We study metamorphism of metasedimetary rocks and origin and evolution of leucogranite form Samcheok area, northeastern Yeongnam massif, South Korea. Metamorphic rocks in this area are composed of metasedimentary migmatite, biotite granitic gneiss and leucogranite. Metasedimentary rocks, which refer to major element feature of siliclastic sediment, are divided into two metamorphic zones based on mineral assemblages, garnet and sillimanite zones. According to petrogenetic grid of mineral assemblages, metamorhpic P-T conditions are $740{\sim}800^{\circ}C$ at $4.8{\sim}5.8\;kbar$ in the garnet zone and $640-760^{\circ}C$ at 2.5-4.5kbar in sillimanite zone. The leucogranite (Imwon leucogranite) is peraluminous granite which has high alumina index (A/CNK=1.31-1.93) and positive discriminant factor value (DF > 0). Thus, leucogranite is S-type granite generated from metasedimentary rocks. Major and trace element diagram ($R_1-R_2$ diagram and Rb vs. Y+Nb etc.) show collisional environment such as syn-collisional or volcanic arc granite. Because Rb/sr ratio (1.8-22.9) of leucogranites is higher than Sr/Ba ratio (0.21-0.79), leucogranite would be derived from muscovite dehydrate melting in metasedimentary rocks. Leucogranites have lower concentration of LREE and Eu and similar that of HREE relative to metasedimentary rocks. To examine difference of REEs between leucogranites and metasedimentary rocks, we perform modeling using volume percentage of a leucogranite and a metasedimenatry rock from study area and REE data of minerals from rhyolite (Nash and Crecraft, 1985) and melanosome of migmatite (Bea et al., 1994). Resultants of modeling indicate that LREE and HREE are controlled by monazites and garnet, respectively, although zircon is estimated HREE dominant in some leucogranite without garnet. Because there are many inclusions of accessary phases such as monazite and zircon in biotites from metasedimentary rocks. leucogranitic magma was mainly derived from muscovite-breakdown in metasedimenary rocks. Leucogranites can be subdivided into two types in compliance with Eu anomaly of chondrite nomalized REE pattern; the one of negative Eu anomaly is type I and the other is type II. Leucogranites have lower Eu concetnrations than that of metasedimenary rocks and similar that of both type. REE modeling suggest that this difference of Eu value is due to that of components of feldspars in both leucogranite and metasedimentary rock. The tendency of major ($K_2O$ and $Na_2O$) and face elements (Eu, Rb, Sr and Ba) of leucogranites also indicate that source magma of these two types was developed by anatexis experienced strong fractionation of alkali-feldspar. Conclusionally, leucogranites in this area are products of melts which was generated by muscovite-breakdown of metasedimenary rock in environment of continetal collision during high temperature/pressure metamorphism and then was fractionated and crystallized after extraction from source rock.

This study was conducted to analyze the correlation between changes in white matter and homocysteine concentration through brain computed tomography of healthy 50-75 year old subjects without stroke or dementia history. We studied 722 out of 900 patients who underwent health screening at one hospital from 2016 to 2017. Based on the medical records, retrospective studies were conducted and analyzed using SPSS. A chi-square test, T-test and univariate logistic regression analysis were used for analysis. After the subjects were divided into the group with and without white matter changes, the population characteristics were analyzed. The mean age, homocysteine concentration and prevalence of hypertension and diabetes were higher and the duration of education was shorter in the group with white matter changes. In the group with white matter changes, the population increased as homocysteine concentration increased. When the odds ratio was compared based on the lowest group (Q1), age [p<0.001], hypertension [p<0.001] and hyperhomocysteinemia [p=0.021] were risk factors for white matter changes. We also identified modifiable risk factors such as hypertension and hyperhomocysteinemia to prevent complications of white matter changes. However, there has been no report of risk for the each causes of hyperhomocysteinemia and relationship between white matter changes and homocysteine concentration in Koreans. Therefore, large scale prospective studies are needed to better understand this topic.

Objectives : The significance of leukoaraiosis on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is uncertain, but it is often seen with vascular risk factors or in the context of cognitive impairment. We aimed to investigate the effect of leukoaraiosis on the severity and course of delirium. Methods : Periventricular hyperintensity and deep white matter hyperintensity on brain MRI were rated in 42 patients with delirium by semiquantative visual rating scale. Correlations between their grades and the scores of Korean version of Delirium Rating Scale-Revised-98 (K-DRS-R-98) were analyzed, and the interaction effects between the groups according to the levels of leukoaraiosis and two evaluation points were also analyzed. Results : The grade of deep white matter hyperintensity in the occipital lobe was positively correlated with the scores on the total, severity items, cognitive items, and non-cognitive items of K-DRS-R-98. The cognitive items scores of K-DRS-R-98 in the low grade group of periventricular hyperintensity showed significantly steeper decrease than the high grade group. Conclusions : A difference in severity or recovery speed of delirium according to the level of leukoaraiosis may result from disruption in brain functional connectivity. Our results have a clinical implication in that the severity and course of delirium can be possibly predicted using the level of leukoaraiosis.

