Calocybe indica is an edible mushroom commercially cultivated in India and other tropical countries. In this study, the culture characteristics and optimal conditions of milky mushroom strains were determined. The growth temperature and pH range of milky mushrooms was extensively investigated between 15-35 ℃ and pH 3-11. For efficient cultivation, 20 types of nutrient sources were selected that consisted of one of 21 types of carbon sources, 6 organic nitrogen sources, 6 inorganic nitrogen sources, 13 amino acids, 6 organic acids and 12 inorganic salts. The impact of each of the selected nutrition sources and their concentration on growth was investigated. The optimum pH and temperature were determined to be pH 6.0 and 15 ℃, respectively. The optimum concentration of medium elements for the mycelial growth of C. indica was determined to be as follows: carbon source, 2% maltose; organic nitrogen source, 1% yeast extract; inorganic nitrogen source, 0.1% NaNO₃; amino acid, 0.7% asparagine; organic acid, 0.07% acetic acid; inorganic salt, 0.07 mM MnSO₄.

In this study, the ion-gelation method was applied to fabricate novel Fe-carbon-bentonite-alginate beads ($Fe^0$/C-BABs). $Fe^0$/C-BABs could effectively control Fe release during persulfate (PS) activation in N-acetyl-p-aminophenol (APAP) oxidation. A novel two-stage approach that combined $Fe^0$/C-BABs and an oyster-shell-filled bed (OSFB) column was developed to address the low pH and high Fe concentration of the effluent of the traditional PS process. The application of the $Fe^0$/C-BABs and OSFB column regulated pH levels and Fe release during the advanced oxidation of APAP. The characteristics of $Fe^0$/C-BABs were also investigated through scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectrometry, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The long-term operation performance of $Fe^0$/C-BABs in a continuous fixed-bed reactor under simultaneous PS and APAP feeding was also evaluated. The effects of initial PS concentration, pH, fixed-bed weight, in-flow rate, and dissolved oxygen (DO) were investigated. Under selected conditions, 86.3% efficiency was achieved during the first stage of APAP degradation (effluent pH of 3.05, Fe contents: $106.25mgL^{-1}$). Water quality improved after the effluent was passed through the OSFB column (effluent pH of 6.32, Fe contents: $21.43mgL^{-1}$). Moreover, this study analyzed the free radicals and intermediates produced during APAP degradation to identify the possible routes of APAP degradation.

실험동물에서 짧은 기간 감염시킨 후 얻은 간흡충(Clonorchis sinensis)에서는 거의 볼 수 없지만, 간, 담도 수술 또는 부검을 실시할 때 사람에서 얻은 간흡충중에는 검은 색소를 갖는 것을 관찰할 때가 있다. 이 색소는 살아 있는 간흡충에서도 명백하며, 색소가 없는 간흡충은 색이 분홍빛이고 투명한데 비하여 색소가 있는 것은 검은색을 띠고 불투명하다. 사람에서 얻은 간홉충 모두가 검은 색소를 갖고 있는 것은 아니며, 이제까지의 경험으로는 30세 이상 어른에서 얻은 간흡충중 그 길이가 약 1cm이상인 것에서 나타난다. 이 색소의 성분에 대하여 과거에는 빌리루빈, 또는 숙주 혈구세포에서 유래한 철을 포함하는 색소일 것이라고 생각하고 있었다. 저자등은 이 색소가 간흡충의 노쇠현상과 관련된 것으로 생각하고, 그렇다면 lipofuscin일 것이라고 생각하였다. 위의 가정을 확인하기 위하여 육안적으로 분명히 검은 색소가 있은 충체의 조직절편을 만들고, H & E, prussian blue, bilirubin, Fontina-Masson, PAS, amylase-PAS, Ziehi-Neelsen 및 AFIP method for lipofuscin등 8가지 조직화학적 염색을 실시하였다. 색소는 H & E, prussian blue, bilirubin, montana-Masson염색으로 착색되지 않았으며, PAS, amylase-PAS, Ziehi-Neelen, 및 AFIP method for lipofuscin에 염색되어 이것이 조직화학적으로 리포푸신 색소임을 확인하였다. 색소를 다시 전자현미경으로 관찰한 바 색소과립안에는 모양이 등글거나 타원형이고 크기가 $0.05~0.240{\mu}m$인 세포막구조가 산재하였음을 발견할 수 있어 간흡충의 검은 색소는 리포푸신 색소임을 다시 확인할 수 있었다.

GTP cyclohydrolase I catalyzing the first reaction in the biosynthesis of pterin moiety of folic acid in bacteria, was purified from Streptomyces tubercidicus by at least 203-fold with a yield of 32% to apparent homogeneity, using ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE-cellulose, Sepharose CL-6B, and hydroxylapatite column chromatography. The molecular weight of the native enzyme was estimated to be 230,000 daltons by gel permeation chromatography. The purified enzyme gave a single band on sodium dodesyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and its molecular weight was apparently 58,000 daltons. These results indicate that the enzyme consists of four subunits with the same molecular weight. The $K_m$ and $V_{max}$ values for GTP of the purified enzyme were determined to be 80${\mu}$M and 90nmol/min (mg protein), respectively. The optimum pH and temperature for the enzyme reaction were pH 7.5-8.5 and $40-42^{\circ}C$, respectively. Coenzyme or metal ion was not required for the enzyme activity. The enzyme activity was inhibited by most divalent cations, while it was slightly activated by potassium ion. In case of nucleotides, CTP, GMP, GDP, and UTP inhibited enzyme activity, among which GDP exhibited the strongest inhibitory effect.

