A practical and convenient method of rearing Eucyclops serrulatus in a microculture environment is described. A complete life cycle of E. serrulatus was maintained in a narrow space on a microscope slide glass on which a cover glass of $22{\times}40mm$ in size was mounted at a height of 0.8mm. The culture medium was constituted by bottled mineral water boiled with grains of Glycine max (soybean). Chilomonas paramecium, a free-living protozoan organism, was provided as live food. Growth of nauplii hatched from eggs to the first stage of copepodite took an average of 7.7 days, and the growth of copepodite 1 to the egg-bearing adult female took an average of 20.1 days in the microculture cell with an average life time of 44.7 days. Continuous passage of cope pods was successfully maintained as long as sufficient medium and food were provided. The microculture method enables an in situ microscopic observation on the growth and developmental process of helminth larvae experimentally infected to copepods as well as of copepod itself. Furthermore, it does not require anesthetization and, therefore, minimize the amount of stress exposed to cope pods during the handling process.

The present study has been carried out to investigate the optimal condition on the blastogenesis of guinea pig lymphocytes. A microculture system in conjunction with a semiautomatic multiple sample harvester(SAMSH) was used to study the in vito optimal condition of guinea pig lymphocytes. Data were presented to show many variables that are Involved in studying the responses of guinea pig lymphocyte in a microculture system to the stimulation of Concanavalin A(Con A) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Analysis indicated that the conditions for optimal Con A as measured by incorporation of $^3H$-TdR include : (1) use of RPMI-1640 as culture medium, (2) use of $6{\mu}g$ of Con A, per culture, (3) use of $1{\times}10^6$ cells per culture. Conditions for optimal stimulation with LPS mitogen were similar to those used for Con A.

The present study has been carried out to investigate the optimal condition on lymphocyte blastogenesis of rabbit lymphocytes, whole blood culture and microculture system in conjunction with a semiautomatic multiple sample harvester(SAMSH) was used to study the In vitro optimal condition of rabbit lymphocytes. Data were presented to show many variables that are involved in studying the phytohemagglutinin(PHA) and lipopolysaccharide(LPS) response of rabbit lymphocyte in a microculture system. Analysis indicated that the conditions for optimal PHA as measured by incorporation of $^3H$-TdR include: (1) use of RPMI-1640 as culture medium. (2) use of $6{\mu}g$ of PHA, per culture. (3) 48-hours culture period. Conditions for optimal stimulation with LPS mitogen were similar to those used for PHA.

The present study was carried out to investigate the optimal conditions on blastogenesis of guinea pig lymphocytes. A microculture system in conjuction with a semiautomatic multiple sample harvester was used to study the in vitro optimal condition of guinea pig lymphocytes. Careful analysis of lymphocyte transformation to concanavalin A (Con A) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) mitogen determined optimal conditions as: (a) 10% fetal bovine serum in RPMI-1640 medium (b) 48-hour culture period.

There has been an increasing concern of whether a real instructional change happens in a way to promote students' mathematical development. Against this background, this paper dealt with successes and difficulties an elementary school teacher went through as she moved on to student-centered instruction. The analysis drew on classroom observations for one year to illustrate how the teacher and students established social norms, sociomathematical norms, and classroom mathematical practices that could emphasize mathematical sense-making and justification of ideas. Close analysis showed many gradual but dramatic changes in terms of mathematics classroom culture. This led to consider possibly subtle but crucial issues with regard to implementing student-centered instruction.

The mathematics education community is seeking to change a teacher-centered class-room culture to a student-centered culture. However, the real transition is not easy, even for teachers who are eager and willing to teach differently. The challenge for teachers is to use the social structure of the classrooms to nurture students' development toward mathematical ways of thinking and communicating as well as their under-standing of mathematical concepts and processes. By introducing an elementary teacher's teaching practice and professional develop-ment along with her classroom episodes, this paper is to make strides toward an enriched understanding of the culture of the elementary mathematics classrooms in which students may have a lot of opportunities to develop conceptual under standing and math-ematical disposition. This paper first provides a detailed description of the classroom flow in terms of general social norms and sociomathematical norms in order to explore how the teacher and the students have established such a student-centered math-ematics microculture. This paper then analyzes the teacher's teaching approach and professional development.

Objectives : To evaluate the anti-tumor and synergic effect of Soonkiwhajungtang with doxorubicin. Methods : The inhibitory concentration (IC), $IC_{50}$ and $IC_{90}$ of single use of doxorubicin and Soonkiwhajungtang with their concomitant treatment against MKN-45 (human stomach carcinoma) cell line were observed using MTT (microculture tetrazolium test) assay. In addition, their anti-tumor effects were also observed in xenograft nude mice models against the MKN-45 cell line. Results : Soonkiwhajungtang has only minimal direct anti-tumor effect against MKN-45 cell line but it reduced general depressed signs induced by implantation of the tumor cell lines and increased the total WBC and lymphocyte numbers. Conclusions : It is considered or expected that Soonkiwhajungtang extract reduces the critical toxicity of doxorubicin and has favorable synergic anti-tumor effect when administered concomitantly with doxorubicin.

Objectives : To evaluate the anti-tumor and synergic effect of Bojungikkeehapdaechilki-tang (BJDC) with doxorubicin. Methods : The inhibitory concentration (IC), $IC_{50}{\;}and{\;}IC_{90}$ of single use of doxorubicin and BIDC with their concomitant treatment against Colon-26 (murine rectum carcinoma) cell line were observed using MTT (microculture tetrazolium test) assay. In addition, their anti-tumor effects were also observed in xenograft nude mice models against Colon-26 cell line. Results : BJDC had only minimal direct anti-tumor effect against Colon-26 cell line but it reduced general depressed signs induced by implantation of the tumor cell lines and increased the total WBC and lymphocyte numbers. Conclusions : It is considered or expected that BJDC extract is reducing the critical toxicity of doxorubicin and has favorable synergic anti-tumor effect when administered conconitently with doxorubicin.

This study was carried out to develop the methodology of chromosome preparation from blood cultures in mammals which included human, mouse, cattle and pig. For karyotyping, 0.5-5.0ml of peripheral blood were collected and cultured. The satisfactory results were obtained from macroculture and microculture in all species. In culture, the patterns of cell growth were no difference among media except serum concentration and mitogen supplement. The presence of mitogen and fetal bovine serum in medium significantly affected the mitotic index. The optimal culture condition was 37$^{\circ}C$ for 3 days. And the concentration of colcemid and reincubation time also affected the chromosome morphology. In harvest, chromosome patterns were mainly affected on hypotonic treatment which included treated time and temperature, dropwise of fixative solution, and drying after slide preparation.

A microculture technique for the mixed lymphocyte culture test(MLC) in the sheep is described. The optimal incubation periods for the MLC are varied from 4 to 6 days depending on the sources of lymphocytes. It is found that a 2.5:1 stimulator-responder cell ratio and the responder cell concentration of $1{\times}10^5$ cells/well produce the highest($^3H$)-thymidine incorporation. Moreover cryopreservation of bovine lymphocytes results in satisfactory and reproducible MLC reaction. It is also evident that the MLC reactions of the sheep are under the control of histocompatibility matching between the stimulator cells and the responder cells. Significance of the technique as a too! for study on cell mediated immunity in sheep system, either normal or squamous cell carcinoma-bearing, are discussed.
