Phenathrene derivatives, such as batatasins, are well-known constituents in Dioscorea Rhizoma. Although phenanthrenes have been reported as representative compounds in this plant, standard markers for quality control have been focused on the polar constituents (saponins and purine derivatives). Herein, simple, rapid and reliable HPLC method was developed to determine 3,5-dimethoxyphenanthrene-2,7-diol (DMP) and batatasin-I (BA-I) as non-polar standard maker compounds of Dioscorea Rhizoma. DMP and BA-I were analyzed under optimized HPLC conditions [column: Columbus $5{\mu}$ C18 100A ($30{\times}4.6mm$ i.d., $5{\mu}m$; mobile phase: $H_2O$ with 0.025% $CH_3COOH$ (v/v) for solvent A and $CH_3CN$ with 0.025% $CH_3COOH$ (v/v) for solvent B, gradient elution; flow rate: 2 mL/min; detection: 260 nm), and each experiment was finished within 13 min. Good linearity was achieved in the range from 0.5 to $10.0{\mu}g/mL$ for each compound, and intra- and inter-day precision were in the acceptable levels. The recovery test were performed with three different Dioscorea Rhizoma samples (D. opposita, D. batatas and D. japonica), and showed its accuracy values in the range of 97.2 - 102.8% for three different concentrations of DMP and BA-I. The content levels of DMP and BA-I were ranged under 0.0020%. These results demonstrated that amounts of DMP and BA-I are easily determined with conventional HPLC-UV-DAD method although the content levels were lower than those of saponins and allantoin in Dioscorea Rhizoma. This HPLC method could be used for quality control of various Dioscorea preparations.

$CdS_{0.69}Se_{0.31}$ single crystal grown by sublimation method. Hall effect measurement were carried out by the Van der Pauw method. The measurement values under the temperature were found to be carrier density $n=1.95{\times}10^{23}m^{-3}$, Hall coeffcient $RH=3.21{\times}10^{-5}m^3/c$, conductivity ${\sigma}=362.41{\Omega}^{-1}m^{-1}$, and Hall mobility ${\mu}=1.16{\times}10^{-2}m^2/v.s.$ Heterojunction solar cells of $n-CdS_{0.69}Se_{0.31}/p-Cu_{2-x}S_{0.69}Se_{0.31}$ were fabricated by the substitution reaction. The open-circuit voltage, short-circuit currint density, fill factor and power conversion efficiency of $n-CdS_{0.69}Se_{0.31}/p-Cu_{2-x}S_{0.69}Se_{0.31}$ heterojunction solar cell under $80mW/cm^2$ illumination were found to be 0.41V, $19.5mA/cm^2$, 0.75 and 9.99%, respectivity.

An integrated geophysical survey was conducted to study a construction method of the Sonsanri tombs including the Muryong royal tomb. With the distribution of soil resistivity and self potential values, the boundary between original ground and the construction site was delineated clearly. The original ground has relatively high resistivity of $1,000\~1,500$ ohm-m and low self-potential values of $0{\pm}3mV/m$, while the construction site has low resistivity less than 200 ohm-m and quite high self-potential values of $-20\~30mV/m$. It is interpreted that the open site for construction of subsurface tomb has the size of about 35 m in the north-south direction. Big difference in characteristics of ground between the tomb site and the original site gives a clue for the construction method of tombs in Baekje dynasty. The site was opened about 35 meters in the north-south direction and then a mold structure was constructed with a brick frame outside. The brick frame consists of bricks cemented each other and structually combined. The mold structure was removed from inside after refill of the opened construction site with some cemented rock debris and soil.

We have developed a rapid, simple and precise high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method using an UV detection system for the determination of new anti-HIV candidates, nineteen KR-V compounds, in rat plasma. We used a analytical columnn of $C_{18}$ ($5{\mu}m$, $250{\times}2.0mm$ I.D.) and a mobile phase of water and ACN mixture (40/60, v/v). Under these conditions, all the KR-V compounds were readily separated from plasma with retention times of 4-12 min. The limits of quantitation for the 19 KR-V compounds were 15-30 ng/ml. The recoveries from the plasma were higher than 85% (C.V.<10%) with exception of KR-V 2, 7 and 15. The compounds KR-V 2, 7 and 15, containing ester moieties, were found to be unstable in plasma. This result suggests that esters, like KR -V 2, 7 and 15, should be excluded from future structure design studies of anti-HIV KR-V agents. In conclusion, the current HPLC method is a valuable analytical tool for investigating the pharmacokinetics of the KR-V series in rats.

