Chlorella ellipsoidea cells were cultured in an iron, copper, zinc, manganese, molybdenum or boron-free medium. Biosynthetic activities of nucleic acids, protein and phospholipid in chlorella cells, which were growing in a microelement deficient medium were compared with those of the normal cells by measuring the contents of phosphate, amino acids or UV-absorbing substances in the various cell fractions. When the algae were grown in a molybdenum-free medium, the amounts of phosphate in the acid-soluble fraction of the cells increased, whereas the amounts of alkali-stable protein and RNA decreased compared with the normal cells showing that the synthesis of protein and RNA from the early products of photosynthesis was inhibited. When the algae were grown in a boron-free medium, amounts of alkali-labile protein and phospholipid of the cells decreased, while the amount of phosphate in acid-soluble fraction increased compared with the normal cells showing that the biosynthesis of protein and phospholipid from the early products of photosynthesis was retarded. In general, amounts of protein and RNA in the microelement deficient cells significantly decreased compared with those of the normal cells. Phosphate content in the acid-soluble fraction of the algal cell grown in an zinc, copper, molybdenum, or boron-free medium increased considerably, whereas that of the algal cell grown in an iron or manganese-free medium decreased remarkably compared with that of the control. It is considered, therefore, that molybdenum, zinc, copper and boron etc. play an important role in the biosyntbesis of macromolecule from acid-soluble phosphate compounds, in contrast to the principal action of iron and manganese on the photosynthetic process itself.

Bicarbonate has been considered as a better approach for supplying CO₂ to microalgae cells microenvironments than gas bubbling owing to cost-effectiveness and easy operation. However, the β-carotene production was too low in Dunaliella salina cultivated with bicarbonate in previous studies. Also, the difference in photosynthetic efficiency between these two carbon sources (bicarbonate and CO₂) has seldom been discussed. In this study, the culture conditions, including NaHCO₃, Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺ and microelement concentrations, were optimized when bicarbonate was used as carbon source. Under optimized condition, a maximum biomass concentration of 0.71 g/l and corresponding β-carotene content of 4.76% were obtained, with β-carotene yield of 32.0 mg/l, much higher than previous studies with NaHCO₃. Finally, these optimized conditions with bicarbonate were compared with CO₂ bubbling by online monitoring. There was a notable difference in F_v/F_m value between cultivations with bicarbonate and CO₂, but there was no difference in the F_v/F_m periodic changing patterns. This indicates that the high concentration of NaHCO₃ used in this study served as a stress factor for β-carotene accumulation, although high productivity of biomass was still obtained.

방사선에너지가 생체에 미치는 영향 중 물질대사에 관여하는 미량원소의 함량을 알아보았다. 실험 방법은 mouse에 1Gy, 5Gy, 10Gy의 X선을 전신 조사한 후 간 조직에서 분석하였다. 그 결과, 일부 원소에서 대조군과 비교하여 함량 변화가 확인되었다. 선량에 따른 변화에서는 1Gy에서는 크게 차이를 보이지 않았으나 5Gy, 10Gy의 높은 선량에서는 Ca, Mn의 함량이 감소되었다. 그 중 Ca의 함량이 가장 많이 감소되었으며, 근육 긴장과 만성 두통 등의 증후군을 유발하는 것으로 판단된다. 함량 증가를 보인 원소는 Al으로 100% 증가된 것으로 조사되었다. 방사선 조사 후 기간 경과에 따른 함량 변화에서는 Fe, Ba 등에서 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 유해원소는 Cd 함량이 25% 증가 되었는데 이는 칼슘대사에 관여하는 것으로 알려졌다. 따라서 방사선에너지에 의한 세포 손상이 미량원소 함량 변화에 영향을 주는 것으로 판단되며, 전구증상을 유발하는데 일정부분 관련이 있는 것으로 사료된다.

Micron-size mechanical devices are becoming more prevalent, both in commercial applications and in scientific inquiry. Within the last decade, a dramatic increase in research activities has taken place, mostly due to the rapidly expanding growth of applications in areas of MEMS(Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems), bioengineering, chemical systems, and advanced energy systems. In this study, we have described the effects of vortex viscosity variation on the flowfields in a micro-slot between rotating surfaces of revolution using a micropolar fluid theory. In order to solve this problem, we have used boundary layer equations and applied non-zero values of the microrotation vector on the wall. The results are compared with the corresponding flow problems for Newtonian fluid. Results show that the coefficient $\delta$ controls the main part of velocity ${\upsilon}_x$ and the coefficient M controls the main part of microrotation component ${\Omega}_{\theta}$.

