The followings describes the result of making doenjang with added licorice (Glycyrrhiza uralensis) powder. and investigating its sensory characteristics and physicochemical quality. General preference was high at 20% salinity and 2% licorice (LD204), and 16% salinity and 2% licorice (LD162). The moisture content was unchanged in the control group, while it was reduced in LD204 and LD162 in the first week of fermentation, but showed little change after then. pHs were all in the range 5.90~5.97 on day 0, but decreased from 5.90 to 5.72 in the control group in the fifth week. LD204 changed from 5.95 on day 0to 5.42 in the first week, and then it gradually increased again and became 5.93 in the fifth week, which was similar to that of day 0. LD162 was 5.97 on day 0 and showed cyclic slight increases and decreases in the first week. It increased to 6.32 in the fifth week, which was higher than that of day 0 that is, its pH was higher than that of LD204. The acidity showed a difference right after it was made. In the control group, lactic acid content gradually increased from 0.16% on day 0 to the highest, 0.59%, in the fourth week. It slightly decreased in the fifth week. LD204 slowly increased from 0.25% on day 0 to a maximum, 0.50%, in the fourth week. It also slightly decreased in the fifth week, quite similarly to that of the control group. LD162, gradually increased from 0.22% on day 0 to the highest, 0.49, in the third week, and decreased after the fourth week. Salinity was 29.5%, 22.0%, and 18% in each of the control group, LD204, and LD162 on day 0 but increased to 34.0%, 29.0%, and 26.0% in the fifth week. Soluble solid was $32^{\circ}Brix$, $28^{\circ}Brix$, and $26^{\circ}Brix$ in each of the control group, LD204, and LD162 on day 0, but slightly increased to $40^{\circ}Brix$, $32^{\circ}Brix$, and $30^{\circ}Brix$ on the fifth day. It is thought that because of the sweetness of licorice, the higher-salinity doenjang earned a higher sensory test score than that of traditional doenjang. If its salinity is lowered a little, it could be used as a sauce, even possibly having medical effects as well.

The Koran native economic and ornamental trees consisting 12 species of 4 gymnosperm families and 3 strains, 6 varieties and 18 species of 12 angiosperm families were irradiated by X-and ${\gamma}$-ray at three different dose rates; 1) acute, 2) semi-acute, and 3) chronic irradiation in order to know their radiosensitivities and the radition effects on mutation induction. Different materials such as seeds, cuttings, scions and plants of the above trees were used in this study, depended upon tree. Most of the materials irradiated showed a high radiosensitivity. The LD-50 of conifer trees ranged from 1.2kR to 13.2kR, averaging 5.4kR which was remarkably higher than field crops. On the other hand the LD-50 dose of hard wood trees ranged from 7.0kR to 18.5kR, averaging 12.7kR. All the tested trees were classified into several categories based upon the relative radiosensitivity of each species which was measured at the dose of LD-50. Variegation was most common among the induced mutants. The other mutations were albino, chlorophyll deficiency, deformed leaf and fruits. It was noticeable that giant-leaf bud-sport mutants were induced in Chinese chestnut (Castanea bungeana) and yellow leaf bud-sport ones appeared in oriental arborvitae (Thuja orientalis).

Effects of sublethal dose of imidacloprid on biological characteristics, such as longevity, fecundity and excretions from brown planthopper (BPH) and its repellency to imidacloprid were examined. Topical application of imidacloprid to BPH at the dose of $LD_{10}$ and $LD_{30}$ (These values were determined at 48 hours after topical application of imidacloprid) was remarkably increased the mortality from 3 days after application and showed over 90% mortality on 4 days after application. Topical application of imidacloprid at dose of $LD_{10}$ (16 days) showed no difference compared to the control (16.9 days) in the longevity, while application of $LD_{30}$ was reduced the longevity of BPH to 13.5 days. Application of sublethal dose of imidacloprid to BPH adults reduced the number of eggs laid per day and for adult stage, and the hatchability of their eggs. By root zone application at the dose of $LC_{30}$, 50% longevity and 40% fecundity was reduced respectively, but showed no effect on number of eggs laid per day. The day on which BPH laid 50 % of eggs in number were 7.6 days at the $LC_{10}$ and 5.9 days the of $LC_{30}$ respectively. Hatchabilities of the groups treated with imidacloprid were lower than that of the control. Topical application to BPH at the dose of $LD_{10}$ did not reduce the amount of excretes, but application at the dose of $LD_{30}$ was reduced 26.5% of excretion compared to the control. Leaf dipping into the solution of concentration of $LC_{10}$ and $LC_{30}$ was reduced 96.4% and 98.0% of excretion, respectively. And root zone treatment at the concentration of $LC_{10}$ and $LC_{30}$ reduced 79.5% and 96.6% of excretion, respectively. Repellency rates of BPH to imidacloprid were 20% regardless of the dose of application.

