We empolyed gel filtraction, polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, amino acid autoanalyzer, thin layer chromatography for determining protein and lipid composition in walnut. The walnut contained 22.18% of crude protein and 64.23% of crude lipid. Glutamic acid (38.60%) was the major amino acid in soluble protein, followed by arginine and aspartic acid. The sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis showed 12 band in soluble protein of walnut, and collection rate of main protein fraction purified by Sephadex G-150 was 60.67%. The molecular weight for the main protein was estimated to be 43,000. The lipid fraction obtained by silicic acid column chromatography were mainly composed of about 93.05% neutral lipid, whereas compound lipid was only 7.0% level. Among the neutral lipid by thin layer chromatography, triglyceride was 82.05%, sterol ester and free fatty acid were 3.86% and 4.80%, repectively. The predominant fatty acids of total and neutral lipids were linoleic acid $(64.48{\sim}69.98%)$ and oleic acid $(13.89{\sim}15.36%)$. The major fatty acids of triglyceride separated from neutral lipid were linolenic acid (69.98%).

Primary fluorescence characteristics of ten standard solutions of organophosphates, sea water, and water from agricultural land were investigated by fluorescence contour. All the standard solutions of organophosphates has shown characteristics countours. Their emission maxima were shown between 296 nm and 437 nm. According to their numbers of emission maxima on the fluorescence contours, the organophosphates can be categorized in two different groups. Ateric and Diazinon are the first group with two emission maxima. DDVP with other seven standard organophosphates belong to the second group. The second group has two subgroups. One is characterized by the similar emission and excitation maxima, which are 310 nm and 280 nm, respectively. Those are DDVP, Hinosan, Kitazin, Locsion, Meta. The other sub-group shows quite different emission and excitation maxima from the first sub-group. They are Monopho, Thaconyl and Gropho and their emisson maxima were in far longer (437 nm) or shorter wavelength (296 nm). From agricutural samples, one of the investigated organophosphates was detetected by its characteristic retention time $(t_r=12min)$. HPIC-fluorescence data gave an additional parameter for differentiation between two organophosphates which has similar excitation and emission maxima.

A homonym could be disambiguated by anther words in the context such as nouns, predicates used with the homonym. This paper proposes a homonym disambiguation system based on statistical semantic information which is extracted from definitions in dictionary. The semantic information consists of nouns and predicates that are used with the homonym in definitions. In order to extract accurate semantic information, definitions are used with the homonym in definitions. In order to extract accurate semantic information, definitions are classified into two types. One has hyponym-hypernym relation between title word and head word (homonym) in definition. The hyponym-hypernym relation is one level semantic hierarchy and can be extended to deeper levels in order to overcome the problem of data sparseness. The other is the case that the homonym is used in the middle of definition. The system considers nouns and predicates simultaneously to disambiguate the homonym. Nine homonyms are examined in order to determine the weight of nouns and predicates which affect accrutacy of homonym disambiguation. From experiments using training corpus(definitions in dictionary), the average accruracy of homonym disamguation is 96.11% when the weight is 0.9 and 0.1 for noun and verb respectively. And another experiment to meaure the generality of the homonym disambiguation system results in the 80.73% average accuracy to 1,796 untraining sentences from Korean Information Base I and ETRI corpus.

The composition of glycolipid, phospholipid and fatty acid of brown rice, milled rice and bran were studied for four varieties of rice such as Nampung, Milyang # 23, Whasung and Jinhung. The content of esterified steryl glycosides(ESG) in glycolipids was the highest in the brown rice, milled rice and bran. Monogalactosyl diglycerides(MGDG) and steryl glycosides(SG) were the second highest. Of the phospholipids, phosphatidyl cholines(PC) + phosphatidyl serines(PS) were the next. Fatty acid composition of glycolipids were different from total lipids and neutral lipids in brown rice and milled rice. Palmitic acid content was very high and oleic acid content was low in glycolipids. The major fatty acid components of phospholipids in brown and milled rice were also palmitic, linoleic and oleic acid. In the bran, the major fatty acid classes were different from those of milled rice.

The comopositon of lipids extracted from corn embryo with various solvents were analyzed. The solvents for the extraction were benzene(BZ), n-hexane(HX), pet. ether(PE), trichlorethylene (TE), chloroform-methoanol(2:1, v/v) (CM), dichlormethane - methanol(2:1, v/v)(DM) and hexanediethyl ether(5:1, v/v)(HD). The lipids were than fractinated by silicis acid column chromatography(SACC) into three lipid fractions. The Neutral lipid fractons were further separated by thin layer chromatography(TLC) and the individual lipid spots were quantitatived by TLC scanner. And then the fatty acid compositions of total lipids and neutral lipids were determined by gas chromatography(GC). Crude oil contents of corn embryo were most efficient by using DM, CM and neutral lipid was extracted much HX, BZ, HD systems than did PE, DM, DM an CM were most efficient solvent systems for extracting glycolipid and phospholipid. The major component of the neutral lipid fractions was found to be triglyceride, and it was superior DM to PE. Linoleic acid was the predominant fatty acid in the total lipids, and it was most efficient with BZ and TE. The major fatty acid in neutral lipids was also linoleic acid and it was superior BZ to PE, CM, HD and oleic acid was similar to seven solvents and palmitic acid was found much superior in using CM.

