The objective of present study was to develop a simultaneous determination method of 5 medical compounds, including beclomethasone, dexamethasone, prednisolone, ketoprofen, phenylbutazone in foods, using LC-MS/MS. To optimize MS analytical condition of 5 compounds, each parameter was established by MRM mode. The chromatographic separation was achieved on a C18 column successfully, with a mobile phase made up of A (0.1% formic acid) and B (0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile), at a flow rate of 0.3 mL/min for 17 min with a gradient elution. LOD and LOQ of 5 compounds were in the range of 0.40~4.60 ng/mL and 0.81~11.46 ng/mL, respectively. As a result of analyzing the three concentrations of the standard mixture added to blank samples, the results showed that the mean recovery rate of 5 compounds was in the range of 81.52~103.83%, and RSD (%) of Intra- and Inter-day assay were 0.52-10.45. Since relatively fine selectivity, accuracy and reproducibility were shown in this qualified experimental method, it could be utilized efficiently to investigating those 5 compounds to see if it is added to food products illegally.

The purpose of this study was to suggest the possibility of utilizing the wildflower pasture for promoting public interest. Growth characteristics, botanical composition, fauna distribution on wildflower pastures were observed. The experimental design included two treatments: native wildflower pasture(NWP, turf grasses 6 species + native wildflower 11 species) and introduced wildflower pasture(lWP, turf grasses 6 species + introduced wildflower 9 species). The field trials were carried out on the experimental pasture plots at Chungnam National University from 1997 to 2000. The results obtained are as follows: 1. The flowering of wildflower was maintained continuously from May to September, and the colors of wildflowers; varied seasonally during this period. With native flowers, however, Hemerocallis fulva, Belamcanda chinenis and Aster koraiensisi showed problems in lately germination and early establishment. Meanwhile, Introduced wildflower showed not only excellent germination and early establishment compared to native flowers species but also maintained brighter colors. But Coreopsis tinctoria, Achillea mi/lefolium and Rudbeckia bicolor had colonized at a higher height or possessed stronger rhizome. 2. The appropriate species of turf grass which maintained continuous seasonal distribution are thought to be tall fescue, perennial ryegrass. Kentucky bluegrass in NWP and IWP. 3. Botanical composition of wild flower in NWP was arranged in the order of Achillea sibirica > Lotus corniculatus var. Japonicus > Dianthus chinensis > Plantago asiatica > Taraxacum pla~ycarpum > Viola mandshurica > Aster koraiensis > Vicia tetasperma > Lespedeza stipulacea > Hemerocallis fulva, respectively. The highest seasonal distribution of native wildflower, Achillea sibirica was in spring and summer, Lotus corniculatus var. Japonicus was in autumn. Botanical composition of wild flower in IWP was arranged in the order of Achillea millefolium Coreopsis tinctoria > Silene armeria > Coreopsis lanceolata > Rudbeckia bicolor > Sanguisorba oficinalis > Centaurea cyanus > Chrysanthemum leucanthemum > Dianthus petraeus, respectively. The highest seasonal distribution of introduced wildflower, Silene armeria was in spring, Achillea millefolium was in summer, and Coreopsis tinctoria was in autumn.

상수도 관망은 수원에서 수요절점까지 물을 안정적으로 공급하는 것을 목표로 한다. 상수도 관망의 최적설계는 수리학적 제한조건 (절점의 수압, 관로의 유속)을 만족하는 범위에서 비용을 최소화하는 설계안을 얻는 것으로 Savic and Walters (1997)는 유전 알고리즘 (Genetic Algorithms, Holland 1975)을 적용한 상수도 관망 설계 프로그램인 GANET를 제안하였고, Maier et al. (1996)은 개미군집알고리즘 (Ant Colony Optimization Algorithm, Dorigo et al. 1996)을 상수도 관망 최적설계에 적용한 후 그 결과가 유전 알고리즘에 비해 우수함을 증명하는 등 상수도 관망 최적설계에 관한 연구가 활발히 진행되어 오고 있다. 유전알고리즘은 선택, 교차, 돌연변이의 반복계산 과정을 통하여 최적해를 찾는 최적화 기법이다. 이 과정에서 결정변수는 유전자 (Gene)의 집합으로 표현되며, 염색체 (Chromosome) 내에서 근접한 유전 인자들은 일종의 Building Block을 형성하게 된다. Building Block은 좋은 해를 갖는 유전 인자를 높은 확률로 보관하여 지역해에 빠질 가능성을 줄이는 반면, 유전형 (Genotype)이 표현형 (Phenotype)을 충분히 모방하여 표현하지 못한 경우 오히려 최적해의 탐색을 방해할 수 있다는 한계점을 갖는다. 유전 알고리즘을 상수도 관망 최적설계에 적용하였을 때에도 이 한계점은 여실히 드러난다. 관로의 관경을 결정변수로 설정한 후 유전형으로 표현하였을 때, 관망도 상에서 근접하지 않은 두 관로가 염색체 내에서 연속으로 나열된다면 두 관로 간의 연관성이 실제보다 크게 고려되기 때문이다. 한편, 하모니써치 (Harmony Search, Geem et al. 2001) 알고리즘은 즉흥 연주 (Improvisation)를 통해 최상의 화음을 만들어내는 현상으로부터 착안하여 만들어진 최적화기법으로 연산 기법은 무작위선택, 기억회상, 피치조정 등으로 구성되어 있으며, 결정변수에 해당하는 연주자가 독립적으로 행동하며 해를 탐색한다는 점에서 유전알고리즘과 큰 차이를 갖는다. 본 연구에서는 유전알고리즘의 Building Block에 의해 발생하는 오류를 개선하고자, 상수도 관망 최적설계 연구에 많이 사용되는 Hanoi 관망 (Fujiwara and Khang 1990) 관로의 정렬 순서를 여러 가지 기준으로 설정하여 관망데이터를 구축한 후 하모니써치와 유전 알고리즘을 적용하여 최적화를 수행하였고 그 결과를 비교하였다. 그 결과 유전 알고리즘과 달리 하모니써치 알고리즘의 경우, 관로의 나열 순서와 상관없이 우수한 최적해 탐색 결과를 보이는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

