This study aimed to understand the physiological status of the beet armyworm, Spodoptera exigua at low developmental threshold temperature (LTT) through analysis of gene-expression patterns associated with different functions (metabolism, nervous system, immune, and stress). The estimated LTTs for egg, larval, and pupal developments varied with $5.5{\sim}11.6^{\circ}C$. Larvae were able to develop at the lower temperatures than eggs and pupae. However, the physiological LTT ($15^{\circ}C$) in the fifth instar was much higher than the estimated LTT ($10.3^{\circ}C$). Gene expression patterns estimated by a quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) indicate that most genes in different functional groups increased their expressions with increase of larval instars. In the same fifth instar, as the treatment temperatures increased, the gene expression levels increased. Moreover, the newly molted fifth instar larvae were different in their gene expression rates according to their previous culturing temperatures. Most gene expressions were suppressed in the fifth instar larvae at the physiological LTT ($15^{\circ}C$). However, the larvae at $15^{\circ}C$ gradually exhibited significant increase in the gene expression rates with rearing time just like those at the higher temperature. These results suggest that S. exigua at LTT exhibits a typical gene expression pattern with maintaining significantly suppressed levels.

To investigate the effect of early-morning heating periods on growth and yield of cucumber and heating load in a greenhouse cultivation, three additional heating periods (0, 1 and 2 hours) were compared to rise temperature from $12^{\circ}C\;to\;16^{\circ}C$ in the early-morning. Leaf temperature just before opening the thermal screen was $3.3^{\circ}C\;and\;4.1^{\circ}C$ higher in the 1 and 2 hour heating compared to that in the control (0 hour heating), respectively. Photosynthetic rate, conductance to $H_2O$ and transpiration rate of cucumber leaves were the highest in the 2 hour heating, and the lowest in the control. However. the difference between the 1 hour and 2 hour heating was not significant. Inorganic element content in cucumber leaves was not significant among the treatments of duration. Initial growth after planting of cucumber was greater in the 1 and 2 hour heating than that in the control. Yield increased by $11\%\;and\;15\%$ in the 1 hour and 2 hour heating compared to that in the control. respectively. Fuel consumption for heating increased by $12\%\;and\;22\%$ in the 1 hour and 2 hour heating compared to that in the control, respectively. Considering in the yield and fuel consumption for heating. 1 or 2 hours of early morning heating could be effective in temperature management for cucumber in a greenhouse cultivation.

Spirometra mansoni plerocercoid (sparganum) was incubated in saline at $4^{\circ}C{\;}or{\;}37^{\circ}C$ up to 100 hours. Protein contests in the excretory$.$secretory product (ESP) were rather constant (mean 7.7 mg of protein/gram of sparganum) in the preparations. Reducing SDS-PAGE of ESP showed similar protein subunit compositions with those in crude extract. Antigenic 36 and 31 kDa Proteins were major bands in ESP. ESP exhibited specific activities of protease(2.9~5.3 units/mg) at pH 6.0 and pH 7.5. Presence of protease activity in ESP may be a supporting evidence that hitherto known cysteiRe protease of sparganum is possibly secreted.

This study generated regression models to quantify storage and annual uptake of carbon from five native landscape tree species through a direct harvesting method, and established essential information to estimate carbon reduction effects from urban greenspaces. Tree species for the study included the Chionanthus retusus, Prunus armeniaca, Abies holophylla, Cornus officinalis, and Taxus cuspidata, which are usually planted in cities of middle Korea, but for which no information on carbon reduction is available. Ten tree individuals for each species were sampled reflecting various stem diameter sizes at a given interval. The study measured biomass for each part including the roots of sample trees to compute total carbon storage per tree. The annual carbon uptake per tree was quantified by analyzing the radial growth rates of stem samples at breast height or ground level. Regression models were developed using diameter at breast height (dbh) or ground level (dg) as an independent variable to easily estimate storage and annual uptake of carbon per tree for each species. All the regression models showed high fitness with $r^2$ values of 0.92~0.99. Storage and annual uptake of carbon from a tree with dbh of 10 cm were greatest with C. retusus (20.0 kg and 5.9 kg/yr, respectively), followed by P. armeniaca (17.5 kg and 4.5 kg/yr) and A. holophylla (13.2kg and 1.8 kg/yr) in order. A C. officinalis tree and T. cuspidata tree with dg of 10 cm stored 9.3 and 6.3 kg of carbon and annually sequestered 3.2 and 0.6 kg, respectively. The above-mentioned carbon storage equaled the amount of carbon emitted from gasoline consumption of about 23~35 L for C. retusus, P. armeniaca, and A. holophylla, and 11~16 L for C. officinalis and T. cuspidata. A tree with the diameter size of 10 cm annually offset carbon emissions from gasoline use of about 6~10 L for C. retusus, P. armeniaca, and C. officinalis, and 1~3 L for A. holophylla and T. cuspidata. The study breaks new ground to easily quantify biomass and carbon reduction for the tree species by overcoming difficulties in direct cutting and root digging of urban landscape trees.

