0.3%, Macro PPGF 0.9%)glass fibers by weight of the mixture. The glass fibers were used at the same ratio as that applied to the conventional asphalt mixture test. As a result of the cantabro loss rate test, the mixture using the PG82-22 binder showed a loss rate of 10.7% at 20 ℃ and 22.4% at -20 ℃. The mixture using PG76-22 binder and 1.4% glass fiber showed a loss ratio of 13.2% at 20 ℃ and 26.7% at -20 ℃. The mixture using PG64-22 binder and 1.4% glass fiber showed a loss rate of 12.5% at 20 ℃ and 35.9% at -20 ℃. The mixture using PG64-22 binder and 2.1% glass fiber showed a loss rate of 11.9% at 20 ℃ and 26.6% at -20 ℃. The three mixtures (using of PG82-22 binder, PG76-22 binder + 1.4% glass fiber and PG64-22 binder + 2.1% glass fiber) satisfied quality standard of Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport. As a result of the indirect tensile strength test, the mixture using the PG82-22 binder showed 0.73 N/㎟. The mixture using PG76-22 binder and 1.4% glass fiber showed 0.88 N/㎟. The mixture using PG64-22 binder and 1.4% glass fiber showed 0.62 N/㎟. The mixture using PG64-22 binder and 2.1% glass fiber showed 0.74 N/㎟. In this study, the durability enhancement effect was confirmed by adding glass fiber to the drainage mixture. We will do further research to confirm the optimal combination of glass fibers.

식품에서 발견되는 곤충이물은 크게 제조단계와 유통, 소비단계에서 유입으로 대별된다. 식약처 발표에 따르면 2016년 5332건 이물신고 건수의 34.3% 인 1830건이 곤충이물이며 이중 조사, 판정 불가 56%, 제조단계 6.5%를 제외한 49.4%가 소비, 유통 단계에서 유입된 것으로 조사되었다. 유통, 소비단계에서의 곤충 이물 유입은 전 지구적인 기후변화와 소비자 트랜드 변화, 유통, 물류 시스템 변화 등의 요인과 결합되어 지속적으로 증가되는 추세이다. 실제로 전국 8개소의 물류창고에서의 화랑곡나방 모니터링 실시 결과 주변환경 보다는 반품창고로부터 오염될 가능성이 높아 이산화염소 가스를 이용하여 훈증실험을 한 결과 곤충, 곰팡이 오염원을 효과적으로 제어할 수 있었다. 또한 유통 중 제품으로 유입되는 곤충을 제어하기 위해 천연식물 추출물을 활용한 방충포장소재를 약 770만 제품박스에 적용한 결과 소비자 해충 클레임이 65%정도 감소하는 것으로 조사되었다.

Ginger was steamed at 121 o C and 1.5 lb/in 2 for 30 min, dried at 60 o C for 12 h, and each step was repeated nine times. During processing, the lightness (L* value) and yellowness (b* value) decreased from 85.65±0.33 and 26.99±0.20 in the non-treated ginger to 56.91±0.25 and 16.69±0.06 in ginger treated for the ninth treatment. On the other hand, redness (a* value) increased from -1.51±0.03 to 7.34±0.08 on the eight treatment and then decreased to 7.21±0.04 on the ninth theatment. The contents of 6-gingerol decreased from 3.257±0.067 mg/g in the non-treated ginger to 0.567±0.036 mg/g on the theatment, whereas the contents of 6-shogaol increased from 1.299±0.050 mg/g to 2.999±0.089 mg/g on the sixth treatment and decreased to 2.099±0.039 on the ninth treatment. The contents of 10-gingerol decreased slightly from 1.106±0.125 mg/g to 0.806±0.026 mg/g. Unlike the 6- and 10-gingerol, the contents of 8-gingerol did not change greatly, with values between 0.916±0.005 mg/g and 1.106±0.005 mg/g being observed during processing. The tyrosinase inhibitory activities were increased from 43.42±11.45% in the non-treated ginger to 100% on the sixth treatment and then decreased to 51.98±7.36% on the theatment. The antioxidative activity was retained during processing.

