Effects of cadmium on growth and nitrogen fixation activity of Melilotus suaveolens, a biennial legume plant dominating in the area of poor soil were quantitatively analyzed during the growing period. Cadmium treatments of 10, 30 and 100 ppm resulted in 12, 22 and 35% inhibition of plant height and 14, 25 nd 26% reduction of chlorophyll contents of leaves, respectively. The plant biomass reduced 51, 70 and 89% for leaves, 33, 50 and 59% for stems, and 42, 52 and 70% for roots, respectively by 10, 30 and 100 ppm Cd treatments. Cadmium contents of roots treated with 10, 30 and 100 ppm Cd were 62, 112 and 183 folds higher than that of the control, respectively. Cadmium contents of stems were about 1/2.2 of those of roots, but leaves contained only 1/27.8 of those of roots. Cadmium treatments resulted in increase of T/R ratios and decrease of F/C ratios significantly in the later growth period. Nodule formation was reduced to 8% in 42 days by the treatment of 100 ppm Cd. Specific nitrogen fixation activity of nodules attained 61.0, 24.0, 1.6 and 0.7 mol $C_2H_4{\cdot}g$ fr wt $nodule^{-1}{\cdot}h^{-1}$ on 42nd day, respectively for 0, 10. 30 and 100 ppm of Cd treatments. Total amount of nitrogen fixation per plant reduced by 73, 98 and 99% with the treatments of 10, 30 and 100 ppm Cd.

The carbon nanotube/poly-vinylidene fluoride (CNT/PVDF) composite films for the use of electronic devices were fabricated by spray coating method using the CNT/PVDF solution, which was prepared by adding PVDF pellets into the CNT dispersed N-Methyl-2-pyrroli-done (NMP) solution. The CNT/PVDF composite films were peeled off from the glass substrate and were investigated by the scanning electron microscopy, which revealed that the CNTs were uniformly dispersed in the PVDF films and thickness of the films were approximately $20{\mu}m$. The capacitance of the CNT/PVDF films increased dramatically by adding CNTs into the PVDF matrix, and finally saturated approximately 1880 pF. However, the I-V curves didn't show any saturation effect in the CNT concentration range of 0 ~ 0.04 wt%. Therefore we can control the performance of the devices from the CNT/PVDF composite film by adjusting the current level resulted from the CNT concentration with the uniform capacitance value.

Fifteen Karan-Swiss male calves of 9-12 months of age were divided into three groups of five each in a randomised block design. Animals in group I were fed wheat straw ad lib. and concentrate mixture according to their requirements, while in group II and III the animals were fed with 1/3 of the required concentrate mixture replaced by UMM licks 'Ex' and 'F', respectively. The DMI (kg/day as well as per 100 kg b.wt.) were similar (p > 0.05) among different groups of animals, however, the digestibility of DM as well as OM enhanced from $52.85{\pm}1.48$ to $58.36{\pm}1.89$ and $55.33{\pm}1.48$ to $60.12{\pm}1.75$, respectively. Growth rates of the calves were $533.8{\pm}27.25$, $532.3{\pm}42.24$ and $538.4{\pm}18.68$ g/d in groups I, II and ill (p > 0.05), respectively. Body composition and N balances of the animals were not affected by supplementation of UMM licks, however, protein retention efficiency was higher in group III ($82.57{\pm}2.54$) though nonsignificant. Feed cost/day was reduced from Rs. 7.92 (group I) to Rs. 4.62 (group II) and Rs. 3.44 (group III). Hence, partial replacement of concentrates by UMM licks reduced the cost of feeding of growing calves by 41.7 to 56.6% without affecting the growth performance.

