This work proposes a 12b 100 MS/s $0.11{\mu}m$ CMOS three-step hybrid pipeline ADC for high-speed communication and mobile display systems requiring high resolution, low power, and small size. The first stage based on time-interleaved dual-channel SAR ADCs properly handles the Nyquist-rate input without a dedicated SHA. An input sampling clock for each SAR ADC is synchronized to a reference clock to minimize a sampling-time mismatch between the channels. Only one residue amplifier is employed and shared in the proposed ADC for the first-stage SAR ADCs as well as the MDAC of back-end pipeline stages. The shared amplifier, in particular, reduces performance degradation caused by offset and gain mismatches between two channels of the SAR ADCs. Two separate reference voltages relieve a reference disturbance due to the different operating frequencies of the front-end SAR ADCs and the back-end pipeline stages. The prototype ADC in a $0.11{\mu}m$ CMOS shows the measured DNL and INL within 0.38 LSB and 1.21 LSB, respectively. The ADC occupies an active die area of $1.34mm^2$ and consumes 25.3 mW with a maximum SNDR and SFDR of 60.2 dB and 69.5 dB, respectively, at 1.1 V and 100 MS/s.

Cu$_{0.1}$Fe$_{0.9}$Cr$_2$S$_4$ has been studied with Mossbauer spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction, vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and magnetoresistance (MR) measurement. The crystal structure was determined to be a cubic spinel with lattice parameter a$_{0}$=9.9880 $\AA$. The MR measurements show a semiconductor behavior below 110 K and metal behaved above 100 K. The temperature dependence of magnetization of Cu$_{0.1}$Fe$_{0.9}$Cr$_2$S$_4$ was reported. In addition to a large irreversibility between the zero-field-cooling (ZFC) and the field-cooling (FC) magnetization at applied field H=100 Oe, a cusp-like anomaly was observed in both the FC and ZFC curves. It shifted toward the lower temperature region with increasing magnetic field, and then showed convex type maximum at 110 K, under the applied field of 5 kOe. The Mossbauer spectra were measured from 15 K to room temperature. The asymmetric line broadening was observed for the sample Cu$_{0.1}$Fe$_{0.9}$Cr$_2$S$_4$, and it was considered to be dynamic Jahn-Teller relaxation. The charge state of Fe ions was ferrous in character. The unusual reduction of magnetic hyperfine field below 110 K was interpreted in terms of cancellation effect between the mutually opposite orbital current field (H$_{L}$) and Fermi contact field (H$_{C}$).

HK shiitake mushroom mycelium (HKSMM), containing 14% β-glucan, is a health functional food ingredient approved individually for liver health by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety. The immune-enhancing efficacy of a 50% aqueous ethanol extract of HKSMM (designated HKSMM50) was studied in Jurkat cells activated with concanavalin A (ConA). Active hexose correlated compound (AHCC) was used as a positive control. ConA-activated Jurkat cells were treated with HKSMM50 (0, 25, 50, 100 ㎍ g/ml) or AHCC (100 ㎍ g/ml), and cultured for 3 and 6 hours. The nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) protein content in the cytosol and the nucleus was measured by Western blotting. Interleukin-2 (IL-2), interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits. HKSMM50 lowered NFAT content in the cytosol, but elevated NFAT content in the nucleus. The IL-2 and IFN-γ productions were elevated. Meanwhile, both COX-2 activity and apoptosis were suppressed. The efficacy of the AHCC treatment showed similar to those of HKSMM50 treatments. These results indicate that the HKSMM50 exhibited immune-enhancing effects in ConA-treated Jurkat cells by activation of NFAT protein, and suggest that HKSMM could be used as a health functional food ingredient to improve immune functions in humans.

In general, a lot of small electrode is needed for making precision injection molds, such as cell phone mold and precision connector mold, because of the limitations of NC milling process. Those small electrodes usually have very simple shapes and the actual cutting time is so short, but many NC programs and set-up process, a very complicated and time consuming Job, are needed for each electrode. This paper deals the method for increasing the productivity of machining electrodes. In this work, the process standardization of machining electrode was done and special jig fer machining small electrodes was developed. Automatic tool path optimization software was also developed to minimize tool changing time. In addition, in-line cutting tool measuring system was adopted. The productivity of machining for small electrode has been increased up to $100\%$.

