This study was to compare the geological occurrences and geneses of the Myogi, Tsukinuno, Dobuyama and Kawasaki bentonite deposits distributed in the Tertiary sedimentary basins of NE Japan, and to compare the mineralogical and physicochemical properties of their bentonites. The Japanese bentonite deposits are mainly distributed in the Green-tuff region which was formed in Neogene. The shape of ore body of the Myogi, Tsukinuno and Kawasaki deposits formed by the diagenesis are layered and stratiform. In contrast to this, the Dobuyama deposit formed by hydrothermal alteration shows the cone shape. The mineralization age of four deposits are 1.8 ～ 21 Ha from Early Miocene to Pliocene. The Dobuyama bentonite with the highest montmorillonite content shows the highest surface area, CEC, MB adsorption, and strengths. The Tsukinuno bentonite with a little high montmorillonite content is characterized by strong alkalinity, high viscosity and swelling. The Kawasaki bentonite, the Na-Ca mixed type, shows higher viscosity and swelling than the Ca-type Dobuyama bentonite. The Myogi bentonite with the lowest montmorillonite content shows the properties of low viscosity, In adsorption, strengths and a little high CEC and surface area. The high CEC and surface area of this deposit is due to the sufficient occurrence of zeolite. A strong dispersion in the Na-type bentonite and a strong flocculation in the Ca-type bentonite took place, and both the types show a slow flocculation with time. The physicochemical properties of the bentonite are mainly controlled by the montmorillonite content, interlayer cations, and impurity minerals such as zeolite. But bentonites inconsistent to this factors are sometimes occurred. This is maybe due to the crystal chemistry such as layer charge of montmorillonite and crystal morphology of montmorillonite such as aspect ratio.

Metallic magnetic calorimeters (MMCs) are one of the most competitive low temperature detector (LTD) readout sensors. They have the advantages of high time resolution, no heat dissipation, and a wide range of operating temperature. We apply MMCs to our neutrinoless double beta decay ($0v{\beta}{\beta}$) search experiment. A $CaMoO_4$ crystal was employed as both a source of $0v{\beta}{\beta}$ and an energy absorber. The crystal was thermally connected to a MMC sensor. We set a simple thermal model for this detector and measured pulse shapes are compared with a numerical solution of the thermal model.

We fabricate organic-inorganic hybrid thin film for the purpose of encapsulation by molecular layer deposition (MLD) using Trimethylaluminium (TMA) and Adipoyl Chloride (AC). Ellipsometry was employed to verify self limiting reaction of ALD. Linear relationship between number of cycle and thickness was obtained. We found that desirable organic thin film fabrication is possible by MLD surface reaction in nanoscale. Purging was carried out after dosing of each precursor to form monolayer in each sequence. We also confirmed roughness of the organic thin film by atomic force microscopy. We deposit TMA and AC at $70^{\circ}C$ and that 1.78A root mean square was obtained which indicates that uniform organic thin film was formed. We confirmed precursor's functional group by IR spectrum. We calculated WVTR of organic-inorganic hybrid super-lattice epitaxial layer using Ca test. WVTR indicates superlattice film can be possibly use as encapsulation in flexible devices.

Dopamine (DA) acts on swimming motor neurons (SMNs) of Polyorchis penicillatus as an inhibitory neurotransmitter by hyperpolarizing their membrane potentials, which results from the activation of voltagesensitive potassium channels mediated through a $D_2-type$ receptor. In addition, DA, and not the hyperpolarized membrane potential, directly decreased the input resistance of SMNs by ca. 50% from 1.42 to 0.68 $G{\Omega}$. It strongly indicates that DA can shunt other excitatory synaptic signals onto SMNs where DA usually elicited much greater responses in their neurites than soma. All these evidences suggest that DA may operate in this primitive nervous system in dual modes as an inhibitory neurotransmitter and neuromodulator as well.