The purpose of this study was to fabricate a biocompatible fluoride varnish with sustained fluoride release, and to compare it with commercial fluoride varnishes. For the experimental fluoride varnish, bis-GMA (BG) or two types of rosin (KR-610: K0, KR-612: K2) were used as bases. Either ethyl acetate or ethanol was added as solvent and 5 wt% NaF was used. 5 mg of experimental F- varnishes and 2 commercial products, Cavity shield (CS) and Flor-opal (FO), were applied on a labial surface of bovine teeth ($10mm{\times}7mm$). The amount of fluoride release was measured at 1 hr, 2 hrs, 3 hrs, 4 hrs, 8 hrs, 12 hrs, 1 day, 3 days, 5 days, 10 days, 15 days, 20 days and 30 days. MTT test was done with diluted F- varnishes using ethanol. Statistical analysis was done with one-way ANOVA and Duncan multiple range test (${\alpha}=0.05$). BG showed the highest fluoride release at 1 hr (P<0.05), while that of K0 was highest at 2 hrs (P<0.05). From 1 day to 5 days, experimental fluoride varnishes showed higher fluoride release than the commercial products (P<0.05), and there were no significant differences after 5 days (P>0.05). For MTT test, K0 and FO showed higher cell viability than other experimental groups (P<0.05), with no significant differences with K2 (P>0.05). Considering the sustained fluoride release and cell viability of the experimental rosin-based fluoride varnishes compared with commercial products, it will be appropriate for clinical application.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the electrochemical characteristics of nanotubular Ti-25Nb-xZr ternary alloys for dental implant materials. Materials and Methods: Ti-25Nb-xZr alloys with different Zr contents (0, 3, 7, and 15 wt.%) were manufactured using commercially pure titanium (CP-Ti), niobium (Nb), and zirconium (Zr) (99.95 wt.% purity). The alloys were prepared by arc melting in argon (Ar) atmosphere. The Ti-25Nb-xZr alloys were homogenized in Ar atmosphere at $1,000^{\circ}C$ for 12 hours followed by quenching into ice water. The microstructure of the Ti-25Nb-xZr alloys was examined by a field emission scanning electron microscope. The phases in the alloys were identified by an X-ray diffractometer. The chemical composition of the nanotube-formed surfaces was determined by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Self-organized $TiO_2$ was prepared by electrochemical oxidation of the samples in a $1.0M\;H_3PO_4+0.8wt.%$ NaF electrolyte. The anodization potential was 30 V and time was 1 hour by DC supplier. Surface wettability was evaluated for both the metallographically polished and nanotube-formed surfaces using a contact-angle goniometer. The corrosion properties of the specimens were investigated using a 0.9 wt.% aqueous solution of NaCl at $36^{\circ}C{\pm}5^{\circ}C$ using a potentiodynamic polarization test. Result: Needle-like structure of Ti-25Nb-xZr alloys was transform to equiaxed structure as Zr content increased. Nanotube formed on Ti-25Nb-xZr alloys show two sizes of nanotube structure. The diameters of the large tubes decreased and small tubes increased as Zr content increased. The lower contact angles for nanotube formed Ti-25NbxZr alloys surfaces showed compare to non-nanotube formed surface. The corrosion resistance of alloy increased as Zr content increased, and nanotube formed surface showed longer the passive regions compared to non-treatment surface. Conclusion: It is confirmed that corrosion resistance of alloy increased as Zr content increased, and nanotube formed surface has longer passive region compared to without treatment surface.

The Yucheon Bi deposits at Cheongha, Gyeongsangbugdo, is of a middle Paleogene (49 Ma) vein type, and is hosted in sandstone and shale of Banyawal formation in Cretaceous age. Based on mineral paragenesis, vein structure and mineral assemblages, two minera1ization stages were distinguished. The stage I consists of quartz with small amount of chlorite, pyrite, epidote, hal1oysite, vermiculite, serpentine and rutile associated with sericitization. The stage II is characterized by Bi minera1ization such as bismuthinite, Bi-Cu-Pb-S mineral, tetradymite, native gold, pyrite, pyrrhotite, arsenopyrite, wolframite, rutile, hematite, sphalerite, chalcopyrite, galena with alteration of sericite, chlorite, K-feldspar, albite and epidote. Fluid inclusion data indicate that fluid temperature and NaCl equivalent wt.% salinity range from 431 to $150^{\circ}C$ and from 19.2 to 0.18wt.% in the stage II. Evidence of boiling during the base-metal minera1ization indicates pressures 241 to 260 bars. Sulfur fugacity($-log\;f_{S2}$) deduced by mineral assemblages and compositions ranges from 5.1 to 5.7atm in early stage, from > 8.4 atm in middle stage and from 13.5 to 19.3 atm in late stage. It suggests that complex histories of progressive coo1ing, dilution and boiling were occurred by the mixing of the fluids. The ${\delta}^{34}S$, ${\delta}^{18}O$ and ${\delta}D$ data range from 2.5 to 3.9%, -0.5 to -4.1% and -29.7 to -47%, respectively. It indicated that hydrothermal fluids may be magmatic origin with boiling and mixing of meteoric water increasing paragenetic time.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to measure the resting metabolic rate (RMR) and to assess the accuracy of RMR predictive equations for Korean farmers. Methods: Subjects were 161 healthy Korean farmers (50 males, 111 females) in Gangwon-area. The RMR was measured by indirect calorimetry for 20 minutes following a 12-hour overnight fasting. Selected predictive equations were Harris-Benedict, Mifflin, Liu, KDRI, Cunningham (1980, 1991), Owen-W, F, FAO/WHO/UNU-W, WH, Schofield-W, WH, Henry-W, WH. The accuracy of the equations was evaluated on the basis of bias, RMSPE, accurate prediction and Bland-Altman plot. Further, new RMR predictive equations for the subjects were developed by multiple regression analysis using the variables highly related to RMR. Results: The mean of the measured RMR was 1703 kcal/day in males and 1343 kcal/day in females. The Cunningham (1980) equation was the closest to measured RMR than others in males and in females (males Bias -0.47%, RMSPE 110 kcal/day, accurate prediction 80%, females Bias 1.4%, RMSPE 63 kcal/day, accurate prediction 81%). Body weight, BMI, circumferences of waist and hip, fat mass and FFM were significantly correlated with measured RMR. Thus, derived prediction equation as follow : males RMR = 447.5 + 17.4 Wt, females RMR = 684.5 - 3.5 Ht + 11.8 Wt + 12.4 FFM. Conclusions: This study showed that Cunningham (1980) equation was the most accurate to predict RMR of the subjects. Thus, Cunningham (1980) equation could be used to predict RMR of Korean farmers studied in this study. Future studies including larger subjects should be carried out to develop RMR predictive equations for Korean farmers.