수소화된 비정질 실리콘(a-Si:H)과 미세결정질 실리콘 ($\mu$c-Si:H)은 저온.건식 공정인 PECVD로 값싼 유리 기판을 사용하여 넓은 면적에 증착이 가능하다는 큰 장점으로 인해 광전소자(photovoltaic device)와 박막 트랜지스터(TFTs)등에 폭넓게 응용되어 왔으며 최근에는 nm 크기의 실리콘 결정(nc-Si)에서 가시광선 영역의 발광 현상이 발견됨에 따라 광소자로서의 특성을 제어하기 위해서는 성장 조건과 공정 변수에 따른 구조 변화에 대한 연구가 선행되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 UHV-ECR-PECVD 법을 이용하여 H2로 희석된 SiH4로부터 a-Si:H과 $\mu$c-Si:H를 증착하였다. 그림 1은 SiH4 20sccm/H2 50sccm/25$0^{\circ}C$에서 기판의 DC bias를 변화시키면서 박막을 증착시킬 때 나타나는 박막의 구조 변화를 raman spectrum의 To phonon peak의 위치와 반가폭의 변화로 나타낸 것이다. 비정질 실리콘 박막은 DC bias를 증가시킴에 따라 무질서도가 증가하다가 어떤 critical DC bias에서 최대치를 이룬후 다시 질서도가 증가한다. 이온의 충격력에 의해 박막내에 응력이 축적되면 박막의 에너지 상태가 높아지고 이 축적된 응력이 ordering에 대한 에너지 장벽을 넘을 수 있을 만큼 커지게 되면 응력이 풀리면서 ordering이 가능해지는 것으로 생각된다. 그림 2는 수소 결합 형태의 변화이다. 박막의 무질서도가 증가할 경우 알려진 바와 같이 2000cm-1근처의 peak은 감소하고 2100cm-1 부근이 peak이 증가하는 현상을 보였다. 본 논문에서는 여러 공정 변수, 특히 DC bias에 따르는 박막의 구조 변화와 다른 성장 조건(온도, 유량비)이 critical DC bias나 결정화, 결정성 등에 미치는 영향에 대한 분석결과를 보고하고자 한다.등을 이용하여 광학적 밴드갭, 광흡수 계수, Tauc Plot, 그리고 파장대별 빛의 투과도의 변화를 분석하였으며 각 변수가 변화함에 따라 광학적 밴드갭의 변화를 정량적으로 조사함으로써 분자결합상태와 밴드갭과 광 흡수 계수간의상관관계를 규명하였고, 각 변수에 따른 표면의 조도를 확인하였다. 비정질 Si1-xCx 박막을 증착하여 특성을 분석한 결과 성장된 박막의 성장률은 Carbonfid의 증가에 따라 다른 성장특성을 보였고, Silcne(SiH4) 가스량의 감소와 함께 박막의 성장률이 둔화됨을 볼 수 있다. 또한 Silane 가스량이 적어지는 영역에서는 가스량의 감소에 의해 성장속도가 둔화됨을 볼 수 있다. 또한 Silane 가스량이 적어지는 영역에서는 가스량의 감소에 의해 성장속도가 줄어들어 성장률이 Silane가스량에 의해 지배됨을 볼 수 있다. UV-VIS spectrophotometer에 의한 비정질 SiC 박막의 투과도와 파장과의 관계에 있어 유리를 기판으로 사용했으므로 유리의투과도를 감안했으며, 유리에 대한 상대적인 비율 관계로 투과도를 나타냈었다. 또한 비저질 SiC 박막의 흡수계수는 Ellipsometry에 의해 측정된 Δ과 Ψ값을 이용하여 시뮬레이션한 결과로 비정질 SiC 박막의 두께를 이용하여 구하였다. 또한 Tauc Plot을 통해 박막의 optical band gap을 2.6~3.7eV로 조절할 수 있었다. 20$0^{\circ}C$이상으로 증가시켜도 광투과율은 큰 변화를 나타내지 않았다.부터 전분-지질복합제의 형성 촉진이 시사되었다.이것으로 인하여 호화억제에 의한 노화 방지효과가 기대되었지만 실제로 빵의 노화는 현저히 진행되었다. 이것은 quinua 대체량 증가에 따른 반죽의 안정성이 저하되어 버린 것으로 생각되어진다. 더욱이 lipase를 첨가하면 반죽이 분화하는 경향이 보여졌지만 첨가량 75ppm에 있어서 상당히 비용적의 증대가 보였다. 이것은 lipase의 가수분해에 의해