Iron is the required microelement supporting life and is the main component of hemoglobin. Thus iron has affinity with exercise capacity. Iron metabolism turbulence induced by exercise is one of causes of hematopoietic hypofunction. Results of the experiment showed that long-term treadmill exercise of progressive loading significantly decreased levels of erythrocyte indexes, serum iron, serum ferritin and significantly increased serum transferrin level. Nutrition supplement could significantly retard the variations, and Exercise +Nutrition group have higher levels of erythrocyte indexes, serum iron, serum ferritin and lower level of serum transferrin than Exercise group. The results indicated that nutrition supplement have function of prevent and cure on iron metabolism turbulence induced by exercise, furthermore significantly enhance hemoglobin level in rats.

Heat transfer coefficient and fin efficiency of a heat exchanger dispersed in the microelement of control volume were predicted with various flow patterns, conditions and material properties. A computational program was developed by using the method of efficiency-NTU(Number of transfer unit). The modelling was applied to heat exchangers, also was integrated in power pack cooling system in an armored vehicle. The compatibility and the generality were proved by comparing the prediction values with the test results. The developed program may be useful for the design of the cooling system in an armored vehicle.

Plant species have shown the capability to absorb U into the biomass. Norman(l952) even suggested that uranyl ion acts as an accessory microelement in growth of Lemna and flax roots. The plants, termed metal hyperaccumulators, can extract and accumulate more than 1000-10,000mg heavy metal per kilogram of dry weight of plants (0.1-1%). The most vital main factors influencing the ability and efficiency of phytoremediation is the ability of the plant to uptake the metals from soil before the accumulation mechanism happens in the plant tissue.

The HDDR (Hydrogenation-Disproportionation-Desorption-Recombination) process is a special method to produce anisotropic NdFeB powders for bonded magnet. The effect of the modified HDDR process on magnetic properties of $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$-based magnet with several composition $Nd_{11.2}Fe_{66.5-x}Co_{15.4}B_{6,8}Zr{0.1}Ga_x(x=0{\sim}1.0)$ and that of microelement Ga, disproportional temperature and annealing temperature on $_jH_c$, grain size were investigated in order to produce anisotropic powder with high magnetic properties. It was found that modified HDDR process is very effective to enhance magnetic properties and to fine grain size. The addition of Ga could change disproportionation character remarkably of the alloy and could improve magnetic properties of magnet powder. Increasing annealing temperature induces significant grain growth. And grain size produced by modified HDDR process is significantly smaller than those produced by conventional HDDR process.

Hawkeye(Fe-chlorosis resistant) and PI 54619-5-1(Fe-chlorosis sensitive) soybeans were grown with and without DPTA(diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid) in Yolo loam soil. The major purpose of the study was to compare leaf-stem distribution of microelements for different treatments which increase concentrations of microelements in plants to evaluate the role of the chelating agent in increasing translocation of the microelements. Plant responses and yields were recorded and Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Al, Co, N, Sn, Pb and Mo contents of leaves and stems were determined by emission spectrography. Sulfur(soil pH4) increased leaf concentrations of Mn, Zn, Cu, CO, Ni, Sn and Pb. DTPA, particularly at 50ppm in soil, increased leaf concentrations of Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Co, Ni and Mo. It increased Ti in leaves for the PI 54619-5-1 soybeans only. DTPA increased the ratios of the concentration in leaves to that in stems for Fe, Zn, Cu, Al, Ti, CO, Ni and Mo. Sulfur which increased the microelement concentration in both leaves and stems did not have this effect. DTPA increased the ratio at soil pH 6 and 8.5 in leaves to that in stems of the bush bean plants for Fe, Zn, Cu, Ni, but to a lesser extent in bush beans than in soybeans. PI 54619-5-1 soybeans tended to contain less of most of the metals than did Hawkeye soybeans.

Nutrition fortification of processed foods with microelements is a popular practice in many countries to improve nutritional status of target population. In this study the current food fortification in Korea was evaluated and the regulations and guidelines for food fortification in other countries were presented. Most commonly added nutrients were calcium, vit.C, fiber, vit.Bs and iron. The level of fortified nutrients and the vehicle foods were variable. vit.C and fiber appeared to be overfortified in some foods and the necessity of fortification of these nutrients needs to be examined since the intakes of these elements appears to meet the RDA. Most of other nutrients such as vit.A, vit. $B_1$, vit. $B_2$, and iron were added at the level of 10~25% RDA per serving size. The vehicle foods for fortification were snacks, milk, ramyun, breakfast cereal, juices, candies and ready-to-eat retort pouch foods but not rice which is a staple food in Korea. The guideline and regulation for food fortification is required to ensure safe and proper supplementation of needed nutrients in processed foods.
