Ginseng seeds were treated with different autoclaving temperatures and autoclaving times, and extracted with 80% methanol to measure changes in antioxidant activity. The antioxidant activity of ginseng seeds treated by autoclaving was measured by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity, 2,2'-aziono-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline)-6-sulfonic acid radical scavenging activity, superoxide dismutase SOD-like activity, ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), and total phenolic compound content. As autoclaving temperature and time were increased, the L lightness value decreased and the redness value tended to increase. Total phenolic compound content was about three times higher in ginseng seeds treated with autoclaving at 130°C than in ginseng seeds that were not treated. DPPH radical scavenging activity and ABTS radical scavenging activity increased as autoclaving temperature and time were increased. In particular, when the concentration was 100 ppm, the ABTS radical scavenging activity was 91.80% in ginseng seeds treated by autoclaving at $130^{\circ}C$, which was the highest antioxidant activity. FRAP and SOD-like antioxidant activity tended to increase significantly as autoclaving temperature and time were increased.

This is the experimental study on the strength development of the light weight concrete block according to the autoclaving time. The calcareous source used the cement, siliceous material used the bottom ash ground to fine particle, and the PP fiber used to increase toughness. The results of this experiment are as follows. According to the increase of autoclaving time and the fiber content, compressive and flexural strengths are increased. Despite of the changes of the autoclaving time, tobermorite was produced on each of the specimens. However, the phase of tobermorite was changed in accordance with the changes of autoclaving time.

This study was done to investigate the quality characteristics of salmon frame with citric acid pretreatment. Sliced salmon frame samples were cured in soy sauce, sugar, pepper, and sodium nitrate for 12 h and then dried at 3 h and then dried at $60^{\circ}C$ for 3 h. As the autoclaving at $130^{\circ}C$ for 15 min, the pH, moisture content, crude ash, crude fat, crude protein, acid value (AV), peroxide value (POV), volatile basic nitrogen (VBN), trimethylamine (TMA), total plate count and E. coli were measured at $4^{\circ}C$, $25^{\circ}C$ and $35^{\circ}C$ of storage days. The AV, POV, VBN, TMA and total plate count for all samples significantly increased as during storage days (p<0.05). All samples of storage, for autoclaving on salmon frame, there were no growth on E.coli. In the making of autoclaving on salmon frame, technologies for more safety from microbial growth should accompany pretreatment with citric acid.

고압증기멸균을 통해서 변형된 키토산을 FT-IR로 분석해 봤을 때, 기존의 키토산의 형태를 유지하고 있음을 알수가 있었고 분자량을 변화 시킨 키토산을 기존의 키토산과 납 흡착실험을 통해서 제거능 비교해 볼 때 15 min > 30 min > 10 min > 5min > 60 min > 0 min 순으로 나타났다 이로써 시간별로 autoclaving처리하여 분자량을 변화시킨 키토산의 제거율이 높음을 알 수가 있었다. 그 중에서도 15 min 동안 autoclaving처리하는 것이 가장 적당한 것으로 알 수가 있었다. 중금속 제거 전후의 키토산을 SAM과 TEM을 통해서 관찰해 보았다. SAM의 경우 autoclaving처리하지 않은 키토산의 표면보다는 autoclaving처리한 키토산의 표면에 보다 많은 기공이 생겨났음을 알 수 있었으며 그로 인해서 납 중금속이 보다 많이 흡착되어 있음을 알 수가 있었다. TEM의 결과로 봤을 때 높은 고압과 온도에 의해서 키토산 고유의 물결무늬가 사라졌음을 알 수가 있었다. 납 중금속이 내부에는 흡착이 이루어지지 않고 외부에 흡착이 이루어 진 것을 볼 수가 있었다.

Changes in phosphorus compounds and phytic acid of mung bean, soybean, sesame and perilla were investigated during soaking in water, germination, incubation at $60^{\circ}C$ and autoclaving at $120^{\circ}C$. The results showed that total P in all the seeds was decreased slightly by soaking and incubation, but increased in mung bean, soybean during germination. Inorganic P was increased for all the seeds after soaking for 24 hrs, while its content in mung bean, soybean and sesame was significantly increased during germination. Phytic acid content in mung bean, soybean and sesame was significantly seduced by 92 %, 76 % and 78 %, respectively, after 5-6 days of germination. Soaking the seeds for 24 hrs resulted in the reduction of phytic acid by the range of 8-25 %. It was also found that incubation at $60^{\circ}C$ for 10 hrs or autoclaving at $120^{\circ}C$ for 4 hrs affected significantly for removal of phytic acid from the legume seeds.