The purpose of this paper is to examine the use of LD Clause against the seller's breach of contract in connection with delivering the goods in the international sales contract, and international guarantee system using standby L/C or demand guarantee. For this purpose, the author, first, considered the outline of the buyer's remedies in cases that the seller had not performed his obligations in contract and the difficulties in the buyer's remedies. As alternatives for overcoming the difficulties, this author recommended the LD Clauses (Liquidated Damage Clauses) based on ICC Model International Sales Contract, and explained each Model Clause. To enhance the feasibility of LD Clause, this author suggested the guarantee system, like the standby L/C or demand guarantee. But these guarantee systems have several limitations in practical use. Thus, these guarantee systems would greatly contribute to Korean exportation in the future. The reason is that the Korean export structure would be more complex and the period of sales contract would be longer and longer, which result to in long-terms supply contracts. These changes would require the guarantee much urgently.

A Ti:Sapphire laser pumped by the HCP has been designed and fabricated to study the optimal pumping conditions for lasing. The fluorescence energy converter LD-490 has been used. The result showed that the threshold energy of Ti:Sapphire laser is 1.39 KJ and the best efficiency is $7.13{\times}10^{-3}$% at the concentration $1.0{times}10^{-3}$ Mol/l of LD-490 dye. However, the efficiencies were decreased with the decrease of dye concentrations. The maximum output energy was obtained at 50 Torr Ar pressure, when the input voltage was 15 kV. As a convert dye, BBQ, was added to LD-490 with the rate of 1:1, the output energy was increased, whereas the thereshold energy was decreased as 1.17 kJ.

Vitamin C is known as an integral element for the formation and maintenance of intercellular supporting structures. Ascorbic acid has been used for the treatment of certain poisonings and hypovitaminosis(scurvy) but also known as a powerful reducing agent, and can kill a variety of bacteria and detoxify bacterial exotoxins including various clostridial exotoxins in vitro. For viruses, vitamin C inactivates herpes virus, vaccinia virus and influenza virus and has been used for the prevention and treatment of the common cold. Thus ascorbic acid plays an important role in antimicrobial action. Scurvy also promotes the development of tubercles in experimentally infected guinea pig and the tuberculosis patients require more vitamin C than normal persons. However there is no reports that ascorbic acid could inhibit the growh of M. tuberculosis. In this paper, antibacterial effects of ascorbic acid against M. tuberculosis were studied. The results are as follows: 1. The single use of the ascorbic acid exhibited antibacterial effect in vitro against $5{\times}10^3/ml$ of M. tuberculosis $H_{37}$ Rv at the concentration of ascorbic acid 0.625mg/ml over 3 hours exposure and 0.05mg/ml over 9 hours exposure. 2. In vivo mice administered with ascorbic acid 50mg/day for 5, 10 and 15 days respectively were protected from M. tuberculosis $2LD_{50}$, $3LD_{50}$, $4LD_{50}$ and $5LD_{50}$ given intravenously.

The effect of radiation on the steroidogenesis of rat ovary was investigated. For this purpose, female rats aged 7-8 weeks were exposed to a single dose of ${\gamma}$ radiation(320 rad or 800 rad) by the cobalt-60. At fourth(day of the first estrus) and eighth(day of the second estrus) days after irradiation, the concentrations of serum steroid hormones were determined by radioimmunoassays (RIA). The correlation between survival rate(Y) and radiation dose(X) was Y=-0.06X+100(r=0.89, n=10). Lethal dose$(LD)_{50(30)}$ and $LD_{20(30)}$ were 833.33rad and 333.33rad respectively. The weights of body and ovary was decreased significantly by the $LD_{50(30)}$ irradiation during the 4 days, but both weights were recovered at day 8. The serum levels of 17a-hydroxyprogesterone(170HP) and estradiol($E_2$) in the irradiated rats were not generally different from those of control. However, the levels of testosterone(T) and 19-norterstosterone(19NT) in the irradiated rat at $LD_{50(30)}$ and $LD_{20(30)}$ radiation doses were decreased, while progesterone levels in serum of the irradiated rats were slightly increased. These results suggest that irradiation may inhibit the first step of steroidogenesis, especially the conversion of P to T, in the rat ovary.

SCi-B-Vac, the 3rd hepatitis B vaccine , was selected for clinical evaluation on the basis of toxicologic profiles in preclinical studies. These studies were performed to obtain information on its toxic signs, organs which are mainly affected, and to estimate its lethality in mice and rats given Sci-B-Vac through two routes of administratin. In male and female rats given a single intragastrical dose of Sci-B-Vac, we estimated that $LD_{50}$ values were over 2.00 ml/100g B.W. (10ng/ml), respectively.