Various insect pests and plant disease can outbreak in a field. For the effective control of pests and plant diseases during crop cultivation, farmers simultaneously or sequentially spray various eco-friendly agricultural materials (EFAM), chemical pesticides and microbial control agents on the same fields. It was reported that many agrochemicals are harmful to entomopathogenic fungi, especially some fungicides with broad spectrum activity that are routinely applied for the control of plant diseases. In addition, some pesticides may antagonize the potential insecticidal activity and efficiency of entomopathogenic fungi. Therefore, sometimes the utilization of fungal entomopathogen in forestry and agricultural production is limited because of the undesirable interference from some fungicides and pesticides. There is little research that examines the compatibility of these EFAMs with entomopathogenic fungi and the influence of EFAMs on the control efficacy of mycopesticides. We conducted a study of influence of pretreated eco-friendly agricultural materials on control efficacy of Isaria javanica isolate against sweet potato whitefly.

Agro-morphological characterization of Hibiscus germplasm is a fundamental prerequisite to initiate plant breeding programs. The prime aim of this study was to characterize 107 Hibiscus syriacus genotypes using agromorphological characteristics and to collect useful data to facilitate the breeders for H. syriacus breeding programs. In this study, it has been recorded that this species appears to have innumerable variability in the morphological characteristics among Korean and exotic cultivars. Plant height of Korean and exotic H. syriacus cultivars were recorded and data revealed that the maximum plant height (143 cm) was recorded in ‘Woodbridge’ which had tall-erect plant shape. ‘Serenade’ and ‘Saemaeul’ cultivars had vigorous growth and had plant height of 141 and 137 cm, respectively and both had tall-erect plant shape. The diameters of H. syriacus flower ranged from 4.1 cm in ‘Kakchang’ to 9.4 cm in ‘Pyonghwa’. The data analysis exhibited that analysis flowers of ~ 86% of Korean cultivars had single type of flower’s form compared to exotic cultivars (~ 61%). The data related to flower shape showed that among Korean native cultivars the maximum plants (52.1%) had intermediate type of flowers followed by bowl (26.1%) and flat type (21.8%). Similar trend in exotic cultivars were observed for flower shape. In case of petal shape among total cultivars studied, 27.9% native H. syriacus plants had broard type of petals whereas 17.7 exotic cultivars had intermediate type of petals. Present results indicated high variability among H. syriacus cultivars, which presents great significance for Hibiscus breeding programs and for genetic studies in order to develop new varieties of H. syriacus.

For replacement of methyl bromide(MB) in Korea, there are several chemical options being introduced and developed in preplant and postharvest sections. In soil case, methyl-isothiocyanate(MITC) generating fumigant such as dazomet and metham sodium are currently being adapted for prevent from spreading soilborne disease and nematode, although there will be more successful application technology needed to develop in domestic circumstances. Also, ethanedinitrile(EDN), is newly developed chemical, could be one of the options to eradicate notorious soilborne diseases and nematodes near future. Ethyl formate(EF) now is showing the potential to replace MB in terms of consumer and worker safety and unwanted phytotoxic damage in routine MB fumigation. A phosphine gas(PH3) could be the last option to protect the import and export stored grains from stored grain insects and to solve the current issue such as PH3-resistant insect and consumer safety issues to replace metal phosphide. EDN also should be extended its use in not only timber and log fumigation in quarantine purpose but in use of national heritage and forest to keep wood infested pest safer. This presentation will be good opportunities to share the information and discuss with further research needs in current MB alterative program.

We developed a high-performance methane gas sensor based on a SnO2 hollow hemisphere array structure of nano-thickness. The sensor structures were fabricated by sputter deposition of Sn metal over an array of polystyrene spheres distributed on a planar substrate, followed by an oxidation process to oxidize the Sn to SnO2 while removing the polystyrene template cores. The surface morphology and structural properties were examined by scanning electron microscopy. An optimization of the structure for methane sensing was also carried out. The effects of oxidation temperature, film thickness, gold doping, and morphology were examined. An impressive response of ~220% was observed for a 200 ppm concentration of CH4 gas at an operating temperature of 400˚C for a sample fabricated by 30 sec sputtering of Sn, and oxidation at 800˚C for 2 hr in air. This high response was enabled by the open structure of the hemisphere array thin films.
