From 1998, Oriental Medical Physicians(OMP) is distributed in Public Health Sector. but long term plan for Oriental Medicine in Public Health is not existed. So, this study is designed for the activation of OMP Subjects in this study were comprised 3 groups of oriental medicine related persons, the group of which are Students of 11 Oriental Medical Schools, Oriental Medical Physicians in Public Health Sector, Specialist Croup of Oriental medicine Policy(total 1,458 persons). Data were collected from July 1st to November 30, 1999. Direct interview with key persons, systematic interview by using of interview protocol, e-mail and facsimile have been conducted. The results of survey were coded by Excel 5.0, and analysed with SAS 6.12 statistical package. Inter-group difference determined by T-test, and descriptive statistics have been examined. Major findings can be epitomized as follows. 1) OMP disposition to multifarious organizations and institutes such as Public Health Centers, Public Health Sub-centers, Public Hospitals, Private Hospitals in Remote-Vulnerable Area, Community Social Welfare Centers, Institutes for Heath Policy Research, etc, will promise an effective use of Oriental Medical Physician. 2) Average number of patients treated by OMP was 22.8, average budget for oriental medical department, in which OMP were affiliated, was 39.6 million Won per year. Direct cost per every patient visit was 7,210.9 Won, which is considered expensive for public health service. Therefore, development and transformation for Oriental Medical Service in Public Health Sector is desirable in economic and political aspects. 3) It is recommended that ${\ulcorner}Advisory\;Committee{\lrcorner},{\ulcorner}Planning\;Commission\;for\; Public\;Health\;in\;Oriental\;Medicine{\lrcorner}$ should be established for the activation and for the support of Oriental Medical Physician in Public Health Sector, 4) Most effective programmes for oriental public health doctor are health service programmes for the elderly, Home health visit, chronic degenerative disease control services(p<0.001). 5) Standard guideline for facilities and equipments of Oriental Medicine Department in Public Health Center is needed for optimal supply of resources and activation of public health activity.

Using data gathered from expert opinion of plant and equipment professionals; this paper presents the key variables that may constitute a maintenance proficient plant operator. The Multivariate Discriminant Analysis (MDA) was applied to generate data and was tested for sensitivity analysis. Results showed that the MDA model was able to classify plant operators' proficiency at 94.10 percent accuracy and determined nine (9) key variables of a maintenance proficient plant operator. The key variables included: i) number of years of experience as equipment operator (PQ1); ii) eye-hand coordination (PQ9); iii) eye-hand-foot coordination (PQ10); iv) planning skills (TE16); v) pay/wage (MQ1); vi) work satisfaction (MQ4); vii) operator responsibilities as defined by management (MF1); viii) clear management policies (MF4); and ix) management pay scheme (MF5). The classification procedure of nine variables formed the general model with the equation viz: OMP (general) = 0.516PQ1 + 0.309PQ9 + 0.557PQ10 + 0.831TE16 + 0.8MQ1 + 0.0216MQ4 + 0.136MF1 + 0.28MF4 + 0.332MF5 - 4.387

A cDNA encoding a cysteine protease inhibitor (CPI) was isolated from the cDNA library of clamworm Perinereis aibuhitensis Grube. The deduced amino acid sequence analysis showed that the protein had 51%, 48%, and 48% identity with Zgc:153129 from Danio rerio, cystatin B from Theromyzon tessulatum, and the ChainA, stefin B tetramer from Homo sapiens, respectively. The gene was cloned into the intracellular expression vector pET-15b and expressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant CPI (PA-CPI) was purified by affinity chromatography on Ni-charged resin and ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sepharose FF. The relative molecular mass of PA-CPI was 16 kDa as deduced by SDS-PAGE. Activity analysis showed that the recombinant protein could inhibit the proteolytic activity of papain. A constitutive and secretive expression vector was also constructed, and the cDNA encoding CPI was subcloned into the vector for extracellular expression. Western blotting analysis results showed that the PA-CPI was secreted into the medium. Bioassay demonstrated that E. coli DH5${\alpha}$ harboring pUC18ompAcat-CPI showed a significant difference in mortality to the Asian longhorned beetle Anoplophora glabripennis compared with untransformed E. coli DH5${\alpha}$ and control.

Recent genome comparisons of E. coli B and K-12 strains have indicated that the makeup of the cell envelopes in these two strains is quite different. Therefore, we analyzed and compared the envelope proteomes of E. coli BL21(DE3) and MG1655. A total of 165 protein spots, including 62 nonredundant proteins, were unambiguously identified by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry. Of these, 43 proteins were conserved between the two strains, whereas 4 and 16 strain-specific proteins were identified only in E. coli BL21(DE3) and MG1655, respectively. Additionally, 24 proteins showed more than 2-fold differences in intensities between the B and K-12 strains. The reference envelope proteome maps showed that E. coli envelope mainly contained channel proteins and lipoproteins. Interesting proteomic observations between the two strains were as follows: (i) B produced more OmpF porin with a larger pore size than K-12, indicating an increase in the membrane permeability; (ii) B produced higher amounts of lipoproteins, which facilitates the assembly of outer membrane ${\beta}$-barrel proteins; and (iii) motility- (FliC) and chemotaxis-related proteins (CheA and CheW) were detected only in K-12, which showed that E. coli B is restricted with regard to migration under unfavorable conditions. These differences may influence the permeability and integrity of the cell envelope, showing that E. coli B may be more susceptible than K-12 to certain stress conditions. Thus, these findings suggest that E. coli K-12 and its derivatives will be more favorable strains in certain biotechnological applications, such as cell surface display or membrane engineering studies.