This study was carried out to prepare the depolymerized alginates by physical treatment processing with organic acids. The applied physical treatment methods were autoclaving, microwaving, and ultrasonicating, Among several physical depolymerization methods, autoclaving treatment was the most effective for hydrolyzing the alginate to low molecular compounds such as oligosaccharides. Citrate was most effective catalyst in hydrolyzing alginate to some oligosaccharides among organic acids. An acceptable autoclaving conditions for hydrolyzing alginate to oligosaccharides were to treat at $110^{\circ}C$ for 90 min and $120^{\circ}C$ for 60 min, respectively. The maximum depolymerization percentage produced by autoclaving was $56.8\%$. The depolymerized alginates prepared by autoclaving at $110^{\circ}C\;and\;120^{\circ}C$ has oligosaccharides of $3\~4 $and $7\~8$ species, respectively. The optimum condition for alginate oligosaccarides was autoclaving treatment with $0.5\%$ citrate solution at $120^{\circ}C$ for 90 min.

The effects of heat treatment on the physical and physical and physiological properties of wax gourd (Benincasa hispida) were examined. The applied heat treatments were autoclaved at $121^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr, boiled for 30 min, and microwaved at 680 W for 5 min. The water retention capacity (WRC) of the wax gourds was 9.43 g/g for the microwaved samples, 5.12 g/g for the boiled samples, 4.63 g/g for the raw samples, and 2.61 g/g for the autoclaved samples. Heat treatment caused to increase swelling by up to $4.4{\sim}7.8\;mL/g$. Calcium binding capacity of heat-treated wax gourd increased in the order of microwaved, boiled, raw, autoclaved samples. Scanning electron microscopy (SME) showed that autoclaving caused the most severe structural modifications, while microwave treatment produced the least modifications. The retarding effect on glucose and bile acid transport depended on the heat treatment. Only boiling showed the glucose retardation effect. Bile acid retardation effect increased in order of boiling (22.9%), autoclaving (17.1%), microwave treatment (14.3%), and raw wax gourd (8.6%). The cadmium retardation effect was significantly high in all samples.

As a part of investigation for utilizing seafood processing by-products as a functional food source, we investigated the processing condition (extraction methods and autoclaving time) of a functional calcium-based powder from fish bones and its characteristics. The calcium-based powder from Alaska pollack bone by autoclaving in water showed lower in the calcium content and higher in the yields and the soluble calcium ratio than those from fish bone by the other calcium extraction methods. As the autoclaving time elapsed up to 40 min, the content and soluble ratio of calcium increased, and the yield decreased. On the other hand, there were no difference found in those among calcium-based powders autoclaved for 40 min and over. Judging from the results, the calcium-based powder from Alaska pollack autoclaved in water for 40 min (CAP) was superior to those from fish bone by the other processing condition. The CAP was mostly solublized by shaking $(37^{\circ}C)$ for 1 hr at the acidic condition (pH 2.0). The soluble calcium ratio of acid-solublized CAP was about 59% by shaking $(37^{\circ}C)$ for 3 hr and over at the neutral condition (pH 7.0).

We investigated the influence of various known sterilization methods on atrazine assimilation. The present study was designed to investigate the effect of autoclaving, sodium azide and mercuric chloride treatment on the assimilation of atrazine in soil and sediment. The sterilization reactor treated with sodium azide resulted in $^{14}CO_2$ generation and atrazine was rapidly disappeared from reactor through chemical reaction with sodium azide. These findings seem to indicate that sodium azide sterilization is not recommended for atrazine studies. In sample reactors autoclaved or treated with mercuric chloride, $^{14}CO_2$ generation was not detected and most of the disappeared atrazine was found to exist as hydroxyatrazine. These results suggested that autoclaving or mercuric chloride treatment could be effective sterilization methods. However, chemical properties(pH and redox potential) of soil and sediment were altered by any of the sterilization methods applied. So it was suspected that these altered properties could affect distribution and mineralization of atrazine in soil and sediment. In addition, both autoclaving and mercuric chloride treatment have altered $K_d$ values of hydroxyatrazine more significantly than those of atrazine. Consequently, although autoclaving and mercuric chloride treatment are effective sterilization methods, one must be careful in using them in practice as these methods may cause chemical degradation of both of atrazine and its metabolites and changes in chemical properties of soil and sediment. In conclusion, careful assessment of sterilization methods must be made for the degradation studies of chemicals in soil and sediment in order to minimize possible undesirable chemical degradation of sample and/or changes in physico-chemical properties of soil and sediment by the selected sterilization methods.

The aim of this study was to produce resistant starch preparations from acid-modified com starches prepared at various hydrolysis levels (0.5-4.0 hr). Effect of autoclaving cycles on resistant starch (RS) formation was investigated. Molecular weight distribution, pasting and functional properties of acid-modified com starches were determined. For RS formation native and acid-modified starch samples were gelatinized and autoclaved (1 or 2 cycles). While native and acid-modified starches did not contain any RS, the levels increased to 9.0-13.5% as a result of storage at $95^{\circ}C$ after first autoclaving cycle. Second autoclaving cycle together with storage at $95^{\circ}C$ brought final RS contents of the samples incubated at 4 and $95^{\circ}C$ after the first cycle to comparable level. As acid modification level increased, the amount of high molecular weight fractions decreased, resulting in significant decreases in viscosities (p<0.05). The samples produced in this study had low emulsion stability and capacity values.