An experiment was conducted for 20 days( from July 21 to August 10, 1996) to investigate the differences in thickness of eggshell and eggshell membrane in Korean native chicken. All the eggs were purchased from a farm located in Chinju area. All eggs were categorized into Treatment I (34.89~51.39 g), H (53.32~60.70 g), and III (34.89~60.70 g) according to their weights. Eleven items were measured in all three treatments, i.e., egg weight, egg length, egg width, breaking strength, eggshell thickness of large end(STLE), eggshell membrane thickness of large end(SMTL), eggshell thickness of small end (STSE), eggshell membrane thickness of small end(SMTS), eggshell thickness of middle part(STMP), and eggshell membrane thickness of middle part(SMTM). Correlation coefficients between egg weight and eggshell weight, among eggshell thickness of large end, small end and middle end and eggshell weight were significant (P<0.01). Correlation coefficients between egg weight and large eggshell membrane were nega-tively significant(P<0.01). Breaking strengths were higher in Treatment I than in Treatment H. Correlation coefficients among thickness of eggshell and eggshell membrane at each point at 3 parts of large end, small end and middle end were not significant.

A compact and broadband $4\times1$ array antenna was developed for 3G smart antenna system testbed. The $4\times1$ uniform linear away antenna was designed to operate at 1.885 to 2.2GHz with a total bandwidth of 315MHz. The array elements were based on the novel broadband L-probe fed inverted hybrid E-H (LIEH) shaped microstrip patch, which offers 22% size reduction to the conventional rectangular microstrip patch antenna. For steering the antenna beam, a commercial variable attenuator (KAT1D04SA002), a variable phase shifter (KPH350SC00) with four units each, and the corporate 4-ways Wilkinson power divider which was fabricated in-house were integrated to form the beamforming feed network. The developed antenna has an impedance bandwidth of 17.32% $(VSWR\leq1.5)$, 21.78% $(VSWR\leq2)$ with respect to center frequency 2.02GHz and with an achievable gain of 11.9dBi. The design antenna offer a broadband, compact and mobile solution for a 3G smart antenna testbed to fully characterized the IMT-2000 radio specifications and system performances.

Dissolution profiles of ketoconazole in solid dispersion system (SDS) were investigated in the second fluid (pH 6.8) for the dissolution test (KPV). PVP K-30 and methyl cellulose were used as carriers in SDS, and chloroform as a solvent. Computer optimization technique was applied to obtain an optimum formula of SDS, and the following results were obtained; 1) Dissolution rate of ketoconazole in SDS was larger than that of pure ketoconazole in the second fluid of pH 6.8. 2) PVP K-30 and methyl cellulosr were good carriers for SDS of ketoconazole. Moerover PVP K-30 was better than methyl cellulose. 3) The optimum formula of ketoconazole SDS obtained from computer optimization technique was chloroform 175 ml, PVP K-30 5g and methyl cellulose 0.2g per 1g of ketoconazole. 4) The experimental value of $A_{60}$ (Amount released from ketoconazole tablet during 60 minutes) obtained from SDS by optimum formula agreed well with the value calculated by polynomial regression equation.

초기생애단계의 일본송사리를 실험어류로 사용하여 TCDD와 PCB 126의 생물농축정도를 비교 측정하였고, TCDD와 PCB 126의 체외 배설에 대한 동태학적 특성을 비교 분석하였다. 생물농축실험은 초기생애단계의 새끼치어 및 어린 물고기에 TCDD와 PCB 126을 여러 농도로 물에 용해시켜 96시간 동안 정체된 상태로 폭로시킨 후 생물농축계수(BCF)와 지방-표준화한 생물농축계수(BCF$_{L}$)를 측정하였다. TCDD와 PCB 126의 일본송사리 초기생애단계의 새끼치어 및 어린 물고기에서 측정된 96-h BCF값 및 96-h BCF$_{L}$값은 폭로된 농도와 상관없이 비슷하게 나타나 반면, 생체크기가 클수록 그 값은 작게 나타났다. 일본송사리 새끼치어, 어린 물고기, 성어의 생체 내 총 지방함량은 각각 5.7, 4.2, 4.6%로 측정되었다. 체외배설 동태실험은 어린 물고기에 TCDD와 PCB 126을 3가지 농도롤 물에 용해시켜 96시간 동안 정체된 상태로 폭로시킨 후, flow-through장치로 공급되는 맑은 물로 옮겨 42일간 사양하면서 0, 7, 14, 21, 28, 42일에 생체 내 TCDD와 PCB 126 잔류량을 측정하여 분석하였다. 배설은 1차 반응속도론적으로 이루어졌으며 한 구획모형보다 두 구획모형이 더 적합한 것으로 분석되었다. 두 구획모형을 사용한 분석에서 TCDD와 PCB 126의 체외배설 반감기(t$\frac{1}{2}$) 및 배설속도상수($\beta$)는 각각 27.2일과 32.3일 및 0.025/d와 0.021/d로 측정되었다.
