Theoretical analyses have been tried to design high power and stable operating SLD at 1.55${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ wavelength range which is the lowest absorption wavelength in optical fiber. The materials of active layer and SCH layer were chosen as conventional In1-xGaxAsyPl-y quaternary composition systems. From the transverse mode and the lateral mode analyses of waveguide, the optical power distributions and the optical confinement factor have been studied for single-mode high power operation. According to these analyses, it was calculated the composition and the thickness of SCH layer to obtain the maximum optical confinement factor. In order to obtain low values of the reflectivity, we used the window region and the lateral tilted angle between tile active region and window region. And the reflectivity of SLD was calculated with the gaussian beam approximation and mode analysis. From these researches, it was confirmed for several results to fabricate the efficient and stable SLD. In case of using $1.3\mum$, InGaAsP SCH layer, the layer thickness was obtained $0.08\mum$, to get the maximum optical confinement factor. Using $0.2\mum$, active layer thickness and $0.08\mum$, SCH layer thickness, the window region length is about $100\mum$ without An coating, $10\mum$ in 1% AR coating to obtain about 10-4 reflectivity. When the tilted angle is about $10~15^{\circ}$, the reflectivity is about 10-3. From these results, if the window region length and tilted angle were controlled appropriately in given device structure, it was confirmed that it is possible to fabricate the stable SLD without AR coating analytically.

Microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) is systemic small vessel vasculitis that is very rare in childhood. MPA is characterized by pauci-immune necrotizing small vessel vasculitis without clinical or pathological evidence of necrotizing granulomatous inflammation. Approximately 90% of patients have glomerulonephritis that is accompanied by a variety of other organ involvement. A 10-year-old girl visited our clinic with clinical manifestations suggestive Henoch-Sch$\ddot{o}$nlein purpura nephritis such as purpuric skin rash, abdominal pain, arthralgia on both knees, massive proteinuria and microscopic hematuria. So initially we suspected Henoch-Sch$\ddot{o}$nlein purpura nephritis. However, later her perinuclear-antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies(p-ANCA) test was positive, and her renal biopsy was consistent with microscopic polyangiitis. We began steroid therapy, combined with cyclophosphamide, ACE inhibitor. Currently she is a 12-year old, and until now she has been regularly examined in the outpatient. We report a case of microscopic polyangiitis initially suspected with Henoch-Sch$\ddot{o}$nlein purpura nephritis.

Acridine was not a substrate for fungal laccase but it was oxidized to acridone in the culture medium of P. cinnabarinus SCH-3. During the cultivation of P. cinnabarinus SCH-3, Laccase was the predominant extracellular phenoloxidase, and 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid (3-HAA) was produced in the early culture. Cinnabarinic acid (CA) was observed to accumulate in the culture medium. When P. cinnabarinus was grown in the culture medium containing acridine, acridine was oxidized to acridone. But when the laccase purified from the culture medium of P. cinnabarinus directly reacted with acridine in sodium tartrate buffer (pH 3.0), The oxidation of acridine did not happen. In contrast, when 3-HAA was added to the buffer that was mixed with laccase and acridine, the acridine was oxidized to acridone. While in vitro studies, the CA was formed from 3-HAA in the presence of purified laccase. The results suggest that the acridine should be oxidized to the acridone through the mediation of 3-HAA by the laccase in the culture medium of P. cinnabarinus SCH-3.

In a SCH(separate confinement heterostructure) QW(quantum well) laser, we calculated the optical gain, the differential gain and recombination current in the QW and derived the bulk carrier density in the SCH region as a function of the QW current by using the analytical capture escape model. Based upon above relations, we found the optical gain and the differential gain correspond to the ratios of carrier and current injected into the QW.

The author experienced a case of $Henoch-Sch\"{o}nlein$ purpura with epididymitis in a 6-year-old boy who was admitted to our hospital due to left scrotal pain and the relapse of purpura on lower extremities for 3 days. Scrotal ultrasonography on admission revealed homogenously enlarged left epididymal head and small amount of fluid collection in left tunical space. The size of left epididymal head decreased gradually with no more evidence of fluid collection on day 7 and recovered completely on day 21. The author reports a case of $Henoch-Sch\"{o}nlein$ purpura with epididymitis with brief review of related literatures.

The incidence of nephritis associated with Henoch-Sch nlein purpura varies, but glomerulonephritis consistently accounts for most of the associated morbidity and mortality. A very small number of Henoch-Sch nlein purpura develop rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis. A three-year old male patient who showed acute nephritic nephrotic syndrome developed abdominal pain, arthralgia and multiple purpurae on lower extremities later. Peritoneal dialysis was done at the 6th hospital day and continued for 7 months. Renal biopsy disclosed crescentic glomerulonephritis (with 81% crescent formation) and methylprednisolone pulse therapy was done. These days, his general condition is good, but serum creatinine levels are 1.2-1.3 mg/dL. This case was reviewed briefly with the literatures.

Bioflavonoids are semi-essential food components that are ubiquitously present in nature. It has been reported that flavonoids act as anti-oxidant as well as anti-cancer agents. Quercetin is one of the most widely distributed bioflavonoids in the plant kingdom. The goal of this study was to investigate effects of quercetin analogs extracted from Lindera erythrocarpa, quercetin 3-O-${\alpha}$-arabinofuranoside and quercetin 3-O-${\alpha}$-L -rhamnoside, on oxidatie stress-induced cell death.

The gene encoding glucoamylase from Schwanniomyces cagtellii CBS 2863 was cloned and expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Southern blot analysis confirmed that this glucoamylase gene was derived from the genomic DNA of Schwanniomyces ccastellii and that no DNA fragments corresponding to 5.1 or 1.3 kb of Sch. casteltii DNA were detected in S. cereuisiae. The glucoamylase activity from S. cerevisiae transformant was approximately 2,000 times less than that of donor yeast. No expression was found in E. coti. The secreted glucoamylase from S. cerevisiae transformant was indistinguishable from that of Sch. eastellii on the basis of molecular weight and enzyme properties.
