Pollen germination viability is an essential factor to produce seeds from pollination and fertilization, which are required to maintain plant generation. In this study, we tried to identify the effect of boric acid on pollen germination and tube grouch in non-transgenic and transgenic plants expressing monoclonal antibodies (anti-colorectal cancer mAb CO17-1A, anti-breast cancer mAb BR55, and anti-rabies virus mAb57). The pollen of non-transgenic plant was treated with different concentration of boric acid (0, 5, 10, 15, 20, $40{\mu}g/mL$) in germination buffer to investigate its effect on in vitro pollen germination. At $20{\mu}g/mL$ of boric acid, tile pollen germination rate was the highest (49.5%) compared to other concentrations. In general, the germination rate significantly increased 3-10 folds in boric acid ($20{\mu}g/mL$) treated group in non-transgenic and transgenic plants. Also, the pollen tube length increased in boric acid ($20{\mu}g/mL$) treated groups. In the treated group, the pollen tube length increased until 3 h boric acid treatment and decreased after the 3 h, indicating that the 3 h is the most appropriate incubation time period. Western blot analysis showed that the mAb transgene expression was more stable in leaf than pollen in transgenic plants. This study suggested that $20{\mu}g/mL$ of boric acid is ideal concentration to induce in vitro pollen germination of transgenic plants expressing therapeutic monoclonal antibodies, indicating stable pollination and fertilization in transgenic plants.

In this paper, a preventive transmission rate decision algorithm, called PTRD, is proposed for the transmission of live video over networks with dynamic bandwidth allocation capability. Frame analyzer predicts the bit-rates of future frames before encoding by analyzing the source information such as spatial variances and the degree of scene changes. By using the predicted bit-rates, transmission rate bounds are derived from the constraints of encoder and decoder buffers. To resolve the problem of renegotiation cost increment due to frequent renegotiations, the PTRD algorithm is presented to decide transmission rates considering the elapsed time after the recent renegotiation and the perceived video quality. From the simulation results, compared to the normalized LMS based method, PTRD is shown to achieve high channel utilization with low renegotiation cost and no delay violation.

Transgenic tobacco plants were produced by the transformation of ginseng CAB gene using Agrobacterium tumefaciens LBA4404. The presence of CAB gene in the second generation of transgenic tobacco plant was confirmed by genomic PCR. The photosynthetic ability of transgenic plants was higher than normal tobacco plants and the maximum photosynthetic point of transgenic and normal tobacco plants was 500 $\mu$mol m$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$ . The photosynthesis of C7, C11, 1, C14 cell lines was higher than normal plants at all the light intensities investigated. The photosynthesis of C2, C11, C14 cell lines in 90% dark condition was higher than normal plants. The chlorophyll contents of transgenic tobacco plants were almost same as normal plants. The % of dry weight, nicotine content, total sugar and nitrogen contents of harvested transgenic tobacco plant leaves were almost same as normal plants.

The principal objective of this study was to assess the possibility of transforming platycodin glycosides using various strains of probiotic bateria and edible fungi. Among the experimental microorganisms assess herein, Aspergillus niger KCTC 6909 evidenced the highest level of platycodin glycoside hydrolysis during fermentation. Particularly in cases in which the organism was incubated in the presence of rhamnose and platycodins. In order to produce the enzyme from Aspergillus niger effectively, various incubation conditions were assessd in order to determine the optimal conditions. The cytotoxicity on V79-4 (Chinese- hamster lung fibroblasts, normal cells) of platycodin was reduced significantly after conversion (concentration on $500{\mu}g/mL$, $1000{\mu}g/mL$); DPPH radical scavenging activity before conversion was 35.05%, and was 57.44% afterward. We noted significantly higher conversion activity inhibiting oxidative degradation. In conclusion, these results indicate that the proper combination of food microorganisms -and fermentation conditions can result in an increase in the glycoside hydrolysis of platycodin the resultant products of which reduce cytotoxicity- and increase anti-oxidant activity.

In fact, smoking is prohibited in elevators. It is morally wrong to smoke in elevators. In addition, smoking can be very fatal for our children and for women. In this paper, forensic evidence is submitted to court by people who smoke in elevators. Shots around the face of the person in the elevator extracted partially by scene change detection. Smokers is extracted that the white bar is at the mouth biter. People spouting smoke extraction will proceed in the future. It is extracted by using technology of color histogram, one of the scene change detection method. The extract is a much more accurate extraction ratio than the methods that do not use scene change detection.