Orbicular granite gneisses occur as a xenolith within two-mica leucogranites, together with early Paleoproterozoic metasedimentary xenoliths, in Wangjeong-ri, Muju area. The whole-rock chemistries and SHRIMP zircon Pb/U ages of the leucogranites indicate that they are S-type granitoids formed in the continental tectonic setting at $1875{\pm}75$ Ma. The SHRIMP age of monazites from the orbicular granite gneiss gives $1867{\pm}4$ Ma as a metamorphic age which is similar to the intrusion age of the two-mica leucogranite within the error range. The similar ages between zircons and monazites represent that the orbicular granite gneisses formed by metamorphism during the intrusion of the two-mica leucogranite; the metasedimetary xenoliths which sank within the parent magma of leucogranites were metamorphosed into orbicular granite gneisses by thermal metamorphism ($650-740^{\circ}C$, 4-6.5 kbar) due to the heat supplied from surrounding magma. During the thermal metamorphism, the core of orbicular granite gneiss mainly consisting of cordierite formed, and in some orbicular granitic gneisses, the leucocratic melt formed by melting of quartz and plagioclase in the core, squeezed out from core and crystallized around the core forming outer rim. The hydrothermal fluid at the late stage of magma differentiation penetrated into the orbicular granite gneisses resulting pinitization of cordierite into chlorite and sericite. As Muju orbicula granite gneiss was formed from sedimentary rocks, it is more appropriate to be called Muju orbicula granitic gneiss.

The influence of the storage temperature and time after slaughter on the thermal denaturation of PSE porcine muscle protein was studied by differential scanning calorimetry and by measuring the solubility of the sarcoplasmic proteins. In the DSC therodiagram a decrease of the endotherm enthalpy of the myosin plus sarcoplasmic proteins in PSE muscle could be observed with an increase in the storage temperature and time of post mortem. Storage temperature at $20^{\circ}C$ during the first four hours of post mortem resulted in relatively slight denaturation of myosin plus sarcoplasmic proteins in PSE muscle. Storage temperature above $25^{\circ}C$ caused to increase the denaturation of muscle proteins. The minimal drip loss in PSE muscle could be observed, when the muscle was cooled to $2^{\circ}C$ as quickly as possible post mortem. However, when stored for several hours of post morte at a temperature between $32^{\circ}C-38^{\circ}C$, the drip loss reached the level established for PSE muscle. The paleness of PSE muscle could be prevented to some extent by rapid chill to $20^{\circ}C$ post mortem. The more the muscle proteins in the PSE muscle become denatured during the early storage period of post mortem, the more the drip loss increases. With the increase in the denaturation of myosin plus sarcoplasmic proteins in PSE muscle with regard to temperature of post mortem, there was a corresponding decrease in the solubility of the sarcoplasmic proteins in PSE muscle.

The objective of this study is to investigate the optimum conditions of extracting collagen without chrome ion from the leather waste. The effect of temperature, pH, and the concentration of alkaline solution on the collagen extraction has been studied. The result indicated that the incipient denatured temperature of collagen measured by viscosity was $25^{\circ}C$ and the complete denatured temperature was $31.5^{\circ}C$. The optimum solubilization condition for temperature was between $15^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$, pH was 1.5, the concentration of alkaline solution was 3% of sodium hydroxide. The almost complete chrome ion separation was possible around the pH of 1.5. The separation efficiency of chrome ion from tannery waste was more than 99.5%. Extraction efficiency of crude protein from leather waste was about 89.5%. The hydroxyproline and collagen content in the extracted crude protein were 8.53% and 63.62%, respectively.

Pyeonghae Series, Giseong Series. Wonnam Series, Pyeonghae Unite gneiss, Hada leuco-granite gneiss are the Precambrian gneisses distributed in the north-eastern part of the Yeongnam massif. Even though there are no difference in lithologies between Pyeonghae and Wonnam Serieses. they have been regarded as different Serieses because of the presence of Giseong Series which has been considered meta-volcanics. However, field investigations reveal that the Giseong Series represents ductile shear zone having meta-volcanics-like appearances in some outcrops. The fact that both Pyeonghae and Wonnam Serieses experienced high grade metamorphism reaching upper amphibolite facies implies that any volcanics between these two Serieses should also occur as high-grade metamorphic rocks at present. The absence of Giseong Series as a low-grade meta-volcanics indicates the absence of logical base to distinguish Pyeonghae and Wonnam Serieses. Therefore, these two Serieses should be regarded as identical Series.
