This study is performed to evaluate an elastic properties and acid-resistance of concrete using pine needle ash(PNA). Materials used for this experiment are PNA , normal portland cement, natural fine and coarse aggregate. Test results show that the highest ultrasonic pulse velocity , dynamic and static modulus of elasticity is achieved by 5% PNA filled PNA concrete, which has showed similar with those of thei normal cement concrete. Acid-resistance of PNA concrete is increased with increase of the contnet of PNA , it is 1.29 times of the normal cement concrete by 5% PNA fille PNA concrete an d2.57 times by 15% PNA filled PNA concrete . Accordingly , PNA concrete wil greatly improve the properties of concrete.

A Comparative study was performed among five Korean wheat(Greu, Eunpa, Tapdong, Allgreu, Woori) and three imported wheat(Dark Northern Spring, Austrian Standard Wheat, Western White) to investigate the characteristics of minerals and phytate from Korean wheat varieties. Ash contents of kernel was higher in Korean wheat than in imported wheat and related to ash contents and darkness of flour. More contents of Fe, P, and Mg from Korean wheat grains and Fe from Korean wheat flours were observed in comparison to imported wheat varieties. Fe concentration in Korean flour show high, indicating Fe was distributed at endosperm layer of kernels and not eliminated with milling. In addition, phytate affecting availability of minerals was determined from kernels and flours. Even though Korean wheat kernels had more phytate than that of imported wheat kernels, it is believed that most of phytate was removed with milling and there was no major difference between Korean and imported wheat flours. We also observed that the content of phosphate closely parallels the content of phytate from both the flours and kernels.