본 논문은 시장상황별 주식시장의 제 현상이 상이하다는 점을 고려하여 한국주식시장에서 시장 상승기(bull market)와 시장 하락기(bear market)에 대한 주식수익률 분포의 특성을 파악하고, 음의 수익률충격에 대한 비대칭적 변동성과 시장이상현상들 중 하나인 요일효과를 시장 상황별로 실증분석하였다. 본 논문에 사용된 자료는 1990년 1월 3일부터 1997년 3월 31일 동안의 한국종합주가지수 및 자본금 규모별로 대형주지수, 중형주지수, 소형주지수의 명목수익률로 전환된 일별자료이다. 시장상황별 분석을 위하여 시장 상승기와 하락기에 따라 3기의 하위기간으로 구분하여 분석하였다. 분석에 사용된 모형은 EGARCH모형과 수정된 GARCH모형인 GJR모형이다. 분석결과 시장하락기인 하부기간1과 하부기간3에서 음의 수익률충격에 대한 비대칭적 변동성이 강하게 나타나지만 시장상승기인 2기간에는 비대칭적 변동성반응이 나타나지 않았다. 이는 주식시장이 상승국면일 때보다는 하락국면일 때 나쁜 뉴스에 대해 훨씬 민감하게 반응하는 결과이다. 또한 한국주식시장에서 월요일의 수익률이 시장하락기에 음의 수익률을 보이지만 통계적 유의성은 없었으며, 반면에 시장이 상승기인 하부기간2에서는 월요일과 수요일에 통계적 유의성이 매우 큰 양의 값을 나타냈다.

To study the signaling effect of growth hormone (GH) in vivo on animal physiology, transgenic mice containing GH Receptor (GHR) gene fused to metallothionein promoter were produced by DNA microinjection into one-cell stage embryos. Three founder mice were produced with transgenic mice with approximately 4~6 copies of GHR genes and transgene was transmitted into the progeny. The founder mice were mated with normal mice to produce F$_1$ mice, and intergation and transmission of transgene were checked by polymerase chain reaction and Southern blot methods. Transmission rate of GHR transgenic mice were 20~50% in F$_1$ generation and 50% in F$_2$ generation which means that some founder mice were mosaic and transgene in F$_1$ mice was transmitted to F$_2$ progeny with Mendelian ratio. Death rate of GHR transgenic mice after birth was about 10~30% in F$_1$ and F$_2$ progenies indicating that GHR gene may affect death of transgnenic progeny.

This study examines how labor unions change in the 21st centry and what is needed for successful transformation of Korean labor union. The study identifies four major driving forces of change in union's role. They are changes in industrial and occupational structures, utilization of information technology, labor substitution, and changing attitude of workers. The effects are decrease in union membership, shrinking coverage of bargaining, weakening voice mechanism, and representation. Thus, labor unions in the 21st centry transform themselves into service union, individual representation system, and worker participation model. Korean labor union, with its current reputation of militant unionism, needs to transform into above mentioned model. Two keys for the change are market competition and family unionism.

The study of coking technology to upgrade oil sand bitumen which is considered as alternative fuel was performed by using thermogravity analyzer and delayed coking reactor(600ml). To analyzed and compared coking characteristics of oil sand bitumen, the reactivities of oil sand bitumen were measured in the TGA. At the temperature conditions of $400{\sim}550^{\circ}C$ and the temperature rising velocity of $50^{\circ}C/min$. the termination time of coking reaction and conversion efficiencies increased with an increase of bed temperature. However the increase rate decreased over $450^{\circ}C$. So the coking reaction with oil sand bitumen might be over $450^{\circ}C$. Also the termination time decreased with increasing the temperature rising velocity. But the content of coke increased with increasing temperature rising velocity. At the experiments in the delayed coker, the temperature condition at maximum oil yield was $475^{\circ}C$ and the fuel properties of oil from coking reaction was almost equal with conventional diesel. It was verified that the coking process might be useful process to upgrade the oil sand bitumem by using API and SIMDAS.