본 연구는 보강재의 부피분율이 49%, 56%, 63%첨가된 패키징용 SiC/Al복합재료를 가압주조법을 통해 개발하였다. SiC/Al복합재료는 0.8%의 무기성형제와 $Al_2$O$_3$섬유가 SiC입자에 비해 부피비 1:10의 비율로 첨가되었으며 새로이 고안된 몰드에서 제조되었다. 제조된 SiC/Al복합재료에 대해 30-300 구간에서 열팽창 계수를 측정하고, FEM수치해석과 비교하여 온도에 따른 특성을 분석하였다. 실험결과 SiC/Al복한재료의 열팽창계수는 혼합법칙, Turner모델의 중간값을 가졌으며 상온에서는 Turner모델에 가깝다가 온도가 높아질수록 혼합법칙에 가까와졌다. 이러한 특성은 모재의 소성변형 및 잔류응력에 의한 것으로 본 연구에서 제안한 모재와 보강재 사이에 작용하는 평균응력 차이로부터 분석이 된다. 해석결파 모재의 소성변형이 시작되는 온도에서 SiC/Al복합재료의 열팽창계수가 급격히 증가하였으며, 가공 잔류응력은 이러한 소성변형의 시작온도를 고온으로 이동시킴으로써 열팽창계수에 영향을 끼침을 밝혔다. 이러한 일련의 연구를 통해 온도에 따른 열팽창 특성은 복수입자모델에 의한 2차인 해석을 통해 성공적으로 분석됨을 보였다.

본 연구에서는 ZnO:Al 박막의 필름형 염료감응 태양전지의 투명전도막으로의 웅용 가능성을 연구하기 위하여 PET 기판 위에 r. f. 마그네트론 스퍼터링법으로 ZnO:Al 박막을 증착하였으며, ZnO:Al 박막의 전기적 그리고 광학적 특성의 향상을 위하여 기판 바이어스 전압을 인가하였다. 그 결과, 정(+)의 기판 바이어스 전압은 플라즈마 중의 전자를 기판의 스퍼터 원자에 충돌하게 함으로써 박막에 부가적인 에너지를 공급하게 되어 박막의 결정성장 및 전기적 특성을 향상시키고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 +30[V] 이상의 과도한 기판 바이어스 전압을 인가한 경우, 박막의 전기적 특성은 나빠졌으며, 특히 부(-)의 바이어스 전압을 인가한 경우 결정 성장이 나타나지 알아, 전기적 특성의 향상을 위한 기판 바이어스 전압의 효과가 매우 제한적으로 작용되고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구에서는 +30(V)의 기판 바이어스 조건하에서 $1.8{\times}10^{-3}[{\Omega}-cm]$의 체적 저항율 및 87.77(%)의 광 투과율을 얻을 수 있었다.
