남해지역의 원원종 종서 생산 포장에서 '추백' 품종에 나타난 엽맥투명 및 매우 약한 모자이크 증상을 나타내는 감자 잎에서 담배 모자이크 바이러스(TMV)를 분리하였다. 이 바이러스((TMV-St))는 생물학적, 혈청학적 유연관계 및 외피단백질의 염기서열 등을 통해 기존에 보고된 다른 tobamovires와 비교하였다. TMV-St는 5개의 지표식물 반응에서 토마토, 고추, 가지 등과 같은 가지과 작물에 경제적 피해를 주고 있는 TMV-U1, Pepper mild mottle virus(PMMoV) 및 Tomato mosaic virus(ToMV)와는 다른 기주 반응을 보였다. 특히 즙액접종에 의한 기주의 반응은 C.murale 접종엽과 상엽 모두에서 퇴록반점을 보였으며, C. murale, G. globosa, N.rustica 그리고 N. tabacum ce. Samsun nn 등 4가지 지표식물로 이들 바이러스 계통을 구분할 수 있었다. 혈청학적 검정에서 TMV-St는 TMV-U1, PMMoV 그리고 ToMV와의 반응에서 도두 뚜렷한 침강선을 형성하였다. TMV-St의 외피단백질은 477개의 염기서열로 되어 있으며, 이는 TMV-U1의 염기서열과 매우 유사하였다.

Metabolic engineering is now a well established discipline, used extensively to determine and execute rational strategies of strain development to improve the performance of micro-organisms employed in industrial fermentations. The basic principle of this approach is that performance of the microbial catalyst should be adequately characterised metabolically so as to clearlyidentify the metabolic network constraints, thereby identifying the most probable targets for genetic engineering and the extent to which improvements can be realistically achieved. In order to harness correctly this potential, it is clear that the physiological analysis of each strain studied needs to be undertaken under conditions as close as possible to the physico-chemical environment in which the strain evolves within the full-scale process. Furthermore, this analysis needs to be undertaken throughoutthe entire fermentation so as to take into account the changing environment in an essentially dynamic situation in which metabolic stress is accentuated by the microbial activity itself, leading to increasingly important stress response at a metabolic level. All too often these industrial fermentation constraints are overlooked, leading to identification of targets whose validity within the industrial context is at best limited. Thus the conceptual error is linked to experimental design rather than inadequate methodology. New tools are becoming available which open up new possibilities in metabolic engineering and the characterisation of complex metabolic networks. Traditionally metabolic analysis was targeted towards pre-identified genes and their corresponding enzymatic activities within pre-selected metabolic pathways. Those pathways not included at the onset were intrinsically removed from the network giving a fundamentally localised vision of pathway functionality. New tools from genome research extend this reductive approach so as to include the global characteristics of a given biological model which can now be seen as an integrated functional unit rather than a specific sub-group of biochemical reactions, thereby facilitating the resolution of complexnetworks whose exact composition cannot be estimated at the onset. This global overview of whole cell physiology enables new targets to be identified which would classically not have been suspected previously. Of course, as with all powerful analytical tools, post-genomic technology must be used carefully so as to avoid expensive errors. This is not always the case and the data obtained need to be examined carefully to avoid embarking on the study of artefacts due to poor understanding of cell biology. These basic developments and the underlying concepts will be illustrated with examples from the author's laboratory concerning the industrial production of commodity chemicals using a number of industrially important bacteria. The different levels of possibleinvestigation and the extent to which the data can be extrapolated will be highlighted together with the extent to which realistic yield targets can be attained. Genetic engineering strategies and the performance of the resulting strains will be examined within the context of the prevailing experimental conditions encountered in the industrial fermentor. Examples used will include the production of amino acids, vitamins and polysaccharides. In each case metabolic constraints can be identified and the extent to which performance can be enhanced predicted

