허리 근육손상은 기대치 못한 상황에서 신체의 적절한 반응이 지연될 경우 근육 염좌와 같은 상해나 요통으로 연결된다. 이 연구는 척추 안정 운동 후 척추의 유연성과 척추 근육의 반응 속도를 만성 요통 환자와 정상인을 대상으로 비교 연구 하였다. 만성 요통 환자 군은 척추 안정 운동을 4주간 20회 시행하였으며 이와 비슷한 특성을 가진 대조군을 비교하였다. 신체 유연성은 환자가 앉은 자세에서 척추를 축으로 신체의 회전 정도를 측정하였다. 척추 반응 속도 측정은 환자가 선 자세에서 두 손으로 판을 들고있는 동안 정구공이 1.8 m (6.4 N)에서 낙하시 좌, 우측 척추 근육의 반응 속도를 Wavelet 분석으로 측정하였다. 연구 결과 척추 안정 운동을 행한 만성 요통 환자군의 신체 유연성과 척추 근육 반응 속도가 통계적으로 유의하게 증가하였다. 척추 유연성은 만성 요통 환자 군에서 131.0cm에서 척추안정 운동후 144.1cm으로 증가하였다 (p<0.05). 척추 근육 반응 속도는 척추 안정 운동을 행한 만성 요통 환자 군에서 90.00msec에서 68.55msec로 (p<0.05), 정상 군에서는 86.28msec에서 75.64msec로 (p>0.05) 단축되었다. 척추 안정 운동은 근, 신경 조직의 반응속도를 증가시키며 특히 만성 요통 환자에서 척추의 안정성을 회복시킨다. 특히 척추의 안정성 증가는 기대치 못한 상황에서 선체의 적절한 반응의 속도를 회복시키며 결과적으로 허리 손상을 예방 할 수 있다. 물리치료학에서 근 골격 신경계의 반응 속도측정을 위한 연구로 Wavelet 분석과 같은 첨단장비를 통한 운동 치료의 질에 관한 연구의 도입이 필요하다. 또한 구체적인 치료적 운동결과의 측정을 통해 물리 치료의 효과성과 효율성을 높이기 위한 생체 의학적 연구가 요망된다.

Electrophysiological recordings of antennal responses to common plant volatile chemicals in the rice brown planthopper, Niloparuota lugens (Homoptera: Delphasidae}, were examined. Volatile plant chemicals were generally credited with a major role In host plant location for food or egg laying by many insects feeding on plants as adults and/or as larvae. An mitial examination of extracellular responses has been conducted. Acton potentials recorded from the plaque organs were initially positive-going, biphaslc spikes and the background firing rate of the cells recorded ranged from 1 ~22 impulses/sec. A wide range of responses to changes in concentration of the test chemical was observed. The commonest response was a relatively small increase in exitation with increasing concentration beween 1 J.lg and 100).\g on the filter paper in syringe. Adtivity either peaked at 100 $\mug$ and remained virtually saturated at 1000 f19 or tended to decrease at the highest concentration.

$\alpha$-Cyclodextrin glucanotransferase excreted from a newly isolated Geobacillus thermosacchalytycus was purified through the ultrafiltraion, hydrophobic Sepharose CD-4B affinity chromatography, and gel filtration on Sephadex G-75, respectively. The molecular weight of the purified CGTase was 69 kDa and its N-terminal amino acid sequence was determined to be Asn-Leu-Asn-Lys-Val-Asn-Phe-Val-Ser-Asp-Val-Val-Val-Gln-Ile. The optimum pH and temperature were pH 6.0 and$ 60^{\circ}C$, respectively, and stably at the pH range of 6.0-8.0 and $60^{\circ}C$ in the presence of $Ca^{++}$. The excreted CGTase from the thermophilic G. thermosacchalytycus was $\alpha$-type showing a high coupling activity for the transglycosylation on various glucosides. The coupling reaction was carried out according to the random ternary complex mechanism.m.

The Folin-Ciocalteu (F-C) reagent has been extensively used for quantifying total phenolic contents in many different types of food materials. Since several different procedures of the assay methods using the F-C reagent have been applied, we investigated changes in reactivity of various phenolic compounds with the F-C reagent under three different assay conditions and factors affecting reactivity. Among 10 standard compounds tested, compounds with high hydroxyl density (number of -OH/molecular weight) showed a largely different response according to addition sequence of the F-C reagent or $Na_2CO_3$. Preincubation in $Na_2CO_3$ significantly reduced the reactivity of the phenolic compounds bearing galloyl moiety (e.g. gallic acid, tannic acid, and epigallocatechin-3-gallate) with the F-C reagent, while monophenol compounds including ferulic acid and sinapinic acid were more stable as compared to diphenols. There was little change in response to the F-C reagent of all phenolic compounds incubated in acidic pH; their reactivity except ferulic acid was reduced significantly when incubated in neutral or alkaline pH. Changes in reactivity of gallic acid incubated in $Na_2CO_3$ or neutral/alkaline pH conditions were the most prominent. $H_2O_2$ generated from phenolic compounds did not affect the reaction with the F-C reagents. The present results suggest that reactivity of different phenolic compounds with F-C reagent was affected considerably by different procedures of the assay, and the total phenolic contents could be fluctuated according to standard compounds and assay scheme.