Cu를 함유한 2종의 저합금 고장력강(HSLA-A, HSLA-B)\ulcorner 기계적 성질에 미치는 시효처리의 영향을 조사하였다. 탄소량이 적음에도 불구하고 Cu첨가로 석출물을 생성시킴으로서 2합금 모두 $650^{\circ}C$에서 시효한 경우 양호한 강도(HSLA-A:Y.S 703Mpa, E.L 22.6% HSLA-B:Y.S 810 Mpa, E.L 23.8%)와 인성(HSLA-A:271.4J, HSLA-B:197.5J at -5$0^{\circ}C$)의 조합을 나타내었다. 50$0^{\circ}C$에서 시효할 때 가장 높은 항복 강도를 나타내나 인성은 아주 낮은 값을 나타내었다. 50$0^{\circ}C$이상 시효 온도가 증가하면 강도는 감소하고 인성은 증가하였다. HSLA-B강의 강도가 HSLA-A 강보다 높은데, \ulcorner칭 상태에서의 강도 차이는 경화능을 증가시키는 원소인 Ni, Mn, Mo, Cu의 첨가량 차이에 의한 기지 조직의 차이에 의한 것이며, 시효한 상태에서의 강도 차이는 기지 조직과 석출 강화에 기여하는 Cu량의 차이에 의한 것으로 판단된다. 시효 경화 곡선에서 $700^{\circ}C$에서의 경도 증가는 오스테나이트-페라이트 2상 영역으로부터 냉각시 생성된 “M-A constituents”에 의한 것이다. HSLA-A강과 HSLA-B강의 충격 천이 온도는 각각 -1$25^{\circ}C$와 -145$^{\circ}C$이었다.

Trioctylamine-and tricaprylylmethylammonium chloride-tungstate salts have been prepared by solvent extraction from the sodium tungstate solution of various acidities(pH = 2, 4, 6). The molecular weights of the amine-tungstate salts thus obtained could be cryoscopically measured in benzene by means of a home-built Wheatstone bridge utilizing thermistor with sensitivity of 1/$4000^{\circ}C$. The cryoscopic data along with the results of chemical analysis and infrared spectra of the salts indicate that the amine-tungstates prepared at pH = 2 and 4 are all metatungstate whereas the salt obtained at pH = 6 is an unknown form quite different from the expected paratungstate.R = 0.14. By hydrogen bonding a guanidyl nitrogen of a sulfaguanidine molecule is linked to the sulfonyl oxygens of the other molecules indirectly through two different water molecules. The role of water molecule is both a .
nor and an acceptor in hydrogen-bonding formation and these hydrogen bonds are tetrahedrally o？ented. The hydrogen-bonding networks form infinite molecular layers parallel to (001) plane.

Pyrolysis of polyethylene was carried out in the stainless steel reactor of internal volume of $10cm^3$. Pyrolysis reactions were performed at temperature $390{\sim}450^{\circ}C$ and the pyrolysis products were collected separately as reaction products and gas products. The molecular weight distributions(MWDs) of each product were determined by HPLC-GPC and GC analysis. Distribution balance equation for MWDs of random and specific products were proposed to account for initiation-termination and propagation-depropagation, such as hydrogen abstraction, chain cleavage, coupling of polymer and radical. A separate chain-end scission process produces low molecular weight noncondensable gases(C1 through C5) of average molecular weight 38. Activation energies of the random-chain scission and chain-end scission rate parameters, respectively, were determined to be 35, 17 kcal/mole.

In order to elucidate the possible change in the non-extractable bound residue of TCAB(3,3' 4,4' - tetrachloroazobenzene) in soil as a function of aging period, uniformly ring-labelled $^{14}C-TCAB$ was treated to soil(organic matter : 1.8%), and aged for 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15 months at $21{\pm}1^{\circ}C$, respectively. $^{14}CO_2$ evolution and volatilization loss during the aging were negligible. The amounts of non-extractable bound residue of TCAB increased gradually from 7.55% in 3-month aging to 19.32% in 15-month aging. Partition data suggested no formation of polar groups in the chemical structure of TCAB. Most of $^{14}C-radioactivity$ of bound residues was present in humin in the range of 50.52 to 58.93%. The fact that the number of microorganisms in soil decreased relative to the control suggested no chance of their involvement in the formation of non-extractable bound residues. Accordingly, the increase in the non-extractable bound residue of TCAB in soil with aging period is believed to be due to the transformation of the trans isomer to the cis one which is more polar and more adsorptive than the former.