HL-60세포에서 Toxoplasma gondii의 in vitro배양과 HL-60세포를 DMSO로 처리하여 과립세포로 분화시킨 세포에서 Toxoplasma에 대한 세포매개성 면역 기능을 검토하였다. 먼저, HL-60 세포를 여러 농도의 DMSO로 처리하였는데, 1.3%(V/V)로 3일간 처리하였을 때, HL-60 세포 의 적정 분화가 이루어졌다. 분화의 정도는 형태적, 생리적, 및 기능적 관점에서 검사되었는데, DMSO를 처리한 경우, 3H-thymidine의 흡입이 감소하는 것으로 보아 DNA 합성이 억제됨을 알 수 있었으며, 기능적으로는 주화성 물질인 FMLP에 대해 이동하는 성질을 보였으며, 형태적으로는 핵1세포질의 비가 큰 promyelocyte에서 작은 비를 갖는 과립 세포로 변화하여 분화를 입증하였다. 이후, HL-60 세포나 DMSO로 분화를 유도한 HL-60 세포와 Toxoplasma를 같이 배양하면서 이들의 관계를 관찰하였다. Lysosome에 선택적으로 흡입되는 형광 물질(acridine orange)로 전처리한 표본은 형광현미경하에 서 관찰하였으며, 다른 표본은 Giemsa로 염색하여 광학 현미경하에서 관찰하여 비교하였다. HL-60 세포에서는 72시간의 배양으로 Toxoplasma가 세포질내에서 증식하여 rosette를 형성하였으며, DMSO로 분화시킨 HL-60 세 포에서는 배양 초기 1시간째에 phagocytosis가 일어났으며 이후 세포내 소화가 이루어져 72시간째에는 lysosome이 원상태로 되돌아오는 것이 관찰되었다. 이상의 결과들로 볼 때, Toxoplnsma의 숙주 세포내에서의 기생 혹은 면역 세포에 의한 감수성에 phagosome 과 Iysosome의 융합이 결정적인 인자임을 알 수 있었으며, 아울러 HL-60 세포에서의 Toxoplasma의 증식 가능성과 DMSO로 분화시킨 HL-60 세포의 Toxoplasma 파괴 효과가 원충 기생충과 숙주의 상호 관계를 규명하는 좋은 모델임을 제시하였다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to analyse research trends related to the evaluation of quality of nursing, thereby obtaining basic data relating to the identification of current situation of instrument development of quality of nursing, and of future research orientation and to the development of performance index of nursing organization. Method: The data were collected from June to December, 2002 through the review of total of 32 research papers which had evaluated quality of nursing among published papers in Korea from 1976 to August 2002. The analysis was done in terms of research period, the periodicals in which research papers were published, domains and the approaches of evaluation of nursing quality. The content analysis of lowest-level items amounting was performed using NIC developed by McCloskey & Bulecheck(1998) and consequential indices of quality of nursing developed by Chi(1995). Results: Twenty-three of 32 papers(71.8%) turned out to be published after 1995, indicating surging interest in the evaluation of quality of nursing from the mid 1990s. Also, ten of 12 research papers dealing with subjects' diseases were published after 1995. In content analysis of lowest-level items of the process-oriented evaluation of quality of nursing, the highest nursing intervention was patient education about procedure and treatment; followed in descending order by patient education about disease process, strengthening of communication, managing environment, infection control, admission care, defecation and urination care. In content analysis of lowest-level items of the outcome-oriented evaluation of quality of nursing, items of physical and psychological state, of patient and family satisfaction, of knowledge and home care, of change of patients' state, of addressing nursing issues, and of patient recovery were the outcome indicators in more than 60 percent research papers. Conclusion: The findings provided the foundation for their effective use in nursing practice with comparing and presenting various core evaluation items representing process and outcome domains.

Many researchers are interested in the synthesis and characterization of carbon nitride and diamond-like carbon (DLq because they show excellent mechanical properties such as low friction and high wear resistance and excellent electrical properties such as controllable electical resistivity and good field electron emission. We have deposited amorphous carbon nitride (a-C:N) thin films and DLC thin films by shielded arc ion plating (SAIP) and evaluated the structural and tribological properties. The application of appropriate negative bias on substrates is effective to increase the film hardness and wear resistance. This paper reports on the deposition and tribological OLC films in relation to the substrate bias voltage (Vs). films are compared with those of the OLC films. A high purity sintered graphite target was mounted on a cathode as a carbon source. Nitrogen or argon was introduced into a deposition chamber through each mass flow controller. After the initiation of an arc plasma at 60 A and 1 Pa, the target surface was heated and evaporated by the plasma. Carbon atoms and clusters evaporated from the target were ionized partially and reacted with activated nitrogen species, and a carbon nitride film was deposited onto a Si (100) substrate when we used nitrogen as a reactant gas. The surface of the growing film also reacted with activated nitrogen species. Carbon macropartic1es (0.1 -100 maicro-m) evaporated from the target at the same time were not ionized and did not react fully with nitrogen species. These macroparticles interfered with the formation of the carbon nitride film. Therefore we set a shielding plate made of stainless steel between the target and the substrate to trap the macropartic1es. This shielding method is very effective to prepare smooth a-CN films. We, therefore, call this method "shielded arc ion plating (SAIP)". For the deposition of DLC films we used argon instead of nitrogen. Films of about 150 nm in thickness were deposited onto Si substrates. Their structures, chemical compositions and chemical bonding states were analyzed by using X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and infrared spectroscopy. Hardness of the films was measured with a nanointender interfaced with an atomic force microscope (AFM). A Berkovich-type diamond tip whose radius was less than 100 nm was used for the measurement. A force-displacement curve of each film was measured at a peak load force of 250 maicro-N. Load, hold and unload times for each indentation were 2.5, 0 and 2.5 s, respectively. Hardness of each film was determined from five force-displacement curves. Wear resistance of the films was analyzed as follows. First, each film surface was scanned with the diamond tip at a constant load force of 20 maicro-N. The tip scanning was repeated 30 times in a 1 urn-square region with 512 lines at a scanning rate of 2 um/ s. After this tip-scanning, the film surface was observed in the AFM mode at a constant force of 5 maicro-N with the same Berkovich-type tip. The hardness of a-CN films was less dependent on Vs. The hardness of the film deposited at Vs=O V in a nitrogen plasma was about 10 GPa and almost similar to that of Si. It slightly increased to 12 - 15 GPa when a bias voltage of -100 - -500 V was applied to the substrate with showing its maximum at Vs=-300 V. The film deposited at Vs=O V was least wear resistant which was consistent with its lowest hardness. The biased films became more wear resistant. Particularly the film deposited at Vs=-300 V showed remarkable wear resistance. Its wear depth was too shallow to be measured with AFM. On the other hand, the DLC film, deposited at Vs=-l00 V in an argon plasma, whose hardness was 35 GPa was obviously worn under the same wear test conditions. The a-C:N films show higher wear resistance than DLC films and are useful for wear resistant coatings on various mechanical and electronic parts.nic parts.