To delineate the mechanisms of vasoconstriction and vasodilation in cerebral arteries the effects of some vasoconstrictors and calcium antagonists on the basilar artery (BA) and arterial circle of Willis (WC) were examined and also the role of endothelium in the action of these drugs was investigated in pigs, cats and rabbits. In pig cerebral arteries, dose-dependent contractile responses were elicited by KCI, histamine, 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and angiotensin, but norepinephrine (NE), phenylephrine (PE) and epinephrine (EP) elicited dose-dependent contractions only under pretreatment with propranolol 10-6 M. The magnitudes of maximal contractile effects of these drugs were different from each other, and 5-H~ was the largest and angiotensin the smallest. Some calcium antagonists dose-dependently inhibited KCI (35 mM)-induced contraction and the order of potency in inhibiting the contraction was nifedipine > > diltiazem > flunarizine > oxybutynin > isosorbide dinitrate (ISDN) > glyceryl trinitrate. 5-HT (10-6 M)-induced contraction was dosedependently inhibited by nifedipine but slightly inhibited by diltiazem and ISDN. In rings with intact endothelium, KCI (35 mM)-induced contraction was not affected by acetylcholine (ACh) but $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$ (lO-SM)-induced contraction was dose-dependently relaxed by ACh and adenosine. This endothelium-dependent relaxation was not affected by nifedipine (l0-6M)-pretreatment but markedly inhibited by methylene blue (50,uM)-pretreatment. In the porcine arterial rings without endothelium, ACh had no effect or even contracted the $PGF_{2{\alpha}}-induced$ contraction. However, the dosedependent relaxing effect of ACh appeared when the deendothelized porcine ring and rabbit thoracic aorta with intact endotheli urn were simultaneously suspended into a bath and this relaxing effect was also inhibited by methylene blue-pretreatment. In cat cerebral arteries, 5-HT and NE elicited dose-dependent contractile responses and ACh also produced dose-dependent contraction regardless of the existence of endothelium. ACh-induced contraction was most prominent. 5-HT (IO-SM)induced contraction was not relaxed but contracted additionally by ACh even in the intact endothelial ring. In rabbit cerebral arteries, 5-HT and NE elicited dose-dependent contractile responses and 5-HT-induced contraction was more prominent. In the intact endothelial preparations, 5-HT (lO-s M)-induced contraction was markedly relaxed by the addition of ACh( IO-SM) and this endothelium-dependent relaxing effect was inhibited by atropine (l0-7M)-pretreatment but notaffected by diltiazem (l0-6M)-pretreatment. These results suggest that ACh elicits endotheliumdependent relaxing effect mediated by muscarinic receptors in cerebral arteries of pig and rabbit, and that ACh acts as vasoconstrictor in cat cerebral artery.

오염된 지하수 정화에 있어 반응벽체(Permeable Reactive Barriers, PRBs)를 이용한 정화기법은 최근 가장 큰 관심을 모으고 있는 기술이다. 반응벽체의 적용에 있어 가장 중요한 사항은 오염물질의 특성을 고려하여 적절한 반응성을 가지는 충진물질을 선택하는 일이다. 지금까지 연구된 반응물질 중 제올라이트는 취득이 용이하고 가격이 저렴하여, 암모늄이나 중금속과 같은 양이온성 오염물질의 정화에 그 적용성을 인정받아왔다. 하지만 표면에 음전하를 띠는 제올라이트의 특성 때문에, 지하수내에서 음이온의 형태로 존재하는 Cr(VI) 등에는 반응성이 없는 것으로 알려져 왔다. 이에 본 연구에서는 제올라이트에 영가철을 결합한 ZanF란 물질을 개발하여 양이온성 중금속의 하나인 납과 음이온성 중금속의 하나인 Cr(VI)을 동시 제거하는 실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과 ZanF는 초기농도 2-15mmol를 가지는 납 오염용액에 대해 90% 이상의 제거율을 보였으며, 초기농도 0.1 mmol을 가지는 Cr(VI) 오염용액의 농도를 5시간 내에 검출한계 이하로 떨어뜨리는 탁월한 효과를 보였다. 실험결과를 토대로 ZanF는 납과 Cr(VI)으로 동시에 오염된 지하수 정화에 효과적으로 사용될 수 있으리라 기대된다.

The compositional and structural properties of alkali metal ion exchanged Y-zeolites have been investigated by la number of analytical techniques and their catalytic activities were tested for NOx reduction in combination with a non-thermal plasma. The NOx conversion data for LiY, NaY, KY and CsY were measured by chemiluminiscent NOx meter in the temperature range of 100 to $350^{\circ}C$. The initial activities of the catalyst at $150^{\circ}C$ increased in the order LiY < KY < NaY < CsY in alkali series. The activity of CsY and NaY were increased and showed maximum at $200^{\circ}C$ and then decreased in the plasma reactor, as the temperature increased. The activity of KY maintained same by $200^{\circ}C$ and then decreased, whereas the activity of LiY decreased with the increasing temperature. The CsY catalyst, which showed the highest activity in alkali metal series, exhibits a NOx conversion efficiency of $80\%$ between $170{\~}220^{\circ}C$.

Using the milled, blast infected leaves (BIL) as an inoculum source on the screening for the resistance to blast of rice plant was a simple and useful technique. The temperature with high (25^\circ C\sim 35^\circ C) and low (15^\circ C\sim 28^\circ C) and the water stressed or not, was conditioned of to the inoculation with the BIL to the test varieties in seedling stage. In low temperature, most of the varieties were more infected with blast, however the Indica-Japonica hybrids were more infected in high temperature conditions. The water stressed was more infected with blast than the not stressed. The interaction of variety with water stress was not so much as that of variety with temperature. Resistant reaction to blast (BIL) was not affected by the temperature and water stress, but the moderately resistant or susceptible one was much affected by them. Inoculum of BIL was virulent to the newly bred Indica-Japonica hybrid cultivars such as Tongil, Nopung, etc, but not virulent to the Japonica cultivars such as Nongbaek, Jinheung, etc. The discrete, mixed or variable lesions were observed mainly in the moderately resistant or susceptible cultivars such as Kanto 51, Yashiromochi, Ishikari-shiroke, etc.