Purpose: Due to the many problems with commercially available vaccines, the production of effective vaccines against brucellosis is a necessity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the immune responses caused by the chimeric protein consisting of trigger factor, Bp26, and Omp31 (TBO) along with aluminum hydroxide (AH/TBO) and selenium (Se/TBO) nanoparticles (NPs) as adjuvants in mouse model. Materials and Methods: Recombinant antigen expression was induced in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) bacteria using IPTG (isopropyl-d-1-thiogalactopyranoside). Purification and characterization of recombinant protein was conducted through NiFe₃O₄ NPs, sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and Western blot. NP characteristics, including morphology and particle size, were measured in vitro. The recombinant TBO was loaded on to AH and Se NPs and were administered subcutaneously. After mice immunization, measurement of antibody titter and protection assay was performed. Results: The average sizes of AH and Se NPs were about 60 nm and 150 nm, respectively. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay results showed that the serum of mice immunized by subcutaneous injection with both nanovaccines produced significant immunoglobulin G (IgG) responses against the chimeric antigen. The results of TBO-specific IgG isotype (IgG2a/IgG1) analysis showed that both AH and Se NPs induced a type to T-helper immune response. In addition, the results of the challenge with the pathogenic strain of Brucella melitensis 16M showed that vaccinated mice with AH/TBO NPs indicated a higher reduction of bacterial culture than immunized mice with Se/TBO NPs and TBO alone. Conclusion: The results showed that AH NPs carrying chimeric antigen can be a promising vaccine candidate against brucellosis by producing protective immunity.

우리나라 유통상토에 대한 물리적 표준분석법을 설정하기 위한 연구를 실시하였다. 국내 시중에 유통되고 있는 53개 품목의 원예용 상토와 9개 품목의 수도용 상토를 대상으로 설정된 분석법을 적용하여 실험하였다. 입자밀도의 측정은 가스형 피크노메타(Micromeritics Co. Model 1305)를 사용하면 속도와 정확성 면에서 매우 유리하였다. 용적밀도는 구미에서 Sandbox법에 의한 용적밀도를 기본으로 하기 때문에 이와 유사한 성적을 얻을 수 있는 다양한 실험을 한 결과, 추다짐법(Plunger compaction method)이 가장 유의성 있는 측정 방법으로 밝혀졌다. 한편 가스형 피크노메타법에 의한 우리나라 유통상토의 입자밀도는 원예용이 1.93, 수도용이 2.43 Mg m$^{-3}$로 나타났으며, 추다짐법에 의한 용적밀도는 원예용이 0.22, 수도용이 1.01 Mg m$^{-3}$로 각각 나타났다. 수분함량은 105$^{\circ}C$ 건조기에서 16시간 건조하여 수도용상토는 (최초 무게-건조 후 무게) / (건조 후 무게) $\times$ 100으로, 원예용상토는 (최초무게 - 건조 후 무게) / (최초 무게) $\times$ 100으로 하였다. 보수력은 주로 저압용으로서 Eijkelkamp사의 Sandbox법을 사용하여 0.5, 1, 3, 5, 7, 10 ㎪의 수분장력 상태의 수분함량을 조사하였다. 포화수리전도도는 직경 5cm$\times$높이 20cm인 아크릴 원통을 이용하여 정수위별에 의한 포화수리전도도를 측정하였다. 신분석법에 의한 유통상토의 수분함량은 원예용이 평균 46.34%, 수도용이 평균 16.89%이었고 원예용 상토의 EAW는 28.4%, WBC 7.01%, OMP는 5.60 ㎪로 나타났으며, 육묘를 위한 적정 수분함량은 44.41%이었고 포화수리전도도는 1.71 cm $min^{-1}$이었다. 상토 평량시 무게를 비교한 결과 상토 부피를 달리하여도 고도의 유의성이 있었고, 상토 20cc의 평균무게는 4.92g(2.08-8.83g)이었다. 상토의 EC 측정시 상토:물의 비율이 1:2(v:v)와 1:5(v:v)분석치에 2.5배한 EC 값과는 고도의 정의 상관관계가 있었으며, 유럽법과 일본법(전농)과의 관계는 고도의 정의 상관관계가 있었다 또한 새로운 분석법(v:v 1:5)으로 측정한 EC의 평균값은 국내산 0.64, 수입산 0.33 dS m$^{-1}$이 었다. 상토의 pH 측정시 상토:물의 비율을 1:2(v:v)와 1:5(v:v)와의 관계에서는 정의 상관관계를 보였으며, 유럽법과 일본법(전농)과의 관계도 역시 고도의 정의 상관관계가 있었고, 신 분석법에(v:v 1:5) 의한 분포비율은 국내산, 수입산모두 pH 6.1-6.5의 범위에서 가장 높았다.