This study was carried out to determine the antioxidative and antigenotoxic effects of buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench) sprout using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical donating method and micronucleus test. Buckwheat sprout were extracted with 70% ethanol and then further fractionated to n-hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate (EtOAc), butanol and water. Among the five fractions, the EtOAc fraction showed the highest electron donating activity ($RC_{50}$ 26.1 ${\mu}g/mL$). The effects of buckwheat sprout extracts on the frequencies of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes (MNPCEs) induced by MNNG (N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine) were investigated in the bone marrow. 10, 20, 40 and 80 mg/kg of each extract were administered to animals immediately after injection of MNNG and the exposure time was 36 hrs. Inhibition effects of buckwheat sprout ethanol extract were 23.4%, 40.6%, 56.3% and 73.4%, respectively. When the fraction of hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, butanol and water from 70% ethanol extract were treated with concentration of 80 mg/kg, the suppression rates of the MNPCE were 64.1, 67.9, 75.8, 74.2 and 63.3%, respectively.

In this paper, we propose the face recognition system using HNMA(Hippocampal Neuron Modeling Algorithm) which can remodel the cerebral cortex and hippocampal neuron as a principle of a man's brain in engineering, then it can learn the feature-vector of the face images very fast and construct the optimized feature each image. The system is composed of two parts. One is feature-extraction and the other is teaming and recognition. In the feature extraction part, it can construct good-classified features applying PCA(Principal Component Analysis) and LDA(Linear Discriminants Analysis) in order. In the learning part, it cm table the features of the image data which are inputted according to the order of hippocampal neuron structure to reaction-pattern according to the adjustment of a good impression in the dentate gyrus region and remove the noise through the associate memory in the CA3 region. In the CA1 region receiving the information of the CA3, it can make long-term memory learned by neuron. Experiments confirm the each recognition rate, that are face changes, pose changes and low quality image. The experimental results show that we can compare a feature extraction and learning method proposed in this paper of any other methods, and we can confirm that the proposed method is superior to existing methods.

This study examined the effect of forest road construction on electronic conductivity(EC) and ion concentrations under different precipitation. They were torrential streams within three different watersheds with various forest road densities (watershed A : 8.82m/ha, watershed B: 2.32m/ha, and watershed C: control) in the Experimental Forest of Kangwon National University. The results were as follows: 1. EC of three watersheds did not show on difference in precipitation, but it was high in case of long interval rainfall time period. EC of watershed A and B were higher than that of watershed C. 2. Concentrations of cation was about 2 times higher than those of anion. Average concentrations of $N^+$ and $Ca^{2+}$ showed maximum and minimum respectively, and $SO_4{^{2-}}$ was 3.7 times higher than $Cl^-$. 3. Precipitation and discharge had no effect on ion concentrations, but watershed A and B were higher in concentrations of cation than watershed C.

This study has been carried out to estimate aboveground and soil carbon contents in an average 39-year-old Quercus mongolica and 40-year-old Quercus variabilis stands in Chungju, Chungbuk. Ten sample trees were cut in each forest and soil samples were collected. Aboveground carbon content was estimated by the equation model $Wt=aD^b$ where Wt is oven-dry weight in kg and D is DBH in cm. Total aboveground carbon content was 48.85tonC/ha in Quercus mongolica stand and 57.49tonC/ha in Quercus variabilis stand. The proportion of each tree component to total aboveground carbon content was high in order of bolewood, branches, bolebark, and leaves in the two forests. Aboveground net primary production was estimated at 5.88tonC/ha in Quercus mongolica stand and 5.12tonC/ha in Quercus variabilis stand. Soil carbon content was 67.0tonC/ha in Quercus mongolica stand, 67.8tonC/ha in Quercus variabilis stand, and 54.7tonC/ha in Pinus densiflora stand. There was no significant difference in soil carbon content among the three forests.

Acetolactate Synthase (ALS) was partially purified from the yeast and its basic biochemical studies were carried out. Yeast was grown in the minimum media containing 0.5% glucose, 51 mM $K_2HPO_4$, 22 mM $KH_2PO_4$, 8 mM $(NH_4)2SO_4,\;0.4\;m M\;MgSO_4$ for 18 hours at 37 $^{\circ}C$. The cell was ruptured in the buffer (20 mM phosphate buffer pH 7.0, 0.1 mM TPP, 0.5 mM DTT, 1 ${\mu}M$ FAD, and 1 mM MgCl_2$) following an overnight suspension. The supernatant fraction was collected from $10,000{\times}g$ and the enzyme was further purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE-Sephacel chromatography and leucine-agarose chromatography. The enzyme activity was measured under the various conditions by the function of protein concentration, time, temperature, pH, and substrate. The optimum temperature was found to be 50$^{\circ}C$, optimum pH 8.0∼8.5. The kinetic parameters, $K_m\;and\;V_{max}$ were 8.4 mM and 17.9 nmol/mg/min respectively. Stability of the enzyme was studied with ethylene glycol and glycerol added to the enzyme solution. Both ethylene glycol and glycerol improved the enzyme stability up to 50%. The study of feedback inhibition showed that valine was a strong inhibitor while leucine was a weak inhibitor.
