The genes for ribosomal RNA in Rhizobium meliloti and Bradyrhizobium japonicum were analyzed by southern hybridization of BamHI, EcoRI, HindIII digested chromosomal DNA with purified 5' $^{32}P$-labeled 16S and 23S rRNA. The big differences in the hybridization pattern of both rhizobia were found. The comparative results were discussed in relation to the copy number and conservativity of restriction sites in the rRNA genes of both rhizobia.

As international commerce pattern changes toward the system of developed countries market competition, developing countries experience difficulties in international commerce market. Developed countries request their trading counterparts to obtain environment restriction. We also endure the environmental pollution due to industrialization. These environmental problems force Western Europe countries to install Environment Management System. This article presents description of development processes of ISO 14000 draft, compares ISO 9000 with 7750 requirements, and describes the common points and differences between ISO 9000 and 14000 draft.

We become an industry information society which is advanced to the altitude with the today. The information to be loading various goods each other together at a circumstance environment is increasing extremely. The restriction recognizes the data of many Quantity and it follows because the human deals the task to classify. The development of a mathematical formulation for solving a problem like this is often very difficult. But Artificial intelligent systems such as neural networks have been successfully applied to solving complex problems in the area of pattern recognition and classification. So, in this paper a neural network approach is used to recognize and classification problem was broken into two steps. The first step consist of using a neural network to recognize the existence of purpose pattern. The second step consist of a neural network to classify the kind of the first step pattern. The neural network leaning algorithm is to use error back-propagation algorithm and to find the weight and the bias of optimum. Finally two step simulation are presented showing the efficacy of using neural networks for purpose recognition and classification.

초음파센서는 저렴성, 단순한 구조, 기계적 강인성, 사용상의 적은 제약 등의 이점 때문에 다양한 응용분야에 적용된다. 물체의 인식에 초음파센서를 사용하기에는 낮은 분해능을 초래하는 불량한 방향성과 측정오류를 유발하는 반사성의 어려움을 내재하고 있다. 이런 문제를 개선하기 위해서 다양한 센서의 배열형태에서 많은 수의 센서를 사용하거나, 일정 수의 센서를 사용할 경우에는 센서의 배열을 기계적으로 이동시킨다. 본 논문에서는 물체의 패턴인식에 있어서 가장 기본적인 거리, 물체크기, 물체각도 값을 얻기 위해 간단하게 구성된 전자회로를 부가하여 초음파센서의 송출전압을 여러 단계로 변경시켜 얻어낸 데이터에 뉴로퍼지 기반의 지능적 계산 알고리즘을 적용하여 개선된 결과를 얻는다.

Circadian rhythmicity (e.g. secretory pattern of hormones) plays an important role in the control of reproductive function. We hypothesized that the alteration of feeding pattern via meal time shift/restriction might disrupt circadian rhythms in energy balance, and induce changes in reproductive activities. To test this hypothesis, we employed simple animal model that not allowing $ad$ $libitum$ feeding but daytime only feeding. The animals of $ad$ $libitum$ feeding group (Control) have free access to food for 4 weeks. The day feeding (=reverse feeding, RF) animals (RF group) have restricted access to food during daytime (0900-1800) for 4 weeks. After completing the feeding schedules, body weights, testis and epididymis weights of animals from both group were not significantly different. However, the weights of seminal vesicle (control : RF group = $0.233{\pm}0.014g$ : $0.188{\pm}0.009g$, $p$<0.01) and prostate (control : RF group = $0.358{\pm}0.015g$ : $0.259{\pm}0.015g$, $p$<0.001) were significantly lower in RF group animals. The mRNA levels of pituitary common alpha subunit ($C{\alpha}$; control : RF group = $1.0{\pm}0.0699$ AU : $0.1923{\pm}0.0270$ AU, $p$<0.001) and $FSH{\beta}$ (control : RF group = $1.0{\pm}0.1489$ AU : $0.5237{\pm}0.1088$ AU, $p$<0.05) were significantly decreased in RF group. The mRNA levels of ACTH were not significantly different. We were unable to find any prominent difference in the microstructures of epididymis, and there were slight alterations in those of seminal vesicles after 4 weeks of reversed feeding when compared to control samples. The present study demonstrates that the shift and/or restriction of feeding time could alter the pituitary gonadotropin expression and the weights of seminal vesicle and prostate in rats. These data suggest the lowered gonadotropin inputs may decrease androgen secretion form testis, and consequently results in poor response of androgen-dependent tissues such as seminal vesicle and prostate.

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the sixth most common malignancy worldwide. The molecular mechanisms involved in the development and progression of these carcinomas are not well known. Abnormalities of genomic methylation patterns have been attributed a role in carcinogenesis and local de novo methylation at tumor suppressor loci was held to be involved in silencing of tumor suppressor genes. Using Ms APPCR, we previously isolated a hypermethylated fragment corresponded to the 5' end of TPEF gene from primary liver and lung cancer cells. To confirm the inactivation of TPEF gene by hypermethylation in HNSCC, we investigated correlation between methylation pattern and expression of TPEF in 10 HNSCC cell lines. In methylation analysis such as combined-bisulfite restriction analysis(COBRA) and bisulfite sequencing, only RPMI 2650 showed none methylated pattern and another 9 cell lines showed dense methylation. The TPEF gene expression level analysis using RT-PCR showed that these 9 cell lines had not or significantly low expression levels of TPEF as compared with RPMI 2650. In addition, the increase of TPEF reexpression by 5-AzaC as demethylating agent in 9 cell lines also indicated that TPEF expression was regulated by hypermethylation. These results of this study demonstrate that epigenetic silencing of TPEF gene by aberrant methylation could play an important role in HNSCC carcinogenesis.

Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) typing was applied to the epidemiological investigation of 21 Candida tropicalis isolates collected from urine specimens of 11 patients and one healthcare worker, in an intensive care unit (ICU) over a 4-month period. Seventeen epidemiologically unrelated strains from 14 patients were also tested to determine the discriminatory power of PFGE. PFGE typing consisted of electrophoretic karyotyping (EK) and restriction endonuclease analysis of genomic DNA (REAG), using two restriction enzymes (BssHII and SfiI). The EK pattern was the same in all 38 isolates, while REAG using SfiI separated the isolates into nine types. However, 16 different PFGE types were iden-tified by REAG with BssHII, and the same results were obtained when the results of both REAG tests were combined. In serial urinary isolates from 10 patients, all strains from each patient had the same PFGE pattern. While the epidemiologically unrelated strains from 14 patients consisted of 13 different PFGE types, the 20 isolates from the 11 ICU patients fell into only two PFGE types (types Cl and C2), and these apparently originated from the two different outbreaks. All strains of type Cl (n = 12) were isolated from six patients, between November 1999 and January 2000, and all of the type C2 strains (n=8) were isolated from five patients, during January and February 2000. This study shows two con-secutive clusters of C. tropicalis candiduria in an ICU, defined by PFGE typing, and also demonstrates that a PFGE typing method using BssHII is perhaps the most useful method for investigating C. tropi-calis candiduria.

이 실아메바(Entamoeba histoIytica)와 동형 아메바(Entamoebc dispar. 동형아메바)의 포낭은 형태학적으로 구분이 안되어 종 감별에 관하여 논란이 있어 왔다. 최근에 이 둘이 별종이며 특히 이질아메바는 병원성이고 동형아메바는 비병윈성입이 확인퇴어 그 감별이 중요한 의미를 갖게 피었나 이 연구에서는 우리 나라의 아메바 분리체를 중합효소 반응과 제한효소 반응을 이용하여 두 종으로 감별하였다. 1994-1995년에 대변을 통강의 방법으로 검색하여 포낭이나 영양형이 발견된 검체를 로빈슨 배지에서 배양하고 배양된 영양형에서 DNA를 분리하였다. PI 유전자 염기서열 중에서 시발페(primer)를 만득어 중합효소 반응으로 482 bp 크기의 산물을 얹고 이를 제한효소(Tuq I, Xmn I, Acc I)로 처리하였다. 또한 Xmn I과 Acc I 제한 효소의 특이 염기서열온 고함하는 시발체를 제작하여 따로 중합효소 반응을 시행하였다. 그 결과 13개 분리체 중에서 S9, S12, YS-6, YS-27의 482 bp 산물은 Taq I과 Xmn I 의하여 그 외의 분리체 산물은 Acc I에 의하여 절단되었다. 이 결과는 특이 염기서열 시발체의 중합효소 반응에서 얻은 산물과 일치하였다, 이 결과에 의하여 분리체 S9, S12, YS-6는 대장염 창자에서. YS-27은 간농양 환자에서 분리한 병원성의 이질아메바(E. histolytica)이고 분리체 S1, S3, S11, S15, S16, S17, S20, YS-17, YS-44는 부증상의 포낭배출자에서 얻은 비병원성의 동형아메바(E. nispur)로 구별할 수 있었다. S1은 설사 환자에서 얻은 분리체 이지탄 동형아메바임을 확인하였고 따라서 이 환자의 설사는 다른 원인에 의한 것으로 판단 된다. 이로써 비병원성인 동형아메바가 우리 나라에서도 병원성 이질아메바보다 더 흔하게 존재한다는 것을 처음으로 기록하며 E. dispar의 우리 말 이름을 동형아메바로 제안한다.

Since culture of Helicobacter pylori is relatively insensitive and cumbersome, molecular detection and typing of H. pylori isolates are gaining importance for strain differentiation. In the present study genomic DNA of 42 gastric biopsies and H. pylori isolates from corresponding patients were analyzed and compared by PCR-based RFLP assay. The 1,132-bp product representing an internal portion of ureC gene of H. pylori was amplified by PCR and digested with restriction enzymes HindⅢ, AiuⅠ and PvuⅠ. The HindⅢ, AluⅠ and PvuⅠ digestion produced 4, 7, and 2 distinguishable RFLP patterns respectively from 42-H. pylori isolates. By combining all three restriction enzyme digestions, 15 RFLP patterns were observed. However, when PCR products from 42 gastric biopsy specimens were digested by restriction enzymes HindⅢ, AluⅠ and PvuⅠ, we observed 5, 8 and 2 RFLP patterns, respectively. Patterns from 34 of 42 gastric biopsy specimens matched those of corresponding H. pylori isolates from respective patients. Patterns from the remaining eight biopsy specimens differed and appeared to represent infection with two H. pylori strains. The patterns of one strain from each of these biopsies was identical to that of the isolate from corresponding patients and the second pattern presumably represented the co-infecting strain. From the study, it appears that PCR-based RFLP analysis is a useful primary tool to detect and is distinguish H. pylori strains from gastric biopsy specimens and is superior to culture techniques in the diagnosis of infection with multiple strains of H. pylori.