Recent studies have shown that dopamine applied to cultured swimming motor neurons of Polyorchis penicillatus produces an inhibitory action by opening potassium channels through $D_2$-like receptors. In this study, it was demonstrated that dopamine found in the hydromedusa was not from exogenous sources and the content of dopamine depended on the $Ca^{2+}$ content of the dissecting media. In addition, a combination of thin layer chromatography and high performance liquid chromatography showed the presence of DOPA and DO PAC-like compounds in the jellyfish. The glyoxylic acid method for catecholamines suggested that a population of small cells, neither swimming motor neurons nor B-like neurons, had dopaminergic systems. From all these results, it is suggested here that DA synthesized from DOPA in some cells is released. being dependent on calcium concentrations, into a synaptic cleft and degraded into DOPAC after acting as an inhibitory transmitter to swimming motor neurons.

This study was carried out to investigate the solubility of the ingredients of the bilestone in the solution of the traditional oriental medicines. The cholesterol and the calcium carbonate(CaCO₃) were chosen as the ingredients of the bilestone. Coicis Semen, Polygonum aviculare L, Maydis Stigmata, Allium tuberosum Rottler, and Raphanus sativa var. hortensis for. acanthiformis Makino were studied as the oriental medicines for the bilestone. The cholesterol had showed no solubility in all solutions of the traditional oriental medicines, but the calcium carbonate had showed the good solubility in all solutions of the traditional oriental medicines except Coicis Semen.

Poly(l,6-heptadiyne) derivatives with phenoxy and 3,7-dimethyloctyloxyphenoxy substituents were synthesized using metathesis polymerization. Polymerizations using MoCl$\sub$5/ as the sole catalyst gave high yields and the resulting polymers were completely soluble in organic solvents. The polymers' structures and thermal properties were characterized using NMR and UV-Vis spectroscopy, as well as with TGA and DSC thermograms. From the analysis of the high-resolution $\^$13/C-NMR spectra, we was found that these polymers contain six-membered rings. The number-average molecular weights and polydispersities of the polymers were ca. 7.0∼20 ${\times}$ 10$^3$ and 3.1∼5.8, respectively. The glass transition temperatures of the polymers were found to be in the range 91∼159$^{\circ}C$.

To determine the effect of tenascin on forming periodontal pocket and pseudopocket, the ginival tissues were surgically obtained from the patients with adult periodontitis(10) and non-inflammatory phenytoin-associated gingival hyperplasia(5). The excised tissue specimens were fixed in neutral formalin for $6{\sim}24$ hours, embedded with paraffin, sectioned at 4-6m in thickness, mounted on glass slides coated with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane(Sigma Chemical Co., St. Louis, MO, U.SA.) and immunohistochemically processed by Avidin-Biotin peroxidase complex method for the localization of tenascin, using monoclonal mouse anti-human tenascin antiboday(Chemicon-International Inc., Temecula, CA, U.S.A., 1: 5,000) as the primary antibody. Regardless of periodontal pocket and pseudopocket, tenascin was localized along the connective tissue subjacent to basement membrane of gingival epithelium, and strong positive reactivity was obviously noted in the papillary projections of gingival connective tissue. The results suggest that tenascin may affect the development of papillary projections and the proliferation of epithelial cells.

본 연구에서는 단양지역에 분포한 석회암동굴계의 수질에 대한 주요 원소와 미량 원소 그리고 오염실태를 살펴보았다. 풍화물에 존재하는 미량 원소가 기반암보다 수 배 내지 수 백배 이상 부하되어 있었다. TSD와 EC 등은 화강암의 지하수 보다 높은 경향이 있었고 pH는 중성 내지 알칼리성이었다. Ca와 Mg은 기반암에서 용탈되어 지하수로 용존된 것으로 50ppm이상을 함유하고 있다. Fe과 K은 다른 주요 원소보다 현저히 낮은 경향이 있었다. 주요 음이온인 F$^{-}$ , Cl$^{-}$ , NO$_3$$^{-}$ , SO$_4$$^{-}$ 등은 환경기준치 보다도 현저히 낮은 상태이며, 따라서 오염이 안된 상태로 볼 수 있다. 미량 원소중 Al, Sr, Ba등이 높은 반면에 Co, Mo, Sb, Cs, W, Pb, U, Mn 등은 매우 극소량으로 존재하는 것으로 나타났다. 연구지역 중 온달굴, 고수굴, 천동, 노동 등지는 오염이 거의 안된 상태로 매우 양호한 편이나 천동굴은 관광객으로 인하여 일부 원소가 오염되어 있는 실정이다.