In vitro anaerobic incubations of timothy (Phleum pretense L.) forage with bovine rumen fluid were conducted at 39℃ for 0, 3, 6, 9, 24, and 36 h in three trials to examine the biohy- drogenation of linolenic (C18:3) and linoleic acids (C18:2) and their bypass from the rumen. The objectives of the first trial was to study the effect of growth stage (stem elongation, early heading, late heading, and early flowering) and N-fertilization (0 and 120 kg N ha－1) on in vitro biohydrogenation of C18:2 and C18:3. The hydrogenable fraction, the effective disappearance and the bypass of C18:2 and C18:3 were high in timothy harvested at stem elongation, and decr- ease linearly with maturity. The N-fertilization increased the hydrogenable fraction of C18:3, the effective disappearance and the bypass of C18:2 and C18:3. However, the rate of disappearance of C18:2 and C18:3 were not affected by maturity and N-fertilization (P>0.1). In trial 2, the effect of timothy conservation method on in vitro C18:2 and C18:3 biohydrogenation was determined. Silage had the highest effective disappearance of C18:2 and C18:3, and grass hay had lowest one. The amounts of C18:2 and C18:3 biohydrogenated were higher in haylage and silage than in grass hay. Comparative to haylage timothy, the bypass of C18:3 was higher in fresh grass, wilted grass and grass hay. The bypass of C18:2 was higher in fresh grass and silage in comparison to grass hay and haylage. In trial 3, the effects of formic acid and Lactobacillus plantarum inoculum addition to timothy haylage and silage on C18:2 and C18:3 disappearance and bypass were studied. Haylage and silage additives had no effect (P>0.1) on effective disappearance and bypass of C18:2 and C18:3. The addition of formic acid increased the rate of biohydrogenation of C18:3 in haylage and silage, but it decreased the hydrogenable fraction of C18:2 in silage. The results of these three incubation trials show that the hydrogenable fraction and the bypass of C18:2 and C18:3 in timothy decreased with maturity and increased with N-fertilization. Higher amount of C18:2 and C18:3 were biohydrogenated in haylage and silage than in grass hay, and C18:3 ruminal disappearance was higher in fresh grass, wilted grass and grass hay than in haylage.

This research was conducted to present reference data to be used as newly reclaimed tidal land management. We investigated vegetation succession at 4 reclaimed/reclaiming project areas and discussed relationship with soil and vegetation trhrough investigation and analysis soil chemical characteristics at 2 areas. 14 families 58 kinds were investigated. Vegetation were variou at Dea-Ho conservation polt and Seok-Mun National Industrial Area which are maintaining naturally. Vegetation were simple at Hong-Bo and Dongjin and MinKyong river areas which effected sea water. Common species that were investigated at 9 sites were Suaeda asparagoides, Aster tripolium, Phragmites australis, Suaeda maritima, Suaeda japonica, Carex scabrifolis. As soil desalinization progressing, soil classified at first saline-soidc soil, the nest saline soil and then normal soil. Chenopodiaceae revealed at about 30 dS/m of soil ECe and existed to 10 dS/m of soil ECe. At about 20 dS/m of soil ECe. Aster tripolium, Calamagrostis epigeios, and Sonchus brachyotus revealed and then non-halophytes and common plants at inland revealed at low soil ECe of about 10 dS/m. However it was not to progress vegetation sucdession and soil desalinization at the same time, owing to input of seeds or plants ect from out-ecosystem. So for promotion of vegetation at newly reclaimed tidal land, we proposed that it was very effective to plant artificially halophytes or suitable species through soil test.