Antineoplastic agents may exhibit effects not only in patients therapeutically exposed, but also in health workers who prepare and administer these drugs. This study was done to clarify whether nurses who handle anticancer drugs show signs of drug absorption. The experimental group was 14 nurses handling anticancer drugs at three medical wards of a hospital in J city ; the control group was 12 psychiatric nurses at the same hospital. The test materials were the nurses' 24hr urine specimens, which were concentrated by XAD-2 column chromatograpy. Tester strains were TA98(±S9mix), TA100(±S9 mix), TA1535(±S9 mix) and TA1537(±S9 mix) : the salmonella mammalian microsomal test (Ames test) was used for the urinary mutagenicity assay. The results are summarized as follow : 1. In qualitative analysis of the results, both experimental group and control group showed 15.4% urine toxicity. 2. The experimental group revealed significantly higher urinary mutagenicity both in the activation method test and non-activation method test of the tester strains TA98, TA100 and TA1535. In the case of TA1537, the two groups showed no difference in the non-activation method test, but the activation method revealed a difference. 3. In urinary mutagenicity of the experimental group by ward career, there was a significant difference between the group with more than 20 months experience and the group with less than 20 months on the tester strains TA98, TA100, and TA1537. No Significant difference was found between two groups by the tester strain TA1535.

A high concentration of myo-Inositol in rat's milk was observed (61-91mg. of myo-Inositol per 100g of milk) by gas-liquid chromatographic method, using a 3% SE-52 column. Feeding experiments showed that approximately 85% of myo-Inositol in milk was from dietary origin: the rest was considered to be synthesized by 1L-myo-Inositol-1-phosphate lyase. Results suggested that the biosynthesis was not sufficiently high to permit the maintenance of its myo-Inositol level in milk. However, study $using(^{14}C)-glucose$ injection into lactating female rats confirmed biosynthesis of myo-Inositol from glucose in mammary gland. This biosynthesis reached a maximum within an hour after $(^{14}C)-glucose$ injection intraperitoneally as lactose biosynthesis did. Study using $(^3H)-myo-Inositol$ confirmed that most of the myo-Inositol in milk was transported from blood plasma myo-Inositol against a concentration gradient. About four hours after the beginning of the injection of $(^{14}C)-glucose$, the specific radioactivity of myo-Inositol in milk was 8% of that of glucose in the blood. When $(^3H)-myo-Inositol$ was injected, the specific radioactivity of myo-Inositol in milk was about 26% of that of blood six hours after injection.

척수에서의 통각전달은 말초에서 전달되는 통각정보가 척수내의 척수세포에 전달되면서 시작된다. 척수에 전달된 유해자극 정보는 척수내의 이차감각세포를 통하여 시상으로 전달되고 이로 인해 통증을 느끼게 된다. 이러한 척수내의 세포는 연수등의 여러 부위에 존재하는 신경 세포에 의하여 억제를 받으며 이와 같은 하향성 억제는 뇌에 존재하는 내재진 통계를 설명하는 중요한 인자가 되고 있다. 본 실험은 하부연수에 위치하는 신경핵인 Lateral reticular nucleus가 이러한 하향성 억제를 가졌는가를 알아 보고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 고양이를 마취시키고 척수궁을 절제하여 척수를 노출시키고 미세전극을 꽂아 척수세포의 활성을 기록하였다. 여덟마리의 고양이에서 31개의 척수세포를 기록하였다. 이 세포들 중 WDR세포가 14 (45%), HT가 9 (29%), LT 및 Deep세포가 각각 4 (13%)가 되었다. 이 척수세포에 북외측하부 연수인 lateral reticualr nucleus 주위를 건기자극하면 21개 (68%)의 세포가활성의 억제를 받았고 9개의 (29%) 세포는 아무런 변화가 없었고 1개의 (3%) 세포는 흥분되었다. 전기의 자극은 강도 100$\mu$A이며 자극길이는 100$\mu$S 그리고 100Hz의 주파수를 가진 펄스파였다. 이와같은 북외측하부연수의 전기자국은 신경세포의 자발활성뿐 아니라 수용장 자극에 의한 반응도 억제하였다.

The effects of isoproterenol, a sympathomimetic amine, on the mast cells in the oral mucosa were cytochemically studied in twenty four healthy male albino rats weighing approximately 100gm. seven groups of three each were injected intraperitoneally, as a single dose of 8mg/100gm. body wt., (dissolved in 0.9% saline 0.2㎖). Each groups were sacrificed following ether anesthesia at he time indicated, 1. 2. 3. 5. 7. 10. 14days after only a single injection. One normal group is not administered with any substances. The sections of oral mucosa were stained with 0.005% toluidine blue (Mowry's method) and alcian blue (pH 2.5). We found that isoproterenol made an initial decrease in the metachromasia and alcian blue affinity, and the number of mast cell, followed by an subsequent return to normal.
