A highly thermostable xylose isomerase from Thermus thermophilus has been expressed in Escherichia coli and crystallized. The purified enzyme shows its optimum temperature at $90^{\circ}C$. It has been crystallized at room temperature using polyethylene glycol 4000 as the precipitant. The crystal belongs to the orthorhombic space group $P2_12_12_1$, with unit cell parameters of a = 73.34 ${\AA}$, b = 144.05 ${\AA}$, c = 155.07 ${\AA}$. The presence of one molecule of tetrameric xylose isomerase in the asymmetric unit gives a crystal volume per protein mass ($V_m$) of 2.32 ${\AA}^3/Da$ and the solvent content of 47.0% by volume. The diffraction pattern extends to 1.9 ${\AA}$ Bragg spacing with synchrotron radiation and a set of native data has been collected to 2.3 ${\AA}$.

The SONOSFET Shows low operation voltage, high cell density, anti good endurance due to modified Fowler-Nordheim tunneling as memory charge injection method. In this paper, therefore, the NOR-type Flash EEPROM composed of SONOSFET, which has fast lead operation speed and Random Access characteristics, is proposed. An 8${\times}$8 bit NOR-type SONOSFET Flash EEPROM had been designed and its electrical characteristics were verified. Read/Write/Erase operations of it were verified with the spice parameters of SONOSFETs which had Oxide-Nitride-Oxide thickness of 65${\AA}$-165${\AA}$-35${\AA}$ and that of scaled down as 33${\AA}$-53${\AA}$-22${\AA}$, respectively. When the memory window of the scaled-down SONOSFET with 8V operation was similar to that of the SONOSFET with 13V operation, the Read operation delay times of the scaled-down SONOSFET were 25.4ns at erase state and 32.6ns at program state, respectively, and those of the SONOSFET were 23.5ns at erase state and 28.2ns at program state, respectively.

The white-light-emitting organic LED(OLED) with two-wavelength was fabricated using the DPVBi of blue emitting material and a series of orange color fluorescent dye(Rubrene) by vacuum evaporation processes. The basic structure of white-light-emitting OLED was ITO/NPB(150$\AA$)/DPVBi/Rubrene/BCP(100$\AA$)/Alq$_3$(150$\AA$)/Al(600$\AA$). We analyzed the fabricated device through the changes of the DPVBi and Rubrene layer's thickness. We obtained the white-light-emitting OLED with white color light and the CIE coordinate of the device was (0.29, 0.33) at applied voltage of 13V when the thickness of DPVBi layer was 210$\AA$ and the thickness of Rubrene layer was 180$\AA$. At a current of 100㎃/$\textrm{cm}^2$, the quantum efficiency was 0.35％ and at a voltage of 20V, it was 0.405％.

To investigate the characteristics of green light-emitting OLED device, C545T material with $Alq_3$ was doped in the OLED device of $ITO(1500)/2-TNATA(400{\AA})/NPB(80{\AA})/Alq_3:C545T(160{\AA})/Alq_3(240{\AA})/LiF(3{\AA})/Al(2400{\AA})$ structure, which was used as a activator at the respective concentration of 0.5 vol.%, 1 vol.%, 2 vol.% and 3 vol.%. It was observed from the experiments that the device efficiency firstly increased with the increase of C545T concentration and the maximum efficiency of 10.9 cd/A and 4.28 lm/W was obtained at C545T concentration of 1 vol.%, and then the device efficiency decreased as the C545T activator concentration increased above 2 vol.% contents, while the longest lifetime of over 750 hours was obtained at C545T concentration of 1 vol.%.

Sanduleak's star is a suspected symbiotic binary located in the Large Magellanic Cloud. It is known that it has a giant jet with physical size ~ 14pc. Its spectrum shows two strong emission bands at $6825{\AA}$ and $7082{\AA}$, which are originated from Raman-scattering of O VI by neutral hydrogen atoms. We present the high-resolution spectrum of Sanudleak's star obtained with MIKE at the Magellan-Caly telescope to investigate the O VI emission region based on the profiles of the two Raman features. In this spectrum, it is noted that the Raman $6825{\AA}$ feature exhibits a single broad peak profile, which is in high contrast with a clear triple peak profile of the Raman $7082{\AA}$ feature. In our analysis we suggest that the O VI emission region consist of three main emission parts: an accretion disk, a bipolar outflow and an optically thick, compact component surrounding the white dwarf. By performing Monte Carlo simulation we constrain the representative column density of the H I scattering region N_HI ~1${\times}$10^23 cm^-2, which is in accordance with the observed flux ratio in the two Raman features F(6825)/F(7082) ~ 4.5.

The effect of aqua-acupuncture of total saponin on the recovery of liver function in -intoxicated rats was exemined. Rats were divided into normal, control and three experimental groups (As-I group : aqua-acupuncture of saline to Gansu locus and Aa-III group : aqua-a-cupuncture of total saponin to blank locus at the thigh). Changes of some serum biochemical parameters (ALT, AST and ALP, total protein and albumin, and albumin/globulin (A/G) ratio) were determined. Serum ALT activities were increased by $CCI_{4}$T and decreased in all aqua-acupuncture groups compared with the control group. Aa-I group showed significant decrease of ALT activities on the 2nd (P<0.05) and 3rd (P<0.05) day, respectively. Aa-II group showed significant decrease on the 3rd day (P<0.05) day. Serum AST activities were increased by $CCI_{4}$T and decreased in all apua-acupuncture groups compared with the control group. Aa-I group showed significant decrease on the 1st (P<0.05), 2nd (P<0.001) and 3rd (P<0.001) day, respectively. Aa-II group showed significant decrease on the 3rd (P<0.001) day. Aa-III group showed significant decrese on the 1st (P<0.05) and 3rd (P<0.001) day, respectrvely. Serum ALP activities were increased by $CCI_{4}$T and decreased in all aqua-a-cupuncture groups compared with the control group. Aa-I group showed significant decrease on the 3rd (P<0.01) day. Total protein, albumin and A/G ratio were decreased by $CCI_{4}$T and increased in all aqua-acupuncture groups compared with control group. Aa-I group showed significant increase only on the 3rd day in albumin (P<0.01). It was thought that the aqua-acupuncture of total saponin to Gansu locus was effective on the recovery of liver function in $CCI_{4}$T-intoxicated rats.

This study was carried out to investigate the comparison of immunomodualtory effects of water-extracted Ginseng Radix(GR), Pilose Asia-bell(PA), Astragali Radix(AR), Astractylodes Rhizoma alba(AA) and Dioscoreae Rhizoma (DR). The parameter examined to assess apparent immunomodulatory effect of the water-extracted GR, PA, AR, AA and DR included the regulation of Nitric oxide (NO), the expression of Th1/Th2 type cytokine, the change of B cell phenotype. The water-extracted GR, PA, AR, AA and DR inhibited NO production and iNOS protein expression in LPS stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophage cells. In the Th1 and Th2 cytokine expression, the water-extracted GR, PA, AR, AA and DR induced IL-2 and IFNr mRNA gene expression. Therefore, it seems that the water-extracted GR, PA, AR, AA and DR have a inducing effect of Th1 type cytokines. In the Flow cytometry analysis, the water-extracted GR, PA, AR, AA and DR did not change B cell phenotype (CD45R/B220). The water-extracted GR, PA, AR, AA and DR have a reducing effect of immune suppression cause by Methotrexate (MTX), an agent of immune suppression. These results suggest that the immunomodulatory effects of the water-extracted GR, PA, AR, AA and DR may be, in part, associated with the inducing IL-2 and IFNr mRNA gene expression in and regulation of NO production in macrophage cells.