In order to find out the properties in flow resistance of trawlR=1.5R=1.5\;S\;v^{1.8}\;S\;v^{1.8} nets and the exact expression for the resistance R (kg) under the water flow of velocity v(m/sec), the experimental data on R obtained by other, investigators were pigeonholed into the form of $R=kSv^2$, where $k(kg{\cdot}sec^2/m^4)$ was the resistance coefficient and $S(m^2)$ the wall area of nets, and then k was analyzed by the resistance formular obtained in the previous paper. The analyzation produced the coefficient k expressed as $$k=4.5(\frac{S_n}{S_m})^{1.2}v^{-0.2}$$ in case of bottom trawl nets and as $$k=5.1\lambda^{-0.1}(\frac{S_n}{S_m})^{1.2}v^{-0.2}$$ in midwater trawl nets, where $S_m(m^2)$ was the cross-sectional area of net mouths, $S_n(m^2)$ the area of nets projected to the plane perpendicular to the water flow and $\lambda$ the representitive size of nettings given by ${\pi}d^2/2/sin2\varphi$ (d : twine diameter, 2l: mesh size, $2\varphi$ : angle between two adjacent bars). The value of $S_n/S_m$ could be calculated from the cone-shaped bag nets equal in S with the trawl nets. In the ordinary trawl nets generalized in the method of design, however, the flow resistance R (kg) could be expressed as $$R=1.5\;S\;v^{1.8}$$ in bottom trawl nets and $$R=0.7\;S\;v^{1.8}$$ in midwater trawl nets.

Isotopic-spectral method [I] was applicated for determination of carbon in silicate materials (pure silica, guartz glasses, geological probs etc.). Isotopic heterogeneous balancing of carbon in gaseous phase and solid samples was carried out at the temperature of $1500-1900^{\circ}K$. Spectroscopic measuring of isotope concentration in a balanced gas was made using the electron-vibrational band heads of CO molecules excited in HF discharge. Limits of detection of carbon concentrations appear to be $n^*10^{-6}$.

We used time-of-flight method to analyze transport properties of charge carrier which is produced by X-ray exposure. It is the research of charge transport and specific property of trap that is performed in direct digital x-ray image receptor. But the results shows us different measurement value of electron and charge drift mobility and it is difficult to precise analysis about charge transport properties and trap mechanism. We measured transit time and drift mobility of charge carriers using time-of-flight method to evaluate the correlation of a-Se thickness change and electric field. We made a testing glass with a-Se of 400 ${\mu}m$ thickness on coming glass using thermoevaporation method and built Au electrode with 300nm, $2{\varphi}$ on both sides of a-Se, As a result of this experiment, electron and hole transit time was each $229.17{\mu}s$ and $8.73{\mu}s$ at $10V/{\mu}m$ electric field and Drift mobility was each $0.00174 cm^{2}/V{\cdot}s$, $0.04584cm^{2}/V{\cdot}s$.

Simultaneous measurements of trace platinum and rhodium, based on catalytic reduction of protons by the adsorbed Pt-formazone and Rh-formaldehyde complexes formed in formaldehyde-hydrazine-sulfuric acid medium, were demonstrated. The conditions for the measurements of Pt and Rh both present at trace levels (>10-10 M) were 0.004% (w/v) formaldehyde-0.0012% (w/v) hydrazine-0.75 M sulfuric acid. In this medium method detection limits are 7.3${\times}$10-11 M Pt and 3.2${\times}$10-11 M Rh. And dynamic ranges are 5${\times}$10-10~6${\times}$10-8 M and 1${\times}$10-10∼2${\times}$10-8 M for platinum and rhodium respectively. In the linear dynamic ranges, Rh and Ir interfere platinum in the presence of only 10 and 100 times that of Pt respectively. There are no interferences from other platinum group metal ions for rhodium even in the presence of a 500-fold excess of Ir(IV), a hundredfold excess of platinum.

A reverse-phase HPLC method with detection by mass spectrometry is described for the simultaneous determination of doxifluridine and its two active metabolites, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and 5-fluorouridine (5-FUrd), in beagle dog plasma. The optimal chromatographic separation was achieved on a Waters $Xterra^{(R)}$ $C_{18}$ column ($4.6{\times}250\;mm$ i.d., $5\;{\mu}m$ particle size) with a mobile phase of 0.1% formic acid in a mixture of 99% methanol and purified water (99:1, v/v). The developed method was validated in beagle dog plasma with a lowest limit of quantification of $0.05\;{\mu}g/mL$ for both doxifluridine and 5-FU, and $0.2\;{\mu}g/mL$ for 5-FUrd. Doxifluridine and its two metabolites were stable under the analysis conditions, and intra- and inter-day accuracies exceeded 92.87%, with a precision variability ${\leq}11.34%$ for each analyte. Additionally, the method for quantifying doxifluridine and its two metabolites, 5-FU and 5-FUrd, in beagle dog plasma was applied successfully to the analysis of pharmacokinetic samples.
