Abstract: Disclosed herein is an refrigerator. The refrigerator includes a body provided with a storage chamber, a door configured to open or close the storage chamber, a display unit provided on the door, and a heat radiating unit disposed adjacent to the display unit and configured to radiate a heat generated in the display unit via a heat radiating flow path formed inside the door, wherein one end of the heat radiating flow path is communicated with the outside via a first hole formed in an upper end portion of the door, and the other end of the heat radiating flow path is communicated with the outside via a second hole formed in a lower end portion of the door.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a refrigerator which includes: a main body having an opening, and including a storage chamber therein; a door configured to open or close the opening; a camera unit disposed in the door, and configured to photograph the storage chamber, wherein the camera unit faces the storage chamber selectively by interworking with opening or closing of the door. With this configuration, it may look in the storage chamber of the refrigerator without opening any door and minimize exposure of the camera unit to the outside.

Abstract: A refrigerator preventing a door thereof from drooping downward and allow the door to be automatically closed. The refrigerator includes a body, a storage compartment provided in the body, a front thereof being open, a door rotatably coupled to the body to open and close the storage compartment, a support unit coupled to a center of a lower portion of the body, the support unit including at least one rotating member arranged to protrude from a front of the body to correspond to a position of the lower portion of the door, and at least one droop prevention unit coupled to the lower portion of the door at a position corresponding to the rotating member, and supported by the rotating member to prevent the door from drooping downward, the droop prevention unit cooperating with the rotating member to support the door in an upward direction when the door is closed.

Abstract: A purification method of 1,4-diaminobutane, 1,4-diaminobutane purified using the purification method, and a polyamide prepared using the purified 1,4-diaminobutane are provided. The purification method of 1,4-diaminobutane includes: concentrating a fermentation solution including at least one of 1,4-diaminobutane and a salt thereof to obtain a concentrate; adding a base to the concentrate of the fermentation solution to prepare an basic composition having a pH 12 or higher; and recovering 1,4-diaminobutane from the basic composition.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for producing a flavoring containing L-glutamic acid derived from natural foods by adjusting the content of ammonia remaining in a final fermentation broth after completion of culture to be in the range of 0 to 10 g/L in cultivation of L-glutamic acid producing microorganisms, thereby facilitating drying of the fermentation liquor containing L-glutamic acid. A flavoring produced by the method is also disclosed.

Abstract: A process for the production of animal feed additives from fermentation broth containing L-lysine is disclosed. The process does not require filtering of biomass in order to remove the biomass and produces granulated lysine of controllable lysine content with a high bulk density, low viscosity, and a low hygroscopic property which does not require the addition of an anti-absorptive substance. In this process, a lysine fermentation broth produced after slant culture, flask culture, seed process, and cultivation process is concentrated to a solid content of about 44˜52%. A product with low hygroscopicity, high bulk density, and the intended amount of contents is produced after being mixed with substances for controlling the amount of contents and granulated by coating the surface of the seeds. This process enables a production of animal feed additives having a lysine-HCl content of at least 65%, a water content of at most 3%, and a bulk density of 670±50 kg/m3.

Abstract: A filler to seal a gap between a plurality of doors is provided with a height adjustment portion, thereby enabling a height of the filler to be uniformly maintained regardless of deflection of the door. Accordingly, the filler may be smoothly operated regardless of deflection of the door, and cold air in a storage chamber may be prevented from escaping. The height adjustment portion has a truncated cone shape, and may be supported by a bottom surface of the storage chamber when the door is closed in a deflected state.
